Описание: Adapted from "La Main Passe!", this play is set in turn-of-the-century Paris where Madame Chanal is having an affiar with Masenay, who is also married. In true Feydeau style there is a frenzied domino effect of mistaken identities, lots of door banging, and drop-your-trousers scenes.
We all want to be heard; to be ignored is very painful. This is especially true in our relationship to God. Knowing that he loves us makes unanswered prayer all the more paradoxical. But everyone, even Jesus, has experienced unanswered prayer. This book is intended to fill the silence with wonderful assurances from God's Word. In it, you may very well find the answer to your unanswered prayers.

Описание:
Frederick II was a child of privilege. Born into two royal families, he is in line to inherit the thrones of Italy, Sicily, Germany and the Holy Roman Empire until tragedy strikes, his birthright is lost, and his world is shattered.
Frederick is taken to the Vatican to live with Pope Innocent III. As his guardian, Frederick learns about the politics and power of the medieval church and how his family name has turned him into a target of the pope. He is treated like a prisoner of The Church and nearly disavows his religion until a friendship with Francis of Assisi shows him another side of Christianity.
After being sent to live with foster parents, Frederick escapes to the docks of Sicily... a melting pot of medieval culture. Here he gains valuable life lessons not taught by royal tutors. This unique mix of education and real world understanding is what shapes Frederick throughout his life. His final tutor is a former crusader named Hector MacBrae who takes Frederick under his wing and prepares him for his future as a leader. A leader who would change the world
In chronicling Frederick's journey from eager young student and prot g , to adept negotiator and warrior king, and finally to mighty Holy Roman emperor, Falconland tells the compelling story of a privileged child who loses everything, but overcomes the tragedy and abuse of his childhood to establish himself as one of the most powerful and enlightened leaders of the Middle Ages.
This is the first of two historical novels about Frederick II. It takes you inside the intriguing world of medieval Europe, with its fierce rivalries among royal kingdoms, high born families and a rising and dark power within the church. You will never view the middle ages the same after reading Falconland.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
Reggie Marra's third volume of poetry, And Now, Still, in its depiction of family, loss, grief and resilience, carries forward the precise, direct and unflinching style that informed his poems on the consequences of war in This Open Eye (2006). This new volume juxtaposes humor, gentleness and a sense of redemption with the poet's eye for graphic beauty. Marra's poems and occasional journal entries invite us to share an intimate, ongoing healing narrative that is at once his, and at a deeper level, a story that belongs to all of us.
REVIEWS
"Openhearted, rich in detail, and wildly irreverent, Reggie Marra's And Now, Still celebrates the sacred everyday connections among the living, the dying, and the dead. This intimate moment, son holding father - 'I learn how heavy/ your living dead weight can be/ face to face, chest to chest' - is one example of the brave, unflinching nature of Marra's work.
"And from the title poem these lines - 'I feel etched stone's/ temporary permanence, / time, laughter, conversation, / ...first and final truth/ lost shinanklefoot, / ...two key turns, a silent sister' - reminding us that all emerges from and gives way to silence, the mysterious center point, this moment. And so the poet mourns and sings. Lyric to narrative, journal entry to rant, his layered language, its poetic intelligence, invites deeper presence. A generous collection that defies being boxed, this book is a healing journey offered by a kind, resilient, skillful and eloquent guide." - Janet E. Aalfs, author of Bird of a Thousand Eyes, founder & director of Lotus Peace Arts, http: //www.vwma.org/
"When the soul needs to be fed or held, only music and poetry are capable. I have no idea if Reggie Marra sings or plays anything - but oh, the poetry." - Ian Percy, author, Going Deep: Exploring Spirituality in Life and Leadership
"Reggie Marra's poetry speaks to me deeply of hope and joy, beautifully woven into the context of grief and loss. As a holistic nurse, reading Reggie's poetry reminds me of the humanity in every person. Through his life I see my life and the lives of the many patients I have touched. Reggie has the ability to gather precious moments and offer them as a gift to the reader. I recommend slowly sipping and savoring each word that it may touch and magnify your life." - Joanna Burgess-Stocks, BSN, RN, CWOCN, Patient Advocate
Описание: How the 1970s' Oakland A's-a revolutionary band of brawling winners led by Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, Vida Blue, Sal Bando, and Rollie Fingers--won three straight championships and knocked baseball into the modern age
The Oakland A's of the early '70s were the most transformative team in baseball history. Never before had an entire organization so collectively traumatized baseball's establishment with its outlandish behavior and business decisions. Or with its indisputable winning record: five straight division titles and three straight championships. The high drama that played out on the field was exceeded only by the drama in the clubhouse and front office. But those A's, with their garish uniforms and outlandish facial hair, redefined virtually every aspect of the game for coming generations.
Under the visionary leadership of owner Charles O. Finley, the team assembled such luminary figures as Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, Rollie Fingers, and Vida Blue. Finley acted as his own general manager and-with an insatiable need for control-dictated everything from the playlist of the ballpark organist to the menu for the media lounge. So pervasive was his meddling that one of his managers, Dick Williams, quit in the middle of the championship celebration following Oakland's Game 7 victory over the Mets in the 1973 World Series. The advent of free agency spelled the end of Finley's reign; within two years, his dynasty was lost.
A sprawling, brawling history of one of the game's most unforgettable teams, Dynastic, Bombastic, Fantastic is a paean to a turbulent yet magical time.

Описание:
If you've been waiting for a book on youth, interscholastic and intercollegiate sport that honors and addresses the need for cooperation among student-athletes, parents and coaches, and that embraces physiology, philosophy, and ongoing development-with a focus on what's best for the student-athlete, welcome home.
The 2013 editions of The Quality of Effort and The Quality of Effort Workbook invite student-athletes, parents and coaches to observe and explore their unique and necessary roles in bringing about a healthy athletic experience. Reggie Marra writes through the soul of a poet-athlete-teacher-caregiver, and kid who got cut from the team he later went on to coach.
He takes us by the hand and challenges us to inquire into our own values, behaviors, and relationships. If we're willing to take up the challenge, this inquiry helps us see ourselves and all those heroes and villains out there from increasingly comprehensive and balanced perspectives.
"Preaching" only what he practices, in The Quality of Effort, Reggie Marra authentically engages each of us to become increasingly more aware of our stories-the interpretations we choose, and how they affect, and even effect, what we do next as parents, coaches, student-athletes and human beings.
Early Praise
"As a former college athlete and longtime leader of high-performance military units, I recommend Reggie Marra's work with unbridled enthusiasm.... Following this comprehensive approach to training will not only produce better athletes, but also happier and healthier citizens as our youth grow and take their place in the world." -Fred Krawchuk, Retired U.S. Special Forces Colonel and RAND Consultant
.."..Reggie Marra offers a blueprint that encourages our children to become not only better athletes but better people. He delivers a powerful message filled with humanity and honest answers to questions that we sometimes think but may not want to ask." - Anthony Perrone, VP, Challenger Division, Cortland American Little League
"The Quality of Effort has helped me reinterpret my career as a professional athlete-providing both relief and direction....Reggie Marra offers a map to tomorrow's competitive edge, a map that requires effort-not necessarily in doing more drills or pushups, but in taking responsibility for all aspects of your approach to life." - Ryan Leech, Professional Mountain Biker (Retired) and Professional Integral Coach(TM) http: //ryanleech.com
.."..Sports can and does play an instrumental role in the healthy unfolding of a human life. If we take advantage of Reggie's frame of understanding-highlighting the role of effort, in relationship to talent and results, as an equally important consideration in our definition of success-we have a grand opportunity from which we can chart a significantly improved learning and developmental pathway for generations of student-athletes to come." - Cherie Beck, Cultural Technologist http: //about.me/CherlynnGrace

"The Quality of Effort is an incredibly insightful guide for how to bring integrity and passion into sport as well as into life. Mr. Marra takes a truly integrated approach to the role of sport in life and along the way lays out what is necessary to get the most out of being an athlete-at any level. An added bonus here is that he is a brilliant and witty storyteller who clearly speaks from the heart." - Michael Sallustio, Parent, Nutritional Consultant and Personal Trainer http: //annapolis-nutrition-fitness.com/

Описание: A Washington Post bestseller, Power Forward is a compelling professional coming-of-age story from Reggie Love, the man who spent more time with Barack Obama during his historic first campaign and term than anyone else. Reggie Love is a unique witness to history, whose introduction to Washington was working in Junior Senator Barack Obama's mailroom. As "body man" to Obama during his first presidential campaign, Love's job was to stay one step behind the candidate, but think and act three steps ahead during a typical eighteen-hour workday. As President Obama's personal aide during that momentous first term, Love sat yards from the Oval Office and often spent more time with the President than anyone else. While his experiences were unique, the lessons he learned during his tenure with the President are universal. Persistence. Responsibility. Passion for a cause greater than yourself. In short, maturity. Love has been singularly lucky in his mentors. At Duke University, where he was a walk-on and a captain of its fabled basketball team, Love learned from Coach Krzyzewski that sports builds character--from President Obama, Love learned that how you conduct your life defines your character. Accountability and serving with honor were learned during unsought moments: co-coaching with Malia Obama's and Sasha Obama's basketball team with the President; lending Obama his tie ahead of a presidential debate; managing a personal life when no hour is truly your own. From his first interview with Senator Obama, to his near-decision not to follow the President-elect to the White House, Love drew on Coach K's teachings as he learned to navigate Washington. But it was while owning up to (temporarily) losing the President's briefcase, playing pick-up games in New Hampshire to secure votes, babysitting the children of visiting heads of state, and keeping the President company at every major turning point of his historic first campaign and administration, that Love learned how persistence and passion can lead not only to success, but to a broader concept of adulthood. Power Foward is a professional coming-of-age story like no other.
