  Fire Eaters - The People and...

  Throughout history, when threatened by wildfires our only defense was to pray for rain and run—until aircraft changed the way we fight fires. Beginning with the Canadian "H-Boats" in 1924, aircraft have become indispensable in detecting and extinguishing wildfires. Fire Eaters tells the incredible stories of the Ontario Provincial Air Service, the first government aerial fire suppression organization in history; one of its pilots, Carl Crossley, who invented the water scoop-up and drop-off system; and the Canadair CL-215, the first purpose-built water bomber. 
   
   
   
  Today, helicopters with "Bambi Buckets" and snorkels can dump water while hovering directly over the flames, and Air Tractors and Dash 8-400AT air tankers not only perform a crucial role in saving communities but also protect our ecosystem. Satellites—unmanned aircraft able to fly for sixteen hours, even overnight when manned aircraft do not—and artificial intelligence already play a decisive role in fire management. 
   
   
   
  But it is the men and women of the aerial fire service who have really changed the way we fight fire around the world. Their bravery and dedication mean that response times are fast, fires can be contained sooner, and people have the chance to save rather than lose everything.

  Control irritable bowel syndrome...

  Who is this hypnosis for:If you have been diagnosed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome and:- medication has not worked for you or- you want to avoid medication and find a more natural way to deal with the IBS symptoms... this hypnosis will be useful.It will help you soothe your symptoms (stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation) and, if used regularly, it will support your healing.How it works:As you probably know, there is no physical cause for the IBS symptoms, our intestines simply stop functioning harmoniously. Medication is hardly helpful, as it will usually address the effects of this disturbance but not its cause.Because of this, the diagnosis is never pleasant. Living with the ailment can be quite a challenge (disturbing our work, relationships, free time). Yet, here is a piece of good news:While all our body parts are responsive to hypnosis, our digestive tract is much more so. It has been discovered that there is a deep connection between our brain and our digestive tract. The latter even contains about 100 million nerve cells and some call it our "abdominal brain".This means that it is entirely possible for our intestines, when given the right suggestions under trance, to calm down. With its intelligence and sensitivity, our digestive tract picks up the positive message and slowly shifts back into normal functioning, while the unpleasant symptoms ameliorate or disappear completely.This 29 min hypnosis is designed for this.My recommendation: try if for 3 days (once a day, at a time convenient for you). If you feel it is working for you, continue with it on a daily basis – this way, you will consolidate the results and support your healing.Disclaimer:The products sold here do not replace medical or psychological therapy. Please take your time when listening to the audio downloads and stop doing anything else that might distract you, e.g., don't use them while working or driving a car.ENJOY!Yours Dr. Nidal MoughrabiLife-Coach, MDHypnotherapy, NLP and Meditation Training

  In Love in a Time of Climate Change: Honoring Creation, Establishing Justice, author Sharon Delgado invites readers to embark on a deepening journey of faith that integrates personal spirituality with action for climate justice. The book explains and demonstrates a process of discernment through which to reflect on the challenge of climate change and to discern a faithful response based on Jesus’s teaching to love God above all and our neighbors as ourselves.  
  This revised edition updates the facts. It presents what climate scientists say now about our rapidly heating planet, its causes, impacts, progression, and likely future scenarios. It describes the global movement for climate justice and engages with major conversations taking place about climate change today.  
  This edition builds on the book’s primary themes. Its premise is that in this time of climate change, loving God must include honoring God’s creation and loving our neighbors must include working to establish justice. We are called to honor and care for creation, the interconnected community of life of which we humans are a part, because creation is an expression of the presence and love of God. We are called to work to establish justice because in this time of globalized environmental harm we can’t always see the links of interdependence, responsibility, and systemic exploitation that tie us to our global neighbors. Working for climate justice for the wellbeing of all is an expression of loving our neighbors, near and far, present and future. 
  This book is an invitation to move beyond self-preoccupation and to expand our understanding of who we are and why we are here on this incomparable planet in this time of unprecedented challenge. Love in a Time of Climate Change offers a way to rise to the occasion: to face the truth about the realities of climate change, follow the light, and live with love into the future as children of the earth, children of the universe, children of God.
