＜p＞Do you feel good about money? When you receive a paycheck or are given money, does it make you squirm, or do you feel excited about all the possibilities yet to happen? Do you rush to deposit it, or give it away? When you spend or even think about your money, do you feel good?＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book illustrates ways to get you closer to your goal of feeling good about money. I am not a financial advisor in any sense, though I am a Certified Health Educator. Instead, I am sharing things I do to feel better about my thoughts surrounding money and the things I do to make myself feel happier about abundance. The techniques I use combine a lot of mental exercises with feng shui since I find those types of practices to be the most beneficial. I am not a certified Feng Shui practitioner, but I have practiced and used Feng Shui in my own life with radically positive results.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As a sequel to "Feel Good Now," this is a similarly "bite-sized" holistic approach to refreshing and renewing your thoughts about money. Centered on mind, body and spirit-balancing activities, I suggest a daily practice that aims at creating a better, brighter future for yourself.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

I will send you the pictures back, along with the ones of him watching me with other men and you can blow it all open.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“We are going to control him as a candidate and a man.” Grayson slipped out the other form and looked it over. “That’s hardcore.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“I’m hardcore, and in every way.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“I see it, and I saw it.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“What do you say Grayson?

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier【電子書籍】[ Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ]

＜p＞The ideas of my friend Watson, though limited, are exceedingly pertinacious. For a long time he has worried me to write an experience of my own. Perhaps I have rather invited this persecution, since I have often had occasion to point out to him how superficial are his own accounts and to accuse him of pandering to popular taste instead of confining himself rigidly to facts and figures. “Try it yourself, Holmes!” he has retorted, and I am compelled to admit that, having taken my pen in my hand, I do begin to realize that the matter must be presented in such a way as may interest the reader. The following case can hardly fail to do so, as it is among the strangest happenings in my collection though it chanced that Watson had no note of it in his collection. Speaking of my old friend and biographer, I would take this opportunity to remark that if I burden myself with a companion in my various little inquiries it is not done out of sentiment or caprice, but it is that Watson has some remarkable characteristics of his own to which in his modesty he has given small attention amid his exaggerated estimates of my own performances. A confederate who foresees your conclusions and course of action is always dangerous, but one to whom each development comes as a perpetual surprise, and to whom the future is always a closed book, is indeed an ideal helpmate. I find from my notebook that it was in January, 1903, just after the conclusion of the Boer War, that I had my visit from Mr. James M. Dodd, a big, fresh, sunburned, upstanding Briton. The good Watson had at that time deserted me for a wife, the only selfish action which I can recall in our association. I was alone. It is my habit to sit with my back to the window and to place my visitors in the opposite chair, where the light falls full upon them. Mr. James M. Dodd seemed somewhat at a loss how to begin the interview. I did not attempt to help him, for his silence gave me more time for observation. I have found it wise to impress clients with a sense of power, and so I gave him some of my conclusions.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Transparent Tree【電子書籍】[ Robert Kelly ]

＜p＞Each of the eleven long and short fictions in this book is a mystery of language branching from its imaginary root. Through different settings and events, Kelly explores the dimensions of a central theme ー how people act without knowing what is happening to them, how they move through the enigma of desire and intention while waiting for the world to decipher itself. Written with the clarity and palpably sensuous, carefully crafted style that has won awards for this poetry, this premier collection, which includes the famous novella "Cities," received an American Academy-Institute Award in 1985.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Readers familiar with [Kelly's poetry and essays] will find many of the features of his work from the outset: a lyrical prose style that mixes eroticism and erudition, a focus on the act of perception and on the presentation of sensory stimuli and sexual impulses in highly charged images, a sense of shock, wonder and utter bewilderment that human consciousness exists at all and a primal urge to leave behind a mark of his own particular consciousness in sensuous language.… For all their experimentalism, the stories are usually compelling, full of exotic adventures, erotic encounters and crazed and vibrant central characters. …For all the erudition Kelly brings to these stories (many references to obscure myths and texts, arcane words, unusual sources of knowledge), his most impressive ability is to re-create the exhilarating 'hereness' of physical sensation..." ー＜em＞New York Times Book Review＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Many single-author collections of stories are the same story retold with minor variations; that is not the case here. Each of these fictions is an attempt to explore the capabilities of language to express the mystery and excitement of man's relationship with the universe, the connection between consciousness and its object, and the connection between imagination and reality.... The affinities are with the writings of Borges, Nabokov, Calvino, and Robert Coover." ー＜em＞Choice＜/em＞ (American Library Assn.)＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Robert Kelly's ＜em＞Scorpions＜/em＞ was one of the finest of the cult novels of the '60s, 'cult' being a euphemism for 'undeservedly underread,' and it alerted us to a very special talent. Since then, we've learned to watch out for his short fictions, often lighting up the literary world with their astonishing mix of intellect, romanticism, and daring imagination. This collection, with such Kelly classics as 'Cities,' and 'The Guest,' is a welcome publishing event." ーRobert Coover＜/p＞ ＜p＞"These eleven fictions vary iun length and ambition, from short neo-parables to the thirty-page alternative anthropology of 'Cities,' the story of one man's journeys to secret cities hidden in all corners of the world. In their brilliant invention and intricate detail these cities (and the counrty of 'Wheres') are much closer to those of Harry Mathew's work than to the more romantic ＜em＞Invisible Cities＜/em＞ of Italo Calvino. 'Cities' offers no plot, only an illumination of man's restless urge to explore all possibilities. …'The Guest' is a tale of demonic possession, with an erotic slant. A spirit takes up residence in a woman's body, alternately taking and giving pleasure to keep her under control. Kelly's sensual language is at its best in this story: 'I could become her clitoris and preen myself there, like an owl in a canoe, in the slender craft of her lips.' …Treat yourself to this book. Better buy two copies. You may find yourself just holding this book, or tapping the cover as you pass it, or using the spine to cool your brow, and you may wear out one copy. Books good enough to be used as touchstones are rare. This is one." ー ＜em＞New Pages＜/em＞ #10＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】This Was Our Brown County Then【電子書籍】[ Helen C. Ayers ]

＜p＞As far as I know, no one else has done such a book as this one giving the history of the whole of Brown County, so I did it myself with the help of Rhonda A. Dunn. I cover most of the happenings in Brown County for more than 220 years up until the present time. To do this I had to make the book into two parts, the older parts are from the 1800s and that section is called simply, THEN. The stories of what is in Brown County since that time but up to today, is simply called, NOW. Then when we added the new history center, we went to three parts for this book to keep it simple to keep the history together for easier handling and reading. Brown County has changed so much in 220 years that it is amazing. But most of what we are today is what we started from actually. I think you will find this to be true if you read the book in its entirety. Most of the early settlers were from the states of the Carolinas, Virginias, Ohio and Kentucky. Many of those people or their offspring are still here today but we are having an influx of what some call “furriners” today. People today come from the cities to visit, decide they like it here as much as we do and buy up a piece of land and build a log home and stay here. It takes all kinds to make a homogenous group. I think we have done our best to accomplish that. So, pull yourself up a chair, grab a cup of coffee or iced tea, and set a spell and read all about us in this first ever fairly complete history of Brown County.

Then love yourself, and as self-love grows, you will be able to let go of what has taken place.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I also surrounded myself with supportive people, family, and friends who ensured I was on track, especially when emotions overwhelmed me.

I also discovered new hobbies and my purpose.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Additionally, I have learned to wait upon the promises of God, which are yes and Amen.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Sherlock Holmes: The Copper Beeches【電子書籍】[ Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ]

＜p＞“To the man who loves art for its own sake,” remarked Sherlock Holmes, tossing aside the advertisement sheet of the Daily Telegraph, “it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived. It is pleasant to me to observe, Watson, that you have so far grasped this truth that in these little records of our cases which you have been good enough to draw up, and, I am bound to say, occasionally to embellish, you have given prominence not so much to the many causes c?l?bres and sensational trials in which I have figured but rather to those incidents which may have been trivial in themselves, but which have given room for those faculties of deduction and of logical synthesis which I have made my special province.” “And yet,” said I, smiling, “I cannot quite hold myself absolved from the charge of sensationalism which has been urged against my records.” “You have erred, perhaps,” he observed, taking up a glowing cinder with the tongs and lighting with it the long cherry-wood pipe which was wont to replace his clay when he was in a disputatious rather than a meditative moodー“you have erred perhaps in attempting to put colour and life into each of your statements instead of confining yourself to the task of placing upon record that severe reasoning from cause to effect which is really the only notable feature about the thing.” “It seems to me that I have done you full justice in the matter,” I remarked with some coldness, for I was repelled by the egotism which I had more than once observed to be a strong factor in my friend’s singular character. “No, it is not selfishness or conceit,” said he, answering, as was his wont, my thoughts rather than my words. “If I claim full justice for my art, it is because it is an impersonal thingーa thing beyond myself. Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell. You have degraded what should have been a course of lectures into a series of tales.” It was a cold morning of the early spring, and we sat after breakfast on either side of a cheery fire in the old room at Baker Street. A thick fog rolled down between the lines of dun-coloured houses, and the opposing windows loomed like dark, shapeless blurs through the heavy yellow wreaths. Our gas was lit and shone on the white cloth and glimmer of china and metal, for the table had not been cleared yet. Sherlock Holmes had been silent all the morning, dipping continuously into the advertisement columns of a succession of papers until at last, having apparently given up his search, he had emerged in no very sweet temper to lecture me upon my literary shortcomings. “At the same time,” he remarked after a pause, during which he had sat puffing at his long pipe and gazing down into the fire, “you can hardly be open to a charge of sensationalism, for out of these cases which you have been so kind as to interest yourself in, a fair proportion do not treat of crime, in its legal sense, at all. The small matter in which I endeavoured to help the King of Bohemia, the singular experience of Miss Mary Sutherland, the problem connected with the man with the twisted lip, and the incident of the noble bachelor, were all matters which are outside the pale of the law. But in avoiding the sensational, I fear that you may have bordered on the trivial.”＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 You can't sell yourself short if you've got a correct vision of yourself. If you're tired of doing the same things in the same way, you can decide to leave behind the life of mediocrity and pursue a life of greatness. #2 Life passed me by and I found myself questioning whether what I’m doing matters at all. I’m tempted to quit my job and try my luck elsewhere. I was born in 1961 and grew up in a small town in Western Pennsylvania. My family were the first generation in our family to go to college, and I went to college myself, earning a BS in History from the University of Pittsburgh. This was the early 1970s, and it was a different time, not much different from today’s. I was a typical product of the time: very politically active in college, where I espoused left-wing politics, including railing against the Vietnam War. But after college, the bloom came off the rose: the left-wing politics lost their appeal and I went into business altogether, working for several years for a small local business that stressed fiscal responsibility. I then had two children, got married, and bought a house. #3 You can't sell yourself short if you have a correct vision of yourself. If you're tired of doing the same things in the same way, you can decide to leave behind the life of mediocrity and pursue a life of greatness. #4 You can't sell yourself short if you have a correct vision of yourself.

＜p＞Note: This is a serial with a cliffhanger. Five books complete the story.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Mysteries deepen. A stalker. A gang of bank robbers. A kidnapping. Missing persons. An innocent child. And always the heart in search of love.＜/p＞ ＜p＞These are the forces at work in the lives of Ellen and Vovie. Separated by half a century, by life and death, yet inextricably bound in the pages of the diary. But who is reading it?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Mike Pierce, haunted by his past is driven to fight the bureaucracy. He must find Ellen and prove he is worthy of her. But where is she?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Vovie risks all to save a boy? What will it cost her? What does it matter if she has lost everything?＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the midst of fire heroes are forged and love is tested. Who will prevail in this taut, passionate romantic suspense thriller? The forces of darkness or of light?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Interview with the Author＜/p＞ ＜p＞Q. What makes the Passport to Passion Romantic Suspense series special?＜/p＞ ＜p＞A. When I set out to write a mystery series about Ellen and her Aunt Vovie, I wanted characters my readers of contemporary romance and romantic suspense could relate to. People who lived real lives and had the same hopes and dreams we all do. But I also wanted to give them a slice of life they may not enjoy. I've traveled to all the places Vovie has, and I'm happy to recreate those exotic locales and a bygone era for my readers. But I also love a good mystery and with lots of contemporary adult romance. Ellen is a lawyer so readers get a good legal thriller and a travel mystery.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Q. Where did you get the idea for the series?＜/p＞ ＜p＞A. I'm a very visual writer. I had an image of Ellen reading the first page of Vovie's journal entry and her shocked response. It didn't take me long to figure out the purpose of the journal, and that although the two women were separated by a generations, their lives had much in common. Ellen came into view as a very buttoned up but successful lawyer who had a few things to learn from her adventurous aunt and the story took off from there. I laughed myself silly at the opening, as did my writing group. But then I realized the story was going to take a darker, more serious turn and become a mystery, making me love writing it even more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Q. What's dark in the story?＜/p＞ ＜p＞A. Well, I'm not going to give you any spoilers, but if you like stalker romance, legal thrillers and romantic suspense, you'll be happy with this series. Just sayin'.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Q. In what order should I read the books?＜/p＞ ＜p＞A. The books are set up to be read from book 1 through to book 5. Some readers don't like cliffhangers so I've made the box set available so you can pour yourself a glass of wine, curl up in your favorite spot and binge read to your heart's content. Each book is not overly long but they are not shorts. Together they equal a full-length novel. There is a new element of the mystery and romance in each volume so it is necessary to read to the end. All the plot threads are revealed by the end of the series.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Trilogy-Married Guys Who ‘Stray to Gay’【電子書籍】[ Henry Pepper ]

＜p＞Normally, I would have gone to a friend's house and crashed on his couch, drank a few beers and ranted about how complicated women could be, but my best friend just happened to be out of town that weekend, of all weekend's to be gone, so I was left with nowhere to go and no one to moan at. That's probably how I ended up sitting in that dirty little bar down on Second Street, surrounded by people who had nothing better to do on a Friday than booze their cares away.＜br /＞ I took a seat near the end of the bar, away from the crowds, wanting to drink myself into a stupor, ignore everyone around me and be ignored except for the bartender who occasionally swung my way to give me another drink.＜br /＞ Back in college, when I'd been much more of a drinker, during those rough patches with my wife who was just my girlfriend back then, I would sometimes find myself in a dump like this filled with people looking for a quick hookup; I was the same, and I wasn’t too choosy who I ended up with either. A guy was as good as a girl, and my wife never got to know. I never felt guilty about it either. But since then, since my college days, I hadn't repeated any of that stuff again, the one night pickups, I mean.＜br /＞ I didn't have any intention to that night either until a guy slid onto the stool next to mine and ordered a drink from the bartender. I ignored him for a few minutes, crunching peanuts in my hands and sweeping the crumbs into a neat pile on the bar top. I would have been happy enough to ignore him all night and just get slowly drunk if he hadn't looked at me making a mess with the nuts and said, "You're supposed to eat those, not play with them."＜br /＞ It was a simple enough thing to say, just pleasant bar talk, something anyone probably would have said to get a conversation going, but considering my wife had just kicked me out and my only plan for the night was to sleep on the street or in the park, I wasn't in the mood to joke around＜br /＞ "Go ahead and eat them then," I replied without even glancing his way, “Help yourself.”＜br /＞ He paused, probably thinking I was just another morbid Friday night drunk, but then I saw his hand sneak over and grab a peanut from the pile. He had a tattoo circling round his middle finger, tiny words that I couldn't make out. That was enough to grab my attention and bring my face up to look at him, at his boyish face, his dark hair framing his brown eyes as he returned my look. He had more tattoos on his neck, disappearing under the collar of his shirt. I was staring.＜br /＞ "What's wrong?" he asked, throwing the peanut up in the air and catching it in his mouth, cool and easy, as if he did this all the time, and maybe he did. Maybe it was his party trick. "Like it?"＜br /＞ "No." I shook my head and looked away. I wasn’t impressed with his tricks.＜br /＞ "Bad night?" he asked, reaching for another peanut from the pile. Fine. I wasn't going to eat them anyway. Someone might as well.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Concise Self Defence Book【電子書籍】[ The Zeitgeist ]

＜p＞＜strong＞PREFACE＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞I was interested in martial arts as a kid, probably because I was lanky and skinny, and I guess physically weaker than some of the bigger boys at school. Without going into too much of my early years, they certainly were not the best years of my life. Apart from considering myself physically weak, I never knew my dad, and then at 16 my mum died, and so I went to live with my older sister and her husband.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Anyway, over the years, I've had a bit of a journey through the world of martial arts, trying Judo, Kung Fu, Karate, Taekwondo, Tang Soo Do. I collected some belts and grades, but never really excelled at any of them, and always had a feeling that I still needed to find a martial art that I felt truly comfortable with.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then about 25 years ago, at the ripe old age of 30, I came across a guy called Peter Brown, who was, and still is, a Ninjutsu sensei. He was, and is, the real deal. He is not big or intimidating, and certainly doesn't haven't the attitude and swagger of some "sensei's" I have seen. His art was that of the Ninja, and something clicked into place! That was because it was a huge subject, not purely physical martial art moves, but also traditional Japanese weapons, and mind techniques. And, very importantly, the thing that really resonated with me was understanding the core Ninjutsu belief of perseverance and never giving up. If plan "A" wasn't succeeding, then try plan "B". And then plan "C" if needs be, whatever it took to finally triumph. And the point was, this philosophy was not just rooted in a martial art context but could be applied to any situation in life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I think from a personal point of view, I completely related to this core belief. Apart from being orphaned at 16, I have experienced the death of other people very close to me and have felt the pain of divorce. And I've had more than a few heath scares-a punctured lung, a kidney operation, two heart procedures, and a knee operation. The key to getting through all that stuff, and ultimately triumphing over all of the challenges, was a deep-rooted belief in never giving up. I am now 57, a black belt in＜/p＞ ＜p＞Ninjutsu, and still learning. The point is, if I can overcome setbacks in life, so can anybody.＜/p＞ ＜p＞So what is my message to you? Quite simply, it is to be strong in everything. This is a message from someone who has been vulnerable emotionally, physically, and financially, and believe me, you don't want to be in that same position.＜/p＞ ＜p＞So please, consider your position in life, and get yourself strong in all aspects. Having education and skills, fitness, money, friends and family, they all help in the battle of life. Self-defence in its own right is just one of these attributes you need to have, but apart from the obvious benefit of protection, it may be the catalyst to strengthening all aspects of your life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Zeitgeist＜/p＞ ＜p＞The spirit of age, trend of thought, and feeling in a period＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞As a mother for many and a victim of workplace trauma and abuse at the hands of corporate care. There comes a time when you bend, break, or use art therapy to warp reality and rebuilt yourself to be the catalyst for the change that you desire. Change that has a purpose, when the spiritual representative of the continental land mass of Australia, turns up in a borrowed body, to motivate this multi-tasking mother to leave the arms of her lover and orchestrate universal expansion with the aid of cookies and cold tea. This story may be strange or an obvious repeat, of what you know. To have been written in code upon your DNA. With a spoonful of therapy to aid conversation and community connectivity. You will find this tale weird, yet to feel it strangely to be true. Weird they had called me as I sit amongst the fringe. Weird but good my co-workers said when I was the mouthpiece for their concerns. Weird but ours the family boasts as I worked myself to the bone to create for others a Sanctuary and for them a loving home. Now facing menopause and with a midlife crisis long overdue. I am embracing my weirdness to write stories to ignite change and conversation in people like you. I am the sober driver who will get you safely home. I am an Australian survivor and walked with the ME2 movement beating a drum. Why are we still burning fossil fuel instead of harnessing the sun. I am a frustrated woman who is raising her voice because my country has told me that climate change is no longer a choice. I am Nerak Coven.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Beautifully Broken【電子書籍】[ McKenzie Rockweiler ]

＜p＞This poetry book is about what my childhood trauma felt like, how I saw it, then how I grew as a person and started my healing process. As kids we observe the people around us, we take in everything we see, feel, and it becomes everything we know. Poetry is how I expressed myself from a very young age, in fact some of these poems I wrote when I was a kid, it is my inner child expressing herself when she felt the most vulnerable. I created these poems at the time to release all of my emotions in a healthy way. As I grew into the young woman I am today I kept expressing myself with poetry and art. I hope you find yourself within the words I have written, I hope that these poems inspire you, I hope this book can bring awareness too.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
