John falls in love with Peggy the moment he meets her on New Year's Eve. Nine years of marriage and two children later, nothing has changed. The beautiful Irish girl with the thick, black shining hair and sparkling, brilliant blue eyes is still the center of his world.But when Peggy tells him one Saturday night in July that she can't go sailing because she's too tired to move, John's concerned. When Peggy is diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia later that week, he's terrified. And when she dies seventeen days later, he's shattered, his world destroyed.So why then just days after Peggy's death does John call Nancy, the young woman who once lived next door, and ask her out to dinner? Why does Nancy say yes? And what happens when people ignore the rules of propriety and allow themselves to be drawn into a relationship they know will shock and offend family and friends? What price do they pay for breaking one of society's most time-honored rules of behavior? Rules Get Broken deals with love lost, love found, and the collateral damage along the way and demonstrates what love is...and isn't. John Herbert's simple, elemental style, unique insight, and rare sensitivity make Rules Get Broken an unforgettable love story and a must-read.

It's About Time presents an introduction to theoretical physics as well as challenges to some of the concepts put forward by theoretical physicists of our time. These scientists have presented such concepts in countless public lectures, highlights of which are compiled here along with a variety of historical data, such as the history of earth time. Also included are short biographies of physicists who have contributed significantly to our knowledge base.To help foster understanding of the related astronomical matters, It's About Time includes technical information relating to Newton and Kepler's laws. Technical discussions are appended to the end of each relevant chapter. Furthermore, it offers a credible and significant challenge to Einstein's theories and to the current thinking on time dilation. Finally, the study outlines some procedural guidelines for young physicists and suggests how academic institutions can become custodians of a central depository of reference data, facilitating future physicists into more efficient and fruitful endeavors. This study offers no challenge to mathematics, which is a pure and exact science. When a physicist is able to have the mathematics represent natural phenomena, then mathematics becomes a necessary tool for our simplified understanding of nature. Eventually all of nature will be reduced to mathematical terms. The challenge presented here is to theoretical mathematics with no proven relationship to natural phenomena.
