Download or read book I Might Regret This written by Abbi Jacobson and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the co-creator and co-star of the hit series Broad City, a hilarious and poignant collection about love, loss, work, comedy and figuring out who you really are when you thought you already knew. When Abbi Jacobson announced to friends and acquaintances that she planned to drive across the country alone, she was met with lots of questions and opinions: Why wasn't she going with friends? Wouldn't it be incredibly lonely? The North route is better! Was it safe for a woman? The Southern route is the way to go! You should bring mace! And a common one . . . why? But Abbi had always found comfort in solitude, and needed space to step back and hit the reset button. As she spent time in each city and town on her way to Los Angeles, she mulled over the big questions - What do I really want? What is the worst possible scenario in which I could run into my ex? How has the decision to wear my shirts tucked in been pivotal in my adulthood? In this collection of anecdotes, observations and reflections - all told in the sharp, wildly funny and relatable voice that has endeared Abbi to critics and fans alike - readers will feel like they're in the passenger seat on a fun and, ultimately, inspiring journey. With some original illustrations by the author.

Download or read book Unmasked written by Bernie Parent and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a city known as home to some of the sporting world's biggest stars, few have ever shined as brightly as the Philadelphia Flyers' Bernie Parent, and this autobiography shares how he became one of the most sensational goalies in NHL history. The catchphrase "Only the Lord saves more than Bernie Parent" became ubiquitous in Philadelphia as Parent won two Vezina Trophies as the league's top goaltender, two Conn Smythe Trophies as playoff MVP, and two Stanley Cup championships, but this work shows how his on-the-ice exploits were only a part of his amazing story. After suffering a career-ending eye injury in 1979, Parent's life took a turn for the worse, a time during which he battled alcoholism and watched his marriage end in divorce. In the end, however, facing the fears that had plagued him all his life led Parent to find solace and happiness once again. In "Unmasked," Parent traces his life and career from his days as a youngster learning to skate to his current role as a Flyers ambassador and public speaker. Featuring rare photos from his personal archive and accompanying text from legendary Philadelphia sports columnist Stan Hochman, this life story gives Parent's millions of fans a never-before-seen glimpse into the life of a hockey icon.
Book Synopsis The Jewish Community Around North Broad Street by : Allen Meyers
Download or read book The Jewish Community Around North Broad Street written by Allen Meyers and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002-07-30 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cradle of Jewish life in Philadelphia began with the establishment of the first synagogue, Mikveh Israel, in 1740. With the influx of many German Jews in the 1840s, the community expanded above Spring Garden Street into the Northern Liberties neighborhood. Urban settlement of Philadelphia's Jewish population during the last quarter of the nineteenth century shifted to North Broad Street when the economy improved for the city's residents after the Civil War. North Broad Street soon boasted two elegantly designed synagogues and the newly relocated Jewish Hospital from West Philadelphia. The Jewish Community around North Broad Street weaves the tale of the Jewish community in this part of Philadelphia through a collection of rare and stunning images. The construction of the North Broad Street subway in the 1920s and the row house Jewish community known as Logan are parts of this story. The development of business districts led to a more cohesive north and northwest Jewish community that allowed for satellite Jewish enclaves to flourish, complete with their own synagogues, bakeries, kosher meat markets, and hundreds of other shops that served the general population. In the 1950s, new neighborhoods, such as Mount Airy and West Oak Lane, alleviated an acute housing shortage at a time when 110,000 Jews lived in north-central and northwest Philadelphia.
Download or read book The Broad Road written by Ben Newell and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-09-21 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is hell real? Can a loving God send someone to hell? Who is going to heaven and hell? What did Jesus say about the Broad Road? Throughout time, every person who has ever lived has had to deal with the same question: what is going to happen to me when I die? Every civilization that ever existed has some kind of belief system about an afterlife. Unfortunately, many Christian churches today have totally abandoned what is clearly taught in the Bible. We spend much time and treasure (which Jesus commands us to do) on the earthly needs of others, but we are too timid to even mention that they are doomed for eternity if they reject Christ. Charles Spurgeon said, If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies: and if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay. This book uses allegory to depict a traveler as he converses with people as they journey on the Broad Road, unsuspecting as to where they are headed. If youre going to die someday or know someone who will, you should read The Broad Road. A good piece of work that needs to be heard by todays church. Timothy Beougher, associate dean, Billy Graham School of Evangelism at Southern Baptist Seminary.
Book Synopsis Life Behind Broad Street by : Michael Trinkley
Download or read book Life Behind Broad Street written by Michael Trinkley and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study reports on data recovery excavations conducted at five lots (number 85, 87, 89, 91, and 93) on the south side of Broad Street between King Street to the east and Meeting Street to the west. The work, conducted in 1996, was under the purview of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The lead federal agency throughout the project was the GSA. While a management summary was produced, the final report was not completed until now, over 20 years later. Historical research was conducted at not only those lots to be impacted by construction, but also those to be used as lay-down yards. The field investigations excavated 1,025 square feet (not including several thousand more feet monitored during stripping operations). Coupled with monitoring, this work allowed the investigation of 17 features, including three cisterns and five wells. Artifacts recovered span the period from about 1710 through 1920. Over 116,000 artifacts were recovered, more we believe than recovered from any urban archaeological investigation in Charleston. Perhaps most significantly, our work reveals that in spite of the decades of research conducted in Charleston and the significant advances made in understanding the city, there is still much unrecorded and unstudied variety that requires attention"--

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A big sweeping novel of friendship and marriage” (The Washington Post) by the celebrated author of The Prince of Tides and The Great Santini Leopold Bloom King has been raised in a family shattered—and shadowed—by tragedy. Lonely and adrift, he searches for something to sustain him and finds it among a tightly knit group of outsiders. Surviving marriages happy and troubled, unrequited loves and unspoken longings, hard-won successes and devastating breakdowns, as well as Charleston, South Carolina’s dark legacy of racism and class divisions, these friends will endure until a final test forces them to face something none of them are prepared for. Spanning two turbulent decades, South of Broad is Pat Conroy at his finest: a masterpiece from a great American writer whose passion for life and language knows no bounds. Praise for South of Broad “Vintage Pat Conroy . . . a big sweeping novel of friendship and marriage.”—The Washington Post “Conroy remains a magician of the page.”—The New York Times Book Review “Richly imagined . . . These characters are gallant in the grand old-fashioned sense, devoted to one another and to home. That siren song of place has never sounded so sweet.”—New Orleans Times-Picayune “A lavish, no-holds-barred performance.”—The Atlanta Journal-Constitution “A lovely, often thrilling story.”—The Dallas Morning News “A pleasure to read . . . a must for Conroy’s fans.”—Associated Press
Download or read book Food Trucks written by Heather Shouse and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With food-truck fever sweeping the nation, intrepid journalist Heather Shouse launched a coast-to-coast exploration of street food. In Food Trucks, she gives readers a page-by-page compass for finding the best movable feasts in America. From decades-old pushcarts manned by tradition-towing immigrants to massive, gleaming mobile kitchens run by culinary prodigies, she identifies more than 100 chowhound pit-stops that are the very best of the best. Serving up everything from slow-smoked barbecue ribs to escargot puffs, with virtually every corner of the globe represented in brilliant detail for authentic eats, Food Trucks presents portable and affordable detour-worthy dishes and puts to rest the notion that memorable meals can only be experienced in lofty towers of haute cuisine. The secrets behind the vibrant flavors found in Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches, Hungarian paprikash, lacy French crepes, and global mash-ups like Mex-Korean kimchi quesadillas are delivered via more than 45 recipes, contributed by the truck chefs themselves. Behind-the-scenes profiles paint a deeper portrait of the talent behind the trend, offering insight into just what spawned the current mobile-food concept and just what kind of cook chooses the taco-truck life over the traditional brick-and-mortar restauranteur route. Vivid photography delivers tantalizing vignettes of street food life, as it ebbs and flows with the changing demographics from city to city. Organized geographically, Food Trucks doubles as a road trip must-have, a travel companion for discovering memorable meals on minimal budgets and a snapshot of a culinary craze just waiting to be devoured.

Book excerpt: "Disun Falodun and his bosom friend--Ige -- are young boys growing up within the squeeze and squalor of Makoko. As they sit on the banks of the Lagos Lagoon, they contemplate life on the other side of town--the exclusive district of the Metropolis covering Ikoyi, Victoria Island, and, Broad Street--that mysterious area, so distant, yet so close. Disun is the optimistic of the duo, resolute in his faith in a fair chance at success in Lagos, his ordinary background notwithstanding. Ige, on the other hand -- held by a vibrant, radical mind-- reasoning that the expectation of a fair chance was utopian, entrenches himself in the firm belief that the only reliable choices open to them were illicit. Both set out on a life journey, after making a silent bet as to which of their opposed doctrines is superior."--Author's website.
