God Don't Like Aholes - Or...

Doc King Cole

This is an educational entertainment humor filled with real life experiences. It is unconventional in nature. Topics such as dealing with Assholes in all walks of life, and what not to do with cantankerous people. Yet it deals with God, What Men and Women Really Want, Blog Movie Reviews, PTSD, Alcoholism, Why Losing in Short Run is Better in the Long Run, Teaching; How to Teach to Students Who Are Jacked, and Achieving Any Goal, if You Believe in God and Yourself.This is a book based on experiences, research, Moreover the quote God Don’t Like A-holes is from my late father. My late sister knitted the quote and framed it for him years ago. To be sure I did not understand why he used this expression. Ironically, this came to life around his 54th birthday, which is my age at the moment. The older I grow, the more this idiom makes sense. The point is, those who mistreat you does not mean you should do the like. Anger manifested becomes a consuming fire, and does more damage to yourself. You may be familiar with the expression, ‘Do not burn your bridges.’This work is more aimed at ironing out my failures so you do not try them. Such as trying out for Pro Soccer at the age of 47 without any experience, applying and interviewing to be a CEO of Elderly Care Service in England with no experience, working as a bouncer while teaching full time, returning to the military at the age of 40, allowing a step sister to borrow your car, borrowing other people’s property like wives, or thinking God wouldn’t see me steal soldiers or match box cars at the age of 9. Moreover, not shutting up when confronted by supervisors about suggestions, or being corrected, or telling your fellow Marines in Norway they have a free day coming up before the command puts the word out.Furthermore, historical anecdotes, and topics such as the useless Veterans Preference points for jobs, teaching, bartending, and the topic of Branding, musicmaking, writing, fitness, prayer, and God will all be covered.

The Nature of Desert Nature -...

Gary Paul Nabhan

In this refreshing collection, one of our best writers on desert places, Gary Paul Nabhan, challenges traditional notions of the desert. Beautiful, reflective, and at times humorous, Nabhan's extended essay also called "The Nature of Desert Nature" reveals the complexity of what a desert is and can be. He passionately writes about what it is like to visit a desert and what living in a desert looks like when viewed through a new frame, turning age-old notions of the desert on their heads. 
 
 
 
Nabhan invites a prism of voices—friends, colleagues, and advisors from his more than four decades of study of deserts—to bring their own perspectives. Scientists, artists, desert contemplatives, poets, and writers bring the desert into view and investigate why these places compel us to walk through their sands and beneath their cacti and acacia. We observe the spines and spears, stings and songs of the desert anew. Unexpected. Surprising. Enchanting. Like the desert itself, each essay offers renewed vocabulary and thoughtful perceptions. 
 
 
 
The desert inspires wonder. Attending to history, culture, science, and spirit, The Nature of Desert Nature celebrates the bounty and the significance of desert places.

Everybody Wins - Four Decades of...

James Wallis

Ever wondered when board games got so good? 
 
The last forty years have seen nothing short of a revolution in the world of tabletop games. No longer synonymous with family arguments over a game of Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit, board games and the once niche hobby of tabletop gaming have moved into the mainstream over the last four decades, with modern  
classics like CATAN, Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne becoming established household names. 
 
In this informative and entertaining volume, this revolution in tabletop gaming is revealed and reviewed by one of the most knowledgeable commentators there is.  
 
James Wallis explores the evolving world of board games through the lens of the Spiel des Jahres, Germany’s prestigious Game of the Year award, looking at a host of past winners catapulted to worldwide popularity, once lauded games now sadly forgotten, and a few popular hits that somehow missed out. Alongside this, Wallis  
expertly chronicles the increasing sophistication in the design of modern board games and their ever growing variety.  
 
Everybody Wins is a book for anyone who loves games, wonders what all the fuss is about or just wants to know what to play next—the essential, hugely readable study of the modern board game.
