Book Description
In 2005, Jose Canseco blew the lid off Major League Baseball's steroid scandal--and no one believed him. His New York Times bestselling memoir Juiced met a firestorm of criticism and outrage from the media, coaches, clubs, and players, many of whom Canseco had personally introduced to steroids--with a needle in the ass. Baseball's former golden boy, Rookie of the Year, onetime Most Valuable Player, and owner of two World Series rings was called a liar. In Vindicated, Canseco picks up where Juiced left off, revealing details even more shocking than in his controversial first book. He spills never-before-implicated names--arguably the biggest in the game of baseball--and explores the mystery of one celebrated player about whom key information was suddenly excised from Juiced at the last minute. He talks candidly about what the Mitchell Report did--and didn't--get right, why steroid use became so rampant, and how his life has changed since he tore the lid off Pandora's box.--From publisher description.

Book Description
The first lesson you will learn from this book is that it is important to record all the revelations given to you by God whether through dreams, visions, trances, audible voices or prophecies. It is also essential to record all critical events or divine encounters in your life as they unfold. Without such thorough records, it would have been impossible to write this book. The content of this book was written in less than three months, but the record keeping was from 1976 to present, with the majority of the original scripts still very much intact. That is over forty-two years of information. If you had any doubt about whether the words of Papa SBJ Oshoffa concerning his successor will ever come to pass, look no further. This book is the answer that most Celestians have been praying about for thirty three years. The evidence is overwhelming and as bright as a burst of sunshine on a hot summer day. No private interpretation is needed to understand the contents. We have the Holy Bible today because the scribes cared enough to write down, what they saw, felt, touched and experienced. Prophet Habakkuk was right: "Then the LORD answered me and said: "Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end, it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not wait." (Habakkuk 2:2-3 NKJV).The appointed time to present the whole truth to the world concerning Papa SBJO'S successor has finally arrived after thirty-three years of absolute silence. This book is not just about dreams but the FULFILLMENT of dreams, visions, and prophecies. The content of this book completely VINDICATE'S the prophetic message of the Pastor Founder. The number 38 will become very evident to you as you read this book. Papa Oshoffa started his ministry when he was thirty-eight years. He ministered to the world for thirty-eight years. He laid hands on his successor like Moses did to Joshua in the year the Church turned 38 years. On September 29th, 1985 exactly 38 years after the Church was descended, the voice of the Holy Spirit spoke to me: "The Lord is choosing you to be the head of his Church." This book is written 38 years after the initial series of revelations to me about succession to Papa SBJO: 1980 to 2018.Settle down, grab a cup of coffee, say your prayers, as we explore the contents of this amazing write-up. It is my prayer that the Holy Spirit will grant you divine illumination as you spend time with Him reading this book. Hallelujah! Hosanna! Ebenezer!

Confessions of a Video Vixen
Author: Karrine Steffans
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 006174784X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Part tell-all, part cautionary tale, this emotionally charged memoir from a former video vixen nicknamed 'Superhead' goes beyond the glamour of celebrity to reveal the inner workings of the hip-hop dancer industry—from the physical and emotional abuse that's rampant in the industry, and which marked her own life—to the excessive use of drugs, sex and bling. Once the sought-after video girl, this sexy siren has helped multi-platinum artists, such as Jay-Z, R. Kelly and LL Cool J, sell millions of albums with her sensual dancing. In a word, Karrine was H-O-T. So hot that she made as much as $2500 a day in videos and was selected by well-known film director F. Gary Gray to co-star in his film, A Man Apart, starring Vin Diesel. But the film and music video sets, swanky Hollywood and New York restaurants and trysts with the celebrities featured in the pages of People and In Touch magazines only touches the surface of Karrine Steffans' life. Her journey is filled with physical abuse, rape, drug and alcohol abuse, homelessness and single motherhood—all by the age of 26. By sharing her story, Steffans hopes to shed light on an otherwise romanticised industry and help young women avoid the same pitfalls she encountered. If they're already in danger, she hopes to inspire them to find a way to dig themselves out of what she knows first-hand to be a cycle of hopelessness and despair.

Euclid Vindicated from Every Blemish
Author: Gerolamo Saccheri
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319059661
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
This first complete English language edition of Euclides vindicatus presents a corrected and revised edition of the classical English translation of Saccheri's text by G.B. Halsted. It is complemented with a historical introduction on the geometrical environment of the time and a detailed commentary that helps to understand the aims and subtleties of the work. Euclides vindicatus, written by the Jesuit mathematician Gerolamo Saccheri, was published in Milan in 1733. In it, Saccheri attempted to reform elementary geometry in two important directions: a demonstration of the famous Parallel Postulate and the theory of proportions. Both topics were of pivotal importance in the mathematics of the time. In particular, the Parallel Postulate had escaped demonstration since the first attempts at it in the Classical Age, and several books on the topic were published in the Early Modern Age. At the same time, the theory of proportion was the most important mathematical tool of the Galilean School in its pursuit of the mathematization of nature. Saccheri's attempt to prove the Parallel Postulate is today considered the most important breakthrough in geometry in the 18th century, as he was able to develop for hundreds of pages and dozens of theorems a system in geometry that denied the truth of the postulate (in the attempt to find a contradiction). This can be regarded as the first system of non-Euclidean geometry. Its later developments by Lambert, Bolyai, Lobachevsky and Gauss eventually opened the way to contemporary geometry. Occupying a unique position in the literature of mathematical history, Euclid Vindicated from Every Blemish will be of high interest to historians of mathematics as well as historians of philosophy interested in the development of non-Euclidean geometries.
