Download or read book NEPHILIM written by David Lucero and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Summary of Nephilim: Genesis By David Lucero The novel Nephilim: Genesis cannot be easily summarized. It’s a book about friendship, faith, destiny, and discovery. But it is so much more than that as well. Of course, there are main characters. Villains, heroes, supporting characters, those are the usual items found in a fiction book. There is a plot, of course, and tons of inspirations. But to break down the novel would not do it justice. To say that Alexander Luciano is the main character is just putting him into a role that he doesn’t fit easily into. A square peg in a round hole, so to speak. The Nephilim themselves are not easily described either. If you take the literal translations of them from the Old Testament, then they were giants born of mortal women who had been seduced by fallen angels. But they were briefly mentioned, almost impossible to spot if you’re not looking for them, and that leaves a vast amount of room for interpretation. I prefer to think of Nephilim as sons and daughters that, yes, were half-human/half-angels, but also much more than that. They were influential, giants not in the literal sense, but metaphorically, much as some people are “giants of industry.” These are not literally tall men or women, they are people that have shaped our commercial and financial institutions. They are individuals that have formed the basis of our society in such a way that we look up to them in reverence. So to say Nephilim are in that vein might be more accurate. They are “giants of destiny” if you will, leaders and warriors and thinkers. They are people that have walked with the gods and kept stride. They are idols and icons. Does that mean that I think Alexander Luciano is an icon? Yes, in a sense. He is what I wish I could be, not because he is almost supernatural, but because he has discovered his destiny and has embraced it with all his heart and soul. He is a shining example of what I would like to be. He is an angel, true, but he is still only a man. The novel Nephilim: Genesis was a long work in progress. I wrote several drafts, went through so many new characters and new plots that I can’t even remember all of them. It was crafted, not written, and I’m very proud of it. The characters in the book: Avatar, Sage, Epic, Arcadia, Magus, and Kheiron, are not just the characters I created for the book, they are characters that grew out of friendship, faith, and dedication. I didn’t write them, they came to life and I merely translated them onto the written page. Like so many stories in existence, there is sadness, happiness, pain, and joy in this novel. Some of it was my idea, some of it was not. And I don’t mean that I took other people’s ideas, but merely that the story became what it is because I was open to the possibility that this story was not entirely something I could create. I let the story go where it wanted to go, and I just tried to type fast enough to keep up. Alexander Luciano is a caring young man, but stubborn. He is a successful businessman. He is a son, a lover, a fighter. He is strong, brave, and a quick thinker. I am not any of these things entirely, but he is me. He is the idol I look up to. He is the “giant” in my storytelling. But all of the characters are important to me. Some of them were so easy to come up with, it was like a thunderbolt to my brain when I realized I was stupid for never thinking of them before. Some of them crept in and came to life and I never saw them coming. If and when you read the novel, I hope you find your own “giant” to look up to. Someone you wish you could be. It might not be Alexander Luciano, it might

Download or read book New Orleans Radio written by Dominic Massa and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From humble beginnings in a physics lab on the campus of Loyola University came the sounds of the first radio station in the lower Mississippi River Valley when WWL Radio signed on in 1922. The little station would grow into a national powerhouse, with its morning Dawnbusters show and nightly broadcasts from the Blue Room of the Roosevelt Hotel. The citys second oldest station, WSMB, with studios in the Maison Blanche Building, developed its own cast of favorites, including Nut and Jeff. Later, in the city known as the birthplace of jazz, radio played a key role in popularizing early rock and roll. Disc jockeys at leading stations WTIX and WNOE helped develop the Crescent City sound, along with local personalities with colorful names like Poppa Stoppa, Jack the Cat, and Dr. Daddy-O.

Download or read book Pigs at the Trough written by Arianna Huffington and published by Crown. This book was released on 2004-01-27 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who filled the trough? Who set the table at the banquet of greed? How has it been possible for corporate pigs to gorge themselves on grossly inflated pay packages and heaping helpings of stock options while the average American struggles to make do with their leftovers? Provocative political commentator Arianna Huffington yanks back the curtain on the unholy alliance of CEOs, politicians, lobbyists, and Wall Street bankers who have shown a brutal disregard for those in the office cubicles and on the factory floors. As she puts it: “The economic game is not supposed to be rigged like some shady ring toss on a carnival midway.” Yet it has been, allowing corporate crooks to bilk the public out of trillions of dollars, magically making our pensions and 401(k)s disappear and walking away with astronomical payouts and absurdly lavish perks-for-life. The media have put their fingers on pieces of the sordid puzzle, but Pigs at the Trough presents the whole ugly picture of what’s really going on for the first time—a blistering, wickedly witty portrait of exactly how and why the worst and the greediest are running American business and government into the ground. Tyco’s Dennis Kozlowski, Adelphia’s John Rigas, and the Three Horsemen of the Enron Apocalypse—Ken Lay, Jeff Skilling, and Andrew Fastow—are not just a few bad apples. They are manifestations of a megatrend in corporate leadership—the rise of a callous and avaricious mind-set that is wildly out of whack with the core values of the average American. WorldCom, Enron, Adelphia, Tyco, AOL, Xerox, Merrill Lynch, and the other scandals are only the tip of the tip of the corruption iceberg. Making the case that our public watchdogs have become little more than obedient lapdogs, unwilling to bite the corporate hand that feeds them, Arianna Huffington turns the spotlight on the tough reforms we must demand from Washington. We need, she argues, to go way beyond the lame Corporate Responsibility Act if we are to stop the voracious corporate predators from eating away at the very foundations of our democracy. Devastatingly funny and powerfully indicting, Pigs at the Trough is a rousing call to arms and a must-read for all those who are outraged by the scandalous state of corporate America.
