Download or read book Shots Shooters written by Michael Butt and published by Dog n Bone. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You have in your hands 50 recipes for the finest drinks you can down in one mouthful In bars up and down the country there’ll be someone forcing the rest of their party to endure the experience of a rancid shot of cheap tequila or attempt to keep down some cut-price concoction. We’ve all been there, and felt the effect the following morning, but shots (drinks made from only alcoholic ingredients and designed to be consumed in one) and shooters (drinks consisting of both spirit and non-alcoholic ingredients that can be downed in one) don’t always have to be a punishment. With some good quality ingredients they can actually be something to enjoy rather than to make you retch. Shots and Shooters explains 50 different ways to down a small amount of booze... fast—from elborate, eye-catching creations through to tasty combinations that can be mixed in seconds—ensuring your party gets started in the best way possible. There is also a section on classic shorts, examining the traditions and rituals associated with drinking neat spirits like absinthe, tequila, and bourbon. Of course, it wouldn’t be right to have all this pleasure without a bit of pain, so also included are a few cheeky recipes that can be used as forfeits for some of the unique and inventive drinking games also supplied in the last chapter.

Book excerpt: JACOBS: For the last three years, I've lived and breathed hockey with one goal: team captain. There's only one thing standing in my way.TJ Beckett. Beck is irresponsible and immature, and I've hated him since the moment we met freshman year. Yet, the coaches see something in him I obviously can't, and they refuse to choose between us. The captain spot is going to a team vote. And the team thinks that what we need are a bunch of challenges to prove our worth. Challenges that have nothing to do with hockey. Challenges that are throwing me and Beck together. And he's still as infuriating as ever. BECK: I have no idea why Christopher Jacobs hates me, and I can't say I care. I like pushing his buttons, but the guy needs to loosen up. I'm going to win these stupid challenges easily and spend my senior year as hockey king on this campus. Tormenting Jacobs at the same time will just be a bonus. Even if I'm getting confusing feelings toward him, I won't let it hold me back.

Download or read book 67 Shots written by Howard Means and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2016-04-12 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At midday on May 4, 1970, after three days of protests, several thousand students and the Ohio National Guard faced off at opposite ends of the grassy campus Commons at Kent State University. At noon, the Guard moved out. Twenty-four minutes later, Guardsmen launched a 13-second, 67-shot barrage that left four students dead and nine wounded, one paralyzed for life. The story doesn't end there, though. A horror of far greater proportions was narrowly averted minutes later when the Guard and students reassembled on the Commons. The Kent State shootings were both unavoidable and preventable: unavoidable in that all the discordant forces of a turbulent decade flowed together on May 4, 1970, on one Ohio campus; preventable in that every party to the tragedy made the wrong choices at the wrong time in the wrong place. Using the university's recently available oral-history collection supplemented by extensive new interviewing, Means tells the story of this iconic American moment through the eyes and memories of those who were there, and skillfully situates it in the context of a tumultuous era.

Download or read book Afraid of All the Things written by Scarlet Hiltibidal and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the gospel say about your fears? What does it say about the irrational ones, like sinkholes in the Target parking lot? How does it speak to the rational ones, like pet scan predictions? And does the gospel have a word for the fears you feel you'll have for life, like the possibility of losing the one you love most? Growing up in the green room of SNL, being born to a fire-eater and adopted by a SWAT cop, having internal organs explode, and adopting a deaf girl from China, Scarlet Hiltibidal has been given some strange life experiences—and lived in fear through most of them. But life changed for Scarlet when she learned to hold the gospel up to her fears. She realized that though she can't fix herself or protect herself, Jesus walked into this broken, sad, scary place to rescue, love, and cast out her—and your—fear. Seeing life in light of the cross will help you avoid fear, overcome fear when you can’t avoid it, and live beyond fear when you don’t overcome it. You don't have to be afraid of all the things.
