ACROSS THE OCEAN: How Slovaks Settled in America A sweeping epic of hope, heartbreak, and un yielding resilience In 1894, Juraj Sobota leaves his village and loved ones, chasing a dream of prosperity in America. Instead of streets paved with gold, he finds the brutal reality of industrial Pittsburgh. Will the bold gamble on the New World lead to triumph-or heartbreak? Brought to life with 16 vivid illustrations, this book unveils the story of a family at the turn of the 19th century, woven into the sweeping saga of Ameri ca's immigrant heritage.

The War is just over. In Venice, a city elaborately and affectionately described, the American Colonel, Richard Cantrell, falls passionately in love with Renata, a young Italian countess who has 'a profile that could break your or anyone else's heart'. Cantrell is embittered, war-scarred and old enough to be Renata's father, but he is overwhelmed by the selflessness and freshness of the love she is offering. But this is no fairy tale. The fighting may be ended, but the wounds of war have not yet healed. And for some, the longed-for peace has come too late. A lesser known classic by one of the great American writers of the twentieth century, Across the River And Into The Trees is still vintage Hemingway.

While it is widely recognized that music contributes to the health and well-being of societies, the reverse is not necessarily true. Being a professional musician is a rewarding yet challenging occupation, and the results of newer survey studies show musicians experience psychological challenges, like depression and anxiety, at much higher rates than adults in the general public. This book introduces Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) as an intervention for addressing some of the most common problems facing student and professional musicians across the world. A broadly applicable model for behavior change, ACT can be used by professionals in both clinical and non-clinical settings with adequate training.

The Act of Creation begins where this view ceases to be true. Koestler affirms that all creatures have the capacity for creative activity, frequently suppressed by the automatic routines of thought and behavior that dominate their lives. The study of psychology has offered little in the way of an explanation of the creative process, and Koestler suggests that we are at our most creative when rational thought is suspended - for example in dreams and trance-like states. Then the mind is capable of receiving inspiration and insight.Taking humor as his starting point, Koestler examines what he terms 'bisociative' thinking - the creative leap made by the mind that gives rise to new and startling perceptions and glimpses of reality. From here he assesses the workings of the mind of the scientific or artistic genius. The general reader as well as the reader with a deeper knowledge of the topics covered will find this richly documented study of creativity both illuminating and compelling.

After dealing with a series of obstacles and life challenges, Kino MacGregor experienced a revelation. Whether eating, speaking, writing, traveling, or living, she pledged to let everything she did in life be an act of love. Just like that, the seed of a new world was planted as she began to integrate this simple yet truly life-changing principle into her daily routine. In a guide shared to help others attain spiritual growth, love, and true happiness, MacGregor presents a new paradigm that promotes an entirely new way of living and being. While offering anecdotal stories from her own journey as well as the journeys of students and fellow spiritual practitioners, she leads others down a courageous path inward to reset the mind to overcome heartache, become more aware, and embrace the process of awakening. Through moving stories, trusted advice, and meditation and reflection points, MacGregor sets up the parameters of love, action, and the ultimate shift that teaches students of life how to truly act from love in all we do, say, and become. Act of Love shares anecdotes, advice, and guidance that will help anyone reprogram the mind, choose a new outlook, and follow a simple roadmap to attain true love and happiness in life.

This updated and expanded edition expands some of the subjects that were discreetly touched on in the earlier edition, explores how the latest discoveries in the field of medicine and social practice confirm the principles taught in the book.

Do you know a teen that's been bitten by the acting bug? Here's just the book they need! "Acting for Young Actors", aimed at teens and tweens, lets kids hone their skills and develop their craft. It begins with the five W's: Who am I? What do I want? Why do I want it? Where am I? When does this event take place? Sounds basic - but many young child actors are told simply to "get up there and act." This book explores each of these questions, using helpful exercises to allow young actors to work through problems of character identity and motivation. With comprehensive chapters on auditioning, rehearsal, and improvisation, plus a primer on how young actors can break into film, theatre, and television, "Acting for Young Actors" is every kid's ticket to the big time. It is aimed at teens age 12-18, and is written in a full accessible style.

Brief and to-the-point, this guide offers the wisdom gained from Michael Caine's 25 years in film to film actors and fans. It includes chapters on preparation, close-ups, the art of spontaneity, voice, characterization, behaviour on and off the set, working with directors and being a star.
