Happy Browsing & Best Wishes Vickie Star Buy BC461K2 £40 Signed by Bonnie Langford & Colin Baker. Did you know? Between 1986 & 1987, Langford played the role of Mel, companion to both the sixth and seventh Doctors in the classic science fiction series Doctor Who. She returned to the role in 1993 for Dimensions in Time, a special charity Doctor Who/EastEnders crossover episode as part of the BBC’s Children in Need. She has continued to reprise the role in several audio dramas produced by Big Finish Productions alongside the Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy Doctors. The Sixth Doctor is an incarnation of the Doctor, the protagonist of the BBC science fiction television series Doctor Who. He is portrayed by Colin Baker. Although his televisual time on the series was comparatively brief and turbulent, Baker has continued as the Sixth Doctor in Big Finish’s range of original Doctor Who audio adventures. 2 Warren House, Shearway Road, Folkestone, Kent CT19 4BF COMPBC04B Tel 01303 278137 Fax 01303 279429 Email [email protected] SERIES 4 CHECKLIST l London 2012 Olympics: Welcome l Memories: Olympic & Paralympic Games 27th July 2012 27th September 2012 ¨ BC450M GB Flag & Olympic flame, miniature sheet, Stratford ¨ BC456 Stamps, Stratford E20 postmark .................................... £20 postmark .......................................................................... £20 ¨ BC456M Miniature Sheet, Stratford E20 postmark ...................... £20 ¨ BC450 Big Ben & London Eye, stamps from miniature sheet, Stratford postmark .......................................................... £35 l Post & Go Cattle 28th September 2012 l Olympics Gold Medal Winners Collection -

    The Vampire in European and American Culture Dr. Jeff Holdeman SLAV-T230 11498 (SLAV) (please call me Jeff) SLAV-T230 11893 (HHC section) GISB East 4041 Fall 2019 812-855-5891 (office) TR 4:00–5:15 pm Office hours: Classroom: GA 0009 * Tues. and Thur. 2:45–3:45 pm in GISB 4041 carries CASE A&H, GCC; GenEd A&H, WC * and by appointment (just ask!!!) * e-mail me beforehand to reserve a time * It is always best to schedule an appointment. [email protected] [my preferred method] 812-335-9868 (home) This syllabus is available in alternative formats upon request. Overview The vampire is one of the most popular and enduring images in the world, giving rise to hundreds of monster movies around the globe every year, not to mention novels, short stories, plays, TV shows, and commercial merchandise. Yet the Western vampire image that we know from the film, television, and literature of today is very different from its eastern European progenitor. Nina Auerbach has said that "every age creates the vampire that it needs." In this course we will explore the eastern European origins of the vampire, similar entities in other cultures that predate them, and how the vampire in its look, nature, vulnerabilities, and threat has changed over the centuries. This approach will provide us with the means to learn about the geography, village and urban cultures, traditional social structure, and religions of eastern Europe; the nature and manifestations of Evil and the concept of Limited Good; physical, temporal, and societal boundaries and ritual passage that accompany them; and major historical and intellectual periods (the settlement of Europe, the Age of Reason, Romanticism, Neo-classicism, the Enlightenment, the Victorian era, up to today).

  • Scottish Disability Sport - the First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword
    Scottish Disability Sport - The First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword I was delighted to be asked by Chief Executive Gavin Macleod to record the first fifty years of Scottish Disability Sport, to mark the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Association. Initially the project was intended to be small but the more I researched, the more it brought back memories of great athletes, superb volunteers and great times. I became determined to try and do justice to as many as those great people as possible. I am certain I shall have forgotten key people in the eyes of others and if so I apologise profusely. For almost four decades SDS has been for me a way of life. The volunteers I have had the pleasure of working with for almost three decades are those I remember with great fondness, particularly during the early years. I applaud the many athletes who contributed to the rich history and success of SDS over fifty years. Outstanding volunteers like Bob Mitchell, Mary Urquhart, David Thomson, Jean Stone, Chris Cohen and Colin Rains helped to develop and sustain my passion for disability sport. I have been privileged to work with exceptional professionals like Ken Hutchison, Derek Casey, Liz Dendy, Paul Bush, Bob Price, Louise Martin, Sheila Dobie, Fiona Reid, Eddie McConnell, Gavin MacLeod, Mary Alison, Heather Lowden, Lawrie Randak, Tracey McCillen, Archie Cameron and many others whose commitment to inclusive sport has been obvious and long lasting. I thank Jean Stone, Jacqueline Lynn, Heather Lowden, Maureen Brickley and Paul Noble who acted as “readers” during the writing of the history and Norma Buchanan for administrative support at important stages.

  • Olympic Cyclist Joanna Rowsell Joins Team Action for Prudential Ridelondon-Surrey 100
    Olympic cyclist Joanna Rowsell joins Team Action for Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 Joanna Rowsell MBE, team GB cyclist, world record holder and Olympic gold medallist, will join cyclists riding for children’s charity Action Medical Research in the first Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 on Sunday 4 August. The long-distance ride, following a similar route to the London 2012 road cycling races, will be a new challenge for the 24-year-old, who is the charity’s Cycling Ambassador. She may be super-quick on a bike but the 100-mile event will be the furthest distance she has ever cycled! As the newest recruit to Team Action, Joanna will join the charity’s 131 riders in the mass participation event and hopes to finish in around five hours. The Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 aims to recreate a little piece of the magic of 2012 and will see 20,000 amateur cyclists set out from the new Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The ride follows a route along closed roads through the capital and out onto Surrey’s stunning country roads and hills before passing by the Houses of Parliament to finish on The Mall in central London. Joanna won gold in the women’s team pursuit at London 2012 and has also been national, European and world champion, as well as a world record holder for the event. Last month she added her first British Time Trial title to her impressive list of achievements. She says: "I am really looking forward to riding the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 with Action Medical Research.
