"The leaf of such known virtues ... that it is sold for twice its weight in silver. It maketh the body active and lusty. It helpth the headache, giddiness and heaviness and thereof. It is very good against stone and gravel, cleaning the kidneys and ureter. It is good against crudities, strengthening the weakness of the Ventricle or Stomack, causing good appetite and Deigestion and particularly for men of a corpulent body and such as are great eaters of flesh... It prevents and cures ague, surefeits...and fevers, by infusing a fit quantity of the leaf, thereby provoking a most gentle vomit...It drives away all pains in the Collick proceeding from wind and purgeth safety the Gall..."

Book excerpt: Zac Taylor and his crew are at the end of their last summer together before senior year of high school. Unsure of where each is headed after graduation, they know three things: time is fleeting, the pool where they all work as lifeguards is swimming with hotties, and life really is greener on the other side of the hill when the person sitting next to you has a tightly-rolled joint. In some ways, life couldn't be any more picturesque for this band of Midwestern misfits. But nothing is ever as it seems. Zac's stepdad is a tyrant with soul-crushing plans for Zac's life. And when a surprise visitor steps in on Zac's behalf, tragedy befalls the family, sending Zac into a self-destructive downward spiral. Can the love of his life, a snarky, Beatles superfan, a brick of weed, a bar owner named Arlo, and an unexpected inheritance get Zac back on track to fulfill his destiny or is this just the beginning of Zac's endless descent into the hazy hippie world of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll?

Download or read book Softlie written by Kayode Taiwo Olla and published by . This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ...ORDINARILY, THE UNION OF THE SEXES, whether in affection or hostility, is a vast pool which creative artists from ancient times to the present have drawn inspirations for their thematic concerns and style. Thus, a new work in this direction stands the risk of treading the familiar path without making much impression. What subtly but eloquently stands out in Kayode Taiwo Olla's Softlie, is its uncommon blend of the poetic with the narrative, and the melodic with the dramatic. The reader's attention is firmly held and sustained from the beginning to the end of the collection through irony, pun, suspense and ellipsis. ...Softlie is therefore a richly endowed collection of poems that I find enticing with every reading and it is self-recommending.

Book excerpt: In Learning Disabilities: The Myth, Marta L Marchisan, Ph. D., writes that there is nothing wrong with the vast majority of students who are labeled disabled and placed in special programs.This theme is written in clear, concise language that connects with all those involved in education from preschool teachers to university professors to parents and students. Marchisan candidly questions the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and the use of drugs as a solution. She challenges the theories of the past twenty-five years of how students learn and identifies the core problem. She suggests that more money is not the answer to the mushrooming problem of illiteracy in American education, but rather a workable study technology and the recognition that students are spiritual beings is. Marchisan gives us hope with her anecdotes about students and their struggle to survive in a suppressive education system that has lost touch with who we are teaching. **Learning Disabilities: The Myth is currently available in German, also from AuthorHouse at www.authorhouse.com.**
