Gang Wars of the North - The Inside Story of the Deadly Battle Between Viv Graham and Lee Duffy
With a frightening capacity for extreme violence, Tyneside protection hardman Viv Graham struck fear into the hearts of his enemies, yet his benevolence to local charities and schemes to keep kids away from drugs and crime was well known. A legend in his own lifetime, he was the ultimate maverick troubleshooter whose size and ability to fight enabled him to live just as he wishes, never forgetting the deprived community he came from, who in times of need, considered him the fourth emergency service. Teeside drugs enforcer Lee Duffy had half his foot shot off in an assassination attempt and his skull beaten with a crowbar, yet his streetwise instinct remained unmatched. Proud to be known as Viv's arch enemy, Lee was feared and respected in equal measure and wanted to get out of the game for the sake of his family, but was so deeply involved that there was only one way he would ever leave...With unprecedented access to friends, family members and associates, Stephen Richards dispels many of the myths surrounding these legendary figures to create the ultimate biography of Britain's deadliest rivals.
Don Roberto, The Adventure of Being Cunninghame Graham
‘A combination of all that is best in memoir, biography and history.’ – Caroline Moorehead 'In this remarkable book... Jauncey has performed the great service of reminding us of a wonderful figure from Scotland’s recent history.' – Alexander McCall Smith It would be impossible to invent Don Roberto today – a fantastic combination of Don Quixote and Sir Gawain, Indiana Jones and the Lone Ranger. He was so multi-faceted, so complex, that every chapter in his story reveals some new and contradictory aspect of his personality. He is best known as the co-founder, with Keir Hardie, of the Scottish Labour Party, and later as the founding president of the Scottish National Party. But in a long and extraordinary life he was many other things besides.

The work of memory researchers Alan Baddeley and Graham Hitch is a prime example of the ways in which good critical thinkers approach questions and the problems they raise. In the 1960s, researchers into human memory began to understand memory as comprising not one, but two systems. The first was a short-term system handling information for mere seconds. The second was a long-term system capable of managing information indefinitely. They also discovered, however, that short-term memory was not simply a ‘filing cabinet,’ as many had thought, but was actively working on cognitive – or mental – tasks. This is how the phrase “working memory” developed. The hypothesis remained unproven, however, presenting Baddeley and Hitch with the problem of working out how to produce definitive evidence that short term memory was a working system that actively manipulated and processed information. They responded by designing a series of ten experiments aimed at showing just this – presenting the results in their 1974 article, ‘Working memory.’ The research was a masterpiece of problem-solving that proved revelatory. The authors not only generated new solutions and made sound decisions between alternative possibilities – they also showed that short-term memory is indeed an active system responsible for information processing and managing, while also influencing attention, reasoning, reading comprehension and learning.While their work has since been refined by others, Baddeley and Hitch’s problem-solving approach helped to create the dominant understanding of working memory that underpins psychological research throughout the world today.
"Flames out of control". Theologische Zeitdeutung bei Billy Graham in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Theologie - Historische Theologie, Kirchengeschichte, Note: 2,7, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Proseminararbeit werde ich die theologische Zeitdeutung Billy Grahams am Beispiel des ersten Kapitels "Flames out of control" seines Werkes "World aflame" darlegen. In diesem Buch kritisiert Billy Graham die aktuelle Situation (1965), gibt Tipps, wie man sein Leben auf Gott und Jesus Christus ausrichten kann und wie man so am Ende dieser Welt gerettet wird. Dies schmuckt er mit Beispielen aus, die komplexe theologische Ansichten leicht verstandlich machen, und erzahlt von seinen zahlreichen Erlebnissen, die er in der ganzen Welt mit vielen unterschiedlichen Menschen hatte. Im ersten Kapitel, das ich hier naher bearbeiten werde, beschreibt Graham welche Machte dafur verantwortlich sind, dass die Welt in Flammen steht. Er unterscheidet zwischen sechs Flammen, die damit drohen, die Menschheit zu zerstoren. Ich werde damit beginnen, den Autor zu biographieren und auere und innere Quellenkritik zu betreiben. Dann werde ich die einzelnen Flammen, die Graham beschreibt, analysieren, daran seine theologische Zeitdeutung darlegen und sie mit der tatsachlichen Situation vergleichen.
