Book Description
Three weeks before her first space launch, astronaut Mia Gray is involved in a car accident. Her injuries not only keep her from the mission but also mean she may not ever be able to do her job again. Mia is devastated, but she refuses to give up on her lifelong desire to see Earth from space. Mia discovers that there are other options besides working at NASA, ones where her limitations might not be an issue. Leaving her husband and old life behind, she moves across the country to live with her mother and find another way to travel to space. Mia doesn’t care that the alternatives are dangerous. She will do anything to reach her goal. A new program places Mia in a long, perilous simulation run by a questionable organization. During the grueling ordeal, Mia will be forced to decide which is more important: her dream or her life.

Book Description
The Verbal Behavior (VB) approach is a form of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), that is based on B.F. Skinner's analysis of verbal behavior and works particularly well with children with minimal or no speech abilities. In this book Dr. Mary Lynch Barbera draws on her own experiences as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and also as a parent of a child with autism to explain VB and how to use it. This step-by-step guide provides an abundance of information about how to help children develop better language and speaking skills, and also explains how to teach non-vocal children to use sign language. An entire chapter focuses on ways to reduce problem behavior, and there is also useful information on teaching toileting and other important self-help skills, that would benefit any child. This book will enable parents and professionals unfamiliar with the principles of ABA and VB to get started immediately using the Verbal Behavior approach to teach children with autism and related disorders.

The gift of the psychic is something that we all possess naturally -- but very few of us know how to use. This book follows the experiences of Mia Dolan and her student, Roz, through the psychic training process that leads to the awakening of Roz's own gift and Mia's amazing stories and revelations about the spirit world.

Mia reveals her own psychic tools and techniques, and teaches her student to open up to what Mia has already discovered deep within herself. * Mia shows us how to develop intuition and look into the future, how to see and read auras, how to give a relationship reading, how to meet your guide, and the skills of telepathy and clairvoyance. * Along the way, Mia reveals more of her fascinating experiences of ghosts, spirits and even some terrifying confrontations with evil demons. We are taken on ghost-busts and astral travel to the home of her spirit guide. * She answers profound questions about life, death and psychic phenomena: - What is it like to die? - How can we still communicate with loved ones aft
