Julie Andrews is, quite simply, a phenomenon. She has probably brought more joy to more people than any other star of her generation'' - Richard Attenborough. Julie Andrews is the last of the great Hollywood musical stars - her extraordinary career spans more than forty years. Her first film, Mary Poppins, was Disney''s most successful film, and in 1965 The Sound of Music rescued Twentieth Century Fox from bankruptcy. Three years later, Star! almost put the studio back under, and the leading lady of both films fell as spectacularly as she had risen.But Julie Andrews is nothing if not a survivor; and despite many setbacks - including the tragedy of losing her singing voice in 1997 after a botched operation - she''s still a performer, recently starring in Shrek and The Princess Diaries. Richard Stirling''s deeply researched biography - based on many years of contact with Julie - is a frank but affectionate portrait of an enduring icon of stage and screen.

The heroine of MARY POPPINS and THE SOUND OF MUSIC tells her life story from the music halls of London to Broadway stardom.Over the years Julie Andrews has been much interviewed in the press and on television, but she has never before revealed the true story of her childhood and upbringing. In HOME she vividly recreates the years before the movies. An idyllic early childhood in Surrey was cut short when her parents divorced and her mother remarried. The family moved to London, and there are vivid scenes of life during the Blitz. Her mother went into musical theatre with her stepfather, who encouraged Julie to have singing lessons which led to the discovery that her voice had phenomenal range and strength for someone her age. Before long she was appearing on stage with her parents. She soon realised how much she enjoyed looking out into the black auditorium with the spotlights on her. By the time she was a teenager, she was supporting her whole family with her singing.A London Palladium pantomime led to a leading role in THE BOYFRIEND on Broadway at 19. Parts in MY FAIR LADY opposite Rex Harrison and CAMELOT with Richard Burton soon followed, and there are wonderful anecdotes about the actors and actresses of her day. But this is far more than a collection of show stories (it''s not until the last page of the book that Julie gets the call from Disney for MARY POPPINS), HOME is an honest, touching and revealing memoir of the early life of a true icon.

, Aristocrat, gambler, innovator and special forces legend, the life of David Stirling should need no retelling. His formation of the Special Air Service in the summer of 1941 led to a new form of warfare and Stirling is remembered as the father of special forces soldiering. But was he really a military genius or in fact a shameless self-publicist who manipulated people, and the truth, for this own ends? In this gripping and controversial biography Gavin Mortimer analyses Stirling's complex character: the childhood speech impediment that shaped his formative years, the pressure from his overbearing mother, his fraught relationship with his brother, Bill, and the jealousy and inferiority he felt in the presence of his SAS second-in-command, the cold-blooded killer Paddy Mayne. Stirling lived until old age, receiving a knighthood and plaudits from military forces around the world before his death in 1990. Yet as Mortimer dazzlingly shows, while Stirling was instrumental in selling the SAS to Churchill and senior officers, it was Mayne who really carried the regiment in the early days. Stirling was at best an incompetent soldier and at worst a foolhardy one, who jeopardised his men's live with careless talk and hare-brained missions. Drawing on interviews with SAS veterans who fought with Stirling and men who worked with him on his post-war projects, and examining recently declassified governments files about Stirling's involvement in Aden, Libya and GB75, Mortimer's riveting biography is incisive, bold, honest and written with his customary narrative panache. Impeccably researched and with the courage to challenge the mythical SAS 'brand', Mortimer brings to bear his unparalleled expertise as WW2's premier special forces historian to dig beneath the legend and reveal the real David Stirling, a man who dared and deceived.,

From heart-stopping accounts of apparitions, poltergeists and related supernatural phenomena, to first-hand encounters with phantoms and spirits, this collection of stories contains both new and well-known spooky tales from around Stirling. A whole chapter is dedicated to the mysterious goings-on at Stirling Castle, where cleaners in the King''s Old Building claimed to have heard footsteps coming from the third floor — which hasn''t existed since a fire in the nineteenth-century; while a 1930s photograph purports to capture the shadow of a phantom guardsman — possibly the same ''Highland Soldier'' often reportedly mistaken by tourists for a castle guide.The town itself has no shortage of fascinating tales, including the story of the Old Town''s most famous phantom, seventeenth-century merchant John ''Auld Staney Breeks'' Cowane, whose spirit is said to inhabit his statue each Hogmanay. A playful ghost supposedly throws pots and pans around the kitchens of the Darnley Coffee House, while frequent power failures and mishaps in the Tolbooth Theatre — originally the eighteenth-century Burgh jail — are blamed upon the malicious spirit of the last man hanged, Alan Mair. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, Haunted Stirling is guaranteed to intrigue and chill both believers and sceptics alike.

Jasmine A. Stirling, author of A Most Clever Girl: How Jane Austen Discovered Her Voice, delivers a powerful, poetic picture book biography about suffragist Carrie Chapman Catt, perfect for fans of I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Makes Her Mark and the Rebel Girls series. As a child, Carrie Chapman Catt asked a lot of questions: How many stars are in the sky? Do germs have personalities? And why can’t Mama vote? Catt’s curiosity led her to college, to a career in journalism, and finally to becoming the president of The National American Woman Suffrage Association. Catt knew the movement needed a change—and she set to work mobilizing women (and men) across the nation to dare to question a woman’s right to vote. On August 18, 1920, Catt pinned a yellow rose to her dress and waited while lawmakers in Tennessee cast their deciding votes to ratify the 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America. After a seventy-year campaign, had women finally won the right to vote? Stirling's suspenseful retelling of the dramatic final "yea" that changed the history of women’s rights brings the past to life for young readers.

'I beg as soon as you get Fielding's Joseph Andrews, I fear in Ridicule of your Pamela and of Virtue in the Notion of Don Quixote's Manner, you would send it to me by the very first Coach.' (George Cheyne in a letter to Samuel Richardson, February 1742) Both Joseph Andrews (1742) and Shamela (1741) were prompted by the success of Richardson's Pamela (1740), of which Shamela is a splendidly bawdy parody. But in Shamela Fielding also demonstrates his concern for the corruption of contemporary society, politics, religion, morality, and taste. The same themes - together with a presentation of love as charity, as friendship, and in its sexual taste - are present in Joseph Andrews, Fielding'sfirst novel.It is a work of considerable literary sophistication and satirical verve, but its appeal lies also in its spirit of comic affirmation, epitomized in the celebrated character of Parson Adams. This revised and expanded edition follows the text of Joseph Andrews established by Martin C. Battestin for the definitive Wesleyan Edition of Fielding's works.The text of Shamela is based on the first edition, and two substantial appendices reprint the preliminary matter from Conyers Middleton's Life of Cicero and the second edition of Richardson's Pamela (both closely parodied in Shamela). A new introduction by Thomas Keymer situates Fielding'sworks in their critical and historical contexts. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Alastair Gordon (b.1978, Edinburgh), is an artist based in London. This, the first major monograph of the artist’s career, includes over 160 paintings, drawings, and documentational photographs, along with notes by Gordon himself. The book introduces this accomplished and engaging new voice in British painting.Gordon’s paintings bring the historic languages of genre painting and the quodlibet into a contemporary discourse that pushes the boundaries of realism, figuration, and illusionism to focus on everyday moments. His work often elevates seemingly ordinary objects––feathers, matchsticks, postcards––allowing them to speak to wider concerns of beauty, truth, life, and death.The documented works, produced between 2012 and 2023, include paintings made in oil or acrylic on MDF, wood, ‘found’ wood, gesso panel, paper, canvas, and occasionally linen. Each is distinctive for its style and for the recurring motifs Gordon selects such as masking tape, paper ephemera, and repeated, subtly different studies of the same subject. Gordon’s texts describe how objects found mud larking on the banks of the River Thames, shoes from the London City Mission, and rags and papers discarded from art students’ studios have been depicted in paintings, incorporating the histories and stories of each item (and each person) into his work. The book also features recent works influenced by rural landscapes and parkland.An introduction by Julia Lucero, Associate Director of Nahmad Projects, London, emphasizes the importance of nature and of meditation within Gordon’s practice. Specifically, Lucero brings out the idea of the "axis mundi, that metaphysical and mystical connecting point where heaven meets Earth". She explores the significance of quodlibet, a seventeenth-century trompe-l’oeil painting technique that Gordon favors, rendering brushstrokes invisible and affording everyday objects new significance, even "profound value". Humble objects such as a matchstick or paper airplane might be elevated to the realms of the divine.An essay by Jorella Andrews, Professor of Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, University of London, describes the influence of Gordon’s time on a research residency in the former studio of Paul Cézanne at Les Lauves on the outskirts of Aix-en-Provence. His experiences there proved pivotal to the direction of his practice, in which both the "visual misdirection" of quodlibet and the qualities of wood have become central. Andrews brings art historical texts and works of art into relation with Gordon’s paintings, making comparisons between subject, form, and approach. Andrews’ text further details the recent synthesis of two sides of Gordon’s work: precise illusionism combined with looser observations made in the natural landscape.Edited by Alastair Gordon Studio, designed by Herman Lelie, printed by EBS Verona and published in 2023 by Anomie Publishing, London, the publication has been generously supported by Howard and Roberta Ahmanson through Fieldstead and Company.

Diody na stranách podle zvolené zátěže efektně svítí - zeleně, oranžově, nebo červeně. Měnit nastavení můžete pomocí přiloženého dálkového ovládání v podobě hodinek, které snadno připnete na ruku, nebo přímo na panelu s dotykovým LCD displejem. Ten přehledně zobrazuje aktuální rychlost, zvolený program, množství spálených kalorií a čas cvičení. Díky mírně prohnutému tvaru plošiny je cvičení komfortnější a zároveň stabilnější, především při širším rozkročení nebo při sedu. Pokud jsou navíc zapnuty všechny módy vibrací dohromady, při poloze tzv. surfaře pak takto tvarovaná deska krásně simuluje právě surfařskou jízdu na vlnách. I přes menší rozměry, které umožňují snadné skladování, působí vibrační plošina robustním dojmem. To dokládá i vysoká nosnost 120 kg. Protiskluzové gumové nožky v kombinaci s hmotností stroje 18 kg a přiloženou gumovou podložkou zajišťují, že se během cvičení plošina ani nehne a je velmi bezpečná. Protiskluzová je i samotná cvičební plocha. Vibrační plošina inSPORTline Julisa se hodí do každé domácnosti. Svaly s ní výborně posílíte i uvolníte. Typy vibrací: oscilační vibrace - vertikální kývání (amplituda 1 - 2 mm, frekvence 25 - 40 Hz) 3D vibrace - několik směrů vibrací, deska se nijak nehoupe, ale celá vibruje (amplituda 0 - 12 mm, frekvence 6 - 12 Hz) horizontální vibrace - pohyb ze strany na stranu (amplituda 0,5 - 4 mm, frekvence 7 - 11,5 Hz) kombinace oscilace a 3D vibrace kombinace oscilace a horizontální vibrace kombinace 3D vibrace a horizontální vibrace kombinace všech druhů vibrací Tichý a efektivní Pocítíte, jak trénink dokonale zapadne do rytmu vašeho dne.

Audiokniha: Maminka nebyla začarovaná vždycky. Dřív bývala nejbáječnější maminkou na světě… Je to průšvih a nespravedlnost. Těmhle slovům desetiletá školačka Julie rozumí, zato ji pořád děsí, proč se její maminka-alkoholička po rodinném rozvratu odmítla stýkat s ní i s její sestřičkou. Z Prahy se tehdy obě dívky přestěhovaly do vesnice Horní Zhoř, kde se sžívají nejen s tátovou novou partnerkou a jejími syny, ale od základu budují i vztahy v malotřídce, tolik nepodobné velkoměstským poměrům. Julie už leccos kolem sebe chápe, nicméně smyslu pojmů exekuce, sex, handicap nebo sebezápor ještě musí přijít na kloub. Nemluvě o situacích, kdy ji dospělí k něčemu přísnými slovy nabádají, a přitom se sami chovají přesně naopak. Je to strašně začarované, a přece se v odzbrojujícím vnitřním monologu holčičí hrdinky najde místo i pro legraci a nezměrnou touhu po harmonii. Julie nehodlá být posledňák čili lúzr, protože už od života dostala druhou šanci a cennou radu: utíkej štěstí nejmíň půl cesty naproti! Nové vydání úspěšné knihy pro děti, za kterou vyhledávaná česká prozaička obdržela Zlatou stuhu 2014, je rozšířeno o další dívčiny příhody.

Jsme uvězněni v kruhu takzvaných "svatých válek". Dave Andrews ovšem ve své knize tvrdí, že je možné se této endemické srážce odlišných společností vyhnout. Náboženství má potenciál stát se prostředkem překonání stupňujícího se konfliktu, pochopíme-li jediné: Jádrem každého skutečného náboženství je otevřená a soucitná spiritualita. V jejím duchu si pak můžeme znovu činit nárok na slovo "džihád": odebrat ho extremistům, kteří si ho přivlastnili a zároveň se mu zpronevěřili, a vtisknout mu (podle skutečně koránských termínů) nový význam - posvátného nenásilného boje za spravedlnost. Začněme přemýšlet o Ježíšovi jako o silné a současně jemné mesiášské postavě, která může křesťany a muslimy spojovat. Ježíšův džihád je kniha o usmíření a jednání, návod pro všechny křesťany a muslimy, kteří se chtějí přidat k Ježíšově džihádu - bok po boku nenásilně bojovat za spravedlnost a mír.

Ernest "Andy" Andrews začal výcvik kulometníka v červenci 1943 v alabamském Fort McClellanu. Začátkem roku 1944 připlul do Velké Británie k dalšímu výcviku před Dnem D. Jeho rota, součást 1. pěší divize, odplula z Anglie 5. června na USS Henrico. Kvůli problémům s výsadkovým člunem se Andy dostal na pláž Omaha až brzy večer 6. června, ale přesto z toho měl hrůzné zážitky. Při bojích v Normandii škrábla Andyho střela, a když se mu rána zanítila, evakuovali ho koncem července do Anglie. Poté se vrátil, aby se zúčastnil průlomu z Normandie. Po rychlém průniku Francií se koncem srpna podílel na drtivé porážce řady ustupujících německých jednotek blízko Monsu v Belgii a jeho jednotka v polovině září dorazila k Cáchám. Andyho družstvo měsíc bránilo pozici v bunkru na Siegfriedově linii proti opakovaným německým útokům a po kapitulaci Cách si probojovávalo cestu Hürtgenským lesem, aby obsadilo Kótu 232. 19. listopadu brzy ráno se Andy zúčastnil své nejtěžší bitvy za války, když se Němci pokusili znovu získat Kótu 232. Andy utrpěl zranění ramene. Po operaci a měsíční rekonvalescenci se znovu vrátil k rotě H, aby bojoval v Bitvě v Ardenách. Jeho jednotka se pak podílela na rychlém tažení od řeky Rour k Rýnu a potom se tato bitva rozšířila na předmostí u Remagenu. Při průlomu z předmostí narazilo jeho družstvo na německou tankovou jednotku a Andy jen těsně unikl smrti. Po rychlém postupu do oblasti Paderbornu se jeho jednotka hnala do německého pohoří Harz, kde se wehrmacht pokoušel zorganizovat poslední odpor. Andyho jednotka ukončila boje v Čechách, kde byl začátkem května svědkem německé kapitulace. Po okupační službě se Andy v říjnu 1945 vrátil do Států. Válka formovala v mnoha směrech jeho poválečný život a v roce 1994 byl na své první návštěvě ze tří na evropských bojištích, kde bojoval.

Take a step through the looking-glass to a strange land, one where Piers Morgan is a voice worth listening to about race, where white people buy self-help books to help them cope with their whiteness, where Boris Johnson and Donald Trump are seen by the majority of the population as 'the right (white) man for the job'. Perhaps you know it. All the inhabitants seem to be afflicted by serious delusions, for example that racism doesn't exist and if it does it can be cured with a one-hour inclusion seminar, and bizarre collective hallucinations, like the widely held idea that Britain's only role in slavery was to abolish it. But there is a serious side too. Society cannot face up to the racism at its heart and in its history, so the delusions, irrationalities and hallucinations it conjures up to avoid doing so can only best be described as a psychosis, with the costs being borne by the sons and daughters of that racist history. Living in a racist world is like living in a world that bears no resemblance to reality. Black and brown people suffer from a greater number of mental health difficulties too, caused in no small part by trying to survive a racist society. Kehinde Andrews is your piercing, wry and not a little funny guide back to sanity, unpicking the absurd and outrageous lies society tells to keep up the status quo. The Psychosis of Whiteness is your lifeboat out of this topsy-turvy world.
