Does this image disturb you? It should. Today marks an anniversary, but not one anyone would want to celebrate:
5-YEAR ANNIVERSARY of BESLAN, RUSSIA SCHOOL MASSACRE by Muslim terrorists

Taken from Bare Naked Islam's Blog: For three days, more than 1200 children and adults were held hostage in a sweltering gymnasium, denied food and water, and forced to keep their hands over their heads. The harrowing siege ended on September 3 with a series of explosions and a hail of gunfire that killed some 350 people – half of them children.

The grim details are rarely exposed but the fact I want to make is this was orchestrated by MUSLIM TERRORISTS. While not all Muslims are terrorist, why does it seem that this religion is filled with them? They have no regard for human life, even their own, and spare no one, not even innocent children. In this instance, the children were raped, mutilated and tortured before dying. Death was probably an intended blessing by their captors.

THESE are the very people that our president holds his hand out to in friendship and apologizes for OUR misdeeds. Terror camps exist in our own country, and I've blogged about their locations and the rapid growth. Nothing is being done, and according to our new leader, we should all reach out and atone to the Muslim sector for our belief that they pose a threat. I can't find it in me to do it? Can you?

If you're proud to be a Muslim, then good for you, but how can you possibly feel any sense of pride in all the horrible things that have been done in the name of you religion?

Watch and wonder with me.
with me.

President Obama’s Address to Students Across America September 8, 2009!

Is it not enough that he's on television every week or conducting a town hall meeting in the US... or making an appearance on foreign networks while he apologizes to other countries on our behalf? Now he wants to brainwash our children. This smacks of the gestapo. I've never witnessed a more narcissistic personality in my life.

I cannot tell you how opposed I am to this plan. Religion is not allowed in the schools... we've removed God from the Pledge, so why is it okay to discuss politics? Should we be exposing our children to the viewpoints of a president who has fallen from the favor of the voting public?

A great many youngsters have witnessed their parents painting signs for tea parties and town hall meetings--signs that protest the very things that are happening under this president's leadership. What gives him the right to pump their heads with his propaganda without the permission of the parents? I'm sure most kids have overheard disgruntled people speaking about the outright atrocities being planned and instrumented by the current administration. I say, politics have no place in the classroom. If you agree, speak up! Here is the suggested "itinerary" for this grand appearance by the Head Czar!

PreK-6 Menu of Classroom Activities:
President Obama’s Address to Students Across America
Produced by Teaching Ambassador Fellows, U.S. Department of Education September 8, 2009


Before the Speech:


Teachers can build background knowledge about the President of the United States and his speech by reading books about presidents and Barack Obama and motivate students by asking the following questions: Who is the President of the United States? What do you think it takes to be President? To whom do you think the President is going to be speaking? Why do you think he wants to speak to you? What do you think he will say to you?


Teachers can ask students to imagine being the President delivering a speech to all of the students in the United States. What would you tell students? What can students do to help in our schools? Teachers can chart ideas about what they would say.


Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor? Why is what they say important?

During the Speech:

As the President speaks, teachers can ask students to write down key ideas or phrases that are important or personally meaningful. Students could use a note-taking graphic organizer such as a Cluster Web, or students could record their thoughts on sticky notes. Younger children can draw pictures and write as appropriate. As students listen to the speech, they could think about the following: What is the President trying to tell me? What is the President asking me to do? What new ideas and actions is the President challenging me to think about?

Students can record important parts of the speech where the President is asking them to do something. Students might think about: What specific job is he asking me to do? Is he asking anything of anyone else? Teachers? Principals? Parents? The American people?

Students can record any questions they have while he is speaking and then discuss them after the speech. Younger children may need to dictate their questions.

After the Speech:


Teachers could ask students to share the ideas they recorded, exchange sticky notes or stick notes on a butcher paper poster in the classroom to discuss main ideas from the speech, i.e. citizenship, personal responsibility, civic duty.

Students could discuss their responses to the following questions: What do you think the President wants us to do? Does the speech make you want to do anything? Are we able to do what President Obama is asking of us? What would you like to tell the President?

Teachers could encourage students to participate in the Department of Education’s “I Am What I Learn” video contest.

On September 8 the Department will invite K-12 students to submit
video no longer than 2 min, explaining why education is important and how their education will help them achieve their dreams. Teachers are welcome to incorporate the same or a similar video project into an assignment. More details will be released via www.ed.gov.

Extension of the Speech: Teachers can extend learning by having students:

Create posters of their goals. Posters could be formatted in quadrants or puzzle pieces or trails marked with the labels: personal, academic, community, country. Each area could be labeled with three steps for achieving goals in those areas. It might make sense to focus on personal and academic so community and country goals come more readily.

Write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president. These would be collected and redistributed at an appropriate later date by the teacher to make students accountable to their goals.

Write goals on colored index cards or precut designs to post around the classroom.

Interview and share about their goals with one another to create a supportive community.

Participate in School wide incentive programs or contests for students who achieve their goals.

Write about their goals in a variety of genres, i.e. poems, songs, personal essays.

Create artistic projects based on the themes of their goals.

Graph student progress toward goals.

My final comment: With regard to this question: Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor? Why is what they say important?

I wonder if it shouldn't be altered to say, Why is it important for the president and congress to listen to the people who elected them--solicit their opinions before acting in haste. Shouldn't those who take an oath to act in the best interest of their constituents honor it?

Just because someone becomes an elected official, that doesn't mean they are above reproach. Count the number of tax cheats in Washington, and ask what happened as a consequence of their bad behavior. I don't think I want my grandchildren learning from politicians who have assumed careers rather than "serving a term,"...people who pad their pockets with special interest money that influences their votes. I'm one of those people that believe our only salvation lies in cleaning out the dead wood and starting over fresh. Since Obama is losing ground in the popularity polls, he's turning to our children. Is there nothing he won't do?

For reasons unknown to Meagan Murphy, her father won’t allow her to date anyone in uniform. Through her volunteer efforts at the USO, she meets Ryan Cullen and throws caution to the wind.

Ryan only has a short time before his unit is shipped overseas, and they have to make the most of the time they have left together. Ryan deploys, but not before he puts a ring on her finger and asks her to wait.

Will he return and win her hand from her father, or are all those newscasts on the nightly radio about casualties in Ryan’s unit warning her to prepare herself for the worst?




Tender Return is a short but enticing read that addresses a subject that a lot of military families are going through today. Meaghan has found herself in love with Ryan only to have to let him go as he is to be deployed at any moment. She can't know when or to where. On top of missing Ryan, she struggles to deal with the fact that she has to hide her romance from her parents. Her father has strictly forbidden his daughters to date any USO servicemen for reasons unbeknownst to her. Fear is her constant companion these days and she can't help but worry for Ryan. With all the reports of casualties over the radio, Meaghan holds out hope that they will be reunited once again. These are all such real emotions that spouses of those deployed have to deal with everyday. I thought it was refreshing that Ms. Simpson gave us both points of view in this story by showing the reader just how much fear Ryan has for what must be done. The one thing helping him to make it through is knowing that Meaghan is waiting for him.

I found Tender Return to be a sweet yet spicy read that tugged at my heartstrings and allowed me to see through the eyes of a woman waiting for her lover to come home. Ms. Simpson has written a touching love story with a deep and powerful setting that I believe a lot of readers will be able to relate to. I felt like I wanted to know the characters in more depth and I would love to see this book made into a full length novel. Tender Return has a message that needs to be told and I am pleased to say that today is the day this message is told. If you are looking for a quick read with filled with meaning and emotion as well as a sensual romance, then look no further, Tender Return is a book you don't want to miss.

A new and favorite review site, You Gotta Read, has been kind enough to post the following reviews on their site for my latest EP releases.  to say I'm honored, is an understatement.

Reviewer: Tiffany Kleinhans


Roselle can't quite live up to her flowery name and prefers to be called Ellie. Her plans of one day running her father's ranch are threatened by a handsome foreman, the dastardly family on the adjoining land; And more surprisingly, her heart.

Foreman, Tyler Bishop, can't make heads or tails out of Ellie Fountain. One minute she's a childish tomboy and the next, copper curls and curves. One thing he's determined to do, and that's keep her safe. He's not sure if he's doing it because she's the boss's daughter or because her feistiness attracts him in ways he doesn't want to admit.


Romance and suspense emerge in Sparta Rose.



This is a decent historical romance set in Tennessee around the time of the Civil War. Complete with a bit of a love-hate relationship between the two main characters, some detestable characters, evil plotting, and emotional turmoil, I actually thought it was a pretty good book.

The primary main character, Roselle Fountain, is a woman living very much in what is considered to be a man’s world, and trying to play an active part in it. While it may have been considered acceptable when she was a young girl to lend a hand with the men on her father’s ranch, now that she’s becoming an adult, it’s considered to be completely inappropriate. With a father pressuring her to act like the young lady she is, and the ranch foreman treating her like a child, Roselle just wants to be allowed to be herself.

Meanwhile, Tyler Bishop, the ranch foreman, harbors a secret love for his boss’s daughter. But, does he dare to express his feelings for the daughter of the man he respects more than any other? And, when Roselle’s stubbornness lands her in more trouble than she can handle, can Tyler save her, before it’s too late?
If you enjoy historical romance set in America during the Civil War era, then this book is a good reading choice. It rates a solid ‘You Want to Read’.

Hope Harrison is a woman who lost her husband three years earlier and is a Medical transcriber at home. While transcribing charts, she realizes that she needs to schedule herself for a routine medical appointment. She hasn't had urge to look at another man since her husbands death. That is, until she meets one of the sexiest men she has ever met, Dr. Jerrod Carlson.

As Jerrod and Hope get to know each other better, they find themselves unable to stay away from each other, they are together every possible moment until something unexpected happens to hamper their relationship. Will this love survive?




From the start, the characters and subject matter had me hooked. I was captivated by Hope. She was mature and unsure of herself. Very beautiful, funny and finding herself acting like a teenager, I found her personality endearing and comical. Dr. Jerrod Carlson *sigh* .... do they come any hotter than him? He was professional and just to put it out there, he was just downright sexy. He knew what he wanted when he met Hope and still, there was a part of him that was afraid of being rejected. I found the relationship between Hope and Jerrod to be emotional, warm, stressful at times and definitely sizzling! Now, on to the plot. Hope Springs Eternal is a fast paced read that has a gripping plot which touched an emotional chord with me. I won't go further than to tell you that you MUST read this book. I will not give away any of the story but will tell you that you will be surprised at what happens throughout the story. The twists and turns really got me and I just couldn't put the book down.

I have read several books by Ms. Simpson and I must say, each and every book I've read has piqued my interest. Hope Springs Eternal has become one of my favorites for all the situations it addresses in just a short amount of time. Ms. Simpson's well developed writing style makes her books very relatable and easy to fall in love with. I highly recommend you pick up Hope Springs Eternal. Sit back with a cup of coffee or tea and lose yourself in this captivating read.

Can a pioneer wife lost in modern day Colorado find her way back to her own era , or will the sassy female attorney who's taken her place in time seduce the woman's handsome cowboy husband?
Review:
This story really opened my eyes as to how far we have come through technology since 1872! Two women, from two totally different eras somehow change bodies, and each finds themselves in the other woman's body. Mariah (the woman from 1872) is a very proper lady. She doesn't cuss, wear anything she deems as inappropriate and when it comes to anything sexual she feels it is improper to make the first move. Taylor on the other hand (the woman from 2002) is quite the opposite. She's headstrong, independent, has a strong sexual appetite and cusses like a sailor. When they wake up and find that neither one is who they think they are and their husbands certainly aren't who they think THEY are, the fun begins. How on earth do you get used to two very different time periods? And their husbands (who are both gorgeous by the way), have to deal with how frustrating it is to look at the woman you married who looks the same, smells the same but whose actions are completely opposite of how they usually behaved. My favorite character was Taylor. She is thrown back in time with none of the conveniences of modern day and she has a temper. Some of the things she said and did were hilarious.
Sisters in Time was an exciting, funny, eye opening read that just made me feel good. Ms. Simpson did an outstanding job with the vivid imagery and the engaging plot line was like nothing I have read before. I found Sisters in time to be a lighthearted, lively and fun read with great characters who are likable and engaging with sharp dialogue. Ms. Simpson has produced yet another winner with her new book Sisters in Time and I look forward to reading more of her work. Her books keep getting better and better and she will always remain an automatic add to my to be read list. I strongly recommend you pick up Sisters in Time, you don't want to miss this one.

When Sarah Collins set her sights on California for a new beginning, she never figured a war party would attack her wagon train. After he friend, Molly, succumbs to her injuries, Sarah is the sole survivor, left alone to find her way back to civilization. Stampeding buffalo, the black prairie nights and eerie noises, just when she believes she’s faced the worst, a rattlesnake bite threatens to accomplish what the Indians failed. Is it her time to die, or does Sarah have a purpose yet to accomplish?

The 1850 Santa Fe Trail was described vividly by Ms. Simpson. I could truly envision the vultures circling, the stench of rotting bodies and the shocking appearance of people who had been scalped. As I read through page after page of this captivating story, I found myself torn between what the brain and what the heart said. As the characters work their way through their lives, the choices they had to make were prudent but heartbreaking nonetheless. The icing on the cake was the ending, and it could not have been more poignant if she tried. I was left breathless upon reading the final paragraph. This is an amazing book by a truly gifted author.

I
can't believe how long I've waited for some good news. This has been an
incredible day. First an email invitation from Tara Banks to be on America's Top Model, and then another from Oprah
to appear as a special guest, representing all e-book authors and
filling the first slot on her favorite book list. You must imagine I'm
bouncing off the walls. Surely I'll be able to land an agent now.

Is there no end to my delerium? The phone rang just a few moments ago and I was notified I've won the Great American Sweepstakes.
In a short time, I'll be receiving my million dollar check. What will I
do first? I really won't need to spend any of it, since I'm entering The Amazing Race,
one of my favorite TV shows. I'll be sprinting around the world and
finally get to see something of interest, and on their dime. And, most
shocking of all, President Obama sent word that he would appreciate me
being the first person to receive and test one of the new
fuel-efficient cars from GM. All for free. He also offered me a
specially-created post on his cabinet because he's sure I'll be the
first to pass the background check with ease. No skeletons in my
closet.

How funny that my invite from Tara followed an apologetic letter from The Biggest Loser, telling me that I'm far to svelte to be considered as a contestant on their show. And Nutri System turned me down to replace Marie Osmond as their spokesperson because I'm far too thin already.

Just
when I thought this day couldn't get any better, guess who called? OMG,
While I was listening to Mel Gibson persuade me to have dinner with
him, Tom Selleck beeped through and insisted he'll leave his wife if
only I'll divorce my husband. Oh the insanity. Who to choose. My
husband has been a faithful and devoted spouse...but

I'd like to
continue to share more of my wonderful news, but I must go and flip a
coin...maybe two. Holy horse flies... Sam Elliott just phoned and threw
his hat into the dating ring. I have to go read my horoscope then check
to see how the stars and sun are aligned. Something is really weird
today.

Why am I reminded of this? Every morning when I wake up with good ideas
about writing, publishing, editing, etc, they are overshadowed by
things that seem so much more important. Honestly, since I started
watching Fox news and reading some of the affiliated blogs, I can't
stop...and I'm scared. I fear President Obama has his hand in so many
pots, he really isn't concentrating on our safety. How can he be, when
the woman he appointed as the head of Homeland Security won't even
allow the word 'terrorist' in her vocabulary. Janet Napolitano
previously oversaw the glorious state of Arizona, where the greatest
infiltration of aliens still takes place. She didn't want a wall
guarding her borders.

Michelle Malkin had this on her blog: http://www.michellemalkin.com
While
a few big firms, such as Wells Fargo and JP Morgan Chase, have
curtailed their campaign giving, others are quietly doling out cash to
select members of Congress, particularly those who serve on committees
that oversee TARP. In recent filings with the Federal Election
Commission, the political action committee for Bank of America (which
got $15 billion in bailout money) sent out $24,500 in the first two
months of 2009, including $1,500 to House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer
and another $15,000 to members of the House and Senate banking panels.
Citigroup ($25 billion) dished out $29,620, including $2,500 to House
GOP Whip Eric Cantor, who also got $10,000 from UBS which, while not a
TARP recipient, got $5 billion in bailout funds as an AIG
“counterparty.” “This certainly appears to be a case of TARP funds
being recycled into campaign contributions,” says Brett Kappell, a D.C.
lawyer who tracks donations. (A spokesman for Cantor did not respond to
requests for comment. A spokeswoman for Hoyer said it’s his “policy to
accept legal contributions.”


Is everyone corrupt in
Washington? I'm still stewing over the billions given to Palestinians.
Has the President forgotten we have homeless and needy people wandering
the streets of this country, too? It pains me to admit that I used to
be one of the 'uninformed' whose curiosity was piqued by the high
numbers of homeless men until I discovered why. Under our current laws,
they are not eligible for anything other than food stamps. Shelters are
full, they have no access to homes, so I can imagine that bridges and
overpasses might look pretty appealing when the temperatures dip into
the teens. People complain about them pissing in the streets...where
would you suggest they pee? I guess the old adage, "Walk a mile in my
shoes,' takes on new meaning, but who among us would want to step into
their worn and frayed boots? Yes...most appear to be Vets. Somehow that
makes it even sadder in my book.

Sadly, it seems President Obama
is destined to destroy our alliance with the leaders of other
countries. He threw Poland under the bus when he withdrew our support
for their safety, he sent a letter to the Russian President that was
construed in a cowardly light, and now after many years, they are
rearming their nuclear weapons. When the English Prime Minister
visited...after Obama returned the bust of Churchill which had been
prominently displayed in the White house, our President treated him
poorly then insulted him further with a set of DVDs that only formatted
to play in North America. Now he's followed a video to Iran, also
marking him as a coward and asking for peaceful surrender with a letter
to the President of France in which Obama states he looks forward to
future joint endeavors. He sent the letter to Jacques Chirac who hasn't been France's President for TWO YEARS! It should have gone to the current President, Nicolas Sarkozi.

A
recent criticism stated Obama used the word "crisis" twenty-five times
in a speech, then complained that people are too negative about the
economy. If none of this makes you worry, then you must have nerves of
steel. If we keep our heads buried in the sand, pretty soon the
remainder of our bodies will be buried there, too.


Friday, March 20, 2009 

Posted from my blog on blogspot.com.  There was some pretty heated debating about the time-frame, but that seems of little importance when the focus should be on the imminent danger.  We're training terrorists right here in our country and our head of homeland security  refuses to even recognize the word.  Has political correctness superseded our common sense?  Don't know about you, but I'd like to hang around a while longer.
















I try to avoid doom and gloom, but this was something that needs to be shared.I planned to share my new book cover, but somehow this seemed a wee bit more important. We all live with our head in the sand when it comes to things like this, and it's time to straighten up and look around. Strangely, I considered Tennessee would always be a safe place. Apparently not, since according to Bare Naked Islam's Weblog where I got this picture, there is a training ground right in my backyard. Why is that? People training on our own soil to destroy us? Something is very wrong here.

 While I see by my 'poll' in the sidebar that humor is the leading draw to keep people coming back, I'm sorry, there is nothing remotely funny about this:

"AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ BY EVERY AMERICAN!
PLEASE PASS THIS ON."

Juval Aviv was the Israeli Agent upon whom the movie "Munich" was based. He was Golda Meir's bodyguard; she appointed him to track down and bring to justice the Palestinian terrorists who took the Israeli athletes hostage and killed them during the Munich Olympic Games. In a lecture in New York City a few weeks ago, he shared information that EVERY American needs to know -- but that our government has not yet shared with us.

He predicted the London subway bombing on the Bill O'Reilly show on Fox News stating publicly that it would happen within a week. At the time, O'Reilly laughed and mocked him saying that in a week he wanted him back on the show. But, unfortunately, within a week
the terrorist attack had occurred. Juval Aviv gave intelligence (via
what he had gathered in Israel and the Middle East ) to the Bush
Administration about 9/11 a month before it occurred. His report
specifically said they would use planes as bombs and target high
profile buildings and monuments. Congress has since hired him as a
security consultant.

Now for his future predictions. He predicts the next terrorist attack on the U.S. will occur within the next few months. Forget hijacking airplanes, because he says terrorists will NEVER try and hijack a plane again as they know the people onboard will never go down quietly again. Aviv believes our airport security is a joke -- that we have been reactionary rather than proactive in developing strategies that are truly effective.

For example: 1) Our airport technology is outdated. We look for metal, and the new explosives are made of plastic. 2) He talked about how some idiot tried to light his shoe on fire. Because of that, now everyone has to take off their shoes. A group of idiots tried to bring aboard liquid explosives. Now we can't bring liquids on board. He says he's waiting for some suicidal maniac to pour liquid explosive on his underwear; at which point, security will have us all traveling naked! Every strategy we have is 'reactionary.' 3) We only focus on security when people are heading to the gates. Aviv says that if a terrorist attack targets airports in the future, they will target busy times on the front end of the airport when/where people are checking in. It would be easy for someone to take two suitcases of explosives, walk up to a busy check-in line, ask a person next to them to watch their bags for a minute while they run to the restroom or get a drink, and then detonate the bags BEFORE security even gets involved. In Israel , security checks bags BEFORE people can even ENTER the airport.

Aviv says the next terrorist attack here in America is imminent and will involve suicide bombers and non-suicide bombers in places where large groups of people congregate. (i. e., Disneyland, Las Vegas casinos, big cities (NewYork, San Francisco, Chicago, etc.) and that it will also include shopping malls, subways in rush hour, train stations, etc., as well as rural America this time (Wyoming, Montana, etc.). The attack will be characterized by simultaneous detonations around the country (terrorists like big impact), involving at least 5-8 cities, including rural areas. Aviv says terrorists won't need to use suicide bombers in many of the larger cities, because at places like the MGM Grand in Las Vegas , they can simply valet park a car loaded with explosives and walk away.

Aviv says all of the above is well known in intelligence circles, but that our U. S. government does not want to 'alarm American citizens' with the facts. The world is quickly going to become 'a different place', and issues like 'global warming' and political correctness will become totally irrelevant.

On an encouraging note, he says that Americans don't have to be concerned about being nuked. Aviv says the terrorists who want to destroy America will not use sophisticated weapons. They like to use suicide as a front-line approach. It's cheap, it's easy, it's effective; and they have an infinite abundance of young militants more than willing to 'meet their destiny'. He also says the next level of terrorists, over which America should be most concerned, will not be coming from abroad. But will be, instead, 'homegrown' -- having attended and been educated in our own schools and universities right here in the U. S. He says to look for 'students' who frequently travel back and forth to the Middle East . These young terrorists will be most dangerous because they will know our language and will fully understand the habits of Americans;
but that we Americans won't know/understand a thing about them.

Aviv says that, as a people, Americans are unaware and uneducated about the terroristic threats we will, inevitably, face. America still has only have a handful of Arabic and Farsi speaking people in our intelligence networks, and Aviv says it is critical that we change that fact SOON.

If there is any "silver lining" to this prediction, it is the absence of
massive nuclear or biological attacks. Bombings of the type Aviv
predicts may have the effect of both awakening and enraging segments of the American population who have been blithely dismissing terrorism as an outdated concern. The jihadists' swaggering preference for houri-fixated young shaheeds may have unexpected results in this country, where increasing numbers of citizens are already "up in arms" over the Obama administrations policies. The cry that went up after
9/11 -- "Who are they? Why do they hate us?" -- can now be answered comprehensively and convincingly by those of us who have made the effort to learn.

The text from this message came from Infidel Bloggers Alliance. If you really want to be shocked, you should visit the sites from where this information came, but warning...especially on Bare Naked Islam, there are videos posted that show horrendous things that happen around the world. If you aren't squeamish, prepare to be appalled.
