The Mayan prophecy of the end of times in December of 2012 has ignited strong debate about its validity, particularly among younger people and those with minimal involvement in religion. It has spawned an internet industry of entrepreneurs intent on providing appropriately pricy survival gear to assist in surviving the ill-defined horrors to come. It is the purpose of this work to explore the origins of the Mayan predicitons as well as the those of Nostradamus whose work is seen by many to be intertwined with the Mayan prediciton. Organized religion has been slow to comment upon the Biblical perspective of end of time predictions. In fact, the Bible has a distinct description of unfolding history as it relates to God's plan for the future. Unfortunately, it is couched in difficult to decipher prophetic language. It is the prupose of this work to make that description easier to understand and relate it to the Mayan prediction.

In 1961, pilot Robert M. White flew a hypersonic rocket-powered airplane six times faster than the speed of sound and higher than 300,000 feet above the Earth's surface. This is his story. Tracing his childhood on the rough streets of Manhattan during the Depression, his years as a pilot and POW during World War II, his service in Korea and Vietnam and his rise as an experimental test pilot in the Air Force, this autobiography is a testament to the role of persistence and excellence in the life of a man whose aeronautical feats are now legend. It is the portrait of an extraordinary man in pursuit of the American dream and a glimpse into a remarkable time in America's aviation history.

Sam Hughes

This book is based on the public career of a highly controversial Canadian, Sam Hughes 1885–1916. He is one of the most colourful, even bizarre, figures in Canadian history. Though he died in 1921, his name can still conjure up controversy and not a little misunderstanding. His long career—in so many respects the quintessential story of a poor backwoods Ontario farm boy who made good by his own efforts—continues to exert a fascination that few other Canadian political figures could duplicate. Even though there has never been a major scholarly study of Sam Hughes, historians and other writers have developed definite opinions about him, and they are held nearly as vigorously as those of ...

1812

Listen to a short interview with Jon Latimer Host: Chris Gondek - Producer: Heron & Crane In the first complete history of the War of 1812 written from a British perspective, Jon Latimer offers an authoritative and compelling account that places the conflict in its strategic context within the Napoleonic wars. The British viewed the War of 1812 as an ill-fated attempt by the young American republic to annex Canada. For British Canada, populated by many loyalists who had fled the American Revolution, this was a war for survival. The Americans aimed both to assert their nationhood on the global stage and to expand their territory northward and westward. Americans would later find in this war m...
