Download or read book Two Sides of Glory written by Erik Sherman and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following an epic American League Championship Series win over the California Angels and just one out from winning their first World Series in sixty-eight years, the 1986 Boston Red Sox lost Game Six to the New York Mets in unforgettable and devastating fashion. Then they lost Game Seven and the Series itself. Two Sides of Glory portrays the losing side of the story about one of baseball's most riveting World Series match-ups. With the benefit of years of reflection from the men who made up the '86 Sox, this will be the definitive book on this iconic yet most Shakespearian of Boston teams for years to come. After telling the Mets' side of the story, Erik Sherman turns here to the Red Sox's version, with recollections from players that are both insightful and surprisingly emotional. Bill Buckner, whose name became synonymous with a muffed grounder, speaks openly about the cruel aftermath. Pitcher Bruce Hurst broke down three times while being interviewed. Dwight Evans confesses in his interview that he had never before talked at length about the '86 team. And Roger Clemens talks candidly not only about the '86 squad but also accusations of alleged steroid abuse later in his career and the toll it has taken on his family. In each player's retelling, there is the excitement of history never told and old mysteries answered. The story of the '86 Red Sox is well known, but now, after thirty years, the players have opened up to Sherman like never before. It's an in-depth, first-person account with the intriguing key players who made up this once-in-a-generation Boston team, and also a look at how the extremes of tantalizing victory and heart-wrenching failure shaped and influenced their lives--both on the field and off.

Download or read book A Tale of Two Sides written by Vienna Vercelli and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-08-30 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perspective is how we see a situation based on an emotional response during a moment. As we grow and learn, we gain new perspectives on old circumstances and even handle ourselves differently in new settings. We all experience struggles and challenges in life. We adapt to the environment we are placed in and make choices based on those circumstances. Some of us cope better than others and can illuminate logic where others can’t see. However, learning to look through the lens of another is the ability to embrace judgment and learn compassion. Embracing life’s journey with the guidance of Jesus isn’t always easy, and the verses we read or hear that resonate with us most are the verses we can relate to at that moment in time. We can read the same verse at various stages in our lives and see it differently at every phase. The dilemma is not knowing the version before the life experience in order to make better choices. Submissiveness to God’s plans is where trusting him begins. Only trusting God’s plan for our lives seems to be more difficult than it should be. The logical question is why?
Download or read book Managing Your Mind written by Gillian Butler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-08 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1995, the first edition of Managing Your Mind established a unique place in the self-help book market. A blend of tried-and-true psychological counseling and no-nonsense management advice grounded in the principles of CBTand other psychological treatments, the book straddled two types of self-help literature, arguing that in one's personal and professional life, the way to success is the same. By adopting the practical strategies that mental health experts Butler and Hope have developed over years of clinical research and practice, one can develop the "mental fitness" necessary to resolve one's personal and interpersonal challenges at home and work and to live a productive, satisfying life. The first edition addressed how to develop key skills to mental fitness (e.g., managing one's time better, facing and solving problems better, keeping things in perspective, learning to relax, etc.), how to improve one's relationships, how to beat anxiety and depression, and how to establish a good mind-body balance. For this new edition, Butler and Hope have updated all preexisting material and have added five new chapters-on sexuality and intimate relationships; anger in relationships; recent traumatic events and their aftermath; loss and bereavement; and dealing with the past.

Download or read book Light and Matter Two Sides of the Same Coin written by Daniele Funaro and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-24 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an opinionated and irreverent tone, the author debunks most of the current theories in the field of modern physics, appealing to the scientific method and common sense. At the same time, in strict compliance with the already known experimental evidence, he proposes his own version of the facts, aimed at rationalizing and unifying the various aspects in which the nature that surrounds us manifests itself. The result is a possible model of the universe where events are all connected by a common thread, even if distributed on different scales, ranging from the subatomic to that of galaxies. In this perspective, in the middle, the living cell profits from a substrate and a habitat that have favoured its very existence. Reading of this book does not require any advanced scientific knowledge and is therefore accessible to non-experts, provided they are equipped with the necessary dose of eccentricity that allows them to appreciate these provocative pages.
