A new fantasy-adventure trilogy about a misfit twelve-year-old with a dangerous destiny to fulfill, a mystical time walker who is sent to protect him, and a maniacal villain with a deadly vendetta that began two hundred years ago in the heart of the Old West.
Sam Miracle’s life is made up of dreams that come to him when he’s wide awake. They take him to another place and time, where he’s a courageous, legendary hero instead of a foster kid with two bad arms that can barely move. Sometimes these dreams feel so real, they seem like forgotten memories. And sometimes they make him believe that his arms might come alive again.
But Sam is about to discover that the world he knows and the world he imagines are separated by one thing: time. And that separation is only an illusion. The laws of time can be bent and shifted by people with special magic that allows them to travel through the past, present, and future. One of these “time walkers” is out to protect Sam so that he can accept his greatest destiny, and another is out to kill him so that a prophecy will never be fulfilled. However, it’s an adventurous girl named Glory and two peculiar snakes who show Sam the way through the dark paths of yesterday to help him make sure there will be a tomorrow for every last person on earth.

Writing a few books in last two years has given me the confidence to write something for the readers. Some of the books are liked by the readers more and some are liked less. That is quite natural. I did try to write few poems in my mother tongue when I was in school and college. Some of them were also published by local magazines. But somehow, I was never comfortable in writing poetry.In this book there are six poems, based mostly on conservation of water, enviroinment and maintenance of cleanliness.

David Ricardo and his ideas attacked: tariffs, free trade, comparative advantage in production, Iron Law of Wages discussed and refuted. Social issues and human nature looked at from historical and common sense perspective.A preface notes some basic concepts of David Ricardo and his background. Chapter 1 deals with comparative advantage as an economic theory. It notes that the real problem is the dissemination of wisdom, not a lack of specialization of labor. It notes that specialization results in economic problems, social strife, injustices of every sort. It notes that it hides the real source of wealth, the wisdom that guides labor and makes it worthwhile. Chapter 2 gives reasons why excessive division of labor has drawbacks that actually reduce wealth, ruin men's lives, passes the blame onto labor for faults in production, when the real problem lies in management. Chapter 3 discusses briefly the Iron Law of Wages. It maintains that employers are well advised to keep loyal employees by protecting their income to the benefit of both employer and employee, and the forces undermining this commonsense behavior. Chapter 4 discusses tariffs, the advantages of tariffs, how free trade can produce trouble, reduction in wealth. It notes how free trade hides the value of free dissemination of ideas as the real generator of wealth. I use the American tariff policy of the nineteenth century to illustrate the problems of the tariff. Views: 732

Janet Evanovich teams up with Phoef Sutton for a brand-new series of mysteries featuring Emerson Knight and Riley Moon, a dynamic duo with instant and undeniable chemistry.
Emerson Knight is introverted, eccentric, and has little to no sense of social etiquette. Good thing he's also brilliant, rich, and (some people might say) handsome, or he'd probably be homeless.
Riley Moon has just graduated from Harvard Business and Harvard Law. Her aggressive Texas spitfire attitude has helped her land her dream job as a junior analyst with mega-bank Blane-Grunwald. At least Riley Moon thought it was her dream job, until she is given her first assignment: babysitting Emerson Knight.
What starts off as an inquiry about missing bank funds in the Knight account leads to inquiries about a missing man, missing gold, and a life-and-death race across the country. Through the streets of Washington, D.C., and down into the underground vault of the Federal Reserve in New York City, an evil plan is exposed. A plan so sinister that only a megalomaniac could think it up, and only the unlikely duo of the irrepressibly charming Emerson Knight and the tenacious Riley Moon can stop it. Views: 731
