‘Moms don’t sleep. They just worry with their eyes closed.’ Are you losing sleep while your mind jumps to every worst-case scenario? Are you parenting from a place of fear? If you’re a helicopter mom who can’t seem to relax, Alison can relate and she wants to help you break the habit of worry and live with peace instead – the way God intended. Most of what people worry about will never actually happen. If you’re a chronic worrier, knowing this doesn’t put the fire out, nothing does until you’re willing to fan the flame of a whole new fire. In Don’t Let What If Ruin What Is, Alison shares her deeply personal battle with worry and what she has coined her ‘FIRE process’; Faith, Inner Work, Real Food and Exercise, to give you the tools needed to break the habit. Read on and have hope that you too can set worry down and live your life instead.

A collection of four poems which explore childhood memories and grown up anxieties. The collection begins with ''Hopefully'' which takes a wry look at the way we treat each other and how difficult it is to see ourselves as others might. ''Identity Theft'' takes a light hearted look at an identity issue many of us face at work. ''Two'' explores the way children and adults relate to their pets and how our childhood memories stay with us into adulthood and help to shape the way we experience the world. ''Almost Everything'' examines loss and grief.

Though Bartolomeo Scala has long intrigued historians, he is a figure whose importance has only recently been appreciated. In Alison Brown''s biography Scala emerges as a man of more ability and character than anyone has imagined him to be. We begin to understand why he was employed as chancellor for the almost unrivaled period of thirty-two years. Ms. Brown''s study is not only the first extensive treatment of Scala''s life but also a significant contribution to our knowledge of Italian Renaissance history and of the contrast between theory and practice in Medicean government.

Reading The Bing Blogs will encourage you to spend the time to first recognize your dog''s particular problems, and then solve them one by one as best as you can. The time and effort may result in the best dog you''ve ever known.People might expect dog trainers to have the perfect dog. But by the time Bing was 5 months old I realized I had a challenge on my hands. At first The Bing Blogs were designed for my dog training website: writing about Bing''s antics, and our successes and failures, was my way of providing training advice to people who have dogs with issues. With all his issues, Bing was able to perform well in Agility, Rally, Obedience and Scent Work. He won many dozens of titles in spite of the difficulties of working in these event environments. Bing loved to perform for me. I don''t look back at his life and say, "Boy what a waste of time, I''m glad that''s over." I say, "What a wonderful dog and great friend he was."
