Conceived in the Gilded Age, the Ferry Building opened in 1898 as San Francisco's portal to the world—the terminus of the transcontinental railway and a showcase of civic ambition. In silent films and World's Fair postcards, nothing said "San Francisco" more than its soaring clock tower. But as acclaimed architectural critic John King recounts, the rise of the automobile and double-deck freeways severed the city from its beloved structure. King's narrative spans the rise and fall and rebirth of the Ferry Building, introducing colorful figures who fought to preserve its character.

Die Erben der Hebamme – und der vielleicht außergewöhnlichste Fürst des deutschen Hochmittelalters: Mit ihrem historischen Roman "Der Silberbaum" startet Bestseller-Autorin Sabine Ebert ihre neue Reihe über ein spannendes Kapitel deutscher Geschichte. Er war der vielleicht strahlendste Fürst seiner Zeit, ein Förderer der Städte, Minnedichter und Ausrichter glänzender Turniere: Heinrich der Erlauchte, Markgraf von Meißen und Landgraf von Thüringen.

There once was a girl with fireflies in her eyes and music in her soul. Remember her... she's important. She's the reason I panic-bought the little brick house on Maple Street, the one I lived next door to for eight magical years. Now that I'm back digging up floorboards and lost journals, I can't stop thinking about the two people who grew up here. You see, that girl was my best friend, and this house was once hers. She also had a big brother who was my everything before circumstances turned us into nothing more than memories.

Parlare di sport significa prima di tutto raccontare di persone. Ognuna di queste, sia che abbia vinto le olimpiadi o perso all’ultimo secondo, ha una propria storia.

Originada a partir de fenômenos históricos e sociais muito diversos, a moderna maçonaria foi organizada em obediências em 1717 em Londres, dando origem à chamada maçonaria especulativa ou seja, filosófica. Descrita, como uma associação essencialmente filosófica e filantrópica, como um sistema moral ilustrado por símbolos ou como uma ordem iniciática, a maçonaria proporciona conhecimento esotérico por meio de símbolos e rituais e incentiva seus membros a trabalhar pelo progresso da humanidade.

Kieran Murphy is an Irish mob boss and one of the most powerful men in Boston. When he walks me home, people step aside out of respect for him. He could have any woman he wants. So why does he have eyes only for me? Is it how he has to lift my chin with his fingers to keep my eyes level with his when he scolds me and how I cover my bottom instinctively when he tells me that I've earned a spanking? Or is it how I quiver at the thought of everything I'm too ashamed to beg him to do to me? Maybe it's all of those, but I'm pretty sure there's something else too.
