Hi All,
The Matter Myth
In this sweeping survey, acclaimed science writers Paul Davies and John Gribbin provide a complete overview of advances in the study of physics that have revolutionized modern science. From the weird world of quarks and the theory of relativity to the latest ideas about the birth of the cosmos, the authors find evidence for a massive paradigm shift. Developments in the studies of black holes, cosmic strings, solitons, and chaos theory challenge common-sense concepts of space, time, and matter, and demand a radically altered and more fully unified view of the universe.

Hi All,
Worms To Catch “I was never going to sleep in and take it easy, there were worms to catch.”

Breaking records on the world’s biggest Wall of Death, cycling 2,745 miles across the length of the United States (while sleeping rough), attempting
to be the fastest person ever on two wheels and travelling to Latvia to investigate his family’s roots, it’s been a busy year for Guy Martin. There’s been
some thrilling racing too, including wild Harley choppers on dirt and turbo-charged Transit vans through the Nevada desert. And don’t forget there’s
the day job to get back to in North Lincolnshire – the truck yard and the butty van.

Guy has done more in one year than most people do in a lifetime, and with his gift for story-telling, he takes you with him to the outer limits of
human endurance, and on a dizzying adrenalin high, all in a day’s work.

Hi All,
Crimson Peak(Via Sky Cinema) A somewhat disappointing Horror IMPO may be due to the review that Collider gave this that I watched in
the lead up to the cinematic release which was rather good and may have lead to my higher expectations, but hey everybody’s different. While I
do think the CGI is excellent the story is drawn out at times, just a basic horror none the less watchable if you like the genre. just don’t expect
to much from it horror wise from this usually good director Guillermo del Toro..:rolleyes:

Starring:-Mia Wasikowska,Jessica Chastain,Tom Hiddleston,Charlie Hunnam,Jim Beaver,Burn Gorman,Jonathan Hyde,Leslie Hope,Sofia Wells,
Doug Jones and Javier Botet.

After marrying the charming and seductive Sir Thomas Sharpe, young Edith (Mia Wasikowska) finds herself swept away to his remote gothic mansion
in the English hills. Also living there is Lady Lucille, Thomas’ alluring sister and protector of her family’s dark secrets. Able to communicate with the
dead, Edith tries to decipher the mystery behind the ghostly visions that haunt her new home. As she comes closer to the truth, Edith may learn that
true monsters are made of flesh and blood.
