Extrait : Mary Louise Streep, plus connue sous le pseudonyme de Meryl Streep, est une actrice américaine née le 22 juin 1949 à Summit dans le New Jersey. Elle a été maintes fois reconnue par ses pairs : avec ses seize nominations aux Oscars, elle a battu un record longtemps détenu par Katharine Hepburn. Elle a interprété de nombreux rôles, notamment dans Kramer contre Kramer en 1979, où elle est l'ex-épouse de Dustin Hoffman, en conflit avec ce dernier pour la garde de leur fils (prestation pour laquelle elle obtient l'Oscar du meilleur second rôle en 1980). Ses autres compositions mémorables incluent Out of Africa, où elle joue l'écrivaine Karen Blixen aux côtés de Robert Redford ou encore Le Choix de Sophie (d'après le roman éponyme de William Styron) où elle incarne une femme instable, meurtrie, et brisée par l'expérience des camps de la mort durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, performance qui lui vaut cette fois l'Oscar de la meilleure actrice en 1983. Pour Un cri dans la nuit, elle est primée à Cannes en 1989. Elle incarne également une femme au foyer désemparée par la passion qu'elle porte à un photographe solitaire dans Sur la route de Madison de et avec Clint Eastwood, ainsi que dans The Hours aux côtés de Nicole Kidman et Julianne Moore. Plus récemment, elle s'est essayée à la comédie avec Adaptation et Le diable s'ha...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Forrest Gump is a 1994 American comedy-drama film based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Winston Groom. The film, directed by Robert Zemeckis, stars Tom Hanks, Robin Wright Penn, Sally Field and Gary Sinise. The story is of Forrest Gump, a simple man hailing from Alabama, and his journey through life meeting historical figures, influencing popular culture, and experiencing firsthand historic events of the late 20th century. The film differs substantially from Winston Groom's novel on which it was based. Filming took place in late 1993, mainly in Georgia and North and South Carolina. Extensive visual effects were used to incorporate the protagonist into archived footage as well as for developing other scenes. An extensive soundtrack was featured in the film, and its commercial release made it one of the top selling albums of all time. Released in the United States on July 6, 1994, Forrest Gump was well received by critics and became a commercial success as the top grossing film in North America released that year. The film ended up earning over $677 million worldwide during its theatrical run. ... Read more

Fantastic book
The positive reviews on this book say it all - it's a great book if you're looking into training for a triathlon.Wonderful.

All you need to know to "complete a triathlon!"
For both the novice and the experienced, this book offers triathletes all they need to know to finish the race ahead of the pack. There's detailed information on how to rate yourself physically in swimming, bicycling, and running and refine your skills at each; how to improve fitness for peak performance; develop a training program; keep a training log; cope with hazards and avoid injury; select the right apparel and equipment; eat properly in training and during the race; and condition the "mental muscle" as well as your heart--There is a great section on training using your heart rate monitor that is particularly informing for those just getting started with a heart rate monitor--all in all, I thought it was very complete, precise and to the point--Lots of good tips and helpful information for the Newbie and more experienced.I keep it handy for referencing and recommend it to those who are new to the sport or looking for ways to improve.

Great reference and motivation inside
I became hooked on this book when I did my first Triathlon last autumn.I felt it gave me the information I needed and the upbeat way it was presented just added to my excitement.I can tell that the author is completely in love with triathlon and wants to see others have the same kind of fun she does.I keep this book handy and have referred to it several times this spring as I train for the three tri's I plan to do this summer.The book is my main triathlon reference and I very much recommend it.

Overview of the basics to get you into Triathlons!
As a newby to the sport it was nice to read a book that gave me an overview of what I could expect.I had only done 2 races when I read this book and it really helped me understand what I was doing right and wrong.If you want an overview of the sport and are planning to do your first race this is a MUST BUY!!

Sally does a great job of explaining all the ins/outs of the sport and provides a good base of knowledge.She provides resources to more information on specific subjects which is helpful.

Dissapointed
I was fooled when I read the back cover and Scott Tinley's recommendation.The book is total fluff.Ms. Edwards tries so hard to cover everything, she ends up covering nothing in any worthwhile detail.I spent less money on the Triathlete's Training Bible by Joe Freil and it was worth so much more.For beginner triathletes, there are much better books. (Swim/Bike/Run by Wes Hobson and even Triathlon 101)For current triathletes looking to improve, stick with Joe Freil's Bible. ... Read more
