Algonquin, IL (PRWEB) October 5, 2005

Eli Manning finally had a breakout game, and naturally, some receiver had to tag along. This week, Plaxico Burress rode the hot hand of Eli Manning and recorded a surprising 10 receptions for 204 yards with 2 touchdowns in a win over the St. Louis Rams. Not too bad for a player in Coach Tom Caughlin?s doghouse. While Manning is coming into his own, the jury is still out on Burress, as he has continuously underachieved since his early days in Pittsburgh. ?He is far to inconsistent to count on week in and week out?, says Todd Lokken, President of Strategic Fantasy Football.

The second big surprise of the week was Joey Galloway from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Galloway, a former star with the Seattle Seahawks, had 7 catches for 166 yards and a touchdown in the Bucs win over the Detroit Lions. This year, Tampa seems to be back on the road to the playoffs, and Galloway is a key factor in the Buc resurgence.

Next up is Anquan Boldin, who finally got on track (along with the rest of the Arizona Cardinals) with 8 catches, 116 yards, and 1 touchdown in a 31-14 pasting of the San Francisco 49ers. Lokken says, ?if the Cardinals get their act together, they can still be a factor in the playoff picture this year?.

On the flip side, there were also players who scored surprisingly low points this week, starting with Bryan Westbrook of the Philadelphia Eagles, After a huge game in week 3, Westbrook had only 15 yards rushing and 33 yards receiving while the Eagles destroyed the Kansas City defense. Finally, the last disappointing surprise of the week was Rod Smith of the Denver Broncos, who caught only 4 balls for 33 yards in the Denver victory.

He claims to have over one hundred moves, and has even given them colorful names like his most famous, “Boomerang”, “The Hypnotizer” and the “Slow MO Cross”, where he hits you with fast crossovers and then all of a sudden his whole body slows to a crawl. Phillip Champion currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia.

Tampa, FL (PRWEB) June 7, 2007

A new book by renowned investment innovator Preston Ely is teaching investors how to profit in an otherwise slow year. “Flip Your Way To Financial Freedom” shows both veteran and aspiring investors how to earn big returns when most other investment strategies are stagnant.

“There’s no question about it, 2007 has been a terrible year for most real estate professionals. My methods have repeatedly proven themselves to be winners even in this lackluster environment. The demand for this information has been staggering,” Ely said.

Until recently, Ely’s students paid $ 5,000 to learn his investing secrets. Now, with the publication of Ely’s new book, his most important strategies are now available to the public for the first time.

Ely starts by telling readers what kind of investors are making impressing money this year. He then proceeds to illustrate in detail how to put the popular “Rich Dad Poor Dad” philosophy into action. “Kiyosaki vaguely tells you what to do in the book. I give investors the step-by-step instructions they need to make these powerful ideas earn for them,” Ely said.

Among Ely’s most notable accomplishments is his ability to help average people earn well above average money in a very short period of time. “I taught my strategies to NFL coach Dave Durrell of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who then turned around and earned $ 45,000 in just 45 days,” Ely said.

“Flip Your Way To Financial Freedom” focuses on giving readers the motivation they need to see their dreams to fruition. “On average only about 2 in 10 of my students earn the kind of money they’re capable off. That’s because most people give up when they realize the hurdles that stand in their way. My book gives everyone the same motivation the lucky, wealthy 20 percent posses,” Ely said.

The book carefully explains the secrets to wholesaling real estate. Readers don’t need money, credit, or experience to make the plan work. “And you don’t have to risk your own money to invest. That’s a critical point. In the past only the wealthy could generate big money, but now anyone can get into the game without sacrificing their savings or home,” Ely said.

“Flip Your Way To Financial Freedom” along with a free mini-course and complimentary newsletter are all available at http://www.learntowholesale.com.

Ipswich, Mass. (PRWEB) November 19, 2007

Twisted Justice, the follow-up to Patricia Gussin’s award-nominated debut, Shadow of Death, will be released by Oceanview Publishing on December 1, 2007. Twisted Justice (Oceanview Publishing, ISBN: 978-1-933515-08-3, $ 23.95) heralds the return of protagonist Laura Nelson.

While Gussin’s debut, Shadow of Deat, was set against the backdrop of the Detroit riots of 1967, Gussin, an acclaimed novelist who has practiced medicine and directed medical research in her role as worldwide vice president for a leading healthcare company, set her sights on an entirely new locale for Twisted Justice – Tampa, Florida.

According to Gussin, choosing Tampa as the setting was an easy choice: “The significance of setting this novel in Tampa is very personal. Tampa is the area that shaped my children’s early life and shaped my medical career.”

Although Gussin’s protagonist, Laura Nelson, is not autobiographical, the two do share some similarities. Gussin says that the setting, in many ways, helped her fully flesh out Laura’s character: “As an author writing about a surgeon with five children, it was very natural for me to reach back into my memories of Tampa to create the scenes in Twisted Justice. After medical school in Detroit, I moved with my four young children to the Tampa area where I was starting a residency at Tampa General Hospital. When I moved to Tampa, my children were ages 7, 4, 3 and 1. As a mother and a doctor, Tampa was where I learned to balance career and family. Having the advantage of being able to tap into that stage of my life helped me deepen the emotions of the characters and made the process of writing more natural. “

While Gussin, a Michigan native who divides her time between Longboat Key, Florida, and Amagansett, New York, could have easily chosen another setting for Twisted Justice, she says that Tampa was the only contender: “I never even considered setting the novel elsewhere. I have such fond memories of the area and my experiences there. When I finished my training at Tampa General, I moved to Dunedin to practice medicine at the Mease Clinic. Dunedin is a lovely town and I can’t think of a better clinical practice scenario for doctors or for patients than the Mease Clinic offered in the 1970’s. As for my kids, they owe their sports fanaticism to Dunedin Little League, the Cincinnati Reds spring training, then in Tampa, and of course the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reliving my experiences only made the writing process that much more enjoyable.”

Twisted Justice is a shocking tale of secrets, betrayal, and lives torn apart. From all appearances, Laura Nelson has it all – a fantastic career, five well-adjusted kids and a gorgeous prominent husband. But looks can be deceiving – and deceit can be deadly. A sexy, alluring, and provocative mystery, Twisted Justice delivers fiery hot action, pulse-pounding suspense, and a razor-sharp plot full of dangerous curves and tantalizing turns. Oceanview Publishing is an independent publisher based in Massachusetts. Twisted Justice will be available in better bookstores nationwide in December, 2007. Members of the news media wishing to request an advance review copy or an interview with Patricia Gussin, are asked to contact Maryglenn McCombs by phone – 615-297-9875 – or by email – maryglenn @ maryglenn.com
