The story of Murray Goldman (aka Moe Fields) is a deep dive into the experiences of one man...and how his fighting spirit and perseverance saved his family and inspired his three sons to succeed. Moe Fields personifies the hard scrabble life of growing up during the Great Depression -- from his teens as a Golden Gloves boxer, to his career as a Bootleg fighter in Brooklyn, to being a WWII sailor whose most prideful moment was singled out by FDR, to a self-made man who built a large plumbing business in New Jersey. His partner in life, Frannie Goldman was cut from the same cloth. An athlete and sax player who toured the Catskills in an all-women's band. Theirs was a Depression era love story. Sacrifice and determination were no strangers to either of them. A drunk driver causes a horrific car accident putting Murray and Fanny in the hospital for months and leaving them to deal with lifetime disabilities. For their three young sons who were "home alone" without supervision, the accident and its aftermath stole their childhoods and changed the lives of their family forever. In this painful time of Covid, Moe Fields is a life affirming story for readers looking to find books that celebrate the strength of family, faith--and the enduring legacy of love parents give us to guide our journey in life. A story about the unbreakable bond between fathers and sons.

This volume represents the Proceedings of the Oji International Seminar on the Application of High Magnetic Fields in the Physics of Semiconductors and Magnetic Materials, which was held at the Hakone Kanko Hotel, Hakone, Japan, from 10 to 13 September 1980. The Seminar was organized as a related meeting to the 15th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors which was held in Kyoto between 1 and 5 September 1980. From 12 countries, 77 de legates participated in the Seminar. This Seminar was originally planned to be a formal series of International Conferences on the Application of High Magnetic Fields in the Physics of Semiconductors, which was first started by Professor G. Landwehr in 1972 in WUrzburg as a satellite conference to the 11th Semiconductor Conference in Warsaw. The Conference in WUrzburg was con ducted in an informal atmosphere which was followed by three conferences, in WUrzburg in 1974 and 1976, and in Oxford in 1978. At the current Seminar the physics of magnetic materials was added to the scope of the Seminar, because high-field magnetism is also an important research area in the physics of high magnetic fields and is also one of the most active fields in physics in Japan. In the last decade, considerable effort has been devoted to develop the techniques for generating the high magnetic fields in many high-field labora tories in the world.

The magnetocaloric effect describes the change in temperature of a magnetic material under adiabatic conditions through the application or removal of an external magnetic field. This effect is particularly pronounced at temperatures and fields corresponding to magnetic phase transitions, and it is a powerful and widely used tool for investigating t

Someone lucky enough to live on Milwaukee’s near north side between 1888 and 1952 could experience the world without ever leaving the neighborhood. Nestled between North Seventh and Eighth Streets and West Chambers and Burleigh, Borchert Field was Milwaukee’s major sports venue for 64 years. In this rickety wooden stadium (originally called Athletic Park), Wisconsin residents had a close-up view of sports history in the making, along with rodeos, thrill shows, and even multiple eruptions of Mount Vesuvius. In Borchert Field, baseball historian Bob Buege introduces the famous and fascinating athletes who dazzled audiences in Milwaukee’s venerable ballpark. All the legendary baseball figures—the Bambino, Satchel Paige, Ty Cobb, Joltin’ Joe, Jackie Robinson, the Say Hey Kid—played there. Olympic heroes Jim Thorpe, Babe Didrikson, and Jesse Owens displayed their amazing talents in Borchert. Knute Rockne’s Fighting Irish competed there, and Curly Lambeau’s Green Bay Packers took the field 10 times. Buege tells stories of other monumental moments at Borchert as well, including a presidential visit, women ballplayers, the arrival of television broadcasting, the 1922 national balloon race, and an appearance by scat-singing bandleader Cab Calloway. Borchert Field is long gone, but every page of this book takes readers back to the sights, sounds, and spectacle of its heyday.

Encounters with the enigmatic, troubled genius of golf: Moe Norman. Hall of Fame Journalist, Lorne Rubenstein investigates what made Moe such a unique character in golf. When Moe died he had won almost every title in Canada and was praised by Tiger Woods as one of the few players to 'own' his swing. Yet he failed to make an impact on the wider world of golf, withdrawing from play at the Masters and crippled by insecurities and shyness. However he described himself as the 'happiest guy on two feet.' Rubenstein investigates the man behind the enigma.

In Ellis Island to Ebbets Field, Peter Levine vividly recounts the stories of Red Auerbach, Hank Greenberg, Moe Berg, Sid Luckman, Nat Holman, Benny Leonard, Barney Ross, Marty Glickman, and a host of others who became Jewish heroes and symbols of the difficult struggle for American success. From settlement houses and street corners, to Madison Square and Fenway Park, their experiences recall a time when Jewish males dominated sports like boxing and basketball, helping to smash stereotypes about Jewish weakness while instilling American Jews with a fierce pride in their strength and ability in the face of Nazi aggression, domestic anti-Semitism, and economic depression. Full of marvelous stories, anecdotes, and personalities, Ellis Island to Ebbets Field enhances our understanding of the Jewish-American experience as well as the struggles of other American minority groups.
