    As a young boy growing up a couple miles from a small town and having a father who had cancer of the throat and heart problems we didn't have much money. All through life I worked on improving my life and proud of what I have done without any college. Working for RCA on three different programs, I was given a chance to learn a lot and given lots of responsibilities during my life as you will see in the book. Growing up outside a small town of 2,500 was a challenge. We lived about 2 miles from town with 7 1/2 acres of land with most of it in trees except about one acre around the house. We had at times a cow for milk and a pig for meat. We always had lots of chickens laying eggs. We always had big gardens which I got to weed but my mother would pick the vegetables. A neighbor boy would come over sometimes and we would sneak into the garden and eat some fresh peas out of the pod or sneak some strawberries. In school I took a lot of classes that helped me get my first job in Alaska as a Secretary. I had a lot of fun in school and was very popular as I have a great sense of humor which I still like making people laugh. For the last 25 years I have put the Red Suit on at Christmas. I was the official Santa in Leavenworth, Wa. for five years. I rode in a horse drawn carriage into the downtown area. I would get my picture taken hundreds of times per day. I am still very active. I am on the activities committee where we live. I do hope you enjoy the book as I have had a fun life.

    Humans have wondered for centuries about aliens, but nothing has been proven until now. These aliens in your future were a very sport-loving race that did not come in peace. They came to hunt for sport, and humans fought the war. Now you can prepare! Many believe with all the sin in the world, this was the Lord's way of cleansing the earth to start over as He did with Noah. Harry grew up in the northern lower Peninsula of Michigan. He frequently took hiking and camping trips carrying his shotgun, accompanied by his dog. Also, there were several trips to Canada. He went alone twice, taking just his canoe, backpack with supplies, and trusty shotgun. On his local camping trips, he preferred this high ground in the middle of a large cedar swamp. Harry always wondered if there were alien lifeforms, and this book from your future confirms this.

    Not since the Civil War have our People been so divided. Not since Pearl Harbor has our nation faced so many threats to our survival, now even our civilization. Never have our people been so unable to perceive what went wrong, why our culture seems to be coming unglued, what are the real threats facing us as citizens and our nation, or what We the People can do to impact a change in our nation's downward descent. "Looking Through a Class Darkly" will help us to see things more clearly as we seek to find the truths that will redeem us and our Republic. In this book you will read how: - Our nation went from the best to perhaps the worst of times in our living memory - Weak political leadership in Washington following 9/11 undermined our Republic - Unelected establishment elites have expropriated power by destroying the Constitution - Our free press sold its soul and abandoned its mandate to hold the powerful accountable - We the People and the States can save the Republic and weather the gathering storms John Whitmore Jenkins has spent the last fifty-nine years in business on the cutting edge of the most dramatic changes in our history. After graduating with an engineering degree from Texas A & M University, he served as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force with the Strategic Air Command, America's first line of defense during the Cold War against Soviet ambitions. He received his MBA from the Harvard Business School and joined International Business Machines just as the company introduced computers into the world of business. He spent the last thirty years in an industry entangled with China's rise as a major challenger to America's leadership in the free world.

After high school he decided to enter the army to get training in a field he could use after returning home. He also needed the educational benefits to attend college.

He also observed different people from different countries and their values. He made a point to share his values and learn from others their customs and values. This gave him an insight to how to act and react with the people around him. From this point on this learning experience guided him through his life experiences when interacting with other people.

    In his book that is at times poignant, at times provocative, and always laden with humor, author Jim Reddy introduces the reader to each of the many animals that have called his rural 20-acre property their home over the past few years. Through his recounting of their quirky personalities and often-hilarious antics, he brings to light the lessons they taught him, and how they each helped him remember his humanity during one of the most stressful and tumultuous times our nation has had to endure. Throughout, Jim also takes humorous aim at the people, events, trends, and challenges that have dominated and polarized our society including CRT, cancel culture, new pronouns, men in women's bathing suits, bright orange former presidents, and very dim current presidents. See what I mean? That last bit was an example of Jim's humor right there. Really. Jim Reddy is a former healthcare administrator with over 30 years experience managing medical practices and hospital imaging centers. In 2020 he left the field and he and his partner, Katherine, began dedicating their time and energy to caring for the many lost, stray, abused, or otherwise unwanted animals that had come into their life since they moved to their 20-acre property in rural America. He credits these wonderful creatures and their quirky personalities with helping him maintain his (questionable) sanity and- more importantly- his humanity during a time of unprecedented chaos and craziness in our country since the arrival of covid. His writing style and wit have been noted by such luminaries as his mother and his agent with accolades like "Best penmanship I ever saw!" and "My son is such a good boy!" Actually, his mother is his agent. But she did say those things.

    After the catastrophe of 9/11, the U.S. invaded Afghanistan, but the superpower with its powerful NATO allies left the war-torn country to a few thousand militants after fighting for two decades. Meanwhile, the U.S selected and backed Afghan leaders and warlords also betrayed their country and fellow citizens, which is the tragedy of the century. Why has nation-building in Afghanistan been so turbulent? What was the prevalent thing in the two wars in Afghanistan that resulted in both the same? What microtones-mistakes did Washington make in its longest war? And, who, when, how, and why did design the collapse of the Republic of Afghanistan?

    'He heard and felt something behind him that chilled and stopped him. It was a growl-the last sound he would have expected in the tight, dark space. His foot had touched something, solid but not hard. His mind flashed with images of wild animals cornered in dark spaces-rabid raccoons, possums, badgers? But these were animals from his mother's stories of Virginia, not of the city, not of Boston. Sam wanted to turn and look but held still. He decided to move his foot back again. He felt the resistance, and again, there was the growl. It was gravelly, rising from some animal depth. It was not a small animal. What could it possibly be? Sam couldn't stop himself from turning...It was a dog, and it was hurt... Sam could see scraped skin on its legs and patches on its coat where the fur had been scorched. Burns, that was it! The animal had been caught in the fire!'Sam was transfixed. There was something all magnificent, menacing and terribly wrong in the sight. This animal had crawled in here to die. Sam suddenly realized that his fear was gone. The absence of fear thrilled him. But he was also sobered by an equally new and demanding feeling of responsibility'.Scarboy... the story of an extraordinary German shepherd's journey through the lives of four souls in culturally-torn late 1960s America - a hippie poet, a black boy, a racist cop, and an ailing musical prodigy - and how he changes their lives forever.Rip Pauley is a former Hollywood screenwriter now living in South Carolina. "Scarboy" is his second novel.

    Immigration and racism are contentious issues in many societies. This book deals, in part, with these two controversies through the experiences of the Japanese Americans. No other second-generation ethnic group is given the kind of recognition achieved by the Nisei (second-generation Japanese Americans). But it was a perilous journey, fraught with endless discrimination, questioning of loyalty, and even confinement in concentration camps. Yet they were able to achieve remarkable success in politics and made significant advances in American society. Although thoroughly assimilated, they kept alive their rich cultural heritage. America is a country with diverse cultures, and this diversity is to be celebrated and not feared, for herein lies the strength of America. The narrative begins with a historical perspective and ends with an observer-participant view of recent events. This is a story that needs to be told. Minoru Yanagihashi was brought up in the multicultural Hawaiian environment. Early on, he developed an interest in learning about his Japanese heritage and a desire to share this knowledge with others. He hold degrees from the University of Hawaii Manoa (BA), University of Washington (MLS), University of California, Berkeley (MA), and University of Michigan (PhD). His interest includes Japanese electoral politics and foreign policy. In recent years, he has focused on the role of Japanese Americans. He is a charter member of Pan-Asian Community Alliance, Japan-America Society of Tucson, and the Southern Arizona Japanese Cultural Coalition. OTHER BOOK BY AUTHOR Kumu Hula: Challenging Journey of a Hula Master, published by Xulon Press, tells the story of one aspect of Hawaiian culture-the hula. The Japanese embracement of hula is an example of the globalization of this dance form and reveals how cultural interchange takes place.

    This book summarizes twenty-six church services that were attended in Lancaster city and county; in York county, where our home church is located; and two were in Pittsburgh two hundred and fifty miles west of our home in Lancaster. Eight of the summaries are for our home church, Gateway Church International. Four of the summaries are for the Worship Center in Leola, a church built on singing praises to our Creator. Six summaries are for three of the nineteen Lives Changed By Christ campuses. The basic format of the summaries is to detail the worship songs done during the service providing up to eight lines of lyrics for many of these songs. Then to detail the sermon, especially the specific bible verses referenced. Sometimes there were special events like baptisms. On a Wednesday night gathering we were blessed to see the movie 'Before the Wrath.' You will see little personal data here. All credit goes to the Great I Am for this book, God on the Move in Lancaster, PA, as well as for my four other Christian books: Why Jesus Returned; God's Children Step Forth; God's Lessons at the 2010 Chilean Mine Rescue; and God the Creator of Science, Technology and the U.S. Coast Guard.
