Book excerpt: Sheriff's Sergeant Tom Parker has to get out of Los Angeles before he gets hurt on the job, or goes over the edge emotionally. He is approaching middle age, wondering if there isn't more to life than nightshifts, and is tired of ducking bullets and breaking up fights in gang territory. He wins millions of dollars gambling in Las Vegas and makes his way to the sun, surf and sand of Saipan in Micronesia. Tom buys an old dilapidated hotel, starts a Private Investigations agency, and is soon involved with a myriad of characters, some hilarious and others deadly, from Asia and the mainland. With his divorce final, he enjoys a series of ladies, but unexpectedly falls in love with his hotel manager, Cocina, a Filipina with three children. He and his Private Eye partner, Carlos, come in conflict with local officials and hoodlums, and soon the shooting starts. Tom vowed that he would never re-marry, or get back into police work, but he breaks both these resolutions after several months on the island. Even with the dark days of grief and hardship after several shootings, Tom never despairs. He is where he wants to be, enjoys the sunsets, windsurfing, making new friends, playing ukulele music, and drinking lo-calorie pina coladas... and finding new love.

Book excerpt: Movin' On Up takes a fun ride through the then-and-now of a great city and its ball club. The city and its team have cooked up a partnership as strong and as strange as scrapple and toast over the past 121 years. Since 1883, the Phillies have been on the move-at times slowly, many times glacially, and sometimes quickly. Movin' On Up layers the present on the past by revisiting the places the Fightin' Phils once called their new home. But Movin' On Up is really about people, past, and present-not only players, but others who help and helped Philly move on up to the fabulous sports town we know today. The journey rolls along humorous and poignant episodes, old and new, that have splashed Philly and its fan with the signature color that both fascinates and infuriates outsiders. As this new millennium dashes toward the midpoint of its first decade, Philly's Phillies have a new park, a new team, and a new attitude. Well, maybe the attitude isn't all that new, as you'll read-and ne
Download or read book Movin on and Beyond written by Betty Brown and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Movin’ on and Beyond By: Betty Brown Movin’ on and Beyond is an autobiography portraying an American girl born on the prairie in the middle of the United States to hardworking, untutored, steadfast parents and immigrant grandparents. It tells of her experiences growing up, marriage, raising a family, employment, divorce, remarriage, travels and sickness. Through her determination, integrity and courage, she became a strong-willed, independent thinker. Challenges only made her stronger, setbacks made her determined. Her strength comes from her father, personal endurance from her mother. This book is intended for family reading to educate young & old. Make your journey through life a courageous one, keeping focused. Honor events of those that came before us and those who come after us. I have heard it said, the road to success is not straight. There is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called faith and a driver called Jesus who leads you to a place called success. From the words of the hymn, “I Am Forever Who I Am” Some days seem long, though life is brief, Death is waiting like a thief. Vision fades, dreams go dry, We will on unseen things rely. Stories take up but a page, Yours goes on from age to age.

Download or read book The Pecking Order written by Dalton Conley and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-02-25 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The family is our haven, the place where we all start off on equal footing — or so we like to think. But if that’s the case, why do so many siblings often diverge widely in social status, wealth, and education? In this groundbreaking and meticulously researched book, acclaimed sociologist Dalton Conley shatters our notions of how our childhoods affect us, and why we become who we are. Economic and social inequality among adult siblings is not the exception, Conley asserts, but the norm: over half of all inequality is within families, not between them. And it is each family’s own “pecking order” that helps to foster such disparities. Moving beyond traditionally accepted theories such as birth order or genetics to explain family dynamics, Conley instead draws upon three major studies to explore the impact of larger social forces that shape each family and the individuals within it. From Bill and Roger Clinton to the stories of hundreds of average Americans, here we are introduced to an America where class identity is ever changing and where siblings cannot necessarily follow the same paths. This is a book that will forever alter our idea of family.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Great Popular Song Recordings written by Steve Sullivan and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2013-10-04 with total page 1027 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From John Philip Sousa to Green Day, from Scott Joplin to Kanye West, from Stephen Foster to Coldplay, The Encyclopedia of Great Popular Song Recordings, Volumes 1 and 2 covers the vast scope of its subject with virtually unprecedented breadth and depth. Approximately 1,000 key song recordings from 1889 to the present are explored in full, unveiling the stories behind the songs, the recordings, the performers, and the songwriters. Beginning the journey in the era of Victorian parlor balladry, brass bands, and ragtime with the advent of the record industry, readers witness the birth of the blues and the dawn of jazz in the 1910s and the emergence of country music on record and the shift from acoustic to electrical recording in the 1920s. The odyssey continues through the Swing Era of the 1930s; rhythm & blues, bluegrass, and bebop in the 1940s; the rock & roll revolution of the 1950s; modern soul, the British invasion, and the folk-rock movement of the 1960s; and finally into the modern era through the musical streams of disco, punk, grunge, hip-hop, and contemporary dance-pop. Sullivan, however, also takes critical detours by extending the coverage to genres neglected in pop music histories, from ethnic and world music, the gospel recording of both black and white artists, and lesser-known traditional folk tunes that reach back hundreds of years. This book is ideal for anyone who truly loves popular music in all of its glorious variety, and anyone wishing to learn more about the roots of virtually all the music we hear today. Popular music fans, as well as scholars of recording history and technology and students of the intersections between music and cultural history will all find this book to be informative and interesting.

Randall shows how narrative psychology is integral to how we navigate everyday life. He makes the case that all people function as narrative psychologists by continually storying their lives - as well as those of others - in memory and imagination. The book weaves anecdotes of encounters its author experiences with speculations on his own life story, probing the narrative complexity of our memories, emotions, and identities, and our experience of everything from romance to rumour and history to religion.

Download or read book A Passin On written by Jayme Alan Toomey and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Jayme Alan Toomey Releases Another Disturbing Novel New harrowing tale that obscures faith and reason grips horror fiction aficionados VENTURA, Calif. Jayme Alan Toomey, author of the grand slam horror fiction stories Paging Dr. Kevorkian, Breakin Heads, and Written in Stupid, publishes another novel that will keep horror fiction fans at the edge of their seats. A Passin On is a blood-curling tale that obscures the borderline that delineates faith and delusion, reason and insanity, based on the queer life of a family headed by a self-proclaimed man of God. Father Joseph Rueben Levi commands a powerful and wise appearance. He is a tall, trim, middle-aged, self-proclaimed preacher who claims to have God-given and rightful authority. Dressed in black with a shepherds staff, he looks like a god. Christian and his younger brother, Chester, lost their family at a young age. Father Joseph adopted both boys as his own sons immediately after they were left orphaned. He wastes no time instructing them with the ways of God and reads the bible to them regularly, feeling it is his prioritized obligation. Christian remembers nothing about his real family except for one thing: they were brutally murdered right before his eyes by no other than Father Joseph himself. Told in a very gripping narrative, A Passin On will lead readers to a chain of violence, gore, disturbing preaching and shocking revelations. Readers will realize that sometimes, in the name of God and heaven, the thin line that divides morality and immorality can be blurred or erased altogether.
