New Releases by Lauren Kate

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Kate comes a magical time-slip love triangle about a man split into two—one version young and carefree, the other suave but jaded—and one woman’s quest to reunite his broken pieces. Two loves. One soul. One choice. Fenny’s got that boss glow. Not only did she just have the best sex of her life, but she’s finally about to direct the TV show she’s been a screenwriter on for ten years. Only one thing could floor her—finding out she’s been replaced by a hotshot director named Jude. Wait, no. Two things. Jude looks exactly like the guy who just turned her bones to jelly. Same dimples, same eyes, but he looks older and has a sadness Fenny wants to fix. Last weekend, Fenny met Sam when he movie-style rescued her from a storm on Catalina Island. Here he is again, just…different. Can Sam and Jude be the same man? And if they are, will Fenny’s love be enough to put him back together?

From # 1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Kate comes an enemies-to-lovers “what if” romance about a prom kiss that never was, and one woman’s magical chance to live what might have been. This is not how Liv wanted to see Jake Glasswell for the first time in ten years. Once her high school rival and the prom date who humiliated her, now a successful TV personality, he’s more attractive than he has any right to be. And he’s her Lyft passenger. Since the prom night kiss that never was, Liv’s life has not gone to plan. She deferred Julliard to be with her mom during a crisis, and now swears she’s happy as a recently furloughed drama teacher going on no-strings dates. This weekend she’s maid of honor to her best friend, Masha, and, of course, Jake is the best man. But when Liv glares into Jake’s eyes as Masha says, “I do,” the universe turns on its axis and Liv is suddenly living a version of her life where prom night was the beginning of her and Jake, not the end, and it turns out he’s the love of her life. The catch? Her mom and Masha hate her now. What’s in a kiss? Maybe everything.

Inesperado. Não correspondido. Proibido. Eterno. Todo mundo tem sua própria história de amor. Best-seller mundial e ícone de uma geração, a série de romance paranormal Fallen está de volta! Tudo havia começado de maneira bem inocente, apenas dois adolescentes indo dar uma volta perto do lago. Mas não demorou até que Luce começasse a sentir as sombras espreitando sobre eles. Então os lábios de Trevor tocaram os dela, o calor invadiu seu corpo e os olhos dele ficaram brancos de medo... Segundos depois, a vida que ela conhecia tinha virado cinzas. Única testemunha do acidente, Lucinda Price parece não ter lembranças do que aconteceu, o que faz com que todos ao seu redor se perguntem se foi mesmo um acidente. Sem evidências suficientes para inocentá-la, mas também sem provas contundentes para condená-la, Luce acaba sendo enviada para o reformatório Sword & Cross. Agora, presa em um colégio interno onde celulares são proibidos, o acesso à internet é supervisionado e câmeras de vigilância monitoram todos os passos dos alunos, a jovem vai precisar fazer novas amizade no reformatório — e por sorte nem todos parecem tão hostis. Cam, na verdade, até que é bastante amigável, ao contrário de Daniel, o belo e misterioso Daniel Grigori, que atraiu a atenção de Luce desde seu primeiro dia na Sword & Cross. Mas o rapaz não parece reconhecê-la, tampouco demonstra qualquer interesse ou sequer familiaridade. Por outro lado, Cam parece tão interessado em Luce quanto ela em Daniel. Ainda assim, a jovem continua inexplicável e irresistivelmente atraída por ele. É como se já o tivesse conhecido antes... Seria possível? Mas de onde? Porém, esses não são os únicos mistérios na vida de Luce. Ela guarda um segredo, um que nem mesmo alguém enviado para um lugar como Sword & Cross poderia descobrir. Mas segredos quase nunca permanecem escondidos, e as sombras de Luce não são fáceis de ocultar. Em breve, a verdade que todos escondem recairá sobre suas cabeças, e a vida de Luce jamais será a mesma. Excitante, sombrio e romântico, Fallen é, ao mesmo tempo, um thriller instigante e uma inesquecível história de amor. "Sexy, fascinante e assustador. Eu amei, amei, amei!" – P.C. Cast

Globalization has quickly woven its way into every aspect of our economic, technological, and social lives. It is only natural that the educational system transforms into a globally competent powerhouse. We must hold our educational system accountable for creating quality education based on equity and realistic policies. With skilled leaders creating school districts that can compete, thrive, and communicate in the global community, we must work to nurture future generations that can maneuver and excel in the 21st century. The purpose of this research is to analyze the global mindedness of educational leaders, specifically superintendents, and to explore the future implications of globalization on education. Superintendents represent the top tier in the school leadership. It is essential to understand the views of those who understand the operational steps that can bring global interactions and global learning to our classrooms. If leaders understand the importance of the global community, this may give rise to actionable policy change to include global learning in classrooms. Therefore, it is imperative to better understand the global mindedness of our leaders. It is through leadership that informed change can be brought about in policy. Merging leadership perspectives with policy recommendations can result in actionable change. Findings from this research reflect how clear communication and civic buy-in is imperative when creating new initiatives within the educational system, especially those on a grand scale such as globalization and education. Superintendents reflect on a desire to bring global learning into their districts for the benefits of student outcomes. Current hinders to globalization and education include the COVID-19 pandemic, lack of frameworks to guide educational leadership and the learning community towards globalized learning, and lack of funding and resources to support the incorporation of globalization and education. Educational leaderships'' perspectives offer insight into the realities of educational structures. Therefore, by valuing educational leaderships'' global mindedness we can better discover the underlying factors that make global learning easy and difficult to implement.

For years, physical field trips have been a hands-on, interactive educational method to enhance student knowledge and perception on various topics. Students can gain a lot from these experiences including interacting with professionals, connect classroom lessons to real-world examples, and engaging with real-world examples to increase interest and awareness of the topic. Today, schools face limited budgets and often times can’t afford to send students on field trips. Therefore, students are limited to a traditional classroom setting for learning, even though students are typically more interested in a hands-on approach to learning. Recently, some technologies have emerged as effective, new educational tools. Virtual field trips have become an alternative to physical field trips, while still achieving the same goals. In many instances, this is a free method of education that also saves time for teachers and schools in preparation and travel. Youth of today are regularly exposed to countless forms of digital environments such as games on iPads and watching television or YouTube videos. Virtual field trips engage students in a method of education that they are already comfortable with. At the same time, agricultural literacy of the general public is very low. Consumers are so far removed from the farm that they are not educated on agricultural practices and or where their food comes from. Consumers utilize online resources such as Google, YouTube, and their social media, to learn about various topics, including agriculture. Consumers, particularly students, are not motivated to actively seek out information and learn about agriculture, because they are not in a setting where they are able to engage with it. It is important for agricultural professionals to share their personal story to change perception and increase awareness. Several agricultural advocacy organizations have designed and hosted virtual farm trips, and each organization has taken its own approach. Some of these organizations choose to work with other stakeholders for this effort, some run this operation in-house and a few have only taken part for a short amount of time and found themselves stepping away from the program. This was a case study of four agricultural advocacy organization’s virtual field trip programs. These organizations, the Ohio Pork Council, the American Dairy Association Mideast, the Ohio Soybean Council, and the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance, created and implemented their virtual field trip program within the last six years. While the programs were similar with their purpose to increase agricultural literacy, they differed in platform, design, audience, and supplemental educational materials. A quantitative survey was sent to ten teachers who took part in a virtual field trip program at one or more of the organizations. Based on the results of the survey, teachers chose to include this program into their curriculum to increase student knowledge of agriculture and introduce their classes to career opportunities. Teachers chose to incorporate this program into their classrooms because it was convenient and aligned with curriculum standards. Teachers also reported while they like that virtual field trips benefit their students, they wished it included more hands-on aspects to increase likeliness of student understanding of agriculture. This research could provide agricultural advocacy organizations, their collaborators and teachers with information to improve on the virtual field trip design(s) to best impact youth education and ultimately increase agricultural literacy.

History problems remain the major bone of contention in contemporary Japan-South Korea relations. Paradoxically, while their historical roots in Japan''s colonization of the Korean peninsula have gradually receded, the diplomatic friction surrounding them has grown ever more intense. The post-Cold War era in particular has witnessed a marked surge in bilateral contention over the burden of the past. Challenging conventional state-centric and national conceptions of history problems, this dissertation explains the paradox as a rise in contentious activism in Japan and Korea that began against a backdrop of democratization in the late 1980s. Driving this trend were the Korean victims of Japanese colonial and wartime policies, intent on exacting redress for their historical ordeals, and their support networks in Korea and Japan. Based on extensive fieldwork in both countries, it argues that the essential dynamics of these victim-centric history problems have evolved not along national lines, but between the two governments on the one hand, and transnational advocacy networks anchored in Japan and Korea, on the other. The pressure tactics of these networks have become increasingly effectual over time, manifesting as a new logic for the bilateral relationship: one in which citizens are now agents in shaping state-to-state interaction. Drawing on case studies of Korean A-bomb victims, comfort women and forced laborers, the dissertation aims to explicate the influence of advocacy networks on inter-state behavior. It investigates the question: under what conditions and by what means do transnational advocacy networks affect the way that states interact? Through this inquiry it also establishes why certain networks have greater bearing on state-to-state relations than others. The analysis finds that among the array of tactics employed by transnational advocacy networks, those most likely to affect state-to-state interaction are: disclosure of inculpatory evidence; framing a grievance as a human rights issue; engaging external governments and international bodies; and litigation. In addition to (but not mutually exclusive of) these means, the conditions under which advocacy networks most affect state-to-state interaction are when: the target state is the sole culprit; the target state''s economic interests in the addressee state become threatened; and when a bilateral treaty clause is overturned. By establishing a causal connection between advocacy networks and inter-state behavior, this study offers novel insights into the fraught diplomatic trajectory of post-Cold War Japan-Korea relations, addresses a lacuna in the scholarship on history problems, and builds on the theoretical understanding of the role of transnational advocacy networks in international politics.

The Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) may be the most powerful environmental law in the United States. The law employs restrictive land-use regulations to protect threatened and endangered species and their habitats. When enforced on private lands, these regulations often come into conflict with landowners'' private property rights. Regulations protecting federally listed species can cause economic losses and regulatory burdens for private landowners, yet the government is not required to provide compensation or assistance. Thus, current policies effectively create an economic disincentive for maintaining habitat for listed species on private lands. This disincentive may undermine conservation efforts to protect listed species on private lands, as well as induce private landowners to engage in preemptive habitat destruction for petitioned species that may be listed under the ESA in the future. Incentives, such as direct payments, tax breaks, cost-share programs, or conservation easements, could help to ameliorate this conflict. Hence, this study examines attitudes and opinions of nonindustrial private forest landowners who may be affected by endangered species regulations. A survey was designed to examine nonindustrial private forest landowners'' perspectives on the ESA, potential incentive programs, government efforts to protect the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), and the petition to list the gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) as a threatened species. The survey was pilot tested at the National Conference of Private Landowners in June 2015 in Virginia Beach, Virginia (n = 53). The survey was then electronically distributed to nonindustrial private forest landowners through partnerships with 10 forestry organizations (N = 928). Data collection was conducted from October 2015 through February 2016. Results provide insight into factors affecting nonindustrial private forest landowners'' attitudes toward the ESA, their preferences among various incentive programs, their willingness to cooperate with protection of listed species, and their perceptions of petitions to list new species for protection under the ESA. Results provide new insight into nonindustrial private forest landowners'' perspectives on species conservation, with implications for future policy changes that could lead to better protection of private property rights, imperiled species, and the natural environment.
