The very Worst Riding School in the World
Who would be stupid enough to open and run a riding school when they are terrified of horses, can't ride, without insurance or capital, and with not the faintest idea of how to care for horses. Add to that, two of the four horses are not fit for the knacker's yard. Yes, that's exactly what I did - like so many of my adventures I 'fell' into this one as well with hilarious results.
Cycling
The Bike Ride: Diary of an incompetent cyclist
The Bike Ride is a brief humorous account about a three day cycle ride across the south of England which due to negligible planning, an abysmal lack of preparation and poor eyesight was considerably more taxing than it needed to be. With a mistake waiting to be made around every tortuous bend and a near beating on the way, this essay can best be described as the diary of an incompetent cyclist.

Survival Guide: How To Navigate In The Wild Without A Compass
How To Navigate In The Wild Without A Compass
Wilderness survival used to be part of the lifestyle. But though we feel protected inside our contemporary cocoons, getting a grasp on survival skills is still a good 'just in case' set of skills to acquire. Also for the Backpacker, outdoors enthusiasts or sportsman, survival skills are not only in the modern world anymore.
But what're survival skills?
Survival Skills are the tactics and the know-how which may help you to make it through hazardous situations (for example storms or earthquakes), hazardous places (like the desert, the mountains, the jungle and other extreme conditions.
When practicable, try to study the essential survival skills, for example, tactics to avoid getting lost, how to create a housing, the best way to pack a survival equipment, how to make a flame, and how to get access to clear and safe water would be the important skills for every extreme environment - whether winter survival, desert survival, forest, hill or other environment.
If you end up lost or caught in an intense environment so what should you do?
The order of which survival skills to concentrate on first are based on basic human needs and the particular harmful situation you find yourself in. However, creating a protection to protect yourself from your harsh conditions is usually your first and principal task. Regardless of whether you create a slim to pound or perhaps a poncho shelter - making sure you're safely out of the harsh the weather must be your immediate focus. Next is water.
Finding clean drinking water is probably the next most important ingredient in remaining a life threatening situation. Water might be collected in many different ways. However, you find your water although one-way in leave or hot areas, for example, is through condensation traps or solar pictures, it ought to be brought to purify to a rolling boil and ensure it is drinkable via fire. Leading us to another vital survival skill and that is understanding how to create fire.
Fire can be an extremely useful tool for survival. From drying your clothing, purifying water and also helping in the making of instruments and preserving terrifying creatures or pesky insects away, the fireplace is important for both temperature and protection. The flame will certainly make it more comfortable, but housing is important in many situations.
Why an initial aid system?
Since injuries ought to be tended to the moment, they happen to avoid further complications or disease.
Your first aid kit should include bandages, antiseptic and essentially, you know the best ways to deal with heat stroke, snake or toxic insect bites, abrasions, and other injuries and must have obtained a primary aid course. A great first step is getting the US Army Survival information which covers most of the important information you'll need.
Ideal Foods--- low fat, high fiber foods and artificially sweetened beverages.
Products - Drink all you need of coffee, tea, diet sodas or Kool-Aid both unsweetened or sweetened with an artificial sweetener such as Splenda, Special 'N Low, Equivalent, saccharin or a blend.
Travel in Extreme Winter Conditions:
With skis, you can get farther into the backcountry faster than some other means, so winter survival skills are very important for all levels of ski mountaineering.
Useful skills include swimming, finding shelter, making water safe to drink, finding and determining food, managing injuries, and climbing, lighting a flame, and applying makeshift or certain methods.

Survival Guide: 20 Essential Knots You Need To Know
20 Essential Knots Every Survivalist Needs to Know
Understanding how to tie secure troubles can be quite a critical skill in jobs and many interests. For individuals, sailors, climbers and firefighter, success depends on the properly tied knot. They have to be able to release and to link knots quickly and firmly using knot types that resist the pressure of various kinds of pull and effect on the rope or will secure heavy items. Certainly a number are of the main success troubles which might be a great prep for any wilderness experience and that anybody can master.
Knot- I regularly observe folks get uncomfortable and befuddled when it comes to securing a straightforward weight or performing simple but useful jobs, and tying is an important skill for anybody. Listed below are five knots that I believe everyone should know, and if you learn these extremely basic troubles, you'll find a way to manage about 95% of all knot tying needs you'd ever experience.
This is a fun thing to study and master during the idle period spent in a car, enjoying a TV, or waiting for a slow moving horde of zombies to regroup in winter. I'd encourage you to tie months and these at least several hundred times over a span of several days each together. By doing this, it's difficult to forget them.
In this book, some paramount knots are presented in a very lucid manner which can be used as survival hacks.
One of the best methods to endure in the wilderness is to be good with a couple of simple knots. You may have learned them in similar or scouting activities. Since two of the three knots defined here belong to the four essential maritime knots, sailors usually are efficient with them. Something about troubles is the fact that when you do not practice making them, you get rusty. Work with a thin cotton cord for practice. The more heavy string is bulky and does not exhibit the result precisely. While you observe that your knot seems right, you will feel a lot better about most of the practice. Encourage them to train with you, if you have children. Delivering emergency capabilities to your family is one of the best classes you can show.

Eiderdown
Over the centuries eiderdown has been coveted by the Vikings, Russian tsars and medieval tax collectors who accepted it as revenue. The plumage of a fat sea duck, eiderdown - treasured for its extraordinary lightness and insulation - now joins cocaine as an instrument of globalisation and commodity of the super-rich.
In this revelatory essay, Edward Posnett travels to the Westfjords region of Iceland to explore the fragile relationship between Icelanders and the duck. Eiderdown harvesting began with the arrival of Norse settlers in the 9th century, and it is now stuffed into pillows, duvets and clothing which sell for thousands of pounds in Japan, China, Germany and Russia. What might at first appear an idyllic pastime becomes a story of compromise and exploitation. Posnett's finely spun prose and his fascinating encounters open up this seldom seen trade, one which hangs in the balance.

Memory Brain Training - Book 1: Amusement Parks
UPDATED TO WORK ON BLACK AND WHITE DEVICES!! NO QUESTIONS INVOLVING COLOR!
Human brains are flexible and ever growing. Studies show that the more one uses their brain, the stronger that brain gets. Research with nuns finds that nuns who have Alzheimer's do far better than expected because their daily activities keep their brains sharp and engaged. It can come down to the "use it or lose it" maxim - if you want your brain to stay alert, you want to put it through gentle exercises every day.
That's where this Memory Brain Training book comes in.
Within this book you'll find ten images, all on the theme of amusement parks. For each image you will stare at it, focus on it, and memorize as many features of the image as you can. Then, when you turn the page, you'll be asked a series of questions about that image. How many cars were on the roller coaster? What were the colors on the striped tent? Through this process you'll be training your brain to concentrate, focus, and build its recall.
What's great is that the book provides long term training. Come back to it in a week. Do you remember any of the questions? Which ones? Are you able to answer more questions correctly?
The more you train your brain, the better you get at focus, concentration, and memory recall. Take that step every day to improve your life!

How Running Saved My life
Running is my "Religion"
My favorite sport thought was, and it will be until I leave my last breath on this beautiful green, blue ball, running.
I started running because my father told me a story that when he was a student in high school he won a second or a third place in one of the high school races. I describe this incident in my first book Thirsty for Health a lot because it is one of those incidents that when happened did not think of it much, was not something it registered in my head as something important.

The ChessCafe Puzzle Sampler
The ChessCafe Puzzle Books! We are pleased to offer excerpts from three of the most popular chess books available today. They are The ChessCafe Puzzle Books 1 and 2 by German grandmaster Karsten MA 1/4 ller and Book 3, also by MA 1/4 ller, and in cooperation with Dutch international master Merijn van Delft. All three books are available in both traditional, hard copy and electronic editions. The original books are published in figurine algebraic notation, with Informant-style evaluation symbols. For this Puzzle Sampler, we have converted the notation to simple English algebraic and replaced the Informant-style evaluation symbols with text. The ChessCafe Puzzle Book 1 combines clear discussions of tactical themes with over 600 well-chosen positions to test, challenge and teach. Although the classic combinations are not ignored, the great emphasis is on positions from modern tournament practice of the last decade. From CCPB1, four puzzles with different tactical themes (please note that the actual numbering of the puzzles has been changed for this Kindle edition). It is Black to move in Puzzles 1 and 2, White to move and Puzzles 3 and 4. Solutions are immediately after the four puzzles. The ChessCafe Puzzle Book 2 takes on the more difficult and less tangible aspect of positional play. As most chess instructors and players know, it is much more difficult to teach and learn strategic concepts than tactics. The author not only presents puzzles to solve, but also presents examples of different strategic ideas. Here is an excerpt from the section about Outposts. One of the most important skills a chessplayer needs is the ability to defend a position that is under siege. In the third volume in the highly acclaimed, best-selling ChessCafe Puzzle Book series, international grandmaster Karsten MA 1/4 ller, along with international master Merijn van Delft, examines and expounds upon the vital defensive concepts and techniques used to repulse enemy attacks. From CCPB3, three puzzles with different themes (please note that the actual numbering of the puzzles has been changed for this Kindle edition). It is Black to move in all three puzzles. Solutions are immediately after the three puzzles.

Bill Veeck's Crosstown Classic (Chicago Shorts)
Baseball Hall of Famer Bill Veeck (1914-86) was an inspired team builder, a consummate showman, and one of the greatest baseball men ever involved in the game. Bill Veeck's Crosstown Classic, drawn from his uproarious autobiography (cowritten with the talented sportswriter Ed Linn), is an unforgettable trip packed with anecdotes and insight about the history of baseball and tales of players and owners--some of the most entertaining stories in all of sports literature. Veeck's own love for the game began when his father was manager and then President of the Chicago Cubs; upon his father's death in 1930, Veeck was hired as an office boy for eighteen dollars a week. Here, Veeck recollects those halcyon days and how they underscored his development as a wily franchise owner, leading up to quite a rumpus, many years later, during his purchase of the White Sox from the "Battling Comiskeys."

Their Glorious Summer
[Article] The summer of 1981 was indeed a fateful one for several young men who played collegiate summer ball in the Valley Baseball League (VBL) in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. For a trio of players on the New Market Rebels, it was the beginning of a journey that would see them enjoy lengthy major league careers. For three players on the Winchester Royals, Fate had seemingly propped open the door to legitimate dreams of future seasons in the big league sun as well, but 1981 would be the pinnacle of their baseball glory. It was a summer in which the team with Dennis Clow and Steve Peruso and Clay Daniel bested the team with Tom Browning and John Kruk and Dan Pasqua. Clow, Peruso, and Daniel together totaled 11 minor league seasons. Browning, Kruk, and Pasqua each played in the majors for 10 years or more.
Few would have predicted the degree of big league success for the Rebel trio. Browning was almost not allowed to return to the team, Pasqua was briefly dismissed from the team, and John Kruk, well "Johnny" did not fare well when he came up against a broom-stick wielding grandma after he accidentally spit tobacco juice on her carpet.
It was the Winchester Royals, founded by Keith Lupton who would go on to be named the executive of the year three times in three different minor leagues, who were the superior team. Their determination, their ability to stage improbable comebacks, and most of all their talent made the 1981 Winchester Royals one of the great summer league teams ever assembled.
Set as it was against the backdrop of the 1981 major league players' strike, the story of the battle for the President's Cup between the Rebels and the Royals epitomizes that mix of glory and poignancy that produces such passion in those who love the game.
An inspiring and easy read at only 7,000 words.

Give Me The Ball: How To Transform Yourself Into a Big-Game Pitcher
No one dreams of being a middle-reliever, and no one dreams of pitching the fifth inning of a 7-2 game.
Rather, you play baseball to be the guy your team turns to, like a superhero, when the game is on the line.
Give Me The Ball provides a blueprint of how to get there. Pitchers and coaches will learn what it takes to become the Ace of the staff, the guy everyone turns to in a jam.
What you need to realize is this: The mental side of pitching is EVERYTHING.
Whether you throw 62 or 92 miles per hour, your goal on the mound is to maximize what you've got right now.
Give Me The Ball covers the mental aspects of pitching that separate the big-game pitcher who puts his team on his back, from everyone else. It's not enough to throw hard, or have a nasty slider. You need to have pitching savvy, situational knowledge, intense focus, competitiveness and impeccable practice habits to make it to the top.
In this book, you'll learn:
1. How pro pitchers hold runners: prevent cheap runs by keeping runners on first base.
2. How to pitch to the situation: Learn how to get out of jams and hold the lead.
3. How to remain calm under pressure, so you can execute the pitch you need when the game is on the line.
4. How to call a smart game, so you get more outs in fewer pitches.
5. How to practice and build a routine that helps you get more out of your practice and throwing drills.
Everything I'll teach you is simple, but often overlooked even by pro pitchers. To make it from varsity to college baseball, or college baseball to pro ball, you need to prepare and take the mound with a calm, aggressive focus that is backed with knowledge, experience and professionalism.
I was once a walk-on at a small Division-I University, and I was one of the last pitchers on the depth chart. I HATED being one of the guys my coaches and teammates didn't trust.
I worked hard and improved physically and mentally. I ended up not only becoming the #1 pitcher by my Junior year in college, but I also extended my career well beyond college, playing six seasons of professional baseball, earning two All-Star selections before retiring at age 31.
I was once the last guy, and grew up into the #1 guy. I can show you how to do the same.

Great or humble, rich or poor, everyone cherishes their home, and if deprived of it, loses a piece of themselves. I once thought that life could not be so cruel as to take everything I'd known in an instant. Oh how I now understand that life can be capricious indeed. This is the story of how I came to the surface of Drathari and unwillingly traded a life for a life.

Que demander de plus pour un cycliste?
Lorsqu'ils considerent deverrouiller leur veritable potentiel, la plupart des athletes se concentrent sur des objectifs physiques et nutritionnels mais negligent souvent le developpement de leur potentiel interieur grace a des pratiques comme la meditation et la visualisation. Il est commun de vouloir observer les resultats des exercices physiques, mais ce que de nombreux athletes ne savent pas, c'est qu'il a ete prouve que la meditation ameliore aussi la sante physique et la performance.
Atteindre votre performance de pointe exige que vous vous entrainiez et stimuliez le corps et l'esprit.

Dans la meditation, les resultats ne sont pas quelque chose que vous verrez physiquement, mais plutot dans la facon dont vous vous sentez et dans votre nouvelle capacite de controler vos pensees et emotions. En commencant vos seances de meditation et en etant discipline et coherent, vous remarquerez des ameliorations significatives dans la facon dont vous repondez a l'anxiete, la pression et le stress qui sont trois des principaux problemes la plupart des athletes ont du mal a surmonter dans la vie, et en essayant d'atteindre votre veritable potentiel.

La Frontiere Finale De L'entrainement a la Resistance pour le Tennis va considerablement changer la facon dont vous pourrez vous investir mentalement et emotionnellement par des techniques de visualisation que vous allez acquerir.
Voulez-vous etre le meilleur? Pour etre le meilleur, vous devez vous entrainer physiquement et mentalement a votre capacite maximale.
La Visualisation est souvent consideree comme une activite qui ne peut etre quantifiee, ce qui rend plus difficile de voir s'il y a de l'amelioration ou si cela fait une difference, mais en realite la visualisation augmentera vos chances de succes beaucoup plus que toute autre activite.
Vous apprendrez trois techniques de visualisation qui sont eprouvees pour ameliorer vos performances dans toutes les situations. Celles-ci sont:
1. Les Techniques de Visualisation Motivationnelle.
2. Techniques de Visualisation pour la Resolution de Problemes
3. Techniques de Visualisation Orientee Vers un But.
Ces techniques de visualisation du Tennis vous aideront a:
- Gagner plus souvent.
- Devenir mentalement plus solide
- Depasser la competition.
- Arriver au niveau suivant.
- Recuperer plus rapidement et s'entrainer plus longtemps.
Comment est-ce possible? La visualisation vous aidera a mieux controler vos emotions, le stress, l'anxiete et la performance dans des situations de pression qui sont souvent la difference entre le succes et l'echec.
Faire ressortir le meilleur en vous-meme dans un sport et atteindre votre veritable potentiel ne peut se faire qu'a travers un regime d'entrainement equilibre qui devrait inclure: l'entrainement mental, l'entrainement physique, et une bonne nutrition.
Pourquoi n'y-a-t-il pas plus de gens qui utilisent des visualisations pour ameliorer leurs performances au Tennis ? Il y a un certain nombre de raisons, mais la verite est que la plupart des gens ne l'ont jamais essaye avant et ont peur d'essayer quelque chose de nouveau. D'autres ne pensent pas que l'amelioration de leur capacite mentale fera une difference, mais ils ont tort.
Pratiquer des techniques de visualisation au Tennis sur une base reguliere vous permettra de:
- Augmenter votre capacite pulmonaire en vous aidant a detendre la tension musculaire et diminuer la charge de travail.
- Recuperer plus rapidement apres l'entrainement ou en competition grace a des techniques de respiration qui permettront de reduire le stress musculaire.
- Surmonter les situations de pression.

- Ameliorer le controle de vos emotions dans des conditions stressantes.
- Voir des resultats que vous n'auriez jamais crus possibles.
La visualisation est un travail difficile et necessite une pratique constante, et c'est la raison pour laquelle seulement les meilleurs le font et s'attribuent toute la gloire. Faites tout votre possible pour arriver au bout de vos limites mentales en utilisant des visualisations.
