Prophecy expert and lecturer Terry James is the general editor of RaptureReady.com, the #1 prophecy website on the Internet. Founded in 1989, the website receives more than 8 million visitors each month and has more than 4,000 active members. One of the site's main features is the Rapture Index, a constantly updating gauge that measures end-time issues and events in the news. Any event that has biblically prophetic relevance is assigned a ranking. The combined rankings serve as an end-times speedometer, signaling the speed at which the world is moving toward Armageddon. The index has been featured by Time Magazine, The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times, The Rolling Stone, The Economist, Christianity Today, CNN, the BBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and many others. The "rapture" is an event in Christian eschatology (the study of the end times) in which it is believed that all born-again Christians will be taken from earth into heaven at a specific moment by Jesus Christ, signaling the apocalypse. Its introduction and popularization in Christian belief with books such as the Left Behind series of novels, is relatively recent. The timing of when the rapture will take place is a key point often discussed and debated between denominations and individuals who accept the belief. James is a member of the PreTrib Research Center Study Group and believes that the rapture will occur prior to the seven-year tribulation described in the book of Revelation. The study group is founded by Dr. Tim LaHaye, coauthor of the Left Behind series. In addition to James' work as the editor of Rapture Ready, he is also a prolific author of prophecy-related books including his new book, The Nephilim Imperatives (Anomalos Publishing ISBN 9780978845360 2008) and Are You Rapture Ready? (Penguin, 2004). Other works include Foreshadows of Wrath and Redemption, Forewarning, and Foreshocks of Antichrist published by Harvest House, and Earth's Final Days, Raging Into the Apocalypse, The Triumphant Return of Christ and Storming Toward Armageddon published by New Leaf. In 1993, James lost his eyesight due to a degenerative retinal disease called retinitis pigmentosa. With the aid of Jobs Accessible Word System (JAWS), a voice synthesis program, he is able to write and use the Internet. Prior to losing his eyesight, James worked in the field of marketing and public relations for more than 25 years. James earned a B.A. in advertising design with a minor in political science from University of Arkansas at Little Rock. He and his wife Margaret continue to reside near Little Rock. - www.raptureready.com

Today, we are facing despots in government, who, under the blanket of national security, are prosecuting "civilians" before a series of military tribunals. Contrary to military tradition, the U.S, Coast Guard is succeeding it its excess by declaring itself to be a branch of military that can arrest, carry on detention, prosecute, adjudicate and even punish civilians. Lt. Eric Shine is a case in point. Eric Shine is being charged with..... "being depressed." The 46-year-old former Merchant Marine and whistleblower is being hauled in front of a military tribunal and charged with nothing more than a state of mind, with no allegations of misconduct or negligence in his actions. Lt. Shine, has been subjected to years of harassment and legal proceedings ever since he wrote his reports on malfeasance of government contractors working on a ship on which he was an officer. Besides losing both of his homes, he has been stripped of his office and has not had the benefit of legal representation owed to him. Lt. Eric Shine's background reads as a packet of pedigrees: his father and brother attended West Point, he himself graduated with honors from Kings Point, the sister academy to West Point and Annapolis where his uncle attended.

Prison Profiteers brings together a formidable array of lawyers, prisoners, journalists and advocates to provide a unique look at who, exactly, is benefiting from mass imprisonment. Prison Profiteers takes readers on an investigative journey behind the bars of our nation's prisons to the front lines of its mass incarceration crisis and into the realm of its financially motivated private investors. The United States, with just five percent of the world's population, is responsible for incarcerating an astounding twenty five percent of the world's inmates. Thanks to thirty years of mass incarceration, the number of people in state and federal penitentiaries has dramatically increased from an estimated 300,000 to 2.3 million. The numbers are shocking, yet while much research has focused on the social issues that surround incarceration in the U.S., until now, little attention has been given to the individuals and commercial enterprises that profit from prisons and their related services. Prison Profiteers approaches the subject from a unique angle-not who is being harmed by current policies of mass imprisonment but rather who benefits from such policies. From investment banks that issue bonds for prison construction, to the companies that staff and manage prisons, and the organizations that provide medical care, we learn how they benefit and how much they profit. Paul Wright is the founder and editor of Prison Legal News, an independent monthly magazine that reports on the criminal justice system. He co-edited Prison Nature with Tara Herivel and The Celling of America with Daniel Burton-Rose. He is a 2005 Petra Foundation Fellow and the 2007 recipient of the James Madison Award from the Washington Coalition for Open Government.

A self-described 'crackpot historian,' for two decades Adam Gorightly's articles have appeared in nearly every 'zine, underground magazine, counter-cultural publication, and conspiratorial website imaginable. Bringing a mischievous sense of Prankster-Discordianism to the zany world of fringe culture, once Gorightly connects his dots, readers are plunged into alternative universes which forever alter their view of 'reality.' His landmark work, The Shadow Over Santa Susana: Black Magic, Mind Control and the Manson Family Mythos is by far the best ever compiled on the Tate-Labianca murders. Far from being portrayed as prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi's caricatured bogeyman, Gorightly paints a broader picture of Manson in relation to Hollywood porn films, Anton LaVey's Satanism, Scientology and the Process Church, MK-ULTRA, designer drugs, and the true Beatles-Helter Skelter story.
