From "Honor, Value and Integrity" Words-That-Empower, Volume VIII. Introductory contribution By Jim Namaste, Ph.D. Why Empower Puzzles Are Important When you first see one of the empower puzzles you may overlook its significance. Some people believe that wordsearch puzzles are a "waste of time." [If you think that, please read on, because you may be surprised what recent brain scan research has shown.] In my case I knew nothing about wordsearch puzzles and the first few times I saw Kate Ellis' puzzles they didn't catch my attention. Like most everybody else, I have done crossword puzzles and that is the only (wrong) association I made. Then I saw some of the different figures Kate created, as well as one or two of the colored patterns, and I became curious. When I looked into them further I realized that indeed, there was power in Kate's puzzles, a power that anyone can unleash to benefit them-selves and others. Empower Puzzles and Brain Scan Research Professor Phillips initiated the study because she was interested in learning more about distractibility, attention and focus. She wanted to learn what happens in the brain when people read more leisurely versus when they are asked to pay more attention. Distractibility has been a theme that occurs often in Jane Austen's novels. The preliminary results were unexpected to say the least. As Ms. Phillips stated, "What's been taking us by surprise in our early data analysis is how much the whole brain - global activations across a number of different regions - seems to be transforming and shifting between the pleasure and the close reading." Phillips said she expected to see some differences in the areas of the brain that regulate attention because that was the primary difference relating to casual and concentrated reading.

Tragic events from the past link Carmel with new-kid-on-the-block DI Joe Plantagenet, who, with his new boss, DCI Emily Thwaite, faces the unenviable task of identifying the killer before he claims another victim. The victims appear to have nothing in common but the manner of their deaths, but as Joe's investigations lead him to a pub with a sinister history, he is forced to consider that the case may have occult connections. Then Carmel becomes aware of a malevolent presence in her new flat and, when she starts to receive mysterious threats, it is Joe she turns to first.

Teenager Lewis Hoxworthy discovers a disturbing painting in a medieval barn; a discovery which excites archaeologist Neil Watson who is excavating an ancient manor house nearby. But when former rock star Jonny Shellmer is found shot through the head in Lewis's father's field and Lewis himself goes missing after contacting a man on the internet, Detective Inspector Wesley Peterson and his boss, Gerry Heffernan face one of their most intriguing cases yet. It seems that the Devon village of Derenham is not only full of resident celebrities seeking the rural idyll, but full of secrets, ancient and modern. Lewis's distraught parents seem to have something to hide. Then the mysterious owner of a new age shop is silenced before she can reveal what she knows about Jonny Shellmer. Is Jonny's death linked to Lewis's disappearance? And does Jonny's best known song, 'Angel' contain a clue? As Neil Watson uncovers the story of Derenham's medieval past, it becomes clear that the Derenham Doom - a painted portrayal of hell and judgement more than half a millennium old - holds the key to the mystery. And as events reach a terrifying climax, Wesley Peterson has to act swiftly if he is to save a young life.

An excavation at the lost gardens of Earlsacre Hall is called to a halt when a skeleton is discovered under a 300 year old stone plinth, a corpse that seems to have been buried alive. But DS Wesley Peterson has little time to indulge in his hobby of archaeology. He has a more recent murder case to solve. A man has been found stabbed to death in a caravan at a popular holiday park and the only clue to his identity is a newspaper cutting about the restoration of Earlsacre. Does local solicitor Brian Willerby have the answer? He seems eager to talk to Wesley but before he can reveal his secret he is found dead during a 'friendly' game of village cricket, apparently struck by a cricket ball several times with some force. If Wesley is looking for a demon bowler this appears to let out most of the village side. But what is it about Earlsacre Hall that leads people to murder?

Shipbourne, Vicar of Belsham, during the course of a robbery in 1991, is innocent.

Meanwhile archaelologist Neil Watson is excavating as site in Pest Field near Belsham church.

But, more disturbing, is the discovery that the grave is home to a more recent resident...
