Book excerpt: The book is an inspirational, motivational and biographical account of an African American girl seeking to compete at elite levels of competitive swimming. It begins with her first experience in summer league competition and ends with her competing at the Division I level of NCAA Swimming Championships and the U.S.A. Olympic Trials. The story is a journey through early schooling intertwined with competitive experiences. The twist and turns, up and down of early experiences help motivate the young athlete. Experiences are interesting and varied and provide avenues for reflection and assessment. Motivational aspects when coupled with desire, determination, dedication, and hard work are powerful tools used to reach goals and objectives. One unique aspect of the story reveals the working relations between parent/coach and child as she pursues her dream and mission. Multiple motivating techniques and fatherly advice provide for interesting dialog between parent and child through early schooling, theatrical pursuits, and other interesting childhood experiences. The biographical account focuses on one age group swimmer's attempt to reach heights and levels of accomplishment which seem impossible. As Kelley moves from one level of competition to another new challenges present themselves. Meeting these new challenges and overcoming them all to achieve her goals and objectives provide interesting commentary to the journey.

Editor Rabbi Daniel Cohen has compiled essays from twenty leading rabbis in North America and Israel to reveal how the gold standard of living well can be reached in the modern world.

In this book, new insights on amplifying these values in your life are provided. One person who lived these values every day was Lester Gold. Mining for Gold: Essays Exploring the Relevancy of Torah in the Modern World is a tribute to his life and the timeless values he embodied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whenever I see a girl with a gold bikini, I think of Princess Leia. Here on the Gold Coast, gold bikinis are common, so I think of Princess Leia a lot. Eighteen-year-old Olivia Grace has deferred her law degree and ducked out of her friends' gap-year tour of Asia. Instead, she's fulfilling her childhood dream of becoming a private investigator, following in the footsteps of Nancy Drew and Veronica Mars - who taught her everything she knows, including a solid line in quick-quipping repartee, the importance of a handbag full of disguises, and a way of mixing business with inconvenient chemistry. Playing Watson to the Sherlock of her childhood friend, detective agency owner Rosco (once the Han Solo to her Princess Leia), Olivia pursues a routine cheating husband case from the glitzy Gold Coast to Insta-perfect Byron Bay, where she faces yoga wars, dirty whale activism, and a guru who's kind of a creep. Olivia Grace is a teenage screwball heroine for the #metoo era, and The Girl with the Gold Bikini>/em> is a body-positive detective romp, rich with pop-culture pleasures.

Book Synopsis A Year of Glory and Gold by : Kevin C. Kearns
Download or read book A Year of Glory and Gold written by Kevin C. Kearns and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2023-08-17 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1930s in Ireland is often thought of as a bleak period of economic stagnation and unemployment. But 1932, hailed by the Irish Press as a 'new era', was an early glimmer of the modernity and success Ireland would later reach: a sequence of events and achievements that included technological advances in travel, agriculture, home appliances and entertainment; Olympic gold medals and the meteoric rise of boxing phenomenon Jack Doyle; a spectacular Eucharistic Congress; sweepstakes and a so called gold rush; as well as the election of Éamon de Valera and transformations in politics and culture. The soundtrack scoring all this change was the jazz craze, which landed in Ireland in the early 1930s and flourished throughout the country, loosening the conservative social and moral order of the time. Jazz brought new forms of dress, lifestyle and behaviour, exciting and exhilarating a younger generation for the future, while leaving an older generation wary of such rapid change. A Year of Glory and Gold is an energetic and exuberant biography of a bright year in Ireland's history, combining deep archival research with spirited storytelling by one of Ireland's best-loved social historians.

But how did they ever get to such a foreign and distant land in the first place? For Twinks it was an easy decision - to escape her mother's match-making attempts she sets out to visit her old friend, Begonia Guiteras, who lives in Jalapeno, which is fortuitously on the doorstep of an Aztec dig Twinks wants to work on. Unfortunately, her visit coincides with the War for Jalapeno Independence, headed by Colonel Henriquez Guiteras, Begonia's father. At the same time, Twinks's excavation of the Aztec site is revealing the exciting prospect of a hoard of Conquistadors' gold - but will taking it away from the burial ground unleash the dreaded Curse of Attatotalloss? Into this confusion stumbles Blotto, who only comes to Mexico as he's missing his sister. On being reunited with Twinks they then discover Begonia has been kidnapped by Mexican government forces and both set out to rescue her. This leads to many chases and challenges across the Mexican countryside, resulting in the capture of the twins where death by firing squad seems inevitable... but will trusty chauffeur Corky Froggett, as so very often in past adventures, be able to save the day?
