    CREATE A FURRY LOVE-CONNECTION! 
    Cats are considered a part of the family, but what do you do when your kitty interferes with love and romance? When your cat hates your date, but you're smitten, what's a caring pet owner to do? Or perhaps you're pregnant, and your longtime "fur-kid" acts jealous, or you worry Grandma's cats aren't used to toddler antics. The stress put on family relationships can make animal behaviors and communication go sideways, and turn a once loving pet bond into a dysfunctional relationship. Cats often lose their homes or lives when the bond breaks, unless you teach cats to accept babies, toddlers, and lovers. 
    MY CAT HATES MY DATE! packs prescriptive advice into a short how-to guide that offers step-by-step instructions how to improve family relationships between babies, toddlers, kids and adults, and your furry family members. You'll learn:  
    •Why Cats Hate New People 
    •7 Tips to Fix Feline Jealousy 
    •7 Ways Cats Show Love 
    •The Health Benefits of Pets & Why Kids Benefit Most! 
    •Cat-to-Baby Introductions 
    •Cat-to-Toddler/Kid Introductions 
    •Why "Acting" Like Cats Makes You a Great Romantic Catch 
    With a fun conversational tone and easy to use proven techniques, MY CAT HATES MY DATE! helps ensure your loving bond remains strong and intact. 
    NOTE: If your sweetheart wants you to choose between him/her and your cat, suggest they read this book, before you show 'em the door. Use the book as a "pet test" to teach dates how to win affection from your furry family members!

    A complete guide to the historic campus, featuring archival photos along with a close look at the structures and the people who inhabited them. 
     
    Founded in 1801 as South Carolina College, the University of South Carolina is one of the nation’s oldest public colleges. Located in the heart of downtown Columbia and bound by Sumter, Pendleton, Bull, and Greene Streets, this historic landscape, known today as the Horseshoe, has both endured and prospered through more than two centuries of South Carolina’s often-turbulent history. 
     
    In On the Horseshoe: A Guide to the Historic Campus of the University of South Carolina, Elizabeth Cassidy West and Katharine Thompson Allen offer a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the historic Horseshoe. So much more than just a walking tour of Carolina’s historic original campus, On the Horseshoe features a wealth of archival photographs and drawings dating back to the nineteenth century and also provides a close look at the Horseshoe’s structures as well as the men and women who lived, worked, and studied in them. 
     
    A numbered map with corresponding descriptions locates more than two dozen structures on the original campus and includes the history of each one, the important events that took place there, and its current use. An accompanying Web site (www.sc.edu/horseshoe) provides additional information and images for those who wish to further their knowledge of the university’s history. Walter Edgar, Neuffer Professor of Southern Studies Emeritus and Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History at USC, provides a foreword. 
     
    “Whether a native of Columbia, a South Carolina alumnus or a visitor to the Palmetto State, On the Horseshoe is a must-read for those interested in one of the most storied and historic facets of South Carolina’s capital city.” —John M. Sherrer III, Historic Columbia Foundation 
     
    “Allen and West offer a well-researched and beautifully written narrative that highlights the physical and social histories of the campus. They seamlessly chronicle the construction of buildings, institutional traditions, the Civil War, slavery, Jim Crow, the civil rights movement, influential people, and ongoing memorialization efforts that showcase the rich and complex history of the university. This is an essential book for anyone interested in the University of South Carolina history, or southern history as a whole.” —Kelley Deetz, President’s Commission on Slavery and the University, University of Virginia

    This is a 2-book bundle, consisting of these themes 
    Theme 1: The power of our minds stretches far beyond our current comprehension. No matter how much science keeps progressing, they still find new wonders of the human brain. 
      
    One of the reasons for this, is that the subconscious mind suppresses and exposes many impulses and neural pathways that we don’t generally notice in our daily lives.  
      
    Theme 2: First, we’ll talk about how to improve your concentration skills and memory. This lies at the heart of the book.  
      
    Next, we will go over the significant challenges that many people face when they are working from home. This has become more common these days, and therefore, it seemed like a crucial topic to include in this book.
