How
to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Stars Matthew McConaughey, Kate Hudson, Adam Goldberg,
Thomas Lennon and Michael Michele. Rated PG.
Reviewer: Pte Simone Heyer
A gratuitously girly film, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is
a hilarious look at relationships and their perceived rules.
Andie
Anderson (Hudson) is the how to girl with Composure magazine,
Ben Barry (McConaughey) is in advertising sports products
and alcohol. Their jobs lead them together and force them
apart.

Defenders
of Australia:
The 3rd Australian Division, 1916-1991
By Albert Palazzo.
Australian Military History Publications, 2002. 245pp. $45.
Reviewer: John Donovan
This book is a worthwhile addition to the body of work sponsored
by the Army History Unit. It covers the history of the 3rd
Division, originally raised by John Monash in 1916, from its
inception through vicissitudes in peace and war until its
disbandment (for the third time) in 1991.
