Excerpt from There Is Something in the Air Unconsciously the Spaniard struck the key note of the whole situation when he uttered those few words It is something in the air - and while in his own heart no responsive chord thrilled at their sound, to us they convey all the meaning of an axiomatic truth. It would be hard, indeed, to explain those words to a thoroughgoing Spaniard, because he could never grasp the full extent and meaning of what the something is that the Cuban patriots breathe; but it would be even more difficult to explain them to an American, for they would beunderstood so fully and so quickly from their mere mention that an attempt to define that something would be as futile as an attempt to demonstrate one of the self-evident propositions of Euclid.

Michaela Olsson has found her soulmate in James Khan. There are just a few teeny, tiny problems… One, he’s her boss, two, he’s too old for her, and three, well, he happens to be engaged to somebody else. She’ll take this crush and bury it deep. She’ll take it to her grave. James already belongs to another, so she’ll lock her secret up so tight it’ll be deprived of oxygen, suffocate and die. Too dark? Matters are only made worse when James asks her to move into his newly purchased house to supervise the renovations. Working together every day is bad enough, but living in a house he owns is far more intimate than she expected. Then, when James decides to call off his wedding without any explanation whatsoever, Michaela wonders if perhaps her feelings for him aren’t as one-sided as she thought. While he was engaged James shared a flat with his fiancée, but now he’s moving into the house that Michaela has been living in by herself. She hadn’t intended for it to happen, but the place has started to feel like home, and with the object of her affections suddenly sharing her living space, things become infinitely more complicated. And heated. Soon Michaela learns she might’ve had more to do with James calling off his engagement than she could’ve possibly imagined.

Excerpt from There Is Something in the Air In a little book recently published, entitled "The Real Condition of Cuba To-day," the author, Mr. Stephen Bonsal, describes at length an interview between himself and a Spaniard who had settled in Cuba but was, heart and soul, a "Peninsular" and an ardent admirer of Captain-General Weyler. This man was unable to comprehend how the insurgents, as he called the followers of Gomez, could maintain their struggle for independence in the face of the tremendous odds against them, and declared that the only possible way for Spain to retain her sovereignty over Cuba was to crush out by every means possible the contagion and dreams of Cuba Libre. "What the contagion is," he said, "I do not know. It is something in the air these Cubans breathe. No one is safe from the infection. Every day I hold my breath as my half-grown boys set out for school, and wonder if they too will start for the long grass." Unconsciously the Spaniard struck the keynote of the whole situation when he uttered those few words - "It is something in the air" - and while in his own heart no responsive chord thrilled at their sound, to us they convey all the meaning of an axiomatic truth.

There is something in the air. Are you ready for a journey? Buckle up and accompany me for a close up view of what really goes on behind the wire to keep nerve gas and other chemical agents out of our air here in the United States. Is the wire to keep nerve gas inside or to maintain secrets? Observe the pathways for nerve gas and other chemical agents to enter our environment and the air we breathe, then you decide. Would you report safety problems regarding the nerve gas to your superiors. What should you do? Experience how it feels to be labeled unpatriotic, watch your employer embarrass and lie about your children then ward off conspiracy after conspiracy to defend yourself in an effort to save your career until your superiors use the United States Court and federal prosecutors to indict you for eight counts of felonies. Watch your excellent reputation be destroyed, almost overnight to become evil, in order to ruin your credibility so the safety problems can be ignored. Watch federal whistle blowing protection laws be thrown out the window because the army has learned a way to circumvent the law to retaliate by incarcerating you in a federal penitentiary. The only retaliation that could be more extreme would be to murder the whistle blowers but don't discount murder! Continue with me for a trip through the federal government rehabilitation program behind the wire at the most secure federal correction complex in the United States, the home of the Supermax nick named the Alcatraz of the Rockies in Florence, Colorado and prison chambers for the most wicked men in our society. Be brave, my word is my sword and it is true so I promise you will return safely and honorably. We will have fun times and at times we will smile but we will also experience tragedy and some of vilest ordeals life has to offer. A life of education is filled with opposites and we will experience a seemingly unending array of them. Meet some new friends. Enjoy their company and conversation but guard yourself at all times and pray that you will never meet some of the other men and women you read about in person. The few individuals who do not want to be counted among my friends and who participated against me appeared to believe the mission was infallible; at all costs the chemical agents must burn baby burn, full speed ahead, and any other course to destroy these weapons would be unpatriotic, satanic, and blasphemous. I promise that you will be rewarded by reinforcing your own determination to be the same type of person in your professional life at work that you profess to be at home with your family and friends. You will add a more clear definition to family, service, deceit, freedom, friendship, love, hate, patriotism, service, conspiracy, and sabotage. This journey is my book. It is a story that must be told to embolden future references to chemical agent destruction efforts with factual discovery and honesty. You should be aware of this story before determining your own conclusions. As for me I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. I felt the pain and joy as I lived it. I climbed up the ladder before I fell. I was defeated, I was lost, then I was awakened, and now I am climbing again. We will see the story together by using the full set of puzzle pieces to form a complete picture and I will explain why the lines exist in between the pieces regarding the chemical agent destruction program. The army will give you a perfect picture then describe the border as being safe and pretend the lines between the pieces do not exist. They will say trust us, we care about safety, safety is of utmost importance, don't ask specific questions, and stay away. Free agency is yours so you be the judge. Why were the deadly weapons made? Are the deadly weapons being destroyed and validated as destroyed safely by our sampling and analytical procedures? Or, are the deadly weapons just being destroyed? My friends and I have bee

A sweeping, anecdotal account of the great sounds and voices of radio–and how it became a bonding agent for a generation of American youth When television became the next big thing in broadcast entertainment, everyone figured video would kill the radio star–and radio, period. But radio came roaring back with a whole new concept. The war was over, the baby boom was on, the country was in clover, and a bold new beat was giving the syrupy songs of yesteryear a run for their money. Add transistors, 45 rpm records, and a young man named Elvis to the mix, and the result was the perfect storm that rocked, rolled, and reinvented radio. Visionary entrepreneurs like Todd Storz pioneered the Top 40 concept, which united a generation. But it took trendsetting “disc jockeys” like Alan Freed, Murray the K, Wolfman Jack, Cousin Brucie, and their fast-talking, too-cool-for-school counterparts across the land to turn time, temperature, and the same irresistible hit tunes played again and again into the ubiquitous sound track of the fifties and sixties. The Top 40 sound broke through racial barriers, galvanized coming-of-age kids (and scandalized their perplexed parents), and provided the insistent, inescapable backbeat for times that were a-changin’. Along with rock-and-roll music came the attitude that would literally change the “voice” of radio forever, via the likes of raconteur Jean Shepherd, who captivated his loyal following of “Night People”; the inimitable Bob Fass, whose groundbreaking Radio Unnameable inaugurated the anything-goes free-form style that would come to define the alternative frontier of FM; and a small-time Top 40 deejay who would ultimately find national fame as a political talk-show host named Rush Limbaugh. From Hunter Hancock, who pushed beyond the limits of 1950s racial segregation with rhythm and blues and hepcat patter, to Howard Stern, who blew through all the limits with a blue streak of outrageous on-air antics; from the heyday of summer songs that united carefree listeners to the latter days of political talk that divides contentious callers; from the haze of classic rock to the latest craze in hip-hop, Something in the Air chronicles the extraordinary evolution of the unique and timeless medium that captured our hearts and minds, shook up our souls, tuned in–and turned on–our consciousness, and went from being written off to rewriting the rules of pop culture.

In the tradition of Seabiscuit and The Summer of ’49, a gripping sports narrative that brilliantly tells the amazing individual stories of the unforgettable athletes who gathered in Mexico City in a year of dramatic upheaval. The 1968 Mexico City Olympics reflected the spirit of their revolutionary times. Richard Hoffer’s Something in the Air captures the turbulence and offbeat heroism of that historic Olympiad, which was as rich in inspiring moments as it was drenched in political and racial tensions. Although the basketball star Lew Alcindor decided to boycott, heavyweight boxer George Foreman not only competed, but waved miniature American flags over his fallen opponents. The sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos became as famous for their raised-fist gestures of protest as their speed on the track. No one was prepared for Bob Beamon’s long jump, which broke the world’s record by a staggering twenty-two inches. And then there was Dick Fosbury, the goofball high jumper whose backwards, upside down approach to the bar (the "Fosbury Flop") baffled his coaches while breaking records. Though Fosbury was his own man, he was apolitical and easygoing. He didn’t defy authority; he defied gravity. Witty, insightful, and filled with human drama, Something in the Air mixes Shakespearean complexity with Hollywood sentimentality, sociopolitical significance, and the exhilarating spectacle of youthful, physical prowess. It is a powerful, unforgettable tale that will resonate with sports fans and readers of social history alike.

** SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER** 'Rattling. Heartbreaking. Beautiful.' Atul Gawande, bestselling author of Being Mortal What makes life worth living in the face of death? At the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade's training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, the next he was a patient struggling to live. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi's transformation from a medical student asking what makes a virtuous and meaningful life into a neurosurgeon working in the core of human identity - the brain - and finally into a patient and a new father. Paul Kalanithi died while working on this profoundly moving book, yet his words live on as a guide to us all. When Breath Becomes Air is a life-affirming reflection on facing our mortality and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a gifted writer who became both. 'A vital book about dying. Awe-inspiring and exquisite. Obligatory reading for the living' Nigella Lawson
