Synopsis
A new novel of the pre-Olympic moment from the Booker-shortlisted author of DARKMANS, Nicola Barker. 2006 is a foreign country; they do things differently there. Tiger Woods' reputation is entirely untarnished and the English Defence League does not exist yet. Storm-clouds of a different kind are gathering above the bar of Luton's less than exclusive Thistle Hotel. Among those caught up in the unfolding drama are a man who's had cancer seven times, a woman priest with an unruly fringe, the troubled family of a notorious local fascist, an interfering barmaid with three E's at A-level but a PhD in bullshit, a free-thinking Muslim sex therapist and his considerably more pious wife. But at the heart of every intrigue and the bottom of every mystery is the repugnantly charismatic Stuart Ransom a golfer in free-fall. Nicola Barker's 'The Yips' is at once a historical novel of the pre-Twitter moment, the filthiest state-of-the-nation novel since Martin Amis' 'Money' and the most flamboyant piece of comic fiction ever to be set in Luton., The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is a binational United States and Canadian organization charged with the missions of aerospace warning and aerospace control for North America.Ā Aerospace warning includes the monitoring of man-made objects in space and the detection, validation, and warning of attack against North America whether by aircraft, missiles, or space vehicles, through mutual support arrangements with other commands.Ā Aerospace control includes ensuring air sovereignty and air defense of the airspace of Canada and the United States.Ā Included in this anniversary edition of NORAS, is a timeline from the 1950s to the 2000s representing milestones within these decades.Ā This illustrated book includes past NORADĀ Commanders and deputy Commanders along with the crests and shields and showcases facts about each of the domains that comprise NORAD --- Air Domain, Missile Domain, Maritime Domain, and Space Domain Included in this commemorative edition is a brief history about the "NORADĀ TRACKSĀ SANTA"Ā Program that began on 24 December 1955.

- e***l (56)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThree-day rocket-fast shipping. The maps were packed well, and indeed are from 1957, just as described. A fair price and a great deal all-around. Seller is responsive and ships fast. I'll buy here again in a hot minute!
- i***s (282)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseItem arrived solo just now & was packaged appropriately for shipping. I ordered 3 items from the seller who said all 3 were put in the same box. For some unknown reason, the eBay agent I contacted had no idea why the International hub opened the original box & split the shipments to send all 3 items separately. The item appearance was as described & was in good condition. The seller was very generous in adjusting the shipping cost despite there being no "save on combined shipping".
