Dad you’re so beautiful : Céline Audebeau

This sentence continues to resonate in my head… As Simone de Beauvoir says so well “we are not born as a woman, we become”. I waited 53 years to become the one I am today.

Have you heard that taking too many antibiotics kills off that bacteria? Fast facts: once the gut bacteria is destroyed, you could end up with a serious intestinal infection! Some sources say a whopping 24 million pounds of antibiotics are prescribed each year! The extinction of our “inner garden” within our intestines is imminent! Bacterial resistance due to microbes destroyed is a vital concern, i.e. development of life-threatening “superbugs,” such as clostridium difficile (also known as C-Diff.) We should all be concerned, as we are creating superbugs for which there will be no cure. Antibiotics

The Note Man : Andrew Pine

“Did you really think you’d get away with it?” When Peter Jeffries slapped those words across the window of a luxurious Mercedes-Benz, he’d had no idea what the consequences would be. Recently fired, the frustrated family man had written the note for the blond woman behind the wheel – the one who’d cut him off in traffic without using her turn signals. He slapped the note and hid, waiting to see her reaction. Instead, it was her husband who saw it – brutal Irish gangster Jackie ‘The Ox’ O’Neal. The Ox isn’t the kind of man to take threats lightly – even if they weren’t actually intended for him. Soon, Peter’s impulsive act of road-rage has resulted in mayhem, murder,

In March 1896, Widow Evaline “Evvy” Amstel has been left with a tremendous debt―before he was murdered, her husband had promised to build and deliver a revolutionary airship, The Empress of the Clouds, to Erasmus Marchand, an embittered Southern millionaire who resents the fact that the damned Yankees won the Civil War.
