Book excerpt: Throughout the past five decades, surfers have been falsely given a bad reputation that stems mainly from fictional movies. They are portrayed as lazy, weed smoking, hippy, free-loaders with no ambition in life other than surfing. That is not reality. Books with a surfing theme all have one thing in common; they are documents about courage, pushing the limits, near death experiences, overcoming all obstacles, friendship and love. What outsiders do not realize is surfers have a unique and spiritual connection with the Earth and Mother Nature. Once it’s in the blood, it grabs hold of the soul and never let’s go of it. It changes a person, and in most cases, in a positive fashion. Before Steven K Craig was an author, a world famous artist, a champion Jet Ski racer or known for being a co-creator of the iconic metal band Slayer, he was a Surfer, and it was his love for surfing that paved the way for his future. Steven dreamed of surfing years before he held a surfboard in his hands. At a very young age, the ocean reached in and took hold of his soul. He became the stereotypical Southern California surfer before it was stereotypical. To him, it wasn't a lifestyle; it was a magical way of life. His story is a testament to why people should live life with passion, to its fullest and never give up on dreams. Only once in every generation, a surfer who is at the right place at the right time gets to experience what is referred to as “Big Wednesday. It’s the day they hope for and dream about. This is the day a surfer’s physical and mental abilities are put to the test and pushed beyond the limits. On that day, death is close at hand, and for those that emerge victorious, they go on to conquer the world. There is no more fear, only living for each and every moment afterwards. You do not need to be a surfer to enjoy this magical story. A marvelous tale for the young people of today about how a boy that was different didn’t follow trends or succumb to peer pressure conquered the world. People from all walks of life can learn what it is to truly be alive from the tale of a Surfer, even if they never grab a board and get in the water to take on the brutal monsters of the ocean, which only a true surfer has the courage to call “My Wave”.

Download or read book Pin Up Grrrls written by Maria Elena Buszek and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2006-05-31 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subverting stereotypical images of women, a new generation of feminist artists is remaking the pin-up, much as Annie Sprinkle, Cindy Sherman, and others did in the 1970s and 1980s. As shocking as contemporary feminist pin-ups are intended to be, perhaps more surprising is that the pin-up has been appropriated by women for their own empowerment since its inception more than a century ago. Pin-Up Grrrls tells the history of the pin-up from its birth, revealing how its development is intimately connected to the history of feminism. Maria Elena Buszek documents the genre’s 150-year history with more than 100 illustrations, many never before published. Beginning with the pin-up’s origins in mid-nineteenth-century carte-de-visite photographs of burlesque performers, Buszek explores how female sex symbols, including Adah Isaacs Menken and Lydia Thompson, fought to exert control over their own images. Buszek analyzes the evolution of the pin-up through the advent of the New Woman, the suffrage movement, fanzine photographs of early film stars, the Varga Girl illustrations that appeared in Esquire during World War II, the early years of Playboy magazine, and the recent revival of the genre in appropriations by third-wave feminist artists. A fascinating combination of art history and cultural history, Pin-Up Grrrls is the story of how women have publicly defined and represented their sexuality since the 1860s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exploration of our solar system by spacecraft has been one of the greatest scientific achievements of the twentieth century. The mapping of other worlds has resulted from numerous space missions by NASA, extending over many years. The data from these planetary missions have been synthesised by the US Geological Survey to produce detailed maps. Every planet, moon, or small body investigated in NASA missions is discussed and where appropriate mapped. Geological maps, reference maps, shaded relief maps, synthetic aperture radar mosaics and colour photomosaics marvellously present the features of planets and their satellites. This is truly a 'road map' of our solar system. All maps are fully indexed. The gazetteer lists the names of all features officially approved by the International Astronomical Union. The Compact NASA Atlas of the Solar System is the definitive reference atlas for planetary science.
