Budapest, 1956. In the darkest year of Hungary's modern history, a national uprising against Soviet occupiers and their reign of terror is underway. Eleven-year-old Evike and her firebrand mother steal deep into battle zones in support of civilian freedom fighters, armed only with primitive weapons and desperate courage against the heavy artillery of trained Russian troops. When taken in for interrogation by the secret police, little Evike spins a story to deflect attention from her mother's revolutionary activities--a story that will irrevocably alter many lives and reach its tentacles, thirty years later, into the life of Ildiko Palmay. Chicago, 1986. Ildiko is a thirty-seven-year-old librarian and ESL teacher, the American-born daughter of Hungarian refugees. She is caught in a web of guilt and regret over her mother's mystifying death. Unsettled by her life and her romantic failures, she finds herself suddenly and unexpectedly drawn back to her roots--first to the Hungarian neighborhood of her youth in Chicago, and eventually to the Russian-occupied city of Budapest. Along the way, she meets a magnetic man who may not be what he seems and uncovers a trail of secrets and betrayals that eventually intersects with the tangled knot of the mother-daughter participants in the revolution. Triptych is the suspenseful unfolding of two parallel stories of mother and daughter relationships forged in the brutalities of the 1956 Hungarian revolution--a tale about the corrosive power of secrets and, ultimately, the healing power of forgiveness.

Too often, ADHD kids are alienated within a school system that doesn't truly understand what it's dealing with. There is no other school group that is reprimanded and mocked as frequently as students with ADHD. Instead of being thought of as innovators and future world leaders, ADHD kids are labeled, "Lazy," "Spacey," or "Defiant." Award-winning author, and 30-year veteran teacher and school counselor, Yafa Crane Luria (formerly Margit Crane)-diagnosed with ADHD herself in 1980-is very familiar with the plight of students with ADHD. She says, "I was one of those too curious, too intense students. Teachers weren't quite sure what to do with me, and I suffered for it. It's time to build bridges between school personnel and ADHD families for the success of everyone.Parent Dawn S. writes: "I can't tell you all of the things I learned I couldn't stop reading- I read it all in one sitting Both of my ADHD children will be better for your input in our lives Thank you, you are a blessing to our family and so many others ""Getting Schooled" offers a unique perspective on ADHD in schools. It accepts schools the way they are-this is not a theoretical book-and addresses the issue of parents, teachers, school counselors, and students working together. Luria presents her information in 4 sections, one for each of the above-mentioned parties. In each section, she offers 25 tips that will help understand and interact with the other groups.Luria advises that readers dive into each of the sections so that they can understand the concerns and struggles of others with whom they will, inevitably, interact.She explains, "I've been all of these roles (parent, teacher, counselor, and student) at one time or another, and know that each of us has a challenge regarding vis-a-vis ADHD that the others aren't fully aware of. When I moved out of my home state, I was a substitute teacher and counselor, and it was distressing to see how many teachers and counselors only receive a perfunctory and simplistic lesson on ADHD, while parents of these kids and the students themselves feel trapped by a system that appears ignorant and uncaring."Professor of Education at California State University, Dr. Betina Hsieh, herself a former teacher of challenging students and now a Teacher Trainer, had this to say about "Getting Schooled": "Yafa Crane Luria has done it again With her clear, readable set of tips for parents, teachers, counselors and students, she helps us all to understand the culture of ADHD with more depth, and does so with respect and understanding for all parties. Her multiple perspectives allow all parties to work collaboratively for the success and well-being of students with ADHD."Margit Crane's other books "How to Train Your Parents in 6-1/2 Days;" "A Year of Good-Enough Parenting;" and "Taking the CRAZY Out of Your Family Celebrations," are all available at Amazon.com or can be ordered by your local bookstore.

SUGAR IS A TWO-MOLECULE PROBLEM WITH NEUROTOXIC EFFECTSRefined sources of sugar have attracted much negative attention in the past few years with fructose clearly in the spotlight as chief villain. However, fructose represents only one part of a deadly duo, which invariably includes glucose. An equally destructive operator, glucose has the potential to inflict just as much, if not even greater harm than fructose as a component of free sugar. Generally comprising between 40 to 45 percent of high fructose corn syrup, glucose has managed to remain unobtrusively on the sidelines and has even been exonerated as the body
The Greens have been not only a political force and social conscience for Germany before reunification and after but also an inspiration to political groups and movements in many other countries. The Greens have raised the issues of ecology, gender, and grassroots democracy in protest against government. They have also had the rare opportunity to try converting themselves into a political party that works within the system. This is a book about their paradoxical situation and about the dilemmas all advocates of change face when they become powerful enough to negotiate with the status quo. The critical essays by German social scientists and activists also provide a detailed picture of the dynamics of the German Greens -- where their support has come from, the nature of the competing factions, and the place of feminism. The editors provide a substantial introduction. The flavor and texture of the Greens -- including their raucous public arguments and their innovative campaign tactics -- are suggested by the political posters included in the book and by a whole section of primary documents. The documents and the essays (except for one originally written in English) have been translated from the German. The result is to make available to English-speaking readers a view of a complex movement whose very name and color have become synonymous with social action in favor of the environment and the empowerment of people.

The definitive monograph on the work of sculptor, theorist, and Arte Povera pioneer Luciano Fabro Luciano Fabro (1936–2007) was an original member of Arte Povera, the materials- and experience-based art movement that emerged in Italy in the late 1960s. He went on to be exhibited internationally, becoming the first artist from the group to receive a major US retrospective, at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1992. Fabro’s work is elusive, yet he remains a critical favorite: in 2018, the leading art publication The Brooklyn Rail dedicated an entire issue to Fabro, wherein Dia Art Foundation director Jessica Morgan commented that Fabro’s oeuvre presented ‘a marriage of the modern and the antique […] as surprising and compelling today as at its moment of production.’ Written by esteemed critic and curator Margit Rowell, who collaborated with Fabro repeatedly in his later years, this comprehensive, heavily illustrated monograph is the first complete overview of Fabro’s career, published with the full support and participation of the artist’s estate and international galleries.
The essays in this volume represent a cross-section of current scholarship examining the implications of the concept of ffentlichkeit (the public sphere), originally conceived by the German philosopher J rgen Habermas in the early 1960s, in his socio-historical study Strukturwandel der ffentlichkeit (The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere). The contributions herein add to the discourse surrounding an evolving public sphere using diverse perspectives to explore a variety of contexts in which this concept appears and reappears. For almost forty years, the Southeast Conference for Languages, Literatures and Film (SCFLLF) has been a premier platform for the discussion and dissemination of the latest scholarship in the Humanities, with emphasis on non-English area studies. The current volume showcases some of the most impactful papers originally presented at the 25th SCFLLF, held in Asheville, North Carolina, in March of 2023.
The classical veterinary education revolves around the anatomy, physiology, diseases and their treatment of the bovine, avian, equine, swine species and the assorted small animals. This book discusses the reasoning of both the veterinary profession in its medical care, innovation and scientific logic and also the tools and laws of the business world which cannot be ignored, if a veterinary practice shall survive. It is the reasonable synthesis of both, which eventually leads to profound business success and a medical reputation of excellence.

Homeless, starving and shepherding two newly-orphaned infants, she heads in desperation for the warmth of the funeral pyres blazing beyond the city gates of corpselittered Trondheim.
