Here's an irresistible invitation to discover a treasure trove of exceptional words you can use to add sophistication to your vocabulary and charm to your repartee. Consider that without realizing it you may have engaged in acokoinonia (sex without passion or desire), been bored to tears by the company of a philodox (someone in love with his or her opinions), or suffered from recurrent matutolypea (getting up on the wrong side of the bed). Presented with panache by the language connoisseur whom William Safire calls "ek-STROR-di-ner-ee," There's a Word for It will add a dash of wit to your daily life -- lest anyone mistake you for a sumph (stupid oaf) or fritlag (a good-for-nothing).

PRODIGAL PARISH: Revised Edition by Leo F. White Pdf

Father Paul Wesley’s journey through life had proven to be a turbulent one. It began with his ignoble conception and continued through a tempestuous childhood and early days as an adult, as he rebelled in a truculent manner; seeking to overcome the stigma his mother’s unsavory lifestyle and the emotional misery it brought with it. Then, after causing the death of his best friend, Paul Wesley had an epiphany. His eyes were opened, and his life changed. Now, as a Catholic priest, he felt free of the emotional duress that threatened his existence. He was ready to atone for the raucous deportment of his youth through the ministry of the Church and leave his less than desirable past where it belonged ⸺in the past! But, unbeknownst to him, there were challenges still to be met. Amends that needed to be made. Decisions to be rendered that would define him as not only a priest but as a man. The archdiocese was in the process of downsizing. There were a glut of churches and some had to go. The architect of this downsizing scheme was the cardinal’s personal secretary, Father John Moore. He had a greedy plan in progress to fatten his family coffers. But his plan hit a snag when his next prized takeover was the Church of St. Theresa, a church that had been under the spiritual guidance of Father Ronald Coniglio; the cardinal’s seminarian roommate and close friend who has fallen on harsh times emotionally and physically. It is onto this scene that Father Paul Wesley is asked to be the answer to the cardinal’s guilt-ridden conscience for his negligence regarding the downward plight of an old friend. In the meantime, the cardinal’s secretary has a totally different objective for Father Wesley. He is to be the designated sheep in wolf’s clothing and oversee the demise of the poverty-ridden parish. What neither of the prelates in the archdiocesan hierarchy counted on was Father Wesley being his own man. He makes the decision to return to the church of his youth but not as the cardinal’s answer to ease his guilty conscience or Father Moore’s executioner of a ruthless plan to lull the parishioners of St. Theresa’s into a false sense of security. It is Father Wesley’s intention to, somehow, save the place. Once back in the old neighborhood he is forced to tackle the parishioners problems of infidelity, an unwanted pregnancy, intimidation, pedophilia, bigotry, poverty, marital discord and an attempted rape that will force him to revisit a past he wants to forget. His mettle will be tested, and his resolve challenged. Will he meet the daunting task he forced on himself? That question will be determined by the reader as materialistic matter crumbles but spirituality reigns on.

Word and Object, new edition by Willard Van Orman Quine Pdf

A new edition of Quine's most important work. Willard Van Orman Quine begins this influential work by declaring, "Language is a social art. In acquiring it we have to depend entirely on intersubjectively available cues as to what to say and when." As Patricia Smith Churchland notes in her foreword to this new edition, with Word and Object Quine challenged the tradition of conceptual analysis as a way of advancing knowledge. The book signaled twentieth-century philosophy's turn away from metaphysics and what Churchland calls the "phony precision" of conceptual analysis. In the course of his discussion of meaning and the linguistic mechanisms of objective reference, Quine considers the indeterminacy of translation, brings to light the anomalies and conflicts implicit in our language's referential apparatus, clarifies semantic problems connected with the imputation of existence, and marshals reasons for admitting or repudiating each of various categories of supposed objects. In addition to Churchland's foreword, this edition offers a new preface by Quine's student and colleague Dagfinn Follesdal that describes the never-realized plans for a second edition of Word and Object, in which Quine would offer a more unified treatment of the public nature of meaning, modalities, and propositional attitudes.

The Power of GodaEUR(tm)s Word by Bryan Hines Pdf

They call me Featherchicken. That's what all my friends call me. This letter is about my Father. God chose me from the beginning of time (Psalm 139:13-17). My Dad (Abba) says amazing things in the Bible that are just too hard to fathom (believe) but are true. When I started to read Psalm 91, I said, "These are all the promises and blessings in God's Word." I do believe Moses wrote it for the children of Israel on their hiking trip. All the stories in this letter are a part of me and are true--from Lucas Paul Randal Hines to the storm on Lake Michigan to the gift of believing and to another level of humility. My Father is more than a friend. He walks with me and holds my hand. Wherever I go, He is there. David wrote Psalm 139. You need to read it in the Amplified Bible. I have learned to believe and hold on to my faith in the Lord Jesus. Smith Wigglesworth said, "Only believe," and that is what I do. And I have the confidence and the assurance through God's Word. For God does not lie. That is the truth. The Father's work is established in heaven and on earth. What He said, He meant; and He meant what He said. The power of His words can name all the stars in heaven, give birth to the earth, and give life to all His children through His son, Jesus. Salvation is only in Jesus. Ask Christ into your life, and you have started the greatest treasure hunt in your life. When I was twenty-five, I found the greatest treasure in the front yard of my house in Irving, Texas. That was back in 1975, and it was the greatest treasure I have ever found because the treasure keeps growing every day. I read the Father's Word, and it keeps the temple clean. I am the temple keeper. Discover who you are, what you have, and what you can do through the Father's work. Read His love letter to the world.
