William and Beatrice Hampston gladly welcome nine-year-old Russell Hendrix into their home in Nelson, British Columbia, in December of 1945. This older, childless couple enjoys the company of this orphaned boy who had been hiding in their barn. The Hampstons and the townspeople soon realize that Russell is an extraordinary child. He intimately knows the details of the Bible and of the life of Jesus Christ. Russell is popular with both the students at school and the adults in the community as they believe in his mission as a young preacher of the good word. When Russell resurrects his friend Lawrence from death, people suspect that he is Jesus Christ returned to earth as a small child. But Russell doesn't think he is Jesus, and he doesn't want to be Jesus. As he grows older, he faces enormous problems because many continue to pray to him despite Russell's insistence that he isn't Jesus Christ. The matter is laid to rest when sixteen-year-old Russell goes missing. Years later, the Vatican investigates whether or not the boy really was Jesus Christ.

This second edition of a unique text/reference identifies the appearance attributes of objects and the methods available for measuring them, bringing together much material not previously organized for ready reference. The primary premise here is that ``object appearance'' involves not only color, but such attributes as gloss, luster, and translucency. The first part of the book, concerned with nature of appearance, draws from the fields of physiology and psychology and considers the eye-brain combination and the way it receives and interprets light signals. This is followed by a consideration of the optical properties of objects from the physical standpoint. The second part of the book deals with the numerical scales used to measure object appearance. The discussion here draws on psychophysics in describing the uses of physical techniques to give numbers having psychological significance. The third part of the book covers instruments for the measurement of the attributes of object appearance, their principles of design, and a survey of the major ones in use. The final chapter discusses specific applications of appearance measurement. Includes appendixes and a glossary.
Reprint of the original, first published in 1874.

Life is about the choices we make; it explains why God made salvation a choice. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16. The choices we make in life, define who we are, shapes our path, and leads to our ultimate destination in life. Have you ever looked in the mirror and asked yourself these three simple questions: 1. What are the choices that govern my life? 2. Am I on the right path? 3. What is my final destination in my life? If you can successfully answer these questions with absolute trust in Jesus Christ, then you know you have made the right choices in your life. On the other hand, if you can’t answer these questions with Jesus Christ in the equation, then you know your life is on the wrong path. The truth is, part of what makes life very challenging and unpredictable, is the fact that you cannot change the past, but you can change the path to your future. God gives us only one day at a time; today is a gift and that’s all you have. Tomorrow is not guaranteed and today may be your last day on earth. This book will help you understand God through Jesus Christ like never before and also help you make the right choices for a better future. The kingdom of God should be your number priority and ultimate destination in life. Jesus is coming soon!
