He attended all his schooling in the San Diego area, graduated from High School in 1984. After doing many prison terms, drugs, and everything that comes with growing up in and living the Gang Life, Nano retired from that life, attended College and earned an Associate Degree in Business Management & Accounting. Nano grew up in a world that seemed normal at first but in time, evolved into a very dangerous one, where drugs, violence, betrayal, and prison rule the day, with horrible and sad deaths. One can easily give up hope in life. When a gang runs the streets of your once quiet neighborhood, families can be broken or destroyed. Nano, once a promising young boy was faced with many of these obstacles, became a drug user, and a violent gang member. He saw the madness unfold around him, and he was written off by society and his family. But through inner strength and the advice and mentorship of a couple of good men in his life, he was able to leave his old ways and become the productive citizen of society everyone is meant to be. There is hope, you just have to want to find and keep it. Today Nano has been over 25 years drug free and lives a quiet life away from the mean streets in the Barrios of Southeast San Diego with his youngest son. After working numerous jobs since his release from prison, Nano now works for an environmental company in the Hazardous Materials Industry for the last 15 years. • “...I’ve known Nano for many years, I knew a little about his past. I had no idea the extent of the violent life he lived. He’s come along way.” C.

Book Synopsis A Year Like No Other by : Ryan Underwood
Download or read book A Year Like No Other written by Ryan Underwood and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University that was at the heart of the research to discover the vaccines for the pandemic pens the story of how it all happened. In 2020, as COVID-19 threw the U.S. higher education system into turmoil, university administrators around the country debated whether it was prudent—or even possible—to teach students in person or conduct laboratory research amid a once-in-a-century pandemic. For the leadership at Vanderbilt University, the answer to the question was a resounding Yes. Viewing residential education and collaborative research as essential to its academic and societal mission, Vanderbilt was one of a small number of America’s top universities to put rigorous safety protocols in place to allow students, faculty, and research personnel back to campus in the fall. Told with recollections and insights from Vanderbilt’s leaders, students, faculty, and staff, and moving at a pace matching the events it describes, A Year Like No Other takes readers from Vanderbilt’s near-shutdown in the spring through its reopening for the 2020–2021 academic year, providing an inside look at how the university coped not only with COVID-19, but also with a tragic night of tornadoes and the urgent calls for racial justice following the killing of George Floyd. A Year Like No Other also highlights some of the vital contributions that faculty at Vanderbilt and Vanderbilt University Medical Center have made to the development of COVID-19 vaccines and therapies, with research fueled in part by Dolly Parton, the beloved country music legend. A Year Like No Other captures a singular moment in the university’s history while delivering a concise portrait of successful crisis management playing out amid the fast-changing circumstances of global health threats and a barrage of local hardships.
Book Synopsis Books for Idle Hours by : Donna Harrington-Lueker
Download or read book Books for Idle Hours written by Donna Harrington-Lueker and published by UMass + ORM. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publishing phenomenon of summer reading, often focused on novels set in vacation destinations, started in the nineteenth century, as both print culture and tourist culture expanded in the United States. As an emerging middle class increasingly embraced summer leisure as a marker of social status, book publishers sought new market opportunities, authors discovered a growing readership, and more readers indulged in lighter fare. Drawing on publishing records, book reviews, readers' diaries, and popular novels of the period, Donna Harrington-Lueker explores the beginning of summer reading and the backlash against it. Countering fears about the dangers of leisurely reading—especially for young women—publishers framed summer reading not as a disreputable habit but as a respectable pastime and welcome respite. Books for Idle Hours sheds new light on an ongoing seasonal publishing tradition.

It is the story of a street gang that became a community organization, supported by private foundations and corporations and dedicated to social, economic, and political development.
