Our first book, Entertaining Friends: Easy Does It with 101 Rules of Thumb, was jammed with useful-often whimsical-information on everything from theming parties, simple suppers and sit-down dinners, with food and drinks quantities, to table decor, flowers, candles, even conversation starters. Houseguests? What's to say beyond sheets, right? You might be surprised. The concept goes back at least to the Ancient Greeks who coined the term "guest-friend" to mean the person would always be sheltered. It was also an unspoken treaty between individuals, even those from very different cultures. In our era, entertaining friends for an overnight or weekend is the most intimate experience one can have. Apart from sex of course and we're not going there! Our focus thus becomes people and places, subjects that lead to the second oldest pastime in the history of our world: storytelling. In these pages, you will find stories about hosting and guesting in Newport or the Cotswolds, in a West Virginia coal-mining town, on the banks of the Shannon or in the Hudson Valley. Oh, there are rules of thumb too, 101 of them. Plus our mix of cartoons and quotes, tips, quips, inspirations, and easy recipes for a welcoming lunch or supper. For those of us with a taste for the macabre or outlandish behavior, we have small bites entitled The Wrong Fork, inspired by Yogi Berra's famous quote: When you get to the fork in the road, take it. We hope you enjoy this romp through the rules."

Small scale laboratory simulations, in a plasma tunnel, were used to guide the formulation of a new dark energy theory. The simulations were used to demonstrate how and why dark energy produces the acceleration of main sequence stars. This led to the application of Newton's Law to quantify this star acceleration. This simulation forms the basis for a detailed explanation of how spiral galaxies, and other galaxies and star groups, were formed by dark energy. Finally, we are logically lead to dark energy processes that would result in the formation of Voids, Walls, and Clusters. Correlations, between theoretical predictions and astronomical observations, show that the predictions are consistent with the observations. Six additional chapters have been added in this second edition. Two chapters include additional small scale laboratory simulations, that are related to supersonic and hypersonic dark energy. Two chapters give a detailed description of how dark energy acted as the catalyst that led to the formation of spiral galaxies, as well as other types of galaxies and star groups. The remaining two chapters outline how dark energy acted as the catalyst that resulted in the creation of Voids, Walls, and Clusters.

Thankful for the chance to leave London and escape the unwelcome advances of an ardent suitor, Abigail Prescott accepts an invitation to Brydmoor Castle to paint the portrait of the reclusive Viscount Devlin and his small son. A young widow in straightened circumstances, she soon finds herself ensconced in his home and the object of his unwavering attention. Nathan Holt vows never to marry again. He's done his duty and has an heir. But when Abigail Prescott comes into his vicinity, the daily presence of her in his home becomes a temptation too hard to resist. Unable to deny himself any longer, he begins his seduction of her in earnest, only to find that once will never be enough. EXCERPT: Candles flickered in their holders, the shadows dancing on the walls and across the massive stone hearth in the Great Hall. It was late. Abigail had been restless lying in bed and decided to come downstairs. Perhaps she could add some of the finishing touches to the nearly finished portrait of Nathan and William. "Couldn't sleep?" The deep voice echoed in the vastness of the hall. Abigail gasped and whirled around in time to see Nathan emerge from the shadows. "You frightened me," she said, her own voice breathless in her ears. Warily, she watched his approach; his firm tread loud in the hush of the night. He walked straight toward her, his eyes holding hers in a look as old as time itself. Her stomach plummeted and her skin tingled against the silky fabric of her nightgown. Since she'd seen him last, he'd removed his coat and neckcloth and his shirt was unbuttoned at the throat. He'd obviously not gone to bed yet, late as it was. Standing before her, he took the paintbrush from her limp fingers and set it on the table next to the easel. "I couldn't sleep either," he said, his voice low and rough. "All I could think about was . . . this." KEYWORDS: Regency romance, historical romance, single father, second chance romance, widow, widower, alpha male, England

A seasonal food journey with native Kentuckian Maggie Green, The Kentucky Fresh Cookbook takes home chefs through a year in a Kentucky kitchen with more than 200 recipes. With a focus on the cook's activities in the kitchen, this book guides both aspiring and experienced cooks in the preparation of delicious meals using the delightful variety of foods found in Kentucky. Green welcomes readers with her modern and accessible approach, incorporating seasonally available Kentucky produce in her recipes but also substituting frozen or canned food when necessary. She complements her year of recipes with tidbits about her own experiences with food, including regional food traditions she learned growing up in Lexington, attending the University of Kentucky, and raising a family in Northern Kentucky. The Kentucky Fresh Cookbook acknowledges the importance of Kentucky's culinary and agricultural traditions while showing how southern culture shapes food choices and cooking methods. Green appeals to modern tastes using up-to-date, easy to follow recipes and cooking techniques, and she addresses the concerns of contemporary cooks with regard to saving time, promoting good health, and protecting the environment. The Kentucky Fresh Cookbook contains a year's worth of recipes and menus for everyday meals, holiday events, and special family occasions—all written with Kentucky flair.

Afterbirth is about what parenting is really like: full of inappropriate impulses, unbelievable frustrations, and idiotic situations. It's about how life for some parents changes for the worse after their kids are born. Or so it feels. It's about how not every threeyear- old is charming and delightful and about how sometimes when your kid is having a tantrum, you have to stifle the impulse to round-house him. And Afterbirth is funny—the participants are some of the best comic writers and performers today, turning their attention very close to home and sparing no one, particularly themselves. The thirty-five pieces include: • Caroline Aaron on what it feels like when the kid moves out of the house ("The New Parenting Paradigm") • Christie Mellor on why it's dangerous to tell people what you really think about being a mommy ("Yahooey") • Joan Rater on parenting the unexpected ("Attachment Adoption") • Neil Pollack on unforeseeable and unreasonable parental rage ("The Tennis Pro") • Matt Weiner on trying not to parent violently like his father did ("Go Easy on the Old Man")
