This is the weight-loss story you don’t hear about. As LA’s most talked about radio personality, and a man that peaked the scale at 500-pounds, Big Boy shares his journey to the top, and for the first time gets real about his weight-loss to ensure people know the truth. This is the weight-loss story you haven’t heard. Despite growing up homeless, fatherless and facing more than a few problems with gang violence, Big Boy managed to rise to the top of the hip -hop world and west-coast radio scene. He had just one problem. Over the years, Big Boy was becoming a very big man. As he reached the pinnacle of broadcasting he just kept piling on the pounds until his weight scaled a truly scary 510 pounds. A bet with Will Smith for charity set him on the right path – but he’d need to do something much more drastic if he was going to get well. He’d have to learn to put himself first. It didn’t come easy. A radical surgical procedure took off the pounds, but it nearly killed him. Even with his health in turmoil, Big continued to entertain while fighting through the greatest struggle of his life. Now, in An XL Life, the joke song-singing, crank call-making, celebrity interviewing, wise-cracking, all around hilarious, humongous brotha behind the wildly popular morning radio program Big Boy’s Neighborhood shares everything he lived through and learned along the way.

The Writer

By: Big Adam

In the mountains of western North Carolina, a widowed mother lives with her only child, a son whom she bore as the result of being raped. She simply refers to him as 'The Writer' because of what he seems to do best in life. He has just graduated from high school and is finally redeemed from years of abuse and ridicule from his fellow peers who simply refused to understand his unusual, silent behavior as well as his deep devotion to serving God and following the footsteps of a man called Jesus. In spite of all that, he has managed to surround himself with a band of few but loyal true friends who build him up when he is weak and on the brink of losing faith. Not knowing what God wants him to do with his life after high school, The Writer is unaware that he is headed for disaster thanks to his unstable friendship with a rebellious youth named Rusty, a crazed pervert who is only out to deceive and hurt anyone he can, including The Writer, as well as ravaging any girl he can get his hands on. The Writer firmly believes that he can encourage Rusty to change his ways, despite the desperate pleas of protest from his mother, his friends, and Annie, his favorite girl who once dated Rusty and knows what a devious monster he is. Along with this, The Writer is struggling with the talent he is known for, having been unable to write due to the sudden changes in his life involving Rusty, graduation, and his uncertain future. Everything changes one night when The Writer brings in an injured stranger from off the streets. It is a simple and innocent act of charity that will forever change his life. The stranger takes The Writer on a memorable journey through life as he's never lived it before, ajourney that will come to a cruel and damaging end when Rusty unleashes his ultimate hatred and fury upon The Writer.

An XL Life

Staying Big at Half the Size

By: Big Boy

A rare three-time winner of the Marconi Awards, Big Boy (aka Kurt Alexander) is one of the country's biggest hip-hop DJs. Unfortunately, for a time he was big in every sense of the word, finally weighing in at 510 pounds. Busy with work, he opted for duodenal switch stomach surgery and shrank by over 250 pounds, but nearly lost his life. Not a diet guide but a probing memoir.

The Last Chicago Boss

My Life with the Chicago Outlaws Motorcycle Club

By: Peter "Big Pete" James,Kerrie Droban

A legend in the biker community, Peter “Big Pete” James was the most revered gangster in the Outlaw Nation. He first perfected his skills with the Hells Angels, the Outlaws’ chief rival, before persuading thousands of disgruntled members from splintered Outlaws chapters to unite. Together, they formed a powerful criminal syndicate involved in extortion, contract murders, drugs and arms trafficking, money laundering and assassinations. Then a shocking medical diagnosis knocked James sideways, forcing him to face a new life on the outside of the organization he built, dodging snitches, federal law enforcement, and contract hits. In The Last Chicago Boss, James provides a startling and unprecedented expose into the inner workings of the Outlaw Nation from the unique perspective of its renowned leader, all brought to life through never-before-revealed interviews, police files, wiretaps, recordings, and trial transcripts.

How to Duck a Suckah

A Guide to Living a Drama-Free Life

By: Big Boom

The Bodyguard for Women's Hearts returns with brand-new tough-love advice for satisfying relationships and spiritual fulfillment. Some women have become so accustomed to the games and manipulations of men that they are virtually sitting ducks for all the suckahs out there. Every woman has to be able to recognize Mr. Wrong before she lets him into her heart. True love is definitely out there -- you just have to know where to look. In How to Duck a Suckah, Big Boom -- a former pimp, player, and hustler -- draws on his own sordid past to help women avoid traps, demand respect, and live a drama-free life. His overall message of self-empowerment proves that you can't be happy with anyone else unless you are happy with yourself.

Traditional Chinese Medicine

The Human Dimension

By: Big Leung

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a great treasure of China's ancient history and culture. Written for health professionals, researchers, social scientists and educators, this book elaborates a view that TCM is embodied in diverse and complex human dimensions and meanings in Chinese culture. Encircling Cultural Meaning includes the TCM concept 'Qi', the holistic approach, which embodies culture in medicine. The book identifies intricate human dimensions of TCM in: the life stages of youth, adulthood and old age, as family connections, as identity, as balancing /harmonising life, as complementary and knowledge transmission roles. In particular, TCM is seen through the lens of leadership - as refining human relationships, as self, as moral practice, as good management practice, and as embracing the cultural environment. Underlying these categories, shared meanings are revealed, as well as core values and health beliefs in Chinese culture. The complex human dimensions of TCM are shown to be deeply rooted in social, cultural and historical contexts in the Chinese diaspora. The Spirit of Chinese Culture: its Human Centredness Conceptions of Leadership in Traditional Chinese Medicine TCM for Youth, Adults and the Elderly TCM in Family Connectedness Chinese Identity, Body Image and Gender Balance/Harmony/Knowledge Underlying Beliefs and Roles Social-Cultural Significance The author draws from and extends her PhD research on lived Chinese experiences and conceptions of TCM across diverse individuals, populations, two focus groups in Australia, and three focus groups in Macau and Hong Kong. Encircling Cultural Meaning reveals rich and profound values in Chinese culture manifested at all levels of life, including: the reciprocal care of filial piety, trust, respect, considerations for others, the quest for self understanding, and the strive for peace and harmony. These inner virtues in human relationships offers a soothing refuge and solution to the modern world which is often punctuated with imbalance, the overdependence on material acquisition, distrust, violence, and man's inhumanity towards man.

J.O.E.

By: Adam Big Adam,Big Adam

Be nice Mr. Giant...please." In an independent parish somewhere in the southern Appalachian Mountains, a new leader suddenly comes to power following the unexplained death of his father. Promising change to the tiny hamlet, he orders a new decree put into effect with zero tolerance for opposition. What follows are some of the most horrifying images Big Adam has ever created. For four young officers, the new decree is nothing short of a ghastly nightmare. When they are ordered to assist in expanding the boundary of the parish, they discover something living in the mountains that not only violates the new law but is something they learn should be left alone. When the ruler decides otherwise, an unforgiving and revengeful disaster is unleashed upon the town. Inspired by his favorite monster movie and the demented perceptions that exist in modern society, Big Adam's eighth novel is a simplistic vision of a brutal atrocity and genuine horror that must never become a reality.

Let's Get It On!

The Making of MMA and Its Ultimate Referee

By: "Big" John McCarthy

An intimate profile of the legendary mixed martial arts (MMA) referee, this first full-length autobiography of pop culture icon “Big” John McCarthy details every aspect of his life—from his strong-handed Los Angeles upbringing to his involvement in the naming of the sport, his role in its regulation, and MMA’s rise in stature. The narrative follows “Big” John through his 22-year career as a Los Angeles police officer, where he taught recruits arrest and control procedures as well as survival tactics, then his 15-year career as MMA’s premier official in the chain-linked cage. A fixture of the sport, “Big” John started refereeing at UFC 2 in 1994 when MMA was in its infancy and went on to officiate at every major UFC event but two until 2007. Following a one-year hiatus as a color commentator and on-camera analyst for MMA and boxing events, he returned to MMA refereeing in 2008. In his own words, "Big" John relates his insider’s perspective from the midst of many of the sport’s greatest moments—from Tito Ortiz–Ken Shamrock I at UFC 40 in 2002 to Randy Couture–Tim Sylvia at UFC 68 in March of 2007—along with his account of the birth of the sport in America, its evolution, and MMA’s ongoing struggles for acceptance.

Big Freedia

God Save the Queen Diva!

By: Big Freedia,Nicole Balin

From the eponymous star of one of the most popular reality shows in Fuse’s history, this no-holds-barred memoir and “snappily dictated story of inverted cultural norms in the wards of New Orleans” (East Bay Express) reveals the fascinating truth about a gay, self-proclaimed mama’s boy who exploded onto the formerly underground Bounce music scene and found acceptance, healing, self-expression, and stardom. As the “undisputed ambassador” of the energetic, New Orleans-based Bounce movement, Big Freedia isn’t afraid to twerk, wiggle, and shake her way to self-confidence, and is encouraging her fans to do the same. In her engrossing memoir, Big Freedia tells the inside story of her path to fame, the peaks and valleys of her personal life, and the liberation that Bounce music brings to herself and every one of her fans who is searching for freedom. Big Freedia immediately pulls us into the relationship between her personal life and her career as an artist; being a “twerking sissy” is not just a job, she says, but a salvation. A place to find solace and escape from the battles she faced growing up in the worst neighborhood in New Orleans. To deal with losing loved ones to the violence on the streets, drug overdoses, and jail. To survive hurricane Katrina by living on her roof for two days with three adults and a child. To grapple with the difficulties and celebrate the joys of living. In this eye-opening memoir that bursts with energy, you’ll learn the history of the Bounce movement and meet all the colorful characters that pepper its music scene. “Whether detailing the highs or the lows, Freedia’s tales pop as much as the booty that made her famous” (Out Magazine).

Ulwembu

A play

By: Empatheatre,The Big Brotherhood

An empathetic theatrical journey through the spider's web of addiction Danger stalks the township of KwaMashu, near Durban. It comes in the form of whoonga (known as nyaope elsewhere), a toxic mix of B-grade heroin, rat poison and other chemical components that almost immediately sucks its users into a vortex of addiction and the crime, deception and personal tragedy that goes with it. Caught up in the web, the ulwembu of the title (spider’s web in isiZulu), presided over by the dealer, Bongani Mseleku, are Lieutenant Portia Mthembu, a police officer in the frontline of the fight against the scourge; her son Sipho; his friend, Andile Nxumalo, and Emmanuel Abreu, a Mozambique-born spaza shopkeeper. As it traces Sipho’s descent from talented scholar and aspirant poet and songwriter to suicidal addict, Ulwembu explores the effects of addiction not only on those who suffer from it but on communities, families and the police, both those who try to control the murderous trade and those who benefit from it. Using a process they have dubbed Empatheatre, The Big Brotherhood, Neil Coppen, Dylan McGarry and Mpume Mtombeni, aim to share ‘people’s real-life stories, with the intention to inspire and develop a greater empathy and kindness in spaces where there is conflict or injustice’. Ulwembu is the dramatic result of their efforts.

Big Lake Valley

By: Big Lake Historical Society

A beautiful lake surrounded by virgin timber was enough for Dr. Hyacinthe P. Montborne to homestead here in 1884. He set up a shingle mill at Montborne in 1887, at the same time Hugh Walker was setting up a shingle mill in Walker Valley. With the establishment of the Seattle, Lake Shore & Eastern Railroad along the shoreline of Big Lake, the valley began to boom. The Day Lumber Company at Big Lake and the Nelson Neal Lumber Company at Montborne each established lumber mills. Their operations were far-reaching into the vast timberlands. With families homesteading near and far, the Finn Settlement, Ehrlich, Big Lake, Big Rock, and Baker Heights joined Walker Valley and the town of Montborne as communities. The mills are now gone, but the communities in the Big Lake Valley have survived, and generations of families, both old and new, continue to call it home.

Lee Roy's Heaven

Alpha to Omega the Metaphysical Story of a Young Dopeman's After Life Journey

By: Big Brother Earl Roberts

The author Big Bro. Earl Roberts like many others has been on a spiritual quest for understanding for many years. His new book (first novel) of spiritual fiction had been in the process of becoming for many years. Lee Roys Heaven is an attempt to convey to the masses the possibility of and necessity of people having more love and compassion in their lives. Perhaps, looking at some traditional religious doctrines in a whole new way and concluding that what we dont know about Gods truth is just as important as that which we believe we do know. This story of the adventures of a young (deceased) dope-seller tripping through his after death existence forces the readers to contemplate their lives, true love, forgiveness, patience and tolerance for other human beings that we judge as evil, sick with sinful natures, or strangely different then ourselves.

I Beg Your Damn Pardon - Was It Something I Said?

The Poetic Prose and Unchained Thoughts of a Contemporary Black Man

By: Earl Roberts Big Brother,Earl Roberts

We're proud to introduce a new, controversial, dynamic book featuring hard-ball prose, and social/racial storytelling delivered with deadly force - a Hell-fire and brimstone style. No other opinionated writer can stand up against the wit and versatility that comes through this obviously caring, unchained package af experiential thoughts and urban prose. "Engaging and clever as any recent radical Black writer, produced by the same concrete jungles that have given America Jazz, Hip-Hop and baggy pants, I Beg Your Damn Pardon literally kept both Blacks and Whites on our staff turning its pages and debating the serious issues raised - long into the night. "I Beg Your Damn Pardon is a red, black, and green-poetic magnum opus of "truth-telling," as echoed from the heart of a Black American. This book, this classic work, demands honest critique and an open mind, as the contents slam us into the often hidden face of Black folk. Sometimes it's an angry face, still standing in the shadows of prejudice and hate holding an "alley-apple" (a red house brick) used for throwing at one's enemies. Alley-apples can hurt us as projectiles when thrown at us, but this book is a well-composed, hard-hitting canon. Definitely a must-read. Just know when to duck!" -Big Brother Earl Roberts

Let's Get It On!

The Making of MMA and Its Ultimate Referee

By: "Big" John

Combining elements of mystery, history, and romance, this compelling narrative explores the river frontier of West Virginia to the Midwest in the 1900s. Unconventional for her time, Sarah Perkins is driven to excel and be successful in a man’s world despite her traumatic childhood under an abusive father who strictly enforced traditional gender roles. Dreaming of one day being a riverboat pilot, Sara embarks on an adventure aboard the Spirit of the River, a premier paddleboat on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. She’s spent hours behind the wheel under the supervision of the captain, Jeremy Smith—her friendly rival and romantic interest—and longs to prove her worth. When a traveling troupe of entertainers, Le Théatre d’Illusion, discovers that a cast member has suspiciously disappeared while a mysterious and deadly illness afflicts the rest of the passengers, Sarah will find herself tested in unimaginable ways. Suspenseful and thrilling, this dynamic novel of hidden secrets offers an unflinching look at serious issues such as alcoholism, suicide, and gender, while maintaining a lively storyline full of adventure, independence, and life on the river wild.

Piikuni

Land of the Natural Flow

By: William Big Bull

I wish to pay homage to our people who have suffered through hardship and strife in a land of plenty, I have fortunately been exposed to our history and recent historic events that need to be put down on paper or they will be lost. I will qualify this statement, by writing this book as a first hand observer and participant as a niitsitapiikowan. The many hours of quality time spent in the natural environment and travelling down the roads with our senior experts of niitsitapyapii (the Real ways) has given me a rare privilege to be schooled and ultimately corrected on thinking I believed I knew something about. Through our relatives; history has tied us to significant events that have shaped our present political and social way of life as a people. I come from a unique history and background in an era of time that experienced the most significant changes in the America’s, by sitting down and capturing my thoughts, it will lead the reader into a connection with my ancestors and help to explain how events and circumstances have changed our way of life as a people.
