Armed with newly discovered information about his father's past debased life, Lewis seeks to explore and understand his own struggles with mental illness that likely plagued both his parents and may have ultimately destroyed him. Son of a Killer has it all- love, loss and liberation of every kind, including the final confrontation of a killer who may have set his son free in unimaginable ways. While the complete mystery of his life remains unsolved, the father's story is imparted through "Son of a Killer."

Six Sigma is a fact-based, data-driven methodology of waste reduction that was originally developed by Motorola in the mid 1980s to address manufacturing problems. In the late 1990s, service organizations began adopting the Six Sigma philosophy to improve their transactions with customers. But one area overlooked for improvement by most of these companies was their support functions-human resources, marketing, finance, accounting, auditing, purchasing, billing, credit approval, IT, security, and maintenance. These office areas are the ones targeted by this book because they offer tremendous untapped opportunites for cost savings. Readers will quickly learn that the Six Sigma improvement strategy is not just a collection of statistical techniques, but a step-by-step set of operating instructions detailing how to systematically apply these tools in the correct sequence, and at the proper time, to improve the performance of your office operations and administrative functions. Written for those who work in offices, the statistical techniques covered in this book are very easy to learn and successfully apply. Because these methods are presented at an introductory level, no prior experience with statistics is necessary. Additional benefits... Many practical ideas are presented for collecting data (with minimum sample sizes), generating ideas about potential causes of business problems, verifying major causes, and successfully implementing cost-effective solutions. Over 40 easy-to-apply statistical techniques are fully explained and illustrated with many examples. A matrix of techniques versus steps indicates when a particular tool should be applied. Numerous flowcharts detail the correct application of a chosen technique. Over 600 graphs and illustrations demonstrate the proper data-analysis methods. A multitude of real-life examples and case studies from a wide variety of businesses illustrate the proper application of the Six Sigma strategy. No special software programs are needed, only pencil, paper, and common sense. Whether you work for a manufacturing company, a service organization, or a non-profit, the material in this book will help you enhance the performance of all your support operations. This text should be on the bookshelf of every office manager.

The battle for medical freedom of choice is not new ... it's been raging for more than 100 years. Why then does conventional medicine still continue to question the convictions of natural practitioners by pushing the "benefits" of synthetic drugs over natural remedies? For example, why is it patients with terminal illnesses must find treatment in other countries such as Mexico? Is it because the natural treatment they seek is illegal in the United States and they are forced to find it elsewhere?Doctor on Trial is the true story of Dr. Harold Solem, chiropractor and naturopath, who endured decades-long opposition so future generations might freely choose their physician (alternative or conventional) and their preferred method of treatment (natural remedies or synthetic drugs).But storm clouds were forming on the horizon and Dr. Harold was ensnared by the tentacles of the medical machine. Alternative medicine had begun to flourish, so conventional medicine launched its campaign of "containment and elimination of chiropractic."At the age of 87, Dr. Harold was incarcerated for his unconventional convictions, then acquitted at the fifth trial. He had won the first such case in the State of Illinois! After hearing the judge's decision, the prosecuting attorney whispered to Harold's defense attorney, "This case never should have been brought to court!" Why then was it? Dr. Harold Solem had been denied his right to medical freedom of choice!Doctor on Trial reveals the hidden history behind the 170-year conflict between the nation's two medical systems.Early in his practice, Dr. Harold was drafted to serve in World War I and while on board ship to Europe, treated desperately ill servicemen suffering from the effects of the Spanish influenza epidemic of 1918. Following his discharge from the Army medical corps and returning home, he treated patients throughout the Great Depression, many of whom had been given up by conventional medicine.Woven into this narrative, written by Dr. Harold's daughter Merilyn, are her family's battles against the ravages of three potentially life-threatening illnesses. Merilyn and her husband Lawrence were in their early 40s. Lawrence was diagnosed with cancer and diabetes, and Merilyn with crippling rheumatoid arthritis. They had chosen to ignore her father's wise teachings and adamant warnings about their unhealthy lifestyle during the first 20 years of marriage. They were now faced with three frightening wake-up calls. Their prognoses? For Lawrence: "possibly five years." Merilyn's medical doctor warned her, "There is no cure for rheumatoid arthritis. Without medication, you will eventually be confined to a wheelchair." The outcome? By returning to Dr. Harold's teachings, Lawrence lived another 30 years without a recurrence of cancer or diabetes. It is forty-five years later and Merilyn has never needed a wheelchair. At the height of her symptoms, she earned her RN from a four-year medical hospital where she witnessed the dangers of drugs, radiation and elective surgeries.

This story is based on true events that occurred in recent years. The dates, places, and names were changed to protect the survivors and safeguard the security of all the inhabitants of our planet, especially the citizens of the United States of America. The findings and incredible discoveries that will be revealed must be safeguarded, as they could be very dangerous if they fall into the wrong hands. 
The characters in this story look like you. They embody citizens who, over time, only wanted to protect us from the unknown and from the imminent danger that it meant for humanity; they are our anonymous heroes. 
Ultimately, the human race is not prepared to interact with beings from other planets and distant galaxies. The infinite knowledge behind The Dyson Sphere is best kept out of the public eye, and it is that very few know these beings have influenced our lives for thousands of years without us imagining it. 
The Dyson Sphere will open your eyes to a new world. You will discover events that governments have hidden for more than 150 years. Prepare to confront yourself and question everything you think you know and actually do know. Do it with a very open mind, because when you reach the end, you will understand that this story is just beginning.
