Everest 1922. Los pioneros
Un relato dramático y cautivador del primer intento de ascensión del Everest, cuya publicación coincide con el centenario de aquella épica expedición de 1922. Aunque sigue siendo, sin lugar a dudas, la montaña más famosa del mundo, a lo largo de los últimos años la reputación del Everest ha cambiado de forma radical. Actualmente, la masificación de su ascensión, con largas colas de escaladores en la Pared del Lhotse, las escabrosas historias de cadáveres congelados o los montones de basura que se acumulan a gran altitud en la montaña, no hablan a su favor. Pero las cosas no han sido siempre así. Hubo un tiempo en que el Everest era un lugar remoto, inaccesible y misterioso, que sólo los hombres más audaces y heroicos se atrevieron a pisar. La primera tentativa de escalada del Everest, protagonizada en 1922 por George Leigh Mallory y un equipo expedicionario inglés, constituye una historia extraordinaria, rebosante de controversias, drama e incidentes, a cargo de un plantel de personaje

Llewellyn Publications,U.S. The Divine Practice of Angel Numbers: Raise Your Vibration with the Archangels
Raise Your Vibration with the Archangels. A new energy that the angels call ascension energy is sweeping the planet. The Divine Practice of Angel Numbers shows how angels use special numbers to connect with you and teach specific ascension energy lessons. You will read in-depth descriptions of thirteen archangels, such as Metatron, Uriel, and Ariel and thirteen numbers, each of which indicates a special lesson that the angels are lovingly sending to you. With special numbers like 000, 555, 1010, and 1111, the angels are trying to help us move into a state of awakening. They want us to step into out divine selves and start living from a new, expanded perspective. Their lessons are focused on important spiritual and emotional milestones like letting go, becoming more comfortable with change, connecting with twin-flame energy, moving beyond the ego, and many more. For each number, you will receive a short affirmation-style message from the angel, a deeper message, a description of the angel, a visualization or meditation, an angel connection prayer and automatic writing prompt, and an exercise for putting the number's energy into the suggested crystal. The ascension lessons in this book will be just what you need to hear. The ascension lessons are meant to increase your joy, happiness, health, and well-being. With the help of this book, you can learn to gently open the door and start receiving more guidance and support from the angels, without having to make a deep commitment to any one angel in particular. Author Leeza Robertson provides advice for easy ways to work with this book and start receiving the loving energy and blessings of the angels each and every day.

La montaña desnuda
La ascensión al Nanga Parbat en 1970 marcó el inicio de la carrera himalayística de Reinhold Messner. Pero fue a la vez una expedición controvertida, rodeada de un halo de misterio: el hermano menor de Reinhold, Günther, muere en la "Montaña del Destino Alemán". Reinhold sobrevive, aunque sufre graves congelaciones tras haber realizado la primera ascensión por la vertiente de Rupal ?con sus de 4.500 metros de altura conocida como el mayor precipicio de la Tierra? y la primera travesía del codiciado ochomil de sur a noroeste. Posteriormente Kart Herrligkoffer, el jefe de la expedición, descalificará duramente la actuación de Reinhold, culpándole de la muerte de su hermano y restando mérito a su indudable proeza. En -La montaña desnuda- Messner desvela por primera vez los acontecimientos de aquellos días que dieron un vuelco a su vida. Estamos ante un relato dolorosamente valiente y personal de la muerte y la supervivencia, en el cual la inmediatez del momento resurgida de los diarios y

Pen & Sword Books Ltd RAF Tanker Navigator
This book gives a rare insight into the life inside the tanker squadrons of the Royal Air Force, viewed through the eyes of Tony Golds, one of the RAF tanker fleets longest serving Navigator/Plotters. During his service career which spanned four decades, he flew in dozens of aeroplanes, for literally thousands of hours and covered something in excess of two million miles. Initially the prime role of the first tankers (Valiants) was to service the legendary English Electric Lightning interceptor fighters patrolling the North Sea. During his career, Tony served in every continent of the world, including a healthy series of tours at Ascension just after the Falklands War. He was in one of the tanker crews chosen to assist in devising the procedures needed to get both the Vulcans in the Black Buck operation down to the Falklands, and subsequently the Hercules C130 freighters to form the Ascension / Falklands air bridge, so vital for the support of the Falkland Islands, once the shooting war was over.

Editorial Tirant Lo Blanch El derecho a la intimidad
El derecho a la intimidad es uno de los derechos más vulnerables y esa vulnerabilidad se ha visto incrementada debido al uso de las nuevas tecnologías, las cuales no solo multiplican los riesgos, sino que amplían y multiplican sus efectos. A su vez, las garantías del derecho se ven afectadas por una insuficiente regulación normativa, lo que propicia que sean los jueces los llamados a interpretar una legislación pensada para los medios de comunicación social clásicos o para comunicaciones mediante instrumentos tradicionales. A ello hay que añadir que en determinados supuestos la intimidad se verá afectada por actuaciones de los propios poderes públicos. Este casi inagotable asunto, objeto de este libro, fue abordado en las IX Jornadas internacionales de Derecho Constitucional (España-Italia-Brasil) bajo tres rúbricas: "Derecho a la intimidad versus poder público", "El derecho a la intimidad y el derecho a la información" y "El derecho a la intimidad y las nuevas tecnologías".

Ediciones Desnivel, S. L Del Tirol al Nanga Parbat
-Del Tirol al Nanga Parbat- es un libro autobiográfico único que Desnivel reedita conmemorando el 60 aniversario de su muerte, acontecida durante su intento al Chogolisa en 1957, y pocas semanas después de haber conseguido, junto a Kurt Diemberger, la primera ascensión al Broad Peak. Hermann Buhl, iconoclasta y provocador, alpinista de prodigioso talento, es considerado hoy como el precursor más destacado del himalayísmo moderno. Su ascensión en solitario al Nanga Parbat (8.125 m) en 1953, tan sólo unos días después de que la cordada Hillary-Tenzing coronara la cima del Everest, confirma a un escalador fuera de serie. Esta montaña devoradora de hombres, que se ha cebado en la flor y nata de los alpinistas europeos desde Mummery hasta Welzenbach, sucumbió ante la determinación de Buhl que coronó su cima por primera vez en la historia. El tirolés conquista la cima tras una escalada nocturna en solitario y durante el descenso realiza un vivac a ocho mil metros, sin tienda ni saco de dormi

Bradt Travel Guides St Helena
This fully revised fourth edition of Bradt's St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha remains the only guide to these three British Overseas Territories, tiny volcanic islands that are virtual specks in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and which thanks to the opening of a new airport in 2017 are more accessible than ever before. Rugged, volcanic and very remote, as Napoleon's place of exile following the Battle of Waterloo, St Helena has gained a notoriety that assures its place in the travel lexicon. This fully revised edition includes all the most recent information, from the latest details of how to get there to expanded practical information on the airport, more detail on several of the Post Box walks and the mountain bike trail, and more in-depth information about what to do and where to go in Ascension. Also covered are details of the 2021 Napoleon Bicentenary, plus dedicated sections on what to do in the islands' two gateway cities: 48 hours in Johannesburg and 48 hours in Cape Town. Wildlife enthusiasts, nature lovers, hikers, and travellers interested in history and heritage are all catered for. The endemic flora and fauna is one of the islands' chief attractions, with 1,000 species of birds observed on St Helena alone. Also covered are the inspiring Millennium Forest project, where visitors give something back by planting an endemic tree, and sea safaris for spotting the area's abundant marine life, including whale sharks, dolphins and humpback whales, as well as fish and seabirds. Boat trips, which can include snorkelling and diving, are increasingly popular. How to visit Jonathan the Tortoise is included, too: hatched circa 1832, he is the oldest living land animal on the planet. Despite increased accessibility, these three islands are likely to preserve their reputation amongst the most unspoiled destinations in the world. With Bradt's St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, be one of the intrepid few to visit.

University of Illinois Press Bach Perspectives, Volume 8: J.S. Bach and the Oratorio Tradition
As the official publication of the American Bach Society, Bach Perspectives has pioneered new areas of research in the life, times, and music of Bach since its first appearance in 1995. Volume 8 of Bach Perspectives emphasizes the place of Bach's oratorios in their repertorial context. These essays consider Bach's oratorios from a variety of perspectives: in relation to models, antecedents, and contemporary trends; from the point of view of musical and textual types; and from analytical vantage points including links with instrumental music and theology. Christoph Wolff suggests the possibility that Bach's three festive works for Christmas, Easter, and Ascension Day form a coherent group linked by liturgy, chronology, and genre. Daniel R. Melamed considers the many ways in which Bach's passion music was influenced by the famous poetic passion of Barthold Heinrich Brockes. Markus Rathey examines the construction and role of oratorio movements that combine chorales and poetic texts (chorale tropes). Kerala Snyder shows the connections between Bach's Christmas Oratorio and one of its models, Buxtehude's Abendmusiken spread over many evenings. Laurence Dreyfus argues that Bach thought instrumentally in the composition of his passions at the expense of certain aspects of the text. And Eric Chafe demonstrates the contemporary theological background of Bach's Ascension Oratorio and its musical realization

Oxford University Press Inc The Homeric Centos: Homer and the Bible Interwoven
The Homeric Centos, a poem that is Homeric in style and biblical in theme, is a dramatic illustration of the creative cultural and religious dialogue between Classical Antiquity and Christianity taking place in the Roman Empire during the fifth century CE. The text is attributed to Eudocia, empress and poet, who died in exile in the Holy Land ca. 460. With lines drawn verbatim from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, the poem begins with the Creation and Fall and ends with Jesus' Resurrection and Ascension. In this blend of Homeric style and Christian themes, there are also echoes of Classical and classicising literature, stretching from Homer and drama to imperial literature. Equally prominent are echoes of earlier Christian canonical and apocryphal works, verse models, and theological works. In The Homeric Centos: Homer and the Bible Interwoven, Anna Lefteratou analyzes the double inspiration of the poem by both classical and Christian traditions. This book explores the works relationship with the cultural milieu of the fifth century CE and offers in-depth analysis of the scenes of Creation and Fall, and Jesus' Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension. This book exposes the work's debt to centuries of Homeric reception and interpretation as well as Christian literature and exegesis, and places it at the crossroads of Christian and pagan literary traditions.

And, even if Bahzell is the War God’s champion, because the wind riders are the elite of the elite among the Sothoii, Bahzell’s ascension is as likely to stir resentment as respect. What’s more, Baron Tellian’s daughter, the heir to the realm, seems to be thinking that he is the only man — or hradani — for her.

Independent Institute,U.S. Crisis and Leviathan: Critical Episodes in the Growth of American Government
Discussing how government has continually grown in size and scope during the past century, this account demonstrates that the main reason lies in government’s responses to national “crises” (real or imagined), including economic upheavals and, especially, war. The result, this book argues, is the ever-increasing government power, which endures long after each crisis has passed, impinging on both civil and economic liberties and fostering extensive corporate welfare. Offering ideological explanations for the ascension of the role of government out of a capitalist, free-market economy, it will appeal to those with interests in political economy, American history, and libertarian politics.

The only one who can save Sera now is the one she spent her life planning to kill. The truth about Sera’s plan is out, shattering the fragile trust forged between her and Nyktos. Surrounded by those distrustful of her, all Sera has is her duty. She will do anything to end Kolis, the false King of Gods, and his tyrannical rule of Iliseeum, thus stopping the threat he poses to the mortal realm. Nyktos has a plan, though, and as they work together, the last thing they need is the undeniable, scorching passion that continues to ignite between them. Sera cannot afford to fall for the tortured Primal, not when a life no longer bound to a destiny she never wanted is more attainable than ever. But memories of their shared pleasure and unrivaled desire are a siren’s call impossible to resist. And as Sera begins to realize that she wants to be more than a Consort in name only, the danger surrounding them intensifies. The attacks on the Shadowlands are increasing, and when Kolis summons them to Court, a whole new risk becomes apparent. The Primal power of Life is growing inside her, pushing her closer to the end of her Culling. And without Nyktos’s love—an emotion he’s incapable of feeling—she won’t survive her Ascension. That is if she even makes it to her Ascension and Kolis doesn’t get to her first. Because time is running out. For both her and the realms.

The History Press Ltd MV Norland, Secret Weapon of the Falklands War: From North Sea Ferry to Task Force Assault Ship
In 1982, North Sea ferry MV Norland transported passengers and vehicles between Hull and Rotterdam. Requisitioned as a troop ship to take the 2nd Battalion, Parachute Regiment to the Falklands, the ‘volunteer’ merchant navy crew were told they would only go as far as the Ascension Island and that they should think of it as an extended North Sea booze-cruise run. However, without notice Norland’s role was changed and it became the first vessel to enter San Carlos Water, ending up a sitting duck in ‘Bomb Alley’ air raids while disembarking troops and carrying out resupply runs.Narrowly escaping sinking, the ship was used as a shelter for survivors and for collecting the Gurkhas from the QE2 in South Georgia, ready for disembarking in San Carlos Bay, before repatriating Argentine POWs. Long after the surrender, MV Norland provided a ferry service between the Falklands and Ascension Island. While many in the war served an average of 100 days, for the crew of the Norland it was ten months; indeed, they were considered the first in and the last out. This is a gripping account of non-combatant volunteers railroaded into serving in a war they hadn’t signed up for.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Luke as Narrative Theologian: Texts and Topics
This collection of essays by Joel B. Green draws together studies on Luke's theology over a thirty-year period - from the early days when many scholars questioned whether one might refer to Luke as a "theologian," to contemporary studies pursuing a variety of approaches to discerning Luke's message. These essays contribute to our understanding of the theological and narrative unity of Luke-Acts by pursuing a variety of topics (e.g., salvation, wealth and poverty, baptism, resurrection, and conversion) and more focused examinations of selected Lukan texts, such as the birth narrative, Jesus's crucifixion, Jesus's ascension, the Pentecost episode, and the stories of Cornelius and Lydia.

Vintage Publishing Children of England: The Heirs of King Henry VIII 1547-1558
When Henry VIII died in 1547, he left three highly intelligent children to succeed him in turn, to be followed, if their lines failed, by the descendants of his sister, Mary Tudor.Picking up from the point that The Six Wives of Henry VIII left off, Children of England covers the period up to Elizabeth's ascension to the throne in 1558. Making use of a huge variety of contemporary sources, Alison Weir brings to life one of the most extraordinary periods of English history, when each of Henry's heirs was potentially the tool of powerful political or religious figures, and when the realm was seething with intrigue and turbulent change.'Recounted with her usual lively thoroughness by Alison Weir, my favourite Tudor historian' Philippa Gregory
