Ohio State University's remarkable 2012 season--and the beginning of a new era at the Big Ten school—are recalled in this fascinating account. It tells the story of Urban Meyer, who accepted the job as head coach at Ohio State just before the NCAA banned the Buckeyes from postseason play in 2012, rendering them ineligible for the Big Ten Championship and bowl games. Meyer ultimately rose to the challenge of motivating a group of players to commit to the program despite the ban, and the book recounts what turned out to be one of the most remarkable seasons in Ohio State's 123-year history. Filled with never-before-revealed details about Meyer and the 2012 season, this surprising and entertaining record provides a complete picture of the new age at Ohio State.
A definitive guide to the sacred place trees hold for cultures around the world, exploring the natural history, folklore and symbolism that give each genus of tree its unique character and fascination. Throughout time, trees have stood as sentinels, wise yet silent, patiently accumulating their rings while the storms of history have raged around them. Trees and humankind have always had a symbiotic relationship. Throughout the centuries trees have offered us shelter from the cold and the heat. They have provided us with a multitude of nutritious fruits, leaves, flowers and roots for food and medicine. They have given us wood with which to make our tools, weapons and toys, not to mention timber for houses, fences, boats and bridges. But perhaps most significant of all, trees have provided us with fuel for fire, which, once it was tamed hundreds of thousands of years ago became the engine of civilization. Trees are our strongest allies. The Living Wisdom of Trees is a richly illustrated guide to the cultural significance of 55 trees, from Acacia to Yew, looking in particular at their botanical characteristics; their place in world myth, magic and folklore; their healing properties; and their practical contribution to society. Featuring beautiful hand-drawn evocative illustrations, The Living Wisdom of Treesis for all who seek acquaintance with the fascinating lore and the profound spiritual wisdom of trees.
The Ohio State Buckeyes, one of the most storied college football programs in the nation, have a rich and colorful history that spans more than a century. In Buckeye Madness Ohio native Joe Menzer tells the exhilarating story of the Scarlet and Gray from the days of Woody Hayes in the late 1960s to Jim Tressel and OSU's recent national championship. In the fall of 1968, Hayes's Buckeyes went 10-0 and won the national championship—a feat that the Buckeyes wouldn't repeat until January 2003, when an underdog OSU team upset the heavily favored Miami Hurricanes in an epic double-overtime national title game. In between those championships, scores of outstanding players took the field in Ohio Stadium, such as the legendary Archie Griffin, the last (and likely the only) player to win the Heisman Trophy twice. Ohio State fans will enjoy Menzer's descriptions of such Buckeye greats as Rex Kern, Chris Spielman, and Heisman winner Eddie George, among many others, along with his accounts of some great, and not-so-great, Ohio State teams in recent decades. Menzer explains how the game has changed in the years since Woody Hayes called the plays, and especially how the coaches themselves have had to change as concerns about off-the-field activities grew in importance. Hayes's immediate successors—Earle Bruce and John Cooper—were very different personalities from the incendiary Hayes; Tressel is a throwback to the Hayes era in many ways, yet he must deal with different issues as dictated by the changing times. But as Buckeye Madness makes clear in some unforgettable anecdotes, one thing will never change: the Ohio State-Michigan game remains the greatest rivalry in college football, a date circled months in advance on calendars in Columbus and Ann Arbor.

Game of My Life Ohio State Buckeyes by Steve Greenberg,Laura Lanese Pdf
A. J. Hawk can isolate the game of his life, the 2006 Fiesta Bowl against Notre Dame, not because of individual statistics, but because of what the game represented. “I think the fact that it was the end of an amazing four years—four big Bowl wins; three Michigan wins; lots of victories in those four years; and an amazing group of teammates and coaches—is why it felt like the game of my life,” Hawk said. Jan White has a different reason for the game of his life: He scored his first touchdown as a Buckeye, playing a position he didn’t necessarily want to play. “It became a footrace I was determined to win,” White says of his 72-yard reception from Rex Kern against Northwestern in 1968. Whoever they are and whatever the reason, there always is “the” game in a player’s memory bank. The folks, whose stories are chronicled in Game of My Life Ohio State Buckeyes, tell you why a certain game was the best, providing the detail, the color, and the emotion that only a player can share. Football fans, most especially those card-carrying members of Buckeye Nation, will be enlightened and entertained by these stories. Buckeye greats such as Archie Griffin, Cris Carter, Mike Lanese, and Bob Hoying relive their legendary moments—from the sidelines to the huddle, from the depths of impending defeat to the pinnacle of glory. It just doesn’t get any better.
"Flutter by" began just as its name implies ... with the sharing of little flutters of thought among co-workers and friends. The messages fluttered into their lives quietly and with serenity ... much like the Monarch butterfly -- a personal favorite of mine. My daily messages include a prayer and oftentimes a short story or quotation to show how that reflection applies to our lives and to our humanness. They revolve around the people, places, and particulars in my world -- which are pretty much the same as those in yours. My prayer is that this book helps you through each day with a flutter of thought, a breath of calmness, and a reflection for peace, love, and endurance. I pray that these little thoughts help you smile and see the true beauty of God's touch in each day -- even in those filled with sorrow. For, as we flutter by, we flutter on. Through Flutter by, you'll meet my husband Howard (often referred to as Ole Buckeye ... Ohio State is his alma mater.); our daughters Diane and Lori; and, of course, Chaplain Ditrick the Third (our Shetland sheepdog). Most times, "Chap" concludes my prayerful thoughts with a flutter of his own. They usually involve "treats." As a hospital chaplain, I got to know and become close to many of the staff, especially the nurses. One friend in particular was going through a very difficult time in her personal life. She faced continuous challenges and difficult decisions. Often, she confided that she didn't know how or even if she would get through it all. Each time that we talked, I came away feeling that I wanted to be so much more than someone who listened. I wanted to do something to ease her pain. I asked God to guide me to an answer to calm her burden. On one particularly busy day, I knew that our paths would not cross, but I wanted my friend to know that I was thinking about and praying for her. I wrote her a quick little prayer and sent it off through the inner-office mail. (This was before computers ) A few days, later, I sent another prayer ... then another ... and another. When we met up several days later, she thanked me again and again. She told me how much those little prayers meant to her and how she looked forward to receiving them. She asked if she could share them with friends at the hospital. I was touched and said of course From there, the "prayer" mailing list grew to over 300 co-workers and friends. (Thank goodness computers came along ) May you flutter by others as you have fluttered by me.
