As a small boy, Charles Dickens worked in a dark, musty London warehouse, pasting labels onto pots of boot polish. He tried not to listen to his grumbling stomach or the rats squeaking on the stairs. His dream was to escape that misery one day and become a fine, educated gentleman. Through his gift for writing, that day did come for Dickens. But he never forgot what it was like to be poor. He wrote stories about London's lower classes—tales that made people laugh, cry, and work to improve their social conditions.

In the last 50 years, folklorists have amassed an extraordinary corpus of contemporary legends including "the Choking Doberman," "the Eaten Ticket," and "the Vanishing Hitchhiker." But what about the urban legends of the past? These legends and tales have rarely been collected, and when they occasionally appear, they do so as ancestors or precursors of the urban legends of today, rather than as stories in their own right. In The Nail in the Skull and Other Victorian Urban Legends, Simon Young fills this gap for British folklore (and for the wider English-speaking world) of the 1800s.

He expands on what it means to rely on the Father for strength, power, growth, and life. Composed in a style that breaks up into daily meditations, this wealth of information on how to live connected to God is an invaluable resource.

Sometimes, life can be cruel and unpredictable, snatching away all you hold dear in an instant. You can't undo what's been done, and now an incorruptible AI keeps thwarting your attempts to find the truth. Will you be able to persuade it? This is the opportunity given by an RPG game that works like an international arbitration court—an impartial and error-free machine.

Deliberate mischaracterization of political opponents and their policies has always been a part of politics; however, lying, dishonesty, and distortion of the facts remain morally wrong and have the potential to obstruct important political interests. For example, a false or misleading claim publicized about an election candidate may lead someone to lose an election that they might otherwise have won. So, does—and should—the law seek to provide protection from the risk of this happening?

Some of the most familiar words ever spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ are “Come to Me.” These words were spoken not just to individuals but cities, nations, and peoples wearied by an unrest of their own making in contrast to the Son of God at peace.
