In a small Texas town, the elderly residents of a sixty-two-plus active apartment complex enjoy affordable rent, a daily continental breakfast buffet, and a Wednesday evening happy hour. While the complex's brochure sells a paradise atmosphere, in reality it feels more like a satire. While some of the residents rebel against the strict rules such as no smoking, no burning candles in the apartments, no children in the gym area, and more, others adjust and are considerate of others. As the retirees go about their days, one trips and falls unconscious while on his way to buy beer. When a deputy stops to help, the resident only wants to know if his beer bottle is broken. A female resident in her prime at ninety years dresses up in her finest to kiss random older male residents on the cheek. When the activities director approaches her about the kissing, she plants one right on his lips. As prospective residents are solicited and tour the facility, the retirees, always up for a new adventure, must endure unthinkable occurrences and a conclusion no one saw coming. Paradise 62 follows the lives of the residents of a Texas retirement apartment complex as they navigate through the challenges and fun that a new adventure brings.

Set during the Bosnian Civil War in the 1990's, Sarajevo tells the story of two different characters from Sarajevo whose lives and families are torn apart because of the horrors of war. Both characters call Sarajevo home; yet they find themselves displaced from Sarajevo by the war, and forced to take sides. Sonja, a young Serbian woman from Sarajevo, is a former ballerina now turned militia sniper whose deadly aim is matched only by her precision as a ballerina. Faruk, a Muslim Bosnian and former professional ballet dancer from Sarajevo, whose family is crushed by the events of history and whose form of artistic protest calls to Sonja in ways she cannot quite balance with her current choice to join the fight. Both characters journey to America in the most surprising way, only to return to Sarajevo at the most unlikely of times, in the midst of war. Sarajevo narrates the loss of home and identity, but also the triumphant return of human dignity that can only be found through free artistic expression in the midst of great suffering. Gulias mixes dark humor with direct description of tragic events to weave a narrative about a people and a city torn apart by war but brought back together by creativity, free expression, and humility.

You are cordially invited to participate in my absurd but heartfelt attempt to help save this nation from corruption, stupidity, and evil beings of one sort or another. No Common Sense is a genre-bending political satire-based update of Founding Father Thomas Paine's original Common Sense. An argument and a declaration for independence and freedom from a totalitarian king. Using my fake but funny original concept, a reality fairytale about Donald Trump and the big bad government, I try to enlighten and humor my readers about the need to stand up to a terminally corrupt and authoritarian federal government. Our unique freedoms and rights as American citizens are in danger. Like the classic Common Sense, No Common Sense is concise, around 34,000 words, and aspires to motivate Americans as the original did in 1776. A couple hundred million people either love or love to hate Donald Trump, and would be interested in this book. Whether you love or hate him, he is currently being piled on by our out-of-control federal government. He has been persecuted, harassed, and setup for the past eight years. If an ex-president of the United States and current front-runner for a second term can be targeted for prosecution, then who is safe? He has been spied on, fraudulently setup numerous times, had his property raided, family and associates, including his attorneys, harassed, and threatened. Trump is now uniquely charged with crimes no one else has ever been charged with. He is eligible for well over 700 years in prison, if convicted. Imagine what the government could do to any one of us.

When students are afraid, they cannot learn. In "Fearless Classrooms," Dr. Douglas Reeves explains how teachers and school administrators can provide psychological safety for every student and staff member. In a fearless classroom, students can make mistakes and learn from those mistakes without being afraid of embarrassment and humiliation. Rather than toxic practices such as evaluating students based on mistakes made months in the past, fearless classrooms evaluate students based on their performance at the time the grade is awarded. Every mistake is not a disgrace, but an opportunity to learn. "Fearless Classrooms" provides a guide for every educator and school leader to create a safe environment for every student to learn and grow both intellectually and emotionally.

"I tip my hat," an often repeated phrase of Cathy Brooks' grandfather, James Brooks, was the inspiration for this military pictorial featuring the descendants of Cathy's grandfather and other family members. The book merges her love for her family with photographs that showcase a family heavily invested in the military. Some of the most spectacular documents include the military and early voting records of Cathy's great-great-grandfather Private David Singleton who served during the American Civil War from 1863-1865 in Company D of the 51st U.S. Colored Infantry from Mississippi. I Tip My Hat: A Granddaughter Reminisces with its six generations of photos and documents cements the family's legacy for generations to come, hopefully opening the door to more portals of history.

This is a book that attempts to show an atheist's perspective on religions and social issues. Since believers rarely paint atheists in a favorable light, it is hoped the reader will gain insights into modern atheism, and make up their own minds. Just as it would be foolish to only take an atheist's view on religious matters, it would be equally unfair to only listen to the believer's presentation of atheism. Being able to hear both sides of an issue is essential for reasonable understanding. In this book I address a wide variety of topics and scenarios, and present my views on them, and in particular offer critiques on religious belief. It seems to me, many of the issues threatening our freedoms and quality of life derive from very poor critical thinking skills, unquestioning acceptance of religious beliefs and sacred cows, religious or not. Some essays are personal, most are not; all hope the reader will be open minded and willing to think critically. While not an academic textbook, if the reader is really interested in learning about atheism, and on why atheists think religions are deeply flawed and dangerous, or if they would like to test their beliefs against the yardsticks I offer, then I think they will find the material interesting, and hopefully, thought provoking.
