“I mean....it – is – the – future. It’s safe. That’s it for me. Security. That’s it.” The developers have had their way - an old way of living has been cleared away for Water City, a futuristic, secure, development, where you can live and work and shop. Even the affordable housing is reassuringly expensive. But in the shadow of the glass and steel, some people feel like everything is being taken away. Those Who Trespass explores the differences between two groups of people; the mistrust, the fear and the tragic collision when these two groups come together. "Yer think yer safe – yer think people like me don’t exist – or yer wanna pretend I don’t – well I’m in your flat, mate!"
I was surprised when a friend told me he wasn't aware that St. Bernard had ever had a college. After thinking about it for a moment, I realized it had been almost thirty years since St. Bernard College closed its doors. That was what motivated me to write a book about my experience there. I attended St. Bernard College from August 1966 until May 1970. It was a time when St. Bernard College strived with attendance peeking during those years. Also of significance, various sports were putting St. Bernard on the map. The 1967-68 basketball team was outstanding, winning their conference championship in one of the highest scoring games in conference history. In writing the book, I mention many other things that went on there, including campus activities, other sports and the professors, priests and students of the college. The book emphasizes two primary things: that outstanding basketball team of 1967-68 of which I was a member, and the influence Coach Charles Richard had on his athletes, students and the college itself. You will take a walk down memory lane as you read about what it was like at St. Bernard College in the late Sixties.

Because only Richard Dartley, the world's most expensive assassin and the man who never misses can beat a professional terminator every bit as deadly as himself.
This book finally casts a spotlight on some short-lived and almost forgotten sitcoms--those which aired for only one single season.

Overflowing with fresh facts, interviews, photographs, and stories, nearly 300 short-lived sitcoms over a 32 year span are presented A-to-Z, whether network or syndicated, prime time or Saturday morning.

Under the editorship of Edmund Goldschmid, the Clarendon Historical Society reprinted a series of miscellaneous pamphlets, mainly dating originally from the Civil War period (1639-1650). Each pamphlet bears its original, individual title, e.g. : 'A declaration of the vile and wicked wayes of the cruell Cavaliers (1644)'. Each pamphlet is paginated individually at the top of each page, and also the whole sequence is assigned a continuous run of page numbers at the bottom of each page.
