Download or read book Esther s Altruism written by Esther Decker Huling and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-03 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Mammy and Pappy would let me look through their Bible for pictures. In it were handkerchiefs, flowers and notes all neatly laid out under particular pages. I'm sure these had some very important meaning, if only for them. Best of all, Mammy's big Bible showed a big picture of a red devil. He had a pitchfork tail and a big laughing face. He really scared me, and the look on my face when I found his picture made Mammy laugh and giggle. When I looked over to Pappy he was laughing a bit, too. It was very disturbing for me to see that picture of the old devil! The next few times that I went down to Mammy's, I'd ask to see the ole' devil again and I would get scared all over. I can still see him today in my memory and hear my Mammy telling me if I wasn't good the old devil would get me.

Download or read book The 50 Year Dash written by Bob Greene and published by Main Street Books. This book was released on 1998-05-18 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 50 Year Dash is a wonderful book of reflections on everything that's part of life at fifty: looking at aches and pains as a growth industry, and seeing the constant onslaught of new pain relievers as a new version of the British invasion of rock groups in the 1960s; finding that the world is no longer sufficiently quiet, and that you're the one yelling "Turn that down!"; realizing you're older than James Bond ever was; hearing yourself say, "The fruit plate looks good," and meaning it; understanding that the one thing that seems to be going away from you the fastest is that first-time feeling--first job, first house, first kiss--and knowing that the best thing you can do for yourself is to find ways to keep finding those feelings again and again. Between now and the year 2014, seventy-seven million American men and women--most of the baby boom generation--will turn fifty. That's about ten thousand birthdays per day. The 50 Year Dash is the perfect book for every single one of them.
Download or read book Holden On To Family Roots written by Linda Holden Givens and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-05-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about HOLDEN on to your family history. It is not a typical type of book. It begins with the Great-grandfather and works it way down thru the children. This is a family history from the perspective of a granddaughter. Since 1992, I have been working on my family genealogy and talked about publishing my manuscript. I procrastinated and over the years I saw several books published that mentioned my family in them. Finally I decided to have my manuscript published so that those who were already familiar with my family could actually read short stories and some history about my family and not just focus on music as well as share the uniqueness of my family with anyone. Briefly, I come from a family of musicians: 1. Granddaughter of Oscar Holden - Patriarch of Seattle - http://www.amazon.com/Jackson-Street-After-Hours-Seattle/dp/0912365927/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1242151327&sr=8-1 2. Daughter of Dave L. Holden, Sr. - Musician around Seattle - http://historylink.org/index.cfm?DisplayPage=output.cfm&file_id=2562 3. Sister of David L. Holden, Jr. - Musician around Seattle (currently play in the band GruvBox) - http://www.gruvbox.com 4. Niece of Ron Holden - Hit song in 1960 called: ´Love you so´ - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Holden 5. Niece of Jimmy Holden - Musician around Seattle - http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=450105699 6. Sister of Darrelle Holden – Background singer for Tom Jones - http://tomjonesinternational.com/toms-music/behind-the-scenes/backup-singers 7. Cousin of MarJean Holden - http://marjeanholden.com There have been several books that have mentioned my family in them and on the front cover of ‘Jackson Street After Hours’ is my grandfather because he has been called: ´The Patriarch of Seattle´, the one that brought jazz to Seattle. The following are a few named books that mention my grandfather, father and uncle: 1. The Fortunes of Jelly Roll Morton, New Orleans Creole and ‘Inventor of jazz’, Alan Lomax 2. Dead Man Blues Jelly Roll Morton Way out West, Phil Pastras 3. The Lost History of Jazz in Canada (1914-1949) Such Melodious Racket, Mark Miller 4.

This book was released on 2020-08-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life every day is a dramatic process and it needs assessment of risks and benefits (consciously or subconsciously) every day. Somehow our health gets low priority till we get very sick. Crisis management may cost us 10x to 100x of our limited financial resources. If we keep aside 15% of our income each month for health (and only for health-related purposes), then continued good health is statistically almost guaranteed. If you need medical attention, then please consult with your family physician. Today in India, medicine is still crisis medicine (but not in US). Our health is our obligation. Our books present medical facts and day to day life facts. The purpose of these books is to give you insight into health
