Synopsis Life in the Wrong Lane by : Greg Dobbs
The book is called Life in the Wrong Lane because thats where journalists live: in the one lane heading toward a catastrophe. Everyone whos normal is in the other lane, any other lane, going the other way. Theyre getting out. Although Dobbss travels, first for ABC News and now for HDNet Television, have taken him to many troubled corners of the country and the world, Life in the Wrong Lane isnt a travel guide about exotic places or a contemporary history of the events he covered. Rather, its about all the funny, bizarre, scary, stupid, dangerous, distasteful, unwise, and unbelievable things that journalists experience just getting to the point of reporting a story, experiences that possibly are even more interesting than the stories being covered, but which never become part of the stories they finally report to their audiences.

Synopsis Wrong Lanes Have Right Turns by : Michael Phillips
The unforgettable true story of one man’s escape from the school-to-prison pipeline, how he reinvented himself as a pastor and education reform advocate, and what his journey can teach us about turning the collateral damage in the lives of our youth into hope. “A heart-wrenching and triumphant story that will change lives.”—Bishop T. D. Jakes Michael Phillips would never become anything. At least, that’s what he was told. It seemed like everyone was waiting for him to just fall through the cracks. After losing his father, suffering a life-altering car accident, and losing his college scholarship, Michael turned to selling drugs to make ends meet. But when his house was raided, he was arrested and thrown into a living nightmare. When it looked like he would be sentenced to spend years behind bars, the judge gave him a choice—go to a special college program for adjudicated youth or face the possibility of a thirty-year prison sentence. It wasn’t hard to pick. From that choice, a mission was born—to help change the system that shuffles so many young Black men like Michael straight from school to prison. Today, Michael is the pastor of a thriving church, a local leader in Baltimore, and a member of the Maryland State Board of Education. He discovered that education was the path to becoming who he was created to be. Armed with research, statistics, and his powerful story, Michael tackles the embedded privilege of the education system and introduces ideas for change that could level the playing field and reduce negative impacts on vulnerable youth. He explores ways in which the readers can help advocate and provide resources for students, and points us to the one thing anyone can start doing, no matter who we are or what our role is: speak into young kids’ lives. Tell them of their inherent worth and purpose. In this inspiring, thought-provoking, and energizing call to action, Michael’s practical steps provide a way forward to anyone wanting to help create space for collateral hope in the lives of for young people around them.

Synopsis Strength For Life's Struggles by : Chrisshone Swayne
Has there ever been a time when you ever said the following words: Oh Lord give me strength? Was there ever a time when it seemed as if your strength was "failing" or "leaving" you? The weighted "blocks of life" are continually falling down on you, and you feel no relief at all. Your "tank of tolerance" is also at an all time low, and on top of that your "day-to-day" items in the "stuff bag" called "life" is just about full. Well, I have great news for you! Where your "strength" falls short, God's strength stands up! For the bible declares in II Corinthians 12:9, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." In fact, Jesus has a 100% guarantee on any affliction, struggle or trial you may be experiencing. This 100% guarantee is by way of the "Afflictions Benefits Package." The Lord defines it in these terms in Psalm 34:19, "Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all." In other words, it's a "fixed fight" and a for sure win despite the hardships encountered. Each morning that heaven claps it's hands and says "wake up," we've got to know that we are on God's mind. He's ready to give us the assurance, guidance, and strength that we need for our journey through all life's struggles.

Synopsis How Not to Be Wrong by : Jordan Ellenberg
A brilliant tour of mathematical thought and a guide to becoming a better thinker, How Not to Be Wrong shows that math is not just a long list of rules to be learned and carried out by rote. Math touches everything we do; It's what makes the world make sense. Using the mathematician's methods and hard-won insights-minus the jargon-professor and popular columnist Jordan Ellenberg guides general readers through his ideas with rigor and lively irreverence, infusing everything from election results to baseball to the existence of God and the psychology of slime molds with a heightened sense of clarity and wonder. Armed with the tools of mathematics, we can see the hidden structures beneath the messy and chaotic surface of our daily lives. How Not to Be Wrong shows us how--Publisher's description.

Synopsis Unintentional Music by : Lane Arye
The last time you whistled a tune or hummed a song-why did you choose that one? You may not consider yourself a musical person, but your little act of unintended music may be the key to unlocking within you a wealth of unsuspected creativity-a kind of creativity that goes way beyond music, too. Lane Arye, PhD, a musician himself, focuses on the music that people do not intend to make. Using the highly regarded psychological model called Process Work, developed by Arnold Mindell, PhD, Arye has been teaching students around the world how to awaken their creativity, using music as the starting point, but including all art forms and ways of expression. The unintentional appears at moments when some hidden part of us, something beyond our usual awareness, suddenly tries to express itself. If we start paying attention to what is trying to happen rather than to what we think should happen, we open the door to self-discovery and creativity. Sometimes what we regard as "mistakes" in self-expression are in fact treasures. The book is rich with real-life stories, ideas, and practical techniques for unlocking creativity, which Arye dispenses with humor, insight, and enthusiasm.
