Despite the positive qualities of the articles, I felt they were a bit repetitive, but not for any fault of the writers. It’s of which was Information Specialist. In just that there hasn’t been any major advances in touring bike design recently so there is only so much to discuss. Influenced by that capacity, I was charged with these talented people, including Sheldon Brown, Fred Meredith, Tom Shaddox, and Fred Matheny, I thought I’d try a less techni - answering questions posed to the organ - cal approach.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
