Garden Rescue comes to the aid of gardeners everywhere - helping to identify problems quickly and prevent them from happening again. Whether your wisteria is wilting, your rose bush isn't flowering, or your fig tree is failing to produce any fruit, it helps to distinguish between a minor issue that is not a cause for panic, and a major problem that could wipe out a whole crop or kill a favorite plant.

Inside Jo is a journey waiting to happen. As she treks across the rugged Australian landscape on a rescue mission, Jo finds she is capable of so much more than she imagined. But she must face those things in herself and tear aside old habits, if she is to emerge from the cocoon of her old life. Her guide is a wise old childhood friend, who knows more about who Jo was, and who she will become, than Jo herself does. Her map is the energy system of the body known as the chakras. Understanding how to live life through each energy centre opens Jo up to new possibilities, and she discovers her relationship to everyone and everything is not only part of, but essential to, her success. Because this is more than one womans journey. Her rescue mission is part of a bigger picture. The Earth has chakras too.

Smart. Funny. Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.

The engaging adventure novel to support social and emotional learning for our youth today The scene was chaotic on the shore of the Opa River. A young woman darted from her kayak and raced to a large boulder along the riverbank. She stopped abruptly and shifted her gaze up the river. A boy in a yellow life jacket was heading her way, adrift in the middle of a raging rapid that was flowing directly toward a large, undercut boulder. Her expression was deadly serious as she retrieved the end of the rope from her rescue bag. She would have one chance to save him, and she knew her throw had to be perfect. The water struck the boulder with such force that spray was thrust skyward, creating a dark and threatening mood on the river. As the boy neared the large boulder, he shifted his legs to try to fend off the rock. The rope arched skyward on a perfect trajectory and the yellow bag landed directly in his hands. What happened next was surreal to everyone who witnessed the events on the river that fateful day.

From New York Times bestseller Maureen Callahan, a "harrowing, incendiary" exposé of the real Kennedy Curse—the family’s generations-long legacy of misogyny, murder, and mayhem (Karen Abbott). "The must-read book of the summer" —Megyn Kelly The Kennedy name has long been synonymous with wealth, power, glamor, and—above all else—integrity. But this carefully constructed veneer hides a dark truth: the pattern of Kennedy men physically and psychologically abusing women and girls, leaving a trail of ruin and death in each generation’s wake. Through decades of scandal after scandal—from sexual assaults to reputational slander, suicides to manslaughter—the family and their defenders have kept the Kennedy brand intact. Now, in Ask Not, bestselling author and journalist Maureen Callahan reveals the Kennedys’ hidden history of violence and exploitation, laying bare their unrepentant sexism and rampant depravity while also restoring these women and girls to their rightful place at the center of the dynasty’s story: from Jacqueline Onassis and Marilyn Monroe to Carolyn Bessette, Martha Moxley, Mary Jo Kopechne, Rosemary Kennedy, and many others whose names aren’t nearly as well known but should be. Drawing on years of explosive reportage and written in electric prose, Ask Not is a long-overdue reckoning with this fabled family and a consequential part of American history that is still very much with us. At long last, Callahan redirects the spotlight to the women in the Kennedys’ orbit, paying homage to those who freed themselves and giving voice to those who, through no fault of their own, could not.
