While nearly all Will Ferrell's films are enjoyable on some level, they tend to fire on all cylinders when Adam McKay is involved. McKay co-wrote and directed ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY and TALLADEGA NIGHTS: THE BALLAD OF RICKY BOBBY, two of Ferrell's most popular and consummately hilarious films. McKay reteamed with not only Ferrell for STEP BROTHERS, but also Ferrell's co-star in TALLADEGA NIGHTS, John C. Reilly (who has steadily proven himself to be one of Hollywood's most versatile actors); and though STEP BROTHERS may be the most threadbare of the three movies on which the duo have collaborated, it's arguably their best.The plot is about as simple as they come: Brennan Huff (Ferrell) and Dale Doback (Reilly) are deadbeat man-children thrown together when the single parents with whom they live marry. The two initially despise one another, but become fast friends over a shared love of ninjas, COPS, porno mags, and the comforts of living in the fantasy world of a prolonged adolescence. What makes

The two initially despise one another but become fast friends over a shared love of ninjas COPS porno mags and the comforts of living in the fantasy world of a prolonged adolescence. What makes STEPBROTHERS so much fun however has nothing to do with story or script; rather it's McKay's foresight to step back and let Ferrell and Reilly run wild. The duo kick and punch fart and burp laugh and cry yet somehow elevate such banalities to a level of grotesque poetry hitting upon what feels like an entirely new comedic language. When the pair act like children they are not presenting themselves as immature adults but are literally acting like children meticulously duplicating everything from the fears and concerns to the speech patterns and awkward physicality of children. It sounds simple enough but it requires a dexterity and sense of timing and delivery that is actually quite amazing. In the end STEP BROTHERS is really nothing more than an absurd comedy; then again isn't that what they called WAITING FOR GODOT?

A new edition of Just James by John Painter was planned in November 2002 after the announcement of the discovery in Jerusalem of a Jewish ossuary, or burial box, inscribed in Aramaic with the words, as commonly translated, "James son of Joseph brother of Jesus." Though evidence of tampering with the inscription led to the discrediting of the claims made about it, the publicity surrounding the controversial discovery made many people aware that Jesus of Nazareth had a famous brother named James. The new edition of this book examines the evidence and claims surrounding the ossuary, as well as taking the opportunity to respond to new questions and lines of inquiry relating to James. In addition to offering corrections, clarifications, and elaborations of the existing text, there is a substantial addition of new material of which the examination of the ossuary and the arguments surrounding it form but one small part. It does, however, provide a substantial critique of the evidence. In the light of the discrediting of the claims, this aspect of the book allows the reader to assess how conclusive the verdict is. At the same time, the inscription puts in question the practice of translating the name in the inscription--and in its Greek forms in the New Testament--as James rather than as Jacob. This issue is taken up in the second edition. Two other issues receive further detailed treatment in two new chapters in the second edition. The first edition argued that those known as "brothers and sisters of Jesus (the Lord)" in the New Testament and other early Christian sources were just that, and offered a critique of the alternative views (step-brothers/sisters and cousins). Since the publication of the first edition, it has become clear that the Eastern view in particular is attracting scholarly defenders in the West. Because of this, a new chapter deals more fully with a critique of the evidence upon which these two alternative views are based. Consequently the advocacy of the view that Jesus had four brothers and at least two sisters is now stronger and more detailed. The new edition also develops a new view of the leadership of James in earliest Christianity. Since the publication of the first edition, the work of Jacob Neusner on the development of the Patriarchy, in the Judaism of the first two centuries C.E., has evoked similarities between the leadership of James and that of the evolving Patriarchy of the time. The new edition of Just James makes significant use of Neusner's analysis of the hereditary Davidic leadership role of the Patriarch and its relationship to the role of the Sages, which is comparable to the role of James in relation to the apostles and elders in Acts 15 and elsewhere. Though Patriarchy did not become the terminology of leadership in the Western Church, it is embedded in the language of the Eastern Church. A significant argument is made for understanding the leadership of James in the context of the Judaism of the time, which is more credible than an earlier attempt to relate it to the much later and Arabic phenomenon of the Caliphate. The leadership of the Patriarch is more collegial in character than the form that developed in the Church of the West. This aspect of the new edition throws light on Christian beginnings and may also provide a constructive perspective from which to view Church leadership in the present. Just James analyses the varied considerations concerning James' relationship to Jesus as one basis of his leadership. While providing access to the early sources concerning James, Painter sets out the evidence for recognizing James as the direct successor to Jesus and the leader of the earliest Christian movement in Jerusalem. Recognition of the leadership of James is evident in the New Testament, though it is not prominent. The New Testament reflects other interests that focus attention on Peter and Paul. Nevertheless, in the New Testament, both Peter and Paul acknowledge James's authority,

Unlocking the Gateway to Flight: The Keys to the Success of the Wright Brothers tells the fascinating story of how two remarkable brothers realized mankind's age-old dream of flight. In crystal-clear prose it chronicles, step-by-step, how patience, the scientific method, inspired genius, and incredible concentration changed the world forever. The book covers the unique role the entire Wright family played in the development of these two young men, contributing greatly to their eventual success and notoriety. Neither Orville, nor Wilbur held a high school diploma; both had only modest means. Yet in just four short years they learned the secrets of flight that had evaded even the most famous, the best-educated, and the most heavily-financed scientists and engineers for centuries. The principles they discovered a century ago still apply to every aircraft built today. Beautifully designed by Dayton artist Bill Patterson, of Patterson Graphics, and liberally illustrated with photographs and diagrams, many from the Wrights' archives, this casebound, commemorative edition features 16 additional, full-color pages highlighting the centennial celebrations of December 17, 2003, in Kitty Hawk, NC. This special edition includes exclusive photos not seen in the softcover version of the exciting reenactment of the first flight on that historic day. Available to libraries and non-profit organizations at a special discounted rate.

Tommy and Nathan Bishop are as different as two brothers can be. Carefree and careless, Tommy is the golden boy who takes men into his bed with a seductive smile and turns them out just as quickly. No one can resist him - and no one can control him, either. That salient point certainly isn't lost on his brother. Nathan is all about control.

Now, Tommy has come home to the family cottage by the sea for the summer, bringing his unstable, sexual powder keg of an entourage - and the distant echoes of his family's tumultuous past - with him. Tommy and his lover Philip are teetering on the brink of disaster, while their married friends, Camille and Kyle, perfect their steps in a dance of denial, each partner pulling Nathan deeper into the fray. And when one of Nathan's troubled students, Simon, begins visiting the house, the slow fuse is lit on a highly combustible mix. During a heady two-week party filled with drunken revelations, bitter jealousies, caustic jabs, and tender reconciliations, Tommy and Nathan will confront the legacy of their twisted family history - the angry, abusive father and the tragic death of their mother - and finally, to the one secret that has shaped their entire lives. It is a summer that will challenge everything Nathan remembers and unravel Tommy's carefully constructed facade, drawing them both unwittingly into a drama with echoes of the past...one with unforeseen and very dangerous consequences.
