This is the story of a losing baseball team that became a 1970s dynasty, thanks to the unorthodox strategies and stunts of two very colorful men. When Charlie Finley bought the A's in 1960, he was an outsider to the game-a insurance businessman with a larger-than-life personality. He brought his cousin Carl on as his right-hand man, moved the team from Kansas City to Oakland, and pioneered a new way to put together a winning team. With legendary players like Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, and Vida Blue, the Finleys' Oakland A's won three straight World Series and riveted the nation. Now Carl Finley's daughter Nancy reveals the whole story behind her family's winning legacy-how her father and uncle developed their scouting strategy, why they employed odd gimmicks like orange baseballs and "mustache bonuses," and how the success of the '70s Oakland A's changed the game of baseball. Nancy Finley, the Oakland A's "dugout daughter," was two years old when her father, Carl, joined his cousin Charlie Finley to run the Athletics' front office, and she grew up with the team. She and her family currently reside in Austin, Texas.

Alexandra von Triessen, a shy yet gifted pianist, faces the pressure of cutthroat competition and her own insecurities at the prestigious International Ketterling Piano Competition. Raised by cold and distant parents, Alexandra found solace in music, channeling her deepest emotions into her art. At Ketterling, she crosses paths with Sebastian D’Antonio, a magnetic and ambitious pianist whose dazzling charisma masks the shadows of his fractured past. While Alexandra is drawn to Sebastian’s charm, she is equally captivated—and haunted—by his estranged brother, Conrad, a mysterious and reclusive genius with an unearthly talent for composition. As Alexandra navigates the high-stakes world of Classical Music, she is forced to choose between playing it safe with her repertoire or taking a bold risk that could either make or break her career. Her growing connection to Sebastian complicates her focus, while Conrad’s quiet intensity pulls her in another direction entirely. Just as Alexandra’s career begins to ascend and Sebastian basks in newfound fame as a composer, a shocking discovery in the attic of the D’Antonio estate exposes a devastating deception—one that threatens to unravel not just their lives, but the very legacy they’ve built their careers upon.

Dr.  McManus witnessed firsthand the devastating impact that racism had on his racially, ethnically, and religiously diverse family growing up in a white flight town south of Boston. The eldest of three boys, Joe-Joe was born into a working-class family that lived in an apartment behind the local “packie” (liquor store). Shortly after his first birthday, his parents adopted five-week-old Kacey, and a few years later, their brother B-J was born. Racism became an issue early on for the McManus boys because of the reactions to Kacey, who was African American. Their family of five also experienced anti-Semitism and classism, but nothing was as insidious as the anti-Black racism that was ever present. Taught to actively oppose racism and intersecting oppressions from an early age, it became Joe-Joe’s life’s work after Kacey’s passing at only seventeen years old.  Motivated by his experiences as a father and his reflections on the challenges faced by his daughter, Makaila, Dr. Joe-Joe McManus shares heartfelt stories and actionable strategies for dismantling racism and fostering equity. He takes you by the hand and into his world which is shaped by courage, equity, and a relentless pursuit of freedom. Through deeply personal stories and groundbreaking strategies, this book illuminates how the decisions you make can either uphold or dismantle the systems that perpetuate racism.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… While out in public do most people know what shirt they’re wearing?  Plus…Why don’t we feel refreshed when we wake up each new morning? I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

Under the Raging Sun captures both the intensity and beauty of the band's Siberian roots while pushing their musical boundaries even further. The album has crafted a sonic landscape that’s both haunting and triumphant, blending elements of progressive rock, and post-rock with their signature style. Taking inspiration from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, the band draws a symbolic connection between the isolation and resilience of the reservation and their roots in Siberia. Both regions are known for their vast, rugged landscapes and the deep history of survival and adaptation—a perfect metaphor for the spirit that defines PINE RIDGE’s music.
Founded in 2014 by Vasiliy Pischukhin, PINE RIDGE has carved out their distinct place in the global rock scene. Their debut album From Somewhere, to Nowhere... (2016), released by Berlin-based Nasoni Records, set the stage for their international journey, with a limited vinyl edition of only 300 copies that quickly sold out. Their follow-up album, Can’t Deny (2020), released via Italy's Karma Conspiracy Records, has only solidified their status in the underground rock world.I would love to get your thoughts on their music and see if you might be interested in an interview with the band’s founder and lead singer Vasiliy Pischukhin

When her husband died suddenly at the age of 67, after suffering a massive stroke, Pamela decided to publish this collection of 5 novels as both a tribute and a way of dealing with the grief and loss. But, what may have begun as a passionate tribute has grown into something much bigger, garnering hundreds of reviews from readers and praise from professional book reviewers. In an interview, she can talk about grief and finding the best way to honor a loved one that has passed.“In David’s writing,” says Blake, “you can hear the voice of a man who is now silent, but whose words will live on – reaching across time. Words that speak loudly of his passions, his sense of social justice, and of his appreciation for other humans and the complex relationships we have with one another.”

Bill Gates has famously remarked, ‘Everyone needs a coach.’ Think about it - top athletes, star corporate executives, and industry leaders all have access to coaches to ensure they’re performing at their absolute highest level. What if that sametype of expertise and guidance was available to anyone who wished to better their performance, take control of their career paths and develop their potential to its fullest? Unfortunately, research shows that only 3 - 5% of corporate leaders receive executive coaching, so where does that leave the rest of us?  Executive coach Dr. Marty Seldman aims to make the benefits of coaching available to everyone in his newest book - “Everybody Gets a Coach: Leveraging Self-Care and Coaching to Accelerate Your Career and Maximize Your Value to Any Organization.”  As one of the most experienced executive coaches in the world having trained tens of thousands of executives, Seldman wants to make coaching available to anyone with aspirations to lead and develop their full potential.
