Every Night's a Saturday Night

The Rock 'n' Roll Life of Legendary Sax Man Bobby Keys

By: Bobby Keys,Bill Ditenhafer

A great romp that is almost more of a history of modern rock than it is a look at the life of Bobby Keys. That also makes it an enjoyable and fascinating read for anyone who loves classic rock, as well as for folks who grew up on the genre." —Fortune Born in Slaton, Texas, Bobby Keys has lived the kind of life that qualifies as a rock 'n' roll folktale. In his early teens, Keys bribed his way into Buddy Holly's garage band rehearsals. He took up the saxophone because it was the only instrument left unclaimed in the school band, and he convinced his grandfather to sign his guardianship over to Crickets drummer J.I. Allison so that he could go on tour as a teenager. Keys spent years on the road during the early days of rock ‘n' roll with hitmakers like Bobby Vee and the various acts on Dick Clark's Caravan of Stars Tour, followed by decades as top touring and session sax man for the likes of Mad Dogs and Englishmen, George Harrison, John Lennon, and onto his gig with The Rolling Stone from 1970 onward. Every Night's a Saturday Night finds Keys setting down the many tales of an over–the–top rock ‘n' roll life in his own inimitable voice. Augmented by exclusive contributions with famous friends like Keith Richards, Joe Crocker, and Jim Keltner, Every Night's a Saturday Night paints a unique picture of the coming–of–age of rock 'n' roll.

How it Came to be

The Boyd Family's Contribution to African American Religious Publishing from the 19th to the 21st Century

By: Bobby L. Lovett

This book is the intriguing story of the development of religious publishing in the African American context. It examines R.H. Boyd's seminal dream of providing Christian education literature for former slaves and their families in an attempt to fulfill God's call on his life and the desire to close the educational gap that existed in the African American community. The story covers four generations of leadership that have resulted in three one-hundred-year-old institutions that work together to elevate Black life in America: R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation/National Baptist Publishing Board, Citizens Bank, National Baptist Congress.

Three Steps to Heaven

The Eddie Cochran Story

By: Bobby Cochran

(Book). Outrageously talented, remarkably handsome, internationally renowned, and dead at the age of 21. More than 40 years after the tragic car crash that killed him, Eddie Cochran remains one of rock and roll's most lamented "What Ifs." A trailblazing guitarist, gifted vocalist, hit-making composer and arranger, and budding whiz-kid producer, Cochran quickly ascended from Midwestern obscurity in the late '50s to become one of nascent rock and roll's leading lights. He penned or recorded many of the most recognized songs in rock history "Summertime Blues," "Nervous Breakdown," "Somethin' Else," "C'mon Everybody," "Twenty Flight Rock," "Sittin' in the Balcony" songs whose distinctive sound and defiant, often wryly humorous lyrics have been eagerly digested, analyzed and lovingly reinterpreted by generations of rockers after him, from The Beatles to the Sex Pistols, The Who to U2. Three Steps to Heaven: The Eddie Cochran Story co-authored by Cochran's nephew, also a gifted musician is the first American biography of this uniquely American rock legend, who was among the first to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The book is a detailed portrait of Cochran's personal and professional triumphs and travails, with fascinating insight into the rock pioneer's life that only a family member can provide. 33 B/W photographs; Hardcover.

Mt. Washington

Mt. Washington

By: Bobby K. Darnell

When pioneers first ventured off the Wilderness Road in the late 1700s looking for a more direct route to Louisville, they came upon a pleasant area between the Salt River and Floyd's Fork. It provided rich soil for farmland, virgin timber for building, plentiful game, and numerous springs. As roads from Bardstown to Louisville and Shepherdsville to Shelbyville and Taylorsville were forged, the area was nicknamed "The Crossroads." In 1818, the community was named first Mt. Vernon and then Mt. Washington. The town grew tremendously, outgrowing all of its neighboring cities in Bullitt County for decades. As many as five hotels existed in the mid-1800s, and a private school named Mt. Washington Academy, greatly praised as "The Athens of this Place," drew students from miles away.

Reincarnation, Oblivion or Heaven?

A Christian Exploration

By: Bobby Bose

What is death? Why do we die? and what happens after we die? Over the centuries, philosophers and theologians of the world’s religions have offered answers to the dilemma of death, yet this subject is rarely given the detailed attention it deserves in the contemporary Christian church. As Christians, how does our view of death impact the communication of the gospel in today’s pluralistic societies? In this study, Dr Bobby Bose not only develops a solid biblical theology of death, he also reviews the teachings of contemporary and historical Christian theologians around the world, and examines the “state-after-death” beliefs of Hindus, Muslims and Secular Humanists. The author shows that “state-after- death” was a central component of conversation in the early church, and is also a major component of God’s mission to rescue humanity. As the East converges with the West, it is vital that Christians develop a missiological approach to “state-after-death” that will encourage positive engagement with people of other faiths and beliefs.

Beyond the Robe

Science for Monks and All It Reveals about Tibetan Monks and Nuns

Beyond the Robe

Science for Monks and All It Reveals about Tibetan Monks and Nuns

By: Bobby Sager

Twelve years ago, the Sager Family Foundation, the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives, and the Dalai Lama's private office began a groundbreaking program called Science for Monks to teach Western science to Tibetan monks and nuns. Recently, Tenzin Gyatso, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama announced a decision by the leaders of the monasteries to make the study of Western science part of the core curriculum required of all monastic scholars in the Gelug tradition. Beyond the Robe tells the story of the decade long development of the Science for Monks program and what it reveals about the larger role Tibetan Buddhist monks and nuns can play in their monasteries, in their communities, and in the world at large. Beyond the Robe is a collection of essays from the monks and scientists containing the first insights that have come out of this historic effort. Beyond the Robe follows the monks' study of science, but it is not a science book. The real story here is what the study of science has revealed about who these remarkable men and woman really are and the much bigger role that they seem so suited to fill. "I hope that Beyond the Robe helps you to feel closer to the monks and nuns and to better understand their immense potential to provide leadership in their world and further insight into ours. Instead of simply admiring them from afar, let's all get close enough to really listen." —Bobby Sager "Bobby Sager has been not only a most generous and dedicated benefactor of the Science for Monks program since it was launched 12 years ago, but also he is a direct witness to its flourishing. His testimony and insight are key to an in-depth understanding of this unique encounter between two major traditions of knowledge, Buddhist contemplative science and modern Western science. His account provides a welcome encouragement to this wonderful meeting of minds and hearts at the service of humanity." —Matthieu Ricard "Beyond the Robe has many fascinating dimensions and makes a critical contribution to Tibet, to Buddhism, and to our world today. The space it opens is the world of the Tibetan Buddhist monastic universities, still thriving in Indian exile. Within that world, we encounter, in beautiful and thought provoking ways, the living tradition of Buddhist monastics, their realms of study, debate, prayer, and meditation, and their living intellectual and experiential encounter with the modern worldview, with its discoveries, technologies, and anxieties." —Robert Thurman

The Redemption of Bobby Love

A Story of Faith, Family, and Justice

By: Bobby Love,Cheryl Love

The inspiring, dramatic, and heartwarming true account of an escaped convict and his wife of thirty-five plus years who never knew his secret, which captured the imaginations of millions on Humans of New York. Bobby and Cheryl Love were living in Brooklyn, happily married for decades, when the FBI and NYPD appeared at their door and demanded to know from Bobby, in front of his shocked wife and children: "What is your name? No, what's your real name?" Bobby's thirty-eight-year secret was out. As a Black child in the Jim Crow South, Bobby found himself in legal trouble before his 14th birthday. Sparked by the desperation he felt in the face of limited options and the pull of the streets, Bobby became a master thief. He soon found himself facing a thirty-year prison sentence. But Bobby was smarter than his jailers. He escaped, fled to New York, changed his name, and started a new life as "Bobby Love." During that time, he worked multiple jobs to support his wife and their growing family, coached Little League, attended church, took his kids to Disneyland, and led an otherwise normal life. Then it all came crashing down. With the drama of a jailbreak story and the incredible tension of a life lived in hiding, The Redemption of Bobby Love is an unbelievable but true account of building a life from scratch, the pain of festering secrets in marriage, and the unbreakable bonds of faith and love that keep a family together.

Cherokee County

By: Bobby G. McElwee

Within these pages, the Cherokee County's rich and varied history is illuminated by vintage photographs, and its past is brought to life in the faces of its early settlers. Created in 1836 from land held formerly by the Cherokee Indians, Cherokee County is situated in the northeast corner of Alabama, bordered by Georgia to the east.The families of the Reverend Whitefield Anthony and others settled at Mudd Creek in 1831 in what was to become Cherokee County. From these first families developed a community that would grow and change along with a young and bustling America, welcoming new industries, farming fertile lands, and building churches and schools to feed the hearts and minds of its young. The photographs in this volume, illustrating the county's past as well as how it looks in the present day, were culled from a variety of sources, including the Cherokee County History Museum, the Pine Grove Baptist Church, and the private collections of many local families. Coupled with a historical narrative, these glimpses of yesteryear will evoke fond memories for all who have made Cherokee County home.

Revival: Lead in Soil (1993)

Recommended Guidelines

By: Bobby G. Wixson,Brian E. Davies

Until the publication of this new book there had been a lack of well-founded guidelines for evaluating concentrations of lead in soil and its relationship to human health. Thus, much confusion has existed among regulatory agencies, industries, public health officials, and the medical community about the evaluation and remedying of lead-contaminated soils. Lead in Soil: Recommended Guidelines represents the combined efforts of a multi-disciplinary international task force from the Society for Environmental Geochemistry and Health (SEGH) whose members are experts in the fields of lead pollution and toxicology. It provides an international consensus concerning environmental lead and blood lead-especially in children. The task force evaluated the evidence and made recommendations for guidelines to appraise lead concentration. It also studied the influence of soil and other sources of lead on blood lead concentrations. A model was prepared that allows the user to select appropriate target levels of blood lead while allowing for a variety of environmental situations or regulatory criteria.

Politics and Divinization in Augustan Poetry

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Politics and Divinization in Augustan Poetry

By: Bobby Xinyue

Politics and Divinization in Augustan Poetry offers a new interpretation of one of the most prominent themes in Latin poetry, the divinization of Augustus, and argues that this theme functioned as a language of political science for the early Augustan poets as they tried to come to terms with Rome's transformation from Republic to Principate. Examining an extensive body of texts ranging from Virgil's Eclogues to Horace's final book of the Odes (covering a period roughly from 43 BC to 13 BC), this study highlights the multifaceted metaphorical force of divinizing language, as well as the cultural complications of divinization. Through a series of close readings, this book challenges the view that poetic images of Augustus' divinization merely reflect the poets' attitude towards Augustus or their recognition of his power, and puts forward a new understanding of this motif as an evolving discourse through which the first generation of Augustan poets articulated, interrogated, and negotiated Rome's shift towards authoritarianism.

The Passage

From Death to Life

By: Bobby L. Scurlock

Dr. Bob Scurlock's father shared something with him that all of us wonder about. He told him "death is not the end." From his father's near death experience (NDE) and his mother's out of body experience (OBE), on to more than 35 personal NDE accounts, "The Passage, from Death to Life," gives every reader hope that there is something to look forward to after death. Common phenomena experienced by countless others describing "the light," "the tunnel," voices," or "the presence of deceased," are shared as common threads supporting what Dr. Raymond Moody, expert on NDEs, outlines as the nine elements that generally occur during the experience. In addition to these real-life, near-death accounts, Scurlock sheds his own light on these phenomena, from his personal experiences including his own encounter with God at fifteen, as well as in grounded, theoretical explanations revealed by some of the most respected NDE researchers, physicists and mathematicians in the country. Not meant to put forth a theological thesis concerning religious dogma, or to debate one religion's belief with another on attaining immortality, The Passage seeks to set forth the facts on what constitutes a Near Death Experience. For many, who have shared their stories and who read the book, The Passage provides hope and anticipation of a life after death.

You will need to purchase a new print book to get access to the full experience, including: lifetime access to the online ebook with highlight, annotation, and search capabilities; practice questions from your favorite study aids; an outline tool and other helpful resources. This Second Edition of Federal Income Taxation in Focus joins the celebrated CasebookConnect platform and continues the tradition of preparing students for both the rigors of sophisticated tax practice and the challenge of advanced study in federal tax law. Drafted with the initiate in mind, Federal Income Taxation in Focus employs careful organization, engaging visual enhancements, and student-friendly exposition to communicate both foundational concepts & rules and highly technical refinements. Given the practice-based pedagogy of the Focus Casebook series, this text exposes students to a wide range of IRS pronouncements, and facilitates immediate and frequent application of cases, statutes, and regulations to new fact scenarios. By requiring completion of select Federal Income Taxation in Practice exercises, professors can enrich their students’ learning experience and, as appropriate, assist those students who must satisfy practice-oriented writing requirements. Professors looking to further buttress practice readiness may rely on materials that address federal tax research, as well as those related to tax controversy and litigation (e.g., audits, assessment, protests, IRS appeals, IDRs, administrative summons, 30-day and 90-day letters, closing agreements, offers in compromise, and more). New to the Second Edition: Expanded discussion of the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit (with visually-depicted data from the Tax Policy Center) Several recent cases, including authorities addressing the insolvency exception and taxpayer “assets,” disability discrimination with collateral physical injury, “actual receipt” by taxpayers suffering with dementia, and #MeToo-related problems and concerns as they intersect with established tax law New exhibits from the Congressional Budget Office, Statista.Com, and the Tax Policy Center, all of which facilitate discussion of a wide range of topics (including critical tax theory) IRS pronouncements concerning the treatment of employer-provided cell phones as well as the treatment of business meals and entertainment under § 274 in the wake of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Doctrinal regulars, including Kenan v. Commissioner, Wolder v. Commissioner, and a tightly-edited and readily-accessible version of Crane v. Commissioner (with follow-up discussion of the clarification provided by Commissioner v. Tufts) Both the 2020 IRS Form 1040 of President Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and the 2020 IRS Form 1040 (Schedule A) of Vice-President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff (highlighting the impact of the SALT deduction restriction) Several new comics to entertain and amuse both students and professors! Professors and students will benefit from: An exceptionally-clear writing style (consistently generating high praise from students at several law schools) Key Statutory and Regulatory Provisions in each chapter (providing highly-focused direction with respect to which Code subsections and Treasury Regulations students need to read) Rich visual content for a host of topics that not only facilitates mastery of complex Code-based rules, but also places the subject matter in context and engages student interest, including the evolution of marginal tax rates, deficit-reduction options, student loan debt, home ownership in general (and by race), charitable donations, health care crowdfunding, legalization of marijuana use, extraordinary divorce settlements, capital asset holdings by demographic, and more. A consciously modern, 21st century approach to rendering the classic tax casebook, including a refreshing infusion of authorities handed down after the year 2000 A carefully-organized and logical presentation of concepts that ensures that students have the necessary substantive foundation for understanding new material Cases, problems, and pronouncements that reflect the rich diversity of students, legal professionals, and taxpayers generally Teaching materials include: Teacher’s Manual (including detailed case briefs) Microsoft PowerPoint presentations

Motivation for Learning and Performance

By: Bobby Hoffman

Designed for educators, researchers, practitioners, or anyone interested in maximizing human potential, Motivation for Learning and Performance outlines 50 key motivation principles based on the latest scientific evidence from the disciplines of psychology, education, business, athletics, and neurology. Using a highly applied and conversational style, the book is designed to inform the reader about how to diagnosis, analyze, and mediate learning and performance challenges influenced by motivation. The book features chapters on the biopsychology of motivation, how motivation changes across the lifespan, and the important influence of culture on motivated behavior. Three chapters are devoted to practical strategies and the implementation of motivational change. Special sections are included on enhancing motivation at work, in the classroom, in competitive environments, and during online education. Hoffman employs the innovative approach of using his interviews with "real" people including many notable personalities across diverse cultures and disciplines to illustrate motivated behavior. For example, readers will learn what motivated the colossal investment fraud masterminded by Bernie Madoff, the intimate thoughts of former NFL superstar Nick Lowery when he missed a field goal, and the joys and tribulations of Emmy-nominated "Curb your Enthusiasm" actress Cheryl Hines. The book provides a practical, applied, and multi-disciplinary resource for anyone interested in motivation and performance, but especially for university students at the graduate or undergraduate level studying education, psychology, business, leadership, hospitality, sports management, or military science. Additionally, the writing style and eclectic nature of the text will appeal to readers of non-fiction who can use the book to gain self-awareness to enhance performance of themselves or others. - Considers motivation for both learning and performance - Identifies 50 foundational principles relating to motivation - Provides research evidence supporting the foundational principles - Includes interviews from famous individuals, identifying what motivated them and why - Includes research from psychology, education, neuroscience, business, and sports

America's Johannesburg

Industrialization and Racial Transformation in Birmingham

By: Bobby M. Wilson

In some ways, no American city symbolizes the black struggle for civil rights more than Birmingham, Alabama. During the 1950s and 1960s, Birmingham gained national and international attention as a center of activity and unrest during the civil rights movement. Racially motivated bombings of the houses of black families who moved into new neighborhoods or who were politically active during this era were so prevalent that Birmingham earned the nickname “Bombingham.” In this critical analysis of why Birmingham became such a national flashpoint, Bobby M. Wilson argues that Alabama’s path to industrialism differed significantly from that of states in the North and Midwest. True to its antebellum roots, no other industrial city in the United States depended as much on the exploitation of black labor so early in its urban development as Birmingham. A persuasive exploration of the links between Alabama’s slaveholding order and the subsequent industrialization of the state, America’s Johannesburg demonstrates that arguments based on classical economics fail to take into account the ways in which racial issues influenced the rise of industrial capitalism.

It Was a Dark and Stormy Night

By: Bobby Alvarez

So I present to you twelve chapter 1s of novels that have never been written or, more importantly, finished. Maybe someday, after the kids leave and I have all sorts of free time, Ill finish one or two of these into full-fledged novels. But I doubt it. So dont hold your breath. Instead, just enjoy the potential of chapter 1. Who needs an ending anyway?

The Generation Myth

Why When You're Born Matters Less Than You Think

The Generation Myth

Why When You're Born Matters Less Than You Think

By: Bobby Duffy

Millennials, Baby Boomers, Gen Z—we like to define people by when they were born, but an acclaimed social researcher explains why we shouldn't. Boomers are narcissists. Millennials are spoiled. Gen Zers are lazy. We assume people born around the same time have basically the same values. It makes for good headlines, but is it true? Bobby Duffy has spent years studying generational distinctions. In The Generation Myth, he argues that our generational identities are not fixed but fluid, reforming throughout our lives. Based on an analysis of what over three million people really think about homeownership, sex, well-being, and more, Duffy offers a new model for understanding how generations form, how they shape societies, and why generational differences aren’t as sharp as we think. The Generation Myth is a vital rejoinder to alarmist worries about generational warfare and social decline. The kids are all right, it turns out. Their parents are too.

Soil Processes and Water Quality

By: Bobby A. Stewart

Agrochemicals and agricultural practices have a tremendous impact on environmental quality, particularly their role in water quality degradation. Soil Processes and Water Quality examines principles and practices that minimize the risks of water pollution while enhancing agricultural intensification and productivity. It focuses on how agricultural practices-such as tillage methods, use of fertilizers and manures, cropping systems, and the use of agrochemicals and pest control measures-impact soil processes and affect water quality. Extensive coverage of such topics as water contamination by runoff, leaching, macropore flow, and sediments is also included. Rapid increases in the use of agrochemicals make Soil Processes and Water Quality an indispensable reference for soil scientists, water quality professionals, researchers, environmental chemists, agrochemicals professionals, government agency employees, academic instructors, agronomists, and students.

The Wonder Boy

By: Bobby John

Twb is the story of a boy who has been gifted with some special powers to access information bases. However, the purpose of the book is not simply to demonstrate how important correct information is for making useful decisions. However, the real purpose of this book is to emphasize on everyone, i.e., people of all ages, the importance of maintaining their initial instincts of siding with good, right and truth. It is a well known fact that as we grow older, we tend to lose our innocence and develop various types of barriers to defend the positions that we believe we have been forced to adopt in our lives for the sake of our survival. Twb believes that to the extent possible, we must all struggle to maintain our clear conscience that was given to us when we were born. It is this endeavor on the part of all persons alive on this planet that will achieve the much desired goals of peace and stability around the world, which will then lead to a reduction of disequilibrium and promote social good.
