The Adventures of Gleeson and Cormac
Gleeson and Cormac are two curious frogs that are joined in their continuing adventures by their friend, Rachel. The first story in the series was The Adventures of Gleeson and Cormac: Why Do People Cry? This book Why Are People Bullied? has the two frogs and their friend, Rachel, watch a class that is studying bullying and hearing stories told by students. Gleeson, Cormac, and Rachel use their iPhones to read the difference between teasing and bullying. They also remember what they learned about crying during their last adventure. After a break, the class discusses what they could do to help someone who has been bullied. After the class ends, Rachel shares her own story with her two friends about being bullied and how her friends helped her feel better. As they head toward Main Pond, they see an older girl bullying a younger girl. What should they do? What would you do?
King Seneb-Kay's Tomb and the Necropolis of a Lost Dynasty at Abydos
This volume is the publication and analysis of the tomb of pharaoh Seneb-Kay (ca. 1650-1600 BCE), and a cemetery of associated tombs at Abydos, all attributable to a group of kings of Egypt's Second Intermediate Period. The tomb of Seneb-Kay has provided the first known king's tomb of pharaonic Egypt that included decorated imagery in the burial chamber. That evidence, presented in full-color and discussed in detail in the volume, allows us to identify this previously unknown ruler along with a group of seven similar tombs that can be attributed to an Upper Egyptian Dynasty that survived for approximately half a century during a period of pronounced territorial fragmentation in the Nile Vall...
Museum Lighting
Author David Saunders, former keeper of conservation and scientific research at the British Museum, explores how to balance the conflicting goals of visibility and preservation under a variety of conditions. Beginning with the science of how light, color, and vision function and interact, he proceeds to offer detailed studies of the impact of light on a wide range of objects, including paintings, manuscripts, textiles, bone, leather, and plastics. With analyses of the effects of light on visibility and deterioration, Museum Lighting provides practical information to assist curators, conservators, and other museum professionals in making critical decisions about the display and preservation of objects in their collections.
The Adventures of Gleeson and Cormac
Gleeson and Cormac are two frogs who live in a lily-covered pond in the heart of a beautiful green park. One day the two curious frogs decide to go off on an adventure and explore the park where their peaceful pond is located. As they explore their lush, green surroundings, Gleeson and Cormac come across several people in the park who are crying. Yet much to Gleeson and Cormac's confusion, the people in the different scenarios appear to be crying for different reasons. Some tears appear happy, while others are sad. Gleeson and Cormac use their iPads to research different reasons people cry. When it's time to go home, the two frogs use the GPS on their phones to plot their course. To their di...
Women in the Struggle for Irish Independence
Women have too often been written out of history. This is especially true in the fight for Irish independence. The women's struggle was three-fold, beginning with the suffragettes' fight to win the vote. Then came the push for fair pay and working conditions. Binding them together became part of the national struggle, first for home rule, then for the establishment of an Irish Republic. The Easter Rising of 1916 brought them together as soldiers of the Republic. Through the terrible years that followed, they became the conscience of Republicanism. Following independence, they were betrayed by the men they had served alongside. DeValera and the Catholic Church restricted their roles in society--they were to be wives and mothers without a voice. It was not until Ireland's entry into the European community and the self destruction of a corrupt Church that Irish women were acknowledged for what they had achieved.

New Life for Archaeological Collections
New Life for Archaeological Collections explores solutions to what archaeologists are calling the "curation crisis," that is, too much stuff with too little research, analysis, and public interpretation. This volume demonstrates how archaeologists are taking both large and small steps toward not only solving the dilemma of storage but recognizing the value of these collections through inventorying and cataloging, curation, rehousing, artifact conservation, volunteer and student efforts, and public exhibits. Essays in this volume highlight new questions and innovative uses for existing archaeological collections. Rebecca Allen and Ben Ford advance ways to make the evaluation and documentation...
Fort Wright
The name Fort Wright was derived from the town's strategic location during the Civil War. Just south of Cincinnati, Fort Wright was one of the highest points in Northern Kentucky in 1862. As the Confederate Army marched to attack Cincinnati, Gen. Horatio Wright, the city's namesake, commanded region-wide volunteers who built fortified positions that repulsed the attack. In the 1900s, development on the Lexington Turnpike (today's Dixie Highway) brought gambling, Frank Sinatra, and even Pres. Richard Nixon to Fort Wright. Neighborhoods grew, the city incorporated in 1941, and the fire department was founded. Fort Wright merged with two cities, annexed one, talked about a merger with two more, and was publicly coveted by another, earning the enviable nickname "City of Cities." After 150 years, the city continues to live up to its motto of "Neighbors Helping Neighbors."
