Margarita tells us, "The sweetest hours of my life have been the ones I spent taking care of my three children: Noel, Luis, and Maria. My greatest pleasure was always having them clean and happy, and their greatest joy for them was to listen to my stories every night, so every day my imagination had to create a new story to please him."This book collects some of the stories that the author was able to write down at night--after her children fell asleep--with the intention that these children's stories could be read to other children at bedtime.

TeaserHave you ever wanted to read The King James Version of the Holy Bible but found it too confusing? I have. And during those times, I would give up and put my Bible away. I even tried reading different versions of the Bible like the NIV. I became even more confused because different bibles have different vocabularies and styles. Later I decided that I would read the Bible according to the way that would make me and my sisters understand it after our mother passed away. In reading to make us understand, I found the key to unlock many of the meanings in the Bible. First, I decided to read one Bible: The King James Version of the Holy Bible. I summarized each book into its major lesson: then, I broke each chapter of that book into smaller bits and pieces, sticking to the rules of constructing an English composition paragraph. But instead of using transitions to guide the reader from one idea to the next one, I used bullets for developing each idea. Also, during the summaries of each book and its chapters, I paid closed attention to the English literary elements, which I refer to as the 5 w's (who, what, when, where, and why) and the use of figurative language. These writing processes come to you automatically when you read all texts. Now, I have given you the keys to read more deliberately with the purpose to understand and fully engage with this text and many more.

There are many books covering the rules of golf but very little written on how to be a golf referee (rules official). Most people do not realize that almost all golf referees are volunteers. Sure many of them get lunch or breakfast covered while at a tournament. But very few actually get paid. The comradery and passion for the game of golf are what inspires most golf enthusiasts to begin an exploration of the rules. From there, many want to help with golf tournaments. There is very little guidance other than word of mouth on how to become involved or what golf referees do. Some seem to think that golf referees hang out in the woods and race out in a golf cart to tell a player they incurred a penalty. But on the contrary, we try to help players avoid penalties and be there for them when they have questions to insure they play according to the rules. We also help set up the course (set the tees, mark the course, and choose hole locations) and set up the tournament (notice to players, local rules, starting times, and many other administrative duties). We hope this book provides a different side of golf that might inspire you to become a golf referee.

A little chicken wants to do whatever is necessary to fit in, when all he really needs to do is be himself in order to be happy.

This is a true story of a man who has spent most of his life in prison due to an unjust system and the struggles and hardships he has faced as a result. Our system is broken, and his story shows you how life changes.

It is better to attempt and fail than not attempt at all. Change is possible. People are so used to being told what they can't do, and they begin believing it and don't attempt to do. People need motivation, inspiration, and encouragement. Who better to give this to them than someone who has walked a mile in their shoes.This is what my story is for.

Long ago in an ancient land, a group of nomadic people, without a land to call their own, wished to gain passage through a land of bellicose nations known throughout history as the Moabites and Amorites. To the very unfortunate peoples who happened upon the borders of these barbaric nations, they would ultimately be cut off in battles waged against them, until one dreadful day. Emissaries were dispatched in the hopes of obtaining permission to pass through their land, but instead war broke out and brought an end to those antagonistic nations.The battle was fought on the East Side of the Amon River, in what is now the land of Jordan. Both the Moabites and the Amorites were no match for the nomads, who had endured living in the wilderness and surrounding mountains for almost half-century. Those nomadic people also had possession of a very powerful book, in which all of their victories were recorded. The year in which the battle against the Moabites and Amorites was fought is recorded as 1290 BCE.It is said that the book was given to them from on high, and during battles their leader would simply hold the book up toward heaven, and celestial beings would destroy their enemies. It then became known throughout all the surrounding lands and nations that their God was a powerful being who fought on their behalf.As centuries passed, the use of the book became extinct, and as a result, a high priest set out to hide the book in various parts of the world, so that no one person or nation could harness its power to be used against humanity. In the event that the book was ever needed, the high priest left clues and codes that, once deciphered, would lead to the various hiding places of each part of the book.The world is now facing an enemy that has not been seen since times of old--an enemy far more sinister than can be imagined by the human mind. Now an epic world battle is nearing, and without the book, all will be lost.This story starts simply. It begins with the search for:The Book of the Wars of God

This book is essentially a biography of my uncle. I had always thought of him as a wonderful person, but in the back of my mind, I figured it was just family caring--then I witnessed his memorial service. There were so many people touched by him in life. I had to write about him! He was more than my uncle--he was a good friend, a father figure, a big brother, and a caring individual.

Frank Callas is nobody's fool and everyone's victim. He is a harmless, hapless, and curious young man who has extraordinary experiences at school in Switzerland and in elite levels of British society in the mid-1960s. His curiosity about people makes him vulnerable to other people's whims, and he often suffers the indignation of being out of place. He assumes James Bond posturing occasionally, trying to fool himself that he is something larger than his own reality. He is a clever fellow who uses a tuxedo to disguise his rough edges. He is softhearted but a heartbreaker. His intentions are honorable, but he often trips over the fine points of being an adult. Frank is uncommonly lucky to have a host of friends and girlfriends who are willing to tolerate his haphazard journey into his adulthood. It's hard not to like Frank. He wants so very much to please people.

The first few months of 2020 consisted of a wild ride for most of the world. The spread of the coronavirus, resulting in a pandemic, the subsequent sheltering-in-place orders, and all that followed from economic collapse to violence and unrest are the backdrop of this story. Sheltering in Place exposes that wedge of history parallel with the more personal events going on in Dora Maxwell's life. Life in Maine, it seems, has made a sharp left turn, leaving Dora, if not stunned, at least dismayed. The imploding of the economy is the perfect symbol of the rapid disintegration of life as she knew it. The death of her husband and estrangement from her son are only the beginning. When Dora stumbles onto some bizarre happenings going on under her nose right next door, a mysterious stranger arrives on the scene to help. Jake is a drifter who has luckily wandered into the right place at the right time. When Dora witnesses her next-door neighbor's assault, the action really takes off, but it is the misunderstandings and misperceptions along the way that bring the thrills, chills, and plot twists. Surprises are the order of the day. Be aware that this is Book 1 in a series. There is more excitement to come!

The title of my book, Rhythm of Life, sums up what life has been like for me, a series of ups and downs, much like that of a roller coaster ride. I knew when I began writing the book how the book would end; however, the process of writing the book was altogether different because I wasn't sure what roads I would be traveling to get to the end of the book, hence the book title, Rhythm of Life.

We rush through our lives in a dervish of daily routine without even noticing our breathing. Just expecting it to remain. I want to change that. I want everyone to notate every moment of their life. Never miss a minute of time that you have been allowed on this planet. Live in the \"now\". Regrets are a waste of time. Portending the future a waste of imagination. Focus on the immediate. Take nothing for granted but enjoy what the day gives us.

This qualitative study examines the effects of the reduction in available funds resulting from the current economic situation on students with disabilities in postsecondary education. There is little evidence of a study of this nature conducted in the United States, which makes such a study important at the present time. Twenty students with one or more disabilities attending postsecondary institutions, including community colleges, a public university, and a private university, were interviewed with regard to their navigation of postsecondary education during difficult economic times. I found that despite reductions in Disabled Student Services (DSS), the majority of respondents believed they would be able to graduate at their expected date of completion. Although I found that a majority of respondents did not notice reductions in DSS, some pointed out areas where services had been reduced. I found that a significant portion of the research participants were satisfied with DSS. While my findings did not support the original hypothesis, students with disabilities still experienced a level of frustration that may adversely affect their educational, and professional goals and/or quality of life. One conclusion that I was able to draw from this data is that students are not always aware of reduced services unless they are directly affected by them or until such reductions are brought to their attention. Another conclusion I drew from the research is that despite increased adversity at the level of postsecondary education, my respondents were still able to overcome their challenges and proceed towards their educational goals.

In the Bible, it presents the picture of God's love, judgement, mercy, and grace, and when we are faced with that type of perfection, we ask the question how. In John 15:4, Jesus says, "Abide in me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me." I asked the question how--one of many questions asked through this walk with the Lord--and the pages of this book is the reply to the question the Lord asked through the Holy Spirit.
