The art of getting lost : 365 days of adventure, big and small / by Leonard, Brendan,author.(CARDINAL)344395;

"The Art of Getting Lost will illuminate the details of dream trips, and inspiring readers to understand that adventure is not out of reach. Most of us face a couple of obstacles when it comes to living our Walter Mitty-esque adventure dreams: ideas of what to do, and concrete knowledge of how long those ideas will take. It's a long way from talking to some guy at the bar about his Grand Canyon Raft trip to going home and Googling a synopsis of how to make it happen, and then clicking around a guide company's website to find out if it takes three days or 30. But it won't be hard to flip through this book and get inspired."--Amazon.com.

It just grinds.' DJ Screw was a Houston DJ who became famous in the 1990s for slowing down rap songs (think: playing a 45 rpm record at 33 1/3 speed), and repeating key lyrics, while local rappers sometimes freestyled over the instrumental portions of the mix. The slowed-down sound became synonymous with Houston, and was often referred to as 'chopped & screwed.' It was literally homemade music; Screw recorded in his house, re-mixed the sessions to cassette tapes, and those tapes then went into cars that went booming into the same Houston streets that the local rappers were rapping about. The tapes became immensely popular, with hundreds of people lining up outside Screw's house every night. Eventually, Screwed Up Records & Tapes opened, selling nothing but Screw tapes, and it is still open, still selling nothing but Screw tapes, even though Screw died in 2000. This book blends narrative biography with oral history. Walker has talked to virtually everyone with a connection to Screw, from his immediate family and childhood friends from Smithville to his girlfriends and the rappers he worked with, and the book is rich with extended quotes from people in Screw's world"--

The dating divide : race and desire in the era of online romance / by Curington, Celeste Vaughan,1988-author.; Lundquist, Jennifer Hickes,author.; Lin, Ken-Hou,author.;

Introduction : dear Tinder, guess who's coming to dinner -- Where hate trumps love : the birth and legacy of antimiscegenation in the United States -- From the back porch to the computer screen : the rise of choice in courtship -- New rules? Gendered online engagement -- A Privilege endures: dating while white in the era of online dating -- The unique disadvantage: dating while black -- The Asian experience : resistance and complicity -- "Hey, you're Latin. Do you like to dance?" : the privilege and disadvantage of Latino/a daters -- Postracial multiracialism : a challenge to the white racial frame? -- Conclusion : abolishing the dating divide."The Dating Divide is the first comprehensive look at "digital-sexual racism," a distinct form of racism that is mediated and amplified through the impersonal and anonymous context of online dating. Drawing from large-scale behavioral data from a mainstream dating website, extensive archival research, and seventy-five in-depth interviews with daters of diverse racial backgrounds and sexual identities, Curington, Lundquist, and Lin illustrate how the seemingly open space of the internet interacts with the loss of social inhibition in cyberspace contexts, fostering openly expressed forms of sexual racism that are rarely exposed in face-to-face courtship markets. The Dating Divide is a fascinating look at how a contemporary conflux of individualization, consumerism, and the proliferation of digital technologies have given rise to a unique form of sexual racism in the era of swiping right-or left. The internet can be an equalizer, a seemingly level playing field, but the digital world also acts as an extension of and platform for the insidious prejudices and divisive impulses that affect social politics in the "real" world. Shedding light on how every click, swipe, or message can be linked to the history of racism and courtship in the United States, this compelling study uses data to show the racial biases at play in digital dating spaces"--Includes bibliographical references and index.

In this memoir, Simon details her fascination with Cuban culture as she grapples with the death of her mother. She also covers the struggle to get in and out of Cuba at a time when the country is labeled a pariah state. Yet over and over again, Simon manages to overcome international barriers and overcome language and cultural obstacles-- all in the name of her love for Luis"--

The full spectrum : a new generation of writing about gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, questioning, and other identities / by Levithan, David.(CARDINAL)529930; Merrell, Billy,1982-(CARDINAL)544573;

Teens are more aware of sexuality and identity than ever, and they're looking for answers and insights, as well as a community of others. In order to help create that community, YA authors David Levithan and Billy Merrell have collected original poems, essays, and stories by young adults in their teens and early 20s. The Full Spectrum includes a variety of writers-gay, lesbian, bisexual, straight, transitioning, and questioning-on a variety of subjects: coming out, family, friendship, religion/faith, first kisses, break-ups, and many others. This one of a kind collection will, perhaps, help all readers see themselves and the world around them in ways they might never have imagined. We have partnered with the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and a portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to them.970LAccelerated Reader AR

Running with the bulls : my years with the Hemingways / by Hemingway, Valerie,1940-(CARDINAL)466274;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 299-302) and index."A chance encounter in Spain in 1959 brought young Irish reporter Valerie Danby-Smith face-to-face with Ernest Hemingway. The interview was awkward and brief, but before it ended something had clicked into place. For the next two years, Valerie devoted her life to Hemingway and his wife, Mary, traveling with them through beloved old haunts in Spain and France and living with them during the tumultuous final months in Cuba. In name a personal secretary, but in reality a confidante and sharer of the great man's secrets and sorrows, Valerie literally came of age in the company of one of the greatest literary lions of the twentieth century." "Five years after his death, Valerie became a Hemingway herself when she married the writer's estranged son Gregory. Now, at last, she tells the story of the incredible years she spent with this extravagantly talented and tragically doomed family." "In Cuba, Valerie spent idyllic days and nights typing the final draft of A Moveable Feast, even as Castro's revolution closed in. After Hemingway shot himself, Valerie returned to Cuba with his widow, Mary, to sort through thousands of manuscript pages and smuggle out priceless works of art. It was at Ernest's funeral that Valerie, then a researcher for Newsweek, met Hemingway's son Gregory - and again a chance encounter drastically altered the course of her life. Their twenty-one-year marriage finally unraveled as Valerie helplessly watched her husband succumb to the demons that had plagued him since childhood." "From lunches with Orson Welles to midnight serenades by mysterious troubadours, from a rooftop encounter with Castro to numbing hospital vigils, Valerie Hemingway played an intimate, indispensable role in the lives of two generations of Hemingways."--BOOK JACKET.
