    Al Miller brings twenty-five years as a Los Angeles police officer as part of nearly twenty years as a sergeant with rounded experience in criminal, civil, and personnel investigations, which provided a full quarter century of experience in dealing with all manner of personalities leading to a thirty-four-year association with numerous celebrities wherein their personal security was demanded. In this documented report of those twenty-five years as a cop and thirty-four years as a private investigator with the television world, after service in the Marine Corps Miller attended multiple college classes but regrettably did not achieve a degree. Miller shares his experience with death threats, crazy mail, and stalkers and how each of these threats were managed without harm to the individual celebrity and without any reportage or embellishment of the matter through the tabloid press.

    The author, D. B. Knight, plays the part of Samantha Whitfield, and the novel contains her point of view throughout the entire story as she portrays an FBI agent who has the difficult task of capturing weapons smugglers and a murderer who turns out to be a high-ranking official in the local police department. The story takes place along the coastline of North Carolina near several military bases but begins in the small, quiet town of Swansboro, which was an unlikely spot for the state police to run across this undercover agent, especially when she surprisingly turns out to be a redheaded female cop who'd been shot, handcuffed, and left for dead at an old, run-down, vacant warehouse that rats wouldn't inhabit, but it was stocked with stolen military weapons. Samantha, Sam, is found in the nick of time by Captain Ronald Lawson of the state police and his partner due to the frantic cry for help from Marsha Harman, who was Sam's closest friend and later turned out to be the only material witness to a double murder the police would ever have. After some time in the hospital, facing a near-death experience, Sam is forced to take her long-accumulated vacation leave. She takes stock of her personal life and soon meets a man named David, and they quickly fall in love. The rocky road to a once-in-a-lifetime romance between Same and David has an unusual and surprising ending, if not a shocking one. Their future relationship as a "team" isn't revealed until chapter one of Ms. Knight's next novel Deadly Intentions. The mystery continues there and picks up speed as Sam tracks down the brains of the weapons-smuggling ring, which isn't this criminal's only crime. He must be caught, one way or another. The hunter becomes the hunted as the game turns toward vengeance, which leaves only one question unanswered. Can Sam commit cold-blooded murder?

  • - The Heart of the Matter
    von Smith Antonette Smith
    16,00 €

    Behind the Scenes-The Heart of the Matter volume 4 (God Cleansing My Insides, Me Facing Truth about Myself) is just what this book is about. The Lord began to do a deep cleansing of my insides, the inward sins that was killing me. The inward hatred and unforgiveness that was fueling my bad behavior. The issues that made my spirit sick and flesh weak. And when He began to do His work in me, I had to face the real truth about myself-that I was no good for anything or anyone. I appeared to be very happy, nice, and helpful but I knew everything I said, did, or thought was distorted. My motives were all clouded and wrong. They all were coming from a place of falseness, it wasn't real because I wasn't real. I was detached emotionally and physically from everything and everyone. You can be making and having babies, married, working, and helping people, while being detached from it all. Read how the Lord Jesus cleansed me from my sins, washed me from my iniquities, blotted out all my transgressions, purged me with hyssop, and created in me a clean heart and right spirit that I might know truth in my inward parts and wisdom in my hidden parts."Thank, thank God for you. Be encouraged, you are going a great work, mighty woman of God. Bless you." -Rev. Charles Caston Sr. Brookhaven, Mississippi "Powerful writing, God has really done something great in you. How, when, do you find the time to write and in detail of every account? I am very proud of you." -Rev. Amos Bridges Monticello, Mississippi "Sometimes the best story you can tell is yours. You never know what a person is going through or been through. Keep doing what God has called you to do. Don't let no one stop you. I am very proud of you and no matter where God take you, you are always my member first. I love you." -Rev. Wyatt Lewis Hazlehurst, Mississippi

  • - Values and Beliefs
    von Paul Frank Beisbier
    45,00 €

    The work that is about to be surveyed by the reader represents decades of painstaking work to provide him or her with the most positive and freshest perspective with respect to what the discipline of history teaches him or her to improve the quality of not only his or her daily life but also those of all other whom he or she comes into contact with. This task is accomplished when he or she becomes aware of the fact that the greatest possible good can only be achieved through the promotion of the adequate satisfaction of the greatest number of needs of the maximum number of people within the context of its being mutually beneficial to all parties involved.Furthermore, the reader of this volume gains the widest perspective on how the above assertion is valid for and has a positive impact on all fields of human endeavor, individual human lives, and human institutions, since the content of historical subject matter consists of nothing less than the past and present record of all the events and developments of the above entities. Thus, since everything that people learn is through past and present experiences, history teaches them everything and nothing can be perceived outside the framework of its subject matter.To present a graphic example to the reader of this volume to clearly illustrate the truth and validity of the above points, the author has used the comparison and contrast of the values, beliefs, and cultures of two very different societies in variant times and places to do so. The retrograde valuing of power and wealth placed on them by a small elite in European medieval society, resulting in limited social mobility in a primarily agrarian society, is in marked contrast to the emphasis on limited individual freedom within the framework of the rule of law as espoused by modern America. Within the latter framework, it was possible to develop a modern industrial and postindustrial community to provide individual social advancement through educational and employment opportunities as well as through the availability of quality health care. Finally, through all that has been stated above, it is worthwhile for society at large as well as the academic community to peruse through the contents of this volume in order to accomplish the above objectives.

    One whose mind is intrigued with tales of the unusual will discover them once their imagination steps through the archway leading to the 'Land of 'Philantasy'. Sculptured onto the obelisks are the titles of eight short stories, a novella and a ditty. These are not the run of the mill (so to speak) type of stories. They are what I call 'Philantasy', a coined word. They are all a touch of philosophy with the imagination of fantasy, so welcome to the Land of Philantasy.

    I am one of many people who has survived child abuse and not become an abuser or use it as an excuse for my behavior. I waited this story to come out to let other people like me to know that they are not the only out there. They are not alone; and for the ones who do turn into an abuser and killers and use the excuse that "I am this way because I was abused as a child," that is wrong. I am here to tell you that the chains can be broken. I did it, and so has other people. It's not easy, but it can be done.

    UNA HISTORIA PARA SER CONTADA. "Una historia para ser contada", es una novela basada en hechos verídicos, donde predomina el diálogo, desde los cuales lleva al lector a imágenes como sacadas de escenarios de grandes películas o series documentales de televisión. Se hacen descripciones casi exactas de hechos cotidianos con una precisión a lo "irreal de lo real". Se mueve, además, sobre contextos históricos de una nación y da pautas de los sufrimientos de una sociedad que sucumbe en el hambre y la miseria por ideas torcidas y descabelladas con la única pretensión de cerrarle el camino al género humano, por otros hombres como rectores de esta (la sociedad).En ella encontrará símbolos que señalan a un régimen que se tambalea en el "Limbo" sin nunca precipitarse al vacío y simula la limpieza corporal como medio de librarse de la carga que pesa sobre sus hombros que a este tipo de sistema conlleva, generando en "el hombre de a pie" un resentimiento y por ende el tratamiento dado a estos que, sin perder el miedo, se atreven a expresar lo que sienten, que no son más que el remedo creados por ellos mismos, dándole un carácter de opositor.Se abrirá ante sus ojos el arte de la cocina, llevadas a cabo en algunas regiones del país, devenidas en tradiciones, aumentando así su saber hacía esta bella isla que se enclava como llave del continente Americano.Súmele, el que lee, que podrá hallar pinceladas de fraternidad y amor por las cuales pueden pasar a lo largo de su existencia, como también "brochazos" de ese quehacer artístico del hombre a través del tiempo, haciendo que al final de la lectura de ella (la obra), no solo se grave en sus memorias los hechos acontecidos en el mundo moderno, sino, también, de algunas obras y autores, contribuyendo con ello a despertar la sed por el conocimiento de la cultura universal.

    To combat the epidemic of weight gain, improve cardiovascular health, increase longevity while enhancing our quality of life, it is important to develop strategies that facilitate habitual physical activity. Preventing obesity in collaboration with communities, schools, work sites, and health care professionals is the key. Through the process of coloring and reading, the understanding of food and how our bodies form fats is further illuminated. We emphasize the role of exercise as a fundamental part of staying fit and healthy. The current consensus is that three core exercises are essential: aerobic, strength building, and ¿exibility training. It is undisputed that diet and exercise promote good health, productivity, and longevity. Now is the time to start. Meta-analysis, based on various types of exercise, have identified exercises that appear necessary for optimal health, especially for the increasing number of employees in sedentary, computer-based jobs. For example, simply try using "light movement," about once per hour, to stimulate the lymphatic system and increase blood ¿ow to the legs. Simply flex the toes and move your calves up and down. Then stand up and sit down without arm support, five to ten times, repeatedly. Follow up with deep breathing. Just ensure that the lungs are filled up completely. Then expand the stomach also to capacity. Let the air out normally and without pressure. To good health! Picture here of good health

    The mythic Greek Sphinx-part lion, woman, and eagle-has endured erosion for five thousand years. She is a symbol of wisdom and mystery and my personal symbol of an invisible, toxic plague that continues to seep into Mother Earth. In ancient Greece, she was a symbol of an enigmatic death demon. If no traveler could answer her riddle, he or she was strangled. Today she represents civilization's pollution time bomb that Mother Earth may soon be unable to defuse.In Neolithic times (Stone Age), the first humans painted with ochre earth and animal blood on cave walls to capture the animal's spirit, mana. The tribe's survival depended on the hunter's kill. Mother Earth was revered. She nourished man, beast, and spirit. Through ritual offerings, humans created the necessary structure to reduce chaos and allowed them to survive and flourish.One Green Thumb and Nine Sticky Fingers is both a serious and humorous guide that highlights some of the ancient sacred rituals and cycles and will inspire both novice and expert gardeners of today. Natural cycles are the spine and theme of One Green Thumb. This book reminds my readers that to survive, modern man must live in balance with plants and animals. This book will inspire individuals and families who want to learn how to understand and grow organic vegetables and flowers, enjoy the protection and privacy of trees, and promote a more balanced lifestyle for themselves and humanity.Mother Nature's rhythmic cycles are signposts that guide the reader through mankind's eons of trial and error with her gifts: the ability to recognize wild weeds as edible herbs as well as to plant and harvest healthy organic plants. The reader learns here to follow the simplest rules of horticulture to maintain humans', animals', and insects' life cycle integrity. We can learn to re-educate ourselves to respect all creatures right to life without poisoning ourselves with toxic chemicals. With inspiration and education, today's gardeners will contribute toward a more harmonious and productive future environment for humanity.

  • - The Struggle for Knoxville and East Tennessee
    von Gregory H Blake
    29,00 €

    Two opposing generals and the people of East Tennessee met in the fall of 1863. For James Longstreet, the commander of the Confederate forces, the campaign for Knoxville and East Tennessee marked the nadir of his military career, which climaxed in December 1863, with him submitting a letter of resignation as commander of the First Corps of the Army of Northern Virginia.For Ambrose Burnside, commander of the Federal forces, the campaign demonstrated his leadership and tactical ability following his December 1862 debacle as commander of the Army of the Potomac at the Battle of Fredericksburg, Virginia.For the region of East Tennessee and Knoxville, the campaign enabled the people to reach the pinnacle they had aspired to since their settlement of the region. They had escaped economic and religious oppression in Europe, negotiated and fought with the Cherokee Indian Nation, created the State of Franklin (which was denied statehood), saw its political power vanish to Middle Tennessee, and was limited in its economic development by the region's landscape.

    Throughout our country's existence there have been those who didn't approve of our form of government. Those with other ideologies have tried to influence our governance since the beginning of our nation. Only one has succeeded on a grand scale: Throughout the twentieth century, and continuing today, a long-term plan to replace our Capitalist society has been in place and is incrementally growing stronger. By infiltrating every aspect of American interaction, as documented in the book, our enemy continues to garner more and more support of the people. You won't want to believe what you read. Many in Washington are happy about that, and most, not all public figures are reluctant to call it what it is. You need this info to decide for yourself.By promoting discontent where there was none, they have divided our nation by socioeconomics, race, ethnicity, religion, and politics. There are exaggerated issues of racism, the rich and the poor, business vs. the working class, climate change, entitlements vs. hard work, Socialism vs. Capitalism, and Conservatism vs. Liberalism. All these deceitful distractions are productive tools of our enemy that divert our attention from the master plan to fully install a new form of government that gives full control of our lives to the government.Most Americans, as well as most politicians, are too distracted by the minutiae mentioned above to see the big picture that this book details. There are no longer enough people who understand or are willing to defend the Constitution that enabled US to become the greatest nation in history while it was strictly interpreted. I fear it is too late to reverse the process now.URGENT UPDATE- email christiansoldiersofamerica@gmail.com for a free Bonus Chapter.
