When Tony Jaegyl goes to Florida to pack up the belongings of his old friend Walter Binn, who has been killed in an automobile accident, he is not prepared for the odd cast of characters he is about to become involved with: a young Navajo with a dying and ornery father, a violent-tempered aunt, and a girlfriend who claims that Walter's death was no accident; a racist neighbor bent on revenge; a couple of Mexican thugs who run a bookstore with a sideline of breaking and entering; a contractor's wife who likes revealing secrets-her own and other people's; her husband, who is collecting huge sums from both the state and private donors to build a highly controversial bypass; a former student of Tony's who wants to be a modern-day Sir Galahad but can't make anybody take him seriously; and a gas jockey with Communist leanings who answers to the name of Ugly. It's a tough lot to deal with, and after Tony has saved a young girl from the unwanted attentions of a local brute and been attacked in his bed by a wild man, it only gets tougher when he comes across one of them dead with a knife in his chest.

Son of Man explores the startling reason for why Jesus insisted upon referring to himself by this mysterious title. It is therefore a retelling of his final three years, usually called his "ministry years" from this unique angle. It also greatly expands one's understanding of who Jesus was and what he came to do. As the reader will discover, Jesus' work and purpose far exceeded anything men have imagined them to be up until now. This, in turn, leads to new insight into just how relevant all that Jesus accomplished two thousand years ago is for us today.

This is a book of motivational, inspirational, testimonial, words, thoughts and poems transcribed by the benevolent author Wise Poe. A Brooklyn New York born native 1st generation Caribbean American with southern roots, yet he knew not much family. As a result of the 1990s and prior struggles of the urban inner cities of America, Poe had to teach himself how to be a man. "RESURRECTED TO LIVE IS TO DIE" emerged through those trials, errors and lessons he manifested along his journey.

True family extends beyond just bloodlines. In the Holy Bible Jesus made that perfectly clear when He said, "For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother" (Matthew 12:50). Mom's friends who share love for her children, despite ethnic differences, become like her sisters and are considered family. They are usually called auntie or Tee. This book, "T's Tees Are Just Like a Mom," shows us that true love is colorblind, powerful, and adorable.

We are at the most critical juncture in all of history. Can you feel it? The one world government of the antichrist versus the eternal government of the Lamb of God. Increasing evil. A one-party system of government that you agree with or you will be attacked and silenced. The epic showdown between good and evil. Fortunately, as Christians, we know good will win out-Revelation tells us that. But what casualties will occur along the way? Can you say with absolute clarity which side God sees you on? And if you are on God's side, are you prepared to be His warrior in this epic battle?After eleven years of prison ministry and countless personal encounters with the hand of God and His miracles, Don Wettlaufer has written a guidebook for people to prepare to receive the returning Messiah. Rather than a Christian hunkered in fear, Wettlaufer shows readers how to be a Christian ready to be used by God during the upcoming spiritual revival during which all sin will be eradicated.

A DYSTOPIAN NOIR OF FIRST CONTACTThroughout the centuries of Earth's turbulent past, a malignant, neo-fascist death-cult known as the Soul Harvesters have schemed to one day gain control over civilization. Late in the 22nd century, a quantum singularity, God's Light, blossoms into dazzling life near Earth orbit, unleashing an Armageddon of flame and devastation, killing millions, plunging the world into abject suffering. Through the rift, humanity restively watches the remote cosmos where belligerent, advanced aliens clash for supremacy. Now, the Soul Harvesters have mutated into Overlord, a malevolent entity reigning over a dystopian Earth. Surmising the singularity aliens are an existential threat to their rule, Overlord tasks their finest scientists, the Gods of Chimera, to create genetically-engineered soldiers using a fearful population as ill-fated test subjects. Across the planet, paranoia flourishes while a melancholic people search for the light of hope within the darkness of their tortured lives. One such alienated soul is Detective Klaus Jürgen Müeller, a misanthropic anti-hero barely surviving in a bioengineered district of war and desolation. Tormented by his son's death at the time of the cataclysm, and his wife's subsequent descent into madness, he self-medicates with high-end synthetic drugs, rejects his own existence, and lives in a forever nightmare of sorrow and self-annihilation. In a futuristic noir of rebirth and redemption, Müeller is tasked with a secretive murder investigation connected to the development of the chimeras. Drowning under his own fractured sense of self, with time running out and pressure crushing him from all sides, he must evade tyranny, reckon with the sins of his past, and confront the looming doom of an alien invasion from the sinister unknown.

If you're holding this book and you're wondering what this story is all about, it's about the Abenaki people. These stories are of those people who lived in the Dawnland of Maine.

"The amiable Irish Wolfhound is an immense, muscular hound gracefully built along classic Greyhound lines, capable of great speed at a gallop. A male might stand nearly 3 feet at the shoulder and weigh up to 180 pounds. Females will run smaller but are still a whole lot of hound...."IWs are too serene to be fierce guard dogs, but just the sight of them is enough to deter intruders. IWs are characteristically patient with kids...."If you want an even-tempered giant dog that no one will want to test by bothering you, and if you can care for it, an Irish Wolfhound may be exactly right. Your food bills are likely to be gigantic, though.Barney's story combines many of the endearing qualities of these gentle giants.Bones, not quite as big as Barney, has a bigger job: cadaver dog. His sensitive nose and training made him a canine Sherlock Holmes, a solver of mysteries, one somewhat more lovable than Dr. Watson's wizard. What does Bones smell?

She is grateful for the opportunity to help others understand these loving companions. She grew up on a dairy farm in Upper New York State.

"Read Me, Liberals" is an attempt to awaken a certain class of people that are morally at risk. The modern United States political system is dominated by a two-party system, Democrats and Republicans. Either party is perfect nor will the ever be perfect, but the Democratic party has gone so far left it is a threat to the freedom and safety of American citizens. The modern Democratic party and their allies want to dramatically alter the United States to their fascist ideology. They want total control of you and I by any means necessary. They want to control how you think and what you can say. Most importantly they want you to be submissive to a complete totalitarian government control. This book exposes all the hypocrisy, corruption, and moral insanity that comes from the "left". Most importantly it exposes the two-tiered justice system, one for Democrats and one for the rest of us. This book is meant to target liberals, democrats, and independents but will help educate conservatives and Republicans as well. I challenge anyone that loves the United States to read this and help save this country while we still can. Liberals will continue to push their one-world order agenda until they get what they want. The United States is more politically divided than any other time in history and we need to come together somehow.

Author Lloyd Lim's second collection of nine short stories spans multiple genres, including crime noir, science fiction, romance and tales about ordinary people. The tone runs the gamut from the tragic to the comic. Mr. Lim has created plots of greater complexity and character development than were present in his first collection, but he continues to demonstrate his adherence to Shakespeare's quip from Hamlet, The Prince of Denmark Act 2, Scene 2 that "brevity is the soul of wit." The story protagonists include: a cop tracking down a serial killer while harboring feelings for his partner; an assistant pastor investigating his daughter's death; a young man with a bad attitude; an elderly woman who escapes her retirement facility; a lonely wife with a powerful husband; a private investigator who meets a woman who draws him into a conspiracy with long tentacles; a man in the 22nd century who must propose to a much younger woman with whom he has been paired by a computer; a man with a cockamamie business idea.Mr. Lim has also included a brief, one-act play ideal for a student production on a shoestring budget. The play deals with the perennial issue of the artist versus the art object and the sacrifices one may be forced to make for an artistic life. Finally, because we find ourselves in a hyper-partisan time, Mr. Lim has included some simple ideas for understanding the basis for the partisan divide and for navigating and rising above it.Mr. Lim has taken his study of literature and film to fashion stories with both literary and cinematic aspects. In fact, one short story was adapted from a previously written screenplay. Mr. Lim writes in both first- and third- person narrative styles; he believes that thinking like an actor can help develop the dramatic aspects of literary fiction. His test for a protagonist? Would an actor badly want to play this part? This collection should appeal to a broad range of readers, from young adults to seniors. It is accessible to those with a range of educational backgrounds and doesn't preach only to those with a specific set of political or social values. If a film rating were attached to these stories, it would go no higher than PG-13. The stories vary in length, but none are so long that they would burden busy professionals.

These days buyers will only engage with salespeople who provide value as a consultative partner. This means those sellers must up their game in both knowledge and skill. That places the challenge squarely on the back of sales enablement and sales training professionals. While this has always been a unique challenge in the world, it is especially urgent now. There was a time when it was believed that salespeople were actually born and could not be trained. Now we all know better, but we struggle to build that perfect program. This book offers an approach to sales training that should address that challenge. The training and enablement need of sales teams has evolved over the years, but the pandemic accelerated the change required. This book will provide a guide for those of you in the sales enablement and sales training world to help you develop effective sales training and sales enablement programs. Salespeople are a unique breed with an extremely tough job, and effective programs can enable their success and return business results for the company. This book will make you the hero of that story.

This book uses humor to demonstrate the many errors public speakers make, and thus to help presenters improve their presentations. It is directed at all types of presenters, particularly Academics, Scientists, Ministers, Teachers, Lawyers and Students.The reverse psychology approach of the book amusingly uses the view that the reader will want to make the mistakes deliberately, so as to obscure the delivered information just enough to intrigue listeners and make them feel that the speaker had something important to say. Various topics addressed include audio-visual aids, preparation, behavior of the presenter, and voice projection.The book ends with a brief serious essay of what to do to make a truly impactful presentation.Categories that this book falls under might include: Humor, public speaking, "how to present your information." How to... Do it yourself, and Effective public speaking.

This book of Nostredame was essential in remembering the foot ladder, which I have tread as an add-er. The trace was hard to lace sometimes, to tie off ends that gave me a grace, but were not a complete race. I won't be anywhere without dead ends. They let me hide and collide. This book is for my daughter, for her I would be gone farther. Actually, I don't think I would have made it as a birder if her grace hadn't required my mace. I protect the delicate. In that I am a father. I could not allow her this fate. She is style and grace, all that I am not. I am just lethal in a box. Nostredame was a bait, literally of fate: Pandora's box of rocks, agony and ecstasy. Their stones are still getting thrown. I wish only for the grey line inn between. All research gathered, written, categorized, de-coded, published by Iona Costello, formerly Iona Mereenie Malcolmson of Shelter Island: the mal has come.

A gay woman by name of Nicole from Los Angeles, California decides to run for the Presidency of United State's of America at age of 29. Nicole would have the support of her parents and has the support of her Partner Jennifer and her Mom and stepdad. She would state the reasons way she is running as President. "Today I'm I am making my Official Announcement. That I'm running as an Independent Candidate for the Presidency of the United States of America. The American People deserve a President that will put themselves above the partisan bickery that Republican and Democratic Party are more interested in at the expense of the American people than tackling the issues that are facing this Country and American People." During the Presidential Campaign. They will have to face bigotry, hate, and intolerance. Nicole is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in either. Also during the Presidential Campaign. Nicole & Jennifer will wear a small flag representing the LGBT Community as well. They will also face to confront Bigotry, hate, and intolerance on Campaign trail as well. In one Presidential debate She will also be asked about the LGTB Laws that have become law in this country. "Which are driven by bigotry, hate, and intolerance. Just because somebody is gay or transgender doesn't make them any less of human being or person. It doesn't not give any politicians the right to pass laws in any country. To treat somebody like me. Who is Gay. As second-class citizen in their own country." When I wrote the characters, I wanted them to be related able and believe able. Also, that characters of Nicole and Jennifer be positive role models for women to look up too. Also take on the issues of the day as well.
