Rise: A Collection Inspired by Lift by Rebecca K. O'Connor (22 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

In celebration of the Kindle version release of LIFT, an award-winning falconry memoir, author Rebecca K. O'Connor shares a complementary collection of essays, short stories and poetry that further examines life in the shadow of a raptor's wings. LIFT, Rebecca K. O'Connor's arresting memoir of love, loss, relationships and one impossible peregrine falcon is further illuminated with this collection of writings on the world of falconry. The opening short story, "A Good Falconer Lets Go," about a teenage boy and his red-tailed hawk is a classic coming-of-age tale with a falconry twist. If you are a dog lover, "Heart to Tear" and "About a Dog", essays which read like O'Connor's love songs to the dogs of falconry will resonate with you, if not evoke a few tears. In short essays such as "The Knife" and "Storytelling" O'Connor explores early moments in falconry in the icy-clear voice readers grew to love in LIFT. The collection also includes a glossary on falconry and a bonus excerpt of her novel in progress, a post-apocalyptic wilderness adventure. If you have read LIFT and loved it, this short collection will add to your experience. If you've yet to read O'Connor's writing, RISE may encourage you to read more. ~~Praise for LIFT~~ **Novelist and nature reference author O'Connor (Falcon's Return) crafts a lyrical tribute to the spiritual connection between humans and birds in this memoir of the excruciating, transformative process of training a peregrine falcon: "Falconry is a religion, a way of thinking, a means of experiencing life." Indeed, readers will find almost as much spiritual content as natural. Despite O'Connor's icy-clear voice, her descriptions of training a young male falcon are fascinating for bird lovers and civilians alike: "when the falcon connects a high-speed dive... the duck remains a piece of the sky and only its body careens to earth." Surprisingly, periodic flashbacks to a troubled childhood -- an abusive stepfather, an absentee mother -- ...

Jews in the Gym: Judaism, Sports, and Athletics (Studies in Jewish Civilization Book 23) by Leonard J. Greenspoon (Purdue University Press) Price verified 7 hours ago

For some, the connection between Jews and athletics might seem far-fetched. But in fact, as is highlighted by the fourteen chapters in this collection, Jews have been participating in-and thinking about-sports for more than two thousand years. The articles in this volume scan a wide chronological range: from the Hellenistic period (first century BCE) to the most recent basketball season. The range of athletes covered is equally broad: from participants in Roman-style games to wrestlers, boxers, fencers, baseball players, and basketball stars. The authors of these essays, many of whom actively participate in athletics themselves, raise a number of intriguing questions, such as: What differing attitudes toward sports have Jews exhibited across periods and cultures? Is it possible to be a "good Jew" and a "great athlete"? In what sports have Jews excelled, and why? How have Jews overcome prejudices on the part of the general populace against a Jewish presence on the field or in the ring?

Owning the Olympics: Narratives of the New China (The New Media World) by Monroe Price (University of Michigan Press) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 8 hours ago

"A major contribution to the study of global events in times of global media. Owning the Olympics tests the possibilities and limits of the concept of 'media events' by analyzing the mega-event of the information age: the Beijing Olympics... A good read from cover to cover." -- Guobin Yang, Associate Professor, Asian/Middle Eastern Cultures & Sociology, Barnard College, Columbia University From the moment they were announced, the Beijing Games were a major media event and the focus of intense scrutiny and speculation. In contrast to earlier such events, however, the Beijing Games are also unfolding in a newly volatile global media environment that is no longer monopolized by broadcast media. The dramatic expansion of media outlets and the growth of mobile communications technology have changed the nature of media events, making it significantly more difficult to regulate them or control their meaning. This volatility is reflected in the multiple, well-publicized controversies characterizing the run-up to Beijing 2008. According to many Western commentators, the People's Republic of China seized the Olympics as an opportunity to reinvent itself as the "New China"---a global leader in economics, technology, and environmental issues, with an improving human-rights record. But China's maneuverings have also been hotly contested by diverse global voices, including prominent human-rights advocates, all seeking to displace the official story of the Games. Bringing together a distinguished group of scholars from Chinese studies, human rights, media studies, law, and other fields, Owning the Olympics reveals how multiple entities---including the Chinese Communist Party itself---seek to influence and control the narratives through which the Beijing Games will be understood. digitalculturebooks is an imprint of the University of Michigan Press and the Scholarly Publishing Office of the University of Michigan Library dedicated to publishing innovative and accessible work ...

Game of Privilege: An African American History of Golf (The John Hope Franklin Series in African American History and Culture) by Lane Demas (The University of North Carolina Press) (58 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

This groundbreaking history of African Americans and golf explores the role of race, class, and public space in golf course development, the stories of individual black golfers during the age of segregation, the legal battle to integrate public golf courses, and the little-known history of the United Golfers Association (UGA)--a black golf tour that operated from 1925 to 1975. Lane Demas charts how African Americans nationwide organized social campaigns, filed lawsuits, and went to jail in order to desegregate courses; he also provides dramatic stories of golfers who boldly confronted wider segregation more broadly in their local communities. As national civil rights organizations debated golf's symbolism and whether or not to pursue the game's integration, black players and caddies took matters into their own hands and helped shape its subculture, while UGA participants forged one of the most durable black sporting organizations in American history as they fought to join the white Professional Golfers' Association (PGA). From George F. Grant's invention of the golf tee in 1899 to the dominance of superstar Tiger Woods in the 1990s, this revelatory and comprehensive work challenges stereotypes and indeed the fundamental story of race and golf in American culture.

She says we need to keep things strictly professional from here on out, but what I have in mind has nothing to do with business and everything to do with pleasure. She'll need several good long rides in my saddle to learn my cowboy ways. And when she does, there'll be no turning back. If I have it my way, that little filly will be driving me wild for the rest of my life. Saddle up, Sugar. A new breed of cowboy-cavemen is here. They're dirty and filthy rich.

The Set Point: Securing the future of volleyball by Ary Graça (Editora Máquina de Livros) (5 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

"This book examines the trail blazed by the FIVB that culminated in the partnership with CVC Capital Partners. The authors explain each step of the way from the moment the FIVB's President acknowledged the lack of financial sustainability to secure the future of volleyball and his courageous decision to develop a new event based on cutting-edge technology, which led to financial innovation. The cutting-edge event is the Volleyball Nations League (VNL). It has three characteristics that fascinate the Volleyball Family. First, the determination of all parties involved in changing the sport, leveraging volleyball to the family entertainment industry. Second, the avenue of opportunities for innovation and sustainability opened by its implementation. Third, and most important for this book, it led the FIVB to CVC. However, sustainability does not take place overnight. The FIVB had to invest persistently in governance and in best management practices to reach the necessary state of preparedness before going to the market. Volleyball needed a shake-up. And that shake-up is happening."

Skate Life: Re-Imagining White Masculinity (Technologies of the Imagination: New Media in Everyday Life) by Emily Chivers Yochim (University of Michigan Press) (3 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

"Intellectually deft and lively to read, Skate Life is an important addition to the literature on youth cultures, contemporary masculinity, and the role of media in identity formation." ---Janice A. Radway, Northwestern University, author of Reading the Romance: Women, Patriarchy, and Popular Literature "With her elegant research design and sophisticated array of anthropological and media studies approaches, Emily Chivers Yochim has produced one of the best books about race, gender, and class that I have read in the last ten years. In a moment where celebratory studies of youth, youth subcultures, and their relationship to media abound, this book stands as a brilliantly argued analysis of the limitations of youth subcultures and their ambiguous relationship to mainstream commercial culture." ---Ellen Seiter, University of Southern California "Yochim has made a valuable contribution to media and cultural studies as well as youth and American studies by conducting this research and by coining the phrase 'corresponding cultures,' which conceptualizes the complex and dynamic processes skateboarders employ to negotiate their identities as part of both mainstream and counter-cultures." ---JoEllen Fisherkeller, New York University Skate Life examines how young male skateboarders use skate culture media in the production of their identities. Emily Chivers Yochim offers a comprehensive ethnographic analysis of an Ann Arbor, Michigan, skateboarding community, situating it within a larger historical examination of skateboarding's portrayal in mainstream media and a critique of mainstream, niche, and locally produced media texts (such as, for example, Jackass, Viva La Bam, and Dogtown and Z-Boys). The book uses these elements to argue that adolescent boys can both critique dominant norms of masculinity and maintain the power that white heterosexual masculinity offers. Additionally, Yochim uses these analyses to introduce the notion of "corresponding cultures," ...

The book includes a complete epilogue of the Comstocks' last years and fills in gaps from the 1953 edition. Described as serious legacy work, the book is an essential part of Cornell University history and an important piece of Cornell University Press history.

Nature Guiding by William Gould Vinal (Comstock Publishing Associates) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

Nature Guiding is the science of inculcating nature enthusiasm, nature principles, and nature facts into the spirit of individuals. "Doing" nature-study means observing, wondering, and solving problems. It could include collecting, building, measuring, painting, planning, writing, touching, experimenting or any of a wide range of other activities. Most importantly, it allows children to be "original investigators." This book is intended as a resource for teachers and students engaged in nature study at summer camps and in schools. William Gould Vinal believed that the teacher of nature study should be "in sympathy with the simple life and the country way," that the nature study should emphasize observation of the interactions of plants and animals in their environment, and not be reduced to matters of taxonomy and anatomy. In Nature Guiding, he offers advice to camp counselors and school teachers on incorporating nature study into everyday activities, as well as suggestions for parents and others about using visits to state and national parks to teach nature lore.

He retreats into the world of fly fishing and fly casting, and meets unforgettable anglers like: Doc, a Civil War veteran, who tells how, after he enlisted in return for drinking money, he was unexpectedly changed by the horror of war; Izzy, a mysterious immigrant, who, in his way, teaches Ian perhaps the most important lesson of long-distance fly casting; and George M. L. La Branche who, though torn by self-doubt, writes the book that revolutionizes fly fishing. And so, these anglers help change Ian's hopes and values. Though his father questions his courage, Ian decides to become a teacher instead of a lawyer, and moves near the beautiful Beaverkill River, the birthplace of fly fishing in America. But tragedy still follows him. Torn by grief, he curses the world and loses faith in it - until, almost by accident, he finds a way to come to terms. How? The answer will surprise you. "A maverick and memorable book - I really enjoyed it." - Nick Lyons, author, Full Creel "I simply enjoyed the heck out of it." - Eric Peper, coauthor, Fly Fishing The Beaverkill "An unforgettable cast of characters." - Jim Witty, Bend Bulletin "The novel is well-written, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and highly recommend it whether you're a fly fisher or not." - John Pitarresi, Utica Observer-Dispatch "An engaging tale of a young man coming of age." - Lee Murdock, Fly Fish Magazine. "A compelling novel that describes one fly caster's search for personal peace." - Bill AuCoin, the Aucoin Report "Great book Mr. Kadish!" - Bill Anderson, Trout Waders.

The eNotated Sailing Alone Around the World by Joshua Slocum (66 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Though most eBooks are simple conversions of paper books, the "eNotated Sailing Alone" is a completely new approach that takes advantage of the potential eBook technology offers to extend and enrich Slocum's writing in a way that's convenient to use while still unobtrusive to the reader. Based on the 1901 edition of "Sailing Alone Around the World" and including more than 60 original illustrations, this eNotated edition extends Slocum's writing by providing a new layer of information behind the text the reader can access before, during, and after each chapter. For instance, in Chapter 15, when Slocum writes, "Taking things by and large as sailors say... ," Thomerson's eNotation tells us Slocum means "Overall, or in most cases" and that "Sailing 'by' means toward the wind, sailing 'large' means away from the wind. Hence 'by and large' encompasses most of the possible options and implies 'most of the time'". Joshua Slocum was the first person to sail solo around the world and his account of the voyage is adventure writing at its best - but his colorful story telling is filled with 19th century sailing terms, geographical references, and idioms that may be lost to the modern reader. Chris Thomerson, a lifelong sailor and student of maritime history, provides the background and explanations readers need to thoroughly understand, appreciate, and enjoy Slocum's classic by adding hundreds of electronic annotations linked to words and phrases in Slocum's original text. If you are going to read Slocum for the first time - or reread him after some years - you will best enjoy and most throughly understand him with this unique eNotated edition.

Prepared: The 8 Secret Skills of an Ex-IDF Special Forces Operator That Will Keep You Safe - Basic Guide by Roy Shepard (650 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Learn the 8 secret skills of an Ex-IDF Special Forces operator that will keep you safe and prepare you for any situation - from a street mugging all the way to a full blown global catastrophe! "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you." Joseph Heller, Catch-22 This is a great start to becoming more prepared for any situation. Our world is truly strange that so many good and helpful people find themselves preyed upon by the criminal elements. In case of an emergency or a catastrophe those odds may become even worst. My name is Roy Shepard and I'm a former IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) Special Forces Operator. During my military service, I took part in countless missions behind enemy lines and later trained young cadets as a Master Sergeant. I specialize in weapons training, stealth and camouflage, and Krav-Maga. I've been in active reserve duty for the past 20 years and spent much of that time formulating and implementing defense strategies and drills in military bases all over Israel. Highly trained in martial arts, I specialize in Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Aikido, and Russian Systema -- with both hand-to-hand combat and melee weapon handling. I am also an expert marksman with both close-quarters and long-range weapons. The IDF is one of the most effective militaries in the world with proven strategies and tactics that have kept Israel safe for the last 70 years. The harsh reality is that Israel is a small country surrounded by hostile nations that have been intent on destroying it since it was formed in 1948. The IDF has defended Israel in eight full-out wars and fended off many incursions and terrorist attacks. The skills that I'm about to share with you are the same ones used by the IDF Special Forces Operators to stay safe in hostile situations and will allow you to do so as well. Be it fending off a mugger in a dark parking lot or surviving a post-catastrophe scenario. The reality is that we are always only moments away from danger ...

Muscle Myths: 50 Health & Fitness Mistakes You Don't Know You're Making (The Build Muscle, Get Lean, and Stay Healthy Series) by Michael Matthews (Oculus Publishers) (1,046 Review)    Price verified 15 hours ago

If you've ever felt lost in the sea of contradictory training and diet advice out there and you just want to know once and for all what works and what doesn't -- what's scientifically true and what's false -- when it comes to building muscle and getting ripped, then you need to read this book. Let me ask you a question. Do any of the following claims sound familiar? "I have bad genetics -- I'm a 'hardgainer.'" "You have to work your abs more to get a six-pack." "When doing cardio, you want your heart rate in the 'fat burning zone.'" "You have to do cardio for 20 minutes before your body starts burning fat." "Don't eat at night if you want to lose weight." "Steroids make you look great." "I'm overweight because I have a slow metabolism." You've probably heard one or more of these statements before, and the sad truth is lies like these have ruined many people's fitness ambitions. There are many, many more. Thanks to the overwhelming amount of fitness pseudo-science and lies being pushed on us every day by bogus magazines and self-styled "gurus," it's becoming harder and harder to get in shape. Muscle Myths was written to debunk the most commonplace and harmful gimmicks, fads, myths, and misinformation in the health and fitness industry. Here are just some of the things you'll learn in this book: Why you don't have to cut carbohydrates (carbs), or fat, or eat weird combinations of food to lose weight. The truth about supplements and why 99% of them are a complete waste of money (and the few that are actually scientifically proven to work). What it actually takes to "tone up" -- and it's not doing "shaping exercises" (these don't exist) or doing a million reps every workout. Why women shouldn't be training differently than men if they want the lean, toned, and sexy type of body that they see in magazines, TV shows, and movies. The scientific secrets of getting a six-pack. Forget 6-minute gimmicks, doing endless crunches, and hours of grueling cardio ...

Intro to Metabolic Enhancement Training (MET): Two Metabolic Weight Training Conditioning Programs for Fat Loss and Muscle Gain by Scott Abel (178 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Metabolic Enhancement Training or just "MET," was designed to improve conditioning, build muscle and induce hypertrophy, and speed up the metabolism. Why do gymnasts, sprinters, and certain positions in the NFL look great year-round? What lessons can we learn from their training and training programs? Many of these athletes look as though they could step onto a bodybuilding stage "contest ready" and wipe the floor with the actual bodybuilders there, all without having to diet down for months on end, or doing endless bouts of cardio! They just look great every month of the year. MET is the strategic combination of functional training movements with traditional bodybuilding training methods to induce hypertrophy, build muscle, burn fat, and increase your metabolism. Scott's been using it with his coaching clients for over a decade now. It's often used in conjunction with Scott's Cycle Diet approach for staying lean year round while gaining muscle. Whether you're looking for conditioning, muscle growth, training for a fast metabolism or just a workout to help you get abs, Metabolic Enhancement Training can help by introducing new totally training stimuli and movements into your current regimen. This booklet is an introduction to MET, with a full and complete 4-day program, plus a "figure" variation. Included are two 4-Day MET Hybrid Programs, consisting of various sets of quad-plexes. These are training circuits where you do the first set of exercise A, B, C, and D one after the other before taking a rest, then you go on to your second set. However, with both variations of these circuit training programs, there are specific guidelines to build up to the full four exercises over a few weeks, and then to taper down again at the end of the program. (For example, you start with just doing exercises A and B in the first week.) Both versions are good for the whole body, though the figure variation was designed for female figure competitors, so there's a bit more ...
