The author and problem-solver Barbara Davis presents well-researched, logical, workable, plausible, and probable solutions to the question of whether nature created itself or was created by God. Influenced by the distinct difference between a material world where all things die and the existence of a Creator, we prefer to prove the existence of God. Miracles disprove a material world because miracles disprove the physical laws of nature. To account for our world it must be a VIRTUAL REALITY made to represent a material world. Working with His imagination, God constructs the images of all matter at a location including any sensory and motion information occupying space, which is a non-material background along a stream of sequential present moments, during which one experiences with awareness Life. In another manner, God is able to share any experience with others. With matchless perseverance, Davis finds the many missing facts which God would require to create a civilization. The loving relationships between God and others and between the others motivate God to produce as a work of art the Book of Life. It is becoming a whale of a success. Plan for Heaven. Grow in self-respect, respect for others and respect for our awesome God.

"Lizzy Moon never wanted Moon Girl Farm. Eight years ago, she left the land that nine generations of gifted healers had tended, determined to distance herself from the whispers about her family's strange legacy. But when her beloved grandmother Althea dies, Lizzy must return and face the tragedy still hanging over the farm's withered lavender fields: the unsolved murders of two young girls, and the cruel accusations that followed Althea to her grave. Lizzy wants nothing more than to sell the farm and return to her life in New York, until she discovers a journal Althea left for her - a Book of Remembrances meant to help Lizzy embrace her own special gifts. When she reconnects with Andrew Greyson, one of the few in town who believed in Althea's innocence, she resolves to clear her grandmother's name. But to do so, she'll have to decide if she can accept her legacy and whether to follow in the footsteps of all the Moon women who came before her." --Publisher.

Every year technology projects face hard decisions about how to mitigate risk and address challenges as teams work to deliver on the promised business value in terms of ROI by creating useful solutions. Those decisions impact scope at every step and help evolve it until the final product is delivered and implemented. It means scope cannot be set in stone. Current literature focuses on scope under the project manager, not as a task that is impacted by multiple factors before, during and after the project. This guide crosses roles, phases and the triple constraint barriers to identify the risks and issues of restricting scope management to a single role, and demonstrates how it should be managed. Going Beyond the Waterfall explains how to define scope at the outset of a project. It provides a solid model for predicting, and managing solution scope across a project life cycle where the decisions and actions of every project team member contribute to that evolutionary process. It will help project teams understand how and when scope shifts and changes as a part of a living development process. This guide identifies the impacts that key tasks and activities will have on scope and how each can be managed effectively to prevent unnecessary scope creep and reduce run-away projects. Key Features Defines scope from program management to business case, to requirements and business as usual (BAU) Identifies how scope evolves and what causes it to change Describes how project and enterprise architecture methodologies impact scope & management Demonstrates the implications of change management and implementation on scope throughout development and roll-out processes Discusses the evolution of scope as a key process in the achievement of the project objectives Explains the definition and management process of scope from concept to implementation Illustrates how stakeholder engagement, requirements, project and enterprise architecture methodologies impact scope & management
