A Tragedy Waiting to Happen is the harrowing story of his doomed attempts and the awful consequences of that failure: a triple murder. Tony Muggivan is a farmer.

He turned up at Tony Muggivan's door, dirty, dishevelled and starving. The Muggivans took him in. Tony had never seen Brendan before. The next day, Tony began a search for help.

Superfoods are a concentrated, potent source of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, fiber, and the essential amino acids. These foods add alkalinity to our systems, balance us, increase our energy, improve stamina, sharpen mental activity, and deodorize and cleanse the cells and colon. Alfalfa, barley grass, wheat grass, lecithin, spirulina, royal jelly, chlorella, and non-dairy probiotic cultures are all packed with nutrients that strengthen our immune system and neutralize toxins. Superfoods are a return to the basics of the food chain; generally they are organically grown in a chemical-free environment and spray-dried rather than heat dried to preserve vital enzyme activity. These concentrated, nutrient-rich food powders are mixed with water or juice and consumed in liquid form.
We all try to eat a variety of nutritious foods, including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, but in today's fast-paced society, it's not always possible. Fortunately, the health-giving constituents of these foods -- vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and fiber -- are available to you in easy-to-use, time-saving form. This makes it easier to protect yourself against health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, senile dementia, and fatigue. To promote good health and maintain well-being, put Green Power to work for you. Book jacket.
Eva Nine was raised by the robot Muthr. But when a marauder destroys the underground sanctuary she called home, twelve-year-old Eva is forced to flee aboveground. Eva Nine is searching for anyone else like her. She knows that other humans exist because of a very special item she treasures ~ a scrap of cardboard on which is depicted a young girl, an adult, and a robot along with the strange word "WondLa". Tony DiTerlizzi honours traditional children's literature in this totally original space age adventure: one that is as complex as an alien planet, but as simple as a child's wish for a place to belong.
1966. Recently married, Nick and Rosemary Storey overhear two foreign exchange traders boasting that they can get secret information from Civil Servants about a possible devaluation of the Pound. A squash club/wine bar in the City is supposedly where this information is passed on. But when the two men are found dead in the squash club, leaving a suicide note, Nick and Rosemary smell a rat, especially when it becomes clear that they entered the locked club and killed themselves without leaving any keys. Assuming that the deaths were linked to the men's boasting, they pursue various leads without getting very far until a chance conversation allows them to arrange for several suspects to be kept under surveillance. But unmasking them still involves Nick in skating on some very thin ice. "A Well-Respected Man" is the latest in a series of books set mostly in Customs & Excise by Richard Hernaman Allen, a former Commissioner.
Modified citrus pectin (MCP) is an amazing substance backed by impressive research. In this book, you'll learn that in addition to having the same beneficial effects as pectin, from which it is derived, MCP also has the extraordinary added benefit of protecting against cancer, cancer progression, and heart disease. Of all diseases, MCP has been studied most extensively for prostate cancer, one of the most common cancers in men. MCP has been shown to slow PSA doubling time, to stop the spread of prostate cancer, and to kill prostate cancer cells. Moreover, you'll learn how it may lower cholesterol, reduce atherosclerosis, remove heavy metals and environmental toxins from the body, and prevent and reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.

Published in 1992, this was the first book to assess the impact of television broadcasting on the House of Commons and its Member’s behaviour. It looks at the implications for political journalism as well as broader questions concerning the role of media in a democracy. Bringing together contributions from senior broadcasters, politicians from various parties and academics and researchers, the book approaches the issues from a range of different perspectives. The first section of the book focuses on broadcasters’ accounts of the difficulties involved in establishing the structure and organisation of Parliamentary broadcasting, while the second section gives politicians’ own assessments of the consequences of the admission of cameras to the House. The third section looks at the findings of research studies assessing the type of materials broadcast, the impact on political journalism, and audience responses. The fourth section draws comparison with the American, German and European experience of televising democracy.
