Tidy up your life : rethinking how to organize, declutter, and make space for what matters most / by Moore, Tyler,author.;
"A father of three with a stressful job, Tyler Moore felt his life resembled an overstuffed closet: disorganized and overly busy behind the tidy, closed doors. When it all became too much-for their 750-square-foot apartment and his nerves-he set out to unpack the physical and emotional mess around him. Chronicling his progress as "Tidy Dad" on Instagram, he learned that tidying is about so much more than the aesthetics and decluttering of a physical space. When he stepped back, analyzed, and named what was just enough, he was able to devise systems and hacks that brought order to his whole life. Drawing on his experience with the everyday highs and lows of parenting, home management, and work/life balance, and filled with his signature warmth and wit, Tidy Up Your Life includes: Tidy Dad's process for tackling Big Picture overwhelm-how to identify what really matters both emotionally and physically to you and the people who share your space. How to arrive at your own definition of "enough" as well as thought experiments for appreciating what you already have. The goal is not "always tidy" but "easily tidied" and other principles for lifting some of the mental and physical burdens we feel when managing our homes. Tips for making a "one-area-a-weekday" cleaning schedule and other simple routines that compliment household rhythms and eliminate intensive weekend cleaning. Helpful illustrations of Tidy Dad's innovative organizing concepts"--

Blood and the badge : the mafia, two killer cops, and a scandal that shocked the nation / by Cannell, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."For the first time in forty years, former New York Times editor Michael Cannell unearths the full story behind two ruthless New York cops who acted as double agents for the Mafia. No episode in NYPD history surpasses the depravities of Louis Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa, two decorated detectives who covertly acted as mafia informants and paid assassins in the Scorsese world of 1980s Brooklyn. For more than ten years, Eppolito and Caracappa moonlighted as the mob's early warning alert system, leaking names of mobsters secretly cooperating with the government and crippling investigations by sharing details of surveillance, phone taps and impending arrests. The Lucchese boss called the two detectives his crystal ball: Whatever detectives knew, the mafia soon learned. Most grievously, Eppolito and Caracappa earned bonuses by staging eight mob hits, pulling the trigger themselves at least once. Incredibly, when evidence of their wrongdoing arose in 1994, FBI officials failed to muster an indictment. The allegations lay dormant for a decade and were only revisited due to relentless follow up by Tommy Dades, a cop determined to break the cold case before his retirement. Eppolito and Caracappa were finally tried and then sentenced to life in prison in 2009, nearly thirty years after their crimes took place. Cannell's Blood and the Badge is based on entirely new research and never-before-released interviews with mobsters themselves, including Sammy "the Bull" Gravano. Eppolito and Caracappa's story is more relevant than ever as police conduct comes under ever-increasing scrutiny"--
