    During a year on sabbatical from his university position, Matthew Batt realized he needed money—fast—and it just so happened that one of the biggest breweries in the Midwest was launching a restaurant and looking to hire. So it was that the forty-something tenured professor found himself waiting tables at a high-end restaurant situated in a Minneapolis brewery. And loving it. 
 
 
 
Telling the story of Batt's early work in restaurants, The Last Supper Club then details his experiences at the fine dining restaurant, a job that continued well past his sabbatical. 
 
 
 
The Last Supper Club reveals the ups and downs of a waiter's workday and offers an insightful perspective on what makes a job good, bad, or great. For Batt, this job turns out to be considerably more fun, and possibly more rewarding, than his academic career, and his insider's view of waiting tables extols the significance of our food and the places where we gather to enjoy it—or serve it. 
 
 
 
Told with sharp humor, humility, and a keen sense of what matters, The Last Supper Club is an ode to life in a high-pressure restaurant, the relationships that get you to the night's close, and finding yourself through the chaos of it all.

    Beetles, belonging to the order Coleoptera, represent the largest group of insects, with over 400,000 described species and many more likely undiscovered. They account for nearly 40% of all known insects and about 25% of all animal life forms. Their sheer diversity, adaptability, and widespread presence make them one of the most successful groups in the animal kingdom. From the glistening metallic hues of jewel beetles to the formidable jaws of stag beetles, their forms and functions are incredibly varied, contributing to their ecological significance. 
One of the key features that distinguish beetles from other insects is their hardened forewings, known as elytra. These protective wing cases cover the delicate hindwings and the dorsal side of the abdomen, shielding them from damage and desiccation. When beetles fly, the elytra lift to allow the hindwings to unfold and propel the insect. This unique adaptation has allowed beetles to explore diverse habitats, from rainforests and deserts to freshwater environments. 
Beetles play essential roles in ecosystems. Some are decomposers, breaking down dead plants and animals and recycling nutrients back into the soil. Others are pollinators, contributing to the reproduction of flowering plants. Predatory beetles help control the populations of other insects, acting as natural pest control agents. Meanwhile, some species have specialized relationships with plants, fungi, or even mammals, highlighting their ecological versatility.
