"Beans are a Nutrient-Dense Food, Packed with Protein, Fiber, and Essential Vitamins and Minerals"Beans are a nutrient-dense food, meaning they provide a high amount of essential nutrients, including protein, fiber, and various vitamins and minerals, in a relatively low number of calories. They are also a great source of plant-based protein, which makes them an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. Furthermore, they are a good source of essential minerals such as Iron, potassium and zinc. They also contain B-vitamins, magnesium and other essential minerals. Beans are versatile and can be included in a wide range of dishes, making them a great addition to any diet. They are also relatively inexpensive, making them a cost-effective way to add nutrition to your meals.

The first history of Frank Lloyd Wright's exhibitions of his own work-a practice central to his careerMore than one hundred exhibitions of Frank Lloyd Wright's work were mounted between 1894 and his death in 1959. Wright organized the majority of these exhibitions himself and viewed them as crucial to his self-presentation as his extensive writings. He used them to promote his designs, appeal to new viewers, and persuade his detractors. Wright on Exhibit presents the first history of this neglected aspect of the architect's influential career.Drawing extensively from Wright's unpublished correspondence, Kathryn Smith challenges the preconceived notion of Wright as a self-promoter who displayed his work in search of money, clients, and fame. She shows how he was an artist-architect projecting an avant-garde program, an innovator who expanded the palette of installation design as technology evolved, and a social activist driven to revolutionize society through design. While Wright's earliest exhibitions were largely for other architects, by the 1930s he was creating public installations intended to inspire debate and change public perceptions about architecture. The nature of his exhibitions expanded with the times beyond models, drawings, and photographs to include more immersive tools such as slides, film, and even a full-scale structure built especially for his 1953 retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum. Placing Wright's exhibitions side by side with his writings, Smith shows how integral these exhibitions were to his vision and sheds light on the broader discourse concerning architecture and modernism during the first half of the twentieth century.Wright on Exhibit features color renderings, photos, and plans, as well as a checklist of exhibitions and an illustrated catalog of extant and lost models made under Wright's supervision.

Environmental collapse. The betrayals and alliances of the animal world. A father who works in a timber mill. The celebrities in our feeds, the stories we tell ourselves. Loss, never-ending loss. Self-Portrait with Cephalopod-selected by francine j. harris as winner of the Jake Adam York Prize-is an account of being a girl, and then a woman, in the world; of being a living creature on a doomed planet; of being someone who aspires to do better but is torn between attention and distraction.Here, Kathryn Smith offers observations and anxieties, prophecies and prayers, darkness and light-but never false hope. Instead, she incises our vanities and our hypocrisies, "e;the bloody hand holding back / the skin,"e; revealing "e;the world's inner workings, / rubbery and caught between the teeth."e; These are the poems of someone who feels her and our failings in the viscera, in the bones, and who bears witness to that pain on the page.Self-Portrait with Cephalopod is an urgent and necessary collection about living in this precarious moment, meditative and resolutely unsentimental.
