    The first book to celebrate the miniature-scale model The Panorama of the City of New York.
    An awe-inspiring metropolis in miniature, The Panorama of the City of New York has achieved cult-like status with New Yorkers and serves as a locus of memory for visitors from around the globe. This is the first book to fully celebrate The Panorama, featuring accessible text and photographs of its conception, creation, and enjoyment.
    The Panorama was one of the most successful attractions at the 1964–65 World's Fair, with millions enjoying what was billed as an indoor helicopter tour of New York. Comprising an area of 9,335 square feet and built to a scale of 1:1200 (where one inch equals 100 feet), the original 1964 mini city was updated multiple times before its last renovation in 1992. Within the 320 square miles of New York City represented on The Panorama, you can find 850,000 buildings, more than 100 bridges, and almost all of the city's parks and streets.
    Now part of the permanent exhibition at the Queens Museum, the Panorama brings the magic of New York to life to thousands of visitors each year.

    Dick Foth can’t stop telling stories. He's been making sense of life through story since he first realized words could become sentences. Now, after eight decades, friends have finally convinced Foth to record the stories he loves to tell in the way he loves to tell them: to a live audience. Stories I Love to Tell became a reality one evening at the Capital Turnaround in Washington, D.C.—a setting for some of Foth’s greatest adventures. And now you are invited into the audience, to find reasons for hope, courage to face hard things, and stories that bring us back together. Our brains are wired for and by story. Memories live in stories; relationships flourish there; identity is shaped there. Values ripen, and belonging is found across generations—around campfires and dinner tables—when moments turn into stories.Why listen to someone else’s stories? If it’s true that every human being somehow reflects God—and Foth believes it is—then maybe stories are the mirrors between every family, tribe, and person on planet Earth. In other words, it’s our stories that give our relationships a chance.Foth especially loves childhood stories, “because when I tell a story from my childhood, it reveals who I am. It is the lens through which I see my world.” As you listen to Stories I Love to Tell, you will see your own world more clearly. You will find yourself thinking, dreaming, and even feeling like a child again. There will be greater heroes to follow, deeper joys to discover, and even more of yourself to see. Foth’s low, kind, and rumbling voice constantly reminds us of the people who care for us, cheer us on, and—almost without our knowing it—become the heroes of the stories we, too, will love to tell. Enjoy!

    Satavahana Empire - Buddhism...

    The Satavahana Empire, one of the earliest and most influential dynasties in ancient India, emerged in the Deccan region after the decline of the Mauryan Empire. The origins of the Satavahanas remain a subject of historical debate, but they are believed to have belonged to the Andhra region, gaining prominence as local chieftains before consolidating their rule into a powerful dynasty. Their rise marked a significant transition in Indian history, bridging the gap between the Mauryan administration and later regional powers. 
    The early history of the Satavahanas is primarily reconstructed through inscriptions, numismatic evidence, and references in ancient texts. The Puranas mention them as the Andhra dynasty, while inscriptions such as the Naneghat and Nasik inscriptions provide valuable insights into their rulers and governance. The first known ruler of the dynasty, Simuka, is credited with establishing Satavahana rule by overthrowing remnants of Mauryan authority in the Deccan and expanding his control over parts of present-day Maharashtra, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh. His successors continued to strengthen the empire, laying the foundation for centuries of Satavahana dominance. 
    Following Simuka, his brother and successor Krishna further expanded the territory, but it was under the reign of Satakarni I that the empire gained considerable power. Satakarni I led successful military campaigns, extending his influence northward to the Narmada region and challenging the Shunga and Kshatrapa rulers. His achievements were commemorated in inscriptions and coins, some of which depict him performing Vedic sacrifices such as the Ashvamedha, indicating his aspirations for imperial legitimacy. This period also saw the Satavahanas emerging as key players in trade, administration, and culture, integrating diverse communities into their governance system.

    Tokugawa Shogunate - Peace...

    The Tokugawa Shogunate, also known as the Edo period (1603–1868), was a time of unprecedented peace and stability in Japan, following centuries of war and political fragmentation. This era began with the victory of Tokugawa Ieyasu at the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600, a decisive conflict that allowed him to consolidate power over the warring daimyo. Three years later, in 1603, he was granted the title of shogun by the emperor, officially marking the beginning of Tokugawa rule. 
    Ieyasu’s triumph at Sekigahara was not merely a military success but also a demonstration of his strategic brilliance and political foresight. By carefully forging alliances and exploiting rivalries among the daimyo, he ensured that his Tokugawa clan would emerge as the dominant force in Japan. Once in power, Ieyasu took immediate steps to secure his family’s hold over the nation. He redistributed land among the daimyo, rewarding loyal vassals and weakening potential threats. This reorganization of landholdings laid the foundation for the centralized feudal system that would define the Tokugawa era. 
    Although Ieyasu formally retired in 1605, passing the title of shogun to his son Tokugawa Hidetada, he continued to wield significant influence from behind the scenes. His retirement was a strategic move designed to solidify the legitimacy of hereditary succession, ensuring that the Tokugawa family would maintain control for generations. This transition of power set a precedent for stability, preventing the kind of succession disputes that had plagued previous shogunates.

    Spotify’s algorithm is kind of a black box. Your song releases, you do some marketing and then it gets thrown onto some algorithmic playlists, sometimes. To most artists it may as well be completely random, but behind the scenes there is of course some very particular code executing purposefully written algorithms. Unfortunately we have no idea what this algorithm actually is. 
    This book represents my entire understanding of how the Spotify algorithm works and how i've been able to get almost every song i've released in the past 3 years onto Discovery Weekly. Since I don't have any insider knowledge this understanding is based on experience, trial and error, research and a little bit of science.
