The Book of Facts and Trivia
Author: Terri Schlichenmeyer
Publisher: Visible Ink Press
ISBN: 1578598346
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 482
Book Description
Entertaining, informative, and fun. Educational, trivial, and profound. Astonishing, amazing, and surprising. That’s history! Take a weird and wonderful tour of American history with this treat of stories, trivia, and facts! From Juan Ponce de León to John Wayne to Jane Doe to the little-known stories hidden inside bigger historical events, The Book of Facts and Trivia: American History combines the educational, profound, and trivial into a rich account of American history facts (and the interesting role Johns—and Juans and Janes—played along the way)! You’ll learn about the United States through hundreds of absorbing stories and interesting tidbits such as ... Our sixth president, John Quincy Adams (1767-1848), had a pet alligator while in the White House. Graceland, located in Memphis, Tennessee, is America's second-most visited home. The first is Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. In 1970, Continental Airlines made it a policy that every disembarking male passenger got a kiss on the cheek from a stewardess. Twenty to twenty-five percent of cowboys in the mid-1800s were black. The first public service announcement meant to encourage Americans not to litter appeared in 1956. Washington is the most common city/town/village name in America, followed by Springfield and Franklin. Actor Jack Black’s mother was a satellite engineer and author who worked on the Hubble Telescope. Most of the Continental Congress officially signed the Declaration of Independence on July 2, 1776 (not July 4!). The Food Marketing Institute estimates that some two million shopping carts are stolen each year. Kansas City, Missouri, leads the nation in the number of fountains inside its city limits. The Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall with a waist that's 35 feet across. And many more American history facts! An absorbing guide to history, The Book of Facts and Trivia is a treat of stories, facts, and trivia guaranteed to both inform and entertain. It’s a feast of fun oddities and compelling stories that make history delightfully entertaining and eye-opening!

What We Sow
Author: Jennifer Jewell
Publisher: Timber Press
ISBN: 1643263153
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
An insightful, personal, and timely exploration into the wonderful world of seeds. In What We Sow, Jennifer Jewell brings readers on an insightful, year-long journey exploring the outsize impact one of nature's smallest manifestations—the simple seed. She examines our skewed notions where "organic" seeds are grown and sourced, reveals how giant multinational agribusiness has refined and patented the genomes of seeds we rely on for staples like corn and soy, and highlights the efforts of activists working to regain legal access to heirloom seeds that were stolen from Indigenous peoples and people of color. Throughout, readers are invited to share Jewell's personal observations as she marvels at the glory of nature in her Northern California hometown. She admires at the wild seeds she encounters on her short daily walks and is amazed at the range of seed forms, from cups and saucers to vases, candelabras, ocean-going vessels, and airliners. What We Sow is a tale of what we choose to see and what we haven't been taught to see, what we choose to seed and what we choose not to seed. It urgently proves that we must work hard to preserve and protect the great natural diversity of seed.

Safety First! Target Zero! No Harm! You repeat it often. You’ve plastered it all over the office and at the worksites. But do you really mean it? Think about your actions and decisions over the last year. Do they all make the workplace safer? Did you ever sacrifice safety for production? Even a little bit? This book is intended to be your mirror. How do people in your organization describe your safety leadership? Do you know? They, not you, decide what kind of safety leader you are by interpreting your words, actions, decisions, and behaviors. This book will not tell you what your safety vision should be, what Zero means, or whether you should aim for Zero. But it will show you how to be a credible safety leader. Sincerity + Consistency = Credibility. A credible safety leader must consistently demonstrate they are sincere in their commitment to safety, whatever it is.

This book describes twelve traits people are looking for from a credible safety leader, using stories based on real experiences in dozens of companies around the world. This book also shows you how to: Know the Talk - specifically understand what your safety vision means Walk the Talk - consistently demonstrate your safety commitment Hear the Talk - understand how your words, actions, and behaviors are interpreted Safety leadership is hard. It’s a 24/7 job, and the stakes are as high as they can get: people’s lives. This book won’t make it easy, but will make it easier.

Survival of the City
Author: Edward Glaeser
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0593297709
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
One of our great urbanists and one of our great public health experts join forces to reckon with how cities are changing in the face of existential threats the pandemic has only accelerated Cities can make us sick. That’s always been true—diseases spread more easily when more people are close to one another. And cities have been demonized as breeding grounds for vice and crime from Sodom and Gomorrah on. But cities have flourished nonetheless because they are humanity’s greatest invention, indispensable engines for creativity, innovation, wealth, and civilization itself. But cities now stand at a crossroads. During the global COVID crisis, cities grew silent; the normal forms of socializing ground to a halt. How permanent are these changes? Advances in technology mean that many people can opt out of city life as never before. Will they? Are we on the brink of a post-urban world? City life will survive, but individual cities face terrible risks, argue Edward Glaeser and David Cutler, and a wave of urban failure would be absolutely disastrous. In terms of intimacy and inspiration, nothing can replace what cities offer. But great cities have always demanded great management, and our current crisis has exposed fearful gaps in our capacity for good governance. In America, Glaeser and Cutler argue, deep inequities in health care and education are a particular blight on the future of our cities; solving them will be the difference between our collective good health and a downward spiral to a much darker place.
