  • Pages : 263 pages

Download or read book Portolina written by Aubrey J. Sher and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-04-02 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PORTOLINA Hells Kitchen Or Shangri-La? is a riddle, mystery, wrapped up in an enigma, about former Chief of Homicide in San Fernando Valley, California, John Mirabella, and his wife, Theresa (Teri), who believe they found their ideal town for retirement in the San Bernardino/San Gabriel area in California. On their first visit to the town of Portolina, they find a very unfriendly Sheriff and several inhospitable citizens of the town who, to put it mildly, urge the visitors to leave. John Mirabella, however, remains unfazed by the outlandish treatment he and his wife received on their initial visit. They return to Portolina only to experience an attempt on their lives. John, one of the heroes in my book ROMULUS AND REMUS The Imperfect Murders, enlists the help of the other hero in the aforementioned book, Ernie Barnes, Private Investigator, as both embark on a suspenseful and most unusual journey to discover the reasons for the behavior of the Portolinians in their attempt to hide whatever alleged crime(s) they have been committing. Eventually, they bring a mutual friend, FBI Agent Augie Brandt, and his brother State Trooper Gary Brandt into the case. The lawmen work on theories involving murder, drug marketing, a recent Brinks armored vehicle robbery, racketeering, bank robbery, money laundering, kidnapping and rape. Those theories are just a few of the possibilities devised by the four experienced investigators, who are frustrated as they try to avoid facing a brick wall in following each theory to its conclusion. The final chapter, Chapter 35, presents quite a surprising revelation as it begins with a raid on the community and ends with the answer to the question, Is Portolina a Hells Kitchen or a Shangri-La?

Book Stylish Academic Writing

Download or read book Stylish Academic Writing written by Helen Sword and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elegant data and ideas deserve elegant expression, argues Helen Sword in this lively guide to academic writing. For scholars frustrated with disciplinary conventions, and for specialists who want to write for a larger audience but are unsure where to begin, here are imaginative, practical, witty pointers that show how to make articles and books a pleasure to read—and to write. Dispelling the myth that you cannot get published without writing wordy, impersonal prose, Sword shows how much journal editors and readers welcome work that avoids excessive jargon and abstraction. Sword’s analysis of more than a thousand peer-reviewed articles across a wide range of fields documents a startling gap between how academics typically describe good writing and the turgid prose they regularly produce. Stylish Academic Writing showcases a range of scholars from the sciences, humanities, and social sciences who write with vividness and panache. Individual chapters take up specific elements of style, such as titles and headings, chapter openings, and structure, and close with examples of transferable techniques that any writer can master.

Book excerpt: If you've ever dreamed of casting off your worldly possessions and traveling to your heart's content, this story about two intrepid seniors will inspire you no matter your age. Michael and Debbie Campbell felt they had one more adventure in them before considering retirement in the traditional sense, so they filled two rolling duffel bags with life's essentials (including their own pillows) and hit the road. Three years later, having sold their home in Seattle, their "Senior Nomad" lifestyle has no end in sight. Ride along as they share tales of living full-time in Airbnbs in over 50 countries and pay tribute to the many hosts who not only helped them live daily life, but also offered unique opportunities to experience their cities. From the barber's chair in Dublin and the dentist's chair in Split, to a wild motorcycle ride in Athens, a peek behind the Soviet Curtain in Transnistria, and the demise of a chicken for dinner in Marrakech, hosts made the Campbell's dream of adventure come true. Discover how Debbie and Michael find their next Airbnb, how they get there, and the many ways they enjoy their new city just as the locals do. Learn their tips and tricks for using Airbnb and how they get the most out of each stay, all while spending little more than they would have spent settled into their rocking chairs in Seattle.
