An Ígálá-English Lexicon: A Bilingual Dictionary with Notes on Igala Language, History, Culture and Priest-Kings

Ígálá language, which is spoken in parts of Kògí, Énúgu, Ánámbra, Delta and Bénúé States of Nigeria, is one of the world's increasingly endangered languages. Unless something changes soon, it will be lost forever. John Idakwoji spent more than thirty years researching the language so that he could share with the world its oceanic depth and the sacred, unique but under-exploited culture that it nurtures even in its seldom written, rarely described and sparsely documented state of being. The book takes the bull by the horns, as it equips Igala teachers and students with the tools they need to engage in practical learning and instruction. You'll find: insights on the properties and characteristics of the language, including its alphabet, tones, grammar, parts of speech, dialects, loan-words, and more. features of the lexicon and how readers can recognize and use vocabulary. over five thousand head-words presented in alphabetical order and bearing diacritical marks, phonetic symbols, and tone marks to enable interested non-Igalas to read the book. Research-based information on Igala's prehistoric origins and the three successive dynasties that have ruled the land bring a personal touch to the lexicon. There is a desperate need and a vociferous call for Ígáláà to be preserved, and An Ígálá-English Lexicon answers that clarion call with an impressive trove of data, analysis, and documentation.

My main point of writing this book is to depict all the happenings in Tawau from 1963 during the Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation, the youth movement in Tawau, the Jaycees, and how I was involved working toward my career till I retired in 1998.

Animation, a lifes passion Animation has always been Jacques Mullers life passion. Since he was a small kid, he wanted to draw Cartoon characters that he had seen on the screen. These Cartoons were magical to him. The screen was no longer a flat surface but a window opening new worlds and other realities. After having practiced drawing through all his childhood and adolescence, he eventually had his first break into the industry in 1977 as a storyboard artist. Working for several years for the French TV channel TF1 and other studios in Paris, he eventually got the opportunity to fly to Sydney Australia in 1982 to work on a TV series. Another five years passed before he could enter the feature film arena for the big screen. Since, many major Hollywood studios employed him as a character animator on sixteen different productions. This allowed him to make some great encounters with big names in the Hollywood animation industry. Today he occupies the position of senior lecturer at SIDM (School of Interactive Digital Media) at Nanyang Polytechnic of Singapore; teaching students the arcanes of Classical animation. This book tells the story of his long journey into the world of Cartoons.

No Such Thing as Terminal: The Rediscovery of the Lost Secret German Cure for Cancer and the Fountain of Youth

“No Such Thing as Terminal : The Re-Discovery of the Lost Secret German Cure for Cancer and The Fountain of Youth. “ Genetic Engineering is not just a futuristic fantasy which is often how Hollywood portrays it to be. Rather it exists in the here and the now and has been in existence with a technical theory that has been giving positive results since the 1930’s. These innovations have however been secretly suppressed for a multitude of reasons not the least of which is political power. Now in this book is discussed one person’s accidental hit on the secret cure for cancer using genetic engineering. A cure which has existed since the 1930’s and has repeatedly been tried both in vivo and in vitro. Herein is explored one person’s speculations, scientific discoveries, and evidence of both the credibility of the medicine and the conspiracy of the cover-up. DNA was not first discovered by Crick and Watson nor were they really the first to describe its structure. This was done long before them with the advent of the invention of Quantum Mechanics which began in earnest in 1926 with the work of Schrodinger and earlier with the work of Von Laue in crystallography.
