The One Year Mini for Busy Women
You're a busy woman on the go. From the competing demands of work to the whining voices of kids in the back seat, your days are crammed full of stuff to do. It's in the in-between times (waiting for the kids at a soccer match, on the commute home, during a lunch break at work) that you have time to center your thoughts back on the simple joys in life—the beauty of flowers in bloom, the exuberance of young toddlers at play, the excitement of kids coming home from school. The One Year Mini for Busy Women is there for you when you need.
Fat Girl Power
In this collection of original personal essays and posts from her blog Stellar Fashion & Fitness, Jennifer King weaves coming-of-age stories into lessons on how to boost your self-esteem with the three things that have made a direct impact on her own confidence: fashion, fitness and body positivity. King explores her relationship with her body, fashion, food and exercise, as well as what media messages do to shape those feelings. She delves into how others' perceptions of her body either reinforce or tear down a healthy image, hoping to inspire others to boost their self-love from the outside in - and the inside out. As the blogger behind Stellar Fashion & Fitness, King brings 16 years of professional writing and editing to the site, along with a catalog of life experiences, a passion for fashion, and an energetic pursuit of health and happiness, recognizing that the two aren't mutually exclusive. When she's not helping friends shop for special occasions or racking up miles walking or running, you can find her exploring her home of Birmingham, Alabama, and watching comic book superhero movies with her husband, Jermaine.
Killer Dad
A devoutly religious husband and father is revealed as a murderous sex addict in this true crime case featured on 48 Hours Mystery. In November of 2001, Colorado family man Michael Blagg called 911 in distress over his missing wife and six-year-old daughter, exclaiming “Oh my god . . . there’s blood all over!” But frantic search parties and Michael's anguished pleas on national television came up empty. Then the investigation stumbled across Blagg’s dark side. A devout born-again Christian, Blagg was addicted to Internet porn. He also reportedly abused his wife and indulged in the services of hired escorts. Then in June 2002, nearly a year after her disappearance, his wife's mummified remains were found in a local landfill. And Michael quickly left town. Extradited from Georgia, Blagg was charged with first-degree murder. But the explosive trial was rocked by even more bizarre revelations, stunning twists, and an unspeakable mystery that haunted the country: What made Blagg do it? And, even more disturbing, whatever happened to little Abby? Includes sixteen pages of shocking photos
Finding Marjorie King
Who was Marjorie King? Her daughter, Jennifer, needed to know. Why did her beautiful, funny, shy mother never speak about her past? Where was her Mum's family? Jennifer's framed portrait revealed a stunning young Asian woman. But there were no images of Marjorie as a child. And while there was a steady stream of relatives from Jennifer's father's family to their Swan Valley farm, from her mother's side there was only silence. As Jennifer grew older, she began recording the little information her mother shared, always reluctantly and often through tears. Her childhood friend Cheryl was surrounded by family history. Her interest in genealogy, writing and research would inevitably find her draw...
What Comes After Lunch?
Faced with the problem of how to measure the magnitude of economic disadvantage in the populations served by schools or districts, researchers addressing school finance topics have invariably turned to the fraction of students eligible for free- or reduced-lunches (FRPL). But the facile dependence on FRPL may be problematic. A large and growing literature in learning sciences and in the field of education itself has pivoted towards studies that explore the relationship between social/emotional health and the learning of children. The growing body of research on social/emotional health and learning (e.g. Gershoff, Aber, Raver, and Lennon, 2007) suggests that more refined measures of wealth, i...
Food and the City
A global movement to take back our food is growing. The future of farming is in our hands—and in our cities. This book examines alternative food systems in cities around the globe that are shortening their food chains, growing food within their city limits, and taking their "food security" into their own hands. The author, an award-winning food journalist, sought out leaders in the urban-agriculture movement and visited cities successfully dealing with "food deserts." What she found was not just a niche concern of activists but a global movement that cuts across the private and public spheres, economic classes, and cultures. She describes a global movement happening from London and Paris t...
