This book answers the question as to the origin of Early Man. Was he created by God or did he evolve through a long evolutionary process? Who was the first Early Man to live on this Earth? What did he look like? Was he half ape and half man? Paleo archaeologists believe it is possible to trace Early Man back from about 2 to 3 million years ago to a more recent time when he could be truly called Early Man. Is it possible that Adam & Eve were the first man and woman that can truly be called Early Man? The science of archaeology and anthropology would have us believe that Early Man was a Stone Age person. He is often related to the Old Stone Age, the Middle Stone Age and the New Stone Age periods. He is often referred to as the Palaeolithic Man, the Mesolithic Man and the Neolithic Man. What were the great accomplishments of Early Man? Is it possible that the mysterious, megalithic and colossal stone and pyramidal structures that are present in various parts of the earth were constructed by Early Man? What type of stone tools did he manufacture? Who was Modern Man? When did he appear on this Earth? Is there a gap in time that separates Early Man from Modern Man? How is it possible to relate Early Man throughout Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, North and South America to Modern Day Man? This book reveals how it is possible to Bridge the Gap between Early Man and Modern Man. To find the answer you must read this book? Volume Two is a sequel to Volume One entitled, Bridging the Gap: The First 6 Days. Volume One bridges the gap between the origin and history of the Earth about 4.6 billion years ago to the time of Early Man. It also reveals the astounding relationship that exists between the record of geology and the Biblical record of the earth throughout this vast period of time. Both books are a must to read. The Author brings the History of Early Man and the Old Testament account into focus in a very logical way, so that we in the present feel a real connection to the past. This organized information is extremely helpful in adding to the wonder of the Creators Plan for Mankind. W. Gerry Loewen, BA (Econ), LLB Linking contemporary earth science knowledge with mans ancient beginnings is an engaging story. This book is for you if youve ever wondered how the Bible and science can be complementary. This book is for you if youve ever wondered about the origin of our earth, its hidden secrets and its early inhabitants. Cheryl Miller B.Ed.

Alastair Reynolds continues his Revelation Space series with this “first-rate work of science fiction, a thoroughly modern space opera full of dangers and marvels to match”(SF Site). The Inhibitors were designed to eliminate any life form reaching a certain level of intelligence—and they’ve targeted Humanity. War veteran Clavain and a ragtag group of refugees have fled into hiding. Their leadership is faltering, and their situation is growing more desperate. But their little colony has just received an unexpected visitor: an avenging angel with the power to lead mankind to safety—or draw down its darkest enemy. And as she leads them to an apparently insignificant moon light-years away, it begins to dawn on Clavain and his companions that to beat one enemy, it may be necessary to forge an alliance with something much worse...

To fly.\r A childhood fantasy fulfilled, a lifelong goal accomplished.\r Fresh from rotary-wing flight school, 22-year-old Lieutenant Mark Ashford arrives for his first duty assignment at Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania, wanting nothing more than to master the art of flight. But he learns quickly that he’s in the awkward position of overseeing pilots with vastly superior skills and experience. Mark is persistently thwarted by one of these men―Vietnam veteran Nick Trent―who displays no regard for authority or convention, or even for Mark’s own personal safety.\r Resolved to learn more about his belligerent subordinate, Mark uncovers a decades-old secret from the Vietnam War―a brutal helicopter assault on innocent villagers. At the same time, he is tasked with supporting the DEA with aerial reconnaissance in search of a hidden cache of marijuana. Mark befriends a 16-year-old boy conscripted by the growers into the illicit venture. As he struggles to prevent the boy from drifting deeper into the crevices of the drug world, Mark is torn by his conflicting allegiances and risks his dream of becoming a master pilot.\r THE GAP is a coming-of-age story that poses questions about the wisdom of the current drug war while employing themes from another lost war.

Traction. Startups Need It. Learn How To Get It. Vision, groundbreaking ideas, total commitment, and boundless enthusiasm characterize most startups, but they require capital to go from promising product to scalable business. More than 80 percent of all early-stage startups fail. Most of them can build a product, but the vast majority stumble when it comes time to take those products to market due to poor “market engineering” skills. Traversing the Traction Gap exposes the reasons behind that scary failure rate and provides a prescriptive how-to guide, focused specifically on market engineering techniques, so startups can succeed. The go-to-market hurdle is insurmountable to many startups. Just when they most need to establish a foothold in the market, they run short on time and money. This is the Traction Gap, that period of time introducing a new product into the marketplace and being able to scale it during a rapidly closing window of opportunity. Traversing the Traction Gap is a practical guidebook for navigating the tumultuous early life of a startup. Based on real-life examples, the advice from Cleveland and the members of the Wildcat Venture Partners team provides a roadmap and metrics for succeeding where others have failed.

How did the concept of the avant-garde come into existence? How did it impact on the performing arts? How did the avant-garde challenge the artistic establishment and avoid the pull of commercial theatre, gallery and concert-hall circuits? How did performance artists respond to new technological developments? Placing key figures and performances in their historical, social and aesthetic context, Günter Berghaus offers an accessible introduction to post-war avant-garde performance. Written in a clear, engaging style, and supported by text boxes and illustrations throughout, this volume explains the complex ideas behind avant-garde art and evocatively brings to life the work of some of its most influential performance artists. Covering hot topics such as multi-media and body art performances, this text is essential reading for students of theatre studies and performance.

Born in Winston-Salem, NC, my family moved back to the mountains when my Dad entered the navy in WWII. I grew up in the rural, mountainous area of Flower Gap and surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. I attended a one-room school for five years before moving to Lambsburg High School with grades 1-12. This school burned in 1959, and I went to Hillsville High School from which I graduated. I was the first in my family to attend college or get a Master's Degree. I became an elementary school principal at the age of twenty-four. I was married after graduating from college, and we had one child. I became principal of two schools at the age of twenty-six. After fifteen years as a principal and enduring an unsuccessful marriage, I changed professions and left my wife to explore other avenues and career paths. I remarried, bought a general store, and settled in a new career with my second wife. We sold the business after twenty-two years. I was elected to the school board in 2004, and we were partners in a tax preparation service; I began selling life insurance and Medicare Supplements in 2008. This book is a collection of stories to depict different times and situations I have encountered throughout my life as I grew up in Flower Gap, and how this impacted my life right up to this day. Growing up on a farm and apple orchard taught me responsibility, good work habits, and a closeness to God which served me well all the days of my life.
