Book excerpt: Memoirs of a Jew born in 1924 in Uzhhorod, relating how he and eight of his nine siblings survived, helping each other and other Jews. After their region of Czechoslovakia was annexed to Hungary in 1939 and the latter was then occupied by the Nazis in 1944, he and his siblings were sent into hiding. Protected by non-Jews, Katz maintained his religious observance. His parents and brother Pinchas were imprisoned in the Uzhhorod ghetto, then sent to Auschwitz, where they were killed. His brother Joe reached Switzerland when emigration was possible. In Budapest, his sister Chana hid as an "Aryan", was arrested, and escaped. She helped her sister Terry and brothers Sonny and Moshe, who had earlier helped their brother Yankel and other Jews hiding on a farm. Moshe witnessed the Sálaszi Iron Cross terror, including the mass drowning of Jewish children. After the war his sister Manca found their brother Louie very ill and nursed him back to health. Moshe helped Jewish refugees after the war, in Prague and Paris. He then moved to the U.S., where he continued living a religious life and helping Jews.

Book excerpt: Visionary social entrepreneur David Pecaut’s life demonstrates how to make a positive impact on a community. City builder David Pecaut has been called a visionary and a pragmatist, passionate and compassionate, a bridge builder, a catalyst, and a trailblazer. Though David was a business leader and management consultant, most of these accolades flow from his volunteer work as a civic entrepreneur. A native of Sioux City, Iowa, David chose Toronto as the beneficiary of his formidable enthusiasm. When Toronto was in the doldrums because of the SARS scare, David helped the city restore its tourism industry by chairing the Toront03 Alliance, launched by a flamboyant Rolling Stones concert. David was perhaps best known for co-founding Luminato, the international festival that each spring showcases the world’s finest artists to audiences of over a million. As chair of the Toronto City Summit Alliance, David worked as easily with the homeless, minorities, and poverty activists as with billionaires, corporate CEOs, and labour leaders to tackle pressing social and economic issues. He was the driving force behind the Career Edge youth internship program, the Strong Neighbourhoods Task Force, the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council, DiverseCity, the Emerging Leaders Network, the task force on modernizing income security, and Greening Greater Toronto. David’s efforts to make Toronto the most socially and culturally dynamic urban centre in the world were cut short when he succumbed to cancer in December 2009. When it became obvious that his time was running out, he took copious notes and recorded interviews with friends, colleagues, and family, all of which are the basis for this book, a memoir by his wife Helen Burstyn.

Download or read book Ten Points written by Bill Strickland and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2007-07-03 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the eight million dedicated cyclists in this country, just 32,044 own amateur racing licenses. There's a reason for that: Racing is not only incredibly difficult, it's downright excruciating, with the possibility for public humiliation never more than one pedal away. So when Natalie, Bill Strickland's preschool-aged daughter, asked him if he could win ten points during one racing season -- the bicycling equivalent of taking an at-bat against Randy Johnson or going one-on-one with Lebron James--a sensible man would've just said no and moved on. Instead, Strickland decided to try. In the process, he discovered that he was racing toward the loving home life he cherished and, at the same time, trying to get away from something far worse -- his legacy of horrific childhood abuse. Strickland's memoir is filled with lyrical insights on training and dedication, racing scenes packed with nail-biting suspense, and powerful reflections on the meaning of family. Because for Strickland, it's definitely not about the bike.
Download or read book Bed Number Ten written by Sue Baier and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1989-03-31 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A patient's personal view of long term care. Seen through the eyes of a patient totally paralyzed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, this moving book takes you through the psychological and physical pain of an eleven month hospital stay. BED NUMBER TEN reads like a compelling novel, but is entirely factual. You will meet: The ICU staff who learned to communicate with the paralyzed woman - and those who did not bother. The physicians whose visits left her baffled about her own case. The staff and physicians who spoke to her and others who did not recognize her presence. The nurse who tucked Sue tightly under the covers, unaware that she was soaking with perspiration. The nurse who took the time to feed her drop by drop, as she slowly learned how to swallow again. The physical therapist who could read her eyes and spurred her on to move again as if the battle were his own. In these pages, which reveal the caring, the heroism, and the insensitivity sometimes found in the health care fields, you may even meet people you know.
