Set in a courtroom in 1878 Victorian England, the play follows the trial of Mr. Jake Ashwood, a bladesmith's apprentice, for the murder of Mr. Vincent Vangilder at Mr. Vangilder's photographic studio. The counsels for the prosecution and for the defence examine and cross-examine the police constable first on the scene, then Mr. Vangilder's neighbour, Mr. Ashwood's best friend, and finally Mr. Ashwood himself. After summations by the counsels and by the judge, the audience acts as jury to decide if Mr. Ashwood is guilty or not guilty. The play has two endings depending on the verdict reached. This is a 45 minute play suitable for a small group of school children or young actors to perform. It contains lots of references and information about ordinary lives from the late 1800s.

Fit With Healthy Fascia: How to reduce your pain and improve your well-being in just 7 minutes a day by Keven England (5 Reviews)    Price verified 24 minutes ago

You also belong to the group of those who are plagued by pain more or less frequently? Headaches, back pain, pain in the shoulder, arm, hip or knee joints? Perhaps you have recently had surgery because the pain in your hip or knee joint has become too much, and you would like to regain your old mobility. Perhaps you don't have any of these enumerated pains (yet), but you are very interested in your own health and would like to take preventive measures to ensure that such problems do not arise in the first place. One possible cause for the listed pains is our sedentary leisure and work behavior. Many of us sit from morning to night either in the car, on the office chair or on the couch in front of the television. Various jobs can be quite movement-intensive, for example waitresses or assembly line workers, but these activities often lead to one-sided stress and muscular imbalances. This is also true if you play certain sports (e.g. tennis, golf) very intensively. We all know that more and targeted exercise can help restore and sustain our health and well-being. But in many cases, we are too sluggish to put into practice our good intention to start an exercise program and follow it for longer. The "inner pig" sends his greetings and often excuses our passivity with the pain or with the fact that there is no time for additional exercise. Another saying is: "I would like to do something, but I don't know what". The book aims to help readers get a handle on these problems. The book is structured so that you can start immediately. Simply open the chapter "Your 10 Fascia Programs" and follow the instructions to perform a 7-minute basic program. You will immediately feel how the exercises have a positive effect on your condition. Further programs specifically address everyday demands (e.g. sitting for long periods of time) or certain areas of pain (e.g. lower back). The following was particularly important for the compilation of the programs: simple exercises that can ...

The Ultimate Electric Smoker Cookbook: Irresistible Smoker Recipes and a Step-By-Step Guide That Will Turn You Into a Pitmaster in No Time at All by Melissa Johnson (85 Reviews)    Price verified 45 minutes ago

Craving the smoky goodness of brisket or pulled pork? This is the cookbook for you! Something magical happens to food when you use smoke. However, traditional smokers are expensive, and can be unsafe and challenging to use. Electric smokers, on the other hand, are equipped with the latest safety features and technology, so smoking can be easy. In this book, you'll learn how to shop for electric smokers by looking at features like: • Temperature control • Size • Construction material • Budget Once you have your smoker, what can you smoke? The chapter on ingredients lays out an easy guide for choosing food and what tends to turn out really well in a smoker. Tough and fatty cuts do best, since the low and slow heat breaks down connective tissues and renders fat in a way other cooking methods don't. You can also smoke vegetables, fruit, and - as you'll see in the recipes - some other surprising foods. This book is packed with recipes designed for both beginners and more experienced cooks. Each one has nutritional info, wood chip recommendations, and step-by-step instructions. You'll make dishes like: • Cajun chicken • Homemade smoked bacon • Blackberry smoked ribs • Texas-style brisket • Smoked cocoa-pepper ribs • Smoked shrimp • Candied salmon • Smoked mac 'n cheese • Smoky lemon bars • Smoked cheesecake There's also a section on ideas for dry rubs, sauces, and brines. You have everything you need to get started! If you've been putting off smoking because it seems intimidating, this book demystifies all its aspects, and sets you up for a successful and delicious experience. Your family, friends, and anyone who walks by your house while your smoker is up and running will not be able to resist asking, "What's cooking?"

Composed from the journals of explorer M.G. Hawking's five years in remote areas of the Himalayas, this book transports the reader into a legendary lost world, a journey that leads to the discovery of the most refined and powerful knowledge possessed by the human race. Many years ago, on an extended trek into an inner region of the vast wilderness of the Great Himalayan Range, Hawking chanced on an unexpected find. In a majestic valley surrounded by towering ice peaks, he encountered a beautiful small village. In that community, called Siddhalaya by its residents, he had the privilege of meeting a number of truly extraordinary men and women. This encounter marked the beginning of sixty-two months Hawking spent in the Himalayan regions of Nepal and Tibet, during which time he kept detailed records of his adventures, experiences, and conversations with those highly enlightened individuals. Over the past several years the team at Wisdom Masters Press, in association with Hawking, has worked diligently to compose a series of books based on his journals and field notes. This was a daunting assignment; Hawking had accumulated hundreds of pages of hand-written journal entries and field notes, all of which had to be sorted and cataloged. Yet it was a fascinating if formidable task, one that could not have been accomplished without the assistance and encouragement of some of the extraordinary individuals Hawking met in the Himalayas, all of whom you will meet in the pages of our books.
