  ""A gathering of gorgeous short pieces"" (Library Journal), Blue Pastures collects fifteen of Pulitzer Prize– and National Book Award–winning poet Mary Oliver's prose works about nature, writing, and herself. 
  ""This transcendent collection is Oliver's joyful sharing of her love of her craft.""—Library Journal 
  With consummate craftsmanship, Mary Oliver has fashioned fifteen luminous prose pieces: on nature, writing, and herself and those around her. She praises Whitman, denounces cuteness, notes where to find the extraordinary, and extols solitude. Nature speaks to her and she speaks to nature. 
  ""This book is biased, opinionated; also it is also joyful, and probably there is despair here too...But the reader will find the pleasures more certain, and more constant, than the rills of despond. Thus it has turned out in my life thus far, influenced by the sustaining passions: love of the wild world, love of literature, love for and from another person."" –Mary Oliver

Filth & grief distributed by its members, allies, enemies and others. Germicide cleanses our blood and continuously protects it. I clear the air (oxygen) in our blood upon all of our communities. Germicide Raising Queen Street Blood's, a Revelation indeed!

  Moving Target: The Art of Online...

  You reuse passwords. You click links without thinking. You accepted a connection request last week from someone you don't quite remember meeting. You have done at least one of these things in the past thirty days, and so has almost every person you know. 
   
  This book is about what happens next. 
   
  Moving Target: The Art of Online Camouflage follows Stevie Parker, a composite character built from the real experiences of people whose lives collided with cybercrime. Across twelve chapters, Stevie makes the same small, ordinary mistakes most of us make every day while real crime stories play out alongside her, sourced from FBI briefings, ransomware negotiators, fraud victims, and the criminals themselves. 
   
  This is not an IT book. This is a crime book. 
   
  The criminals in these pages are not mysterious hackers in hoodies. They are organized crime syndicates running businesses with quotas, shift changes, HR departments, and performance reviews. They have studied you longer than you have studied them. 
   
  Dean Mauro, host of Cyber Crime Junkies on YouTube, FBI InfraGard member, and VP of Growth at NetGain Technologies, has spent years sitting across from people who just found out. This book is everything he wished someone had told them before that conversation happened. 
   
  You do not need to become a cybersecurity expert. You do not need to build Fort Knox. You just need to stop being the easiest target on the street. The basics work. Camouflage works. And by the end of this book, Stevie Parker is out of range. 
   
  Now it is your turn. 
   
  Book One of The Moving Target Trilogy. Narrated by the author.

  What the Lives of 5 Puritan Women Teach about Holy Living and Devotion to God
  The writings of the Puritans have had a recent resurgence, but many Puritan women have often been overlooked or misunderstood. As mothers, daughters, grandmothers, and wives, the vibrant faith of Puritan women has much to teach modern day readers.
  In 5 Puritan Women: Portraits of Faith and Love, Jenny-Lyn de Klerk shows how the lives and writings of Christian women encourage the beauty of holy living and provide practical wisdom for the home and the church. Each chapter portrays a different Puritan woman—Agnes Beaumont, Lucy Hutchinson, Mary Rich, Anne Bradstreet, and Lady Brilliana Harley—telling their stories of devotion, lament, and family. By studying their faith journeys, modern readers can learn more about their roles in church history and glean insights into the Christian life. 
  
  - Accessible Introduction: An affordable, easy-to-read format to introduce readers to the neglected writings of Puritan women
  - Applicable: Explains the need for, and the value of, studying Puritan women today and highlights spiritual disciplines that these women demonstrate
  - Women in Church History: Broadens the reader's understanding of women's roles in furthering God's kingdom throughout history
  - Foreword by Karen Swallow Prior

  Thomas Burke was born Sydney Thomas Burke on November 29th, 1886 in Eltham, London (at the time it was part of Kent). 
  An author in the early years of the 20th Century Burke brought his skills of pen and eye to parts of London, specifically the Limehouse district of the East End, to write with drive and vigour about the characters he met and the places that he knew.  Whether he turned that material into fiction or non-fiction the words seep quality.  His publications ranged from these wonderful vignettes of down-at-heel London to writings on homosexuality and the English Countryside. 
  Thomas Burke died in the Homeopathic Hospital in Queens Square, Bloomsbury on 22 September 1945.
