Since September 11, 2001, many people have been asking, What is Islam? Is it a peaceful religion? Who was Muhammad? What is the Koran? How does the Koran differ from the Bible? What, if anything, does the Bible have to say about events like the extremist attacks on America and across the world? Differences: The Bible and the Koran was written to give readers a brief introduction to the Bible and the Koran. It is a topical compilation of passages from the two books, offering insights into the teachings of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Written in layman's language with an easy-to-read style, Differences: The Bible and the Koran does not explore the many possible interpretations and various doctrinal theories of the two religions.

Third Saturday in October tells the story of each game. From Wallace Wade, Frank Thomas, Red"" Drew, Paul ""Bear"" Bryant, Ray Perkins, Bill Curry, Gene Stallings, and Mike Dubose of Alabama, to Robert Neyland, Bowden Wyatt, Doug Dickey, Bill Battle, Johnny Majors, and Phil Fulmer of Tennessee, the game has been directed by legendary coaches and played by heroic young men who have risen to greatness on the third Saturday in October.Third Saturday in October is filled with memories and reflections of players, coaches, reporters, sportscasters, and fans.

The cuisine is fun and light, the mood is joyful, and the setting is intimate as she presents food-and food for thought-for the unique period of life when the children are grown and gone and it's just the two of you once again. Woven throughout are essays that offer positive insight and advice for this transitional time in life and for redefining yourself, such as "You're Your Pet's Mom Now", "No Need to Shut the Bedroom Door," "The Kids are Coming!" "Who Are You?" "Those Wold Whistles Aren't For You" "All the Cookies Are Yours." The Empty Nest Cookbook marries old-style family cooking with the more sophisticated culinary yens of a working couple. In doing so, it approaches the subject on three levels suited to the empty nester: cooking for two, managing family visits, and entertaining guests.
