Beauty Diplomacy: Embodying an Emerging Nation (Globalization in Everyday Life)
by Oluwakemi M. BalogunEven as beauty pageants have been critiqued as misogynistic and dated cultural vestiges of the past in the US and elsewhere, the pageant industry is growing in popularity across the Global South, and Nigeria is one of the countries at the forefront of this trend. In a country with over 1,000 reported pageants, these events are more than superficial forms of entertainment. Beauty Diplomacy takes us inside the world of Nigerian beauty contests to see how they are transformed into contested vehicles for promoting complex ideas about gender and power, ethnicity and belonging, and a rapidly changing articulation of Nigerian nationhood. Drawing on four case studies of beauty pageants, this book examines how Nigeria's changing position in the global political economy and existing cultural tensions inform varied forms of embodied nationalism, where contestants are expected to integrate recognizable elements of Nigerian cultural identity while also conveying a narrative of a newly-emerging, globally-relevant Nigeria. Oluwakemi M. Balogun critically examines Nigerian pageants in the context of major transitions within the nation-state, using these events as a lens through which to understand Nigerian national identity and international relations.
Beauty, Disrupted: A Memoir
by Carré Otis Hugo SchwyzerThe actress, model and former wife of Mickey Rourke tells of her rise from homeless teen to supermodel and her recovery from anorexia and abuse. Teen runaway, supermodel, and actress Carré Otis found herself in the public eye from a very tender age. By the time she was twenty, millions of people had already gazed at provocative images of her in magazine and billboard ads from Guess and Calvin Klein, on the pages of Playboy and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, and on posters for the controversial film Wild Orchid, with her soon-to-be husband Mickey Rourke. Their troubled marriage was widely reported in the media, as were Carré’s struggles with drugs and a particularly brutal eating disorder. But simply because we’ve seen someone naked on the page or exposed on the screen or in the tabloids doesn’t mean we know who that person really is.In Beauty, Disrupted, Carré Otis confronts her complex past fearlessly and with unrelenting candor. The result is a narrative of success, despair, and ultimate triumph over sexual exploitation and our cultural obsession with appearance—a narrative of beauty disrupted, reclaimed, and made more radiant through self-acceptance, inner peace, and the love of family.

Beauty for Ashes
by Win BlevinsA tale of love and the American mountain man, from the author of So Wild a Dream After setting off from Pennsylvania to join the ranks of the fur trappers working the Rocky Mountains, Beauty for Ashes picks up where So Wild a Dream left off in this hit sequel from master Western writer Win Blevins. Sam Morgan, traveling with his coyote pup Coy, sets off on foot from the Sweetwater River of Wyoming to Fort Atkinson on the Missouri. Joining up with a brigade to trap beaver, Morgan encounters the warring Lakota and pesky bears, along with a whole lot of adventure along the way. When Morgan goes in search of the beautiful Crow woman Meadowlark, his attempt to win the hand of Meadowlark will lead to one full-hearted, perhaps foolhardy attempt to claim her as his wife. Beauty for Ashes captures the thrills and hardships of early American fur trappers, weaving a tight and compelling love story along the way. Part nostalgia, part reminder to live in the moment, Beauty for Ashes is one of the finer novels written on this oft-forgotten slice of greater Americana, and its exacting prose serves to carry the reader pleasantly toward the story's inevitable conclusion.

A Beauty-ful Boson: Search for the Higgs Boson Produced in Association with a Vector Boson and Decaying into a Pair of b-quarks Using Large-R Jets with the ATLAS Detector (Springer Theses)
by Giulia Di GregorioThe analysis described in this thesis is the search for the Higgs boson, decaying into bb pair, in the associated production with a vector boson, in the extreme Higgs boson transverse momentum region where the Higgs boson is reconstructed using the large-R jet technique. The use of the large-R jets allows to add a part of the phase space unexplored so far, which is particularly sensitive to possible new physics.The analysed data have been collected at LHC by the ATLAS detector between 2015 and 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV. The same dataset has been used to perform the differential pp → ZH and pp → WH cross-section measurements used to extract the information on the Higgs couplings and to put limits on Beyond the Standard Model effects.Furthermore the analysis has been re-used to perform a cross-section measurement of the diboson ZZ and WZ processes because the diboson and the Higgs processes have a similar topology. For the first time the ZZ(bb) and WZ(bb) cross-sections are measured at √s = 13 TeV and the observed cross-section measurements are consistent with the Standard Model predictions.
