Vinny and Bud Comix
Welcome to the second book in the Vinny & Bud series. The story continues with the two 10 yr. old boys facing the summer of '77 with humor like Charlie Brown meets the 70's Show. Vinny still hates disco; Bud still hasn't gotten to ask out the new girl; Bill & Rex's Band get hired to play at the school prom; Grandpa is still having crazy WW II flashbacks and everyone has the hots for Bud's mom. Join us as the adventures continue in the lives of Vinny & Bud.
Vinny & Bud
Vinny & Bud is a story mostly about friendship. Bud, who is 10 years old and his 28 year old Mom, recently divorced, move to a new town for a fresh start. The halarious adventures begin when Bud meets Vinny and they become friends. Vinny lives with his older brother, Bill, aged 16, and his grandpa, a veteran of WWII who not only is senile, but prone to flashbacks from the war. A lot of Vince's experiences growing up have been used in this book as well as the day to day experiences of the youth of today which keeps the humour fresh and hip. Vinny and Bud go from adventure to adventure on their skateboards and the fun never stops.
Contemporary Issues in Sociology of Sport
Melnick, PhD, Contemporary Issues in Sociology of Sport includes: an exploration of topics and themes that have received limited attention in other sociology of sport texts but have been long-standing social concerns; a review of the attitudes toward female athletes and the anti-homosexual phobias present in sport; an in-depth look at the impoverishment of children's games in America; an overview of high school sport participation; a study of the challenges and benefits of the big-time collegiate sport experience; a critique of television's impact on sport and its portrayal of gender and race, and a review of sport and globalization. Unit I provides the reader with a historical background on the development of sociology of sport and addresses several critical issues about the relationship between sociology, physical education, and sociology of sport.
80s Kid
A humorous and nostalgic trip through a typical 80s childhood. Told through the eyes of a normal (ish) British kid from the Birmingham suburbs. A time when urban exploration on your bike was a day long adventure, a Wimpy birthday party the equivalent of a party on a celebrity yacht, Diamond White was a teenage rite of passage and people still wrote love letters and dreamed of winning the pools. Where no one did anything online and the only phones at home were landlines that probably had a lock on. 80s Kid tells the story of a different world, even though it wasn't that long ago.
Oscar's Favorite Actors
Just as the Academy Awards have an impact upon stars and their careers, their filmic achievements influence the Academy and contribute to the rich history of the Oscars. Upset wins, jarring losses and glaring oversights have helped define the careers of Hollywood icons, while unknown actors have proven that timing sometimes beats notoriety or even talent. With detailed discussion of their performances and Awards night results, this book describes how 108 actors earned the Academy's favor--and how 129 others were overlooked.

Richer Than God
Richer Than God is an authoritative, provocative, investigative account of Manchester City's history, culminating in its transformation as Sheikh Mansour seeks to spend the formerly miserable Manchester club into the European elite. When Conn asked an American working in Abu Dhabi whether its economy had been at all affected by the global recession, he said: 'My friend, we're richer than God'. It is also a tale of innocence: that of a six-year-old boy transfixed by his sky-blue heroes, coming of age as a writer with the mature understanding that both his club and the game are businesses. Why should modern football continue to claim the unquestioning loyalty of fans, when there is so much in the game to question?
