Book excerpt: The Christopher Saga Continues This sequel to “Mark My Words” tells the story of Elijah Edwards, current patriarch of the Edwards branch of the Christopher family and first cousin to Allan Beckley Christopher. Eli bears the legacy of a wealthy, powerful African-American family with generations of old money. He has also inherited a “gift”—one that can bring happiness, joy, pain or tragedy randomly. From his power couple parents, Eli learned the values of family, service, commitment, integrity, work ethics and the responsibility that came with wealth. His is a family that sets standards rather than follows them, and the Edwards family has put their stamp prominently on the community. He knows well the family motto: “You never know what hand in life you’ll be dealt.” Will Eli’s “gift”, however, help him or hurt him when he needs it most? Through his wife of fifty-seven years, his sister, his children, nephews and niece, we will learn of the influence he and his “gift” have had on their lives. The time is 2007; the place, Minneapolis.

Download or read book The First 20 Hours written by Josh Kaufman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

Book excerpt: “Dating” at an advanced age isn’t for sissies. Neither is the thought of intimacy, especially facing each other in the buff. Jake Kaplan, seventy-five years old, and retired for the past ten, had recently lost his wife, Frieda, and had acquired the status of “single eligible male.” He learned his most attractive qualities to women were a full head of hair, a pension and the ability to drive a car at night. Phyllis insisted he wear a tie. Agnes wouldn’t travel in a subway or bus. Zelda lived in Newark. And, Doris wanted to know whether he had shortness of breath. There were rejections. There were disappointments. And with it...an occasional migraine. Of course, there were the kisses and the sleepovers. In either case, it wasn’t easy. Thank heavens, Jake could run for support to his new friends, daughter and son-in-law.

After a lifetime of hardship, Jessica Thornton finally has the life she’s dreamed of: a new marriage to a realtor with burgeoning success; a daughter whose athleticism has won her a scholarship to college; and a freshly-secured grant from her bank to finally complete her own higher education. Her life today is a complete reversal from the not-too-distant past, when the death of her first husband left her penniless and desperate to provide for her then-newborn child. But after the murder of her children’s high school classmate, a series of disturbances brings Jessica to question whether her dreams ever actually came true, or whether they’ve just been delusions all along . . . In the days after the murder, suspicion creeps in at every corner, beginning with Jessica’s daughter and stepson, who won’t tell her where they were on that fateful night. Then she discovers that her husband’s business is failing, not growing, and that the stories he’s told of meetings with high-powered investors were nothing more than lies. And when a private investigator comes to look into the death of her first husband, her last foundation of truth slips suddenly away.

At stake is a multi-million dollar estate in Devil's Swamp in rural Hancock County, Mississippi, near the coastal town of Bay St. Louis. Attending the meeting are the Godfather from New York and mob bosses from several major cities. The Godfather asks the local mob boss, Juan Bartolli, if it would be alright for Tony to stay in the area and possibly be shown around Bartolli's operation. Bartolli agrees and arranges for his associates to have Tony present when some of his operation's illegal activities take place. One of those associates is the sheriff of Hancock County, Raymond Burdette, who drives Tony several miles south of New Orleans to view Bartolli's estate, where some of the gang's more serious problems are dealt with. During a meeting with Bartolli, Tony is told to try to befriend Hancock County Deputy Sheriff Mark Patterson, who has been responsible for recent drug shipment seizures that have cost the Bartolli gang over one million dollars.

Bartolli's actions and plans cause Tony to question his association with the gang. Made aware of an upcoming attempt on someone's life, he is forced to make a determination concerning courses of action that he might take.

Download or read book The Poets of Tin Pan Alley written by Philip Furia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1992-06-25 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the turn of the century to the 1960s, the songwriters of Tin Pan Alley dominated American music. Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, George and Ira Gershwin, Rodgers and Hart--even today these giants remain household names, their musicals regularly revived, their methods and styles analyzed and imitated, and their songs the bedrock of jazz and cabaret. In The Poets of Tin Pan Alley Philip Furia offers a unique new perspective on these great songwriters, showing how their poetic lyrics were as important as their brilliant music in shaping a golden age of American popular song. Furia writes with great perception and understanding as he explores the deft rhymes, inventive imagery, and witty solutions these songwriters used to breathe new life into rigidly established genres. He devotes full chapters to all the greats, including Irving Berlin, Lorenz Hart, Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Oscar Hammerstain II, Howard Dietz, E.Y. Harburg, Dorothy Fields, Leo Robin, and Johnny Mercer. Furia also offers a comprehensive survey of other lyricists who wrote for the sheet-music industry, Broadway, Hollywood, and Harlem nightclub revues. This was the era that produced The New Yorker, Don Marquis, Dorothy Parker, and E.B. White--and Furia places the lyrics firmly in this fascinating historical context. In these pages, the lyrics emerge as an important element of American modernism, as the lyricists, like the great modernist poets, took the American vernacular and made it sing.
