  Build-to-rent (BTR) is a new solution for the shortage of affordable housing in the US. But BTR is a misunderstood concept, even perceived by some as a means of as destroying the American dream of homeownership. Charles Kriegel breaks through the rhetoric to reveal the upsides of BTR, which are professionally managed communities of single-family homes designed for people who rent but want the comforts and amenities of homeownership.

  Across the Board - How Games...

  Tabletop games are ordinary and extraordinary. Ordinary because they're everywhere: played in bars and cafés, churches and casinos, through sunless winters in polar research stations and in the sweltering summer heat of Tanzanian villages and streamed live over Twitch to millions of viewers. They fill the activity pages of children's magazines and the halls of senior centers. They appear as smartphone apps and in luxury editions and as game boards scratched into the dirt. 
   
   
   
  And they're extraordinary for precisely the same reason: they're everywhere, in every civilization, everywhere in the world across all recorded human history. 
   
   
   
  In Across the Board, tabletop game aficionado Tim Clare takes us through that history and across those civilizations. We learn how the same games emerge over and over and how they've evolved and spread, as well as about the contemporary culture of gaming: with rousing enthusiasm, Tim explores games as familiar to us as Monopoly or chess, as niche as Magic: The Gathering, and as unexpected as the Japanese poetry-matching card game karuta. We learn about games as recreation and as ritual, and above all, we see how they can be a way for us to come together—because of all the things that make us human, there's nothing quite so set up for connection as sharing a round of cards or the roll of a d20.

  Oology - The Egg and Its...

  The egg is one of nature’s most remarkable biological innovations, serving as the foundation of avian reproduction. Long before birds existed, the ability to lay eggs developed as a survival strategy in early reptiles, eventually giving rise to the diverse eggs seen in birds today. The evolution of eggs is a story of adaptation, refinement, and resilience, shaping the reproductive success of countless species. 
  Egg-laying, or oviparity, predates birds by hundreds of millions of years. The first amniotic eggs emerged among ancient reptiles during the Carboniferous period, around 300 million years ago. These eggs were a major evolutionary breakthrough, allowing vertebrates to reproduce on land without relying on water, unlike amphibians. The development of a protective shell and internal membranes provided a self-contained environment, shielding the embryo from desiccation while supplying it with the necessary nutrients and gases for development. Over time, the egg’s structure became more specialized, leading to the hardened, calcified shells seen in modern birds. 
  As dinosaurs evolved into birds, their eggs underwent significant transformations to meet the demands of flight and avian lifestyles. Fossil evidence suggests that theropod dinosaurs, the ancestors of birds, laid eggs with increasingly sophisticated structures. Their eggshells contained microscopic pores that regulated gas exchange, similar to those of birds today. Some species even exhibited brooding behaviors, indicating that parental care played a role in egg survival long before the emergence of modern avians. These adaptations contributed to the success of birds, enabling them to occupy a wide range of ecological niches.
