They embark upon a two-week canoeing trip into unchartered northern territory. While deep in the wilderness, Patrick is suddenly and unexpectedly separated from Ralph, who is the experienced canoeist and woodsman. Patrick, who has never been successful in any facet of his life, is then forced to take bold and decisive measures just to survive. After successfully overcoming many basic survival challenges, he is confronted with a faction deeply involved in a diabolical scheme to control and dominate the entire world. Patrick Collins single-handedly musters all of his strength, ingenuity, and cunning to thwart their frighteningly evil and deadly plot. More than four decades later, Patrick Collins, now in rapidly failing health, decides to finally reveal the chilling details behind the story of The VonKrueger Faction-a heart-stopping journey that takes many twists and turns in the Canadian wilderness.

After cutting short a vacation with difficult relatives, Paul and Cindy Jason take the scenic route home to Chicago. On impulse, they stop at a farm auction where they meet the owners, Melvin and Minnie Link. Cindy admires an old, hand-carved mirror that comes with an eerie history. For a mere ten dollars, Cindy is the new owner of this unusual mirror that Melvin claims is at least 120 years old. But the Jasons quickly discover that the mirror is no bargain. From the moment the mirror is hung in the apartment, a certain pall hangs over them-and soon it's making them both a little crazy. With the help of Cindy's sister and brother-in-law, the four are unwittingly drawn into a frightening and macabre doorway into another world-the world of the dead, commonly referred to as purgatory. Three decades earlier, a greedy and treacherous character invaded the lives of Minnie and Melvin Link. Unexpectedly granted a supernatural power over the Jason's minds, Minnie attempts to communicate her desperate plight to them with terrifying and unforeseen consequences, and the four find themselves embroiled in an attempt to find justice for the victims of an unsolved thirty-year-old murder.

Just asserting that one is against something is not enough - you must demonstrate the fallacies underlying the ideas of opposing positions, policies and theories. The author discusses Globalism, Multiculturalism, Conspiracies, Free Trade, Finance Capitalism, Chinese ascendancy, War interests, etc., from a theoretical basis. Through analysis of political modes of thought and attitudes, and a demonstration of a natural dispositional "conservatism," the bias toward what is from what was, it is proffered that a normal political culture is aligned with the consensual paradigms of its people. Targeted is the Globalist enterprise of planetary-wide imposition of alien cultural appendages.

WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT FRUCTOSE AND HFCS COULD KILL YOU

Cutting back on the fructose in your diet could save your life -- and shrink your waistline. Table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) -- the primary sources of fructose -- are staples of our food supply, and are even found in foods that aren't necessarily sweet, like breads, soups, ketchup, and salad dressing. These sweeteners are linked to health problems such as obesity, diabetes, and joint and abdominal pain. They may also increase your risk for liver and kidney diseases, premature aging, and certain types of cancer.
