Plot: While searching for Phan’s missing daughter, Boston residents Mei Li Phan and Landry Carmichael stumble into a massive conspiracy. Their search threatens powerful forces seeking radical change. So now – they must die. The conspiracy: nuke a major American city.

Phan and Carmichael framed as terrorists. Hunted by authorities. Killers hard on their heels. Where can they go? Who can they trust? But past is prologue. Mei Li Phan is not what she seems; Carmichael no stranger to violence. They must each relive painful history to muster the strength, courage, and cunning to survive – and more, to save the lives of millions.

According to the Council of Foreign Relations “…roughly two-thirds of terrorism in the United States was conducted by non-Islamic American extremists from 1980-2001; and from 2002-2005, it went up to 95 percent.”

Says military theorist John Robb, “Strategic attacks are possible with a network of less than 70 people.”

Author Lloyd R. Prentice says, “I’m a close follower of current events. The politics of war crimes, cult religion, and domestic terrorism fascinate and, frankly, terrify me. The Gospel of Ashes asks ‘what if?’”

Scheduled for June 2012 release by Writers Glen Publications, “The Gospel of Ashes,” ISBN 978-0-9825892-2-9, is distributed through Ingram Book Company and can be purchased through Amazon and other major on line booksellers, from independent bookstores by request, or direct from the publisher at: sales@writersglen.com.

“Former Ranger and Trinity Financial board members Nick Fotiu and Ron Greschner both contacted me shortly after the beating incident in Philly asking what we could do to show support to these Rangers fans,” explains Grandich. “Having already secured a suite at the February12th game, I decided to invite both Neal and Michael to be my guest with fan favorites Ron and Nick and we’ve invited several other ex-Rangers,” Grandich says.

He notes that he is also glad to see the Rangers organization invite the fans to a game later in February.

“I felt especially motivated because of my involvement with current and retired professional athletes in the New York/New Jersey area and the concerns fans have of attending Philadelphia-based sporting events. I was most pleased to see not only how swiftly the Philadelphia police handled the case, but many Philly fans outraged by the attack,” Grandich adds.

Auricchio, a new dad with a 3-month old baby, is a Woodbridge Police officer and Iraq war veteran. He received the Purple Heart for his service in Iraq. As a result of the unprovoked beating the two endured at the hands of Flyers fans as they were waiting for cheesesteaks after the outdoor Winter Classic hockey game at Citizens Park Bank, Auricchio is said to require surgery and the installation of steel plate under his eye to heal a fracture. Both men suffered head injuries, and Janocko also suffered an orthopedic injury.

Grandich contacted the pair through friends in the NJ State Police to invite them to the Rangers vs. Capitals game and both men were thrilled to accept.

“Meeting men listed on the list of All-Time New York Rangers Greats is a thrill for any Ranger fan. Meeting two or more at once in a private suite while watching the game? That’s a dream come true. I am happy to be able to make that happen for these two fans,” says Grandich.

At the same time, he is a member OBS – Organization of Black Screenwriters – and SAG – Screen Actors Guild. These affiliations enjoy a long term contribution inspiring unknown gifted talent from the Black Community, which has resulted becoming professional opportunities in the entertainment industry.

In recent years, Yancey Hendrieth held the post of Equal Opportunity Chairperson of SAG promoting film and television roles for minorities, women, elderly and the handicap. This position required traveling to regional conventions.

A KING KONG Size Gorilla Hand was operated manually from off camera. Special Effects established this larger-then-life movie among the Mysterious Easter Island Stone Heads. Voluptuous Amazon Women rode bareback spirited stallions adding opulent production value. These skilled ladies and trained horses were actually rodeo champions enhancing expert horsemanship to this “Conan” Style Fantasy Theme. Rondo Award Voters validated his collaboration by their nomination “Best Independent Production on DVD.”

Quotes by Publisher Mike Federicks, Prehistoric Times Magazine: “LOST ON ADVENTURE ISLAND” is a dinosaur movie, sci-fi fantasy, which has achieved International Recognition by the Official French Web: www.clubdesmonstres.com/lostonadventureisland.htm as a cult horror classic among multi-million dollar horror classics available via dinosaurmoviefans.com.”

Quotes by the late Samuel Z. Arkoff, Producer of “Mad Max” are handwritten inside the cover of “Flying Through Hollywood By The Seat Of My Pants,” an autobiography, “Dear Yancey, It’s been a good life for me in an interesting game. I’m delighted that you grew up watching my movies. In a sense, so did I. I wish you same kind of luck I’ve had. Best regards, Sam Arkoff.”

The 6th Annual 2007 Rondo Award Nomination for his “Lost On Adventure Island” has potential to attract studios to produce his Pink Female Parody of The Hulk, entitled “Incredible Pink Woman.”

In her hair are cotton, corn, wheat, and tobacco. She wears a modified “Phrygian” cap and is surrounded with the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM, thirteen stars (seven left and six right), and the date.

“With sporting events and the need for greater fan loyalty growing annually by leaps and bounds, with no ending in sight, I thought now would be the perfect time to get on board with sports related products,” says Emory Williams Jr., the company President and CEO.

Williams, an ex-football player and athlete, now an avid fan of all sports gave special thought as to what business area of sports he would venture into. “Making a full assessment of sports as a whole and realizing the role fans play in the equation, rally towels came to mind,” explains Williams. “Fans want to be involved; giving them more to work with is the key to an intimidating/noisy stadium or arena. Sports Fans are the ‘X-Factor.’”

Williams knows that a products name has a great deal to do with the products success, so Williams got busy on product name development and came up with what he felt was a true winner “The Heat-Wave Towel.” The idea was helped by the Motown song from 1963 by Martha Reeves and The Vandellas, “Love Is Like a ‘Heat Wave.’”

“The name lends itself well for products of this type, emphatic waving is exactly what the fans will be doing,” adds Williams.

Today, the company has already developed a total of five different Rally Towel names (all are registered trademarks) with several more in development. Sports fans locally and nationally have been ordering the products from the company website. “We find that Miami Heat Fans love the Heat-Wave Towels,” adds Williams. “They are a very big seller.”

Although there is presently no affiliation between The Miami Heat organization and True Fan Sports (the two have already met for discussion) consumers and fans are already linking the two, buying for season start.

The Heat-Wave Towel® will soon be available through department stores, athletic outlets, even the little corner stores, making sure everyone has access to the products. Says Williams, “We are also putting together a licensing division, allowing manufacturers the opportunity through licensing to produce goods under our trademarked names, this is a convenient way to help us build our brands.”

Previously shot in Los Angeles, the championship play-by-play is announced by Van Earl Wright, former CNN anchor and a past host on FSN Final Score. Brian Dunkleman, one of the original co-hosts of American Idol, hosted the 16 episodes in the Sky Ball League series.

Sky Ball is an extremely competitive and spirited combination of basketball, baseball and volleyball, with a little lacrosse thrown in. The game uses Sky Balls and smash gloves and is played on a court with goals set at each end that consist of three scoring pads raised 12 – 17 feet above the court. Game highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pCD1YXJ9iM .

Brian Kessler, co-creator of The Sky Ball League along with sports executive Danny Swartz, says, “The huge success of our first season exceeded our expectations. We started out small and snowballed to the finals with amazing athletes, great personalities and a tremendous fan base. Next season we will be increasing the number of teams that will play in the league.”

“Sky Ball League has just scratched the surface of the sports world,” adds Swartz, “as evidenced by the ever-increasing numbers of athletes registering online to compete in our second season.”

Slightly larger than a softball and pumped with oxygen and helium, Sky Balls are capable of bouncing up to 75 feet. Besides the requisite physical dexterity, the challenge to players is that they must not only excel in controlling the ball, but the skillful manipulation of a challenging piece of equipment.

Notes Kessler, “Age knows no bounds in this energetic game. Across the entire league, this season’s players ranged between 18 and 39, and neither age nor gender has made a bit of difference on how well anyone plays.”

This is Himalayan Action and Adventure at its awe-inspiring, breath-taking, heart-pounding best!!!

They called her “Uberjoy,” but her real name was Joycelyn Eberhard. She was a finalist in the Miss Teen Idaho beauty pageant, but now she’s gone missing-in China, no less. Her fiance, Orion, worried when she signed up for the Peace Corps, but he never expected something like this. Her disappearance is shattering to him, so he has no choice but to head overseas and search for the woman he loves. His search takes him to the remote Himalayan Mountains in Nepal and Tibet, where getting help from local authorities is not as easy as he would have hoped. He is forced to seek assistance elsewhere, from intrepid special operations mercenaries and unorthodox mountaineering guides.

“Questing for Uberjoy” is a quest for love. It is also a quest for meaning, as Eastern culture surrounds heroic Orion and teaches him more about himself than any experience in America. One moment philosophical and the next filled with extreme danger, it is a story that could change your life and send you on your own heroic quest.

Winner of 2011 “Editor’s Choice” and “Rising Star” distinctions, and praise from Book Reviewers:

“I’ve just finished reading Konrad Ventana’s ‘Questing for Uberjoy’ and I must say it is masterfully done. The adventure storyline is terrific, the philosophy intellectually and emotionally meaningful, and the attention to writer’s craft apparent. The novel features many unforgettable scenes and outstanding, beautifully painted imagery that will stick with readers long after they’ve put the book aside.”

“The disappearance of a beautiful Peace Corps volunteer makes for a great adventure story. Orion’s character-arc begins with a crushingly powerful one-dimensional outlook and philosophy. However, Orion’s one-dimensional outlook is his flaw, and this is a masterful stroke by the author, since Orion’s character does indeed arc and change into flesh and blood with increasing tenderness and passion throughout.”

“Thank you for the opportunity to review the fascinating work you have done to bring ‘Questing for Uberjoy’ to fruition. As someone who successfully completed Peace Corps training (for Colombia before the drug lords took over) only to be drafted, I took a special interest in the plot of this book…. Well done! This book is engaging, interesting, and exciting, all at the same time. Readers will devour the story and tell their friends about it!”

“Questing for Uberjoy is, among other things, a great and adventurous journey that will engage readers, getting their hearts racing so they can’t wait to turn the page and find out what happens next. The novel has a terrific cast of characters that readers will unabashedly root for (even in their less than ‘perfect’ moments) as they move forward in their quests against evil and for undying love.”

“Questing for Uberjoy was a pleasure to read and review. The plot and characters are incredibly engaging, and the deeply detailed world brings the terrain and the quest to life, to say the least. More, the high-minded style and use of language serves to heighten the reader’s experience and truly convey the allegory and dramatization of the main scenes, the overarching philosophy, and the emotional drive behind the book. Behind the pseudonym Konrad Ventana is a skillful storyteller; his narrative voice is clear, confident, and distinctive, and the pacing is excellent. It is clear that he has honed his craft through years of writing.”

Konrad Ventana’s award-winning “Questing for Uberjoy” is now available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble; author’s website www.konradventana.com.
