Описание:

On his first day of Catholic school, six-year old Kevin Carroll endured Sister Mary Monsters first smack in the head for cracking a joke. Ten agonizing years of corporal punishment in the Christian behavior modification program failed to suppress his rebellious spirit. After ten years of escapades and escapes, he completed the eighth grade and left school to find work, and at age sixteen he met and married Ellen, the love of his life.

The first time Kevin tried heroin he was sure hed never wind up a strung-out junkie. Six months later he did indeed become a heroin addict, and for twenty-seven years he haunted the darkest, most dangerous streets of Harlem and the South Bronx to support his habit. He worked for the NY City Sanitation Department, always in trouble, always talking his way out of a termination, until yet another arrest for drug possession threatened his career and his pension.

Going away to a three-month drug rehabilitation program, Kevin began to write about his life. It was cathartic. It was healing. When he finally breathed the fresh air of a life without drugs for the first time in his adult life, his loving wife Ellen had the biggest smile. Now twenty-three years clean, his hilarious, harrowing and heartwarming story will captivate readers and give hope to anyone who has been mistreated and believes there is no hope.

Описание:

Move over Frank McCourt, there's a new kid on the literary block Six-year old Kevin Carroll learned on his first day in Catholic school that wise guys get a smack in the head and a trip to the coat closet. Corporal punishment only made him more determined to crack a joke and defy the Mother Superior, leading to endless youthful escapades in the South Bronx projects.

Leaving school in 9th grade, Kevin worked at numerous low pay jobs until he was accepted by the New York City city sanitation department. The young risk-taker tried heroin, liked it and took it again. Before he knew it, Kevin had an addiction, leading to twenty-seven years of dangerous drug buys in Harlem and the South Bronx and mad exploits in order to pay for his habit.

After a third arrest for buying drugs while on the job, he finally went upstate to rehab and got clean. When the drug counselor suggested he write about his experiences, the words poured out from this natural story teller. Three months later, Kevin came out of rehab free from drugs, his notebooks filled with hilarious, harrowing and heartwarming stories.

I Still Can't Fly speaks of redemption and triumph over a disease that is wreaking havoc across the country. Clean for 23 years, his story will discourage many from trying drugs and encourage those with addictions to get beat their addiction and get healthy.

Autogenesism: A Rational Theory of Everything

Описание:

AutoGenesism is a full Theory of Everything. It's the only full Theory of Everything that exists. This is what makes it singular among the many theories that have begun to pile up within the worlds of cosmology, physics and metaphysics in recent years.

It's not a unification theory addressing the profound schism between the way that macro and micro systems operate. It's not a theory focused on reducing the mathematics of material reality to an elegant (if necessarily cryptic) equation that balances one side of the "=" against the other with miraculous precision and without leaning on any infinite values or convenient absences (like gravity or time progression). It's certainly not yet another bland attempt to reveal the science behind any of the handful of traditional religions that have dominated human culture over the course of recent centuries.

AutoGenesism is unlike any Theory of Everything that's ever been proposed, and yes, I fully realize how many times this claim has been published in connection with Natural Philosophy; the centuries-old and on-going effort to define the macro-system that contains everything that is real. This AutoGenesism will prove to be a very different revelation, regardless of how it is measured, compared, or contrasted, and whether it is the world's modern scientific dogmas or its traditional wisdoms that are used as contextual reference.

AutoGenesism fully addresses all questions concerning the true nature of Reality.

  • It reveals how Reality came into existence.
  • It reveals why Reality came into existence.
  • It reveals how spatial dimensions emerged.
  • It reveals why spatial dimensions emerged.
  • It reveals how Time began.
  • It reveals why Time began.
  • It reveals the true structure of material existence.
  • It reveals the truth concerning precedent and its relationship with the laws of nature.
  • It reveals the actual parameters of our universe.

AutoGenesism fully addresses all questions concerning the true nature of the human being.

  • It reveals how humanity is unique within the material realm.
  • It reveals why humanity knows it is unique within the material realm.
  • It reveals the eternal nature of the human being.
  • It reveals that the full human being is not a material manifestation, and why.
  • It reveals how easily a fully developed human being can become imprisoned and explains why it can end up being literally impossible to free such a prisoner.
  • It offers the most plausible explanation for our species' belief in gods, demons, heavens, and hells.
  • It reveals the false connection between deism/theism and human afterlife.
  • It reveals the physics behind all that humanity has known to be true about itself.

AutoGenesism addresses these basics, and how they each relate intimately with one another, as it completely fleshes out Reality's structural foundation without the introduction of anything that hasn't already been proven fundamental to what's reliably true as a result of the last century of scientific research. That said, all that's become common knowledge will be properly placed and accurately attributed, with the net result being a fully functional matrix that is both familiar and completely counterintuitive - well, until the utter simplicity of it as a thoroughly natural response to raw physical existence itself becomes obvious, and its conceptual elegance forever invalidates all other Reality explanations.

With clarity and specificity, AutoGenesism: A Rational Theory of Everything takes on the biggest and most intractable questions that our own human race has ever confronted while making a powerful case that, when all is finally revealed, Reality is probably going to turn out to be a lot less confounding than the world's greatest minds could have ever imagined.
