Beschreibung

"The Conquering Power" is a silent film treasure that showcases Rudolph Valentino's dramatic range, set against the backdrop of a classic love and inheritance conflict. This film adapts Honoré de Balzac's "Eugénie Grandet," focusing on the struggles between love, greed, and the quest for personal freedom. Valentino's portrayal of Charles Grandet highlights his ability to convey deep emotional turmoil and the resilience of the human spirit, as his character navigates familial discord and the challenges of true love. The film is celebrated for its poignant narrative, compelling performances, and its exploration of the transformative power of love and integrity.

    Becoming Free Indeed - My Story...

    Read by the author. 
    New York Times Bestseller on disentangling faith but keep your belief in Jesus intact. Jinger Vuolo, the sixth child in the famous Duggar family of TLC's 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On, recounts how she began to question the unhealthy ideology of her youth and learned to embrace true freedom in Christ. 
    When Jinger Duggar Vuolo was growing up, she was convinced that obeying the rules was the key to success and God's favor. She zealously promoted the Basic Life Principles of Bill Gothard,fastidiously obeying the modesty guidelines (no shorts or jeans, only dresses),eagerly submitting to the umbrella of authority (any disobedience of parents would place her outside God's protection), promoting the relationship standard of courtship, andavoiding any music with a worldly beat, among others. 
      
    Jinger, along with three of her sisters, wrote a New York Times bestseller about their religious convictions. She believed this level of commitment would guarantee God's blessing, even though in private she felt constant fear that she wasn't measuring up to the high standards demanded of her. 
    In Becoming Free Indeed, Jinger shares how in her early twenties, a new family member—a brother-in-law who didn't grow up in the same tight-knit conservative circle as Jinger—caused her to examine her beliefs. He was committed to the Bible, but he didn't believe many of the things Jinger had always assumed were true. His influence, along with the help of a pastor named Jeremy Vuolo, caused Jinger to see that her life was built on rules, not God's Word. 
    Jinger committed to studying the Bible—truly understanding it—for the first time. What resulted was an earth-shaking realization: much of what she'd always believed about God, obedience to His Word, and personal holiness wasn't in-line with what the Bible teaches. 
    Now with a renewed faith of personal conviction, Becoming Free Indeed shares what it was like living under the tenants of Bill Gothard, the Biblical truth that changed her perspective, and how she disentangled her faith with her belief in Jesus intact.

    The finest book on Britain's most popular rock 'n' roll band'Read on … It's all true' Noel Gallagher 
    Featuring an exclusive interview with Noel Gallagher and bespoke artwork by celebrated Oasis album designer Brian Cannon 
    Think Oasis was just Britpop and brawls? 
    Think again. 
    John Robb was there every step of the way. In this, the definitive book on Britain’s biggest band, he peels back the layers of Manchester’s best-known musical export, revealing a tale of ambition, ego, talent and a whole lot of attitude. From the estates of South Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom, Live Forever is a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. But it is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped, and were shaped by, two cocksure upstarts from Burnage – from art to fashion, and from football to politics. 
    Playful, funny and irreverent, and drawing on dozens of interviews and first-hand stories, this book puts Oasis squarely in the pantheon of music royalty as the last great rock ’n’ roll stars. 
    John Robb's Live Forever is a Sunday Times bestselling book that takes readers on a journey through the history of Oasis. This biography, a top pick in non-fiction, explores the styles and influences that shaped the band, making it a must-read for fans of music history. 
    For fans of Simon Spence (All or Nothing), Legs Mcneil (I Slept With Joey Ramone), Steven Blush (Hard-Core), Lol Tolhurst (Cured), and Nige Tassell (Searching for Dexys Midnight Runners).

    The Big Book of Pyramids Worldwide

    This book is intended as a survey of pyramids and possible pyramids worldwide. There are more than 50 different pyramids and sites reviewed. 
     I’ve broken this information into three sections as follows: 
     Best Known Pyramids-Those which are famous throughout the world and almost everyone knows about. 
     Lesser Known Accepted Pyramids-These are real documented sites which experts agree are real pyramids but not that well known throughout the world. 
     Possible Pyramid Constructions-These are likely pyramid constructions but not accepted by mainstream archeologists. Some are even the products of wishful thinking. However, all of these candidate structures I could find are included. 
     Many of the pyramid descriptions are from publically available articles. Some of the descriptions are also from my analysis of the individual structures and constructions. 
     In the book’s summary, there are also some discussions of other issues like pyramid ages, alignments, and who built them.
