As a Mizzou fan, you have been to the same Big 12 Conference locales, from Lubbock to Lincoln, for years. You have known the long-standing traditions, the can't-miss restaurants, the best bars. It's a comfortable feeling, similar to your dislike of Kansas. Then you wake up on November 7, 2011, to the announcement that the Tigers are switching leagues, jumping into the snake pit called the Southeastern Conference! And they are doing it starting the 2012 football season. Your mind shifts into overdrive, considering questions about the SEC, your new athletic universe, such as: Is Fayetteville, AR at the end of the earth? No, but you can see the end from there. Why do I need earplugs when I visit Starkville, MS? Because the SEC deemed it legal for Mississippi State fans to ring their beloved cowbells whenever the ball is not in play. Who's the biggest figure in SEC football history, Alabama coach Bear Bryant or Florida quarterback Tim Tebow? It's a draw. Both have their own statues outside their respective stadiums. Does the Tennessee band know how to play any song but "Rocky Top?" No, they play it repeatedly until you throw yourself off the top of Neyland Stadium. The Mizzou Fan's Survival Guide to the SEC is your shortcut to instantly and easily navigating the most competitive and hardest-partying college conference in the nation. Be prepared for the brave new world of the SEC.

This is a 3-book bundle, which addresses various subtopics, including but not limited to these: Book 1: When it all hits the fan, some know how to survive and some don’t. Knowledge and experience are at the root of survival in troubled times. We do not always know when those times come, so it can be useful to explore the possibilities of living off the grid, becoming independent, and living without water from the faucet, electricity, or internet. In this book, we’ll touch on some of the most important elements of survival, such as: Creating water filters Getting clean, purified water. Staying cool during hot seasons without technology or airconditioning. Surviving in the winter and enduring extreme cold weather. Book 2: This book covers a range of topics that don’t seem to be related at first, but if you look closer, you’ll see the bigger picture. All of these topics are more or less connected to the idea of fending for yourself, being able to survive off the grid, or in case of a major disaster. The first chapter focuses on something specific: Survival in the jungle. As we all know, the jungle is beautiful but also infested with bacteria, bugs, venomous and predatorial animals, and full of both toxic and edible plants. Learning what to do there can make all the difference if you were ever to make it through in such a climate. Last but not least, we’ll go over some self-defense techniques and gadgets people could use to defend themselves if they ever get attacked or cornered. Book 3: In this short but informative book, we will focus on three essentials of survival skills: First, we’ll talk about the best ways to purify water. This, alone, is something all people need to know. Water can make you sick or heal you and keep you alive. Knowing what you’re doing, is what will help you most. Second, the book focuses on First Aid skills. If you ever get wounded, exhausted, dehydrated, or you encounter something like a sprained ankle or major bruise, what do you do? You rely on your knowledge and fix it! Learn how in this book! Third, an emphasis is placed on finding water in the desert. Many misconceptions about this have been circling around on the internet. It is our mission to help you learn the truth: What works and what doesn’t.

Avatar is the most successful movie of all time, surpassing the record held by James Cameron's previous monster hit, Titanic. It is also the most expensive movie ever. With its adoption of modern 3D techniques, Avatar is arguably the most spectacular film of all time. Kevin Patrick Mahoney explores how Avatar has reached this pinnacle of success. The film has not been universally praised; some critics have pointed to an overly simple plot and dialogue. However, Kevin reveals that there are many complex themes that lie behind such apparent simplicity. This book begins with an in-depth review of events as they happen on screen, including the many scenes deleted from the film, and then proceeds to explore some of the most interesting themes in more depth. Kevin examines how James Cameron has adapted Joseph Campbell's theory of the Hero's Journey in Avatar. The Na'vi's planet, Pandora, is very paradisiacal, so this book discusses how it's related to the Biblical Garden of Eden. In addition to this, Kevin dissects Avatar's rather confused politics, the controversial depiction of the US Marine Corps, and the accusations of racism that have hurled at the film. Since Jake Sully is introduced to us in a wheelchair, Kevin examines the representation of disabled people in Avatar and other science fiction dramas. Some of Avatar's subtle depictions of sexuality seemed to be mainly directed at adolescent boys, so this book also dissects some of the more 'blue' aspects of the movie. Moreover, Kevin Patrick Mahoney reveals how Avatar relates to James Cameron's previous blockbuster movies.
