An affordable, lightweight sports car suitable for racing, the MG TC launched the sports car scene in postwar America. A wave of drivers first competed on the track in these and the later TD, TF and MGA models during the 1950s, many of them eventually moving up to Porsches, Alfa Romeos, Jaguars and Ferraris. Eighty such drivers, from the famous (e.g., Phil Hill, John Fitch, David E. Davis, Jr.) to lesser known men and women with equally vivid stories, are profiled in this book, which presents many of their recollections from firsthand interviews alongside a wealth of period photographs.

This explosive Metal Gear Solid novel ventures beyond the thrilling videogame and delves into the dark heart of Solid Snake’s world! Highly skilled former FOXHOUND agent Solid Snake is called out of retirement to do what he does best–neutralize a crisis of epic proportions. A deadly team of renegade FOXHOUND operatives has taken over the nuclear disposal facility on Shadow Moses Island in the icy Aleutians. If their demands aren’t met, a powerful, top-secret weapon will be unleashed upon the world. Solid Snake’s mission is to breach the heavily fortified base to rescue hostages and to destroy the superweapon. His only obstacles are brainwashed commandos, DNA-enhanced troops, and six first-rate killers with extraordinary abilities. All alone in hostile territory, armed with nothing but his wits, Snake has only a snowball’s chance in hell of taking out his target and keeping nuclear nightfall from descending on the earth. But nothing is as it seems. Somebody is hiding something. Somebody has a hidden agenda. And somebody wants Snake to learn secrets about his dark past–secrets that would shake any man to his core.

A great little sports car race took place on an island in Lake Erie, offshore of Sandusky, Ohio. The drivers came on ferry boats to compete for silver cups in an age when there were no sponsors and no prize money. The drivers were car salesmen, stock brokers, engineers, printers, etc. Often, the cars they raced were those they drove as daily transportation: MGs, Porsches, Triumphs, Alfas and others. In this well-illustrated history (full color throughout the ebook edition), drivers, officials, mechanics and spectators share their stories. The text paints a vivid picture of the sports car racing scene in post-war America.

Discover your unique blueprint to build a business and life you love. Human Design is nine different modalities built into one system to catapult entrepreneurs and their businesses forward by giving them the insight they need to understand themselves, their clients and how they are designed to operate in the world. Entrepreneurs are exhausted from the trial and error of the one-size-fits all advice for building a business, which doesn’t take into consideration who they are as a person, their unique strengths, and how they authentically want to show up in support of their clients. This ultimately leaves entrepreneurs feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and battling the dreaded burnout. Many secretly want to burn it all to the ground and start over again. Human Design For Business shows how to understand one’s personality, decision making style, energy & body management, as well as how best to process information, how best to interact with others, and how to cultivate an aligned and joyful personalized business ecosystem. Ditch the soul-sucking “shoulds” of traditional business advice and take a journey into the depths of yourself to understand what makes you unique, so you can learn, leverage and live life in alignment with who you are meant to be.
