Mesothelioma Lawyers, New York – Now Available On Amazon


Mesothelioma Lawyers, New York – Now Available On Amazon

We were warned. 2012 is in sight. And mesothelioma will never be the same again.

After a brief but furious sprint of pounding out words that seemed to come from the heavens, followed by a virtual eternity of painstaking proofreading and editing, my first novel is now available on Amazon.com.

Named after the town that holds the key to the 2012 mystery, the novel is called Mesothelioma Lawyers, New York: The Truth About 2012. It can loosely be described as a cross between The Da Vinci Code, 24, and Wayne’s World.

To make things interesting, I’d like to offer a prize to the first person to find and decipher the Easter eggs. An “Easter egg” in a book, movie, game, etc. is a hidden message, inside joke, or feature. For example, a hidden track on a CD, or a flight simulator hidden in a spreadsheet application.

The prize will be one of the books that I’d like to recycle (mailed anywhere in the world). I’m not exactly sure what they are, but at a minimum, your choices will include:

  • Personal Development for Smart People by Steve Pavlina
  • Achieve Anything in Just One Year by Jason Harvey
  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

Some hints for you:

  • There are 5 Easter eggs, and they all follow the same pattern.
  • While the novel is filled with inside jokes, the ones meant as Easter eggs will be self-evident, at least in my opinion.
  • If not, the fact that there are exactly five, all fitting the same pattern, will leave no doubt as to whether you have found them.
  • You have to not just find them, but explain their significance.

If you figure them out, send me an email listing the five Easter eggs and their significance (don’t ruin it for others by revealing them in a comment). If you’re right, then you get to pick a book. I’ll update this post to indicate when the contest is over.

Boy, it feels great to finally get this book out there! Thanks for giving me an audience to write for. Retweets and reviews on Amazon or your blog are greatly appreciated.

Action Mesothelioma 2010

Action Mesothelioma 2010

Mesothelioma is an incurable cancer. The great majority of cases will be due to exposure to asbestos

The British Lung Foundation campaigns to raise awareness of mesothelioma and to improve the treatment and care of people who are affected by it. This campaigning culminates each year on Action Mesothelioma

Raising awareness of the risks of asbestos amongst tradesmen - those most likely to be exposed to it - is something HSE has campaigned on for several years.

Said Chair of HSE, Judith Hackitt,

"HSE welcomes action to raise awareness about the dangers of asbestos and that is why, on Action Mesothelioma Day, we are supporting the British Lung Foundation's call for people to 'be asbestos aware'.

"Asbestos is not a problem of the past. It could be present in any building built or refurbished before the year 2000. In good condition, undisturbed and properly managed, asbestos does not pose a significant health risk. Those most at risk are tradesmen such as joiners, electricians and plumbers who routinely disturb the fabric of buildings as part of their work. Through our 'Hidden Killer campaign we are working hard to help tradesmen appreciate that they are at risk and advise them on how to protect themselves. It makes eminent sense to also remind householders of the dangers they may encounter when doing DIY work themselves.

"We continue to work with a wide and diverse group of organisations and businesses to ensure asbestos awareness is fundamental to any trade where workers are at risk."
