Lord A: Notes on Heartbreak / LF

Notes on Heartbreak

From a host of The Daily Show and stand-up comic, Michael Kosta, comes a wildly funny and insightful memoir about his unlikely journey from professional tennis player (#864 in the world) to professional comedian (there’s no ranking system in comedy but he’s probably . . . top 50?). Before Michael Kosta was performing stand-up comedy specials and hosting The Daily Show, he was a professional tennis “star,” reaching the lofty heights of the #864 ranked men’s singles player in the world. Stop laughing. That’s better than your world ranking. As a tennis pro, Kosta traveled across the globe, competing in such exotic locales as the Netherlands, Tokyo, and even rural Illinois before deciding to put down his racket and pursue a more stable and predictable career: comedy.In a completely unexpected and wild journey through the backwaters of professional tennis, Kosta shows the unlikely ways life on the court prepared him for life in front of a microphone. Like comedy, tennis is brutally competitive, and most people lose at it. Unlike comedy, no one in tennis puts a gun on the table as they count out your earnings in twenty-dollar bills at the end of the night.And then there are the things that have more to do with what happens to you—and what you end up learning—as part of growing up. Topics include: how to properly&nbsp;discard an unwanted European hard-boiled egg, giving CPR to your dead grandpa, cringe-worthy&nbsp;“sex” in the Red Light District,&nbsp;crying so hard in a car that strangers call the cops, and&nbsp;also happy things like&nbsp;what it feels like when your dreams come true.&nbsp;From misadventures in tennis to the humbling setbacks of comedy, Lucky Loser is a heart-filled story of making your own luck, the universal experience of failure, and the many ways in which we all inevitably lose on the way to success.Lucky Loser includes a 16-page photo insert.

Two Women Living Together

"An award-winning journalist, TV political analyst, and creator of TheGrio documentary, Afro-Latinx Revolution: Puerto Rico, recounts her experiences as an African American and Puerto Rican woman, reflecting on her improbable journey from Syracuse to Harvard, hedge fund boardrooms to newsrooms, and beyond in pursuit of America's infinite opportunities. Part inspiring memoir, part cultural analysis, with remarkable self-determination, Natasha S. Alford shows why the movement to recognize Afro-Latin identity illuminates shared struggles across the Black diaspora and often overlooked history"--

"A powerful story of faith, perseverance, and resilience." Anthony Fauci, M.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author and former Director of the NIAIDWhat drives you forward? Is it the pursuit of your ideals or something deeper that's rooted in the tension between who you are and who you will become?Michael Leach, the first-ever Chief Diversity Office of the White House, in his debut book, Faith Over Fear, takes you on a journey that explores the gap between what we aspire to and what we often settle for, both as individuals and as a society.Often as the lone Black man at the forefront of these organizations and operations, Michael has chosen to learn from his experiences, lead, and help others progress. In 2016, when San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick decided to 'take a knee', Leach resonated profoundly. Kaepernick's actions challenged Michael to balance his identity as a Black man with his professional ambitions within the league. This lead him to leave the NFL and join the Biden-Harris administration.In Faith Over Fear, Michael illuminates the stark contrasts between ideals and realities, shedding light on the hidden dynamics of privilege, power, and systemic injustice. He discusses the importance of DEI and inspires readers to reimagine leadership, resilience, and purpose.Leach shares:<ul><li>How you can close the gap between your ideals and the realities you live in.</li><li>Insights and principles to help you navigate your career, relationships, personal growth, and social challenges.</li><li>How to acknowledge the role of fear and work with others.</li></ul>This is more than a story of one man's journey, it is a call to action for individuals of all backgrounds to harness the power of faith and resilience in the face of adversity. Our country was founded on ideals that promised freedom and opportunity for all, but the reality has often been far more complicated.Leach's story demonstrates by "taking a knee" before God in moments of uncertainty, we can shift life's challenges into opportunities for meaningful progress and collective healing. This book aspires to be a generationally transformative narrative, urging readers to critically examine and bridge the gap between the ideals we hold dear and the realities we live.

Her North America tours sell out in a matter of hours in cities such as Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago and NYC.

As a teenager, she joined the wildly popular Mexican girl group Timbiriche and later as a solo artist and actress reached the pinnacle of her the music industry, and she is often referred to as the Latin Madonna, For their part, many journalists and critics have assured that Rubio's great success has also been influenced by the events of her personal life. Since she began her career, the public had a great interest in exploring her personal life. El País journalist Elena Reina says that her success has been thanks to a "brilliant marketing strategy based on her private life."Rubio's shows are also known to be expensive.

Paulina Susana Rubio Dosamantes (Paulina Rubio) es una cantante, compositora, actriz, modelo y mujer de negocios mexicana. Conocida como la “Reina del pop latino” y la “Madonna Latina”, Rubio ha vendido más de 15 millones de récords, lo que la convierte en uno de los artistas de música latina más vendidos de todos lo tiempos. Tiene más de 1.5 millones de seguidores en Instagram, 5.4 millones en Facebook y más de 11 millones en Twitter (que la colocan como la tercera mexicana más popular en Twitter). Sus giras por Norteamérica agotan sus entradas en cuestión de horas en ciudades como Miami, Los Ángeles, Chicago y Nueva York. Ésta es la autobiografía oficial de la adorada cantante mexicoestadounidense, la historia detrás de una de las más prominentes cantantes/artistas/actrices/ mujeres de negocios de Latinoamérica. Un recuento sin límites desde las alturas (giras mundiales con entradas agotadas) hasta las desgarradoras caídas (dos divorcios, ambos debidos a la infidelidad de los esposos). Por primera vez, Paulina abre su corazón y su alma en estas páginas para sus millones de seguidores y cuenta los momentos cruciales de su pasado, revela sus experiencias con los problemas sobre su apariencia física, cómo se abrió paso en una industria dominada por hombres, la crianza de sus hijos como madre soltera y cómo aprendió que sólo puede depender de ella misma. Porque creció como hija de la realeza mexicana de los medios de comunicación (la madre de Paulina es una actriz muy conocida y su padre, un abogado nacido en España), Paulina supo desde temprana edad que estaba destinada a la grandeza. Como adolescente, se unió al popular grupo mexicano de chicas, Timbiriche, y más tarde, como artista individual y actriz, alcanzó la cima de la industrial musical, y con frecuencia recibe el nombre de la Madonna Latina. Por su parte, muchos periodistas y críticos han asegurado que el gran éxito de Paulina también se ha visto influido por acontecimientos de su vida personal. Desde que comenzó su carrera, el publico tuvo mucho interés en explorar su vida personal. Elena Reina, periodista de El País, asegura que su éxito se ha debido a la “brillante estrategia de mercado basada en su vida privada”. También se sabe que los conciertos de Rubio son caros. Su presentación en la gala de Santa Cruz de Tenerife en España en febrero de 2020 se convirtió en la presentación más cara jamás pagada a un artista en ese evento. El propietario del carnaval reveló que “la cantante mexicana recibió una oferta de 103.000 euros por una actuación de ocho minutos”.&nbsp; Paulina Susana Rubio Dosamantes (Paulina Rubio) is a Mexican singer, songwriter, actress, model and businesswoman.&nbsp;Referred to as the "Queen of Latin Pop"&nbsp;and "The Latina Madonna", Rubio has sold over 15 million records&nbsp;making her one of the&nbsp;best-selling Latin music artists of all-time.&nbsp;She has over 1.5 million Instagram followers, 5.4 million Facebook followers and over 11 million Twitter followers, making her the third most popular Mexican on Twitter.

A Little More of Me \ Un poco más de mí (Spanish edition)

Being Latino and Indispensable in America

Essential

"A primary care physician's moving memoir of navigating a complicated path to motherhood, interwoven with the stories of twenty-one of her patients, friends, and medical colleagues-and sharing the intimate truths of their diverse perspectives on being part of all kinds of families, born and built and chosen"--

"Rebecca Thompson’s moving book proves that there are as many different ways of becoming a family as there are mothers—a personal, compelling reminder of why women’s reproductive health care matters, and why one size does not fit all”—Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author"Immersive, compassionate, and vulnerable, Held Together invites us to walk with Dr. Thompson as she navigates her own journey to parenthood and the beautiful, messy, uplifting stories of the families she cares for along the way."—Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to SomeoneA primary care physician's moving memoir of navigating a complicated path to motherhood, interwoven with the stories of twenty-one of her patients, friends, and medical colleagues—and sharing the intimate truths of their diverse perspectives on being part of all kinds of families, born and built and chosen.Seventeen years ago, when Rebecca Thompson endured a string of life-threatening pregnancy losses and rare medical conditions, her training as a physician didn’t protect her from feeling isolated and overwhelmed. What she longed for was a community of women—or even one encouraging story—to reassure her that she wasn’t alone.Deciding to create the community she couldn’t find in her own time of need, Dr. Thompson reached out to friends, patients, and medical colleagues and asked them to share the stories of their personal journeys to parenthood, as well as stories of how their families grew and changed and thrived as they faced challenges beyond those early years.&nbsp;Held Together&nbsp;explores the intersections of these brave, resilient women’s lives with Dr. Thompson’s own as they encounter a vast range of unexpected turns and obstacles, including fertility issues, adoption, fostering, surrogacy, multiples, abortion, stepparenthood, chronic disease, mental illness, the death of a child, the death of a spouse, and so many moments where grief may threaten to consume us—until joy sometimes surprises us.The extraordinary stories of ordinary women reveal that, while our individual circumstances may be unique, our experiences are universal in so many ways: we are creating life, raising children, and sustaining families, even as we search for reassurance that we are not alone in our struggles. Held Together&nbsp;offers a place of healing that welcomes every kind of family, a refuge where we make meaning out of our stories and embrace the belief that life can be beautiful in spite of—and often because of—all its complexities and imperfections. Our foundations may not always be strong, but together, we are.
