Download or read book The Fiddler in the Subway written by Gene Weingarten and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GENE WEINGARTEN IS THE O. HENRY OF AMERICAN JOURNALISM Simply the best storyteller around, Weingarten describes the world as you think it is before revealing how it actually is—in narratives that are by turns hilarious, heartwarming, and provocative, but always memorable. Millions of people know the title piece about violinist Joshua Bell, which originally began as a stunt: What would happen if you put a world-class musician outside a Washington, D.C., subway station to play for spare change? Would anyone even notice? The answer was no. Weingarten’s story went viral, becoming a widely referenced lesson about life lived too quickly. Other classic stories—the one about “The Great Zucchini,” a wildly popular but personally flawed children’s entertainer; the search for the official “Armpit of America”; a profile of the typical American nonvoter—all of them reveal as much about their readers as they do their subjects.

Book excerpt: "Deserves a spot next to Fast Food Nation and To Kill a Mockingbird in America’s high school curriculums. To say it may save lives is self-evident.” —New York Times Book Review (Editor's Choice) NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: San Francisco Chronicle, Chrisitian Science Monitor, Kirkus, Winnipeg Free Press One of the decade's most original and masterfully reported books, A Deadly Wandering by Pulitzer Prize–winning New York Times journalist Matt Richtel interweaves the cutting-edge science of attention with the tensely plotted story of a mysterious car accident and its aftermath to answer some of the defining questions of our time: What is technology doing to us? Can our minds keep up with the pace of change? How can we find balance? On the last day of summer, an ordinary Utah college student named Reggie Shaw fatally struck two rocket scientists while texting and driving along a majestic stretch of highway bordering the Rocky Mountains. A Deadly Wandering follows Reggie from the moment of the tragedy, through the police investigation, the state's groundbreaking prosecution, and ultimately, Reggie's wrenching admission of responsibility. Richtel parallels Reggie's journey with leading-edge scientific findings on the impact technology has on our brains, showing how these devices play to our deepest social instincts. A propulsive read filled with surprising scientific detail, riveting narrative tension, and rare emotional depth, A Deadly Wandering is a book that can change—and save—lives.
Download or read book Fatal Distractions written by Gretchel Dixon and published by Gdm Heart2heart. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During our lifetime we will encounter some hardships, disappointments, trials, victories and "why me" moments. Simply put, life is full of ups and downs. Have you ever wondered why certain things happened a certain way? Think about it, when you really step back, wipe your eyes, and take deep breathe; You will realize it was just a distraction that was meant to be fatal. Fatal Distractions was written to encourage, inform, and assist those who read it that have encountered set-backs, misfortune, disappointments or hard trials (etc.) but refuse to give-up or throw in the towel! Webster defines distraction as "something that diverts your attention or prevents concentration" and fatal as "causing destruction, misfortune, ruin, or failure." However, the bible reminds us in John 10:10 that " the thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. KJV" We can also be encouraged knowing what the scriptures teaches us in Romans 8:37 "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us" KJV. And most importantly you can make it personal and say with bold confidence " I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. "Philippians 4:13 KJV. No more fatal distractions!

Book excerpt: What Does God Really Want from You? It’s easy to get confused about how to please God. One Bible teacher details a long list of the commands you should be keeping. The next teacher says only grace matters. Who is right? Centuries ago, in answer to this question, Jesus simplified all the rules and regulations of the Law into just two great commands: love God and love people. Loving God and Others looks at how these two commands define the heart of Christian faith. As you rest in the certain knowledge of what God calls you to, you will be challenged to live these commands out—and discover how obeying Jesus’ simple commands will transform not only your life but also the lives of those around you.
