Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving is a highly accessible craft — over, under is the basic technique — but the stumbling block for many would-be weavers has been the high cost of a commercial loom. The Weaving Explorer removes that barrier, inviting crafters and artists to try out an amazing range of techniques and creative projects that are achievable with a simple homemade loom, or no loom at all! Weavers Deborah Jarchow and Gwen W. Steege take inspiration from the world of folk weaving traditions, adding a contemporary spin by introducing an unexpected range of materials and home dec projects. From sturdy rag fabric grocery bags to freeform wire baskets, delicately woven thread bracelets to colorful woven rugs, crafters will delight in exploring the opportunities to make their own personal variations on these beautiful — and functional — creations.
Book Synopsis 9 1/2 Narrow by : Patricia Morrisroe
Download or read book 9 1/2 Narrow written by Patricia Morrisroe and published by Gotham. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A funny, poignant coming-of-age memoir of love, loss, and the shoes that carry us through. From baby booties to orthopaedic brogues (and all the killer heels in between), shoes mark important rites of passage, reminding us of both the good and bad times- the road not taken, the prince who fled, and the people who've meant the most along the way. A longtime shoe enthusiast, Patricia Morrisroe has a vivid memory of the confirmation wedgies that celebrated her entrance to adulthood; the granny boots that marked her first love; the ostrich flats she wore to a girlfriend's funeral; and the New Balance sneakers she bought her elderly mother who was losing her balance and too proud to use a cane. Weaving tidbits of cultural history into her personal story, Morrisroe gives us a brief survey of shoes through five decades, as well as a witty and compassionate look at the unforgettable men and women who walked beside her. There's the grandfather who gave legendary foot massages after dinner; the Woody Allen-type boyfriend who fell in love with her Annie Hall oxfords; the husband whose vast collection of vintage Puma sneakers threatened to overwhelm their apartment and detail their marriage; and most important, the spirited and invincible mother who admired and sometimes envied her daughter's freedom and opportunities. With Morrisroe's charming sense of humor and irresistible voice, 9� Narrowis an authentic, entertaining, and ultimately poignant tale of an every-woman's life in shoes. Praise for 9� Narrow'9� Narrowis a 10! A girl becomes a woman and shares her memories, her loves, her family, and her shoes. You'll identify with Patricia - laugh with her and at her - page after page.' Ilene Beckerman, author of Love, Loss, and What I Wore'9� Narrow is an utterly charming - I might say fleet-footed - memoir about entering life with big (but narrow!) feet and bigger dreams. Patricia Morrisroe depicts the agonies of growing up as a born sophisticate in a Catholic family and a small town with an enviable lightness of touch - and a comic's sense of timing. It is hard to read this book without laughing - or occasionally grimacing - in recognition at the truth of an observation or situation, leaving one wondering how someone else has figured out exactly how you feel about everything from getting a bad perm to Bergdorf's shoe department.' Daphne Merkin, author of The Fame Lunches'Patricia Morrisroe writes with the sharpness of a stiletto and the wit of a Louboutin.' Patricia Volk author of Shocked My Mother, Schiaparelli, and Me'I love shoes, and this delightful memoir shines a light on all things shoe, as well as all things personal. Patricia Morrisroe's life unfolds through her wedges, ruby shoes, T-strap heels, and Manolo slingbacks. As I read it, all my memories came back in a flood, and yours will too.' Delia Ephron (7� Narrow) author of Sister Mother Husband Dog- (Etc.)

Book Synopsis Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States by : National Research Council
Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
Download or read book Dear Data written by Giorgia Lupi and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equal parts mail art, data visualization, and affectionate correspondence, Dear Data celebrates "the infinitesimal, incomplete, imperfect, yet exquisitely human details of life," in the words of Maria Popova (Brain Pickings), who introduces this charming and graphically powerful book. For one year, Giorgia Lupi, an Italian living in New York, and Stefanie Posavec, an American in London, mapped the particulars of their daily lives as a series of hand-drawn postcards they exchanged via mail weekly—small portraits as full of emotion as they are data, both mundane and magical. Dear Data reproduces in pinpoint detail the full year's set of cards, front and back, providing a remarkable portrait of two artists connected by their attention to the details of their lives—including complaints, distractions, phone addictions, physical contact, and desires. These details illuminate the lives of two remarkable young women and also inspire us to map our own lives, including specific suggestions on what data to draw and how. A captivating and unique book for designers, artists, correspondents, friends, and lovers everywhere.
Book Synopsis Best of Norman Rockwell by : Tom Rockwell

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norman Rockwell's son, Tom, has put together the absolute finest collection of his father's bounteous body of work, illustrations that bespeak the golden glow of pre- and post-WWII Americana. Rockwell senior, who said he depicted life “as I would like it to be,” chronicled iconic visions of American life: the Thanksgiving turkey, soda fountains, ice skating on the pond, and small-town boys playing baseball-not to mention the beginning of the civil rights movement. Now, the best-selling collection of Rockwell's most beloved illustrations, organized by decade, is available in a refreshed edition. With more than 150 images-oil paintings, watercolors, and rare black-and-white sketches--this is an uncommonly faithful Rockwell treasury. The original edition has sold nearly 200,000 copies.

Download or read book The Best Place written by Danya Fast and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In both local and international imaginations, Vancouver, Canada, is often celebrated as one of the world’s most beautiful, cosmopolitan, and livable cities. Simultaneously, the city continues to be ground zero for successive waves of public health emergency and intervention, including a recent and unprecedented drug overdose crisis driven by the proliferation of illicitly manufactured fentanyl and related analogs in the local drug supply. In The Best Place: Addiction, Intervention, and Living and Dying Young in Vancouver, Danya Fast explores these politics of place from the perspectives of young people who use drugs. Those who are the subject of this book were in many ways relegated to the social, spatial, and economic margins of the city. Yet, they were also often at the very center of city life and state projects, including the project of protecting life in the context of the current overdose crisis.
Book Synopsis Being Dead Otherwise by : Anne Allison
Download or read book Being Dead Otherwise written by Anne Allison and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an aging population, declining marriage and childbirth rates, and a rise in single households, more Japanese are living and dying alone. Many dead are no longer buried in traditional ancestral graves where descendants would tend their spirits, and individuals are increasingly taking on mortuary preparation for themselves. In Being Dead Otherwise Anne Allison examines the emergence of new death practices in Japan as the old customs of mortuary care are coming undone. She outlines the proliferation of new industries, services, initiatives, and businesses that offer alternative means---ranging from automated graves, collective grave sites, and crematoria to one-stop mortuary complexes and robotic priests---for tending to the dead. These new burial and ritual practices provide alternatives to long-standing traditions of burial and commemoration of the dead. In charting this shifting ecology of death, Allison outlines the potential of these solutions to radically reorient sociality in Japan in ways that will impact how we think about the end of life, identity, tradition, and culture in Japan and beyond.
Book Synopsis A Man Without Shoes by : John Sanford
Download or read book A Man Without Shoes written by John Sanford and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written between 1943 and 1946, A Man Without Shoes – an epic novel of the immigrant experience in America – was finally self-published in 1951 after over 30 rejections. As Sanford explained 'in 1947, it was a new kind of cold altogether: McCarthyism, it was called, and hard weather was no longer on the way, -it was here. For A Man Without Shoes, the sixteen seasons of the next four years were all of them winter. During that period, the book was submitted to some thirty publishers, and thirty-some times it was declined.' The novel was considered too politically radical and leftist for the mainstream publishers at the dawn of the McCarthy era.
