Torn 3 Surviving The Human Snake Pit

Torn 3: Surviving the Human Snake Pit is a continuation of the passion and pain that exists in the life of Melissa "MeMe" Thomas (Williams). Torn 2 ended with a nail-biter after Melissa received a message on her phone that will change everything, and in this book, you'll finally see what was actually on that text message that tests Melissa's faith in God all the more. Now that she's divorced and living the single life again, she finds nothing wrong with igniting old flames, but is there enough heat between her and an ex-lover to keep the flame burning, or will she get too close and end up getting burned? It's no secret that in times of trouble, we tend to run to the church for spiritual restoration. But is it enough to keep a troubled Melissa on the straight and narrow path, or will she meet someone whose troubled past sends them both to a point of no return? New to the Miami scene and fresh out of Louisiana, Bradford James arrives into town, but what is he running from? Torn 3: Surviving the Human Snake Pit is based on true events that will leave you speechless, in tears, and cheering for Melissa's survival from the human snakes that are lurking at every corner of her life. Will there be a rainbow at the end of this storm? Or better yet, who will be at the end of the storm? After reading this book, you will be so inspired that you'll begin to jump off the "cliffs" in your own life without worrying if the parachute opens or not.

Surgeon, explorer, and masterful storyteller, Kenneth Kamler takes us to the farthest reaches of the earth as well as into the uncharted territory within the human brain. Surviving the Extremes is a scientific nail-biter no reader will forget. Physiological constraints confine our bodies to less than one-fifth of the earth's surface. Beyond that fraction lie the extremes. What happens when we go to them? Dr. Kenneth Kamler has spent years observing exactly what happens. A vice president of the legendary Explorers Club, he has climbed, dived, sledded, floated, and trekked through some of the most treacherous and remote regions in the world. A consultant for NASA, Yale University, and the National Geographic Society, he has explored undersea caves, crossed the frozen Antarctic wastelands, and stitched a boy's hand back together while kneeling in knee-deep Amazonian mud. He was the only doctor on Everest during the tragic expedition documented in Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air and helped treat its survivors. Kamler has devoted his life to investigating how our bodies respond to "environmental insults"-a nice way of saying the things that can kill us-and watched while some succumbed to them and others, sometimes miraculously, overcome them. Words like "extreme" and "survival" have lost some of their value from overuse and media hype. By showing us what happens when life itself is at stake, and the body's capacities put to their greatest test, this book reminds us what they truly mean. Divided into six sections-jungle, open sea, desert, underwater, high altitude, and outer space-Surviving the Extremes uses first-hand testimony and documented accounts to illustrate what happens in environments where our instinctive survival strategies must become fully engaged. These stories reveal how infinitely complex are the workings of the human body-and also how heartbreakingly fragile. At the heart of this book is a quest for the source of our will to survive and the haunting question of why some can, and others cannot, summon its awesome and nearly mystical power at their moment of greatest need.

Ambition will fuel him. Competition will drive him. But power has its price. It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favor or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute . . . and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.

Aerospace physiology (sometimes called flight or aviation physiology, human factors, or aeromedical factors) is the scientific discipline studying the effects of flight conditions on human physiological and cognitive systems, teaching aviators to work and function at peak efficiency in the abnormal environment of flight. This information is introduced to pilots throughout their initial training including hypoxia, spatial disorientation, visual illusions, fatigue, trapped gases, and many others. The problem is all of these issues still create problems, as well as fatalities, for pilots on a regular basis even today. Why? Pilots may know about the information, but fail to completely understand it. This book will transform a pilot’s potential misinterpretation of this subject matter into definitive action on the flight deck. The newest, most authoritative, and comprehensive resource on this critical subject is "Aerospace Physiology: Aeromedical and Human Performance Factors for Pilots," a pilot’s number one source for enhancing safety-of-flight for all pilot experience levels. As well as providing practical and realistic human performance information for private and professional pilots, this book has been specifically written for use in academic settings unlike other books on this subject matter. This book is currently the preferred text on flight physiology for the world-renowned University of North Dakota’s John D. Odegard School of Aerospace Sciences. The book contains 22 chapters, discussing each topic thoroughly using the primacy of learning format and in an understandable manner, complete with chapter core competency questions. Each topic is covered in detail with environmental causes, potential physiological & cognitive responses, followed by effective and proven anticipation & mitigation strategies. The book uses the most current research and experience-based information combined with current incidents and accidents illustrating how these issues present themselves in real flight environments as well as how those accidents may have been prevented. The information in this book is based on Mr. Martin’s 30 years of military and civilian aviation experience, and is modeled after the US Air Force’s Physiological Training Program for pilots and the comprehensive European Union Aviation Safety Agency’s (EASA) flight physiology human performance standards. Using Aerospace Physiology as your resource for aerospace physiology information will elevate the standard of training to its highest levels regarding this crucial knowledge.

Men, women, and equality:Where is the Bible pointing us?Join the journey through the pages of Scripture and across history to see the trajectory of the Spirit. Can it be that he is taking the church back to personal wholeness and relational harmony that have eluded men and women since the Fall in the garden?Based on a high view of Scripture, this fresh look at the biblical landscape• corrects misunderstandings of biblical statements on gender.• demonstrates that some texts applied only to the unique historical situations they addressed.• discerns the overall direction that the Holy Spirit is taking, calling the church to embrace a vision of gender equality, freedom, and mutuality.Written in an accessible style, The Journey Back to Eden offers hope and encouragement to men and women who are perplexed by gender stereotypes. The book includes questions for individual reflection or group discussion.
