    The Fall of an Angel tells about how the United States justice department uses the charge of conspiracy to put anyone they want into federal prison without any physical evidence at all. The United States is the only country in the world that charges its citizens with conspiracy. This book is a true story that illustrates how the government can breach plea agreements and get away with it. Billy Leland plead guilty, entering a plea agreement with the federal prosecutor. The plea agreement stated that the government would give Billy a ten-year prison sentence and leave his son alone. But when he got to the sentencing phase the judge sentenced Billy to a term of twenty-one years and five years of probation. Billy agreed to plead guilty to some crimes that he didn't commit because the prosecutor told Billy that if he didn't plead guilty to everything in the indictment that he was going to arrest Billy's twenty-two-year-old son. This book illustrates how the federal justice system coerces defendants into guilty pleas. About 97 percent of the federal defendants plead guilty because of this reason. Out of the 3 percent of the defendants that go to trial, only 1 percent win their cases. The Fall of an Angel will open your eyes to the federal justice system.

    "e;What, Auntie, you promised you would stop with that stuff. Really!"e; Caroline said. "e;Oh, Caroline, relax, what are they going to do. I am eighty-four years old, and more than likely with my health, I'll only live another year or two, so why worry about it? The risk is not that great. Plus, you know we live in the wild, wild, Midwest, and slightly South. We have a reputation to uphold that we can make it no matter what! And honestly, who can live on social security? And you know those Wall Street thieves stole my savings! So I sell a little fruity tea and weed to keep dinner on the table. What's the big deal?"e; Star said with a crooked smile and hearty laugh. Betty looked over at Caroline, who rolled her eyes. Star pulled up in front of the fruity tea shack and they all got out to go in. Betty whistled. "e;Wow, this is a big shack. I had no idea it was an actual barn back here,"e; she said. Star nodded. "e;Girls, you are welcome to look inside, but I do appreciate discretion with what you will see inside. Not a word!"e; she said with big eyes and a soft voice. "e;Also, the back wall caved in a little from the tornado, so don't go to close to it,"e; Star said. Caroline and Betty nodded and felt nervous. They knew anything could be inside.

    The recent reports of the twenty Americans in Cuba, in China too, who have suffered the effects of temporary concussions from audio and microwave signals reminds me of the telepathic hit I received in the 1960s. I've thus drawn the following conclusions:1.) Telepathic controls are actually telekinetic controls and can influence cellular matter such as the brain. 2.) These controls are painful in the same manner as a concussion and can control behavior. All this material is to be regarded as science fiction; there's no evidence of telepathy or telekinesis

    Poetry is a sacred pledge and a revolt against the reactionary summons of history and words commingled with life's immense thunderstorms reverberating resistance, love, and commitment toward oppressed people and their sufferings in order to generate an ongoing critical and democratic dialogue as a dialectical hymn in terms of thought as a discourse to infect and liberate historical mind. The destiny of art in our times is none other than the progress of the consciousness of freedom, and poetry transmits that feeling. It connects and unifies humanity to attain its highest ideals and to challenge the conventional wisdom of aesthetics and art for art's sake. Life is a Moby Dick, and we the poets and artists are Captain Ahab of history. Poetry is a voyage, a journey, and most wonderful adventure for imagination. It is an epic of hunting and exploring ideas with emotional sincerity, simplicity, and honesty in the footsteps of all great and glorious creative Milky Ways. Poetry is like mining our selves and digging our hearts and to extract all the weird perspectives and feelings for the desired materials that we need to discharge and mix with music of colorful and budding futuristic words, words as a passionate desire for change and independence, words driven from the blooming valleys of imagination, words like mustard seeds and birds of heavenly grace, beauty, and peace as a people's pledge against the brutality, ignorance, and all forms of oppression.

If only his chair could talk, it would share his knowledge of what has become a fading art, a lost profession, a forgotten place where strangers felt like friends.

    Matthew, modestly insightful, and reserved, is a twenty-three-year-old dental student living in Boston. After waking up in a hospital bed to see his parents and sister, he learns that he has survived a car accident, having been hit by a drunk driver. Experiencing symptoms from his concussion, he follows the orders of his doctor and remains out of classes. Quickly, in addition to the physical pain, he discovers that he has no memory of the crash or the time leading up to it. In the following two weeks, the pain in Matthew's stomach and head grows worse. Regarding his lack of memory from before the crash, curiosity turns to frustration, which turns to anger, which turns to obsession. As his condition worsens, Matt regrettably touches his family with his own physical and psychological distress, tainting his relationships with them. Through a series of vivid flashbacks interwoven throughout the ongoing plot, a bizarre picture of Matthew's life becomes slowly uncovered. Throughout his strange journey to physical and mental recovery, Matthew questions the nature of his existence, and the suffering inherent to life, while trying to put the broken pieces of his memory back together. As the story carries on, the reader is dragged down with Matthew into the darkness and confusion of his own damaged mind. The semi-chronological plot advances, and holes in the story become filled, revealing a more complex story than initially portrayed. The narrative of Matthew and his family in the weeks following the crash continues to develop in a confusing way until the final scenes, when all becomes clear regarding Matthew's life and the sentiment of the work as a whole.

    This book has a different flavor than my last two books. This book is a journey I took with my dad when he was diagnosed with cancer. It is a "e;hands on"e; "e;how to"e; book. It deals with the reality of praying for a miracle and then not receiving the miracle. I find this story relates to so many people. I am asked to speak at many events sharing my experience on how to find peace and comfort, even when you don't receive the miracle you prayed for.

    If you are a high school basketball coach, you are probably just like me. Most of my life I attended clinic after clinic listening to famous college coaches tell me about their programs. I purchased books and read as many philosophies as a young man could read. I watched so many hours of video. I knew offense and defense as good as any coach in my field but wasn't really getting the results I wanted. But then I realized my approach was totally wrong. I don't have the talent pool the college coaches have at all. Most of my players were home grown ordinary athletes straight from my own elementary schools. That's when I began to streamline my own personalized program. My program would fit my needs and the needs of my student athletes. It would not only make me happy, but it would keep me excited about the game of basketball. So, what did I do? I developed a book that could help the ordinary coach find his own philosophy. Inside you will find snippets that will not only keep you enthused about the game, but it will remind you of what is important in the day to day operations of your own program. Look inside and remind yourself why you love the great game of basketball.

    I love watching Fox News, NCIS, Rush Limbaugh, and cops. I receive lots of junk mail. I picked this title because we need a good woman for president, not Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren. I thought it would be nice to have a Madam President for the people, not against the people, with a strong mind, is intelligent, and has a great sense of humor as displayed in the book. Denise James fits all categories. She knows when to be strong, willing to take chances; she is sensitive, knows when to back off, and accepts criticism of her decisions. It takes a special person to do what she has accomplished as president. After delivering four babies and maintaining the position of president of the United States, that takes courage beyond the normal person. A woman may not ever make president. If she does, she has to be like Denise James, or she is not worth a damn. As you have read, I have trouble writing English. Denise speaks several foreign languages, plus English.

As a child he was underweight, was bullied in school, survived the wrath of an abusive father and stepfather but managed to meet the rigors required to become a firefighter. At each stage of his life he had to adjust to many circumstances, building himself from the ground up. In June 2007 the Charleston Fire Department (South Carolina) suffered the largest loss of life since the events on 9/11 when nine firefighters perished battling a fire at the Sofa Super Store. James had read the various reports written after the fire, recognizing the need for better training in Charleston. His successful career with Fairfax County Fire and Rescue gave him the necessary skills; education and confidence to apply for and accept the position of Chief of Training for the City of Charleston Fire Department. Little did he know his efforts to bring the Charleston Fire Department to nationally recognized training standards would be resisted at all levels and never imagined the efforts Charleston personnel would take to discredit him. Even with the resistance, James was able to bring the Charleston Fire Department training to nationally recognized standards and meet many of the mandates in the various reports, building it From the Ground Up.

    It may prove to be of some interest to Americans across the country to gain some insight into the complexities of living near the nation's capital. Every day, over three hundred thousand people commute from the suburbs of Washington, DC, to their jobs in the District or in Northern Virginia. The resulting traffic congestion is typical of any large city. The commuting methodology is not. To alleviate traffic, high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes are designated (HOV-3 for a total of three in the car, the driver picks up two slugs) to encourage commuters to leave their cars, ride with someone else, and gain the advantage of a less heavily traveled road. This is a diary of one of these slug pickup sites. This microcosm of society shows the mind-set of the worker bees in our nation's capital as they arrive at work. The game is played out with regularity. The players become familiar, yet nameless characters. They are the slugs of Tackett's Mill.
