You think you’re never too old to be cool, in shape and healthy. Not true! Some of you are already starting to look old, feel old and act old. How many years of quality life do you have left? The fifties may be the last period in your life that you will be able to reverse some of the damage you have done in past years. If you don’t do it now, it will be nearly impossible to do in the next decade. In ten years how many of your contemporaries will no longer be here? Is there a fountain of youth? Will your marriage survive? When does menopause start? How about andropause (the real name for male menopause)? Most guys don’t know it exists. They just decline and become that grumpy old man. Are there remedies for the hormonal decline that is inevitable in both men and women? You don’t want to exist with a life of chronic illness and misery. Join the small but smarter more diligent group of folks who are going to change their lives for the better by following the advice in Fifty Something. Observations, interviews and extensive research are employed to give the reader an unusual insight into the process of passing through the fifties. You can go it alone, or you can take a guide with you. You can keep Fifty Something on your night table and look up the things that are important to you as they are encountered, or you can go to sleep in the dark about your very existence. You decide. Because the second half of life really can be better than the first half. Fifty Something has answers.

Shel Silverstein's incomparable career as a bestselling children's book author and illustrator began with Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back. He is also the creator of picture books including A Giraffe and a Half, Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, The Missing Piece, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, and the perennial favorite The Giving Tree, and of classic poetry collections such as Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, Every Thing On It, Don't Bump the Glump!, and Runny Babbit.

Fifty chicken recipes, each more seductive than the last, in a book that makes every dinner a turn-on. “I want you to see this. Then you’ll know everything. It’s a cookbook,” he says and opens to some recipes, with color photos. “I want to prepare you, very much.” This isn’t just about getting me hot till my juices run clear, and then a little rest. There’s pulling, jerking, stuffing, trussing. Fifty preparations. He promises we’ll start out slow, with wine and a good oiling . . . Holy crap. “I will control everything that happens here,” he says. “You can leave anytime, but as long as you stay, you’re my ingredient.” I’ll be transformed from a raw, organic bird into something—what? Something delicious. So begins the adventures of Miss Chicken, a young free-range, from raw innocence to golden brown ecstasy, in this spoof-in-a-cookbook that simmers in the afterglow of E.L. James’s sensational Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy. Like Anastasia Steele, Miss Chicken finds herself at the mercy of a dominating man, in this case, a wealthy, sexy, and very hungry chef. And before long, from unbearably slow drizzling to trussing, Miss Chicken discovers the sheer thrill of becoming the main course. A parody in three acts—“The Novice Bird” (easy recipes for roasters), “Falling to Pieces” (parts perfect for weeknight meals), and “Advanced Techniques” (the climax of cooking)—Fifty Shades of Chicken is a cookbook of fifty irresistible, repertoire-boosting chicken dishes that will leave you hungry for more. With memorable tips and revealing photographs, Fifty Shades of Chicken will have you dominating dinner.
Download or read book Thrown Away The Trauma of Starting Over After Age Fifty written by B. Corbett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-11-14 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Older women are thrown away every day by husbands who suddenly want to play. Families are broken apart and lives are destroyed. Men often "cloak" for one another, helping to destroy womens' lives as though it were just another game. Shockingly, society condones this behavior and thrown away wives are often blamed for getting themselves thrown away. Behind many older men driving flashy sports cars are wives whose lives have been completely devastated, good women whose identities have been stolen by younger, predatory women all too eager to take take over the identity of the wives. Besides the financial devastation of the throwaways is overwhelming traumatic stress and an insurmountable burden of struggling to rebuild late in life in a society that undervalues them. This book chronicles some of their stories, illuminates the truth behind inappropriately labeled "midlife crisis" of men and exposes the truth about what happens to thrown away women. I am sure you will be surprised by what you read.

Book excerpt: Frannie Rosen's psychic mentions a brilliant future, but she never tells the straight-laced and naive Frannie that she will be possessed by a promiscuous doppelganger.

Download or read book Fiddle written by Vivian Wagner and published by Citadel Press. This book was released on 2010-05-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiddling suddenly seemed vitally important, even necessary, for me to learn. Perhaps it had to do with grief for my mom's death, and with the fact that I was just starting to feel the inklings of a midlife crisis coming on. All I knew consciously, though, was that I had to learn it. After a chance encounter with fiddle music, Vivian Wagner discovered something she never knew she had lacked. The fiddle had reawakened not only her passion for music, but for life itself. From the remote workshop of a wizened master fiddle maker in the Blue Ridge Mountains to a klezmer band in Cleveland, from Cajun fiddle music in Katrina-ravaged New Orleans to a fiddle camp in Tennessee, Vivian's quest to master the instrument becomes a journey populated by teachers and artisans--and ultimately creates a community that fortifies her through an emotionally crushing loss. Intimate and enlightening, this is a story about the unique gifts of the fiddle, the redeeming power of music, the freedom of improvisation--and the importance of knowing that even though a song may reach its end, there's always a new tune to learn. . . "Charming, smart, lyrical and surprising. I recommend it to anyone--savage beast or not--who needs their soul soothed." --Suzanne Finnamore, international bestselling author of Split
