Weeks Bob: Curling For Dummies

Curling For Dummies

Ein Fall für Gamache

Wenn es einen Ort gibt, an dem es an Weihnachtsbäumen nicht mangelt, dann ist es das idyllische Three Pines. An den Feiertagen ist es in dem tief eingeschneiten Dorf inmitten der kanadischen Wälder noch ruhiger als sonst. Friedlich ist es auch in den Büros der Sûreté von Montréal. Inspector Armand Gamache, Chef der Mordkommission, nutzt die besinnliche Zeit für einen ganz speziellen Brauch: Den zweiten Weihnachtstag verbringt er wie jedes Jahr mit seiner Frau Reine-Marie in seinem Büro, um bei Truthahn- Sandwiches die Akten ungelöster Fälle durchzugehen - in der Hoffnung, doch noch etwas zu entdecken. Doch diesmal wird die Weihnachtstradition gestört, ein neuer Fall fordert Gamaches ganze Aufmerksamkeit. In Three Pines ist ein Mord passiert, mitten auf dem zugefrorenen See während des jährlichen Curling-Wettbewerbs. Und obwohl alle Dorfbewohner anwesend waren, will niemand etwas gesehen haben ...

The Sports Book

Alpine skiing or downhill skiing is defined by six disciplines: Downhill, Super G, Giant Slalom, Slalom, Parallel, and Combined that test the athletes' technical abilities and speed. It has long been a popular sport with many national and international championships and is a mainstay of the Winter Olympic Games. 



The Science of Alpine Ski Racing is the first book to discuss the science, coaching, research, and training of elite to recreational alpine ski racers for optimal performance. This book brings together the complex physiological, biomechanical, and technical components of the sport in a practical manner with which coaches and researchers alike can adopt to elicit better performance outcomes for athletes. Literature of this kind has never been formally researched and published specifically for the sport of alpine ski racing making it both unique and a cornerstone to the discipline. 



Backed by cutting-edge research, the book provides practical guidance on preparing athletes for high performance and understanding the core tenets of sports science underpinning it striking a balance between the complex theoretical and practical components coaches and athletes must prepare for in alpine ski racing. 



Accessibly written and featuring contributions from world-leading experts, The Science of Alpine Ski Racing covers key topics of health, training, and high performance in the sport and will be vital reading for youth coaches, professional ski instructors, strength and conditioning coaches, and sports science staff associated with winter sports programs as well as applied researchers looking for a model to apply to other sports.

He is a certified strength and conditioning specialist (CSCS) as well as registered strength and conditioning coach (RSCC) through the NSCA working with athletes and human performance program managers on a regular basis to find optimal human performance solutions. 



James has presented at conferences around the United States discussing long term athlete development, written over 150 articles for several media outlets, has been published in the NSCA's Strength and Conditioning Journal, and taught courses about strength and conditioning at Colorado Mountain College.

“If something is worth doing, it’s worth overdoing” – Toller CranstonHis best international finish was bronze at the 1976 Innsbruck Olympics, yet Toller Cranston, with his extreme body shapes and theatrical presentation, singlehandedly transformed men’s figure skating from an athletic competition to an art form. He went on to skate professionally, starring in television specials in Canada and the United States, as well as in Broadway shows and at Radio City Music Hall. He made videos with Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell and was fired from the CBC for being too honest as a figure skating commentator.In middle age, he decamped to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, where he produced most of his 20,000 paintings that have been shown in more than 300 exhibitions in galleries and museums around the world. On his death in 2015, he was celebrated for his many accomplishments as a skater, and an artist, and an icon in the LGBTQ community.Toller Cranston: Ice, Paint, Passion by Phillippa Cranston Baran, is a one-of-a-kind book that uses biography, interviews, letters, photos, and original artwork to bring to life the accomplishments and influences of one of the most compelling and inspirational people Canada has ever produced.

A Christmas Adventure

Few sporting events attract as much attention, or create as much spectacle, as the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Each March, despite subzero temperatures and white-out winds, hundreds of dogs and dozens of mushers journey to Anchorage, Alaska, to participate in "The Last Great Race on Earth," a grueling, thousand-mile race across the Alaskan wilderness. 
 
While many veterinarians apply, only a small number are approved to examine the elite canine athletes who, using solely their muscle and an innate drive to race, carry handlers between frozen outposts each year, risking injury, illness, and fatigue along the way. In Four Thousand Paws, award-winning veterinarian Lee Morgan-a member of the Iditarod's expert veterinary corps-tells the story of these heroic dogs, following the teams as they traverse deep spruce forests, climb steep mountain slopes, and navigate over ice-bound rivers toward Nome, on the coast of the Bering Sea, where the famed Burled Arch awaits. 
 
From the huskies of Iditarods past to the intrepid dogs of today, Morgan shows how these fierce competitors surmount the dangers of the Arctic, aided, along the way, by attentive mushers and volunteer veterinarians. A world away from his Georgetown veterinary clinic, Morgan examines dogs at each checkpoint, and sees how their body language reflects the thrill of the race-and how, when pulled from it, they often refuse to eat. As in any team sport, distinct personalities among the sled dogs create complex group dynamics, and Morgan captures moments of intense rivalry, defeat, camaraderie, and, ultimately, triumph. 
 
In the tradition of Why Elephants Weep, Four Thousand Paws is an intimate look inside the animal mind, and an exciting new account of a storied race.

»WE ARE SPECIAL« ist ein Buch, das auf grossartige Weise die Organisation ehrt, die sich seit Jahrzehnten für Menschen mit einer sogenannt geistigen Beeinträchtigung einsetzt: Special Olympics. Was eine solche Beeinträchtigung bedeutet, das wird in diesem Buch auf jeder Seite klar. Das Zauberwort heisst Inklusion. In diesem wunderbaren Projekt, das die Geschichte von Special Olympics nachzeichnet, in dem die Sportlerinnen und Sportler auf ihre Laufbahn zurückblicken und vom unvergesslichen Moment erzählen, als sie auf dem Weg hin zu einer Medaille alles gaben, lernen wir aussergewöhnliche Menschen und ihren Mut kennen. In den Porträts, aufgenommen vom Olympiasieger und Fotografen Iouri Podladtchikov, sehen wir Freude, Stolz, Selbstvertrauen und Siegeswillen. Im Vorwort schreibt Bundesrätin Viola Amherd unter anderem den schönen Satz: »Die Kraft des Sports macht Unvorstellbares möglich.« Und unvorstellbar ist das, was die Athletinnen und Athleten zusammen mit ihren Coaches weit abseits vom grossen Publikumsinteresse leisten, tatsächlich. In »WE ARE SPECIAL« erhalten sie, die im normalen Leben oft abseitsstehen, den Auftritt, den sie mehr als verdient haben. Denn mit ihrem Feu sacré beweisen sie: »Speziell ist nicht, wie du geboren wurdest, speziell ist, was du daraus machst.«

WE ARE SPECIAL

Eishockey ist eine der schnellsten und härtesten Sportarten der Welt, in Deutschland der populärste Mannschaftssport nach Fußball. Ein Millionenpublikum in großen Arenen und vor den Fernsehschirmen liebt die Athletik, Intensität und Geschwindigkeit auf dem Eis. Schlittschuhläuferische Geschicklichkeit und gefühlvolle Puck-Kontrolle gepaart mit harter Zweikampfführung und krachenden Bodychecks machen Eishockey so faszinierend. Neben der sportlichen Dynamik und Komplexität spielt auch die einmalige Stimmung, sei es im Team oder unter den Zuschauern, eine große Rolle. So sehr man sich während des Spiels auch gegenseitig beschimpft und selbst wenn es auf dem Eis manchmal zu Faustkämpfen kommt - unter den Fans herrscht große Loyalität, Gewaltprobleme wie z.B. beim Fußball sind kein Thema. TV-Kommentator und Experte Rick Goldmann, früher selbst erfolgreicher Profi und Nationalspieler, kennt die Highlights, Hintergründe und Herausforderungen des Eishockeys wie kein Zweiter. In seinem Buch zeigt er aus der Perspektive des Insiders, was diesen Sport so faszinierend und einzigartig macht.
