  Survive and Thrive 2-In-1...

  When you are properly prepared, your "worst-case scenario" is better than most people's. But there are two crucial possibilities every family must be ready for: a sudden grid-down emergency and the need to evacuate. 
   
  If the power grid fails, it is not just the lights that go out. Your water supply, heating, cooling, cooking, communication, and other essentials may disappear with it. And if an emergency forces you to leave home, even the best stockpile will be of little use without a reliable bug-out plan. 
   
  Survive and Thrive brings together two practical survival guides in one essential collection. Prepare Your Home for a Sudden Grid-Down Situation shows you how to remain safe and self-reliant when the systems you normally depend on stop working. The Bug Out Book helps you decide when to stay, when to leave, what to take, and where to go. 
   
  Inside, you will discover: 
   
  • Immediate solutions for the first few days of a disaster 
  • Emergency backups for households that rely on the grid 
  • Ways to secure clean, safe water 
  • Practical sanitation solutions when normal facilities fail 
  • How to communicate during a grid-down emergency 
  • How to recognize when evacuation is the safest option 
  • How to choose an appropriate bug-out location 
  • How to build a bug-out bag that supports your survival 
  • Route-planning and emergency transportation strategies 
  • Special considerations for children, elderly relatives, and pets 
  • Practical activities, DIY projects, and survival skills for the whole family 
   
  Preparedness means far more than stockpiling supplies. It means knowing how to adapt, make sound decisions, and protect the people who depend on you. 
   
  Prepare your family to survive and thrive, wherever an emergency takes you.

  From surfer and writer Stuart Holmes Coleman, Eddie Would Go is the compelling story of Eddie Aikau's legendary life and legacy, a pipeline into the exhilarating world of surfing, and an important chronicle of the Hawaiian Renaissance and the emergence of modern Hawaii. 
   
   
   
  In the 1970s, a decade before bumper stickers and T-shirts bearing the phrase Eddie Would Go began popping up all over the Hawaiian islands and throughout the surfing world, Eddie Aikau was proving what it meant to be a "waterman." As a fearless and gifted surfer, he rode the biggest waves in the world; as the first and most famous Waimea Bay lifeguard on the North Shore, he saved hundreds of lives from its treacherous waters; and as a proud Hawaiian, he sacrificed his life to save the crew aboard the voyaging canoe Hokule'a.

  Ron Luciano takes you out on the ballfield and into the clubhouse in the biggest and funniest baseball bestseller ever! 
  Here is Ron Luciano, the funniest ump ever to call balls and strikes. A huge and awesome legend who leaps and spins and shoots players with an index finger while screaming OUTOUTOUT!!! Now baseball’s flamboyant fan-on-the-field comes out from behind the mask to call the game as he really sees it. 
  There’s the day the automatic umpire debuted at home plate—and struck out. The time Rod Carew stole home twice in one inning, and Earl Weaver stole second base—and took it back to the dugout. The pitch Tommy John dropped on the mound, which Luciano called a strike. And there’s the fantastic phantom double play, the impossible frozen ice-ball theory, and, another first, Luciano picking Harmon Killebrew off second base. 
  From brawls to catcalls, from dugout jokes to on-the-field pratfalls to one-of-a-kind conversations with baseball’s greats, Ron Luciano, the only umpire who confessed to missing calls, takes a few grand slam swings of his own. It is baseball at its best.

From the streets of El Salvador to stadiums in the United States, Carlos shares how the sport shaped his childhood, connecting him with family, friends, and his cultural roots. His early experiences playing barefoot in neighborhood games capture the joy and freedom soccer brought to his life.

He recounts pivotal moments, including the excitement of witnessing Lionel Messi's debut and following the rise of Inter Miami, a team that became central to his experience of soccer in America. Soccer becomes more than a game; it is a lens through which he understands loyalty, connection, and personal identity.
