Book excerpt: "You lit his hands-on fire, you crazy bitch," is probably something my mom never thought she would hear. However, she never thought she would marry someone who would punch a two-year-old in the face, especially when the two-year-old is their son, Joey. Joey had to survive with two brutal parents who saw a need to make his, and his siblings, lives a world of fear! Joey's siblings are Marilyn, Ellie, and Jimmy. All four are dehumanized by Lee Grim and his wife. As a military brat, Joey was more brat than military. His parents moved him all over the country and then at the age of 9, two weeks before Christmas, "dad" took off forever. This only made Joey swear he would love Christmas even more, for the rest of his life, and he never disappointed himself. The "new dad" was better, but not by much. He would use food against the kids by not allowing them to eat. This type of beat down was especially hard for a now 10-year-old kid. After Charles Bockus adopted the four kids, it got worse. After one very eventful beating on Joey the family had to make a hastily put together move to Florida. The move brought Joey new friends and new adventures--adventures into alcohol and drugs and cigarettes. By Joey's 18th year he was ready for something new, and made the choice to die at his own hands. The plan, the intervention, the outcome, all help Joey, when in the end, he gets what he wants!

In 2004, Congress spent a record-breaking $22.9 billion dollars of your money on 10,656 of their pork-barrel projects. The war on terror has a lot to do with the record $413 billion in deficit spending, but it's also the result of pork over the last 18 years the likes of: - $50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa - $102 million to study screwworms which were long ago eradicated from American soil - $273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri - $2.2 million to renovate the North Pole (Lucky for Santa!) - $50,000 for a tattoo removal program in California - $1 million for ornamental fish research Funny in some instances and jaw-droppingly stupid and wasteful in others, The Pig Book proves one thing about Capitol Hill: pork is king!

Not even his best friend (and accidental girlfriend) Mackenzie. Then he discovers a secret from actual history: Abraham Lincoln was in love with another guy Since everyone loves Lincoln, Wyatt's sure that if the world knew about it, they would treat gay people differently and it would solve everything about his life. So Wyatt outs Lincoln online, triggering a media firestorm that threatens to destroy everything he cares about.

Book excerpt: Won Park has taken the ancient art of origami to a whole new level. Using American currency, Park transforms dollar bills into creative works of art. He relies on the fibrous quality of the paper to fold, bend and twist hundreds of times per model without tearing. With no cutting and no pasting, Park is able to incorporate the details on the bills into his model designs. His signature koi fish is folded in such a way that the patterns on the dollar bill become the scales on the fish, and even the facial features fall in exactly the right place. His designs include a wide array of vehicles, animals, and mythical creatures. In this book, step-by-step instructions are provided for 20 distinct models that are bound to challenge even the most proficient folders. The challenge includes a Formula 1 race car, a toilet, a butterfly, a koi fish, a scorpion, a sea turtle, a fox, an ox, a marlin, a car, a praying mantis, a dragon, a spider, a stag beetle, a stegosaurus, a bat, Pegasus, a fighter jet, a battle tank, and a pig. All models can be made with either one or two dollar bills. Why worry about the declining value of the U.S. dollar? Follow the instructions in this book, and you can transform your dollars into works of art!
