Harley decides to build a time machine to prove the discovery and
win the 'best invention' competition. But messing around with time
can have unexpected, dinosaur-size effects... Vashti Hardy's
immersive world building, cool science and tech, weird and
wonderful inventions, warm and funny characters - all perfectly

Three classic films starring comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver
Hardy. In 'The Dancing Masters' (1943), Stan (Laurel) and Ollie
(Hardy) are owners of a dance school, but are evicted for
non-payment of rent. To raise money, Ollie tries an insurance scam
which involves inflicting injuries on Stan, but the inept pair soon
find themselves mixed up with local gangsters. Watch out for
appearances by long-running Marx Brothers' foil Margaret Dumont and
a youthful Robert Mitchum. In 'A-haunting We Will Go' (1942),
Laurel and Hardy unknowingly offer to help a bunch of crooks
smuggle a wanted man past the police in a coffin. Unfortunately,
the casket gets mixed up with one used by a stage musician, leading
to a comic chase. Finally, in 'The Bullfighters' (1945), Stan and
Ollie are two detectives looking for a female criminal in Mexico.
Stan gets mistaken for a famous matador and is forced to show his
prowess in the bullring.

How has a Christian movement, founded at the turn of the twentieth
century by the son of freed slaves, become the fastest-growing
religion on Earth? Neo-Charismatic Pentecostalism has some 600
million followers worldwide, and by 2050 their numbers will grow to
1 billion: that's one in ten people. This is the religion of the
Holy Spirit, with believers gaining direct experience of God and
all that comes with it: success for the mind, body, spirit and
wallet. But Pentecostalism is also a cultural movement. It speaks
to the most impoverished people in Africa and Latin America, and
inspires anti-establishment leaders from Europe to Australia, South
Korea to Brazil. It throws itself into culture wars and online
activism, offering meaning and community to rootless Westerners
adrift in a fragmenting world. Beyond Belief is the first
journalistic investigation into this revolution exploding across
the globe. Visiting twelve countries and eight American states,
Elle Hardy exposes a timeless tale of miracles, money and power,
set in our volatile age of extremes. She exposes the Pentecostalist
agenda: not just saving souls, but transforming societies. These
modern prophets, quietly embedded in our institutions, have the
cash and the influence to do it. 'A fantastic read. Hardy gets
right into the nucleus of the Pentecostal movement with empathy and
a sharp journalistic eye. An incredibly important book.' - Erica
Buist, author of This Party's Dead: Grief, Joy and Spilled Rum at
the World's Death Festivals 'An arresting, page-turning narrative,
worthy of the pageantry, vivacity and charm of Pentecostalism.
Ambitious in its coverage and earnest in its exploration, Beyond
Belief is a truly compelling account of the world's foremost
Christian renewal movement.' - Ebenezer Obadare, author of
Pentecostal Republic 'Informative, engaging, and unsettling, Beyond
Belief is an in-depth exploration of global Pentecostalism in
lively, accessible prose.' - Chrissy Stroop, journalist,
commentator and senior researcher on the Postsecular Conflicts
Project

Thirty years of Butterflies in traditional Lancashire and Cheshire.
A regional butterfly atlas with a difference: taking three ten-year
periods (last decade of the 20th century and the first two decades
of the 21st), this book documents the changes in distribution and
abundance of all the butterfly species which occur of have occurred
within vice-counties 58, 59, 60 and the furness portion of 69,
which equate to the true historic or traditional English counties
of Cheshire and Lancashire a " a a no legislation has ever changed
the boundaries of Britaina s traditional countiesa a From a base in
the MerseyValley, close to the border between the counties, the
author explores the length and breadth of both of them, noting how
the butterflies have been affected by human activities as well as
by the forces of Nature, and also takes a closer look at the
1974-created administrative areas of Merseyside and Greater
Manchester, and their central cities of Liverpool and Manchester.
There is also a section of flowers which butterflies use for their
nutrition within the two counties.
