Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his trademark straight-talking, no-nonsense style Mark Webber reveals his amazing life on and off the Formula One race track in Aussie Grit. Mark Webber was at the centre of one of the most captivating chapters in the history of Formula One. In 2010, while racing for Red Bull, he and his team mate Sebastian Vettel went head to head for the World Championship. There could only be one winner. Since retiring from Formula One Mark has concentrated on endurance racing, including the legendary Le Mans 24 Hour race. He hit the front pages of newspapers around the world in December 2014 when he slammed into the barricades in the final round of the FIA World Endurance Championship in South America, and was lucky to escape with his life. But the controversy of his relationship on and off the track with Vettel, who went on to win multiple world titles, has never been far beneath the surface. Here, for the first time, Webber tells the inside story of one of Formula One's most intriguing battles – it is a story that goes to the heart of why the sport is loved by millions of fans around the world. From his first taste of karting to his F1 debut in 2002, scoring Minardi's first points in three years at the Australian Grand Prix, through to his first win with Red Bull at the 2009 German Grand Prix and the year he should have been crowned World Champion. Mark Webber's journey to the top of Formula One was every bit as determined and committed as his racing. Aussie Grit is his searingly honest story. Includes a foreword by Formula One legend Sir Jackie Stewart.

Download or read book Normal written by Magdalena Newman and published by Clarion Books. This book was released on 2020 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully illustrated and lyrical picture-book biography of eccentric and beloved writer Praised by R.J. Palacio as "wondrous"--this moving memoir follows a teenage boy with TC syndrome and his exceptional family from diagnosis at birth to now. "This touching memoir is a must-read for anyone who wants to know more about the real-world experiences of a child with craniofacial differences and his extraordinary family. It's also more than that. It's a story about the love between a mother and a son, a child and his family, and the breadth of friends, helpers, and doctors that step in when the unexpected happens. It's a story that will make young readers reevaluate the word 'normal'--not only as it applies to others, but to themselves. Any book that can do that is pretty wondrous, as far as I'm concerned." --R.J. Palacio, author of Wonder Normal. Who is to say what this word means? For Magda Newman, it was a goal. She wanted her son Nathaniel to be able to play on the playground, swim at the beach, enjoy the moments his friends took for granted. But Nathaniel's severe Treacher Collins syndrome--a craniofacial condition--meant that other concerns came first. Could he eat without the aid of a gastrointestinal tube? Could he hear? Would he ever be able to breathe effortlessly? But Nathaniel looks at "normal" from a completely different perspective. In this uplifting and humorous memoir that includes black-and-white comic illustrations, mother and son tell the story of his growing up--from facing sixty-seven surgeries before the age of fifteen, to making friends, moving across the country, and persevering through hardships. How they tackle extraordinary circumstances with love and resilience is a true testament to Magda and Nathaniel's family, and to families everywhere who quietly but courageously persist.
Download or read book Twelve Steps One Journey written by Bobbie Godwin and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I first entered Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), I started hearing the stories of people. Regardless of culture, racial origin, economic stature, or sex, all of the stories reflected the journeys alcoholics took to arrive at AA’s doorstep. It was in hearing the journeys of others that I began to get well. My alcoholism was not stronger than my humanity. Thank God! In the years of working in the treatment of addictions, I have learned that the journeys of alcoholics and drug addicts are very similar. The primary difference is drug of choice. Addiction is the disease. That is why both AA and NA (Narcotics Anonymous) and the many twelve-step groups that have been birthed from the original all use the basic twelve steps, substituting different words for the powerless concept. What a powerful gift Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith have given the world! We need our separate groups and communities, but we come together in the twelve steps. For this reason, I have shared my understanding of the twelve steps to alcoholics, cocaine addicts, pill addicts, gamblers, food addicts, and sex addicts, to name a few. The formula to recovery is the twelve steps. Although I present this book mainly in the language of Alcoholics Anonymous, it is intended to be used for any person in recovery from the disease of addiction. Also, I have written this book from my Christian faith and experience. However, the core principle of AA is a belief in a Higher Power as you understand the meaning of that term, which is all inclusive. Alcoholics Anonymous is not aligned to any particular sect, denomination, religion, organization, etc. I grew up with a storyteller. My father was more entertaining than any of the television personalities. I have remembered the joy of listening to his stories and retained the messages long after the life of his words. The stories in this book were heard in meetings, sermons, retreats, or simply told by a friend, and are stories that touched me personally in my recovery and have sustained me through the years, helping me work anew the twelve-step program. I offer this book as a tool to help in the use of the twelve steps. The book is my personal interpretation of the steps. It is my hope that it will benefit you in your personal journey of recovery.

Download or read book One Journey to a New Way of Being written by Phyllis Douglass and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2020-03-14 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE - A Journey To A New Way Of Being, is an angelically transmitted and sacred artifact that is a frequency-based alchemical technology, to assist the awakening and ascension of human kind. As a sacred artifact, the Angels stated that this book must never be published in a digital format, as merely being in the presence of the physical book serves as a catalyst for change. When held within ones hands, read and meditatively contemplated upon, or placed within a healing space or on a bedside table to permeate the Dreaming, it emanates divinely encoded frequencies through symbolic imagery and the Angelical Adamic Language of God.This book is significantly different from the norm in that it is a multidimensional and magical technology. Though seen and heard like your native and acquired languages, it is recognized on a soul level. Its vibration and meaning bypasses the human mind, and gains access through the heart like a long, forgotten lullaby from childhood, that still serves as a soothing mechanism for the mind and body. Each of the pages has a focused intent, and the book in its entirety is a spiritual voyage designed to draw the aspirant through a spiritual process, to benefit all levels of one's being. This alchemical tome was created to assist the elevation of humanity, by sharing the truth of who we are. Most people identify with being human beings, but in reality, the physical vehicle that we inhabit is exactly that. A vehicle for our highest and most infinite self--our essential essence.In essence, ONE is an alchemical technology made up of prescriptively encoded and frequency-based formulations, capable of bypassing negative influences, patterns, beliefs and Karmic debt, to manipulate light and vibration, and initiate an evolutionary restructuring of consciousness to align you with your truth and divinity.
