Jane King is very much present in these poems, though never in
obvious autobiographical ways. She is the observant eye taking in
the beauties and droughts, climatic and human, she sees in St Lucia
and in the semi-public lives of her neighbours. Hers is also the
inward eye that plumbs dream states, the unconscious and the
alarming darkness that the free-floating imagination sometimes
reaches. If the poems selected from her previous collections, In to
the Centre and Fellow Traveller have a greater focus on the
absurdities of race, the traps of history and the dread context of
Caribbean postcolonial politics in the 1980s and early 90s, and
witty acidic poems on gender and male betrayal, Performance Anxiety
takes further those signs in the earlier collections that Jane King
is a distinctively original explorer of the inner person, and of
the world on the margins of perception.

An in-depth account of the life and career of Minnesota's first
modern architect Elizabeth "Lisl" Scheu Close (1912-2011) left an
indelible mark on Minnesota's built landscape during her six
decades as an architect. In 1938, with her husband, Winston Close,
she founded the state's first architecture firm dedicated to
modernism. In addition to designing the first International Style
house in Minneapolis, the firm also created more than 250 handsome
and efficiently planned modern residences. One of few women who
were practicing architects in the mid-twentieth century, she blazed
a trail for future generations of women in the profession. As Jane
King Hession shows, the trajectory of Lisl's architectural career
was shaped by the political, economic, and aesthetic upheavals of
the twentieth century. Raised in a renowned modern house in Vienna,
Austria, Lisl was exposed to revolutionary ideas in art and
architecture at a young age. Forced to emigrate to the United
States as the Nazis rose to power in Europe, she completed her
architectural education at MIT. During the Depression, she
struggled to find work and encountered challenges as a young woman
in the field. In her pursuit of and devotion to a singular and
successful career as a modern architect, she proved herself to be
talented, determined, and adept at negotiating obstacles. Through
documentation of Lisl's projects, this personal and professional
biography also explores multiple aspects of modern architecture,
including the innovative use of new materials and technologies, the
design of prefabricated houses, and the relationship between
residential design and changing American lifestyles.

Join Adam and Sophie Blake as they attend Chillsville Elementary
and begin to question the spooky sights and sounds in the hallways
of their new school. Twins Adam and Sophie Blake think everything
about their new school is creepy.... The other kids have strange
names-like Frank N. Stein and Berta Graves-and their new teacher,
Ms. Wolf, gives science lessons about killer ants and bats. Not to
mention, the class pet is a huge, hairy spider! But their old
school was never this exciting... Just as the twins begin to think
Chillsville Elementary is a cool school, they start to see spooky
shadows and hear howling in the school's empty tower. Soon Adam and
Sophie start to wonder if it is really a ghoul school?
Twins Sophie and Adam Blake return to the halls of Chillsville
Elementary as they prepare to welcome newcomer Batsy Fangly with an
excitingly spooky Monster Bash. With large ears and pointy teeth,
newcomer Batsy Fangly is the strangest person to ever grace the
halls of Chillsville Elementary. Despite her spooky appearance, the
kids of Chillsville welcome Batsy the best way they know how: a
Monster Bash. But when Sophie and Adam show up to the party in
their best clothes, only to discover everyone else is in their
scariest costumes, they aren't sure how to fit in. Trying their
hardest to be like everyone else, Sophie and Adam muster the
courage to take a trip through the haunted house... and try their
hardest to survive.
In this spooky addition to Jane King's Ghoul School series, a pair
of twins set out to discover the secret of the mystery meat in Cook
Count's food. Twins Adam and Sophie Blake are so hungry, they're
dying for lunch. But when they see the dark, spooky cafeteria at
Chillsville Elementary's and the new cook that looks just like a
vampire, they suddenly lose their appetites. The twins would rather
starve than eat Cook Count's gross-looking food, but their
classmate's seem to love it. Until one by one, the kids start
getting sick and it's always the weird new cook who takes them
home... or someplace else! Written for those who want thrillers
like their older siblings, Ghoul School gives young readers the
chills they want without the nightmares.
Much more has been written about Charles Warren Fairbanks than
about his wife, Cornelia Cole Fairbanks. Documents in archives and
libraries, historical records, newspapers of the time, and personal
letters from Mrs. Fairbanks to her husband have made it possible to
learn more about this fascinating woman. Writings of historians
about the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries put her
story in the context of her times. She had been among one of the
early generations of women to graduate from college. She married an
ambitious young lawyer and read law to help and advise him as he
built his practice as a railroad lawyer in the Gilded Age.
Throughout his life, he read his speeches to her for her comments
before he delivered them. She raised their five children as he was
investing in business and becoming involved in politics and was an
important advisor to him as he campaigned successfully to become
Senator from Indiana and later, Vice President with President
Theodore Roosevelt. She became one of the most popular hostesses in
the nation's capital and was the only woman who could enter a
drawing room without immediately seeking out the most influential
persons in the room. Gracious and charming, she treated all with
equal respect.

The pulpits of the Church of the Brethren are predominately filled
by men. With a few exceptions most women pastors are Pastors of
Visitation or of Christian Education and not in the pulpit as the
Pastor of a church. Mary Jane's ministerial classes were also
predominately men. A number of them felt they had only to attend
and complete the basic requirements to become ordained. They were
right. However, as she found out, this did not hold true for a
woman. You Can't Get There From Here is the personal story of a
woman called by God into His ministry. It takes you step by step
through her exciting, yet frustrating, journey. As she struggled to
follow the leading of her Lord, Satan seemed to do everything in
his power to stop her. Walk with her as time and time again she
stepped out in faith-placing her future in God's hands. While at
times it was difficult to relive the experience, family and friends
encouraged her to write this book. In January 2006, Mary Jane was
re-licensed into the ministry at the West Shore Church of the
Brethren. Once again on the road to ordination.
This collection of essays has been compiled as a tribute to the
work of Psychologist, Peter Lomas who celebrated his 75th birthday
earlier this year. Peter Lomas trained as a Freudian psychoanalyst
at the Institute of Psycho-analysis in London. Gradually becoming
more heterodox in his views about both the practice of
psychotherapy and the training of psychotherapists. rejecting the
ideal of the neutral analytic stance in favor of a more direct
interpersonal dialogue. This approach has led him to be regarded as
something of a maverick by more orthodox therapist. Lucy King
trained as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist with the Philadelphia
Association. She works in private practice and for the Cambridge
University Counseling Service. She was a founder member of the
Cambridge Society of Psychotherapy.
