Grown-Up Stuff for Dummies covers some of the topics not thought suitable to have been mentioned at the same time as please and thank you, don't slurp the soup, and it is no longer funny or clever if you burp in public.Exams and interviews, being rich and poor, contracts, cars and kissing, flying, lying and lawyers, dating, drinking, dentists, and divorce, sports and games on fields and beds; these are just some of the things that confront everyone today-like it or not. So it is well to have at least thought about them.This is not a conventional yoga-and-yoghurt self-help volume. It may well not always be the popular view. It will likely raise the odd squawk from the politically correct. So be it, but if nothing else it addresses grown-up stuff all us dummies need for dealing with life in C21.

This book talks about the reasons why many people from Central America emigrate to the United States. This is also about how it was my journey and how I crossed the desert of the United States. In reality, most of us as immigrants have a past that has marked our lives, and I dare to talk about this so that all the people of the world see the cruel reality that we have to pass to arrive in United States.

Odisea, un año de inmigrante en los EE. UU., narra, como su nombre lo indica, un viaje y las anécdotas que vivió una persona en los EE. UU. como inmigrante, los problemas a los que se tuvo que enfrentar y cómo con su fe puesta en Jesucristo, y encontrando al amor de su vida, pudo salir adelante, despertando en ella ese ser dormido que todos traemos dentro. Como lo dice un refrán español, "De músico, poeta y loco, todos tenemos un poco".Este libro puede disfrutarse por su contenido de recetas típicas mexicanas, muy al estilo del autor, sus cuentos infantiles creados por ella misma, y sus poesías inspiradas por ese amor que nos llega a todos en algún momento de nuestras vidas y que sabemos identificarlo, porque en la mayoría de las veces lo dejamos ir sin darnos cuenta, motivado por todos los convencionalismos sociales que vivimos diariamente.

Seventeen short stories and novelettes compose Whispers and Screams. While these stories are from the realms of horror, science fiction, and fantasy, they are also stories about people, about loneliness, insanity, love, politics, philosophy, food, power, about human feelings and behavior in these dynamic times. A large number of the protagonists are minorities or women. Many of the stories owe their heritage to the black-and-white horror movies of the late thirties and forties and the B-grade science fiction of the fifties."Proteus Rex" is about a genetically engineered life-form that adapts the attributes of animals (a lion's strength, a bird's wings) or whatever his survival needs and infinite appetites dictate. Having consumed all the animal life in a small rural community, he begins to eat people. Much of the story is about the local authority's attempt to identify and apprehend this menace, a significant challenge as Proteus Rex is an extradimensional being that can change his size to as small as an amoeba to as large as a blue whale. "Proteus Rex" is populated by a deep cast of characters, only a few of whom manage not to get eaten.Imagine the actress Lucy Liu portraying Ian Fleming's most shrewd creation, James Bond, 007.

Executive Action Officer Sun Park's mission is to capture or neutralize the perpetrators that sent and detonated an atomic bomb in the TSA X-port Freight Hub in Buenos Aires. This is the premise of "The Price of a Dog," an action-driven novella, a political science fiction thriller.In the short story "Slaves of the Cat Goddess," Buster, the main character (and stooge of General Wanamaker), is charged to take the mysterious cat Bast to a secret research base. Bast's size and ferocity force a crash landing on an uncharted tropical island inhabited by cannibals. Knowing that it was Buster who was responsible for her mutation, Bast not only protects him in this hostile world, but she sees that he is elevated, serving as the ambassador between the goddess Bast and the humanity she would enslave.

THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO THE BRAVE UNITED STATES MARINES WHO SERVED DURING THE TURBULENT ERA OF THE VIETNAM WAR.ALTHOUGH THIS BOOK IS FICTIONAL, SOME OF THE EVENTS PORTRAYED ARE BASED ON THE ACTUAL EXPERIENCES OF THE AUTHOR.MY MOTTO IN LIFE IS "GOD, COUNTRY, CORPS."

War on the Beach With Wall Street is a look back to late 2007 through the end of 2009, at the time of the largest financial market crash since the 1929 Depression, " The Great Recession." This book is about a Florida Financial Adviser, Andrew Neff, who had recently acquired a new widowed client. This was not just any client, her deceased husband who was killed in a Ferrari car wreck in late 2003, which was not investigated for foul play, had recently sold two riverboat gambling casinos for 179 million dollars. He also owned and ran one the largest and most successful road construction companies in the Country at that time. Andrew Neff who identified and understood all the signs of a serious market implosion due to the repeal of the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act , approved by US Congress and signed into law by then President Bill Clinton in late 1999, and with the Federal Reserve aggressively raising interest rates into this economic environment, surely spelled economic disaster for the US and World markets. This financial white collar crime thriller takes any reader through the complicated maze of helping a wealthy widow comprehend what was about to happen in our economy, but also enabled the client to avoid $20 million dollars of avoided market losses right before the crash but that's not the best part of this story. The client owned LLP's to the tune of $5 million that were invested in off shore accounts in the Cayman Islands with Morgan Stanley. Through Mr. Neff's investigation these investments could not be identified as to their asset class and 12 % per year annual fees charged to the client. These Assets were held as a Madoff Feeder Fund that would have disappeared from the client's Net Worth statement, were sold three months prior to Bernard Madoff being indicted, then arrested for running the largest Ponzi scheme in history. In 2011, Bernard Madoff's accountant Frank Avellino was in trial when his attorney Gary Woodfield Esq., stated under oath "My client lost $50 million in this deal. There was not one investor who was able to get out before the scam was uncovered." It was also posted on May 18, 2011 by the Inquirer and Mirror was reported by Jason Graziadei and quoted by Gary Woodfield esq. in trial "...you can't hold him to some higher standard, that he should have perceived or detected that there was some massive scam going on when no one else in the entire world detected that." Well Mr. Woodfield, you were not correct. Yours very truely Andrew Neff

Within the pages of the Bible God has placed pictures of the promise that He made to Adam in Eden. This is the Gospel, the good news that a Savior would come and restore to man what the Devil had stolen. These pictures can be found beneath the surface of many of the events and personages of the Old Testament. The purpose of this book is to reveal these pictures and to move the reader beyond the historicity and morality of the Word of God, as important as those are, and to show that the Bible is a truly supernatural document without equal in the sacred texts of the world's religions. It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter. Proverbs 25:2 "I found "His Hidden Glory" to be a very well written overview of the entire Bible in a fraction of the space. This work reflects years of diligent study by David Puffer."Dr. Dan Tyler, D.Min., president, International Seminary, Apopka, Florida. "This book really touched me personally. The insights of the Old Testament really shined light on the New Testament, bringing the Bible completely together. I never noticed how the Old Testament was really foretelling about the Messiah in the way this book explains it.Dr. Joe Kiray, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. "I started to read this book and could not put it down. It's awesome to see how the Lord has given such incredible revelation of Himself and His truth encoded within His words. It's fascinating and yet at the same time it kind of blows your mind to think that the truth has always been there but only the Spirit can reveal it. That's why I love this book. It reminds me of how the Apostle Paul would present the revelations that God would show him about His Kingdom and then Paul would in turn explain them to his listeners. I thank God for this book and know that it will be a blessing to all who would read it."Theresa Sullivan, Pittsburgh Pa.

Psychologist and struggling aspiring writer Kris Bronson was just your ordinary hardworking guy. But that was the problem. He wanted more. Desperate for the search of finding the imagination he craves so badly for his own writing, he looks to the minds of the criminally insane, particularly two men who seem to have survived the annals of time. What started off as a job turned into one of the most fantastical roller-coaster rides Kris would ever experience. Carried by the tales of the Trojan War, to the demise of Julius Caesar, and even a nod to the Arthurian legend of Camelot, Kris finds the imagination he has been looking for. As he sees the magic of these two seemingly insane, dangerous men go to work on his mind, the stories of worlds within our own, guarded by monstrous and magical figures, he realizes that he is doing much more than finding a cure to his writer's block. He is being convinced that there is much more to this world than he ever realized, one that would inevitably be the end of the world as we know it by the hands of a modern-day terrorist that seems to have his own magical ties to Kris and the two men he conducts his sessions with.

This is a touching life story of how an extraordinary Methodist preacher and his wife raised a family of eleven children in rural West Virginia. The things they accomplished for other people; plus, the depth and magnitude of their amazing experiences are most unusual because they comprise a lifetime of adventure and hardship, of happiness and heartache. Their response to these experiences is bold, humorous, powerfully creative, and deeply moving. It is an astonishing journey. Many of the life experiences shared are genuinely humorous and absolutely amazing in terms of being a positive influence on one's life. The experiences include both successes and failure, which seem to be equally remarkable. They are largely fluid situations that could go either way. They could have a rewarding ending or a very unfortunate ending. It is fair to say they are all exceptionally meaningful. One of the reasons for this relates to the constant theme that runs throughout. That theme is to fulfill a higher calling on one's life. Both pastor and wife have a command for life, which affords the sensitivity to enjoy the moment and the passion to persuade others to make the journey with them. Hopefully, the pages that follow afford all of us the opportunity to make the journey with them.

El presente libro no es tomado de la vida real, ES UN CASO DE LA VIDA REAL, la vida del protagonista. El libro describe en una forma amena la vida del autor desde su infancia, con las travesuras propias de su edad; su vinculación y estadía en la Armada de Chile, las aventuras vividas como marino en la Isla Quiriquina, la Base Naval de Punta Arenas y Valparaíso; su detención en la Quinta Normal Santiago de Chile, en las cárceles y en los campos de concentración, los tormentos que debió soportar y las varias veces que estuvo a un paso de la muerte, acusado injustamente de sedición y motín en el juicio de los marinos constitucionalistas que se oponían al golpe militar del 11 de septiembre de 1973, pese a que rechazaba los planes sediciosos de la Armada, oficialmente, no formaba parte del grupo y su oposición, era netamente personal. Es una obra humana que muestra sin tapujos los horrores cometidos por algunos militares en el régimen que vivió Chile de 1973 a 1990 Para escribir este libro, el autor viajó atrás al pasado en el tiempo en que vivió lo ocurrido; está escrito usando el mismo lenguaje sin escatimar el vocabulario original de la juventud de esos años, recordando el momento, sin pensar en la gramática, presentándole al lector la oportunidad de vivir y sentir el drama de la situación.La acción, la aventura y el dramatismo son narrados con sentimiento, risas y lagrimas de un ser humano.

Lo que me dio inspiración para escribir esta novela fue un caluroso atardecer en las frescas aguas de las playas de un suburbio francés, la puesta del sol, los rayos del sol dardeaban la planicie de la inmensidad del océano atlántico; eso era en el poniente, del lado opuesto, la luna llena se asomaba en las altas montañas dándole un colorido y resplandor que era capaz de paralizarte por unos instantes. Atónito a lo que se apreciaba en la lejanía, para ese tiempo había leído una infinidad de libros, recordé uno de ellos escrito por el Dr. Lozano: "Si ellos pudieron escribir un libro ¿porque tú no? y así se gestó "El Esplendor de Águila". La crianza con mis antecesores me hizo amar la flora y fauna. Respetar el prójimo y ser una persona positiva, porque el águila es la reina de las aves, de las altas montañas, puede ver las alturas y saca del lago pescados de gran tamaño. No tan sólo eso, se renueva después de los treinta años, se estrella contra las rocas, renovando así sus garras ese es el "Esplendor del Águila". Eso debemos imitar los humanos, dañamos nuestro cuerpo con las atrocidades que en el pasado nos sucedió. Debemos imitar el águila cuando alza el vuelo nunca mira atrás. Olvidemos el pasado, al maligno; mira de frente y perdona, si lo haces, tú estás perdonándote. Si vas buscando a Dios, no irás muy lejos por que Dios está en tu ser.

To methylate or not to methylate? That is the question! Methylation chemistry has received tremendous attention recently due to the discussions circling around the MTHFR gene. Methylfolate and methylcobalamin (Methyl B12) are nutrient supplements being recommended more often, as of late. Many medical conditions can possibly be exasperated due to the lack of these nutrients or improper metabolism. But are they?Understanding the reasoning behind this thought is actually one for concern. Heart disease (arterial sclerosis) and other medical conditions can be traced back to the biochemical methylation pathway. Problems with the protection of DNA can also be associated with this pathway. Mutations may, in fact, occur due to this very set of biochemical pathways. However, is it correct for everyone to be taking methylfolate and methylcobalamin (Methyl B12)? Does it match every individual's chemistry?Methylfolate and methylcobalamin are just some of the molecules that are part of this story, but not the entire answer. MTHFR is just one gene that is part of a vast and complex methylation system.In this book, the authors give a clear description for easier understanding of the who, what, and why of methylation chemistry. It brings to light the very question of a methylation issue some people may have. Through candid conversations between hypermethylators and by relating the symptoms and effects of methylation, the reader can gain a better perspective of living with the symptoms of hypermethylation within this selected group. In addition, this book provides a generalized understanding of the biochemical processes, which are the underlying causes of the symptoms of hypermethylation. Other conversations with a doctor who has expert knowledge of methylation chemistry further expounds upon this complexity. Hypermethylating people are those who should be very careful when using methylating nutrients or when eating foods which are methylating. Are you a hypermethylator?

It is of Jehovah's loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness. Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.-Lam. 3:21-24 (ASV)
