The Fire Knife Dance

The Story Behind the Flames Ta'alolo to Nifo'oti

The book expresses the history of the Samoan fire knife dance (Samoan Ailao), from the time it was a victory ceremony of war to its modern day form. The explanation of the weapon nifooti (the deadly tooth or cutting tooth) is defined. The book elaborates the various stages of the dance from traditional to creative or a modern style, it also define how to build the actual knife itself. It also expresses how to formulate a dancing routine from its simplest stages to become a professional, to prepare the knife and body to take on the challenge to compete against the worlds best. The steps of dancing with one, two, three and four knives are mentioned.

Midlife Muse

A Paranormal Women's Fiction and Fantasy Novel

By: Donna McDonald

Midlife Muse is a paranormal women’s fiction and fantasy novel and an action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. I may look like a 40-year-old woman, but inside I'm a goddess. My name is Goddess Atlanta. Haven't you heard of me? No? Bet you've heard of my twin sister, Athena, the Goddess of War. Sure. Everyone’s heard of her. Shunned by my birth family, I grew up with the Muses as sisters and friends. Being a Muse sucked, though, and I failed at inspiring others. What can I say? Being a warrior is the song that sings in my blood. Just hand me a sword and move back while I call down lightning. Be careful though because my aim’s not what it used to be. Becoming a 40-year-old and mostly mortal woman has taken a toll, especially on my knees. Because of my father, my entire pantheon is also mortal and dying. I have to find a worthy champion to help me save us all. Failure is not an option no matter how old or mortal I get. My name is Atlanta, Goddess of the Doomsday Prophecy. And this is my Mortal Midlife Story. AUTHOR NOTE: This new story is both paranormal and fantasy (think Trolls, Pegasi, and Dragons) and women’s fiction (think issues of aging). Romantic elements are also included. This is the first book in my new series which has its roots in Greek mythology. You can count on the good guys winning some of their battles, but that’s the only promise I can make. As with all my work, there will be lots of laughs along the way. Topics: mythology, Greek mythology, goddess, series starter, first in series, fantasy series, paranormal action and adventure, women's fiction, fantasy fiction, paranormal romance, shifter romance, romance ebook, romance series, fantasy romance, paranormal elements, contemporary fantasy, urban fantasy, HEA, strong heroine, alpha hero, romance fiction, romance books, USA Today Bestseller, paranormal romance shifters series

Implementation of the Asthma Practice Guideline in the Army Medical Department

Evaluation of Process and Effects

By: Donna O. Farley,Shan Cretin,Georges Vernez,Suzanne Pieklik,Elaine Quiter

In partnership with the Army Medical Department, RAND worked to implement clinical practice guidelines. This report evaluates the asthma guideline demonstration. It documents the actions, assesses effects, and measures the quality and limitations of data for monitoring outcomes. The authors found that the implementation scored successes but resource limitations and organizational barriers curbed progress. They conclude that flexibility, monitoring, and training are the keys to implementing the guidelines. They also found that patient education needed improvement.

Muse No More

A Paranormal Women's Fiction and Fantasy Novel

By: Donna McDonald

Muse No More is a paranormal fantasy women’s fiction novel and is a women’s action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. Was it necessary for an entire task of the prophecy to be about me making amends? With four tasks of the Doomsday Prophecy solved and five more to go, I need time some time off to rest and recharge before tackling task five. My goddess power is dwindling daily. Signs of mortal aging are warning me that my goddess days may be nearing their Mortal Realm end. Should I admit failure to the Fates and beg for help from them? That’s never happening. Or at least it’s not happening until I’ve run out of other options. I’m not sure what other goddesses would do in my situation, but I’m taking my dragon champion and heading to Rome for a break. Who knows? Maybe I’m just tired. So what if I can’t make a portal and have to ask a magical friend to do it for me? A visit to my secret treasure vault in Rome will hopefully be worth swallowing that much of my pride. My mortal sins are few. My goddess sins are many. Maybe a walk down memory lane is long overdue. AUTHOR NOTE: This story is paranormal fantasy (think Dark Fairies, Demons, Pegasi, and Dragons) and a women’s action and adventure novel. Some romantic elements are also included. This is the third book in the Nine Heirs and a Spare series which has its roots in Greek mythology. You can count on the good guys (or rather good women) winning some of their battles, but that’s the only promise I can make. As with all my work, there will be some good laughs along the way. Topics: mythology, Greek mythology, goddess, series starter, first in series, fantasy series, paranormal action and adventure, women's fiction, fantasy fiction, paranormal romance, shifter romance, romance ebook, romance series, fantasy romance, paranormal elements, contemporary fantasy, urban fantasy, HEA, strong heroine, alpha hero, romance fiction, romance books, USA Today Bestseller, paranormal romance shifters series

Valley of Healing

Valley of Healing

By: Donna Lee Leissner

The author experienced a diagnosis of breast cancer in January, 2007. Through the subsequent healing process, the idea of this devotional journal took shape. The initial hurdle to be managed was the overwhelming fear that such a diagnosis brings. The same could happen with any traumatic experience in our lives. At times we feel totally helpless and out of control wondering if God is really there or even cares what we are going through. I have found over the years that the God who created me also taught me how to "sing" in the valley of life. Sometimes the music doesn't sound pleasant but it is deeply heartfelt nonetheless, and must be released for healing to occur. As you read through the pages, I pray you will find a richly satisfying experience with the Holy Spirit as your Comforter and Counselor, as I have. The author grew up in a Christian home but had no relationship with Jesus until a divorce occurred. This event initiated a two-week period where she had thoughts of suicide. Jesus came into her life in a powerful way and began a healing process that continues to this day. Twenty years later, many close family and friends have told her to publish the poems the Holy Spirit has given over the years. Based on (2 Corinthians 13:1), "Let a thing be confirmed by two or three witnesses," she's finally ventured in faith to bless the Lord with this book and prays it will minister to you as she's been ministered to by the Holy Spirit through the writing, reading and re-reading of them while journeying the path of healing. The author lives with her husband in Maryland. She has three grown children and one granddaughter. She currently attends Cornerstone Assembly of God Church in Bowie, Maryland.

Financial Education in U.S. State Colleges and Universities

Establishing and Building Programs

By: Donna E. Danns

This book addresses the uncertain state of financial literacy among today’s college students and examines steps colleges and universities are taking to address this widespread concern. This work introduces a four-fold typology of organizational models for college-based financial education programs and uses these as optics for grouping and presenting case studies. The case studies presented provide a holistic representation of how universities develop, sustain and grow financial education programs. Details on the nature of programs, goals, administrative support, resources, partnerships, scale of operations, program content and delivery, advertising, evaluation, program spinoffs, and much more are captured in this work. In addition to detailed case studies, this book presents general findings on the availability of and delivery modes for college-based financial education. This work has significant utility for universities and colleges seeking to implement new financial education programs, changing existing programs, improving program relevancy or expanding program delivery on campus. It is an important contribution to the experiential understanding on how college students as consumers can acquire financial education as part of their broader college curricula and be able to better manage their financial lives. Included in the coverage: The financial literacy imperative. Program delivery and organizational models in state colle ges and universities. The academic model. The full-fledged money management center. The aspirational/seed program. The branch/interspersed model. As financial literacy is increasingly recognized as a core life skill, it becomes more crucial as a component of higher education. Personal Financial Education in State Colleges and Universities in the U.S. is salient reading for college and university administrators, researchers, social workers and mental health professionals working with college students, policy analysts and faculty from any discipline interested in promoting the financial literacy of their students.

What's Love Got to Do With It?

Understanding and Healing the Rift Between Black Men and Women

By: Donna Franklin

Relationships between black men and women in America are in crisis—it's time to figure out what's gone wrong and start the healing process. The current divorce rates for black couples have quadrupled since 1960 and is now double that of the general population; rates of domestic violence in black marriages are skyrocketing; and nearly half of married black men admit to having been unfaithful. In What's Love Got to Do with It? Donna Franklin, one of the country's leading African American sociologists, speaks out on these painful, complex issues, providing an incisive and riveting analysis of the gender tensions that are the legacy of slavery and its aftermath. Franklin breaks new ground in explaining why black men and women have trouble relating to each other, and examines their profoundly different starting points, which are influenced by generations of racism and injustice. She shows how black women's strength and self-sufficiency can be used to nurture relationships. Likewise, she teaches black men how to support one another and their relationships with women without excluding women, as has happened with the Million Man March. The challenge of mending the rift between black men and women is formidable but can be made easier. Understanding is the first step on the path to healing.

The Perfect Song

The True Story of Arthur Lee Crume, Sr. of the Soul Stirrers

By: Donna J. Bosn

Legends are said to be those individuals who soar above the limitations of the average human experience. These special souls leave eternal footprints in the hearts of even the casual observer, and their message remains timeless. History books are full of stories about these remarkable people. While some of these dynamic leaders affect only their generation, others are birthed for the purposes of eternity. Arthur Lee Crume Sr. is such a man. Arthur is the owner, manager and longest active member of the widely acclaimed Soul Stirrers' Gospel Quartet. Historians herald this group as the greatest quartet in the history of gospel music. Arthur's musical talents catapulted and held him at the top of his field for several decades. Although he enjoyed all the attention and accolades he received, he had one serious problem. Arthur did not have a personal relationship with the God he was singing about. All the notoriety and fame stroked his already inflated ego and caused him to become even more self-absorbed. His poor choices and fleshly appetites scarred the lives of those who loved him the most, leaving broken hearts littered along life's highway. But God, who is rich in mercy, never gave up on Arthur. Arthur was born and raised in the cotton fields of Missouri. Just as Jesus taught His followers through parables-earthly stories with heavenly meanings-the cotton plant held a spiritual truth for Arthur. This bush-like plant mirrored his life. If properly nourished, both housed the necessary components to eventually produce mature fruit. Just like the cottonseed, a miracle had to take place so the darkness would be banished and the seedling could break through the hard soil and reach toward the light. After bursting through the soil, the tender plant would be exposed to the high winds and blowing sand. Mirrored by Arthur's life struggles is a picture of Israel's eventual redemption.

The Thriver's Edge

Seven Keys to Transform the Way You Live, Love, and Lead

By: Donna Stoneham

Are you more afraid of success than failure? Do you undervalue your worth? Are you unaware of the limitations that keep you from flourishing in your life, work, and relationships? A major reason why people don’t thrive is because we’re focusing on the wrong things―on keeping up rather than waking up to what matters most. In The Thriver’s Edge, master executive coach and transformational leadership expert Dr. Donna Stoneham uses her powerful THRIVER model to help readers uncover the beliefs and fears holding them back from more fully expressing their gifts. Page by page, Dr. Stoneham explores the many ways to develop and integrate the seven keys—trust, humility, resilience, inner direction, vision, expansiveness, and responsibility—that lead to thriving, illustrating her points with personal stories and inspirational examples of various people who have flourished in the midst of adversity. At the end of each chapter, powerful reflection questions and practices encourage readers to put these seven keys into practice. Practical, applicable, and transformative, The Thriver’s Edge is a “coach in a book” that teaches readers to unleash their potential, fulfill their dreams and offer their best to the world.

Tapping

Self-Healing with the Transformative Power of Energy Psychology

By: Donna Eden,David Feinstein, PhD

“A lucid guide to energy psychology that demonstrates techniques and procedures that can bring about remarkably rapid changes in the way people feel and move through the world.” —Bessel van der Kolk, MD, #1 New York Times nonfiction bestselling author of The Body Keeps the Score What if the answer to what’s holding you back was at your very fingertips? That’s exactly the solution presented in Tapping. We all face a range of issues in common areas of life, from worry, depression, and trauma to self-defeating habits, addictions, and relationships. Thankfully, Tapping is an accessible and authoritative new work that offers a vibrant response to the psychological and spiritual trials presented by a world in unprecedented distress. Renowned clinical psychologist Dr. David Feinstein, along with the world’s most sought-after expert on energy medicine, Donna Eden, promise: “Whether the emotional issue at hand is caused by stress or anxiety, physical ailments, aging, the pressures of parenting, work, or staying centered and grounded in this world, we offer a framework and a set of tools to help you show up at your best.” Tapping energy points on the skin while bringing problems and goals to mind changes the brain in ways that help to overcome those challenges and support those aspirations. This stimulating practice places an astonishingly effective tool into your hands, quite literally. Emerging from time-honored healing traditions, the procedure signals your nervous system to reduce fear, anger, stress, and grief while activating brain regions involved with problem-solving and managing emotions—to help you find inner balance and take charge of the internal models that govern your life. As cultural historian Dr. Jean Houston declares in her foreword, this “is a stunning call to action at a time of desperate personal and collective need.” Created for everyday and professional readers alike, here is an unprecedented resource for self-care and personal growth. Through their extensive research and field-tested refinements on this method, Eden and Feinstein combine the scientifically validated effectiveness of tapping with the best practices of psychotherapy, helping you move forward to a healthier and happier life.

Muse It or Lose It

A Paranormal Women's Fiction and Fantasy Novel

By: Donna McDonald

Muse It or Lose It is a paranormal women’s fiction and fantasy novel and a new action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. Sometimes I just don’t understand my crazy life. On one hand, I can call lightning and save a trapped Dragon when I need to. On the other, I need reading glasses to read how many aspirins to take when my knee hurts. Despite being a foretold savior of my pantheon, nothing has spared me from my own mortal fate. I’m still aging, just like everyone else. With two tasks out of nine finished, and no one dying from our misadventures yet, I admit I’ve been feeling pretty good about myself. The Fates have finally stopped popping in on me, so I'm hoping I’m on the right track. And none of my family has stabbed me in the back this week. See? Good times. So I’m fine… mostly. Well, except my champion’s been a real pain to deal with lately. He’s sort of a dragon now and I’m afraid feeling special has gone to his head. Can anyone say entitlement issues? Anyone? I hope Cale gets a handle on his problems soon, because hey… I am the special one in our relationship. I’m the goddess. Yes. Okay. I admit tasks three and four aren’t looking like a whole lot of fun, but I trust Cale and I will get through them. I have to because failing means death. Everyone in my pantheon is still counting on me to stop the doomsday prophecy from coming true. All I can say is Gaia help me because I’m going to need all the help I get. AUTHOR NOTE: This is the second book in the Nine Heirs and a Spare series which has its roots in Greek mythology. You can count on the good guys winning some of their battles, but that’s the only promise I can make. As with all my work, there will be some good laughs along the way.

The Invention of the Countryside

Hunting, Walking and Ecology in English Literature, 1671–1831

By: Donna Landry

Today's hunting debate began in the eighteenth century, when the idea of the countryside was being invented through the imaginative displacement of agricultural production in favour of country sports and landscape tourism. Between the Game Act of 1671 and its repeal in 1831, writers on walking and hunting often held opposed views, but contributed equally to the origins of modern ecology, while sharing a commitment to trespass that preserved common rights in an era of growing privatization.

Enforcer

By: Caesar Campbell,Donna Campbell

Among members of the outlaw motorcycle clubs, Caesar Campbell is a legend. Former sergeant-at-arms and chief enforcer for the Comancheros, Caesar became the founding member and sergeant-at-arms of the Australian chapter of the Bandidos. He epitomised bikie culture - unbeatable in a fight, brutal in the extreme, fearing no one and nothing, and loyal until death. This is Caesar's story, from his recruitment into the Comancheros, to the savage split within the club that led to the foundation of the Bandidos and the bloody massacre at Milperra that resulted from it. This was the massacre that saw the death of two of Caesar's brothers, and resulted in four bullet wounds and a lengthy jail term for him. Never before has someone so respected in the bikie gangs opened a window on to their world. The fact that Caesar has been able to do so is a testament to his ruthlessness, his fearlessness and his reputation in the bikie community. Enforcer is a unique and captivating true crime story that will shock you with its raw violence, its brutality and its insights into an outlaw world.

Under a Firefly Moon

By: Donna Kauffman

An Amazon Best of the Year Selection Blue Hollow Falls may be a small Blue Ridge Mountain town, but it’s big on love—and second chances . . . When former barrel racer Cheyenne McCafferty left the circuit, she left her past behind too. Now, as part owner of Lavender Blue farm, she’s content rescuing and rehabbing horses, and growing a new business. She’s only got one regret: letting go of Wyatt Reed. When he professed his love, she was too young and foolish to know her heart. After that he disappeared. But when his beloved horse turns up on the auction block, Chey makes a bid and wins more than she bargained for . . . Chey believed she was ready to face Wyatt again, to explain herself. But seeing the man he’s become, she’s unsure. Gone is the quiet, gentle boy she knew. In his place is a rugged, confident adventurer who’s seen the world.

The Oil Factor

Protect Yourself-and Profit-from the Coming Energy Crisis

By: Stephen Leeb,Donna Leeb

A storm is coming, a turbulent new era in which oil prices will soar and inflation will sky-rocket. In this important new book, two leading financial strategists show you how to ride out the tempest while still capturing impressive investment returns... It's the oil, stupid. For the last thirty years, the price of oil has been the single most important determinant of the world economy. But now most geologists concur that the planet's supply of cheaply extractable oil, the traditional fuel that powers growth, will shortly be overtaken by demand. In the coming global turbulence, oil prices will top $100 a barrel, helping push inflation well into double digits and even posing a risk of intermittent deflation. The result will be an economy more rocky and a stock market more volatile than ever before. Fortunately, experts Stephen Leeb and Donna Leeb provide a road map that will guide you through the worst of it-and point the way to financial success. With the help of their "all season" Oil Indicator, they'll show you how to choose the right investments for any market environment, guiding you toward portfolios that prize real assets. Among the crucial lessons you'll learn: Why oil and natural gas stocks should be core holdings in every investor's portfolio Why a cautious buy-and-hold strategy is a sure money loser and why conventional "safe" stocks are really the riskiest Why gold may be on the verge of a historic bull run How the global oil wars make defense stocks a premium buy Where to find the surest bets in the burgeoning field of alternative energy How to profit from real estate without actually owning any. With its hands-on advice and savvy stock recommendations, which offer an alternative to staying in pre-inflation-era positions and risking portfolio meltdown, The Oil Factor promises to be the indispensable financial advice guide of the decade.

Invisible Stars

A Social History of Women in American Broadcasting

By: Donna Halper

Invisible Stars was the first book to recognize that women have always played an important part in American electronic media. The emphasis is on social history, as the author skillfully explains how the changing role of women in different eras influenced their participation in broadcasting. This is not just the story of radio stars or broadcast journalists, but a social history of women both on and off the air. Beginning in the early 1920s with the emergence of radio, the book chronicles the ambivalence toward women in broadcasting during the 1930s and 1940s, the gradual change in status of women in the 1950s and 1960s, the increased presence of women in broadcasting in the 1970s, and the successes of women in broadcasting in the 1980s and 1990s. The second edition is expanded to include the social and political changes that occurred in the 2000s, such as the growing number of women talk show hosts; changing attitudes about women in leadership roles in business; more about minority women in media; and women in sports and women sports announcers. The author addresses the question of whether women are in fact no longer invisible in electronic media. She provides an assessment of where progress for women (in society as well as broadcasting) can be seen, and where progress appears totally stalled.

The Little Friend

By: Donna Tartt

The sunlit rails gleamed like dark mercury, arteries branching out silver from the switch points; the old telegraph poles were shaggy with kudzu and Virginia creeper and, above them, rose the water tower, its surface all washed out by the sun. Harriet, cautiously, stepped towards it in the weedy clearing. Around and around it she walked, around the rusted metal legs. One day is never, ever discussed by the Cleve family. The day that nine-year-old Robin was found hanging by the neck from a tree in their front garden. Twelve years later the family are no nearer to uncovering the truth of what happened to him. Inspired by Houdini and Robert Louis Stevenson, twelve-year-old Harriet sets out to find her brother's murderer – and punish him. But what starts out as a child's game soon becomes a dangerous journey into the menacing underworld of a small Mississippi town.

ExMuse Me

By: Donna McDonald

ExMuse Me is a Paranormal Women's Fiction and Fantasy novel, and the latest action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. If Pan calls me a terrible Muse one more time, I’m going to flatten him into a Pan-cake. I may need the musical son of Hermes to help me solve tasks six and seven, but if the lecherous Satyr goes for the grope on me, I'm chopping off his fingers. It’s going to be hard to play that magical flute he loves without them. Pan hurt one of my Muse sisters once. He’s lucky to still be alive. Did I tell you about the robot I have to fight? Yes, robot. I don’t know what else to call him. Hephaestus, the God of Fire made Talos long ago as an unbeatable metal warrior to guard Crete. Now the robot with laser beam eyes serves as a guardian for Gaia. There’s not enough room for both of us on the Great Mother’s secret island and I'm not leaving until I'm done. This is only a fraction of why I have bigger problems than worrying about what chaos a lecherous Satyr is causing. Or what’s got Athena’s panties so twisted up. I haven’t killed the amnesiac version of Zeus yet. Actually, I kind of like him now. I'd be fine never restoring him. So far, I’m staying as upbeat as I can about things, but I’d be better if Cale stopped releasing his inner Dragon out into the world in the middle of the hardest challenge of the prophecy. Gaia’s gardener—who gender identifies as “we”—helps the way the Fates do. In other words, "they” weren’t inclined to provide me with any real information. I haven’t felt this alone in a very long time.

Two gifted, good-looking opera singers, from different cultures and opposite sides of the track in Texas, discover that falling in love is wonderful. But love may not be enough if it interferes with their dreams of success in the ruthlessly competitive world of opera. D.J. McKay's dream of singing in European opera houses clashes with his rich daddy's prejudices against such a "sissy" career; his obsession with beautiful Eva Villalobos doesn't sit well with his socialite mother, either. Meanwhile, Eva strives to help her poor family financially by achieving success on the stage. So what happens when their passion for each other thwarts their dreams? How can their relationship survive three-thousand miles of separation? Will their ambition to succeed kill the only true love they have ever known?

The Face Behind the Veil

The Extraordinary Lives of Muslim Women in America

By: Donna Gehrke - White

“Proud, defiant, brave, these are the Muslim women of America. Hear them roar!” —Asma Gull Hasan, author of Why I Am a Muslim For years, the image of the Muslim woman in America has been as mysterious as the face behind the veil. Is she garbed in the traditional hijab and chador? Is she subservient to a male-dominated culture and religion? Does she grocery shop, do her nails, go to the gym? “A superb attempt at helping us to discover the emerging identity of American Muslim women.” —Dr. Sayyid M. Syeed, Islamic Society of North America In this moving book, journalist Donna Gehrke-White provides a rare, revealing look into the hearts, minds, and everyday lives of Muslim women in America. Here, in their own words, are the many different voices of doctors, soccer moms, rebels, reformers, former political prisoners, survivors, and activists—women of faith, courage, hope, and change—all Muslims, all Americans. “Enlightening. . . . In their diversity, forthrightness, and honesty, the voices of these women ultimately sound more American than anything else—and therein lies the strength of this book.” —Library Journal
