Farming strategies vary tremendously around the world, from my home farm in Colorado to those in Brazil, Sudan, Papua New Guinea, Mozambique.

Only the men are eating and when they are sated the women come to eat what is left over. Notice the only the right hands are touching the food. The left hand is considered foul and would contaminate the food.

Whether you’re interested in philosophy and science fiction or simply curious about the human experience, I Am Machine will engage your brain in a way unlike any other book in your personal library.

How much control do we truly have over our lives? What else is out there? Are there parallel universes and alternative realities that we aren’t aware of? Just what is possible in infinite space? Ramona has traveled broadly in our galaxy, the Milky Way, and shares her hypotheses about life and free will, but it’s up to you to decide what you think the universe holds.

The Rise to Power (Revised Edition) (The Legacy Series, 1) by David Francis Cook https://www.amazon.com/stores/David-Francis-Cook/author/B0C7XFH46F Get ready for the heart-pounding thrills of The Legacy Series – a captivating adventure that combines the best of The Da Vinci Code and National Treasure. Follow James Bannerman throughout history as he seeks to answer those driving questions: “Why are we here?” and “What is our purpose?” If a family can respect its heritage and forefathers, any member can rise to greatness. But the evils of human nature and temptations of life must first be overcome. In The Rise to Power, the first book in The Legacy Series, Cartius, who lives in the previous age of Atlantis, faces a dire choice. He can go with his father to a different star system and continue his way of life at an even higher level of dimension—or he can choose to die, reincarnate, and save his planet.

He also leaves his teleportation chair to a faithful servant, and the chair makes its way, under lock and key, to its place as a regal throne in the East Wing of Bannerman's estate. The decisions Bannerman must face—in a world intertwined with marriage, love affairs, human intrigue, and deception—will define his future. And that of many. A family can become a small nation, then a large nation, and then a great nation with a great legacy. But first it must uncover its true spiritual knowledge. James Bannerman will find the key to that lies in the throne.

A Time Like No Other: My Journey 1946-1967 by Ken Rand Kenrand.net https://www.amazon.com/Time-Like-No-Other-1946-1947/dp/1969865504 Historians have labeled the 50s and 60s as a ‘time of innocence, and many feel it was the greatest generation. In the early 50s, we witnessed the birth of television (in black and white). And it was live TV, where the unpredictable could-and would-happen. People felt safe, and it wasn’t unusual for them to leave their cars and front doors unlocked. In the 50s and 60s, we did not have cell phones or computers for texting and email. We communicated by talking to each other (sometimes for hours) and we wrote ‘hand-written’ letters; imagine that. Things were so different then. Milk and meat tasted different, and even tap water tasted better, (bottled water? What’s that?), It was also a time when women’s rights and the civil rights movement gained momentum. The world was beginning to change. I have two goals in writing this book. One is to share my personal life journey and memories with you, and the other is to provide you with a picture of what was happening in the world, especially in the United States, at that time. You will soon draw your own conclusions about whether the time in which we baby boomers were brought up was truly “A Time Like No Other.” If you were born in the 50s or 60s, I know you will cherish this journey and my personal stories. If you weren’t, then sit back, relax, read, and enjoy what you’ve missed. Put on your seatbelts. About the author Ken Rand is an award-winning math instructor who retired in 2015 after forty-seven years of teaching. His teaching experiences include a variety of educational levels, beginning with JHS in the Bronx, New York, and then HS in White Plains, New York, and then two- and four-year colleges in California. Known for his classroom story-telling technique, Ken has found a way to bring those classic stories to life in his Amazon bestselling book, One Student at a Time: A Teacher's Journey. He is also writing a follow-up book with co-author Kim Thomas titled One Teacher at a Time: Teach-Inspire-Change.

A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and the Craziest Untold Story in NFL History by David Fleming https://www.amazon.com/Big-Mess-Texas-Miraculous-Disastrous/dp/1250374308 Flemfile.com The incredible, untold true story of the 1952 Dallas Texans―the most dysfunctional team in the craziest season in NFL history. Rattlesnakes on the practice field, barroom brawls between teammates, bounced checks, paternity suits, house bombings by the Ku Klux Klan, stadium fields covered in circus-elephant dung, one-legged trainers, humiliating defeats, miraculous wins, All-Pro quarterbacks getting drunk at halftime, strip poker with groupies, and even a future Hall of Fame coach stealing a cab. Nearly lost to history, this singular season in the most football-mad region of the world is a kaleidoscope of every larger-than-life, fictionalized Texas football folktale ever written or filmed, with one incredible twist: it’s all true. Over a fascinating, ten-month rollercoaster ride in 1952, in the waning Wild West days of the NFL, before television turned the game into a corporation, the forgotten Dallas Texans would go down in history as one of the worst (and, wildest) teams of all time and the last NFL team to fail. But not before defying the Jim Crow South, pulling off a Thanksgiving Day miracle against George Halas's famed Chicago Bears and then celebrating with an even more infamous bender that would make Jimmy Johnson's Dallas Cowboys blush. A year later, the NFL buried all traces of the most loveable, dysfunctional, entertaining team in history by secretly rebranding the train wreck Texans as the wholesome, all-American Baltimore Colts, the team that would go on to save pro football. A Big Mess in Texas tells the Texans' tale with all the humor, drama, game action, colorful characters, villains, world-class athletes, civil rights trailblazers, and incredible plot twists of that legendary season.

Capital Evolution: The New American Economy by Seth Levine, Elizabeth MacBride https://www.amazon.com/Capital-Evolution-New-American-Economy/dp/1637747780 Business overtook government. Now what? The future of capitalism isn't left or right—it's forward. In Capital Evolution: The New American Economy, Seth Levine and Elizabeth MacBride deliver a bold and timely reassessment of capitalism in America. Drawing on decades of experience in finance, journalism, and policy, Levine and MacBride argue that capitalism isn't the problem—it's the outdated neoliberal version we've been practicing that's failing us. From the rise of populism to the growing disillusionment among younger generations, the signs of strain are everywhere. But Levine and MacBride reveal how a new consensus—what they call Dynamic Capitalism—is already taking shape, one that balances profit with purpose, empowers the middle class, and addresses the urgent challenges of inequality and climate change. Through compelling stories of leaders like Jamie Dimon, Dan Schulman, Lisa Green Hall, and Larry Fink, Capital Evolution shows how businesses, governments, and individuals can work together to create an economy that works for everyone. This book is a call to action to embrace change, rebuild trust, and ensure capitalism remains the most dynamic force for progress the world has ever known. The future isn't a choice between old ideologies—it's about evolving to meet the needs of a new era. Capital Evolution is a compelling look at the changes taking hold in America's political system, information environment, and society, asking tough questions about the rising power of businesses in our economic system. Drawing on dozens of interviews with CEOs, academics, employees, and thought leaders, venture capitalist and author Seth Levine and journalist Elizabeth MacBride boldly challenge readers to take a hard look at our divisions and their impact on American economic supremacy.

America’s First Love by Dana J Bahan https://www.amazon.com/Americas-First-Love-Dana-Bahan/dp/B0FG9V191T In the Foreword of my book, I try to make it abundantly clear that as Christians, protesting government intrusion in our lives, whether it be higher taxes or burdensome policies, must be done peacefully. As a Christian, it is my responsibility to be subject to governing authorities, but it is also my right as a part of the governed to question decisions made by government officials that endanger constitutional and inalienable God-given rights. *** As Proverbs 29:2 accurately states, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” The love of correct principles, not the love of a party, is the key to effective political involvement; the government of this nation will be blessed only to the extent that God-fearing and moral individuals are placed into office. Benjamin Rush He was our first president. He was voted into office unanimously. He was a devout Christian. He led the Revolutionary War against Britain and won. He offered freedom and property to slaves who fought in the war. He refused pressure to become king. He did not belong to a politi- cal party, and he sternly warned us that excessive allegiance to a political party would lead to corruption. George Washington

The Royal We by Roddy Bottum of Fate No More https://www.amazon.com/Royal-We-Roddy-Bottum/dp/1636142699 A founder of the iconic band Faith No More shares his coming-of-age and out-of-the-closet story in pre–tech boom San Francisco THE ROYAL WE is a poetic survey of a time set in a magical city that once was and is no more. It is a memoir written by Roddy Bottum, a musician and artist, that documents his coming of age and out of the closet in 1980s San Francisco, a charged era of bicycle messengers, punk rock, street witches, wheatgrass, and rebellion. The book follows his travels from Los Angeles, growing up gay with no role models, to San Francisco, where he formed Faith No More and went on to tour the world relentlessly, surviving heroin addiction and the plight of AIDS, to become a queer icon. The book is an elevated wallop of tongue and insight, much more than a tell-all. There are personal encounters with public figures like Kurt and Courtney and Guns N' Roses, and recaps of gold records and arena rock―but it's the testimonies of tragedy and addiction and preposterous life-spins that make this work so unique and intriguing. Bottum writes about his dark and harrowing past in a clear-eyed voice that is utterly devoid of self-pity, and his emboldened and confident pronouncements of achievement and unorthodox heroism flow in an unstoppable train that's both captivating and inspirational.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Human Resources: A Concise Guide by Dr. C. Rasmussen https://www.amazon.com/Artificial-Intelligence-Machine-Learning-Resources/dp/B0FWZQXHMG Curtisrasmussen.focalpointcoaching.com What if a computer could help find the perfect employee or predict who might leave a job? This exciting idea opens the door to a new way of working. Overview This guide explains how artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming human resources (HR). Smart computer programs can quickly review thousands of job applications to find the best candidates, suggest training tailored to employees’ needs, and predict which workers might quit, helping managers take action to keep them. The book includes real-world examples, like how large companies use AI to save time, and covers benefits, such as improved hiring, as well as key concerns, like protecting personal information. At just 61 pages, it's concise by design, following Richard Feynman's wisdom: “If you can’t explain something simply, you don’t understand it well enough.” More pages don't equal more value; in fact, lengthy texts can bury useful insights. Since every organization is unique, this book equips HR professionals and managers with the right questions to ask rather than a rigid roadmap, making it a practical tool for anyone curious about the future of work. About the author Dr. Curtis “Curt” Rasmussen is a leading expert in industrial-organizational psychology with a Ph.D. from Walden University. He specializes in blending human skills with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to make workplaces better and more efficient. With years of experience in research, consulting, and government roles, he helps businesses use data and tech wisely. His career highlights include owning Cyber-Human Performance Tech, LLC, where he advises small and mid-sized companies on adding AI to hiring and daily tasks while keeping things ethical. He also guides students in George Mason University’s Data Engineering program, focusing on AI tools like natural language processing and computer vision. At the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), he led workforce planning as a senior I/O psychologist, creating surveys and frameworks that improved employee satisfaction by 45% and helped with smarter hiring. Earlier, he reviewed AI and data science proposals for the Department of Commerce, National Academy of Medicine, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, making sure projects were strong and fair. Dr. Rasmussen has invented patent-pending tools like the Multidimensional Algorithm Structure (MAS), which picks the best AI methods by checking data and company needs, and the eXplainable Artificial Intelligence Construct (XAIC), which makes AI easy to understand and trust by involving people in decisions. These ideas help fix common AI problems, like failures or hidden biases.

Midnight Flyboys: The American Bomber Crews and Allied Secret Agents Who Aided the French Resistance in World War II by Bruce Henderson https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1668051419 Brucehendersonbooks.com The untold history of a top-secret operation in the run-up to D-Day in which American flyers and Allied spies carried out some of the most daring cloak-and-dagger operations of World War II. In 1943, the OSS—precursor to the CIA—came up with a plan to increase its support to the French resistance forces that were fighting the Nazis. To start, the OSS recruited some of the best American bomber pilots and crews to a secret airfield twenty miles west of London and briefed them on the intended mission. Given a choice to stay or leave, every airman volunteered for what became known as Operation Carpetbagger. Their dangerous plan called for a new kind of flying: taking their B-24 Liberator bombers in the middle of the night across the English Channel and down to extremely low altitudes in Nazi-occupied France to find drop zones in dark fields. On the ground, resistance members waited to receive steel containers filled with everything from rifles and hand grenades to medicine and bicycle tires. Some nights, the flyers also dropped Allied secret agents by parachute to assist the French partisans. Though their story remained classified for more than fifty years, the Carpetbaggers ultimately received a Presidential Unit Citation from the US military, which declared: “it is safe to say that no group of this size has made a greater contribution to the war effort.” Along with other members of the wartime OSS, they were also awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. Based on exclusive research and interviews, the definitive story of these heroic flyers—and of the brave secret agents and resistance leaders they aided—can now be told. Written in Bruce Henderson's “spellbinding” (USA TODAY) prose, Midnight Flyboys is an astonishing tale of patriotism, courage, and sacrifice.About the author Bruce Henderson is the author of more than twenty nonfiction books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller AND THE SEA WILL TELL, which was made into a highly-rated TV series.

Shattered Dreams—But Hope: Encouragement for Caregivers of Huntington's Disease and Other Progressive Illnesses by Laquita Higgs, Elton Higgs https://www.amazon.com/Shattered-Dreams-But-Hope-Encouragement-Huntingtons/dp/1400329523 Shattered Dreams–But Hope by Drs. Laquita and Elton Higgs, is a book of both testimony and advice: testimony born out of the school of trial and suffering, and advice born out of practical experience in being long-term caregivers. Laquita and Elton have for the last 26 years been caregivers to two adopted daughters with early onset Huntington's Disease (HD), which is hereditary, and they offer a gripping account of their extended experience in adjusting to the challenges of long-term caregiving, followed by sober practical counsel to others who are involved in similar caregiving experiences. A final chapter speaks specifically of the role of Christian faith in coping with the stresses of their long struggle. In the Appendices are a short talk given after Cynthia's funeral by her older sister Liann and several poems by Elton on the emotional impact of his and Laquita's relationship with their disabled daughters. The complexity of the story told by the Higgses is heightened by the fact that their two youngest adopted daughters are mother (Cynthia) and biological daughter (Rachel). Elton and Laquita adopted Cynthia as a baby, knowing that she had HD in her background but hoping and praying that she would not develop the disease. Her childhood was normal, but when she became an adolescent, she began to manifest behavioral aberrations that her parents later recognized as being consistent with early onset HD. At age 25, Cynthia was diagnosed as having the disease, and soon afterward she became pregnant with Rachel. Since it was apparent that she could not function as a single mother, Laquita and Elton agreed to adopt Rachel at birth. This action ushered them into a complicated care-giving relationship that has lasted for more than 25 years. Laquita and Elton emphasize the difficult but necessary development of trust in God's goodness and a deep conviction that He is at work even when we can perceive no immediate evidence of it. Especially poignant is their very personal confession of their mistakes in caring for their HD-affected daughters and their struggles to understand that HD, not mere perversity, was the primary source of their daughters' irrational and angry behavior. Thus, they had to accept that expecting their daughters to be normally responsible persons was both futile and unproductive. Instead, they had to learn simply to love them with God's love and to pray constantly for God's wisdom in carrying out their task. It is from this perspective of learning to survive through hardship that Laquita and Elton tell their story and offer both practical and spiritual counsel for caregivers everywhere.
