Download or read book Trust Me I m Dr Ozzy written by Ozzy Osbourne and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wondering if science could explain how he survived his 40-year avalanche of drugs and alcohol, Ozzy Osbourne became one of a handful of people in the world to have his entire DNA mapped in 2010. It was a highly complex, $65,000 process, but the results were conclusive: Ozzy is a genetic anomaly. The "Full Ozzy Genome" contained variants that scientists had never before encountered and the findings were presented at the prestigious TEDMED Conference in San Diego-making headlines around the world. The procedure was in part sponsored by The Sunday Times of London, which had already caused an international fururoe by appointing Ozzy Osbourne its star health advice columnist. The newpaper argued that Ozzy's mutliple near-death experiences, 40-year history of drug abuse, and extreme hypocondria qualified him more than any other for the job. The column was an overnight hit, being quickly picked up by Rolling Stone to give it a global audience of millions. In Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy, Ozzy answers reader's questions with his outrageous wit and surprising wisdom, digging deep into his past to tell the memoir-style survival stories never published before-and offer guidance that no sane human being should follow. Part humor, part memoir, and part bad advice, Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy will include some of the best material from his published columns, answers to celebrities' medical questions, charts, sidebars, and more.

It is a dialogue about their adventures in pursuing those loves and achieving recognition for their accomplishments. In 2008 the book garnered FIRST PLACE in the DIY California Book Fest and HONORABLE MENTIONS in A DOZEN BOOK FESTS including the New England Book Fest and the LONDON, ENGLAND book fest. It is a readable, visual delight. There is a profound degree of “suchness” or Zen quality in Jim Houser’s paintings as well as a lyricism not unlike the clear concise resonance of Robert Frost’s shorter verse. Those essentials are shown in the almost forty paintings photographed for The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser. The imagined and inventive device and use of letters (or messages) in "The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser swiftly conveys the actual events in Jim and Connie Houser’s lives. The creative partners are portrayed in a rapidly moving dialogue that involves the reader in artist’s competitions, art gallery shows, foreign and domestic travel, family life, and an understanding of the profession of producing a fine work of art in modern times. The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser explains that a fine work of art is very different from the remainder of artistic endeavor. Fine art engages the viewer in a visual dialogue that distinguishes it and bonds the viewer in love or hate but never mediocrity. Not a run of the mill coffee table book, The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser is a charming and accurate account of the modern day artist’s life while creating works of art and bringing them to the public’s attention. The story encompasses the tragedies and the successes in the Houser’s lives and their interaction with others. Written by the artist’s wife, Connie Houser, herself an awarded artist and writer, it spans the artists’ relationship thus far and offers insights into their creative work. The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser follows the artists’ creative work accomplished during their hectic everyday existence. The same full lives of having a family, a home, and a job to pay bills, necessary today to most people. Although the letters themselves are an imaginative artistic device to enliven the book, the events are true. Not satisfied to just get by, they made career choices that would eventually make them both candidates for inclusion in the prestigious Marquis Who’s Who editions of art, literature, America and the World. Jim has been represented in those volumes for fifteen years and Connie joined the ranks in 2004. Photographs of his paintings will also appeared in the 2008-2009 "Who ́s Who in American Art" Artist ́s gallery. Their ability to continue to work under conditions that might discourage others is made clear in The Letters: Portrait of an Artist, Jim Houser. Jim‘s profession is painting and Connie’s is writing and painting. The rest of their work, although they contributed much, enjoyed it, and performed with excellence, was done to pay the bills. Jim was a 30-year college professor and full-time family man. Connie organized family matters, taught part-time, while writing for various publications and magazines plus painting. The carousing hours were the working hours for their creative efforts because silence reigned. Their many travel adventures in the states and abroad guaranteed they played hard with the same energy and enthusiasms. When Jim began winning countless awards for his painting, he was invited to show at numerous exhibitions and in New York City galleries. They added these events plus art show openings to their already hectic schedule. Through it all they managed a fulfilling family life while taking creative care of their parents and allowing them their desired home life.
