Cameo listened carefully as his girlfriend's stepfather started to teach him the ways of the Hawaiian culture, but he didn't want to eat with his hands. They always smelled like rifle cleaning solution. He was a Marine. So begins the tale of Cameo's transition from the disciplined life of a Marine to the laid-back lifestyle of Hawaii. After a long tour of duty, making the switch to civilian life was a daunting task to Cameo, but his future wife, Leilani, eased him into a completely different culture than the one he had come from, of spit-shined boots, crisp fatigues and screaming Gunnery Sergeants. Cameo begins to live comfortably, instead, in a world where time is irrelevant and the giving of one's heart to friends and family is the core of life. Where Time Has No Meaning is the sexy, amusing memoir of one soldier's successful entry into civilian life and of the love of the Hawaiian woman and family who helped him to develop a new life full of opportunity.

Universal peace and justice depend upon the attainment of a humanistic, democratic, rationalistic and secular global integration through the immediate protection and ultimate liberation of all the subjected and endangered peoples of the world.At a time when the African-American and Mexican-American peoples were demanding their share in the American economic and political life, the U.S. government's criminal and racist response to their deep-rooted and long-lasting grievances consisted, among other things, in creating a direct [deadly] conduit from the barrios and ghettoes to the battlefields of Vietnam. The conservative American governing upper-class managed to shape the Selective Service law so as to stifle these despised ethnic minorities, who dared to overtly ask for their individuals' and peoples' rights, by sending a disproportionately large number of their draft-age men to die in the jungles of Vietnam. By doing so, the U.S. government displaced the violent class and racial conflict into the battlefields of Southeast Asia. Indeed, while African Americans and Chicanos succeeded to show the grave shortcomings of the U.S. system of government, the Vietnam War was used by the U.S. supremacist ruling upper-class to divert public attention from the serious political and economic issues raised by the integrationist and nationalist leaders of both ethnic minorities in such a way as to prevent them from getting access to the privileges of the wealthy American society.N.B. The book ends with a postscript that deals with the controversial Iraq War and the long-lasting despotic Arab/Islamic tyranny in both the Middle East that is ethnically non-Arab and Amazigh North Africa. The postscript focuses, as well, on the righteous struggle of democratic secular Kabylia--a Western Mediterranean Amazigh nation--for self-determination to free itself from the totalitarian, enslaving and genocidal Arab-Islamic domination embodied by the thug regime of Algiers.

A must-read for those who enjoy descending into the human psyche. -Anita Jean Blute, author of Survivor by ChoiceDescription1835 - Toil and TriumphLife on the Wyoming prairie was difficult in 1835, when the Jenkins family traveled from Kentucky by wagon train with their infant son, Jake. They settled on a piece of land along the Little Laramie River considered good for raising cattle and lived the simple life of prairie folk that only allowed for the basics, which could be found in abundant supply. 1850 - Love and DesertionJake grew into a strong, handsome young man with good morals and manners that mirrored his parents. At the age of eighteen, he married a pretty blonde named Molly, and two years later they were blessed with a baby daughter. She was named Kathleen, which fondly converted into Little Kate by her friends and family. Little Kate loved her mother dearly and tried hard to imitate the noble values she recognized in her. She grew up healthy and happy in a nurturing well-balanced environment until her destiny delivered a variety of harsh blows. Waves of fear that swelled into panic engulfed her emotional state and darkened her thoughts as she endured unforgettable devastating pain. By the age of fourteen, these heart wrenching calamities had left a gaping hole where she once had peace of mind, causing lovely Little Kate to convert into the unhappy adult, Kathleen. 1875 - Abuse and DisparagementKathleen became overwhelmed with responsibilities that filled her emotional emptiness. She dreamt of a better life, but finally gave in to her fate, letting herself become caught up in an existence without ambition, purpose, or passion. Then when she least expected it, someone new entered the picture, flattering and enticing her. Caught off guard, Kathleen was easily baited into submission. Unaware she had met evil face to face masked by a charade of eloquent deceit, Kathleen permitted it to take possession of her. She pivoted downward into a miserable existence of endless suffering. Destruction, murder, and chaos took over, as this demon in disguise laid waste to anything she had deemed good and worth cherishing. 1882 - Imminent DamnationAs time passed, a wall of hopelessness grew impenetrable around her. Kathleen''s pending doom could be felt coming closer with each frightening day.

She knew she was their only salvation, and had to make the correct choices, or all would be lost. Could Kathleen save those she fought so hard to protect? Would she recognize this evil''s demonic intentions and her preplanned fate? Would she survive, or finally be butchered and left to fester among the rubble of a barbaric massacre?

For centuries, the mythical story of the Greek Trojan Horse has become a metaphor for the covert infiltration of an enemy's organization. In this action-packed spy thriller, FBI Agent Brad Tilsdale and his special counter-intelligence team work tirelessly to prevent foreign enemies from penetrating the U.S. government. An ex-Navy SEAL, Tilsdale heads a group of agents that confront the Soviet KGB and Chinese MSS intelligence services, Al-Qaeda terrorists, and - most deadly of all - spies working secretly within the U.S. government. Tilsdale constantly finds himself hobbled by timid bureaucrats, who avoid making difficult decisions until it is too late, while opportunities evaporate. When he decides to "go rogue" and operate outside of the system, he walks a fine line with his cautious superiors, who would rather sacrifice him than expose themselves to risk. While Tilsdale operates on the periphery of tumultuous global events, the story rushes from one national crisis to the next. On a parallel track, the Trojan Horse conspirators move their plot inexorably forward. Through sheer determination and personal courage, Tilsdale attempts to protect America - often from itself. From a deadly knife-fight in the murky back-streets of Hong Kong, through dangerous anti-terrorist raids, to the equally dangerous marble corridors of Washington power-brokers, Tilsdale weaves and dodges his way to solving the greatest mystery of his career: Who is Pegasus, and what is he plotting to do? Following a muddled trail of lies, buried evidence, murdered witnesses, and forged documents, Tilsdale and his FBI partner finally discover the truth - but too late to save Air Force One from sabotage. From communication intercepts captured by the National Security Agency, he pieces together, in Sherlock Holmes fashion, a puzzle of frightening dimensions and shocking implications. Learning that his own superior within the Bureau is a Russian spy, Tilsdale unleashes a ruthless effort to stop f

Carlos Martinez, self-proclaimed third generation wetback descendant, has earned engineering and business degrees at Golden West University. He first enters the realty profession in New Jersey, functioning with business respectability as Arthur Van Porter. Discouraged with eastern pollution and culture, he yearns to return to the West. The move is accelerated by the realization that some of his realty transactions have inadvertently been facilitated with large amounts of drug money. Threats of deeper involvement by the drug kingpin and the assignment to launder a briefcase full of drug money inspire a hasty departure. The gangster and his thugs are soon in full pursuit for the cash and revenge. Resuming his boyhood name, Carlos travels about the West of his youth in a quest for a new livelihood and a safe haven from the bad guys. He discovers the Community of Love in the Front Range of the Rockies, a product of Utopian idealism and early Hippy culture. It has matured into a village with a strong environment ethic and responsible social customs. The small Victorian houses indicate a lack of interest for material exhibition of wealth; the emphasis is on the advanced elements of civilized culture. The unique structure of health and welfare is defended by a close-knit attitude of preservation. Carlos finds this pleasant and soon establishes a niche in the Saloon and begins an active life caring for the land and forest. His hard-earned membership entitles him to some unusual perks of Community culture and the potential affection of Nancy in nearby Paradise Valley. Carlos joins the Community activity in broadening its environmental attention to the threat to the planet of global warming and climate change. He quickly progresses to a leadership role in establishing Community as a model village in responsible energy use and adaptation - and the formidable protection of Community.
