From a noted science journalist comes a wonderfully witty and fascinating exploration of how and why we kiss. When did humans begin to kiss? Why is kissing integral to some cultures and alien to others? Do good kissers make the best lovers? And is that expensive lip-plumping gloss worth it? Sheril Kirshenbaum, a biologist and science journalist, tackles these questions and more in THE SCIENCE OF KISSING. It's everything you always wanted to know about kissing but either haven't asked, couldn't find out, or didn't realize you should understand. The book is informed by the latest studies and theories, but Kirshenbaum's engaging voice gives the information a light touch. Topics range from the kind of kissing men like to do (as distinct from women) to what animals can teach us about the kiss to whether or not the true art of kissing was lost sometime in the Dark Ages. Drawing upon classical history, evolutionary biology, psychology, popular culture, and more, Kirshenbaum's winning book will appeal to romantics and armchair scientists alike.
Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award. A compelling and complusively readable riff on the classic detective novel from America's most inventive novelist. Brooklyn's very own self-appointed Human Freakshow, Lionel Essrog is an orphan whose Tourettic impulses drive him to bark, count, and rip apart our language in startling and original ways. Together with three veterans of the St. Vincent's Home for Boys, he works for small-time mobster Frank Minna's limo service cum detective agency. Life without Frank Minna, the charismatic King of Brooklyn, would be unimaginable, so who cares if the tasks he sets them are, well, not exactly legal. But when Frank is fatally stabbed, one of Lionel's colleagues lands in jail, the other two vie for his position, and the victim's widow skips town. Lionel's world is suddenly topsy-turvy, and this outcast who has trouble even conversing attempts to untangle the threads of the case while trying to keep the words straight in his head. Motherless Brooklyn is a brilliantly original, captivating homage to the classic detective novel by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation. A New York Times Notable Book.

A thrilling, exclusive expose of the hacker collectives Anonymous and LulzSec. WE ARE ANONYMOUS is the first full account of how a loosely assembled group of hackers scattered across the globe formed a new kind of insurgency, seized headlines, and tortured the feds-and the ultimate betrayal that would eventually bring them down. Parmy Olson goes behind the headlines and into the world of Anonymous and LulzSec with unprecedented access, drawing upon hundreds of conversations with the hackers themselves, including exclusive interviews with all six core members of LulzSec. In late 2010, thousands of hacktivists joined a mass digital assault on the websites of VISA, MasterCard, and PayPal to protest their treatment of WikiLeaks. Other targets were wide ranging-the websites of corporations from Sony Entertainment and Fox to the Vatican and the Church of Scientology were hacked, defaced, and embarrassed-and the message was that no one was safe. Thousands of user accounts from pornography websites were released, exposing government employees and military personnel. Although some attacks were perpetrated by masses of users who were rallied on the message boards of 4Chan, many others were masterminded by a small, tight-knit group of hackers who formed a splinter group of Anonymous called LulzSec. The legend of Anonymous and LulzSec grew in the wake of each ambitious hack. But how were they penetrating intricate corporate security systems? Were they anarchists or activists? Teams or lone wolves? A cabal of skilled hackers or a disorganized bunch of kids? WE ARE ANONYMOUS delves deep into the internet's underbelly to tell the incredible full story of the global cyber insurgency movement, and its implications for the future of computer security.

NEW LONDON, Conn. – Led by junior Terry Netusil and senior Sarah Hills Coast Guard (1-0-0) won their season opening game by a final score of 6-1 over the Anna Maria AMCATS (0-1-0).
Hills had two goals and an assist while Netusil added two goals of her own. This is the third year in a row that the Bears have opened the season with a win.
Coast Guard was thwarted by good goalkeeping early on when Hannah Jansson sent in a free kick from thirty yard out that found the feet of Netusil. She turned and fired a point black shot but was stopped by sophomore goalkeeper Kate Kneeland who sprawled to her right to make the save.
There was a handball off the rebound of Netusil's shot which led to a Bears penalty kick. Netusil stepped up to take the kick but was once again stopped by a diving Kneeland who managed to hold the shot.
Just over halfway through the first half, Netusil had her revenge as broke free of the final defender finding herself one on one with Kneeland. Netusil slotted the ball into the right corner of the net for her first goal of the season.
Hills finished off the scoring in the first half when she received a pass from freshman Olivia Holt, took one touch and buried a shot in the left side netting for her first goal of the season. The assist was Holt's first point in a Coast Guard uniform.
Shortly into the second half Bear's freshman Kali Borden drove a corner kick into the box that bounced around as the AMCATS were unable to clear the ball. The ball finally came to Hills feet where she shot it into the left corner for her second goal of the game.
Just over two minutes later, Hills and Netusil teamed up for their final points of the game as Hills passed a ball across the front of the goal and Netusil one timed it into the back of the net for her second of the game.
At the 62:42 mark, Borden once again took a corner and this time found Holt waiting for the cross. Holt took a touch and drove a hard shot in the right corner of the net for her first goal at the Academy.
Sophomore Elley Donnelly wrapped up the scoring for the Bears with just under twenty minutes left as she followed up her missed shot, and found the back of the net for the first goal of her career as well.
Anna Maria had one shot in the game and they made it count as junior Rebecca Mauricio took a free kick from the top of the box, 25 yards out. Her shot curled just over the top of the wall and into the left corner of the Coast Guard goal for her first of the season.
Freshman goalkeeper Rachel Boohar made her first career start for the Bears facing only one shot and allowing one goal. She is 1-0-0 on the season.
Kneeland made 13 saves on 19 shots faced dropping her record to 0-1-0 early on in the season. Coast Guard outshot the AMCATS 34-1.
