“Found in a Garbage Can”


Book Description

The rapid end to the godlessness that we have been living in since the beginning of time is here at last, at the precipice of the end of times. The movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still, starring Keanu Reeves, is a wonderful, though fi ctional, testimony to how the world, or humans, respond to detrimental situations especially our own. Only when there is tragedy or even doom do we change and try to save our own lives. There are serious defi ciencies in genuine love, respect and reverence for the Almighty God, our Father in Heaven, also in living as new creations of born again Christians for Jesus Christ. It has tainted the Churches and the written Word of God to the point that ministers, elders and clergy pretend not to notice and even believe they are powerless to do anything about it anymore. They have all let the sin fester for so long that the power of God cannot live in the churches we build and the presents of the Holy Spirit is not felt in them either. You will experience with me the memories of my religious and spiritual experiences coupled with my everyday challenges to show how this world changed from being lovers of God to being God haters and what we must do to change and follow Him. "Found in a Garbage Can" is a testimony of a young girl who through trial after trial grows spiritually and found that God was with her throughout her life. The book starts speaking of time and the ages. It speaks on miracles and childhood notions that will cause you to remember. That people will begin reading their bibles and with living the finest principles studies because they are life changing. I recommend everyone that is able to read Found in a Garbage Can. This book will cause you to be moved by events have been though and the product of my change and obedience.

Plastic Ocean


Book Description

The researcher who discovered the Great Pacific Garbage Patch—and remains one of today's key advocates for plastic pollution awareness—inspires a fundamental rethinking of the modern Plastic Age. In 1997, environmentalist Charles Moore discovered the world's largest collection of floating trash—the Great Pacific Garbage Patch ("GPGP")—while sailing from Hawaii to California. Moore was shocked by the level of pollution that he saw. And in the last 20 years, it's only gotten worse—a 2018 study has found that the vast dump of plastic waste swirling in the Pacific Ocean is now bigger than France, Germany, and Spain combined—far larger than previously feared. In Plastic Ocean, Moore recounts his ominous findings and unveils the secret life of plastics. From milk jugs and abandoned fishing gear to polymer molecules small enough to penetrate human skin and be unknowingly inhaled, plastic is now suspected of contributing to a host of ailments, including infertility, autism, thyroid dysfunction, and certain cancers. An urgent call to action, Plastic Ocean's sobering revalations have been embraced by activists, concerned parents, and anyone alarmed by the deadly impact and implications of this man-made environmental catastrophe.

The Seventh Victim


Book Description

In the past there have been a series of attacks on white and Asian women in a local neighborhood, and the police was under pressure to solve the cases. Tyrone Briggs was charged with aggravated assault in the crimes. Tyrone Briggs was a 19 year old high school basketball star who, at the time of the crimes, was living in the Yesler Terrace. Since the attacks had all happened in the same area, during the same early morning hours, they were considered the work of a serial attacker. Because of the close proximity of the attacks to the hospital, they became known jointly as the "Harborview Rape Case." Harborview Medical Center was next to a public housing project "The Yesler Terrace" run by the city. Tyrone Briggs had lived in Yesler Terrace with his parents, brothers, and sister for about a dozen years and was living there at the time of the attacks. Hundreds of young black men lived there, and the police were picking up those between the ages of fourteen and thirty for questioning. A police stakeout was conducted in the neighborhood to try to catch the assailant during this time. The general description given by the witnesses (most of whom were the victims of the assaults) at the time of the attacks describe a man who did not fit the descriptions of Tyrone Briggs, and the police officers had no reason to detain him. When the trial began the prosecutor seemed adamant that Tyrone Briggs was the attacker of those women. The frustrating injustice of the whole case made the Briggs family blood boil. Joanne Spencer couldn't imagine how it felt to be Tyrone Briggs, star high school basketball player now locked up in prison for something he didn't do.
