Short Careers $11.98 Though Short Careers is a masterfully emotive film score for the twisted, evil baseball player flick Ball of Wax, the songs lack the pop crunch of Eric Bachmann’s Archers of Loaf and the folk song structures of Crooked Fingers. Short Careers is reminiscent of the score work of two other indie gurus turned film composers — Stephin Merritt of the Magnetic Fields and Mac McCaughan of Superchunk and Portastatic. Like Merritt’s Eban & Charley, Short Careers lacks the pop center and rolling melodies so present in both musicians’ other projects, and it never really matches the accessibility of Portastatic’s Looking for Leonard. But it’s difficult for music to function as both a film score and an album, and Short Careers does excel in the former. The string arrangements on tracks like “Finding the Holes Filling the Gaps” are beautiful while being unsentimental. “Jimmy the Enforcer” has the feeling of a fun house — a twisted carnival underworld that glitters on the surface — and recalls both the theme from the film Boogie Nights and “Shadow’s Theme,” the Dark Fantastic’s ending to their first self-titled album. The title track is a somber, piano affair, equal parts David Lynch and Atom Egoyan. Short Careers proves that Eric Bachmann is the go-to guy for indie filmmakers, but that the score might not sell all that many records. ~ Charles Spano, Rovi Performers: Maria Taylor – Chords; Eunice Kang – Cello; Wade Rittenberry – Bass (Upright); Andrej Kurti – Violin; Eric Bachmann – Hand Percussion, Loops, Piano, Guitar; Evan Thomas – Drums

At Home with Computers $21.41 New technologies are profoundly reshaping the world around us. Home computers – unheard of two decades ago – now play an intimate role as personal possessions in many people’s lives. For some, computer games may be vital to winding-down after a busy day, while for others the home computer represents only work or is a means through which to socialize in cyberspace. Powerfully symbolic of both future and present trends, computers are increasingly seen as essential home purchases. This book is the first sustained examination of the revealing role computers play in our domestic lives. Do computers cause or help to resolve arguments? What role does gender play in negotiating their use? Who spends the most time with the computer? How does the importance of home computers change as we move from childhood through careers to retirement? Drawing upon topical theories from material culture, technology and consumption studies, Lally traces the social life of these machines and provides unique insights into the many different ways in which they are transformed into highly personal possessions. The result is an absorbing account of everyday life in the information age. This book will be of interest to anthropologists, geographers, sociologists and anyone who wants to get to know how their home computer affects their family life.

Bless This Home Office…With Tax Credits $9.95 Adam and Laura had everything worked out. Each morning, Laura left for her high-paying executive career while Adam stayed home in his sweats to take care of the kids, Clayton, Katy, and Baby Nick. It was the good life for Adam: mornings with Regis and Kathy Lee, hours spent cruising the Internet, episodes of Barney with Nick, and a few brief trips during the day for a double tall nonfat mocha or a meeting of his books-made-into-movies discussion group.As the holidays approached, however, Adam hit on a new business idea: He would hire himself out as a Christmas-letter writer making those impersonal letters even more impersonal. Cozy in his flannel shirt, Adam set about transforming his home office into an appropriately festive environment. But when Laura is unexpectedly downsized on Christmas Eve, the pair have a whole new set of quandaries. Why does Laura need to use Adam’s computer? When was the last time anyone cleaned the house? How will they share the laundry room-turned-home office?In this new Adam collection, Bless This Home Office, cartoonist Brian Basset once again features his endearingly funny characters who epitomize — in their own unique ways — the joys and challenges of contemporary family life. From baby-food-stained evening wear to fear of finances, from long family walks to computer-generated friendships, Adam portrays the humorous realities of raising a family while juggling commitments, careers, and community. Through it all, Adam and Laura keep a sense of perspective and a giant dose of family-oriented fun.Like the other Adam books before it — such as Minivanity and Life Begins at 6:40, Bless This Home Office will appeal to the millions of fans who counton Adam’s singularly amusing approach to life, especially as the number of people who work at home continues to rise. Whether they’re stay-at-home dads or morns, whether they’re home-based workers or corporate cogs, whether they’ve ever been a parent — everyone will enjoy this truly

Gaijin Yokozuna $51.99 At the age of eighteen, Chad Rowan left his home in rural Hawai’i for Tokyo with visions of becoming a star athlete in Japan’s national sport, sumo. Five years later, against the backdrop of rising U.S.-Japan economic tension, Rowan became the first gaijin (non-Japanese) to advance to sumo’s top rank, yokozuna. His historic promotion was more a cultural accomplishment than an athletic one, since yokozuna are expected to embody highly prized Japanese values such as hard work, patience, strength, and hinkaku, a special kind of dignity thought to be available only to Japanese. Perhaps the defining moment of the gaijin’s unique success occurred at the 1998 Nagano Olympics, when Rowan, chosen to personify Japanese to one of the largest television audiences in history, performed a sacred sumo ritual at the opening ceremony. Gaijin Yokozuna chronicles the events leading to that improbable scene at Nagano and beyond, tracing Rowan’s life from his Hawai’i upbringing to his 2001 retirement ceremony. Along the way it briefly examines the careers of two Hawai’i-born sumotori who paved the way for Rowan, Jesse Kuhaulua (Takamiyama) and Salevaa Atisanoe (Konishiki). The author shares stories from family members, coaches, friends, fellow sumo competitors, and of course Rowan himself, whom he accompanied on three Japan-wide exhibition tours. The work is further informed by volumes of secondary source material on sumo, Japanese culture, and local Hawai’i culture.

Leave Your Nose Ring at Home: Get the Job You Want by Creating a Powerful First Impression $7.4 Have you ever been in the middle of an interview and silently wondered how things were going? Wondered if you were still being considered for the job…or if you had already blown it? How would you feel if you knew that decision was made in the first few minutes? A new epidemic is affecting teens across the nation in their ability to get the necessary job experience to carry them throughout their careers.

Leave Your Nose Ring at Home is based on 20 years of bizarre, unusual, and absolutely crazy interviews that the author has encountered with young people.

Life Support: Three Nurses on the Front Lines $2.03 Life Support offers an intimate and important look at what nurses do for patients and their families. It takes us right to the bedside on hospital wards and home visits, in clinics and emergency rooms, capturing the drama of nurses’ work in the story of three RNs at Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital. Gordon’s heroines are nurse practitioner Ellen Kitchen, who bicycles through poor neighborhoods in Boston to visit elderly patients at home; oncology nurse Nancy Rumplik, whose technical skill and emotional support enable cancer patients to endure some of the most arduous high-tech medical treatments; and clinical nurse specialist Jeannie Chaisson, who helps new RNs and physicians begin their careers on a general medical floor. Life Support draws on the experience of these and other nurses to examine the history of their profession, the complex relationship between doctors and nurses, and the central role that nurses play in the final days of life, when care, not cure, is a patient’s main concern. In addition, the book makes a powerful critique of hospital restructuring and managed care. Gordon shows how understaffing, shorter hospital stays, layoffs, and replacement of nurses by unlicensed personnel are threatening the quality of care and shifting more of its burden onto patients’ families. She describes what consumers can do to resist these trends – through alliances with concerned providers.

Mi mama tambien trabaja!/ Mom Works Too! $0.01 The sensitively written Let’’s Talk About It Books encourage preschool-age and early-grades children to explore their feelings, deal with problems that trouble them, and understand others who have problems of their own. Each title speaks to a particular concern that children might encounter in the course of growing up.

A short section at the back of each book offers related advice to parents. Mi Mama Tambien Trabaja is the Spanish-language edition of its English counterpart Mom Works Too.

Michelle $0.01 She can be funny and sharp-tongued, warm and blunt, empathic and demanding. Who is the woman Barack Obama calls the boss ? In Michelle, Washington Post writer Liza Mundy paints a revealing and intimate portrait, taking us inside the marriage of the most dynamic couple in politics today. She shows how well they complement each other: Michelle, the highly organized, sometimes intimidating, list-making pragmatist; Barack, the introspective political charmer who won’t pick up his socks but shoots for the stars. Their relationship, like those of many couples with two careers and two children, has been so strained at times that he has had to persuade her to support his climb up the political ladder. And you can’t blame her for occasionally regretting it: In this campaign, it is Michelle who has absorbed much of the skepticism from voters about Obama. One conservative magazine put her on the cover under the headline Mrs. Grievance. Michelle’s story carries with it all the extraordinary achievements and lingering pain of America in the post-civil rights era. She grew up on the south side of Chicago, the daughter of a city worker and a stay-at-home mom in a neighborhood rocked by white flight. She was admitted to Princeton amid an angry debate about affirmative action and went on to Harvard Law School, where she was more comfortable doing pro-bono work for the poor than gunning for awards with the rest of her peers. She became a corporate lawyer, then left to train community leaders. She is modern in her tastes but likes to watch reruns of The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Brady Bunch. In this carefully reported biography, drawing upon interviews with more than one hundred people, including one with Michelle herself, Mundy captures the complexity of this remarkable woman and the remarkable life she has lived.

The Correspondence of William James $99.45 This sixth volume of a projected twelve continues the series of William James’s correspondence with family, friends, and colleagues that was begun in volume 4. Consisting of some 400 letters, with an additional 400 calendared, it offers a complete accounting of his correspondence for the years 1885-89.During this period and after years of false starts and procrastination, James completed most of the work on the book that was to become a classic in its field, The Principles of Psychology. It was also during these years that he became more directly involved in the world of psychical research. Most of his efforts in this area were devoted to Leonora Piper, the American trance medium, but he also found time for correspondence with fellow inquirers in Europe such as Frederic William Henry Myers and Edmund Gurney. James’s interest in his graduate students is apparent in his correspondence with, among others, George Santayana and Charles Augustus Strong, who in beginning their own academic careers still sought their mentor’s advice and support. Established correspondents — colleagues such as Josiah Royce, Granville Stanley Hall, Shadworth Hollway Hodgsone, Theodule Ribot, Charles Renouvier, and Charles Sanders Peirce — return in this volume as they continue their dialogue with James about the psychological and philosophical issues of the day.There were also many changes in James’s family life during these years — the death of his youngest son, Herman James, and the birth of his daughter, Margaret Mary. And, because his wife Alice and the children were away from home for long periods of time, letters to Alice dominate the volume — letters that reveal the emotional support andaffirmation that James drew from his wife. These were also the years when James was at his most sociable, sometimes making three or four social calls a day and reporting daily to Alice the bits of Cambridge and Boston gossip.
