Download or read book Vito S Journey Ii written by Vito A. Lepore and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For author Vito A. Lepore, the years between 1950 and 1959 were the most important of his life. Decisions were made that affected the coming years, and his character became defined. In Vitos Journey II, he picks up where part one of his memoir, Vitos Journey, leaves off but with a different focus. The first book introduced family members and told stories of a boys transition from Italy to America. Vitos Journey II begins with his first step out into an adult world and journeys through the stages that follow. Told in a series of entertaining vignettes, the stories include: his foray into baseball, the night Nunzio was kidnapped, a taste of the Italian personality, life in the military, a night in jail, and his first full-time adult job. There is also a climactic court sequence. In Vitos Journey II, Lepore communicates the lessons he learned throughout his life. Whether its boyhood or adulthood, life is a never-ending series of crossroads, some by accident and some by design. Your life can change on any given day. It then follows that there is no such thing as a last chance, and that failure is part of the learning process.
Download or read book Nicotine written by Gregor Hens and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST By turns philosophical and darkly comic, an ex-smoker’s meditation on the nature and consequences of his nearly lifelong addiction. Written with the passion of an obsessive, Nicotine addresses a lifelong addiction, from the thrill of the first drag to the perennial last last cigarette. Reflecting on his experiences as a smoker from a young age, Gregor Hens investigates the irreversible effects of nicotine on thought and patterns of behavior. He extends the conversation with other smokers to meditations on Mark Twain and Italo Svevo, the nature of habit, and the validity of hypnosis. With comic insight and meticulous precision, Hens deconstructs every facet of dependency, offering a brilliant analysis of the psychopathology of addiction. This is a book about the physical, emotional, and psychological power of nicotine as not only an addictive drug, but also a gateway to memory, a long trail of streetlights in the rearview mirror of a smoker’s life. Cigarettes are sometimes a solace, sometimes a weakness, but always a witness and companion. This is a meditation, an ode, and a eulogy, one that will be passed hand-to-hand between close friends.

Recover a stolen family heirloom, and try to keep the relationship with his very beautiful-and very married-client, strictly professional. Easy. But the Johnson Amulet is no mere trinket...and Derek isn't the only person trying to find the priceless relic. Before long he's up to his armpits in bodies, femme fatales... and tentacles. The stars have aligned... An ancient evil has awakened.To save the day, Derek must take some dark pathways, and not everyone is going to make it back out into the light. The Sirens Glasgow private investigator Derek Adams can't seem to get away from the otherworldly, especially not when it seems to be the only paying gig in town. So when an old widow offers him two grand to find her son-who isn't exactly missing...just not himself-it's not long before things start to get weird, and a road trip to the rural village of Skye turns into a detour to the twilight. Before long, Derek is on a remote island, hip-deep in mermaids, stalked by shape-shifters, and tangled in the nets of a diabolical fisher cult intent on waking an ancient god and unleashing the apocalypse. In other words, it's business as usual. The Skin Game Things are finally looking up for Glasgow private investigator Derek Adams. The agency is flush with cash and finally getting some respect, and the nightmares? Well, there's booze for that. But the dark side isn't finished with Derek. What starts off as a simple inquiry into the dealings of a shady bookie quickly descends into a battle with the shadowy unknown. Before he knows it, Derek is on the run, framed for an impossible murder. His only leverage is a strange skin belt that seems to have a life of its own, but hanging onto it might cost Derek more than just his life. This collection also includes three bonus Midnight Eye stories: "The Forth Protocol", "A Slim Chance", and "One, Two Go!" Praise for the Midnight Eye Files "Meikle's writing makes you feel like you're there, in the rain with Derek Adams, searching seedy pawn shops and bars for the answers. The atmosphere is terrific, and the author knows that sometimes less is more." - The Lovecraft ezine "I encourage you to pour yourself a couple of fingers of whisky and visit Meikle's and Derek's Glasgow some evening as the shadows grow long." - New Pulp "The writing itself is crisp, filled with good description and strong dialogue. The Scottish setting, while not prominent, grounds the reader in a sense of place. The characters, while themselves variations on noir tropes, are beleivable, and more importantly, likable. All of this, taken together, makes for a smooth, enjoyable read." - Rich Ristow, Strange Latitudes

Download or read book SILENT MUTINY written by T.N. Venkatasubramanian and published by T.N. Venkatasubramanian. This book was released on 2021-09-10 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life problems generally have subjective issues, and the habit of cigarette smoking is no exception. Unless these subjectivities or the individual perceptive mindsets are internally observed or understood ‘as-it-is’, the problems cannot be resolved through external remedies alone. Silent Mutiny is the nectar of the Author’s personal self-explorative journey and contains approaches that are individualistic, independent and also touch upon lessons learned or insights into universal strategies. INTERESTED READERS CAN WITNESS AN EXPERIENTIAL STORY FROM A NEW PERSPECTIVE. 44 Transformational stories made the author's inward journey meaningful and to move closer to realizing 'The Truth'. Prologue Am I holding my smoking habit for fun? Or, does the addiction fasten me to hold on? Can I fix something else responsible? Or, can I deny I’m not sensible? Can I ever breathe ‘freedom’? Or, do I have the guts to explore my wisdom? Am I the Body or the Mind? Or, can I find out who is governing me? Am I an intelligent person? Or, can I employ my intellect? Am I the user of my intellect? Then who am I? Many such questions came up in my mind, Long after drawn into this smoky wind; Not successful in my attempts to quit, As the needed attention not given to it; Been searching solutions outside unknowingly, And reacted to get answers to these questions foolishly! Sat back and worked out to discover the secret, And paid special attention to understand my habit; For the smoking routines, cultivated abilities to respond, And tried to understand the ‘nature of mind’; Then happily harvested the yields of harmony, Buried deep inside the Body, Mind, Intelligence and Intellect. Often feared on seeing shadows in smoky darkness, Remained in it and waged futile fights; Lacked courage to face life’s meanings, Failed to experience beyond the practice of smoking; Had good skill in lighting cigarettes even in stormy wind, Realized to focus my Mind – Intellect – to ‘light a lamp’ in my Heart! T.N. Venkatasubramanian
Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
