Full Throttle... No Breaks: My Life as a Biker with ADHD
Duane Ferris
Independently Published
2018
nidottu
I have ADHD and I'm a biker. This book is about how the condition has shaped my life and the ways I have learned to live with it. A light hearted, personal view of the World around me and the British biker lifestyle that's brutally honest but with a touch of humor. Hopefully it will help those with the same condition to not feel so alone and help those living with somebody like me gain a little more understanding.
It is 1869, and Emily Warren Roebling's father-in-law, John A. Roebling, the chief engineer of the Brooklyn Bridge, has suddenly died and left the job to his son, Emily's husband, Colonel Washington Roebling. Washington succumbs to a mysterious illness at the beginning of the project, and Emily becomes a liaison and field supervisor for the bridge. She puts aside her own ambitions as an educated woman while devoting herself to her son, John, her husband, and the bridge. She faces many indignities as a woman in a world of men. Emily Warren Roebling was a remarkable woman who lived from 1843 to 1903, and whose accomplishments would seem unbelievable if they were not true. She was an ardent feminist who was well ahead of her time. There is even a plaque dedicated to her on the Brooklyn Bridge.
In Diane Vogel Ferri's A Slow Journey to Totality, she begins with the clear affirmation that "knowing is better than not knowing." At times soul-searching and grief-stricken, at times breathtakingly radiant and transcendent, this collection explores themes of family and faith, birth and death, gender and the art of aging. In her poem "The Leaving," Ferri's imagined moment of earthly departure is triumphant: "(If you are in church do not pray for me, / just sing and I will hear you.)" and, "The earth is a molecule now, / I'm holding gold dust in my hands, / I'll leave a portal open for you." By her journey's end, she has found her divine truth: "I sit squarely in the mercy seat, / having walked there on my knees." Ferri has found her totality, and she is knowing.-Dianne Borsenik, author of Flight of Honey and Raga for What Comes Next, Editor/Publisher at NightBallet PressDiane Vogel Ferri's tender and emotive new poetry sequence, A Slow Journey to Totality, leaves a bold and generous "portal open for" the reader to join her in exploring a lifetime encompassing innocence, longing, loss and personal evolution-through hard and soft, open and heavy and sometimes "hollow arms"; through faith, hope, parenthood, and myriad layers of relationship; as well as through "decades of music" and "brilliant mystery"-to find meaning, beauty, and well-earned light in the fullness of time. Ferri deserves gratitude for allowing us to accompany her on this journey, and for providing navigational landmarks to guide us on our own.-John Burroughs, U.S. National Beat Poet Laureate, 2022-23In A Slow Journey to Totality, Diane Vogel Ferri guides us into a quietude that wakes us to the wonders of this world. But her tour is no easy travel through feminist struggles, wars, and the deaths of parents and friends. Accompany Ferri "as a charm of finches arrive / in this lotus land." We will have all gone on this journey where we can go no further but resurrection.-Ray McNiece, Heights' Poet Laureate and Cleveland Arts Prize Lifetime Achievement Award winner
"The poems in Everything is Rising are vivid in imagery and deep in emotion and nostalgia. Diane takes you to places that you may not want to go, but you are a better person by having been there.-Barbara Marie Minney, author of If There's No Heaven"Memory is the mother of all wisdom" according to Aeschylus. Such sagacity stirs in Everything Is Rising. Using what the poet calls "the fossil of my voice," she distills the past's influence, waking us to a world where "blood tastes like creation." Let these pages carry you with a pulse that "has never beat gently" and on "into morning light."-Laura Grace Weldon, 2019 Ohio Poet of the Year"Everything is Rising by Diane Vogel Ferri, is an autobiographical exploration revealing many truths of life. These poems are songs of pain, love, and recovery that portray what women have faced during their lifetime. Diane explored the many definitions of beauty, love, and relationships, uncovering life's complexity. She presented the reader in Everything is Rising with a perspective born of endurance and buoyed by hope that's destined to inspire." Steve ThomasAuthor of Strength of Flowers "Poetry and fiction are first cousins. When I read good poetry, it's like meeting kin after a long separation; bonds forged in youth reveal themselves to be as warm and strong as ever. Diane Vogel Ferri's poetry is a family reunion of the heart." Daniel BellAuthor of Adrift and Dead in River Valley "Diane Vogel Ferri's beautifully crafted poems balance age with youth, regret with hope, clarity with confusion and power with powerlessness. Her poems look forward and upward at a time when so many are stalled in their isolated present. Best of all, Diane's shares her vision through poems that can look directly into the face of what troubles us, without losing sight of goodness and beauty." Gail Bellamy, author of Cleveland Christmas Memories and Cleveland Food Memories
This NUBook is an introduction to 'The AdventurIS Series, ' where there is a lot more knowledge and experience to be shared and known. I have studied The Real History of Mankind and what has taken place here. Most people will look at what I am presenting as a fantasy, science fiction, and even a conspiracy theory, but these are people who have been educated to be one-dimensional from the Invented Systems. The Whole of Life is so beyond what anyone can even begin to imagine, and very few people will ever discover The TruReality Life IS. ALL of Life IS with us all the time, and until a person comes to realize that nothing is really past or outside of them, but that they are the completeness of themselves already and waiting to be realized and then Recognize What IS Real, they will continues to take on future embodiments and have to deal with all their unconscious causes and effects they have and are creating, especially from a subconscious level...

Duane Michals is one of four new titles published this September in Thames & Hudson’s acclaimed ‘Photofile’ series. Each book brings together the best work of the world’s greatest photographers in an attractive format and at an easily affordable price. Hailed by The Times as ‘finely produced’, the books are printed to the highest standards. Each one contains some sixty full-page reproductions, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography.
Duane Michals, the subject of a major travelling retrospective exhibition organized by the Carnegie Museums, has long been recognized for his inventive photo sequences, which shaped the work of several generations of artists. But even as he is enjoying wide acclaim, a central body of work by the 83-year-old artist remains little known. For decades a sought-after editorial photographer for leading magazines, Michals portrayed outstanding creative personalities of our era. This comprehensive selection of his inventive portraits (many not previously published in book form), accompanied by Michals’s inimitable, sometimes hilarious, observations and reminiscences, will delight his many fans. Included are iconic images of performers such as Barbra Streisand and Johnny Cash; contemporary artists including Andy Warhol, David Hockney and Jasper Johns; outstanding authors like Norman Mailer and John Cheever; and ‘old masters’ of modern art including René Magritte and Balthus.
Funny, sad, full of wonderful characters and the word-perfect dialogue of which he is the master, McMurtry brings the Thalia saga to an end with Duane confronting depression in the midst of plenty. Surrounded by his children, who all seem to be going through life crises involving sex, drugs, and violence; his wife, Karla, who is wrestling with her own demons; and friends like Sonny, who seem to be dying, Duane can't seem to make sense of his life anymore. He gradually makes his way through a protracted end-of-life crisis of which he is finally cured by reading Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, a combination of penance and prescription from Dr. Carmichael that somehow works. Duane's Depressed is the work of a powerful, mature artist, with a deep understanding of the human condition, a profound ability to write about small-town life, and perhaps the surest touch of any American novelist for the tangled feelings that bind and separate men and women.

In my seventieth year I have become the lucid dreamer, who has awakened in his sleep of life and knows that he is dreaming. I am a phantom in a phantom landscape. I assume nothing, and find the familiar to be a curiosity. The inherited bedrock of definitions which described reality for me is now porous and insubstantial. Has it been sand all along and I failed to notice? As my consciousness spirals to its predestined disappearance age has forced me to pay attention. Now I begin to see the silhouette of the mystery. I think about thinking and am beyond the comfort of conformity. I must ask questions that I never though to ask before. The most profound questions seem to be transparent in their ordinariness and deceptive in their significance. A child would understand. I know that this modest enquiry must fail. But what else am I to do? Duane Michalls.
