The Gate - 13 Tales of Isolation and Despair

El Libro de la Gloria de los Reyes, el texto sagrado de los coptos, anuncia que llegará un día en que el Profeta revelará al mundo el contenido del Arca de la Alianza. Pero ese momento también es temido por quienes, con tal revelación, quedarán privados de su poder terrenal y espiritual. Mary Campion es una joven abogada norteamericana, pasional e idealista, que trabaja para una ONG especializada en adopciones internacionales. En la ciudad de Aksun se tropieza con el ejecutivo británico Jack Miles, quien intenta aclarar el destino de ciertos fondos enviados a Etiopía por la multinacional para la que trabaja. De repente se ven envueltos en una intriga que hunde sus raíces en las grutas de la comunidad esenia de Qumrán, en los documentos secretos de los caballeros templarios y en los oscuros pasillos del Vaticano. Pronto descubrirán que quienes se sienten amenazados por el Arca de la Alianza son demasiado poderosos, y las vidas de ambos demasiado insignificantes.

GIS and Environmental Modeling: Progress and Research Issues Michael F. Goodchild, Louis T. Steyaert, Bradley O. Parks, Carol Johnston, David Maidment, Michael Crane, and Sandi Glendinning, Editors With growing pressure on natural resources and landscapes there is an increasing need to predict the consequences of any changes to the environment. Modelling plays an important role in this by helping our understanding of the environment and by forecasting likely impacts. In recent years moves have been made to link models to Geographical Information Systems to provide a means of analysing changes over an area as well as over time. GIS and Environmental Modeling explores the progress made to date in integrating these two software systems. Approaches to the subject are made from theoretical, technical as well as data stand points. The existing capabilities of current systems are described along with important issues of data availability, accuracy and error. Various case studies illustrate this and highlight the common concepts and issues that exist between researchers in different environmental fields. The future needs and prospects for integrating GIS and environmental models are also explored with developments in both data handling and modelling discussed. The book brings together the knowledge and experience of over 100 researchers from academic, commercial and government backgrounds who work in a wide range of disciplines. The themes followed in the text provide a fund of knowledge and guidance for those involved in environmental modelling and GIS. The book is easily accessible for readers with a basic GIS knowledge and the ideas and results of the research are clearly illustrated with both colour and black and white graphics.

LESSONS IV

Learn how to grow transformation in your city. More than half the people on the planet live in cities. It's not just our future that's urban--our present is. What does the Bible say about cities? How should the church go about reaching those billions of city-dwellers? Where do our cities fit into the Kingdom of God? The church needs a comprehensive, gospel-centered response to these questions as we seek to obey God's call to "seek the welfare of the city" (Jer. 29:7). In Sowing Seeds of Change, Michael Crane weaves together theology and praxis, creating a framework for understanding your city, a means of crafting a vision of what it could be, and a way forward towards transforming it. Sowing Seeds of Change proposes an approach to the city that is both holistic and Christ-centered, offering churches a balanced, compassionate, well-researched model for ministry in diverse urban contexts. Whether you're a pastor, missionary, seminarian, or urban church member, you'll be challenged, edified, and equipped by Sowing Seeds of Change.
