This is about the 24 solar terms. The two symbols mean the end of summer. The terms developed about 200 years ago for farming to tell farmers when to plant and when to harvest.  This was a great card and I learned something new!

The Little Woods

Book Description

July 10, 2012
Are the woods behind St. Bede's Academy really haunted, or does bad stuff just happen there? When Calista Wood, a new student, arrives midway through her junior year, St. Bede's feels like a normal school . . . until she discovers that a girl had disappeared a couple of months earlier. Some kids think she ran away, others think she was murdered, but it's only when Cally starts digging around that she finds the startling truth.

Watch as Cally enters a world of privilege, weekend-long parties, high school romances, and . . . well-kept secrets. This page-turner will appeal to teens looking for a fast-paced thriller. Written in a voice at once gripping and crystal clear, debut novelist, McCormick Templeman, will take readers on a twisting and turning journey as only a "new girl" can experience.  

About the Author

McCORMICK TEMPLEMAN is a graduate of Reed College, holds two master's degrees, and is a licensed acupuncturist and herbalist. Ms. Templeman attended a school not unlike St. Bedes as a high schooler.



The only real issue I had with this book was that our main character didn't really know anything about being a teen.  I understand that she lost her father and her sister at a young age. But, still that doesn't mean she should live under a rock.  I know so many people that have no idea about the world around you.  So that kind of ticked me off.

Anyway this book was filled to the brim with twisted mystery and suspense! I thought that it was one person who did it then found out how wrong I was with an end that I didn't see coming!

This is another book with one girl and two guys a romance.  Which I'm kinda of getting tired of.  Why not just leave it with one guy one girl?  Why make it complicated?

The Miracle Chip

























Join us July 2nd - 31st.  For this exciting tour of Promo stops, reviews, short interviews, guest posts, and of course GIVEAWAYS!!  

About the book

F.E.M.A. Prison Camps are a Smoke Screen!!!!!!!! 

Yes, there are F.E.M.A. prison camps, but they were purposely constructed to distract us from the TRUE PRISON CAMPS; the prison camps that will detain those citizens that refuse to be implanted with the comingbiochips….
Did you know, the Military has built its own prison system right here in the United States, and these prisons are notfor housing military prisoners?  In factmilitary prisoners(soldiers who have been court martial-ed and transferred into the BOP system) are band from being housed in these prisons located on military bases!
Everyone has heard about the F.E.M.A. prison camps. If it was such a secret, why does everyone know about them?  They are small, insignificant pieces of property enclosed with razor-wire topped fences and a few guard towers.  Have you seen the pictures? I mean, how many prisoners do you think these few F.E.M.A. camps could hold? 
Of course, right now, most of these prisons located on military property are housing federal inmates for the Bureau of Prisons (BOP).  A few of these prisons are already empty, waiting! For what
However, like the book The Miracle Chip, when the BOP starts administering the biochips to the prisoners, under the New Prison Reform Act, and the federal prison population is reduced tremendously, all of these prisoners housed on military property will be transferred back into the BOP institutions.   This will leave the military with a complete prison system in place; vacant… ready to be filled with detainees.      
National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2012contains controversial provisions that allow the military to detain suspects (citizens) without due process or habeas corpus.
Now, you know where these citizens will be detained! Unlike these F.E.M.A. camps this prison system will be able to hold a mass number of the population without a problem.
 In  this book, The Miracle Chip you will take a exciting journey with Sergeant Major Tracy Long and discover what it will be like when the military takes control of its prison system!
