The Story Of A Man
Marvin A. Hayes
About the Book
The Story Of A Man is a collection of poems that express emotions of love, pain, laughter, wisdom and self-reflection. Poetry has always been a passion of mine and it later became the avenue to express the memory of the comings and goings of my existence. This is the reason why I chose the title, “”The Story Of A Man.”” Many of the poems were written during my years in undergrad. My college years came and went; however years later I contemplated publishing them. It was then I decided to begin the journey to publish the story of my life.When thinking about the book cover and what I wanted to express to the reader, I chose to use my drawing of Muhammad Ali. Ali is one of my favourite hero’s and a poet himself. In fact the first poem in the book is about Muhammad Ali, a man with an amazing story of struggle and triumph. I selected his picture in hope of attracting the attention of readers who understand each person has an individual story. Just like Ali we all too may experience struggles, pain, and triumph. This book also includes photos that show that my life has been very full.
The photos in the book include pictures of my wife of 50yrs. Mrs. Geraldine Elaine Robinson Hayes, and our legacy which includes my two older children and our five children which makes for 30 grandchildren. I hope that each reader enjoys the poems and pictures and it encourages them to embrace the story of their own life.

and Other Quirky Tales
Daniel Wolf
About the Book
“But Is He Jewish? is divided into three sections. The first section, “Quirky Tales,” consists of fifty short stories. Although each touches upon some aspect of Jewish life and culture, they deal with such universal themes as love, mortality, courage, coming of age, and the importance of family.The following section, “Mishegas” (Yiddish for craziness), includes stand-up comedy routines, the philosophical musings of a fictitious rabbi, advice for daily living (“A Guide for the Confused”), “Eighty Questions to Ponder,” and nonsensical poetry (“Quit”).ho
The final section, “Animals with Attitudes”, features four humorous mini-plays with animals (elephants, lions, housecats, and rhinoceroses) taking on Jewish characteristics and even speaking some Yiddish (translations provided).
In all, But Is He Jewish? provides a delightful reading experience, as it addresses a variety of topics in a mostly humorous but always human manner.”

Twenty First Century Crusader
William Gabriel
About the Book
What most people need to understand is that the Holy Land was in military occupation by the Romans during Christ’s time. Not far from where he grew up had been a town of about 10,000 inhabitants that threw out the tax collectors, much like what happened in Falujah. The Romans responded by sending in the legion and killing every mature man, not just those that hurt the tax collectors. They then sold all women and children into slavery.
So it was his teachings to tell us how to live under occupation. I lead off with the Beatitudes because of this, and then go into present day tools on how to engender peaceful resolution of situations involving conflict. I have put forth the basic building blocks of activities and messaging that can bring a society towards tranquility. As a Special Forces soldier I learned how important that cultural peace was needed for a vibrant society. For thirty years I have been developing the tools of ‘Psychodynamics’ represented in Asimov’s Foundation series. This work delves into the mechanics of creating a peaceful, more prosperous society. Questions of how many peacekeepers, messaging, developing culturally effective tools, and social dynamics of these differing cultures are addressed. All these facets must be organized and readied before an invasion occurs so as to have an ‘exit strategy’.
Also in this work are the repercussions and calculations of social change due to migration, natural disasters, and nation state competition. New applications of the Cognitive Therapy model are developed to get into the mindset of the people of a culture. How to guide them into a more interactive element in the global environment. This is not the psychology of an individual, but of cultural movements. How did the internet take off so suddenly, or why did the economic bottom fall out from a nation’s economy? The fact that societies are more prosperous when all elements (men, women, etc.) of society compete on equal footing in the job market. How do insurgencies develop? Will the subculture compete economically or pick up the rifle and fight? All these are psychodynamic questions and this work presents the building blocks to form and understand these things.
So I ask you to read past the first chapter and start on the second if you are not into the Bible. This work is designed for all people so that they can formulate an effective campaign to bring about the social change they want. The first chapter shows that classical Rome was not easy to live under, much like any occupation. The second through to the end gives modern day tools to develop your own psychodynamic plan. It is in the format of an easy to read textbook. I hope and pray that it gives you insight into the opportunities that psychodynamic theory presents.About the Author
William Gabriel was born in Los Angeles, California in 1958. He first read Asimov’s Foundation trilogy when he was seventeen and started to search for methods of applying psychodynamic thought. At twenty seven he first started writing science fiction and reached the million word mark in 1998. At thirty one he tried out for and qualified as a Special Forces soldier in 1990 and spent the next decade serving on A-Teams and was a peacekeeper in Haiti in 1996. He went on to serve in B-Team and C-Team elements. He studied International Studies at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2010 and moved back to California where he graduated from the University of California at Riverside on the Chancellor’s Honor List with a degree in Global Studies. After three decades of writing he published his first science fiction work in 2013. He now has three books in print: “Beth’s Song”, “Twenty First Century Crusader”, and “Women in Wars of the Future”. -
Looking at Picasso, Altering Cézanne
Peter Moak
About the Author
This book describes a visual approach to art. It stands in contrast to the current linguistic approach. It is about looking at art rather than reading about art. Looking at hundreds of works of art from the whole history of art demonstrates that every work of art needs to be seen in particular way, the way it was seen when it was made. We do not see the world directly. We see pictures of the world in our head. These are ten basic ways for looking at art based on the ways we look at the pictures in our head. These ten ways when applied to works of art from the Stone Age to the present reveal patterns in the ways of looking at art throughout history. They also reveal neglected masterpieces, famous works misidentified and how the misunderstood work of certain famous artist should be seen.About the Author
I have been an art historian for forty-five years. I have a Masters degree from New York University and a Doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania. I taught briefly at Villanova University and the University oh Hampshire, but most of my life has been devoted to understanding the visual order that underlies a work of art. In addition to working in libraries I traveled extensively here in Europe to see works first hand. Now that my travelling days are overdue to age and health I am concentrating on writing about what I have learned and discovered. I want to pass the information on to future generations and hopefully to inspire others to see art as it was made to be seen. To see The Parthenon, the Works of Michelangelo, Cézanne, Matisse and Picasso as they were made to be seen is very much worth the effort. -

About the Author
On Wednesday, January 16th, 1929, my dad, who was pastor of a local church in the city of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, had scheduled a workday at the church. As he was getting ready to leave the house on this frozen, icy day, he picked up his hammer and headed to the door of our house, when my mom said in a tone not usually heard in her voice, “You’re not going to work at the church today, our baby is coming!”My brother who had heard the conversation exclaimed, “that’s just another egg”. He was responsible for taking care of the chickens our family relied on for breakfast and other meals.
Our family moved often, because of his ministry, and I attended eight different schools. I graduated from Isaac Litton High School on one night and married W. C. Langford, from Jackson, Tennessee, the next. I met my future husband at a District Council in Milan, Tennessee as I played the piano for my dad who was District Superintendent. I was at the ripe old age of sixteen. I travelled over the entire state of Tennessee. I committed to myself that I would never marry a preacher.
God had a different plan.

The Anointing Exposes the Deeds of the Flesh
Merits Henry
About the Book
The Time Has Come To Receive As a people birthed with purpose, God has reserved the best for the last to display his tangible anointing power to a dying world. The anointing is that divine inducement from above, and not a desire of emotional feelings. It comes not with years of experience, status and articulates. But rather it is given by laying aside every weight and sin that easily besets us. He has placed a “”now power”” (Ephesians 3:20) on the inside of you to defeat your adversary. This power is actually on the inside of you right now. This is the beginning of miracles concerning you – just believe! Discovering the anointing on your life; you will realize that it an inheritance given to serve and not to be served.
I believe we are at a prophetic crossroad in history to witness a people with a new birth – destined to walk in a double portion of his spirit, just as Elisha received a double portion of Elijah’s spirit. God has saved us, the best, for the last. Therefore, we must desire nothing less than the anointing that destroys yokes of bondage, opens blind eyes, straightens crippled limbs, mends broken homes and deliver every captive. God’s Word promises that there will be an overflow, or a double portion, of wine and oil (or anointing), coming your way in one month. That’s a double blessing! This double portion is waiting for you, it is part of your inheritance through Christ Jesus. It will show you how to walk in the anointing of the Holy Spirit and do greater works than that of the risen Messiah. This is your hour of power! This is your day to receive your double portion. After reading this book your life should never be the same again. It is my desire that readers obtain spiritual experiences and insights that will enlarge their spiritual vision for tomorrow.About the Author
Merits is the author of three books. “The Anointing Exposes the Deeds of the Flesh” and “The Spiritual Benefits of Praise” and Worship, and “Love Reveals the Heart of God,” which is one of the most inspirational books ever written about the sovereign and eternal love of God.
He is the founder of Worship Conference Ministries, Canada, Cayman Islands and Jamaica. He is a licensed counselor as well as a Certified Chaplain. He has a passion for teaching people about Christ and help them to walk in the freedom that God has ordained.
With a voice of hope and encouragement, he travels extensively preaching and teaching the Word of God.

The Chickadees
Poems
Hongvan Nguyen
About the Book
It was divided into three main parts in which the first part is about author’s life in the United State, the second is about thoughts and philosophical ideas, and the third part is about author’s life back in her homeland, Vietnam. Each part contains poems that describe events, situations and emotions or feelings accompanied to each of the poem. They include daily life’s small events such as going to shop, to school and to church to big events such as life-changing experiences of living under the North Vietnam’s communist regime. Emotions range from happy feelings due to pleasant living conditions in the US to sad and upset or angry feelings due to the poorness and oppressions resulted in bad economic conditions due to the ruling dictatorship of the communists. Somewhere in between the two opposite part I and III is part II in which there is a change in thoughts and ideas because it concentrates on some philosophy-related ideas and conception-related ideas. In short, author wants to show activities in two different life’s settings, one in her native country, Vietnam, and the other in her new, secondary country, the US.About the Author

Then and Now
A Series Of Biographical Essays Portraying Changes In Culture Over Nearly A Century
Jo Ellen Oliver
About the Book
Sexual mores have changed drastically in my 84 years of life, as well as attitudes about family life, race and religion. I hope to explore changes in attitudes over my life span. This is not a research paper. I taught freshman English in two universities, where the students were required to document carefully. I don’t want to do that anymore. I may get a date or a name wrong. Some names I changed on purpose, to avoid embarrassing the children or grandchildren of people who behaved badly. Instead of factual research, I want to explore emotions and attitudes as they changed over the years. Why are emotions so important? We have just held a very divisive election. We are divided by politics and social mores. Yes, it is better if our emotions are grounded in actual facts; our recent election proved how dangerous feelings are when fed by lies, so I have tried to be as factual as my memory allows, but in the end, our behavior is shaped by how we feel.

An Appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court & A Proposal to Our President
Revised Edition
Pia Fields
About the Book
This book reports a real tragedy in the U.S. Testator Sydney Fields was born in 1918, one day after his father died from the Spanish Flu. Doctor Groginsky, who risked his life to help the family at their home, signed both a death and a birth certificate. One hundred years later, without witnesses, video or audiotape, will drafter Curtain composed an affidavit related to Sydney’s will and then dismissed it in the court hearing day. Judge Melle still, based on Curtain’s affidavit, distributed the 96-year-old blind man’s ten-million-dollar assets to five of his niece-in-laws, and left his autistic son in welfare.About the Author
Justice seems to never come because our lawmakers tend to defend each other and prefer to change nothing. Being mistreated, author Pia still is concerned about how to reduce the U.S government’s debt. She suggests: Government should cooperate with civilizations and manufacturers, provide free shelters, food, medical service and low-pay jobs to people who need help. Use the benefits we provide to substitute the government’s expenses on welfare, home care, health care, social security and wages. She believes we should use both the capitalist and socialist concepts to manage our world. We should give up market economics’ competition and consumption, but enrich people’s lives by friendships and entertainments and eventually eliminate wars between these two systems. -
The Handmaiden’s Diary
Bob Williston
About the Book
What does it take to live a pious life? For the sober, devout, naive young Edith it meant foregoing the love of her life … and she entered into an unhappy and disastrous marriage to a dashing, narcissistic reprobate whom her pastor considered a worthily righteous mate. Her only compensation for her miserable situation were her two children who worshiped her.For her timid young daughter, Amber, it meant foregoing a comforting married life for a celibate pastoral life in the community of her mother’s reportedly enlightened and judicious childhood pastor. But Amber kept a diary, and when her Pandora’s diary was abruptly opened one day, no one but she and Edith found freedom from the evils hidden beneath the pastoral exhibition of piety.
