Book Synopsis Nobody's Perfect by : Armando Galarraga
Download or read book Nobody's Perfect written by Armando Galarraga and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2011-06-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Detroit Tigers, an umpire, a pitcher, and a mistake—one of the “classic, human, baseball stories” (Ken Burns, creator of the PBS mini-series Baseball). The perfect game is one of the rarest accomplishments in sports. In nearly four hundred thousand contests in over 130 years, it has happened only twenty times. On June 2, 2010, Armando Galarraga threw baseball’s twenty-first. Except that’s not how it entered the record books. That’s because Jim Joyce, voted the best umpire in the game in 2010 and 2011, missed the call on the final out. But rather than throwing a tantrum, Galarraga simply turned and smiled, went back to the mound, and finished the game. “Nobody’s perfect,” he said later in the locker room. “You might think everything that could have been said, replayed, and revealed about that night has already been uttered, logged, and exposed. You would, however, be as wrong as the unfortunate Mr. Joyce” (The Detroit News). In Nobody’s Perfect, Galarraga and Joyce come together to tell the personal story of a remarkable game that will live forever in baseball lore, and to trace their fascinating lives in sports. The result is “a masterpiece”, an absorbing insider’s look at two careers in baseball, a tremendous achievement, and an enduring moment of pure grace and sportsmanship (The Huffington Post).
Book Synopsis They Call It a Game by : Bernie Parrish
Download or read book They Call It a Game written by Bernie Parrish and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the book the NFL thought they had buried! Bernie Parrish’s account of the 1964 World Championship — the last time the Cleveland Browns won it all – is an unauthorized history of the NFL by a most unconventional player. The most controversial sports book ever written, this bestselling book was the first to expose the NFL owners symbiotic relationships and connections with Organized Crime and illegal gambling. The only thing that’s changed since its original publication are the dollar figures involved …now they’re exponentially bigger! “Eight years of playing and nine years of activity in the players union have convinced (Parrish) that the hierarchy of the NFL is a basket of snakes. As St. Patrick swept Ireland clean of wriggly reptiles by flinging his bell at them, so Parrish hopes to change the leadership of the league by brazen clangor of a no-holds-barred book, They Call It A Game.” -Life Magazine A national bestseller and a Literary Guild Book of the Month Club selection

This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated, a much-needed call to action for every parent, teacher, and citizen to help our children and stop the wave of killing and violence gripping America's youth Newtown, Aurora, Virginia Tech, Columbine. Thereis no bigger or more important issue in America than youth violence. Kids, some as young as ten years old, take up arms with the intention to murder. Why is this happening? Lt. Col. Dave Grossman and Gloria DeGaetano believe the root cause is the steady diet of violent entertainment kids see on TV, in movies, and in the video games they play—witnessing hundreds of violent images a day. Offering incontrovertible evidence based on recent scientific studies and research, they posit that this media is not just conditioning children to be violent and see killing as acceptable but teaching them the mechanics of killing as well. Stop Teaching Our Kids to Kill supplies the statistics, interprets the copious research that exists on the subject, and suggests the many ways to make a difference in your home, at school, in your community, in the courts, and in the larger world. In using this book, parents, educators, social-service workers, youth advocates, and anyone interested in the welfare of our children will have a solid foundation for effective action and prevention of future Columbines, Jonesboros, and Newtowns.

Book excerpt: "Ari Galper's Unlock The Game is the greatest sales breakthrough in the last 20 years." Brian Tracy, Founder of Brian Tracy International Stop selling, start creating trust. If you flick through the pages of typical sales books and sales training material, you will find a constant flow of sales messages like, "Focus on closing the sale", "Overcome objections", "Be relentless", "Accept rejection as a normal part of selling", "Use persuasion to get useful information about your prospects", and "Chase the sale". In short, get the sale at the expense of the human relationship. For the customer, this approach is transparent and all too familiar. Crossing social boundaries and adding pressure to the sales process makes it a gut-wrenching and painful process. There is a much better way to succeed in selling - moving away from the hidden agenda of focusing on making the sale to a place of complete trust and authenticity. When you arrive at this place, it opens up a whole new world of sales opportunities for you and your business. In other words, when you stop "selling" and start building authentic relationships based on trust, authenticity and integrity, the possibilities are endless. Ari Galper, The World's #1 Authority on Trust-Based Selling, and founder of Unlock The Game, the most successful trust-based selling approach adopted by thousands of business owners and sales consultants worldwide, has dramatically changed the way millions of sales transactions are made today. In his new book "Unlock The Sales Game", he directly challenges all the selling "rules" that are considered status quo thinking among most small and large businesses and provides a new and authentic sales mindset -- along with his very powerful trust-based languaging -- that is taking the sales world by storm. Here's a sampling of what you'll discover: Seven Ways to Cut Loose from Old Sales Thinking How to Sales Call Using Your Right Brain - So You Can Make Selling Enjoyable and Productive Seven Steps to Selling Follow-Up Seven Ways to Stop Chasing Decision Makers How to Recognise and Diffuse Hidden Pressures in Selling The Surprising Truth About Selling - Three Selling Myths and Why They Hurt You No More Selling Scripts?
