Paperback. Etat : Good. A devastating inside look at the dark side of Congress as revealed by one of its own No wonder Congressman X wants to remain anonymous for fear of retribution. His admissions are deeply disturbing. . . Most of my colleagues are dishonest career politicians who revel in the power and special-interest money that's lavished upon them. My main job is to keep my job, to get reelected. It takes precedence over everything. Voters are incredibly ignorant and know little about our form of government and how it works. It's far easier than you think to manipulate a nation of naive, self-absorbed sheep who crave instant gratification. Fundraising is so time consuming I seldom read any bills I vote on. Like many of my colleagues, I don't know how the legislation will be implemented, or what it'll cost. We spend money we don't have and blithely mortgage the future with a wink and a nod. Screw the next generation. It's about getting credit now, lookin' good for the upcoming election.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The Tenney Quilt is a tender and enlightening rendering of small-town life of the 1928 Midwestern woman. Haagenson pieces together this deeply personal account of the men and women of Tenney around an heirloom quilt with a history of its own. In 1928, Tenney's Town Hall sought funds for a cook stove in order to accommodate the social events and gathering of the town's residents. Several women initiated a project to raise the money: a signature quilt would be made, ten cents collected for each signature and piece of quilt added to the whole. What ensued was a gathering together of 530 people, their lives, their values, and a preservation of these documented in a hand-crafted chronicle of Tenney history. Haagenson uses the quilt to highlight the disparate lives of German, Scottish, and Norwegian immigrants working as school teachers, storekeepers, homemakers, nurses, factory workers, and seamstresses and how they come together to share their time and talents for their community. Chapter by chapter, thoughtful commentary on the limitations placed on these women due to time and place is interspersed between accounts of the women's honest and willful commitment to their families and each other. Schoolyard reminiscings, familiar rituals of church socials, and exciting historical firsts offer light to the hardships of daily life in home and vocation. The Tenney Quilt is a warm and engaging read, a snapshot of the smallest Minnesota town illustrating both where we have come from and how far we have come.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. You're a doctor and you know a lot about medicine. But do you know anything about the real world? Doctors learn a lot in medical school, but not enough.

Dr. Harbin wrote this book to fill the gap: to help doctors deal with the business aspects of medicine, help doctors in training learn how to evaluate opportunities for the future, and assist practicing doctors in dealing with the questions arising every day and when planning for the future.…

Thirty-three years of precious moments, family events, and relationships were stolen due to this insidious disease. She was sick mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually until the day God guided her to a program of recovery. Sami believes in destiny and it was God who brought her to Alcoholics Anonymous. In return she is convinced A brought her to the personal relationship she has with God. While in the rooms she experienced her first, of many, spiritual experiences with God and it was astounding, and she knew it was fate. She, at last, reached the beginning of her journey to a happy, joyous, and free life. From the very beginning she knew the program only works if you work it, and that you must go to any length to remain sober. Most importantly she learned she is not alone, because through her discovery there are millions of others like her--admitted alcoholics, yet others who have not made it to the rooms. Journaling has been a life line to her soundness of mind. She believes her book will be instrumental to others who struggle thinking they are alone in this dark hell of alcoholism. A disease so cunning, baffling, and powerful that it convinces us we do not have a disease.…
