She didn''t enjoy it, like Evie, and she didn''t remain unaffected by it, like her sister. She wasn''t much good at it technically either, like Mike. It didn''t give her something to hang her hat on, like it had for Kylie for a while. And shamefully, she felt little remorse in it, even after all the other possibilities had been barred to her. Unlike Mary. No, she was most like Michelle. Maybe that''s why her successor had actually fallen in love with the second Michi. Well, she had left them together with their fashion photographer who used to also be hers and hers alone. Kristen suddenly felt quite lonely. ''Kriss'', double-s, that''s who I am now. No, it wouldn''t do. It was ludicrous. She was still Kristen, just the one that now no one needed. Except for her sister. That was really the key to all of this horror after all.

Writing this Hottie Cookbook for Men started years ago with the sole purpose of teaching guys that cooking a crowd-pleasing or intimate meal paired with appropriate beverages does not have to be a nightmare.Author Jan Wilmoth-Ostop, a farm girl from Wisconsin, remembers growing up with great food, but no money. Even when it seemed there was nothing in the fridge or on the shelves, the ladies in Jan''s family could throw together amazing meals. As a young helper in the kitchen, Jan learned to work with a combination of very few ingredients to get restaurant-quality results. She presents very easy food and beverage pairings that don''t involve hours shopping at grocery or liquor stores, yet will impress even the most discerning palates. With just five wisely chosen ingredients per recipe, you can prepare mouth-watering appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, side dishes, main dishes and desserts.Pair your food choice with an appropriate virgin or alcoholic beverage, and you''ve got the perfect combo. To set this cookbook apart from other five-ingredient cookbooks, Jan sought out her photographer friend, Lenda Schuehle from LJM Photography in Colorado Springs, Colorado (http://www.ljm-photography.com). Lenda photographed local ladies and shares her photos, meant to inspire and provide a little something different to ignite your creative culinary juices!

However, it is a message that is so profound that only a very few can understand its true meaning.Remove the Ramanamma and you are left with Me, You, We, Who?

Even a small change can have big effects in the world around us. In the ecological children''s book The Little Wave: An Adventure in Earthly Care - Part One, we learn how. A little wave is born in a pond and living a happy life, when a truck appears one day and sprays the surrounding fields causing the environment around the pond to change. The little wave does not understand why, until a duck passes by and explains what has happened and how everyone, especially children, must learn to change their behavior or nature will continue to be negatively affected. The little wave commits to finding children and to teach them how pollution impacts the environment. The wave travels down a brook and into a stream in search of children to educate. Along the way it meets creatures that explain other forms of abuse. The wave represents an innocent and natural element of the Earth. It finds a way to teach us that polluting the planet does not come without consequences, but even small changes in behavior can make a positive difference. Stephen Lamoreaux grew up in New Jersey and now calls Connecticut home. He wrote this book to improve the quality of life for his children''s generation. He is now working on Part Two, which continues the story of the wave''s travels from the stream to a river and finally the ocean.

When the apostle John saw "that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God," one of the many details he recorded was the foundation of the wall that surrounds this city.Of the twelve foundation stones, Jacinth is listed as the eleventh.Author Randall Glenn was motivated to write Jacinth: Book Five because of the dire times in which we live, and the disappearance of truth on the landscape."My fifth book is mainly a closer look at some of the foundational doctrines of the Body of Christ, the Church. This fifth book also works its way forward to my sixth and largest book on the Revelation of Jesus Christ."
There is power in our everyday living. A kind word or empathy is not just a word or feeling, it is an opening of the channels in the heart. These channels are like electrical conduits that convey the energy of life/God.Religion is meant as a practice and a guide to open these channels.Sufism is a known practice dedicated to cultivating spiritual attributes. However, even Sufism when entertained as a cult is not the end road, rather it is as a doorway or methodology.The principle of Sufism is to give pure love and charity toward others, and it is a realization of oneness that there is no separation from the creator of the universe. Sufism for Today begins by explaining where the word or term Sufi may have originated. The book describes the generality of asceticism and the basic underlying principles of selflessness, giving, and love as the foundation of all inspiration that has led mankind.Finally, Sufism for Today conveys the power and superiority of innocent acts of kindness over ritualized behaviour, regardless of the religious title or form of sectarianism practiced.
