<p>Hollywood movies often portray gay people as being in some sense monstrous. This volume focuses on several filmmakers who have used the trope of the homosexual as monster in a way that subverts traditional cinema. Their movies reveal that the monster can be powerful and attractive, thereby showing gay people a way to claim power from being thought of as outcasts and obviating the notion of fitting in. This study will appeal to film scholars and to those interested in the portrayal of homosexuals in the media.</p>

<p>South Stoke is a Thameside village in the county of Oxfordshire, of about 500 inhabitants and has been a rural community for centuries. Over the last thirty to forty years one of the village groups, "The South Stoke Historical Society", has had a number of incarnations and several attempts have been made by various members and contributors to record the past history of the village. About three attempts almost reached publication but the energy required for the last mile of such an endeavour never quite made the goal. In 2017 another committee was formed with the normal objectives of a volunteer village society but with a mission to finally complete the task of publishing this book by bringing together all previous drafts, distilling them into one document which has been verified as to accuracy and sources. In addition, the text has been brought right up to date as much had happened in recent times. The photo archive has also been brought up to date. Readers interested in local social history from medieval times to the present can dip into this book as it is written as a series of essays and is not a chronological history. All village life is here from agriculture to schooling to church to railways and even a massive fire in 1905 which but for the efforts of many could have destroyed the village. This book will be of interest to any local history group both for its content and as a model for producing their local story.</p>

What do you need to make a baby? A willing partner? A good sense of timing? Some wine maybe? A nice meal and some amorous music? Not always. There are times when all the romance (and luck) just simply will not do. In those times, what you need is a specimen pot, a heap of drugs, so many ultra-sound scans that your wife or partner begins to glow in the dark and an unfeasibly large amount of tea. Providing a rare yet enlightening male perspective on the world of IVF, 'Test tubes and testosterone' is one man's experience of infertility and the IVF journey he embarked on with his wife in order to start a family. Told with humour, wit and insight, this book sheds light on issues that can be hard to discuss even with the closest of friends or relatives, making it a valuable book for anyone contemplating or going through IVF.

One of the most heart-searching and probing words that the Apostle Paul ever wrote are these which he had spoken to the Church at Galatia in the first century: “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” Galatians 6:14. Truly what Jesus actually taught in “His Olivet Discourse” in Matthew 24 was not written for endless speculation, but rather, it is a concise and very startling time-line that every person on the Planet can readily grasp … once they see it. For those who are called to be watchmen, this book is your Field Manual; for those who just have to know how things will turn out in the end, this book is the Romance Story you've been looking for; for those who need a safe guide to walk them through the chaos and confusion that will cause millions to stumble in the dark, this book leads you to the truth of the Word, which is your Assurance Policy.
