Book excerpt: An all-encompassing look at the penalty kick, soccer’s all-or-nothing play—its legendary moments and the secrets to its success No stretch of grass has been the site of more glory or heartbreak in the world of sports than the few dozen paces between goalkeeper and penalty kicker in soccer. In theory, it’s simple: place the ball beyond a single defender and secure a place in history. But once the chosen players make the lonely march from their respective sides of the pitch, everything changes, all bets are off, and anything can happen. Drawing from the hard-won lessons of legendary games, in-depth statistical analysis, expert opinion, and the firsthand experience of coaches and players from around the world, journalist Ben Lyttleton offers insight into the diverse attitudes, tactics, and techniques that separate success from failure in one of the highest-pressure situations sports has to offer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back cover description Experience the remarkable journey of a boy from New York who begins life behind the eight ball. Growing up on the edge of poverty, he battles dyslexia and endures the pain dealt by an alcoholic father. From his single mother he learns grit, empathy, and selflessness. At age 12, when he is still torn between right and wrong, he is introduced to soccer. The Beautiful Game saves his life. It becomes his life. Never mind that outside his neighborhood, soccer is seen as an ethnic cult, a sport played by “candy asses” and people who do not speak English. Nothing dents the boy’s will. He follows his idol, Pelé, like a North Star. He dreams of becoming a pro. His dream becomes an obsession, his exit ramp off a road that would have left him “dead or in jail.” In his early teens, this lad plays for coaches who shape him as a player and a man. He struggles in school, but he has found his purpose. He plays or practices fifty hours a week. Some days he hitchhikes to games, other days he spends entire afternoons lashing balls off the brick wall of Cinema 45. No one will outwork him; nothing will distract him. Seven years after he first touches a ball, Tom Mulroy becomes a professional soccer player. And then, against billion-to-one odds, Soccer Tom experiences the dream of every soccer player and fan around the world.

Download or read book Cheng Tzu s Thirteen Treatises on T ai Chi Ch uan written by Cheng Man-ch'ing á and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2008-06-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of people worldwide practice t’ai chi, the most popular form of which was codified beginning in the 1960s by Cheng Man Ch’ing. In this scholarly yet practical book, Professor Cheng shows precisely how the postures and moves of t’ai chi work, with examples from anatomy and physics, both internally as energetic principles and externally on opponents. He clarifies the spheres, triangles, and centripetal and centrifugal forces within physical exchanges such as push-hands. Contrasting Western and Chinese techniques of healing, he also explores the relationships of organs to one another in pathology and the necessary dynamics of treatment. Professor Cheng explains how the practitioner may serve as his or her own doctor and, likewise, as the physician or trainer of an attacker. The martial arts, he says, are not a special case of unusual power, simply an aspect of adapting natural and cosmic law to circumstance. This edition of the classic text contains 13 major essays; oral secrets from Cheng’s teacher Yang Cheng’fu; a Q&A with commentary on martial arts classics; the author’s application and functions of each of the 37 postures of the short form, with the original photographs of him as a young man; two prefaces; and much more.
