In this stunning true crime thriller of Facebook, catfishing, and
jealousy, a double-murder begins with the click of a button. When
Bill Payne and Billie Jean Hayworth began their romance, they
unknowingly set in motion a diabolical plot that would end with
them murdered in their own home, Hayworth holding their mercifully
unharmed infant. Chris was a CIA agent who was concerned about
Jenelle. Seeing the cyberbullying she had endured, and worried for
her safety, Chris got in touch with Jenelle’s protective parents,
and her devoted boyfriend, warning them that Payne and Hayworth
were a danger to Jenelle. He got especially close with Jenelle’s
mother, Barbara, who thought of Chris like a son, though she had
never met him. Chris claimed that surveillance of Payne and
Hayworth revealed that the two of them were planning on harming
Jenelle, that it was imminent, and that something needed to be done
immediately. Chris promised that he would have their back if they
were to act to protect Jenelle. And so they did. Jenelle’s
father, Buddy, and her boyfriend, Jamie, broke into the home of
Payne and Hayworth and murdered them in their own home. What the
police investigation turned up, though, made this crime all the
more terrifying. Jenelle had been Chris the entire time, catfishing
her family and her boyfriend to act in vengeance on her behalf.
Using forensic linguistics and diving through the brambles that
Jenelle laid to cover her tracks, police were able to put together
a chilling portrait of a sociopath, made all the more ruthless by
the anonymity of her online life. Bizarre and unforgettable, Dennis
Brooks examines the crime and trial from all angles, bringing his
expertise as the lead prosecutor in the strange and disturbing
case.
In this volume, the latest in the bestselling series of
self-assessment color reviews, the authors provide systematic
coverage of the subject as randomized self-assessment case
presentations: integrated questions, superb illustrations, color
photos, imaging, diagrams, tables and detailed explanatory answers.
There are 251 illustrated cases and the authors have emphasized the
more common ophthalmic conditions presented to veterinarians in
practice. The differential diagnoses, examination techniques, and
therapies for these ocular conditions are discussed within specific
cases.
While ophthalmic problems relating to dogs and cats are often
similar, this is not always the case. For that reason, the authors
have distinguished the canine cases from the feline in the listing
of the 'Broad classification of cases'.
The book is designed to appeal to veterinary students preparing
for exams, and to veterinary practitioners in their continuing
professional development.

event that will trigger the end times. Can John divert those who
would discover his secret, or will curious friends and suspicious
enemies spark the apocalypse? The Last Apostle is the first in the
series of novels on the life of John over the last two millennia.
"Read Write Speak Better English" uses the new phonetic alphabet
(Fonikz) to teach reading with phonics. Students learn to read and
speak English quickly with this new multi sensory/programed
learning process. Reading out loud is also part of the process. The
study techniques include visualization, syllabication,
pronunciation, syllable stress, silent association, formatted vowel
symbols, and spelling drills. This course does three things: It
helps those who speak English improve their speech, comprehension,
and reading speed. It is also for ESL students who want to improve
their English on their own. With programmed learning, students
learn to read on their own simply by studying and reading the book.
This book teaches students to learn to read the individual symbols
of the alphabet and phonetic alphabet first. Next, it teaches them
to focus on the vowel sounds as they read the alphabetic and
phonetic stories out loud. To read well, they must blend sounds,
syllables, and words into sentences. This means that students must
learn to decode and read words sound-by-sound and
syllable-by-syllable. To do that, they must practice reading both
the alphabetic and phonetic spelling of each word before voicing
it.
English reading is more complex than regular reading because
English has two sets of symbols: alphabetic and phonetic. English
readers must convert alphabetic symbols into phonics before
expressing them as spoken words. This makes learning to read faster
a difficult task without phonics: exchange = ekschanj. Note: This
workbook is for advanced, experienced readers. If you are just
learning to read, it might be better to start with the workbook,
Early Reading Skills. It starts with the basics such as
alphabetics, phonetics, and syllabication.
Plato's Atlantis is a true story! Now you can learn where it was
located, how it was destroyed, and when it happened. This book also
shows the connection between the pyramids in Mexico and those in
Egypt. It shows that Noah's Great Flood is a periodic event where
the Atlantic Ocean floods the Mediterranean Basin. This periodic
flooding kills off most of the brown skinned population in the area
leaving mostly blacks in Africa and whites in Europe. Before the
next major flood comes along, it takes only a few hundred years for
all of Europe to turn white again and all of Africa to turn black
again. Then it takes thousands of years before the population of
the Mediterranean Basin turns brown again. The last flood is also
the one that destroyed Atlantis. This book also shows how Edgar
Cayce's predicted, that the island of Atlantis would rise again,
has come true. The island rose during the time Cayce predicted it
would happen, but no one knew it was happening. Now it holds a
prestigious gated community.
The introductory price is 50% off. Take advantage of it! This
workbook takes students from preschool up to high school level
reading with a unique multi-sensory word recognition process. The
process includes phonetic decoding, pronunciation drills,
syllabication, enunciation, visualization, memorization, syllable
stress, handwriting, and reading out loud. With this program,
students quickly learn the new phonetic alphabet and the Family of
English sounds. It allows both students and adults to register
words in memory for reading recall in spite of problems with
dyslexia, ADD/ADHD, hearing loss, speech impediments, and other
learning disabilities. The articles in this workbook can be used
for reading skills practice. They teach phonological awareness
while giving students "read out loud" reading practice. Students
may practice reading the articles several times until they can read
them through without making mistakes.
With nearly twenty years of exhaustive research it is back to
basics for former First Sergeant Dennis Brooks, the author of The
Skip a Day Diet. In fact, his approach to a healthy diet and good
nutrition is a bit "boot camp," meaning that his tactics use
simple, methodic, and plainly stated common sense. In this
self-improvement guide, the author uses best-practice methods that
blend biology with physiology for losing weight with his unique
skip-a-day approach. In thirty chapters, he introduces a
revolutionary approach to eating to get full during the first
twenty-four hours, resulting in a decrease of appetite the
following day. Written in a marvelously easy-to-read style, it
helps men and women of all ages obtain their ideal weight. The
author declares: Give the Skip a Day Diet two days and learn how
the diet forces the body to release stored fat that you
deliberately target and burn, which leads to permanent weight loss.
Readers have nothing to lose-but weight
In Atlantis Was America: Tampa Was the Royal City, author Dennis
Brooks examines the ancient writings of Plato for clues to the true
location of the lost continent of Atlantis, illuminating
fascinating details that show the way. Based on Plato's geographic
descriptions, as well as contemporary discoveries such as the
underwater "Bimini Road" in the Caribbean, Brooks presents the
arresting theory that the legendary Atlantis was actually the
landmass known today as the Americas, with the modern city of
Tampa, Florida at its heart.
