  • Trumpty Dumpty: A Parody Is On The Loose, Trump's Invaded Mother Goose; A Chronicle Of Trumpty Times, Reimagined In Classic Rhymes

    Michael S Luzzi

    Paperback (Boggs Hill Boys Press, April 7, 2018)
    DESCRIPTION OF TRUMPTY DUMPTY Trumpty Dumpty is a unique book of parody rhymes, a cleverly crafted political satire that captures the chaotic journey of Trump & Co. through the campaign and the first year in the White House. Inside these pages, the reader will find Mother Goose characters reimagined as members of the Trumpty cohort that the public has come to know so well - however brief their time on the national stage. "Jack and Jill" emerge as "Vlad and Don." "Little Pence Veep," "Itsy Bitsy Betsy," "Little Jeff Sessions," and many others follow suit, as the contemporary players are substituted for their classic nursery rhyme counterparts. “Sing a song of Mike Pence,/A pocket full of lies,/Contact with the Russians?/ Denies, denies, denies! / When it was discovered/That Flynn had lied to Pence,/Cries to investigate/Began to all make sense!” Throughout the book, dynamic illustrations amplify and enrich the poignancy of the poems and help to capture, with a wit of their own, the essence of the unruly tenure of 45’s presidency. These satirical representations of the outrageous behaviors of the Trump administration – while critical and often stinging – are less an attack and more an exposé. The use of poetry as parody to chronicle the mockery and incomprehensible violations of our democracy will serve as a touchstone for future generations; Trumpty Dumpty will endure as a portrait of how fragile our system of government can be, and how easy it is to take our freedoms for granted…. …From the INTRODUCTION: In my mind, November 8, 2016, has joined the ranks of November 22, 1963, and September 11, 2001, as a singular tragedy of epic proportions. I refer to this as “The Dark American Triad.” The election of Donald Trump as President of the United States was a heart-stopping, life-altering moment, which has become a recurring nightmare. It was an event that has threatened to tear the fabric of this country apart – thread by slender thread - until there is nothing left but a democracy in shreds: The UNTIED States of America. I felt betrayed… Thank God for the monologues of the late-night comedians who took on all of the increasingly incomprehensible political events as they unfolded, dressed them up in the irony that fit best, and presented news to viewers that was (and continues to be) historically accurate and hilarious at the same time. Satire at its best.

  • The Sheeriyth Imperative: Empowering the Remnant to Overcome the Gates of Hell

    Michael Lake

    Paperback (Defender, Dec. 6, 2016)
    In The Shinar Directive, we journeyed down the Luciferian rabbit hole to discover the matrix of darkness that has engulfed our planet. It would seem that esoteric societies have nearly fulfilled Nimrods dark directive. However, the Almighty will not allow the enemy to bring his A team for the final showdown without responding with His own. God is raising up people around the world that are shaking off their techno-sorcery induced, spiritual slumber and are answering Heavens call. There is an end-time empowerment coming for Gods Remnant His Sheeriyth. Hell may have its directive, but Heaven has its imperative! The Sheeriyth Imperative is a tactical manual for Gods Remnant in the Last Days. In this vital book, you will discover a deeper look into the fallen immortals that now labor for the Kingdom of Darkness, how the unification of Superstring Theory and the Bible can play an essential role in our understanding of end-time spiritual warfare, the reality of multi-dimensional seed, what really happened when Lucifer fell and the force he created to fuel his kingdom. Learn that the Watcher invasion of Genesis 6 involved much more than just a breeding program, how Nimrod aligned himself with immortals in the Second Heaven to empower his hellish plans and how Mystery Babylon is doing the same in our day! The reader will gain a better understanding of what Lucifer was really seeking to gain in the fall of humanity, how the Nazi/Vril agenda is still being carried out by the clueless masses around the world today, how our modernized theologies have rendered the modern Christian weaponless and naked on the end-time spiritual battlefield, and how Heaven is empowering the Remnant to destroy every stronghold and to become a force that can raze hell and bring the King

  • The Physics of Sports

    Michael Lisa

    Paperback (McGraw-Hill Education, Feb. 20, 2015)
    There is a large and growing number of excellent books on physics and sports. While these books are well written, educational, and often entertaining, they are simply not textbooks. Physics concepts such as: force, velocity, and torque, come into the discussion. Interesting facts are given, and occasionally a formula is applied. However, the focus is typically on conveying interesting physics related facts about a particular sport, rather than developing a general appreciation and facility for scientific reasoning. The Physics of Sports is intended as a textbook for a 1 semester or a 1-2 quarter undergraduate course, for students - not necessarily intending to major in Physical Science, Engineering, or a related field. With this course, it is hoped that a student's natural interest in athletics and the direct relevance to concrete material will bridge the gap for students, turned off by the seemingly abstract stuff covered in many undergraduate physics courses. The discussion being completely centered around real life examples, allows students to understand sports by talking about Physics.McGraw-Hill's Connect, is also available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.
