With the World Wide Web growing at a furious pace, spreading its tentacles into every nook and cranny of the genealogy world, the appearance of this book on Web publishing is as timely as it is welcome. Over the past few years genealogy Web sites have been proliferating at such an incredible rate that the Web now provides the best opportunities for locating source materials, contacting other researchers, sharing family information, and publishing the results of your research. 
Not only does it provide a means of locating an infinite array of how-to sources, reference materials, and resources of almost every type imaginable, including research centers, genealogical organizations, archives, repositories, and databases, but it also offers an ideal way to publish special-interest material which would never find a traditional publisher but might yet command a wide audience. As a low-cost medium accessible to millions of readers, the Web offers unlimited potential for genealogists to publicize the results of their researches, their surname interests, transcripts of original source materials, and anything else of a genealogical nature. 
The aim of this book, written by Peter Christian, the editor of Computers in Genealogy and Webmaster for the Society of Genealogists, is to look at what is involved in publishing your genealogy on the Web and to offer some guidance in how to get started. In plain English, Mr. Christian explains what the World Wide Web is, why the Web is especially useful for genealogists, how Web pages work, what you need for Web publishing, and the process of Web publishing itself. Then, as simply as possible, he discusses HTML and other Web-authoring tools, as well as text editors, word processors, GEDCOM conversion tools, and genealogy software. 
At the center of the book he includes a lengthy section on Web site design, explaining what to include, how to organize your information, HTML "tags" and basic page design, the difference between good and bad Web design, and the legal and ethical issues surrounding Web publishing. He makes ample use of computer screen shots to illustrate how to use a text editor to create simple Web pages and demonstrates the type of page layout and design facilities that are available. Two final chapters explore advanced Web facilities--style sheets, image maps, frames, and access control--and how, finally, to publish your Web pages and lure visitors to your site. 
Rounding out the book there are a glossary of Web terminology, a bibliography of books, articles, and online resources, a subject index, and--you guessed it--a Web site devoted to the book which is full of supplemental information! 
"He offers clear explanations and practical advice on using web page editing and other Net tools as well as providing copious references to online sources for more information on all his topics. His recommendations on using HTML-enabled editors and word processors are excellent. . . . This is an excellent, concise and tailored presentation of home page development and tools for the genealogist."--George W. Archer, NGS/CIG Digest (May-June 1997), commenting on the original edition.

The Work of All Ages is a brief history of the Jewish people, from the days of Abraham to the present. The Jews are a very intelligent group, hard working and well organized, but are often resented, despised and persecuted.
From ancient times, they have had a vision of Jewish world supremacy, based on the belief that they are God's "chosen people." Today they look forward to the coming of the Jewish messiah, who will lead them to rule the world from Jerusalem. The state of Israel—in Jewish eyes the reincarnation of the legendary kingdoms of Solomon and David—however, has no problem with targeting the great Christian and Muslim centers of the world with nuclear weapons if it is threatened with destruction before this comes about, i.e., "the Samson Option."
In 33 chapters, this book reviews some of the things the Jews have done over the centuries—often in great secrecy—to advance this agenda. Included are the following: the conquest of Canaan; unity in dispersion; development of the Talmud and Kabbalah; conversion of the Khazars to Judaism; support of the Protestant reformation; development of Freemasonry; institution of central banking systems; the Rothschild Protocols; the creation of Order of the Illuminati; the creation of the Sabbatean sect—worship of Lucifer; the development of Communism and Zionism; the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion; the Bolshevik overthrow of the Christian czar in Russia; the creation of the Frankfurt School in Germany and the foisting of Cultural Marxism on the peoples of the Western world; control of the media; formation of the state of Israel; the infiltration and undermining of the Vatican; the globalization movement; and the institution of the so-called "New World Order."

Annal, David

How well is your company doing? Are you employing the best business practices and doing them well? Is the company committed to its ongoing success? Have you built good relationships with your associates? Are you trusted in your business dealings? And are you as agile as the top performers are? Then you are doing good things and are well on the way to success.Or, are you and your employees failing to own up to problems and neglecting to fix them? Is change passing you by and your competitors are gaining or surpassing you? Does your company encourage performance responsibility and accountability? How are decisions made? Are they usually bad and made repeatedly? Then you are on a bad course and need to make changes before the business becomes a disaster.Worst of all, is there a lack of honesty about how things are going? Are you not owning up to your problems and issues, because that is the way things are done here? How correct are you about knowing what the real problems and issues are? Or are you willing to get other viewpoints and pay attention to them? Are you properly incentivizing people or paying out money that you cannot afford to? Most of all, how good is your communication inside and outside of the company? Do people know what needs to be done and what their roles are? If any of these ugly things are true, you are in big trouble.Peter Christian has worked for and with many companies throughout his 40-year career. He was an executive and trusted business adviser. He has seen businesses succeed or fail. Each category can produce good, bad or ugly results. It all depends upon their utilization and application. The stories are real. Who did or is doing them doesn't matter. What does matter is what to do, how to do it, and why it should be done. It is a matter of success or failure, the choice is yours.
