Download or read book Olivofonics written by Francis A. Olivo and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-02 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olivofonics (Oh-Lee-Vo-Fawn-Ecks) Small Business Management & Philosophy for Beginners. Small business management is nothing more than philosophies. It covers business ethics, business reality, marketing philosophies, logic, and much more. As individuals, the only thing that we own is our beliefs. If you believe something to be true, you consider it to be your knowledge. If, however, you don't believe something to be true, you have very little knowledge of it. So knowledge is power, but only if you believe it to be true. If one side of the coin says, "Man has no guarantees in life," then it's safe to assume that the opposite side of the coin guarantees man one thing, "No individual can live forever." Yet, people flip the coin every day. Even though I cannot offer you any guarantees, we already have our guarantee. Let me say that if you believe the philosophies in this book, then my philosophies will become your knowledge. If, however, you don't believe the philosophies in this book, you'll have very little knowledge of small business management. Regards, Frank.

Download or read book Bobke II written by Roll Bob and published by VeloPress. This book was released on 2014-06-18 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Roll is a former Tour de France racer, well-known scribe, and race announcer, and he's back to cause a ruckus! Bobke II (correctly pronounced "BOOB-kuh") revisits all of the original journals of Roll's wild rides and crazy tales about cycling's uncensored side. When Bobke retired from competition, his pen continued the crazed poetic commentary, and Roll's newest additions cover both topics held reverent in cycling and also those that are hardly related to the sport. Bobke tips his cap to the classic riders and races, takes us on a grueling week of training with Lance Armstrong, tells the sport as he sees it, and entertains us with plenty of ditties and rants in between. It's a zany, often absurd, yet compelling commotion.

Download or read book The Lone Wolf Murders written by Wayne Littrell and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lone wolf biker is faced with an impossible dilemma when he witnesses the murder of a local, prominent political figure by a pair of assassins he knows are bikers. These cold, ruthless, serial killers are bikers that even one-percenters shun. John Trotter, aka Wolf, is an experienced, daily rider torn between his love of family, friends, and the freedom of the road. The biker code he lives by is challenged by his conscience to do the right thing. He calls on his biker brothers for assistance as other bikers start to die in mysterious accidents. The intensity is turned up when Wolf is forced on a long ride to hell and back. The characters, scenes, routes, and rallies are based on actual bikers, places, and events that took place when the author rode the story, minus the murders. The story was guided by coincidence, karma, and totems to the scenes described. Biker humor, chases, crashes, and tips are woven into the story. The characters are believable, everyday bikers from all walks of life, unlike the image frequently portrayed to the public. The journey Wolf and his biker brothers take is enriched by rides to rallies and locations across the southeastern U.S. taking routes frequented by bikers. The book can be used as a guide for rides to fully experience the story while exploring the area. Bikers and non-bikers alike will gain understanding of the call of freedom and its relationship to the motorcycle culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet the author, Monty Van Horn. He is just an ordinary person. He is a son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, combat veteran, and a pastor. He is also a biker, hunter, mechanic, outdoorsman, your neighbor, a friend, and again, just an ordinary person. Monty spent 12 years in the Army and felt called to leave the military to pursue ordination as a pastor so he could return to the military as a chaplain. While those doors did not open, God did open other doors that guided him to become an ordained inter-denominational minister. The way God did that was unusual to say the least. The story is in the book. After being obedient to God and becoming ordained by God himself (you will have to read the story) Monty was still just a lump of clay on the table. God calls Monty into being a pastor of a church! I know right? God makes it clear that he wants Monty inside the church and no longer preaching just in the highways and byways! You have just got to read the story, it is amazing! So, don’t just open the front page and check the water with your feet! Dive in and get submerged immediately! If you are looking for edification, encouragement, confirmation, or just want an easy to read book, you have found it. Enjoy and may God touch you and guide you as you travel through time with Monty. Hang on as you ride back into the past then back again and what a ride it is!

I’ve been a philosopher for years and I’m here to tell you it makes a difference in my life. In How to Think Like a Philosopher, I’m going to look at the questions that philosophy tries to examine. In doing so I hope to help people who are thinking about taking philosophy in college get a better idea of what philosophical or critical thinking is. By the same token, it is my hope that if you a person who is unsure of what they want or how to get it, Olivononics Two: How to Think Like a Philosopher will help. Philosophy is like a breath of fresh air that blows away the haze that sometimes blurs our vision. Studying philosophy opens a new door and new possibilities for people to examine. After all, it’s been said, “Success is getting what you want, but happiness is wanting what you get.”
Download or read book Long Way Round written by Ewan McGregor and published by Sphere. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A highly readable and spiritually uplifting book about a dream come true' Wanderlust 'Touching and memorable ... one for armchair travellers and bike freaks' Daily Mail From London to New York, Ewan and Charley chased their shadows through Europe, the Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Russia, across the Pacific to Alaska, then down through Canada and America. But as the miles slipped beneath the tyres of their big BMWs, their troubles started. Exhaustion, injury and accidents tested their strength. Treacherous roads, unpredictable weather and turbulent politics challenged their stamina. They were chased by paparazzi in Kazakhstan, courted by men with very large guns in the Ukraine, hassled by the police, and given bulls' testicles for supper by Mongolian nomads. And yet despite all these obstacles they managed to ride more than twenty thousand miles in four months, changing their lives forever in the process. As they travelled they documented their trip, taking photographs, and writing diaries by the campfire. Long Way Round is the result of their adventures - a fascinating, frank and highly entertaining travel book about two friends riding round the world together and, against all the odds, realising their dream.
Download or read book Easy Rider written by Steven Bingen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1969 a man walked upon the moon, the Woodstock music festival was held in upstate New York, Richard Nixon was sworn in as the president of the United States, the Beatles made their last public appearance, as did, after a fashion, Judy Garland, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Boris Karloff, Joseph P. Kennedy, and Jack Kerouac, all of whom passed away that year. Something else passed away that year as well. In early July, just days before the moon landing, a low-budget exploitation movie, EasyRider, was released. It’s astonishing and wholly unexpected success almost single-handedly destroyed the Hollywood studio system which had been controlling the entertainment industry for half a century. Its success would ultimately change the way movies would be made, and who made them, as well as how those movies looked and sounded, and which audiences those movies would be made for. Additionally, the film’s innovative techniques; including extensive location shooting, unexplained editing juxtapositions, improvised dialogue, and innovative use of popular music, would change the vocabulary and language of cinema forever. Easy Rider: 50 Years of Looking for America will tell the story of Easy Rider on the fiftieth anniversary of its explosive release. Through published interviews, previously undiscovered archival materials, and new reflections by the participants, the whole story of Hollywood’s first true counterculture movie will be revealed for the first time ever.

So, when she spies a bag full of money amongst the wreckage of a fiery car accident, she knows she can't just let it be. Inside is a bounty better than she could have dreamed—just shy of $300,000 in neatly stacked hundreds and fifties. Enough to pay off her debts, give her mother the care she deserves, and maybe even help out a few of her friends. But, of course, the missing briefcase didn't go unnoticed by its original owner, Travis Clay—a ruthless dealer who'll stop at nothing to get back what's his. Joette is way out of her depth, but can't seem to stop herself from participating in this cat-and-mouse chase. But can she beat Travis at his own game?
