Book Description
"Chasing the Carrot" began in 1993 when, again, my world was folding in against me. Part 1 is when my guide, John, met me in the garden to show me what life in the fifth dimension would look like. He also showed me what it will take to get to the fifth dimension. Take time to picture what you would see in the garden. In part two, I go through where my journey has led me. See where your life was in those times. Part three comes when Trump is elected as president. As we wait for the hammer to come down, Trump's plan to drain the swamp has hit a few bumps in the road. We will continue to chase the carrot of freedom until we have the final victory. Our world has been run by rich oligarchs for centuries that have held us back and controlled us. John informed me about the collective consciousness and how this is our way out of the matrix we now live within. It wasn't until two years ago when Donald Trump was elected president that I finally saw a conclusion to this book that I started so long ago. QAnon or "Q" was introduced on the internet in October 2017 to keep the alliance/patriots informed. When the arrests of the Deep State finally happen, we will be charged with creating a whole new paradigm. Feel free to read the last page first, united we win!

Book Description
From the beginning of time, there has been a struggle between men and women in their relationships and marriages. The differences between men and women, in particularly with regard to how they both act, think, and behave, is obvious to anyone. Unfortunately, in our modern world, circumstances have evolved to a point where most men, and especially for men of any wealth, power, or fame, are being unjustly vilified by women of all ages and are being blamed for every injustice that any woman has either actually endured or believes in her own mind that she has suffered. In the justice system in the United States of America, an accused individual is supposed to be considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. That is no longer the case. Men who are accused by any woman of some impropriety toward them are instantly assumed to be guilty, and their reputations, careers, financial well-being, marriages, and public status are being destroyed on a daily basis. Any accusation against any man, no matter how long ago their transgressions supposedly took place, are grounds for dragging him through the media and press in order to destroy him. The definitions of transgressions by men toward women have also been redefined by women in our society so that the mere act of speaking to any woman may now be declared a criminal act. Over the last several years, there has been the evolution of the Me Too movement by women which is allegedly intended to "empower" women to "speak out against" men who have "done them wrong" at any point in time that they can remember. In recent times, men of power and fame in our country have been accused of all sorts of evil and criminal actions against "unsuspecting and innocent" women of all ages. This book is intended for the men of the world, especially to those living in the United States, to be made aware of what they are risking in their personal and professional lives when dealing with any woman. Men need to be aware that relationships with women in our modern society are fraught with personal risk, pitfalls, and potential disaster, including the loss of their freedom. All men, from the teenage years to those of middle and old age, need to be aware of what can easily happen to them at the hands of the women that they let into their lives. Men need to understand how women can easily manipulate them and unjustly accuse them of all sorts of things. Men need to understand that any women whom they choose to become involved with are not the cute, little, innocent and naive "flowers" that they would like to believe that they are. All women become involved with men to achieve their own agenda. The "fairy tale" of living happily ever after with any woman is a "man trap."

Book Description
WAR? DEATH AND DESTRUCTION? VIOLENCE, HATRED, INEXPRESSIBLE GRIEF? PEOPLES PITTED AGAINST EACH OTHER, TO THE DEATH? WHY ON EARTH SHOULD I WANT TO READ ABOUT IT? THERE’S ENOUGH IN THE MEDIA EVERY DAY, SURELY? YES: BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT. The stories in this Anthology aim to give a vivid insight, through a fascinating mixture of history, reminiscence and fiction, into life during WWII: for those at the front, those left behind, the young at school, the old in the twilight of their years, parents, lovers, spouses, families, colleagues; Britons, Germans, Irish, Kenyans, French, eastern Europeans and Americans (plus the odd ‘undesirable alien’!). These pages see householders struggling to maintain a semblance of normality; young men reluctant to volunteer; soldiers determined to win; acts of generosity, acts of cowardice. In these pages, there is violence – impossible to avoid in an Anthology dedicated to the memory of war – but there is also humour and romance, suspense and emotion, heroism and daring. Even the paranormal puts in an appearance (as one might say). The action is set variously in France, Britain, Eire, Kenya, Russia, Poland ... You are guaranteed hours of stimulation, enjoyment and fruitful relaxation with a book devoted to one of the defining events of our times. STARE INTO THE PAST WITH THE EYES OF THOSE GRIPPED BY ITS DRAMA. All the stories have been especially written for this Anthology by writers experienced in their field. Pneuma Springs is proud to present it to commemorate seventy years after the end of hostilities.

Book Description
Bad things happen in "the Pit," a notorious crime-infested ghetto in downtown Miami. Michael Berish's experiences as a Miami policeman for twenty-two years (thirteen of which were in the REAL Miami Vice) serve as fuel for these exciting, intense stories about life as a cop in a tough part of a big city. Not just another collection of rehashed police stories with shootouts, car chases, and damsels in distress, Reflections from the Pit, contains individual, quirky, off-center characters. The stories focus on basic character flaws while dealing with social issues of the day: racism, hangings from police cruisers, sexism, affirmative action, prejudice, drug-dealing cops and corruption, homelessness, segregation, and police brutality. Berish uses his intimate knowledge of "the Pit" to bring these tales alive. This book pulls no punches; it shows you the dark side of police work: the good, the bad and the ugly (warts and all), both the humor and the tragedy. These reflections, covering more than one hundred years of history, give one pause for thought and a peek into the human swamp of life in "the Pit." WEBSITE: www.realmiamivice.com

Book Description
Jazz: Research and Pedagogy is the third edition of an annotated bibliography to books, recordings, videos, and websites in the field of jazz. Since the publication of the 2nd edition in 1995, the quantity and quality of books on jazz research, performance, and teaching materials have increased. Although the 1995 book was the most comprehensive annotated jazz bibliography published to that date, several books on research, performance, and teaching materials were omitted. In addition, given the proliferation of new books in all jazz areas since 1995, the need for a new, comprehensive, and annotated reference book on jazz is apparent. Multiply indexed, this book will serve as an excellent tool for librarians, researchers, and scholars in sorting through the massive amount of new material that has appeared in the field over the last decade.

Book Description
In a world driven by ambition, success, and the relentless pursuit of happiness, we often find ourselves feeling like donkeys chasing a carrot dangled in front of our noses. This metaphor captures the essence of our daily lives, as we strive to attain the promises and rewards that society lays before us. We become ensnared in a cycle of craving, forever reaching for that elusive carrot, hoping it will bring us fulfillment and contentment. This book, "Chasing Carrots: Navigating the Allure and Pressure of Societal Expectations," is an exploration of the myriad ways in which society shapes our desires, aspirations, and behaviors. It delves into the subtle and not-so-subtle forces that drive us to pursue certain goals, often at the expense of our authentic selves. We live in a world where consumerism, social media validation, and the fear of missing out have become ubiquitous. The pressure to conform to cultural norms, achieve ever-higher levels of education, and climb the corporate ladder can be overwhelming. We are bombarded with messages that tell us happiness lies in material possessions, external validation, and the constant pursuit of success. But is this really the path to fulfillment? Are we truly content when we're constantly striving for more, when we're forever chasing that next carrot, whether it's a promotion, a new gadget, or a fleeting moment of social media fame? In the pages that follow, we will embark on a journey to uncover the reasons why society exerts such a powerful influence over our lives. We will examine the subtle ways in which societal expectations shape our thoughts, decisions, and actions. Through stories, research, and reflection, we will seek to understand the impact of these forces on our well-being and sense of self. Chasing Carrots" is not a book that offers quick fixes or easy answers. Instead, it invites you to question the narratives that surround us and encourages you to find your own path to a more authentic and meaningful life. It is a call to awareness, a reminder that we have the power to choose our own values, desires, and aspirations. As we embark on this journey together, let us remember that the pursuit of happiness should not be reduced to a relentless chase after an ever-receding carrot. It should be a quest for a life that reflects our deepest values, fosters genuine connections, and nourishes our inner selves. May this book serve as a guide, a source of reflection, and a catalyst for change as we navigate the complexities of modern society and strive to live lives that are truly our own. With curiosity and compassion, Charles Nehme
