The Man behind the Mike

The Man behind the Mike

Quiller Publishing Ltd

Mike Tucker was born into a life of farming and horses. His passion and hard work enabled him to progress from international groom to successful international event rider, top level Eventing official and television commentator. The pinnacle of Mike's career as a commentator was covering Nick Skelton's Gold Medal at the Rio Olympics in 2016 for the BBC. In `The Man Behind the Mike' we learn about Mike's family history and the connection with the Badminton Estate where his grandfather farmed; The Beaufort Pony Club, a huge influence in his life with many top level riders being members; a visit to Australia, staying with the Roycroft family, which proved to be a pivotal moment in his efforts to become a successful event rider; and about Mike's second place at Badminton, which laid the foundations of his credibility as a rider and commentator. The `voice behind the microphone' had the experience and knowledge to commentate with authority and to command respect from the listening public at venues of not just horse trials but also show jumping, dressage, and shows in general. The wealth of experience and lifetime involvement in the world of equestrian sport has enabled him to travel all over the world meeting many different people and sharing his expertise. We are told many funny, revealing, fascinating and sometimes sad anecdotes of his experiences of the successes and failures along the way and we are given a true insight into the real stories behind the headlines, and `The Man Behind the Mike'.

The Cinema of Mike Leigh

The Cinema of Mike Leigh

Garry Watson

Wallflower Press
2004
sidottu
A keen observer of manners and mores, Mike Leigh has been hailed as a celebrator of "ordinary" people, yet it wasn't until relatively recently that audiences have been able to appreciate the full body of his work. In discussing all his films from Bleak Moments and High Hopes through Naked, the Oscar-nominated Secrets and Lies and Topsy Turvy to All or Nothing, Garry Watson considers this claim, examining the films' influence and their effect. At the same time, he takes on the very concepts of "the real" and "the ordinary" in regard to Leigh's work, challenging much perceived thinking among critics and moviegoers alike. To what category does the director's work really belong? Is it British Realism? The avant garde? Through careful textual detail and wider social and literary comparison with the works of Charles Dickens and T.S. Eliot, he argues ultimately for the aritistic and cultural significance of Leigh's work as one of Britian's most respected filmmakers.

The Further Education of Mike Carter

The Further Education of Mike Carter

Richard Ayres

Legend Press Ltd
2012
pokkari
Mike Carter has been a lecturer at Streetbridge College of Further Education for 30 years. He has been the leader of the pack, scourge of college management, seducer of students, colleagues and wives of colleagues. But now, approaching 60, things are going awry. The younger lecturers are no longer in thrall to him, his powers of seduction are declining, and those whom he has offended over the years, sensing his diminishing influence, are seeking to exact revenge.Meanwhile, Marcia Martell, the young, newly appointed Principal, is determined to drag the institution into the 21st century in the face of foot-dragging by the older members of her management team and opposition from the lecturers' union. She issues a memorandum to staff imposing a new code of dress and behaviour: this is seized on by Mike Carter as an opportunity to re-assert his waning influence by leading the fight against her.However, the politics of the workplace are muddied by events in the personal lives of the protagonists, and by antagonisms and jealousies between individuals, generations and competing interest groups. When sexual tension is added to the mix, the outcome is unpredictable.The author began working in Colleges of FE in 1968. He was a lecturer, an Adult Education organiser, Head of Department and finally a Vice-Principal, before retiring in 1995.

Michigan Stories: Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw

Michigan Stories: Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw

Marc-Olivier Wahler; Carla Acevedo-Yates; Steven L. Bridges

MSU BROAD
2020
sidottu
This long overdue publication tells the story of artists Mike Kelley (1954-2012) and Jim Shaw (b. 1952), who shared a lifelong friendship and common background: an upbringing and education in the State of Michigan. Published on the occasion of the major exhibition of the same title, this catalogue is the first to place these artists' practices alongside each other in historical context, approaching their work as parallel visual meditations on Midwestern culture in particular and on American culture more broadly. The catalogue begins with their meeting at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and early collaborations, including the formation of the collective Destroy All Monsters. Branching out from there, major bodies of work from each artist are presented with a specific interest in tracing the lines of influence as rooted in the vernacular visual cultures of Michigan and the Midwest. Illustrations of the artists' source material, their individual works, and installation views from the exhibition feature prominently throughout the publication, offering readers new perspectives on the work of these seminal artists. Essays by exhibition cocurators Marc-Olivier Wahler, Carla Acevedo-Yates, and Steven L. Bridges also unpack the many narratives layered in the exhibition, including an interview with Jim Shaw.

Mad Dog responds by violently intimidating Quinton, his brother Jimmy, his girl friend Sondra and even other gang members. Detective Mike Eiser must disrupt Mad Dog's agenda, but Mad Dog's habit of using his gang members to commit chargeable crimes limits Eiser's ability to stop Mad Dog's actions.

However, his desperate plan runs head-long into a showdown with Detective Eiser and the Jericho County Sheriff's Office. Literally crawling out of a disastrous confrontation, Mad Dog attempts a home invasion to exact revenge against Quinton Thomas for rejecting him and the Raven's Claws...with completely unpredictable results. But then, Kat Thomas is a survivor, and nobody messes with her boys...especially gang members bent on recruiting them...and, if it can be proven that Quinton is Sylvester Brown's son that may help Quinton even more.
