Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has Anyone Seen My Reading Glasses? offers a unique and fresh approach to the subject of Baby Boomer retirement. First, it's written by a Baby Boomer who is actually retired. Second, the book is long on humor and personal anecdotes, and short on statistical analysis. In the book, Pat covers topics that are not normally seen in the table of contents of most retirement books, such as Timesharing, Cruising, and the Women's perspective of Baby Boomer retirement. No matter how serious the subject matter, like Financial Strategy, or Long Term Care Insurance, Pat's goal is to simultaneously educate and entertain his audience.

Book excerpt: Alexandria, Egypt / AD 391 - When the great temple of Serapis and its library annex are destroyed by the Christian mob, the Neoplatonist philosopher Hypatia becomes concerned the Great Library might suffer the same fate. She vows to save as much of the ancient knowledge as she can, especially certain telling documents concerning the origins of Christianity. But rather than merely hiding the heretical scrolls and codices in desert caves and hoping for the best, Hypatia contrives a far more ingenious plan. She sets up an elaborate sequence of burials, each of which is governed by actual ancient linguistic and geometrical riddles which must be solved to gain access. Only one steeped in Platonic mysticism would be capable of finding and unlocking the buried secrets. Oxford, England / June, 2006 - American Rhodes scholar Lex Thomasson is sent to Alexandria to aid a mysterious Vatican group known only as "The Commission." They require a specialist in ancient languages to solve a sequence of Greek Mystery puzzles in what soon becomes evident is Hypatia's ancient treasure hunt. The Oxford paleographer demonstrates his unique talents by unlocking the secrets along the trail. It does not take long, however, for him to become suspicious of the Commission's true motives, and the trail becomes a trial fraught with danger. The scene alternates between the two time periods. In both, assassins lurk and fanatics abound. And all along, religious Faith and historical Truth struggle for supremacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has had the frustrating experience of putting something down and then forgetting where.Although there are many factors that contribute to the ability to remember; it is also a simple fact that some people are better at remembering than others.Outside influences like stress, hormone problems, or even the side -effects of medications can make people absentminded and forgetful.But what if your memory is simply getting progressively worse? Are you frequently embarrassed at not being able to remember someone's name? Have you ever driven away from a petrol station and genuinely forgotten to pay? Are these episodes of memory loss driving you to despair?If so, then this book by Miller Caldwell is not only going to amuse and entertain you, but it will provide you with many serious tips and selfhelp exercises that will help you train your brain all over again!Mr Caldwell begins by explaining his own diagnosed condition called mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and the frustration he felt at having to retire early because of shortterm memory loss.He explains in simple terms how the human brain processes our thoughts and then stores them in preparation for recall.He explains how in most people, sharp thinking and reasoning skills are unaffected by shortterm memory decline and suggests that, if an older person learns information in the right way, he or she is just as likely to remember it as a younger counterpart.Each helpful tip and suggested exercise comes with an anecdote from Caldwell's many varied and fascinating life experiences, including how he almost married the wrong woman!Presented in a delightful and straightforward format, this book will be an invaluable companion to those of us who are just a little bit forgetful or, equally, to those in the early stages of dementia.Oh, and just in case you forget, the charming cover illustration of an elephant with a knot in its trunk will remind you to pick up a copy of your own.

Book excerpt: Ashley St. Helens realizes she’s lived a Cinderella story in this colorful crossover novel about a middle-American teen struggling with her self-esteem in a dysfunctional family. The story comes alive with funny fairytale twists, fresh character interpretations, emotionally resonant plot points, and laugh-out-loud allusions. The Souls of Her Feet can inspire conversations about responsibility, being passive or assertive, morality, waste, life choices, gender expression, and most importantly, cleaning house. Caven’s postmodern, self-aware emotional fantasy gives the fairy godmother a meaningful family relationship with Ashley’s lost parents. Inspired by a closeted gay family member who helped her find her own way, Caven’s drag queen uncle figure’s aesthetic sensibilities validate Ashley’s need for authenticity, and offer her a glamorous alternative to a world of tacky clutter and inane materialism. When she finally gets to the prom, wearing just the right shoes, the transformed Ashley finally feels seen. Soul-love and assisted self-rescue make her fairytale a reality. This new (4th) edition contains bonus materials such as essays by the main characters and songs from the forthcoming musical.
