Joe Collins used to be Joey Connolly, alias Joey Kotex, an infamous enforcer for the Petucci crime family. He left that world behind to run a blues club in Chicago, but Carl Petucci finds Joe and forces him to do one last job. Joe's assignment takes him to Wesserunsett, a small Maine town that has seen better days. With a friend's life at stake, Joe must kill a porn director and recover a video starring Petucci's niece. Easier said than done, as the target's girlfriend, Wanda, is a Wesserunsett cop. Then there's Hag, a wannabe hitman, and his buddy Earl. Hag's looking to make a killing in the killing business. As Joey, Wanda, and Hag each pursue their own agenda, they move ever closer to a bloody showdown. Praise for BITTER WATER BLUES: "A glorious boilermaker of noir and East Coast gothic. The action is as taut as a sprung snare and Bagley tightens the screws with every page." --Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase "There ain't much quaint and cuddly about Patrick Shawn Bagley's Maine, where the only folks more dangerous than the thugs and gangsters From Away are the locals. Bagley sandblasts the chipped veneer of small-town charm to expose the rot beneath. Bitter Water Blues is a vivid, unflinching portrait of desperate people struggling at the margins of society to survive." --Chris F. Holm, author of The Collector trilogy and The Killing Kind "Bagley's debut novel is pitch perfect crime fiction, as dark and raw as it gets with a rich tapestry of intersecting characters who bring a beleaguered blue collar New England community to life with the style and powerful punch of a seasoned veteran...a story of redemption and revenge, second chances gone awry, double-crosses and finding loyalty where it counts, even if a little too late...a refreshingly masterful new voice in noir, and highly recommended." --Ed Kurtz, author of Nothing You Can Do

Stand To

Stand To

Like a soldier awake, alert, ready for action as he responds to the STAND TO call knowing every moment is critical and his engagement is a necessity, so every man must know that he too is being counted on to courageously follow God's specifically designed purpose and plan for his life. Men are hardwired for action, and we learn best by doing. STAND TO invites men to accept personal challenges and live intentional, creed-driven lives in the presence of God (Coram-Deo), under His authority, and for His glory Too often, silence, apathy, hesitation, or withdrawal from worthy engagements cause a man's true identity and strength to be suppressed. STAND TO flips this narrative STAND TO shares from God's Word our striking resemblance to our Warrior King who has also experienced intense suffering from missional living. This King offers backbone-stiffening courage in the face of fear, strength without compromise, and the model for sacrificial living despite the cost. Knowing our King goes before us in the battles and challenges enables us to confront and overcome them as well. Each chapter provides men specific 'courage challenges' to DO. This is critical Soldiers in battle are trained and equipped to courageously engage in the good conflict and move towards the action. Such present and engaged men are needed in their relationships and their significant calling from God. In the words of Thomas Jefferson, "Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act Action will delineate and define you " STAND TO IS GOING TO LIGHT YOUR HAIR ON FIRE This incredibly interesting and readable book is destined to reach a whole new generation of men who want their lives to count and make a difference. It's that good -PATRICK MORLEY, PhD, Founder, Man in the Mirror For years, Shawn has been training boys to be men, and this book proves he's the kind of guide we need right now. -JOHN STONESTREET, President of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview and host of Breakpoint Men who would "stand up for Christ" and "stand firm in Christ" would benefit from being saturated in Dr. Brower's volume STAND TO - a weighty yet engaging exposition of Christ-exhalting Biblical masculinity. Enjoy and profit -HARRY L. REEDER III, Sr. Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church It's time men of God need to stand up not down. Shawn Brower points to God's standard of masculinity and invites men to embrace who God designed us to be. -RICK BURGESS, Co Host of the Rick and Bubba Show and Director of TheManChurch.com This book helps men, young and old, to courageously pursue, accept, and act on God's masculine design, to image Jesus...A must read for every man. -MITCH TEMPLE, Executive Director / CoFounder - The Fatherhood Commission Stand To was a hallmark of hope and heaven-sent pushing and probing. I am drawing upon its resources multiple times in a week and sometimes in a day. -JOSEPH V. NOVENSON, Pastor of Sr. Adults, Lookout Mountain Presbyterian Church

Building Successful GovernmentBuilding A Winning Culture In Government is a revolutionary blueprint for building organizational success in the private sector-and now in governmentGovernment Culture. Our government organizations face political fallout, media scrutiny, reduced funding, and the many challenges involved in motivating large, multi-layered and highly regulated organizations. It’s no surprise that many government organizations report that their employees are less engaged than ever and that leaders feel helpless to change the situation. In many cases, employees and government leaders are caught in a vicious cycle. Performance declines, scrutiny increases, and employee paralysis ensues.Breaking this cycle and building successful government. Change the mindset from “leaders are a select few in the organization” to “everyone can and should be a leader.” This simple shift is key to building successful government organizations in the 21st century. If every member of the organization is a leader, it enables government organizations to leverage the power of five highly effective and proven FranklinCovey practices that have made private sector organizations successful and are now bringing about positive change in public sector organizations.The five highly effective practices. Transform your government organization into one that is more responsive to the public interest and provide a more rewarding, less stressful, and overall better life for your employees:Practice 1: Lead with purpose and find your organization's mission, mantra, or manifesto.Practice 2: Make the 7 Habits of Highly Successful People your organization's operating system.Practice 3: Unleash and engage people to do infinitely more than you imagined they could.Practice 4: Inspire trust and be the most trusted organization possible.Practice 5: Create intense loyalty with all stakeholders.

The power of the Web lies in the fact that anyone and everyone can access it, and this should also extend to users with disabilities. Accessibility is about making websites accessible to those with aural, visual, or physical disabilities, or rather, constructing websites that don't exclude these people from accessing the content or services provided. This isn't difficult to accomplish and doesn't require anything more than your normal tool set—HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Flash, or whatever else. All you need to do is use these tools in the right way, and bear in mind the guidelines that exist to help you keep your websites accessible and the laws that enforce web accessibility around the world. This book gives you all you need to know about web accessibility, whether you are a web designer or developer who wants your sites to be accessible, or a business manager who wants to learn the impact of web accessibility laws on your websites.

Logic and Its Limits

Logic and Its Limits

`This book grew out of the conviction, not in itself strange or startling, that the ordinary person can and should think straight rather than crooked.' Patrick Shaw has written a commonsense introduction to the use of logic in everyday thought and argument. It explains some of the rules of good argument and some of the ways in which arguments can fail, drawing illustrations from a variety of contemporary and international sources, such as the press, radio, and television. Symbols and technicalities are kept to a minimum in this thorough and provocative investigation of the rational approach to thought - and its limitations. Logic and Its Limits emphasizes the use of logic in helping to settle and clarify disputes. It will help the reader to avoid bad arguments, to detect them in others, and so to think and argue more effectively. A wide range of thought-provoking examples and exercises concerned with contemporary social and political issues make this a readable and stimulating guide for the student and general reader alike.
