Download or read book Ultimate Glory written by David Gessner and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story of obsession, glory, and the wild early days of Ultimate Frisbee. David Gessner devoted his twenties to a cultish sport called Ultimate Frisbee. Like his teammates and rivals, he trained for countless hours, sacrificing his body and potential career for a chance at fleeting glory without fortune or fame. His only goal: to win Nationals and go down in Ultimate history as one of the greatest athletes no one has ever heard of. With humor and raw honesty, Gessner explores what it means to devote one’s life to something that many consider ridiculous. Today, Ultimate is played by millions, but in the 1980s, it was an obscure sport with a (mostly) undeserved stoner reputation. Its early heroes were as scrappy as the sport they loved, driven by fierce competition, intense rivalries, epic parties, and the noble ideals of the Spirit of the Game. Ultimate Glory is a portrait of the artist as a young ruffian. Gessner shares the field and his seemingly insane obsession with a cast of closely knit, larger-than-life characters. As his sport grows up, so does he, and eventually he gives up chasing flying discs to pursue a career as a writer. But he never forgets his love for this misunderstood sport and the rare sense of purpose he attained as a member of its priesthood.
Download or read book The Other End of the Leash written by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
Download or read book 7081 written by Deirdre Gould and published by Deirdre Gould. This book was released on 2024-01-28 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the penal colony of Vesta, information is currency. Not the ore the prisoners dig up to be sold far away on Earth, nor the drab chlorella sludge they subsist on. Under the watchful eye of the Shepherds-- machines of metal and math-- there are no luxuries or contraband. There is nothing to trade except memories of Earth. Information is used to trade jobs, to make allies and most importantly, to bribe the Shepherds who guard them. But Eenon Pak is not brilliant and has already been away from Earth for several years. On Vesta, he is poor. His assigned Shepherd, 7081, seems at best indifferent to him and at times even hostile. Assuming they are simply programmed that way, Eenon pays little attention to his Shepherd's curt responses until he realizes that 7081 is as self-aware as Eenon is. And just as trapped. But just as information can be used to bribe and ingratiate the prisoners to the Shepherds, it can also be stripped from them for violating prison rules. Eenon doesn't know what the previous prisoner did to scramble 7081's memory and neither does his Shepherd. One influential prisoner, Darren, is holding the key to 7081's memories hostage and preventing any of the other prisoners from revealing too much. Unwilling to pay the asked ransom, his Shepherd is stuck and Eenon does not like the stranglehold Darren has over the colony. Nor the cruelty Darren exhibits to other prisoners. From the beginning, Eenon is isolated by both Darren's direction and 7081's misery. Tied permanently together, Eenon faces a life sentence of loneliness unless something changes. He has no power, he has no possessions to barter with, and he has no friends, but he is resolved to recovering 7081's data for both of their sakes. Content Guidance: This story has themes of imprisonment and brief scenes of intense physical pain and torture
Download or read book We Will Feast written by Kendall Vanderslice and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the practice of eating together as Christian worship The gospel story is filled with meals. It opens in a garden and ends in a feast. Records of the early church suggest that believers met for worship primarily through eating meals. Over time, though, churches have lost focus on the centrality of food— and with it a powerful tool for unifying Christ’s diverse body. But today a new movement is under way, bringing Christians of every denomination, age, race, and sexual orientation together around dinner tables. Men and women nervous about stepping through church doors are finding God in new ways as they eat together. Kendall Vanderslice shares stories of churches worshiping around the table, introducing readers to the rising contemporary dinner-church movement. We Will Feast provides vision and inspiration to readers longing to experience community in a real, physical way.
