“You will view a Board filled with unethical decisions, corrupt rules, and poisonous policies,” says author Dr. Shaloma Gray, an education consultant, adjunct professor, and founder of Dove Academy College Preparatory school, a charter school that was shut down by the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools.

“You will read about a Board member with a vendetta against Dove Academy, and how his alleged dirty and corrupt machinations left children hurting, teachers jobless, and a host of creditors and others wondering what happened to the school.”

“Corruption at the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools?” provides:
* An overview of the policies, procedures and laws of the Governor, the Board, and the staff that are failing the charter schools of Arizona.
* The true, full story of Dove Academy College Preparatory school and why it was forced to close its doors.
* Wisdom and warnings for anyone looking for information about opening and operating a charter school.

“The entire Board saga has gone on for more than 16 years as of this writing,” says Dr. Gray. “In its wake remains one of the most unprofessional, unjust, and radically designed charter school systems in the country. I hope this book will inspire Arizona’s political officials and charter holders to demand reform and fairness for all charter school owners.”

“Corruption at the Arizona Board for Charter Schools?” retails for $15.95 plus shipping and handling, and is available at:

In 2005, Sherrod was introduced to Altovise Davis to help write her autobiography. She was the wife of the late Sammy Davis, Jr., the famous Rat Pack performer known as “The World’s Greatest Entertainer.” Sherrod and Altovise, however, started a partnership to write inspirational stories for youth, hoping to motivate them to reach for higher goals.

“At first, it was purely academic,” says Sherrod, “because Sammy started performing when he was only four and missed going to school. He always regretted this and wanted kids to value their education. Seeking a ministry, I also wanted them to know about God’s love … that they could experience his miracles by operating in love.” Ironically, Sherrod’s own faith in this “miracle” principle would soon be tested.

Emotionally, the story was difficult the write, not only because of Sherrod’s own tragedies (while bouncing back from surgery, she lost, both, Altovise and her fiance within 35 days), but because of the enormity of what she’d witnessed: greed, deception, and cruel betrayals. When Sammy died in 1990, he left Altovise with a tax lien of over $5 million dollars, which prompted the auctioning of many of their possessions. Altovise, however, managed to keep a few valuables for herself. But, in one ugly incident after another, even these were “snatched” from her possession, including a billfold Richard Burton had given to Sammy, and the Presidential Ring presented to him by Richard Nixon. For Altovise, the heartbreak of losing these dwindling keepsakes wouldn’t end. Friends tried to protect her, but alcoholism made her vulnerable to abuse. Each season led to further losses, as people swindled her, raided her bank accounts and helped themselves to her safety deposit box. Recalls Sherrod, “It was like watching vultures swarm over and attack someone who was still alive.”

Then, there was the mystery surrounding the screenplay the two women created, entitled, “A Detour to Mexico.” Sherrod’s questions went unanswered when she discovered there were striking similarities between the plot of their musical and the film, “The Cheetah Girls 2: When in Spain,” starring Raven-Symone’. Her calls were never returned, not even by her old childhood friend whom she considered her “mentor.” He was a writer and supervising producer on the show, “That’s So Raven,” and the contact to whom she’d given the original outline and excerpts of their story. The years passed and Sherrod spent many sleepless nights “… torn over all the unanswered questions, and fearing the consequences of even asking them.” She reached a defining moment when she realized that, her fears over “Hollywood’s reaction,” were in direct conflict with her faith, especially her “calling” to reach out and inspire young people. Despite these tragedies, she had to move forward.

Now, having completed the book, Sherrod continues the work that she and Altovise began, knowing that Altovise’s voice will finally be heard … as well as her own.

“The Last Chapter in the Life of Mrs. Sammy Davis, Jr.” can be purchased at www.lulu.com, Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, or purchased (ordered) at most local bookstores. Proceeds from the book will be used to support programs for recovering young addicts, develop motivational programs for students and create inspirational/educational books and films.

KidSpirit Online, a non-profit magazine and Web forum that gives young teens a safe and inclusive space online to dialogue about big life questions, is a finalist in the Golden Lamp Awards for Periodicals, along with publications from Highlights, Scholastic, and the National Association for the Education of Young Children. KidSpirit adds this accolade to its Mom’s Choice Gold Award, and its gold award and “Top Pick” in the magazine category from the National Parenting Publications Association (NAPPA).

An award-winning print magazine, KidSpirit recently completed its first year online. Since its digital transition, KidSpirit has made headlines for publishing provocative content by youth. In the most recent issue, teenagers discuss conflict and peacemaking: one teen interviews youth from Israel, Palestine and Northern Ireland who participated in summer camps to help bridge the gaps of their cultural and historical heritages; another teen from India writes about Gandhi’s legacy in her country and struggles with implementing his teaching in today’s conflicts; yet another teen explores the psychological violence of cyberbullying.

Marc Gopin, renowned international peacemaker and Director of George Mason University’s Center on Religion, Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution, rounds out the issue with a reflection about the spiritual and psychological underpinnings of peacemaking. He describes how young people can create peace by starting with self-reflection and self-examination, confronting inner conflict as a way of preparing oneself for tackling conflict with others.

The Golden Lamp Awards are the educational resource industry’s top honor, recognizing the best overall tools for teaching and learning. Golden Lamp finalists and winners are defined by their superior use of content, design, and fulfillment of the product’s educational mission. Four finalists are chosen in each entry category, representing 16 of the year’s most elite resources for teaching and learning.

“In the twenty-first century, copyright affects us all,” says Professor Tehranian. “With networked PCs and mobile smartphones, we all have the equivalent of a printing press at our disposal and may access and manipulate copyrighted content from around the world in the blink of an eye. Yet, current copyright laws were mostly written before the dawn of the digital era and they’ve failed to keep pace with critical technological changes. As a result, we’ve unwittingly become a nation of infringers.”

“Infringement Nation” presents a rollicking and accessible analysis of the history and evolution of copyright law and its profound impact on the lives of ordinary individuals in the twenty-first century by asking a simple, but surprising, question: could you be committing $4.5 billion in copyright infringements each year?

Mark A. Lemley, William H. Neukom Professor at Stanford Law, writes, “John Tehranian’s witty, engaging book suggests that the answer might be yes, and explains why the fault lies not with you, but with the copyright laws.”

Organized around the theme of the individual in five different copyright-related contexts – an infringer, transformer, pure user, creator and reformer – “Infringement Nation” charts the changing contours of copyright regime and assesses its vitality in the digital age.

In the process, Professor Tehranian challenges some of the most basic assumptions about copyright law by highlighting the unseemly amount of infringement liability an average person rings up daily; the counterintuitive role of the fair use doctrine in radically expanding the copyright monopoly; and the under appreciated expressive interests at play in the consumption of copyrighted works.

He also discusses the surprisingly low level of protection that American copyright law grants many creators; and the growing role of copyright law in the exertion of social regulation.

Drawing upon theory and personal experiences litigating high-profile infringement suits involving the works of such luminaries as Jimi Hendrix, Winston Churchill, Don Henley and others, Professor Tehranian supports his arguments with a rich array of diverse examples. In the process, he touches on the unusual origins of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and the question of numeracy among Amazonian hunter-gatherers, while documenting the history of stand-offs at papal nunciatures and contemplating Ashley Wilkes’s orientation, Captain Kirk’s reincarnation, and Holden Caulfield’s maturation.

“Somewhere along the line copyright became a law everyone breaks,” observes Tim Wu, author of “Master Switch: The Rise and Fall of Information Empires.” “Why that happened and what might be done is the topic of this lively and thoughtful work.”

“Infringement Nation” (ISBN-13: 978-0199733170, Hardcover) is 320 pages and available on Amazon.com: amzn.com/0199733171 .

More information, including a blog on the latest developments in entertainment and intellectual property law, are available at: www.infringementnation.com .

About the Author:
John Tehranian is an academic, attorney and author. He has served as a tenured Professor of Law at the University of Utah, S.J. Quinney College of Law. In the fall of 2011, he will join Southwestern Law School and the Biederman Entertainment and Media Law Institute as the Irwin R. Buchalter Professor of Law. A graduate of Harvard University and Yale Law School, he is a founding partner of One LLP – an entertainment and intellectual property firm in Southern California known for handling high-profile copyright litigation. He is also the author of “Whitewashed” (New York University Press, 2009).

“It’s undeniable that the U.S. economy has started to improve this year, finally,” said PNW editor Christopher Simmons. “Strong sales of tablet PCs like the iPad and iPad 2, dedicated e-book readers like the Kindle, Nook and other portable media devices, even phones for reading books, have proven to be the blessing for the beginning of a new explosion in e-publishing. Additionally, with the Amazon Kindle e-reader starting under $115, you need only purchase about 15 books to make it pay for itself, based on the lower cost of Kindle editions to the print version.” Simmons has been a working journalist for over 25 years, and has written widely on the topic of publishing, marketing, and e-books.

The following list of 11 books are provided as “worth a look” for media and booksellers, as well as avid readers of new and unique literary content. To learn more about these and other books (and e-books) in detail, visit: www.publishersnewswire.com .

* No Longer Silent

“No Longer Silent” (ISBN: 978-0578068954, self-published, paperback, 148 pages) by Tammy Gagnon is an autobiography that depicts years of emotional and sexual abuse, culminating in forgiveness and rebuilding. “The first step was to love me,” says Gagnon. “And, through this self-discovery came this autobiography which serves to provide awareness for other victims of sexual abuse and demonstrates that there is a way to overcome adverse circumstances and to rebuild a meaningful life.” The book encourages victims to seek professional treatment and blends personal narrative with educational advice. The author includes a discussion of essential goals that need to be met to begin the healing process. Gagnon details personal sexual abuse accounts by her grandfather at the early age of nine. These experiences quickly led to an adolescent life of drug abuse and rebellion, ending in leaving home at 14 and living on the street. It answers questions about how one woman battles back from the edge and thrives in a new life. It addresses how to stop self-blame and how to learn to forgive and rebuild. She shares her journey from a life of horror to one that she is now grateful to have.

* Lost In Between Dimensions – Saga II

A new science fiction novel, “Lost In Between Dimensions – Saga II” (ISBN: 978-1589097315, Bookstand Publishing, paperback, 372 pages; Kindle edition and hardcover editions also available) by Jorge Scerba, continues the adventure begun in book one. In Saga I of “Lost In Between Dimensions,” the young computer experts from the Herman Company have been lured to another dimension with promises of wild success, wealth, women and more by the Emperor of the Great Vaporich Empire who wants to use the men to establish his own networked computer system to expand and empower his empire. Now in Saga II, Al, Ed, George, Jim. John, Raul and Rich desperately want to find a way home to Earth, but find they are compelled to work for the Emperor whose empire is teetering on the brink of civil war.

* Sextopia

A new science fiction novel, “Sextopia” (ISBN: 978-0983289203, Out in Left Publishing, paperback, 342 pages; Kindle edition available), authored by Daniel Printz, focuses on a future world, devastated by bloodshed that is transformed by two prominent and influential men who take the small, remaining population and devise a system where everyone is governed by the original sin. While “Sextopia” is categorized as science fiction, there is an offbeat, edgy humor that complements the story. There are also disturbing and frightening scenes. Daniel Printz is a festival award-winning filmmaker. His 2006 feature “Pinko’s Place” played in film festivals across the country. “Sextopia” is his debut novel.

* The MultiThread Marketer: How To Hire (Or Better Yet) Become One

In “The MultiThread Marketer: How To Hire (Or Better Yet) Become One” (ISBN: 978-1607460541, FastPencil, Inc., paperback, 152 pages; Kindle edition available) author Douglas E. Mitchell provides business leaders a template for making the best marketing hire, provides recent graduates and mid-career professionals a road map to dramatically increase their value in the marketplace, and entertains the reader with real life anecdotes and case studies that drive the message home. The concept of multithreading is borrowed from computer processing where millions of calculations are conducted in parallel to speed results. The same theory can be applied to conducting marketing activities in any agile business. By leveraging the expertise of numerous “threads,” a business can often make a quantum leap in marketing output.

* Human Capital Analytics: Measuring and Improving Talent Development

“Human Capital Analytics: Measuring and Improving Talent Development – 2nd Edition” (ISBN: 978-1595716446, Word Assn Pub, hardcover, 256 pages) by Kent Barnett and Jeffrey Berk, serves as a follow up to Berk and Barnett’s first edition, published in 2007, where the surface of measuring human capital was scratched. This book is meant to further thoughts on human capital analytics by taking into account significant emerging issues, ranging from informal learning to scrap learning, that have taken place in recent years. They carefully explain the relevant measurement concepts and then share practical suggestions on how to implement the concepts with step-by-step instructions and plenty of diagrams. The reader will find numerous examples and case studies from KnowledgeAdvisors’ work with clients. In addition to the basics, the book covers concepts such as linking learning to results, the Six Sigma approach, measurement maturity, and manager engagement.

* ICEWINE

“ICEWINE” (ISBN: 978-1589097995, Bookstand Publishing, paperback, 202 pages; Kindle edition available), a new novel by R.R. Bruno, is a fast-paced action adventure that takes the reader from the last days of Hitler’s Germany to a modern day treasure hunt involving world travel, exotic cuisine, and wine. The “ICEWINE” adventure begins when Alex James and his friends place the winning bid on a rare 1939 icewine which was once owned by Herman Goring, second in command to Adolph Hitler. By luck, the group uncovers a microfilm on the underside of the label that was hidden by Goring. The microfilm contains a clue to a fortune he hid during the waning months of the war; a fortune that would be used to begin a new Reich. The group is able to crack the code, setting off a cross-country search for hidden treasure in Europe. What Alex and friends do not know is that there is a group of Nazi-killers who are after the icewine – and they will not rest until they have it.

* Pebbles

“Pebbles” (ISBN: 978-1589098176, Bookstand Publishing, paperback, 220 pages; Kindle edition available), a new book by author Davis K. Thanjan, is a fascinating chronicle of prehistoric times with special reference to heritage sites around the world that survived more than two millennia. “Pebbles deals with human history before the birth of Christ,” says Thanjan, a scientific researcher and author of “Kerala, The Legacy of Apostle Thomas in India,” and “Historic Kerala.” The book covers historical sites from the earliest humanoid fossil sites in Africa that are more than one million years old to the great Roman and Chinese architectural buildings and monuments in the century before Christ. Each of the 15 chapters in the book contains a short summary of the time period, and the major archeological and historic sites that remain. “The ancient archaeological and historic sites mentioned in the book are testaments to the human accomplishments that survived more than 2,000 years, like pebbles in the sands of time,” he adds.

* My Email to God Bounced

“My Email to God Bounced” (ISBN: 978-1456056278, PublishAmerica, paperback, 34 pages) is the second book authored by Timothy A. Sawyer. “This second book was driven by my first book (‘A Patzer’s Story’),” says Sawyer. “I was asked about the role of God and religion in battling my depression, and after self-reflection, ‘My Email to God Bounced,’ answers this question. While the book is short, it’s intended to spark self-reflection in others.” Here is an excerpt: What this book is, in a nutshell, is a viewpoint from MY experience that God plays second fiddle, if any fiddle at all, in a church setting or the veneer of a church, giving way to people with their agendas, vendettas and personal goals. This forces people who are seeking true solace through a church, religion or faith to give pause and think that there is nobody or nothing there to help them when they most need it. To add to this, it is also my opinion that there exists a disparity between the Christian faith and what is actually practiced.

* Kabul in Flames

“Kabul in Flames” (ISBN: 978-8799295227, Danish International Edition, paperback, 292 pages) was such a success in Denmark that Danish International Edition announced its release in the U.S., in English. The author, Masood Baluch, is an Afghanistan refugee who has been living in Denmark since the age of 15. At the center of “Kabul in Flames” is Bashir, an Afghan man who lives a seemingly peaceful life with his family in the small middle-class community of Kabul. Then one day, in 1978, a communist coup takes down the elected government. The coup and subsequent Soviet invasion have dramatic consequences on Bashir’s family. Sixty percent of the book’s proceeds are being donated to KOCHAH, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance and educational opportunities for deprived children as well as creating an awareness of children protection and their rights.

* Cold Blooded: The New Year’s Day Massacre

“Cold Blooded” (ISBN: 978-1589097896, Bookstand Publishing, paperback, 91 pages; Kindle edition available) is a chilling and shocking new book by “The Ghost,” which tells the true story of the Richmond Virginia family that unwittingly harbored the infamous Harvey family murderers for six days in 2006. “This is the version of the murders that never made the news,” says author Larry Johnson, who writes under the pseudonym The Ghost. “This is the story of Lilly Ann Pauley, the woman who made the 911 call that would later put an end to Ricky Gray and Ray Dandridge’s vicious murder spree. This story will bring readers face to face with pure evil.”

* The Loving Heart: Navigating the Journey from Conflict to Peace

Dr. Laurie Pappas announced the release of her new book, “The Loving Heart: Navigating the Journey from Conflict to Peace” (ISBN: 978-0578060545, paperback, 304 pages). It’s also accompanied by an interactive journal – “The Loving Heart Companion.” The book’s underlying premise is that people can reeducate themselves in a way that opens inner channels of tenderness, understanding, compassion, motivation and purpose. Out of these channels emerge energies for mending conflict, healing wounds, establishing harmony and creating inner peace. “The Loving Heart” is packed with easy-to-relate-to personal stories, more than 30 years of observations and study, a myriad of self-help tools and spiritually-rich material. It contains ancient truths that can be applied anywhere, anytime to anyone. These truths connect human beings to each other, leading directly to peaceful, harmonious and joyous living.

“Today lung cancer is not the automatic death sentence it once was,” says the author, Dr. Vladimir Lange. “New treatments, new drugs, and earlier diagnosis make survival much more likely than it was just a few years ago.”

Lung cancer patients often struggle under the stigma that their disease was self-inflicted. Their physicians sometimes approach them with less optimism, citing the poor overall survival rates. Simply put, as a group, lung cancer patients are under-informed, and under-encouraged.

“The doctor told me I had eight months to live,” remembers Ed, a lung cancer survivor. “That was eleven years ago.”

Covering the entire experience from diagnosis to recovery, “Be a Survivor – Lung Cancer Treatment Guide” features clear explanations, outstanding graphics, and candid testimonials by those who “have been there before.” But what makes the book truly unique is the positive, upbeat, encouraging tone that seeks to motivate and empower both the patients, and their families.

“It’s certainly one of the best lung cancer patient guides I’ve seen in my 13 years of working with lung cancer patients,” says Win Boerckel, the Lung Cancer Program Coordinator at CancerCare.

In the tradition of other widely acclaimed “Be a Survivor” books on breast and colorectal cancers, the new Lung Cancer Treatment Guide will fill the void that exists in educational materials on this common and challenging disease.

Vladimir Lange, M.D., a graduate of Harvard Medical School, is the creator and author of hundreds of DVD’s and books that are used to educate millions of patients and physicians worldwide. His programs have been translated into a dozen languages, and are on the “recommended” lists of major patient advocacy groups.

Lange Productions, the publisher of the book, is based in Hollywood, California, and has been the leading provider of medical media for over 20 years. For more information, please visit the website at www.langeproductions.com .
