Dr. James Frank's journey is far from over. It is now in a season of continuation. Legacy is the impact one has had on people, organizations, or institutions that continues to benefit those entities in perpetuity. In the simplest terms, according to Webster's Dictionary, a legacy is "something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past." Whether the legacy is something material or intangible, it is passed on to subsequent generations for their benefit. Through Seasons of the Journey, the author has well documented the legacies Dr. Frank transmitted to the world throughout his life - legacies which exemplify integrity, professionalism, educational excellence, hard work ethics, athletic endeavor, unselfishness, and family values. Dr. Frank held many prominent positions. His leadership skills and accomplishments were exemplary and indelible. He touched the lives of many. He was thoroughly recognized throughout his life for his impact. He had an impactful influence on many universities and organizations, two of which were Lincoln University and the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) where significant edifices will now bear his name. The executive leadership of both Lincoln University and the Southwestern Athletic Conference have chosen to further his legacy. Founders Hall on the Lincoln University campus was renamed Dr. James Frank Hall on April 21, 2023. The Southwestern Athletic Conference national headquarters building in Birmingham, Alabama, has been named in his honor. The official naming ceremony has been scheduled to take place on October 26, 2023. His name on these important and historical edifices cements his legacy and his significant impact on these two great entities.
Leadership isn't rocket science. Yet, there are more laws, theories, and rules on the subject than ever before. Anyone can be an extraordinary leader once they understand what it means to truly follow someone else.

Set in a time hundreds of thousands of years into the future, the world has reformed into a second Pangea and humans have evolved the ability to consciously manipulate energy (once known as magic). There is one continent, filled with magic and tech, and one Empire, the Empire of Amra. Amra is ruled over by the faceless (and mostly invisible) hand of the Malvilla. Regarded more as boogeymen or gods, the Malvilla are the shadow on the wall that makes the wheels turn. Enter in La'illa. After having committed an unpardonable crime at the age of fourteen, being burned and teched on her entire left side, and then sentenced to die in prison, she is given a second chance at life (though, not that she has much choice). By becoming one of the slaves of the Malvilla, she becomes someone They work Their will through. One of the njavahethen. Following her through her initiation into the ranks of the njavahethen, La'illa learns her place with both tech and magic. And again, as she meets Dja'heth and others, the relationships that will ultimately decide the fate of Amra. Having to balance all she is, all she believes in, and all she comes to fight for isn't easy. In fact, it's anything other than easy to fight against the Malvilla, Those That Own. But La'illa refuses to give in.

Hay un niño que mira, hombres dignos pero sin agallas, parejas en armas, emigrantes sin retorno posible. Hay en París una buhardilla helada pero feliz, y calor en un teatro esperpéntico.En Montevideo hay copas de aguardiente, un viejo boxeador, un hospital y un aparato registrando el sonido del tiempo. En Ginebra acechan basureros pulcros y sábanas salpicadas de sangre.Hay mujeres rotas. También mujeres enteras y enteramente soñadas. Hay niñas que durante la guerra salvan la vida ypierden su infancia en un escondite.Hay palabras en yidis, en francés, en la jerga de los puertos. Y una escritura ligera al rescate de lo inacabado, de lo imperfecto, de lo roto. Un libro que todo lo devuelve limpio, en colores e íntegro, sin ocultar las cicatrices.

Fiction often mirrors truth. And you get just as close as you want to be to non-fiction in this fast-paced novel that turned the turmoil surrounding the U.S. Bobsled Federation into shocking international intrigue. The pace is faster than a sled on ice and it races from Lake Placid, New York to the burrow of the CIA at Langley, Virginia to rebelling Latvia and its ancient rift with the Soviet Union during the final days of the Cold War. It's scary enough to set even a seasoned CIA agent's hair on end. Cold War history was made in Riga, Latvia when the Soviet Minister of Sports made an astonishing statement at a press conference he and Miller held to announce that the Soviet Bobsled Team would visit Lake Placid to take part in the 10th anniversary of the 1980 Olympic Games. When asked: Who invited the Americans to the Soviet Union, the Minister of Sports responded: I did not invite the Americans. The Latvian Socialist State debated for three months about how to handle the invitation and they made the decision to invite the Americans without first seeking permission from Moscow. It is believed that this was the first public statement made by a Soviet Official that Latvia would no longer be under Moscow's rule! The Minister of Sports was later executed for crimes against the Soviet government. A novel that is difficult to put down once you begin to read!
Frog Joy is a collection of free verse and micro poems that point to the beauty in everyday moments. Beth Gulley is making her own world without a fence. Sometimes readers join her as she stains her fingers on low hanging mulberries. Other times the readers chase her along the trail and try to escape the rising flood waters. Underneath it all, a chorus of frog calls, like fingers running along the edge of a comb, echo in the damp night.Few brief, gem-like poetic meditations shine like Beth's. Part diary entry, part koan or prayer, these new poems sparkle with wit and wisdom. I treasure them. You will too. -Kevin Rabas, Past Poet Laureate of Kansas (2017-2019), Improvise
