A cook. A speech therapist. A credit union executive. A fashion model-turned-cancer activist. A secretary. A homemaker -- all were mothers. Nineteen lives cut short -- women from all walks of life, hailing from every corner of the United States and a province in Canada. Some were homemakers with little or no formal education; others were career women with college degrees and accomplished resumes. Regardless of their backgrounds, all these women share one thing in common: an addiction to smoking that culminated in an array of illnesses and their untimely demise. Their stories, told by their surviving daughters, pay tribute to the mothers they lost, often at pivotal moments in the daughters' lives, and the legacy they continue to live with every day. A Breath Away offers a powerful anti-smoking message that goes beyond the statistics to today's generation of girls and young women, to think twice before lighting up.

Squash is a popular racquet sport, which is played in an indoor court. This sport has evolved in isolation from its counterparts, which share some inherent similarities to sports like racquetball. The primary objective of this sport, both in the singles and the doubles form of the game, is to strike the ball, with a racquet, off the walled court. The shot must be played in such a way that the ball bounces off the floor exactly twice before it reaches the other player for a shot." Above you read the first sentences of Squash For Beginners.
