    By 2867, we'd not only cracked our genetic code, but could stack the nucleotides like gods playing with toy blocks - yet we were still human, with the same noble desires to do what's right at war with the basest needs of our Fallen state. There was a storm brewing in Gravstead, but all Cass wanted was to go home, soak in a metallic bath and ride out the hormonal storm that affected every Jovian female, heavy and guppy alike. But when her old partner brings her a time-sensitive case involving a half-breed infant, she can't say no. Someone has to find the father and make him pay for the genetic resequencing to save the baby's life. The only problem - the father died months before the child was conceived.

    Bettye could have been a concert pianist. By the time she was 15, she was playing Rachmaninoff. She had a full college scholarship. Instead, she got married the day after high school graduation as valedictorian in the tiny Texas town of Olden. This book is about why it was important at the time to give up her dream and become a full-time wife and mother, not so uncommon for 1953. Once entered, the marriage caused her to wonder if she had chosen a man like her father. There were other women, carelessness with money, and disregard for others' feelings and comfort. Her mother and father had married twice, and he never changed.At twelve, she spent a year in the Philippines in 1946, living at Camp O'Donnell. This was where the American prisoners ended their long, cruel march from the conquests of Bataan and Corregidor, the Manilla defenses attacked the same day as Pearl Harbor. They were still there, and Bettye could not understand why as they told their horror stories about "the Forgotten Few." Japanese prisoners were there too, and Bettye came face to face with the racism of her family.Her childhood religion in the Church of Christ also came into question. She had trouble explaining why good people and friends who were Catholic or Baptist could not go to Heaven. She had trouble explaining why it was wrong to sing Christmas carols in church, but they were fine in homes and shops. While in the Philippines where there was no church, or school for that matter, Bettye saw a relaxing of the rules like the prohibition against dancing. More and more hypocrisies appeared before her growing, expanding mind and she seemed constantly in conflict, especially with her well-known evangelical uncle.This is very much a coming-of-age story. She was born in 1934 when rural nineteenth-century America was alive in daily routines. The country was soon going to go through the heartbreak and disruption of war and separation. It was followed by the hope of a bright tomorrow with a new family and home. But, alas, the reality of surviving health issues, financial and job insecurity, and family conflict hit Bettye hard. So, what is a bright, creative, caring person to do?

    INTRODUCTIONFor generations females have suffered, not only with the Victorian attitude towards their sexuality, but towards the attitudes that women are a lesser human being than the males of the human species. Testosterone plays a part in this, but more so does the attitude adopted by many males within the world populations. Many males, and indeed, some females who develop the attitude, 'they are more dominant' than their sister counterparts, may also relate to the role male dominants plays in society. Biological females are born with great strengths in their mind and body. The distribution of strength is different to that of biological males, but none-the-less, it is a strength that has kept the human population moving forward for the last three hundred thousand years or since the time we evolved as homo-sapiens and came out of Africa. Like the humans who live today, these ancient people would have liked to know, they can eat, rest, and enjoy their daily lives. Over this time these people evolved behaviours that helped them respond to the changes that happen within unstable environments. We cannot dispute, the now collected scientific research, that proves the evolution of the species.The ancient people, though we are now 'better educated,' we may think, also had working brains! Through our development, and over time, males and females have developed larger brains, however, the hormones that worked in the bodies and brains of those earlier people, are inherited, and still working in our bodies and brains today. The earlier people had sex, made love, loved their families, and developed their attitudes. So much of the working body are ancient without modification. Some of the human brain has modified, but the hormones, enzymes and other bodily parts that allow us to survive and live our daily lives relate to the ancient and past generations! When we take a deep breath and look back to the past, to our previous grandparents and past generations in our family line, we can see the ancient connections working inside our body and brain, and this is why, the actions, words said, and the attitudes, that belong in the past, need to be modernised. Negative attitudes towards women, in the 21st Century are out of date. If these words are hitting home, that is a good sign you are sensitive to the meaning written in the above! Christine

    Chad Gritt, the lanky, blue eyed, former Civil War naval officer once thought of himself as a hero, that is until a rescue mission turned into a bloodbath. Now he is content to captain a ship carrying heroes on their mission. That is until the enemy sinks his ship and throws the soft-spoken recluse into leading survivors across a thousand miles of Mexican Civil War that makes the American Civil War look tame. It's 1865 and the War Between the States is almost over. In Mexico, a far more brutal civil war is reaching a turning point. President Lincoln's advisors and most of Congress favor using Civil War military power to intervene in the Mexican War as a prelude to annexing the country. Lincoln himself has intervened in the Mexican conflict where his move is distrusted by those he seeks to help and hated by the other side. He is also plotting with Russia to purchase Alaska in hopes of heading off American troops invading their southern neighbor. As part of his efforts to head off a foreign war that the American public doesn't support, Lincoln and Secretary of State, William Seward send a clandestine exploration team to the Pacific. The explorers are shocked to find that one of Seward's own lieutenants is plotting against their mission, a mission made more critical when the U S Treasury entrusts millions in California gold to them. Gold that the collapsing Confederacy plans on stealing to support Southern Officers who have lost everything. Sinking Gritt's ship is critical to their effort. The explorers begin burying their own one at a time. No one they meet can be trusted in a country where everyone is a pawn to be played, killed, or sold. Will help come from the colorful captain of the only ship of the Free State of Jones, or from one of two beautiful Mexican women; one passionately involved in Mexico's conflict and the other fleeing it?

    Complex and fact based, STILL COMMON SENSE embraces the traditional truths of America with hard documentation, the kind of book that will appeal to Americans with conservative political views, as well as progressives interested in countering the conservative agenda. STILL COMMON SENSE digs deeply into how the United States got into a situation where many Americans feel obligated to ignore and even chastise the other side. Many of the conclusions reached might be different depending on the individual's beliefs and personal experiences, but STILL COMMON SENSE was written to challenge all of us to consider the imperfect but exceptional United States of America, where You Own You.
