Author Bio: Author David A. Kraft, a retired President of one of Simon & Shuster's largest business publishing divisions and an ex-columnist for the USNR, has lived through mergers, acquisitions and the horrors of downsizing for over 35 years. He has used this intimate knowledge of the corporate culture to write BigBro.com. Book Description: This is a story of high-level corporate greed. Jack Knox is Computer Security Director of ICCR, the world's largest computer service company, a multi-billion dollar operation that virtually controls the word-wide financial health of thousands of corporations. When profits dropped and growth rate sagged, ICCR, through its ruthless CEO, Martin Strange, mercilessly cut costs to satisfy Wall Street. Knox vigorously opposed the policy. He warned top management of the dangers ahead and was driven underground to fight for his beliefs. He used the only weapon at his disposal, control of ICCR's vast network of clients. He found himself all alone, pitted against the enormous power of the corporation, and soon against the whole country. Cornered, he resorted to financial blackmail. He anonymously threatened ICCR using the pseudonym of BigBro. Immediately his whole world fell apart as he was pulled into a web of intrigue, violence and notoriety. Using the power of the Internet, he hacked into client company files and brought the financial world to its knees. Knox became public enemy number one, sought by the police, FBI and the murderous agents of the savage Martin Strange. BigBro.com adeptly merges truth and fiction in one of the most enthralling cyber-thrillers of the year.

When a shadowy Chinese messenger appears at the door of Alfred Smith, a top geneticist and gives him a package that contains the newly discovered "Scrolls of Adamis" nothing in his life will be the same. If authentic, these papers will explode all the accepted theories of Darwinism, our most precious religious doctrines and even Creation itself. It will draw mankind into a new kind of "War of the Worlds" that will threaten our continued existence. More momentous than the "Dead Sea Scrolls" it will redefine the very existence of God. Only Alfred, his beautiful scientific associate, Ming Loo, held prisoner in China and an eccentric Professor from Duke University stand in the way of Earth's domination by an all powerful alien force that have already conquered our minds, infiltrated our DNA with their powerful genes and have patiently waited since our creation to complete their conquest. After countless eons, just 100 years are left for most of us on Earth and our descendents. After that all would disappear except for a chosen few. Only this unlikely trio has any chance of stopping them.

“Church is boring.” “It’s irrelevant.” “It’s full of hypocrites.” You’ve heard the excuses—now learn the real reasons men and boys are fleeing churches of every kind, all over the world, and what we can do about it. Women comprise more than 60% of the adults in a typical worship service in America. Some overseas congregations report ten women for every man in attendance. Men are less likely to lead, volunteer, and give in the church. They pray less, share their faith less, and read the Bible less. In Why Men Hate Going to Church, David Murrow identifies the barriers keeping many men from going to church, explains why it’s so hard to motivate the men who do attend, and also takes you inside several fast-growing congregations that are winning the hearts of men and boys. In this completely revised, reorganized, and rewritten edition of the classic book, with more than 70 percent new content, explore topics like: The increase and decrease in male church attendance during the past 500 years Why Christian churches are more feminine even though men are often still the leaders The difference between the type of God men and women like to worship The lack of volunteering and ministry opportunities for men The benefits men get from attending church regularly Men need the church but, more importantly, the church needs men. The presence of enthusiastic men is one of the surest predictors of church health, growth, giving, and expansion. Why Men Hate Going to Church does not call men back to church—it calls the church back to men.
