Book Description
FIVE MONTHS A SPARTAN is an inspirational story of how my son's new interest of obstacle course racing became a five month whirlwind obsession. No one does thirteen obstacle course events and numerous volunteer and promotional events in their first five months of competing. He tested himself with physical challenges that he never imagined. His mental toughness was challenged with each course. Then imagine the elements of extreme heat, snow, or lightning. The five month tour had long driving trips to Alberta, British Columbia, Idaho, Utah, Lake Tahoe, Montana and others. One never knows what they are truly made of until they are tested beyond their limits. Participating in Spartan Races, Spartan Hurricane Heat, Rugged Maniac, Tough Mudder and Warrior Dash, were indeed great tests of endurance, strength, speed and tenacity.

But, to be effective in practice, sooner or later you will have to find the "pictorial" trigger cues which jumpstart your skills. This is a must read book-it worth more than ten private lessons.

medi@sia

Author: T.J.M. Holden
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134195540
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 296

Book Description
This new inter-disciplinary book is the first comparative, case-based analysis of media panoply in (and out of) Asia today. Examining what the authors call the "media/tion equation", the contributors demonstrate the multiple links between media, society and culture, and advance the claim that media is the key means through which Asians experience, understand, effect and are affected by the worlds containing them. Exploring a relatively neglected principle in cultural studies - that context counts - medi@sia highlights how the experiences of those encountering media messages differ depending on social, economic, politial and ideational conditions. Balancing social, cultural and media theory with empirical research, the essays in this collection provide a better understanding of the complex relationship between media and people’s practices, values and behaviour in contemporary Asia.
