  Robert Craig Knievel (October 17, 1938 - November 30, 2007), known as Evel Knievel, was an American stunt performer and entertainer, born in Butte, Montana. Throughout his career, he attempted more than 75 ramp-to-ramp motorcycle jumps. Knievel's most famous stunts include a 1967 jump over the fountains at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, which infamously resulted in severe injuries, and a September 8, 1974, attempt to jump across the Snake River Canyon in Idaho using a rocket-powered cycle called the Skycycle X-2. The jump failed after the parachute deployed prematurely, but Knievel survived with minor injuries. The following recordings are from interviews in 1970, 1972, 1974, and in 1975 after Knievel jumped 14 Greyhound buses.

  Fitness for Weight Loss -...

  Weight loss is a multifaceted process that involves much more than simply eating less and exercising more. It is a combination of lifestyle changes, understanding the science behind body composition, and making choices that are sustainable over time. Fitness plays a central role in this journey, not only for shedding pounds but also for improving overall health and wellness. In this chapter, we will explore the fundamentals of weight loss fitness, setting realistic goals, and how exercise fits into the equation. 
  At the core of weight loss is the concept of a calorie deficit, which means burning more calories than you consume. While nutrition plays a significant role in creating this deficit, exercise increases the number of calories your body burns. Exercise also helps preserve muscle mass while losing fat, which is crucial because muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue. It’s essential to understand that weight loss is not just about “burning off” what you eat but about creating a balanced approach that incorporates both diet and fitness. 
  Exercise has an important role in supporting long-term weight loss. While nutrition accounts for a significant portion of weight management, fitness ensures that the weight loss process remains healthy and sustainable. Cardio exercises, such as running or cycling, help burn calories quickly and effectively, while strength training builds lean muscle, which boosts metabolism. Flexibility and mobility exercises reduce the risk of injury, improving overall physical capacity. A well-rounded fitness routine allows you to address different aspects of physical health, making it easier to maintain weight loss over time.

  A refreshing memoir of battles and self-belief from one of the NHL's most revered enforcers 
   
   
   
  Shawn Thornton was an unlikely NHL success, to say the least. The Oshawa, Ontario, native was picked late in the OHL and later thought he was being pranked when the Toronto Maple Leafs called him to say he'd been selected in the seventh round of the 1997 NHL draft. 
   
   
   
  After years spent working and maturing in the AHL, Thornton would go on to play fourteen seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks, Anaheim Ducks, Boston Bruins, and Florida Panthers, winning two Stanley Cups along the way. 
   
   
   
  For the first time, in this candid memoir, Thornton opens up about his life in hockey and beyond, from his early days as an unrated prospect to the leadership lessons he learned in the minors, from the most difficult on-ice brawls to the ecstasy of reaching the sport's most celestial heights. 
   
   
   
  Fans will not want to miss this story of perseverance and finding one's own path.
