Where Do My Words Go is poetry as prayer, perhaps even faith. The words and sentences of ordinary language rarely fail us in making sense of life and expressing our thoughts to others, yet they often prove inadequate in describing the very things most dear to us, those things that well up from beauty and love, wonder and hope, suffering and loss. In those moments, we turn to poetry as a higher language by which we give solidity to that which we sense, but cannot fully describe. This is the reality that animates Bryant Burroughs as he describes "Things I hope are true."
Lies, deceit, and destruction divided the nation for decades. Back in 2080, the citizens had enough. A war to restore the country's honor took place. The new regime led by Chancellor Prumpt made any form of lying illegal. Now if anyone is caught lying, they are called in for questioning and killed on the spot if found guilty. Any citizen can report someone if they suspect them of lying. Present day: 2129Roger Aimes is a 28-year old mine worker living through the brutal system. All he can hope to do is live another day. Trying to change the country for everyone he's lost and the love of his life, Marela will certainly get him killed. Danny Eurig, a slick talking business mogul will do whatever it takes to remove the Chancellor from office. How will they ever manage to find trustworthy allies in a nation where making new connections equals increasing your chances of getting killed.
For countless individuals, corporate life has become synonymous with the 9-to-5 daily grind. Day after day, they find themselves confined within the rigid boundaries of office hours, adhering to strict schedules and limited autonomy. The conventional corporate environment often stifles creativity and restrains individuals from exploring their full potential. The predictable routine of a 9-to-5 job can quickly become suffocating, trapping individuals in a cycle of monotony and unfulfillment. Many people yearn for something with a greater sense of purpose and the freedom to pursue their passions beyond the confines of a traditional job. It is precisely this desire for more that ignites the flame of corporate entrepreneurship. The limitations of a single income source have become increasingly apparent in a rapidly evolving economy. The traditional notion of relying solely on a paycheck from a 9-to-5 job is no longer a guarantee of financial stability or security. The ever-changing landscape of industries and the rise of automation and artificial intelligence have rendered certain job roles obsolete, leaving individuals vulnerable to sudden job loss or economic downturns. To thrive in the modern era, individuals must embrace the concept of multiple income streams. Rather than relying solely on a single employer, corporate entrepreneurs understand the importance of diversifying their sources of income. By doing so, they safeguard themselves against unexpected setbacks and create opportunities for exponential growth and financial abundance.

Who's dead? Who did it? Where's the money?Jason Brinkman's career at a big Los Angeles law firm is over because he refused to sleep with his senior partner. He's moved to sleepy Sea Cliff on California's Central Coast to begin again. He has a struggling solo law practice and a promising romance. When kids discover a body in a storm drain, his new life begins to unravel.Kirkus Reviews: A lawyer leaves Los Angeles for life in a small town but finds it full of thieves, murderers, and too many women in this mystery. Chain-smoking Jason Brinkman, in his mid-30s and once a highly paid associate at an LA law firm, struggles financially after moving to Sea Cliff on the coast. Unknown to him, it's a town nearly everyone is dying to get out of, at least one of them literally. An abundance of intriguing characters doing really bad things moves Cameron's engaging story quickly to the finish line.... Writing can be first rate.... A cesspool of miscreants floods a strong tale of conscience and crime. Kirkus' verdict: Get it!Storeybook Reviews: This mystery has many twists and turns that kept me wondering what could possibly happen next .... The book is peppered with a variety of characters from the despicable to the endearing, but mostly on the former end of the scale. However, all of these characters make the book flow and add dimension to the story line. Plus, it gives you a lot of suspects!
"The father's revenge begins after losing his daughter to a sexual crime."「피해자」(The Victim) is a Korean-style crime novel that has received rave reviews from Korean readers. And it's a story about the pain, anger, and despair of victims of violent crimes."[Exclusive Report] Serial killings occur throughout Seoul. All victims are identified as male with past sexual offenses. Police are investigating the murders as hate crimes targeting sex offenders."If such an article were reported today, what kind of reaction would people show? Would they mourn their deaths, or would they mock and rejoice in the notion that those who died got what they deserved? Seeing the praise and support poured out for a YouTuber who recently disclosed the identity of a rape and attempted murder suspect in Korea, it seems that the average person has little interest in the rights of criminals. However, on the other hand, there is a significant number of people who argue that even the rights of these criminals should be protected. But can the scholars and wise men, who argue for the protection of the rights of criminals who have annihilated the rights of their victims, maintain the same argument if they or their family members become victims of violent crimes? Could they still say the same if their own family were murdered, sexually assaulted, or tormented?In a civilized society based on the rule of law, private sanctions (such as revenge or retaliation) by victims against criminals are treated as criminal acts themselves. In Korea, even a victim pushed to the brink of life-threatening danger and defending themselves with their fists can fail to be recognized as acting in self-defense and instead be punished for mutual assault, which has become a subject of social controversy. Furthermore, if a victim publicly declares, 'I have been victimized by so-and-so, ' they can be prosecuted for defaming the criminal's honor. The Korean judicial system excessively protects the rights of criminals, to the extent that police cannot subdue a knife-wielding criminal with a gun but must plead, 'Please, put down the knife.'「피해자」(The Victim) is a work that provokes much thought about the rights of victims, the rights of criminals, and private retribution. Starting with the protagonist's monologue, 'Can I really kill people?' the story introduces a subject never before explored in Korean literature-the serial killings of sex offenders. The protagonist loses his only daughter and wife to a sexual crime. Subsequently, he falls into a state of despair and reclusion. He even contemplates suicide. However, he changes his mind and decides to embark on a path of vengeance. He then proceeds to serially kill sex offenders.「피해자」(The Victim) was written in simple and easy sentences. There are no scenes that stimulate the reader's peripheral nerves, such as suffocating suspense, thrill, and shocking twist, but large and small dramatic elements such as events, conflicts between characters, and inner conflicts appear every chapter. Therefore, I keep turning the page because I am curious about the next content. The artist's storytelling skills, which deal with the speed of storytelling through adjusting the length of sentences, paragraphs, and chapters, are also shown. In addition, careful descriptions of the spatial background, the appearance, behavior, and psychology of the characters add to the literary fun.

A finales de los años noventa el gobierno dominicano comenzó a pagar deuda administrativa entregando a los acreedores bonos por el valor nominal auditado de sus expedientes. Los intereses trimestrales los pagaba puntualmente y se estableció que a vencimiento el capital se aceptaría para pagar obligaciones tributarias. Con esos bonos más otras emisiones similares se fue creando el mercado secundario de valores públicos del 2000 al 2004. En ese período se dan las primeras dos emisiones de bonos soberanos y se avanza en la conformación de la Dirección General de Crédito Público. Los efectos de la quiebra de bancos múltiples provocaron que se renegociaran los bonos soberanos y que el gobierno iniciara las reformas económicas que le permitieran volver a emitir valores. Así lo hizo y pasó de estar expresamente prohibido invertir ahorro previsional en títulos de Hacienda a recibir en subastas de bonos internos una demanda cuatro veces más alta que la oferta anunciada. En los mercados internacionales logró ir colocando cada vez mayores montos a plazos más largas, tasas menores y hasta emitir bonos en pesos dominicanos. La oposición política veía en este éxito un anatema, criticaba que era insostenible, que estaba en esquema Ponzi y que había que volver a los acreedores multilaterales con préstamos vinculados a obras de inversión pública. Pero en el poder ha dado continuidad a la emisión de valores para financiar el déficit y las amortizaciones de cada presupuesto. Ahora la oposición le toma prestado los discursos insensatos contra la deuda o señala con razón el aumento de la carga del pago de intereses. Este libro recoge los artículos de opinión del autor publicados en Acento.com.do desde el 2010 sobre el origen y debates de la deuda pública, los participantes del mercado de valores y tópicos como educación financiera bursátil, ahorro previsional, la intención de golpe de estado a las administradoras de fondos de pensiones y la devolución del 30% de los fondos a los cotizantes.

"Mein Kampf holds an undeniable place in history as theautobiography of Adolf Hitler. The book's title translates"My Struggle" in English, and it serves as both an account ofHitler's carly life and political views, as well as a manifestooutlining his vision for Germany.Adolf Hitler wrote "Mein Kampf during his imprisonmentfollowing the failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923. During his timein prison, Hitler believed he could use the book to promote hisideas and gain public support. "Mein Kampf was intended tobe a persuasive tool to rally followers, unite various factions ofthe Nazi Party, and win over potential sympathizers to hisuse. It also aimed to establish Hitler as the leader of the Nazi movement.In the book, Hitler expounds on his racist beliefs, anti-Semiticviews, disdain for demnocracy, and his desire for territorialexpansion. The book laid the groundwork for the Nazi party'spropaganda and ideology, shaping the trajectory of Germanhistory and leading to the atrocities committed during WorldWar II."Mein Kampf" remains a chilling testament to the power ofpropaganda, the danger of extremist ideologies, and theimportance of learning from history to prevent such tragediesfrom recurring in the future.

La storia d'amore a distanza che appassiona centinaia di migliaia di persone su Instagram dal 2016, si presenta ora in un nuovo grande formato coerente con le dimensioni originali delle opere dell'artista che ha aperto nuovi orizzonti nell'erotismo illustrato, grazie a una dolce prospettiva romantica capace di fare breccia in ogni parte del mondo. "Frida Castelli è solo una tra gli otto miliardi di persone sulla Terra. Vive e lavora a Milano e ha una vita come tante.Un giorno, tra le infinite combinazioni possibili, incontra un uomo di cui non ci ha mai svelato il nome e da quel momento il suo passato perde qualunque importanza: esistono solo il presente del tempo insieme e il futuro atteso.Le loro vite sono lontane: a unirle sono le camere d'albergo. La vita di Frida diventa un contare i minuti, le ore, i giorni, un misurare le distanze per attraversare gli elementi: acqua, aria e terra si possono percorrere con ogni mezzo per incontrarsi di nuovo.Ciò che avviene nel frattempo è solitudine martellante che rischia di annullare la sua persona.Carta e matite, colori e pennelli sublimano l'attesa, neutralizzano lo spazio e il tempo della separazione. La quotidianità diventa pura concentrazione, dialogo interiore, pienezza che nutre e allontana dal baratro.Una volta al giorno, tutti i giorni, l'arte nata all'improvviso rievoca la perfezione dell'amore vissuto e le possibilità di quello anelato, nutrendosi di impeti e cura, di passione e perseveranza, di dettagli e di assoluto.Per sempre, fin quando durerà".

Frida's life becomes a counting of minutes, hours, days - a measuring of distances to traverse the elements: water, air, and land, all navigated by any means to reunite.Meanwhile, the relentless solitude threatens to erase her being.Paper and pencils, colors and brushes elevate the wait, neutralizing the space and time of separation. Everyday life becomes pure concentration, inner dialogue, a fullness that nourishes and distances from the abyss.Once a day, every day, the art born suddenly recalls the perfection of lived love and the possibilities of the longed-for one, fueled by impulses and care, passion and perseverance, details, and the absolute.Forever, for as long as it will last."

A PRACTICAL MANUAL FOR PROFESSIONALS, UNDERSTANDABLE BY BEGINNERS[ INTRODUCTIONThis work is published to offer the general public some knowledge of which they are either thoroughly ignorant or, more commonly, they misunderstand, but also to make the work of Psychics and Mystics easier.Occultism is a positive science because it is based on experiments. The Alchemists of the Middle Ages, many of whom paid with their lives for their investigation or were considered sorcerers or madmen, sought to achieve the transmutation of matter, laying the foundations for today's science that can do it, and no one disputes it.Occult sciences explore the vast field of both the visible and invisible world, which are rich in mysteries, and work to discover the link between them; with each discovery, they restore the reference points as connecting links so that the occultist can intervene between cause and effect.Therefore, occultism is not the denial of science but science in its most comprehensive form, which includes within its limits the absolute and the infinite.Occultism teaches the inseparable interdependence between phenomena and events, cause and effect. But the occultist has the freedom to choose the path they will follow. Predestination is presented as a general framework in which we move. There are always development opportunities, and we can help events unfold according to our wishes.The three keys with which the coherence of cause and effect is deciphered are the following: Synchronicity, Correspondence, and Coordination. The place and date of a human's birth define their identity more than their form or name. The where and when -an idea is born or a task is started- shapes its dynamics.>[SYMBOLS ON THE ALTARAbout the Triad.Three is the first non-composite number and, according to Iamblichus, the leader of the return of the past. The Triad is not the sum of one and two (therefore non-composite).While the Dyad contains the first two manifested elements in Nature (Motion and Life), the Triad is the manifestation of the Monad in Creation.Theon observes that the Triad with the Monad and the Dyad creates by composition the number six, which is the first perfect number, and Aristotle calls three a law based on which everything is ordered. With the Triad, the World exists, argues Hermes Trismegistus.>About the Tetrad.The Pythagoreans called the first Tetrad of numbers "Tetraktys" because they were created by the composition of the Ten, which numerologically returns to the source, the Monad, from which everything begins.The Tetrad is considered to include all the development of spirit manifestation down to the physical realm and return to cause.Tetraktys is the source of eternal nature, as included in the Pythagorean oath. Iamblichus describes the existence within nature as a result of the Tetrad, saying that it is the creator and cause of all things.Triangular numbers, with the formula [N (N]1)] /2, are derived from Tetraktys.Hierocles mentions that the first solid shape (pyramid) is in the Tetrad because the point corresponds to the Unit, the straight line to the Dyad, the surface (triangle) to the Triad, and the solid corresponds to the Tetrad. By the Tetrad the tetrahedron is formed, of which the Triad produces the base, the Dyad the edge, and the Monad the vertex.The Tetrad is the result of the creative act of the Triad. This dynamic manifestation ...]

Ponds are the most fabulous place for discovering all kinds of wonderful things! There are plants, insects, birds... and, of course, beautiful green frogs.
