British and European soccer attendances from boom to bust and back again. The stories behind the crowds in all 55 UEFA countries including lower divisions and non-league. Records, stats and history of the big - and not so big - games. David Ross, author of the acclaimed 'ROAR of the Crowd,' the definitive history of Scottish football attendances, has now turned his attention to Europe. This book looks at the history of league (and in many cases non-league) attendances in every European country. From the great post-war boom to the decline of the 1980s and the subsequent rise again in the past two decades, he traces the patterns of each country's progress.
The Skater Who Stole My Shoelaces
Shane is a nerdy outcast who loves reading and fantasizing about medieval adventures. Danny is a skateboarding socialite who is always getting himself into trouble by being very mischievous. Together, the two of them uncover a secret that could change the world, and they are forced to set off on an adventure through space and time. Along the way, they encounter ancient warriors, fire breathing dragons, mystical prophecies, secret societies, advanced technologies such as time travel and teleportation devices, and many more life altering things.
Hunter Mccain and the Cookbook
Remember middle school? Being afraid to wear the wrong clothes, scared of saying something stupid in class or awkward attempts at that first kiss? How about parents who don't understand? Or, teachers who put you to sleep in 0.2 seconds? Hunter McCain is living through all this and much more as an eighth grader at Franklin Middle School. Add in a cookbook filled with recipes far more interesting then lasagna or a casserole. Love potions, strength formulas, and invisibility are just some of the entrees offered up in the archaic treasure. But these recipes may not be the tastiest; brownies sprinkled with toe nails, fudge using arm pit hair, or gum made from spider webs could just ruin an appetite. Come on the zaniest adventure of a life time as Hunter and his friends use the cook book to encounter bullies, pretty girls, school projects, a dodge ball tournament, parents and even bank robbers.

In Confronting the Storm, David passionately argues for a shift from the predominant legacy thinking that struggles with our greatest challenges to a regenerative and collaborative mindset within leaders. Humanity is at a fork in the road so new, creative, and urgent leadership is essential. For us all and future generations to be able to thrive on Spaceship Earth, this book makes for compelling reading." –David Houle, MD, The Sarasota Institute and 5x TEDx speaker, USTraditional leadership wisdom is buckling and failing.Leaders are not only grappling with the pandemic, but a greater challenge awaits them – a storm of complex social, environmental, and economic issues that is leaving organizations extremely vulnerable.As daunting as it may feel, there are substantial opportunities to thrive.David provocatively argues that, to successfully deal with the storm, we must accept that the leadership styles that have been celebrated for centuries are now an obstacle to progress. He explores the storm-defying alternatives: key skills and traits that are now crucial for regenerating lives, livelihoods, and the planet, pointing the way to a more collaborative, innovative, successful future for leaders and organizations.This argument is amplified by some of the most inspiring global leaders who are successfully confronting the storm – including a former Prime Minister, former Foreign Minister, one of Fortune magazines '50 Greatest Leaders', and more.What will your legacy be?
