Review by Readingcamel --- Collateral Damage - Red Flag projects an
all-too-possible future situation involving China's desire to
reunite Taiwan as part of the PRC. The compelling story unfolds
through shifts in points of view as different characters become the
first person speaker. Because of excellent clarity of locations and
times, this does not lead to any confusion on the reader's part,
and makes for an enjoyable, fast-paced read. Review by Dangrdav ---
Mr Greene has delivered another page turner. Now Mr. Green gives us
a look at the world just a few years from now. The Chinese want
their "renegade province" back and are willing to risk war with the
United States. The US navy has been the best in the world for 70
years but now a new weapons system could change the balance of
power.
Jay Steele had it all. Jay was a successful foreign exchange trader
working for a famous Hong Kong Chinese trading company. He owned a
luxury waterfront condominium with a tremendous view of Hong Kong
harbor, a new BMW 750i Sedan, had a brilliant attractive Chinese
female assistant, and a fabulous Chinese girlfriend who showered
him with love and affection. Greed overcame judgment when he
entered into an illegal business deal with a former NSA computer
hacking expert turned whistleblower. That ill advised relationship
leads to unexpected troubles with love, lies and secrets. The
ending will surprise you as Jay attempts to see both sides of the
NSA spying issue and finds himself trapped in events he can no
longer control.
Poems on abuse with a special insert of Trayvon Martin poems
Cancer is an equal opportunity disease. I have survived three
different episodes over the past fourteen years. Strike 1 (1995):
One of my radiation oncologists gave me a 50 percent chance of
surviving tongue cancer three years disease free. Strike 2 (1997):
Neck cancer restarted my recovery clock. Strike 3 (2008): Diagnosed
with prostate cancer. Fortunately, Life Constricted isn't a
baseball metaphor. It's a commentary on a lifelong swimmer and
chronicles my family's struggle with cancer after my dentist
detected an abnormality during a routine visit. I owe him and my
personal physician my life. They're the core of my medical dream
team. We were forced to retreat from our hurried professional path,
typical of twoincome families in the Bay Area. We rearranged our
priorities and lived life constricted to pursue its greatest
opportunity-love that thrived on hugs, quality time, and laughter.
Celebrate our reversal of misfortune. Read Life Constricted.
This book is a 'bible' of self-help and hope for those who find
themselves unfortunate enough to be suffering from ill health and
disease. The author, who found himself in this situation with a
terrible lung disease, and whose condition was made worse by
conventional medical treatments, set off on a road of discovery and
self help. The book catalogues his own successful treatment and
details the many people who have been helped, and the treatments
used to help them, ranging from cancer(and other dread diseases) to
infertility. Written in a narrative style, it is interesting,
informative and amusing.
