There is no time like the present unless the present is the future. Knowing that the future of Christianity may well be aligned with the future of freedom and democracy, Jensen and Amanda Sterling gather together friends and family in hopes of finding a solution to not only the world's troubles but their own dilemma. In this final chapter of this science fictional prophecy, it is truly a race against time, and no one knows how much they actually have. Realizing that the walls are quickly closing in around them as a result of a series of tragic events clearly orchestrated by the ruling class and their allied stooges, goons and cronies, the Sterlings have no choice but to seek refuge and asylum despite not even knowing where either can be found. Their hope rests squarely on their faith in God. Despite knowing the consequences, they must keep from losing sight of the reason they were entrusted with the most powerful technological tool ever devised by any human being. The question is, can they save humanity from itself? And along with that is whether or not humanity is even worth saving or has the world become a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah? Those are questions that no one but God knows the answer to.

The problem is, who will believe them? With the western world's ruling class poised to enact its "final solution" in an effort to stave off the effects their fictitious "Global Tilt" in the name of humanity, the Sterlings begin their race against time and learn quickly that it is not their ally but their adversary In the second installment of this science fiction thriller, Amanda and Jensen must find sanctuary in world that is far from friendly. With the eyes of ruling class stooges, goons and moles everywhere, their need to escape "freedom" leads to the commencement of their race against time. But where will they go?

Things that may be okay today may not be okay tomorrow. That's what political correctness is all about. Unfairly judges those from different times using the standards they have created. By contrast, God's standards never change nor does his measuring stick. Political correctness is based on the idea that imperfect people can legislate perfection.In the face of what appears to be systemic secularism, at no time in the modern world has there been a greater need for the word of God. Written to inspire and entertain, the message between these covers is one of truth and freedom. But most importantly, it is a book about faith.There is no love greater than God's love.When things seem the most hopeless, we all seek the comradery of others who feel the way we feel and believe what we believe. "God's Not Politically Correct... He's Just Correct.", looks at various facets spiritual life today and the threats against it through eyes of a commoner. The thoughts expressed within are not only poignant but logical, and the message is one of optimism and hope as well as a love of God. The writings are perspectives on life and faith. The goal is that of letting you know you're not alone. While Satan hopes to divide, only God wishes to unite.

What can anyone say about the Institution For Male Enlightenment and Sensitivity Inclusive Studies that has not already been said? As such, we won't say anything more than just the Institution was established during a time of need to assist those who are in need of assistance in finding their own need for assistance. We think that says it all. Our mission statement is very simple... Anything for a buck. We think that says it all. That said, this edition of their ongoing series of famous proverbs, axioms, sayings, expressions and quotes that no one has ever admitted to or said publicly (At least to the best of their knowledge... Which doesn't extend very far.) is meant to provide you with something better to read in the bathroom than the label on the air freshener or the wrapper on the toilet paper. It is also meant to give you quotable quotes and memorable expressions you can utilize in the company of others to make them believe you may actually be saying something substantive when in reality you are saying nothing of any consequence. It isn't what you say but how you say it that matters.

Born of humble roots to working class parents and raised in a section of Atlanta, Georgia, referred to as "Cabbagetown" until the age of six, Tommy Roe grew up in the West End and rose to make history in the world of popular music. Starting out as one of a host of southern Rockabilly artists in 1962, by decade's end, he had attained even greater fame in Hollywood by creating a genre of his own.However, don't think for one minute that the journey from his modest upbringing to the glitz and glamour of Tinseltown was an easy one. It was anything but that. His story shadows a period in American history that was filled with tumult and division. From the blind society of his youth led by voices on the radio to one filled with vivid, color imagery broadcast each evening on the nightly news from the jungles of Southeast Asia in the 1960s, Tommy witnessed some of the most significant changes in his country's history and culture. In no place were those changes more evident or more clearly on display than in the music of the day. Many in the industry changed directions and altered their course choosing to use their music to convey a message of anger and divisiveness, centered mainly on events taking place on the far side of the Pacific Ocean and enhanced by an unhealthy use of assorted narcotics. By contrast, Tommy shifted gears musically as well, but he did so to combat a different sort of invasion force. His focus was on the one that had made its way across the Atlantic. And so as "hippies" began to congregate in San Francisco's Haight/Ashbury speaking openly about revolution while "tripping out" and British songsmiths continued to deepen their foothold on the Billboard charts, spring breakers hit the beaches of Florida in 1966. When they did, they embraced a new sound that was already there making waves. However, not everyone was happy with the tide that came ashore. Some in the media were not as receptive as Tommy's fans were to the new genre he created. They quickly began voicing their disapproval and dismay by malevolently labeling Tommy Roe, "The King of Bubblegum". Despite the malicious coronation, as the decade of the 60s came to a close and the 1970s began, Tommy was still riding high atop the charts. However, in the fall of 1972, he learned an important lesson about human rights. He stood by his principles and beliefs and made a right turn on a one-way street in Hollywood that went only to the left. "Some of the most closed-minded people I've ever met are those who are celebrated for being open-minded... Those who tell us not to have labels for anyone seem to have labels for everyone... The entertainment industry is a closed shop. Don't let anyone tell you differently!"No matter what some may think of his choices, his records speak for themselves. With more than 30 million records sold including 47 Top 40 singles worldwide, six of which making the Top 10 in the U.S., and two, "Sheila" in 1962 and 1969's smash "Dizzy" topping the Billboard charts, Tommy was one of the true hit makers of his time. That was not something others like the Beatles or even Elvis Presley failed to notice and respect. Yes, they, too, are part of Tommy's story. Though filled with an endless supply of down-home humor and ironic satire, in this candid and heartfelt autobiography, Tommy shoots straight from the hip. He talks openly about not only his own life and his love of his country but also lends a unique, historical perspective on his years and to events inside and outside of music. He pulls no punches and tells it like it really was and in many cases still is. This is not only the story of a life, but also a story that many inside the entertainment industry would prefer nobody ever hears. This isn't just his story... It's history!

Soooo Funny!!! I had tears in my eyes as I was reading it.Don Jamieson, VH1's That Metal Show Well, if he laughed so hard that he cried reading the first edition, he'll surely have a stroke reading the "Hurricane Edition"! Since no life is ever truly over until it's over, I have decided to update my life's story. Actually, I've done more than update the story. I've given it a complete makeover. No, the story hasn't changed, and yet I doubt any of you who have read the original edition will even believe you are reading the same book!With the help of my amazing co-writer, Michael Robert Krikorian, and some of the people who were part of helping the Scorpions not only make music but make history like the legendary producer, Dieter Dierks, and manager extraordinaire, David Krebs, lending their deep insight to the history and backstories behind the albums, tours, and general comings and goings of the band, there is so much more here for all of you to enjoy. This book is truly the complete history of the greatest Rock and Roll band ever to come from Germany. From the early years when they couldn't get more than $4000.00 dollars from RCA to produce an album through what I call the "Golden Years", the whole story is here. I've also added many more stories and anecdotes from the road as well as information about my life since the release of the first edition. But there is also a very special bonus with this edition... In a time when the world is focused on ridiculous things that have all been classified under the heading "political correctness", I decided that I would help out those who are having a difficult time adapting to this new "enlightened" way of dictating... I mean, thinking. And so I've included a comprehensive guide to sensitivity - The Male Sensitivity Test. For you men, it will surely assist you in adjusting your behavior. And ladies, don't worry, you haven't been forgotten as it will most certainly give you a lot of "That's right, Honey..." moments. Take it with someone you love! If you dare... All in all, it is literally twice the length, five times as informative, and at least 10 times as much "fun" as the first edition. In a time when so much of what we're allowed to enjoy is being controlled and manipulated, laughter is still the best medicine. My hope is that this story will cure all that ails you. A smile is the greatest gift we can give to anyone. This edition will truly "Rock You Like A Hurricane"!

This is the second book of faith from Michael Robert Krikorian focuses on the battle between profits and prophets. In the world of today, there is a belief that more is better, and yet, what seems to be forgotten is God created a perfect world. As such, He gave us all we ever needed. And yet, still we crave and desire more. So the question comes down to whether the supposed technological advancements through history came from God or the demonic intervention of Satan. The purpose of this book is to explore our world and ask some very serious questions about why things are the way they are. If things in this world are broken, who broke them? And then are imperfect people capable of properly making the needed repairs or will we just cause more damage? With a focus on God's word and His clues about what is right and how that compares to what may well be our human rights, this book is meant to induce thoughts and considerations not condemnations.

"It's better we don't talk. We'll just say things we'll regret." Those 11 echoing words of rejection haunted Jennifer Banks for more than 30 years. Her salve of materialism and sexual promiscuity opened the door to Satan who happily took possession of her soul. Jennifer knew what had to be done. It was all her fault. She had no choice but to right the wrong and free the receiver of her rebuff from the evil clutches of a wicked and tyrannical blackmailer. Only by the most extreme measures of exorcism did she believe she could be released from the deadly grip of Beelzebub. She had everything planned perfectly. It was foolproof. She expected it to be considered nothing more than a tragic accident. But what she didn't expect was who would be assigned to investigate the case. In a story of love, romance, sex and rock and roll, Inspector Armen Sarkisian of the San Francisco Police Department wages a battle against politics, perceptions and police hierarchy in an effort to unravel the truth behind the mysterious death of rock star Johnny Diehl's wife. "There is more to every story that the dead don't have a chance to tell. It's my job to tell their story." Such is at the core of the wisdom of the man known as Shark.

"Sooo Funny!!! I had tears in my eyes as I was reading!" says of Don Jamieson, VH1's "That Metal Show".Herman Rarebell is back! As a result of many requests from fans all over the world, Herman returns to take the world by storm with a "Hurricane Edition" of his popular autobiography "And Speaking of Scorpions...". Laced with more stories about the band and countless contributions from people on the inside like Scorpions Producer Dieter Dierks and their Manager David Krebs, to name but a few, this edition brings out more of the story and more of the fun that left many in tears as they read the original version. This is a must have for any true fan of the band or just someone who needs to smile and laugh. Even if you have the original, you don't have the whole story. As Herman describes it, "It's like reading a completely different book!" Throughout this edition, Herman doesn't hold back. Coupled with his incredible co-writer, Michael Robert Krikorian, Herman takes on such sacred cows as political correctness, sexuality, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and, of course, global warming which Herman refers to as the greatest scam ever perpetrated against mankind. The stories and laughs are unending. The unique approach to storytelling will leave all of you feeling as if you just spent an evening in a Bavaria pub as Herman tells you the story of his life. No one person made the Scorpions... And so Herman tells his story not only through his own eyes but also through the eyes of others who were there. At times, he takes a dose of medicine, and yet in the end, the fans are the real winners. However, as an added treat, Herman has included the Male Sensitivity Test! What is this? Well, you will have to read to find out, but rest assured there won't be a dry eye in the house when you're finished! For the men, it may provide insight...

Take it with someone you love.Ultimately, what you have within these covers is a complete and thorough telling of a life's story. A life's story isn't a chronicle of events... It is the spirit of a life that matters.

If your best friend tells you he's broadminded, and you respond, "I think about chicks a lot, too.", chances are, you're not sensitive. What can anyone say about the Institution For Male Enlightenment and Sensitivity Inclusive Studies that has not already been said? As such, we won't say anything more than just the Institution was established during a time of need to assist those who are in need of assistance in addressing their own need for assistance. The Ultimate Male Sensitivity Test has been created by the Institute with an eye toward helping men better understand their bohemian and, at times, primeval beliefs and behaviors. Each question, statement or prose has been personally selected by a panel experts made up of not only the Institute's crack staff but also some individuals who are not on drugs. The goal has been from the outset to present a year of focus on that most important of areas for men... Sensitivity. 366 days of enlightenment! Each day will offer more insight into the male psyche than has ever been offered before! Will you boldly go where no man has gone before? Do you have the courage to find out the truth? The Ultimate Male Sensitivity Test will afford not only men an opportunity for self-discovery but will also give the women who love them a great many, "That's right, Honey..." moments. That, by itself, is more than worth the price of this brilliant examination of sensitivity.
