Book Description
Everything you need for a thumb-thumping throwdown! Thumb wrestling is such a time-tested, universally admired life skill for kids that, frankly, we're surprised by how long it's taken for it to get the Klutz treatment. But there is no rushing the awesomeness that is The Sleeve of Doom. Sleek, shiny and sensational, The Sleeve of Doom is the ultimate instrument of combat. Two contenders slide their hands in and clasp them together, poking their thumbs through the holes. The sleeve prevents cheating by locking the hands in place. Thumb Wars: The Ultimate Guide covers everything from classic challenges, strategies and training exercises to fake-outs, trash talk and never-before-played games. Since image is everything in the wrestling world, some clever thumb names and flashy costume ideas are also included. There's even a handy referee guide and score cards. All of which makes Thumb Wars more than just a book. It's the official rules of thumb.

When the Body Politic declared an end to war, no less than three soldiers were outraged. Gertrude has been involved in war since time immemorial, and though these soldiers have reached the maximum age to serve they still feel slighted. To be the change they’d like to see in the world, Sal Cur, Huxley, and Magnus develop political aspirations. To abolish the age restriction the group seek unrivaled power. There is no war for them to fight until Gertrude suffers a natural disaster. With an enemy found, Sal Cur institutes the actions he promised campaigning. An academy is set up to train children who have lost some sense. This is the Mission for Excellent Soldiers Society. Its aim is to weaponize post-traumatic stress. After Maura Honor suffers an accident, she is invited from her hospital bed to a graduation ceremony for the First Class. Maura and the other pledges commit to a three year sentence.

Middle East Rules of Thumb
Author: Steven Carol
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059548235X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Middle East Rules of Thumb is of interest to anyone that seeks a better understanding of the complexities of the Middle East-its history, politics, diplomacy, and culture. Through the 50 rules and their appendices, Professor Steven Carol offers a realistic historical perspective on this important region. As has been constantly pointed out by such media monitors as Honest Reporting, Palestine Media Watch, and CAMERA, Middle East issues can often become muddled and confusing, particularly since the mainstream media often commits sins of biased omission-leaving out important information that can help the public comprehend the entire picture. The highly reliable information presented in Middle East Rules of Thumb seeks to counteract these inaccuracies. Readers will gain insight by applying these rules when hearing or reading news or commentaries on these subjects. Middle East Rules of Thumb is the product of many years of academic research. It will not be readily dated, like many other books in the field, because the underlying principles compiled here are valid and immutable. It belongs in the "reference" category for anyone concerned with war and peace in the Middle East.
