Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides research assistance for 99 current and provocative issues students can use to write a brief argumentative paper. In 2030, it is projected that 65 percent of the population will be over 65. The U.S. Government Census Bureau reveals that over an adult's working life, college graduates typically earn close to $1 million more than high school graduates. About 43 percent of American families spend more than they earn each year. These three factoids represent a tiny fraction of the potential research subjects contained in 99 Jumpstarts to Research: Topic Guides for Finding Information on Current Issues, Second Edition, a completely revised follow-up to the original edition. Every jumpstart—each focused upon a current, timely issue—contains ideas for narrowing the topic, research keywords, suggested best books and databases, and Internet sites.

Book excerpt: Lady Rags takes place in Grayport, a moderate-size town on the coast of Western Washington. Gil Hayworth owns and operates a drugstore where he is the pharmacist. He has a wife, Pam, and three children, Boyd, Tim, and Traci, all in their teens. On a rather rainy morning, on his way to work, Gil sees an unusual sight for Grayport—a bag lady. Yes, there are transient people in town, but until now, there hasn’t been a bag lady. And since she has only been seen recently, Gil’s curiosity is whetted: Why in the world would she pick the soggy Pacific Northwest and particularly Grayport to make her home? His family is none too thrilled with Gil’s interest in the old bag lady because they’re having problems of their own and can’t seem to get along anymore. Gil loves his family and wants everyone to understand his interest in Lady Rags. Gil finds out that Lady Rags came to Grayport with Duke, who works in the kitchen at the Union Gospel Mission. He learns from Duke that Mollie came with him from Missouri; she can’t talk, and at some point in her life, someone had tried to kill her. Lady Rags remembers none of it. She refuses to go to the Mission or Salvation Army for help, so she lives in the Grand Hotel that has been vacant for years and is very unpleasant. Gil is determined to find her family. Through his friend, Harv, at the local newspaper, he discovers who the bag lady might be. If she went missing from some place in Missouri forty-plus years ago, someone must be wondering what happened to her. 100 Lady Rags 100 Lady Rags

Download or read book American Dream written by Jason DeParle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-08-30 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this definitive work, two-time Pulitzer finalist Jason DeParle, author of A Good Provider Is One Who Leaves, cuts between the mean streets of Milwaukee and the corridors of Washington to produce a masterpiece of literary journalism. At the heart of the story are three cousins whose different lives follow similar trajectories. Leaving welfare, Angie puts her heart in her work. Jewell bets on an imprisoned man. Opal guards a tragic secret that threatens her kids and her life. DeParle traces their family history back six generations to slavery and weaves poor people, politicians, reformers, and rogues into a spellbinding epic. With a vivid sense of humanity, DeParle demonstrates that although we live in a country where anyone can make it, generation after generation some families don’t. To read American Dream is to understand why.

Download or read book Nothing Feels Good written by Andy Greenwald and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2003-11-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing Feels Good: Punk Rock, Teenagers, and Emo tells the story of a cultural moment that's happening right now-the nexus point where teen culture, music, and the web converge to create something new. While shallow celebrities dominate the headlines, pundits bemoan the death of the music industry, and the government decries teenagers for their morals (or lack thereof) earnest, heartfelt bands like Dashboard Confessional, Jimmy Eat World, and Thursday are quietly selling hundreds of thousands of albums through dedication, relentless touring and respect for their fans. This relationship - between young people and the empathetic music that sets them off down a road of self-discovery and self-definition - is emo, a much-maligned, mocked, and misunderstood term that has existed for nearly two decades, but has flourished only recently. In Nothing Feels Good, Andy Greenwald makes the case for emo as more than a genre - it's an essential rite of teenagehood. From the '80s to the '00s, from the basement to the stadium, from tour buses to chat rooms, and from the diary to the computer screen, Nothing Feels Good narrates the story of emo from the inside out and explores the way this movement is taking shape in real time and with real hearts on the line. Nothing Feels Good is the first book to explore this exciting moment in music history and Greenwald has been given unprecedented access to the bands and to their fans. He captures a place in time and a moment on the stage in a way only a true music fan can.
Download or read book The Yellow Kids written by Joyce Milton and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The amazing story behind the greatest newspapermen to ever live—Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst—lies primarily hidden with their reporters who were in the field. They risked their lives in Cuba as the country grappled for independence simply to “get the story” and write what were not always the most accurate accounts, but were definitely the best—anything to sell papers. Reporters like Harry Scovel, Stephen Crane, Cora Taylor, Richard Harding Davis, and James Creelman, among others, put themselves in danger every day just for the news. The Yellow Kids is an adventure story packed with engaging characters, witticisms, humor, and adversity, to reveal that the “yellow” found in journalism was often an extra ingredient applied by editors and publishers in New York.
Download or read book Protecting Our Kids written by Emily Horowitz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thought-provoking work raises important questions about sex offender laws, drawing from personal stories, research, and data to prove the policies promote fear, destroy lives, and fail to protect children. Do sex offender laws protect children, or are they inherently unfair practices that, at their worst, promote vigilante justice? The latter, this book argues. By analyzing the social, political, historical, and cultural context surrounding the emergence of current sex offender policies and laws, the work shows how sex offenders have come to loom as greater-than-life monsters when, in many cases, that is not true at all. Looking at its subject from a fresh viewpoint, the book shares research and new analyses of data and qualitative evidence to show how sex-offender laws are not only ineffective, but engender destructive fear and anxiety. To help readers understand the impact of these laws, the author presents interviews with sex offenders and their families as they describe the day-to-day reality of living on the sex offender registry. Citing research and statistics, the book challenges the idea that sex offenders must be continually monitored and publicly identified because they are incurably predatory. Most important, the study shows that undue sex offender panic is preventing policymakers from addressing the true threats to children—poverty and growing inequality.
