Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the seven billion humans on this planet, one of them is your twin flame: that one person you are destined to feel connected to, on a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual level... It's quite beautiful when you consider it, or maybe that's just the whisky talking? Keith Myatt has been living the dream - born into money, women all over the world, cruising through his family owned hotels, pretending to work, travelling the world, you name it, he's done it. But the dream has soured and he's just about ready to settle down and find his one true love. Only problem? You know all that romance stuff? Impress a girl, have great sex, live happily ever after. Not as easy as it sounds. However, all is not lost. There's an entire sub-culture of people dedicated to the idea of a 'twin flame'. One soul split in two. Complete only when they're together. It sounds crazy, but could they actually be onto something? Wouldn't it be wonderful to have such a deep connection with the love of your life? There's a moment of clarity - Keith's other half is out there...somewhere. Suddenly, Keith's a determined man with a new direction. Intent on finding his soul mate, he sets off across America and Europe in a funny, if not unconventional attempt at locating The One. A cynically humorous and heart-warming take on love, self improvement, and whether or not The One is always the one we think she is.

Although, Flutter goes much further with Flame. Flame is an engine for creating 2D games with Flutter; Its installation is extremely simple since Flame is nothing more than a pub package; thus, with this, we can create 2D games with Flame for mobile, desktop and web. With Flame, we can create components, which have been the equivalent of widgets in Flutter and where the components are nothing more than an element of our game, such as a player, an enemy, the background, a consumable, etc; and each component contains the implementation for their operation; for example, in the case of a player or player, it contains the logic to move it, change animations, control lives, consumables, etc; and through a master class, we can organize all the logic of these components.

Two years before, he'd had a love affair with a construction worker. Then during the school holidays he'd tried out a new role, dressing and living as a woman in a Midlands town. Now it had to be London and the bright lights. So when his teacher told him he'd no ambition, Stephen just kept dumb and thought to himself: 'I'm not going to stay around here working in a factory, honey. I'm going OUT THERE, where there's LIFE. I'm going to be a prostitute, just like my mum.' Stephen became Flame - and this is his true story."--Page [4] of cover.

People lived because she killed. People died because he lived. Zafira is the Hunter, disguising herself as a man when she braves the cursed forest of the Arz to feed her people. Nasir is the Prince of Death, assassinating those foolish enough to defy his autocratic father, the sultan. If Zafira was exposed as a girl, all of her achievements would be rejected; if Nasir displayed his compassion, his father would punish him in the most brutal of ways. Both Zafira and Nasir are legends in the kingdom of Arawiya—but neither wants to be. War is brewing, and the Arz sweeps closer with each passing day, engulfing the land in shadow. When Zafira embarks on a quest to uncover a lost artifact that can restore magic to her suffering world and stop the Arz, Nasir is sent by the sultan on a similar mission: retrieve the artifact and kill the Hunter. But an ancient evil stirs as their journey unfolds—and the prize they seek may pose a threat greater than either can imagine.

Download or read book Keepers of the Flame written by Travis Vogan and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NFL Films changed the way Americans view football. Keepers of the Flame: NFL Films and the Rise of Sports Media traces the subsidiary's development from a small independent film production company to the marketing machine that Sports Illustrated named "perhaps the most effective propaganda organ in the history of corporate America." Drawing on research at the NFL Films Archive and the Pro Football Hall of Fame and interviews with media pioneer Steve Sabol and others, Travis Vogan shows how NFL Films has constructed a consistent, romanticized, and remarkably visible mythology for the National Football League. The company packages football as a visceral and dramatic sequence of violent, beautiful, graceful, and heroic gridiron battles. Historically proven formulas for presentation--such as the dramatic voiceovers once provided by John Facenda's baritone, the soaring scores of Sam Spence's rousing background music, and the epic poetry found in Steve Sabol's scripts--are still used today. From the Vincent Price-narrated Strange but True Football Stories to the currently running series Hard Knocks, NFL Films distinguishes the NFL from other sports organizations and from other media and entertainment. Vogan tells the larger story of the company's relationship with and vast influence on our culture's representations of sport, the expansion of sports television beyond live game broadcasts, and the emergence of cable television and Internet sports media. Keepers of the Flame: NFL Films and the Rise of Sports Media presents sports media as an integral facet of American popular culture and NFL Films as key to the transformation of professional football into the national obsession commonly known as America's Game.

Download or read book Keepers of the Flame written by Robert M. Hazen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For, Lo! We live in an Iron Age--In the age of Steam and Fire!" wrote a poet mesmerized by the engines that were transforming American transportation, agriculture, and industry during his lifetime. Indeed, by the nineteenth century fire had become America's leitmotif--for good and for ill. "Keeping the flame" was deadly serious: even the slightest lapse of attention could convert a fire from friendly ally to ravaging destroyer. To examine the cultural context of fire in "combustible America," Margaret Hazen and Robert Hazen gather more than a hundred illustrations, most never before published, together with anecdotes and information from hundreds of original sources, including newspapers, diaries, company records, popular fiction, art, and music. What results is an immensely entertaining and encyclopedic history that ranges from stories of the tragic "great fires" of the century to fire imagery in folktales and popular literature. Dealing more with technology than with fire in nature, the book provides a vast amount of information on fire manipulation and prevention in urban life. Hazen and Hazen discuss the people who worked with fire--or against it. Founders, gaffers, blacksmiths, boilers at saltworks, and housewives knew how to "read" a fire and employ it for their purposes. A few dedicated investigators inquired about the scientific nature of heat and flame. And firefighters gradually progressed from "bucket brigades" to "using fire to fight fire" with the newly invented steam engine. The colorful stories of these Americans--the risks they took and the rewards they received--will fascinate not only social historians but also a broad audience of general readers.
