Bringing an End to Hate and Prejudice -- the Avar Press Scholarship Challenge. Free Copies of "Xen" by D.J. Solomon, MD Available from the P
Wilmington NC. (PRWeb) March 1, 2007 -- Now that "Xen" is in its second printing, Avar Press has decided to distribute the remaining copies of the first edition with original cover, to the first American and Canadian high school juniors and seniors to request copies. This will be done at no charge. Why? "Xen's" message is too important to store in the stockroom.
The "Xen" literary scholarship competition, now in its second year for high school juniors and seniors, has begun to accept essays for its first, second and third place cash prizes and publication. The deadline for entries is May 15, 2007. Please refer to the Avar Press website, for complete competition information and to read last year's winning essays.
The end of hate and prejudice begins one person at a time, believes D.J. Solomon, M.D., the author of "Xen." People all over the world continue to take steps to this end. But much more needs to be done. "Xen" tells the story of one person's extraordinary plan to rid the world of xenophobia, mankind's fundamental flaw, the source of hatred and prejudice. "Xen" is contemporary Utopian fiction with an attitude. What would the world be like as a matriarchy, but without racism, conspicuous consumption and greed, and without the exploitation of anyone or any animal? It's a story within a story. Due to subject matter and some explicit language, "Xen" is not recommended for readers under the age of 16. However, it is the perfect book for a literary competition as last year's winning essays demonstrate.
To request a free copy, including shipping & handling, or to review the scholarship competition information, please follow the scholarship links on the Avar Press website. Supplies are limited of course and requests must be post marked before March 15, 2007.
About the author: D.J. Solomon is a Stanford M.D., Brandeis Phi Beta Kappa, and Westinghouse Science Talent Search Scholarship winner. He has a private practice in rural North Carolina. "Xen" is his first novel, second book, the first published in 1979 by W.B. Saunders, when he was 25. He lives with two dogs and has three children. He has several works in various stages of development, both fiction and non-fiction.

Finishing a Fast College Degree!
There really are few ways to compare a two-year education with a four-year education that would be fair to either degree program. The truth of the matter is that both are excellent for certain things while both also offer serious limitations. When it comes to pros and cons they both have their own set of both that make excellent food for thoughts.
What is EDUCATION?
"Education would be much more effective if its purpose was to ensure that by the time they leave school every boy and girl should know how much they do not know, and be imbued with a lifelong desire to know it" -Sir William HaleyWhat is considered an education for my child?Education, I believe, is the whole learning process of not only acquiring knowledge but, to a deeper level, for a person to discover more about himself as well as the world which he is living in. Thus, it is not so much about learning specific subject content such as Mathematics, Science, English or Moral Education per se but how we can apply this knowledge wisely in our daily lives.
