to truly take seriously a systemic approach and understanding of the
state we are in. I then try to assess what this means for education. In
my view this leads to a paradigm shift and radical reconceptualisation
of how we need to understand and practice learning. Arjen Wals has aptly
called this hybrid social learning.

Our Common Illiteracy takes seriously the international consensus that Education for Sustainability (EfS) is crucial to the survival of humankind. It establishes the principles of a sustainable society and performs a rigorous assessment of the reasons for our unsustainable present. Only on that foundation, it is argued, can the role of education in the transition to a sustainable society be meaningfully assessed. Such an approach is by necessity complex, transdisciplinary and broad. It has to acknowledge the limited significance of education within contemporary society, along with other ‘educators’ such as the media, the economy and the shadow curriculum of institutional practice. The book ends with 28 practical strategies to foster Education for Sustainability.

Object Oriented Programming¶
- The quitessential book for OO, functional programming, logic-based programming, concurrency, etc. is "Concepts, Techniques, and Models of
Computer Programming". It covers all the paradigms in great detail. However, at 950 pages, it's not for the faint of heart. It's really
more for people who want to master all the programming paradigms. It's based on a language called Oz, which is a mix of Erlang, Haskell, Prolog, Lisp, and Java! I figure it'll take me like two years to get through it ;)
- SmallTalk Best Practice Patterns by Kent Beck If you were to only pick one though, the best book you will ever read on how to write object-oriented code. I presented some highlights of the book in my 30 min presentation at MountainWest RubyConf 2009 in case you want to get a feel for it (http://mwrc2009.confreaks.com/14-mar-2009-15-35-what-the-ruby-craftsman-can-learn-from-the-smalltalk-master-philippe-hanrigou.html). The presentation does little justice to the book which distills an intense concentrate of OO wisdom by describing the fundamental forces guiding our every-minute coding decisions (implementation patterns). To read the examples you might have to get a basic understanding of the Smalltalk language, however.
- If you were to skip all the sample code and just read the text you would still be a 10,000% better programmer after reading the book, especially when it comes to OO programming with a dynamic language (like Ruby).
- Smalltalk is extremely close to Ruby and most samples make sense in their context even without previous knowledge of the Smalltalk syntax
- I found "Smalltalk Getting the Message"(http://www.smalltalk-resources.com/Smalltalk-Getting-the-Message.html) a great resource to get quickly up to speed with Smalltalk's concepts and syntax. There are also a lot of gems and OO principles in this paper. One passage I especially enjoy is the one where Alan L. Lovejoy describes duck-typing as "optimistic-typing", for instance.
- Clean Code
While not an OO book per say, a must read for any and all aspiring software developers.
- Agile Software Development
A better OO book by Uncle Bob, which covers design patterns, OO principles, and best practices. If you were going to read one book on OO design, this is the book.


Nicole has always understood that story telling helps us understand the world around us and parts of ourselves that are yet to be discovered. We have been telling stories since time immemorial. Today, in a fast paced and ever-changing world, the power of storytelling is even more critical to bringing us back to our connected humanity. Within each of us lies the undeniable ability to empower one another, foster understanding, and inspire ideas in both big and small ways. Nicole chooses to produce films that take untold stories that shed new light into our shared history, elevate the consciousness and bring us back together.
The Black Godfather is a 2019 documentary film directed by Reginald Hudlin. The film depicts the story of music executive Clarence Avant, told by the people he worked with. Clarence Avant, known as "the godfather of black music", is perhaps not well known by the general public, but very famous in the music industry. Starting as a manager to pianist-composer Lalo Schifrin, he later founded record labels, served as concert organizer, a special events producer, a fund-raiser for Democratic politicians, and a mentor to several African American executives, changing the course of music history.
Trees of Peace takes place during the Rwandan genocide, also known as the genocide against the Tutsi in 1994. The film follows four women of different backgrounds, as they take refuge in a small space below a home as militants seek to murder all Tutsi people and those who sympathize with them. While Trees of Peace is not directly based on a specific true story, it draws from similar accounts to create a narrative that is representative of those shared real-life experiences.


Official Release of Tre motetti sacri by Giacomo Cataldo on Aion Techni
On the 5th of November 2012 Aion Techni will proudly unveil its first exclusively digital release - "Giacomo Cataldo - Tre motetti sacri". This "mini release" will be available exclusively as a digital download and features the world premiere recordings of three new a cappella choral works by composer Giacomo Cataldo, as performed by the CMP Chamber Choir conducted by Jan Ocetek.
Cataldo has always had an interest in the sacred choral tradition and this set of motets mark his first contribution to the form.
The texts selected for all three of these works have a long musical history. Apart from numerous polyphonic settings, the first musical use of all three texts was as Gregorian or plainsong chant. The text of Ardens est cor meum is associated with Easter Saturday, as would only be natural considering its meaning. The text Regina caeli also appears to date from the middle ages and is one of the four seasonal Marian antiphons. The text Vox dilecti mei is taken from the Canticum canticorum (Song of Songs, or Songs of Solomon).
Musically, Cataldo envisioned these works as a continuing evolution of this rich tradition.
Aion Techni remains commited to producing recordings of the highest quality, and to ensuring that new and under explored repertoire and performers are able to be heard. It is our hope that this first foray into digital distribution will make our releases more readily available to a wider audience.
This release will be available from all major online retailers including Amazon MP3 and iTunes as well as at CD Baby.
Further information and audio samples are available at the Aion Techni release page: Giacomo Cataldo - Tre motetti sacri


What others are saying about “An American Knight”
Book review of “An American Knight – a Tank Destroyer Story” by Victor ‘Tory’ Failmezger,
National Media Services, Inc., Front Royal, VA, 2012, by Howard Klein, former critic for The New York Times:
World War II holds a unique place for us: it was the last war to be declared by the Congress, the last war with clear victories – in Europe and in the Pacific – it was the war fought by the ‘Greatest Generation,’ as journalist Tom Brokaw proclaimed it. Although two of its theaters of operation are frequently the subject of films, TV specials and books, and therefore shine in our memories, there were in fact three.
In the Pacific, there were the endless beachheads storming atolls and islands, culminating in the terrifying atomic incineration of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, which brought theater’s conflict to an end. And in the European theater was the high drama of the D-Day invasion of Normandy, the Battle of the Bulge, the suicide of Hitler, and Germany’s surrender. But what of that third theater of operations?
Now, as if to correct history’s poor memory, we have Victor Failmezger’s book, “An American Knight – a
Tank Destroyer Story,” (2012). The book is about that now mostly forgotten theater of operations that
begins with the arid North African Campaign, and moves on to the bloodstained invasion of Italy at Anzio and, what to the minds of some, including Winston Churchill’s, ends with the anticlimactic invasion by mostly American troops of Southern France. And later, with the Battle of the Bulge crowding the headlines, the equally important breaking of the Siegfried Line was also going on; Failmezger shines a light on that.
Failmezger, a retired US Navy Commander, tells his story through letters that Thomas Peter Welch sent
home. Welch, his uncle, was a soldier and an authentic hero. Like an epistolary novel, this loving
biography reprints Welch’s letters home (1942 – 1945) which trace the events of Tommy’s war. From
upstate New York, Welch was typical of most volunteers and conscripts who early in the war found
themselves in uniform, being trained in Texas and later shipping out and finding themselves in relentless combat. Welch writes faithfully to his mother and siblings about his training and later about his combat life. In his letters, if we read between the lines, we sense the gradual toughening and inevitable coarsening of the young man. The sweet Boy Scout innocence flakes away as he is exposed to the grit of combat and its anodynes, alcohol and the random woman.
War dehumanizes its combatants. Welch was not immune from this. One night in Italy, he writes, he drives his Tank Destroyer to within 400-500 yards of the German lines so he can, “Shoot the hell out of them with a 50-cal machine gun. It’s the best sport of the war.” But Welch’s simple prose can be affecting as well, such as when he writes, “Please forgive the writing my hand is cold, it’s hard to write – I’m writing by the light of the moon.”
He writes his mother about another battle where, “The first few days were terrific. It was very good
hunting, and we knocked off lots of Jerry tanks as well as killing lots of square heads.” Indeed, heroism in wartime is made of just such acts. Welch was decorated for his actions and leadership, two Silver Stars, Bronze Stars, Purple Hearts, commendations.
Tommy’s letters are not those of a newsy war correspondent. To fill in the many gaps in the narrative –
periods of prolonged battle when letters could not be written, for example – Failmezger quotes from the letters of other soldiers or officers. Where Tommy is silent, others fill history in.
At the War’s end Tommy’s repatriation did not result in his successful transition to civilian life. He was not the first, nor the last soldier, to fail to adjust – he had two marriages, one unsuccessful, and there was an estranged child. The last letter quoted in the book, was written in 1966. A chatty note to his sister then visiting Helsinki during the Cold War, he warns her husband to “leave his camera behind” when he crosses the border, adding, “I’m too old to crank up my tanks and come to your rescue.” The author tells us, in a footnote, that, “This is the only time that Tommy was known to mention his ‘tanks.’”
As a civilian, Tommy had changed jobs frequently. At his death in 1972 at the youthful age of 51, he is in San Antonio and is now calling himself Pete. Did Tommy the soldier need a new, civilian identity? We don’t know. It is a bittersweet end to a complex life, that of a hero, an innocent, a dissolute, yet loved man for whom killing had become ‘sport.’
“An American Knight” is not just a story of a war or a hero: it is a thorough compendium of military
history footnoting in dizzying completeness some often neglected campaigns. The text is dotted with
exhaustive descriptions of everything pertaining to the military life, its bases, reports, invasion plans, maps, dossiers. A visitor from Mars would be able to reconstruct the entire US Army from this one book, it would seem. There are thirteen appendices, if one wants more details, presenting, among other things, the specification for the Tank Destroyer along with comments and tactics for deployment, definitions of Army Food (A, B and C rations), as well as Nazi propaganda leaflets. The extensive bibliography includes personal interviews with veterans along with copious citations of authors, books and periodicals – research worthy of a David McCullough!
The book is heavily illustrated throughout with photographs, drawings and documents from the author’s
extensive collection. It is a mother lode for scholars of this period. And for the veterans of this, or of other wars, men and women for whom Tommy Welch’s life may mirror elements in their own lives, I would guess that Tommy might earn an honored place among their own comrades in arms. And for anyone
interested in the minutia of this forgotten theater of operations, as well as in the broad dramatic arc of World War II, as seen through the eyes of American soldier, “An American Knight” is well worth thereading.
September 30th, 2013
It is well known that the Internet has fundamentally altered the way we access the news. Citizen journalists report news events and blog on issues that would have never seen the light of day a decade ago. What is not as well known is that the Internet has also changed the way history is researched and presented. Today “citizen historians”—combined with self-publishing Internet services—are preserving history that would have never been considered “historically significant” or had the “mass appeal” favored by the big-time book publishers of old. This is a wonderful social development.
In the book, “An American Knight”, author Tory Failmezger shines as one of best of these new citizen historians. Tory’s book appeals to several historical niche audiences: those with a general interest in researching and preserving the individual memories of WWII soldiers, those who wish to understand the Mediterranean War from an American ground soldier’s perspective (the Northern European perspective has been well documented), and those who have a specific interest in American Tank Destroyer forces (an important history that has been terribly ignored).
Tory’s uncle was 1st Lt. Thomas P. Welch of the 601st Tank Destroyer Battalion. With a boxful of his uncle’s wartime correspondence and a inquisitive attention to detail honed after years as an officer in the U.S. Navy, Tory painstakingly pieces together his uncle’s life. The result is this wonderful book. On the surface, his work has the appearance of one huge scrap book stitched together in chronological order. It is full of interesting charts, photos, maps, and letters. A common problem with scrap book histories is that a reader doesn’t necessarily know what certain items or references are or what they mean. Not so with Tory’s book. Tory narrates and explains everything to you as you read through each page. It is as if he anticipates your next question and has an answer at the ready for you. What was it like to live in Geneva, New York in the 1930s? Tory tells you. What is this “C-ration” that Lt. Welch writes about? Tory tells you this and more. In other words, Tory immediately answers the questions that naturally come to your mind as you read through the material. He also provides a wonderful collection in the book appendix of German propaganda leaflets that Lt. Welch sent home. This collection, in of itself, could probably provide the substance to another fascinating book. Some of these images I have never seen anywhere. By the time you get to the end of the Lt. Welch’s story you feel that you are not just an expert in Tank Destroyers, WWII nomenclature and slang, but a member of Lt. Welch’s own family and tank destroyer crew. Tory’s research is THAT informative! Tory’s book reminds me of some of the best works of the French Publisher “Histoire and Collections” in how he presents his subject. (An example is “Dragoon: The Other Invasion of France” by Paul Gaujac.)
I must make the personal disclosure that interview material I recorded about ten years ago from members of the 601st Tank Destroyer Battalion was used by Tory in this book. At the time of those interviews, I was researching my grandfather’s service in the 756th Tank Battalion for the book “The Day of the Panzer” (Casemate: 2008). While researching, I had no idea which of my interviews would ultimately end up in my own book. As it turned out, I could not use much from those 601st interviews because my focus shifted more to the infantry and tanks—and away from the tank destroyers. Nevertheless, I am extremely pleased and proud that Tory found my material useful and incorporated it into this work. Because of Tory’s exhaustive research, I now have far deeper admiration–not only for his uncle–but for all the men in the 601st Tank Destroyer Battalion. Even after all these years of my own research into WWII, I am still struck by how many thousands of American soldiers with outstanding heroic service have come and gone unheralded. Lt. Welch had dozens of tank kills (and one fighter plane kill!) to his credit in that war. Lt. Welch’s actions at La Maison Rouge in Alsace on 24 January 1945 probably saved the 3rd Battalion / 15th Infantry Regiment from being annihilated by a fierce German armor attack. Lt. Welch was a bonafide American war hero. Thanks to Tory, Welch’s heroism did not die silently with him as it has with so many others of his generation. Thank you, Tory, and well done!!

The 3rd Infantry Division developed an outstanding reputation for aggressiveness and combat effectiveness in World War II. In its 10 campaigns in North Africa, the Mediterranean Theater, and in Europe the Rock of the Marne spent 531 days in combat, incurred 25,977 casualties, had 41 Medal of Honor recipients (the most of any division in WWII), and was decorated with the highest unit awards by the United States (the Presidential Unit Citation) and by France (the Croix-de-Guerre).
Combat units of World War II were comprised of men. It is the men of the 3rd Infantry Division and its attached units who earned that outstanding reputation, with their blood, their sweat, and their courage through innumerable fights in all conditions of weather and terrain. The most famous of those men are the division’s Medal of Honor recipients – their stories were told in the press and have been kept alive in books which are still sold today. However, countless other brave men fought in this war, many died with their heroism unseen and thus unremarked, others received lesser awards for heroism which fellow soldiers would know to respect but which do not carry the caché the Medal of Honor does, while all who survived the war worked hard to establish a sense of normalcy after the trauma they experienced. Their stories also deserve to be told.
Tory Failmezger does this with his book on his uncle, 1 LT Peter “Tommy” Welch. Reading the chapters on his combat service Tommy Welch fit right in in this aggressive combat division. He was the kind of soldier that 3rd Infantry Division Commander Major General John Wilson “Iron Mike” O’Daniel wanted, the kind who would take the fight to the enemy, who would accept risk in order to bring the war to an end more quickly. It was kill or be killed, and Tommy Welch was good at it and lucky. Tory has brought his uncle back to life, using his war time letters he paints a clear picture of a confident, maybe even cocky, young American fighting man.
Tory also takes us back in time, with his extensive use of period materials, to provide us a better understanding of the Army of WWII, and the America of those times. Almost 70 years have passed since the war ended, very few of the Greatest Generation are still among us, and few younger Americans have had the privilege of knowing a WWII veteran. The America of the 1940s doesn’t exist anymore, and it is difficult to put ourselves into the shoes of the men and women who rose to the occasion to defeat Nazism in Europe and preserved American freedom while aiding the Nations of Europe to regain their liberty.
Tommy’s post-war years show a restless man who appears to have been unable to come to closure with the sudden end to his part in the war. He seems to have been a man who found himself while mastering the challenges and the risks of combat. After the intense combat he experienced it is clear little in a peaceful world, in a tidy civilian existence, could provide him the adrenaline rush he needed and only experienced in combat. In today’s America it is probable many young men returning to civilian life after time in Iraq and/or Afghanistan face the same challenge.
Tory is extremely fortunate to have spent time with Tommy – what college kid would not love an uncle who would show him the ropes in the necessary, if not always openly discussed, social skills of young men? And we are extremely fortunate that Tory has chosen to share his deep affection for his uncle with us through this lovingly written and well-researched book. I highly recommend this book to our members as it accurately pictures what life was like in the tank destroyers in WWII.

Just wanted to let you know that I received your book yesterday
evening. I’ve already spot read various pages throughout the book and I can already tell that you
did a great job! I have already regaled members of my Museum staff with
various passages. Your uncle was very gifted with his use of words and he
had a wonderful sense of humor in recording his observations of the various
aspects of a soldier’s life. You did an excellent job in splicing historical
accounts with your uncle’s letters to provide a continuous narrative.

AN AMERICAN KNIGHT-A TANK DESTROYER STORY is a comprehensive and readable book centered around the experiences of Army LT Tommy Welch during and after World War II. Author Victor “Tory” Failmezger describes his Uncle Tommy’s heroism as a tank platoon commander in Italy, France and Germany…and the permanent psychological scars that resulted. Tory uses official records, other historical documents, and recollections from many members of the 601st Tank Destroyer Battalion to provide convincing glimpses of American military and civilian life during World War II. Several years we unexpectedly discovered that my wife’s late father earned a Bronze Star medal, while in the 601st TD Battalion, for his part in destroying two enemy tanks. Tory’s book helps me understand Dad’s post war silence about his combat experiences.
Joe Johnson, Washington, DC:
Tommy Welch got lucky when his nephew, historian and retired Navy officer Victor Failmezger, decided to write his uncle’s biography. Failmezger retraces Thomas Peter Welch’s path through life as a United States army lieutenant in the World War II Italian campaign and, after the war, as a Texas ad man. Much of the book is the first-hand account by Lt. Welch written from the Italian peninsula while he served with the 601st tank destroyer battalion. Tommy wrote relatives and friends as he traveled to Rome and on to France, and his letters’ gritty detail adds to the military history. Welch was not your average soldier, and Failmezger’s thorough research and insights from his own military service in Italy prove it. The extensive documentation includes copious illustrations; you’ll find a photo, map or drawing on nearly every page. My favorites are the cartoons about army life, many drawn by Welch and his friends. Welch returned after the war and made a home in Texas, but never quite settled down. It’s that portion of the book that makes this more than just another tale of combat. Failmezger includes his personal memories of his uncle, making an affectionate tribute that offers an absorbing read and a new window into U.S. history.
Walter W. Meeks, III, Director, Fort Stewart Museum. GA:
I very much remember your work in progress and offer hearty congratulations on your finished product. All of our 3ID units in WWII were filled with exceptional soldiers, it seems, but hardly any are closer to my heart than the “Black Y Boys” of the 601st TD Bn. We would be honored to include a (signed?) copy of your work in our research library.

LTC, U.S. Army, SF, (ret.)
I met you briefly on the last day of Historicon in Fredericksburg, where I purchased your book as you were wheeling the stack out of the hall. I promised to read it as soon as possible and provide feedback. The book went to the top of my stack and I enjoyed recording comments as I went along. It has only taken me this long to contact you because work and family keep me fairly busy. I retired from the Army with 28 years of service as an Armor and, later, Special Forces officer. Now, I just read books about such things and I greatly enjoyed yours.
You certainly had sufficient material for a book on Tommy’s service. Even with Tommy long deceased and no surviving comrades available for interview, you did an admirable job of tying the documentary and narrative material together into a complete story with minimal gaps. Your reconstruction of your uncle’s war experiences overcomes the limitations of the source material because it is such a compelling story. Tommy’s character is revealed slowly through his words and actions as we track his progress through training and deployment to combat in Africa, Italy, and Northern Europe. I was also struck by the number and substantial nature of your Uncle’s awards. He was a highly decorated soldier, and exceptionally so for a tanker. It was important that his story not be lost.
In light of the improved understanding we have gained since 9-11 of the Psychological and physical impact of intense, sustained combat and combat injuries, Tommy’s resilience and courage are remarkable and his later life more understandable. In that vein, I wish there could have been more details about Tommy’s work experience and personal life after the war. To me, how he handled life after combat was equally as interesting as how he survived his battles during the war.
By the time Tommy has received his second purple heart it becomes evident that he was experiencing serious, heavy combat and probably had sustained multiple concussions. Today he would be treated for possible traumatic brain injury and PTSD. There can be little doubt of the source of any emotional or behavioral issues he had after the war. That he was hardened by combat is shown by his frank discussion in letters (page 162) of what his job entails; he is a killer. I gained the impression that his aggressive nature and will to engage in combat was off-putting to peers and superiors who considered him erratic, or even nuts. Thus the multiple decorations without rapid promotion or increased responsibilities, Tommy had just committed himself fully to the fight with an intensity and to a degree that others did not, and it must have scared them.
The Lundquist memoir is very good. He captured the experience in precise shorthand and it was fun to follow along as he mastered the art of digging fighting positions.


Following on from the hugely successful film Holding the Man, Peccadillo Pictures is thrilled to announce the DVD & VOD release of the documentary REMEMBERING THE MAN – the real life account of the lives, love and loss of long-time partners Timothy Conigrave and John Caleo.
At a prestigious Catholic boys school in Melbourne 1974, Tim Conigrave and John Caleo fell madly in love. Their passionate, tempestuous, operatic romance lasted for 16 years, facing disapproval, temptation, separation, and the looming shadow of the Grim Reaper. Their star cross’d relationship was immortalised in Timothy Conigrave’s memoir Holding the Man, and has been adapted for stage and screen. REMEMBERING THE MAN is a feature length documentary based on a long lost audio recording with Timothy Conigrave. This documentary uncovers the true story of how Romeo met Romeo; and what happened ever after.


The untold story of King George VI's speech declaring war in Germany 75 years ago, and how it was sent around the world.
1 x 28 minute programme
Marking the 75th anniversary of King George VI’s declaration of war against Germany, Louise Minchin hears the untold story of the King’s Speech and discovers how it reached the entire world.
Inspired by the discovery of the original pressing of the speech in the EMI Archives – bound in goatskin leather and signed by the King himself – Louise uncovers how the King’s words reached the furthest corners of the British Empire. Starting with the fascinating history of royalty releasing records, and incorporating rare material from the EMI archives, the documentary explores how the British Empire was united by vinyl.
Louise examines the recording of the speech – not from the point of view covered in the 2010 Oscar-winning film, but from the perspective of the EMI employees who have located previously unpublished letters and production notes from the original sessions.
Delivering the King’s Speech delves into the earliest days of the BBC Empire Service – later to become the BBC World Service – to find out how the King’s message was sent across the globe and how it enabled the Empire Service to win the fight against the anti-British propaganda broadcast by the Germans.


The following is a brief list of books, among many others, that we have personally found to be of great encouragement. In this journey these have helped us to grow in our understanding of what the Lord Himself is after and to throw some much needed light on this Christian life. We pray these have the same encouragement for you as you seek to follow Him and explore the unsearchable riches of Christ. Some of these writings are old and some new, some from saints who have passed on to glory and others who are still with us. All leave a timeless wealth of insight for the body of Christ. We are all the better for it, and we stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before us. I have grouped these together by author.
Come and Taste and See That Jesus Christ Is Infinitely More Than You Ever Imagined
Very few men in the history of the Church have ever spoken with the clarity, depth, and passion of T. Austin Sparks on God’s “eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Ephesians 3:11). It is a theme so little understood in today’s floundering Church that it is seldom even mentioned. As a highly revered voice from our past, Sparks brings to this generation of believers a vision of the greatness of Christ that will transform lives with His fullness and power. Our difficulty always will be to comprehend, to grasp, to bring that excellent greatness of God’s eternal grace, that transcendent fullness of Christ, within the compass of our everyday lives and practical experiences. yet He is the One whom we desperately need to know.Although it is so far beyond our natural comprehension, it is the good pleasure of God to reveal His Son in our lives by His Spirit. An ever-growing, inexhaustible conception of Christ is yours for the seeking and asking!
In a time when everyone is trying to rediscover the church, a voice comes to us from the past that shines like a great light in our utter darkness. T. Austin-Sparks is a prophetic voice to this generation and his words are as real and relevant as they were in his time.In God’s Spiritual House Sparks speaks out with compelling force that man cannot redefine the church until Christ has come to repossess the Church. God’s house is not a denomination, it is not a network, it is not a building and it is not an organization. It is Christ Himself in undivided oneness found in all those in whom He really dwells.With shocking clarity Sparks announces that we are not the Church. It is the measure of Christ in us that constitutes the Church as God’s spiritual house.
The School of Christ by T Austin-Sparks A series of addresses originally published in A Witness and A Testimony magazine in 1942-43. Vols 20-3 through 21-4. Subsequently published by Witness and Testimony Publishers as a book in multiple editions, this version is from Emmanuel Church, Tulsa, OK. The spoken form has been retained in printing.
It is upon the centrality and supremacy of the Son of God’s love that we shall dwell as the Lord will enable us. The Word of God brings into view four spheres in which that thought and purpose of God concerning the Son of His love is to be realized. There is the sphere of the believer’s own individual life; then secondly, there is the sphere of the Church which is His Body; in the third place there is the sphere of the kingdoms of this world, the nations of the earth; and in the fourth place He is to be central and supreme in the whole universe, heaven and earth and what is under the earth.

Biblical prophets called God’s people to clear spiritual vision and holy living. The need for holiness is as urgent for today’s Church as it was for the Old Testament Jews. This reprint of a classic book by the late T. Austin Sparks, a British pastor, paints a fresh picture of the prophet and challenges the Body of Christ to once again proclaim God’s presence among the nations of the world!
This great Christian classic unfolds the theme of Christ our Life. Nee reveals the secret of spiritual strength and vitality that should be the normal experience of every Christian. His fresh spiritual insights on the cross and resurrection of Christ have proven a blessing to many.
Watchman Nee stood against the tide of Chinese Marxist atheism and Communism in the first half of the twentieth century. Once described as;The most dangerous man in China;, Watchman Nee was imprisoned for his faith and sentenced to 20 years hard labor, brainwashing and physical torture. It is almost certain that in all that time he was not allowed a Bible but relied on the many passages he had committed to memory. Nee once observed following a severe trial of faith: ;To keep our hand to the plough while wiping away our tears – that is Christianity.; Yet he was able to testify in his last letter before his death to the joy that was still in his heart. This biography takes us from his birth, through his conversion and extraordinary life to his death, and includes new information concerning his last few years and the persecution of his beloved wife Charity after his trial and imprisonment.
Anyone who serves God will discover sooner or later that the great hindrances he has in the Lord’s work is not others, but himself. He will discover that his outward man (soul) is not in harmony with his inward man (spirit). Both tend to go toward two opposite directions from each other. He will also sense the inability of his outward man to submit to the inner control of his regenerated spirit. His greatest difficulty lies in his outward man, which hinders him from using his spirit. Each one of us has as much of the same “Jacob-nature” in us. Our only hope is that the Lord may blaze a way out of us, breaking our outward man- breaking it to such a degree that the inward man may come out and be seen. This is precious! This is the way to serve the Lord.
In this hard-hitting and controversial book, the great Chinese writer and preacher Watchman nee states that there is a Satanic power behind every worldly thing and that the natural tendency of every worldly system such as politics, education, literature, science, art and music is to move away from God and Towards Satan. How can the Christian live and work in these systems, but not be of the world?
This is a complete presentation on the workings of the human spirit and soul and body. The book aims at delivering people from the tyranny of self life with its carnality and from the domination of the passions and lusts of the flesh. It attempts to lead them to the full salvation of Christ. It is not to be taken as a manual but as a guide to true spirituality. It is recommended that this three volume work be read quickly through once. Then, lay it aside and wait until the Holy Spirit leads one into a certain stage of spiritual life when knowledge and understanding are needed. Turn, then to the special section of the book dealing with that particular experience for enlightenment. Thus, it will be realized that in Thy light, shall we see light (Ps. 36.9 ). May God use this book to help people in their journeying towards the spiritual.
A new way of seeing that the headwaters for all church life and form is the community life of the Father, Son, and Spirit. This is both theological and practical. The corporate life that God lives by (eternal life) is the same that He gives to us. This is a life of loving one another and Jesus said that it comes from heaven (John 17). This community life is both the engine and the fuel for our lives together as believers, the backbone of organic church life.
In this revolutionary book, Milt Rodriguez has us take a new look at both the wine and the wineskin. The dynamic life of God’s own Son cannot be contained within the rigid walls of the religious system. Milt pulls back the scales from our eyes to enable us to see God’s eternal purpose and goal. Then he uses the picture of the priesthood to show us the difference between the levitical priesthood and the eternal priesthood of Melchizedek. The order of Melchizedek operates by the power of an endless life! Life always determines form.
God’s goal is that the fulness of Christ would be expressed through His body. This cannot happen with our present day church practices. A revolution must take place where the centrality of Jesus Christ is supreme and every member of the body functions under His direct headship. Milt shows us how this can be possible in our present day situation. This book will not only shake your thoughts on church life, it will challenge you to take the torch of radical church reform into the 21st century!
Today’s Christianity has some serious weaknesses, but none greater than our lack of depth in knowing Christ Himself. We know many things; doctrines, teachings, and theological systems abound! We know the scriptures through and through but do we really know the One who is the living Word of God?
Milt Rodriguez takes us on a journey through the scriptures using one particular vehicle: the Temple of God. He shows us how the physical Temple is only a picture of something much greater, deeper, and higher. The Temple is a picture of Christ and this Christ lives within every true believer.
Milt shares with us sights into some of the most important, and yet ignored, revelation in the bible. What did Paul mean when he used the phrase “Christ in you”? What does it mean to be “in Christ”? Understanding these things are key to knowing how to fellowship with an indwelling Christ. Our outward walk and works must be the result of a deep inward fellowship with Jesus Christ.
Take a scriptural journey down the path of discovering who you are in Christ. This is how God sees you. This book will open your eyes to see the new you in Him!
The foundation for everything is Jesus Christ Himself. Not a doctrine, not a belief system, not any particular church practice or creed. But simply, the Person of Christ Himself. I’m speaking of His life and His Spirit. To put it plainly, we just have not built upon that foundation. Instead we have built upon teachings about Christ, or personalities or man made structures. But we have not tapped into the one source for all New Testament truth and practice; Christ in you, the hope of glory!
Manfred Haller skillfully takes us back to our spiritual roots. He takes us back to our true Foundation in order that the glory may return to His temple.
Scores of pastors and teachers testify, “THIS CHANGED MY LIFE AND MINISTRY.” This is possibly this writer’s best book; in it he traces God’s eternal purpose for mankind, God’s rectifying work through the cross, and the glory of sonship. Whether you are a lay Christian or involved in ministry, your life will never be the same after reading this book! Every believer will be deeply impressed by a thorough reading of DeVern Fromke’s classic setting forth the importance of God-centeredness for the normal Christian life. Beginning with an unfolding of God’s eternal purpose which He purposed for Himself in eternity past, the various chapters set forth t
he importance of a God-centered view of reality as the only environment nurturing proper spiritual growth. It is not an exaggeration to say that this volume has radically altered many people’s understanding of the Christian life, lifting it beyond the pale of “self-interest” and into the only realm it was intended to be lived–with God as Center! This new reprint includes a study guide and can be used for personal or group study. We highly recommend using it to spur spiritual growth in your church.
Have you ever wondered why we Christians do what we do for church every Sunday morning? Why do we “dress up” for church? Why does the pastor preach a sermon each week? Why do we have pews, steeples, choirs, and seminaries? This volume reveals the startling truth: most of what Christians do in present-day churches is not rooted in the New Testament, but in pagan culture and rituals developed long after the death of the apostles. Coauthors Frank Viola and George Barna support their thesis with compelling historical evidence in the first-ever book to document the full story of modern Christian church practices.
A revolution is moving through the body of Christ, challenging the spiritual status quo and redefining the very notion of corporate worship. A movement inspired by the divine design for holy fellowship. A fresh concept rooted in ancient history.
Discover the sweeping story of God’s eternal plan.
Deep within God’s Word lies a wondrous story like no other. A drama that unfolded before time began. An epic saga that resonates with the heartbeat of God. A story that reveals nothing less than the meaning of life and God’s great mission in the earth.
From Here to Eternity presents three remarkable stories spanning from Genesis to Revelation. Each story traces a divine theme that is woven throughout scripture. Seen together, they offer an extraordinary glimpse into God’s highest passion and grand mission. What you discover will forever change your view of life, the church, and our magnificent God.
“So that in everything He might have the supremacy.”
Christians have made the gospel about so many things—things other than Christ. Religious concepts, ideas, doctrines, strategies, methods, techniques, formulas, “its” and “things” have all eclipsed the beauty, the glory, and the reality of the Lord Jesus Himself. On the whole, Christians today are starved for a real experience of the living Christ. We know a lot about our Lord, but we don’t know Him very well. We know a lot about trying to be like Jesus, but very little about living by His indwelling life.
With over 2 million copies sold, Hinds’ Feet on High Places remains Hannah Hurnard’s best known and most beloved book: a timeless allegory dramatizing the yearning of God’s children to be led to new heights of love, joy, and victory. In this moving tale, follow Much-Afraid on her spiritual journey as she overcomes many dangers and mounts at last to the High Places. There she gains a new name and is transformed by her union with the loving Shepherd. Included in this special edition (February 2009 release) is Hannah Hurnard’s own account of the circumstances that led her to write Hinds’ Feet, and a brief autobiography. Special edition also features a new cover design.
One of the most influential spiritual books ever penned, even secular historians acknowledge the great impact Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ has had in Christian history. Madame Guyon is generally credited, even by her enemies, as being one of the best-known women in church history. Will Durant, in his 11-volume Story of Civilization, recounts the impact of Jeanne Guyon’s life and writings on French history.
At one time this book was publicly burned in France and yet it has also been received by seeking Christians as one of the most helpful and powerful Christian books ever written. Penned by one of Christianity’s most famous saints, Jeanne Guyon, it has played a major part in the lives of more famous Christians than perhaps any other Christian book. Here is the very first edition written in modern English.
Watchman Nee saw that this book was translated into Chinese, and made available to every new convert of The Little Flock. Fenelon, Count Zinzenforf, John Wesley, the early Quakers, Jessie Penn-Lewis and Hudson Taylor all highly recommended it to the believers of their day. This book will introduce you to a whole new-and deeper-relationship to Jesus Christ.
Bored with the exercises of religious ritualism and parched by the teaching of dry dogma, man searches for a way back home to the place of His presence. Unfortunately, this journey inward is a “road less traveled” and too few have found the way. Gene Edwards, the master storyteller, has gathered together the writing of three Christian mystics from the seventeenth century: Michael Molinos, Madam Guyon, and Francois Fenelon, The writings of these “masters of the spiritual way” will be as lampposts leading the weary traveler towards that secret place lovingly created by the Father. The writings of Molinos, Fuyon, and Fenelon will bring you to the brink of your own humanity as they lure you to step over the threshold into the world where God has prepared a special place just for you. Are you living in a drought of spiritual dryness? Are you lost in the depths of spiritual loneliness? Are you longing for a moment of spiritual reality? Then 100 Days in a Secret Place is your way out!


USAID-Supporting Access to Justice, Fostering Equity and Peace (USAID-SAFE) commissioned the development of this Manual as part of its objective to strengthen Government of Uganda‘s (GoU) capacity with respect to peace building and conflict mitigation.
This initiative is part of efforts to provide assistance, training and capacity building for Local Government structures, District Land Boards, Area Land Committees, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and established traditional/community based dispute resolution mechanisms to mitigate conflict relating to land while taking into account the Program‘s cross cutting themes of youth, gender, population, anti-corruption and oil production.
Although intended for use mainly by CSOs and Community Based Organisations (CBOs) to provide legal assistance relating to land issues in the SAFE Program‘s target districts, it can also be used by other aforementioned institutions.
It is written in plain terms to the greatest extent possible given the nature of the subject matter, with appropriate illustrations such as diagrams and pictures, for ease of use by its target users in CSOs. The Manual contains guidelines on the organizational and practical skills necessary to be a Community Legal Volunteer (CLV) and how to run a program that provides legal assistance. USAID-SAFE hopes that legal assistance will focus largely on land matters; hence, the Manual utilizes examples and scenarios that will enable the target users to apply land law and enhance land rights.
The Manual also provides a guide on the land regulatory as well as dispute resolution bodies. It is also hoped that CLVs will use it to resolve and mitigate conflicts relating to land in a manner that shows sensitivity to the cross-cutting themes of gender, youth, population, anti-corruption and oil production.
This Manual was developed in a participatory manner by visiting, interviewing and consulting with CSOs that are already offering community legal assistance services. Existing training manuals that were readily available were reviewed, adapted and acknowledged. Accordingly, this Manual builds on and attempts to harmonize existing efforts that have been made in this area.
It is a multi-purpose Manual that can be adapted and modified to suit a number of aims:
- It may be used by existing CSOs to expand their work to include a CLV component.
- It may be used to train qualified members of the community to become CLVs.
- It can be used to establish new CLV organizations to help in solving land rights problems in communities.
- It can be used as a Trainer of Trainers‘ Manual, to train people who will in turn train others to become CLVs.
- People who have already been trained as CLVs can use the Manual as a day-to-day reference guide for their work.
It should be noted that this Manual is intended to be used hand-in-hand with the Program‘s Land Rights Handbook which contains detailed information on Land Law, Policy and Rights in Uganda. It is suggested that the facilitator conducting the training familiarizes themselves with both the Manual and the Handbook prior to conducting the training.

Vive Library Program Brings VR to Local Communities in California and Nevada
Virtual reality (VR) is being used for much more than for playing games, and our public libraries have always brought free new technology to their communities to entertain and to educate. It began with manuscripts and then books, and in the 20th Century, public libraries added VHS tapes, then MP3s and DVDs, and in the 21st Century they are online and we have eBooks streaming from the cloud. Now the Vive Library Program brings VR to local communities.
HTC VIVE has partnered with the California and Nevada state libraries, XRLibraries and CALIFA, to bring VR to library goers in both states. This partnership is opportunity to bring premium VR to everyone for exploration and education. The Vive Library Program is currently being deployed in about 100 public libraries in California. Beginning in July, the program will launch VR installations in 11 public libraries in Nevada.
Here is the full press release:
SAN FRANCISCO – June 20, 2018 – Libraries are a gathering place for education and learning. Now through a partnership with HTC VIVE™ and the California and Nevada state libraries, library patrons in both states can explore and learn in new ways through premium virtual reality. With VR systems deployed in 100 public libraries throughout California, the program will launch additional VR installations in 11 public libraries across Nevada beginning in July.
“This generous contribution by Vive is helping bring a virtual world of adventure and learning to communities across California,” said California State Librarian, Greg Lucas. “As more virtual reality stations take root across our library system, we are seeing positive learning impacts and visitors that are genuinely excited about technology and education.”
“We’re excited to partner with the California and Nevada state libraries and XRLibraries to democratize Virtual Reality and give everyone equal access to the best VR experiences,” said Chris Chin, Executive Director of VR Content, HTC VIVE. “Anyone can go to a local library and experience for themselves how VR is changing the way we create, explore, and learn in the 21stcentury.”
Libraries have always played an instrumental role bringing new technology and resources to their communities — from bound pages and VHS tapes, to MP3s and eBooks streaming directly from the cloud. They offer a safe space for the public to access emerging technologies that may not be available in local households. HTC Vive offers a premium and immersive experience where learning naturally takes place and the possibilities for exploration are endless.
Paula MacKinnon Executive Director, CALIFA, defined the focus. “Libraries are the perfect community space to provide access to new technologies and the wealth of educational VR content that is getting published today. Whether it’s exploring the endocrine system of a shark or travelling back in time or to Mars – Libraries are great social places that curate large collections of content and the means to experience it – for fun, for learning and for free.”
The Vive Library program content is powered by Viveport, HTC Vive’s official App Store and Content Platform and includes access to a curated list of 35 free educational content experiences spanning geography, arts & culture, science, history, design, and wellness. Patrons can uncover the mysteries of the Amazon and explore the International Space Station, visit museums around the world, time travel back to the fall of the Berlin Wall, and even learn meditation to reduce anxiety. This comprehensive content catalog will continue to expand in the weeks and months ahead.
John MacLeod, Executive Director of XRLibraries, explained that these new launches benefit not only local communities, but VR industry partners making new and exciting VR experiences. “This makes VR available and accessible to everyone.”
“We love how VR in libraries opens the door for more communication and interactivity among our communities.” Said JC Escalante, Senior Technology Specialist, at San Mateo County Libraries. “Our VR experience allows patrons to visit other countries, paint in 3D, defend castles from invading armies, and it’s all achieved from the convenience of their local library.”
“For most of the families that use VIVE at our library, it is their first experience with VR technology,” explained Andrew Tweet, Lead Senior Librarian at Folsom Public Library. “Families know they know they can trust us to provide VR programs that will be safe, fun, and educational with the professionalism and knowledge that they expect from a library.”
With the success of the California State Library launch, Libraries and Vive will partner with Nevada State Libraries to bring premium VR to 11 more libraries including Carson City, Boulder City, Henderson, Reno and Lovelock. These libraries represent a select group of emerging technology early adopters serving underserved populations who have demonstrated a need and have developed well-conceived ideas for incorporating VR into their library programs.
Happy VR Gaming (and education)!

The Gospel of Mark chronicles Jesus’s journey from Galilee to Jerusalem. Along the way, the Messiah gathers a ragged band of disciples. As crowds grow and dwindle on the road to Jerusalem, only a few stick by the Suffering Savior on the road of discipleship.
In this 11-part series on the Gospel of Mark, the women of Redemption Hill will be following author and speaker Francis Chan as he invites us to walk with him along the ancient ways of the Master. Tracing the steps of Jesus and the Twelve through Israel, Francis explores the major themes of the Gospel of Mark, and asks: Are we willing to take this journey to embrace discipleship?

New Zealand International Grand Prix, 1959, Original.
Excellent and wonderfully rare poster from the very limited New Zealand print run for the 1959 Grand Prix, held at the Ardmore Aerodrome circuit in January of that year.
Moss, Brabham and McLaren came in 1st, 2nd and 3rd., all in Coopers, with Carroll Shelby and Harry Schell 4th in a Maserati 250F.
This poster is in great shape, with just a little scuffing on the top edge. It measures c.27 x 18 inches.
Here’s the full skinny on the race, and note some surprising names who made the, then epic, voyage to NZ.:
Origin: New Zealand 1959
Size: 18 x 27 in / 46 x 69 cm

The Royal Collections of the Netherlands can be seen as the accumulation of objects and sources of information that members of the houses of Nassau and Orange-Nassau, and people around them, have gathered and kept over many centuries. They are private possessions that are now managed by a number of foundations. The collections reflect the history of the Dutch royal family from its origins in the German nobility. As such, they are the Dutch counterparts of such collections as the Royal Collections in Windsor and the Historiske Samlinger in Copenhagen.
The great majority of the collections of the House of Orange-Nassau are managed by the Royal Collections of the Netherlands, one of the departments of the Royal Household. Its director is an officer of the Household. He is also responsible for the public activities of Koninklijk Paleis Amsterdam, including its opening to visitors and the exhibitions and symposia held there.
Integrated heritage management
Because of the special role played by the House of Orange-Nassau in Dutch society, past and present, many of the items in the Royal Collections of the Netherlands are closely associated with important events and periods of Dutch history, during the eras of the Republic of the United Netherlands and – since 1815 – the Kingdom of the Netherlands . The archives, library works, documentation and photographs held in the Royal Collections of the Netherlands provide a wealth of information about this history, and thus also about the collections themselves. By applying a policy of integrated heritage management, it is possible to show the significance of the members of the House of Orange and to study their collections in their original context. As such, the Royal Collections of the Netherlands can be identified as an institution that is important to the history and art history of the Netherlands, where information and works of the fine and decorative arts are managed as a coherent whole and can be studied. In this sense the Royal Collections of the Netherlands complement such institutions as the Nationaal Archief for archives; National Museum Paleis Het Loo, for the fine and decorative arts; and the Koninklijke Bibliotheek, for books and documentation.
Origins and opening
In 1825, realising the national importance of the written heritage of the House of Orange, King William I entrusted its management to professional archivists. The best known of these, between 1831 and 1871, was the historian Guillaume Groen van Prinsterer L.L.M., who for much of this period combined the role of archive manager with his position as Director of the King’s Cabinet. Even in the nineteenth century, there was a policy of opening important sections of the archive. This resulted in the publication of a long series of source lists.
At first, the Royal Collections of the Netherlands were scattered across multiple locations in The Hague. In 1898, however, a dedicated Royal House Archive building was built in the grounds of Noordeinde Palace at the instigation of Queen-Regent Emma. In 1993 Princess Juliana transferred ownership of the building to the 'Stichting Historische Verzamelingen van het Huis Oranje-Nassau', a move which reiterated the private nature of the collections and the building that housed a considerable part of them. Following the addition of two underground repositories a century after its original construction, this building today accommodates all the archives, much of the library, the documentation and the photographic collection.
Only a small part of the fine and decorative arts collections are found here, though. Most of the thousands of objects in these categories are part of the furnishing in various palaces or on long-term loan to museums such as National Museum Paleis Het Loo. Others are lent out on a short-term basis for exhibitions in the Netherlands and abroad. In 2014 the Royal Collections of the Netherlands loaned 1115 items for this purpose, making us one of the Netherlands’ most important lenders of temporary museum exhibits.
One special category comprises the numerous gifts presented to the king, the queen and other members of the Royal House by official bodies and private citizens. Over the years these have accumulated to form a collection reflecting the affection so many people have shown, and still show, towards members of the House of Orange-Nassau. This is by far the fastest growing sub-collection.
The Royal Collections of the Netherlands in 2015
By no means all the products and services supplied by the Royal Collections of the Netherlands are labelled as such. Quite rightly, authors publish their works and museums organise exhibitions under their own names. But these communications have often been substantially enriched by information or objects from the Royal Collections, and thus they represent an important showcase for these collections. In order to increase the visibility and use of the Royal Collections of the Netherlands, in 2014 the trustees of their various foundations, who include King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima, took the initiative to launch this website. As well as general information about the collections, the website provides online access to one of the Netherlands’ most fascinating private heritage resources at different levels and in a number of different ways. It goes without saying that the launch was only a first step: an item that was added to the site today may be supplemented with new information tomorrow.

The book describes the worlds where Swahili is spoken as multi-centred contexts that cannot be thought of as located in a specific coastal area of Kenya or Tanzania. The articles presented discuss a range of geographical areas where Swahili is spoken, from Somalia to Mozambique along the Indian Ocean, in Europe and the US. In an attempt to de-essentialize the concepts of translocality and cosmopolitanism, the emphasis of the book is on translocality as experienced by different social strata and by gender and cosmopolitanism as an acquired attitude.

Welcome to the BZPRPG Wiki! This Wiki is dedicated to chronicling the official BZPower text-based Bionicle RPG. All players in the BZPRPG are welcome to come and edit.
23rd June, 2014: The Lorebook
We're doing some spring-cleaning over at the BZPRPG Wiki. As most people who've been on the Wiki will have noticed, a lot of important information is out-of-date or missing, and the organisation of articles isn't totally clear and thus appears somewhat jumbled, so navigation can be difficult. Now, we're creating a project to solve that. It's called 'Lorebook'. The Lorebook will consolidate the pages that have relevance to most players (major locations, events, species, staff plot stuff etc) and make sure they're given priority, kept up-to-date and written to a high standard. The Lorebook will also serve another purpose. We're going to stylise it like an actual book, divided into volumes and chapters on different topics. Each page will still be a regular, standalone Wiki page, but it will also have a header and footer with links to, say, the contents and adjacent pages for ease of navigation. Once complete, the Lorebook will essentially be an everything-you-need-to-know guide to the BZPRPG, which will be useful to new players who want to get a proper grip on the game-world, for returning players who want to catch up on the core stuff without trawling through forum history, or indeed for general reference. To make sure that the Lorebook is put together in a thorough and organised way, I'd like to ask that anybody who would like to help contact me first (PM or Skype) so that our efforts can be properly coordinated. People with a good grip on BZPRPG lore and a familiarity with the Wiki would be most useful, but of course the only requirement is a little enthusiasm!
What is the BZPRPG?
The BZPRPG (BZPower Roleplaying Game) is the official text-based Bionicle RPG of BZPower. This Wiki chronicles the characters, events, locations and more that appear in the rich and complex world of the RPG's third incarnation - known by some as "BZPIII".
Set in the Endless Ocean on the island of Mata Nui and the recently-revealed Kentoku Archipelago, in a world where the Toa Mata failed to defeat Makuta, the BZPRPG has followed the events of the struggle against Makuta, his eventual defeat at the hands of a new Toa Team, the uneasy peace that followed, and now first contact between the peoples of Mata Nui and the Dasaka of Kentoku.
