The Days After The Music Died by A.G. Kimbrough
About The Days After The Music Died by A.G. Kimbrough
The Days After The Music Died is a Dystopian novel about a post EMP world. A family struggles to escape the madness that is burning the cities and reach a refuge they established on a Mississippi River island.
October second appeared to have the makings of a nice day even though Richard Erickson wouldn’t be able to enjoy much of it. He would soon be starting a twelve hour shift in the Emergency Room at San Francisco County Hospital. The young man would complete his medical internship in eleven months.
Richard’s day began at seven, when he showered, dressed, and stopped by Mickey D’s for breakfast. By the time he reached the Bay Bridge, the sun was breaking through the fog, and the Oldies Rock on his special playlist had just finished Buddy Holly’s “Peggy Sue”.
Halfway through his second cup of coffee, with the stereo now playing Richi Valens “La Bamba”, Richard felt that life was good. As he approached the Treasure Island exit, the Tahoe died, along with the stereo. Taking a quick look at the gas gauge, he saw the whole panel was dead. Coasting to the curb, he noticed that his car was not the only one stopped. Nothing was moving.“Oh Shit. its really hit the fan!” he exclaimed.
A quick check of his iPhone revealed that it too was dead.
Richard opened the door and stepped out. A man in a Tesla jumped out as smoke burst from under the hood.
“What the hell is going on?” He demanded.
Richard answered. “I think we got hit by an EMP attack.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means the end of the world as we know it. I suggest you get home any way you can. It will be bad everywhere, with no power, water, or food.”
The man looked unconvinced. He then looked over to his burning car. Without a word, he started toward the off ramp.

Resilience: It’s Not About Bouncing Back: How Leaders and Organizations Can Build Resilience Before Disruption Hits by Jennifer Eggers
About Resilience: It’s Not About Bouncing Back: How Leaders and Organizations Can Build Resilience Before Disruption Hits by Jennifer Eggers
The power of resilience within organizations and can transform an average company into a powerhouse. Yet, even in times of rapid disruptive change, there is no manual for building resilient organizations. This book is that manual.
Resilience, left to individuals, will only ever be built by people in the moments that require them to dig deep and find it. The real power in building resilience before we need it, lies in what we can accomplish when our organizations become resilient. This book presents a simple framework for leaders and organizations to prepare for sustainable results in the face of rapid, disruption.
The power for organizations lies in the act of methodically and collaboratively building a collective resilience framework to increase their ability to thrive in the face of complex challenges for which the answer, and often even the definition of the problem itself, may not be obvious. These challenges frequently require both the organization and the leaders within them to make trade-offs in values and loyalties. Often, an individual’s resilience will ‘get them through’ such changes, but a more effective approach is to build organizational resilience before we need it.
Building resilience involves intentional preparation to increase our ability to emerge from challenges better equipped to deal with them than we were in the past–a transformation into a stronger self. For organizations in an environment of rapid, disruptive change, there is often no ‘back’ to bounce to after disruption, because by the time they right themselves things have changed.
This book presents a simple framework that can be applied to both individuals and organizations. It’s proven and it works.

To Die Is Gain And Other Suicidal Thoughts: A Memoir Of Drawing Closer to Christ In Life, Crisis, And Recovery
About To Die Is Gain And Other Suicidal Thoughts: A Memoir Of Drawing Closer to Christ In Life, Crisis, And Recovery
“I laid the truth bomb out this morning, and said out loud, that if I couldn’t find a way to afford treatment then others were going to have to find a way to afford my funeral.”
A “what if” world is a sad and dangerous place to live. What if my dad hadn’t died? What if my mom didn’t get cancer? What if I had stayed? What if I had walked out? What if the razor had been sharp enough?
I cannot change all the loss I have experienced, but I can process my grief and accept a new vision of my future. I am a child of God. I am meant to shine. If I can ask for help and I can get well, then maybe it will give others permission to do so also.
I know now you must care for your spirit and mind as you care for your body. If you broke your leg, you wouldn’t say, “Oh it’s all in your leg; shake it off.” So, don’t say, “It’s all in your head; shake it off.”
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9).

In addition, as I was practicing day trading, investing, and mining cryptocurrencies at the same time, I also became aware of both common pitfalls and good strategies to use. In this write up, I have compiled the top 20 ways to generate income with cryptocurrencies using 10 active methods and 10 passive methods. It is my pleasure to present both my research and real-world experience to you!

90 Days to Live by Rodney & Paige Stamps
About 90 Days to Live by Rodney & Paige Stamps
When an out-of-the-blue cancer diagnosis quickly turned into a 90-days-to-live death sentence from his doctor, Rodney Stamps and his wife Paige defied the medical establishment, and drew their line in the sand.
With both a growing family and business–and given that their doctors promised only to briefly extend his life with chemotherapy–the Stamps gave a resounding “No” to chemo and radiation.
90 Days to Live recounts the Stamps’ incredible and inspirational journey to find an alternative answer to cancer. In the end…
They’d beaten cancer while building a million-dollar business.
Following his ALL-natural protocol religiously, Rodney’s cancer went into full remission. On top of that triumph, he took his fire-and-safety business–which had just begun to take off when he’d received his cancer diagnosis–into a million-dollar enterprise.
An ALL-Natural Treatment Focus
Unlike other books by cancer survivors claiming to cure their own cancer “naturally,” but in actuality, relying heavily on modern medicine (surgery/drugs), 90 Days to Live outlines a 100% alternative medical treatment (i.e., using absolutely no allopathic–a.k.a. conventional–medicine)–a treatment that’s delivered incredible results to Rodney and countless others.
Alternately heart-wrenching and heartwarming–and delivered in an engaging dual-author format–90 Days to Live will speak to anyone struggling with an “incurable” disease, building a business under trying circumstances, or anyone who just loves a good old-fashioned, “beating-the-odds” story.
