Book Description
Maybe, It's Just Me By: Pastor Nancy Advincola Greetings, everyone, and welcome to the memorable events in my life. In a celebratory manner, I'm giving tribute to the unsung heroes who contributed to the person I am today. After years of countless conversations and observations, I've come to the perception that most triumphs and occasional adversities in an adolescent's life are due to the initial affections that were exhibited or denied can be the primary reason for their demeanor. Furthermore, what has motivated me to write this book was that I yearn to honor those affectionate men and women that are no longer with me, but have in finitely touched my heart and blessed my life. Ergo, as a wife, mother, Pastor, my infinite mission is to tell the world how Jesus Christ has blessed my life.

Book Description
How many times do you feel unappreciated as a consumer? You work every day and might I say HARD FOR YOUR MONEY! I wonder if the people who work in the service industry would change their attitude, if they knew what consumers were thinking and feeling. Putting yourself in ?someone else's shoes? can certainly change your actions and this book will do just that. I don't think I was born with a passion to serve others, but there is something about being able to turn a negative situation into a positive one that gives me a sense of strength. Something about hearing the words ?Thank you? after I help someone that stirs up overwhelming feelings in my soul. Something about just being kind, offering pleasant words or services that brings me to a place of happiness and joy. And then there's the added value of increasing sales and helping to make the company I work for a ?consumers #1 choice? ?well that is just icing on the cake! This book is ALL ?reality read? (my own genre) and will make you smile, laugh but most of all make you think? Happy Reading!

A few days later, at recess, one of the boys (and fellow trumpet player) Callum tells Mila it’s his birthday, and asks her for a “birthday hug.” He’s just being friendly, isn’t he? And how can she say no? But Callum’s hug lasts a few seconds too long, and feels…weird. According to her friend, Zara, Mila is being immature and overreacting. Doesn’t she know what flirting looks like? But the boys don’t leave Mila alone. On the bus. In the halls. During band practice—the one place Mila could always escape.

Slowly, with the help of a fellow classmate, Mila learns how to stand her ground and how to respect others—and herself.

Book Description
The following pages contain a series of writings that were conjured up through the mind of a young girl who finds herself the victim of her own thoughts. Many questions remain unanswered. Why do these feelings come about? Am I this strange? Do other people my age have these thoughts? Why do I feel compelled to even print this? Why expose myself to potential ridicule or criticism? In these writings, there is hope that these and other questions will open a door of understanding and acceptance. An understanding, that maybe these thoughts are not unique to just the author and may possibly be helpful to someone with similar thoughts.

Book Description
*Soon to be the major motion picture Mickey17* The Martian meets Multiplicity in Edward Ashton's high concept science fiction thriller, in which Mickey7, an "expendable," refuses to let his replacement clone Mickey8 take his place. Dying isn’t any fun...but at least it’s a living. Mickey7 is an Expendable: a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize the ice world Niflheim. Whenever there’s a mission that’s too dangerous—even suicidal—the crew turns to Mickey. After one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of his memories intact. After six deaths, Mickey7 understands the terms of his deal...and why it was the only colonial position unfilled when he took it. On a fairly routine scouting mission, Mickey7 goes missing and is presumed dead. By the time he returns to the colony base, surprisingly helped back by native life, Mickey7’s fate has been sealed. There’s a new clone, Mickey8, reporting for Expendable duties. The idea of duplicate Expendables is universally loathed, and if caught, they will likely be thrown into the recycler for protein. Mickey7 must keep his double a secret from the rest of the colony. Meanwhile, life on Niflheim is getting worse. The atmosphere is unsuitable for humans, food is in short supply, and terraforming is going poorly. The native species are growing curious about their new neighbors, and that curiosity has Commander Marshall very afraid. Ultimately, the survival of both lifeforms will come down to Mickey7. That is, if he can just keep from dying for good.

Book Description
Following the success of his first book, the 2009 sleeper, "Why I Hate Straws," online humor columnist Barry Parham delivers again. Satire at its best! Includes the award-winning stories "Actuarial Family Theater" and "Perfect!" on Fads & Fashion... In the interest of full disclosure, I admit there's an extant 1970's photo of me and a date, posing for the obligatory parental pre-prom photo. My date was gorgeous, and sane. I, on the other hand, showed up with the hair of a medieval barber. I looked like an electrocuted yak. on St. Valentine's Day... Somehow, February got this reputation as a month of romance, maybe because it's cold. Plus, football's gone and we're stuck with the wildly popular sport of bowling, where you almost never get to see any serious violence. St. Valentine's Day contains vestiges of both early Christian and ancient Roman traditions, alongside other time-honored traditions, like hot-dish picnics and mass public executions. Holiday Factoid: "vestiges" is the classical Greek plural of "vest." on Typos... A local TV station was updating the community on snowstorm-based church closings. According to the typists at the station, there was a church somewhere called St. Martyer. Imagine - an entire religious sect dedicated to turning people into Ernest Borgnine.
