    Innovative and yet traditional, Laura Coombs Hills (1859-1952) was renowned for both her miniatures on ivory and, later, her pastels of flowers. "Queen of Miniature Painters", "...a veritable John Singer Sargent of miniature painting" and "Dean of Flower Pastels" were merely some of the many accolades ascribed to this New England artist. However, Hills' accomplishments and contributions to America's art historical culture entailed so much more.Sense, Sensibility and Sensation: The Marvelous Miniatures and Perfect Pastels of Laura Coombs Hills, America's Lyrical Impressionist was conceived and written as an atypical art history book to better explore Hills' many contributions to American culture, with a view toward a broader understanding of Hill's ethos. Beyond the presentation of her unique, biographical history as an independent, woman-entrepreneur, this book explores Hill's role in perpetuating a sense of individualism associated more closely with the concepts of home, hearth, and honor of the nineteenth century than the psychological anomie associated with the Modernism of the twentieth, - her own time. In addition, on the pages of this book will be found relevant discussions regarding Hills' ties to Sense, Sensibility and Sensation, that is, to the idea of individualism associated with nineteenth century miniatures and Walt Whitman's celebration of America; the notion of beauty associated with Contemplative Romanticism espoused by Edmund Burke; the sentiments of the "Romance poets" (Lord Byron and Percy B. Shelley); as well as the nineteenth century color theories of Michel Chevreul favored by the Impressionists. Moreover, notions of "democratic empiricism", "aesthetic lyricism", and Hills' passion for "symphonic colors" - are all contributory factors which help to identity Laura Coombs Hills as what I have termed "America's Lyrical Impressionist".

    This is the last in a trilogy of aphoristic reflections on the mystery of Presence. Unlike my previous two books on this subject, Apokalypteria seeks to bridge the gap between those who are drawn to the mystery of Presence but have no hard and fast religious beliefs, and those devout and religious believers who view 'Presence' as a poor substitute when speaking about things sacred, holy and divine.We are currently witnessing the great deconstruction of institutionalized Christianity. This is as fortunate as it is inevitable. Christianity, as genuine, kerygmatic Evangel, defies definition. Christianity is the dissolution of every form of status quo, giving rise to a communion of persons knowing themselves to be in the world but not of the world for the life of the world.This book is a babbling collection of effusive aphorisms spoken in an eschatological key offered in the hope that atheists, agnostics and believers alike may perceive their essential unity in the Mystery of Christ who is present in the Mystery of Presence. In the end, it is all a single Mystery - the triune Mystery of God.

    Like most children brought up Roman Catholic, Richard regularly attended confession. He never quite know why but until he was in high school, he never questioned the purpose, if not the substance of the sacrament. An incident involving a priestly vestment, a confession in a cathedral, overhearing an admission by an elderly lady in an adjacent confessional, the surprising registration for a universe theology course, and Richard leads to a renewal of his faith and an obsession with confession. Further, he accidentally overhears an elderly lady's admission in an adjacent confessional, prompting an investigation into the balance between the harm caused by the sin and the absolution provided by confessors. Over several months, he finds himself investigating misdeeds that would give rise to exceptional measures issued by priests sitting in darkened booths in which divine forgiveness is furnished. A homeless man without a name is murdered and Richard has found the misdeed that he hopes will be absolved by confession. Although his pursuit does not result in anything approaching exoneration, it does provide the murdered man with a name and a mystery with a conclusion.

    This book is dedicated to the memory of my beloved daughter, Sandi Pearl, who passed on twenty two days before her fourteenth birthday in March 2002. The memories of her ministry to the choir, Spiritual dancing, and junior youth still today lingers on in the memories of many young people from the Factreton township whom she regarded as her peers, and they in return looked up to her. I also dedicate this book to my son, Robin, Medical Doctor, and Psychiatrist, who passed away after attending a psychiatrist's conference in a Drakensberg Mediclinic on October 25, 2021, aged forty-one. His mother, Valda, and I are still grieving this unprecedented and unexpected loss. Robin, in particular, was keen to see this book published. He was exemplary in life, conduct, ethics, and intellect, and made us, his family, and colleagues proud. He was, undoubtedly, a product of the hope and success of a new South Africa.However, the circumstances leading to the passing on of my children in relation to the treatment they received at the respective medical institutions have been a blatant reminder to me, that, if they were of the white race, the results may have been different. No amount of litigation will bring them back, but I am comforted that in Sandi's fourteen, and Robin's forty one years, they have left a legacy of goodness and hope, relative to their exemplary achievements. In addition, their mother Valda and I live with beautiful memories of them.

The Sectors in Moscow would provide surveillance covering 180 degrees from Greenland to Cuba. Two other sites, one in Oregon and one in Idaho were set up at the same time. The cost of the full program was $1.2 Billion. In 1991 the Pentagon decided to "Mothball the project because after the collapse of Communism the threat no longer existed.".

    Peace Begins in the Womb: Reflections from a Pro-Life Feminist is a collection of published letters to the editor and articles by Marilyn Kopp, past president of the Ohio chapter of Feminists for Life of America and also includes articles about Feminists for Life. In this book, Marilyn demonstrates how one can be a feminist and pro-life at the same time and how the principles of each go together. Pro-life feminism proposes that it is misogynistic to suggest that women are oppressed by their own life-giving capacity. We will never be truly free until we acknowledge that the beauty, power and strength of pregnancy is something that deserves to be accommodated and supported, not disparaged and denigrated. Abortion conflicts with authentic feminist principles of justice, nonviolence and nondiscrimination. A truly just society would address the challenges that unplanned pregnancies present with life-affirming solutions, not with the lethal violence of abortion. In this book, Marilyn also explores the pro-life roots of the American feminist movement. You are welcome to use the letters and the ideas in them as models to compose your own.
