Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Gibson is determined to check off the last item on his bucket list: a trip across America. He hops in his RV to visit - and sketch - the buildings and places across America that he and his wife never got to see. When his daughter learns of a young boy forced to give up a beloved Saint Bernard named Lewis, she suggests George adopt the animal as a traveling companion. The dog even fits perfectly in the sidecar of George's Vespa motor scooter. As George warms to his travel mate, he begins talking to Lewis, sharing stories from his life and his unrealized dreams. Along the way, Lewis seems to attract people and make instant friends with the quirky and charming, funny and odd people who cross their path. Could it be that his new friends - and this strange dog - will help George to finally confront the secret he's been hiding? Can Lewis's devotion to the truth be enough to save George from himself?

Book excerpt: Adult Hunt was written from many documented stories of abuses that children were subjected to by their parents, friends, or strangers. This book will help other children to know that they are not alone in their suffering and where to go for help. All of this is entwined into a science fiction story where the children get to travel into a domed underwater environment near Washington, D.C. where they receive everything a child could want. They then get to choose which Holodeck Maze Game their abusers must go through in order to pay them back for their many abuses. No person is actually killed or injured during this competition, however, the abusers feel the effects of the games in real time. Both the child and the abuser are given gold rings with angels whose eyes turn from green to ruby red when it is their time to complete the games. "May your chances favor your outcomes" was written across the top of each application which the children had filled out and e-mailed to enter the Holodeck Maze Games.

Book excerpt: “Based on the latest findings in the field of canine cognition and behavior, this book is an invaluable resource.” —Hal Herzog, author of Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat: Why It's So Hard To Think Straight About Animals Every dog owner knows that along with the joy can come the stress and frustration of behavioral problems, which are expensive to diagnose and treat. Enter Kim Brophey, award-winning canine behavior consultant. Using cutting-edge research, Brophey has developed a groundbreaking system that allows owners to identify what their dog is struggling with, why, and how they can fix it. Brophey’s approach is unlike anything that has been published before and will give dog owners a new understanding of what motivates and affects their dog’s behavior. This innovative technique rethinks the way we categorize dogs, and distills information from over twenty scientific disciplines into four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics, and self. With revolutionary tips for specific dog breeds, this book will change dog owners’ lives—and lead to happier human-canine relationships. “It’s refreshing to finally find a book that takes into consideration the many predispositions to behavior problems in dogs . . . teaches us to really see the dog in its entirety.” —Alexandre Rossi, author of A Dog at the Keyboard

Download or read book Loulou Yves written by Christopher Petkanas and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one interested in fashion, style, or the high-flying intrigues of café society will want to miss Christopher Petkanas’s exuberantly entertaining oral biography Loulou & Yves: The Untold Story of Loulou de La Falaise and the House of Saint Laurent. Dauntless, “in the bone” style made Loulou de La Falaise one of the great fashion firebrands of the twentieth century. Descending in a direct line from Coco Chanel and Elsa Schiaparelli, she was celebrated at her death in 2011, aged just sixty-four, as the “highest of haute bohemia,” a feckless adventuress in the art of living—and the one person Yves Saint Laurent could not live without. Yves was the most influential designer of his times; possibly also the most neurasthenic. In an exquisitely intimate, sometimes painful personal and professional relationship, Loulou was his creative right hand, muse, alter ego and the virtuoso behind all the flamboyant accessories that were a crucial component of the YSL “look.” For thirty years, until his retirement in 2002, Yves relied on Loulou to inspire him, make him laugh and talk him off the ledge—the enchanted formula that brought him from one historic collection to the next. Yves’s many tributes shape Loulou’s memory, as if everything there was to know about this fugitive, Giacometti-like figure could be told by her clanking bronze cuffs, towering fur toques, the turquoise boulders on her fingers and her working friendship with the man who put women in pants. But another, darker story lifts the veil on Loulou, a classic “number two” with a contempt for convention, and exposes the underbelly of fashion at its highest level. Behind Yves’s encomiums are a pair of aristocrat parents—Loulou’s shiftless French father and menacingly chic English mother—who abandoned her to a childhood of foster care and sexual abuse; Loulou’s recurring desperation to leave Yves and go out on her own; and the grandiose myths surrounding her family. Loulou felt that her life had been kidnapped by the operatic workings of the House of Saint Laurent, and in her last years faced financial ruin. Loulou & Yves unspools an elusive fashion idol—nymphomaniacal, heedless and up to her bracelets in coke and Boizel champagne—at the core of what used to be called “le beau monde.”

Download or read book The Family that Overtook Christ written by Father M. Raymond (O.C.S.O.) and published by IvePress. This book was released on 2008 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard of Clairvaux was called the voice of his century. His influence towered above that of his contemporaries. People flocked to him--some out of wonder and others out of curiosity, all of them drawn by his spiritual magnetism. Who or what fashioned Bernard into an advisor of popes and healer of schisms? How can we account for his great following of holy religious men and women, for his profound spiritual doctrine? Bernard was a product of God's grace working both in himself and in the extraordinary family to which he belonged. This book is the fascinating account of that family. With warmth and realism Saint Bernard steps out of these pages, together with his parents, Venerable Tescelin and Blessed Alice, and his brothers and sisters -- all of whom have been declared blessed: Guy, Gerard, Humbeline, Andrew, Bartholomew and Nivard.
