Tea With Donna
What are the teaching skills and personal characteristics that distinguish truly remarkable teachers from the many "good" teachers? Clearly, the answer goes beyond knowledge of subject matter and love of teaching. In fact, great teachers make a personal connection with their students that is meaningful, impactful, and heartfelt. Donna Stack was that teacher who, over the course of her thirty-four years as a high school and college teacher, was able to reach the heart and soul of her students. With her combination of demanding high academic standards while offering encouragement and support, Donna valued her students, and they knew it. She modeled the behaviors she expected of her students, and they loved her for it. In today's changing and challenging world of education, the talents, values, and behaviors she embodied are timeless and are needed now more than ever. Through her own words and with comments made by her students, colleagues, friends, and family, readers will gain numerous insights about how a master teacher was able to cultivate an extraordinary legacy that transitioned over time from teacher to mentor and, ultimately, to lifelong friend.
Vera and the Ambassador
Vera and the Ambassador is a book to be savored and enjoyed on many levels. Both a behind-the-scenes peek at the operations of a U.S. embassy in a post–Cold War former Soviet satellite and a personal story of a refugee's escape and triumphant return, Vera and Donald Blinken's dual memoir openly details their challenges, setbacks, and victories as they worked in tandem to advance America's interests in Eastern Europe and to restore a former Soviet satellite state to a pre-communist level of prosperity.

Stick to the Plan
What do you do when you start to lose all hope when facing your demons? Do you give in, or do you fight? This book is about confronting whatever demons you may have in your life and not only fighting them, but keeping them at bay—forever! My demon was weight control, and I was knocking on death’s doorstep when I decided that this behavior had to change—and change fast. I love life too much to just give in to my weaknesses. I needed to show the same courage that I used as a former public school superintendent when confronted with an educational challenge. But just confronting was not enough . . . I needed to act. And as a result of my research and experience, I am also able to help others by developing the “Bathke Matrix” to help you fight your own personal demons. This book is designed to help those of us that need some guidance, assistance, and positive reinforcement when the challenging times seem to overwhelm us. This book made a positive difference in my life. It will make a positive difference in yours.
