Book excerpt: When I agreed to go to the big city to discuss the delivery of our Christmas trees for the holiday season, I expected traffic, the horizon blocked by the skyline, and unbearable noise. I did not expect to see Rose O'Brien, the woman who broke my heart seven years ago, let alone have to work with her now. Same pretty pink smile, same contagious laugh, same piercing green-flecked hazel eyes that I've loved. Still love. Rose is determined that the city life is all she wants. How can this small-town lumberjack compete with the big city? Spruced Up for Big City is a small-town, second-chance, opposites attract, standalone novella romance. It's the fourth book in the Timberheart Grove series.

Book excerpt: A beautifully written and evocative memoir of pain and redemption, of hurt and healing, from an actress whose private life and personal choices have made her a household name. "My life is a life movies are made of," wrote Anne Heche in the proposal for her memoir. Yet what is truly surprising about Heche is that the most publicized event of her past -- her romance with Ellen DeGeneres -- is only one development in a fascinating and difficult life that has included more than its share of heartache and tragedy. Heche's memoir reveals the woman behind the headlines, one who has conquered overwhelming odds. Far from a celebrity memoir, this is an empowering and thought-provoking book guaranteed to surprise and inspire.

Endowed with psychic powers, they link up telepathically to survive a global cataclysm they have presaged. They do not know what form the disaster will take or when it will happen, whether it will be natural or man made, only that it will blanket Earth in death and destruction on a massive scale. Perceived as a potential threat to "normal" humans, they are tracked down relentlessly by an intelligence agency of the United States Government. Using their psychic abilities to thwart the pursuit, they set out to build underground safe havens on all seven continents. Their saga unfolds in New York, London, Washington, Toronto, southern Africa and the Australian outback, coming to an explosive climax in Canada's Far North.

Download or read book Coming Home to New Orleans written by Karl F. Seidman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 1100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming Home to New Orleans documents grassroots rebuilding efforts in New Orleans neighborhoods after hurricane Katrina, and draws lessons on their contribution to the post-disaster recovery of cities. The book begins with two chapters that address Katrina's impact and the planning and public sector recovery policies that set the context for neighborhood recovery. Rebuilding narratives for six New Orleans neighborhoods are then presented and analyzed. In the heavily flooded Broadmoor and Village de L'Est neighborhoods, residents coalesced around communitywide initiatives, one through a neighborhood association and the second under church leadership, to help homeowners return and restore housing, get key public facilities and businesses rebuilt and create new community-based organizations and civic capacity. A comparison of four adjacent neighborhoods in the center of the city show how differing socioeconomic conditions, geography, government policies and neighborhood capacity created varied recovery trajectories. The concluding chapter argues that grassroots and neighborhood scale initiatives can make important contributions to city recovery in four areas: repopulation, restoring "complete neighborhoods" with key services and amenities, rebuilding parts of the small business economy and enhancing recovery capacity. It also calls for more balanced investments and policies to rebuild rental and owner-occupied housing and more deliberate collaboration with community-based organizations to undertake and implement recovery plans, and proposes changes to federal disaster recovery policies and programs to leverage the contribution of grassroots rebuilding and more support for city recovery.
Download or read book Tashkent written by Paul Michael Stronski and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2010-09-19 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Stronski tells the fascinating story of Tashkent, an ethnically diverse, primarily Muslim city that became the prototype for the Soviet-era reimagining of urban centers in Central Asia. Based on extensive research in Russian and Uzbek archives, Stronski shows us how Soviet officials, planners, and architects strived to integrate local ethnic traditions and socialist ideology into a newly constructed urban space and propaganda showcase. The Soviets planned to transform Tashkent from a "feudal city" of the tsarist era into a "flourishing garden," replete with fountains, a lakeside resort, modern roadways, schools, hospitals, apartment buildings, and of course, factories. The city was intended to be a shining example to the world of the successful assimilation of a distinctly non-Russian city and its citizens through the catalyst of socialism. As Stronski reveals, the physical building of this Soviet city was not an end in itself, but rather a means to change the people and their society. Stronski analyzes how the local population of Tashkent reacted to, resisted, and eventually acquiesced to the city's socialist transformation. He records their experiences of the Great Terror, World War II, Stalin's death, and the developments of the Krushchev and Brezhnev eras up until the earthquake of 1966, which leveled large parts of the city. Stronski finds that the Soviets established a legitimacy that transformed Tashkent and its people into one of the more stalwart supporters of the regime through years of political and cultural changes and finally during the upheavals of glasnost.
