Book excerpt: Daniel: The Age of Anxiety is the sequel to Daniel: The Age of Discovery. All Daniel's friends and enemies have returned. Daniel continues to struggle to overcome the prejudices against him because of his age, his wealth, and his intelligence. It is hard to be different. Daniel's fear of and certainty about the coming stock market crash followed by a long depression finally drive him to act. All the experts say the economy is good, but Daniel believes they are wrong. He decides to hold public forums to discuss the coming collapse with the hope that he will be able to convince even a few people to get out of the market and to prepare for the crash and depression. Adults not only don't believe him, but they also mock him because of his youth and inexperience. In his quest to warn people that the crash is coming, he sets himself up as a target and acquires more enemies. People believe what they want to believe, and in 1929, people believed that the economy was good and that the bull market would go on forever. It is dangerous to kick other people's sacred cows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This year is a year that will go down in history not only for the election that came up, but also for the worst disease to hit our planet and all the people residing on it in decades. We have all seen the posts and the pod-casts that have shown on commercials and news clips telling us to stay home when possible, and stay safe as often as we can. Who would have ever believed something like a virus that started in Asia back in January of 2020, would cripple us globally and continue to do so to this date and time. I thought a lot about this problem. I miss my family and friends. I know a lot of you have been feeling the same way about being inside for days on end. Feeling concerned about jobs, food, money, disasters from tornadoes, face masks and where to find them. And toilet paper and who has it. I decided to write down my experiences on these topics and see how many of you relate to them, and maybe even laugh about them now. So get ready cause we’re going to talk about it all. The drama, the comedy, and the real reason : We’re All In This Together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover what goes on in your midlife brain, the science behind it, and what you can do about it with help from “The Menopause Guru” and health coach. When the changes of menopause start happening, it seems that our ability to concentrate, complete tasks, and remember simple, little, everyday things (like our own names) goes out the window. It can feel like you’re losing your mind (or at least your glasses)! In Think Again!, Jeanne Andrus tackles “brain fog” —a term she uses for the symptoms of menopause that affect the way you think. She covers why they happen, what they feel like, and how to tell when these might be symptoms of a more serious issue. More importantly, she covers how you can cope with these changes in your daily life, including how you can optimize your approach to brain health to make sure you can “think again” for the rest of your life.

Book excerpt: Clean up your pantry, revitalize your tastebuds, and enjoy a healthier way of living! Ditch the middle aisles of the grocery store, and take a stab at making your own pantry staples and snacks with fresh, flavorful, healthy ingredients. Homemade Snacks and Staples gives more than 200 recipes that enable readers to skip the processed foods. Prepare your own salad dressing and other condiments, broths and stocks, yogurt, butter, spices mixes, nut butters, breads and tortillas, and every other staple you could want. Make your own breakfast cereals, toaster pastries, protein bars, fruit popsicles, popcorn, roasted nuts, crispy crackers, French fries, salsas, dehydrated snacks, and so on! You'll find these recipes to be rewarding, delicious, and far easier than you think. The industrialization of much of the world's food chain has taken people so far from their agrarian roots that the diet they now consume would have been unrecognizable as food just a few generations ago. Bright, artificial colors and ridiculous amounts of sugar and fat, coupled with the preservatives needed to enable shipping and long shelf lives, have infiltrated the foods that people eat. In the growing backlash, concerned cooks are looking for ways to wean themselves and their children from these diet disasters without making anyone feel deprived. This book offers the antidote. As a bonus, these recipes are mindful of vegan values and provide optional vegan variations.

This book was released on 2004-08-17 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the most practical, hard-nosed, generous, direct, and useful guide to writing fiction." —Brad Watson Finally, a truly creative—and hilarious—guide to creative writing, full of encouragement and sound advice. Provocative and reassuring, nurturing and wise, The Lie That Tells a Truth is essential to writers in general, fiction writers in particular, beginning writers, serious writers, and anyone facing a blank page. John Dufresne, teacher and the acclaimed author of Love Warps the Mind a Little and Deep in the Shade of Paradise, demystifies the writing process. Drawing upon the wisdom of literature's great craftsmen, Dufresne's lucid essays and diverse exercises initiate the reader into the tools, processes, and techniques of writing: inventing compelling characters, developing a voice, creating a sense of place, editing your own words. Where do great ideas come from? How do we recognize them? How can language capture them? In his signature comic voice, Dufresne answers these questions and more in chapters such as "Writing Around the Block," "Plottery," and "The Art of Abbreviation." Dufresne demystifies the writing process, showing that while the idea of writing may be overwhelming, the act of writing is simplicity itself.

Download or read book Families on Foot written by Jennifer Pharr Davis and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Families on Foot is an interactive guide for families to help motivate children to enjoy hiking and walking in nature. The progressive book would outline basic steps to help families with kids grow from beginner to intermediate hikers and to cultivate a love and enthusiasm for the outdoors. (Going beyond this to “advanced hiker” is beyond the scope of this book and the need for families.) Elements include a basic checklist of gear and safety needs, simple exercises for the whole family to prep for getting out on the trail, real life stories (perhaps crowdsourced from the AHS community), and ideas and activities for making the experience fun for kids of all ages. Chock full of aspirational color photography featuring diverse people and kids, the book is also practical in nature, offering information on gear checklists and how to use GPS, read a map, and predict weather before going out on the trail. It would feature experiences in everything from neighborhood parks to secluded trails. Additionally, the book reflects the hallmarks of the American Hiking Society, with whom we would work to make this book a success.

Download or read book Wake Me When I m Over written by Jeff Scheidel and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-05 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A viciously cynical newspaper hack, Page toils at several small rags on Florida's gulf coast. His warped memory of literature, history, and quotes for every occasion--however inappropriate--allow him to write filler, win arguments, placate and enrage friends and enemies, and dissect his own blistering existence. With constant typing as both master and servant, he pecks endlessly at his collection of old typewriters, hilariously chronicling his sad past and humiliating present, his rage at God, and his hatred for the universe. Page left the wintry north after tragedy and divorce. Now he takes every ill-paying writing job he can scrounge, to save enough to flee the state and the foul regret that plagues his every waking moment. As he schemes and saves, he strips himself of all excess--his possessions and even unnecessary vocabulary--simplifying his life and preparing to escape the inescapable, himself. New love, new opportunities, and the dawning notion that a few people actually like him, conspire, forcing him to choose--eternally punish all things, including himself, or deal with his personal tragedies and return to the land of the living. Wake Me When I'm Over is the perfect blend of humor and personal misfortune.

Book excerpt: A fabulous, practical, and modern guide to true health from a fresh and engaging certified nutritionist with an inspiring and transformational message.

UnDiet answers the question many people have when they realize it’s time for a change in their diets, a change in their health, and a change in their lives: Where do I start? Without being too far off the mainstream, this book offers a simple, attainable, and most importantly, maintainable approach to living life well. With her strong, appealing personality, Telpner guides readers toward optimal gluten-free health by incorporating simple lifestyle modifications. Information is explained with refreshing clarity and vibrant passion, making it easy to follow ideas right off the book's brightly designed pages and into everyday life. When Meghan was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at age 26, and told her incurable condition could only be treated with surgery and a lifetime of medication, this wellness warrior gave up her career in advertising and her gym membership, and instead began practicing yoga, making smart nutritional modifications, and adding awesome herbal remedies into her life. Within four weeks she was completely symptom-free, and remains so six years after her diagnosis. Now a certified nutritionist who shares her knowledge via online courses and videos with a dedicated following around the world, Meghan offers a lifestyle based not on deprivation and painful restrictions, but vitality, mindfulness, and joy. With her help, we soon discover how our level of health and happiness is our own responsibility and the grand missing component of total health is our attitude. When we raise the bar of how we care for and think of ourselves, that standard gets raised in all aspects of our lives. Eat your way to the life of your dreams! Includes a plan for an 8-week transformation and more than 35 delicious gluten-free, plant-based recipes.

Download or read book Acts of Love written by Emily Listfield and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-05-06 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Waiting to Surface comes a “searing” (Publishers Weekly) and emotionally powerful novel about a family and a community torn apart after an unthinkable tragedy. In a suburb near Albany, New York, Ted and Ann Waring are waiting for divorce papers. Ted is hoping for reconciliation, but when he returns from a hunting trip with the couple’s two adolescent daughters, he loses his temper one last time, shooting and killing Ann in their living room. He claims it was an accident, but his thirteen-year-old daughter, Julia—the only witness—is sure it was murder. The younger girl, Ali, doesn’t know which way to turn. And when Julia testifies against her father, she sets into motion a struggle that pits family, friends, and townspeople against one another. As the many layers of truth unfold in this “chilling meditation on the so-called acts of love” (The New York Times) Emily Listfield’s lean and subtle prose reveals the ways in which the emotions and evasions of the past reverberate uncontrollably into the present.
