Dark clouds begin to gather over the bay as news headlines signal that Covid-19 has reached the United States with the first community transmitted cases emerging in the San Francisco Bay Area. Almost overnight, amidst a shelter-in-place, Grace finds herself on the frontlines of the crisis caring for the scores of patients filling her intensive care unit at Harris Memorial Hospital.

Download or read book Rocks Off written by Bill Janovitz and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: December 3-4, 1969. Keith and Mick stood at the same microphone at Muscle Shoals, lights dimmed, splitting a fifth of bourbon, and simultaneously sang the melodies and harmonies on the three songs that they had recorded over three days: "Brown Sugar," "You Got to Move," and "Wild Horses." That's your rock ‘n' roll fantasy right there, pal. A six-piece band working in a tiny converted coffin factory across from an Alabama graveyard, on an eight-track recorder, with no computer editing or Autotune, recorded three songs, representing 30 percent of one of the greatest rock ‘n' roll records of all time. So tells Bill Janovitz of the making of the inimitable triple-platinum album, Sticky Fingers, which hit number one in the US and the UK in 1971, skyrocketing the band to superstardom. To Bill, all artists reveal themselves through their work and the Rolling Stones are no different: Each song exposes a little more of their soul. In Rocks Off, Janovitz reveals the forces at work behind the band's music by deconstructing their most representative tunes from their incredible fifty years of record making. Written by a Stones fanatic, this is a song-by-song chronicle that maps the landmarks of the band's career while expanding on their recording and personal history. Much like friends pouring over old records or having a barroom argument over the merits of certain songs, the book presents the musical leaps taken by the band and discusses how the lyrical content both reflected and influenced popular culture. The song choices are chronological and subjective; many of them are the classic hits; however, the book digs deeper into beloved album tracks and songs with unique stories behind them. Rocks Off is the ultimate listening guide and thinking man's companion that will spur you to dust off those old albums and listen in with a newfound perspective on one of the most famous and acclaimed rock 'n' roll bands of all time.

Download or read book An Adventure of Dojada written by J Robert Hartman and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enter the journey of a young black belt martial artist as he learns the lessons passed down by those who traveled before him. Walk with him as he discovers one must not only find his gift, but one must learn to keep his gift. As you take this journey, you too may unlock the wisdoms of those who traveled before you and discover your own true gift. Author's Note: This book came about because I saw a great need to help parents, guardians, teachers, and other martial arts teachers teach children how to set goals, make good decisions, find their purpose, tell them the truth about bullying, and more. These lessons needed to be in a fun adventure of discovery so the children would want to read this journey, learn, ask questions, and discover. Enjoy the journey!

It offers a novel alternative theoretical perspective stressing the significance of visual narrative structure and rhythm, using musical analogies, putting particular emphasis on the embodied perception of images in a landscape context. Part I reviews the major theories and interpretative perspectives put forward to understand the images, in historical perspective, and provides a critique discussing each of the main types of motifs occurring on the rocks. Part II outlines an innovative theoretical and methodological perspective for their study stressing sequence and relationality in bodily movement from rock to rock. Part III is a detailed case study and analysis of a series of rocks from northern Bohuslän in western Sweden. The conclusions reflect on the theoretical and methodological approach being taken in relation to the disciplinary practices involved in rock art research, and its future.
