Silk Road Kung Fu Friendship Tour by Gregory Brundage Pdf
The Silk Road Kung Fu Friendship Tour - Volume 2 - picks up where the first book left off meeting and often training with the masters of Wushu-Kung Fu, while exploring ancient histories and modern cultures of the world's preeminent trade routes of the Silk Roads. This volume starts in Pakistan in December 2017 and travels from north to south, Islamabad through Lahore and ending in Karachi. This was followed by visits to Gansu Province in China, Qatar in the Middle East, Addis Ababa and the Tigray region in Ethiopia, Vietnam, Japan, Indonesia, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Yuyao in China; then Thailand and finally Hong Kong in late November and early December 2019. The book concludes with the affirmation that Kung Fu is not just kicks and punches or martial arts but also the skills and disciplines required to live and perform well in a mutually beneficial and respectful way. This is also called "Tao," the foundation of "morality" in Chinese, "dàodé" (道德virtue / morality / ethics). And so, the (武林 wǔlín) martial arts (social) circles expand.

'80s Action Movies on the Cheap by Daniel R. Budnik Pdf
The 1980s was the decade when the action film as it's now known came into being. Nonstop, big-budget excitement became the standard as epic adventures like Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Road Warrior set the tone for the summer blockbusters of Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Chuck Norris. Homages (and ripoffs) made with lesser budgets followed every hit, especially with the advent of direct-to-video releases. Providing detailed commentary on 284 films, this book explores the excitement, audacity and sheer weirdness of '80s low budget action cinema, from the American Ninja series to dime-a-dozen barbarian pictures to such bargain-basement productions as The Courier of Death, Kill Squad and Samurai Cop.
Hit the Road, Jack by Gordon E. Slethaug,Stacilee Ford Pdf
All travelers know the seductive power of the open road and its suggestions of possibility, escape, renewal, and reinvention. Hit the Road, Jack is an interdisciplinary exploration of the significance of the road as reality and metaphor. Engaging with varied cultural mediums such as literature, reality television, philosophy, and political rhetoric, this collection delves deeply into the symbolic implications of the road. Insightful and accessible essays draw upon both classic "road" texts and films, while investigating themes of individual and national freedom, independence and mobility, and destiny. Referencing postmodern theory, gender and queer studies, as well as personal reminiscence and narrative research, Hit the Road, Jack considers the impact that identity - particularly race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation - has on the way various journeys are taken. While literary depictions of the road have a long history, scholarship about the phenomenon is sparse. This anthology makes a significant contribution to the study of the road, bringing to light aspects of its iconic status in American culture. Contributors include Paul Attinello (Newcastle University), Stacilee Ford (University of Hong Kong), Eleanor Heginbotham (University of Maryland), Susan Kuyper (Des Moines Area Community College), Gina Marchetti (University of Hong Kong), Cotton Seiler (Dickinson University), Max J. Skidmore (University of Missouri-Kansas City), Gordon Slethaug (University of Southern Denmark), Michael Truscello (Mount Royal University), and Wendy Zierler (Hebrew Union College -Jewish Institute of Religion, New York).

In 1999, Ville Platte, Louisiana resident and sports nut Tim Fontenot longed to do something to celebrate this small town’s prep football city championship.
