Tangled Up in Luck, 1 - (The Tangled Mysteries) by Merrill Wyatt (Hardcover)
Number of Pages: 256Genre: Juvenile FictionSub-Genre: Mysteries & Detective StoriesSeries Title: The Tangled MysteriesFormat: HardcoverPublisher: Margaret K. McElderry BooksAge Range: 9-12 YearsAuthor: Merrill WyattLanguage: English About the Book Seventh-graders Sloane and Amelia are devastated to be paired for a research project about long-lost jewels, but soon they are finding clues hidden for nearly a century--and realize they are being used. Book Synopsis When seventh grade enemies research a missing set of jewels for a class project, they realize that the answers to the unsolved case might be much closer to home than they thought in this fun-filled mystery for fans of The Book Scavenger and Lemons. If you told Sloane Osburn and Amelia Miller-Poe that they'd be hiding in their town cemetery from an evil mastermind, they would have been hard-pressed to believe you. If you also told them that person was intent on beating them to a cache of long-lost jewels using nothing more than a slingshot and wicked aim, they'd have been sure you got your facts wrong. Finally, if you told them they'd be doing all of this as friends...well, they would have been sure you needed medical attention. Whether through serendipity (really, really good luck) or zemblanity (really, really bad luck), someone tricked their teacher into using their seventh-grade class to investigate the mystery of their town's long-missing treasure. From there, things have escalated. Quickly. Now, the girls are stuck hiding behind a gravestone, dodging acorns (who knew acorns could be so threatening?), and just a few clues short of those jewels. It's up to these enemies-turned-partners to uncover centuries-old clues to find the treasure at the end of this book before the mysterious person on their trail can get to it first... About the Author Merrill Wyatt lives in Toledo, Ohio, with her husband, daughter, three cats, and a slightly surly guinea pig. She spent far too much of her childhood wandering around cemeteries and old Victorian homes. A middle school technology teacher, she is doll-phobic, donut-obsessed, and owns too many pairs of shoes.
There She Was - by Amy Argetsinger (Hardcover)
Number of Pages: 384Genre: HistorySub-Genre: WomenFormat: HardcoverPublisher: Atria/One Signal PublishersAge Range: AdultAuthor: Amy ArgetsingerLanguage: English Book Synopsis A Washington Post style editor's fascinating and irresistible look back on the Miss America pageant as it approaches its 100th anniversary. In its heyday, Miss America was viewed nationwide by tens of millions of people each year. It was considered both the first reality TV show and the highest honor a young woman could achieve. From its giddy origins as a summer's-end tourist draw in Prohibition-era Atlantic City, it blossomed into an institution reaching communities across the country. Today, as its brand fades, many wonder what happened--and how it ever was such a cultural phenomenon. Now, the hidden world of the iconic competition comes to life in this deeply reported journey through Miss America's past and present, including intimate interviews with dozens of the women who sought or won the title--and those still beginning their quest in local "Miss" pageants across the country. Amy Argetsinger traces how the dusty institution collided with a women's liberation movement that sought to abolish it, and how it was reborn thanks to the new energy of baby boomer and Generation X contestants. From Phyllis George to Vanessa Williams to Gretchen Carlson, the pageant became a venue for young women to exercise their ambitions and learn brutal lessons about the culture of fame. Poignant and revelatory, There She Was charts the evolution of the American woman, from the Miss America catapulted into advocacy after she was exposed as a domestic violence victim, to the one who used the crown to launch a congressional campaign; from a 1930s winner who ran away on the night of her crowning to a current-day rock guitarist trying to find her place in this world. It dissects the scandals and financial turmoil that have repeatedly threatened to kill the pageant--and the unlikely sisterhood of Miss Americas who struggled to keep it alive. Review Quotes "Assiduously researched and beautifully written, There She Was explores the pageant's history, its small-town roots and its glamorous allure with engaging reporting, wry humor and affection. In Argetsinger's capable hands, this is ultimately the story of women in this country." --Robin Givhan, Pulitzer Prizewinning critic, Washington Post senior critic-at-large, and author of The Battle of Versailles"In this wildly entertaining journey into an American institution we see how beauty is quantified and calibrated. Surprisingly, some of the biggest disrupters, the people who want the crown to be about more than superficial beauty, are at the very heart of the country's most celebrated beauty pageant. I couldn't put this book down." --Kate Andersen Brower, CNN contributor and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Residence, First Women and, most recently, Team of Five About the Author Amy Argetsinger is an editor for The Washington Post's Style section. A staff writer since 1995, she covered a variety of news beats and went on to write the Reliable Source column for eight years. She lives in Washington, DC, with her husband and daughter.

Bauakademie Berlin - by Raumgestaltung Und Entwerfen Tu Vienna & Wilfried Kuehn & Franz Kamer (Paperback)
Number of Pages: 320Genre: ArchitectureSub-Genre: Individual Architects & FirmsFormat: PaperbackPublisher: Jovis VerlagAge Range: AdultBook theme: GeneralAuthor: Raumgestaltung Und Entwerfen Tu Vienna & Wilfried Kuehn & Franz KamerLanguage: English Book Synopsis Armin Linke's night photography reveals the vacancy of the Bauakademie as a trace of Schinkel in Berlin's urban fabric. The rudimentary replica of the corner construction raises questions about the future use and form of this centrally located site. Despite current majority support in Parliament for a reconstruction of the historical envelope-analogous to the recently completed Humboldt Forum- there are clearly more differentiated ideas among architects and urban society in Berlin about the future of the Bauakademie building. There is strong resistance to the appropriation of this important institution and building task by representational politics, that actually threaten to obscure more historical traces than they are supposed to make visible with the motto "As much Schinkel as possible". At this important moment, Bauakademie Berlin offers conceptual perspectives for a contemporary Bauakademie in the form of texts, architectural drawings and artist's photographs. With texts by Sandra Bartoli, Stefanie Endlich, Tanja Scheffler, Dubravka Sekulic, Axel Sowa, Stephan Trüby and Andreas Zeese. Photographs by Armin Linke and Gili Merin

There's a lesson to be learned.Lazarus wasn't just a man raised from the dead-he had a life before and after his resurrection. And Jesus didn't perform the miracle just to be flashy.

Number of Pages: 75Genre: Political ScienceSub-Genre: Political EconomySeries Title: Elements in Political EconomyFormat: PaperbackPublisher: Cambridge University PressAge Range: AdultAuthor: Federica Carugati & Margaret LeviLanguage: English About the Book This Element moves toward building a new moral political economy, offering a theory of change and principles for institutional redesign. Book Synopsis Economies - and the government institutions that support them - reflect a moral and political choice, a choice we can make and remake. Since the dawn of industrialization and democratization in the late eighteenth century, there has been a succession of political economic frameworks, reflecting changes in technology, knowledge, trade, global connections, political power, and the expansion of citizenship. The challenges of today reveal the need for a new moral political economy that recognizes the politics in political economy. It also requires the redesign of our social, economic, and governing institutions based on assumptions about humans as social beings rather than narrow self-serving individualists. This Element makes some progress toward building a new moral political economy by offering both a theory of change and some principles for institutional (re)design.
