And this is Art Works the weekly podcast produced at the National Endowment for the Arts. Jo Reed: That was actress, author, and former chair of the National Endowment for the Arts, Jane Alexander. So of course it should be part of our government because government is about aiding people everywhere and giving them the opportunity for happiness, for fulfillment, for a good life, good health, etc., and the arts are part of that. And when you’re given a gift like this you have to utilize it, you have to use it. Jane Alexander: I feel that the arts are one of the greatest gifts that the creator has given us as human beings.

Then fellow student Albert Einstein takes an interest in her, and the world turns sideways. But Mitza is smart enough to know that, for her, math is an easier path than marriage. Most twenty-year-olds are wives by now, not studying physics at an elite Zurich university with only male students trying to outdo her clever calculations. Mitza Maric has always been a little different from other girls. Was she simply Einstein's sounding board, an assistant performing complex mathematical equations? Or did she contribute something more? This novel resurrects Einstein's wife, a brilliant physicist in her own right, whose contribution to the special theory of relativity is hotly debated. In the tradition of Beatriz Williams and Paula McClain, Marie Benedict's The Other Einstein offers us a window into a brilliant, fascinating woman whose light was lost in Einstein's enormous shadow.

It is largely the cultural analysis of Twitter 2022, grafted onto whatever historical pivot point or social phenomena she is talking about. The pop culture analysis-which I largely agreed with-tended to be repetitive or superficial. In 2022, if you don't have you head in your own aforementioned butt, you are likely aware already that fitness programs can tend to focus on bodily sculpting instead of holistic health, or that the illusions of modeling (and now Instagram) can create unrealistic expectations for young women. I am largely familiar with the shifts of the last sixty years, and chapters on the Flappers or European history were more engaging to me, personally. I actually craved more historical analysis to understand how our collective opinion of the butt has mutated over the years. I am not sure there is enough room for all of this, which Radke acknowledges early on, trying to get ahead of the problem by saying her work does not claim to be an exhaustive history or political analysis of the butt. Radke is certainly ambitious, melding history, personal anecdotes, scholarly research, feminist political frameworks, and plenty of pop culture, all in a relatively short work. This is a fun book, which is not a descriptor usually at the forefront of a nonfiction work. Butts! Can't live without them, can't live without them!

Cate will need to use her weaponry and gadgets to get the drop on enemy agents. The game combines stylistic elements of James Bond espionage stories and games (such as GoldenEye 007) with a humorous attitude. No Ones Lives Forever is a first-person shooter with stealth elements, often focusing on remaining undetected and obtaining intelligence data. In missions around the globe, Agent Archer will find herself sniping assassins, stealing documents, and doing a host of other suitably sneaky, often deadly espionage tasks. Under the qualification of being available as a trained agent, Cate is given the authority to track down and investigate these H.A.R.M. Having been relegated to menial tasks over the years, Cate is finally given a chance to prove herself when a terrorist organization called H.A.R.M.

The reader soon discovers that the book is not about heaven but about the kingdom of God on earth. The title sets the stage for the intentional equivocation of important Biblical terms.

The second is arranged as a series of questions and answers (“What will the resurrected earth be like?” “What will our lives be like?” etc.). The first is devoted to a theology of heaven. The material is arranged into three parts. A lengthy bibliography with 140 references shows the breadth of his research, but numerous helpful works have been omitted.
