The book ends on a hopeful note that the power of reason will prevail, civil discourse will be restored, and the enlightenment of the Constitution will continue to guide our nation. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: justify; font: 12.0px 'Times New Roman'}Judge Edmund B.

Set in the early 1970's, imagine five young men as members of the Central Intelligence Agency's team of top lock and safe technicians who were hand picked by the director of NSC (National Security Council) and trained to do both overt and covert operations. One op reveals an object involved in the assassination of an FBI undercover agent, the involvement of an anarchist college professor, and exposes both the directors of the CIA and FBI to catch the killer, stop the professor's disruption and prevent a National Security upheaval. From the jungles of Cambodia, to Washington DC, Indiana, Illinois, Bulgaria, and the USSR - this story takes you on a whirlwind adventure in the lives of these five team members, known only as Ozzi's Boys. G.S. Youngling was once a trained lock & safe technician within the US Government, then proceeded on to a law enforcement career in Northern Virginia, retiring as Master Police Officer- Detective. During his career he was assigned to the Drug Enforcement Administration working covertly on the Clandestine Laboratory Task Force, Vice-Narcotics, Crime Analysis and Criminal Investigations.

Currently he is living in Tucson, Arizona and volunteers with the US Forest Service for the Santa Catalina Ranger District.

This book about the disaster-conflict-environment nexus is based on empirical evidence gathered from the region of East Africa, where a series of combinations of natural disasters and armed conflict have devastated not only the political economy, but also the physical environment. Each of the chapters are self-contained research outcomes describing the core problems faced by typical subsistence farming communities and forcibly-displaced persons-- that is, refugees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs)-in five East African countries that have been living under recurring major disasters and conflicts. The book describes the role of the disaster-conflict interaction on land cover removal; how the socio-economic standing of communities in the five nations was shaped by the crises; the community's perceptions of climate change and their capacity to adapt to extreme disruptions. The final section presents a review of current environmental care practices in international aid and a set of proposed field processes and tools that can be used to mitigate environmental degradation. This section first defines potential environmental damage likely to be caused by various natural hazards, as well as those that can emerge in the process of emergency relief, recovery, or developmental efforts. Finally, it presents practical guidelines on how to entrench environmental factors in international aid programs.

I was born, Denson Wayne Jones to Denson Joseph Jones and Barbara Ann Jones of Joliet, Illinois in February 21, 1952. Joliet is a suburb of Chicago and is about 35 miles West of the city we call Chi-Town. I went to Joliet Township Schools and played football and basketball. I even played basketball at Joliet Jr. College for one year before getting drafted in the Viet Nam War in 1972. My dream was to go to the National Basketball Association (NBA) and play ball as a professional, but that dream died real quick, so I joined the Navy to get back at the Army. After a failed marriage and two children I ended up married again and wound up in an interracial relationship down in Oklahoma City. I gained two Grand kids from my second wife's side of the family and that just added on to the three from my side of the family. I went to medical school down in Oklahoma and became a Medical Assistant/Xray Tech. I studied at Oklahoma State for Nursing and Rose State for Computer Networking and worked Per-Diem for about five years doing Medical Assisting and Nurse Assisting at different Hospitals around Oklahoma. Now I am just a retired author of novels and children's fairytales and Inspirational Truthful Quotes.

Breathtaking Growing up Mystic in America & Eleven Breaths for Life I see this book as an invitation to know your life as a sacred quest. Everything, from your parents to your passions to your first love, all is given to bring you home to your Essential Self, which is already at one with the infinite, the source and birther of the universe."You will live the way you breathe," begins this part life-adventure story and part manual for becoming more conscious, more alive and more intuitive. As a portal to our True Self, the breath offers a key used by many yogis, and masters such as the Buddha and Jesus, mystics and just plain folk. Breath is tied to our feelings and to our deepest heart nature. Yet, as a yoga teacher, I quickly learned, that most people have breathing problems; problems which lead to imbalance in various systems including heart, lungs, and emotions. My first master of Breath was Horse. Horse took me into rivers and up mountains, always saying, hold on, let go of fear, I have you. Horse taught me about fear as I felt him breathe deeply. It didn't last for as I grew I also learned how to hold my breath so as not to feel my anger and resentment. I held it and became invisible, which felt like a great magic trick. As I saw friends and family die, I wanted a map of meaning and the secrets of life and death. My next master showed me how to fall off Horse and then left to find God. Then there was Dadiji, an Indian miracle man. Jeshua Ben Joseph I first met looking out from a poster. He never stopped whispering to me to stop and listen, listen within.After a volcano, a car crash and a flood, I knew this world was not safe. I began to follow the breath and become the breath. In this way I came to know a way of pure Presence. Finally, the breath of life ignites the heart, where all arises. "Elizabeth Bunker's Breathtaking is a deep dive into the science-based, practical and spiritual dimensions of the breath. Drawing on her experience as a long-time yoga teacher and student of life, she lays out a practice for delving into the breath's power and using that power to live a more conscious life. Both manual and spiritual memoir, Ms. Bunker invites us to explore what it means to be both human and awake." -Mara Bright, author of The Constant Heart, and Writing CoachElizabeth began sharing Yoga and the breath thirty-three years ago. A Vassar College graduate with an MFA in writing, she created the Harvard University Yoga Program in 1982 and lives with her husband David, George the mule and two ponies, in the hills of New Hampshire. One thing to remember? The cosmos is not serious! And, "Breath is the body of God." - Sufi wisdom.

]Sharktooth, Massachusetts is a seaside resort town situated on the elbow to Cape Cod. Although no stranger to eccentrics, the year-rounders in this tight little town never find it in their hearts to accept as one of their own, pretentious, English-accented, Pemberton Poindexter Plushbottom, aka Triple P. One might have expected the fact that on several occasions tourists were known to have mistaken Triple P for Teddy Roosevelt would count for something. So what if when making this observation these same tourists were suspected of being under the influence of a controlled substance? Instead of gaining the respect he deserves, Triple P is generally regarded as a pompous ass. Of no help is the fact that his mother, Agnes Pinkney Plushbottom, is a squeaky-voiced, prune-faced former Vegas pole dancer. Nor that Triple P was conceived during a debauched one night stand with a travelling salesman from Cottonwood Falls, Kansas-a travelling salesman that from the trunk of his car peddled his "One-Look-And-You're-Hooked" line of French pantyhose to all comers. For twenty odd years, Lord and Lady Plushbottom, as the year-rounders disparagingly refer to Triple P and his mother, have occupied the decaying North Sharktooth estate Lady Pinkerton inherited from a rich Boston uncle. Behind their walled enclosure, Triple P spends his days and nights searching for the shortest route to fame and fortune, until, at last, he hits upon the idea of a theme park featuring a great white shark. Convinced that a theme park is completely out of character for a small New England town founded in 1654, the year-rounders are publicly repulsed by the idea. Nor have Triple P's local fundraising efforts produced any concrete results. The only available source of financing for his grandiose scheme turns out to be Guido Bonaccorso, a pawnbroker and made member of the Mafia from the North End of Boston, thus, setting Triple P on a collision course with the Feds and the year-rounders. And therein lies the tale.

His words trailed off in the distance as I galloped down the road. Tirrith's life has taken a huge turn when he finds out his life is saved by being turned into a vampire. His story continues as he builds a castle, gains a Kingdom, and confronts his vile, evil father. Tirrith's look on life is an inspiration to us all.

On the surface navigating relationships is like swimming through an ocean current that shifts in the way that emotions do, at least for me anyway. Traversing through ever-turbulent waters I ask myself, "how do I keep steady when the waves of broken relationships crash against me constantly?" As a three-time loser, I fight to remain focused, but life lay upon me like a broken mountain. I need to stand unmovable remembering that the promises given must be the promises kept. What should I do with my fireflies? Should I chase after them or stand and fight for something that is long gone? Love is ever fleeting like a thing of the past and chasing after a moving target has me winded. Tell me, should I leave or should I stay? This is the brutality of my situation.
