 <blockquote>A feature film, SPEED KILLS, starring John Travolta, based on my book,  premieres in Fall 2018.Watch the trailer:<a href="https://www.screendaily.com/news/first-look-trailer-john-travolta-in-speedboat-drama-speed-kills-exclusive/5129868.article">https://www.screendaily.com/news/first-look-trailer-john-travolta-in-speedboat-drama-speed-kills-exclusive/5129868.article</a>The most famous speedboat racer, the creator of the famous Cigarette fast boats, the boat of choice for drug smugglers, is murdered in Miami in broad daylight in front of dozens of witnesses. The case takes police ten years to solve -- and leaves questions to whether they got it right.Speed Kills was originally published by Avon Books.Miami Herald:  Ocean racing superstar Don Aronow loved when writers called him a legend. His life of adventure is well known. It is his death that baffles police. In his final hour, when a stranger talked about killing, Aronow laughed. He felt no fear until he lowered the window of his Mercedes and looked death in the face. Then it was too late.BORDERING A CANAL LEADING TO BISCAYNE BAY, a short dead-end stretch of Northeast 188th Street in Miami was the crossroad of the Americas in the mid-1980s for the biggest drug smugglers into the U.S.; the guys who ripped off the drug smugglers; the biggest South American drug suppliers; competing federal agencies investigating major drug trafficking and money laundering; the CIA, covertly advancing the Contra war against Central American land reform (which they called Cuban-sponsored communism); some of the highest national politicians in the country—and what attracted them all there, the most famous fast-boat companies in the world.</blockquote>On that splashy boulevard of (wet) dreams factories built marine magazine-ad ultra-sleek gleaming speedboats ostensibly for racers, royalty to show off on the Côte d’Azur, and wealthy divorced or divorcing middle-age overweight men to pick up South Florida’s sun-soaked hot chicks in string bikinis (while the rest of us unwashed wondered how they did it), but the boat builders’ real business was fueling an arms race between smugglers, who purchased them for cash, and Drug War feds to catch smugglers.The storied creator of the quantum-leap faster Cigarette boat, against which all other “penis” boats were measured, as well as a two-time powerboat racing world champion and the personification of a sport in which people crazily risked their lives and bodies to win—not to mention a wicked ladies’ man to boot, Don Aronow was shot and killed in broad daylight in front of his factory in 1987. Police found they didn’t just have a murder mystery—they had Murder on the Orient Express.

 Ammunition, Demystified is Hatcher’s Notebook for the twenty-first century. It’s a "soft" technical document intended for small caliber ammunition design and production engineers, as well as more advanced shooters and reloaders who want a more in-depth understanding of how guns and ammunition work and interact with one another. There is very little that is truly simple about small arms ammunition due to the enormous stresses to which the bullet and cartridge case structures are subjected during the firing process and the nonlinear material properties of these ammunition components. Ammunition Demystified untangles these interactions and will help put you on the path of increased understanding of a simple yet complex topic. This book encapsulates the technical knowledge acquired on bullets, cartridge cases, barrels, and ammunition testing over a career spanning four decades. It is a useful reference for shooters, reloaders, and "ammo guys" to assist them when they troubleshoot the mechanical and dispersion performance of their firearms and ammunition.Ammunition Demystified topics covered are•cartridge cases and case-chamber interaction•propellants and interior ballistics•projectile design, aerodynamics, and stability•trajectory, dispersion, accuracy•barrel: manufacture, fatigue life•ammunition: pressure and velocity testing, and load developmentwww.bulletology.com

Checkmate : Bobby Fischer'S Boys' Life Columns - Bobby Fischer'S Boys' Life Columns

de Bobby Fischer

11,91€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 A Look into Bobby's Mind From December 1966 until January 1970, Bobby Fischer wrote a chess column for Boys' Life, the official magazine of the Boy Scouts of America. Now, for the first time, all of these columns have been collected in one volume. It is an eclectic mix, a fascinating look at Fischer's writing and thinking as he reached his prime, maturing into the strongest player in the world. In these columns, he answers many readers' questions - from basic to sophisticated. His answers provide a unique glimpse into Fischer's thinking at the chessboard. The time period covered in these columns was one of the most critical in Fischer's career. It was during this time period that his opus magnum, My Sixty Memorable Games, was released. And as player, he grew from one of a few super-grandmasters to the best player in the world. The only thing missing was an actual title match. That of course would soon come. A couple of technical mistakes he points out include a lack of understanding of the tremendous importance controlling the center makes as well as knowing what features in a position should be present in order for an attack to be likely to work. Among other observations, he gets on amateur players for being easily bored, impatient, lazy, and stubborn. And all of this comes with lucid examples from master play that back up his contentions. These columns are a diverse collection of tips for players, comments on playing, annotated games and casual observations. The games and annotations are presented in modern English algebraic notation. As Andy Soltis notes in his foreword, "You read [Fischer's Boys' Life columns] to see what was going on in that remarkable mind. As quirky as Checkmate was, these columns tell us a lot."
