Summary

If you go into the woods, you're in for a dark surprise. 
 
Thirty years ago, three girls followed a stranger into the woods. Only two returned. The surviving pair have never been able to remember what happened or what the fate of the third girl was. Local rumours talk of hippies and drugs and mystic rituals, but no one has learned the truth.
 
This story is just what Rowan Blake needs. He's in debt, his journalistic career is in tatters – as well as his damaged body – and he's retreated to the Lake District to write. Yet even Rowan isn't prepared for the evil he is about to unearth, for the secrets that have been buried in that wood for far too long...

    The Human City - Urbanism for...

    The author of The Coming of Neo-Feudalism and The New Class Conflict challenges conventions of urban planning. Around the globe, most new urban development has adhered to similar tenets: tall structures, small units, and high density. In The Human City, Joel Kotkin―called “America’s uber-geographer” by David Brooks of the New York Times―questions these nearly ubiquitous practices, suggesting that they do not consider the needs and desires of the vast majority of people. Built environments, Kotkin argues, must reflect the preferences of most people―even if that means lower-density development. The Human City ponders the purpose of the city and investigates the factors that drive most urban development today. Armed with his own astute research, a deep-seated knowledge of urban history, and a sound grasp of economic, political, and social trends, Kotkin pokes holes in what he calls the “retro-urbanist” ideology and offers a refreshing case for dispersion centered on human values. This book is not anti-urban, but it does advocate a greater range of options for people to live the way they want at all stages of their lives.Praise for The Human City “Kotkin . . . presents the most cogent, evidence-based and clear-headed exposition of the pro-suburban argument . . . . In pithy, readable sections, each addressing a single issue, he debunks one attack on the suburbs after another. But he does more than that. He weaves an impressive array of original observations about cities into his arguments, enriching our understanding of what cities are about and what they can and must become.” —Shlomo Angel, Wall Street Journal “The most eloquent expression of urbanism since Jane Jacobs’s The Death and Life of Great American Cities. Kotkin writes with a strong sense of place; he recognizes that the geography and traditions of a city create the contours of its urbanity.” —Ronnie Wachter, Chicago Tribune

    The Science Of Physics - Proof...

    It all started with the discovery of the God Particle.  From here, we can infer that the universe was created for a reason.  Moving along to the next most important discovery in Science, we learned that when electrons become entangled – like two people meeting at a bar – they may fall in love and never forget about their new lover.  When the state of one of these sub-atomic life forms changes, the other ‘married’ partner changes its state to counter-act their lover.  This happens regardless of distance with zero time expanded.  Clearly something magical is happening.  Einstein called this ‘Spooky action at a distance’ and refused to believe it possible, until evidence proved that it was not only possible, but shown to happen over and over in the laboratory.  Future computers – Quantum Computers – are being designed today to exploit this new knowledge about our most basic and fundamental force of Electro-magnetism.With the invention of a new number - Zero (i) - we now have the ability to formulate the next equation in our comprehensive understanding of the universe.  0(i) = U or Zero to the power of Infinity = any number.  Any number in the universe both negative and positive, the most extremely small things all the way up to the most extremely large.  This is the connecting force that we've been searching for, the Unified Field Theory that Einstein was looking for until the day he died  Is it 'The Force' in Star Wars?  That's for you to figure out.  Maybe it's worth a shot.

    The Blackpool Streamlined Trams

    “What a variety are pictured here! Double deck ‘balloon’ cars, single deckers including open topped cars and various illuminated cars, a specialty of the town.” —York Model Engineers newsletter 
     
    In the early 1930s the tramcar in Blackpool was at a crossroads; the system needed investment in both new track and new trams while there was a serious threat that the “town” routes might be converted to bus operation. 
     
    The appointment of Walter Luff as the new general manager was, however, to prove a turning point. Working closely with English Electric, based in nearby Preston, Luff developed a series of streamlined trams—both single-deck and double-deck—that were to revolutionize the town’s tramway. By the end of 1930s, the corporation had acquired more than 100 new trams—the majority built by English Electric but with twenty coming from Brush—that ensured the survival not only of the key route along the Promenade to Fleetwood but also of the bulk of the “town” routes. 
     
    Over the next seventy years these trams were to form the cornerstone of the Blackpool system. It was only with the modernization of the system in the first decade of the 20th century that, finally, they became largely obsolete but still, as part of the heritage fleet, they remain very much part of the contemporary Blackpool scene. 
     
    This book examines the history of Blackpool’s streamlined trams of the 1930s from development through to preservation. 
     
    “An important addition to the more straightforward business and picture book histories of the Blackpool tram network which local historians and industrial archaeologists will find of great value aiding future studies of this subject.” —Transactions of the Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian Society
