Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 2: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities, With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees The sketches which are presented in this volume are not intended as biographies of the persons who are made the subjects of representation. The purpose of the book is to bring together in a single group the names, faces and condensed records of the wise founders, generous benefactors, earnest teachers and faithful officers who have established, fostered and developed the great institutions of learning to which this series of volumes is devoted. The number of men who have at one time or another filled positions which entitle them to a place in this galaxy is so very great, that merely to record their names would itself fill several hundred printed pages. Not only therefore is the collective representation which has been attempted in these pages necessarily incomplete, but from similar necessity the life-records given are in the main very brief. Yet it is believed, at least is hoped, that the work of selection and presentation has been done with a sufficient degree of intelligent judgment, painstaking thoroughness and historical accuracy to fulfill the plan outlined with reasonable completeness, and to secure results both interesting and valuable to all University Sons. From the very nature of the work herein attempted, any omissions or shortcomings must be too palpably evident and conspicuous to escape notice. Criticism therefore as to general incompleteness, methods of selection, manner of treatment and matter treated of, is anticipated; in fact, is inevitable. That the strictures of the critics may be based upon just grounds, with a clear understanding of the limitations of the undertaking and the difficulties involved in its performance, this brief prefatory statement is made. It may also be properly added that while authors may write and publishers may print whatever they please about the dead, they are debarred from taking such liberties with the living.

Download or read book Love Life written by Rob Lowe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the heels of his New York Times bestselling Stories I Only Tell My Friends, Rob Lowe is back with an entertaining collection that “invites readers into his world with easy charm and disarming frankness” (Kirkus Reviews). After the incredible response to his acclaimed bestseller, Stories I Only Tell My Friends, Rob Lowe was convinced to mine his experiences for even more stories. The result is Love Life, a memoir about men and women, actors and producers, art and commerce, fathers and sons, movies and TV, addiction and recovery, sex and love. Among the adventures he describes in these pages are: · His visit, as a young man, to Hugh Hefner’s Playboy Mansion, where the naïve actor made a surprising discovery in the hot tub. · The time, as a boy growing up in Malibu, he discovered a vibrator belonging to his best friend’s mother. · What it’s like to be the star and producer of a flop TV show. · How an actor prepares, for Californification, Parks and Recreation, and numerous other roles. · His hilarious account of coaching a kid’s basketball team dominated by helicopter parents. · How his great, great, great, great, great grandfather may have inspired everything from his love of The West Wing to his taste in classic American architecture. · His first visit to college, with his son, who is going to receive the education his father never got. · The time a major movie star stole his girlfriend. Linked by common themes and his philosophical perspective on love—and life—Lowe’s writing “is loaded with showbiz anecdotes, self-deprecating tales, and has a general sweetness” (New York Post).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 5: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees Elgin Adelbert Angell, Lawyer, was born in the Angell Settlement, so-called, near Forestville in Chautauqua county, New York, August 14, 1849, the son of Cyrus D. and Lucina (Shepard) Angell. He traced his descent directly from Roger Williams of Rhode Island, through his daughter, and from Thomas Angell, one of the Crown Commissioners for the settlement of Rhode Island. His preparatory school work was done in the common schools of Forestville and at Adelbert Academy in Belleville, Ontario, and he entered Harvard in 1869, graduating with high honors in the Class of 1873. He then began a business career in the oil fields of Western Pennsylvania with his father who had been a large and influential operator there for many years, but soon tiring of this entered Harvard Law School in November 1873, and supporting himself by tutoring, principally in mathematics, graduated with the usual degree of Bachelor of Laws in 1875. Entering the law office of General T. W. Sanderson of Youngstown, Ohio, he was soon after admitted to the Bar, and in 1877 came to Cleveland and quickly became known for his thorough legal training and general abilities. In 1884 he formed a law partnership with J. H. Webster of that city, with whom he continued until his death, the firm being first known as Webster & Angell and afterwards as Webster, Angell & Cook. In 1893, at the request of many of the leading citizens of the city and northern Ohio, Mr. Angell was chosen by the Governor, now President McKinley, as one of four forming a Commission to investigate the system of taxation of the state and devise some new plan which would meet the demand of the present day and afford relief from the inequalities and faults of the antiquated code then in force. During the next year he gave his entire time to this work, in meetings throughout the state, in investigation of local complaints, and in the taking of testimony of countless manufacturers, corporations, capitalists and farmers. He was chosen by his associates to prepare the report of this very important commission and produced one of the most valuable monographs ever published upon the subject. It was at once recognized by students of economics as a most valuable contribution to political science and won for its author an enviable reputation. Many articles upon the subject followed published by the Cleveland Chamber of commerce and in pamphlet form by the author, upon different phases of the problem, including a very profound study in the Yale Review of February 1897. Mr. Angell as a lawyer loved the equity side of the practice. He was obliged in 1889 to investigate the novelty of a patent and defend its alleged infringement in order to protect his financial interests as a part owner therein; and his brilliant success in this contention encouraged him in undertaking other patent cases until at the time of his death he had attained therein a reputation second to none in the state, and had adopted this as his special work. For many years Mr. Angell belonged to the Union Club, the Rowfant Club and Country Club of Cleveland, and the Harvard Club of New York, and just preceding his death had been elected to the University Club of New York and had aided in the preliminary organization of the University Club of Cleveland. He was also a very active and valued member of the Chamber of Commerce, the Bar Association, the Ohio Society of the Sons of the American Revolution and the Archaeological Institute of America. He never held political office, but was a strong and active Republican. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 3: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities; With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees The time is past when a University education necessarily implied a strict following of what was known as the learned professions. Indeed, this term itself has had large extension within recent years. Law, medicine and theology, which made the noble scope of the mediaeval Universities, no longer bound the activities of the great schools which have inherited their name and still bear their prestige transported in place and broadened in scope. Journalism; literary authorship; teaching, in its various lines and grades; engineering, in the construction and handling of the fast developing applications of modern physical science; even more, perhaps, research, exploration, invention, in all fields of observation, and among the elements, forces or laws of action, whether in the physical or psychical spheres, all these demand a preparation for which the means and encouragements of the highest schools are none too ample. The successful prosecution of any of these aims may well deserve the rank of a learned profession. In fact, we might warrantably say that in these modern days science, philosophy and art have all enlarged their content and their scope. Geology, geography, meteorology, astronomy, have each revealed new aspects of the worlds; biology, new reaches of life; chemistry and molecular physics have opened to us glimpses of wondrous modes of action which we scarcely dignify by calling them laws, inasmuch as they seem like generative powers; the problems of psychology are investigated on new lines, and even the traditions of history in its monu ments. Relics and languages are tried by new tests and lead to new grounds of conclusion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: PARENTING NEVER ENDS. From the founders of the #1 site for parents of teens and young adults comes an essential guide for building strong relationships with your teens and preparing them to successfully launch into adulthood The high school and college years: an extended roller coaster of academics, friends, first loves, first break-ups, driver’s ed, jobs, and everything in between. Kids are constantly changing and how we parent them must change, too. But how do we stay close as a family as our lives move apart? Enter the co-founders of Grown and Flown, Lisa Heffernan and Mary Dell Harrington. In the midst of guiding their own kids through this transition, they launched what has become the largest website and online community for parents of fifteen to twenty-five year olds. Now they’ve compiled new takeaways and fresh insights from all that they’ve learned into this handy, must-have guide. Grown and Flown is a one-stop resource for parenting teenagers, leading up to—and through—high school and those first years of independence. It covers everything from the monumental (how to let your kids go) to the mundane (how to shop for a dorm room). Organized by topic—such as academics, anxiety and mental health, college life—it features a combination of stories, advice from professionals, and practical sidebars. Consider this your parenting lifeline: an easy-to-use manual that offers support and perspective. Grown and Flown is required reading for anyone looking to raise an adult with whom you have an enduring, profound connection.
