The Seventh Spark by J. B. Lion Pdf

In the darkness of the night, few things could be darker. Two beings are standing side by side, hooded and cloaked; watching the sky in the dark of night. Nothing to be seen around them except the grey sky hanging over them.The stars sparkled and delivered the minute illumination that was barely of use in the void that lay ahead. The grass was moist, and the trees stood tall and confident, while marking the passage for the duo, or maybe confusing them. The thick branches spread wildly affront with wet leaves hanging and slapping the figures as they pierced them to make way for their march. The wind was dry and chilly yet howled violently in the thick blanket of gloom that covered the duo. However, both men had dark souls resting within them, and that gloomy night was nothing short of a blessing, as they relished their walk in the night that would have certainly strike as harrowing to every sane mind. One began pacing, moving from one side to the other. "Can you stop?" the unmoving companion requested. "The meta-anthropoid is belated, his presence overdue," the other figure muttered. "What?""It is past the witching hour; I expected better from the inaugurator of this devious machination." "Your constant jittering won't make him come any faster, one eye," the other said in a menacing tone.

Sparked by Yashika Vahi Pdf

“I have these whispers in my ears. I see things, and my mind is so full of thoughts that it’s really tough to choose one. It’s just so crowded and… I don’t know how to un-crowd it. I don’t know how to focus. I don’t know what to do. I can’t think about only one thing, and it makes my head ache.” This is a simple story about, amongst other things, a bunch of suicidal teenagers convincing each other suicide isn’t an option. It’s hard to keep your shit together when the worst thing has happened. It’s hard to smile and pretend like everything’s okay but, well, we do it anyway, don’t we? But what happens when the burden gets heavier? What happens when that ray of light disappears? Being a teenager is a war. The question is—will we get out of it alive?

The Seven Rays - Keys to the Mysteries by Dr. Douglas M. Baker Pdf

The Seven Rays - Keys to the Mysteries: The Seven Rays form one of the keys to the mysteries to be employed in this, the Age of Aquarius, which is now upon us. This key is one of psychology; it takes into account not only the factors of genetics and personality, but also the factor of the Soul. Dr. Baker has drawn on the wisdom and expertise of H. P. Blavatsky and Alice Bailey to fashion this effective key to unlock the subjective qualities of the personality. The Seven Rays embrace the whole of our known universe; they are the builders of form. That form in humanity applies not only to your physical body structures, but also to your emotional and mental natures. The psychology of the Seven Rays is thus an ideal mechanism for esoteric students in counselling their subjects in what we now term the Ray Analysis.

Big Data Analytics with Spark by Mohammed Guller Pdf

Big Data Analytics with Spark is a step-by-step guide for learning Spark, which is an open-source fast and general-purpose cluster computing framework for large-scale data analysis. You will learn how to use Spark for different types of big data analytics projects, including batch, interactive, graph, and stream data analysis as well as machine learning. In addition, this book will help you become a much sought-after Spark expert. Spark is one of the hottest Big Data technologies. The amount of data generated today by devices, applications and users is exploding. Therefore, there is a critical need for tools that can analyze large-scale data and unlock value from it. Spark is a powerful technology that meets that need. You can, for example, use Spark to perform low latency computations through the use of efficient caching and iterative algorithms; leverage the features of its shell for easy and interactive Data analysis; employ its fast batch processing and low latency features to process your real time data streams and so on. As a result, adoption of Spark is rapidly growing and is replacing Hadoop MapReduce as the technology of choice for big data analytics. This book provides an introduction to Spark and related big-data technologies. It covers Spark core and its add-on libraries, including Spark SQL, Spark Streaming, GraphX, and MLlib. Big Data Analytics with Spark is therefore written for busy professionals who prefer learning a new technology from a consolidated source instead of spending countless hours on the Internet trying to pick bits and pieces from different sources. The book also provides a chapter on Scala, the hottest functional programming language, and the program that underlies Spark. You’ll learn the basics of functional programming in Scala, so that you can write Spark applications in it. What's more, Big Data Analytics with Spark provides an introduction to other big data technologies that are commonly used along with Spark, like Hive, Avro, Kafka and so on. So the book is self-sufficient; all the technologies that you need to know to use Spark are covered. The only thing that you are expected to know is programming in any language. There is a critical shortage of people with big data expertise, so companies are willing to pay top dollar for people with skills in areas like Spark and Scala. So reading this book and absorbing its principles will provide a boost—possibly a big boost—to your career.

War of the Spark: Forsaken (Magic: The Gathering) by Greg Weisman Pdf

Return to the multiverse of Magic: The Gathering as the hunt for Liliana Vess is on in the aftermath of the War of the Spark. The Planeswalkers have defeated Nicol Bolas and saved the Multiverse—though at grave cost. The living have been left to pick up the pieces and mourn the dead. But one loss is almost too great to bear: Gideon Jura, champion of justice and shield of the Gatewatch, is gone. As his former comrades Jace and Chandra struggle to rebuild from this tragedy, their future, like the future of the Gatewatch, remains uncertain. As the Gatewatch’s newest member, Kaya aims to help write that future. In joining, she pledged an oath to protect the living and the dead, but now that oath will be tested. The grieving guild masters of Ravnica have tasked her with a grave mission suited to her talents as a hunter and assassin—a mission she is ordered to keep secret from the Gatewatch. She must track down and exact retribution on the traitor Liliana Vess. But Liliana Vess has no interest in being found. Forsaken by her friends, she fled Ravnica after the defeat of Bolas. She was hostage to his wicked will, forced to assist in his terrible atrocities on pain of death—until Gideon, the last one who believed in her goodness, died in her place. Haunted by Gideon’s final gift, and hunted by former allies, Liliana now returns to a place she’d thought she’d never see again, the only place she has left: home.

The Seven Sources of Pleasure in Life by Luciano L'Abate Pdf

This book examines a seemingly simple and absolutely essential topic: learning how to enjoy every aspect of your life on a daily basis. All of us look for happiness, well-being, and positivity throughout our lives, but for most people these goals are abstract and the processes established to achieve them ambiguous. The Seven Sources of Pleasure in Life: Making Way for the Upside in the Midst of Modern Demands focuses attention upon the concrete, specific, and everyday sources of pleasure that are within the grasp of almost everyone. Prolific author Luciano L'Abate, PhD, ABEPP, examines at all kinds of pleasures, investigating where we find them, why they appeal to us, and what benefits they provide in terms of both mental and physical health. He explains how to increase our sensitivity to everyday opportunities for pleasure, and then gives tangible techniques to focus upon these moments in order to fully experience them. The author employs personal memories from his childhood in Italy, more recent stories from his travels abroad, and the findings of most recent scientific research on the benefits of pleasure-seeking to further illustrate his points.

Tam, sensible daughter of a well-respected doctor, had no idea before she arrived in Caithenor that she is a Seer, gifted with visions. When the two run into each other (quite literally) in the library, sparks fly and Corin impulsively asks Tam to dinner. But it’s not all happily ever after. Never mind that the prince isn’t allowed to marry a commoner: war is coming. Torn between his quest to free the dragons and his duty to his country, Tam and Corin must both figure out how to master their powers in order to save Caithen. With a little help from a village of secret wizards and rogue dragonrider, they just might pull it off.
