Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may be content with your routine for now, but eventually, you’re going to want your relationship to progress. That probably means moving in together and making plans for your future. If he’s not willing to do those things, it might be because he wants to keep you at arm’s length. That was the exact matter for Serenity, but things soon changed, and she and Hakeem started to act on old feelings. With Rika lying about being pregnant by Hakeem, she basically moved herself right out of the way for Serenity to steal his heart, but in the midst of all of that, Serenity was seeing someone named Sacar, the same person that wants to take Hakeem’s drug empire down and rebuild his own. When things seem to be going well, circumstances present themselves as lies and deceit. Serenity has to prove that she doesn’t know Sacar was the same man that was after Hakeem. However, Rika wants to prove that Hakeem is still and will always be her man. Lies will be told. The truth will be spoken, and friendships will be broken. Serenity has no idea how she’s going to get things back to the way they should be but fixing Hakeem’s broken heart is the least of her worries. Someone other than Rika has plans to destroy her life and remove memories of Hakeem altogether. All this time I was loving you, when you were loving the enemy. People go on fooling themselves into believing that the relationships they have made for convenience, comfort, and wellbeing, are actually relationships of love. Hakeem’s heart was shattered into piece when he found out Serenity was involved with his enemy, an enemy he recently discovered wanted his empire. Now, there is no turning back. Killa Keem is back and here to stay. Although he wants to leave that part of his life concealed, there is no way he can. When Sacar called out Naomi’s name as if he knew her personally, it was then that Hakeem knew Serenity wasn’t who she seemed to be. What you do and what you do not do is according to circumstances around you, and circumstances were the only reason Hakeem didn’t kill Sacar when he approached him. If it wasn’t for Naomi, he would have ended his life. Dealing with jealousy, hatred and lies, Hakeem has to watch his back from his enemy. Sacar isn’t the only one out to get Hakeem, and someone else has hatred and wants him dead. Will love come to Hakeem, or nothing more than a convenient death?

Book excerpt: Ibn al-Qayyim said: "Get up (and hurry) in entering upon Allah and accompanying Him in the Home of Peace, without any tiredness, hardship or fatigue, but in fact by the nearest of paths and the easiest (of them). And this is (by realizing) that you are in a time between two times which is (what constitutes) your life, and this is the present time which is between what has passed and what is yet to come. Then that which has passed, you can correct by repentance, remorse and seeking forgiveness. This is something in which there will be no tiredness, fatigue, or any straining efforts (required on your behalf). It is (nothing but) the action of the heart ... And there is due from the servant to Allah, in every moment from his time, servitude which will advance him or bring him nearer to Allah. So if he spends his time in servitude to Allah, he will advance to His Lord and if he busies himself with desires, or relaxation or inactivity, he will lag behind. And the servant never ceases either to be moving forward or falling behind, and there is no stopping whilst on the path, ever." Every harm that enters upon a servant, is caused by the heart's corruption. The corruption of the heart in turn brings about the removal of the heart's right upon Allah, the Exalted, and a diminution of its degree and rank in the sight of Allah.

Download or read book Plant and Human Health Volume 1 written by Munir Ozturk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 814 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early anthropological evidence for plant use as medicine is 60,000 years old as reported from the Neanderthal grave in Iraq. The importance of plants as medicine is further supported by archeological evidence from Asia and the Middle East. Today, around 1.4 billion people in South Asia alone have no access to modern health care, and rely instead on traditional medicine to alleviate various symptoms. On a global basis, approximately 50 to 80 thousand plant species are used either natively or as pharmaceutical derivatives for life-threatening conditions that include diabetes, hypertension and cancers. As the demand for plant-based medicine rises, there is an unmet need to investigate the quality, safety and efficacy of these herbals by the “scientific methods”. Current research on drug discovery from medicinal plants involves a multifaceted approach combining botanical, phytochemical, analytical, and molecular techniques. For instance, high throughput robotic screens have been developed by industry; it is now possible to carry out 50,000 tests per day in the search for compounds, which act on a key enzyme or a subset of receptors. This and other bioassays thus offer hope that one may eventually identify compounds for treating a variety of diseases or conditions. However, drug development from natural products is not without its problems. Frequent challenges encountered include the procurement of raw materials, the selection and implementation of appropriate high-throughput bioassays, and the scaling-up of preparative procedures. Research scientists should therefore arm themselves with the right tools and knowledge in order to harness the vast potentials of plant-based therapeutics. The main objective of Plant and Human Health is to serve as a comprehensive guide for this endeavor. Volume 1 highlights how humans from specific areas or cultures use indigenous plants. Despite technological developments, herbal drugs still occupy a preferential place in a majority of the population in the third world and have slowly taken roots as alternative medicine in the West. The integration of modern science with traditional uses of herbal drugs is important for our understanding of this ethnobotanical relationship. Volume 2 deals with the phytochemical and molecular characterization of herbal medicine. Specifically, it focuess on the secondary metabolic compounds, which afford protection against diseases. Lastly, Volume 3 discusses the physiological mechanisms by which the active ingredients of medicinal plants serve to improve human health. Together this three-volume collection intends to bridge the gap for herbalists, traditional and modern medical practitioners, and students and researchers in botany and horticulture.

Book excerpt: As a preteen Black male growing up in Mount Vernon, New York, there were a series of moments, incidents and wounds that caused me to retreat inward in despair and escape into a world of imagination. For five years I protected my family secrets from authority figures, affluent Whites and middle class Blacks while attending an unforgiving gifted-track magnet school program that itself was embroiled in suburban drama. It was my imagination that shielded me from the slights of others, that enabled my survival and academic success. It took everything I had to get myself into college and out to Pittsburgh, but more was in store before I could finally begin to break from my past. "Boy @ The Window" is a coming-of-age story about the universal search for understanding on how any one of us becomes the person they are despite-or because of-the odds. It's a memoir intertwined with my own search for redemption, trust, love, success-for a life worth living. "Boy @ The Window" is about one of the most important lessons of all: what it takes to overcome inhumanity in order to become whole and human again.
