No Holds Barred: No Holding Back" is a personal testimony. When I first sat down to write, I made two promises. The first was to be open and honest about who I was and what I did. For years, I felt as if I were wearing a mask: as if I was not genuine as a person, a parent, and as a pastor. The skeletons I buried resurfaced. Trust me, this promise was demanding, especially when you are forced to face the truth about who you are. Many times, I wanted to stop writing the book in its entirety or alter some scenes. But I couldn't. The second promise was to come to terms with the truth. Despite how hard I wanted to be the young man again, when everything was said and done, I came to this simple conclusion: "God cannot undo what has been done." The battle to discern whether I was genuine, a genius, or someone who learned how to disguise his true nature came to rest.

Every parent knows a child can sometimes be incorrigible; a piece of writing occasionally acts the same way. What the author originally conceived as a simple short story involving a flood and its consequences for those called in to help defiantly grew into a full length novel. Drafted prison inmates had wishes and secrets they did not disclose (and perhaps could not put into words), as did the townspeople they came to help. But, the towering pile of sand bags holding back a flood reflected other ramparts meticulously constructed to wall out unwanted people or undesirable realities. Ultimately, this novel poses a question. Was this apparently coincidental confluence of people (with their secret wishes) and events due merely to chance or was the gathering contrived by a master planner who employs his own trade secrets to perform miracles even for those not knowing how to ask?

As a Science Teacher / Administrator for 46 years at all education levels,elementary through graduate school, the author witnessed a variety of classroom situations that were not only funny, but often very instructive. In his book, Humor in the Classroom: From Busby to Brown, he relates numerous incidents of humor that occurred in his teaching career as well as those of many of his colleagues.The incidents of humor occurred at all grade levels and in a wide variety of institution types - from a tiny Native American boarding school in southeastern Montana (Busby) to Brown University. The point of the books is twofold - to entertain the reader ( most folks have gone to school ), and to show teachers and aspiring teachers how humor can be a powerful instructional tool. Most of the funny happenings revealed in the book are from the author's experience, but several former and a present-day colleagues, friends, and acquaintances have added their own humorous school stories to the mix. The book chronicles the humor that occurred in the author's and his colleagues classrooms from 1964-2006 and includes stops in Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming, North Carolina, Rhode Island and back to North Carolina. The point of the book is that a sense of humor is not only a pre requisite to being a good teacher, but it can help students in the learning process as well.

Finally, a game leader's "dream" book that is thorough yet succinctly written that combines group games that actually have been played and that participants immensely enjoy. Here in one book are all the elements for effectively leading and participating in group games that are fun, that require little or moderate equipment, that range from high to low energy, and that can be played with players from all ages. The unique and consistent game template with a game on each page is easy to follow and results with leaders and players getting the most out of the activities. If you ever wanted to own just one book-one game book-this is it! Inside you will find the one hundred very best group games ever played, along with key terminology, play statements, effective teaching techniques. It Power guidelines, methods to select teams, learning theory, guidelines for processing the games, tournament information, and a creative game matrix with nearly three million different combinations of games. Playing games can be lots of fun. Leading games can be quite rewarding. The information in this book provides an opportunity to maximize both the fun and effectiveness of leading play activities. Every game in this book has been played and replayed, analyzed and tweaked, and written from the heart by an author who loves to have fun, laugh, and see others caught up in the enjoyment of play. Games are not just frivolous or about playing; people tend to play the way they live their lives also. We can learn a lot about players when games are a "tool" to observe human behavior. Effective leading and leaders who ask the "good" questions can make the play experience more powerful. The "template" format of the book is unique and treats each game as a serious endeavor. Nearly all games include the same "ingredients," what a great idea to prepare them with consistency. Variations and safety considerations to each game create new and fun possibilities. Games can be used for many, many purposes. So why not be realistic and include tag, guessing, competitive, collective score, team building, problem solving, relay, and name games? Why not let the leaders and the people who buy the book decide how they will use the material? The appendices and all the support material make leading these games much easier and more fun for all involved. The Creative Game and Play Matrix is a special addition. In the past, hundreds of games have been created from the matrix, and here is my observation: children tend to create games where (1) all children play-no one has to wait in line; (2) children rarely eliminate players from the game as the game continues; and (3) children seldom create games that require hitting. Those seem to be adult concepts!
