Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Washington Square Park was an iconic historical tourist attraction, with its music, songs, and counterculture inhabitants. The drug culture in the park during the '70s, '80s, and '90s was part of the draw for tourists and teens to the park. NSU II's scope of responsibility included Washington Square Park. Politicians and the police always turned a blind eye to the crowds and their drug use inside the park. The police officers assigned to NSU II were instructed not to enter the park at nighttime as it was too dangerous to patrol.Officer Robert McKenna, assigned to the NSU II, made regular solo sweeps through the park despite the warnings. This was when Officer McKenna first met Slim, a park drug dealer. Slim stood six feet and nine inches tall. He was a high school basket standout at the age of seventeen. Slim was given offers from over 350 college basketball scouts to have him play for their collegiate teams.Throughout his career in the NYPD, McKenna always gravitated back to Washington Square Park. He patrolled the park unofficially when he was assigned to the NSU II. A few years later, he was the park sergeant responsible for the day-to-day operations within the park. He was successful in ridding the park of drugs for the year he supervised the cops there. Then he was promoted to lieutenant and transferred to a Brooklyn precinct.Two months later, a scathing NY Times article showed how the drugs returned to the park in McKenna's absence.The police commissioner demanded that McKenna return to the park for a once and for all park cleanup.McKenna would arrest Slim at least thirty-two times during the next seven years.Slim grew old and sickly from his constant drug abuse while McKenna knew it was his time to retire from the NYPD, but Slim, via some media friends, asked to see the lieutenant one last time as he was dying of AIDS. McKenna granted the combatant his dying wish. Their meeting lasted over four and a half hours before Slim lost his battle with AIDS that night.This book is about Slim's final hours.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In his book, Dr. Mellow, a physician and clinical researcher, makes the case for faith, religiosity, and spirituality as important practices providing significant physical and mental health benefits. In reviewing the extensive medical literature, he concludes that faith and spiritual practices have significant positive effects on the incidence of the most common physical illnesses (heart disease, hypertension, many cancers, and most importantly, on overall mortality) as well as mental illnesses (depression, anxiety, addiction, and suicide). Given the record levels of diseases of despair in America today, especially in our younger generations, the health benefits of faith and spirituality should be of considerable interest to all of us.Dr. Mellow reviews the emerging medical literature on the effects of the major faith teachings, that of compassion, on our body's functioning at the basic cellular level. Compassionate practices result in positive changes in our gene function, decreasing the activity of the harmful inflammatory disease-causing genes, and decreasing the rate of aging of the cells in our body.There have always been reasons for the dislike or distrust of established faiths. Throughout history, many major atrocities have been committed in the name of religion, as they have at the hands of atheistic regimes. Sadly, that is human behavior. However, while one can find fault with some faith leaders and practitioners, faith teachings are difficult to fault. Given the health and societal benefits, Dr. Mellow presents information on how one might choose a faith community best suited for you and your family.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Christian Merrane has always been outgoing, popular, and adventurous. For as long as he can remember, his spirit has been one to force him into constant motion. He had always been curious to learn and fearless to accept any challenge. Throughout his life, he searched to find the answers he knew were kept hidden from him to define his place in the world, but in his efforts to learn his purpose, he often found himself facing reprimand for the daring actions he took to prove himself. Now facing those same unanswered questions he's always kept hidden within him as he approaches becoming an adult member of society, Christian finds alternative means to subdue the driving forces compelling him to act--means that lead him away from his true purpose in life--that is, until he is forced to face the one thing he fears the most. As he suffers through a loss he never could have prepared himself to endure, Christian finds himself on the edge of two paths--one that will lead him on a path of self-destruction and the other toward a path that will open his eyes and his heart to the answers he's been seeking. Although he faces influences pulling him away from who he is intended to be, others enter his life in the moments he needs them the most to combat the forces against him. And although help is within his reach, it is up to Christian to decide which road he travels.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'BIGTOPS to BILLBOARDS' follows the astonishing career of Colonel Burr Robbins beginning with rare, original letters from the Civil War frontlines and then Burr Robbins' promotion at twenty-seven to colonel in the Union Army.The war concluded in 1865, with his love of showmanship, He opened a cabaret theater in the boom and soon bust Pennsylvania oil rush which rapidly collapsed.Having briefly worked for the mid-west's largest traveling circus as a teenager before the war, he set his not modest goal on building a circus of his own in southern Michigan beginning with only two white hens dyed red and green and touted as 'the sacred fowl of India', one talented monkey, a young local dancing bear, a mule with an unusually broad head said to tell fortunes, one hawk (also colorfully dyed) and his own talents at singing, storytelling and advertising.Joining forces and networking with other small shows and signing on partners with major connections in the circus world, he built the Burr Robbins Circus into the third largest circus in America and changed the look of American towns and cities with his giant posters.It was a rough life moving a large circus and menagerie about the war-torn mid-west and across the Mississippi into Indian territories, but the circus was the only entertainment, and everyone came. By the mid-1880s Colonel Burr wanted to move on to greater projects and sold the circus to the Ringling Brothers who had not yet formed a significant show. The sale was completed in 1888.With his belief in poster advertising, he bought up most of the advertising companies in Chicago and formed the American Billposting Company which eventually turned into the giant General Outdoor Advertising Co. and retired a very rich man with oil fields in southern Kanas and hundreds of Chicago properties.The book is richly illustrated with 'cabinet card' photos of performers, animals, wonderfully exaggerated wording in circus advertising and much good advice on how to honestly make your way in the world from seemingly hopeless beginnings to fame and fortune.…
