It’s heresy for scientists to believe in sorcerers, dragons, magic elixirs and legends. Yet, twenty years of secret studies in to the ancient and forbidden sorcery has revealed an unbelievable science existed in that mythical time. A science that unlocks the remaining mysteries of life. A science that scared the church so much that inquisitors were ordered to kill thousands to suppress the ancient wisdom. This book reveals the science of the golden elixir which is a mysterious energy that flows through the body, the mind, the earth, and the heavens. The elixir connects each of us to the universe, it is Ponce de Leon’s fountain of youth, and it is the secret to eternal life. The elixir is our psychic communications link to every other person on earth. It is our phone line to God’s thoughts. It is the stuff of ghosts, ESP, and auras. The energy known as the golden elixir is the spirit that survives the body’s death. This old and forgotten science is revealed within these pages.

Estimating software development often produces more angst than value, but it doesn't have to. Identify the needs behind estimate requests and determine how to meet those needs simply and easily. Choose estimation techniques based on current needs and available information, gaining benefit while reducing cost and effort. Detect bad assumptions that might sink your project if you don't adjust your plans. Discover what to do when an estimate is wrong, how to recover, and how to use that knowledge for future planning. Learn to communicate about estimates in a healthy and productive way, maximizing advantage to the organization and minimizing damage to the people. In a world where most developers hate estimation and most managers fear disappointment with the results, there is hope for both. It requires giving up some widely held misconceptions. Let go of the notion that "an estimate is an estimate" and estimate for the particular need you, and your organization, have. Realize that estimates have a limited shelf-life, and reestimate frequently if it's important. When reality differs from your estimate, don't lament; mine that disappointment for the gold that can be the longer-term jackpot. Estimate in comparison to past experience, by modeling the work mathematically, or a hybrid of both. Learn strategies for effective decomposition of work and aspects of the work that likely affect your estimates. Hedge your bets by comparing the results of different approaches. Find out what to do when an estimate proves wrong. And they will. They're estimates, after all. You'll discover that you can use estimates to warn you of danger so you can take appropriate action in time. Learn some crucial techniques to understand and communicate with those who need to understand. Address both the technical and sociological aspects of estimation, and you'll help your organization achieve its desired goals with less drama and more benefit. What You Need: No software needed, just your past experience and concern for the outcomes.

Seagrave presents the story of this heritage, focusing on the people who have made the county a comfortable place to raise a family--the strength and creativity of those who have lived on the farms and in the villages. Discover the whole span of Dinwiddie County's past, from simple beginnings and early development, through the Civil War, Reconstruction and growth and on to world wars, modern times and a glimpse of the present.
