After an interval of some months or years, and at Phlius, a town of Peloponnesus, the tale of the last hours of Socrates is narrated to Echecrates and other Phliasians by Phaedo the 'beloved disciple.' The Dialogue necessarily takes the form of a narrative, because Socrates has to be described acting as well as speaking. The minutest particulars of the event are interesting to distant friends, and the narrator has an equal interest in them. During the voyage of the sacred ship to and from Delos, which has occupied thirty days, the execution of Socrates has been deferred. (Compare Xen. Mem.) The time has been passed by him in conversation with a select company of disciples. But now the holy season is over, and the disciples meet earlier than usual in order that they may converse with Socrates for the last time. Those who were present, and those who might have been expected to be present, are mentioned by name. There are Simmias and Cebes (Crito), two disciples of Philolaus whom Socrates 'by his enchantments has attracted from Thebes' (Mem.), Crito the aged friend, the attendant of the prison, who is as good as a friend-these take part in the conversation. There are present also, Hermogenes, from whom Xenophon derived his information about the trial of Socrates (Mem.), the 'madman' Apollodorus (Symp.), Euclid and Terpsion from Megara (compare Theaet.), Ctesippus, Antisthenes, Menexenus, and some other less-known members of the Socratic circle, all of whom are silent auditors. Aristippus, Cleombrotus, and Plato are noted as absent. Almost as soon as the friends of Socrates enter the prison Xanthippe and her children are sent home in the care of one of Crito's servants. Socrates himself has just been released from chains, and is led by this circumstance to make the natural remark that 'pleasure follows pain.' (Observe that Plato is preparing the way for his doctrine of the alternation of opposites.) 'Aesop would have represented them in a fable as a two-headed creature of the gods.' The mention of Aesop reminds Cebes of a question which had been asked by Evenus the poet (compare Apol.): 'Why Socrates, who was not a poet, while in prison had been putting Aesop into verse?'-'Because several times in his life he had been warned in dreams that he should practise music; and as he was about to die and was not certain of what was meant, he wished to fulfil the admonition in the letter as well as in the spirit, by writing verses as well as by cultivating philosophy. Tell this to Evenus; and say that I would have him follow me in death.' 'He is not at all the sort of man to comply with your request, Socrates.' 'Why, is he not a philosopher?' 'Yes.' 'Then he will be willing to die, although he will not take his own life, for that is held to be unlawful.'

Full text.The Cather's first masterpiece tells the stories of an orphaned boy from Virginia, Jim Burden, and the elder daughter in a family of Bohemian immigrants, Ántonia Shimerda, who are each brought as children to be pioneers in Nebraska towards the end of the 19th century. Both the pioneers who first break the prairie sod for farming, as well as of the harsh but fertile land itself, feature in this American novel. The first year in the very new place leaves strong impressions in both children, affecting them lifelong.Quote: "Nothing happened. I did not expect anything to happen. I was something that lay under the sun and felt it, like the pumpkins, and I did not want to be anything more. I was entirely happy. Perhaps we feel like that when we die and become a part of something entire, whether it is sun and air, or goodness and knowledge. At any rate, that is happiness; to be dissolved into something complete and great. When it comes to one, it comes as naturally as sleep."

Merriam Press Siegrunen Monograph 5. Third Edition (2013).Frontfighters is based on the book Legionsminner-Trekk Av Den Norske Legions Historie which was originally assembled by the Norwegian SS War Correspondent E. Jul Christiansen Furum in 1943. The original publisher was Viking Vorlag, Oslo, 1943. The first English language translation of this work was published by Roger Hunt in 1986.Regarding the original publication, this has been maintained roughly the same throughout, although some of the picture captions have been changed or descriptive material added to give a clearer view of things. It should also be borne in mind that the text appearing in the middle of the book is a translation of the actual combat reports and citations relating to the unit at the time, and not postwar additions. Preceding the original work, Mr. Landwehr's detailed introduction reveals much previously unknown about the Legion and its successor, the SS Skijäger Battalion "Norge." All the illustrations in this section unless credited otherwise are from his extensive collection of Waffen-SS photos.Thus a product of wartime propaganda whose original purpose is nearly forgotten, becomes, some decades later, a remarkable sample of military photo journalism when allowed to stand on its own merits.This entirely new and improved edition has been completely reformatted. The photographs have been enhanced using current computer methods and in most cases quality is better than that in the 1986 edition, and even the original wartime edition.Contents: Publisher's NoteDedicationOriginal PrefaceForeword by Vidkun QuislingThe SS Volunteer Legion "Norwegen", 1941-1943 by Richard LandwehrThe SS-Skijäger Battalion "Norge", 1943-1945 by Richard LandwehrThe following material is from the original Norwegian wartime book and comprises the bulk of this new edition: Combat and Ideals: A Glimpse of the Saga of the Norwegian LegionNorwegian SpiritLegionnairesOrdersThe Norwegian Legion in the Field, December 27, 1942: Orders of the New YearOrders of the Day, 19 February 1943Battle-Group Special Orders, 2 March 1943Brigade Special Orders Number 4/43, 2 March 1943PhotographsIn Memoriam: The Legion's Dead210 photos11 illustrations1 map

Breaking the chains of a psychopath and a Sociopath is a book aimed at helping people recover from the terrible, horrific emotional and psychological turmoil that a Psychopathic/ Sociopathic abuse situation may have brought in their lives. It will help readers understand and process the experience and move on. Revenge on the abuser is impossible as well as unhealthy. You should concentrate on looking after yourself. Once you have honestly and objectively realized and identified that you are dealing with a Psychopath or Sociopath (whether in a relationship, at work, in a committee/organization or even in your own family) you must walk away from them and leave them for good. You should never be concerned about hurting them because psychopaths cannot be 'hurt'. To them, you are nothing but an object. If a Psychopath/Sociopath walks away from you, then his book will show you how to heal from it. If you are mourning 'the good old days', remember that what you think you are missing is not the person but the persona. Once established, and your deluded sense of missing the psychopath has passed, something truly remarkable occurs: the target turns the tables and the 'hunted thus becomes the hunter'. The beauty of this book is that it will show you how victims can use the fantastic tool of No Contact Ever Again of personal and emotional liberation without doing anything much. This book is so empowering. It is a must read for everyone.

L'il John Roberts says "John Lamb's knowledge helped me think a lot differently when it comes to "correct" ergonomic drumming, along with how to maintain good posture, especially for someone like myself who has to play huge arenas for long periods of time. Thank you John!" Thomas Pridgen says "This book is amazing!" John "J.R." Robinson says "I love it!" Gerald Heyward says "I love this book, it is great." Chris Dave says "Itz mad cool." Clayton Cameron says "Anatomy of a Drumming gives us the topography to healthy and lengthy careers." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Drummers are athletes. Playing the drums requires the skilled use of your entire body. Unfortunately, most books on playing drums focus exclusively on what notes to play, and give little or no attention to how they should be made. This leaves drummers with a problem. Misunderstanding the mechanics of movement leads to frustration, because it makes learning new techniques harder, limits your abilities when techniques don't work like they should, and causes injury when unhealthy technique wears down your body. The solution is simple: Anatomy of Drumming is your guide to moving well, learning faster and avoiding injury. When you understand the mechanics of moving, you will know for yourself how techniques work. Anatomy of Drumming is both a description of how the body works, as well as a prescription for how to move better, taking you through what you need to know about the body in order to use it more effectively. It covers the anatomy and physics of pedal technique, grip, Moeller technique, set up the drumset to your body and many other important topics. Through learning about the proper use of the body at the drums, you will be able to learn faster, play with better facility and reduce injury.

Besides your roller coasters, carousels, and Ferris wheels, a staple attraction of any major amusement park is the drop tower ride. While common today, these freefall attractions don't have a long, hundred-year history like the roller coaster or amusement park. The first tower rides didn't appear until the 1980s and didn't start catching on until the 1990s when the technology and ride experience improved enough to make them "can't miss" attractions.

While Bannen had every intention of finding adventure, being yanked through a magical portal two continents away isn't quite what he imagined happening. For that matter, being magically bound to a mage-in-training hadn't ever crossed his mind. Being the first human familiar ever summoned in Corcoran? Not on his to-do list.Rena certainly needs all of the help that she can get, as her magic is very different, inhibiting her of the normal shields and protections. Everyone says her summoning a human familiar is a mistake, that she needs to break the bond and send Bannen back.But Bannen doesn't like this idea, not one iota. Renata Rocci has the magic of a Grim Reaper, the heart of a lion, and a body too frail to keep up with either. She can face assassins; meddlesome mages; politicians; and legendary, nightmarish monsters without flinching. Without losing and that's sexy as sin. This is definitely not the adventure he signed up for. It's far, far better.

Die Selbstbetrachtungen des römischen Kaisers Marc Aurel sind die letzte bedeutende Hinterlassenschaft aus der philosophischen Schule der jüngeren Stoa. Sie werden zur Weltliteratur gezählt. Entstanden sind sie am Ende von Mark Aurels Herrschaft in Feldlagern an der Nordgrenze des Römischen Reiches. In einer Vielzahl persönlicher Beobachtungen aphoristischen Zuschnitts entfaltet der Kaiser dabei sein Weltbild im Selbstdialog. Maßgebliche Richtschnur für das eigene Denken und Handeln waren ihm die Einordnung in und die Übereinstimmung mit der "Allnatur". Vernunftleitung und Gemeinwohlorientierung gehören zu den in zahlreichen Wendungen variierten Konstanten der Selbstbetrachtungen, zu denen Mark Aurel auch die Rückwirkungen seines Amtes auf die eigene Person antrieben: "Verkaisere nicht!"

In short, The Richest Man in Babylon is a series of the most powerful financial parables ever written. These stories are set in ancient Babylon and relate the story of a Babylonian slave who uses the secrets of the book to become man of great wealth. Each story has a concrete point that becomes apparent from reading and digesting the message. These points are basic tenets of how to become successful in business. This book is perfect if you learn by reading the experiences of others. The entire book is told in a story-like format, so it often goes down much like reading a collection of short stories. The lessons and principles in The Richest Man In Babylon are pretty simple and to the point. The book consists of different stories back in the Babylonian days. The Richest Man in Babylon documented everything he had learned and his progress on clay tablets, which were later found in the 1930's by archaeologists and professors at a university. These professors had then learned of these principles and applied them to their own lives, to also become wealthy and financially abundant.
"There's no such thing as coincidence." The grandfather of alien abduction and UFO sightings provides us with a tremendous record of unusual occurrences reported and documented all over the world. Examples of the odd phenomena include the occult, supernatural, and paranormal. Reported events include teleportation (a term Fort is generally credited with coining); poltergeist events; falls of frogs, fishes, inorganic materials of an amazing range; unaccountable noises and explosions; spontaneous fires; levitation; ball lightning (a term explicitly used by Fort); unidentified flying objects; unexplained disappearances; giant wheels of light in the oceans; and animals found outside their normal ranges. Fort was first person to explain alien abduction and was an early proponent of the extraterrestrial hypothesis, specifically suggesting that strange lights or object sighted in the skies might be alien spacecraft.

Thank you for checking out this book by Theophania Publishing. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you soon. We have thousands of titles available, and we invite you to search for us by name, contact us via our website, or download our most recent catalogues. In these pages I shall speak of The Wisdom of Life in the common meaning of the term, as the art, namely, of ordering our lives so as to obtain the greatest possible amount of pleasure and success; an art the theory of which may be called Eudaemonology, for it teaches us how to lead a happy existence. Such an existence might perhaps be defined as one which, looked at from a purely objective point of view, or, rather, after cool and mature reflection-for the question necessarily involves subjective considerations, -would be decidedly preferable to non-existence; implying that we should cling to it for its own sake, and not merely from the fear of death; and further, that we should never like it to come to an end. Now whether human life corresponds, or could possibly correspond, to this conception of existence, is a question to which, as is well-known, my philosophical system returns a negative answer. On the eudaemonistic hypothesis, however, the question must be answered in the affirmative; and I have shown, in the second volume of my chief work (ch. 49), that this hypothesis is based upon a fundamental mistake. Accordingly, in elaborating the scheme of a happy existence, I have had to make a complete surrender of the higher metaphysical and ethical standpoint to which my own theories lead; and everything I shall say here will to some extent rest upon a compromise; in so far, that is, as I take the common standpoint of every day, and embrace the error which is at the bottom of it. My remarks, therefore, will possess only a qualified value, for the very word eudaemonology is a euphemism. Further, I make no claims to completeness; partly because the subject is inexhaustible, and partly because I should otherwise have to say over again what has been already said by others.

In Beyond Good and Evil, Nietzsche accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically, he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man, rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man. The work moves into the realm "beyond good and evil" in the sense of leaving behind the traditional morality which Nietzsche subjects to a destructive critique in favour of what he regards as an affirmative approach that fearlessly confronts the perspectival nature of knowledge and the perilous condition of the modern individual.
