S Is For Suplex

Explore the world of wrestling through the alphabet. Wrestle your way through letters A-Z, where you will meet Announcers, Babyfaces, Champions, Jump to high heights and root for the Underdogs.

What is life like as a donut? What is P22067? And dare you play a game of Roulette? Enter the darkened room of Filmic Cuts once more, as Oli Jacobs brings you Filmic Cuts 5: Suplex Sounds of the 70s. A book filled with tales glazed in greasy kebab meat, sparkling pastry sugar, and lashing of root beer from the Old West. That made you hungry? Well then, let's hope you have a strong stomach... From the mind that conjured up the madness that was Bad Sandwich, and the drunken adventures of Strange Days in High Wycombe, comes more tales of horror, comedy, and so much more. Listen to a ghost story, find out what links mobile phones & bananas, and discover who exactly Francis Penterland might be. Open up, and let the yarns wrap you nice and tight...

Banach algebras is a multilayered area in mathematics with many ramifications. With a diverse coverage of different schools working on the subject, this proceedings volume reflects recent achievements in areas such as Banach algebras over groups, abstract harmonic analysis, group actions, amenability, topological homology, Arens irregularity, C*-algebras and dynamical systems, operator theory, operator spaces, and locally compact quantum groups.

This proceedings volume originates from a conference held in Herrnhut in June 2013. It provides unique insights into the power of abstract methods and techniques in dealing successfully with numerous applications stemming from classical analysis and mathematical physics. The book features diverse topics in the area of operator semigroups, including partial differential equations, martingale and Hilbert transforms, Banach and von Neumann algebras, Schrödinger operators, maximal regularity and Fourier multipliers, interpolation, operator-theoretical problems (concerning generation, perturbation and dilation, for example), and various qualitative and quantitative Tauberian theorems with a focus on transfinite induction and magics of Cantor. The last fifteen years have seen the dawn of a new era for semigroup theory with the emphasis on applications of abstract results, often unexpected and far removed from traditional ones. The aim of the conference was to bring together prominent experts in the field of modern semigroup theory, harmonic analysis, complex analysis and mathematical physics, and to present the lively interactions between all of those areas and beyond. In addition, the meeting honored the sixtieth anniversary of Prof C. J. K. Batty, whose scientific achievements are an impressive illustration of the conference goal. These proceedings present contributions by prominent scientists at this international conference, which became a landmark event. They will be a valuable and inspiring source of information for graduate students and established researchers.

This second volume of a two-volume overview focuses on the applications of Banach spaces and recent developments in the field.

From William Muldoon to Brock Lesnar, this history covers those who have divided themselves as tough guys on the professional wrestling circuit and legitimate confrontations. From catch wrestling master Billy Robinson to the Japanese professional wrestler who gave birth to the global phenomenon that is modern mixed martial arts (MMA), this investigation travels from the shadowy carnival tent and the dingy training hall to the bright lights of the squared circle and the Las Vegas glitz of the octagon. Billy Riley's legendary Wigan Snake Pit and the rigorous UWF Dojo in Tokyo are explored, revealing the secret history of both professional wrestling and the rising sport of MMA. Squared circle icons Strangler Lewis and Lou Thesz and Olympic heroes Danny Hodge and Kurt Angle are also featured.
