Download or read book Stay Cool written by Mark Pucci and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stay Cool is perhaps a polemic. Better yet, it is the song of the underprivileged. Either way, here is a book that mixes both of these elements celebrating only those things which are vital to our happiness. Indolent and content, Mark Pucci thoroughly enjoys a bohemian lifestyle. Elevating art above the superficiality of materialism, he leads a humble life filled with the wealth of poetry, music, family and friends. Yet all of this is threatened after a conversation with a wealthy eccentric who lives vicariously through Mark's talent as a writer. Seduced by the prospect of making some extra money, unable to afford to fix a nagging toothache, Pucci is tempted by the prospects of fame. From the recurrence of the shadowy young kid who reminds him to "stay cool" to the many episodic events that unfold throughout the story, he is constantly drawn inward. Perhaps the most surprising part comes at the end in Pucci's efforts to bring love to two lonely individuals while in the wake of his own self-discovery. His achievement is the ability to focus beauty on the ordinary gifts we commonly take for granted all across America.

Download or read book 406 written by Joseph J. Badowski and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a historical fiction that I have written about the 1960 baseball World Series, specifically about game 7 of that series, that many baseball experts feel was the greatest game ever played in the history of Major League Baseball. The seventh game of that World Series was played on a sunny fall day on October 13, 1960, at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. On that date, around 3:00 p.m., Bill Mazeroski, the second baseman for the Pirates, hit a walk-off home run in the top of the ninth inning to win the game. On the second pitch thrown by Yankee pitcher Ralph Terry, Mazeroski hit a ball over the 402 sign in left field, which gave the Pirates an improbable and almost miraculous win over the heavily favored New York Yankees. This home run was the highlight of the many strange and dramatic plays that took place during game 7, which makes that game one for all ages and one that would make for an excellent script for any Hollywood movie. This book, however, is about more than the 1960 World Series. It is also about two nine-year-old boys who meet each other in the summer of 1960 and who become close friends, united by not only baseball but also by a crisis that plagues one of the main character's family. Daniel Pryzinski and Adam Brodziak are the two fictional characters in this book who meet each other by chance during the summer of 1960. Daniel lives in the Polish Hill section of Pittsburgh, while Adam lives in a small rural coal-mining town in western Pennsylvania, sixty miles from Pittsburgh. The two meet each other by chance when Adam's family is invited to stay with Daniel's family while they are attending a Polish Festival in Pittsburgh. While staying with the Pryzinski family, the Brodziaks discover a dark secret. Daniel's father, Peter, is an alcoholic whose drinking problems are so bad that it threatens to destroy the Pryzinski family. Daniel's mother, Pauline, is desperately trying to hold the family together but is on the verge of leaving her husband. She is a devout Catholic, so that decision was one that she did not want to make. Besides, she loved her husband so much that she was willing to do anything to help him recover from his drinking problem. Through the intervention of the Brodziaks and their family doctor, Tom Slevic, they are able to convince Peter to admit himself to an Alcohol Rehab Center in Somerset, Pennsylvania. Although the focus of this book is the seventh game of the 1960 World Series, it is the relationship of the fictional characters that will show the reader how reliance upon family and friends and hope in God and faith can serve to change the lives of so many whose loved ones are affected by alcohol or other types of addiction or substance abuse.

Download or read book Pine Hill written by Les Gallagher and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pine Hill, originally known as Clementon Heights, became a borough in 1929. It was aptly named by Johanna Burton for its many pine trees and hills. Known in the early years as a health retreat, city doctors would send patients to the area's lakes to rest and enjoy the healthy springwater, fresh air, and hot sands. As word travelled, Pine Hill became a destination for families looking to spend a day away from the city. Stecky's lake and restaurant on Cloverdale Avenue was a popular resort until fire destroyed it in the early 1930s. People from Philadelphia and surrounding areas would travel by trolley and taxi to reach the area. Cars rarely made the trip, as they would require help getting up the steep hill between Clementon and Pine Hill. Cars would have to travel backward up the hill because they had no fuel pumps. Pine Hill is the highest point in South Jersey, and the Philadelphia skyline can be seen from the Pine Hill Golf Club, which was once Ski Mountain ski area.
