Set in East Tennessee, this anthology contains works from members of the Etowah Writers' Guild. Nonfiction, fiction, sci-fi, humor, and horror provide something for everyone. Cannibalistic grannies may have you second guessing those missing neighbors while the deep European roots of the Appalachian folk hide an ancient danger on isolated hiking trails. Hauntings, which range from humorous to downright dangerous, cast an eye towards local graveyards and unsolved murders as mischievous ghosts and ghastly bank robbers wreak havoc. Bewitched nursing homes, summer camps with nefarious secrets, and a mysterious hotel from the past will set a chill down your spine. Black cats and Halloween outings provide humor, while local encounters with devil dogs and the legendary Wampus Cat make for apprehensive walks in the dark. Strange lights in the sky, aliens, and an invasive force seeking a place of its own rounds out this wonderful collection.

A guide to the top search engines, subject directories, and portals especially designed for kids.

The top 20 recommended search engines and subject directories for kids (including Ask Jeeves for Kids, Cyber Sleuth - Kids, Homework Planet, KidsClick!, Lycos Zone, Searchopolis, and Yahooligans) are covered in detail.

CLICK HERE to download the chapter on "Growing Backyard Fogs" from the book From Tree to Table
From Tree to Table celebrates the satisfaction that comes from planting and enjoying fruit trees in the maritime Pacific region. It's a collaboration between the authors and amateur gardeners, horticultural experts, and dedicated chefs from up and down the West Coast. The result is a charming and accessible guide for local plant and food lovers that dispels the myth that gardeners in sun-challenged climes can never find happiness with fruit trees! With advice that's suitable for drizzly Seattle backyards and frosty Portland burbs as well as often-sunny Marin or foggy Richmond, the authors offer both anecdotal and expert advice for raising everything from apples to plums, lemons to figs, and much more in some of the most difficult conditions -- heavy soils, overcast and rainy weather, cool summers, and relatively mild winters. In addition to describing growing, planting, and pruning tips in each fruit-specific chapter, From Tree to Table features recipes from the West Coast's best and brightest chefs, including San Francisco’s Tom McNaughton, and two Seattle icons, Tom Douglas and Ethan Stowell. Readers will discover that it takes little technical know-how, minimal upkeep, and very little space to participate actively in the sustainability solution. After all, what could be more local and enduring than fresh apricots or Fuyu persimmons from a backyard tree that can feed generations to come?

The author of this volume begins by explaining what ADD is and how ADD brains differ from the normal. She then discusses the application of coaching techniques and perspectives to labelling, medication, choice of therapies and teaching methods. Later chapters deal with issues of structure, black-and-white thinking, emotional trips, creativity, impulsiveness and sensitivity. #Written from an insider's viewpoint, this practical guide should provide practical help to people who live with ADD themselves and to those who live with them.
