Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 27. Chapters: Persephone, Proserpina, Hel, Hecate, Mictecacihuatl, Sedna, Oya, Yami, Vanth, Hine-nui-te-p, Rohe, Erecura, Laverna, Dewi Sri, Ereshkigal, Ala, Trivia, Akka, Mania, Ayao, Mamitu, Persipnei, Allatu, Tuonetar, Arae, Belet-Seri, Alpanu, Mictlancihuatl, Achthonian, Kalma, Arsay, Manungal. Excerpt: Hecate or Hekate (ancient Greek, Hekat, pronounced UK: , US: , in Shakespeare English pronunciation: ) is a chthonic Greco-Roman goddess associated with magic, witchcraft, necromancy, and crossroads. She is attested in poetry as early as Hesiod's Theogony. An inscription from late archaic Miletus naming her as a protector of entrances is also testimony to her presence in archaic Greek religion. Regarding the nature of her cult, it has been remarked, "she is more at home on the fringes than in the center of Greek polytheism. Intrinsically ambivalent and polymorphous, she straddles conventional boundaries and eludes definition." She has been associated with childbirth, nurturing the young, gates and walls, doorways, crossroads, magic, lunar lore, torches and dogs. Hecate may have originated among the Carians of Anatolia, where children were often given variants of her name. William Berg observes, "Since children are not called after spooks, it is safe to assume that Carian theophoric names involving hekat- refer to a major deity free from the dark and unsavoury ties to the underworld and to witchcraft associated with the Hecate of classical Athens." But he cautions, "The Laginetan goddess may have had a more infernal character than scholars have been willing to assume." In Ptolemaic Alexandria and elsewhere during the Hellenistic period, she appears as a three-faced goddess associated with magic, witchcraft, and curses. Today she is claimed as a goddess of witches and in the context of Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructio...

The Flying Kangaroo: untold stories of Qantas and the people who made a great Australian airline
["Jim Eames"]

Brings to full and rich life the extraordinary characters, events and challenges that have made Qantas an Australian icon. 'Everyone who has ever flown will enjoy The Flying Kangaroo. These are stories of passion and dedication, of risk and resilience, of excellence and Australian larrikinism, of inventiveness and determination. They reflect my pride for an airline that connected the world and became a national icon.' - Captain Richard Champion de Crespigny, Pilot in Command QF 32 From its earliest days, Qantas has attracted its fair share of unusual challenges and unique characters. These are the stories of a great airline and the people who made it told by a man who has Qantas blood running through his veins. They are hilarious, nostaligic, heroic, and sometimes even odd. They are about the brilliant risk takers who made Qantas the safest airline in the world, the special demands of flying VIPs, the hazards of overseas postings, and the ever present dangers of the skies. But above all, these are the stories of how a uniquely Australian style shaped the best airline in the English-speaking world. Generous and richly told, The Flying Kangaroo is a warm-hearted reminder why Qantas remains very much a part of our national psyche.

War of the Worlds: Global Dispatches
["Kevin J. Anderson"]

War of the Worlds: Global Dispatches features stories by the brightest stars in the science fiction firmament. One of the most startlingly original and entertaining SF anthology concepts in years, perfectly preserving the spirit of H. G. Wells's classic. H. G. Wells's immortal novel The War of the Worlds describes an invasion from Mars through the fictional dispatches of a London newspaper reporter. Yet we have been able to see only one segment of the global catastrophe - until now. Here is the Martian invasion that might have been, from the Earthlings best prepared to tell the tale. Besides the struggle in England, the reporter mentions similar battles taking place all over the planet. From Teddy Roosevelt in Cuba to the Dowager Empress in China, we see our fellow humans encounter the Martian menace through the eyes of science fiction luminaries: --In Providence, Rhode Island, an eight-year-old H. P. Lovecraft bravely seeks communion with an alien intelligence - and a return to his long-lost home; --In Russia, a letter by Count Leo Tolstoy describes the coming of the ultimate revolution; --In a dark woods outside of Zurich, a heroic Albert Einstein finds himself trapped inside a Martian craft, where survival itself is relative; --In Amherst, Massachussetts, Emily Dickinson leaves poetic evidence that she encountered the Martians eleven years after her death; --In Paris, a young artist named Pablo Picasso is inspired by the Martian carnage to create his most shocking and disturbing masterpiece.

Stella Friberg tycks ha allt en kvinna kan drömma om: en makalöst framgångsrik karriär som författare, exklusiv våning på Östermalm, en garderob fylld med designkläder, en charmerande pojkvän, sportbil och häst. Stellas böcker om Franciska Falke, en ung, självständig privatdetektiv i 1800-talets Stockholm, är en succé både i Sverige och utomlands. Nu ska den tionde och sista boken i serien skrivas. Och allt vore gott och väl om det inte vore för en läcka i badrummet. Det är svårt att få skrivro när Strandberg Bygg & Rör AB drar in och börjar bryta upp golv och borra sig in i väggar för att hitta läckan. Förlaget ligger på inför lanseringen av boken samtidigt som pojkvännen Fredrik, tv-chef och svärmorsdröm, tycker att det är dags att de gör slag i saken och flyttar ihop. Skrivandet går allt trögare och när en serie oväntade händelser inträffar, och media får nys om saken, blir situationen ohållbar. När det blåser som värst kring Stella faller illusionen om det liv hon byggt upp, och det visar sig hur ensam hon i själva verket är. Föräldrarna har aldrig förstått varför hon slösar bort sin begåvning på att skriva simpla underhållningsromaner, vännerna har svikit i samma takt som hennes framgång har växt och förlaget är bara intresserade av att få ut så mycket som möjligt av sin kassako. Den enda som ser hur hon egentligen mår är Johnny, hantverkaren som råkat kliva in i hennes liv precis när allt börjar rasa.

For Pat and Gina Neely the secret to a truly happy home is a lively mix of food and family. In their new book, the best-selling authors draw on their down-home roots and revisit the classic Southern recipes that have been passed down through generations. We’re drawn into the kitchens of their mothers and grandmothers and back to a time when produce was picked in the backyard garden and catfish was caught on afternoon fishing trips with Grandpa. In their signature style, Pat and Gina have taken the dishes they were raised on and updated them for today’s kitchens. Inside you’ll find 100 recipes, including Small Batch Strawberry Jam (best when eaten with Easy Buttermilk and Cream Biscuits), Bourbon French Toast, Crunchy Fried Okra, Skillet Corn Bread, Grilled Succotash, Skillet Roasted Chicken, and Brunswick Stew (which combines a little of everything in your fridge).             Pat and Gina believe good food leads to good times and Back Home with the Neelys is sure to bring back fond memories of the tradition, history, and flavors that are present in every family.

In the search for genuinely sustainable building design and technology - designs that go beyond conventional sustainability to be truly restorative - we often find that nature got there first. Over 3.5 billion years of natural history have evolved innumerable examples of forms, systems, and processes that we can now apply beneficially to modern green design. Aimed at architects, urban designers and product designers, Biomimicry in Architecture looks to the natural world to seek clues as to how we can achieve radical increases in resource efficiency. Packed with inspiring case studies predicting future trends, the principal chapters look in turn structural efficiency; material manufacture; zero-waste systems; water; energy generation; the thermal environment; and biomimetic products. Together, it is an amazing sourcebook of extraordinary design solutions to equip us for the challenges of building a sustainable and restorative future.

Doctors told a young mother that her unborn child’s life was Not Worth Saving. With the determination that mother found through faith, Matthew thrived, and he did live. He spoke without talking; he loved, laughed, and made friends—all without ever saying a single word. Matthew was a light and a joy to those who encountered him. In Not Worth Saving, Ann Joyner shares the story of her son Matthew’s twenty-one miraculous and grace-filled years—and, unwittingly, reveals so much more about the number of lives and hearts Matthew changed, simply by being alive.

Set in 1929, Emily Payne’s world is turned upside down when her father loses everything in the stock market crash. He sends her to her uncle’s ranch in Montana, an uncle that she has never met, and her father never communicates with. When she arrives at the train station, Logan Striker, (known as just Striker) the foreman of the ranch comes out to pick her up. He is rough and rude, and shows plainly that he doesn’t want her at the ranch. Up to that point, Striker believes he is going to inherit the ranch from Emily’s uncle, because he didn’t know he had any relatives to leave it to. Now that the spoiled Emily Payne has shown up, it will ruin all his plans, so he wants to make it as miserable as possible for her.However, as events unfold, Emily starts learning things about her family, the neighboring ranch owned by the Worthingtons, that are enemies to the Paynes, and herself that she never counted on. Because of all the things she is discovering, she doesn’t know who to trust, and therefore, she can’t even trust her own heart.

The Gender and Media Reader is an essential text for those interested in gender and media studies, its main topics, debates, and theoretical approaches. The primary objective of this collection is to expand readers’ knowledge of how gender operates within media culture through engagement with foundational writings as well as more contemporary research in this field. Taking a multiperspectival approach that considers gender broadly and examines media texts alongside their production and consumption, The Gender and Media Reader enables readers’ critical thinking about how gender is constructed, contested, and subverted in different sites within media culture. Along with the main introduction, individual section introductions facilitate readers’ understanding of the development of gender and media studies by contextualizing the various topics, debates, and theoretical approaches that have shaped it, as well as by highlighting current trends.

Hristiyanlara göre Dünya'nın sonu nasıl ve ne zaman olacak? Hareket halindeki bir trende uyandığınızı düşünün. Tren çok hızlı bir şekilde ilerliyor ve gittikçe sürati artıyor sanki. Ve duracağı da yok. Trenden inmek mümkün değil. Pencereden kafanızı dışarıya uzatıp ileriye baktığınızda orada tek gördüğünüz koyu bir sis bulutudur. Raylar sisin içine dalıp kayboluyor. Yanınızdan geçen görevliye “Nereye gidiyoruz?” diye sorduğunuzda, “Bilmiyorum,” cevabını alıyorsunuz. “Ne zaman varacağız?” diye sorduğunuzda, “Belli değil,” diye karşılık veriyor. İşte böyle bir durumda ne yaparsınız? Aslında bizim hayatımız bu trenin durumuna birebir benzemektedir. Doğduğumuz andan itibaren her daim ilerleyen ve gittikçe hızlanan zamanın akıntısıyla sürükleniyoruz. Zamanı durduramıyoruz. Bu seyahatte ben yokum diyemiyoruz. Ve sürüklenmeye devam ediyoruz. İleriye baktığımızda olacakları hiç kestiremiyoruz. Önümüz kapkaranlık. Her an her şey olabilir. Kesin olarak tek bildiğimiz bu seyahat aniden ölümle sonuçlanacaktır. Fakat ölümden sonra ne var, tam bilmiyoruz. Çevremizdeki insanlara nereye gittiğimizi sorduğumuzda, net bir cevap alamıyoruz. Hatta bu duruma hiç aldırış etmemeleri, bizi daha da çıldırtıyor. Seyahatleri hiç bitmeyecekmiş gibi davranıyorlar. Ancak böyle olmadığını çok iyi biliyoruz. Bu durumda ne yapabiliriz? Trenin başına doğru ilerleyip makinistle konuşabilsek ondan net bir cevap alırız diye düşünebilirsiniz. Ama makiniste erişmek mümkün değil; çünkü vagonumuz treni idare eden kişiden uzakta ve aramızda geçiş de yok. Ne yapacağız? Biraz düşündüğümüzde birileri tren dediğimiz bu harika vasıtayı icat ettiyse ve üzerinden gittiği rayları döşediyse, buralara nereye gittiğimizi gösteren bir harita koymuştur diye düşünürüz Evet makinistin izlediği güzergâhı gösteren bir harita bizi çok rahatlatabilir. Acaba böyle bir harita var mı? Evet var! İşte bu kitap bir nevi seyahat olan bu hayatın ve dünya ötesinin haritasını incelemektedir.

GENRE: Children's Adventure (An Unofficial Minecraft Book for Kids Ages 9 - 12 (Preteen) Verita is back in her second diary. Verita has been caught for selling potions (the Mayor in the town where she lives ordered that potions should not be made and sold in that part of Minecraftia), and now she needs to pay for her crime. She's sent to a Nether jail, one of the grossest jails around. The thing is, jail isn't the best place for a witch to spend her time. Verita hatches a plan to break out of jail so that she can be free again, and it involves doing what she knows best: making potions. It's hard to find potion ingredients in a prison, especially if you're the new girl in jail. Verita needs to find friends in the right places if she wants to be able to make it out of prison quickly. As Verita tries to escape from jail, she makes friends with a fellow mob who also wants to break out. The question is, will Verita and her friend be able to escape?

Fifty Shades of Naughty and Chance Trilogy Box Sets: Gwendolyn was being watched by a handsome multi-billionaire named Chance at a game development conference. Chance was the co-founder of the game development company Naughty Dark Games. He was at the conference showing off his new video game entitled, Darker Grey Dungeon. It happened to be the second game in the series. His first game Dark Grey Dungeon was a smash success that made him his fortune. She noticed him and anticipated that he might be interested in her, because he kept staring in her direction. He shared one of his secrets with her hoping that she would be interested in engaging in his passion of voyeurism and BDSM. She challenged him with her reluctance to comply. He had been used to young woman completely submitting immediately to his desires, but she was different. Would Chance be able to get Gwendolyn to cooperate with his carnal urges? Gwendolyn also met a man named Eric who shared her love of dark visual aesthetics. Eric seemed more like a regular guy and they enjoyed a moment at the conference. After she left, she couldn't get Eric out of her mind. What was it about Eric that left such an impression on her? Gwendolyn was torn between the two fantastic men she had met. She felt strong feelings for one of them and the other she was wanted to fix. She was looking for true love. Did she find her soul mate? Chance had taken possession of Gwendolyn and declared she belonged to him. He shared his world of the fifty shades of naughty filled with voyeurism and BDSM. She never realized that she would enter a secret world filled with new pleasures and excitement. He put her in a position of a watch dog observing his world unfold before her eyes in real time. She longed to resume unfinished business with Eric. Her fondness for Eric had caused conflict and had put a snag in Chance’s chances. Did Eric find himself back in Gwendolyn’s heart? Did Chance persuade, influence, and tame her into the darling he had desired? Did Gwendolyn follow her head or her heart? Gwendolyn professed her love to Eric. She stood waiting patiently for his reaction, hoping he might reciprocate. Could Chance stand idly by as the girl of his dreams had been taken by his brother? Or would he do anything to try to win her over at any cost? Does Eric express his feeling for Gwendolyn? Or had she made a big mistake in judgment? When push came to shove, the melting pot boiled over and the game had begun. Who would become the winner? Gwendolyn's dream wedding was about to begin. When she stood frozen in indecision, Eric tried to encourage her to proceed. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, a familiar crackling sound filled her with doubt and piqued her curiosity. Could it have been who she suspected it might be? A sudden turn on events changed her life forever. She was put into a situation in which she had no choice but to get to know herself. Would she be able to trust anyone again? Would she ever get another chance at love? Maybe it would be fate. Struck by Eric's infidelity with Destiny, Gwendolyn was helpless to Chance's charm. It finally was Chance's opportunity to console her, so he could sway her to be with him while she was in a vulnerable state. Chance made every effort to seduce her. Would she do it in spite of Eric or for herself? Or maybe it would be Fate? Gwendolyn had to decide the direction of her heart. Was it Chance or Fate that would draw Gwendolyn to eternal love? Even though, the possibility to fall in love seemed limitless, would Gwendolyn hit rock bottom? If so, would she be alone or share the rest of her life with her one true love? If Gwendolyn fell in love, would it last forever or would she fall fast and plummet to a short-lived fling? After Chance's manufactured worl

{"about":" Life has many twists and turns, and things don't always turn out the way we hope. In my reading and my writing, I like strong women and compelling stories with mystery and suspense. Like most romance writers, I am a romantic at heart. But I believe romance takes many forms, so in my heart it’s the classic Romanticism of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, which was as much about life and emotional growth as it was about romance.
I have many creative interests that include painting, quilting, and glass art, as well as being a writer. 
When I’m not traveling to Costa Rica or Mexico, I live on California’s Redwood Coast with my husband and two kitties. We have a wonderful ocean view, and when the fog comes in—as it always does—I’m usually either curled up with a good book, or busy writing, painting, or hovering around a warm kiln making fused glass jewelry.

Sam Dance is a young enlisted soldier in 1941 when his older brother Keenan is killed at Pearl Harbor. Afterwards, Sam promises that he will do anything he can to stop the war. During his training, Sam begins to show that he has a knack for science and engineering, and he is plucked from the daily grunt work of twenty-mile marches by his superiors to study subjects like code breaking, electronics, and physics in particular, a science that is growing more important to the war effort. While studying, Sam is seduced by a mysterious female physicist that is teaching one of his courses, and given her plans for a device that will end the war, perhaps even end the human predilection for war forever. But the device does something less, and more, than that. After his training, Sam is sent throughout Europe to solve both theoretical and practical problems for the Allies. He spends his free time playing jazz, and trying to construct the strange device. It's only much later that he discovers that it worked, but in a way that he could have never imagined.

A central thesis of this book on the cognitive neuroscience of attention is that attention is not a single entity, but a finite set of brain processes that interact mutually and with other brain processes in the performance of perceptual, cognitive, and motor skills.After an introductory Part I, the book consists of three parts. Part II describes the major neuroscience methods and the computational modeling of attention. Part III looks at three major components of attention from the cognitive neuroscience selection, vigilance, and control. Finally, part IV discusses the application of findings from the previous sections to the analysis of normal and abnormal development and to pathologies of attention such as schizophrenia and attention deficit disorders.

Written by authorities on the call center industry, Cases in Call Center Management brings to light the strategic importance of call centers in today's business world. While large corporations have explicit call centers, due to changing attitudes toward customer service, small organizations also have call centers, even if they do not designate a part of the organization as a call center. As interactions with customers move away from person-to-person relationships to other interactive media options, the call center is emerging from the shadows to become a vital force for corporate marketing and communication. Cases in Call Center Management covers the gamut of topics by examining real call centers in action and how managements at those centers have dealt with key call center issues "Human Resource Management," “Operational Management," “Strategic Management, " and “Technology Issues.” Among the organizations covered are Accor, Charles Schwab, General Electric, Hewlett Packard, Mercedes Benz, Thomson Consumer, Unisys, and Yellow Pages Direct. The book is rounded out with a section on resources that will provide hundreds of ideas to accentuate your current call center. Both a practical guide and an exhaustive reference, Cases in Call Center Management is an investment in the future success of your customer service operations.

The Way Out: Christianity, Politics, and the Future of the African-American Community
["Ted Williams"]

The African-American community represents a paradox of sorts. While collective success has been achieved in many areas, African-Americans still disproportionately suffer from a variety of social ills. The residual effects from years of slavery and exclusion from the major institutions of American life are still trenchant. Yet, there is hope. As we move forward into a new millennium, our greatest answers can be found by exploring the past. The Christian faith has served as a sustaining force that has been the backbone of this community for generations. This faith, along with a holistic commitment to family, political participation, education, and entrepreneurship, are the key to its future. The Way Out tackles this issue with a mature voice that represents a juxtaposition of faith and public policy. It rejects the culture of partisan gridlock, racial division, and religious cynicism by fostering a fresh and pluralistic discourse about the greatest solutions for our most pressing civic challenges. From the experienced policymaker to the common citizen wanting to make a difference, The Way Out provides tangible solutions through which we can all find ways to engage. It stands firmly at the intersection of religion, race, politics, and culture to light a clear path forward.Ted Williams III teaches Political Science at the City Colleges of Chicago. He is the host of PBS-WYCC television's The Professors and has provided political commentary for BET-TV, WGN-TV, NBC-TV, and a host of periodicals. He holds degrees in Public Policy Studies from the University of Chicago and Rutgers University. He is a theater producer and minister and lives in Chicago with his wife Roslyn and their three beautiful children, Gabrielle, Amaris, and Ted IV.

This catalogue of early Netherlandish paintings in the National Gallery of Art inaugurates a projected series of more than two dozen volumes fully cataloging the Gallery's holdings of paintings, sculpture, photographs, and decorative arts. The volume contains entries for paintings in theNational Gallery that were produced in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries by artists from the Netherlands. The entries are arranged alphabetically by artist. A short biography and bibliography for each artist is followed by individual entries on the paintings, each in order of acquisition. Theauthors address traditional questions of attribution and iconography. In addition, they examine the social, economic, and religious context in which the individual work of art functioned. The volume is also probably the first museum catalogue to include the results of examination by infraredreflectography and dendrochronological analysis.

This wise and affecting memoir is the inside story of the great efforts leading up to the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 and the fight to implement it--and its implications for affirmative action and black poverty today. A black woman who moved in the corridors of power in the middle of this century, Constance Baker Motley has been a pioneer in both black civil rights and women's rights. As the key attorney assisting Thurgood Marshall at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, she argued a dozen cases before the Supreme Court (winning all but one), and her representation of James Meredith in his bid to enroll in the University of Mississippi made her famous. Subsequently, as Manhattan borough president and a U.S. district court judge, she has fulfilled the highest aspirations of our legal and political system. Equal Justice Under Law , the most detailed account to date of the legal conflicts of the civil rights movement, is also an account of Motley's struggle, as a black woman, to succeed, a record of a life lived with great courage and responsibility.

When Marianne and Steve inherit Moorhead House, which stands on the brooding Yorkshire moors, it seems the perfect place for her to write her modern version of Wuthering Heights. But the house has a dark secret. In 1826 it was owned by Sir Edward Sharpe, who dominated the household with his darkly perverse desires. Marianne finds herself haunted by the past, where she is totally at Sir Edward's mercy. Initially terrified, she is forced to endure his regime - a regime which soon holds her enthralled. Obsessed by the depravity of the past her ordinary life seems boring and even her writing changes, shocking both Steve and her agent. As Sir Edward tightens his hold on Marianne she becomes enslaved by her terrible obsession, until it threatens to consume her.

Ball Lightning: An Unsolved Problem in Atmospheric Physics
["Mark Stenhoff"]

null
Down comes a deluge of sonorous hail, Or prone-descending rain. Wide-rent, the clouds Pour a whole flood, and yet, its flame unquenched, Th’unconquerable lightning struggles through. Ragged and fierce, or in red whirling balls, And fires the mountains with redoubled rage. Black from the stroke, above, the smould’ring pine Stands a sad shattered trunk; and, stretched below, A lifeless group the blasted cattle lie. James Thompson, “The Seasons” (1727) have been investigating ball lightning for more than two decades. I published a ball lightning report in Nature in 1976 that received worldwide publicity and I consequently many people wrote to me with accounts of their own experiences. Within a very short time, I had accumulated about 200 firsthand accounts, and the file has continued to grow steadily since then. Several things impressed me. Few of those who wrote to me had any detailed foreknowledge of ball lightning at the time of their observation. Nonetheless, once reports of other phenomena such as St. Elmo’s fire had been eliminated, the remaining descriptions were remarkably consistent. Furthermore, nearly all who contacted me were keen to have an explanation of what they had seen and seemed entirely sincere.

More than Spectators by Paul Downey explains how Christians can fulfill their role in the local church. Since God expects our total commitment to a local church, it is our responsibility to get involved and become more than a spectator. Pastors will not develop righteousness in the members of their congregations by pandering to their every desire. If they want the righteousness of Christ to be seen in the congregation, pastors must emphasize Christian responsibilities. Downey examines questions about true worship, personal Bible study, prayer, financial commitments, outreach ministries and missions, and much more.

Children: A Play in Two Acts
["A.R. Gurney"]

The action takes place in the summer home of a wealthy "WASP" family on a resort island off the New England coast. In residence are a middle-aged but still attractive widow; her divorced daughter; and her prep school teacher son and his wife. Their pleasant regimen is interrupted by two jarring events: the mother's announcement that she plans to marry an old family friend (which means that the house will then pass to her children); and the unexpected arrival of her younger son and his family. The younger son, "Pokey," has always been out of step with the rest of the family, and while he remains a shadowy offstage figure throughout, it is quickly evident not only that (for reasons of his own) he objects to his mother's remarriage and to the plans which his siblings have hatched for the house, but also that he can, and will, stop them. As the others lash back at Pokey much that has been repressed in them rises to the surface, and they are forced to painful (yet often funny) examinations of their own rather sterile lives. In the end, however, their resistance crumbles, and they are resigned again to things as they are and, most likely, will continue to be until the ways of the world truly change.

The UNCLE SAM DIET is based on the new 2005 US Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Based on solid science, it's an eating style that you can stay with and thrive on. No gimmicks here, and no fads. Dr. Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian and associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, uses the USDA's new dietary guidelines to design an eating plan based on good, wholesome foods. It's simple…it's safe…and it works! * Lots of good foods--from all food groups-so you never feel hungry. * Weekly menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks-you can even have a latte or two! * Huge, hungry man's servings of vegetables and fruits -every day. * Delicious whole grains-muffins, breads, bagels and more. * Nutritious snacks for hunger attacks Got kids? Great! These guidelines are good for anyone age 2 and older. The new Dietary Guidelines are chock-full of great changes for you and your family. Dr. Ayoob takes the "nutrition-ese" out of the government's gobbledygook and gives you meal plans and recipes that are easy to use and delicious. The result? This Uncle Sam is here to stay. "Obesity is a disease of excess-excess calories and excess sedentary activities. The cure is to balance calories in with calories out."-Keith Ayoob (quoted in IFIC, Food Insight , March/April 2003)

The Price of Freedom: Slavery and Freedom in Baltimore and Early National Maryland
["T. Stephen Whitman"]
4.5

null
Paradoxically, in the decades following the Revolution, slavery in Baltimore gained strength even as slaves were being freed in record numbers. The vigorous growth of the city required the exploitation of rural slaves with craft skills. To prevent them from escaping and to spur higher production, owners entered into arrangements with their slaves, promising eventual freedom in return for many years of hard work. This was a practical, not a philanthropic arrangement; following the release of one group of slaves, owners would simply purchase additional ones. This practice of "term slavery" created a labor force affordable to small craftsmen and manufacturers and directly contributed to the urban development of the country's third largest city. Newly freed slaves, driven by debts contracted in purchasing freedom, remained dependent upon their former masters for employment. The freeing of blacks in rural Maryland and their migrations to Baltimore to work and save in order to aid still-enslaved kin supplied the city with even more free black workers.

Und ewig grüsst das Moppel-Ich
["Susanne Fröhlich"]

Warum ist dünn sein immer noch das beherrschende Schönheitsideal vieler Frauen? Mit »Moppel-Ich« hat Susanne Fröhlich einen großen Bestseller geschrieben und eine große Diskussion über das Thema »Schlankheitswahn« angestoßen. Selbstbewusst, selbstironisch und offen schildert sie in ihrem neuen Buch nun, wie es ihr seitdem mit dem ewigen Auf und Ab auf der Waage ergangen ist, wie die Öffentlichkeit darauf reagiert und wie sich das Verhältnis der Menschen zum Thema »Gewicht und Figur« in Deutschland grundsätzlich verändert hat. »Und ewig grüßt das Moppel-Ich« ermuntert zu mehr Gelassenheit gegenüber erniedrigenden Schönheitsidealen und beweist: Frauen können mehr als Kalorien zählen und sich dünne machen.

Th is is not a historical record but a vivid sketch of experiences, challenges, colors, people, sandstorms; the sketch of a country as seen from the eyes of the author over three decades. The author lived for three decades in Libya, The Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya of Muammar Qadhafi. Witnessed the magnanimity of the Bedouin, his ruthlessness as dictator, the eloquence as a preacher, the dog of the Middle East, and according to Ronald Regan, the shrewd salesman of crude oil.The man who thrived on staged coups, and intimidated, persecuted, imprisoned, and executed his opponents, even murdered persons who survived the gallows. The student of Jamal Abd-el-Nasser, who believed in succeeding him as a Pan Arab Leader. The man who substituted normal education with arms training. The voracious person who inspired and supported every kind of uprising around the world and squandered millions of dollars on terrorism and revolutions. The man who subsidized the devastation of Lebanon and killed every ray of hope for peace in the Middle East, but also fought the so called reactionaries on his own territory, a category broad enough to include Muslim fundamentalists, covetous fellow army officers and members of Westernized business class.He speaks about the man who never celebrated a birthday, because no such records exist for his birthday date. Rumors say that he was born in the spring, or may be in September of 1942, the off spring of an Italian general, and a Jewish Bedouin woman, in the Surta area.But also about the man who built the infrastructure of his country, built whole towns, road networks, hospitals and brought water from the heart of the desert and provided electricity to the last shepherd's tent.

Peace is Possible: Conversations with Arab and Israeli Leaders from 1988 to the Present
["S. Daniel Abraham"]
2.33

null
A first-hand personal account of American businessman and Slim Fast founder Danny Abraham's more than 15 years of peacemaking efforts in the Middle East and the reasons he believes peace is possible. For more than fifteen years, entrepreneur Danny Abraham, founder and former chairman of Slim Fast, chose to utilize his considerable resources to facilitate Mideast peace. Together with Utah Congressman Wayne Owens, Abraham made more than sixty trips to the Middle East between 1988 to 2002, meeting with Arab leaders Hosni Mubarak, Hafez Assad, Crown Prince Abdullah, and Yasser Arafat, and Israeli prime ministers Yitzhak Shamir, Yitzhak Rabin, Shimon Peres, Ehud Barak, and Ariel Sharon. Using his business experience with difficult negotiations, Abraham took an active behind-the-scenes role, setting up critical one-on-one meetings between key figures. He urged these leaders to articulate not what they wanted , but what they needed , to make peace, fostering significant advances in the peace process. Since Owens' untimely death in 2002, Abraham has continued to arrange peacemaking meetings on his own. Drawing from meeting transcripts, diary entries, and extensive handwritten notes, Abraham writes in the first person about these extraordinary, often private meetings, giving us rare "you are there" insight into historically significant events. In his pragmatic and hopeful book, he writes, "I am a great optimist, particularly about a region of the world that usually brings out people's most pessimistic inclinations—Israel and its neighbors." Foreword by President Bill Clinton. 16 page color photo insert, maps, chronology, index.

Probing the Muslims' attitude toward Judaism as a special case of their view of other religious minorities in Islamic countries, Bernard Lewis demolishes two competing stereotypes: the fanatical warrior, sword in one hand and Qur' an in the other, and the Muslim designer of an interfaith utopia. Available for the first time in paperback, his portrayal of the Judaeo-Islamic tradition is set against a vivid background of Jewish and Islamic history.

The ships are safe in the harbour. But that is not what the ships are made for. They are there so that we can sail through the rough seas and visit distant lands. In the same way we can endure our problems and seek to avoid them; or we can treat them as opportunities to grow and enjoy the problem-solving process. What will it be? This book will take you on a problem-solving journey. The journey passes through three chapters. First, you develop the right attitude towards your problems and life situations. Next, you go further and learn what you can do to experience freedom and contentment in your life. And lastly, you take control over your attention and use it to overcome the problems created by your personal thoughts and emotions.

Writing with all the passion of "Love Story" and power of "The Class," Erich Segal sweeps us into the lives of the Harvard Medical School's class of 1962. His stunning novel reveals the making of doctors--what makes them tick, scheme, hurt . . . and love. From the crucible of med school's merciless training through the demanding hours of internship and residency to the triumphs--and sometimes tragedies--beyond, "Doctors" brings to vivid life the men and women who seek to heal but who must first walk through fire. At the novel's heart is the unforgettable relationship of Barney Livingston and Laura Castellano, childhood friends who separately find unsettling celebrity and unsatisfying love--until their friendship ripens into passion. Yet even their devotion to each other, even their medical gifts may not be enough to save the one life they treasure above all others. "Doctors" --heartbreaking, witty, inspiring, and utterly, grippingly real--is a vibrant portrait that culminates in a murder, a trial . . . and a miracle."A superior story . . . A moving and compelling novel of doctors and their fears--how they confront them or are confounded by them."-- "UPI." "Segal's best work to date."-- "New York Post"
