About this product: Violation! is a collection of "parking tickets", citations that look like the real thing but in fact are humorous takes on common "everyday offenses" such as taking up two parking spaces, not putting the seat down in the bathroom, not clearing the paper jam at the photo copier, and so on., and so one-
(because your day is filled with people intent on ruining your day!)
Each ticket includes humorous copy, and also includes fines, "penalties" and the appropriate insults for those offenders that you would prefer to avoid, and would rather your retribution to be dolled out from afar, i.e. " We all have to park on this street!" and "I pity your family and friends", and for work place offenses, "I'm getting paid like you, except I'm actually doing my job".
Violation! is a fun way to get your point across to others in a way that's funny, yet direct. A great gift for commuters, families, college students, and anyone who's bothered by the sometimes inconsiderate behavior of others.

On the beach, west of Kings Lynn, a dog discovers eight bodies---all young and male, with their identifying papers removed; all suffocated to death and hastily dragged through the mud to their temporary graves.
Jules Carlisle, the youngest and most recently qualified member of Paul Jenkins Solicitors, knows very little about illegal immigration and would like to keep it that way. But when she takes on the case of Mirko Dragunoviç, she finds herself intrigued by his plight and concerned for his welfare.
Mirko entered England from the former Yugoslavia three years ago legally, but overstayed his work visa. He believes his brother is one of the eight men, but identifying the body would mean imprisonment and deportation to Serbia. Although Mirko has knowledge of the human traffic operation that was bringing his brother to the United Kingdom, he’s reluctant to talk, leaving Jules torn between protecting him and following correct procedure.
But it seems the case is even more complicated than she first suspects. It isn’t long before Jules finds herself drawn inexorably into great danger, and back into the territory of the abused childhood she thought she had escaped forever....
About this product: DISCOUNT AIRFARES is a step-by-step manual that will show you the simple strategies others are using to save hundreds of dollars on every purchase of airline tickets. This is the most comprehensive book ever written explaining airline ticket prices.
This sourcebook contains much more than explanations and examples. It is filled with hundreds of Web site addresses and telephone contact numbers you can immediately begin using to save money.
Whether you are a travel agent or simply a budget minded traveler, this book will become your essential reference for airline travel.
Today it is all but impossible for the average traveler to stay on top of all the complex airline fare changes. Even travel agents are unable to keep up with the hundreds of changes that are made every day. We are constantly hearing about flight bargains, but lack the ability to seek these prices out for ourselves. We simply lack the knowledge, or information, to remedy this situation. What can the average part-time traveler do to avoid this "ripped-off" feeling?
The book is divided into three parts. Part I, the seven basic strategies, explores the seven most common, and easiest to use methods to purchase bargain airfares. Included in this section is the use of ticket consolidators, charter flights, air courier services, air passes, advance purchase excursion tickets, online resources, and the use of new or upstart airlines. These are the most common, most conservative, and easiest to use methods of purchasing discount airline tickets.
Part II of the book, Specialized Tactics, presents 15 additional specialized strategies that can be employed to save you money (and sometimes a great deal of money) on your airline tickets. These methods are esoteric, and are probably not familiar to most people. Many of these not-so-common tactics can help you obtain additional savings that can range from 25-80%. The fact that most people are probably unfamiliar with a method will work to your advantage. If everyone were employing these methods, the airlines would soon find a way to prohibit their use. Many of these approaches can be combined to obtain even greater savings. This section of the book will provide many ideas for those with adventurous spirits.
Part III of the book presents an additional 15 "Short Subjects." These simple strategies can often be combined to gain even greater savings. Often these techniques can be piggybacked with your basic strategies creating enormous savings.

About this product: From around the world, this book houses a collection of over 2,500 various ticket stubs dating from the past two decades. The opus of Tanja Backe, these tickets come from every imaginable source: airplane, train, ferry, bus, metro, cloakroom and parking tickets, bank and taxi receipts, inspection labels, admission tickets for museums, theatres, cinemas, circuses, operas, zoos, concerts, ballets, even reptile shows. The collection sampling of all kinds of occasions and cultural events. Non-chronological and non-linear, the book can be navigated according to individual preference and logic. The collection reprints the tickets at true size, one-to-one, organized according to color and hue. Backe guides us through the variety of typefaces, languages, formats, styles, backgrounds, identities, illustrations, and other graphic elements contained in this sweeping collection. Fascinatingly small, the ticket is a unique and intriguing format, one that demands efficiency, utility, and that can become a thing of high design and ingenuity.
About this product: An excellent book. To tell you the truth, before reading this book (and, believe me, I've read a lot of books about the Beatles), I didn't even know that the Beatles had opening bands on their American tours; I just assumed that the Beatles played for 30 minutes and that was the whole show. Barry Tashian's book gives a very good fellow musician's perspective on the Beatles' 1966 summer tour.
The most refreshing part of the book was learning that the Beatles (George, particularly) were quite friendly to their fellow musicians and not stand-offish. Particularly interesting is an account Tashian gives of playing a new Tim Hardin album for John and being fascinated by Lennon's musical analysis of it.
