Every Six Seconds - Saliva

EVERY SECOND COUNTS. VIVE LE LANCE!

Advantages: INSPIRATIONAL. SOMEWHAT EDUCATIONAL ABOUT CANCER AND IT'S TREATMENT. EASY TO READ.
Disadvantages: SKIRTS AROUND THE MOST PERSONAL OF ISSUES

I bought "Every Second Counts" from Play.com in paperback form for £6.49 the same day I finshed Armstrong's first autobiography, "It's Not About The Bike." My motivation for reading about Armstrong stems from the fact that I took up recreational cycling 15 months ago, not realising the true complexities and difficulty of the sport. I wanted to know what drove a man to rise from what some doctors privately thought was his deathbed to go on and put himself through sport's biggest endurance test - The Tour de France. Not only that, but to win it an unparalled 7 times (straight). This book covers the period between his second and fifth victories. In my opinion, this book covers a lot of old ground for those that have read his first book. However, this is understandable as it was the events surrounding his 1996 cancer diagnosis and his ...

Review of Every Second Counts - Lance Armstrong

Every Second Counts.

Advantages: Delilah
Disadvantages: Quite a few average tracks

Plain white Tee's The band hails from Chicago in the US and formed way back in 1997. The band has already released 4 albums and this is the first album to chart in the US or UK Markets. This current album shot the band to the radio airways in the UK with the massive love song that was released last summer called hey there Delilah. The really interesting part of this story is that Delilah does not actually appear for the first time on the every second counts, but it was the record industry who asked the band to re-release it on the every second counts album. When it was re-released the band promoted the single all across the globe and the single reached number 1 in numerous countries, although surprisingly it only reached number 2 in the UK. The bands current lineup is: Tom Higgenson - Vocals Dave Tirio - Guitar Mike Retondo ...

Review of Every Second Counts - Plain White T's

Every Six Seconds...

Advantages: Has a touch of reality not found in a lot of bloke-lit
Disadvantages: As with most bloke-lit, they pack too much in for it to be completely real

You know, there's a funny thing about bloke-lit. It always seems to turn out to be about feelings. Bloke-lit books seem to present men with certain emotional situations and then write about how they feel about them. I'm not going to deny that men can have feelings too, you know. I mean, I've even been known to have the odd one or two myself. But where are the books about the things that the magazines like FHM and Loaded would have you believe men are really all about. Where is the book about leering at pretty girls and, if you're lucky, having sex with them? So when I spotted Mark Mason's "What Men Think About Sex", I thought I'd found it. Tim and Rob are colleagues in a London office. They have recently been joined at work by Clare Jordan, a colleague on secondment from their San Francisco office. With Clare Jordan being ...
