Download or read book South of South Beach written by Keith G. Laufenberg and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-07-05 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South of South Beach takes the reader back in time to the 60's and 70's during a time when South Beach was nothing like the glitzy, Art-Deco district it is today but more of a dilapidated, run-down section of real estate where Chris Dundee runs the 5th Street Gym and many transplanted prizefighters, Muhammad Ali among them, roam the streets looking for "something" to while away the hours while they prepare their bodies for the task of fighting another highly-trained boxer who wants to beat their brains out, even as they wish to do much the same to them. The girls stroll parts of South Beach in bikinis and the Beatles have even visited the 5th Street Gym recently; the beat generation is giving way to the hippie, free-love generation so come back in time and visit what today is one of the world's great vacation centers but, at this time during the 1960's was more of a slum or a ghetto --- to avoid at your own peril, especially a small stretch of beach just south of South Beach.

Download or read book A Place in the Sun written by Donald Kennedy and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An autobiography from an American scientist, President Carter’s Food and Drug Administration Commissioner, and the eighth president of Stanford University. More than personal memoir, Donald Kennedy's story is not only a chronicle of watershed years in the history of Stanford University, but also a reflection on academia's perennial concerns. The story builds from his childhood and family in New England through mentors at Harvard to reflections on his early years at Stanford. What is the scope of a teacher's responsibilities? What is the proper balance between research and teaching? How far can a professor of literature stretch activism and free speech before losing tenure? How can the University look so rich and feel so poor? While biology department head, Kennedy founded Human Biology, Stanford's first interdisciplinary program. As president, issues of ethnic diversity, student activism, multicultural curricula, patent rights, divestment in South Africa, a student hostage crisis, and a major earthquake colored his pivotal years at Stanford. At the heart of Kennedy's journey has been the belief that one must give back to society as mentor, inspiring his students; as commissioner of the FDA, wrestling with issues of freedom and regulation; as editor of Science, confronting the clash of science and politics. Throughout the book, sidebar recollections from students, friends, and colleagues reflect on his caring encouragement and core humanity, his love of teaching, and a life profoundly committed to science and public service.

As Hyper watches all of his teammates find women and start families, he realizes a part of him is still missing. Despite his best efforts, he can't seem to get past the quirky, paranoid friend of Sam that keeps invading his thoughts.

He'll need her help to stop further attacks on his team, and she'll need him to stay alive.
Download or read book Ghost Ranch written by Lesley Poling-Kempes and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, Ghost Ranch has attracted people of enormous energy and creativity to the high desert of northern New Mexico. Occupying twenty-two thousand acres of the Piedra Lumbre basin, this fabled place was the love of artist Georgia O’Keeffe’s life, and her depictions of the landscape catapulted Ghost Ranch to international recognition. Building on the history of the Abiquiu region that she told in Valley of Shining Stone, Ghost Ranch historian Lesley Poling-Kempes now unfolds the story of this celebrated retreat. She traces its transformation from el Rancho de los Brujos, a hideout for legendary outlaws, to a renowned cultural mecca and one of the Southwest’s premier conference centers. First a dude ranch, Ghost Ranch became a magical sanctuary where the veil between heaven and earth seemed almost transparent. Focusing on those who visited from the 1920s and ’30s until the 1990s, Poling-Kempes tells how O’Keeffe and others—from Boston Brahmin Carol Bishop Stanley to paleontologist Edwin H. Colbert, Los Alamos physicists to movie stars—created a unique community that evolved into the institution that is Ghost Ranch today. For this book, Poling-Kempes has drawn on information not available when Valley of Shining Stone was written. The biography of Juan de Dios Gallegos has been enhanced and definitively corrected. The Robert Wood Johnson (of Johnson & Johnson) years at Ghost Ranch are recounted with reminiscences from family members. And the memories of David McAlpin Jr. shed light on how the Princeton circle that included the Packs, the Johnson brothers, the Rockefellers, and the McAlpins ended up as summer neighbors on the high desert of New Mexico. After Arthur Pack’s gift of the ranch to the Presbyterian Church in 1955, Ghost Ranch became a spiritual home for thousands of people still awestruck by the landscape that O’Keeffe so lovingly committed to canvas; yet the care taken to protect Ghost Ranch’s land and character has preserved its sense of intimacy. By relating its remarkable story, Poling-Kempes invites all visitors to better appreciate its place as an honored wilderness—and to help safeguard its future.
