Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'LaFond offers an investigation of the true story of Jesus Christ in this spiritual memoir. The author explains in this personal account how ancient sources, such as those of historian Flavius Josephus, shaped his views, . and he gives readers who are interested in questions of Christian theology plenty to consider.' Kirkus Reviews '.thought-provoking memoir that intertwines personal spiritual experiences with historical analysis to explore the true story of Jesus Christ. Overall, the book provides an enlightening journey into the intersections of history, theology, and personal spirituality.' IndieReader Verdict 'LaFond threads together theology, psychology, skepticism, and spirituality. He attempts to uncover not just the historical Jesus, but a deeper, internal experience of 'Christ' as universal awareness. This is no ordinary religious memoir; it is part philosophical musing, part confessional, and part critique of organized religion.' Literary Titan Reviews. '.the language is easy to understand and follows a scientific way of thinking, helping to counteract the book's casual organization. The fact that each chapter is written like an independent essay on a particular topic also leads to continual refreshed interest. The Conspiracy of the Christ is a bold and illuminating theological memoir about faith, culture, and biblical scholarship, all considered against the backdrop of personal experiences.' Foreword Clarion Reviews My desire to gain attention for Jesus Christ Divided inspired me to write a memoir of my process in producing that book, but once I began writing the book quickly expanded to something that I had not anticipated. The Conspiracy of the Christ developed as my life story with the focus on my spiritual journey, ultimately merging with my scholarly journey, and reporting the history of earliest Christianity. The book only works because it is literal and logical as I am. I give a descriptive overview of all the useful texts and a bibliography of books that are helpful to the reader in further researching for themselves. I always want the reader to know how and where I came by the ideas that I discuss. That's just good science. My approach is anthropological, and I focus on facts that most people overlook as inconsequential. However, in understanding the human story of how Jesus Christ became God, those details are crucial. Those details resolve the many contradictions that keep the Gospel a myth- a myth that I distill as history. However, the hook that pivots the whole thesis is that spirituality is a real thing, a human thing, and that was the basis of the teachings of Jesus Christ. The journey was surprising and rewarding. You will know why Christianity became successful, beating out all other great philosophies. You will know the secret meaning of the teachings of Jesus Christ. This miraculous book will boost your own spiritual journey.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Manual for training new Emergency 911 Operators in the Emergency Call Center from 2007. The Emergency 911 Operators would triage calls and transfer to agency call-takers in an efficient manner. Because most 911 calls arrive in bunches, and not randomly, duplicating calls overwhelm most 911 systems. The structure of the Tucson 911 model effectively prevented the duplicate calls from blocking other calls and losing information about emergency situations, providing greater safety for the public and the first-responders. The 'triage PSAP' is the only call center structure that can effectively handle the spikes of 9-1-1 calls that quickly overwhelm other call center configurations. It is rare because it is non-intuitive, requiring a transfer on every call. However, the advantages of answering calls on average in less than three seconds, with the ability to screen duplicates and non-emergent calls makes this system superior in providing 9-1-1 service. The need to transfer impacts service almost not at all in comparison to the long waits of other systems. More information is obtained and more lives are saved. Do we want a system that is more intuitive, or one that actually saves lives When I worked for Tucson 9-1-1, we had an average answer time of 2.6 seconds. This is how we did it. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - '.the work reads like an unfiltered report. the 'moral energy' that fueled him is believable; he only wanted the best for the Tucson center, . An eye-opening, true-life account of the inner workings of an understaffed critical public resource.' Kirkus Reviews 'Tucson 9-1-1: Do The Right Thing! is a deeply personal, sometimes fiery, and always passionate insider account of the rise and fall of Tucson's emergency communications center. What struck me most about LaFond's writing is the raw, unfiltered honesty. He writes like a man who has nothing left to lose, and that lends a gravity to every page. It's a whistleblower's war story written with both heart and bite. Tucson 9-1-1: Do The Right Thing! is a stirring read.' Literary Titans Reviews When I was an Emergency 9-1-1 Operator, I would infrequently answer calls from very young toddlers, three or even a bit younger. Usually, they would be playing on the phone, but we were trained to be sure that there was no emergency. Sometimes, they did have an emergency. On one occasion, I asked the child to let me talk to their mother, and the child said happily that their mother was there. I asked again if I could talk to her, but the child said she was asleep. Turned out that the mother was unconscious on the bathroom floor. Answering the phone promptly is the most important thing that we did, and now the Tucson Public Safety Communications Department cannot do it. Answering the calls gave me a human perspective on what we did. I was excited and proud, and I wanted to understand it. However, other people did not have that perspective. Observers did not think we did much at all. They did not see that we were tremendously successful while other 9-1-1 centers were failing. '9-1-1 is a joke in your town.' (Public Enemy, 1990). Unfortunately, some of those observers became the managers. Their ruthless and obstinate ignorance attacked the 9-1-1 service for Tucson, but I opposed them through every possible means available to me. I tried to educate the managers, and I tried to educate the elected officials. I exposed managers' lies and bullying. I faced their retaliation, but I could not be silent. People were dying, silently and invisibly. That's what happens when 9-1-1 does not answer the call and send help promptly. People die quietly. Who will speak out for them.…
