The poems in this book present a mosaic of modern life that reaches back to the past to capture the pulse of the future. Tapping into topics such as social justice, economic disparity, spiritual philosophy, and most of all love, this book provides a compelling tribute to non conformity and a celebration of those who defy social norms. Often set against the backdrop of East Harlem, 'El Barrio', New York, the poetry strides through complex intricacies of life and society with vivid imagery and introspective musings. The pieces come alive with the rhythms of jazz and blues music, and immerse the reader in an artistic journey of creativity. To read these poems is to experience the culture. Engaging for ages young and old alike, Black Existentialism is a collection of writings that bridges landmark poetic influences such as Amiri Baraka, Sonia Sanchez, Gil Scott Heron, Allen Ginsberg, and many more, with the cultural vibrancy of the 21st century.

It's the moment when you say, "There's gotta be a better way." It's the moment when you ask, "How can I solve this problem?" Donny Deutsch's hit CNBC show The Big Idea has put the spotlight on that ordinary moment and the people who have the courage and stamina to make their dreams come true. Some people think a big idea is like a lightning bolt striking out of the blue that slams you in the head. But it's hardly ever like that. The big idea isn't an act of God. It's an act of daily life. Simply put, the idea that will make millions starts with an observation. A carpenter gets tired of almost losing a finger every time he slices a bagel. Bam! The Bagel Guillotine. A mother is frustrated that her pantry is full of stale food because the packages don't close. Bam! Quick Seals. Howard Schultz notices on a trip to Italy that there are coffee bars on almost every corner. Bam! Starbucks. None of them had a barrel of cash. None of them had a ton of experience. They had a big idea and the will to follow through. In The Big Idea, Deutsch draws not only on his own tremendous focus and expertise, but on that of dozens of the successful entrepreneurs whom he has interviewed, to help you create your own enterprise. From the "Gut Check Moment" to "Mom Power," The Big Idea takes aspiring entrepreneurs along every step of the way. The Big Idea is your road map to the American dream.

Being fully transparent is good for a relationship, right? Well, maybe not when it’s literal. Christmas Angel is a second-chance, holiday romance with a celestial twist. Probationary angel Jake Hennessy's been sent back to earth to mend fences with his ex. Or has he? Certainly Tony doesn’t seem to think that's the case. Tony DiCecco might have ninety-nine problems—and then some—between dealing with his meddlesome family AND running the family business (a Christmas tree farm in rural Texas) but he's pretty sure that playing catch-up with his ex-husband isn’t supposed to be one of them. And what would even be the point? It’s hard to imagine what kind of future the two of them could have when one of them is alive and the other...isn't?

Chris Carson was a rebellious teen who faced a choice: either join the army or spend time in jail. He chose the army and was sent to Viet Nam. Later his company was caught and faced a firing squad. They were all killed, of course, and only Chris woke up weeks later rolling off a bed in New York, having been shot in the forehead, in the back, and with three fingers missing. In the meantime, he had met Jesus, who sent him back with a mission. From then on, Chris was able to invent amazing technology while still being subject to all the trials and frustrations everyone faces. This story is based on a real man's life-at least part one of it. Then it goes on to speculate what might happen to Chris and to the world with his artificial intelligence creation-Perceptor. This is a Christian action-adventure story that includes intrigue and evil-along with a love story or two-as we look into the possible future in the last days.

In 1975, after his two Godfather epics, Francis Ford Coppola went to the Philippines to film Apocalypse Now. He scrapped much of the original script, a jingoistic narrative of U.S. Special Forces winning an unwinnable war. Harvey Keitel, originally cast in the lead role, was fired and replaced by Martin Sheen, who had a heart attack. An overweight Marlon Brando, paid a huge salary, did more philosophizing than acting. It rained almost every day and a hurricane wiped out the set. The Philippine government promised the use of helicopters but diverted them at the last minute to fight communist and Muslim separatists. Coppola filmed for four years with no ending in the script. The shoot threatened to be the biggest disaster in movie history. Providing a detailed snapshot of American cinema during the Vietnam War, this book tells the story of how Apocalypse Now became one of the great films of all time.
