Описание: December 2001: Vince McMahon steps out of a snowy night into a diner in upstate New York for a meeting with old friend Phil Thomson, now a highly placed government official. Thomson has a strange proposition: creating a new covert black-ops group using the Superstars of World Wrestling Entertainment. The WWE's talented men and women are perfect. Highly skilled athletes with the ideal cover, they travel all across the country and the globe; no one would find it unusual to find them in a town one day and gone the next. The government would train and support the wrestlers in every way possible except one: no one must know the truth. March 2006: The Superstars have been handed their latest assignment -- take down a commercial-grade methyl-amphetamine plant that is bankrolling terrorist activities in Europe. Their mission seems simple and straightforward, until a member of their team is taken prisoner. Now all that they've worked so hard for is in jeopardy, and one of their own might be killed...

Описание: After the death of her father, Nina Carey fulfills his last wish and struggles to bring together her three estranged brothers: Sam, a hardened cop currently on suspension, Leo, a loud-mouthed bail bondsman, and Douglas, a charming twenty-year-old thief fresh out of prison, who never even knew he had a family. Sam, Leo and Douglas are eager to inherit their father's sizable fortune, but there's a catch-- before they can claim the money, the three brothers must start a family business together. Leo becomes even more desperate for the cash when one of his bails skips town, and soon all three brothers are on the chase. They become entangled in a war with Mexican drug cartels and wind up in the hunt for a kidnapped American billionaire. Their search will take them through the strip clubs, mountains, and deserts of Mexico where they will have to learn how to work together as a family if they want to stay alive.

Описание:
A unique nugget of Latter-day Saint scripture is Facsimile 2 in the Book of Abraham. It is a picture-scripture called a hypocephalus and it is overflowing with symbolic meaning. Joseph Smith gave partial explanations of the figures and their meaning and then wrote: "The above translation is given as far as we have any right to give at the present time." Joseph knew there was more to discover He left it for later generations to uncover. The original owners knew the original meaning and could easily describe each scenes. These owners, Abrahamic-believers from Ptolemaic-era, Thebes, Egypt, intentionally obscured the meaning of the symbols to protect their pristine mysteries. The message, obscure to some, was clear to the initiated. This book, Joseph's Hypocephalus, allows the student to read the original message of Facsimile 2. The message of Facsimile 2 is the message of the Path of Souls. It describes the path a dead man takes on his journey to Heaven. Egyptologists have equated this path with the path of the sun. This is incorrect Original sources are consistent on this point. The path of the sun god, Re and the path of the dead man, Osiris, are two distinct and different paths. Facsimile 2 depicts Osiris' path, the path of the dead man. The same message painted on the hypocephalus is also enshrined in rituals and etched in the night's sky.
Hugh Nibley said the hypocephalus was only one volume in an ancient sacred library of sacred devices that all had the same purpose. This book, Joseph's Hypocephalus, points out a handful of additional volumes. Early Orphics, Hermetic groups, and an early Christian Gnostic group all had remarkable volumes in this library. One volume added to Nibley's library is from pre-Columbus American Indians. Their volume comes in the form of shell gorgets. A gorget-hypocephalus connection is out-of-place because no historical tie between the ancient Near East and Native Americans from a later time is known. Yet, the traditions behind the shell gorgets outline the Path of Souls in remarkable detail and those details align so intricately with the Path of Souls illustrated on the facsimile that the two must be considered the same type of document.
What is wonderful about Native American traditions is the relatively recent nature of their records. This means one is able to glean a more intimate understanding of their traditions. For instance, a few first-hand records of beautiful secret initiation rites into holy orders of Indian priesthoods are extant. The most poignant example is the Osage Songs of the Wa-xo'-be, recorded a hundred years ago with the full blessing of the Osage priesthood. What is uncovered is breathtaking. Rituals and myths of the Native peoples find significant parallels with Egyptian myth and rituals. These both compare snuggly with Joseph Smith's modern rituals.
The same Path of Souls found on Facsimile 2 and on Mississippian gorgets is also found in the Hebrew Scriptures. Utilizing Margaret Barker's Temple Theology, Joseph's Hypocephalus points out the Path of Souls as a fundamental part of the ancient Hebrew religion. The Path was attacked by King Josiah. Adherents to pathway beliefs scattered to different areas of the world. Some of these people ended up in the Jordanian wilderness, only to reappear centuries later as the Christians. Others ended up in America and others in Egypt. All tell the story of the Path of Souls. The Path of Souls which Facsimile 2 describes is the esoteric essence of revealed religion. It is the secret of the magi, the shaman, and the prophet. Holding up the Path of Souls as a lantern to the words of the ancient scripture produces new images and gives an augmented sense of what the scriptures are really all about. Reading the scriptures in the light of this prism is delightfully insightful.

Exploring the intersections of digital humanities and African diaspora studies
How can scholars use digital tools to better understand the African diaspora across time, space, and disciplines? And how can African diaspora studies inform the practices of digital humanities? These questions are at the heart of this timely collection of essays about the relationship between digital humanities and Black Atlantic studies, offering critical insights into race, migration, media, and scholarly knowledge production.
The Digital Black Atlantic spans the African diaspora’s range—from Africa to North America, Europe, and the Caribbean—while its essayists span academic fields—from history and literary studies to musicology, game studies, and library and information studies. This transnational and interdisciplinary breadth is complemented by essays that focus on specific sites and digital humanities projects throughout the Black Atlantic. Covering key debates, The Digital Black Atlantic asks theoretical and practical questions about the ways that researchers and teachers of the African diaspora negotiate digital methods to explore a broad range of cultural forms including social media, open access libraries, digital music production, and video games. The volume further highlights contributions of African diaspora studies to digital humanities, such as politics and representation, power and authorship, the ephemerality of memory, and the vestiges of colonialist ideologies.
Grounded in contemporary theory and praxis, The Digital Black Atlantic puts the digital humanities into conversation with African diaspora studies in crucial ways that advance both.

The Fallen
Beautiful. Brutal. Wicked as sin.
Five guys with the power of ten, and a burning desire to take me down.
They rule the school with cast iron fists, and stone cold hearts.
But the more they push me away, the more our destinies intertwine.
We're thrown together by chance, bound by circumstance, and held by desire.
Our story is one of lies, revenge, blackmail, and blood.
The Fallen won't be stopped, but nor will I.
So in the end, will the mighty be fallen?
