Angel's Choice $5.98 Almost eighteen, Anastasia was almost burned out At least four hours a day at the piano, plus school work and nothing else can do that to a girl who at one time could giggle and say, "Course I've got a name." She watched her sister Helen dress for dates with Tex Whitmore, half owner of the Ching Chong Gardens, the upscale nightclub housed in what had originally been a bordello and Speak Easy. She wondered why she herself could only wear white blouses and drab gray skirts and why was forbidden to play in public while she knew she had been ready for the concert stage years earlier. Only once had she disobeyed. That was on her sixteenth birthday and she and Paul had snuck out. That memory of playing the piano with a jazz group down on 17th Street was golden. She longed to go back. There was a reason that Kansas City in the thirties was called Jazz Town.The night Helen borrowed the green evening gown from the shop, Asia was on the edge of rebellion. As she laid her hand on Timmy's and walked into the club imagining how it would be after a successful concert, she returned the slight smile from the man on the staircase. Leslie Saunders slid his glass across the bar for a refill when he saw that smile. Benjamin Alice was both friend and boss, but they didn't need that kind of trouble. Word had it that people were getting tired of a city run by a crooked politician.Helen claimed that when Ben spoke to a beautiful woman, his voice sounded like one of the big cats at the zoo in Swope Park. She didn't like the way her sister and Ben looked at each other during the tango, but she nearly panicked when he led her to the piano.Ben laughed when Asia picked out a one finger version of Mary Had a Little Lamb, was amused when she played Ave Maria in the crowded nightclub, and was completely captivated even before she segued into Rhapsody in Blue. He had a brief picture of her wearing Granny Mari's emeralds, and gave no thought to the supposed curse which |

Beethoven's Letters, 1790-1826, From The Collection Of L. Nohl. Also His Letters To The Archduke Rudolph. Tr. By Lady Wallace $31.26 General Books publication date: 2009Original publication date: 1866Notes: This is a black and white OCR reprint of the original. It has no illustrations and there may be typos or missing text.When you buy the General Books edition of this book you get free trial access to Million-Books.com where you can select from more than a million books for free.Excerpt: RETROSPECT. 11 To Eleonore von Breuning, -- Bonn. The beautiful neckcloth, embroidered by your own hand, was the greatest possible surprise to me; yet, welcome as the gift was, it awakened within me feelings of saduess. Its effect was to recall former days, and to put me to shame by your noble conduct to me. I, indeed, little thought that you still considered me worthy of your remembrance. Oh! if you could have witnessed my emotions yesterday when this incident occurred, you would not think that I exaggerate in saying that such a token of your recollection brought tears to my eyes, and made me feel very sad. Little as I may deserve favour in your eyes, believe me, my dear friend, (let me still call you so,) I have suffered, and still suffer severely from the privation of your friendship. Never can I forget you and your dear mother. You were so kind to me that your loss neither can nor will be easily replaced. J know what I have forfeited, and what you were to me, but in order to fill up this blank I must recur to scenes equally painful for you to hear and for me to detail. As a slight requital of your kind souvenir, I take the liberty to send you some variations, and a Eondo with violin accompaniment. I have a great deal to do, or I would long since have transcribed the Sonata I promised you. It is as yet a mere sketch in manuscript, and to copy it would be a difficult task even for the clever and practised Paraquiu [counter-bass in the Electoral orchestra]. You can have the Eondo copied, and return the score. What I now send is the only one of my works at all suitable for you ; |

On that day the sovereigns allied against France made, at the head of their troops, their famous entry into Paris. The man who had deemed Europe too small a theatre for his acts was to be shut up in the little island of Elba, while the whole colossal edifice that he had raised was falling! In Italy, of the governments that had arisen during the Napoleonic period, there remained in existence only that of King Joachim Murat, who in view of the fall of Napoleon’s fortunes had abandoned him, and had come to an agreement with Austria. But King Joachim, a man of impressionable and vacillating character, was soon alarmed by the news that reached him of the Congress of Vienna, where the great Powers showed slight disposition to leave him in possession of the Kingdom of Naples. He doubted whether Austria herself would care to keep the promise made to him in the days of struggle. So he became reconciled with his brother-in-law, and when Napoleon accomplished his wonderful return from Elba to Paris, Joachim, who handled political questions in the manner of a brilliant commander of cavalry, decided to face the situation sword in hand and to |

Chautauqua $9.99 Chautauqua traces the history of the traveling Chautauqua movement through the lives of several fictional performers. The main protagonist, Marcie Grover, is a Nebraska farm girl, who, at age fifteen, wants to leave the farm and travel with the Redpath Chautauqua. Her father finds no objection, since her farm labors are negligible, and so, she is hired as a childcare girl to keep the children of the Chautauqua audience busy so they can enjoy the performances. The book covers the lives of its fictional characters, Marcie Grover, Sally Conn, José Cruz, and Helen Kinleft, among others, from the close of the 19th Century until the end of the 20th Century. We experience the struggles, successes, fears, excitement and pride of their lives.When José Cruz and his horse, Sovereign, perform slight of hand magic on the Chautauqua stage we are there in the audience and when William Jennings Bryan makes a fiery speech, we hear it with Marcie.As Helen Kinleft performs her bareback riding act learned at the Barnum and Bailey Circus, we are able to enjoy it also. And we triumph with Sally Conn in later years, as a successful New York fashion designer who meets the right man.These are only some of the interesting characters whose lives we find woven through and about Chautauqua, the movement that changed America. |

Dives (Bird) $46.99 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Dives is a genus of Neotropical birds in the family Icteridae. It contains three species: • Cuban Blackbird, Dives atroviolacea • Melodious Blackbird, Dives dives • Scrub Blackbird, Dives warszewiczi The Melodious Blackbird lives in Mexico and Central America; the Scrub Blackbird in Ecuador and Peru. The three species look similar, with plumage ranging from brownish black in juveniles to black with iridescence (green, blue, or violet) in adults, slightly more iridescent in males. The bare parts are black and the eyes are dark brown. The upper edge of the bill (the culmen) is curved, not flattened as in many other icterids, and the bill has a slight hook at the tip. The songs are varied and pleasant. If the ranges of the Melodious Blackbird and the northern populations of the Scrub Blackbird overlapped, they would be indistinguishable in the field apart from voice, and some authorities lump these two species into one; on the other hand some split the Scrub Blackbird into two species. |

Gifts and Interests $44.4 New – According to a common understanding of economics, economists attempt to understand and explain societal reality in the light of individual self-interest.

He may employ the knowledge of a Stradivari in selecting and seasoning wood; he may rival the Amati brothers in the science of acoustics and in dexterity of hand; he may avoid every pitfall, obey every rule of the craft and at last complete a matchless organ of melody. Let it now come to the hour for which it was born. Let it be about to yield forth such “a soft and solemn- breathing sound as might create a soul Under the ribs of death.” At this moment all can be set at nought by a slight tampering with the pegs. The final step of tuning lacking, all is lacking. If the stringsare not put into accord, the work of the master- maker is annulled. The long prophecy of music is done away. The seed-time and tending fail of their harvest. “Oh, the little more, and how much it is! And the little less, and what worlds away!” Oh, the little more of adjustment and fellowship, of understanding and co-operation amongst the nations of the world, and how much it would have been! The little attention to making string accord with string, the little effort at mutual comprehension, and what universal music might have arisen to the skies! And the little less, the little sowing abroad of half-truths, the little nursing of animosities, the little slipping of the pegs of diplomacy, the little loosening of the strings of international friendship . . . and what worlds away! The promise of the great instrument is turned to shame. When wondrous, cosmic melodies should have issued from the spinning, singing planet, strident, shrieking, demoniacal screams fill the hissing air. Human nature in essence and in bulk seems to stand condemned. The structure of mankind however, is … |

Gunmans Reckoning $16.28 New – For the first moment Donnegan was not sure; it was not until there was a slight faltering in the deal–an infinitely small hesitation which only a practiced eye like that of Donnegan’s could have noticed–that he was sure. The winner was crooked. Yet the hand was interesting for all that. He had done the master trick, not only giving himself the winning hand but also giving each of the others a fine set of cards. |

Harold Imports 8-1/4 by 10-1/2 Nonstick Roasting Rack $3.19 HIC’s non-stick roasting rack allows you to roast poultry or meat without touching the bottom of the pan. This is critical to roasting as this type of cooking refers to dry heat. Without using a roast pan, the poultry or meat would boil in its own juices. Using a roasting rack is also a healthy way to prepare roasts as it allows the fat to drip off the poultry and meat and rest under the rack. Non-stick finish ensures that the poultry skin won’t tear when lifting from the rack. Handwash with a non-abrasive cleaner. -Features: -Holds poultry and meat above the bottom of pan for even roasting -Rack measures 10 1/2″ X 8 1/4″ -Slight V shape ensures poultry and meat will stay on rack during roasting -Hand wash with non-abrasive cleaner -Non-stick finish ensures poultry skin won’t tear when lifting from rack |

Hindu Ethics $19.81 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:CHAPTER II BUDDHIST AND JAIN ETHICS, AND EGOISTIC HEDONISM There are contained in the Upanishads the germs of the great Hindu philosophical systems. The most famous of these is the Vedanta, a system of philosophy which found its ablest and most impressive exponent in Sankaracharya. In our discussion of the ethics of the Upanishads, for the sake of clearness, we went on the assumption that their philosophical groundwork was on the lines of Vedantic monism. This assumption was justifiable. The great Upanishads, at any rate so far as the main lines of their teaching is concerned, admit of this monistic explanation, while, on the other hand, where other philosophical tendencies appear, their distinctive conceptions have but comparatively slight influence on the ethical outcome. At this point, however, attention may be drawn to the fact that the foundations of other systems are present in the Upanishads, and that when these systems came to be clearly differentiated from each other, certain of them were recognized as orthodox, in spite of the divergences in their doctrine. The ground for this ascription of orthodoxy was their supposed agreement with Vedic teaching. They were not the speculations of schools which rejected all authority but that which reason would admit. They were nothing more than expositions of more ancient teaching from particular standpoints. We propose to consider now in as brief space as possible three systems of thought which lay no claim to orthodoxy, rejecting as they do theauthority of the Vedic writings. They are taken at this point because they were evolved before the six great systems received the form given to them by their chief exponents. The first two, Buddhism and Jainism, have much in common with each other, while the last, the system of t |
