Taffy Douglas, the real bitch in charge, is the mama of three sexy, smart, and highly creative daughters who use their "skills" through internet video porn to make paper. Chyna, Karrine, and Simone have a hands-off approach when it comes to men. They prefer to handle their business with high-dollar ballers who are willing to pay up for a sneak peek at the sisters from the other side. Captain save-a-ho is not Taffy's profession; kickin' ass and savin' some for later is. So, all bets are off when Taffy's money-makin' daughters refuse to play by her rules. The chips must fall where they may. When the secretive man in Chyna's life finds himself down on bended knee to propose, will she accept, knowing that Mama ain't down with it? Sassy Simone will meet her match, but he comes in the form of a stalker who terrorizes her through the internet. She's definitely afraid, but not as afraid as Karrine, who catches a bullet in her back for seeking the real truth about family secrets that have been buried for years. These money-makin' mamas will have to hold on tight, because they are in for one wild ride.
This crazy Mama and her highly troublesome daughters are back and they’re making much noise. Karrine can’t keep her hands off Taffy’s main man, Honey, but falling for him will sting like an attack from a swarm of bees. Their relationship has plenty of ups and downs, but through it all, Mama will be the one who eventually saves them or tears them apart. Many of Mama’s lifelong secrets will be revealed, too, and when more people discover that she is the mastermind behind the empire Honey has successfully operated for years, plenty of heads will roll and more dead bodies will hit the streets. Mama becomes a real force to be reckoned with, but even she can be brought down. Someone close to her is plotting to do it, and unfortunately, seeking revenge may leave one of these bad divas clinging to life or living a life sentence in prison, where many believe they belong.

Seriously speaking, large number of ambitious young men and women are under the impression that entrepreneurship is a piece of cake, because there are so many business opportunities available all over the world for them, and they just have to open up the oyster grabbed the pearl inside. What they do not know is that many of these dreams remain just pipedreams, because of lack of proper advice, guidance and even financial resources. I was doing a little bit of research online and I was horrified to see a large number of books written by so-called startup manager gurus, which an ambitious person bought at prices ranging from $19.99 – only for the next 48 hours. Otherwise you will have to buy it at $38.99 and so on – to a higher price range. And all of them spoke about business plans, strategies, markets, setups and business this and that. All right, I learned it all, when I was getting my higher professional qualifications in business administration and management, in the age of the dinosaurs, when Peter Drucker ruled supreme as Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the more things change, the more they remain the same. We business professionals, just loved to make everything so complicated for our future students, to impress them about how knowledgeable we were. We had graphs, plans, flowcharts, and anything else which would look very impressive on the whiteboard or on paper, or on LCD presentations. And everybody would marvel and say, “Wow, our professor, really knows her subject really well, doesn't she. I could not understand half of what she was saying. But it was pretty impressive, yes, sirree, Bob.” Been there done that, confused my students thoroughly. That is why, I am going to write a totally non-confusing book for all the youngsters out there, who have been thoroughly confused by their counselors, guided to within an inch of their lives by their advisors, or have had their gray matter scrambled well by their egghead professors. This book is going to tell you all about general tips and techniques, for ideas for businesses where you are going to be working from your home, and you do not have to go borrowing thousands of dollars for initial start up seed funding, from your bank or from your relatives because you wanted to start big, in keeping with your ego, status and to soothe your own self-respect and to make a splash in the neighborhood or business world.
A sensitive and supportive story to help young children recognize and cope with sadness. “Now when I get sad, I still cry sometimes. I still hide sometimes. But only for a little while. Because now I know ways to feel better.” Sadness can be an overwhelming emotion, especially for young children. But it’s important to know when sadness can be overcome, and when it’s indicative of a greater problem. Sometimes When I’m Sad is an invaluable self-help resource that helps children identify sadness or depression and offers helpful ways to manage it, such as: Talk about it with a parent or a trusted adult or counselor Draw the sadness with crayons Release tension by squishing clay Run and jump around outside Observe nature The word depression is never used in the gentle, child-focused text, but this simple story offers an entrance point for both adults and children to identify and address childhood depression symptoms early. This timely resource is a wonderfully gentle way to take steps toward banishing the stigma around mental illness. A special section at the back of the book provides support for adults, from an explanation of the difference between sadness and depression to helpful tools to manage the illness. Especially useful for counselors, social workers, teachers, parents, and any other adults caring for children who struggle with dark feelings. Sometimes When Collection With quiet, sensitive illustrations, the Sometimes When collection helps young children work through big feelings, such as sadness and anger. The stories are accessible to children and grounded in research from an author with over thirty years of experience as a clinical psychologist. A special section at the back of each book provides more information and activities to help young children work through their feelings.
Here is the inspiring story behind the Veterans Day red poppy, a symbol that honors the service and sacrifices of our veterans. When American soldiers entered World War I, Moina Belle Michael, a schoolteacher from Georgia, knew she had to act. Some of the soldiers were her students and friends. Almost single-handedly, Moina worked to establish the red poppy as the symbol to honor and remember soldiers. And she devoted the rest of her life to making sure the symbol would last forever. Thanks to her hard work, that symbol remains strong today. Author Barbara Elizabeth Walsh and artist Layne Johnson worked with experts, primary documents, and Moina's great-nieces to better understand Moina's determination to honor the war veterans. A portion of the book's proceeds will support the National Military Family Association's Operation Purple®, which benefits children of the US Military.
