The Unveiling: Pain, Trauma, and Truth
The Unveiling is a powerful, raw, and inspiring autobiography by a once broken girl who is now a strong woman who persevered through all of life's obstacles. It uncovers a life suffered behind closed doors, before the author discovered the triumph of finding true love and the joy of another chance at motherhood. With courage, honesty, and boldness, Monica invites readers into a world of challenging and difficult experiences that shaped her into the woman she has become today. She shares pieces of her life that have never been verbalized-attempting to stay brave and strong for her children as a once single mother of three sons, life as a twice-divorced woman, and the toxic relationships she endured through the years. Monica intends for her story to provide hope (though it does contain what might be some disturbing content). She prays that The Unveiling will inspire others to not live in shame, guilt, or regret, but to embrace surviving the raging and tumultuous storms of life-just as she did.
The Sex Offender Housing Dilemma
"When a South Carolina couple killed a registered sex offender and his wife after they moved into their neighborhood in 2013, the story exposed an extreme and relatively rare instance of violence against sex offenders. While media accounts would have us believe that vigilantes across the country lie in wait for predators who move into their neighborhoods, responses to sex offenders more often involve collective campaigns that direct outrage toward political and criminal justice systems. No community wants a sex offender in its midst, but instead of vigilantism, [the author] argues, citizens often leverage moral, political, and/or legal authority to keep these offenders out of local neighborh...
Le Fond Du Problème
Le Fond du Problme serves as an oeuvre about growth, emotion, and truth. Author Monica Kryol Williams experiences life and then compiles her interpretation in a passionate and descriptive manner, building toward the divine mastery of harmony. She chooses to write her feelings, rarely committing the words to memory. Each script is either a pathway to freedom or a curtain of closure, paving a road to wellness that she hopes may inspire others to discover healing. As the horizon so gracefully interprets hope and peace, Encouragement that beyond the shadows otherwise unseen overwhelms me, I begin to realize the darkness was a misunderstanding. There had always been light. At times my eyes were closed with fear. All I needed was to feel the warmth on my face and open my eyes. from Window
Ted Williams
Ted Williams (1918?2002) was a paradox. His cool, controlled, and patient attitude while at the plate was incongruous with his explosive, unpredictable temper out of the batter?s box. With a swing that was both admired and feared, Williams has been called the greatest hitter of the last half of the twentieth century and was perhaps the greatest left-handed hitter of all time. In this biography Michael Seidel explores the complexities of the mercurial personality and amazing career of the near-mythic ?Splendid Splinter.? ø With the death of Williams in the summer of 2002, baseball lost one of its true greats. Yet controversy continued to surround Williams in death as news of a bizarre family dispute over the fate of Williams?s body captivated the country. In a new foreword to this edition, the author discusses the odd events surrounding the ballplayer?s death and their significance to the legend of Ted Williams.
Nietzsche's Lament
Nietzsche's Lament is a crime/thriller about two female serial killers caught up in a web of deception, devil worship, and cult religion. Follow a Spartan-like FBI agent fond of martial arts, and a seasoned LAPD lieutenant, as they team up to follow a trail of evil, surprise, and suspense. The tension builds as the intrepid investigators close in on the Bambinos, a prominent east coast mob family, and Scientology, the controversial religion embraced by high profile Hollywood personalities. The fast paced narrative features memorable characters embroiled in a trail of assassinations, revenge killings, and paranoid obsessions. The novel twists and turns through a labyrinth crawling with deception, violence, and madness. The characters adopt shifting personas that present the reader with provocative questions about the true nature of self. The trail of madness, murder, and mayhem, plays out in many of California's most recognizable haunts and institutions.
Catholic Families of Southern Maryland
St. Mary's residents played a key role in the development of the Catholic Church throughout the whole of America, providing the spearhead of the westward expansion of Catholicism. In 1785, for example, the first of many Catholic families from St. Mary's crossed the mountains to find land in Kentucky, while a few years later, driven by economic necessity, others migrated to Georgia, Missouri, Louisiana, and Texas. Mr. O'Rourke has collected many of the earliest surviving records of the Catholic families of St. Mary's County, Maryland. The most significant portion of the work contains the marriages and baptisms from the Jesuit parishes of St. Francis Xavier and St. Inigoes, which, in the case of baptisms (1767-1794), give the names of children, parents, and godparents, and the date of baptism; and in the case of marriages (1767-1784), the names of the married partners and the date of marriage.
Policy Matters
Never have policy initiatives been so important than in today’s society. Neoliberal manifestations, climate change, civil rights movements, and governmental reactions to these issues have created a backdrop where greater education in policy analysis and development is vital.
