Book excerpt: In 2002 while asleep in my home in Roswell, GA, I received messages and visions from God. God was sending me previews of coming attractions. Insights of what's about to happen to American and the world. What God had shown me so far has happened, as per God. In September of 2019, I wrote a letter to President Trump saying a global pandemic, COVID -19 was coming, following by a worldwide economic collapse, that would result in many dead people throughout the world. I predicted gun sales would dramatically increase as more Americas would get armed, and they have. I correctly predicted the fourth quarter financial stock market crash of 2007-2008. I predicted the recent rise of black lives matter, their violence, and much more. God is using me to wake up Americans having you prepare for what's yet to come. He's having me sound an alarm, saying wake-up get ready Americans, things may get even worse, or they could get much better depending upon Americans. God is using me to Sound the Alarm, asking you to please turn back to Him, the bible, and the ten commandments. I don't attend church, nor do I go to Shul. God is using a former powerful drug dealer, that turned his life around, me and went straight, now birthing God's message to the world. I've had the united states secret service visit with me, spending hours with me learning about what's yet to come next. You can have the upper hand and win, by ordering Sound the Alarm.

Ironically, this problem comes even after comprehensive research demonstrates that nearly all children can learn to read if taught using proven-effective instruction. Here, the authors describe the principles of this research in language that non-educators can understand and educators can use. It discusses how to recognize whether the research on reading is being used appropriately, and if not, how to make that happen. Through the eyes of parents and educators who have succeeded in their own struggles to change the educational system, the book provides the reader with the tools and knowledge for transforming the way reading is taught in their children's classrooms.

There is only one considerably serious concern that will markedly define the future consequence of this planet more than any other, is the threat of global warming”….Inter Govt Panel On Climate Change Climate change is no longer a dilemma or a riddle to solve. Science has proved it beyond reasonable doubt. It is happening here and now with all of us where we have already crossed multiple tipping points of no return. Climate change is very complex, yet the solution is very simple. “Just stop burning fossil fuels”…A K Singh “We had a 67 percent chance of limiting the global temperature rise to below 1.50 C till 2018. We emit 42 Gt of CO2 every year. Now we have left not more than 420 Gt of CO2 budget to squander at current emission level within roughly another 8 years”….IPCC page 108, chapter 2. “People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of mass extinction. And all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you” !....Greta Thunberg Sweden
