| boom boom choo choo train: Grand Theft Nuclear!: (www.nuclear_warheads_4_sale@_mayak.rus) James Vincent Novak, 2012-08-16 Nuclear warheads that a wheelin' & dealin' Russian General steals from a stockpile of 33,000 at the Mayak warhead reprocessing facility are sold for big bucks. North Korea buys two and the Arab League buys a monstrous Israel Annihilator. In the background, Afghanistan terrorist El H'mm'l prepares to hijack 200 plutonium dirty-bomb kits from Mayak for a hit on the American aircraft carrier. The Russian General and crafty CIA Director jointly scheme to hijack the Annihilator warhead via a rusty old North Korean minesweeper-American submarine combo. Neo Nazis move in to hijack the sub for a missile attack on Israel, unaware it has no missiles or torpedoes. When an Internet blogger exposes the three hijack plans and posts a cryptic address, www.Nuclear_Warheads_4_Sale@_Mayak.Rus, the Arab League realizes it's been snookered by the general. MOSSAD moves in to aid the American submarine and also help destroy Iran's Natanz nuclear weapons facility. |

| boom boom choo choo train: We Band of Angels Elizabeth Norman, 2013-10-29 In the fall of 1941, the Philippines was a gardenia-scented paradise for the American Army and Navy nurses stationed there. War was a distant rumor, life a routine of easy shifts and dinners under the stars. On December 8 all that changed, as Japanese bombs began raining down on American bases in Luzon, and this paradise became a fiery hell. Caught in the raging battle, the nurses set up field hospitals in the jungles of Bataan and the tunnels of Corregidor, where they tended to the most devastating injuries of war, and suffered the terrors of shells and shrapnel. But the worst was yet to come. After Bataan and Corregidor fell, the nurses were herded into internment camps where they would endure three years of fear, brutality, and starvation. Once liberated, they returned to an America that at first celebrated them, but later refused to honor their leaders with the medals they clearly deserved. Here, in letters, diaries, and riveting firsthand accounts, is the story of what really happened during those dark days, woven together in a deeply affecting saga of women in war. Praise for We Band of Angels “Gripping . . . a war story in which the main characters never kill one of the enemy, or even shoot at him, but are nevertheless heroes . . . Americans today should thank God we had such women.”—Stephen E. Ambrose “Remarkable and uplifting.”—USA Today “[Elizabeth M. Norman] brings a quiet, scholarly voice to this narrative. . . . In just a little over six months these women had turned from plucky young girls on a mild adventure to authentic heroes. . . . Every page of this history is fascinating.”—Carolyn See, The Washington Post “Riveting . . . poignant and powerful.”—The Dallas Morning News Winner of the Lavinia Dock Award for historical scholarship, the American Academy of Nursing National Media Award, and the Agnes Dillon Randolph Award |

| boom boom choo choo train: First Words Barbara Levine Offenbacher, 2012-11-24 First Words: A Parent's Step-by-Step Guide to Helping a Child with Speech and Language Delays gives parents the information they need to allow them to stimulate their child’s speech and language. Parents are given actual samples of how children with autism and other language delays respond differently to questions and how their responses can be redirected in order to start building connections. Offenbacher explains terms such as speech and language, typical language delay, PDD-Pervasive Developmental Delay, ASD-Autism Spectrum Disorder, Asperger’s Syndrome, and ABA-Applied Behavioral Analysis. The book outlines the typical developmental steps of speech and language acquisition, and where parents should begin when starting to help their child. It suggests the types of toys, and experiences that stimulate language, as well as a floor plan to arrange a “work area” and learning center in their home. It provides check lists for them to evaluate their child every step of the way and set meaningful and attainable goals. This book is not meant to replace professional intervention. But it guides parents in becoming a para-speech partner in maximizing the stimulation their child receives so they develop skills for communicating. |

| boom boom choo choo train: Children's books, brain development, and language acquisition Ralf Thiede, 2018-11-13 This book correlates English-speaking children’s brain development and acquisition of language with the linguistic input that comes from children’s books. Drawing from the most current research on the developing brain, the author demonstrates how language acquisition is exclusively interactive, and highlights the benefit that accrues when that interaction includes the exploratory language play found in early childhood literature. Through discussions of specific domains of grammar, the relation of these domains to children’s literature through scaffolding, and the resultant linguistic and cognitive advantages for the child, this volume offers an innovative approach to early brain maturation. |
