For the Bees - A Handbook for...

Tara Dawn Chapman

A handbook for what to expect the first year of beekeeping and beyond. 
 
 
 
The path to becoming a successful beekeeper begins with a deep understanding of the bees themselves. Taking an approach that is both holistic and practical, Tara Chapman, founder and operator of Austin's beloved Two Hives Honey, begins with a primer on honey bee biology and nutrition as well as beehive architecture. (Did you ever wonder why honey combs are composed of tiny hexagons?) A little scientific knowledge goes a long way: a beekeeper who understands how these fascinating creatures work will be better equipped to recognize a particular colony's needs, make sound decisions when the unexpected happens, and adapt their care regimen to changing conditions. Moving beyond the basics, Chapman shows potential beekeepers how to spot pests and diseases; manage swarms (those bees aren't angry; they're just looking for a good home); and, of course, harvest delicious homegrown honey. 
 
 
 
Imbued with the joy of the beekeeping journey, For the Bees provides practical visual explanations through appealing illustrations, that, alongside Chapman's own stories from the bee yard, share the charms of these essential insects.

CKS Child Kidnapping Services -...

Dawson Manning

Retired and relaxing at the pool on a hot, sunny Texas afternoon was the perfect way to start summer early. Life was perfect.
So they thought.
Clark and his wife, Jamie, are the proud parents of two adopted girls. Clark is a Christian who became a believer in adulthood. His faith has been his guide and was the foundation of how he and his wife raised the children.
Life was perfect.
Suddenly, life was not perfect. In fact, Clark and Jamie lived Job’s life from the Old Testament. It seemed as if everything around them was being taken from them. Life was no longer perfect. It was on that hot sunny day in Texas when their youngest daughter was ripped away from their family. Kidnapped!
This story is the true account of lies, deceit, delusions, and corruption. The belief in their justice system crumbled. Guilty! Before proven innocent is the new lay of the land. Evil is now disguised as what is called: “Protective Services” … Child Protective Services.
This book contains true facts and events that have been carefully checked and documented. Only the names have been changed.
Will Clark and Jamie ever get their daughter back? Or will they face more problems after challenging the system? What will happen to a disabled teenager lost in the system? Should Clark and Jamie just be quiet, or should they speak out? When did it become legal to kidnap a child?
This big question is: Is it right for them to confront the regime?
Life is not always perfect.
However, they have a perfect God.
