Tar Heel Traveler Eats : Food Journeys across North Carolina (149300638X)

Scott Mason is the Tar Heel Traveler and he loves to eat hot dogs, cheeseburgers, barbecue, biscuits, and ice cream served in crumbling cinder-block buildings and ramshackle dives along the back roads of North Carolina. As a full-time feature reporter for WRAL-TV in Raleigh since 2007, Scott has discovered that North Carolina is filled with many amusing characters and out-of-the-way places, all of which are part of his Tar Heel Traveler television segment that airs Monday through Thursday on WRAL's 5:30 pm newscast. The most popular stories are always about the hole-in-the-wall hot dog dives, cheeseburger joints, barbecue places, and ice cream parlors he has visited. He has featured dozens of such places on TV and now on paper he expands each story. Each chapter of Tar Heel Traveler Eats focuses on a particular restaurant as seen through the eyes the reporter who stumbles upon these classic dives. He peppers each chapter with dialogue and descriptive detail that includes the often

Design Fur die Reale Welt : Anleitungen Fur Eine Humane Okologie Und Sozialen Wandel (3211788921)

Victor Papaneks Design for the Real World" z hlt international zu den meist gelesenen Designb chern aller Zeiten. Das Buch basiert auf dem Erwachen eines alternativen Designbegriffs vor dem Hintergrund des aufkommenden Postfordismus und der New Social Movements. Neben einer breiten Kultur- und Konsumkritik greift Papanek soziale und kologische Prinzipien f r eine partizipatorische, dezentralisierte und demokratisierte Designpraxis auf. Verst rkt durch die aktuelle Auseinandersetzung mit Fragen des Klima- und Umweltschutzes, gewinnt Papaneks Werk zunehmend an Bedeutung. Kaum eine Literaturempfehlungsliste im Bereich des Sozialen und Kritischen Design kommt derzeit ohne seine Schriften aus. Erstmals 1970 in Schwedisch erschienen, folgten bersetzungen in ber 20 Sprachen; mit der mittlerweile vergriffenen deutschen bersetzung war Papanek Zeit seines Lebens unzufrieden. Kurz vor seinem Tod im Januar 1998 wurde eine von Papanek akkordierte Neu bersetzung begonnen, deren Ver ffentlichung

The Ronde : Inside the World's Toughest Bike Race (9781471169274)

'It wasn't a race but a war game' Bernard Hinault 'Without question, the hardest one-day bike race ever created' George Hincapie The Tour of Flanders - known to cycling fans as the Ronde - is the biggest one-day bike race in the world. It is a potent mix of grit, cobbles, steep climbs, narrow roads, national pride, beer, brutal weather and the maddest, most passionate fans in the sport. It's the Tour de France boiled down into a single day of non-stop action - the Belgian equivalent of the Grand National, Wimbledon and the FA Cup final. And there's yet more to it than that. Edward Pickering tells the story of the Tour of Flanders, its history, culture and meaning, through the prism of the 2011 Ronde, an incredible edition that was one of the most exciting bike races of the past half-century. He weaves the narrative of that day into a broader study of the race, with eyewitness accounts from the key locations of the Ronde and dozens of interviews with the rid

A Concise History of New South Wales (9781925868395)

After an outline of pre-colonial times, this book presents a concise historical account of the early days of the NSW colony and how it has progressed since those beginnings to the current day. Each section focuses on a different cultural or historical aspect which is examined thoroughly from the beginnings of British settlement. The complete development of the state is told, weaving through these various areas of focus, along with all the important people and events. Remarkable pioneers have helped shape not only the state but the country as a whole: the voices of those prior to Cook's explorations are of course silent, but the stories of those since make fascinating reading. No such work would be complete without acknowledging and exploring the exceptional role played by the Indigenous population. There are copious references made to the valuable contributions they made, and continue to make. This history looks back at all aspects of the development of the country's earliest a

The hauntingly prophetic classic novel set in a not-too-distant future where books are burned by a special task force of firemen. Over 1 million copies sold in the UK. Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to burn books, which are forbidden, being the source of all discord and unhappiness. Even so, Montag is unhappy; there is discord in his marriage. Are books hidden in his house? The Mechanical Hound of the Fire Department, armed with a lethal hypodermic, escorted by helicopters, is ready to track down those dissidents who defy society to preserve and read books. The classic novel of a post-literate future, 'Fahrenheit 451' stands alongside Orwell's '1984' and Huxley's 'Brave New World' as a prophetic account of Western civilization's enslavement by the media, drugs and conformity. Bradbury's powerful and poetic prose combines with uncanny insight into the potential of technology to create a novel which over fifty years from first publication, sti
