"Charles Harwood is an out-of-work actor, but fill-in jobs aren't for him. He doesn't want to drive a cab, deal dope, or add "another string to his bow"—he's a purist. And without any acting to do, the main event of his day is an audition for an ice-cream commercial. But first he's got to get there... It means escaping the bed of a regrettable liaison and dodging death-by-juggernaut and trial by Job Center. And that's just the morning. B ..."

Leading Irish historians examine how separate Catholic and Protestant church structures and communities were created both nationally and locally. They analyze the ways in which the rival institutions influenced perceptions of religious difference, ..."
"Exploring 25 unique design solutions by Denver-based firm Hutton Ford, this book is a visual celebration and analysis of the role of entrances in architecture. Entrances serve many purposes. From defining the character of the architecture to the more practical aspects of the transition from outside to inside, they momentarily protect us from inclement weather as we launch between exterior and interior, like an environmental buffer to m ..."

"Charles Harwood is an out-of-work actor, but fill-in jobs aren't for him. He doesn't want to drive a minicab, deal dope or have 'another string to his bow' - he's a purist. And without any acting to do, the main event of his day is an audition for an ice-cream commercial.The next job, and getting through the day on the few quid in his pocket, are Charlie's main preoccupations. In one day, he wends his way through a traffic jam in his di ..."
"This book brings together leading Irish historians who examine how the history of the Church of Ireland has been written in the 500 years since the Reformation. It traces the emergence of a distinctly Protestant narrative, shaped by the belief that the Church of Ireland was the true descendant of St Patrick, and shows how this endured down to the twentieth century, before being challenged by the development of a more secular and profess ..."

"Following on from their best-selling Riding the Wall of Death (reprinted five times), Wall of Death rider and owner Alan Ford and author Nick Corble tell the story in words and pictures of the Wall of Death and the famous Indian motorcycles used almost exclusively for the popular, but now rare, fairground attraction. Indians were used because of their left-handed throttle control and low centre of gravity, making them ideal for this ris ..."

"Üblicherweise wirkt es immer ein bisschen unfair, wenn man eine Rezension damit beginnt, auf die Ehefrau des Regisseurs zu verweisen. Andererseits ist die fragliche Dame üblicherweise auch nicht Madonna; eine Frau, deren Fähigkeiten, sich schon vor dem Frühstück einige Male neu zu erfinden, im krassen Gegensatz zu denen ihres Ehemanns Guy Ritchie zu stehen scheinen. Der Nachfolger zu Ritchies Durchbruch Bube, Dame, König, grAs, einem en ..."

"Usually it might seem a tad unfair to begin a review by referring to the director's missis. But then the missis in question wouldn't usually be Madonna--a woman whose ability to reinvent herself several times before breakfast seems in marked contrast to that of hubby Guy Ritchie. Certainly, this follow-up to the filmmaker's breakthrough film--the high-energy, expletive-strewn cockney-gangster movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels--h ..."
