Green Day: Rebels With a Cause by GillianG. Gaar Pdf

Rebels With A Cause is an in-depth account of Green Day's 20-year journey from their scrappy high school band days to international stardom. It's a punk-roots journey told through incisive interviews and first-hand accounts that expose as much about the music scene as the band members themselves! From their 1994 major label debut album Dookie to the award-winning American Idiot, Green Day have now successfully taken the spirit of punk into the world of stadium-rock. Written by Gillian G. Gaar, this intimate and perceptive band biography tells exactly how they did it and reveals what success has meant to these feted Californian champions of alternative rock.

American Silhouettes by Christian Beres Calmejane Pdf

This is Volume I of two volumes. American Silhouettes is primarily a study in human character in its dealing with the adversity of life. The setting is America during the last quarter of the twentieth century. More specifically it focuses on the struggle of two generations of a small African American family whose destiny encounters more than its share of horrific tribulations. It is a window on life, love, happiness, suffering, and death of the members of this small vulnerable resilient family from the South, that moves to Washington, D.C. for a better life, only to find a very short interlude of happiness, followed by a deep plunge into another cycle of trauma and despair; not death though, that would be too easy; and when death finally does come, it is a liberation of the body and soul. The saga continues with the cycle of misfortune repeating itself in a new age, a new generation with the same finality as if their destiny had been wickedly predefined. From Bridgeville SC to Washington DC, and from Rome to Dakar, their saga brings to light the evil and virtuousness of man in its most natural occurrence, as a part of daily life. The story brings together various individuals of different and sometimes opposite background and describes either the passions of their encounters or the clashes resulting from their conflicts. It analyses the most wonderful passions of love, beauty and happiness, and juxtaposes the horrible ugliness of hate and abuse. It incorporates the duty and responsibility of man within the context of our society and dwells into the aberrations of its marginal sector. It is an interweaved matrix of emotional extremes. It demonstrates that evil has no color, no race, no religion, and that it transcends the social fabric of our society.

Bridge Jumping by Kathleen Ready Dayan Pdf

This is a journal of empowerment. The book of my rebirth. Paige Delaney -- misfit, rebel, heretic -- dies at the age of forty, leaving a cast of characters to deal with her cremation ashes, some willingly and others begrudgingly. The ashes have been divided into twelve vials. Her family and friends -- each with a different spiritual viewpoint -- venture forth from the funeral with the ashes in hand. Through their eyes, as they scatter them, we get to know Paige, and through her own journal entries, we learn about their relationships from her perspective. Their unique beliefs influence their opinions about her and where the ashes should be released. Whether we are devoted religious practitioners, new agers or atheists, our belief systems influence us all. At a time when religious clashes impact all our lives, how do we find common ground? Are there as many paths to the Creator as there are people on this planet?

Harrold's Choice by John Philbric Hasty Pdf

It's 2010. In North Georgia, a 44-year-old owner of a convenience store in the County Seat town of Clearmont is a divorced man with a shady past. Disillusioned with his life without a purpose, he sells his store in its prime location to an Indonesian Cartel. They remodel it into one like their other 250 stores scattered throughout the South. Harrold is surprised when he learns the buyers are Muslims. The six-year-old daughter of the Muslim family that moves into the store's annex is killed in a tragic hit-and-run accident on the highway in front of the store. Law authorities never discover the killer. Harrold Holden, now Clearmont's mayor, learns the killer's identity but cannot reveal the secret. In an unpredictable event, Saudi Arabian oil money builds a large Islamic complex near Clearmont City. The result is an invasion of thousands of Muslims into the region's traditional culture. The result is catastrophic! Bloodshed follows. This culture clash has severe repercussions on traditional Christianity and especially on Mayor Holden and his new religious beliefs. Some might say his life has a heartbreaking ending in 2045. Others say just the opposite. What do you say?

Take Down by Amin Suluki Pdf

Some may say that the Italian Mafia no longer exists or that they do but lost their power and influence since the take down of the Dapper Don, John Gotti. But if you were to ask Jahmeel, a New Yorker from the heart of New York City, or Billy Joe, a half-Italian country boy from the backwoods of Alabama, they will tell you that those statements are far from the truth. In fact, they would tell you that not only does the Mafia still exists, but they also are more powerful now than ever before. So will Jahmeel and Billy Joe, both of whom suffered tremendously at the hands of the Mafia and who experienced a clash of cultures upon meeting each other, be able to hash out their differences to take down this common enemy? Or is it an impossible task? Join in as millions of readers pry into the mind of Amin Suluki, author of Right Back at You, to unveil the existence of an Italian crime family still operating in America today.

Too Late to Die by Bill Crider Pdf

Everyone knew her. A lot of them like her. One of them killed her. Jeanne Clinton was a pretty and well-liked woman—though in her younger days she'd been known to be a bit wild. But she married an older man and settled down to a quiet, respectable life. Now she is dead, brutally murdered in her home. Dan Rhodes, the thoughtful, hard-working sheriff of Blacklin County, Texas, has enough to worry about already: a rash of burglaries in town and an election coming up against a hot-shot opponent. Now he's got to find a killer among the residents of his little town—a wily killer, bound and determined not to be caught. The deeper Rhodes digs into the hearts and minds of his neighbors, the more secrets he turned up...and the more violence he encounters. But Rhodes doesn't give up easily. And neither does the killer.
