Parallel Timelines, The Collective Human Field, the Earth Matrix... the ideas presented in "Shifting Timelines" may well be the most important information you receive in this lifetime. The inter-connection of these concepts, explained in this fascinating book, illuminates the reasons why the Law of Attraction may not be working for you. While the phrase "where attention goes, energy flows" may be true, what is also true is that there are hidden energies and emotions that can interfere with attracting what you want. These interferences are why even visualizing with feeling does not manifest what you desire. This book reveals not only what may be blocking your manifestation, and how it is being blocked, but also what you can do to move past those blocks. You'll also discover how easily you can be drawn into the world of disease, like cancer, through the Human Energetic Communication Field. More importantly, you'll learn how to dis-engage from the world of dis-ease with practical, easy-to-do exercises that can return you to wellness once again. Read this book, implement the ideas presented, and become the co-creator of the life you desire. Your world is about to change for the better!

Do multiple versions of ourselves exist in parallel universes living out their lives in different timelines? In this follow up to his bestseller, The Simulation Hypothesis, MIT Computer Scientist and Silicon Valley Game Pioneer Rizwan Virk explores these topics from a new lens: that of simulation theory. If we are living in a digital universe, then many of the complexities and baffling characteristics of our reality start to make more sense. Quantum computing lets us simulate complex phenomena in parallel, allowing the simulation to explore many realities at once to find the most "optimum" path forward. Could this explain not only the enigmatic Mandela Effect but provide us with a new understanding of time and space? Bringing his unique trademark style of combining video games, computer science, quantum physics and computing with lots of philosophy and science fiction, Virk gives us a new way to think about not just our universe, but all possible realities!

The awakening begins in an ascending consciousness with an unspecified dissatisfaction regarding the established rules and assumptions. You cannot identify the irritation, but it feels as if there should be something more. Because of this, you begin to look for answers outside of the normal channels and your awakening commences. The messages for awakening are as diverse as their sources because they are designed to reach different levels of consciousness—yet the truth is always the truth, though the form it takes may vary. Expansion for Ascending Consciousness is a cooperative effort to provide a basis for understanding consciousness and the energy construct we exist within. The intent is to remove the mysticism surrounding consciousness and embodied experience. While complex and miraculous in its design, consciousness is scientifically explainable and the foundation upon which the universe has been created. As an ascending collective, you have reached a time in your development where mysticism has outlived its usefulness. Truth comes in many forms, and thus the information you gravitate to at any given moment is dependent upon what resonates with your current level of awakening. At a point in this process you will look back upon the information you have accumulated and see that each one was a step that incrementally raised your awareness. Expansion for Ascending Consciousness contains the next step along this path of ascension.

How do international organizations in the United Nations system put together their budgets? What is the role of complex principals - most notably member states - and the complex agents in the bureaucracies of international organizations in budgeting processes? And what does a focus on budgeting tell us about the changing nature of the system of international organizations? This book provides answers to these questions through a detailed examination of budgeting in the UN system. The analysis draws on both quantitative and qualitative observations for a total of 22 UN system organizations and detailed case studies for the United Nations, ILO, UNESCO, and WHO. The findings demonstrate the importance of three key organizational outcomes-- proceduralization, routinization, and budgetary segmentation - as international organizations grapple with managing discord over priorities as a result of complex principal-- agent constellations. Contrary to a common view of international bureaucracies as pathological organizations, core budget routines are mostly successfully maintained. However, principal constellations become more complex, notably through the rise of voluntary contributions and non-state donors; budgetary segmentation advances, in some cases even leading to the setting up of new international organizations; and budgeting and resource mobilization become ever more intertwined. As a consequence, the capacity of international bureaucracies to fulfil their budgeting responsibilities is stretched to the limits and beyond.

It was as if she was looking at them through cloudy water. Suddenly the letters came back into focus, but now the words made sense. As she stood with the staff in one hand, she pointed her other hand at the writing and read, 'Here in stone lie the dragons, waiting for their knights to return. By the blood of the knight shall the dragon be reborn. Now enter the Dragon Knight.' As she finished the last word, she felt the staff in her hand rise into the air and then slam down into the stone floor with a loud bang. Then suddenly the light in the cave was gone, and she felt the stone beneath her feet fall away. Assigned by their father to help clean up part of a newly discovered, ancient city, sisters Erica and Elisabeth stumble into a cave above the city and accidentally awaken two great red dragons. With the dragons awake, magic returns to the earth. But what the sisters aren't prepared for is that along with magic, an ancient enemy, the Speculons, will also return to Earth. Now, the only hope for Earth is to awaken the rest of the sleeping dragons hidden around the world. Erica must use her newfound powers and her dragon to find and awaken each of the remaining dragons. They must reopen Heaven's Gate, a gateway to the magical worlds of mythical beings. Only by uniting the worlds of Heaven's Gate once more can an army with enough magic be raised that has any hope of defeating the Speculons. Join author D. K. Caldwell in the adventure of a lifetime as you discover the Days of the Dragons!
