Thomas Sayre came with his family from England to Lynn, Massachusetts in the early 1630's. Among descendants of Thomas were clergymen, surgeons, attorneys, ambassadors, and representatives of almost every profession. Francis B., cowboy, professor of law, and ambassador, was son-in-law of former President Woodrow Wilson, Zelda was the wife of American novelist, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and subject of one of his books. David A. was a silversmith, banker, and founder of Lexington's Sayre School. Many Sayre descendants were taken by wars in service to America and never had the chance to win recognition for their inherent abilities. SAYRE FAMILY...another 100-years, in a large part, focuses on the ea...
The life of Eddie Bartlett, a lonely, timid Wall Street research analyst, changes dramatically after he hires The Reynard Agency to help him meet beautiful women using their unique dating system. What he didn't know, what no one knew, was that he would meet the girl of his dreams and that death and destruction would follow as he desperately tried to keep her.

It will be of great interest to those engaged in cognitive science, psychology, anthropology and the history of science.
Freedom from 'Christian slavery' Radical grace, radical love, radical life Mike Massé loved God and lived to reach the lost. He was admired for his commitment to the gospel and his passion for ministry. But for many years he harbored a private sense of unworthiness and inadequacy, striving to be "good enough"--until a grace conversion liberated him from the chains of expectation and requirement. Only as he came to recognize his true position in Christ did he find the power to love God and others as he desired--from the safe place of total acceptance. Challenging conventional wisdom, traditional thinking, and religious attitudes as he shares his experiences, Massé explains how you can find the same freedom to be who God has always said you are. With honesty, humor, and heart-felt conviction, he celebrates the liberty to be found in the radical truth between legalism and license. Mike Massé has been in ministry for almost 20 years. Part of the pastoral staff at River of Life Christian Fellowship in Tolland, Conn., he also oversees the youth movement, The Rising, with his wife, Becca. They are the parents of Micah, Josiah Talon, and a third on the way.
The findings reported in this book are based upon ethnographic observations of drug courts throughout the United States and provide a glimpse into the unique character of the American drug court model, considering the qualities and consequences of this form of criminal adjudication.
A wide variety of problem-solving courts have been developed in the United States over the past two decades and are now being adopted in countries around the world. These innovative courts--including drug courts, community courts, domestic violence courts, and mental health courts--do not simply adjudicate offenders. Rather, they attempt to solve the problems underlying such criminal behaviors as petty theft, prostitution, and drug offenses. Legal Accents, Legal Borrowing is a study of the international problem-solving court movement and the first comparative analysis of the development of these courts in the United States and the other countries where the movement is most advanced: England,...
