Summary

A Grim Almanac of Leicestershire is a day-by-day catalogue of 366 macabre moments from the county’s past.
Featured here are such diverse tales as mining disasters, freak weather conditions, industrial catastrophes, train crashes and tragic accidents, including the Oadby woman who was killed by a wasp sting in 1925 and Dorothy Cain, who performed her first ever parachute jump in 1926 — without her parachute. Among the murders detailed in this volume are the assisted suicide of the vicar of Hungerton in 1925, and the unsolved ‘Green Bicycle Murder’ of 1919 at Little Stretton.
Generously illustrated with 100 pictures, this chronicle is an entertaining and readable record of Leicestershire’s grim past. Read on ... if you dare!
Available since: 05/01/2014.

    Cracking the Code 
    What you're about to witness and make your own are nine effective approaches to unraveling a common pain pattern that, ironically, often goes unrecognized! 
    + About 70% of my clients come in with hip/back imbalances: 
    + More than half of those have already seen other practitioners, unsuccessfully. 
    + Discovery happens during assessments. 
    + The code will be the correct sequence of techniques that pinpoint and ease the real  culprit(s) causing the imbalance. 
    Why nine approaches? 
    + Nine client complaints give us enough choices to begin narrowing down the search. 
    + Verbal and visual input reflects recent changes in habitual movements, trauma, stress, and environment. 
    + Body feedback during assessment palpations directs with less guesswork. 
    +Fibrotic tissue and unexpected joint fixations, for example, often tell us to slow down, modify, or switch to the nearest technique. 
    + Consider these systematic techniques to be a giant, living flowchart, with enough overlap and process of elimination to find your clients’ unique pathways.

    The Story of Paul - the early years

    This book is about Paul, the apostle who had an amazing revelation of the love of God the Father expressed through Jesus Christ his beloved Son.  The revelation of the God who was in Christ. 
       How did Paul receive such an incredible revelation? 
      How was this legalistic Jewish Pharisee who persecuted the early church transformed into the man who has this profound revelation? 
    Who was the man behind the words? 
      What was the back story?  
    Paul’s story unfolds in the pages of the New Testament.  His story is pieced together from the account written by Luke in the Acts of the Apostles along with some pieces of biographical information scattered through the thirteen letters written by Paul himself. 
      This book also explores Paul's revelation and teaching because they are relevant for the Church today.  Paul saw things with the eyes of his heart that very few have seen, and he still has much to teach us.  
    James Jordan says of this book, “In this very easy to read, informative and entertaining book by my friend, brother and fellow servant of the Body of Christ, Trevor Galpin, you will be introduced to Paul in a deeper and more full way than I have ever known to be in print.   This is the story of Paul.
