The characters involved in the activities at the Riverview Animal Shelter return in this third book of the series. Rehabilitating a battle-scarred, fierce former fighting dog, Champ, a Pit Bull Terrier, presents a major challenge. A different challenge is faced by a woman who must decide whether or not the man with whom she has fallen in love has indeed been rehabilitated himself, after extended incarceration in his youth.The lessons in Champ relate to training dogs, certainly, and rehabilitating Pit Bull fighting dogs in particular, but they extend to the rehabilitation of people who have erred, who have paid, and who have been changed, a theme that Helen Bemis started in the first book, Understanding Sassie, concerning a woman who was fired for misbehavior from her job; Helen has extended this question to marrying an ex-con in Understanding Champ.Besides offering entertainment, this book's intent is, in part, to guide its readers to no longer fear breeds like the Pit Bull Terrier that have exaggerated reputations for aggression. Certainly, one should choose a breed that reflects one's own energy level. (Helen has a Great Dane.) There are many dogs who will provide companionship and protection if treated with love, and their owners will be richly rewarded for taking them into their lives.From the author: "In my many years of teaching dog obedience, I have discovered that not all humans understand what their dog is trying to tell them. I've enjoyed my opportunities to teach classes on dog communication (the body language of dogs). My goal has always been to reach a wider audience, which publishing my books will allow. "I've always enjoyed telling stories. I have discovered that stories can help us to remember and learn valuable information. I hope the reader will find these stories entertaining and informative."This is the third in this multi-book series, following Understanding Sassie and Understanding Sassie, II. Readers can enjoy it without having read the first two. All three novels combine upbeat personal stories with insights about training dogs with affection and love.

Changing the Conversation about Race in America<br><br>If we are ever to find a cure for America’s racial dysfunction, it’s not enough to know what has happened; we must also understand why. Why have people of European descent oppressed their racial “other,” and why have we never been able to move beyond the resulting racial hierarchy? In White as Sin public theologian Scott Garber asks and answers the why question, offering prophetic insight and practical solutions.White as Sin identifies a moral flaw embedded in the very soul of white identity, showing how that defect enables an entire litany of racial ills. Moreover, this book explains the mindset that sustains a sinful solidarity between yesterday and today. It takes us on an epic journey into the origins of whiteness. It explores the twisted recesses of racial injustice. It lays bare our own hearts and our own hypocrisies.Ultimately, however, White as Sin: A New Paradigm for Racial Healing is just that—a formula for hope and healing. The author outlines a transformational process designed to change not just what we do but who we are, one that seeks to right the wrongs of the past and lay the foundation for a beloved community.

When Kathryn Gordon met the owners of the Mill twenty years ago, they had recently opened their hotel, and guests were already asking for a cookbook as a souvenir of this unique, beautiful location in the completely remote French countryside. Gordon offered to write that book, which became Le Moulin Brégeon, Le Petit Moulin of the Loire Valley: Introduction to the French Lifestyle and a Collection of Recipes. Gordon, classically trained in French cooking and an instructor at a leading culinary school, leads an annual course to cook at the Mill and visit with farmers and artisan food producers. From this close relationship to many chefs, farmers and artisans in the Loire Valley, Gordon has produced easy-to-follow recipes featuring fresh and seasonal produce and basic cooking techniques and flavored with herbs and spices versus lots of salt.Gordon was named a Top Ten Pastry Chef of the United States in 2017 by Dessert Professional Magazine and is a member of Les Dames d'Escoffier. Through Le Moulin Brégeon, Le Petit Moulin of the Loire Valley, Gordon shares the French enjoyment of food and the spirit of a sustained community carrying on cooking traditions, eating local ingredients and joy in preparing simple, fresh meals.

This compelling book includes 186 case studies of patients who were admitted to the Delaware State Hospital at Farnhurst between 1894 and 1920. Until now, their stories have remained hidden away, lost, forgotten, inaccessible. This book changes that by providing a detailed look at the lives of a wide variety of patients. Farnhurst is usually thought of as having been simply a "mental hospital" or "lunatic asylum." In reality, the institution cared for people with many different conditions ranging from "congenital imbeciles," to traumatic and acquired brain injuries, syphilis, epilepsy, delusions, schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder, Huntington's disease, acute intermittent porphyria, deafness, blindness, age-related senility, pregnancy-related conditions, substance abuse disorders, etc. - at a time when there were few or no other options for care and treatment. An important resource for reducing the stigma associated with being diagnosed with a mental illness or spending time in a mental institution, this book shows that every patient came from somewhere and had meaningful lives before, during, and after their time at the Delaware State Hospital. They were real individuals, each with their own story. Come meet them.

In the summer of 1929, a few months before the Great Depression, a drama started to unfold in the quaint little village of Chagrin Falls, Ohio-a drama that would impact the lives of many people for nearly a century. The story begins with a teenager, Katherine Jones, and a horseman from the East, Kenneth Palmer. They soon married, opening the curtains on a dysfunctional marriage.Act one characterizes the couple's lifestyle, which included drinking, infidelity and domestic abuse. Even with two young sons, the pattern of behavior continued. The horse training business often took them to Westbury, New York. It was there that Katherine Palmer became infatuated with a young unmarried man whose family owned the horses as well as a tavern. Act one draws to a close with an impulsive affair and an unexpected pregnancy.Act two brought Gary into the drama. Born in Chagrin Falls in 1940 at his maternal grandmother's home with no birth certificate; Gary's life was a catalyst for change. In the spring of 1947, like a slamming screen door, the Palmer family dissolved. The stage door opened for Gary, setting the scene for abandonment, poverty, a children's home, and foster care.The final act concludes Gary's tale of resiliency and character, striving for a life of his own. A search for identity in the face of adversity is the backdrop for this amazing story. Overcoming the odds at every stage of his life made Gary the strong and loving person he became.

"Repent or perish" is the leading theme of this publication that incorporates explanations of the perilous effects of sin - primarily grave, mortal or deadly sins.The Divine Redeemer is clear in severity while warning to turn from deadly sins or die: "But, unless you repent you will all perish..." (Luke 13:3).Through sinning, the sinner is maltreating his or her entire nature: violating the will of God engraved in one's conscience, abusing the intellect by acting irrationally, ill-treating the will - being opposed to the perfect will of God, and breaking in defiance immutable divine laws. Therefore, mortal sins are rightly and justifiably called "an infinite evil" since they are perpetrated against the infinite goodness or benevolence of God.When there is disobedience of divine law, instead of truth, there is falsehood; instead of mercy, there is cruelty or moral apathy; instead of justice, there is injustice; instead of purity, there is impurity, that is, instead of perfections of God, there are accusing opposites of divine perfections - forming monstrous disfigurement of the soul - disfigurement of God's image and likeness - divine image and likeness God granted to each human person. When one is away from God, one is away from divine truth, true love, true freedom, from soundness of judgment and reason, from Sanctifying Grace, and from true self - one is imprisoned in illusory world of one's own making, in slavery of the spirit of evil.Thus, those who gravely offend God through a mortal sin, and are lacking remorse - refusing to repent commit spiritual self-slaughter, separating themselves willfully and entirely from God, and hence condemning themselves to Hell.Included materials demonstrate a purposeful wordy warfare with the modern moral ills in a secularized culture, surveying volitional choices that present grave spiritual danger. Through the elucidation of the major consequences of sin, the most urgent need for repentance and continual conversion is recurrently stressed.Repetitive tactics are used by which the author appears to be sermonizing to self and others, hammering the messages of import from different angles and reentries, yet the overriding effort of the work is not only to expound the ravages of sin, but more importantly, to lead those who are in bondage of sin to full cooperation with the liberating and all-healing power of divine grace.Dorothy K. Kardas, Psy.D., Th.D.

Mortality may be declining in people with heart disease, but more and more are experiencing a long lead-up to clinical disease, without an appropriate intervention. The toxicity of our environmental, social, and cultural worlds creates pathophysiologic disturbances such as obesity, diabetes, and, in some cases, heart disease. In Vascular Biology for the Clinician, Mark Houston, MD, MS, MSc, along with Joseph Lamb, MD, and Anita Hays, PhD, suggests to doctors ways to diagnosis cardiovascular diseases at an earlier stage and treat their underlying causes.Houston is board-certified in hypertension, internal medicine, and anti-aging medicine. He runs an active practice and has authored nineteen books and 172 articles on hypertension and cardiovascular diseases and served as editor or reviewer for medical journals.

It is the general consensus that in the history of motion pictures, the year 1939 was undoubtedly Hollywood's greatest triumph during its Golden Era. However, much of the same winning confluence of circumstances and events that made 1939 such a monumental and productive year for Hollywood continued into 1940. Despite this fact, the overwhelming and enduring popularity of the movies of 1939 have often overshadowed the importance of cinema's superlative productions, creative strides and technical advances realized in 1940. The viewing public, as in earlier years, were given the opportunity to experience "the total movie experience" which meant that the bill consisted of at least one full length feature motion picture, and if not, than a short feature film, but always a cartoon and a serial along with upcoming attractions. Not only did the same seismic synergy of talent, artistic vision, opportunity, risk and pure luck that made 1939 such a prolific year for Hollywood continue mightily into 1940, but in a good number of instances, 1940's harvest of remarkable cinematic triumphs surpassed 1939's fabled cornucopia of celluloid treasures. As America freed itself from the shackles of economic misery, the rest of the world was struggling against the brutality and inhumanity of a world war raging in Europe, Asia and the Pacific. With this as a backdrop, millions of movie goers across the country looked for any form of escapism in their never-ending quest to forget the harsh realities of their dismal and disheartened existence. Hollywood was more than willing to satisfy this hunger, at least for a brief moment in time, by providing them with a stream of uplifting, spirited and entertaining films.

Iord is I ored somewhere down the line in steel, in iron. Iord is I spoke, I speak, I am complete. I think as a treat. My spokes have become sharp as I bark for I am nothing but a dog, the husky of the Laird, on a jog across landmasses as they pass, I am have become a bard of the hard coming on marred. My books are dissertation pieces proving the words we choose have come from our hometowns and not the Latin. As I research the evidence builds of a hijacking in meaning, in phonetic clones, and subverted innuendo. I trace history, I trace man, I trace psychology and I trace science as a complete logical combine piece. I might be tracing time.

This is the city tourists don't see and most New Yorkers - the ones with jobs, the ones with money, the ones who own homes - don't even know about. It's the city where the hookers and pimps and strippers live and survive, where the predators exist and prey on the rest of us and on each other, the city where violence is commonplace and nearly always present. It's midtown Manhattan where visitors come to see shows and eat in fancy restaurants and sleep in expensive hotels but it's also where the furnished rooms and SRO's are, where the chicken hawks work the streets and docks, where weapons are always close to hand and the police write off murders and assaults. It's the world of John Board and John Puddle and others like them. This is book number three of twelve. The first, the Man With The Pointy Stick, introduced John Puddle. The second, John Board, focused on Board, this one continues the story. If you liked or were intrigued by the first two you'll like this as well.

Poetry is a lost art form that is not highly visible in our society except for cowboy poets or when put to music as songs. Many people do not know how to react to poetry; much of poetry does not rhyme and is closer to descriptive writing.Well, this book is filled with rhyming poetry and positive feelings and visions found in the desert country around Moab, Utah.Reviews of my words have always been encouraging and many have said these straight talking poems are the only poetry they can truly understand and they like it.I hope you will like it too.Down through the ages it has been the poet that captures the moments the others cannot. It is the poet and poetry that is remembered and quoted.Enjoy now, maybe for the first time, my poetry of nature.Rocky Brougham
