John Hodiak is living in the original Peston house and fi nds evidence of Pitus Peston’s life among the hidden places of the old house. Legends of ghostly apparitions and hidden gold enter into the plot which is actually the convergence of two story lines; one of John Hodiak on Earth and of Pitus Peston who is across the galaxy helping the Omans save their race. Pitus has to return from Oman in order to reverse a fatal error of the Omans centuries before and prevent global disaster.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pitus Peston is really on the spot. Returning to Earth to save it from corstet, an alien life prolonging plant, he gets captured by the army and is in a military base in the Nevada desert being debriefed on all of his advanced technology. When they are done, what will they do with a 235 year old man who has knowledge of extraterrestrials? They seem to have only two cruel choices. Will they keep him a permanent resident in some “Area 51” type place, forever cut off from the world, or just make him part of the Nevada landscape? On the other side of the galaxy, Peston's alien friends, Calnoon and Kinar, two of three alien exiles whose ship Pitus discovered in the Arizona desert in 1811, and Orban, a renowned Oman official and scholar, wonder what is keeping Pitus from returning to them. Pitus is also in the sites of the third exile, Rohab, now a high ranking agent of the FBI, who has been trying to finish off Peston for nearly two centuries. If this weren't enough, there is also a ruthless crazy alien of the enemy planet Haldan, who wants nothing so fervently than to kill Peston, and is willing to travel across the galaxy to do it. This feeling is mutual of course, and is about to get intensified by the actions of this Haldi, and so starts the story of PITUS PESTON AND THE VENDETTA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kan-Oxx-Voo, an extinct advanced culture of a million years ago was irresistible to Pitus Peston. He had hopes of seeing just a fragment or two of it, though this would fail to completely satisfy someone like him, thats for sure. You know what they say about wishing for things; take care what you desire, you might just get it? In the fifth episode of the PEREGRINATIONS OF PITUS PESTON, Pitus searches for that ancient fragment, and, like a freshly awakened predator, it swallows him whole. The next big question is; How can he escape from it?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PITUS PESTON AND THE EYES OF HARNUK is the second episode in the PEREGRINATIONS OF PITUS PESTON. Imagine a young man who lived two hundred years ago, whose destiny seemed to be to work the small family farm along the upper Hudson but whose intellect soared far above his times and station. This young man dared to dream a blasphemous dream of travel to worlds and peoples among the stars. Now imagine that he discovered not only a means of fulfi lling his dream, but found himself in a quest to fi nd a source of knowledge rivaling that of the Almighty Himself. Pitus Peston who solved the riddle hidden in a wampum sash of the location of a derelict alien ship atop a butte in what is now Monument Valley, is journeying with his companion Calnoon Atoye Itah, a native of Oman, to this world on the opposite arm of the Milky Way. Atoye, eager to end his long exile and return home hopes to reward his friend Pitus with astounding scenes of his highly advanced civilization. When they reach their distant goal, they fi nd not the wonders of an advanced civilization but the ruins of war, but a new objective avails itself in the search for Loma's Cube, the seat of accumulated knowledge spanning the eons of the last era before the last Big Bang swallowed it up in the last Big Crunch. They are not alone in this quest. A rival from the planet Haldan, the other faction in what became known as The Thirty-Minutes War, seeks the cube for its secrets of propulsion and weaponry to make possible a new empire engulfi ng ultimately the whole galaxy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PITUS PESTON AND THE GODS OF OMAN is the fi rst book in the PEREGRINATIONS OF PITUS PESTON adventure series. PITUS PESTON AND THE GODS OF OMAN is about a dreamer of cosmic adventure who turned his dreams into reality. He was born into an unlikely time for space fl ight. When Thomas Jefferson was President the frontier was still east of Buffalo. The only way to reach this distant land was afoot or by horse. But there were other worlds whose time lines of development were not like our own. On some of these worlds the present state of Earth was in their dim past. About the time of the Mayfl ower, three travelers, exiles from the planet Oman, a world on the opposite spiral arm of Caleeron, their name for the Milky Way, crash land their craft atop a butte in what later became Monument Valley. They were unable to leave Earth and dispersed among humanity to live out their lives. The year is now 1805, and Pitus Peston, an eighteen year old farmer's son endowed with a linguistic genius, discovers an old wampum belt bearing a strange image. It stirs his soul and he believes that the image on the belt is otherworldly and he determines to uncover its secret. Through an accumulation of clues he works his way toward solving the secret of the gods of Oman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problems of the patellofemoral joint remain a challenge to the orthopaedic surgeon. In spite of many articles in scientific journals, an outstanding monograph, and several excellent textbook chapters, the patella is still an enigma in many respects. The etiology of patellar pain is controversial, and there is no completely satisfying explanation for its cause or its relationship to chondromalacia. Curiously, neither the widespread use of arthroscopy nor the advent of newer diagnostic tests such as CT scanning and magnetic resonance imaging have cast much light. Without a better understanding of why patellar disorders occur it is not surprising that there is no consensus on how to fix them. Arthros copy has contributed little except to the patient's psyche. The currently most popular surgical treatment for recurrent dislocation of the patella was first described 50 years ago. One concrete advance, albeit a small one, is a better understanding of the role of anatomical abnormalities and patellofemoral dysplasia in patellar instabilities. It gives me great pleasure that many of the contributors are, like Dr.

The days of heaven are holy days, From sin forever free Two little words are found in the Greek version here. They are translated "_ton kairon_" in the revised version, "Buying up for yourselves the opportunity." The two words _ton kairon_ mean, literally, the opportunity. They do not refer to time in general, but to a special point of time, a juncture, a crisis, a moment full of possibilities and quickly passing by, which we must seize and make the best of before it has passed away.

This book was released on 2017-08-21 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the result of a conference held in October 2015 in connection with the Frankfurt Book Fair discussing developments that are considered important in contemporary Indonesian cultural productions. The first part of the book reflects on the traumatic experiences of the Indonesian nation caused by a failed coup on October 1, 1965. In more general theoretical terms, this topic connects to the field of memory studies, which, in recent decades, has made an academic comeback. The focus of the chapters in this section is how certain, often distressing, events are represented in narratives in a variety of media that are periodically renewed, changed, rehearsed, repeated, and performed, in order to become or stay part of the collective memory of a certain group of people. The second part of the book explores how forces of globalisation have impacted upon the local and, linguistically surprisingly, rather homogeneous cultural productions of Indonesia. The main strands of inquiry in this second section are topics of global trends in religion, responses to urban development, the impact of popular literary developments, and how traditions are revisited in order to come to terms with international cultural developments.
