This is a great book for firmly setting keys dates in a child's (or adult's)mind. There are roughly 20 events laid out in the book. One page details the events that make the date or era important while the facing page has a full-page illustration of the events. The illustrations help cement the events in the mind. These are pegs in history from which to hang other events. This would make for great dividers in a history notebook where other events would simply fit inbetween.

I know Dean and I know he needs the money.

AND THEN THERE WERE by Vivien Dean
Demon hunter Ryan Nixon has been hunting vampires for the past century. Behind his boyish, carefree good looks hides the determined heart and mind of a killer. What should have been a routine vampire hunt in Grand Central Station becomes a nightmare when the vampires prove to be the hunters rather than the hunted. Trapped with several other hunters, while they await the vampires next move, Ryan pairs up with the object of all his fantasies over the past decade - Tala Mamola. She saved him for the vampire attack that had resulted in his girlfriend's death ten years ago and he's had a serious case of hero worship and lust ever since.

Vivien Dean presents readers with a fascinating story full of passion, angst, fear, and a lot of kick-butt action. Ryan may be a demon hunter but there's still a sense of innocence and insecurity about him - especially when it comes to Tala.


SCORPION'S ORCHID by Eva Gale
Doctor Martin Detweiller is searching for a cure to save the youth who have been mutating into what is known as Scorpicos. One of the main ingredients in his solution however is an illegal substance - an orchid. Katerina Metrenko is an orchid smuggler who's busy raising several orphans. If she doesn't sell follow the blackmailer's instructions in regard to selling the orchids, then her orphans will be carted off and forced to work the salt mines. Doctor Martin desperately needs her orchids and Katerina can't risk losing her makeshift family by going against Mayor Grimsbee's orders and refusing to sell to his buyers. Doctor Martin's solution to both their problems is to get married.

Eva Gale presents a bleak future full of glimpses of hope with this tale. Plants are illegal, religion has basically been abolished and some youth have been mutating into giant spiders. OK as an official spider-hater I admit that was enough to horrify me, but plants being illegal? Religion abolished? There's something wrong with a society where beauty and hope have been taken away. Fortunately there are people like Martin and Katerina who refuse to give up their beliefs.


RAILROAD STANDARD TIME by Philippa Grey-Gerou
Dani Whitehall passes through Grand Central Station every day on her way to and from work and she's never noticed anything unusual, but then she runs into a mysterious and sexy stranger and suddenly she notices him there each day. While she's attracted to him, he's evasive and she grows concerned that he may be a stalker. He soon introduces himself as Trev Sutcliffe and his presence in the train station is job related.

At some point in our lives we all see people we're drawn to for no explicable reason. Normally we shrug and go on with our lives but what if that person is there day after day? Dani and Trev represent the present and the future and as a reader you think that there's no way they'll be able to be together but he's one determined man and I had to admire the lengths he'd go to for her. Philippa Grey-Gerou tells an exciting tale with this story that will have you eagerly reading to see just how it turns out.


BENEATH THE SURFACE by Cat Johnson
Rick Jones is on a mission and apparently the answers to the questions he's seeking lie beneath the streets of New York - in Grand Central Station specifically. While Rick goes underground in search of answers he encounters a woman he finds just as intriguing as the answers he seeks. Beth's job as a conservation expert at Grand Central Station gives Rick just the `in' he needs to explore areas otherwise off-limits to the public. Rick's determined to satisfy both his desire for Beth and find the answers to his questions, but will Beth believe him when the truth about his identity and what he's doing is finally revealed?

Cat Johnson gives readers an inside look at the inner workings of Grand Central Station with this story. I had no idea there was so much historical significance to the site and found the work Beth does fascinating. Rick is in a difficult position, no matter how honest he'd like to be with Beth, he has a job to do and can't jeopardize the case he's currently investigating by confiding in her. This is a touching story that will have readers eagerly reading to discover the secrets deep beneath the streets of New York.

Grand Central Station is a fascinating landmark. It's full of tunnels and mysteries and it's easy to see how many different stories could be written with the train station as a focal point. PHAZE FANTASIES - VOLUME IV presents four vastly different tales that add a sense of wonder and fascination to the historical train station while fueling readers fantasies. Each of these stories is excellently written and full of details that allow you to experience the stories along with the characters.

I purchased this music book specifically for 'Your Grace Still Amazes Me, for our church pianist to play in full as an introduction to the Worship Hour. Beautiful, beautiful song. The sheet music is great as it includes the melody not just accompaniment. 'Come, Now is the time To Worship' and 'Heart of Worship' are also great for worship songs.

I'm a completely unabashed X-files fan. My wife and I lived without TV for 12 years and never viewed an episode until we purchased 9 years worth of DVD boxed sets here on amazon and watched them all over a single winter.
I am also an unabashed fan of the "Philosophy of the X-files." The concepts, theories and inner angst of Mulder and Scully demanded a philosophical examination directed to present day society and this collection of thought provoking essay's edited by Dean A. Kowalski, who was also a major contributor, does an excellent job.
I have added this book to my collection of X-files reference books and if you'd like to delve beneath the surface of the unique way the X-files views the world around us i recommend this book.

An excellent resource showing the workings behind a number of great images. The method of presenting each shoot is simple, yet gets into many details, and offers tips associated with practices used in each scenario.

Mario DeMarco presents "THE PHOTOSTORY OF "THE DEAN OF COWBOY STARS" HOOT GIBSON" (Paperback) (1986) --- This is the fifth publication in this series on famous movie western stars --- It features the last of the "BIG FIVE" members, Hoot Gibson, "super" cowboy --- For the readers who are not familiar with the BIG FIVE title, it represents five of the greatest and most popular "cowboy" stars --- They included such stalwarts as William S. Hart, Harry Carey, Tom Mix, Buck Jones and Hoot Gibson.

Born Edmund Richard Gibson in Tekamah, Nebraska, he learned to ride a horse while still a very young boy --- His family moved to California when he was seven years old --- As a teenager he worked with horses on a ranch, which led to competition on bucking broncos at area rodeos --- Given the nickname "Hoot Owl" by co-workers, the name evolved to just "Hoot" --- In 1910, film director Francis Boggs was looking for experienced cowboys to appear in his silent film short, "Pride of the Range" --- Gibson and another future star of Western films, Tom Mix, were hired --- Hoot made a second film for Boggs in 1911 --- After the director was killed by a deranged employee, Gibson was hired by director Jack Conway to appear in his 1912 Western, "His Only Son" --- Acting for Gibson was then a minor sideline and he continued competing in rodeos to make a living --- In 1912 he won the all-around championship at the famous Pendleton Round-Up in Pendleton, Oregon and the steer roping World Championship at the Calgary Stampede.

Gibson's career was temporarily interrupted with service in the United States Army during World War I --- When the war ended, he returned to the rodeo business and became good friends with Art Acord, a fellow cowboy and movie actor --- The two participated in summer rodeo then went back to Hollywood for the winter to do stunt work --- For several years, Gibson had secondary film roles (primarily in Westerns) with stars such as Harry Carey --- By 1921 the demand for cowboy pictures was so great that Gibson began receiving offers for leading roles --- Some of these offers came from up-and-coming film director John Ford, with whom Gibson developed a lasting friendship and working relationship ---

For his contribution to the motion picture industry, Hoot Gibson has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1765 Vine Street --- In 1979, he was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma --- (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Check out a new book from Empire Publishing - "GENE AUTRY WESTERNS" (Hardcover) - by author Boyd Magers, like no other book on Gene Autry --- all of Gene's Mascot, Republic and Columbia westerns included, as well as his half-hour TV Episodes --- each segment contains the release date on each film -- major production credits -- complete cast (including character played) -- all songs included, songwriter and who performed them in the film -- running time of each film ... dates of the filming -- bios on the cast and major players (Smiley, Pat Buttram, Cass County Boys, Herbert J. Yates, directors, leading ladies, songwriters and various heavies, etc.) -- locations that were used -- budgets and negative cost -- stunt people involved -- analysis and synopsis on each film -- notes and comments (including film and cast background info, salaries paid, working titles, etc) -- comments from Gene and many other cast members on each film -- theater exhibitors comments at the time of the films release -- this tribute was written from the heart and it shows.

Hats off and thanks to Les Adams (collector/guideslines for character identification), Chuck Anderson (Webmaster: The Old Corral/B-Westerns.Com), Boyd Magers (Western Clippings), Bobby J. Copeland (author of "Trail Talk"), Rhonda Lemons (Empire Publishing Inc) and Bob Nareau (author of "The Real Bob Steele") as they have rekindled my interest once again for B-Westerns and Serials --- If you're into the memories of Early B-Westerns and Serials, this is the one you've been anxiously waiting for --- Mario DeMarco has captured the past in the retelling of our favorite western actor Hoot Gibson, please stand up and take a bow --- all my heroes have been cowboys!

Total Pages: 100 ~ Mario DeMarco Unknown Binding ~ (1986)

The amazing part of this book is that all the explanations are demonstrated by physical experiments (rather than mental experiments/ theory). I feel some subjects should be taught/read for the novice/freshman student that way. Electricity and magnetism is one such subject.

Author is a renowned physicist in Gottingen school. His two classics on
Mechanics & Acoustics, Electricity & Magnetism are excellent books for an introductory physics/engineering. There is a third book by him on Optics & Atomic physics.

There are many pianist's suggestions, directly let the reader know that how the pianist want to interpetate the music. Highly recommend!!!
