“My storey is about my life. I was born in 1939, and my family literally broke apart when I was “little”. I do not recall ever living in a home with my mother and father together. There were several years I spent in foster care; and then living with Mom and then Dad, bouncing back and forth a couple of times, until I was a junior in high school. My father moved, but I didn’t. I spent my final year in high school living with a local family, thanks to a basketball coach who took special interest in me. I spent some of my time growing up being a juvenile delinquent; petty theft, shop-lifting, drinking, smoking and other such irresponsible activities. I made a decision to change my life after my freshman year in high school, and went to live with my father, whom I already knew was a strict disciplinarian and a very controlling individual. But, I got the chance to start my life over again at age 15. I made the most of my new start, and I want to tell my story!”
What if Lukes interviews were found? No original autographs of any of the New Testament have even been found. Very early copies of some of the books and letters exist and early codices also exist, but when it comes to original handwritten notes, they remain hidden. Eyewitnesses! covers an archaeological dig sometime in the future, in modern Romes ancient catacombs. The dig uncovers an earthenware jar containing Lukes original interviews with some of the personalities in his Gospel account. These accounts are much more detailed than Luke was spiritually led to record in his Gospel. In Eyewitnesses!, you will meet some of the people who are only mentioned in passing, others who have greater backgrounds than recorded, and some we have never even heard of because Luke didnt include them.
With the heart of an agitator and the soul of a storyteller, inequality expert Chuck Collins upends our assumptions about America's deep wealth divide - one that, for the first time in recent history, locks the nation's youth into a future defined by their class and wealth at birth; limits our ability to address crises like climate change; and creates a world that no one, not even the rich, will ultimately want to live in. In [this book], Collins calls for an end to class war, busts the myths that define our views of rich and poor, and offers bold new solutions for bridging the economic divide and re-engaging the wealthy in rebuilding communities for a resilient future."--

This book is about a journey. A journey of creating magic with children. It sheds light on why creating Magic for children is important. It is about a journey into the realm of children whose innocence is taken from them far too soon. It is about smiles and laughter and secrets and perhaps a little magic that results in believing. Believing for a moment longer or if we are lucky, another year. Or if we really believe perhaps that magic can last a lifetime. But this story is about so much more. It is about what children gave me as I evolved into being a Santa Claus. It is about how I became a much better person. It is a story about how I gained insight and understanding in the power of believing, even when believing seems impossible.
Although Movie Stars and famous people will read this book, we have not asked for their comments or opinions at this time. They would be too biased and their comments would have little value. "There is nothing like curling up with a funny read. You will feel good all over. Garbo and Sandy are the best." - Garbo's mother, Lucy "If the book were a restaurant meal, it would be 5 Stars-and probably be eaten by Sandy." - Sandy's Vet, Dr Osgood "A humorous look at an American-Armenian family and an amazing dog. You will laugh and cry. It is difficult to admit, Garbo has created a comical masterpiece." - A true critic, Garbo's mother-in-law, Shirley "Soon to be a major motion picture-if we can find a producer and some actors, and a movie studio with a contract. Hello?" - Chuck Garbo Hajinian, DDS "Reminded me of "MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING" on steroids with a dog." - Sandy's neighbor, Jim, not a relative.
WESTHAMPTON: Golden Days and Memories for a Lifetime is Mansfield’s seventh book. Its preface begins with, “Westhampton is in my blood.” In some 300 pages the author makes his case by telling sometimes hilarious tales of family, friends and situations. He calls his “life experiences in Westhampton...the most joyful in my nearly four score years. They have provided clear and warm memories all the way from childhood to the present day, a span of more than 76 years. The richness of these experiences is inestimable but oh so gratifying, as they were golden days and memories for a lifetime.” In his epilogue Mansfield writes: “An online dictionary defines nostalgia as ‘a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.’ To me these words apply perfectly to my life and times in Westhampton.” It is a funny, story-telling book.

NEW ORLEANS, 1919. For nearly a decade, a ruthless killer has prowled the streets of this city, breaking into homes in the middle of the night and hacking people to death with an ax. He leaves few clues. Even his motives are unclear. The police are baffled. The killer even writes a letter to a local newspaper--echoing Jack the Ripper from three decades earlier--and claims to be a "demon from hottest hell." But Detective Colin Fitzgerald, a wounded veteran only recently returned from the Great War, is prepared to do whatever it takes to catch this killer. What Fitzgerald is not prepared for are the shocking secrets his investigation will uncover, secrets that stretch to the top levels of the Police Department and City Hall, and reach back decades to the assassination of a legendary police chief and to the murder of Fitzgerald's own father.

Acclaim for Friendship: a gift divine By Chuck Mansfield Retired educator Linda Giarraputo Jeans has written, “Reading FRIENDSHIP is experiencing the gift of lifelong relationships (and) stepping into the realm of meaningful human connection. In today’s world, we seem to not have the time nor the situations where long lasting bonds are built. Chuck takes us into his life, a life of faithfulness, honesty, support, humor and trust. Enjoy FRIENDSHIP in its finest voice.” Frequent reader Lucine Morris has emailed, “Mansfield demonstrates once again the advantage of having a keen memory. Thanks are due him for documenting the rewards that derive from devoting energy to developing and maintaining strong relationships. The insights he shares deftly fulfill the promise of the title of his new book.” U.S. Army veteran, retired attorney and senior international executive Arthur L. Burns has commented: “Mansfield’s subject, FRIENDSHIP, is probably one of the few things that still light our world in the midst of all the darkness and fear around us. So, kudos!” U.S. Army Vietnam War veteran, Bronze Star recipient and retired senior information technology executive Edward M. Finegan has stated, “Mansfield’s book FRIENDSHIP is a work of love, caring, helping and the immense value of friendship... I continue to be impressed with the scope of his creativity in bringing many of the more important aspects of life to the awareness of large audiences. After all, what do we really have in this journey if not true, loyal, reliable friends?” Author, former coach and retired law firm administrator Thomas P. Kiley, Jr. has written, “His latest effort may be the author’s most heartwarming. Each essay is a blend of deep thought and graceful prose. He writes poignantly, as only he can, about friendships made in Brooklyn, grammar school, Garden City, Chaminade High, Holy Cross College, the Marines, business and finally Westhampton. No matter how far and wide he has roamed during his 79 years, Mansfield has never left a friend behind.” U.S. Navy veteran and former CEO James C. Norwood, Jr. has written, “I have always been amazed with the brilliance of Chuck’s ability to create interesting stories that have transcended three-quarters of a century. In many cases his stories are mine! The memories he brings back to life are incredible. I only wish we could relive our loving lifelong friendship. Having best friends who love you as much as you love them makes one’s life complete.” Of FRIENDSHIP former Marine Corps combat helicopter pilot and Vietnam War veteran Bain D. Slack has observed, “Most people have only a handful of really good, dependable friends you know that you can always count on. What is Mansfield’s secret that enables him to have such a large number of really good friends? He himself is the very best friend a person could have. I had a serious problem... As soon as Chuck learned of my plight, using his own resources and his own time, energy and intelligence, he took it upon himself to solve my problem.”

This book explores the possibility for an anthropology of services and outlines a practice approach to designing services. The reader is taken on a journey that Blomberg and Darrah have been on for the better part of a decade from their respective positions helping to establish a services research group within a large global enterprise and an applied anthropology master's program at a Silicon Valley university. They delve into the world of services to understand both how services are being conceptualized today and the possible benefits that might result from taking an anthropological view on services and their design. The authors argue that the anthropological gaze can be useful precisely because it combines attention to details of everyday life with consideration of the larger milieu in which those details make sense. Furthermore, it asks us to reflect upon and assess our own perspectives on that which we hope to understand and change. Central to their exploration is the question of how to conceptualize and engage with the world of services given their heterogeneity, the increasing global importance of the service economy, and the possibilities introduced for an engaged scholarship on service design. While discourse on services and service design can imply something distinctively new, the authors point to parallels with what is known about how humans have engaged with each other and the material world over millennia. Establishing the ubiquity of services as a starting point, the authors go on to consider the limits of design when the boundaries and connections between what can be designed and what can only be performed are complex and deeply mediated. In this regard the authors outline a practice approach to designing that acknowledges that designing involves participating in a social context, that design and use occur in concert, that people populate a world that has been largely built by and with others, and that formal models of services are impoverished representations of human performance. An Anthropology of Services draws attention to the conceptual and methodological messiness of service worlds while providing the reader with strategies for intervening in these worlds for human betterment as complex and challenging as that may be.

Semiconductors and Modern Electronics is a brief introduction to the physics behind semiconductor technologies. Chuck Winrich, a physics professor at Babson College, explores the topic of semiconductors from a qualitative approach to understanding the theories and models used to explain semiconductor devices. Applications of semiconductors are explored and understood through the models developed in the book. The qualitative approach in this book is intended to bring the advanced ideas behind semiconductors to the broader audience of students who will not major in physics. Much of the inspiration for this book comes from Dr. Winrich's experience teaching a general electronics course to students majoring in business. The goal of that class, and this book, is to bring forward the science behind semiconductors, and then to look at how that science affects the lives of people.

The first full and complete modern biography of Texas Ranger Captain Hughes, who served as a Texas Ranger from 1887 until early 1915--longer than any other on the force. He first came to the attention of the Rangers after trailing horse thieves and recovering his stock. In his golden years he became a national celebrity, receiving more awards and honors than any other Texas Ranger.
Charles Logan was a highly decorated combat veteran and retired Army Ranger. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan brought back the nightmares of young men and women in Vietnam who’d suffered the loss of limbs and had been compelled to endure those consequences. Blessed with unexpected good fortune, he established ReRanger School, a facility predicated on the belief that technology must meet the needs of our heroes, that our heroes must not be relegated to the limitations of technology. He set out to return to them some small measure of what they’d sacraficed for their country.
The TCP/IP protocol suite has become the de facto standard for computer communications in today's networked world. The ubiquitous implementation of a specific networking standard has led to an incredible dependence on the applications enabled by it. Today, we use the TCP/IP protocols and the Internet not only for entertainment and information, but to conduct our business by performing transactions, buying and selling products, and delivering services to customers. We are continually extending the set of applications that leverage TCP/IP, thereby driving the need for further infrastructure support. It is our hope that both the novice and the expert will find useful information in this publication.
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A small town is transformed when seven strange trees begin bearing magical apples in this masterpiece of horror from the author of Wanderers and The Book of Accidents. “This masterful outing should continue to earn Wendig comparisons to Stephen King.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) LOCUS AWARD FINALIST • AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR It’s autumn in the town of Harrow, but something besides the season is changing there. Because in that town there is an orchard, and in that orchard, seven most unusual trees. And from those trees grows a new sort of apple: strange, beautiful, with skin so red it’s nearly black. Take a bite of one of these apples, and you will desire only to devour another. And another. You will become stronger. More vital. More yourself, you will believe. But then your appetite for the apples and their peculiar gifts will keep growing—and become darker. This is what happens when the townsfolk discover the secret of the orchard. Soon it seems that everyone is consumed by an obsession with the magic of the apples . . . and what’s the harm, if it is making them all happier, more confident, more powerful? Even if something else is buried in the orchard besides the seeds of these extraordinary trees: a bloody history whose roots reach back to the very origins of the town. But now the leaves are falling. The days grow darker. It’s harvest time, and the town will soon reap what it has sown.
Dr. Chuck Radis was drawn to a career in medicine after meeting an osteopathic family practice bush pilot in Baja, Mexico. Following an internal medicine residency, the young doctor moved his family to Peaks Island off the coast of Maine and traveled by boat to the four year-round islands in Casco Bay, logging more than 100 house calls each year. Come along with Dr. Radis as he makes his rounds with a new batch of stories filled with equal parts hilarity, heartache, and wisdom.
No matter how talented the athlete, how beautiful the stadium, or how wealthy the owner of a team might be: No professional team can be successful without the can support of fans. This being the case, I feel it is the fans that should negotiate with the players rather than with the owners or players unions. In this book, I address twelve major sports and made recommendations that are both unique and economically feasible for the owners, the teams, and the people (the fans) who generate the money to pay all the costs associated with professional sports. If you have ever paid to see a baseball, basketball, or soccer game; if you have ever paid to see a boxing match, or any other sporting event; then you are an Athletic Supporter. We have all witnessed basketball, baseball and football strikes. Players and owners alike will go on strike if they think it will help them to get what they want. The fans are never contacted to give their opinions even though they pay all the bills. Even baseball umpires and other sporting officials have threatened strikes. The cost of attending a sporting event has gotten out of hand. A family of four, attending a baseball game, will spend hundreds of dollars. This book addresses how fans can receive back some of the money they spend at sporting events, while holding the players accountable, and at the same time, increase revenue for the food and merchandise venders at sporting events. The proposed new rules will make the game more competitive and will result in larger and more enthused crowds. With the recommendations make in this book, many sporting fans will go home with more money and/or free merchandise than when they arrived.
Leaders are falling victim to the deadliest sin every day! Many potentially great leaders never realize their potential because they unwittingly become slaves to their own pride. In The Deadliest Sin, you'll find a penetrating look at the poison of pride in the life of a leader. Chuck Foreman says, "It's high time we as leaders recognize that, as a rule, we are not very humble, and that humility is not the absence of pride, but the relentless effort to subdue pride in ourselves." "Be ready to laugh and cry. But most important, be ready to be confronted with the uncomfortable and even painful recognition of your own double standard in terms of pride and its opposite humility. Chuck's book is honest, easy to read, and has short useful topics to discuss with your leadership team. I plan to use it with ours at Harvest." -Bob Moffitt, author, If Jesus Were Mayor. President, Harvest Foundation
What happens when a metal band gets caught up in the apocalypse? Even better, what happens when you give that same scenario to twelve of the genre’s hottest authors? Rosamilia, Besser, Abell, Buda, Shelman, Silverman, Stallcup, Wallen, Johnesee, Wilburn, Welmerink, Madron … each author was put to the task to take the apocalyptic story up to eleven. 1. 12. 11. Do the math. It all works out to rock and roll; zombie style.
You can help by following the suggested ideas in Now Is the Time To . . . Learn what you can do to change the direction of our society. Even if you do not know what to do, you can find out by answering simple questions, following a pattern, and making a plan. Make your plan into small goals and take one step at a time and you will be successful. Noah was told to build a boat now before the flood came. Joseph was told to prepare now for seven years of famine. Israel was told by many prophets to repent now or suffer judgment. The key to past events in history is Gods Word and the urgency to do something now to make this nation great again. We need God in America again.
As the church and as a country, we've often neglected and avoided addressing the impact and ongoing reality of racism. We've been more focused on order than justice, more concerned with social media posturing than solidarity, more committed to judgment than repentance. But God's people are called to more. We need to lead the way to true racial healing, solidarity, and justice. Through enlightening history and eye-opening personal stories, Living Undivided will equip and empower you with the biblical, transformative tools you need to move from just hoping and wishing for racial justice to actionable change that makes a difference in your life and the lives of churches, neighborhoods, and cities.
According to Jesus Himself, even better than having Jesus with us is having the Holy Spirit within us. Yet many believers have trouble, just as Jesus's disciples did, understanding how this could be. Better Off Without Jesus takes readers on a journey toward embracing the presence of the Holy Spirit within and guides them as they seek to understand and obey the voice of the Spirit in their lives. Readers will construct a biblical grid for discerning God's voice and get the tools they need to stay in tune with the Spirit's direction.
Senator Chuck Hagel has long been admired by his colleagues on both sides of the Senate floor for his honesty, integrity, and common-sense approach to the challenges of our times. The Los Angeles Times has praised his "bold positions on foreign policy and national security" and wondered, "What's not to like?" In America: Our Next Chapter, Nebraska-born Hagel offers a hard-hitting examination of the current state of our nation and provides substantial, meaningful proposals that can guide America back onto the right path. In America: Our Next Chapter, Hagel speaks the truth as he sees it—in a direct and refreshingly unvarnished manner. Basing his suggestions on thorough research and careful thought, as well as on personal insight from his years as a political insider, successful businessman, and decorated war hero, he discusses domestic issues—including the health care crisis, immigration, and Social Security and Medicare reform—and global climate change. He confronts foreign policy problems that the current administration has bungled or ignored, including China's growing economy; control of U.S. debt; India's and Pakistan's nuclear capabilities; and Iran's aggressive political, ideological, and nuclear stances. He decries the pervasive disease of third world poverty, arguing convincingly that this is where the real fight against terrorism must begin. Always true to the beliefs instilled in his childhood on the prairie, he speaks passionately about service—to one's country and to one's fellow citizens—as the path toward a renewed America. And, of course, he gives a candid examination of the debacle that is the Iraq War. A staunch Republican yet a "hero to liberals" (Time), Hagel asks the tough questions and delivers straight answers to America's most pressing problems. America: Our Next Chapter is a serious, honest, and, ultimately, optimistic look at our nation's future, from an American original.
