Not wanting to settle down, Reba began meeting quite a few men in
her days; just enjoying the single life, for once. She was starting
to learn that all of the money in the world doesn't bring happiness
or love, but it does bring a controlling sense of power. Power to
have fancy cars, luxury hotels and the best five-star restaurants
in the world.
The events and stories documented in this book occurred during
World War Two, all over the world, and were personally narrated by
the veterans who lived them. The stories are divided by theater of
operation- European and Pacific; all others went into the third
section. Sixty-eight men have given their oral histories in this
record.
Letia Speaks 2 is a poetry book that deals with every day issues
that we all face.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) Partnership for
Peace (PFP) initiative was unveiled at the January 1994 NATO summit
at Brussels, Belgium. PFP contained, in part, the Alliance's
response to the challenge since the end of the Cold War whether,
when, and how to expand eastwards. Twenty-seven countries,
including Russia, have formally taken up NATO's open-ended offer of
closer political and military cooperation. Poland, Hungary, and the
Czech Republic have been the loudest in expressing their desire for
full NATO membership. With the end of the Cold War, Russia has lost
the hegemony it won over East Central Europe in 1945, an objective
deeply rooted in Russian history, and with it the buffer it deemed
necessary for its protection. Many in Russia have voiced their
intentions to ensure this region remains within the country's
sphere of influence and are vehemently opposed to NATO expansion.
This paper proposes that NATO expansion into East Central Europe is
ill advised at this pivotal period in Russian history, and should
be delayed until the Russian economy and democratic government
become more stable. It also argues that the prospects for long-term
political and economic stability in East Central Europe rests not
with NATO, but in the European Union (EU). Following an in-depth
analysis of Russian and East Central European history in
conjunction with a comprehensive review of the current literature
on NATO expansion, this study concludes that admitting Poland,
Hungary, and the Czech Republic is fraught with danger. It is
likely to foster insecurity, and not the intended enhanced European
security framework NATO seeks. NATO expansion in the region also
might precipitate Russian's estrangement and the redivision of
Europe into two competitive spheres, the same divisions it spent
four decades trying to erase.
Define a healthy relationship. Is it filled with trust, respect,
honesty, communication? There must be a balance in the "power and
control." A relationship takes two. It is a partnership. The
responsibility, financial or otherwise, should never rest on the
shoulders of one. It should be a shared responsibility. What
happens when there is an imbalance in this power and control, when
the one person who has accepted this responsibility abuses it? You
find yourself in an unhealthy relationship where domestic violence
could occur frequently and severely. The Plus Factor is an
autobiographical account of my journey from tragedy to triumph. It
is a survivor's story that describes in vivid detail what happens
when love becomes violent. Domestic violence did not ruin my life:
it gave me a second chance to live, all the while learning to love
myself again in the process. If my story mirrors your life, know
that there is help available for you.

The purpose of this book is to help the users of computerised
statistical packages make the correct statistical choices to match
the data they have already collected. It is assumed that the reader
has information available on the use of the statistical package.
While most statistical packages will perform whatever statistical
analyses the user chooses, the package will not help the user in
the selection of the choice or in the interpretation of the
results. Thus, a statistical package is only a tool. While
statistical packages come with instructions on their use, the user
must know how to apply the package to the data available and how to
read the results printed. The book provides a simple to understand,
step-by-step guide for the user of any computerised statistical
package. This book is designed to bivariate (two variables tested
together) data analysis.
