Tiki Barber's Pure Hard Workout: Stop Wasting Time and Start Building Real Strength and Muscle
The former NFL great, now a Today show correspondent, teams up with his renowned trainer to reveal the phenomenal lifting program that made him a gridiron star. As a running back for the New York Giants, Tiki Barber smashed team records and made numerous Pro Bowl appearances. But when he first entered the league he was seen as too slight to be an every-down player, let alone a star. That all changed when he met Joe Carini, a mountain of a man with a powerful program for whole-body strengthening based on his experience as a champion powerlifter. After working with Joe, Tiki became pound-for-pound the strongest man in the NFL and a true force on the field. Now Tiki and Joe provide everyone with the strength secrets that led to such a dazzling career. Tiki Barber’s Pure Hard Workout is based on a rigorous powerlifting regimen that shuns machines and returns to intense, basic lifts like squats and deadlifts. The ins and outs of stretching, warming up, and resistance-based cardio workouts are covered as well, along with nutrition advice for emphasizing muscle-building foods. The book’s design is just as unique as its contents, filled with three hundred exhilarating full-color photographs that capture Tiki performing each exercise, including Carini specials like the kettle bell pullover and the “Tiki bag.” In-depth instructions guide readers through the muscle groups and make it clear how to execute each move. And Tiki is living proof that you don’t have to be an NFL pro to stay motivated: Even after his departure from the game, he continues to make Joe’s plan his lifelong power program..

Genius Denied: How to Stop Wasting Our Brightest Young Minds
With all the talk of failing schools these days, we often forget that schools can fail their brightest students too. Gifted children forced into a "one size fits all" approach to schooling find themselves bored or frustrated, which can lead to underachievement, behavioral problems, or depression. Without sufficient challenges and resources, say Jan and Bob Davidson, America's brightest young minds languish, never reaching their full potential. Society can't afford that loss. In Genius Denied, the Davidsons -- founders of a nonprofit institute that provides assistance to gifted children -- offer hope and practical advice to parents and students alike. Through their own experiences and those of the families they've worked with, the Davidsons show parents how to find an appropriate education for their children, when to go outside the school system, and how to create a support network with school authorities and other parents.

Wasting Time With God : A Christian Spirituality of Friendship With God
When it comes to developing a deep, trusting relationship with God, efficiency and productivity are not the answer. It's far better to "waste" time with him, to just enjoy being with him. After all, that's how any friendship grows. But making room for God in the midst of our fast-paced lives is not an easy task. Just as time with our best friends can get squeezed out by the rush of activities, so can time with God. Even "wasting time" with God means making a commitment and setting priorities--whether it's something we enjoy or not. Beginning with the supposition that God desires friendship with us, Klaus Issler encourages us to consider seven character traits and to develop their companion disciplines: friendship, humility, faith, commitment, communication, apprenticeship and partnership. Here is a full-orbed model of Christian spirituality that will be of lasting value. .

Always Postpone Meetings With Time-Wasting Morons
From mountain and valley, from hill and dale, people are asking, "How can I have more Dilbert in my life?" Help is at hand with a blast from the past in Scott Adams' very first compilation of Dilbert comic strips, Always Postpone Meetings with Time-Wasting Morons. It is tempting to compare Adams' work to that of Leonardo da Vinci. The differences are striking. Adams displays good jokes and strong character development, whereas da Vinci has been skating for years on his ability to do shading. Advantage: Adams. And though it may seem boorish to point this out, da Vinci wrote backwards. And he's dead. Advantage: Adams. The choice is clear. Fans looking for a book which will stand the test of time, even beyond the time you spend flipping through it in the bookstore (for which the author receives no royalties whatsoever), should buy this book. Those who are not good comparison shoppers can buy the Mona Lisa..
