These are just poems I wrote about my time in the navy and about other things in life.
Poetry. SPREZZATURA is a collection of poems about love and fear and money, about your own devices and stupid contemporary immune systems, about how we know what we know in a confusing era of fleeting information. SPREZZATURA is about how we know our feelings, and how we feel our knowledge.
'Ally Slopers Cavalry' may well have been a music hall joke in Victorian times, but the re-organised Army Service Corps (ASC) came into its own in the First World War, providing essential support to the British Army in every theatre of war. With so little published material available, even our leading historians have only the sketchiest idea of the logistic network behind the front line and the activities of the men and women involved. This freshly researched book by the last curator of the RASC & RCT Museum provides a wealth of new and fascinating information on what became eventually a 326,000- strongcorps, along with 120 photographs and 21 annexes of archive material. The ASC's contribution to the 1914-1918 war has been ignored for too long - until now.
In the summer of 2008, Mike Young found himself jobless and completely broke; just twelve months earlier he was a millionaire. The struggle was real. But so was the commitment to create an ideal lifestyle and never go back to a traditional 9-to-5 job. He wanted a life of entrepreneurial freedom; the ability to work when, where, and with whom he wanted. Little did he know that it would take almost a decade and over $200,000 invested in self-education, business, marketing, and branding programs before he'd successfully build the business and life of his dreams. Mike's Makeover MethodTM streamlines the unnecessarily complex task of building a recognizable, successful, sustainable brand and reve...
In Martial Arts Home Training: The Complete Guide to the Construction and Use of Home Training Equipment, police and SWAT trainer Mike Young shows you how to make and use ingenious home training aids-from such inexpensive, easily obtainable resources as a grocery bag, an old towel, a worn-out tire, or various construction-site scraps-to enhance your martial arts practice. Included in this martial arts book are simple instructions for a wide array of equipment for the home martial arts studio, including the shadowboxing towel; footwork, balance, and leg developer; multipurpose tire; precision blocking stick; heavy-duty striking post; grocery bag; small hanging bag; and choking dummy. Martial Arts Home Training sets out Mike Young's patented "rock & roll" methods for getting the most out of your training equipment and your training time. With the twin maxims "correct practice makes perfect" and "KISS" (keep it simple, stupid) always in mind, Young provides a thorough grounding in the essentials of developing home training equipment and the fundamentals of maintaining the diligent yet playful attitude necessary to get the most from it.
Thoughtful yet spontaneous, self-aggrandizing and hopelessly philosophical, Mike would like to find out if the earth really is round. During his four-month voyage around the planet, Mike's past loves, current romances and vision of himself are on a collision course. His mind becomes increasingly abstract as he navigates the continents and struggles with morality in a dream world of his own making, a universe where spring break happens weekly at a dart's throw on a world map. Mike's story is told through his journal which is interlaced with various documents - essays, instant message conversations and an email. These documents tell a story that parodies Goethe, in both his behavior as a writer and his apparent views on love, nature and the world. These views were described in Goethe's seventeenth-century novel, The Sorrows of Young Werther.
