Book Description
Donnie Allison was always the "other" brother of the famous NASCAR racing duo. Overshadowed throughout his career by Bobby Allison, his older brother and the third-winningest driver in NASCAR history, Donnie often did not get his due for being an outstanding racer in his own right. Perhaps only true students of NASCAR history know that Donnie Allison won 10 races in his career. That he posted top 10 finishes in 47 percent of all the races he ever ran. That four of the five times the Allison brothers ran 1-2 in a race, it was Donnie in front at the checkers. Fewer still may know that he was rookie of the year in the 1970 Indianapolis 500 or that he seriously considered giving up stockcar racing to go drive Indy cars full-time for A.J. Foyt. So little is known about Donnie Allison in part because he wasn't much of a talker in his racing days. Donnie lived by the philosophy that his driving did his talking for him. If he won, it told people he was successful. If he didn't, well they knew he had something to work on. Over the years, his being so tight-lipped led to many misconceptions, twisted tales and outright falsehoods about Donnie Allison, his racing career and his life. In Donnie Allison: As I Recall...., he sets the record straight on a variety of subjects he's wanted to clear up for years, including the 1979 Daytona 500 and the famous fight in the infield with Cale Yarborough; the win NASCAR tried to steal from him and give to Richard Petty; and his ultra-competitive, often-combative relationship with a racing brother who didn't like to lose to anybody. Many stories make the rounds about Donnie Allison and often when they are re-told -- even by members of his own family--thecircumstances aren't related the way Donnie recalls them. That's why he wanted to do a book. "I've got lots of stories to tell, and I want to tell them the way I remember them," Donnie says. In Donnie Allison: As I Recall..., he's done just that.

When You Know
Author: K. L. Cottrell

ISBN: 1945616105
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 692
Book Description
Many would call being able to see the future a ‘gift,’ but twenty-six-year-old Hallie Lark calls it a useless, bewildering bother. She does in her own head, at least, because no one else knows about her ability. Not only is she an introvert and part of a cold family, but her glimpses of the future are as impossible to prove as they are to prevent. They're a bother, indeed, always leaving her feeling ineffectual—she doesn’t know why they plague her, and she wishes they wouldn’t. Until a truly staggering one sparks up out of nowhere, straight through the blue-gray dullness she’s been stuck in for so long. Somewhere in another state, Keaton Iorio is living his own version of life with his son, ordinary and happy. He’s certain he has all that he needs, from a wonderful family and a good best friend to a reliable job and solid health. Although finally meeting his match would be cool, being a single dad is fine by him; he’s blessed as it is, and he knows it. What he doesn’t know is that change was set in motion on the night of a certain young woman’s most beautiful and most confusing vision to date—a young woman who’s on the brink of discovering how great a gift her clairvoyance truly is. The collision of these two worlds will, with a brilliant crash, alter what Hallie and Keaton know of love, of themselves, of family, of possibility…and of a not-so-little thing called fate. **This story contains mature content.**

As we delight in being with Him, we are filled to overflowing with contentment and love that propel us into an entirely new way of being, one in which every act of service and every encounter with the people around us arise from a heart at rest. With irresistible warmth and grace, this book calls you to step fully into the life you didn’t even realize you’ve been seeking, as you find your highest calling not in a duty to uphold but in a beautiful identity to live out.

Book Description
While many interpreters hold that Hegel avoided the traditional problem of free will, Yeomans argues both that the problem is unavoidable, and that the two versions of the Logic fruitfully engage the tensions between explicability and both the control and alternate possibilities constitutive of free agency.
