Two houses, two people, one truck. Love stories are the things that girls dream about; the hopes they carry with them for a lifetime. So it is with some regret to inform you, that if you are looking for that kind of story; maybe you should put this book down. Because this is far from fantasy, far from a fairytale, and nothing like what you want it to be.If small towns in movies existed; this would be the town that people would fear to drive by when traveling. A town that is 50% dirt and dust, and 50% corruption; where living feels like something you just do instead of dying. Being born here means that you will never leave. And it feels like the townspeople are there to make sure of it.Jesse is a prostitute. When she isn't working at the local diner she helps her mother with her clients that come from not only all over town but all over the world. Having never known her father, she walks about the world with a sense of disheartened hope that maybe one day she will be able to leave the town; to pick up and never come back. And as of late, that's the only thing that has kept her alive. Well, that and her best friend.Connor has been abused his entire life. When he's not being burned by cigarette's and hit with tire iron's; he spends his time with his only friend in the entire world, Jesse. She is the only consistent person in his life other than his father, and she has always been his rock. The one person that was supposed to stay in his life and protect him from the world has taken off without so much as a goodbye and he knows nothing about what it is like to have a normal family...or consistent meals every day of the week. Where are you supposed to go when your whole existence is nothing but a big regret?

Equal pay for equal work? It all works out by the end, right?While the rest of the world unknowingly sat on the threshold of home computers and the Internet, I helped build some of that telecommunications infrastructure. That career choice rebuilt me including my frame of mind. After naively majoring in software, computer programming, I secured a job. In that technology, the guys weren't totally ready for me to 'break the ceiling.' I landed in that field when society still believed that math and logic skills were born in men, only. In short, my narrative takes you down my career path and memory lane in an extremely exaggerated fashion, or does it? While reading this hysterical, I mean historical novel, keep in mind that I might have made it all up. Some of my ex-management and employers might suggest that I exaggerated. If you agree with those guys, that becomes their exoneration from the 'group of men behaving badly' that I refer to as 'the good ole boys'.My goal is to give the reader a glimpse of the past- my past. In briefs, I mean in short, I'll allow the court of popular opinion to decide the merits of my case against some, but not all, men.

Als im Jahr 1987 ein Antrag auf Ausreise aus der DDR gestellt wurde, setzte das Ministerium für Staatssicherheit all seine Hebel in Bewegung, um den Antragsteller irgendwie der Öffentlichkeit zu entreißen und hinter Gitter zu bekommen.Doch der Antragsteller machte nichts Verbotenes, und so mußten zwei Wörter in diesem Antrag herhalten.Das Ergebnis war nicht nur eine lange Gefängnisstrafe, sondern auch die Zerstörung zweier Leben.Dieses Buch schließt an den ersten und zweiten Teil an, es kann aber auch ohne Kenntnis dieser beiden Teile gelesen werden, denn es ist inhaltlich abgeschlossen.Dies ist der dritte und letzte Teil.1. Teil: Naumburg: nach einer wahren Begebenheit2. Teil: Torgau: nach wahren Begebenheiten3. Teil: Karl-Marx-Stadt: nach einer wahren Begebenheit

"Hi, my name is Jeff, and I'm a Coke addict. (a Diet Coke addict to be specific) It has taken me 46, 47, 48, (good God will I ever finish this darn book?) 49 years to get here and it hasn't been a picnic. Mark Twain said "Giving up smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I know because I've done it thousands of times". I can honestly say that giving up Coke is just as easy. This is the opening line to an entertaining look at my lifelong addiction to Diet Coke. The stories are entirely fictitious, written in the style of a memoir. I bring the reader on an enjoyable and humorous journey from my humble roots as the seventh of eight children, through my twenty year military career, my entrepreneurial phase, all the way to my mid-life crisis career change from junior executive to park ranger and the role Diet Coke played at every stage.The books concept is ridiculous and absurd, creating an undeniable curiosity for the reader. Right out of the gate the reader is caught off guard by the seriousness of the title, "My Life as a Coke Addict", yet it is in the humor section. Throughout the book, I treat my love of the carbonated concoction of pure pleasure as a true addiction, only occasionally alluding to the ridiculousness of my passion.

Marocco Dall'incipit del libro: Lo stretto di Gibilterra è forse di tutti gli stretti quello che separa più nettamente due paesi più diversi, e questa diversità appare anche maggiore andando a Tangeri da Gibilterra. Qui ferve ancora la vita affrettata, rumorosa e splendida delle città europee; e un viaggiatore di qualunque parte d'Europa sente l'aria della sua patria nella comunanza d'una infinità d'aspetti e di consuetudini. A tre ore di là, il nome del nostro continente suona quasi come un nome favoloso; cristiano significa nemico, la nostra civiltà è ignorata o temuta o derisa; tutto, dai primi fondamenti della vita sociale fino ai più insignificanti particolari della vita privata, è cambiato; e scomparso fin anche ogni indizio della vicinanza d'Europa. S'è in un paese sconosciuto, al quale nulla ci lega e dove tutto ci resta da imparare. Dalla spiaggia si vede ancora la costa europea, ma il cuore se ne sente già smisuratamente lontano, come se quel breve tratto di mare fosse un oceano e quei monti azzurri un'illusione. Nello spazio di tre ore, è seguita intorno a noi una delle più meravigliose trasformazioni a cui si possa assistere sulla terra.

I thought he'd always be mine, even when I was forced to say goodbye. We were never meant to let go, but it happened anyway. Too bad I didn't know someone was waiting to take my place, or I would've held on a lot tighter. Two years later, we were exactly where we'd always planned to be.I'd kept my promise. He'd forgotten all about his.Not only had he moved on, but the person he'd moved on with was my best friend, leaving me to begin college with a broken heart. I guess this is the part where I'm supposed to tell you some other guy stepped in, repaired my shattered pieces, and made me smile again. This isn't that kind of story.My heart might have been broken, but it refused to fall out of love.

In this remarkable book, prolific writer and lecturer Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky delves into the ocean of Torah and brings up bits of fabulous treasure.The essays the essays span the Jewish year, from Rosh HaShanah to Tishah B'Av, in which the themes of the Jewish calendar spring to life. They tell of the remarkable lives and deeds of great men, such as Rav Aaron's own father, Reb Bentzion Lopiansky, Rav Chaim Shmulevitz, Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel, Rav Nochum Partzovitz, and Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv. They present timeless issues such as the chareidim and the draft, modern-day Jewish marriage, negotiating with kidnappers, and comparing the completing of the Talmud with competing in the Olympics. It is a rare work that profoundly delights even as it teaches and inspires. Time Pieces is such a book."In our mundane world, feeling and intellect are forever at odds. But when it comes to the Divine, these seemingly mutually exclusive realms converge, since Hashem is one... No professor of Jewish thought ever had tears coursing down his cheeks, overwhelmed by the depth of Shir HaShirim... One who has experienced that spark of knowledge and awareness arising from those divrei Torah [derived from in-depth exploration of the Torah] knows that no Minchah can ever be the same again."-From the Introduction to Time PiecesAn esteemed friend, who reads critically, once put the question into much sharper focus. Upon evaluating an essay of mine, he commented, "It's nice, but will anyone daven a better minchah because of it?" An important question, and one that must be answered fully. Life is too short for things that are merely "nice"; if they don't move a person closer to his Creator in any significant way, then one should not waste one's time on them.

HUMA: LIFE & POEMS Translation & Introduction Paul Smith Merwan S. Irani, known world-wide as Meher Baba, took Huma (Phoenix) as his takhallus or pen-name when he composed enlightened ghazals in a mixture of Persian, Urdu, Hindi & Gujarati in his twenties as a realized disciple of the Qutub or Perfect Master Upasni Maharaj, and also later on. He knew the ghazals of Hafiz by heart as did his father the dervish Sheriar Irani, who had originally walked to Pune in India from Khooramshah in Iran. Merwan went on to reveal himself as Perfect Master (Qutub) and later also declared himself as the Rasool or Messiah (Avatar). The correct rhyme-structure has been kept as well as the beauty and meaning of these important beautiful, inspiring, mystical poems.
