Download or read book Baseball is America written by Jr. Baltov and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BASEBALL IS AMERICA explores America's Pastime through a trilogy of books: "A Child of Baseball" bats leadoff. Baseball, the bellybutton of society is a metaphor for America, acting both as its direction and reflection. Baseball is America, America is baseball. American history, embracing its religious past as a Christian nation, and baseball history, including its synthetic enhancement precedent, is traced through a tapestry of time in a life story format. Born into the Glory Days of New York baseball in 1955, baseball provides the author both identity and meaning. Narrative backdrops track both Reds and Yankee baseball, making historic stops over a 100+ year timeline. A 40+ year playing career is traced from 1962 Edison Little League through 2005 Roy Hobbs World Series in Edison's winter home (Fort Myers). Symbolism, baseball-speak, numerology, simile, nickname, euphemism and metaphor applications create a thought provoking and intriguing word sleuth effect exploring topics deep down in places we don't talk about at parties. Satire and cynical humor stragically integrated buffers acid discussion of controversial issues. Sixties youth ball is viewed and described through a Garden State lens. Seventies ball scenery drastically switches to the Sooner State while the 80's, 90's and new millenium take on a Lone Star State flavor with Space City the focal point. Pop culture, American history (including its Christian nation history) is tactically incorporated into the read. Baseball remains the only venue in America where religion can be pitched into public square casual conversation without being debased as a "nut-job" or being shown the door. The read displays no reservations of informally discussing topics from both Creator-based and man-based religious perspectives. The events surrounding the 1919 World Series, that the Reds accidentally won, are retold through the lens of a Cincinnati native who actually voted present, the author's grandpa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to build an affordable hot rod following the advice of the masters! In How to Build Affordable Hot Rods, author and lifelong hot rod aficionado Tony Thacker takes you through the process of building a hot rod on a budget. Drawing on his own extensive experience of both buying and building rods, Thacker explores the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good was setting a land speed record at Bonneville, the bad was buying a rod from which the previous owner had "swapped out" the good engine, and the ugly--well, let’s just not go there. How to Build Affordable Hot Rods includes extensive how-to sections that cover step-by-step chassis builds for Model A, 1932, and 1936 Fords, including front- and rear-end setups. The in-depth chassis builds are complimented with sections on powertrain choices, bodywork and roof chops, wheels and tires, and wiring and paint. Also included are chapters on interiors and the all-important details that individualize any project to ensure that it stands out from the rest. When Henry Ford introduced his beloved Model T, he unwittingly gave the average person the means to go racing. Prior to the T, racing was mostly a sport of the rich, but that changed with the Model T. Stripped of fenders and hopped up with speed parts, T speedsters ruled, and it wasn’t long before enthusiasm on the track translated to the street and the term hot rod entered the vernacular. Of course, it didn’t need to be a Ford (and still doesn’t), but the easiest and therefore cheapest route to Hot Rod Boulevard is down the Ford road. The journey accelerated after World War II, as hot rodding boomed with the growth of speed shops, car shows, drag racing, talented and trained GIs returning home, and the launch of Hot Rod magazine to spread the gospel far and wide. More than 100 years after the original Model T, hot rodding remains alive and well in the Australasia, Europe, and (of course) its birthplace the US.

Book excerpt: Superhero phenomena exploded into 20th- and 21st-century popular culture by way of the visual medium of comic books. In an increasingly secular (yet spiritual) culture that has largely renounced “the gods” (and even religion), what does the return of the superhero through our own pop cultural mythologies say to us—or even about us? This collection of essays from leading and up-and-coming scholars in the fields of comparative mythology and depth psychology considers the return of the superhero as representative of our own unique emergent modern mythology: a wildly diverse pantheon that reflects back to us our most far-reaching hopes and (im)possible (super)human desires. In placing the interpretive tools of comparative mythology and depth psychology alongside the comic book phenomenon, a super-powered palette emerges that unveils the hidden potential of modern readers’ own heightened imaginations. The essays in this anthology examine select comic book and superhero characters from the “Silver Age” 1960s through contemporary 21st-century adaptations and innovations, as readers are invited to discover and uncover what the (re)emergence of these perennial gods and goddesses have to say about our own secret super selves today.

Download or read book Consuming Pleasures written by Daniel Horowitz and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is it that American intellectuals, who had for 150 years worried about the deleterious effects of affluence, more recently began to emphasize pleasure, playfulness, and symbolic exchange as the essence of a vibrant consumer culture? The New York intellectuals of the 1930s rejected any serious or analytical discussion, let alone appreciation, of popular culture, which they viewed as morally questionable. Beginning in the 1950s, however, new perspectives emerged outside and within the United States that challenged this dominant thinking. Consuming Pleasures reveals how a group of writers shifted attention from condemnation to critical appreciation, critiqued cultural hierarchies and moralistic approaches, and explored the symbolic processes by which individuals and groups communicate. Historian Daniel Horowitz traces the emergence of these new perspectives through a series of intellectual biographies. With writers and readers from the United States at the center, the story begins in Western Europe in the early 1950s and ends in the early 1970s, when American intellectuals increasingly appreciated the rich inventiveness of popular culture. Drawing on sources both familiar and newly discovered, this transnational intellectual history plays familiar works off each other in fresh ways. Among those whose work is featured are Jürgen Habermas, Roland Barthes, Umberto Eco, Walter Benjamin, C. L. R. James, David Riesman and Marshall McLuhan, Richard Hoggart, members of London's Independent Group, Stuart Hall, Paddy Whannel, Tom Wolfe, Herbert Gans, Susan Sontag, Reyner Banham, and Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown.

Download or read book Morris written by Art Isaacs and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-01-03 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who Is Morris? Morris takes a journey through several generations of a remarkable and resilient family, following them over more than 60 years, chronicling how they dealt with growing up in the face of loss, adversity, and tragedy, as well as with triumph. The result of editing together numerous personal journals, Morris documents their individual experiences of life, love, and relationships as they struggled to gain acceptance, fight discrimination, and overcome the attitudes and prejudices of their times with regard to race, gender, ethnicity, sexual preference, and politics. Beginning in the summer of 1965, this starts as a school assignment made to a then-teenaged Jessie Peterson as he made a point of constantly complaining to everyone about how boring and backward life is in his sleepy small town on the Florida Panhandle. Jessie dreams of when he would be able to get away and see the world, but circumstance and the reality of his family’s needs conspire against those dreams and set up obstacles, as he endures to build his own life and tries to find happiness. He then encourages his daughter as the next generation to begin chronicling her own life and the issues that she faces, which she then passes on to her children as they come of age to do the same, even as we continue to follow Jessie, his siblings, their families, and their extended families from their teens to adulthood, to being parents, and eventually as grandparents. When at one point an adult Jessie is asked whom he has been writing his journal to, he replies, “If not to myself, I would be writing to Morris.” Hence the title. A nonspeaking character, Morris is part of everyone’s lives and stories, contributing to the overall context and continuity without writing or uttering a single word. But he is as much a member of this family as anyone else. He’s always there silently, as part of the thread that helps weave the fabric of all their lives and adventures together. But just who is Morris?

Following a divorce he takes a new job and moves to a new city where he meets Grace, a much younger woman, whom he falls in love with. After two happy years together, Ray and Grace relocate again, this time to Washington, D.C., where Grace can pursue her career in the defense industry. The couple rent a condo owned by a secret service agent away on assignment. Everything is proceeding normally until Ray discovers a 35-millimeter camera with film still inside of it, hidden in the back of a cabinet. When he jokes that they should develop the film and see what's on it, he gets a firm rebuke from Grace. But eventually Ray's curiosity gets the better of him. Without Grace's knowledge, he has the film developed. What he discovers plunges them both into an international intrigue involving the FBI, CIA, and Britain's MI6. Following a trail that uncovers international espionage, corruption at the highest levels of government, and a major assassination plot, Ray's loyalties to his adopted country, and even his relationship with Grace, are tested, as he risks his life to unravel the conspiracy surrounding The Photograph. Born in a quiet backwater in rural England, Keith Manton enlisted in the British Royal Navy at age 15 where he grew up fast as he travelled the world. His post-naval career in the agricultural chemicals industry led him to immigrate to the U.S. Currently residing with his wife in Atlanta, he is previously the author of the autobiographical work The Naked Pilgrim.

Download or read book Orange County Choppers (TM) written by Paul M. Teutul and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 2003, Lady Luck reached out to a hard-living, hard-working family in a small town in Orange County, New York. That was when a team from the Discovery Channel began filming the custom chopper shop of Paul "Senior" Teutul, his son Paulie, and the rest of their highly dysfunctional, totally authentic crew as they did what they do best: make great custom-crafted bikes from the ground up. Within a few episodes, the Teutuls were famous: for their hilarious head-butting, their outrageous yelling, their amazing designs, and, most of all, for being real every step of the way. With their hit show American Chopper turning into the Discovery Channel's top-rated program, the Teutuls became unlikely national icons. Now the Teutuls tell their story as it has never been told before. Senior chronicles his harrowing journey from a hell-raising teen to a star-crossed businessman desperately trying to keep his demons at bay. And Paulie remembers working by his father's side in their ironworks shop-and the bond that developed between them when they first built an EVO-powered custom chopper from scratch. From youngest son Mikey's entrance into the shop to all the other members of the extended OCC family, this is a chronicle of Panheads and Softails turned into gleaming works of art, of Old School design versus Paulie's amazing theme bikes that took custom biking by storm-and earned the Teutuls some of the most famous clients in the world. With over 60 family archive photos that capture this true rags-to-riches saga, Orange County Choppers is the raw, honest story of a family that was born to be wild, how they came together around a shared passion and skill-and how they captured the heart of America.

Book excerpt: The road before her is twisted.She is looking for them. A doctor. A lawyer. A murderer. They are somewhere out there, in front of her, where the roads wind and wander, where routes end and new avenues begin. There is a map beside her, but she stopped following that long ago. Some journeys have no blueprint. There are turns and detours, dead ends and tricky mazes. The labyrinth called America is a tricky turnpike to travel.She knows just two things as she stares into the white blizzard that nearly obscures the winding street in front of her. There was a beginning. She started this journey in San Diego, but it really all began long before that. Others were on this quest before she joined the pilgrimage east. And there will be an end. But the end isn't so easy as the beginning. The way may become long and dangerous. One can become lost. How many ever get to the place where they belong?Some paths take one to a place of wonder: a location made of wishes and ambition, a better place than home. Many people work hard to get to these ends. Some work for it their entire lives. And then there are the places one finds when they lose their way: scary places fraught with foreignness and ferocity. Most folks end up there without really meaning to. But some actually search it out. They head down that one-way road with reckless abandon.There are each of these types before her, somewhere along the long course: A doctor. His wife. A murderer.And Janet Dice has to follow the twisted road to find them.
