What poets have said:With simple, unflinching honesty, Pete weaves history into poetry. He relives the horror of Vietnam, the wonder of the moonshot, and so many memories of his beloved Los Angeles growing and changing. He longs for all we have lost, yet somehow he finds hope in this puzzling world.-Franki Drayus Pete is one of the most powerful poets I have ever heard. His work spans a myriad of subjects and is presented in many different and engaging styles. His imagery and content will provide amazement and inspiration to readers of all ages.-Jack Shafer Whether recounting the fate of his friend, "The Magic Rat", in Vietnam, or expressing his bewilderment or gratitude at the turns his life has taken, Pete's voice is an honest one, aimed from his heart to ours through a jungle of nightmares, " paying interest on a debt that still accrues."-Donn Deedon Pete’s lyrics of remembrance evoke the nostalgia which lingers in all of us . But more, his verses not only recall the past, they examine how its events, both public and private, have created the world we now live in, and therefore reverberate so strongly in the present. —G. Murray Thomas

Guinness shows that becoming free and truthful people is the deepest secret of integrity and the highest form of taking responsibility for ourselves and our lives. Now in paperback, this engaging book will interest Os Guinness fans, thoughtful readers, and those concerned with moral, political, and cultural issues.

Between 1932 and 1972, approximately six hundred African American men in Alabama served as unwitting guinea pigs in what is now considered one of the worst examples of arrogance, racism, and duplicity in American medical research--the Tuskegee syphilis study. Told they were being treated for "bad blood," the nearly four hundred men with late-stage syphilis and two hundred disease-free men who served as controls were kept away from appropriate treatment and plied instead with placebos, nursing visits, and the promise of decent burials. Despite the publication of more than a dozen reports in respected medical and public health journals, the study continued for forty years, until extensive media coverage finally brought the experiment to wider public knowledge and forced its end. This edited volume gathers articles, contemporary newspaper accounts, selections from reports and letters, reconsiderations of the study by many of its principal actors, and works of fiction, drama, and poetry to tell the Tuskegee story as never before. Together, these pieces illuminate the ethical issues at play from a remarkable breadth of perspectives and offer an unparalleled look at how the study has been understood over time.

His wife of sixteen years wanted out. Before he could slip into depression, doubt, and self-loathing, Dan’s lifelong friend Tony made an irresistible proposition: go back to the place where, forty years earlier, their college road trip had come to a crashing halt, T-boned by a woman in the decidedly oddball little town of Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Dan and Tony return to the scene of the crash in an effort to make sense of that fateful moment. He’s certain that if he can locate the woman in whose arms he almost died, he will find the self he lost and make peace with his life choices since. Dan moves into a single-wide trailer four blocks from the crash. Over the next eight months, inexplicable encounters make him fall in love with the New Mexico desert and the wiggy place that embraces him.

The first encounter with a soulmate isn`t something you can compare to any other encounter. Many people will instantly realize that this is a special kind of partner. Often, a feeling arises as if you were looking into your own eyes or as if you were standing in front of you in person, which is a result of great love connecting the two soulmates. Usually, the male soulmate withdraws from his female soulmate after a short time, which is very difficult for her to understand because the only thing she`d like is to be together with him. The more he withdraws or acts in the opposite direction of what he has been saying to her, the more she believes that she`s imagining everything or even that she`s ready for a mental hospital. Thereby, she may get trapped in a waiting position or feel great suffering, which seems very much the same as infernal anguish. These and further questions will be explained in this first part: - Why the male soulmate always withdraws. - Why at the time of their encounter, the male soulmate is mostly bound to someone (in a relationship). - Why the male soulmate usually tries to start a relationship with other women. - Why you`ll wear a stigma of a crazy person if you tell someone about this connection. - Why she has to suffer so much because of his withdrawal and what it all means. - Which individual phases you have to go through with your soulmate and what happens in each of them. - What kinds of behavior you should possibly avoid with your soulmate, especially if you are experiencing neediness.
