Описание: "Presents new information about the creation and construction of the Hotel Ponce de Leon, its eighty years as a luxury resort hotel, and its transformation into the centerpiece of Flagler College. Keys does an excellent job of capturing the historical, cultural, and even political themes that were part of the hotel's development and its adaptation for use as a four-year college."--William T. Abare, Jr., president, Flagler College "Keys's monumental work documenting the creation and evolution of 'The Ponce' and its role in the Florida tourist industry and as the home of Flagler College is impressive. This is an important addition to those interested in heritage tourism and historic preservation and their impact on this nation."--Ted Ligibel, co-author of Historic Preservation: An Introduction to Its History, Principles and Practices "In this richly detailed account, Keys deftly traces the metamorphosis of Hotel Ponce de Leon from exclusive hostelry to community icon to symbol of the grandest designs of a gilded age. Here is the last word on the first resort."--Les Standiford, author of Last Train to Paradise: Henry Flagler and the Spectacular Rise and Fall of the Railroad that Crossed an Ocean "Chronicles the architectural and community history of one of America's greatest buildings."--Dana Ste. Claire, author of Cracker: The Cracker Culture in Florida History
Henry Flagler's opulent Hotel Ponce de Leon drew worldwide praise from the day its elaborately carved doors opened in 1888. Built in the Spanish Renaissance Revival style, the architectural and engineering marvel featured the talents of a team of renowned artisans, including the designs of architects John Carr re, Thomas Hastings, and Bernard Maybeck, electricity by Thomas Edison, and interior decoration and stained glass windows by Louis Tiffany.
Hotel Ponce de Leon is the first work to present the building's complete history and detail its transformation into the heart of Flagler College. Leslee Keys, who assisted in the restoration, recounts the complicated construction of the hotel--the first major structure to be built entirely of poured concrete--and the efforts to preserve it and restore it to its former glory. The methods used at Flagler College have been recognized as best practices in historic preservation and decorative arts conservation, and today the campus is one of Florida's most visited heritage tourism destinations.
Leslee F. Keys is director of historic preservation and assistant professor of history at Flagler College.

A charmingly lyrical fantasy about a long line of enterprising cats. The ancestral cat hailed from Siam, the latest scion dwells in the Horners' own house, and in the intervening centuries these resourceful creatures made their adventurous way through many a land--Italy, Ireland, America, even the moon--surviving battles and pirates and hobnobbing with such as Marco Polo, Galileo, Oliver Cromwell, Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, and Charlie Chaplin. Each of them took a scientific interest in the world around them, especially the guiding stars above them.

Описание:
In Eternal Israel author Barry Horner presents a variety of biblical, theological, and historical studies that argue for the distinctive, eternal destiny of Israel. Like Horner's 2004 work Future Israel, Eternal Israel pushes back against replacement and supersessionist theology and adds further historical, exegetical, biblical and theological weight to the fundamental proposal that God has a glorious eternal destiny for Israel.
Addressing such helpful topics as Jewish evangelism, eschatology, and Islamic views of Israel, Horner presents a wealth of information that compels readers to remember that Israel holds a key role in God's plan for eternity.
Описание: Breast cancer has reached epidemic proportions in the United States. Once a relatively rare disease, it now affects 2 to 3 million women, and the incidence is going up at an alarming rate. What can we do about it? Christine Horner, M.D., has the prescription: Take healthy organic foods, add a good dose of certain supplements, get the rest and exercise we need, and avoid those things that are bad for our bodies. We each have a Warrior Goddess in us, and it's time to set her free. A pioneer who pushed through federal and state legislation ensuring that breast reconstruction after a mastectomy would be paid for by insurance companies, Dr. Horner lost her own mother to breast cancer. She decided then that her mother's death would not be in vain. Something good would come from it. This legislation was her first gift to her mother's memory, and this book is another. Useing the metaphor of the Warrior Goddess, this book explains something that Ayurveda describes as our inner healing intelligence. It also explores the various foods and supplements that can enable women to successfully fight breast cancer and claim the healthy body that should be theirs. Dr. Horner tells readers what to avoid and what to embrace, what will poison the Warrior Goddess and what will feed her and what she needs to thrive.
You might think preventing the stereotypical decline in old age requires an austere life with hours of meditation every day, along with juice fasts and yoga; or hours of rigorous exercise and a diet of lettuce, carrots, and wheat grass, along with expensive spa treatments and plastic surgery. Or you may believe that your health and longevity are programmed in your genes and there's nothing you can do about it. Board-certified plastic surgeon and expert in natural health, Dr. Christine Horner, says no matter what you were dealt in the genetic lottery--and no matter what your age--you can enjoy a long life of radiant health and ageless beauty. And it can be simple, fun, and adventurous. Using the principals of Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old system of medicine, along with the latest cutting-edge research, Dr. Horner tells you exactly what you need to avoid and what you need to embrace to experience extraordinary health and longevity. Radiant Health, Ageless Beauty sums up with Dr. Horner's 30-Day program for extraordinary health, beauty, and longevity. Each day presents a new health tip for you to implement into your life. An extensive resource section lists contacts for obtaining all the foods, supplements, products and programs that can stack all the odds in your favor of enjoying a long life and staying vibrant, strong, and happy.

Parenting isn't for wimps.
It's not just the routines, schedules, discipline, and heartaches--it's the hard conversations. One of the greatest challenges of parenting is navigating the crucial conversations that we must have with our kids.
Jimmy and Kristin Scroggins have been married for more than twenty five years and have eight children. Jimmy pastors a church in South Florida. They've had plenty of crucial conversations in their lives--not only with their own children, but with parents who are scared and seeking wisdom. They know they have to find a way to have those tough conversations from a biblical perspective and a distinctly Christian worldview, but they don't know how.
If you're like these parents, Full Circle Parenting was written for you. Using the 3 Circles gospel tool (God's design; brokenness; gospel), Jimmy and Kristin will give you a "conversation map" to work through any tough conversations you have with your children, and will show you how it works with the following topics and more:
Gender, Sexuality, and Marriage
Technology
Alcohol and Substance Abuse
Bitterness, Forgiveness, and Restoration
Friendship and Mean Kids
