The author describes his first use of methamphetamine, an all-too-familiar drug now, and then takes you through the hell that is addiction to recovery, relapse, denial, and final victory. Don presents his case through personal reflection and testimony from many others he has met through his Say NO to METH organization.

Why am I here? What should I be doing? What happens when we pass away? Have you ever felt an invisible presence around you? These are some of the questions addressed in this book. In the Beginning...A Spiritualist's Bible presents the philosophy of Spiritualism through the wisdom and insightful awareness of the patriarch of the Chapel of Awareness Spiritual Church, Reverend Eugene C. Larr. Rev. Larr was a Renaissance Man. Following his naval service in WW II, he began the practice of Buddhism in Hawaii. In college, he majored in the sciences and began his study of spiritualism under the guidance of Rev. Jean Bradley, a master clairvoyant, clairaudient and trance medium. Rev. Bradley was an African-American woman with a passion to teach others. These experiences led Rev. Larr to see clearly the golden thread of truth running through all religions. Rev. Larr's enlightened blending of Eastern and Western traditions into the golden thread is captured in this monograph. Teachings taken from his lectures and writings shared with students for more than thirty-five years are presented for the benefit and personal growth of all. Rev. Larr gifted these teachings to his long-time friend, Reverend Donald R. Schwartz, a talented healer and world-renowned artist. Rev. Schwartz compiled the many sources of these teachings and now shares Rev. Larr's teachings with the world through, In the Beginning...A Spiritualist's Bible.

Emilie and Jack are a young brother and sister off to their first day of swimming lessons. They're excited and nervous to be finally learning how to swim. Jack sings a little song to give him courage: I'm Swimming Along, singing a song. By the end of this colorful children's book, everyone has had a great day at the pool, and even their mom is singing Jack's song Author Lisa Herbertson wrote this book to encourage children to overcome their fears and to let them know that swimming is a fun and healthy activity. I had a part time job as a swimming teacher, and was surprised at how many children were afraid of swimming lessons. Swimming is such a crucial skill to have, and often parents aren't quite sure how to encourage their kids. Until recently, first-time author Lisa Herbertson was a professional field hockey player in Europe. She has a Sports Journalism degree from Canberra University in Australia, and is a sports writer, based in Sydney. The characters in Swimming Along were named after her niece and nephew, who were just learning to swim when she started writing it. Catherine Kennedy is a Sydney-based artist with a Master of Art from the College of Fine Arts (UNSW).With teaching experience and two children of her own, she understands the importance of visual input in motivation and learning. While parents are reading, children are immersed in the illustrations. I hope that the children who see this book will enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed creating them.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse, or POP, is a little talked about female health issue that half of all childbearing women will experience late in life. There are more than 300,000 surgeries for POP annually. Due to various causes such as menopause, estrogen loss, genetics, childbirth or heavy lifting, a woman's pelvic organs can shift or drop. This can lead to POP symptoms, including some painful and embarrassing ones, as well as impacting a woman's sexuality. The condition has probably always existed, but has received little press or public acknowledgement so women could learn about the condition and treatment options. This book on POP fills an unfortunate void in women's health awareness. Sherrie Palm writes about her own personal experiences in Pelvic Organ Prolapse: The Silent Epidemic. She had never heard about the condition until she needed surgery for it. Palm explores the subject from all angles, providing the information women need to recognize the symptoms of POP and to become advocates for their own health. Pelvic Organ Prolapse: The Silent Epidemic named the winner for Women's Health in the USA Book News National BEST BOOKS 2009 Awards. http: //www.usabooknews.com/2009bestbooksawards.html More information about Sherrie Palm, and how she is creating awareness for this women's health issue can be found on her website: http: //sherriepalm.com/home About the Author: First-time author Sherrie Palm is a retired business owner. She lives in Wisconsin with her significant other; she has four children and seven grandchildren. Palm plans to conduct educational seminars on POP. She is also actively involved with the local Special Olympics and will donate a portion of the book's proceeds to the group.

Book Eight considers the present state of our world, here at sundown on the sixth day. Eternity lies just ahead.

The Knowledge of Good and Evil begins with the state of today's society and how far it has wandered from the scriptures. It ends with inspirational studies from the word of God and from science.

Sin, first introduced in the Garden of Eden, has had six thousand years to grow, ferment, and corrupt the souls of men. What we now see is the end product of sin. Thank God His holy word endures, as do truth and the church.

At the foundation level of all humanity . . . from all time . . . rests this bedrock sense of right and wrong. This law of God is etched upon our innermost being. One can find its tentacles throughout the formation of man's laws, governments, and judicial systems. Search any civil law, common law, royal law, state and federal law, canon law, and even primitive tribal law. Despite their many differences, in each of them murder and mayhem are wrong; adultery, lying and stealing are wrong. Cheating and grifting are wrong. They all share this common link in the law of God written upon every man's heart. And it is from that hidden law that conscience selects her sermons as we encounter life's crossroads. I dare say that from criminal to pastor, all do hear the sermons. But like a packed Sunday morning church service, the majority enjoy and ignore the sermon, and head straight to a restaurant.

Part memoir, part manifesto, part self-help and part coming-of-age adventure story, Where's Your Daughter? is a roller-coaster of emotion, critique, advice, and introspection. Though Ms. Andersen's book will never be called art, the closest analogue that comes to mind is none other than William Carlos Williams' Paterson, in its one-volume edition. But instead of utilizing a variety of genres to focus upon a specific place, Where's Your Daughter? seeks to describe in vivid diversity, and with both compassion and passion, a particular phase of life, that of late adolescence. This is of interest because of the liminal character of this age group, and the ongoing puzzle of where to place it in society. For the author and her friends-whose antics and outlooks would likely make any conservative parent tear their hair out, but equally so, will force those liberal to reconsider their own values as well-are clearly no longer children, if not quite adults. But their youthful and ragged insights into both their own lives and the world at large mark them in an important way as being matured by the very process of learning how to settle power dynamics within the family and at work as well. To my knowledge, coming from one so young, this is a unique facet of the journey. That the author is able to effectively communicate this maturation process, warts and all, is to be taken as a delightful bonus for the reader. And speaking of such, every teen should read this book as a guide to getting a life for themselves, and every parent should read it in order to avoid snuffing out that very life. - Pre-Publication Reviewer
