"Learning the game of power requires a certain way of looking at the world, a shifting of perspective," writes Robert Greene. Mastery of one's emotions and the arts of deception and indirection are, he goes on to assert, essential. The 48 laws outlined in this book "have a simple premise: certain actions always increase one's power ... while others decrease it and even ruin us."
The laws cull their principles from many great schemers--and scheming instructors--throughout history, from Sun-Tzu to Talleyrand, from Casanova to con man Yellow Kid Weil. They are straightforward in their amoral simplicity: "Get others to do the work for you, but always take the credit," or "Discover each man's thumbscrew." Each chapter provides examples of the consequences of observance or transgression of the law, along with "keys to power," potential "reversals" (where the converse of the law might also be useful), and a single paragraph cleverly laid out to suggest an image (such as the aforementioned thumbscrew); the margins are filled with illustrative quotations. Practitioners of one-upmanship have been given a new, comprehensive training manual, as up-to-date as it is timeless.

Writing is my most time-consuming hobby and I have found that this book is a great introduction to the basic skills involved in writing. Whether you are a professional or a beginner, it's helpful to have this guide to establish a basic foundation for writing effectively. It is also a great reference tool in case you happen to forget one of the basic techniques.
Oxford lays a solid foundation for writing with style
Whatever your experience or expertise as a writer, you can always benefit from new techniques for fleshing out ideas, developing technique or revising work, not to mention brushing up on the rules of punctuation, grammar and style.
All of this and more is covered in tremendous detail in The Oxford Essential Guide to Writing.
Author Thomas Kane, who also penned other guides for Oxford, explains the premise for this guide:
"Obviously, there are limits: one cannot learn to write like Shakespeare or Charles Dickens. You can't become a genius by reading a book.
"But you don't have to be a genius to write clear, effective English. You just have to understand what writing involves and to know how to handle words and sentences and paragraphs. That you can learn. If you do, you can communicate what you want to communicate in words other people can understand. This book will help by showing you what good writers do."
The Oxford Essential Guide to Writing is divided into several parts which address a variety of issues. These include:
* The Writing Process
* The Essay
* The Expository Paragraph
* The Sentence
* Diction
* Description And Narration
* Punctuation
Many shy away from writing guides, such as this. They believe it's hard work to read and even harder work to apply. Not so with The Oxford Essential Guide to Writing. It is written in an authoritative but disarming manner, scattered with poignant quotes from some of the masters of the craft, which make it accessible to scribes of all levels.
It explains in simple layperson's terms the processes and mechanics of writing. The chapters also feature practical exercises for workshopping ~ an excellent way to understand and apply what you've just read.
I particularly liked the `Drafts and Revisions' chapter, which offered some solid techniques and advice on refining work. Also the examples of style and technique from literary greats, such as Mark Twain, H.L. Mencken, E.B. White and Annie Dillard.
Another excellent writers' guide from Oxford. This is an essential reference for new and veteran wordsmiths. Newcomers will gain comprehensive instruction in the art of writing, including techniques for encouraging creativity, organizing thoughts and clear writing. As for experienced scribes, this guide will remind you what you've forgotten and, most importantly, it will help you add that `something missing' to your writing.

Three Origami Books by Kunihiko Kasahara
All are in Rapidshare Folder Code:[rapidshare.com]
Origami Omnibus - Paper Folding For Everybody
Code:http://rapidshare.com/files/48554633...ybody__en_.pdf
Book Description
In this encyclopedic book, Kunihiko Kasahara, who has already published over a hundred volumes on origami, provides sufficient diversity of content to appeal to people from all walks of life. The book employs both traditional and modern methods and introduces folds readily accessible to the beginner and others calculated to challenge the expert. Having devoted himself to the field for over twenty-five years, the author believes that origami is a precious part of the human heritage and that all origamians should strive to enrich it further.
Origami Omnibus pdf is from a scanned copy of the book.
Origami Made Easy
Code:http://rapidshare.com/files/48554632..._easy__en_.pdf
From Code:[www.giladorigami.com] this website for descriptions of the origami examples in the book)
"This is one of the books I tend to recommend for beginner folders. The simplicity of the models, together with the lovely designs and variety of subjects represented, makes this a great book to start with.
"The biggest short-coming of this book, however, is that the English translation of the terms used in folding is almost always different than the English terms which we used today. So a mountain-fold is called a peak-fold, reverse-folds are called hood and pocket-fold, etc. Another issue is the complete lack of indication as to which side of the paper should we start folding on, as the diagrams are all one (white) colored. This is basically left for the folder to figure out.
"Still, taking in mind that this book was published in 1973, it's a great little volume to work with when you need easy and effective models."
Origami Made Easy pdf is from a scanned version of the book.
Extreme Origami
Code:http://rapidshare.com/files/48554631...igami__en_.pdf
Book Description
Explore the far edges of what’s possible with “the new origami.� The objects are fantastic, but the folding techniques use simple triangles and squares, pyramids, and cubes. Master spiral designs, multi-pointed stars, 9-sided gift boxes, and 12-sided gyroscopic whirligigs. More elaborate designs invite you into the outer-space world of stars with starbeams and 8-sided flying saucers, whimsical crows in the grass, gorgeous nested boxes, and sculptured gift containers.
From the Back Cover
Move beyond the boundaries of traditional origami and cross new dimensions of creativity. These innovations to a classic craft are so extensive they could be called revolutionary! You'll use new materials, forms, and folding and design techniques. That's what makes this type of origami extreme and exciting. But what you'll find most satisfying about it are the projects you'll create, whether you're breaking symmetry to fashion a cat family or producing super pinwheel-cube modules.
The Extreme Origami PDF was made by someone taking pictures of the book.

Windows XP CD Extreme Makeover All-In-One
Windows Your Own Way!
AIO eBook: MSFN's Unattended XP CD
AIO Theme: Elvis Presley - My Way
Includes:
01- XPlite and 2000lite Professional v1.6
02- XP Recovery CD Maker v1.01.05
03- nLite 1.0 Beta 6
04- Windows Unattended CD Creator v0.9.7
05- Windows XP PowerPacker v1.0 RC6.2
06- XPCREATE CD Creator
01- XPlite and 2000lite Professional v1.6
With XPlite and 2000lite we give YOU the power to set up YOUR machine the way YOU want! The power to remove unwanted features, the power to remove upgrades that go bad, the power to strip potential security and privacy threats out by the roots.
M1crosoft locked Windows away from you ... We have the keys:XPlite and 2000lite Professional
Features:
- Repair:
More than a powerful configuration utility - XPlite and 2000lite give you amazing control to repair Windows as well. If a particular technology gives you trouble you can completely remove it, and then reinstall it as cleanly as the day Windows was first installed on your computer.
- Security:
The ultimate security system? There can be little argument that certain M1crosoft technologies have proven themselves to put your privacy, security and system stability at risk. The sheer number of Windows Update security fixes that are released on an almost daily basis testify to this fact. You can choose alternate technologies to avoid the security risks, yet the flawed components remain on your system unused, until the next irresponsible hacker or malicious script takes advantage of the situation. Everybody should be running with the latest patches and Service Packs - but is this enough? XPlite and 2000lite allow you to completely remove features that might put you at risk. For example - many email viruses use Outlook Express and the Windows Address Book to invade your privacy and that of your friends whose addresses you have stored. If you choose to use an alternate email system then XPlite and 2000lite allow you to totally remove Outlook Express and the Windows Address Book from your system. Now you know you are protected!
- Windows your way:
Modular by design! - What comes out, goes back in! Each uninstaller is coupled with an equally powerful installer so you can recover uninstalled components as easy as ticking a check box.
New! For our business customers we now offer batch and unattended configuration of multiple workstations from CDROM or network media (v 1.2 upwards). Managing and configuring new and existing systems to reconfigure the operating system featureset has never been easier.
- A Smaller Footprint Windows:
The latest developments in XPLite now see clean installations of Windows XP in under 350MB and Windows 2000 approaching less than 200 MB (excluding paging file) with much smaller memory requirements! These sizes are obtained simply by running XPLite/2000Lite on a fresh install of windows. Enterprising developers should easily be able to strip out additional log files, INF files and unused drivers to reduce the footprint by another 50MB or so. If your goal is to run a dedicated task in as little storage as possible - then look no further than XPlite.
If your needs are for a smaller OS, then ask yourself if you really need Windows XP or Windows 2000. We can fit a Windows 9x OS into a 16MB flash chip and most solutions fit readily onto a 32MB chip. Check out Embedded Windows 9x.
- Active Development:
This first gold release is a massive boost to your ability to add and remove features from windows. We are actively developing further customization of more advanced core windows features along with some shell enhancements. These will appear in upcoming versions that will be FREE for all our licensed customers. We are not done yet!
02- XP Recovery CD Maker v1.01.05
Rescue Tools on a Boot CD for WinXP and Win2000
- Fix Windows Crashes:
XP Recovery CD has several tools to help you recover from a Windows XP or Windows 2000 crash.
- Start Windows with XP Recovery CD:
If Windows will not start, put the XP Recovery CD in the CD drive and start your computer. The XP Recovery CD has the Bart's PE version of Windows on it which will allow you to access your drives and fix problems.
- Crash Troubleshooter:
This easy-to-use troubleshooter steps you through the process of diagnosing what caused the crash and how to fix it.
- WinXP Restore Points:
This tool finds registry backups in WinXP's Restore Points and lets you choose which one to recover. Only the registry is restored from the Restore Point. Disabled in the Trial version.
- WinRescue's Crash Fixer:
WinRescue's popular Crash Fixer is duplicated in XP Recovery CD to make recovering from a crash with WinRescue Backups easy. Please note that WinRescue Backups are not included (you must already have a WinRescue backup to restore from). Disabled in the Trial version.
- Drive Explorer:
This Windows Explorer look-a-like makes it easy for you to find, copy, rename, move, and delete files and folders.
- Unzipper and Extractor:
This tool extracts files from zip files and WinRescue Backups. Disabled in the Trial version.
- The Maker:
XP Recovery CD is a plugin which is built on BartPE CD. Bart's PE CD is free and must be used with XP Recovery CD. Our setup program, XP Recovery CD Maker, will guide you through the process of downloading BartPE CD and using it to make an XP Recovery CD.
- Be Ready for the Next Windows Crash:
WinXP and Win2000 crashes are becoming more and more common. They come without warning. Be ready with XP Recovery CD.
- Runs in all Windows XP and 2000 versions:
Though specially formulated to have the maximum benefit in WinXP, it will also work in Win2000. Win2000 does not have Restore Points and so XP Recovery CD does not find Restore Points to recover in Win2000, but WinRescue 2000 backups can still be restored.
03- nLite 1.0 Beta 6
Have you ever wanted to remove some Windows components like Media Player, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, MSN Explorer, Messenger...
How about not even to install them with Windows ?
- nLite is a GUI for permanent Windows component removal by your choice. After removal there is an option to make bootable image ready for burning on cd or testing in virtual machines.
- With nLite you will be able to have Windows installation which on install doesn't include, or even contain on cd, unwanted components.
Features:
- Service Pack Integration
- Component Removal
- Unattended Setup
- Driver Integration: Textmode (CD Boot) and normal PnP.
- Hotfixes Integration: only new type 1 hotfixes (for example XP post SP2).
- Tweaks
- Patches: supports generic SFC, Uxtheme, TcpIp and Usb Polling patching.
- Bootable ISO creation
So far it supports Windows 2000, XP x86/x64 and 2003 x86 all languages. Windows Vista will be supported as well.
You need at least .NET Framework 1.1 in order to run it.
04- Windows Unattended CD Creator v0.9.7
Windows Unattended CD Creator allows creation of a boatable ISO image, Integration of service luggage, Creation of user accounts, and Integration of Drivers, Hotfixes, Patches, and Software.
You need at least .NET Framework 1.1 in order to run it.
05- Windows XP PowerPacker v1.0 RC6.2
PowerPacker will help a user create a Multiboot Windows XP disk with or without DriverPacks. It will do almost everything for you, even hex edit the files needed to be hexed, create the boot directory, boot menu, etc. It makes creating multiboot XP disks a breeze.
Latest Changes:
- Fixed issue with Extra Root Files and Extra Pack Files not keeping the settings correctly in the ini file
- Because of the settings not being saved to the ini file correctly the Extra Pack Files and Extra Root files were not being copied over to the destination
- The Tri-Pack and the Custom Name Pack checkboxes were not functioning correctly when first opening the gui
- Fixed bug with the Main Window
06- XPCREATE CD Creator
XPCREATE is a utility program that will combine an original XP distribution and assorted hotfixes and updates to produce an up-to-date XP Distibution CD. XPCREATE allows the user to define custon installations and setup programs, but it's main richness lies in the slipstreaming of most available updates and hotfixes, thus insuring the integrity of both the initial installation, and the physical CD media. Slipstreaming the latest hotfixes and updates is important in avoiding possible vulnurability attacks during the setup phase, and in avoiding the need to re-apply hotfixes after a windows component is added or removed.
When run, XPCREATE connects to an Internet server to obtain a list of hotfixes that must be downloaded for your Windows version. This list will be used to determine which files must be downloaded from the Internet, and which files are already present locally.
The main goals of XPCREATE are:
- Provide an automated procedure to produce a Windows XP Distribution that, once installed, will require zero updates, either critical or recommended, as shown on the Windows Update Site.
- Integrate the service packs, hotfixes and updates as completly as possible into the Windows XP Distribution.
- Perform the above two tasks with a minimum of user intervention or file manipulation in order to make Updated XP CD Distributions available to all XP users, regardless of level of expertise.

Creating the ultimate unattended XP CD
The Definitive how-to guide!
By: MSFN
Have you ever wanted a Windows CD that would install Windows by automatically putting in your name, product key, timezone and regional settings? And have it merged with the latest Service Pack to save time? Followed by silently installing all your favourite applications along with DirectX 9.0c, .Net Framework 1.1 and then all the required hotfixes, updated drivers, registry tweaks, and a readily patched UXTheme.dll without any user interaction whatsoever? Then this guide will show you how you can do just that!
Through the course of this guide, you will create a CD that does all the installing for you. The CD will be fully updated with the latest hotfixes, and install all your programs for you.
This guide has been broken up into three parts: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced. It has been done so, to help you understand what you're doing and not to get over your head too fast. There are pages upon pages of information on this subject, and this guide only covers the tip of the iceberg.
- The Beginner portion will cover the updating of your CD, along with automating setup itself.
- The Intermediate portion covers adding Drivers and Applications to your CD, as well as User creation and other little tidbits.
- The Advanced section is where it gets really fun. We'll customize the look and feel of your setup, as well as add hacked files to remove the limits put upon the system.

Muscle-Building Method
• Gain WeightÂâ€â€Muscle WeightÂâ€â€Pounds of It
• Triple Your Muscle-Building Progress
• Accelerate Fat Burning
• Slash Your Workouts in Half
• Discover the Ultimate Exercises
• Supercharge Every Set
• No Wasted Effort
"I watched as Jonathan and Steve began their X-Rep training experiment in late May Â’04, and I visually monitored their progress till their photo shoot July 1 Â’04. I can honestly say that their bodies changed almost from one workout to the next. Every time I saw them in the gym, they had more muscularity and vascularity. It was a drastic transformation. I'm still amazed by the progress they made in only a month."
Ââ€â€John Balik

IRON MAN Magazine
Do you want an attention-grabbing, muscle-packed physique? (Of course you do; who doesn't?) But logic tells you that to get big and ripped you have to train like the top bodybuilders, and if you've seen their programs, you probably thought, "There's no way in heck I have time for that!" Their workouts usually contain countless sets and take two to three hours a day. Forget it!
Not so fast. There's a much quicker way to pack on pounds of muscle. Science has had the answer for decades, but hardly anyone has applied that science correctlyÂâ€â€until now. Even we were guilty of not applying that science for almost 10 years of serious trainingÂâ€â€until some amazing things happened that helped us slash our time in the gym and achieve our biggest, leanest physiques ever in record time.
Discovering a Better Way to Build Muscle
We both work for IRON MAN magazine, and that means we can pick the brains of the best minds in bodybuilding. We like to test much of what we hear (if it makes sense) on ourselves, which we then report on in IM in our Train, Eat, Grow series (Steve has also written more than 10 books on weight training). But it's not just about getting bigger. To get that chiseled, granite-hard look, it's also about losing fatÂâ€â€getting as lean as possible while staying as big as possible. We're talking ripped at 5% bodyfat. So every summer we make it a point to get into shape for a photo shoot (and, of course, to look good at the beach). Unfortunately, the past three years our progress seemed to be stalledÂâ€â€we looked about the same each time we peakedÂâ€â€but then it happened. A group of articles on static, or isometric, training hit our offices from three respected authors, one of whom built 21-inch arms doing only about four sets of biceps and triceps work twice a weekÂâ€â€no steroids. He said the key to making it happen was compound exercises with a significant twistÂâ€â€holds at the right place along the range of motion.
While we were skeptical, isometric holds made some sense. The other two training researchers had similar things to say about the anabolic potential of static training, and then a scientific study was released that showed that isometric contractions have potentially the same, if not better, muscle-building effects as dynamic full-range sets in some instances. Interesting!
We had collected a few more pieces of the mass-building puzzle: Our own research showed that trainees stop a regular dynamic set due to nervous system failureÂâ€â€leaving too many muscle fibers understimulated for growth to occur. That's why most bodybuilders do so many sets. Think about it. With normal training it takes many successive sets to get at enough fibers for growthÂâ€â€and sometimes that stimulation is insignificant because the nervous system flakes out early on every effort. That's why it takes so long to build noticeable muscle for the majority. In other words, for most people it takes a lot of sets, or volume, to get past the nervous system roadblock that prevents optimal muscle stimulation. Or does it?
Could an isometric contraction at the right spot in the range of motion at the end of a regular set force more nervous system activation, tax more fibers and exponentially increase the muscle-building power of any set? Science and anecdotal evidence say yesÂâ€â€that's how the author with the 21-inch arms did itÂâ€â€however, we've taken it a step farther and discovered an even better way, with muscle-building repercussions that are staggering, from what we've seen.
The new technique is better because it includes small dynamic pulsing actions. That works so well because the nervous system needs some movement for optimal response, even if that movement is small. We call it X-Rep training, and it has the potential to make you bigger than you thought possibleÂâ€â€and with much briefer workouts because...
X-Rep Training Can Make Each Set Up to Five Times as Effective as One Conventional Set
It was discovered long ago that increasing force and tension on a progressive basis is the key to making a muscle grow. That's how the author/bodybuilder built his 21-inch arms with only a few sets each weekÂâ€â€he extended the tension of a regular set at the right point in his arm exercises' range with increasing force to trigger an awesome growth response. His reward was giant arms in six months!
If you do set after set after set, there's a lot of wasted effort, your workouts take way too long, and you burn up precious recovery energy that could be channeled into muscle-size increases. With X Reps you get the nervous system to fire a maximum number of muscle fibers at the precise position of flexion of any exercise for a quantum leap in muscle fiber activation in any one set. That can result in enormous increases in growth stimulation, not to mention strength, with very few sets. For example, the week before our '04 photo shoot, when we should've been depleted and weak, we went up 70 pounds on our calf raises in one workout, no problem! We got similar increases on other exercises, and we attribute that unusual strength surge to the X Reps we added the last month.
Full-Range Training, Partial Pulses and
Extreme Muscle Size
We've been training together for almost 10 years, and for most of that time we've used a muscle-building protocol known as Positions of Flexion. IRON MAN readers will recognize that as a mass method that calls for training a muscle at three different positions in order to work it through its full range of motion.
We got some incredible gains over the years by training each muscle through its full arc of flexion (POF helped Steve overcome his hardgainer genetics to a great degree); however, not till recently did we realize that we were stopping every set short, before full hypertrophic stimulation was taking placeÂâ€â€even when we went to absolute failure. (Remember, it's the nervous system that craps out first.) By adding X Reps to each exercise, we leap-frogged nervous system failure, forced the muscle to keep firing and got three to five times the gains with fewer than half the sets. Our workout time dropped dramatically, and we achieved a level of growth that was nothing short of astounding. To anyone who finds building muscle a difficult, almost impossible task, that's extremely exciting stuff!
Results: Bigger, Harder, Stronger Faster!
Jonathan was floored when, after only one month with X-Rep training, he weighed more than he ever had in lean condition and was significantly more ripped and bigger than ever. Steve, at 44 years old and with much less muscle-building potential (hardgainer), also made a quantum leap in size, strength and condition in only one month (take another look at the photos above that were taken about a month apart after beginning X-Rep trainingÂâ€â€even we were shocked!).
Don't get us wrong. We're not saying that you can do one set per bodypart every three weeks and end up with a body like Mr. OlympiaÂâ€â€or even reach the limits of your genetic muscle-building potentialÂâ€â€with a ludicrous program like that. (People who tell you that are either lying or delusional; look at Mr. O's quads and common sense should scream that there's no way you can get a giant, vascular, gnarly thigh like that with one set of leg extensions every few weeks, no matter how good your genetics are and no matter how intense the set. Not gonna happen. By the way, notice that there are never any photos of the so-called bodybuilders who get "spectacular results" with those extremely brief, infrequent routines.) To build an attention-grabbing, muscular physique, you have to put in some consistent effort and timeÂâ€â€but not as much as you think.
X Reps can get your body to a new level of size and muscularity faster and with less waste in the gym than ever before. Of course, you have to use the right exercises, and we'll give them to you. MRI analysis, EMG studies and training experimentation at the IRON MAN Training & Research Center have filtered out the single best exercise for each bodypart, and they're all included in the Basic Ultimate Mass Workouts. Take your pick from three program variations: You can train two days a week, three days a week or on a four-day split, with most of these high-efficiency workouts lasting around 35 minutes.
And we'll tell you exactly how, where and when to apply X Reps on every exercise to jack up the grow power of each set. These workouts are incredibly effective and can get you to a new level of size and strength in record time. (There are also more advanced workouts so you can pack on even more mass as you progress.)
We lay it all out in the the new e-book The Ultimate Mass Workout. It's your muscle-building roadmap, but it's much more than just precision training programs and X-Rep explanation and application. It's jam-packed with loads of motivating, mass-building information that'll have your physique busting the seams of your wardrobe with chiseled muscle in no time. It includes...
•The single best mass-boosting exercise for every bodypart (based in MRI, EMG and independent research studies), including start/finish photos for each, tips on precise performance and prime X-Rep position. There's also a complete beginner's step-by-step program to get you started right if you've never lifted before or are coming back to the gym after an extended layoff.
•Direct/Indirect Training: How to organize your workouts so it appears as if you train each bodypart once a week, but you really train each twice due to residual, or indirect, work. (This is an amazing time-saving, mass-building concept you have to try!)
•Ultimate Anabolic Acceleration: How to maximize growth hormone activation in the gym, which not only builds muscle but burns off layers of muscle-blurring fat. (It's one of the fastest ways to get wicked, eye-popping muscularity, and proper use of X Reps is a great way to get a GH surge.)
•The Evolution of X-Rep Training: Why it's better than isometric holds and the reason X Reps are most effective at the end of a regular set as opposed to by themselves as partials-only sets. (It has to do with the size principle of muscle fiber recruitmentÂâ€â€it's like a domino effect in which the low-threshold motor units fire first followed by the intermediates followed by the high-threshold motor unitsÂâ€â€so you develop as many fiber types as possible for maximum muscle size. Despite what some so-called experts say, fastest gains in mass depend on developing all fiber types!)
•X-Rep training fused with full-ROM Positions-of-Flexion programs: Max out total fiber growth and blow up every bodypart with the next generation of full-range, efficient POF training programs stacked with X Reps.
•50 Ultimate Mass Tactics: Everything from muscle shaping to testosterone production to warming up to exercise tweaks so you can turn your body into a lean mass machine.
•Ultimate Mass Nutrition: How to feed your muscles for maximum growth, including 15 critical tips on eating for more muscle, along with the meal-by-meal Ultimate Mass Diet.
•Our Complete X-Rep Transformation Routine: The exact program we used to make our amazing one-month metamorphosis. (We made better gains with this program than any other in our 10 years training together.)
•Full-Color Bodypart-Specific Before and After Pictures: Taken one month apart during our X-Rep experiment (including bigger arms, fuller more striated chest, larger more detailed legs).
