Everyone thinks Echo Simmons is crazy, but being The Ghost Host isn't just a YouTube hoax like people think. It's the only way to control the ghosts haunting her...at least until the FBI shows up asking questions. The first eighteen years of Echo Simmons' life have been less than ideal. On more than one occasion her parents have considered committing her. They don't believe she sees ghosts or that they harass her on a daily basis. So when a rogue ghost begins tormenting her, they're the last people she's going to tell. Her best friends Holden and Zara are doing their best to help, but ghost attacks are only the beginning of Echo's problems. Handling the ghosts by giving them a voice on YouTube through her webshow has been her saving grace-even if her parents think it's all a hoax-but that gets a little complicated when the ghost of Madeline Crew reveals a little too much about her previous life and the FBI shows up at her door wanting to know how she gained access to long-buried government secrets. It just keeps getting worse from there. Madeline's message to her great grandson sparks a strange connection between Echo and Malachi, which leads to Georgia, secrets, mistakes, love, lies, and life changing revelations.

This book makes a bold attempt at highlighting the societal ills prevalent in the third world countries. It also attempts to proffer solutions to the numerous problems confronting the masses: massive corruption, armed robbery, cultism, suppression and oppression, marginalization, ethnic cleansing, abuse of human rights and man's inhumanity to man. Above all, the book advocates dialogue as a strategy to achieving lasting peace and justice.

The year is 1987. America is clawing its way out of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Washington pursues illegal and unpopular wars in Central America. In the wealthy desert playground of Palm Springs, storefronts that once catered to the rich sit empty and shuttered. Crowds of bored rich teenagers in designer clothing entertain themselves with expensive cars and cheap drugs, while those less fortunate haunt darkened street corners, offering themselves for sale. This is the country to which war correspondent Peter Brandt returns. Physically and mentally scarred by the horrors he's covered, Peter comes home to bury his ex-wife, TV reporter Robin Anderson, only to discover she had been brutally murdered. With the local police unwilling to investigate her death, Peter sets out with retired cop Matt Banyon to expose Robin's killer. They uncover a shadowy world of anti-communists, drug smugglers, and corrupt politicians, and lay bare old wounds-including Peter's deep guilt over his failed marriage. In a final, cliff-hanging struggle, Peter faces his own fears-and death in a dark and empty place.

This book contains a compilation of various teachings such as presenting the correct image of Christ, being a Glorious body for God, being stable in the Lord. The church must come to realize that we are not of this world but are only visiting ambassadors from Heaven (II Cor. 5:20). The Body of Christ cannot accurately portray Christ to people if it is not representing Christ in the correct manner within its own body. So I challenge you to put these teaching to the test, to determine if your life properly portrays the character of the Living Christ. May God bless you for taking the time to read these teachings, and I pray that He makes your true purpose known unto you.

"I can be of no use here, Carry. What am I good for? Why, I could not earn money enough to pay for my own food, even if we knew anyone who would help me to get a clerkship. I am too young for it yet. I would rather go before the mast than take a place in a shop. I am too young even to enlist. I know just about as much as other boys at school, and I certainly have no talent anyway, as far as I can see at present. I can sail a boat, and I won the swimming prize a month ago, and the sergeant who gives us lessons in single-stick and boxing says that he considers me his best pupil with the gloves, but all these things put together would not bring me in sixpence a week. I don't want to go away, and nothing would induce me to do so if I could be of the slightest use to you here. But can I be of any use? What is there for me to look forward to if I stay? I am sure that you would be always worrying over me if I did get some sort of situation that you would know father and mother would not have liked to see me in, and would seem to offer no chance for the future, whereas if I went out there it would not matter what I did, and anything I earned I could send home to you."

Nathan Coppedge, previously the author of Intermediate Insights and One-Page-Classics, and who has also wrote pseudonymously as Master Kuo (The Lessons of the Master), here presents his translation of the Tao Te Ching, the authority of which depends on multiple previously existing translations. Considerable insight and additional thought has been acquired for this formidable text, one of the greatest of the classics of ancient literature.

The fourth edition of this book has been written to clean up some of the poorly worded text in the first three editions and to show important Bible verses rather than just refer to them. An effort has also been made to convert previously used first person speech with more formal third person speech. In looking at the first chapter of the epistle of James, this book considers authorship, the date that the epistle was written, and the basis for its acceptance into the biblical canon. With a strong focus on the Greek language, the goal has also been to perform good exegesis on the original text. Among the topics examined are enduring temptation, receiving a crown of life, living one's faith every day, and recognizing pure and undefiled religion. So James wrote the first part of his epistle to saints, who as brethren would face temptations over and over and who would sometimes fail to live up to the hope that was within them. But he had taught in verse five that a person can ask the Lord for wisdom to overcome his or her trials, tribulations, and tempting experiences. He had taught in verse twelve that a crown of life awaits those saints who endure temptation. In verses thirteen through fifteen, he had taught that a person's own lustful nature often gives birth to the very sins that ensnare him or her. He had taught in verse eighteen that every saint of God is born of God and that His Word has been placed in him or her by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. All people will sometimes fail. But if a person has received Christ as savior, then he or she will have the continued help of the Comforter as a personal guide in this life. So as James would say, let each saint of God always practice the wise teachings of the scriptures and hold fast to his or her faith in Christ. In verse twenty-seven, he had concluded chapter one by encouraging the beloved brethren to have a watchful eye towards helping those around them in need and by doing their best to live right. Temptations come. But by the grace of God, each person can live for the Lord through all of them each and every day of his or her life. So to God be the glory for those great things that He has done in the hearts and lives of those who truly love Him. There is one note, however, to be made with respect to the organization of this text. Something that the reader of this text might find useful is boxes that show the different passages that are being referenced at the times and in the places where they are being referenced. That way, he or she will not have to jump all over the place or get into or out of the scriptures to locate a particular reference. Hopefully that inclusion will help the reader in trying to understand the various events and to also put them into the right context. So it is hoped that that will make this book easier to read and that the Lord will receive the praise, honor, and glory that He rightfully deserves.

Only food, sleep, thinking, and writing.
