Download or read book 10 Ways to Keep Your Brain from Screaming Ouch written by David Moyer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-02-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whimsical? Yes. Serious? Yes. Practical? Yes! How does a person keep their brain happy and in good repair? This unorthodox, slightly irreverent book goes beyond the psychiatric labels and medications. It provides specific leading-edge interventions readers can implement in consultation with their health care providers to prevent and treat "screaming brains." Topics range from beets and the brain to bugs in the brain. In the final analysis, having a happy brain boils down to taking in what is good for it and avoiding that which is not good for it. In the eBook format, readers can access links that support the main ideas in the book. This is the second of three books in The Transformation Trilogy, a series that challenges the current definition of mental illness and envisions a future where people can find definitive treatment for underlying biomedical disorders. The first book in the series, a medical memoir entitled Too Good to be True? Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain, points out the limitations of current standard of care practice, using the author's family's history to illustrate. This book was revised in 2014 to an eBook simply called Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain. The third, Beyond Mental Illness, envisions major changes in the mental health care system of the future when people can transform their labels so they can begin the process of transforming their lives.

Download or read book The Great Controversy written by Tom de Bruin and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2014-12-10 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs (T12P), one of the longest texts of the so-called "Old Testament Pseudepigrapha," presents the fictitious farewell speeches that the twelve sons of Jacob held on their respective deathbeds. Tom de Bruin examines these twelve monologues as literary products in order to understand the function of the text for the setting in which it was composed. He approaches T12P from three directions: an analysis of the paraenetic parts, a discussion of the anthropology, and a comparative examination of other contemporaneous works documenting a world-view similar to T12P.These three approaches merge into a detailed discussion about the reasoning behind the admonition in T12P, and identifies the fundamental message of the text, namely that each person stands between the forces of good and evil and that this person is called to constantly decide which way to follow. Though T12P is still familiar with the apocalyptic origin and plays with the cosmological implications of this 'great controversy', the text clearly puts the emphasis on the battle inside each individual. It is thereby an important witness for reinterpreting and reapplying apocalyptic traditions through ethicizing them and focusing on the individual. Such an individualistic application of the 'great controversy' theme can be found in a number of other (mostly Christian) works, revealing a similar understanding of mankind's existence and development as in T12P. The analysis of the ethical reappropriation of apocalyptic traditions in T12P provides important insights into the foundations of early Christian ethics, ancient anthropology, and the Jewish and Christian understanding of the struggle between good and evil.

Kim discovers that her mother was murdered, and she wants to find out who killed her and end their life with her own hands. Shades Of Gray #1 Noir, City Shrouded By Darkness 2024 Edition: Noir was a mega-city plagued by a sun-blocking mass called Dry Clouds that had mysteriously appeared three decades earlier. The Dry Clouds covered half the planet and forced those living under them to live in endless night. In this world, corporations were in charge, and breaking your contract with them could mean the termination of your life. Kimberly Griffin a.k.a. the Phoenix existed in a world of death. She closed people for a living. It was a lonely demeaning existence, though, she wouldn't admit it. There was nothing to drive her in the bleak reality until one day she ran into Kat. Kat, also known as the Pandora Project, was hunted by bio-mechas called Un-Men. She was an experiment of the Sphinx Corporation, and they were testing her to see if she could become the ultimate weapon. Kat refused to be a killer and tried to discover the truth behind her existence. Could she be a new form of bio-mechas? Pandora of ancient times opened a box and let all good escape. Would Pandora be the hope the planet needed? Or would she destroy the world? **Shades of Gray Science Fiction Serial Series ** 1. Noir, City Shrouded By Darkness 2. From Moscow, With Love 3. Cerberus Versus Pandora 4. Sisters Enter this dystopian world where corporations rule the people like kings and queens and personal freedom is an unheard-of concept. The Earth is slowly dying as mile-thick clouds known as Dry Clouds prevent the sun from shining down on half the planet. They mysteriously appeared one day and slowly spread across the remaining planet, and if they are not stopped, the Earth is doomed. Many mysteries abound in this apocalyptic science fiction series. Where did the Dry Clouds come from and how can they be stopped? Who is Kat? And who killed Kim's mom? These are just a few of the unanswered questions that start this sci-fi action-adventure series. Prologue: On a parallel Earth, thick puffy barriercumulus also known as Dry Clouds covered the sky and prevented the glimmer of twilight from shining on the city of Noir. For three decades, the polluted high-troposphere looming clouds covered half the planet and left part of the world to live in endless night. The mile-thick clouds yielded petroleum-based contaminated water dubbed Tainted Rain and polluted the air, so they were named Dry Clouds for leaving half the planet without drinkable water. At first, scientists believed pollution caused the great cloud barrier but that theory proved to be false. What caused the Dry Clouds to form baffled scientists, and how to reverse them eluded reason, and only technology's constant battle with nature has kept the dark city alive. Man's need for conquest expanded Noir to cover more than half a continent of what would have been called North America, and Noir became a Mega-city. It was the only one in the world. Over the last twenty years, Transgenics and bio-mechas evolved at a breakneck pace. Transgenics were genetically modified organisms with an extra-genome and were mostly plants produced to survive without the sun. Bio-mechas were robots resembling living things. In this world, corporations not governments ruled the people, creating a society where profit set policy and dictated life. Those who resided in Noir were touched by darkness, and the light of goodness seemed a forgotten memory and they... they lived in the gray —Shades of Gray.
