He made 3D Cad drawings and spent much time traveling overseas to Asia where he also learned to speak basic Korean and Japanese. If you think that wasn't enough to keep him busy during the Ibanez years, Jim rolled up his sleeves and sunk his teeth into writing a fabulous book for Ibanez entitled "Ibanez the Untold Story" which was published in 2004. There was so much work, research, and thought that went into that thick hard bound impressive book! A total must have for any Ibanez owner.

Описание: Can life be better after a brain injury? We think so...
Are you one of the millions of people who suffer from a concussion every year? Or has someone in your family suffered from a mild traumatic brain injury and you feel that there is little or nothing you can do about it? Then this book is for you
We believe that Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS) is the #1 Silent, Secret Killer of Relationships, Careers and Lives. Whether it happens from an auto accident, a fall, domestic violence, or a sports related injury, there is help and there is hope for recovery. The goal of this book is to provide some insights and possibilities by following one man's revealing journey from motorcycle accident, to discovering he had a brain injury, to finding ways he could live an extraordinary life again. "Concussion Transformation" is about finding the hope and resources to transform your tragedy into a triumph
The brain is still a vast unexplored universe and complex mystery. Even the slightest brain trauma can have major effects to the person who was injured and symptoms manifest differently in each victim. Often times brain injuries go undiagnosed, are left untreated and therefore the person suffers alone and is often left thinking they are going crazy and have no hope. Some symptoms include: personality shifts, loss of interest in activities that were once important, depression, anger, anxiety attacks, and many more. "ConcussionTransformation" was written to give the reader 7 simple steps the author, Kevin Donahue, used in his own recovery.
No one needs to suffer alone. Help us bring this struggle and suffering out of the darkness and into the light. Share this book with friends, family, or anyone who may be going through the terrible struggle of Post Concussion Syndrome. We are survivors and together we can make our lives better and thrive by shining a light on this silent secret killer. Join us in helping to provide community, hope and prosperity to those who need it most

Описание: In a pirate's lair, nothing is as it seems . . .
Shipwrecked When Royce Hastings is found washed up on the shore of a verdant tropical island, he tells the natives he is a merchant headed for Mozambique. The truth, however, is far more mercenary. Noble by birth, the once favored Royce has lost his fortune and family; now he is a hired henchman on the trail of an elusive pirate. His "shipwreck" was a fake. He'll stop at nothing to infiltrate the island and capture his prey. His mother and sisters' lives depend on it.
The last thing Royce expects is to be captured himself. But the lovely young woman who tends to his wounds in the tropics quickly takes hold of his heart. Simone is the island's healer, and her skilled ministrations not only awaken his soul but disturb his conscience. His path has been predetermined; his identity must remain concealed at all costs. Yet the passion he feels in Simone's sultry, loving arms cannot be denied. With his loyalties torn, Royce must make an agonizing, unthinkable choice. . . .

Описание: Amid growing interest in food and drink as an academic discipline in recent years, this volume is the first to provide insight into eating and drinking by focusing on what the ancients themselves actually had to say about this important topic. A thorough and varied sourcebook, it is structured thematically and is a unique asset to any course on food and foodways. The chronological scope of the material extends from Greece of the 8th century BCE to the Late Roman Empire of the 4th century CE. Each chapter consists of an introduction along with a concluding bibliography of suggested readings. The excerpts themselves, rendered in clear and readable English that remains faithful to the original Latin or Greek, are set in their proper social and historical context, with the author of each passage fully identified. An unparalleled compilation of essential source material for Classics courses and with a wide range of evidence, drawing upon literary, inscriptional, legal and religious testimony, Food and Drink in Antiquity will also be particularly well suited to the interdisciplinary focus of modern food studies.
