  • The AGA Song Book up to Date
    3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago.

  • ENDER's GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third
    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • Mental Education Program Toward Success
    Indian Journal of Fundamental and Applied Life Sciences ISSN: 2231– 6345 (Online) An Open Access, Online International Journal Available at www.cibtech.org/sp.ed/jls/2015/01/jls.htm 2015 Vol.5 (S1), pp. 4240-4246/Rasti et al. Research Article MENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAM TOWARD SUCCESS: THE CASE FOR STUDENT ATHLETES AND OTHER ADOLESCENTS Mohammad Ali Rasti1, *Zainudin Bin Abu Bakar2 and Zainal Abidin2 1University Technology, Malaysia 2Department of Psychology Education, University Technology, Malaysia *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT This study aimed at depicting the important picture of mental education among student athletes in their physical education courses in schools. Moreover, we proposed a mental education program for student athletes and other adolescents in order to enhance their psychological and educational skills. This program, based on the author's experiences in Iran as to a mental education program, should have these features. In fact, this program is extensible to other context such as Malaysia, one in which this study conducted. Keywords: Mental Education, Student Athlete, Adolescent INTRODUCTION Adolescence is an important stage in any individual's life. It is described as the period in which several coping skills and capabilities are acquired (Jones and Lavallee, 2009). Sports boost the life skills of adolescences and reduce fear of failure in young athletes. It can also facilitate positive growth in adolescents (Dowrkin and Larson, 2003). Additionally, due to the structured nature of sports, which require voluntary effort and interpersonal relationships with adults and peers, it provides them with performance and social development (Saferstein, 2006; Gould and Carson, 2008). In sports, adolescents are equipped with opportunities to develop essential behavioral and mental skills such as the ability to tolerate failure, stress management, risk taking, and perseverance (Holt et al., 2012).

  • The Bombay Parsi Cafe
    DINE IN- DELIVERY- TAKE AWAY The Bombay Parsi Cafe BAWA CERTIFIED GOOD FOOD - GOOD INGREDIENTS NO FOOD COLOR - NO PALM OIL - NO ARTIFICIAL THICKENERS The quintessential café culture was pioneered in the 60’s by the Irani cafés in Bombay, passionately run by Parsis. They mushroomed all over the place by the hundreds, however, sadly you would find only a handful of them around today, endangered in existence, just like us Parsis. The bent wood chairs, marble tables, walls clad with vintage Parsi frames and the very strict and bizarre café rules to follow. They made hordes of fans, from the rich and famous, the filmy glamour to the common Bombay man. The simplicity of a morning chai with bun maska to their eclectic gourmet fare appealed to every Bombaiya’s palate. Cafe Funkie Town is an ode, a tribute to the cafés of that old Bombay era. Once upon a time the talk of the town, and today a fading memory for most of us. I invite you to join me on a delectable gourmet experience, reliving the good old days and seeing Bombay cuisine with me, just my way. Come, let’s celebrate the Bombay I knew, again. Cheers, Firoz Burjor Mithaiwala Recipes perfected since 1930 by Perin and Shirin Mithaiwalla. ALL DAY BREAKFAST Ain't no party like a breakfast party !!!
