A group of tweens unearth the most significant discovery in world history, designed to save the human species…from itself.

Ariel Hyden and his friends accompany their parents, some of the world’s top scientists, on a trip to the Yucatán where Dr. Hyden is conducting research for the Mexican government.

With thought-transmitting abilities, an ancient entity buried for millions of years, hatching flying pterosaurs, and futuristic technology, ARKO: The Dark Union is a thought-provoking and realistic story steeped in scientific facts, speculating on humanity’s ecological destruction and its survival.

The Sleep Code was written to help us all attain better sleep by reintroducing ancient sleep approaches for the modern world. Pradeep and Trupti have taken on a holistic approach to sleep, wellness, and spirituality in order to effectively address sleep disorders—a silent yet chronic issue.

The authors have experienced this personally, and their hope is to change the world by sharing their story, ancient tales from India, archaic scriptures, spiritual practices, and timeless techniques to get a good night’s rest. Let’s analyze our lifestyles and sleep rituals—or lack thereof—and learn how to optimize our sleeping schedule to live a happier, sounder, and more fulfilling life.

Then you’ll understand the Bandwidth successful companies give their Africa-focused teams to build relationships and to learn how culture and history influence business, the first place to start your business, and to identify the best type of market entry and business setup.

With the right appetite and bandwidth, you’ll make better decisions regarding Capital which is about more than just the money to run the business. Successful companies invest in social capital, cultural capital, and economic capital.
Throughout the book, you’ll find stories of entrepreneurs, local and global companies – some that have gotten it right and others that did not.

Shake It Off Leadership: Achieving Success Through The Eyes Of Our Labels

About Shake It Off Leadership: Achieving Success Through The Eyes Of Our Labels :

“Shake it off!”, shouts my coach and teammates from the sidelines after I missed a point.

Whether on the court, field or professionally, this phrase has motivated Betsy Cerulo to shake off the losses and get back up to give it her best. Being a successful business owner for 30 years has brought a myriad of victories and setbacks especially navigating the business playing field as an LGBT woman. Betsy takes on her labels of diversity with great pride and has been relentless in guiding employees and colleagues to never, ever give up, even when the odds are not in your favor. Betsy transformed her failing company out of the 2008 recession to a thriving 8(a) federal government contractor with a culture driven by collaborative compassion.

Betsy chronicles her journey to overcome discriminating barriers from childhood through business. Her courage to be vulnerable in revealing the tears and fears that she overcame, teaches the reader that with fire in your belly, you will tap into your own greatness to live your dreams. If you want to start a business, leave a job, clear out toxic relationships or allow yourself to surrender to love, Betsy shows us that our greatest riches are within our souls when we take the time to ask tough questions and be willing to listen for the answers. More than likely, we already know the answers yet it’s how we take action that leads us to the quality of life we are seeking.

Through her own mistakes, Betsy has overcome adversity to come from behind to live a joyful life filled with pride, as an LGBT woman, wife, parent and grandparent.

Betsy Cerulo is the CEO of AdNet/AccountNet, Inc., based in Baltimore, Maryland and Co-Founder of the Maryland LGBT Chamber of Commerce.

The Suicide Society by William Brennan Knight

The Suicide Society by William Brennan Knight

Do you sometimes feel like we’re all being led down a one-way path to self-destruction?
It’s like we’re living in a tinder box, and someone or something keeps nudging us a little further towards a totalitarian dystopian future…

Just one match can send everything up in flames… Who or what is behind this nebulous sickness and hatred that infects the very soul of humanity? Every day we’re exposed to reports of increasingly horrific brutality even as we try and cope with our own personal anguish.

How did it come to this?

After an unsuccessful suicide attempt, Zach Randall, a self-absorbed accountant, experiences disturbing visions of tortured souls preparing to die by their own hand. Initially dismissing the dreams as mere hallucinations, Randall begins to suspect there is deeper meaning hidden within each vision. Could these people be real? And who is the dark, mysterious entity who competes for the loyalties of the despondent and tormented before they breathe their last breath?

The Suicide Society is a supernatural thriller that evolves as a story of evil and a carefully devised plan to infiltrate every aspect of society for the purpose of promoting hate, chaos and ultimate destruction. As the clocks continues to wind down, Randall races to uncover the apocalyptic plot and expose the gifted leader of a massive covert network that relentlessly drives the world closer to a global catastrophe.

If you like books by DJ Molles, Stephen King, Dean R. Koonce, Joe Hill, Robert Masello, Clifford D Simak, and Eloise J Knapp, you better clear some time in your calendar for The Suicide Society Series because you’ll want to read all the books from cover to cover.
