I began this book with the express purpose of making it the definitive comparison of Secretariat and Man o' War. I feel that I've succeeded. By engaging the discipline of applied statistics to compare the legendary achievements of these two horses, I am being completely honest about my two primary audiences-the serious Thoroughbred racing fan and those desiring a clearer comparison of runner quality that only the lens of basic statistics can provide.The statistics in this book are basic and are completely explained as the text progresses. They are not difficult-provided one is motivated to compare Thoroughbreds on an objective rather than subjective level and to spend a modicum of extra time learning the minimal eight-grade-level computations the statistics require.I personally wish all readers well on their journey into what is possibly a groundbreaking area, thereby showing their willingness to accept a very modest challenge.

"Chapters of My Life" is a poetic expression of the many phases of life through which the author R. Michelle has traveled. Often referring to herself metaphorically, as a butterfly, with the stroke of a pen she has captured the realities as well as the fantasies of transformation; from the youthful larva through the restrictive cacoon into a brilliant, colorful, free creature. The words will drive you into a state of mesmerization. Come and observe the metamorphisis of one of God's wonderful, exhilerating creations.There is certain to be a word for you... Each piece is without question an original however,they are not those of the author. All come from the benefactor; the source. Through this transformation R. Michelle has learned that she is the essence of the source. It is not one purchased nor one acquired through classroom lessons, that is unless you consider living in this world to be the philosophical classroom. "My gift..." is to encourage, motivate, remind, initiate whatever it is that someone else has momentarily loss sight of. My gift is to bless others. This is my gift. Through my gift...it is my prayer that you will utilize your gift for its purpose. Indulge yourself in the gift..." but as you partake do not neglect to get only your portion. You see "the gift..." in its entirety is not for any one. There may be only one line for you. It may be two or three poems. Or there may be an entire section or chapter for you. In "My gift..." you will find nourishment created specifically for you, if you read with the Spirit not your mind.

The Birth of a New Consciousness and the Cycles of TimeThe book deals with the development of human consciousness and the God-image throughhuman history. We are at the threshold of a transitional period from the Age of Fishes (Pisces) to the Water-Bearer (Aquarius) Age. What is the role of humans in this New Age? What should we expect from this coming New Era? What are its symbols? What is the fate of human spirituality? What will be the new concepts of God and of religion? What will the new the God-image be? What will the role of organized religions be? When does the Water-Carrier Age start?This book attempts to answer these questions based on well researched sources complementedand endorsed by cosmology, archeology, depth psychology, religion, Near East studies, andmythology, among other scientific disciplines. The book also intends to clarify the epistemologicalterminology of the concepts "constellations" and "zodiacal ages" as well as the confusion created by some fundamentalist Protestant religious leaders and sensationalistic New Age writers, who have misinterpreted the signs of the transitional period as the end of the world. The truth is that there is no such thing as the end of the world, but the end of one world, the end of the Fishes' Era, and the commencing of a new chapter in human history called the Water-Carrier (Aquarian) dispensation.A correct comprehension of the shift of cosmic ages is extremely important for humankind.This book empowers humans to be prepared to confront the psychological upheavals that entail theshift of ages; it gives the reader an accurate perspective regarding the planetary transformations that are currently taking place, and offers hope and inspiration as we approach the Golden Age of Water-Bearer.

The Truppers use drones equipped with cameras and lasers to surveille and attack individuals they deem to be rebels. The Resistance is coordinated by Gerald Hopkins from his office in Wolstein's factory.

A second short story called "Unfinished" is about her mother who was killed by a drunk driver when her mother was forty five years of age. A beautiful life snuffed out prematurely.

Their spirit is lifted. She shares her life's experiences through her poetry. If Pat's poems can offer a bit of pleasure to any individual then the effort to put this book together and get it published will have been worth it all.

An 80-year-old woman who was once a famous movie star entices a 20-year-old newspaper reporter to help in the writing of her memoir, gradually enfolding him within a web of control and manipulation. If it sounds like Sunset Boulevard, there are indeed similarities in this fascinating true story. Patsy Ruth Miller was a silent movie star, best known as Esmeralda in the 1923 silent classic, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, opposite Lon Chaney. Jeffrey L. Carrier was a 20-year-old college student and part-time news reporter who fell under her spell. Beginning in 1984, It took four years to complete the book, and Carrier writes about that fascinating experience in clear and engaging prose as he describes happy days and heated conversations, a feeling of giddy delight and almost unbearable stress, sometimes enjoying being pampered and sometimes being rigidly controlled. It was often an uncomfortable experience, making him feel like a "kept man," and he made his escape when the book was finished. Dramatic moments (the sudden death of her husband, a serious angina attack) are juxtaposed with moments of pathos (Miss Miller's touching admission that she felt forgotten by Hollywood), making it a book that offers something to savor on every page. Patsy Ruth Miller's memoir was published in 1988 and has been delighting fans of silent films ever since. This book pulls back the curtain to reveal how that book was created and describe how two people - one an old and faded star and one a young and naïve reporter -- formed a very unusual friendship.

On October 15th, 1988, Kirk Gibson hit a walk off home run in game one of the World Series. That homer arguably sparked the Dodgers to a 4 games to 1 defeat of the heavily favored Oakland A's and a World Series championship. But whatever happened to that ball? This is before a bazillion cameras (and cell phones) were at the games, able to catch the flight of that ball from every angle. The single camera footage shows the fans converging in the right field pavilion seats as the ball clears the fence. After that the camera cuts to Gibson rounding second base doing the famous fist pump. Then the dugout erupts as players, led by manager Tommy Lasorda, rush onto the field. The camera never goes back to the stands. To this day, nobody knows what happened to the ball...until now.Experience a fictional account of what may have happened to one of the most famous home run balls ever hit in the history of the Major Leagues. Certainly, it was the most famous home run in Dodgers history. The story blurs the lines between fact and fiction and includes characters both real and imagined. It delves into player superstition, as baseball players are among the most superstitious folks on earth, and possibly hints at the supernatural. After all, if there is a God, he's probably a baseball fan.
