Loving The Game When The Game Doesn't Love You Back
Each year, thousands of athletes work hard to excel at their sport, while sacrificing their time in hopes of one day playing professionally. Some make it but many do not. Most often we hear the stories of athletes that have succeeded. However there are many more untold stories of great athletes who did not. Brandon Sweeney shares his story of the setbacks he had to overcome when his dream of going to the NFL was shattered by a career ending injury.

Midnight in Chattanooga
During a five-year stretch in the middle of the decade, the James Madison Dukes emerged as one of the elite programs in FCS football. Behind a confident coach and an established recruiting pipeline, the Dukes steamrolled their way to four playoff appearances, one national championship and a 49-15 record from 2004-2008. The origins of this run, however, began much earlier — in critical moments and decisions made during a long rebuilding effort. Madison football had most recently been marked by poor attendance, young players, mediocrity and tragedy when the 2004 season opened. And yet there also existed a foundation of camaraderie, purpose and talent — the building blocks of a successful p...
Summary of Charles Bosworth & Joel Schwartz's Bone Deep
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On December 27, 2011, Russ Faria went to game night at Mike Corbin’s house with his friends. He was going to pick up his wife, Betsy, who was getting a ride home from Pam Hupp. She had some news to share with him at home. #2 Russ’s red 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser hadn’t been running well, so he left it in the garage and took the blue 1999 Ford Explorer. He drove east out of the small Waterbrooke Estates Subdivision and onto rural Highway H. He made a quick turn south onto Missouri Highway 61. #3 As he ran to his wife, Russ screamed, Betsy! Betsy! She was lying on her right side, with the front of her body twisted downward until her left shoulder almost touched the floor. She was covered in blood. He knew that she had threatened to kill herself before. He thought she must have finally done it. #4 On the night of the murder, Russ was on the phone with the dispatcher when a deputy arrived at his house and took him to the patrol car. He was sobbing and couldn’t believe what he had seen. He told the deputy about Betsy’s cancer, her bouts of depression, and their activities that day.
Asian Capitalism and the Regulation of Competition
Asian Capitalism and the Regulation of Competition explores the implications of Asian forms of capitalism and their regulation of competition for the emerging global competition law regime. Expert contributors from a variety of backgrounds explore the topic through the lenses of formal law, soft law and transnational regulation, and make extensive comparisons with Euro-American and global models. Case studies include Japan, China and Vietnam, and thematic studies include examinations of competition law's relationship with other regulatory terrains such as public law, market culture, regulatory geography and transnational production networks.
NCA&T vs. NCCU

It is the story of HBCUs at their best and documents their contributions to the state of North Carolina and the nation. It is a story of perseverance, accomplishment, and pride.
Oral Traditions and the Verbal Arts
The study of oral traditions and verbal arts leads into an area of human culture to which anthropologists are increasingly turning their attention. Oral Traditions and the Verbal Arts provides up-to-date guidance on how to approach the study of oral form and their performances, treating both the practicalities of fieldwork and the methods by which oral texts and performances can be observed, collected or analysed. It also relates to those current controversies about the nature of performance and of 'text'. Designed as a practical and systematic introduction to the processes and problems of researching in this area, this is an invaluable guide for students, and lecturers of anthropology and cultural studies and also for general readers who are interested in enjoying oral literature for its own sake.
