Описание: Sex, intrigue and adultery in the world of high politics and huge wealth in late eighteenth-century England.
Описание: George Foreman knows what it's like to get knocked down -- in the ring and in life -- and he knows how to get back up again. Two-time heavyweight boxing champion of the world, he knows what it takes to succeed. He has a wealth of life experience to share, and in George Foreman's Guide to Life: How to Get Up Off the Canvas When Life Knocks You Down he does just that. Here's what George has to say about: TAKING ADVICE: The real answers you are looking for are inside of you. The hard part is being able to hear them. BEING AFRAID OF CHANGE: Be afraid to stay where you are in life. Stepping out...is what makes you good, better, and even the best at what you're doing. GETTING OLDER: Old age is not something that happens to you; it's a choice you make. You can look in the mirror and cry...or you can look in that mirror...and dream another dream. LEARNING FROM YOUR MISTAKES: I try to let the past stay where it is and let today speak for itself....Learn from your mistakes but don't be chained to them. DETERMINATION: There are always others trying to get to the same goal you are, only they decide to stop halfway down the road. And when they walk away, they leave the road paved for you. MARRIAGE: Let every day be like the first day you fell in love. It's about trying to put your best self forward, not just to others but to the one you've pledged your life to. CHILDREN: I believe how you teach your kids life's lessons is as important as what you teach them. You've got to love kids into another gear.

Описание: The extended title of The Cherokee Physician serves as an apt summary of its contents. The book was the result of a remarkable collaboration between James Mahoney, an Irish American and native Tennesseean, and Richard Foreman, whose parental ancestry was probably Scottish and Cherokee. Typical of its time, the book dispenses moral advice as cheerfully as medical advice. Needless to say, much of its advice flies in the face of modern medical practice and should not be applied. Foreman and Mahoney warn against sitting by an open window and offer conjecture, now disproven, about the pathologies of illnesses such as yellow fever and undulant fever (""milk sickness""). On the other hand, some of its cures have come into vogue or else find modern scientific endorsement, with examples from the text including the anti-inflammatory properties of red pepper and the usefulness of the European plantain.
The volume has intrigued homeopathic practitioners through the years, and attracted the interest of contemporaneous practitioners, including, for instance, one doctor who wrote to the Therapeutic Gazette (September 1881) to enthusiastically endorse its cure for ""gravel"" through Gravel Weed (Actinomeris Helianthoides). ""Gravel"" translates to kidney stones in contemporary parlance; modern homeopathic sources say little about the common flower's use as a diuretic, furnishing one example of knowledge in The Cherokee Physician that has escaped modern evaluation. The book offers, by slant, interesting ethnographic observations, equally unproven.

Описание: Plays with Films brings together texts of the final three productions of Richard Foreman's Ontological-Hysteric Theater at St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery: Zomboid (2006), Wake Up Mr. Sleepy Your Unconscious Mind is Dead (2007), and Deep Trance Behavior in Potatoland (2008). In these three exhilarating and challenging works, Foreman turns to a meditation on the mechanical and digital reproductions of screen images within the discipline of theater, and thereby recalibrates and expands the potential relationship we can have with the live art that is theater. Extending the model of theater as a "reverberating machine," Foreman's use of film in these plays is intimately integrated into the complex network of impulse generators, creating an unprecedented experience of multi-dimensional scriptural space, a new kind of total theater that effectively recharges and redirects the issues of consciousness he has been exploring with indefatigable intensity since the establishment of his theater in 1968. The bodied reality of theatrical experience, and the recognition of unconsciousness within that experience, becomes more fraught with peril in today's screened world. These plays, originally conceived as his final theater works (though he did change his mind), engage in ways that continue his ambition to upend habitual thinking and may prove transformative for the individual's ability to interpret and understand the threats of deadening conformity and loss of identity through the new digital culture. Employing an innovative typographical presentation, Plays with Films demonstrates how America's most daring theater artist alchemizes reproducible and non-reproducible reality into a unique contemplation of the project of self-construction in the 21st century.

Описание: Step-by-step instructions with more than 300 illustrations "A look at the almost visionary techniques of one of the most revolutionary horsemen our country has seen."-Horse Illustrated Monte Foreman was one of America's foremost trainers of horses and riders, and many advances in western training have come from his years of research into the action and interaction of horse and rider-research aimed at improving their athletic ability as a team. It was Foreman who first applied still and motion-picture photography to the sport of riding, to determine beyond doubt how horses move most naturally and efficiently. His training methods are applicable to all kinds of western and English riding. Monte Foreman's Horse-Training Science introduces beginning and advanced riders to Foreman's method, which he taught successfully in clinics for many years with Patrick Wyse, his first accredited instructor. Step-by-step instructions and more than 300 photographs and drawings explain how to execute the turn on the forehand, the side pass, leads, the posting trot and the natural depart, flying lead changes, balanced stops, rolls, and spins. The horse-and-rider team that becomes proficient in the Foreman method will enter a whole new world of enjoyment, performance skill, and competitive achievement. Monte Foreman spent his professional life working with horses-as a cowboy, arena performer, U.S. cavalryman, polo player, competitor, and trainer. Patrick Wyse is a full-time professional riding instructor who trains and films the techniques of more than 600 students each year at Horse Wyse Ranch near Townsend, Montana.
