This book is not intended to drive people away from their religion, or denounce their beliefs in whatever God they believe in. It is simply aimed at waking up the Godly spirit we have all been infused with, recognizing it for what it is, and putting it to its ultimate use. Since the "invention" of religion and its twisted concept of God, human beings have been taught that they are of a subservient nature, and therefore servants to their God. It is as if man and woman beget children for their own gratification, and not so those children can forge their own path and destiny in life. Once the human spirit is liberated and lifted to the Godly heights it was destined to reach by its creator, wonderful things will happen, the least of them is true happiness on this earth.

With The Pandora Deception, Bruns and Olson return with a captivating portrayal of modern day combat that "compares with the best of the timeless classics by Tom Clancy, Dale Brown, and Stephen Coonts." (Mark Greaney) To effectively combat the rise of global terrorism, the U.S. military must now rely on more than traditional weapons and tactics. Don Riley of the U.S. Cyber Command is given charge of a brand new effort: a new team in the CIA Operations Directorate called Emerging Threats. To establish this team he recruits three talented recent commissioned naval officers—Janet Everett, Michael Goodwin, and Andrea Ramirez—and together they uncover a new terrorist group. The group is going under the name of the Mahdi, a messiah figure of Islamic mythology, and is operating in the geopolitical tinderbox that is the Nile River basin. But the Mahdi is no ordinary terrorist group. Their stock in trade is not the usual suicide bombings and surprise attacks. In fact, the Mahdi has created and is about to release the worst kind of weapon: a hugely destructive bioweapon, known as Pandora, with a devastating fatality rate. And it will take all the resources that the U.S. can bring to bear—intelligence assets, cyber warfare and military assaults—to not only find out who is really behind the Mahdi, but to stop them before they successfully destroy the balance of power in the Middle East.

In The Icarus Deception, Seth Godin's most inspiring book, he challenges readers to find the courage to treat their work as a form of art Everyone knows that Icarus's father made him wings and told him not to fly too close to the sun; he ignored the warning and plunged to his doom. The lesson: Play it safe. Listen to the experts. It was the perfect propaganda for the industrial economy. What boss wouldn't want employees to believe that obedience and conformity are the keys to success? But we tend to forget that Icarus was also warned not to fly too low, because seawater would ruin the lift in his wings. Flying too low is even more dangerous than flying too high, because it feels deceptively safe. The safety zone has moved. Conformity no longer leads to comfort. But the good news is that creativity is scarce and more valuable than ever. So is choosing to do something unpredictable and brave: Make art. Being an artist isn't a genetic disposition or a specific talent. It's an attitude we can all adopt. It's a hunger to seize new ground, make connections, and work without a map. If you do those things you're an artist, no matter what it says on your business card. Godin shows us how it's possible and convinces us why it's essential. 'If Seth Godin didn't exist, we'd need to invent him' Fast Company 'Seth Godin is a demigod on the web, a bestselling author, highly sought-after lecturer, successful entrepreneur, respected pundit and high-profile blogger' Forbes Seth Godin is the author of thirteen international bestsellers that have changed the way people think about marketing, the ways ideas spread, leadership and change including Permission Marketing, Purple Cow, All Marketers are Liars, The Dip and Tribes.

Deception: Seduced by Lies, Saved by Love By Marleshia Pickett-Mills My relationship was perfect, or so I thought, and you would have, too, if you were on the outside looking in because it was wrapped in shiny paper topped with a fancy bow. But when you begin to unwrap the package and peel back the layers, you will be just as shocked as I was when you are faced with the sheer naked truth, the hard fact that the man that I am in love with, and have shared my life and a child with, also (allegedly) loves men! My name is Riley Patterson, and this is my story of how I was “knocked” down by deception…. Writing Deception: Seduced by Lies, Saved by Love was an extremely emotional experience for author Marleshia Pickett-Mills, as it deals with something so sensitive in nature many people are afraid to talk about. She wants each reader to feel as though they are reading about themselves, like they are there.
