Dave's mobile went - poor Cleggsy, wanting to know what the Queen was like. "Incredibly nervous," Dave said. "But Sam soon put her at her ease."' We have heard, it seems, every opinion on the rise of the coalition save one: that of the new Prime Minister's wife, Samantha. Star journalist Catherine Bennett has stepped in to give us a glimpse of Sam Cam's first year in Downing Street. What to do about Cherie's nightmare granite'n'pine kitchen? How can Dave's rationingy-austerity-depressiony vibe be harnessed for the luxury goods market? Is there a polite strategy for avoiding Miriam Clegg's bookclub?
Director of The Terminator, Aliens and Titanic, James Cameron's latest movie, Avatar, is the most viewed cinema release of all time, yet to date receives little academic attention. Filling the gap, editor of www.DeepFocusFilm.com, Bryn V. Young-Roberts, researches Avatar's historical and cultural relevance with its first in-depth examination while simultaneously discussing the Cameron oeuvre. From the perspective of historical contextualisation and cultural analysis we decipher its socially significant subtext, encouraging a view that Avatar is not exclusively a generic entertainment spectacle. Providing foundations for future studies, we examine the film as metaphor for the Iraq War, advocator of the Internet as liberation tool, and political stance to the Bush administration. Fear of the industrial-military complex, and romantic ideals of Class are also analysed. Ultimately, the volume summarizes Avatar in relation to Cameron's other work and how it fits into our larger, contemporary society.
Matt Cameron likes being a federal lawman, and he's good at it. But an unexpected transfer from Wyoming to Oklahoma Territory was the last thing he needed. On arriving in his hometown to investigate an Army payroll robbery in which three soldiers had been murdered, he runs into the same attitudes that had driven him away sixteen years earlier. His father, Pete Cameron, a well-respected cattle rancher, has never forgiven him for leaving without a word. Under orders to conduct his investigation in secret, Matt has no choice but to endure Pete's constant badgering. But where is his breaking point? It had been a long time since any man had gotten away with humiliating him. To add to his difficulties, the town ne'er-do-well, Billy Butler, also has some unfinished business with him. This state of affairs only strengthens his resolve. Never again will he pay, with feelings of shame and guilt, for the mistakes of his youth. The long overdue showdown with his father and Butler will be the first order of business following the investigation's conclusion ...
From clothes to cereal and tools to bugs, Cameron discovers how much fun it is to sort and organize throughout the day, when he gets up in the morning and while visiting his grandparents. He learns about organizing by helping Mutsi find a special pair of earrings, helping Grampy organize his tools, and even collecting roly-polys, worms, and snails outside. Join Cameron as he learns basic organizing skills, and then find some items to sort in your home or outside!

British photographer Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) has been described as one of the Finest portraitists of the nineteenth century-in any medium. Raised in a well-connected and creative family, Cameron led an unconventional life for a woman of the Victorian age. After devoting herself to an artistic and literary salon at her home on the Isle of Wight and raising eleven children, Cameron took up photography in her late forties. Over the next fourteen years, she produced more than a thousand strikingly original and often controversial images. Her searching portraits of her friends and acquaintances, including Alfred Tennyson and Charles Darwin, have been called the world's first close-ups. This biography casts new light on the artist's links with the leading cultural figures of her time and on the techniques she used to achieve her distinctive style. It is published to coincide with a travelling exhibition of Cameron's photographs that will be on display at the National Portrait Gallery, London, and the National Museum of Photography, Film and Televison, Bradford, England, in spring 2003 and will open at the Getty Museum in October 2003.
