In 2003, casting their fortunes—and their lives—to the wind, the Ellison family embarked on what they thought would be a one-year voyage on their forty-seven-foot sloop, Promise. Five years and more than 25,000 nautical miles later, the family of four returned to the United States and dry land. In this memoir, author Alex Ellison chronicles his family’s adventures on the seas. Culled from a detailed daily journal that Ellison began keeping at the onset of the voyage when he was just eight years old, A Star to Sail Her By reveals his transition from enthusiastic child to capable sailor and reflective young adult. He learned two important lessons as they traveled from port to port: not everything always works the way it should, and change is really the only thing you can count on. “A Top 5 Book Pick” —Yachting Magazine “A Star to Sail Her By is sure to entertain and inspire people who dream of adventure.” —Jennifer Castle, editor, PBSkids “Ellison’s earnest, genuine style is reminiscent of Robin Graham’s in Dove. In crafting a twenty-first century bildungsroman at sea, with a tender family spin, he’ll leave you positively envious.” —Richard King, PhD, professor of literature of the sea, Williams College “A terrific tale of an unbelievable upbringing.” —Clint Grantberry, KLIF, Dallas, TX “In and of itself, this memoir of a 25,000–nautical mile voyage is informative, entertaining, and eye-opening. That a high school student wrote it is astounding.” —Meredith Laitos, editor, SAIL

"The Waiting Room" is the story of how one tragic event in life can not only change the course of that life, but teach us valuable lessons - some good, some bad. It's honest, and at times in-your-face, but most of all it shows that the light at the end of the tunnel is NOT always a train. In this book you will get an insight into the workings, and mishaps, of Workman's Comp, Long Term Disability, the insurance industry as well as the red tape of our justice system, all in layman's terms that anyone can understand. In the story that follows "The Waiting Room", "A Life Interrupted", Shari chronicles her life as a Caregiver, which started at a very early age. This journey involved many personal sacrafices on her part, which led her through a life of placing everyone else's well being ahead of her own. Together, these two stories give you a well rounded image of life and all of it's tragedies from two perspectives - the injured and sick, as well as the Caregiver.

The tall ship Sofia sank off New Zealand’s North Island in February 1982, stranding its crew on disabled life rafts for five days. They struggled to survive as any realistic hope of rescue dwindled. Just a few years earlier, Pamela Sisman Bitterman was a naïve swabbie looking for adventure, signing on with a sailing co-operative taking this sixty-year-old, 123-foot, three-masted gaff-topsail schooner around the globe. The aged Baltic trader had been rescued from a wooden boat graveyard in Sweden and reincarnated as a floating commune in the 1960s. By the time Sofia went down, Bitterman had become an able seaman, promoted first to bos’un and then acting first mate, immersing herself in this life of a tall ship sailor, world traveler, and survivor.

How do we really get on in this world? Tossed around by gain, buffeted by loss, borne aloft by praise, cast down by blame, how can we not be ground under, lose all direction, confidence, and sense of purpose? The Buddha had clear guidance on how to rise above these 'worldly winds', and Vajragupta here opens up for us the Buddha's compassionate yet uncompromising teaching. Using reflections, exercises and suggestions for daily practice, this book can help you find greater equanimity and perspective in the ups and downs of everyday life.

The end of the Cold War has brought the foreign policy of the United States under close scrutiny. The old tension between isolationism and internationalism that has always framed debates over foreign policy in Washington has found new expression in debates over unilateralism and multilateralism. Proponents of these two schools of thought seek to influence a hierarchy of values over what constitutes the 'national interest.' The debate offers interesting insights into determinants of US policy towards the Gulf. It is easy to define US interests in the Gulf, but it is more difficult to identify the means or policies that may best serve to secure these interests. A marked reluctance to incur casualties among its military forces has implications for US influence in the Gulf region. When coupled with shifts in regional alliance patterns since the defeat of Iraq in 1991, the ability of Washington to present a credible security profile throughout the region has inevitably been impaired. The extent to which US policy towards Iran and Iraq has been influenced by domestic lobby groups, not least the pro-Israel lobby groups, has also undermined a rational analysis of Washington's interests and policy objectives in the region. In examining these issues, this paper concludes that US policy towards the Gulf lacks a unity of purpose and clarity of thought that has left its strategy of dual containment struggling to adjust to changing alliance patterns throughout the region. With the demise of dual containment, and changing patterns of bilateral relations throughout the Gulf, Washington's policy in the region is in danger of 'sailing without an anchor.'
