YOUR SPIRIT NO ONE CAN DESTROY! Unfortunately, in many societies, rules of thought or behavior do change part of some people's spirits. And this can be detrimental to an individual's happiness and social life, especially if you're mentally ill and meet your soul mate, who is part of society, and the way your spirit was changed, even slightly, causes the loss of a potential wife! Let's say a Nobel Prize winner and professor of physics becomes too groggy from his psychiatric medications to teach effectively! I often wonder if all so-called normal minds and souls usually believe they contain some elements of mental illness, but are cunning in hiding it through the vast tricky complex and profound maze of societies like a fly flying and sliding through the spider web of society's normalities. Suppose everybody in the world had some mental illness, but those who got labeled as mentally ill were just unlucky, getting caught like a fly in a spider web. A lot of Americans mask their mental illness - probably anxiety mostly, through drinking - but a few of them are really mentally ill. They are just so good at deceiving themselves and their coworkers, friends, and spouses! But -- mental illness or no -- your spirit no one can destroy!
Frances Eaton Marks Fisher was born in Bath, Maine, on April 14, 1931. She graduated from Morse High School and later attended Wagner College on Staten Island, New York. As a registered nurse, she subsequently worked in Maine, New York, and California prior to joining the United States Air Force, where she met her husband Gene in Illinois. Two children were born of this marriage, and both grew up and joined the Navy! Frances began writing in the early 50s and continued to write until incapacitated by Alzheimer's disease. Her writings were found scribbled on scraps of paper, in boxes and books -- some readable, some not. Some of "the Words" are happy, some sad. Some will make you cry and some will make you laugh. That is the purpose of this book. Frances passed away on November 5, 2012 at the age of 81.
This book is based on real life experiences such as Problematic Systematic and stray bullets taking young lives. I have been writing for about 20 years. Thanks to the University of Georgia in Athens. Let us show some young blood how to get it done without a gun. Let us have some fun. Rappers give me a beat. But please do not push me. God bless you all.

Probably the best-known story of courage and struggle for survival in the American West is that of the Donner Party. A group of 87 ill-fated pioneers set out for California in 1846. After attempting to follow a short cut, they were trapped by a series of massive storms in the winter of 1847 near Truckee Lake in Northern California. This dramatic and horrifying tale provides a new focus on an old story -- that of the Eddy Family. William Eddy was the leader of the group of 17 who made the final attempt to get over the pass and bring back help. This ordeal included unbelievable fatigue, starvation, and cannibalism.
With startling clarity and force, this cutting-edge book details innumerable disastrous global trends, which together result in oppression of the many by the few, the 99% by the 1%. The author, an ordained minister and long-time social justice and peace activist, draws together these many "faces of death" under the rubric of exclusionary and entrenched power, exercised by a very few people for their own benefit, locking out almost everyone else. This extraordinary power is exercised by the world's elite through collusion by four powerful institutions: government (including the military), corporations, education, and media. Eisenhower's frightening warning has become actualized, on steroids. Together, this "Quabal" effectively controls almost all facets of our lives, obscenely enriching the elite while impoverishing the many. Extreme and world-wide maldistribution of wealth and power have now precipitated a breaking point. Revolution against oppression is emerging, in different forms, on a global scale. Examining the history of change movements, Ransom concludes that the world's 99% can indeed control the direction and outcome of the inevitable revolution. And he issues a surprising call for revolutionary prophetic leadership, inviting consideration of common principles upon which all peoples might begin to realize the emergence of a world of peace.
1873. When George Armstrong Custer sets out to guard Northern Pacific Railroad engineers in the Yellowstone Valley from Sitting Bull, he is looking forward to a reunion with his West Point friend and Confederate foe, Tom Rosser. Little does he know that Rosser has discovered the location of stolen gold, nor that the man who stole the gold a decade earlier is shadowing them, intent on recovering it for himself at any cost. Bristling with action, "Custer's Gold" is a work of historic fiction by award-winning author M. John Lubetkin taking the reader from bar room brawls to bordellos, from robber barons to hard fought Indian battles, all with the violence, realism and irony that typified this dynamic period of American growth. "M. John Lubetkin's novel carries the reader through the world of railroad surveyors, military escorts [and Indian fighting] in the early 1870s. But 'Custer's Gold' has a more sinister, underlying plot: recovering gold from a spectacular bank robbery. Since the larger-than-life Custer is on the scene, he naturally gets involved. Suspense about whether the gold will be unearthed, and who will get it, is maintained until the end in this historically accurate and gripping adventure. This is a great read!" -- Louise Barnett, author of "Touched by Fire: The Life, Death, and Afterlife of George Armstrong Custer"

This collection of poetry spanning five decades is a fetching together of pieces from a larger assortment. Poems included range from lyrical and free verse, to lengthy narrative and miscellaneous poems containing dialogue. Such diversity normally suggests structural influences over time; however, the author preferred not to arrange poems chronologically, rather, to observe the sum as a present experience. 'Why would a collection of poems also contain an essay? Because a poem is compact: the meticulous workings of a tiny watch. But an essay: Well, that's like the wind blowin' pages out the back of an old rumble seat. Obviously, there's something I wish to say in my elder years.' Other books by the author include: Hold Fast to Quiet Things; Delphic Particle; Menitheos, the Skeptical Savior and Unstrained Mercy. Poems have appeared in various anthologizes including Lyrical Iowa.
