Hardback. Etat : Very Good. From TV broadcaster Lou Dobbs and award-winning author James O. Born comes Putin's Gambit, an international financial thriller about a KGB plot to use a series of terrorist attacks as cover for a Russian military incursion into Estonia. Adjusting to civilian life has not been easy for former Marine Derek Walsh. As he navigates a brutal job on Wall Street and a challenging romance, he wonders if he could be doing more with his life. When an inexplicable $200 million dollar money transfer is made on his computer, he is thrust into the world of international terror, and the global economy is knocked off its hinges. On the other side of the Atlantic, a dangerous alliance has formed. Radical Islamists and Russian extremists have set the wheels in motion for Russia to assert its power in Europe. The US President has proven to be weak on foreign policy, the military is stretched too thin, and Vladimir Putin judges this to be the time for Russia to regain its Soviet Empire. Troops mass on the Estonian border, waiting for the order to move. The FBI believes Walsh was involved in the money transfer, and a group of Russians are intent on killing him. As New Yorkers are outraged upon learning of the illegal money transfer, and the world economy crashes after a series of terrorist attacks, Walsh and his Marine buddies are the only ones that can keep the world from spinning off its axis.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Do you want thicker, fuller, more lustrous hair? How about a bigger bustline? A six-pack of abs? Are you troubled by messy stains, garden pests, or an inexplicable desire to look like Richard Simmons? If you've answered "Yes!" to any of these questions, we can't really help you. But you might be amused by As Seen on TV - a treasure trove of all the gadgets, wizardry, and time-saving devices that have been on sale through TV in the United States. Here are real-life, behind-the-scenes stories of the Veg-O-Matic, K-Tel Records, Ginsu Knives, the Chia-Pet, the Thighmaster, Time-Life Books, The Clapper, The Greak Wok of China, and many, many others. Featured throughout are more than 100 colour photographs of all the goodies, plus expert analysis of the products and interviews with celebrity pitchmen like Ron Popeil (inventor of GLH System 9, which is basically spray paint "hair in a can"). To research this project, authors Lou Harry and Sam Stall spared no expense. They attended the taping of an infomercial. They became hooked on phonics. They listened to audio tapes of Zamphir, Master of the Pan Flute, and they watched videotapes of Charlton Heston explaining the Bible. As Seen on TV is an inspiration to entrepreneurs of all ages - and a wacky nostalgia trip for couch potatoes everywhere. Call now - operators are standing by.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The author takes the reader on an incredible, tear jerking, journey of a misguided little girl so consumed with self- hate, misinformation, and distrust that it catapulted her into a life filled with unbelievable challenges. Repeated rejections, major disappointments and misunderstandings contributed to distrust of everyone she would encounter throughout her life, including her family. In her search for love, fulfillment and acceptance, the author depicts a life turned upside down through a confusing series of curves and detours destined to destroy her and anyone in her path, until she found the right recipe for healing which comes with forgiveness of self and others. Forgiveness is presented as the key to putting the past in perspective, finding a way to emerge from the depths of despair, then, shifting the focus to overcoming addictions, moving forward, and living a healthy, God directed, victorious life. This book, an inspirational, lifeline for anyone trying to find themselves, quickly captures and holds the reader's attention. The author demonstrates ways for individuals to conquer their fears and fight, perhaps for the first time in their lives for well-deserved, overdue new beginnings. The book reminds us to let, no man or woman hinder us from achieving our ultimate goal(s).…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Poetry. Sensuous, sensual, brave and insistent, Sanelli's work shows the enclosures we tend provide no refuge. Cruelty, violation, aging or sudden death aren't invaders; they've been under our feet all along: 'the world, suddenly, too over-exposed/ to see, too piercing to hear.' This gardener is.unprotected by pose. Her poems lead us out of self-consciousness into the risk of presence and truth. - Jody Aliesan. I came away from her poems resolved to look more intimately at life and with a fervent desire to write down my own observations. That alone is the highest compliment I can pay this excellent poet - Laurie Wagner Buyer.…
