of adoring fans, and parties that last for days. The glitz, the
glamor, and the drinking. In How to Drink Like a Rockstar, Albert
W. A. Schmid offers readers a taste of how the rock stars live with
his various cocktail recipes inspired by some of America's favorite
musicians, from classic rock to contemporary artists. Drinks like
Opera, Jumpin' Jack Flash, and T.N.T pay tribute to bands such as
Queen, the Beatles, and AC/DC, each with a different twist. Every

of artists such as Van Halen's Michael Anthony with his Jack

list the necessary equipment, and provide instructions on how to
make homemade cocktail cherries and syrups but Schmid also includes
rock star life advice so that readers can maximize their rock star
experience. With easy-to-follow glossaries for both rock 'n' roll
and cocktail-making terms alongside a wide array of drinks that
will quench any sort of thirst, How to Drink Like a Rock Star is an

The Genesis Men-Noah & Sons, is the second book of a Bible
Study Series designed for small group use or individual study. The
questions aim to inspire readers to really look at each scriptural
passage, especially the terminology used and the setting in which
the story is told by the Biblical author. This book continues the
history of the men of Genesis by following the family of Noah from
chapters 7 through parts of chapter 11. These verses involve the
first rains that ever fell upon the earth, lasting 40 days and 40
nights resulting in the first flood and destruction for all humans
and animals not housed on the historical boat that Noah and his
sons built. Noah's sons repopulated the earth after the flood
ended.
History often proclaimed the Blackfeet Indians as the most feared
of all the North American tribes, who thought nothing of committing
the cold-blooded massacre of the warriors protecting another
village, but also the slaughtering of old and young alike,
including women, children, and their dogs. They fought with
overwhelming brutality, and felt no remorse for those they
destroyed. Blackfeet warriors spilled the blood of their enemies
everywhere, including onto their own bodies as a symbol of their
triumph. Their battle-axes, clubs, tomahawks, and spears were
permanently stained with blood. They fought to steal, to overwhelm,
and to survive. Men that celebrate their shared love is against
tribal laws, and the custom is to either cast out or kill the
offending boys. Windtalker and Kiyo grew up using their excellent
hunting skills to keep the village supplied with fresh game. During
the winter season, when the tribe moves into the deep gorges to
escape the frigid winds and deep snows, the fighters teach the
young men to attack like warriors by killing without mercy. The
young men are exceptional with bows and arrows, accurate with
spears, and deadly with battle-axes. By spring, they devise a plan
to leave the village by riding across the treacherous ridges and
rivers in the Glacier Mountains. Collecting their cache of supplies
and weapons, they make their escape, seeking a secret valley far
from home. They make many discoveries along the way, including
befriending a settler family, and aiding the cavalry against the
fierce, bloodthirsty renegades. They endeavor to carve out a life
together in a valley so remote, they hope no one will ever find
their new home. Their skills as hunters and warriors are often put
to the test, but nothing can separate or challenge the love of The
Blackfeet Boys.
Edited Revised Edition 2010: Josh and Zeke's penchant for
adventure, passion for love, and a monumental fear for their lives,
have caused them to flee the family plantation in coastal South
Carolina with no destination in mind, only a direction, to head
west to live on the frontier in a land where no one knows who they
are. Lacking experience in a wilderness life, and having little
knowledge of dealing with and defending themselves from the highly
experienced Indian warriors, they willingly leave their eastern
civilization in hopes of finding a place so remote, they could
finally be alone to allow their relationship to grow. Only the
power of their love gives each man the strength, determination, and
fortitude to endure all that the wilderness could fling in their
faces. Their life and love inspire new friends, as they often use
their skills learned in war to put their lives on the line to help
total strangers survive as well. They learn how to hunt wildlife
for food, and track the ferocious Kaga Ozuye demon warriors to
ensure the survival of their new friend Yuma. With the help of an
old ally from their past, and John Bridger-brother of famed
mountain man and explorer James Bridger, they battle renegade
former confederate soldiers, and attacks by a vicious Sioux tribe.
They sought paradise, but soon learn that finding a haven for love
is a constant battle they must fight for, and they would do so,
because they would let no man, beast, or wild Indian stop them. No
matter how tough the fight, their love for each other still
remained supremely more important than all that the world could
throw at them.
TJ Johnson's latest book, Chapter & Verse, Crosswords And Other
Puzzles, Genesis Book Two, is the second part of a puzzle series.
It covers Genesis from Chapters 26 through 50, and includes a few
puzzles that weren't fully reviewed in the first book, which
encompassed Genesis chapters 1 through 25. Many Bible Crossword
books present clues which are located in various verses located
throughout the entire Bible. This prompts a person solving these
puzzles to repeatedly search from one verse in one book to other
verses in different books, Old and New Testaments. This can be a
little unsettling, unless the person already knows the answer. The
uniqueness of TJ's books is that her puzzles are designed to review
information taken directly from specific assigned chapters and
verses. Further, each puzzle concentrates on a particular Bible
story, including verses that apply to the situation being depicted,
ergo, the title of the series, Chapter & Verse. These books
actually promise to help you review and sharpen your knowledge
about a particular circumstance in Bible history which may be
covered in one chapter, or several chapters. TJ says that you may
think you know scripture that you read several days ago, several
weeks ago, or even years before. However, it's recommended that you
review the content often because it's so easy to forget some of the
details. These puzzles can be used as an alternative or addition
for your personal Bible study, or even for group Bible study.
They've been used successfully in presentation of Bible lessons
during Sunday school classes that TJ teaches. She assures the
puzzle lover that even though some are easy and some are
challenging, they all provide a degree of fun as you study the
Bible.
Brett and Chase were complete opposites when they met and fell in
love. Brett, tall and handsome, worked hard every day, never
bounced a check, and continually looked towards a better future.
Chase went from job to job, could not balance his checkbook, and
did not think about the future. Brett loved watching Chase ramble
on like a kid on maturity hold forever. He would not have changed a
thing about Chase, and like many others, watching him dance with
such pure frivolity and happiness, always brought a smile to his
face, and joy to his heart. Their love exceeded their differences,
and the ensuing painful tragedy created a stronger love and deeper
commitment. Chase and Brett's story begins with plans for an exotic
tropical vacation, but their difficult journey takes a tragic turn
within ten miles of their house. Their story is fiction, but
unfortunately, the events of their story continue with gay lovers
all around the world.
The joy of falling in love is fractured with the cannon firing on
Fort Sumter, creating chaos for the military academy cadets,
especially two men from opposing sides. As soldiers, they must
fight, but as lovers, they must flee to the west to avoid fighting
against each other. While the plan for their journey together
seemed simple enough, the invisible walls of war trapped the cadet
from Charleston, while leaving the man from Maine stranded in Saint
Louis. His family abandoned him until they needed him to defend the
plantation, and eventually their Southern way of life. War changed
him, he became a fearless killer, and on many fields of battle, it
nearly killed him, but nothing could stop his determination and
search for the man he loved, and return to their trail to the west.
The War Apart - Part I begins the series, followed by The War Ahead
- Part II, and soon The War Beyond - Part III.
Thad Nigel Thompson, often called TNT by his fans, was by far one
of the best young racecar drivers on the circuit. His big break
came two years ago after obtaining a ride in the top racing series,
and winning the championship his first year. T had money, a
beautiful house, the best racecars, and considered the top star on
the track. He thought he was happy, but away from the track, he
often felt alone. When T met Jack, and everything changed about the
way he thought and felt, but keeping it a secret in the giant sport
of racing was nearly impossible. He felt happier than he had been
in his whole life, but a determined blackmailer set about a plan
exposing his secret to the world. He survived hundreds of wrecks,
including spins, flips, and massive impacts to the wall, and more,
just so he could win. He didn't care about anything that happened
to him, as long as he didn't lose Jack.
This Book is a serious wake-up call for Mushrooms, Lemmings, and
Ostriches. The deeper problem is that most of us humans would
easily fit into any one or more of those three categories much of
the time. Do you really want to know what's going on, even though
it does not seem to be affecting your source of income, food or
general security, and does not interfere with your recreation or
bad habits?
Mushrooms don't know. Lemmings choose to ignore and go with the
flow. Ostriches don't want to know, even though their rear ends are
exposed.
Where do you Fit In?
This book is intended to be a wakeup call for supposedly
well-informed and up to date folks who have depended on our totally
controlled media to keep them up-to-date. A cons-piracy? Government
telling you lies? Gosh, what a surprise
This will be the first book in a series. It begins to reveal what
has really been going on at world control levels behind the scenes,
and who is pushing the buttons, etc. Information brought forward by
Dr. Bill Deagle, Phil Schneider, William Cooper, John Kaminski,
Eric Phelps and others, make much of what is covered in this book
seem insignificant.
However, one has to start somewhere, with some earlier
information, to more completely understand how things have
developed, and continue to evolve at the most powerful levels of
control. It has been said that an educated man makes a very poor
slave.
An informed public will ultimately create a new type of
government, restoring personal freedoms and acknowledged individual
sovereignty. The original U.S. Constitution that was burned by the
British in 1812 intended to achieve those things. This series will
help toward a more informedpublic.
Eric, a former Navy Seal, built a security firm that even the FBI
envied. The core agents were also former Seals who were well paid
to provide elite security for top dollar clients around the world.
His employees knew Eric was gay, but they respected his leadership,
and would die for him if required. He never intended for that
sacrifice to occur. He worked tirelessly, building his company to a
multimillion-dollar enterprise, but Eric still lacked a boyfriend,
a partner, someone that loved him as much as he loved them. In the
wrong setting, he suddenly found a diamond in the rough, a
beautiful young man that roamed the country looking for rich gay
men to rob. He wasn't sure what to do with Tyler, but he knew he
wanted to try. However, Tyler possessed the skills to steal your
wallet and gold, and perhaps his heart and soul. Revised 2010 for
new editing & setting up Part II Crosshairs & Part III Rock
Solid coming soon.
TJ loves college basketball, and the star player of his favorite
team is not only exceptionally talented, and a Player-of-the-Year
candidate, he is without argument...handsome Well, to be honest,
he's spectacular TJ and Shane meet by accident, but the stars must
have lined up just for them. They were opposites in talent, height,
scoring, rebounding, writing, typing, and designing, but the
attraction happen, and fate took an interesting turn. Though the
trend today is for fast romance, quick break-ups, and instant
heartache, they were determined to beat the odds for true love, by
overcoming their secret relationship in the giant world of ardent
fans and mammoth media coverage. It is a fun story that'll make you
laugh, cheer, scream, and applaud as the team seeks the national
championship, while the two boys in love seek nothing less than
pure joy
Revised 2010: On an island, these two teenage boys spent seven
years in exile. Exile is what we land lovers would have called it.
They would call it paradise. It was a special place. They landed at
the age of ten. They knew no prejudices, had no vain reasons to
lie, and felt no effects from political attitudes or wars. They
lived each day happily, knowing and feeling loved and nurtured.
Society missed its chance to ram its inhibitions down their
throats. They experienced no Bible-thumping television evangelist
threatening their souls, nor were they mocked or scorned. No
stuffed shirt generals could threaten to kick them out, and
thankfully, no Sunday schoolteachers spit at them. They felt
contented. They were in love. They were special.
