In the vein of Margaret Renkl and Terry Tempest Williams comes an engaging new memoir exploring different notions of ritual--from the literary to the theological, from childhood to adulthood, and from the everyday to the extraordinary.Using experiences, objects, and practices, Wendy A. Horwitz weaves personal stories with reflections on rituals that might provide solace, celebration, and transition at different points in life. Rather than a chronology, the chapters in Milkweed and Honey Cake create a collage of memories that are linked by themes. Some are more impressionistic while others are more narrative, but they all raise questions about searching for and creating meaning through different stages of life. Through these stories and vignettes, Horwitz examines the limits of ritual: the extent to which we can share each other's practices or create new ones, and the times when rituals fall short.Intending to inspire and provide rather than prescribe, Milkweed and Honey Cake is an accessible, enriching memoir that searches the religious, secular, and natural worlds that fill our lives with meaning.
For some of us, Big Ten basketball will always mean the original ten great teams that comprised the league. But for all fans, the teams during this time period bring back memories of some of the best teams and players that have ever played basketball. In the sweeping history of two decades of Big Ten basketball, Murry Nelson chronicles the conference when it was the most successful of any basketball conference in the nation. Coaches such as Lute Olson, Lou Henson, Johnny Orr, Gene Keady, and Bob Knight led the nation in national titles, influencing the league with their playing styles, changes to rules, recruitment and, of course, intensity. Follow Joe Barry Carroll as he leads the Purdue Boilermakers to the Final Four in 1980, Steve Alford as he takes the Hoosiers to a national championship win, Kent Benson's undefeated conference record, and Magic Johnson as he leads the Michigan State Spartans to multiple titles and championships. With chapters devoted to each season from 1972 to 1992, you can relive the action as if you were attending the games.

Do chemicals used during restoration leech into food? When it comes to surface finish, is textured or smooth better? In Skilletheads, the highly anticipated follow-up to Modern Cast Iron, Ashley L.

"An FBI cover-up spanning nearly a century. A victim and his family sworn to secrecy. Machine Gun Kelly's first kidnapping, a crime that changed America before it was swept under the rug of history. Under Penalty of Death: The Untold Story of Machine Gun Kelly's First Kidnapping brings to light for the first time the long-forgotten (and twice covered up) tale of the 1930s kidnapping that saved America from itself. In January 1932, Howard Arthur Woolverton, a wealthy industrialist in South Bend, Indiana, was kidnapped by Kelly and his gang. While no one was killed, the crime-occurring just six weeks before the Lindbergh kidnapping-nevertheless proved a watershed event, gripping the imagination of terrified Americans everywhere. The combined fallout of the two kidnappings helped usher in the federal law that shut down America's professional kidnapping industry for good. However, today Woolverton's name is forgotten, his story erased from public memory as if it had never happened. But why the cover-up? How did Woolverton quash the first investigation? Why did J. Edgar Hoover and his "G-Men" impose their own wall of silence? And how does it all connect with a bloody 1933 FBI screwup at a train station in Kansas City? Drawing on a buried federal statement, family archives, extensive research through period newspaper accounts, and interviews with those few who still remember, Under Penalty of Death: The Untold Story of Machine Gun Kelly's First Kidnapping exposes intrigue and collusion in the era of gangsters, rampant crime, and the Great Depression"--
