Parents are pivotal in allowing kids to pursue their sporting aspirations and enjoy all the benefits that youth sports have to offer. Despite being much relied upon and expected to assume a host of different roles at various stages, the sport parent has to date been under-served with resources to help them fulfil these responsibilities. Sports Parenting was written to fill this gap and takes a deep dive to explore how parents can best support young performers, whether they aspire to reach the highest level or simply wish to enjoy the positive social, developmental and life-long health aspects. In an era when youth sports participation has become all the more vital to help kids flourish, parents seeking to provide their child with the best opportunities to enjoy these benefits face an ever-growing array of challenges. Surrounding organised youth sports is a multi-billion dollar industry, requiring the sport parent to be a discerning consumer. Each stage of the journey brings new trials and potential pitfalls that unsuspecting young performers and their parents can easily fall prey to. The book aims to provide readers with the knowledge to discern the best ways to support kids to negotiate the various challenges they face in their youth sports participation. Beyond supporting the aspiring high performer, an over-arching theme is how we can help kids to stay on the path and prevent them falling through the cracks along the way. To that end, we delve into the different facets of talent development to better understand the underlying processes. As well as providing deeper insights into the trials that kids face as the journey unfolds, the reader will come to understand how their role is likely to evolve so that they are equipped to handle the major transitions as they occur. In doing so, the reader will find new common ground and gain a shared understanding that will enable them to work collaboratively with sport coaches and the supporting cast of practitioners, teachers and others. Sports Parenting presents a guide to help parents and young performers navigate the youth sports journey. Informed by the relevant research literature and infused with wisdom gained from two decades overseeing within talent development pathways and working with young athletes on the ground, each section methodically walks the reader through the respective parts of the process and stages on the journey. Each chapter elucidates the key principles that parents can apply in different scenarios and closes with practical tips.

축복이란 누군가 혹은 어떤 상황에 대해 하나님이 가지고 계신 호의와 의도를 선포하는 것이다. 우리가 믿음으로 축복할 때 하나님의 능력이 임하여 사람들이 변하고 상황이 바뀌게 된다. 실제 이 순간의 모습에서 하나님이 기뻐하시는 모습으로 변하게 된다. 모든 크리스찬은 주님의 이름으로 다른 사람들을 축복할 권위와 힘을 가지고 있다. 다른 사람들의 삶과 그 들이 처한 상황을 바꾼다. 축복의 힘은 초자연적이다. 이것은 성령이 주시는 선물이며 성령이 행하시는 일이다. 축복은 기쁨, 평화, 번영과 풍성의 열매를 맺으면서 건강과 성공, 보호를 아울러 제공한다. 이 작은 책에서 당신은, - 축복이 어떻게 일하는지 - 비난하고 저주하는 사람들을 어떻게 축복하는지 - 당신의 배우자와 자녀들, 당신의 가정과 당신 자신을 어떻게 축복하는 지 - 당신의 직장과 땅, 당신이 속한 공동체, 심지어 하나님을 어떻게 축복하는 지 발견하고 실천하게 될 것이다. 당신은 세상을 변화시킬 수 있다.

Killer Queens is a new series of historical fiction books based on true stories. The series explores the world of murder in the gay community, whether the victims or the killers themselves and sometimes both, are homosexual.Book 2 of the series focuses on the serial killer of at least 27 young men and boys in Germany in the post-World War 1 era. At the center of this murder case were Fritz Haarmann and Hans Grans, who were lovers while committing these murders. It wasn't until the skulls and bones started washing ashore from the Leine River in Hanover that Germany realized they had a cold-blooded serial killer in their country.Unlike Leopold and Loeb murder case covered in Book 1, where the dominance shifted from one to the other, Fritz Haarmann was the dominant partner in this case. He carried out each of the murders and dismemberment of the bodies himself, even though he claimed that Grans chose who was to be murdered in court.As you read the exploration of the case in this book, ask yourself, did Haarmann murder each victim to keep his lover Hans Grans to stay with him? Did Grans decide who it was that was to be murdered? The evidence on this case will keep you on the edge of your seat, trying to determine who was really behind these gruesome murders.

As conspiracy theories reach a heady roil in today's globally networked environment, Carl Oglesby's political work offers context and sheds new light upon what may prove to be the mother of all conspiracy theories: "The Secret Ending of World War II," the ramifications of which have echoed throughout modern American history, from the Kennedy assassination to Watergate and potentially through to the bitter partisanship of 2020 America.Combining selections of Oglesby's work on his political awakening, deep state conspiracies of the Kennedy assassination and Watergate, and a previously-unpublished work proposing a shocking secret ending to World War II, Clandestine America invites and motivates readers, scholars and political thinkers to identify a through line-and to question authority, dig deeper, and either refute or validate Oglesby's horrifying findings.

A screenplay that predicts the future. A terrorist cult destined to destroy something they can't remember. A projectionist trying to find her way through a story she's suddenly aware she's living. A loser who always seems to be in the wrong place at the right time. And the disparate particles and people populating a slowly-collapsing, not-so-far-from-now world where movie theaters no longer exist, one percent of the population is dead, and everything we do is surveilled and advertised. This is Sunflower -- the final film by Simeon Wolpe.Readers of Sunflower, Tex Gresham's brilliant new novel, will probably find themselves thinking of Gravity's Rainbow, House of Leaves, and Infinite Jest. But in truth, Sunflower is something else, a beast with its own distinct brand of madness. Bluntly satirical of Trump-era politics, Sunflower takes you on an acid trip disguised as a conspiracy theory, working with equal skill in realist, absurdist, and metafictional modes to make sure you're lost in a funhouse you won't want to leave. In Gresham's fictional universe, the world might end while you're watching a movie about the end of the world, and maybe you wrote the script or maybe your double wrote the script, and even if the theater is filled with people who won't hesitate to blow your brains out if you laugh at all the wrong moments, it won't make any difference, since the book is filled with all the right moments.--Stephen-Paul Martin, author of The Ace of Lightning If a bodybuilder were to astral project herself into both Werner Herzog's cameraman/cinematography and Middlemarch, it would produce a morbidly rakish sunflower of the same heliotropic anti- equivalent as Tex Gresham's Sunflower. And, if an intern were to work in Gresham's library of chapters and deleted scenes, it would confuse The Library of Congress for Netflix.-Vi Khi Nao, author of Fish In Exile and The Vegas Dilemma Tex Gresham has blurred the line between satirical deconstruction of postmodern novels and sentimental love letters to cinema. Simultaneously hilarious and heartbreaking, Sunflower is an intricate mystery that will leave readers seeking to mend their broken relationships and their humanity through a shared fondness for the silver screen. Sunflower is this summer's biggest literary blockbuster hit! You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll dissolve.--Dan Eastman, author of Watertown Sunflower is virtuosic, gargantuan, totally unafraid. Experimental and wild, beautiful and heartbreaking, serious and hilarious--I think Tex is here to stay.--Lindsay Lerman, author of I'm From Nowhere and What Are You If Paul Thomas Anderson wrote a novel based on a film by David Foster Wallace with a screenplay by Thomas Pynchon about dark Hollywood, mind-bending conspiracy, the slapstick horror of America and sheer insanity of existence, these would be some in a long line of flavors the sum total of which might come partway to encapsulating Sunflower. Hilarious, repulsive, enthralling, shocking, breathtaking, masterful-Tex Gresham's magnum opus is a novel you will use all your adjectives attempting to describe; a dense, multi-character tale in which each place and person, every moment and word, are connected through myriad layers across space and time. The effect is staggering. This book will swallow you whole then spit you back out, dazed, bewildered, transformed-hungering for more.--Philip Elliot, author of Nobody Move and Porno Valley I've tried to make Sunflower into a feature--not a Netflix series--and people called me a moron. So the least I can do is say, "Read this book and imagine it as a really good movie that I would make." Because it's so good that I wanted to make it into a movie--not a Netflix series.--Alan Smithee, legendary Hollywood direct
