Download or read book Anoafale O Le Gagana Ma Le Aganuu written by Pemerika L. Tauiliili and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Language and culture can be easily forgotten especially in today's society where it is not spoken and practiced all the time. Compounding the problem is the lack of written litterature, competition with other languages, especially the English language, the advent of modern technological advances promoting other languages, and the migration of Samoans to foreign lands. In the "Anoafale" the author tries to script Samoan cultural practices and language used during cultural ceremonies. Much of this appropriate language is foreign to many Samoans, even adults. These practices and ceremonial words were observed and learned by the author during his life time. The Kava ceremony, the presentaion of foods and gifts, the duties of the talking chief to his high chief are some of the etiquettes that soon will be forgotten if not written, spoken and practiced.

Download or read book The Phenomenon written by Rick Ankiel and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rick Ankiel had the talent to be one of the best pitchers ever. Then, one day, he lost it. The Phenomenon is the story of how St. Louis Cardinals prodigy Rick Ankiel lost his once-in-a-generation ability to pitch -- not due to an injury or a bolt of lightning, but a mysterious anxiety condition widely known as "the Yips." It came without warning, in the middle of a playoff game, with millions of people watching. And it has never gone away. Yet the true test of Ankiel's character came not on the mound, but in the long days and nights that followed as he searched for a way to get back in the game. For four and a half years, he fought the Yips with every arrow in his quiver: psychotherapy, medication, deep-breathing exercises, self-help books, and, eventually, vodka. And then, after reconsidering his whole life at the age of twenty-five, Ankiel made an amazing turnaround: returning to the Major Leagues as a hitter and playing seven successful seasons. This book is an incredible story about a universal experience -- pressure -- and what happened when a person on the brink had to make a choice about who he was going to be.
