"May I Come In?" is a collection of short poems about different aspects of our day-to-day life. The author has chosen this title to represent two facets of her thinking: acceptance of her flow of thoughts, those which have been knocking doors of her mind and waiting to be expressed as words, and a knock on the readers' hearts for acceptance of her work and enjoying them
May La Poi is an anthology dedicated to the celebrations of the 1st day of May by the Poets of NLHF. 'Poila May' means 1st of May in Bengali. Hence the name is derived from Bengali by reversing the syllables.The idea is to write Japanese Lanturne poems with a unique mathematical title for each poem. Mathematically calculated 'Titles' are given to each poem. This formula for deriving a unique title for each poem was invented by Noel Lorenz on 30th day of April 2023. Using this formula, two poems can never have the same title. As all men are unique, all poems are unique. Like man, like poem.The first ever 'May La Poi' festival is dedicated to 'Raunak Saluja', the manager of 'Kaerou Ze Japanese Concept Community' for his dedication to the international writing community under Noel Lorenz House of Fiction.Come, let us enjoy the 'May La Poi' festival.
Much as in other locations around the world, civil uprising, particularly rooted in the activism of young people and students, plagued France during May of 1968. Massive strikes and occupations succeeded in paralysing France’s economy and bringing the country to the verge of a leftist revolution. This book studies the life trajectories of many ordinary protesters during the period, using statistics and personal narratives to analyse how this activism arose, its impact on people’s personal and professional lives, and its transmission through familial generations.
The dramatic defence of the Netherlands in May 1940 against the German invasion lasted only five days. It started with a massive German airborne landing in the capital west of the country and ended with a, for those days impressive, German air bombardment of the harbour-city of Rotterdam, devastating the city centre and shocking the Dutch supreme command. When hours later another major Dutch community was threatened with destruction from the air the Dutch supreme command decided to surrender. How was it possible that a flat, water-rich country was seized so quickly by only modest German forces? The brief Dutch defence in May 1940 is often mocked and usually dismissed as a logical consequence of its poorly equipped and prepared armed forces. Although to some extent these conclusions may be correct, there was a much deeper cause for that quick Dutch defeat. This book elaborates on the birth of the Dutch defence strategy during the thirties, the shaping processes it went through when the tension rose, the political leverage and the developments of strategic planning within the armed forces. The crucial element that enriches this dynamic pre-war period was a politically driven late change of supreme command that fundamentally changed the military planning from a joint strategy with the southern neighbours to an isolated and disconnected defence of the capital northwest of the country. When the German invasion of 10 May 1940 transformed the Dutch cold war strategy into a hot operational strategy, the book follows the Dutch supreme command during its crucial first hours, its decision-making processes and adjustments and the anticipation of both allied and enemy manoeuvres. The book is extensively enriched with situational maps and endnotes for citations, sources and archive references.
MAY THE SKILL BE WITH YOU - How to accelerate skill acquisition in Self-Defense.Itsepuolustaitojen oppimisen kerrotaan vievän pitkän ajan ja ainoastaan tuhansien toistojen jälkeen saavutetaan riittävä taito. May the skill be with you - kirja esittelee uuden tavan ajatella ja toteuttaa itsepuolustusharjoittelua siten, että taidon oppimiseen ei todellakaan mene vuosia. Kirjassa perehdytään oppimiseen ja erityisesti ekologisen dynamiikan hyödyntämiseen itsepuolustustaidon oppimisessa. Kirjoittaja, Tommi Nyström, kertoo käytännönläheisesti, miten harjoitukset tulee rakentaa siten, että oppiminen tukeutuu alusta saakka tilanteenmukaisuuteen ja tätä kautta siirtyy osaamiseksi. Teos on kirjoitettu englannin kielellä, mutta hyvin ymmärrettäväksi ja soveltuu käytettäväksi niin oppilaitoksissa kuin urheiluseuratoiminnassa laadukkaana perusteoksena itsepuolustuksen ja voimankäytön opettamisen suunnittelun ja toteuttamisen runkona. Ohessa on tarkempi englanninkielinen esittely.Self-Defense is a life-hack that everyone must know. The general understanding is that one will have to train for years to be able to defend themselves in a real life situation. True and not, since just like years playing with a car simulator, doesn't guarantee that we'll be able to handle changing conditions in the traffic, nor does the formative, repetitive training of single techniques, or series of techniques, of self-defense. Movement is technique and every technique requires movement. To learn to optimize the movements needed in self-defense situations, requires a new kind of approach to the training. In this book, you will discover training methods that accelerate the pace of skill acquisition and learning tremendously. The key is to understand how to use ecological dynamics and especially the constraints-led approach as a skill accelerator, how you can vary your training so that the skill acquisition is constant and your ability to respond to the changing situations increases rapidly.

"I've known it since last night: It's been too long to expect them to return. Something's happened." "If May is a brave, stubborn fighter, the short, free-verse lines are one-two punches in this Laura Ingalls Wilder-inspired ode to the human spirit," raved "Kirkus Reviews" in a starred review. May is helping out on a neighbor's Kansas prairie homestead just until Christmas, says Pa. She wants to contribute, but it's hard to be separated from her family by 15 long, unfamiliar miles. Then the unthinkable happens: May is abandoned. Trapped in a tiny snow-covered sod house, isolated from family and neighbors, May must prepare for the oncoming winter. While fighting to survive, May's memories of her struggles with reading at school come back to haunt her. But she's determined to find her way home again. Caroline Starr Rose's fast-paced novel, written in beautiful and riveting verse, gives readers a strong new heroine to love."

She is a curator, who spends her time dressing the rooms of historic buildings to bring them to life. But in the lush private quarters of a medieval palace, she finds herself so transfixed by the reign of an almost-forgotten King that the edges of her life begin to blur. He is a reluctant ruler with no hunger for power, rushed to the throne after the untimely deaths of his older brothers. But it isn't long before whispers begin to fly around the court. And with the growing belief that the King is not fit for the throne comes the idea that another might rule in his stead. May We Feed the King dances between the lives of a historical subject who risks the future of his kingdom and a woman who turns to the past to hide from her present. Laced with desire and longing, it is a playful, stirring meditation on history and storytelling: on what makes a King 'Great', and a life meaningful.
