"Life of the Eagle"
By Richard Evans
Arche Books Publishing (2004)Not being a big history buff, I wasn't sure what the outcome would be reading a book based on history. I was in for a big surprise. Richard Evans presents his character and the events of the book in a way that not only do you not realize you're "learning about history as you read" you fall into the history and become a part of it. I think anyone and everyone from school age kids to the senior generation would enjoy this book.While “Life of the Eagle” is a book of history, it is more about a story. It tells of history in the making fr (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Conscious Courage - Turning Everyday Challenges into Opportunities Review |
| |
| In Conscious Courage®, Maureen Stearns states that courage is a deliberate decision to act or think or be, regardless of your emotions and halting thoughts, an actual force that is felt from within that enables you to say “yes!” to what you want and “no!” to what you don’t want.

| Article Title :: Overruled! Nancy Grace Lacks Evidence |
| |
| During the brief moments I sat at Barnes and Noble to read what great minds had written to inspire, I came across a book with an eye-catching title, “Objection” by Nancy Grace. When I began reading the introduction I was heart-felt for Nancy who had lost her fiancé, Keith. I totally understood her reasons for pursuing her career as a legal prosecutor. In her book "Objection", she vehemently expressed her disgust for defense attorneys, stating that their compensatory ways of comprising what they did was their motto “I’m just doing my job.” Nancy had cited various attorneys of good record who had won high profile cases and gave an epiphany of how they persuade juries to obscure e (read full article) |

The Storyteller, Volume I“Armando! Armando!” I heard Benito screaming as the wind and madness increased
inside the jail cell. I looked to the bench and saw his arm reaching out to me and
gesturing for me to join him under the bench.I didn’t go to him; instead, I looked up at the window in time to see a flash of light,
and I could have sworn I saw a human figure leaning over the window’s bars,
looking at me from outside. I thought it could not be possible, as the window was
probably nine feet high and that strong wind would have made it hard for someone
