Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 10th 2007, I set out to go to work on the first day of a winter storm. As I got comfortable in my car and turned on the ignition to drive off out I could not see out of the rear and front windshield nor my windows. My view was quite distorted from all angles. I turned on the windshield wiper and still, I could not see. I then squirted a little bit of windshield washer fluid and continued with the wiper and it seemed to make it worse.I stepped out and went to investigate up close and personal. I gently knocked on the exterior of my windshield with my nails and I discovered a healthy coat of ice on the glass. Upon further investigation it seems that all of the windows were covered with ice. Great my first day of work occurs with a freezing rain winter storm.I started to develop a minor level of anxiety. I immediately went through the rental car and I found a small scraper like thing. So I began scraper the windshield, then the rear windshield and all of my other windows. My fingers were growing colder and more ridged by the minute to the point that I couldnâe(tm)t feel my pinky finger. Finally, I have scrapped enough to see out of the front windshield. By now I knew that Iâe(tm)m running late for my first day at work. I finally set out to go to work about 20 minutes after scraping. This brings me to why I came out with this quick, comprehensive guide on how to survive a New England Winter.I hope you can appreciate the upcoming pages which are packed with helpful hints, tips and tricks for a healthy living in the winter.

Download or read book Surviving the White Gaze written by Rebecca Carroll and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stirring and powerful memoir from black cultural critic Rebecca Carroll recounting her painful struggle to overcome a completely white childhood in order to forge her identity as a black woman in America. Rebecca Carroll grew up the only black person in her rural New Hampshire town. Adopted at birth by artistic parents who believed in peace, love, and zero population growth, her early childhood was loving and idyllic—and yet she couldn’t articulate the deep sense of isolation she increasingly felt as she grew older. Everything changed when she met her birth mother, a young white woman, who consistently undermined Carroll’s sense of her blackness and self-esteem. Carroll’s childhood became harrowing, and her memoir explores the tension between the aching desire for her birth mother’s acceptance, the loyalty she feels toward her adoptive parents, and the search for her racial identity. As an adult, Carroll forged a path from city to city, struggling along the way with difficult boyfriends, depression, eating disorders, and excessive drinking. Ultimately, through the support of her chosen black family, she was able to heal. Intimate and illuminating, Surviving the White Gaze is a timely examination of racism and racial identity in America today, and an extraordinarily moving portrait of resilience.

Download or read book Surviving Climate Chaos written by Julian Caldecott and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-16 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surviving climate chaos needs communities and ecosystems able to cope with near-random impacts. Their strength depends upon their integrity, so preserving and restoring this is essential. Total climate breakdown might be postponed by extreme efforts to conserve carbon and recapture pollutants, but climate chaos everywhere is now inevitable. Adaptation efforts by Paris Agreement countries are converging on community-based and ecosystem-based strategies, and case studies in Bolivia, Nepal and Tanzania confirm that these are the best ways forward. But success depends on local empowerment through forums, ecosystem tenure security and environmental education. When replicated, networked and shielded by governments, they can strengthen societies against climate chaos while achieving sustainable development. These vital messages are highlighted for all those who seek or have already found a role in promoting adaptation: for students, researchers and teachers, government officials and aid professionals, and for everyone who is now living under threat of climate chaos.

Download or read book Surviving the Winters written by Steven Elliott and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Washington and his Continental Army braving the frigid winter at Valley Forge form an iconic image in the popular history of the American Revolution. Such winter camps, Steven Elliott tells us in Surviving the Winters, were also a critical factor in the waging and winning of the War of Independence. Exploring the inner workings of the Continental Army through the prism of its encampments, this book is the first to show how camp construction and administration played a crucial role in Patriot strategy during the war. As Elliott reminds us, Washington’s troops spent only a few days a year in combat. The rest of the time, especially in the winter months, they were engaged in a different sort of battle—against the elements, unfriendly terrain, disease, and hunger. Victory in that more sustained struggle depended on a mastery of camp construction, logistics, and health and hygiene—the components that Elliott considers in his environmental, administrative, and operational investigation of the winter encampments at Middlebrook, Morristown, West Point, New Windsor, and Valley Forge. Beyond the encampments’ basic function of sheltering soldiers, his study reveals their importance as a key component of Washington’s Fabian strategy: stationed on secure, mountainous terrain close to New York, the camps allowed the Continental commander-in-chief to monitor the enemy but avoid direct engagement, thus neutralizing a numerically superior opponent while husbanding his own strength. Documenting the growth of Washington and his subordinates as military administrators, Surviving the Winters offers a telling new perspective on the commander’s generalship during the Revolutionary War. At the same time, the book demonstrates that these winter encampments stand alongside more famous battlefields as sites where American independence was won.
