    Screaming staircases! Skeletons in the basement! Mysterious apparitions that appear, vanish then reappear! Things that go bump in the night! Hijacked stagecoaches! Dancing miners, and escaping into the past are just SOME of the things contained in the first three books involving a group of adventurous youngsters, ages eleven to thirteen, and spans almost fifteen months. The children share adventures that culminate with Book Four, where the old mansion, the center of all three preceding novels, is dealt a fate similar to that of the house in Edgar Allen Poe's work, The Fall of the House of Usher. In Book #3, Barbara is transported through a time portal back to 1945. While there, she changes an event, and as a consequence exposes a concurrent history that is far worse than anyone can imagine. Upon her return to her real time she finds she must go back to 1945 and reverse her actions. But in doing so, she discovers she cannot calmly change what she did and return to 1972, the year of our story. First she must travel back in time to 1863, to Gettysburg, and undo an event that caused this skewed history to first develop. Find out about these mysteries and discover what secret lies behind the Mason's Door.Book #1-The Mystery of the Silver Bottles Book #2-The Mystery of Skeleton CaveBook #3-The Mystery of the Screaming Staircase Book #4-The Secret Behind the Mason's Door Biographical Sketch Rich's first memory was living in South Fork, a small burg along the south fork of the Eel River in Northern California which, because of the disastrous winter rains of 1963-64, now exists only in those memories. Sometime before South Fork was wiped from the maps the family moved to Fairfax where they lived until the summer of '52. From there they moved to Atwater where certain job opportunities afforded a better way of life. After a six year obligation to the US Army, and attending college, he along with his wife started teaching in Christian Schools in California; the first being Valley Christian Academy in Santa Maria. That was 1972. It was then these mysteries first took shape, and he owes it all to eight little second graders who somehow found their way into the pages of these stories where four of them became main characters. These 'little ones' are now in their late forties and have probably forgotten their second grade teacher, but he will never forget them. It is to those funny little kids these stories are dedicated.

    Life is the pursuit of happiness, something that is ordained not by men, but bestowed by God. Our path to hope is our purpose, something we all must discover if we are to truly live up to our potential as human beings. This book addresses one of the most pressing concerns facing our country today: immigration and cultural diversity.One is the problem and the other is the solution.As a citizen of the world, I will use my experiences to show how cultural diversity is not to be feared, but used to benefit us all. In difficult economic times, native citizens will naturally look for scapegoats; and immigrants, both legal and illegal, fit the bill.But if we are to move forward, we need to find ways to allow immigrants to freely contribute to our society in order to solve the problems we accuse them of causing. If we embrace the cultural diversity rather than fight it, we will succeed. In the global economy, we cannot afford to discount such a valuable resource as the many who leave their homes for a better life, fueled by their own path to hope.Immigration isn''t the problem, it''s the answer!Even when unemployment is high, millions of jobs remain unfilledForty-nine percent of businesses find it hard to fill critical jobs, 15 percent above the global average.By 2018, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics jobs won''t be filled even if every American graduate with an advanced degree finds employment. Immigrants bring critical skillsConstruction will add 1.8 million jobs by 2020. Sixty percent of Latino immigrants arrive with a sophisticated knowledge of the trade. Twenty percent of scientists and engineers in the United States are foreign-born.Immigrants are 13 percent of the US population but make up 28 percent of in-home health workers. Immigrants have higher work force participation rates than those born in the United States.The United States must attract and retain human capitalImmigration caps force twenty thousand American-educated students to leave the United States every year.As the US population ages, unfilled jobs will hinder growthBy 2030, the United States will need to add 25 million workers to the labor force to sustain current growth.Without immigrants, the United States will not have enough new workers to support retirees. More than one-third of the US population growth is attributed to new immigrants. By 2050, 93 percent of growth in the US working-age population will be due to immigrants and their children.Seventy-five percent of the foreign-born labor force is in the vital 25-54-year-old category-higher than their US-born counterparts.Multilingual immigrants boost tradeEvery one hundred H1-B visas create 183 jobs for American-born workers. Every one hundred H2-B visas create 464 additional jobs.

    The Comic Book Bandit is a bright, healthy, mischievous child named Jay. Mentored by his brilliant older brother, Ross, the bandit pulls off his first comic book heist at the age of four. As events unfold, he gradually finds himself to be alone out in a world where the only significant authority over his behavior turns out to be him and his fledgling and relatively ignorant conscience. Being an unattended child may be scary, but it is also immensely exciting. There is a rush that comes with boundless liberty. Not entirely free, but with stolen moments of freedom to explore life on his own, out and about in the pulsating city of Chicago, where the choices were breathtaking, our hero is captured by the undeniable realization, "I can do whatever I want so long as I don''t get caught." The stories take place after the Second World War. Yes, the bandit faces the obstacles of grown-ups but cleverly discovers the slippery power of the believable lie. He creates a secret life of his own and shares an acceptable version with those he must account to: his mother, his father, his brother, his teachers, and his friends. Getting away with stuff starts to become second nature, at least until and when he creates a lie so big, with burden so weighty, its effects are at times overwhelming. The culmination of his struggles with the Great Bar Mitzvah Caper will have the reader riveted to each and every page. How could he? How does he? Will he or won''t he? Those are the questions. Come along for the ride. I promise you a child whose ingenious lies make him unlike any child you may have encountered. And beyond all that, he is a great little kid.

    An account of my dark experiences from the inside of the supernatural world. The deception was so subtle that I always believed I was doing Gods work. It is easy to become involved in the cults, but the angels of light do not give you an easy way out. My struggle to be free was influenced by God, who in His mercy, put people in my path who could help me escape the darkness that I was ensnared in.

The account begins with Brucyes early years and gradually extends through how the couple first met on a blind date that was engineered by one of their mothers mutual friend; through their courtship, early marriage, the birth and early development of their two children, the husbands (authors) professional veterinary school curriculum experiences leading to an earned doctorate and, later, his graduate school training, surgical residency, and a second residency earned him a degree in comparative pathology. Later, his career and some notable experiences in private exotic (nondomestic animal) veterinary practice and their life together, as they traveled widely as he served as a popular visiting clinical professor of comparative medicine and pathobiology at numerous North American, European, and Asian colleges and universities. This story is further leavened by relating details of numerous innovative and outrageously humorous theme parties and other events during nearly thirty years of the couples summer recreational boating in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, their planning and collaboration during the establishment of their organic farm and home located in Northern Californias Mendocino County, and the wifes eventual development of dementiawhich created many challenges. In the latter parts of the book, the author provides a lengthy and useful guide for others contemplating service or who are already serving as a caregiver for a loved one, including numerous specific suggestions and sources for items and services that he found of benefit to all parties while he was involved in being the designated caregiver for his much-loved spouse and best friend. The essentiality of gaining temporary respite from the responsibility as a caregiver is also discussed, as are some external pitfalls that are common to this situation.

    Alley is a young alligator who goes for her first dental checkup before she has a dental “problem.” The book attempts to present some of the basic things a child may see or experience in a very positive way. The book also presents terms that are commonly used by a pediatric dentist that are less intimidating to a child. Words such as “tooth counter” or “Mr. Thirsty” are substituted for “dental probe” or “dental suction.” Alley Alligator’s Awesome Smile attempts to instill a desire in children to be excited to care for their smile at an early age and reduce anxiety for future dental care.

    The ’80s of self-indulgence and “It’s all about me” has turned us into “Nobody understands what I am going through” and “Nobody cares.” There is power in the memoirs on the bookshelves today, with such authors as Dave Pelzer, Carol Burnett, Mackenzie Phillips, Ashley Judd, and Shania Twain. These authors are giving us positive nourishment and starting conversations. We are reconnecting with our neighbors across the street as well as across the globe, with two common threads—we are all human beings and we are not alone. These books allow a reader to open up at their own pace. The memoirs of today contain everything, from abandonment to the taboo. Still, these books are all basically one person talking to another, with the exception you know exactly what the subject is about. The books give you a voice that inspires you to take the next step to be able to talk to your family and friends.I have spent my life with some of the right people, but mostly all the wrong people, hoping they could show me I am a worthy human being. In this story, I have brought together all my challenges and teachers that are now my allies to tell the story of my life. In those seconds when you have looked soul to soul with someone to fight for your worth and your heart pounds and your mouth is dry, you can only hope that in those fleeting seconds they have looked deep enough to see you. We all want to have our voices heard; sometimes we just need a little help.

    What war on drugs? Is our government complicit in the continued proliferation of the illegal drug trade in our nation? This supposed war on drugs has been ongoing for better than one hundred years with no apparent conclusion in sight. Perhaps we should entertain a new strategy to achieve ultimate victory in this never-ending conflict.Our criminal court system provides numerous avenues for offenders to eschew responsibility for their misdeeds. Overburdened criminal courts rely heavily upon “deal making” as the primary means to adjudicate their caseloads. And in the rare instance when a case goes to trial, the primary objective of the attorneys is to win the contest, attainment of justice be damned.The prison system has become the de facto long-term mental health facility in our country. Our recidivism rate is obscene, and we spend much more money incarcerating our youth than educating our youth.Speaking of education, the educational standards in our nation have devolved to a point where the educational achievement level of students in most of the other industrial nations far exceeds American students. And there is an irrefutable relationship between graduation rates, academic achievement, and index crime.Issues regarding the use of force by police officers still plague our country. In minority communities, the divide between law enforcement officers and the citizenry they serve is ever expanding.This book does more than illustrate the various inequities and deficiencies of our Criminal Justice System. It provides tangible solutions for such. This text shall ruffle the feathers of liberals and conservatives alike...oh darn! The sole objective of this book is to advocate for a Criminal Justice System that is effective, and that serves each of identically.

    These poems cover the many different aspects of human life. Many were written to evoke people's emotions, to bring out their feelings. While some poems hold a dark chapter in one person's life, another poem holds the joy another person has felt. But all in all, these poems are the story of life.
