Sethluker Story Final 12.26 Compressed.Pages 2 How Love Beat Cancer My name is Seth Luker. I am a simple man from a tiny, unknown place called Voss, Texas. As you will read, my life got very complicated in ways that a simple man from the desert of West Texas couldn’t comprehend. Refecting back at the many chance encounters that later saved my life, I was driven to something that was far beyond my dreams of playing football at the college level. I was destined to impact the lives of people I would never meet in person. I want to share my story because of the profound lessons it has taught me about life, death, love and one thing we all take for granted – our body. Medical statistics or accepted odds would have told you that there is no way I could be around to share my story. Te fact is, that by all indications, I should not be alive today. But, as you stay with me on this wild adventure, you will understand why I consider myself a very lucky guy – and as you will learn quickly, in more ways than just beating the odds. I had been saved by modern medicine, or so it seemed at frst. Surgery and chemo improved the odds of survival and I am eternally grateful to the doctors who helped me. But the real reason I am alive today has little to do with medicine and a lot to do with family, friendship and one aspect of the human spirit that knows no bounds. When it is all said and done, I am here today because of the power of love. Te kind of love that is pure, uninhibited and unconditional. Te kind of love that gives and never takes. Mine is a love story that began with a chance encounter at a honky-tonk bar in Nashville, Tennessee; one look, followed by an avalanche of emotions and an amazing journey. A love that was tested time and time again yet remained pure and powerful. A love that help me beat the odds. Seth Luker 3 How Love Beat Cancer Chapter One It’s only Rock & Roll and I love it. I grew up in Voss, West Texas - home to about twenty families. Each day started and ended with all things sports. My football career started at age three, the frst time I held a ball. Growing up in rural West Texas also meant spending all day playing sports and looking for something to do when the sun went down. Around the age of 12, and every night around 9pm, I would head out to the car to listen to music. I tuned into the only pop/rock station we could get and listened to the “Top 9 at 9”, a blend of different genres and styles.I was exposed to a wide variety of top artists. During 9th and 10th grade I played for Panther Creek High School and won the state championship each year. My father, who was a renowned coach, wanted a bigger stage for my brother Kelan and I. We moved to Stephenville, Texas and my team won the Class 4A State Title in my 11th grade season. In 12th grade, I was chosen as an All-Star to represent Texas to With my brother Kelan in1998 play against California’s elite high school football talent. I was the frst brother to head to college on a full scholarship. I played for the University of North Texas. I quit after a year and a half. I had no regrets leaving football. Truthfully, my heart just wasn’t in it. One thing that consistently got my spirit to soar was music. One of my childhood friends introduced me to a Metallica album entitled, “And Justice for All”. Te track “One” was the catalyst that ignited my passion for music. I wasn’t paying attention to lyrics, there was something about the ‘beat’ and the energy behind the instruments. I was drawn into music and started to develop immense admiration for the performers and how it all came together. I discovered that I had a natural ear and spotted talent very quickly. It was surprising because I didn’t play an instrument. Dallas had a great rock scene so the three All Star Football- 1996 hour drive was well worth it; I grabbed every opportunity to hear and see amazing bands that played there - whether in huge arenas or local dive bars. I loved the music, craved the energy, but most of all I was drawn to the musicians themselves. I wanted to be a part of that rock & roll lifestyle. Te closer I was getting to them, the more I realized that managing a touring band was what I wanted to do with my life. Metallica Seth Luker 4 How Love Beat Cancer I dreamt of becoming a record label executive. Te more time I spent with my musician friends, the more apparent it became that I had business intuition and the organizational skills that meshed well with what musicians needed in their harried lives. In 2001, I started managing an indie rock band named Submersed. Managing a rock band required wearing many hats with alternating roles of den mother, business manager, operations manager, psychiatrist and a close friend. I loved everything about what I was doing and my life was going great. Some people believe in luck, some believe in divine intervention. I don’t know what it was, but my brother Kelan, who also played college football at SMU, was about to rejoin my journey. In 2001, he suffered a back injury that derailed his football career. Tat same year, Submersed lost their bass player. Kelan, who was a bass player, wound up joining the band. Life got even better with my brother and best friend back by my side. Te next few years were an amazing ride. My good friend and business partner, Jimi Mayer and I managed two bands; Submersed and Edgewater. Submersed Submersed got their record deal with Wind-Up Records a few months after they were formed when I was just 23. Ten, our second band, Edgewater got one as well. In 2003, our band Goneblind and in 2005 Faktion also secured recording contracts with the same label, Roadrunner Records. By that time I was 25, we had four bands under major recording contracts. I was touring Jimi Mayer heavily to promote the records; it was a non-stop adrenaline rush; the Rock & Roll music scene, Edgewater managing the bands, and Kelan by my side. We worked hard and partied even harder. In rare moments of solitude I would refect on my upbringing; I was a small town boy with a fast paced heart and big dreams; wired to always try something new powered by an unstoppable drive to succeed. Once I made up my mind about what, and why I wanted to accomplish, I was totally focused on achieving my goal. Te ‘how’ in life never stopped me - I always fgured it out aided by by a strong ‘why’ conviction that I was meant to succeed. Unbeknownst to me at the time, my “why” reasoning would eventually save my life. But, below the surface of my exciting rock and roll life, something I chose to ignore was about to rear its ugly head and put my newfound happiness on a collision course with disaster. Seth Luker 5 How Love Beat Cancer Chapter Two Kid, you have cancer. Starting in my senior year of high school I had bouts of rectal bleeding. Te very frst time it happened, I came home from a track meet and noticed traces of blood on the toilet paper. I had no clue what that could mean, but as it continued, I told my mother and she realized that I needed to see a doctor. We went to see a local family practitioner. He pretty much dismissed it, “Most likely it’s nothing, you’re an athlete, a big guy, you’re lifting weights, you must have strained yourself and caused a tear.” Te doc did a physical exam, found nothing suspicious and I went on with my life. Te bleeding persisted. It was embarrassing and nerve-wracking for me to get the courage to talk to my mother. We were simple people from a tiny town in West Texas; we did what was typical for a young athletic boy – we ignored it. Interestingly, the word cancer had been on my mind since I was 10 years old. I used to ask my big sister, Scarlett if I had cancer because I could pull my hair out. I also chewed tobacco since I was 13. I don’t know why cancer was on my mind, but from a very early age I had very strong premonitions about my future. I saw myself being successful and overcoming challenges, but none of my visions had anything to do with what was about to happen. I stopped playing football when I was around 20. Tis was also the time when I stopped working out. I wasn’t exercising and my diet pretty much consisted of McDonald’s and…more McDonald’s. Life on the road wasn’t conducive to making Me @ 290 Pounds healthy choices, I was having way too much fun and the 290 pounds I was carrying around showed it. I was 23 and still attending school. Just before I moved to Orlando, Florida with Submersed and dove heavily into the band scene, I decided to see the doctor on campus and I remember telling him “Doc, I think I have colon cancer.” He sort of smirked and said “Let’s do a blood test.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Every Lasting Legacy Remains Rooted in an Undying Urge to Grow. After Two Decades at the Forefront of All Things Guitar, a GRAMM
    Every lasting legacy remains rooted in an undying urge to grow. After two decades at the forefront of all things guitar, a GRAMMY® Award win, 40 million-plus units sold between Alter Bridge, Creed, and his eponymous Tremonti, and countless other accolades, Mark Tremonti once again summited an uncharted creative peak in 2018… For the very first time, the guitarist and singer crafted an immersive concept and accompanying novel for Tremonti’s fourth full-length album and first for Napalm Records, A Dying Machine. As passionate about authors like Gene Wolfe and George R.R. Martin as he is about hard rock and heavy metal, the multitalented musician architected a big screen-worthy tale amplified by his most cohesive sonic vision to date. “I’ve never done anything like this,” he admits. “I had the vision in mind the entire time. Some songs directly relate to the narrative, while some of them are more ambiguous. Even with the concept, it’s very personal. At it’s core, this is a human story, but with a twist.” Since emerging in 2012, he and his bandmates—Eric Friedman [guitar, bass] and Garrett Whitlock [drums]—have built the foundation for such an ambitious statement. Their full-length debut All I Was and the follow up records Cauterize and Dust have earned the band a very strong following. The band has supported these records with extensive headlining gigs and festival appearances everywhere from Rock on the Range to Shiprocked. In the minutes leading up to an Alter Bridge show in Hungary, the idea for this opus serendipitously arrived.

  • Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
    Invisible Man By Ralph Ellison Back Cover: Winner of the National Book Award for fiction. Acclaimed by a 1965 Book Week poll of 200 prominent authors, critics, and editors as "the most distinguished single work published in the last twenty years." Unlike any novel you've ever read, this is a richly comic, deeply tragic, and profoundly soul-searching story of one young Negro's baffling experiences on the road to self-discovery. From the bizarre encounter with the white trustee that results in his expulsion from a Southern college to its powerful culmination in New York's Harlem, his story moves with a relentless drive: -- the nightmarish job in a paint factory -- the bitter disillusionment with the "Brotherhood" and its policy of betrayal -- the violent climax when screaming tensions are released in a terrifying race riot. This brilliant, monumental novel is a triumph of storytelling. It reveals profound insight into every man's struggle to find his true self. "Tough, brutal, sensational. it blazes with authentic talent." -- New York Times "A work of extraordinary intensity -- powerfully imagined and written with a savage, wryly humorous gusto." -- The Atlantic Monthly "A stunning blockbuster of a book that will floor and flabbergast some people, bedevil and intrigue others, and keep everybody reading right through to its explosive end." -- Langston Hughes "Ellison writes at a white heat, but a heat which he manipulates like a veteran." -- Chicago Sun-Times TO IDA COPYRIGHT, 1947, 1948, 1952, BY RALPH ELLISON All rights reserved under International and Pan-American Copyright Conventions.

  • Björk Reaches Beyond the Binaries
    COMMUNICATOR BETWEEN WORLDS: BJÖRK REACHES BEYOND THE BINARIES Edwin F. Faulhaber A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2008 Committee: Kimberly Coates, Advisor Robert Sloane ii ABSTRACT Kimberly Coates, Advisor Icelandic pop star Björk has spent her career breaking down boundaries, blurring lines, and complicating binaries between perceived opposites. Examining a variety of both primary and secondary sources, this study looks at the ways that Björk challenges the binary constructions of “high” and “low” art, nature and technology, and feminism and traditional femininity, and also proposes that her uniquely postmodern approach to blurring boundaries can be a model for a better society in general. This study contends that Björk serves as a symbol of what might be possible if humans stopped constructing boundaries between everything from musical styles to national borders, and as a model for how people can focus on their commonalities while still respecting the freedom of individual expression. This is particularly important in the United States of America, a place where despite its infinite potential for cultural pluralism and collaboration, there are as many (or more) divisions between people based upon race, class, gender, and religion as anywhere else in the world. iii Dedicated to Morgaine iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my committee, Dr. Kim Coates and Rob Sloane, for all of their suggestions and encouragement while I wrote this thesis. I would also like to thank Dr. Don McQuarie and Gloria Enriquez Pizana for their support and assistance, as well as a host of wonderful professors who laid the groundwork for this thesis by inspiring me along the way: Rob, Kim, Drs.
