Streets Snippets started in 2016 as a project for my son's 8th grade English class in New York City. The original concept was to give the kids a snippet of conversation heard on the streets of the city, and have each student write an original story based upon that snippet. After my son graduated from middle school, the platform wasn't used for several years. It seemed logical to reopen the platform as an extension of the online curriculum development being created as an educational alternative during the COVID pandemic in 2020. When I first approached John Bapst High School in Bangor, Maine about using the Street Snippets platform for their 2020-2021 creative writing class, little did I know the diversity of ideas and formats that would come from this talented group of high schooler's. The first indication was when a request came through to submit a poem instead of a story. Sure, I thought, that would be fun. That was soon followed by requests for publishing songs, cartoon strips and images. The formats went far beyond the basic short story. What you will find in this book are the stories and projects created by the authors at John Bapst. We have kept the stories as written, laying them out as closely as possible to the format created by the authors. The stories in the book are arranged by snippet, with each story beginning with the snippet for that month. As you read through each chapter, you will find a diverse set of ideas, each original, each personal, that takes the snippet as its opening line and then has the story run its course. Each of the stories can be found in its original form on the Street Snippets site. If you like a particular story, you can leave a comment for the author when you visit the site. As the publisher of Street Snippets, I couldn't be prouder of the authors from John Bapst. I look forward to working with next year's students as we continue to encourage and promote the work of the next generation of authors.

The no-holds-barred memoir from kickboxer Mark "Fightshark" Miller, the only professional fighter in history to return to the ring after open-heart surgeryIn 2007, Mark Miller was a rising star in professional kickboxing, until a routine physical uncovered a serious condition that required open-heart surgery.

Miller recounts stories ranging from his childhood spent in the Steelers locker room to the surprising life lessons he learned from other fighters to his triumphant return to fighting in a Moscow kickboxing ring. He talks frankly about family and fatherhood?of the hard lessons about masculinity and violence learned from his abusive father. He also offers an inspiring, exciting, and frank account of the fights?both in and out of the ring?that have shaped him.A deeply personal account of guts, blood, and glory, Pain Don't Hurt pays tribute to the never-say-die spirit embodied in a man who refuses to back down, no matter the odds.

Life is good for Jim. He is satisfied as the pastor of a large church, gladly married to a wonderful woman, and has two adorable little girls. His cup overflows. Then he gradually realizes he's become attracted to a member of his congregation. Through a series of inappropriate meetings with her, he moves closer and closer to falling to temptation and devastating repercussions. Ignored by Jim, though, is someone trying to save him. The Pastor's Confession honestly illuminates the awful appeal of an extramarital affair. As the story of temptation unfolds, other faith issues are raised-the role of politics in church life, the Christian and money, the effects of sexually explicit entertainment, to name a few. And, of course, the grace of God is ever-present in the confession. This is the second book in the series, The Pastor and the Seven Deadly Sins.

Over the centuries they have lived with man, taught man and observed all of mankind's cultures. Now they must ask themselves, is humanity ready to take its place in the Collective or is it time for judgment?

Diamond Carter is a Normal, a human with no genetic enhancements. He is about to turn eighteen and he must choose a mate. In the Norm Preserve, choosing a mate is one of the most basic laws. It is a law that cannot be violated. While viewing his potential mates on the Video Machine, Diamond glimpses a human beyond his comprehension. He sees Terra and her strikingly beautiful white wings. Terra is not from the Preserve. Terra is an outsider, a genetically enhanced human with the ability to fly. Rather than choosing a mate, Diamond sets out on an impossible path, something that has not been attempted since the establishment of the Norm Preserves. He seeks to find the woman with the white wings. This path becomes something much more than merely finding a mate. Tapping into a vast computer network he learns that someone or something is trying to bring them together and in the process discovers that the impossible path he chose to follow has only just begun.

Have you ever wondered how online shopping works and how to actually become a successful entrepreneur? All the information available online these days can be quite overwhelming, especially for a beginner. You don't need to worry anymore, you have come to the right place. This book will not only teach you how to sell products online, but also to develop successful strategies and make real money by learning more about affiliate marketing.The first thing to know is the different ways you can deliver your product to the buyer.The most obvious method is shipping the product themselves, but it's not necessarily the best solution for all entrepreneurs.If we're talking about a digital product, no shipping is required, but unless you're in the digital publishing or in the software business, this second solution will probably not apply to you.Another way is for the seller to purchase the product but to have a third-party fulfillment service that ships their goods. As space and time limitations make it difficult for small teams/individuals to handle a large amount of shipping, services like Fulfillment by Amazon that handle the shipping process of goods are seeing a big increase in the demand.The seller could also list a product they have not bought yet, and a supplier ships the product to the consumer when a sale is made. This last option is know as drop-shipping, and the initial investment of the seller is much less than traditional sales, although it can result in additional costs for products and fees, meaning lower profit margins per sale. However, since the initial investment is mostly time, this means more risks can be taken on a large range of products and scaling the business can begin almost immediately. For this reason drop-shipping is quickly becoming one of the premier methods for those getting started. It is the least stressful and the most open ended way and for those of us who have a limited budget to start with, and so prefer to put in the time rather than the cost, it is perhaps the best possible method of becoming a successful ecommerce entrepreneur.The second step to becoming a successful entrepreneur is learning about affiliate marketing. This business model originated shortly after the first few businesses started offering products and services online. The affiliate marketing commission system was likely inspired by the commission payment system of offline salespeople, which receive a commission or percentage of the payment amount. Affiliate marketing platforms are the most preferred option for both the product merchants and affiliate marketers. This is because they are well equipped and positioned to match buyers of affiliate marketing service (product merchants) and suppliers of affiliate marketing service (affiliate marketers). Thus, they are marketplaces for both product merchants and affiliate marketers to meet, interact and transact. Not all these platforms are the same. Therefore, to secure your success, you first need to establish criteria that will enable you to find the best platform for you. This book will provide you with all you need to become a good affiliate marketer and entrepreneur. You will learn: - What drop-shopping is- What affiliate marketing is and how to become an effective affiliate marketer- How to create a successful strategy with drop-shipping and affiliate marketing- How to find the best products and platforms to drop-ship- How to find the best affiliate networks and promote your business- Steps to follow to scale your earning up to $ 11,000/month...and much more!Ready to get started?

Have you decided to start your online business with the online sale of products? The goal is to search for a product, create a brand and sell multiple products in different countries where Amazon or other platforms do business. Well, in short, when you create your brand, you separate yourself from the package being literally the only seller who offers your product. In this way, you can keep all the profits 100% of the time! manage a large amount of shipping and handling in addition to their other business needs, services such as handling by Amazon manage the process of shipping the goods as they are sold. Free time often allows you to scale your business and work to find new products and work on marketing rather than work to get a package for a customer. The seller lists a product he has not purchased and a supplier sends the product to the consumer at the time of sale.

"Uncommon Greatness reveals the fundamentals required for any leader who wants to go from ordinary to extraordinary, and lead at levels beyond their wildest imaginations"--

Five women rose in the dark of a Sunday morning on Nisan 18, AD 30. They had agreed to meet together in the most densely populated city in the Roman Empire to perform a necessary but cheerless and gruesome task. Two of them were relatives of the deceased man; each of the other three had been healed by his touch. Their mission was critical. In the rush to entomb their Rabbi by nightfall three and a half days earlier, a crucial step had been omitted-that of applying oils to his burial shroud.The women had prepared the oils as soon as possible and carried them in small alabastra, but they had been excessively delayed. Not one but two intervening Sabbaths had postponed their graveside visit until that particular morning. They knew the stench inside the cave-like tomb would be unbearable, but their love compelled them to honor the man they grieved so deeply.They didn't know that Roman soldiers had been posted to guard the doubly sealed tomb.They didn't know that the stone over the tomb entrance weighed about three-quarters of a ton.But then the sun broke.This is their story-and his.The most important day in history is the day Jesus Christ rose from the dead. This is the complete, integrated account of the events from Jesus' last words to his ascension, combining all the New Testament records with additional historical and cultural information. The resurrection of Jesus was the most pivotal day in history.DAWN is actually two books in one. Part One (the first half of the book) is dramatized history. It reads as a multi-layered story, with dialogue and historical details to highlight the emotions and movements of the characters involved. It transports you, the reader, back into Palestine some 2,000 years ago to experience the dynamics of those emotionally charged days. The second half of the book provides the background research for the story. This half of the book consists of Part Two, which is a complete integration of the four gospel accounts with extensive footnotes, and Part Three, which addresses questions about the chronology, writers, characters, and relationships. Particular focus is given to the women, especially Mary Magdalene. The book is 392 pages (softcover).From the Author:While researching and writing this book, I was continually surprised and delighted by the discovery of hidden details which I had never noticed before, despite having already read the resurrection accounts more than 100 times. For example, in this book you will discover: 1. The names of the four relatives of Jesus at the cross, and their relationships 2. What was happening at the temple at the time Jesus died 3. Where the disciples were between the crucifixion and resurrection 4. Why Peter and John were separated from the other disciples and from each other 5. Why the Jewish leaders wanted Roman guards at the tomb (It was not for the reason they gave) 6. How it's known that Jesus was resurrected (at least) several hours before dawn. 7. How the guards' own words prove they were lying about the body being stolen 8. From whom Matthew learned about the soldiers' experience at the tomb 9. Why Peter made a second trip to the tomb (yes, he made a second trip) 10. What was the connection between Mary of Bethany and Mary Magdalene 11. Who first believed that Jesus was alive (it's not Mary Magdalene) 12. Where Mother Mary was between the crucifixion and the day of Pentecost...and more!

Named one of Forbes' Top Ten Business Books American Marketing Association Berry Book Award WinnerInternational Book Award Winner American Business Awards Silver MedalistBusiness Book Awards Finalist for International Book of the YearA book for a different breed of business leader, one who looks beyond the moment to create a life of significance.Most of us are familiar with the traditional way of looking at legacy--something preserved in the past. Traditional legacy is all around us, evidenced by the steady churn of autobiographies, bequests, commemorations, and dedications we are forever leaving in our collective cultural wake. This is not the legacy you will find in this book. Legacy in the Making celebrates an active, dynamic form of "modern legacy," seen through the eyes of a select group of extraordinary men and women who are pursuing their enduring ambitions in the age of now. More than caretakers of the past, these modern legacy builders are also the authors of a vital today and tomorrow. Rather than leaving their legacies behind them, they are looking ahead to harness their long-term ambitions and inspire others to help carry them forward. These are not static, traditional legacies. These are legacies in the making.
