Drums Along the Congo: On the Trail of Mokele-Mbembe, the Last Living Dinosaur

"Being more interested in chasing a dream than in the precise diameter of a footprint, I'm here to substantiate the obscure," says explorer Nugent, who takes us on an energizing, entertaining spin through the Congo in pursuit of a prehistoric creature purported to be still roaming the rain forest: the legendary dinosaur called Mokele-Mbembe, the God-Beast. Along the way, a witch doctor takes Nugent's money, strips him naked, covers him with a foul-smelling jellied substance and exorcises his devils. Nugent tangles with government bureaucrats to obtain necessary travel permits, he meditates on the African notion of river spirits and on animism, suffers from diarrhea and scorching heat, witnesses a celebration in honor of a girl's first menstruation, tries to coax music and magic out of a set of bongos, hunts and eats crocodiles (he finds that a roasted croc steak is tasty but very greasy), and is threatened by Pygmies with bows and arrows. From a distance, Nugent finally spots the God-Beast. But the natives are spooked and, by gunpoint, prevent him from getting closer; he only sees a vague image and, he relates, even the experts who examine his photographs later in New York aren't sure what Nugent has captured on film. Photos not seen by PW. Author tour. (June) Nugent's The Search for the Pink-Headed Duck , about his quest for a rare bird in India, is a June paperback reprint from Houghton Mifflin, $10.95 *Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. Nugent, in his second travel tome, continues his quest for the unknown and unreachable. His Search for the Pink-Headed Duck (Houghton, 1991) took him deep into the wilds of the Himalayan kingdoms. In his latest travel adventure, Nugent takes his captivated readers to Lake Tele, deep in the heart of the Congo, in search of a dinosaur-like creature named Mokele-Mbembe, a legendary deity that exhibits all the frightening qualities of the Loch Ness Monster. The author, once again employing his sublime sense of humor and adventuresome sense of the outrageous, visits with local witch doctors and tribal chiefs while making his way through the Cretaceous-period jungle and the threatened rain forest. He provides us with a fascinating account of an almost unexplored and wild region.- Melinda Stivers Leach, Wondervu, Col.Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Nugent (The Search for the Pink-Headed Duck, 1991--not reviewed), a specialist in cryptozoological adventures--combing the far regions of the earth for undiscovered beasties--takes on Mokele-Mbembe, a brontosaurus-like dinosaur reported to dwell in the rain forests of central Africa. Most of Nugent's wry account consists of his misadventures in getting to Lake Tele in the Congo, purported home of Mokele-Mbembe. The clues are scarce: a few sightings by explorers; a questionable footprint; Pygmy tales of a rusty-skinned, long-necked creature with a single giant tooth. The natives, avid fetishists, revere Mokele-Mbembe as an immensely powerful spirit or god. A determined Nugent spends weeks in the broiling heat of Brazzaville, pleading with petty officials for a travel permit, even undergoing a naked exorcism to help his cause. Finally, the permit materializes and the author sets out for Lake Tele. Along the way, he collects gorgeous butterflies and hideous beetles, drinks crocodile brains, gets butted by a pangolin. And some illusions are shattered: He arrives at a remote village with trinkets for the natives only to find mowed lawns, clipped hedges, and stereos blasting heavy-metal music. But eventually the primeval jungle appears, and Nugent gets lost in it, encountering Pygmies who threaten him with bows and arrows. At last, he spots from about a kilometer away an ``elongated black form that curves in on itself,'' but when he dashes in for a closer look, his guides restrain him at gunpoint, explaining that ``The god can approach man, but man NEVER can approach the god. He would have killed us all.'' Much wittier than most cryptozoological reports (which veer toward stuffiness to counterbalance the jeers)--and a spanking good travelogue to boot.

Mouse Makes Magic: Phonics Reader (Step-Into-Reading, Step 2)

Kindergarten-Grade 1-On 11 spreads, a mouse magician changes a middle vowel, thus creating a new word. Some of the pairs, such as "leg" and "log," will be familiar to beginning readers.

Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace (1999)

"I have a bad feeling about this," says the young Obi-Wan Kenobi (played by Ewan McGregor) in Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace as he steps off a spaceship and into the most anticipated cinematic event... well, ever. He might as well be speaking for the legions of fans of the original episodes in the Star Wars saga who can't help but secretly ask themselves: Sure, this is Star Wars, but is it my Star Wars? The original elevated moviegoers' expectations so high that it would have been impossible for any subsequent film to meet them. And as with all the Star Wars movies, The Phantom Menace features inexplicable plot twists, a fistful of loose threads, and some cheek-chewing dialogue. Han Solo's swagger is sorely missed, as is the pervading menace of heavy-breathing Darth Vader. There is still way too much quasi-mystical mumbo jumbo, and some of what was fresh about Star Wars 22 years earlier feels formulaic. Yet there's much to admire. The special effects are stupendous; three worlds are populated with a mlange of creatures, flora, and horizons rendered in absolute detail. The action and battle scenes are breathtaking in their complexity. And one particular sequence of the film--the adrenaline-infused pod race through the Tatooine desert--makes the chariot race in Ben-Hur look like a Sunday stroll through the park. Among the host of new characters, there are a few familiar walk-ons. We witness the first meeting between R2-D2 and C-3PO, Jabba the Hutt looks younger and slimmer (but not young and slim), and Yoda is as crabby as ever. Natalie Portman's stately Queen Amidala sports hairdos that make Princess Leia look dowdy and wields a mean laser. We never bond with Jedi Knight Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson), and Obi-Wan's day is yet to come. Jar Jar Binks, a cross between a Muppet, a frog, and a hippie, provides many of the movie's lighter moments, while Sith Lord Darth Maul is a formidable force. Baby-faced Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) looks too young and innocent to command the powers of the Force or wield a lightsaber (much less transmute into the future Darth Vader), but his boyish exuberance wins over skeptics. Near the end of the movie, Palpatine, the new leader of the Republic, may be speaking for fans eagerly awaiting Episode II when he pats young Anakin on the head and says, "We will watch your career with great interest." Indeed! --Tod Nelson

The Amazing Life of Moe Berg: Catcher, Scholar, Spy

Grade 6-8-Although few young people are likely to have heard of Berg, this 1920's and 30's baseball player was a fascinating and multidimensional man. Although never a superstar, he traveled with several all-star teams to baseball-obsessed Japan, where his ability to speak the language endeared him to the Japanese people. His baseball career ended with the outbreak of World War II. Partly because of his linguistic ability, Berg was recruited into a top-secret intelligence unit charged with disrupting Germany's efforts to make an atomic bomb and was involved in classic cloak-and-dagger stuff throughout the war. Andryszewski tells the story of this exceptionally bright and eccentric man in a straightforward manner. She lets Berg's life speak for itself, and intelligently separates fact from fiction. (No easy feat, given his ability to stretch the truth when recounting some of his tales.) Unfortunately, the last half of his life is given little attention and somehow seems incomplete. It seems that after the war, Berg mostly mooched off friends and relatives, reading a lot, but not doing much of anything else. This book may need some pushing, but readers who pick it up will be taken beyond the boundaries of the normal sports biography.?Todd Morning, Schaumburg Township Public Library, ILCopyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. Gr. 6^-9. Moe Berg may not be familiar to modern audiences, but they will be intrigued to learn about his life. The son of Jewish immigrants, Berg got himself to Princeton, but he never lost his love of baseball, and his career in the major leagues spanned 16 years. He was also a lawyer, a talented linguist, and a world traveler. Those skills brought him to the attention of the U.S. government, which decided Berg could help his country with some important missions during World War II. He spent the war culling information from European scientists about the nuclear bomb. Although his work as a spy was invaluable, Berg drifted after the war, never really holding a job or even having his own home again. The book is crisply written, and the subject will make an excellent alternative to the usual cast of characters on biography shelves. Despite problems she discusses in the introduction, Andryszewski does a good job of sourcing her material. Illustrated with black-and-white photos. Ilene Cooper

7 Keys to Changing Your Life, Health and Wealth

It is my mission to help a million people do their own choices and changes. I am a professional speaker who does workshops on the 7 Keys to change. I help people do change and I help businesses deal with or manage change...because I know about changes and attitudes. I wrote this book for anyone who has experienced the terrible isolation and pain of addiction, the prison of overweight, suicidal thinking, and/or overspending to try to fill the void. I trust there are some answers and ideas in it, which came from my own painful experiences. I have been miraculously blessed with a new life and fantastic opportunities to live a life of true joy. For me, the hardest part of all was to finally understand that no new diet, new lover or new possession was going to create a new me; that nothing changes outside until something changes inside. My book is intended to give others some guidance - the chance to discover that for themselves. People Are Talking "The ideas you present in the 7 Keys are simple and real. They support the process of change as we make new choices in our lives. Most human beings don't like change, it is confusing and frightening. The help you provide through your book makes the change process more palatable!" Judy Sabah, Business/Personal Coach, Professional Speaker, Co-founder/Past President, Colorado Speakers Association. "You brought an inspirational spark to our luncheon! We have gotten great feedback from our members. You gave many the gentle kick that you promised. Your experiences give your motivational talk backbone and credibility. Your enjoyment of the task pulls your audience up to the stage. You have a warm style that invites your listeners and readers to participate. The personal stories give your presentation texture, humor and relevancy. You have a great story to share and the talents to share it vividly! You also made warm, personal connections with individuals you met prior to and after the luncheon. I have enjoyed your book as well. You give succinct insights into life. I am adopting one phrase from your book -- Live one day at a time and make it a masterpiece. Very few people live the theory of abundance. It's nice to meet a woman who embodies the theory in her actions. I would highly recommend you as a speaker to any organization looking to inspire and motivate its members. Thanks, Lin" Keller Hayes, President, Colorado Women's Chamber of Commerce. "It is the most beautiful lake I have ever seen. Much as I hate to admit, it may be even more breathtaking than Colorado's own Fern Lake or Lake Agnes. It was nine o'clock on a long summer evening way to the north of us. The sun was only beginning to set, and that heavy, warm, golden glow was wrapping itself around the surrounding peaks. All the colors were indescribably bright, vivid and clear. This is Moraine Lake and it is in the beyond-spectacular Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada, about ten miles south of the village of Lake Louise. This magical looking glass sits in the Valley of the Ten Peaks. High, rugged peaks, pure white clouds, trees, snow and shale were so perfectly reflected in the water, that on the developed photos most people turn the photo upside down because the image is even more blue and clear than the sky. Connie and I had just finished dinner and decided to hike into bear country. The crowds had begun to thin late in the evening, and there were signs all around us declaring that bear had been seen on that very trail in the last few days. Connie was dying to see a bear! She kept asking "What are we going to do if we see one? Gee, I hope we see one!" As the great authority I am on bears, I assured her that what we would do was stand our ground, never run, walk with big sticks, and if worse came to worse, and one charged us we would just cram our cameras down its throat. Then it couldn't eat us! I looked at her and realized she had this little tiny point-and-shoot type of camera. It would not even have served as an appetizer. There were flocks of tiny, duck-like birds which suddenly disappeared straight down into the water, all at once -- as though somebody gave a secret signal. We could clearly see every rock under the water. Logs were floating everywhere. The smell was heavy, cool, rich, loamy. We could see fish and little eddies under the water. There were bubbles coming out from under some of the rocks, perhaps from a bubbling spring. We laughed. And we hiked. And we talked. But, the best was when we just sat in silence and felt it all. When we looked at all of nature perfectly mirrored in that incredible, amazing, blue water. It was a feeling of completeness; of this is IT! A knowing that there is not another place on the planet I would rather be in this one perfect moment. Living in the present moment takes discipline and desire. We can only embrace a new way in this moment. We cannot find joy in any moment but the one we are in. It doesn't exist in the past nor in the future. We stop playing victim and leave the past behind -- in the present moment. from chapter 8: Stop Playing Victim

Secret Agent (Alfred Hitchcock series, Special Edition) (1936)

This digitally mastered SP mode Laserlight edition of "Secret Agent" includes a short introduction by Tony Curtis. Many Laserlight classics have an intro like this. Mr. Curtis provides interesting production tidbits, a few still photos and publicity shots are shown; this version is a welcome addition to the many poorer quality budget releases of this title out there. Laser Light has also added an original theatrical trailer to the 1955 Hitchcock trailer, THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH. As for the movie itself... For a 1936 suspense thriller, it holds up pretty well. A charming villain, an innocent man who appears guilty--these trademark Hitchcock touches make The Secret Agent a wonderfully offbeat mystery. Suspense builds to a shattering climax as a novice British agent, a lovely spy apprentice, and an eccentric assassin unmask their enemy. Hitchcock fans won't want to miss it. There is a lot of humor in this film, most of it courtesy of Peter Lorre, who steals the film as The General.

The Bear Went Over The Mountain (Bunny Read's Back)

PreS?This board-book series is based on the concept that preschoolers will learn to "read" by turning the pages, looking at the pictures and words, and singing the familiar songs that they have memorized. In Bear, a cub leaves his mother to make the trek up the side of the mountain, basket of flowers in hand. He looks around and returns to his mother's arms after tumbling down the hill. In the final frame, he attempts the trip again. In Itsy-Bitsy, a goose wanders near a drainpipe at the corner of a house and a spider plops out of nowhere onto its beak. Filled with humor and warmth, Wells's colorful illustrations bring new life to these favorite rhymes. Simple and short with large print, these cozy books will be welcome additions.?Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VACopyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Factory-Reconditioned Porter-Cable 9878R 14.4-Volt 1/2-Inch Cordless Drill Kit

This cordless driver/drill from Porter-Cable has a 1/2-inch keyless chuck that is easy to adjust and reacts quickly to the trigger. It offers 360 inch-pounds of maximum torque, a 20-position clutch, and a two-speed gearbox with a maximum speed of 1,450 rotations per minute. There's plenty of power for almost any home-based project, as well as many professional applications. The battery has an extremely tough slide-on attachment design that is almost impervious to wear, and the grip is comfortable and well balanced. We especially like the rubber portions of the grip, which add friction and make it feel more secure in your hand than tools with all plastic grips. It also comes with its own plastic case, a double-ended bit tip, and a diagnostic charger with an LED warning system. Overall, it's relatively lightweight and, in our opinion, as solid as any drill/driver we've used. --Jonathon Tudor Factory-Reconditioned Porter-Cable 9878R 14.4-Volt 1/2-inch Cordless Drill Kit

Now You Know The Aloha Steamtrain

" Deliriously catchy, with harmonies that would make the most steadfast pop-phobe swoon." -- Michael Strohl - The Valley Advocate"a dreamy psychedelic blast of pop nirvana for the 90s one of the best new American bands" (Johnny Memphis - Music Director WRSI (The River)) -- (Johnny Memphis - Music Director WRSI - The River)Their charm is irresistible...suddenly you're happy about rock music again" (Joe ORourke (WRNX)) -- (Joe ORourke - WRNX) The Aloha Steamtrain is Lord Russ, Brian Todd, Joe Boyle and Henning Ohlenbusch. Original performers playing great original songs. Lord Russ is the magic voice and author behind the psychedelic pop hits that simultaneously introduce us to a brand new sound and evoke old lovable feelings. With songs that are at the same time Happy and Angry, Beautiful and Lecherous, Abstract and Dead-On, The Aloha Steamtrain is going to change the face of music today, dont you doubt it. On stage or coming through your speakers, The Steamtrain grabs you, blows you up, and sets you afloat. Lord Russ writes like Ray Davies, sings like Tom Jones, moves like Iggy Pop, and thinks like Syd Barrett. Henning is a tall, skinny, technical lizard. His bass is his friend and the mellotron is his altar. Joe Boyle plays the guitar like the lion tamer he is, a master of all things musical. Finally, Brian looks and sounds like a secretary typing 135 words a minute. Some say its the sideburns. What Have They Done? Recorded their own CD Girl Planet with minimal equipment borrowed from friends. Packed the houses at their CD release show at The Iron Horse, in Northampton, and CBGBs, in New York City. Regularly break fire codes with unheard of crowds at Northamptons Bay State.

Packed the house at The 1999 Northampton Music Festival and are featured as the opening track on the NMF 98 Compilation CD. Have completed recording the new 14 song album, Now You Know The Aloha Steamtrain at Slaughterhouse Studios with Mark Miller and Thom Monahan (The Lilys, The Scud Mountain Boys, The Ray Mason Band, The Pernice Brothers) due for release early in the fall of 2000. Shot a video with award-winning film maker, Eric Marciano of NYC. Voted by readers as the best altenative/eclectic band in The Valley Advocates Grand Band Slam with best guitarist prize going to Joe Boyle. Charted #1 in the psychedelic category on WWW.MP3.COM. A sonic psychedelic journey of melody, harkening back to the sixties but lunging uncontrollably through the new millenium. Mod Pop Rock that finally introduces Syd Barrett to Tom Jones. Iggy and David merge. Lennon and Hitchcock elope. Mellotron tinged songs of affliction, affection, and addiction. The golden voice of your sexual partner Lord Russ can blind you like a lighthouse. Lovers of melodic and powerful songs will fall in love with The Aloha Steamtrain.

African Short Stories: An Anthology

Eighteen stories from nine African countries, with famous pieces such as Achebe's Civil Peace and Ngugi's The Return as well as several fine works by less-known writers, make up this anthology. Only one woman, however, Ama Ata Aidoo, is represented; other women authors such as Flora Nwapa and Grace Ogot should surely have been included. Each story is accompanied by visually distracting line numbers, and followed by a lengthy commentary: notes on the author, plot summary, and notes and questions on the text. While students will welcome this material and the general introduction, the volume is not, as is claimed, designed ``for reading pleasure.'' Chinua Achebe and C.L. Innes's recent paperback anthology African Short Stories ( LJ 2/15/85) is a better selection, without the commentary but at one fifth the price.

Five Days in July

Toronto-based Blue Rodeo was purveying its own alternately sunny, grizzled mix of country and rock before the alternative country boomlet made it fashionable, achieving stardom north of the border but nary a blink of recognition in the U.S. This self-produced 1993 album, recorded mostly live at the band's farm and released the following year in the U.S., brought them belated stateside fans partly because of the alternative country trend, partly because the set was more lyrical and explicit in its country accents. As transparent, and unapologetic, Neil Young fans, this was Blue Rodeo's Harvest, distinguished by the poles of its songwriting and singing team, Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor. Cuddy's clear, soaring tenor provides a romantic foil for Keelor's smokier, rougher-edged vocals, and together they write brooding rock ballads (5 Days in May), ringing, deceptively uptempo loser's anthems (Hasn't Hit Me Yet), and convincing country ballads (Bad Timing), as well as spacier rock dirges (What Is This Love, featuring Sarah McLachlan). --Sam Sutherland

La recopielacin de estos casos es un trabajo real sobre hechos ocurridos, que a veces, por terrorficos, parecen pura fantasa: Por desgracia, son ciertos.

Diva La Grande

Though not as polished as her next effort, 1998's Swango, Diva La Grande is a very strong effort from blues belter Candye Kane, and chock full of her concert favorites. There's her standard opener "You Need a Great Big Woman," the true-confessional "Love 'Em & Forgive 'Em," the good-time "I Left My Heart in Texas," and audience favorites "The Lord Was a Woman" (here featuring a guitar solo from Dave Alvin) and "I'm in Love with a Girl." There's also a spirited cover of "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'," the jivin' "Freak Lover," and the instrumental "Beehive," a showcase for the considerable talents of pianist Sue Palmer. Overall, it's easy to understand why Candye Kane has attracted a devoted and growing cult following--she's got considerable talent, and an attitude to match. --Genevieve Williams

Nothing's Sacred

You've seen him on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart offering up his trademark angry observational humor on everything from politics to pop culture. You've seen his energetic stand-up performances on HBO, Comedy Central, and in venues across the globe. Now Lewis Black's volcanic eruptions can be found in Nothing's Sacred, a collection of rants against stupidity and authority, which oftentimes go hand in hand. With subversive wit and intellectual honesty, Lewis examines the events of his life that shaped his anti-authoritarian point of view and developed his comedic perspective. Growing up in 1950s suburbia when father knew best and there was a sitcom to prove it, he began to regard authority with a jaundiced eye at an early age. And as that sentiment grew stronger with each passing year, so did his ability to hone in on the absurd. True to form, he puts common sense above ideology and distills hilarious, biting commentary on all things politically and culturally relevant.

Who We Are:: A Portrait of America Based on the 1990 Census

This study by the urban affairs columnist of the New York Times interprets the raw data from the Census Bureau's national census of 1990. The book contains much information that will come as no surprise to most readers: the number of teenage pregnancies in all ethnic groups is increasing; more than a million Americans are in jail or on probation; the Reagan-Bush administrations benefitted the rich primarily. And there are data which are essentially meaningless, like education measured quantitatively rather than qualitatively. The statistics show the results of racism in the nation: higher infant death rates, shorter life span, 84% joblessness or poverty-level employment for high school dropouts and fewer nuclear families among America's black society. Given the figures compiled here about the country's many troubles, the book serves as a warning that changes must be made. First serial to the New York Times Magazine and Cosmopolitan; author tour. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. Themes in this thought-provoking work bring together otherwise discrete census statistics not only from 1990 but from earlier years: immigration patterns ("our complexion"); demographics ("where we live, how we dream and commute"); changes in the distribution of poverty; figures showing that correctional facilities got top housing investment dollars in 1990; comparative education levels of different elements in our population; and statistics indicating that the fastest population growth in the United States is occurring among those under age five or over 60. Can census data help tell us how to plan? Roberts, a New York Times urban affairs columnist, acknowledges a surfeit of variables but implies that we can learn from interpreting available information such as the census. Here, however, he predicts only that the world (including America) will be much more complicated and diverse in the future. An interesting and browsable book.- Suzanne W. Wood, SUNY Coll. of Technology, AlfredCopyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. By analyzing 1990 census results (and comparing them with results from previous years), Roberts points out surprising changes in American society as well as troubling echoes from previous eras. He touches on the aging of the U.S. population and on racial and economic discrimination, pointing out that "never before, despite previous waves of immigration, has the nation been so diverse. Nor have contrasts . . . been so stark." His informative summary of the census also describes how it was compiled. Denise Perry Donavin At best, census statistics represent single frames in a moving picture. With due regard for the limitations, New York Times columnist Roberts has seized upon the demographic data accruing from 1990's nose count to produce a series of snapshots that provide provocative if sometimes blurry perspectives on the vigorous state of the union. The author imposes a welcome measure of order on the wealth of figures at his disposal by focusing on a dozen major topics from vantage points that afford him access to both a rearview mirror and a crystal ball. Cases in point range from a rundown on the country's ethnic/racial mix through rapid-fire takes on the age, economic status, education, lifestyle, and allied characteristics of US residents (whether aliens or citizens). Roberts delivers his by-the-numbers briefings and interpretive commentary (which is informed by a notably liberal sensibility) at a breakneck pace that could overwhelm the inattentive. The easily distracted need not despair, however, because nearly every page includes an arresting fact or finding that will give most readers pause. By way of example, in canvassing our culturally diverse, graying, predominantly suburban population (which had expanded by close to 10%, to almost 249.0 million, since the last decennial check), enumerators found more millionaires than homeless street people. They also learned that blacks are the only group whose women outnumber its men in the labor force and that no family group grew faster than single parents, while the roll call of gainfully employed health-care workers was 50% greater than in 1980; elsewhere on the minus side of 1990's ledger, twice as many individuals worked for government as themselves. Absorbing abstracts that breathe life and meaning into the mercurial arithmetic of America. The text has helpful charts, maps, and tabular material throughout.

AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004)

In delivering PG-13-rated excitement, Alien vs. Predator is an acceptably average science-fiction action thriller with some noteworthy highlights, even if it squanders its opportunity to intelligently combine two popular and R-rated franchises. Rabid fans can justifiably ask "Is that all there is?" after a decade of development hell and eager anticipation, but we're compensated by reasonably logical connections to the Alien legacy and the still-kicking Predator franchise (which hinted at AVP rivalry at the end of Predator 2); some cleverly claustrophobic sets, tense atmosphere and impressive digital effects; and a climactic AVP smackdown that's not half bad. This disposable junk should've been better, but nobody who's seen Mortal Kombat or Resident Evil should be surprised by writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson's lack of imagination. As a brisk, 90-minute exercise in generic thrills, however, Anderson's work is occasionally impressive... right up to his shameless opening for yet another sequel. --Jeff Shannon In delivering non-18-rated excitement, Alien vs. Predator is an acceptably average science-fiction action thriller with some noteworthy highlights, even if it squanders its opportunity to intelligently combine two popular franchises.

The Swan Princess II [VHS] (1997)

This straight-to-video sequel to The Swan Princess concerns the kidnapping of Prince Derek's mother, a crime that lures the prince into danger himself. Princess Odette can save him--but only if she becomes a swan herself. Even given the lesser ambitions and budgets afforded direct-to-video sequels, it's hard to accept that this boxy, unexciting movie has the same director (Richard Rich) as the fine, first feature in the series. More like a Saturday-morning cartoon than a real film, this is a disappointment, though kids who couldn't care less about scale might get caught up in the story. --Tom Keogh

The Battle of Love's Return is one of Lloyd Kaufman's (President of Troma and creator of The Toxic Avenger) early directorial efforts. In the tradition of Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, and Charlie Chaplin, The Battle of Love's Return is the witty, whimsical story of one little man's struggle for happiness in the crazy, modern world.

Dim-witted and accident prone, Abercrombie bounces from one absurd job to another, and finally to the battlefield. Only one person appears to bring him happiness, the "Dreamgirl" who seems to be always just out of reach.

The Three Stooges - How High Is Up? [VHS] (1940)

"Half Wits' Holiday" (1947, short number 97 in the Columbia series) is an unnecessary remake of "Hoi Polloi" from 1935, in which a bet is made that the boys can/cannot be transformed into being acceptable to high society. Needless to say the experiment is a dismal failure right down to the last thrown pie. Here the table-manners lesson in pantomime is overly long and too familiar to those who saw it all before, most notably in Laurel & Hardy's "Oliver the Eighth." This is, however, Curly's last film in the series because of a stroke during the shooting, and Shemp was called in to replace him "temporarily." A sad farewell to a great clown. "Horses' Collars" (1935, number 5) is fairly lethargic until the final sequence in which mouse-hating Curley (as his name is spelled then) wreaks havoc on foe and friend alike. As will happen many times with variations, something triggers uncontrollable rage in the oversized Stooge. Only three films earlier, it was "Pop Goes the Weasel" and later it would be the sight of tassels! There is one good coin-shooting sequence in which Moe aims at a tossed $5 coin and turns it to change. In the hanging sequence, the harnesses from which Larry and Moe are suspended are clearly visible. "How High Is Up?" (1940, number 48) is plotless and devotes far too much footage to trying to get Curly out of a tight sweater. Once they are up on the 97th floor of a building under construction, only Curly's balletic skills save the film from utter predictability. Even Laurel & Hardy could not make gold out of this high-on-a-skyscraper situation. Actor spotters might notice Bruce Bennet (otherwise known as Herman Brix when he played Tarzan) as a bit player. --Frank Behrens

We Die Alone

If this story of espionage and survival were a novel, readers might dismiss the Shackleton-like exploits of its hero as too fantastic to be taken seriously. But respected historian David Howarth confirmed the details of Jan Baalsrud's riveting tale. It begins in the spring of 1943, with Norway occupied by the Nazis and the Allies desperate to open the northern sea lanes to Russia. Baalsrud and three compatriots plan to smuggle themselves into their homeland by boat, spend the summer recruiting and training resistance fighters, and launch a surprise attack on a German air base. But he's betrayed shortly after landfall, and a quick fight leaves Baalsrud alone and trapped on a freezing island above the Arctic Circle. He's poorly clothed (one foot is entirely bare), has a head start of only a few hundred yards on his Nazi pursuers, and leaves a trail of blood as he crosses the snow. How he avoids capture and ultimately escapes--revealing that much spoils nothing in this white-knuckle narrative--is astonishing stuff. Baalsrud's feats make the travails in Jon Krakauer's Mt. Everest classic Into Thin Air look like child's play. In an introduction, Stephen Ambrose calls We Die Alone a rare reading experience: "a book that I absolutely cannot put down until I've finished it and one that I can never forget." This amazing book will disappoint no one. --John J. Miller --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. This 1955 volume is one of the most remarkable survival stories ever written. Jan Baalsrud was the only survivor of a Norwegian commando team ambushed by the Nazis during World War II. Wounded and with the Germans in pursuit, Baalsrud escaped and miraculously fought his way through the Norwegian tundra to a distant village, where he was saved by locals who helped spirit him to Sweden. Baalsrud suffered frostbite and snowblindness, came through an avalanche, and lived to tell the tale. This edition has a new introduction by Citizen Soldiers' author Stephen Ambrose.

"Fills one with humble admiration."--New York Times --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. March 2, 2010 Op-Ed Columnist By DAVID BROOKS The United States, a nation of 300 million, won nine gold medals this year in the Winter Olympics. Norway, a nation of 4.7 million, also won nine. This was no anomaly. Over the years, Norwegians have won more gold medals in Winter Games, and more Winter Olympics medals over all, than people from any other nation. There must be many reasons for Norway's excellence, but some of them are probably embedded in the story of Jan Baalsrud. In 1943, Baalsrud was a young instrument maker who was asked to sneak back into Norway to help the anti-Nazi resistance. His mission, described in the book "We Die Alone" by David Howarth, was betrayed. His boat was shelled by German troops. Baalsrud dove into the ice-covered waters and swam, with bullets flying around him, toward an island off the Norwegian coast. The rest of his party was killed on the spot, or captured and eventually executed, but Baalsrud made it to the beach and started climbing an icy mountain. He was chased by Nazis, and he killed one officer. He was hunted by about 50 Germans and left a trail in the deep snow. He'd lost one boot and sock, and he was bleeding from where his big toe had been shot off. He scrambled across the island and swam successively across the icy sound to two other islands. On the second, he lay dying of cold and exhaustion on the beach. Two girls found and led him to their home. And this is the core of the story. During the next months, dozens of Norwegians helped Baalsrud get across to Sweden. Flouting any sense of rational cost-benefit analysis, families and whole villages risked their lives to help one gravely ill man, who happened to drop into their midst. Baalsrud was clothed and fed and rowed to another island. He showed up at other houses and was taken in. He began walking across the mountain ranges on that island in the general direction of the mainland, hikes of 24, 13 and 28 hours without break. A 72-year-old man rowed him the final 10 miles to the mainland, past German positions, and gave him skis. Up in the mountains, he skied through severe winter storms. One night, he started an avalanche. He fell at least 300 feet, smashed his skis and suffered a severe concussion. His body was buried in snow, but his head was sticking out. He lost sense of time and self-possession. He was blind, the snow having scorched the retinas of his eyes. He wandered aimlessly for four days, plagued by hallucinations. At one point he thought he had found a trail, but he was only following his own footsteps in a small circle. Finally, he stumbled upon a cottage. A man named Marius Gronvold took him in. He treated Baalsrud's frostbite and hid him in a remote shed across a lake to recover. He was alone for a week (a storm made it impossible for anyone to reach him). Gangrene invaded his legs. He stabbed them to drain the pus and blood. His eyesight recovered, but the pain was excruciating and he was starving. Baalsrud could no longer walk, so Gronvold and friends built a sled. They carried the sled and him up a 3,000-foot mountain in the middle of a winter storm and across a frozen plateau to where another party was supposed to meet them. The other men weren't there, and Gronvold was compelled to leave Baalsrud in a hole in the ice under a boulder. The other party missed the rendezvous because of a blizzard, and by the time they got there, days later, the tracks were covered and they could find no sign of him. A week later, Gronvold went up to retrieve Baalsrud's body and was astonished to find him barely alive. Baalsrud spent the next 20 days in a sleeping bag immobilized in the snow, sporadically supplied by Gronvold and others. Over the next weeks, groups of men tried to drag him to Sweden but were driven back, and they had to shelter him again in holes in the ice. Baalsrud cut off his remaining toes with a penknife to save his feet. Tired of risking more Norwegian lives, he also attempted suicide. Finally, he was awoken by the sound of snorting reindeer. A group of Laps had arrived, and under German fire, they dragged him to Sweden. This astonishing story could only take place in a country where people are skilled on skis and in winter conditions. But there also is an interesting form of social capital on display. It's a mixture of softness and hardness. Baalsrud was kept alive thanks to a serial outpouring of love and nurturing. At the same time, he and his rescuers displayed an unbelievable level of hardheaded toughness and resilience. That's a cultural cocktail bound to produce achievement in many spheres. --This text refers to the Paperback edition. Here is one of the most exciting escape narratives to emerge from the challenges and miseries of World War Two. In March 1943, a team of expatriate Norwegian commandos sailed from northern England for Nazi-occupied arctic Norway to organize and supply the Norwegian resistance. But they were betrayed and the Nazis ambushed them. Only one man survived - Jan Baalsrud. This is the incredible and gripping story of his escape. Frostbitten and snowblind, pursued by the Nazis, he dragged himself on until he reached a small arctic village. He was near death, delirious, and a virtual cripple. But the villagers, at mortal risk to themselves, were determined to save him, and - through impossible feats - they did. We Die Alone is an astonishing true story of heroism and endurance. Like Salvomir Rawicz's The Long Walk, it is also an unforgettable portrait of the determination of the human spirit. (5 1/2 X 8 1/4, 272 pages, bw photos) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. During World War Two, David Howarth ran a spy ring from which both this volume and his previous bestseller - The Shetland Bus - derive. A renowned and respected historian, who wrote over two dozen books, Howarth died in 1991. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. A SHORT EXCERPT FROM WE DIE ALONE Jan Baalsrud set out in 1943 with a team of commandos to establish resistance to the Nazis in his native Norway. Upon landing, his eleven comrades were captured and killed. Only Baalsrud survived by killing a Gestapo officer and swimming through frigid waters. Shot in the foot, he set off for neutral Sweden. During his mountainous trek, he goes snowblind, is injured in an avalanche, suffers frostbite, and nearly starves while hiding in a snowcave. He is finally-remarkably-pulled to freedom by a team of reindeer as German bullets fly overhead. This short excerpt explains how, while hiding in a snow cave awaiting help, he found the courage to amputate his toes. This act of self mutilation probably saved his life. It is just one short, amazing piece of a fascinating book. "He was still under the impression, rightly or wrongly, that gangrene would go on spreading, unless one got rid of it, like dry rot in a house. The source of it all was his toes. They were not part of him any more, although they were still attached to him, and it seemed only common sense that he would be better off without them. There was nobody he could expect to help him; but now the time and the chance had come, and he made his preparations to cut off his toes himself. He still had his pocket-knife, and he still had some brandy. With the brandy as anaesthetic, and the knife as scalpel, lying curled up on his side in the snow with his leg drawn up so that he could reach it, he began carefully to dissect them one by one. It would have been best to get it all over quickly, but apart from the pain and the sickening repulsion, it was difficult to cut them; more difficult than he had expected. He had to find the joints. His hands were rather clumsy and very weak, because there ha! d been some frostbite in his fingers too, and the knife was not so sharp as it had been. He grimly persevered, and slowly succeeded. As each one was finally severed, he laid it on a small ledge of rock above him where he could see it, because he no longer had the strength to throw it far away. After each one he had to stop, to get over the nausea and dope himself with brandy. Someone had brought him some cod liver oil ointment, and he smeared a thick slab of it on each wound and tied it in place with a strip of blanket. This grisly operation was spread out over nearly three days. At the end of it, there were nine toes on the ledge. The little toe on his left foot did not seem so bad as the others, so he kept it." --From We Die Alone (pages 194-195) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. In this awe-inspiring story, Jan Baalsrud of Norway, along with other resistance fighters, is sent from Britain to northern Norway in March 1943. Someone rats on them, and they're ambushed with Jan, minus one shoe and a toe, escaping alone in the snow and cold. Helped along the way by a number of his countrymen, Baalsrud survives an avalanche, snow-blindness, being buried alive in the snow for over a week, and more before being taken over the border by the Lapps into Sweden on a reindeer sledge. Stuart Langston's narration is an apt fit. His delivery is as spare as the text and every bit as intriguing. His voice has a force of delivery that makes this exciting and unbelievable tale one that the listener will want to hear in one sitting. M.T.F.

Topology, Geometry and Gauge fields: Foundations (Texts in Applied Mathematics)

From the reviews: MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS "The presentation in the remaining five chapters is enriched by detailed discussions about the physical interpretations of connections, their curves and characteristic classes. I particularly enjoyed Chapter 2 where many fundamental physical examples are discussed at great length in a reader friendly fashion. No detail is left to the readers imagination or interpretation. I am not aware of another source where these very important examples and ideas are presented at a level accessible to beginnersThe topics covered in this book can be found in many other sources, but the present volume discusses with great care those aspects and notions which are particularly important in gauge theory. Moreover, the presentation is backed by many useful and relevant examples and I am convinced that any beginner in gauge theory will find them very useful." NZMS NEWSLETTER "It is unusual to find a book so carefully tailored to the needs of this interdisciplinary area of mathematical physics...Naber combines a knowledge of his subject with an excellent informal writing style." SIAM REVIEW "Naber writes in a most unpretentious style. His prose is not terse like Rudins, but not verbose either. He gives full details to all difficult calculations and shows good judgment in deciding what is difficult versus what is not. This is one way in which a writer demonstrates rapport with his/her readers. Never once has Naber omitted anything out of laziness, under the pretense that it is routine. The book is carefully thought out and lecture-tested account of the subject matter listed earlier. It is rigorous, with an emphasis on the details in the examples. Naber favors examples that deal with concrete spaces and revisits them whenever appropriateIn terms of its ability to teach a subject to the novice, this book ranks right up there with many classicsPeople who collect classics should consider buying this one, whether or not they plan to study it chapter by chapter. For someone who plans to compute right along with the examples, this book is a must-buy. Nabers goal is not to teach a sterile course on geometry and topology, but rather to enable us to see the subject in action, through gauge theory. The book is capable of fulfilling this goal because of Nabers efforts. He has undertaken the arduous task of researching the broad field with its extensive literature, learning the material himself, class testing it in lectures, and agonizing over the best ways to present it. Amazingly, the fruits of his labor can be had for less than $70, thanks to Springers consumer-friendly pricing[the reviewer] hopes that Naber will continue the scholarly program of bringing exciting mathematics and physics to a level of clarity that is within our reach." REVIEWS OF TOPOLOGY, GEOMETRY, AND GAUGE FIELDS: FOUNDATIONS "It is unusual to find a book so carefully tailored to the needs of this interdisciplinary area of mathematical physics...Naber combines a knowledge of his subject with an excellent informal writing style."NZMS NEWSLETTER "...this book should be very interesting for mathematicians and physicists (as well as other scientists) who ae concerned with gauge theories."ZENTRALBLATT FUER MATHEMATIK This is a book on topology and geometry and, like any books on subjects as vast as these, it has a point-of-view that guided the selection of topics. Naber takes the view that the rekindled interest that mathematics and physics have shown in each other of late should be fostered and that this is best accomplished by allowing them to cohabit. The book weaves together rudimentary notions from the classical gauge theory of physics with the topological and geometrical concepts that became the mathemtical models of these notions. We ask the reader to come to us with some vague notion of what an electromagnetic field might be, a willingness to accept a few of the more elementary pronouncements of quantum mechanics, a solid background in real analysis and linear algebra and some of the vocabulary of modern algebra. To such a reader we offer an excursion that begins with the definition of a topological space and finds its way eventually to the moduli space of anti-self-dual SU(2) connections on S4 with instanton number -1. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Serious Game

Although the story of misguided love, adultery and despair told in this turn-of-the-last-century Swedish novel is relatively simple, Soderberg's thorough exploration of his characters' lives makes it satisfyingly complex. Arvid falls in love with Lydia when they are both young; when ambition and straitened circumstances keep him from her, he still pines for her. After they both marry fairly lackluster mates, their love for each other remains constant. They have a prolonged affair, at the end of which lies despair for Arvid but contentment for Lydia. Soderberg manifests a keen painterly eye for settings: Arvid and Lydia's affair plays out against a backdrop of serene Stockholm parks, crowded newspaper offices full of workaholic journalists and the spare bedrooms where their trysts take place and in each locale, the details offered are just enough to create a world of sensations. Feminist readers may take umbrage at the male domination of Arvid's milieu women get little or no air time, although they would seem to determine the course of the novel. Soderberg creates psychological suspense worthy of Dostoyevski, as Arvid's internal moral conflicts achieve the gravity of physical pain. Tidbits of their affair are dropped along the way, as well, that make the book quaintly puzzle-like, as when Lydia instructs Arvid to put a postage stamp right side up if he loves her, upside down if he does not. Although the novel may be slow going in spots, its emotional intensity makes this translation a welcome occurrence. (Apr.)Forecast: A blurb from Margaret Atwood, a champion of Soderberg's work, may get browsers to stop and take a look. Even more effective would be a few well-placed reviews, which this novel amply deserves. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc. Text: English (translation) Original Language: Swedish

Too Many Tamales

Maria is feeling so grown-up, wearing her mother's apron and helping to knead the masa for the Christmas corn tamales. Her mother even let Maria wear some perfume and lipstick for the big family celebration that evening. When her mother takes off her diamond ring so it won't become coated with the messy masa, Maria decides that life would be perfect if she could wear the ring, too. Trouble begins when she sneakily slips the sparkly ring on her thumb and resumes her kneading. Uh oh. It is not until later that night, after all the tamales have been cooked and after all her cousins and relatives have arrived, that Maria suddenly realizes what must have happened to the precious ring. Ed Martinez's warm oil paintings celebrate the riches of South American Christmas colors--adobe reds, dusty gold, lacey whites, and rain-forest greens. Martinez also has a gift for capturing children's animated expressions, especially when Maria begs her cousins to help her find the missing ring by secretly eating the enormous stack of steaming tamales! Gary Soto's delightful Christmas-spirit closure will relieve young readers who empathize with the negligent Maria. Grown-ups, too, will appreciate this playful reminder about the virtues of forgiveness and family togetherness. (Ages 4 and older) --Gail Hudson Snow is falling, preparations for a family feast are underway and the air is thick with excitement. Maria is making tamales, kneading the masa and feeling grown-up. All she wants is a chance to wear her mother's diamond ring, which sparkles temptingly on the kitchen counter. When her mother steps away, Maria seizes her opportunity and dons the ring, then carries on with her work. Only later, when the tamales are cooled and a circle of cousins gathered, does Maria remember the diamond. She and the cousins search every tamale--with their teeth. Of course the ring turns out to be safely on Mom's finger. Soto, noted for such fiction as Baseball in April , confers some pleasing touches--a tear on Maria's finger resembles a diamond; he allows the celebrants a Hispanic identity without making it the main focus of the text--but overall the plot is too sentimental (and owes a major debt to an I Love Lucy episode). Martinez's sensuous oil paintings in deep earth tones conjure up a sense of family unity and the warmth of holidays. The children's expressions are deftly rendered--especially when they are faced with a second batch of tamales. Ages 4-8. Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. The whole family is coming for Christmas, so Maria and her parents are busy making tamales--Maria helps Mom knead the masa, and her father puts them in the pot to boil. While they're working, Maria secretly tries on Mom's diamond ring, then forgets about it until she's playing with her cousins. Since it's not on her thumb she's sure it's in a tamale, so the four cousins consume all 24 (with some difficulty) in hopes of finding it. No luck--the ring's on Mom's finger, after all. In this family, there's no scolding: Aunt Rosa says, ``It looks like we all have to cook up another batch,'' and so they do, three generations laughing and working together. Soto's simple text is charmingly direct; he skips explanations, letting characters reveal themselves by what they do. Martinez's realistic, nicely composed paintings are glowing with light and life, while he reinforces the story with particularly expressive faces and gestures. This one should become a staple on the holiday menu. (Picture book. 4- 8) -- Copyright 1993, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

They Are Soldiers

Coyle (More Than Courage) chills with a sometimes clumsily written but disturbingly plausible story about a Virginia National Guard unit facing the threat of biological weapons in a security zone between Israelis and a new Palestinian state. Coyle narrates from numerous perspectives, including that of Guard memberspostmen, volunteer firefightersfrom tiny Bedlow, Va., and the military officers commanding their unit. In the Middle East, Coyle also enters the minds of Syed Amama, a young Palestinian suicide bomber who miraculously survived a successful mission, and Hammed Kamel, a microbiologist determined to rid the new state of its American and Israeli scourge. Chapters about the American deployment are heartfelt but boilerplate, as husbands leave pregnant wives and Coyle describes in excessive detail the heroic patriotism of the military men and the complexities of the U.S. military situation. But a series of taut chapters in which the Americans come face to face with another suicide bomber raises the tension and the stakes, and the stirring climax describes a dangerous raid on Kamel's weapons lab after Amama manages to infect some of the guardsmen with a deadly biological agent. The revolving-character door may leave readers dizzy by the time they reach the climax, but for those who don't mind a heavy hand and a bit of excess patriotism, this is a solid read. Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. "Harold Coyle is the best natural storyteller I know." --Tom Clancy"Harold Coyle is a superbly talented storyteller . . . the Tom Clancy of ground warfare." --W.E.B. Griffin Harold Coyle graduated from the Virginia Military Institute and spent fourteen years on active duty with the US Army. He is the New York Times bestselling author of nine novels, including The Ten Thousand, Team Yankee, God's Children and Dead Hand. He lives in Leavenworth, Kansas. CHAPTER 1West BankFor the Israeli soldiers belonging to Isaac Mofaz's squad, the drudgery and monotonous repetition that manning a checkpoint entailed often proved to be nothing short of maddening. It was far worse than normal guard duty. With the exception of casting a leery eye upon the odd character who lingered too long in close proximity to one's post, an armed sentinel standing watch had little to do. Checkpoints were a different matter all together. From the moment one assumed his tour until the next relief showed up, a soldier at a checkpoint had to be on his toes as he dealt with endless lines of impatient and sullen civilians anxious to get on with their daily chores.The company to which Mofaz's squad belonged was responsible for a stretch of road in the West Bank that lay between an ancient Palestinian town and a refugee camp. In an effort to block the flow of arms and explosives between the two a wide antivehicle ditch had been dug right in the middle of the road forcing anyone who desired to go from one site to the other to do so on foot. While militarily sound, the obstacle came to be hated by both sides. To the residents of the refugee camp who relied upon the shops and marketplace in the town and the businessmen in the town who depended upon the cheap labor that came from the camp, the antivehicle ditch was more than an inconvenience. It was an open wound, another painful reminder that they were little more than victims of an age-old conflict that defied all logic and resolution. For the soldiers charged with manning the checkpoint at the footbridge that straddled the ditch, it meant dealing with people who made little effort to conceal their seething contempt and hatred for them.Mofaz and the men in his squad had no sympathy for the Palestinians. To a man each and every one of them knew someone who had suffered the loss of a friend or family member to a terrorist attack. Mofaz himself was an uncle to a girl who had lost both legs before she was even old enough to walk on them. It was the memories of such horrors that spurred him and his squad to carry out their dreary and irksome duties with a greater degree of vigor and thoroughness than circumstances called for.This routine never varied. Over time the faces of the people coming and going assumed a sameness that dulled the senses, made the long hours longer, and engendered an air of indifference within the Israelis when dealing with the Palestinians who had no choice but to endure whatever treatment the soldiers were in the mood to serve up. Civilian foot traffic coming from the refugee camp wishing to cross the bridge queued up along the road behind a white "call forward" line painted on the pavement thirty meters away from where the checkpoint was located at midspan. The actual checkpoint itself was a sandbag bunker. Standing a little over three meters high, it had assumed an air of permanence, just like the Israeli soldiers who occupied it. At the base of the bunker a trio of soldiers inspected all ID cards and searched every parcel, package, and bag carried by each and every Palestinian going from the refugee camp to the town.The procedure was the same regardless of age or gender. While one Israeli soldier took the ID card being offered by the Palestinian and compared the photo on it to the face, a second patted the civilian down and riffled through any bags or packages they might be carrying. The third member of this party stood with his back against the sandbag wall of the bunker, cradling his weapon in his arms with the thumb of his right hand resting on the weapon's safety as he watched both his comrades and the Palestinian before them. Within the sandbag bunker two more members of the duty squad provided backup for the soldiers who were in continuous contact with the Palestinians. This was where Sergeant Isaac Mofaz normally stood his watch. When standing on the firing step within the bunker he could look out over the heads of his own men and see what was going on at the checkpoint as well as beyond the call forward line. If something happened, which never had during any of his tours of duty here, there was a radio within the emplacement that he could use to call for assistance that would come in the form of a platoon-sized ready reaction force located in a fortified compound little more than five kilometers away. Until that help arrived Mofaz's squad would be on its own.This by no means meant that they were helpless. On the contrary, Mofaz's squad was armed to the teeth. In addition to their own individual weapons there was a 7.62 mm machine gun mounted on the parapet. From there it had a clear field of fire that swept an area well beyond the call forward line. At the foot of the bridge on the near side of the ditch facing the town was the squad's armored personnel carrier or APC. Like their comrades in the bunker on the bridge the driver and a junior NCO stood ready with their American built M-113 armored personnel carrier throughout the entire tour of duty watching over a second trio of soldiers as they checked IDs and searched packages of the Palestinians approaching the bridge from that direction. To provide covering fire for them the two soldiers manning the APC relied upon the M-2 Heavy Barrels .50-caliber machine gun mounted on their vehicle. In addition to laying down suppressive fire using a weapon capable of spewing out slugs measuring half an inch in width at a rate of up to 450 per minute, the crew of the M-113 also had to be ready to rush forward onto the narrow bridge itself if the situation really got out of hand and it proved necessary to retrieve their comrades.Day in, day out, the Israelis were there, executing their assigned duties while bearing up as best they could under the blistering afternoon sun or bitter cold of night. Like the demeanor of the people passing back and forth over the bridge, their presence assumed an irritating sameness that was almost painful to endure. As noisome as these mindless and routine duties were for the Israeli soldiers who performed them, in the eyes of some they paled in comparison to what the people who had to pass through the checkpoint suffered. They were the ones who experienced the degradation of being hassled and harassed in this manner on a daily basis by soldiers as they tried to go about their business in the town or return to their homes in the refugee camp. Few of the residents of the camp had a refrigerator that could hold more than a day or two's perishables. This meant that someone in every family living there had to cross the bridge that separated them from the marketplace in the town almost on a daily basis. One very vocal resident compared the experience of living like this to trying to breathe with an Israeli boot planted squarely on their throats.Heaped upon inconvenience was humiliation. To the Palestinians the checkpoint was more than another nuisance imposed upon them by a people they saw as an enemy. It was a physical reminder that they were little more than hostages within their own homeland. To them the soldiers were an alien presence in their midst, a harsh reminder that they had no control over their own lives or futures.All of this contributed to the atmosphere that was both tense and volatile. The Israeli soldiers didn't want to be in the West Bank and the Palestinians didn't want them there. As so often happens when a situation such as this exists there were some who were eager to do more than simply bemoan their fate. And just as there always seemed to be men and women ready and willing to take action, there were those ready to provide them with the means of doing so.One such man was Syed Amama. It hadn't taken much to convince the young Palestinian student to act. Like most of his young companions he could recite without hesitation a litany of grievances that had become little more than a fixture of the rhetoric that passed for political discourse between Muslims and Jews. He could lay out in detail the chronology of events that led to the current sad state of affairs and explain why all blame belonged to the Jews.Just as the driving force behind the willingness of Mofaz and his men kept them at their duty, Syed's uncompromising hatred of the Jews sprang from the sort of truth that no one outside the region dared to admit. It was simply the way things were. Syed was a Palestinian. From birth he had been taught to hate the Jews. Throughout his childhood the notion that they were evil incarnate was hammered home to him and his compatriots every time the Israelis launched a foray into the Palestinian areas of the West Bank to bulldoze the homes of suspected terrorists. The lingering stench of death that freely mixed with the pungent odor of diesel fumes thrown off by Israeli tanks created a terrible resolve within Syed and others like him that could only be assuaged by the total eradication of his hereditary foe. Though his education had prepared him for entry into a university in Egypt, the circumstances of his people lured him to follow another path, one that promised to be a more violent, far less enlightened future, and incredibly short. Rather than becoming a teacher, a well-spring of knowledge, Syed had chosen martyrdom.The path to this glorious end was easily found. In Syed's case, it led him to the doorstep of a shadowy organization known as the Palestinian Liberation Army. Like the al-Aqsa Brigade, Hezbollah, and Hamas, the PLA had but one goal: the destruction of Israel. And like its sister organizations, its main weapon was terror. The PLA cell or squad that Syed became a part of was made up entirely of impatient young men such as himself, Palestinians who saw themselves as patriots. To a man they believed they had both a political mandate and a sacred duty to use direct action to liberate their land and redress the wrongs that the Jews had visited upon their people. That this action might entail his own death as well as those of other Palestinians who did not share his ardent convictions did not matter to Syed. After suffering under the daily humiliations that the Israelis inflicted ...

They Are Soldiers Coyle (More Than Courage) chills with a sometimes clumsily written but disturbingly plausible story about a Virginia National Guard unit facing the threat of biological weapons in a security zone between Israelis and a new Palestinian state. Coyle narrates from numerous perspectives, including that of Guard memberspostmen, volunteer firefightersfrom tiny Bedlow, Va., and the military officers commanding their unit. In the Middle East, Coyle also enters the minds of Syed Amama, a young Palestinian suicide bomber who miraculously survived a successful mission, and Hammed Kamel, a microbiologist determined to rid the new state of its American and Israeli scourge. Chapters about the American deployment are heartfelt but boilerplate, as husbands leave pregnant wives and Coyle describes in excessive detail the heroic patriotism of the military men and the complexities of the U.S. military situation. But a series of taut chapters in which the Americans come face to face with another suicide bomber raises the tension and the stakes, and the stirring climax describes a dangerous raid on Kamel's weapons lab after Amama manages to infect some of the guardsmen with a deadly biological agent. The revolving-character door may leave readers dizzy by the time they reach the climax, but for those who don't mind a heavy hand and a bit of excess patriotism, this is a solid read.

CHAPTER 1West BankFor the Israeli soldiers belonging to Isaac Mofaz's squad, the drudgery and monotonous repetition that manning a checkpoint entailed often proved to be nothing short of maddening. It was far worse than normal guard duty. With the exception of casting a leery eye upon the odd character who lingered too long in close proximity to one's post, an armed sentinel standing watch had little to do. Checkpoints were a different matter all together. From the moment one assumed his tour until the next relief showed up, a soldier at a checkpoint had to be on his toes as he dealt with endless lines of impatient and sullen civilians anxious to get on with their daily chores.The company to which Mofaz's squad belonged was responsible for a stretch of road in the West Bank that lay between an ancient Palestinian town and a refugee camp. In an effort to block the flow of arms and explosives between the two a wide antivehicle ditch had been dug right in the middle of the road forcing anyone who desired to go from one site to the other to do so on foot. While militarily sound, the obstacle came to be hated by both sides. To the residents of the refugee camp who relied upon the shops and marketplace in the town and the businessmen in the town who depended upon the cheap labor that came from the camp, the antivehicle ditch was more than an inconvenience. It was an open wound, another painful reminder that they were little more than victims of an age-old conflict that defied all logic and resolution. For the soldiers charged with manning the checkpoint at the footbridge that straddled the ditch, it meant dealing with people who made little effort to conceal their seething contempt and hatred for them.Mofaz and the men in his squad had no sympathy for the Palestinians. To a man each and every one of them knew someone who had suffered the loss of a friend or family member to a terrorist attack. Mofaz himself was an uncle to a girl who had lost both legs before she was even old enough to walk on them. It was the memories of such horrors that spurred him and his squad to carry out their dreary and irksome duties with a greater degree of vigor and thoroughness than circumstances called for.This routine never varied. Over time the faces of the people coming and going assumed a sameness that dulled the senses, made the long hours longer, and engendered an air of indifference within the Israelis when dealing with the Palestinians who had no choice but to endure whatever treatment the soldiers were in the mood to serve up. Civilian foot traffic coming from the refugee camp wishing to cross the bridge queued up along the road behind a white "call forward" line painted on the pavement thirty meters away from where the checkpoint was located at midspan. The actual checkpoint itself was a sandbag bunker. Standing a little over three meters high, it had assumed an air of permanence, just like the Israeli soldiers who occupied it. At the base of the bunker a trio of soldiers inspected all ID cards and searched every parcel, package, and bag carried by each and every Palestinian going from the refugee camp to the town.The procedure was the same regardless of age or gender. While one Israeli soldier took the ID card being offered by the Palestinian and compared the photo on it to the face, a second patted the civilian down and riffled through any bags or packages they might be carrying. The third member of this party stood with his back against the sandbag wall of the bunker, cradling his weapon in his arms with the thumb of his right hand resting on the weapon's safety as he watched both his comrades and the Palestinian before them. Within the sandbag bunker two more members of the duty squad provided backup for the soldiers who were in continuous contact with the Palestinians. This was where Sergeant Isaac Mofaz normally stood his watch. When standing on the firing step within the bunker he could look out over the heads of his own men and see what was going on at the checkpoint as well as beyond the call forward line.

Safety 1st Travel System Ivy Cottage

Imagine that the sun is out, you've finally managed to pack up your infant and all her necessities, and you are now on the way to the park for an invigorating walk with your baby. But by the time you reach the park, your baby has fallen asleep! If you unstrap her from her car seat, you'll wake her and risk a crying fit. But do you really want to sacrifice your walk and just sit in the hot parking lot so she can sleep? If you have the Safety 1st Travel System, you'll never have to make that choice. This unique and convenient system is designed so that you don't have to disturb your baby or give up that sunny afternoon walk -- or grocery shopping, for that matter. The Safety 1st Travel System includes a sturdy stroller and a rear-facing infant car seat that doubles as an infant carrier, which easily and quietly pops out of your car and into the stroller, without disturbing your baby. A sturdy stroller combined with a rear-facing car seat and infant carrier. View larger. A handy storage pocket can hold diaper bags, toys, and the adapter bar. View larger. The easy-to-install adapter bar provides added security for your infant carrier. View larger. A Safe, Convenient and Economical Choice It seems like babies outgrow their clothes and toys in the blink of an eye. But with the Travel System, even when your baby eventually outgrows the infant seat -- which she can use from the day of her birth until her first birthday -- she can still use the stroller into her third year -- making this system a versatile, economical choice. For new parents seeking the ultimate in safety and convenience, the Safety 1st Travel System is ideal for easy and secure transportation of your infant. You can go more places, more easily, with your new baby -- and you will feel safer carrying your smaller, vulnerable infant in the padded, protected seat. Simply install the included car seat base in your car. It is designed to work with either seat belts or the LATCH system that is available in newer vehicles. The infant seat snaps easily in and out of the base so it can be transferred to the stroller, and with its adjustable handlebar, it is designed to be carried easily on your arm. The infant seat features lightweight, sturdy plastic construction, easy-to-clean fabric, and an adjustable sun shade that's useful both in the stroller and in the car. The Stroller: Lightweight, Sturdy, and Fun The stroller, with its lightweight aluminum and plastic frame, and large front wheels, is easy to maneuver, even on rougher surfaces. It folds up easily -- in one step and with one hand! -- into a convenient freestanding position, and is light enough to carry with one hand -- an essential feature for any parent who usually has the other arm occupied by a child. The parent tray provides room for a cup of coffee for both you and your partner, and includes a handy area to hold anything from your keys to a blueberry muffin. During the early months, before your child can sit independently, you'll want to use the stroller with the infant seat. But as your child gets older, she will be able to sit in the stroller, facing forward, without the infant seat. And the footrest and seatback can be easily adjusted to accommodate your child as she grows. The Ultimate Test Drive The versatility of this infant seat gets an "A+" from us. It is so much easier to put a young infant, who cannot yet hold up her head, into the infant seat first, and then snap it into the car -- rather than trying to safely maneuver her into a permanently-installed car seat. And we found that the infant seat will also fit nicely into many shopping carts at the grocery store. The stroller, which required minimal assembly, was also easy to use. We loved its lightweight design, and also the fact that the seatback can be adjusted to a horizontal position, allowing your older baby to sleep more comfortably. While we discovered this stroller to be best used on paved surfaces, we found that the larger front wheels made it easier to navigate gravel or grassy paths than other comparable models. One minor drawback was that using the stroller with the infant seat requires an "adapter bar," which is included, to be inserted across the front of the stroller. This add an extra step to the process and means that the stroller cannot be used in the face-forward style. (Once the baby is old enough to sit in the stroller without the infant seat, you don't need the adapter bar.) The stroller does, however, include a storage pocket for the adapter bar to minimize the possibility of misplacing or losing it. Also, while the stroller's handlebar features comfortable, soft grips, it is placed in a rather high position and is not adjustable. Pros: Safe, sturdy infant seat conveniently doubles as a car seat and infant carrier Makes it easier to do errands with baby Lightweight stroller is easy to maneuver, transport, and store Can be used by your child into her third year Cons: Stroller's high handlebar position may be uncomfortable for some users Stroller "adapter bar" is inconvenient and difficult to use A comfortable and convenient travel system with features for both baby and parent. The Safety 1st Travel System combines the Designer 22 Infant car seat with the "1 Hand Fold 'n Stand" Stroller for the family on the go.
