"Spiritual Sparks for Baby Boomers™" is my weekly On-Line Syndicated Column fashioned after my weekly Newspaper Column called, "Fabulous after Fifty™", that has been going strong now for 15 years, and still continues to grow every week - It is printed in the Sand Mountain Reporter of Albertville, Alabama every Thursday. The first Column I wrote started out as "Lace Over Steel". I would like to "thank" the Sand Mountain Reporter, especially Ben Shurett, Cliff and Charlotte, for their support and help over the past, and into the future, as our horizons grow and expand into new arenas as I continue to write my weekly column, "Fabulous after Fifty™"...

“Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” (Isaiah 46:4)
"Based on the numbers from the U.S. Census Bureau, there are more Boomers born from 1956 through 1964 than born from 1946 through 1955. Our back-of-the-envelope calculation indicates that yesterday, August 15, 2007, was the day the 39,000,000th (out of 78 million) Boomer turned 50. So today there are officially more Boomers over the age of 50 than under"... Matt Thornhill & John Martin - The Boomer Project

Want to go on a BookTour ?.
|
| |
BookTour.com was founded in late 2006 by three authors who believe that technology can transform how authors find receptive groups of readers - Chris Anderson, Chairman, is the Editor-in-Chief of Wired Magazine and Author of The Long Tail (Hyperion, 2006); Kevin Smokler, Chief Evangelist and Community Director, is the Editor of Bookmark Now (Basic, 2005) and Creator of the Virtual Book Tour, and Adam Goldstein, Chief Technology Officer, is the Author of several volumes of the Missing Manual computer book series and a sophomore at MIT. We're a free online service that connects authors and potential audiences of all sorts, from book groups to civic organizations, from bookstores to corporate events. Authors create their own page (biography, books, tour dates and availability) and any group looking for speakers can find them and contact them directly to arrange for an appearance. Relevant information for both authors and venues can be added in minutes through a simple fill-in-the-blanks interface. Connecting authors with potential audiences then becomes as easy as searching (by geography, book titles, subject, dates of availability) and sending an email. For authors, BookTour.com serves as a one-stop tool for book promotion, allowing authors at all levels of their careers to locate receptive live audiences. For readers and audiences, BookTour.com makes finding when a favorite author is coming to your town as easy as checking the weather. BookTour is based in San Francisco, the city that buys more books (and wine) per capita than any in America.

An Amazing Christian Duo
Christian Artist Duo - "The Olivers"... Scott is from Drexel, North Carolina and Tara grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii. They met in Hollywood, CA and immediately began writing, recording and performing music together. Scott is a graduate of GIT in Hollywood, CA. Tara has performed with various musical acts in Japan, Australia, and even Kwajalein, which is part of the Marshall Islands, as part of a USO Tour. Tara began with singing in night clubs and piano bars in Honolulu and moved to California to pursue music. Tara is a vocalist, lyricist, and also writes poetry and has been published in the Library of Congress - Anthology of Christian Poetry. They collaborated on original projects and their original score, “Under the Moon”, was used as the title song for a play written by Lacy Gardner in the SOHO District of North Hollywood. Scott is a Sound Contractor and Tara is currently serving on the Board of Directors for HomeBound Meals in Hendersonville, Tennessee.
They are currently working on their Debut CD - "Change", which is due to be completed by January 2008. The theme of the CD is simply songs that speak of our constant need to depend on Jesus to be our strength in all the areas of our life. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life - and any other pursuits are meaningless. The songs on this CD speak of our personal testimonies and they are mostly upbeat and positive. This CD will include electric and acoustic versions of the songs - as when we perform live, it's usually just the two of us. Scott on guitar and background vocals and Tara on lead vocals. All songs are written, recorded and produced by ourselves.

The Zac Browser for Autistic Children
There's a new place on the web designed specifically for children with autism and autism spectrum disorders. Zac browser for autistic children is a hot spot where kids with autism can independently surf the web and interact. Zac browser even has a forum where parents and caregivers can stay connected and find links to relevant websites. John LeSieur, President and CEO of People CD, Inc. is in the software business, so he took particular interest when computers seemed mostly useless to his 6-year-old grandson, Zackary. The boy has autism, and the whirlwind of options presented by PCs so confounded him that he threw the mouse in frustration.
We have created ZAC Browser out of a deeply felt need of our own. In 2002 we were blessed with a beautiful grandson, Zackary. At an early age Zackary began displaying classic signs of a pervasive development disorder (PDD) and was diagnosed as severely autistic in 2005. We have the deepest love for our daughter and grandson and it is out of this heartfelt emotion that we used our talent to tailor a web browser specifically for Zackary and children facing similar development disorders of the brain.
We are the creators of Kidz CD - a wonderful Internet browser for children of all ages. We provide a safe, age appropriate place for kids to "surf" the Internet in their own specially designed world - where fun, educational and entertaining sites are available and they are fully protected in the secure Kidz CD zone.
In our first release of Kidz CD we were amazed that our grandson Zackary was able to play freely within the browser. His mother continually told us how Kidz CD tremendously helped to calm Zackary and how his use of Kidz CD made him much less violent in his interactions with others and with objects - a HUGE triumph for her everyday! It was like a fantastic playground for Zackary - it freed his mind and allowed him to relate and interact successfully without the frustrating limitation of speech and social acceptance.
When this amazing door opened to us - to our family- it was obvious that this fantastic playground of Zackary's was meant to be shared with the world - so on behalf of our family and especially Zackary "Welcome to Zackary's Playground! - ZAC Browser". Our hope is that your family will experience the same peace and freedom that our family now enjoys!
