  "A memoir of a frenzied woman" Frank Dungan, TV Producer/Emmy Winning Writer 
  "Joyce Fidler tells a mind-blowing story. Being a musician myself who tripped through that era I knew from the first that this was real, but Fidler's unique POV made it a brand-new experience. I didn't think that I could be shocked, but particular parts of her story left me wide-eyed. The spiritual message left me teary-eyed." Gene Herd, Executive Director of the Hollywood Radio and Television Society (ret.)

  Imagine losing a loved one in the public eye.   A media frenzy ensues and spreads your family name through the news. Reporters ambush you, and across the country, strangers gossip about your personal loss.   Welcome to the circus.   No one understands better than Kim Goldman the complex emotions of individuals suffering a personal tragedy under the relentless gaze of the media. During the famed O.J. Simpson trial, Kim, whose brother, Ron Goldman, was brutally murdered, became the public poster child for victims suffering in the public eye.   In Media Circus, Goldman, now a dedicated victims' advocate who works with families across the country, presents the first collective look at these ordinary, grieving victims—forced to manage their very private trauma and despair in a very public way.   Through candid interviews and detailed, original reporting, Media Circus delivers riveting, humanizing, and inspiring stories from the victims and survivors of violent crimes who found themselves the focus of national media attention. Its heartfelt narratives showcase the unique challenges of coping with and healing from grief when the whole world is watching.   In these pages, the families of other victims tell their stories, including:  Esaw And Emerald Garner, wife and daughter of police brutality victim Eric Garner (2014)  Scarlett Lewis, mother of six-year-old Newtown tragedy victim Jesse Lewis (2012)  Debra Tate, sister of Charles Manson murder victim Sharon Tate (1969)  Judy Shepard, mother of gay hate-crime victim Matthew Shepard (1998)  Mildred Muhammad, ex-wife of the DC Sniper (2002)  Tere Duperrault Fassbender, survivor of family's brutal murder at sea (1961)  Collene Campbell, sister of murdered NASCAR driver Mickey Thompson (1988)  Marie Monville, wife of the Amish Shooter (2006)  Dave And Mary Neese, parents of teen murder victim Skylar Neese (2012)  Scott And Kathleen Larimer, parents of Aurora theater shooting victim John Larimer, and  Shirley Wygal, mother of Aurora theater shooting victim Rebecca Wingo (2012)   Media Circus goes beyond the names and faces to show the real victims behind the stories.

  Two Oppositional Figures in Church History Shed Light on Division in the Church Today
  Our current culture seems to be increasingly divided on countless issues, including those affecting the church. But for centuries, theological disagreements, political differences, and issues relating to church leadership have made it challenging for Christians to foster unity and love for one another.
  In this book, author Tim Cooper explores this polarization through the lives of two oppositional figures in church history: John Owen and Richard Baxter. Cooper highlights their individual stories while showing how their contrasting life experiences, personalities, and temperaments led to their inability to work together. After exploring these lessons from the past, readers will gain insights into their own relationships, ultimately learning how to love and live in harmony with their fellow believers despite their disagreements.
  
  - Timely: In today's deeply divided culture, this book offers past examples to help spur unity among believers today
  - Historical: Biographical examination of two Puritan writers from the 17th century: John Owen and Richard Baxter
  - Accessible: Short format and crisp writing style offer an engaging story with no background knowledge required

  Cheka The: The History of the...

  The KGB is one of the most famous abbreviations of the 20th century, and it has become synonymous with the shadowy and often violent actions of the Soviet Union’s secret police and internal security agencies. In fact, it is often used to refer to the Soviet state security agencies throughout its history, from the inception of the inception of the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission) in 1917 to the official elimination of the KGB in 1992. Whether it’s associated with the Russian Civil War’s excesses, Stalin’s purges, and even Vladimir Putin, the KGB has long been viewed as the West’s biggest bogeyman during the second half of the 20th century. 
  	However, the KGB did not appear out of thin air. Naturally, the earliest Soviet leaders utilized intelligence agencies that collected information both abroad and within the Soviet Union, targeting foreign opponents and domestic opponents alike. Lenin did not imagine the scale of the opposition he would have to face after the revolution, and he quickly came to the conclusion that "a special system of organized violence" must be created to implement the dictatorship of the proletariat. 
  	Thus, from nearly the beginning of the Bolshevik takeover of Russia, Lenin and his successors established and relied on a particularly ruthless agency: the All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage, later abbreviated to the Extraordinary Commission. Known colloquially as the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission), it soon became as feared by non-socialists as the Tsar’s secret police had ever been. The main means approved by the Council of People's Commissars on December 20, 1917, which the Cheka had to use to fight the counter-revolution, were "seizure of property, resettlement, deprivation of cards, publication of lists of enemies of the people, etc."
