The Empty Room by DeVita-Raeburn, Elizabeth Edition , 0


The Empty Room by DeVita-Raeburn, Elizabeth Edition , 0


$16.99


Ted is Elizabeth DeVita-Raeburn’s older brother, best friend, and the ringmaster of her days. On a September morning when she is six, she wakes up and Ted is gone. Her parents explain that he went to the hospital for a while. A while turns out to be eight years in a plastic bubble, where he dies of a rare autoimmune disease at age seventeen. The Empty Room is DeVita-Raeburn’s unflinching, often haunting recollection of life with Ted, woven into a larger exploration of the enormous — and often unacknowledged — impact of a sister’s or brother’s death on remaining siblings. With an inspired blend of life experience, journalistic acumen, and research training, DeVita-Raeburn draws on interviews of more than two hundred survivors to render a powerful portrait of the range of conditions and emotions, from withdrawal to guilt to rage, that attend such loss. Finding little in professional literature, she realizes that those who suffer are the experts. And in the end, it is DeVita-Raeburn and her experts who present a larger, more complex understanding of the sibling bond, the lifelong impact of the severing of that bond, and the tools needed to heal and move forward. The Empty Room is a fascinating literary hybrid in which Elizabeth DeVita-Raeburn seamlessly fuses deeply affecting remembrance with a pragmatic, lucidly written exploration of the healing journey.

Iron Ball, Wooden Staff, Empty Hands by Adkins, Caylor Edition , 0


$22.49


Caylor Adkins has over 50 years of rigorous training with a bias for studying realistic combat. He has always sought broadly based sources of martial arts understanding for himself and his students beyond his original training in Shotokan Karate. His criterion is that the ideas really work. Some of the sources in the book include: * Ball and staff forms from Chinese masters * Western boxing * Russian Systema empty arm techniques * Experts in body structure and connection: medical physiologists, external martial arts styles, Ida Rolf structural integration, and Lu Wen Wei’s four-center (tantien) model * Chi flow models from internal martial arts styles The goal of the book is to transmit Adkins’ martial arts understanding to improve the technique and combat ability of his readers. He uses basic techniques, forms, and combat drills in three complementary modalities (iron ball, wooden staff, and empty hands) to explain: * Structure: integrating the whole body and spirit to hit harder with less wasted power * Flow: using breathing, chi, and movement initiators to move quickly and efficiently * Maneuver: defeating a dangerous opponent by understanding focus, critical edge, disruptive techniques, and centering

 50 Ways to Leave Your Lectern


50 Ways to Leave Your Lectern


$94.95


Today’s college teacher is caught between paradigms: to lecture or not to lecture. Lecturing is now described as ineffective and passi in today’s world of higher education. In practice, however, most professors still lecture because they were taught by the lecture method; they were conditioned to become auditory learners, and they have had no formal training in alternative teaching methods. Faculty are biologists, art historians, or mathematicians, and they think of teaching in terms of quantifiable content. But if lecturing is out, what is in ? How does one move from empty vessel to active learning? How can we truly engage today’s student? Trends in higher education have begun to shift the teacher’s role from soloist or center-stage performer to conductor, orchestrating and synthesizing a dynamic, multifaceted learning experience. Yet the question lingers: How do we leave our lecterns? How can teachers engage students? Staley’s book offers you a proven way to stimulate thinking, discussion, and group interaction. Each exercise in 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LECTERN will ask you to identify your ABC Goals for the activity at the outset based on Bloom’s Affective, Behavioral, and Cognitive goals. Professors may be accustomed to concentrating primarily on cognitive goals; however, all three types of goals are important. Unlike upper division courses with more specialized knowledge; affective, behavioral, and cognitive goals should be more equally balanced in first-year courses.

 Awakening to Zen: The Teachings of Roshi Philip Kapleau By Roshi Philip Kapleau


Awakening to Zen: The Teachings of Roshi Philip Kapleau By Roshi Philip Kapleau


$17.95


<P>When Roshi Philip Kapleau returned to the United States in 1966, after thirteen years of training in Japan with two of the country’s greatest masters of Zen, he “did not come home empty-handed — he brought us a living word of Zen,” Kenneth Kraft has said. The first Westerner fully and naturally at home with Zen, Roshi Kapleau has made it his life’s work to translate Zen Buddhism into an American idiom, to take Zen’s essence and plant it in American soil. Four decades later, the seeds of Zen that Roshi Kapleau planted have blossomed. Zen flourishes and Roshi Kapleau continues to help people find enlightenment and fulfillment <I>within,</I> not outside, their daily lives. “True awakening,” Roshi Kapleau has said, “is not a ‘high’ that keeps one in the clouds of an abstract oneness, but a realization that brings one solidly down to earth into the world of toil and struggle.”<P>Kapleau has written a number of books in his lifetime, <I>The Three Pillars of Zen</I> the most well known among them, but the heart of his work, his teachings to his students, has never before been made available. <I>Awakening to Zen</I> extracts the vital threads of Roshi Kapleau’s teachings and braids them into a strong yet supple cord that readers may follow toward a deeper understanding of the enlightened life. Roshi Kapleau’s warm, sometimes humorous but always grounded lessons touch on every aspect of daily reality; they capture his power, too, to transform the lives of not just practicing Buddhists, but all people who seek to experience in a more authentic way the bond they share with the world around them. One way or another, Roshi Kapleau has spent the past forty-three years of his life helping make Zen practice and its fruits accessible to anyone of sincere intent. <I>Awakening to Zen</I> offers a crucial and never-before-published aspect of his life’s work.

 Dancing At Armageddon


Dancing At Armageddon


$25.88


Winner of the Charles H. Cooley Award from the Society for the Study of Symbolic Interaction. Richard G. Mitchell Jr. spent more than a dozen years among survivalists at public conferences, private meetings, and clandestine training camps across America. He takes us inside a compelling, hidden world more connected to the chaos of modern life many of us experience than the label separatist suggests. In survivalism Mitchell found a profound and meaningful critique of contemporary industrial society, a subculture in which the real evil is not repressive government but the far more insidious influence of a Planet Microsoft mentality with its abundance of empty choices. Survivalists, Mitchell shows us, are seeking resistance, not struggling against it; they are looking for ways to define themselves and test their talents in a society that is becoming devitalized and formless.

In her first full-length collection, Empty Room with Light, Ann Hostetler draws on her training as a visual artist as she seeks to articulate moments of illumination in everyday life. The collection is structured by a series of frames playfully named after different forms of visual display, such as Family Album, Exhibitions, and En Plein Air. A rich and varied palette of images-from the severe beauty of her Amish Aunt’s flower garden to the psychedelic swirls on her own painted toes-both lends Hostetler’s work a distinctive voice and offers readers many points of connection. Each section of the book illuminates a different facet of the poet’s journey through life.

A customized conditioning program for dropping strokes and losing pounds—from one of the most successful personal trainers on the PGA TourUntil very recently, golfers rarely hit the gym. The workout facilities along the PGA Tour were empty because many golfers didn’t consider themselves real athletes. Today it’s a whole new ballgame—and golf-fitness guru Boris Kuzmic is heading up the revolution. The much sought-after personal trainer for several world-class PGA Tour professionals—including David Duval, Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, and Robert Allenby—Kuzmic has used his own proven approach to help his clients lower their scores, raise their rankings, and tighten their belts, demonstrating that time spent in the gym definitely improves your scorecard. And while working out is great for the pros, Kuzmic believes it can do even more for the amateur. In Fit for Golf Kuzmic brings his expertise to you in a streamlined format, outlining a simple fitness regimen that—if followed faithfully—will have you dropping strokes and pounds in no time by using the very same techniques he used while training those top PGA players. He begins with his basic philosophy of working out—namely, that every muscle is a “golf muscle” and only the steady development of all of them will help make you a better player. One of the things that makes the sport so difficult is that it requires you to use your entire body to perform a very precise task. From quadriceps to deltoids, and from heart to head, Kuzmic will take you through the basics of building a better golf body. He’ll show you how to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses and, with that knowledge, how to customize your own personal workout. Accompanied by detailed instructions and helpful photographs, sample workout programs designed to fit different needs, abilities, and schedules are provided. From stretching and strength training to cardio and good

A note from his missing brother Will stating Follow Me starts him on a dangerous journey in his brother’s footsteps to Big Bay, Michigan, to bring justice to a man named Charles Slocum who had murdered their grandfather. Slocum is dead, but his son Bret, suspected of drug running, blocks his path and his repeated attempts to kill Ogden test every skill from Ogden’s Marine training. In a twist of fate, Ogden has a relationship with Faye Slocum, Charles Slocum’s daughter. His search for his brother finally takes him to Sault Ste. Marie, where Slocum is believed to be bringing in his drug shipments. The last desperate encounter with Bret Slocum takes place in the Lumberjack Tavern in Big Bay, made famous by a long-ago shooting related in the book Anatomy of a Murder.

 Hooked!: Buddhist Writings on Greed, Desire, and the Urge to Consume


Hooked!: Buddhist Writings on Greed, Desire, and the Urge to Consume


$18.95


At one time or another, most of us have experienced an all-consuming desire for a material object, a desire so strong that it seems like we couldn’t possibly be happy without buying this thing. Yet, when we give in to this impulse, we often find ourselves feeling frustrated and empty. Advertisers, of course, aim to hook us in this way, and, from a global perspective, our tendency to get hooked fuels the rampant over-consumption that is having a devastating impact on the world’s stability and on the environment. According to the contributors to this unique anthology, Buddhism can shed valuable light on our compulsions to consume. Craving and attachment—how they arise and how to free ourselves of them—are central themes of Buddhist thought. The writings in this volume, most of which have never been previously published, offer fresh perspectives and much-needed correctives to our society’s tendency to believe that having more will make us happier. Hooked! includes a range of writings on how to apply Buddhist thought and ethics to understand and combat the problem of over-consumption as individuals and collectively. Contributors include popular Western teachers, Asian masters, scholars, and practitioners such as:    •  Pema Chödrön—on what is actually happening at the moment we’re "hooked," and how to get beyond that.    •  Joseph Goldstein—on how mindfulness training can help us stop "wanting to want."    •  Bhikshuni Thubten Chödrön—on how consumer mentality influences spiritual practice.    •  Judith Simmer-Brown—on how cultivating spiritually based activism and compassionate action can help us address the negative effects of consumerism.    •  Rita Gross—on how understanding moderation can curb overconsumption.
