Chris Rock presents this documentary offering an insight into the
fiercely competitive world of Afro-American hairdressing. The film
includes a visit to the Bronner Brothers International Hair Show,
the annual trade show for the African-American hair care industry.
It also looks into the dangers of many common hair-straightening
treatments, reveals the alarmingly high cost of regular hair
'relaxing' and weaves, and asks what the ongoing pursuit of
straight hair says about African-American cultural identity.
This book provides a straightforward manual and review handbook for
accessing and using the resources of the Internet in the day to day
labours of the working scientist. It addresses the problem of how
to cope with an army who have discovered a whole new toy shop full
of goodies.

Appalachia: The place and its people have long inspired a special
fascination among travelers and commentators. The rugged,
ecologically rich mountains, at once forbidding and inviting, have
provided a place of retreat and exploration for lovers of natural
beauty and outdoor adventure, while the region’s resources have
long lured both capitalists intent on creating wealth and regular
folks just looking for a steady wage. The inhabitants native to the
region have often been held up as pure, strong, and self-sufficient
on the one hand, and derided as primitive, backward, and exotic, on
the other.Not quite south or north, east or west, the region
continues to defy easy classification. Yet it emerges
in Historic Photos of Appalachia as both distinct and
as familiarly American. The nearly 200 photographs included here
portray the region’s land and people in all their distinctive and
sometimes surprising specificity—including views of towns,
houses, and farms; families at home and on the job; railroads,
mining, and logging; and beautiful streams and mountain landscapes.
At the end of Luke's Gospel two disciples, walking towards the
village of Emmaus, met a figure whom they did not immediately
recognise. This man explained to them how the whole Old Testament
spoke of Jesus. When he left them they asked one another, "Were not
our hearts burning within us while he talked?" They had been in the
presence of the Risen Lord. Kevin O'Donnell explains how each of
the Old Testament books speaks of Jesus. If you, like the disciples
on the Emmaus road, are going through a time in the wilderness,
then to see how the pattern of world history is woven together is a
comfort and strength.

In his forty-three years as a practising lawyer, Kevin O'Donnell
encountered a wide and sometimes weird mixture of characters
lawyers, clients, police officers, and others. When it came time to
tell the story of his career, he knew that he didn't want to write
a book only about the law; he wanted to write a book about the
people with whom and for whom he worked.
Some of these stories may come off as improbable or even
impossible, but they're all true. He shares tales of the more
notable people he had the privilege of dealing with and the unusual
situations those associations created. He received the occasional
threat of violence, but fortunately, none of them came to pass. He
also survived the aggression of his peers, in and out of court.
During his experience as a law student, articled clerk, employee
lawyer, senior associate for substantial law fi rms, and partner in
a fi rm in regional Victoria, he saw it all- and some of the best
anecdotes from those years await within.
Many of the people he writes about are still his friends (and
some never were), while some of them are now deceased. They've all
provided him with amusement over the years, as well as wry smiles
as he brought their shared adventures to life in his memoir.
This is the story of Basia Fuller, living proof that age is just a
number. She was born a refugee who went from a hut to a penthouse
and along the way broke through the glass ceiling in business and
through outdated taboos in her personal life. She's walked the red
carpet and dined with royalty. She's made fortunes and traveled the
world. She's also been bankrupt, shot at and kidnapped. In the end,
she's ended up on top; and through it all, she's had a ball.
