Описание:
Garrand M deville has become the trusted protector of 37 giant pandas genetically engineered to see the future in their dreams.
Trapped between Imperial saboteurs and marauding Gambor, Garrand attacked an Imperial Battle Frigate in a desperate attempt to scavenge spare parts for his ship. The ensuing battle took its toll: betrayed by his lover, Garrand lost all but two of the pandas to Imperial forces before he fought his way back to freedom.
Vice Proctor Hellius Barrett now plans to use the creatures' prophetic powers to launch a devastating war campaign. But first he must convince the tribe that he is the natural heir to their legacy, and that only he can keep them safe. If he cannot sway the Elders to his side, then he will reverse engineer the genetic process, sacrificing the pandas one by one until he is able to replicate the procedure.
Captain of the Imperial Guard Vailetta Strom's secret identity as the Emperor's illegitimate daughter has been well hidden for her entire life, but now she will be placed in charge of precognitive creatures that could bring down her father's empire. Together with Assassin Torg, she must navigate Lord Barrett's traitorous court and determine where her ultimate loyalties lie.
Reeling from their losses, Garrand and Sid Panda must learn to unravel the mysteries of the pandas' lyrical dreams-visions that they begin to translate into epic poetry-and discover a way to save the tribe before a billion souls are butchered under Lord Barrett's command.

Описание: This volume is a collection of essays on the early creeds by John Nevin and Philip Schaff, the two principal representatives of the Mercersburg Theology that was birthed in nineteenth-century Pennsylvania. It also contains a critical response by John Proudfit, a more traditionally scholastic Calvinist. In these essays Nevin and Schaff argued that the early creeds provide an indispensable lens through which the Bible should be interpreted and an essential bond to preserve the unity of the church through the centuries. According to these Mercersburg theologians the liturgical and confessional use of the early creeds is crucial for shaping the identity of Christians and mediating the life of Christ to believers. Nevin and Schaff's enthusiasm for the creeds was a function of their understanding of Christianity as an evolving tradition, the Christian life as growth in Christ-likeness, the church as the nurturing body of Christ, and the sacraments as conduits of Christ's vivifying personhood. These convictions stood in sharp contrast to the a-creedal sensibilities of most nineteenth-century American Protestants who emphasized the sufficiency of Scripture alone, the church as a gathered community of like-minded individuals, dramatic conversion experiences, and the direct presence of Christ to the individual soul.

Описание:
The 37 giant pandas of the Tchelakov Tribe have been genetically engineered to become living probability engines-intuitive machines able to forecast the future through dream manipulation.
The pandas are torn by two competing visions of the future. On one Path they become the indestructible visionary tools of a tyrannical warlord who plans to use their prophetic powers to bend a thousand star systems to his will through fear and destruction. On the other Path, a man will arrive to rescue them, a man they have come to love and trust. A man they know as the Griffin.
Garrand M deville gained the tribe's respect as he battled Imperial Shock Troops on El-Bouteran and defeated the giant beetles of Galzeki above Eemon Nores. Now the crew of Destiny's Needle must hunt down the beautiful and deadly Vailetta Strom and save her before she is branded a traitor and executed by Commander Arnas. If she takes his hand high above New Haivello, they are fated to raid the most heavily fortified planet in Carinaena's Shell.
Two fallen Guardians must defeat the Imperial Third Fleet, outwit a series of sentient doors, and do battle with the Fokathenais dragons that guard their friends.
Garrand must finally face the Empire that cast him out and defeat the most powerful man in the galaxy, aided only by wit, cunning and the dreams of a panda.

During the last half century, Southeast Asia has undergone tremendous social, political, and economic change. This volume chronicles the extensive demographic transformations that have accompanied those changes, documenting how public health and other policy interventions contributed to rapid population growth and how new patterns of settlement and migration ensued. More recently, changing opportunities for young adults have revolutionized marriage and fertility choices and raised concerns about population aging.
The authors consider the recent demographic histories of the region alongside government policies intended to manage population growth rates; improve access to education, employment, and health services; influence levels of internal and international migration; and address environmental concerns. This groundbreaking study of postcolonial Southeast Asia addresses many of the contemporary demographic challenges facing the citizens and governments of the increasingly mobile and globalized region of Southeast Asia.
