Abel Bodied by Michael Cloherty Pdf

If I were to ask you where the first bank robbery murder took place in the United States, your mind would naturally travel to the Old West.But the first murder during a bank robbery actually occurred in Malden, Massachusetts on December 15, 1863. And the perpetrator was far from a famed gunslinger. However, he was someone just as dangerous - a desperate opportunist.Edward Green, the town's postmaster, through disease in his youth, limped through life, one leg shorter than the other. Edward lived far beyond his means, mismanaging the funds for which he was responsible. A newlywed with a child due in mere days, he sought out any solution he could find to solve his debt, retain his position and provide for his family.Frank Converse, the young bank teller across the street, was all alone, a pile of cash in plain view. The temptation to solve his problems all at once was too strong for the postmaster to resist. He shot Frank twice and stole the money.William Shiloh was born a free man in Delaware but by the end of the 1850's, he was not certain he would remain one much longer. He fled north with his growing family to Malden and opened a barbershop. William saw Edward as the last man to exit the bank before the murder and robbery was discovered,A righteous man, yet a reluctant witness. He fears the townsfolk won't believe him for the mere fact that he is not one of them. He is an outsider. The color of his skin also makes him worry that an accusation directed toward a white man as the criminal might instead fasten the guilt squarely upon himself.William's main priority, as it has always been, is to keep his family safe and the best way to accomplish that, he believes, is to not bring any undue attention on to himself. Yet his conscience struggles with the dilemma of what is safe for him - and what is just for the family of the murdered Converse boy and the frightened people of the town.

Abel by D.B. Riley Pdf

This is the story of Abel Myers, an award winning journalist, who is on a quest to become sober. Not only is he fighting the disease of being an alcoholic he is also trying to resurrect his writing career. After bantering with his editor, Abel settles on writing an article about a traveling evangelist. This encounter challenges Abel to re-evaluate his own faith walk. In the story Abel, alcohol is emblematic of any sin that prevents us from experiencing God in His fullness. Examples of these sins are many: anger, fear, jealousy, cravings, addiction, or judgment of others, un-confessed sin and so on. These sins stand between us and God; blocking us from the beauty and fullness of His love. Sadly, we are much like Abel when it comes to confessing our relationship to a sinful habit. We are prone to think that it is a manageable thing. In fact, we most often refuse to acknowledge that we are sinful at all. Join Abel as he struggles to become both sober and saved, and he does it not a minute too late. As he will soon find out, time is not on his side.

Cain v. Abel by Dan Ornstein Pdf

Enter the packed courtroom and take your seat as a juror on the Cain v. Abel trial. Soon, the prosecution and defense attorneys (angels from Jewish legend) will call Cain, Abel, Sin, Adam, Eve, and God to the witness stand to present their perspectives on the world’s first murder. Great Jewish commentators throughout the ages will also offer contradictory testimony on Cain’s emotional, societal, and spiritual influences. As jurors, when we mete out Cain’s punishment, must we factor in his family history, psychological makeup, and the human impulse to sin? In this highly eclectic and gripping compilation of insights by Jewish commentators on the Cain and Abel story, courtroom scenes are juxtaposed with the author’s commentary, advancing novel insights and introspection. As each of us grapples with Cain’s actions, we confront our own darkest traits. If Cain is a symbol for all humanity, what can we do to avoid becoming like him? Furthering this conversation, Rabbi Dan Ornstein includes a discussion and activity guide to promote open dialogue about human brokenness and healing, personal impulses, and societal responsibility.

Abel Kiviat, National Champion by Alan S. Katchen Pdf

Abel Kiviat (1892-1991) was one of track and field’s legendary personalities, a world record-holder and Olympic medalist in the metric mile. A teenage prodigy, he defeated Hall of Fame runners before his twentieth birthday. Alan S. Katchen brings Kiviat’s fascinating story to life and re-creates a lost world, when track and field was at the height of its popularity and occupying a central place in America’s sporting world. The oldest of seven children of Moishe and Zelda Kiviat, Jewish immigrants from Poland, Abel competed as "the Hebrew runner" for New York’s famed Irish-American Athletic Club and was elected its captain. Katchen’s engaging biography centers Abel Kiviat’s life and his sport firmly in the context of American social history. As a quintessential New Yorker, Kiviat embodies the urban and ethnic roots of American track. From his first schoolboy competitions on city playgrounds, to his world records at Madison Square Garden, to his pioneering role as track’s press steward in the age of emerging media, Kiviat’s life reveals how his sport was shaped by the culture of the emerging metropolis. New York City is not only the setting for these developments but also a subject of the book. The narration is enriched with brief portraits of celebrated track athletes including Kiviat’s Olympic roommate, Jim Thorpe. In addition, Katchen offers a detailed account of the I-AAC’s evolution, including its close ties to the Tammany Hall political machine, and sheds light on the rapid modernization of the sport and the ways it provided a vehicle for the assimilation of working-class, immigrant athletes. Finally, Katchen explores the social origins of the ideology of amateurism and its devastating impact on Kiviat’s career. Kiviat died at ninety-nine, just months short of carrying the torch for the opening ceremonies of the Barcelona Olympics. Abel Kiviat, National Champion pays tribute to a remarkable athlete and the sport during its most dynamic and celebrated era.
