This is all you need for Middle Easter cooking
After my gourmet food writer friend's recommendation, purchased this for a quality food fan husband as a gift. This book contains thorough recipes of Middle Eastern with history and original names. Some inserts of beautiful photos, as well (which is more restaurant ready than home ready). Can use out of this every day. Strongly recommended.

Perfect for your Pre-Teen girls
I began reading these books when I was in 5th grade and remember continuing to read them through Jr. High School. Now, I am 24 years old, pregnant with my first baby (a girl) and have pulled out those books to dust off and pass onto my daughter. These books are light-hearted, fun and still teach a good lesson about friendship, handling jobs, money, etc. I think these are fabulous books and ...

Andrews Mcmeel Pub, 1998

Brain Fog Unfogged -- A Feat in Communication
Osborn does what is virtually impossible. She translates the fog of a damaged brain's function into vignettes that an undamaged brain can comprehend. In her case, this translation is from experiences which were by definition wordless, disorganized, incomprehensible, frightening and often completely mindless to their opposites. The level of Dr. Osborn's skill in doing this may be best ...

Become ten feet tall and bullettproof!
Interesting that some people are surprised that Charles Givens produced this audio tape program and the book of the same name--SuperSelf; interesting because this is how Givens started way back in 1975 with his first company The Success Motivation Institute which was incredibly successful. SuperSelf is a program designed to take back control. To destroy the control others or events have over our ...

Claudia Emerson

Louisiana State University Press, 2005

Wonderful
I was a student of Claudia Emerson's at Mary Washignton College, and find her ability to honest and genuine in the classroom translates in her work. I remember her discussing "Late Wife" just as her previous collection "Pinion" was released. It is exciting to see the conversations she had among her students, now present in the art. My favorite poem is her metaphoric look at the batting cage and ...

Great Book -- Must read

Honest, Passionate, & Full of Grace
In Death, Deceit, & Some Smooth Jazz, Claudia Mair Burney paints her characters human. This second book in the Amanda "Bell" Brown series goes even deeper than the wonderful first book, Murder, Mayhem & a Fine Man. This time the chemistry between the two Browns, Bell, the striving-to-be-holy forensic psychologist, and Jazz, the smooth and equally God-fearing detective is still potentially ...
