Jack is certain he will die if sent overseas but feels he has little control over the course of his life. His parents want him to interview for career-oriented jobs, just like his father, but this is not the life Jack seeks. In order to find his way—his own way—he must get away from his family and land on his own two feet. Jack leaves the United States and goes to live in Berlin with a college friend. He yearns to find out who he is and what path his life should take. Experience becomes Jack’s teacher when he buys a BMW motorcycle and drives from Berlin to the south shore of Crete. To become his own man, he resolves his personal demons and faces challenges, all with the help of the open road.

Shadowbahn by Steve Erickson Pdf

A LA TIMES' BEST BOOK OF 2017 (FICTION) "A beautiful, moving, strange examination of apocalypse and rebirth.” - Neil Gaiman "Erickson has mobilized so much of what feels pressing and urgent about the fractured state of the country in a way that feels fresh and not entirely hopeless, if only because the exercise of art in opposition to complacent thought can never be hopeless." - New York Times Book Review A chronicle of a weird road trip, a provocative work of alternative history, and a dazzling discography of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, encompassing artists from Louis Armstrong and Billie Holliday to Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, SHADOWBAHN is a richly allusive meditation on the meaning of American identity and of America itself. "Jaw-dropping," says Jonathan Lethem (Granta).

Boomer Destiny by Tom Osenton Pdf

The U.S. experiences a major crisis about every eighty years, and the last big crisis started more than eighty years ago. If history is any indicator, argues author Tom Osenton, we are in the very early stages of the next major crisis—one that could make the Great Depression seem like a day at the beach. The storm clouds are on the horizon: A slowing U.S. economy, major banks failing, a weakening dollar, the subprime mortgage debacle, a widening gap between the wealthy and working class, credit delinquencies and bankruptcies on the rise, infrastructure crumbling, healthcare in crisis—the list goes on and on. Baby Boomers, says Osenton, are standing precisely where FDR stood at the beginning of the Great Depression, and they are in a unique position to help pull society out of the morass and set the country on a course of growth and contentment for generations to come. It's no wonder that most young people do not feel they will be better off than their parents. Besides a looming economic crisis, we face a number of other crises: budget deficit, environmental, real estate, infrastructure, education, immigration, and healthcare. Now throw in some unforeseen wild cards such as terrorism, war, disease, poverty, homelessness, and natural disasters, and you have a recipe for a cataclysmic, multi-generational failure that will take decades and trillions of dollars to fix. Boomers are about to move into the role as the elders of an America desperate for leadership. It will be Boomers who take responsibility for directing us through the minefield of crises that will profoundly shape the U.S. for decades to come. It will be the Boomers' responsibility—and their destiny and legacy—to lead the U.S. through a thicket of issues that have been back-burnered by at least the last five presidential administrations. Full of solutions to seemingly intractable problems, Boomer Destiny shows how they can do it.

Brokenness and Reconciliation by Christian Danz,Marc Dumas,Werner Schüßler,Bryan Wagoner Pdf

Too often we see reality in black and white, overlooking nuances that require the discernment of tensions between the brokenness of our world and our desires for reconciliation. Yet the gap between wounding words and actions and the hope for acts of reconciliation can lead to even more violence and despair. The authors of this volume explore these tensions and the valences of ‘brokenness’ and ‘reconciliation’ in Paul Tillich’s thought. Together, they contribute to a richer understanding of the thought of the German American theologian and philosopher, his commitments, and the constructive interpretations his work can induce for us today. Think of the ruptures and efforts of dialogue among divided Christian churches, or the commitment of the social worker; reflect on how love as agape, or the courage to be, can be at the heart of this constructive work; or consider the reconciliation processes of peoples torn apart by violence, to mention a few contributions from this volume. Collectively, these contributions raise the hope of a Tillichian creative justice, a hope that can stimulate a broad audience to go beyond the superficiality and instantaneity of social media to something deeper, more enduring, and transformative.

Affirmed and Alydar by Timothy T. Capps Pdf

The greatest rivalry in modern Thoroughbred racing history began with little fanfare on June 15, 1977. The more experienced Affirmed defeated Alydar, who was making his racing debut in the Youthful Stakes at Belmont Park. In nine subsequent meetings, Affirmed got the better of Alydar six times, often by just inches. Their meetings, especially during the Triple Crown season of 1978, became the stuff of racing lore. Affirmed claimed the Triple Crown, but Alydar tested him to the limits each time in stirring stretch drives that left onlookers limp. Indeed, many racing historians consider their Belmont Stakes to be the greatest race of the twentieth century. Author Timothy Capps, who witnessed many of the Affirmed–Alydar races, chronicles their early years, first encounters, and epic clashes. He also tells the stories of the people who raised, trained, and rode these titans.

The Cadineag Crisis by Paul A. Moore Pdf

After decades of climate crises and pollution on earth, humanity discovers a planet that could hold the potential for a new home for humanity. A young and ambitious science journalist named Maria Southwind is selected to cover the mission and given exclusive access. Upon arrival to the ice-covered planet, Cadineag, the brilliant, but exiled scientist (Steven Cobi) discovers an abundance of life already present. As the away teams begin to explore the planet, problems and issues mount because of the unexpected lifeforms. Shortly after touching down, away team members begin to die from a mysterious disease that appears to unzip the very fabricate of their DNA. As more and more members of the fated mission pass away, Maria, by order of her superiors, covers up the deaths and problems in her worldwide reporting. Eventually, all images, messages, and data from the mission stop arriving on Earth and everyone is assumed lost. As the lies and covers ups of the failed mission become public knowledge, Maria becomes the scapegoat for her superiors and is disgraced. Years later, a mysterious probe from that very mission is discovered in the Arctic and Maria is called back into duty to help figure out what happened to that team. From memory modules and files, Maria discovers that the Cobi figured out that all of the life on Cadineag is part of a giant DNA seeding experiment by an alien collective known as the Gailonians. The Gailonians, afraid to share the universe with the products of their experiments, are now systematically using a virus to wipe out all of the advance lifeforms across the universe. The very last transmission from Cobi indicated that Earth was next, and it was up to Maria to stop the Gailonians and save life on earth.
