Slumming Angels is a detective mystery set in Houston, Texas in the 1990's. The protagonist, Trip Chandler, is a no-nonsense tough guy from the old school. His penchant for finding trouble and attracting beautiful women, coupled with a sharp tongue and quick fists, is a recipe for disaster. In Chandler's maiden voyage, he gets involved with a sixtyish Texas oilman and his drop-dead gorgeous mistress, a blonde nymphomaniac that can reduce the toughest-tough guy, to a flaccid puddle of warm water. This one includes big bucks, quick sex, blackmail, and of course murder.

Rand Mintzer woke up one day and realized that he was morbidly obese, barely passing his college classes, and without any real goals. Inspired by the memory of a television movie and encouraged by a college roommate, he started running and turned his life around. That was more than thirty years ago, and he's been running ever since-even finishing a marathon. Whether you are battling a weight problem or already consider yourself a runner, you will be motivated by his personal story of redemption. "Every runner's story is at once unique and cut from a common cloth. Rand Mintzer's story is filled with heartwarming lessons and goals reached while saturated with logical and practical advice from which every new runner can benefit. Essentially two books in one, Thirty-Three Years of Running in Circles runs from the inspiring personal to the logical and essential practical while covering everything in between." -Rich Benyo, editor, Marathon and Beyond magazine

Environmentally and socially sustainable policies are essential for good governance. Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is the key tool for integrating environmental considerations into policies, programs and plans. This book focuses on SEA applied to policies. Through lessons learned from previous use of SEA on policies, it draws lessons on the strengths and weaknesses of current SEA methodology. It then goes on to analyze how policies are formulated and implemented and proposes a new conceptual framework for conducting SEA of policies thatpotentially could be more useful in influencing decision makers to integrate environmental sustainability considerations into policy formulation and implementation.
