HEADLINE: Pure Power Comes in Unexpected Packages -- Teenage Wonder Utilizes Her Unique Abilities to Save Ancient Culture in New Book

Eds. Var. Note: The author of this exciting series appears to be of the sort that makes use of most of the minutes of the day, and night. Some of us are still trying to figure out a way to muster the willpower to fill out an address book. We don't really care about spiritual evolvement and guess we could do neuro linguistics if we decided we wanted to.

Barnes grew up on horse and cattle ranches in Texas and Mexico. She is the author of two additional books in this series, "Kelly Karate Encounters the Moon Princess" and "Kelly Karate Discovers the Ice Princess," as well as a produced playwright and screenplay writer. A trained public speaker, she gives lectures and workshops on creative writing, spiritual evolvement and emotional healing. She is certified in neuro linguistic programming, and she works with children and young adults as a hypnotherapist. She also volunteers her services in homeless centers and for teens in crisis. Barnes divides her time living in Texas, Oklahoma and Australia. She is currently working on her next book, "Kelly Karate In Search of the Aborigine Priestess."

SEMI SUBMERSIBLE DRILLING

BEST WAY TO START THE WEEK

Note from Eds Var: Reading this headline gave us those kinds of thoughts. We give you the headline only, but know that this rig will be the sixth generation and will be delivered Nov. 2008. We hope to have lost some weight by then.
