No matter what we say, do, or believe in, life has its own terms. And they’re not what we thought. Life presents us all with challenges and setbacks. The life we thought we'd signed up for is not the one we get. Then what? How do we summon the raw courage and strength to go on? Create Plan B and grow wiser from the experience? Ken Druck’s personal journey through tragedy after the death of his daughter Jenna led him to discover the secrets of how we survive life’s worst losses and uncover its dark gifts—hidden opportunities for spiritual deepening, renewal, discovery, meaning, and even joy. We discover how to take off the blinders and be a part of the unseen miracles and opportunities that are right under our noses. From his own experience and as a trusted coach and confidant to people all over the world, including leaders facing their greatest challenges, Ken knows the difference between wishful thinking and grounded truth. His refreshingly honest approach to turning adversity into opportunity makes up the heart and soul of this book. The Real Rules of Life is not a quick fix, nor does it trivialize life’s struggles. It shows you how to heal. How to grow your soul. How to thrive. How to be both broken and whole at the same time. And how to live more consciously. Ken Druck inspires you to make peace with life as it really is. Once you know the Real Rules, you can balance life’s terms with your own and live boldly.

The disappearance of fabulously rich Chicago candy heiress Helen Brach and the suspicious deaths of a string of champion racehorses are linked in a celebrated scandal that has reverberated through every level of the glamorous enclaves of thoroughbred horse breeding. When widowed heiress Helen Brach suddenly disappeared on the morning of February 17, 1977, after a visit to the Mayo Clinic, she left behind a lavender Rolls-Royce, Cadillacs in red, pink, and coral, an eighteen-room mansion, and a fortune now estimated at $75 million. She also left behind a mystery that would tantalize investigators for years. When Assistant US Attorney Steven Miller assigned himself the challenge of solving the Brach case, he never imagined an investigation of the horse world would lead to a charming gigolo named Richard Bailey who made a career of romancing wealthy women out of huge sums of money, a shadowy figure called The Sandman who made his living by killing priceless horses so that their owners could collect insurance, and the ghastly murder of three children in 1955.

Im Fruhjahr 1999 zeigte die Universitatsbibliothek Eichstatt die Ausstellung "Ernst Arnold Bauer sieht James Joyce". Den Festvortrag, der mit dieser Publikation veroffentlicht wird, hielt Ken Monaghan, der Sohn von Joyce's Schwester May. Er erzahlt die Geschichte von Joyce's Dubliner Herkunft und berichtet uber die Lebensumstande, die einen der wohl bedeutendsten Schriftsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts formten. Monaghan entwirft mit allen Sinnen ein unmittelbar durch seine Mutter und seine Verwandten nacherlebtes Gemalde einer bedruckenden Familientragodie, die sowohl fiktiv als auch autobiographisch von James Joyce als Rohmaterial fur sein Werk verwendet wurde.In Verbindung mit den Illustrationen von Ernst Arnold Bauer kann dieses Buch zwei noch nicht so hell ausgeleuchtete Felder in der Wirkungsgeschichte des Werkes von James Joyce starker focussieren: die Lebensgeschichte des grossen Iren aus der Sicht und Erlebniswelt eines weiteren Verwandten einerseits und andererseits die Ausstrahlung seiner bedeutendsten Werke Ulysses und Finnegans Wake in die Bildende Kunst in der Phantasie und durch die Hand von Ernst Arnold Bauer.
