A Doctor's Quest
A doctor grapples with the challenges of mother-and-child health in the developing world. Recounting medical missions in one-third of the forty-five countries in which she has worked for the past thirty years in Africa, Asia, and, the Caribbean, and the South Pacific, Dr. Gretchen Roedde shares the grim reality of world politics and bureaucratic red tape on the front lines as a doctor in mother-and-child health and HIV/AIDS. This second edition updates the progress in reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH), with additional studies in Afghanistan, Laos, South Sudan, and Nigeria. It tells the stories of the hopes of village women struggling to give birth safely, of their often corrupt leaders, and of countries trying to bring evil despots to justice. Roedde analyzes the encouraging momentum in global maternal health while maintaining a focus on equity disparities within and between countries.

Sufferring is born out of hatred and anger. Life becomes a burden. How can we restore peace again? How can we live in peace with ourselves, maintain this harmony in our surroundings, so that other people can also experience peaceful lives? DEWFALL invites us to go back to our inner soul and experience reality of ourselves as they are, to see with our own inner eyes the truth so that we can regain peace. Every person searching for peace and truth shall undergo these seven stages of purification: purification of Mind, purification of Feelings, purification of Heart, Stillness, Freedom of Soul and Self-Sacrifice, then Enlightenment. These stages are open to everyone. Blessed are those who decide to engage the journey.

The Assault Continues
America had been attacked and ravaged over three nights by an elite force of Al-Qaeda guerilla teams, but thanks to FBI special agent Philip Calvert and his ad hoc team of agents, cops, and Marine sharpshooters, that assault had been blunted, and many of the attackers killed or captured.
