DOWNLOAD EBOOKA 40th anniversary reissue of the national bestselling author's hilarious first novel that memorably mixed food, heartbreak, and revenge into a comic masterpiece—now with a new foreword by Stanley Tucci. • "Touching and funny.... Proof that writing well is the best revenge." —Chicago Tribune Is it possible to write a sidesplitting novel about the breakup of the perfect marriage? If the writer is Nora Ephron, the answer is a resounding yes. In this inspired confection of adultery, revenge, group therapy, and pot roast, the creator of Sleepless in Seattle and When Harry Met Sally... reminds us that comedy depends on anguish as surely as a proper gravy depends on flour and butter. Seven months into her pregnancy, Rachel Samstat discovers that her husband, Mark, is in love with another woman. The fact that the other woman has "a neck as long as an arm and a nose as long as a thumb and you should see her legs" is no consolation. Food sometimes is, though, since Rachel writes cookbooks for a living. And in between trying to win Mark back and loudly wishing him dead, Ephron's irrepressible heroine offers some of her favorite recipes. Heartburn is a sinfully delicious novel, as soul-satisfying as mashed potatoes and as airy as a perfect soufflé.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMy name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKALWAYS A BRIDESMAID… After a painful betrayal, Sylvie Shea put aside her dreams of becoming a successful New York wedding-dress designer and returned to her hometown in North Carolina. Now she outfits the town’s brides and secretly works on her last original gown, sure her creation will never be worn—and certainly not by her, no matter how determined her family and the town are to see her walk down the aisle! Sylvie’s new next-door neighbor can sympathize; the last thing Joel Mercer wants is to fall in love. He’s moved to Briarwood to give himself and his little girl, Rianne, a fresh start. But it’s Sylvie who helps them find it, as Rianne blossoms under her influence and even Joel starts to find her quirkiness charming. Simply, Sylvie gives them hope. If only Joel could figure out a way to return the favor….

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis thesis focused on the reuse of abandoned big box stores. These buildings are often left behind when stores close or relocate. Rather than remaining empty or being torn down and transported to a landfill, these buildings can be adapted for new uses as an alternative to the clearing and developing of new land. The goal of this project was to develop a system of typologies of intervention that take advantage of the potential for adaptation in big boxes. Unlike a design of one solution for a particular site and program, these solutions are applicable to almost any big box reuse. Three phases of the project focused on strategies for modifying the building skin to provide natural light, developing clear paths of circulation, and bringing activity to the site. The typologies of intervention developed in these investigations were refined into a set of twenty-four design elements: recommendations and solutions for the typical problems of adapting a big box. These design elements were presented in a handbook written for big box owners, developers, local governments, communities, and architects to inspire the future reuse of big box buildings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe American public school system is at a crossroad. One pathway is decorated with signs and institutions that will lead public education towards a destination of collective obligation, accountability, and responsibility that is student-centered, community-based, and driven by educators and parents working in the best interest of students, families, communities, and the broader society. The other pathway is littered with pamphlets, flyers, and electronic billboards falsely advertising the merits of school “choice.” The direction American public schools appear to have taken over the past few decades is increasingly dotted with charter schools operated by for-profit multinational corporations, and themed public schools. Increasingly, efforts to reform public education in America resemble the business model made popular by the founder of Wal-Mart, Sam Walton. Big Box Schools: Race, Education, and the Danger of the Wal-Martization of Public Schools in America examines the dangers of the Wal-Martization of American public schools and highlights efforts to challenge policies and practices which place greater emphasis on profits than on pupils.
