After many years of planning, a visionary and attention grabbing building has taken shape in Munich in the form of the Oskar von Miller Forum. The centre was designed by the well known architectural office Herzog + Partner for international encounters between students of the architectural departments at Munich's Technical University.

The last time the Broncos were in the Super Bowl, star linebacker Von Miller had to watch from the sidelines because of an injured knee. Now his team had made it to the big game again . . . and Miller would not let this chance at a championship pass by.

Denver needed a big play to set the tone for the game so Von raced around the end of the line and smacked into Cam, swiping at the football. The ball bounced free--and Denver recovered! Touchdown! Would Von's big play lead his team to a big win? Young sports fans will feel like they're at the game as they follow Von Miller on his quest for a Super Bowl victory. Full-color photos and engaging play-by-play narratives will keep readers on the edge of their seats.

First published on the eve of the First World War, Keyserling's masterpiece offers a vivid portrait of a society on the verge of dissolution. A group of German aristocrats gathers at a seaside village on the Baltic Sea for a summer holiday in the early years of the twentieth century. The characters represent a cross-section of the upper classes of imperial Germany: a philandering baron, his jealous wife, a gallant cavalry officer, the elderly widow of a general, a cynical government official, a lady’s companion. Their lives, even on holiday, are regulated by rigid protocol and archaic codes of honour. But their quiet, disciplined world is thrown into disarray by the unexpected presence of Doralice, a young countess who has rebelled against social constraints by escaping from an arranged marriage and running away with a bourgeois artist. Gary Miller's new translation will find a new generation of readers for this neglected German classic. “Keyserling...understands how to describe a summer afternoon so that as the bright sunshine turns to twilight one has the sensation of a whole lifetime.” Hermann Hesse “For him, art consisted of questioning, kindness, self-discipline, music and dreams. He was never a leader, but he will always be loved.” Thomas Mann
