As I looked around, I saw so many gifted Christians- spiritually and naturally - fall by the Way. Why?, because of past sin. Sin will make you ashamed to go on. The key to overcoming is to know we belongto God and He has our backs.This Book, "TakeAway the Shame", I hope will let Christians know you don't have to befamous to overcome or tell other Christians about the things you went throughto make it. You can be an ordinaryperson - like me - reaching out and telling the World, "through Jesus Christ,we are conquerors".

The journey for this book started with our Great Grandkids. When Sadie came to us from the breeder, she was 9 weeks old and a bundle of energy. We raised puppy's before, but we were not the main characters in our puppy's lives. Our children were. Because of this technical age we live in, we started making cell phone videos about raising a puppy at our age. Before long, our great grandkids started wanting to see more videos and that started their interest in "Sadie". When we looked at those videos, we noticed Sadie was telling us her story about growing up a "Baker". We decided to put pen to paper and write down what she was telling us. The result is this book.

IS IT POSSIBLE FOR SENIORS TO AVOID A FALLFalls are the leading cause of injury, emergency room visits, and hospitalizations for seniors in North America. Tripping down can reduce independence and accelerate the need for long-term care. Systematically reading this book- as well as introducing and embracing the author's recommendations related to physical exercising into their lives- would most likely help seniors to avoid collapsing or plummeting to the floor. In the introduction and first chapter of this book, the writer analyzes important research contributions from Dr. Angela Duckworth, Dr. Katherine Milkman, as well as a fitness professional Amanda Sterczyk as far as physical exercising experiments are concerned. At the end of the day, the scientific groups could not get definite conclusions. This author is convinced that, one of the reasons why the experiments were not successful, was that the word tenacity was not even included or mentioned as a possible factor related to the results of the research. While chapter II may be interpreted as a wake-up call to the readers about the direct physical consequences of plunging, chapter III stands out because it attempts to challenge them to understand, not only the tables, but also their conclusions, and even to create their own in the third table. A special characteristic of this chapter is that the author narrates his own experience introducing tenacity and being in control of his health. Chapter IV is related to the five factors generally leading to a fall, emphasizing the helping role of systematic exercising to reduce the chances of plummeting, which requires the conscientious introduction of tenacity. Additionally, the author includes three factors that can help in avoiding dropping down for seniors, according to his own successful experience.Chapter V includes two very important topics:1) Twenty five suggestions of possible ways for seniors to avoid falling derived from the author's commitment and dedication to improve his health; and 2) the rivalry or confrontation between tenacity and procrastination exemplified by the author's two main victories: a) learning English in Cuba during his early youth becoming a bilingual stenographer in less than three years, and b) entering upon the University of Havana without being allowed- by the Cuban government representatives - to finish High School and ranking as the salutatorian student amidst six hundred peers, as well as being appointed as instructor of his own colleagues two years before finishing his career in economics. Chapter VI deals with being in control of one's health by means of sixteen recommendations and eight symptoms of recognizing that health is not doing well, while Chapter VII relates to the author's experience in the relationship between systematic exercising, tenacity, and sense of purpose. Chapter VIII is dedicated to the positive effect of walking dogs on avoiding falls in seniors.Chapter IX exemplifies the combination of tenacity and sense of purpose in preventing, steering clear of, or keeping away from falls confirmed by twenty examples of remarkably eminent persons, sixty-five % of which lived more than eighty years.

There are so many forms of street photography. The photos in this book are a form of street photography as I see it. Humanity Sans Human makes the suggestion that people were around but there are no people in the frame.

Obviously, this book finds its title from the slogan created by former president Donald Trump Make America Great Again. This book is intended to argue, that for America to be great, it must be Christian. This does not mean that other religions are not welcome as has never been the case in America, but rather as a country based upon biblical principles, there has always been true freedom of religion. The point being that this country was founded upon the teachings of the Bible which is why there is freedom of religion, each person is free to choose for themselves either heaven or hell. This book is divided into three sections, the first one discussing the fact that America was founded as a Christian nation and as such it grew to be the most powerful and prosperous nation on the earth. Since departing from the Bible, its teachings and its God, America is now in a steep decline. The second section discusses the 5 main institutions of any society and how that in each case, they work better when they follow the teachings and principles of the Bible. The final section is what can still be done to turn America back to its roots and back to the Bible. As Bible believers, we know the time is short and the coming of our Lord to take home His people and to judge the world in His righteousness is indeed imminent. But in these last days, lest us not be lax in the preaching of the gospel and making a stand for the things that are holy. Let us get off of our seats, onto our feet and into the streets, to be as the prophets of old and declare that thus says the Lord.

Eric Lloyd, a private investigator from Santa Monica, is called in to help investigate the serial murders of two young Indian women near a small rural town in southern California. The caller is none other than Erle Stanley Gardner, America's most famous mystery writer, who is involved because the murders happened so close to his ranch. Together Lloyd and Gardner aid the county sheriff in attempting to solve the baffling murders, which appear to have no motive. Most mysterious of all, the killer seems to be deliberately drawing attention to the memory of a long-dead pioneer of the area, whose grave is connected to a curse well-known to the local inhabitants. To solve crimes committed in 1954, Gardner and Lloyd find they must understand a crime committed in 1875 -- a crime which victimized the local Indian tribe, and in which the pioneer was involved. Set on the actual ranch of Erle Stanley Gardner, Wolf Valley is a delightful and provocative period murder mystery which will appeal to mystery fans everywhere. A masterpiece of accurate historical research combined with colorful fiction, it offers a fascinating view of the great mystery writer and his lifestyle, set in the actual surroundings where he lived for more than thirty years. It also reveals an astonishing and previously unknown connection between Gardner and one of the most famous works in American literature, the classic 1884 novel Ramona.
