Founded in 1565, St. Augustine is America’s oldest continuously occupied city sitting in the heart of Florida’s First Coast.

With 100 Things to Do in St. Augustine, Florida, Before You Die as your travel companion, your St. Augustine visit is sure to be an adventure. Did you know that at one time the Spanish, the English, the French, and the Dutch were all fighting for control of St. Augustine?

Enjoy this beautiful place with a quaint downtown that feels like a European village on the other side of the Atlantic. With more than 450 years of history, art, culture—and ghosts—St. Augustine offers a surprise around every corner while also maintaining its place as one of the top Southern towns to visit for anyone who loves the modern culinary movement or the charm of Old Florida.

Pages : 359
Book Description
After conquering the Internet, cats are now taking on linguistics! Since the advent of social media, cats have become a topic central to online communication, and the multitude of cat-related accounts now online has made this a world-wide phenomenon. Through cat-inspired varieties of language, we have developed a genre of cat-inspired vocabulary. And on our special social media accounts for our cats, we take on their identities, as we post, write, talk, and chat - as our feline friends. This innovative book provides linguistic analyses of the cyber 'Cativerse', exploring online language variation, and explaining key linguistic concepts – all through the lens of cat-related communication. Each chapter explores a different sociolinguistic phenomena, drawing on fun and engaging examples including memes, hashtags, captions and 'LOLcats', from platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. Innovative yet accessible, it is catnip for all 'hoomans' interested in how language is used online.
Catfulness
Author: A CatPublisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 1786486334
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Human beings love to create problems for themselves. I observe this on a daily basis, as do all my feline friends. They never stop, and one of their favourite tasks is to find more tasks to do. They are always looking for something, as if the life they have isn't enough. They say they're looking for happiness - but do they know what happiness is? We cats know the art of living. We eat when we're hungry, sleep when we're tired. Sitting for hours outside a mouse hole has taught us patience. Staring at an aquarium has brought us meditation. And we know how to please ourselves. Catfulness is a seven-week mindfulness programme for human beings. If they can live their lives more like us, the world will be more serene. As Sigmund Freud said, 'time spent with cats is never wasted.'

But when our focus and attention is sunk in darkness, that becomes all we experience in our lives. Manifesting offers a transformative new approach.

Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
The Zen of Photography: How to Take Pictures with your Mind's Camera is a collection of 100 sayings that the author has written over a 25 year period. By merging the study of photography and the study of Zen philosophy, one learns to use a camera a way of connecting more fully with the world. Consequently, a camera is not used as a wall between what is seen and what is experienced, but is a tool that serves to unite the photographer with what is experienced through the photographic process. This book teaches that photography is much more than f-stops, shutter speed and aperture settings, film choices, and camera purchases. If photography were merely a technical operation, robots could take great pictures. Learning is about readiness. Because you are a loving, thinking person who found this book, you want to be inspired to elevate your picture taking to a level in which you learn from the moments you observe and teach others to be moved by those moments. This book is ready for you. AUTHOR BIO: Paul Martin Lester is a Professor of Communications at California State University, Fullerton.
