A reckless, end-of-summer plan leads Jessie and her friends onto Long Island hoping simply to catch an unlikely glimpse of the infected victims of a decades-old outbreak. But if they think breaking in was easy, they’ll soon discover that getting back out is a killer. Someone — or something — doesn’t want them to leave. Not alive, anyway.

Five hackers. One game. Ten thousand Undead.

H as modern psychology uncovered powerful but simple mind “hacks” that allow you to literally rewire your brain for unstoppable motivation?

In “How To Stick To A Diet”, you’ll discover what the most recent psychological research has uncovered can be done to unlock the motivation you need to reach your health, fitness and weight loss goals – regardless of willpower.

You’re about to discover…

* Why losing weight through dieting can backfire causing a person to end up more overweight down the road, and what is essential if you want to keep fat off FOREVER.

* The truth about why “diets don’t work” is both true AND false! (The truth may surprise you!)

* How 4 core emotional wants (that dictate your behavior) can make it impossible to stick to a diet unless you start to use them the right way.

* How changing one word you say can flip a switch in your brain to generate willpower on demand.

* 3 “mind hacks” that instantly changing your feelings towards any foods! With these tricks in your tool belt, you’ll know exactly how to stop any food addiction.

* Why it’s almost impossible for you to fail when you take the one simple approach most people don’t even try!

* Why diet tips for enhancing weight loss motivation without first explaining this *one* thing are almost useless.

* How you can still eat all of your favorite treats without them screwing up your diet, weight loss efforts, or health and still stay slim.

* Hands down the best, quickest, and safest way to lose weight while preventing metabolic shutdown ever invented!

* How to instantly shut down the body’s stress response so you’ll never have to worry about being too stressed out which can kill dieting motivation.

* The real reason you crave sugar and snacks, and how a couple inexpensive items from your local grocery store will stop addicting sweet and salty food cravings dead in their tracks. (Never give into binge eating again when you know this!)

* Why following typical advice on “goal setting” may actually make it nearly impossible to sustain your results, and what recent research has shown you must do when setting goals for long-term success.

* What research has shown can actually alter your genetics, and what you must do to make sure your genes aren’t keeping you unhealthy and out of shape.

Dieting can mean giving up your favorite foods, spending hours in the kitchen preparing meals, not enjoying meals with friends, struggling to stop food cravings, and paying a fortune on costly health foods. Factor in the stress of trying to change your dietary habits, and it’s no wonder having to muster up the motivation to stay on a diet can feel downright impossible.

But if sticking to a diet was impossible, then how can a person that ate fast food every single night, drank sugary soft drinks all day, and hated healthy foods transform into someone that has eaten a healthy diet everyday for 9 years straight?

The answer may have something to do with a few little known secrets about human psychology that allow you to completely transform the wiring in your brain. You don’t need more diet books telling you what you already know. You need valuable insights into how to take total control of your mind, body, and life – permanently.

D ONE WITH BEING FAT is brought to you by touring comedian turned natural
health expert, T.C. Hale (aka Tony Hale). Not only will Tony have you
laughing out loud while he reveals the secrets behind weight loss and
how the human body functions, you will also learn how to look at your
own body chemistry to understand the underlying cause of YOUR weight
issues. Since the reasons for weight gain vary from person to person,
once you understand what is going on with your chemistry, this book will
help you understand what foods, supplements, or lifestyle changes could
eliminate your need to continue buying bigger pants.

This book is the straightforward version of the laugh out loud,
KICK YOUR FAT IN THE NUTS. Both versions explain the science behind
menstrual cramps. The version you choose to read is just a matter of
taste.

Here’s what some of Tony’s celebrity clients have to say:

with Tony is like jumping into the arms of your favorite aunt. Except
it’s not. At all. I mean, his methods work. But it’s not like that at
all.”

panic-attack free.”

You mean the short skinny trainer dude with the neon sneakers who
writes books about women’s menstrual cramps? Did he ever get a single
menstrual cramp? I don’t think so. The guy who helps fat people get
skinnier? Was he ever fat ? I don’t think so. And what’s with th whole
fake I don’t talk thing? Is it turrets? If he did talk, would it be a
string of expletives even I would be offended by? I guess he has a
sense of humor. That’s something good.”
– Betty Thomas – Director – 28 Days, The Brady Bunch Movie, etc.

“You can argue with Tony, or you can do what he says and buy smaller jeans.”

Genre(s): Biographies & Memoirs, Leaders & Notable People, Presidents & Heads of State, Specific Groups, Women, History, Americas, United States, 19th Century, Politics & Social Sciences, Women’s Studies, Self-Help, Health Fitness & Dieting, Recovery, Drug Dependency

M ary Todd Lincoln, wife of the president we have immortalized, has ­always been difficult for us to understand. She could appear poised and ­brilliant one moment, yet rude and ugly the next. Sometimes competent and strong, able to entertain dignitaries from around the world, at other times she ­appeared dependent and weak. At times she seemed utterly beside ­herself with sobbing and screaming.
Historians have mostly avoided saying very much about Mary Todd ­Lincoln except in reference to her husband, Abraham. To many it would seem that Mary Todd Lincoln is still an embarrassment in the tragic story of her martyred husband. But Mary Todd Lincoln lived her own tragic story even before Abraham was murdered. She was an addict, addicted to the opiates she needed for her migraine headaches.

Seeing Mary Todd Lincoln as an addict helps us understand her and give her the compassion and admiration she deserves. In her time there had been no courageous First Lady like Betty Ford to help people ­understand the power of addiction. There was no treatment center. In Mary Todd Lincoln’s time there were many addicts at all levels of society, as there are now, but it was a more socially acceptable condition for men to have than for women. More importantly, addiction was not very well understood, and it was often mistreated.

Because Mary Todd Lincoln’s only surviving son, Robert Lincoln, made a great effort to protect his mother and his family from journalists and ­historians, he intentionally destroyed most of Mary Todd Lincoln’s medical records and many of her letters. What he could not destroy, however, is the record of Mary Todd Lincoln’s pain and the record of how she behaved while living with this pain.

In The Addiction of Mary Todd Lincoln, we can see clearly, for the first time, what Mary Todd Lincoln had to live with and the courage it took for her to carry on.

Calling Dr. Einstein (The Adventures of Mr. Tompkins) by Igor Gamow

Genre(s): Comics & Graphic Novels, Graphic Novels, Education & Reference, Science & Math, Science for Kids, Literary, Education

I n this wildly entertaining and informative comic book, our hero, Mr. Tompkins meets Albert Einstein and explores such mysteries as gravity and the speed of light. Here’s a chance to learn something and have fun while you’re at it.

“The Adventures of Mr. Tompkins” is based on the popular “Mr. Tompkins” book series by the legendary scientist and author, George Gamow. Gamow’ s breadth of knowledge was astounding. He originated the Big Bang theory of the Universe, did groundbreaking work on radioactivity and helped decipher the genetic code. Now, renowned inventor and scientist, R. Igor Gamow has teamed up with talented comic book illustrator, Scorpio Steele, to bring Mr. Tompkins to life in a comic book series.

Along with Isaac Asimov, Gamow is regarded as one of the greatest science popularizers of all time. He wrote books on how the atom works; radioactivity; electromagnetism; the nature of light; and how scientists understand space, time, and motion. However, he’s best known for his classic series of books featuring the lovable character, Mr. Tompkins.
“The idea of this comic book is brilliant. Daunting topics, such as the theory of relativity, nuclear fission, and radioactivity, are presented here in a form that speaks to and entertains a very general audience. The author even uses analogies that help readers relate to very abstract concepts”.
– Catherine Thureson, Clarion Book Reviews

“By his ingenuity and narrative skills, Gamow is able to transform the puzzling and obscure mysteries of physics into magical and enthralling stories. It was Mr. Tompkins who made the new physics vivid and real for me as a child and I am sure that he will continue to do the same for a great many others.”

Michael works in an office and is mourning the loss of his five-year-old daughter, Milly.

There are further complications. Michael has to consider his estranged wife, Susan: she has not been chosen for the program. Barbara discovers the experience is likely to leave her penniless. Connor has not only lost his mother, but also his father. So he is faced with a dilemma that no ten-year-old boy should ever have to face: which one to choose?

The Contract of Love by José Chaves

Genre(s): Biographies & Memoirs, Ethnic & National, Self-Help, Health Fitness & Dieting, Recovery, Drug Dependency

A birthday party is one of the few occasions when our father might come to visit, but you can’t count on it. “Guess what kids?” Mom says, trying to cheer my sister up as she dishes up dark brown squares of cake laced with shreds of carrot that look like little worms: “This cake contains absolutely no refined sugar. Instead, I used frozen orange juice concentrate!”

This is when we hear the sound of Latin music coming up the street like an ice cream truck. My sister’s eyes light up as she yells, “Papoo!” and runs out the door. I see our father’s Volvo pulling into the gravel driveway, his tires making the sound of popcorn popping. He’s pulling some kind of silver trailer with a shaggy grey pony in it that looks wild-eyed and is trying to escape.

“Oh Christ,” Grandpa Joe says, getting up to investigate. “What the hell’s he done now?”

* * *

Growing up with a Colombian father for whom magical realism was a way of life made ordinary reality feel like an immigrant experience for author Jose Chaves, who was born in the U.S. but–as his father would insist–”made in Colombia!”

That experience comes alive like a movie on the page in The Contract of Love, a memoir about family that is both hilarious and heartbreaking. Chaves’ straightforward style turns the familiar exotic and makes the unfamiliar feel like home as he takes readers on a cultural journey from small-town, muscle-car America to the Chaves family farm in Colombia, where the cow is named Lyndon Johnson, and an emotional journey from his father’s volatile world where unrequited love is sung out loud in restaurants, to a fraternity where the most important rule is to never reveal your feelings to another guy in public.

With tenderness, humor, and hypnotic clarity, Chaves explores the landscape of love that holds us together, beyond the addictions that bind us–from the broken faith that sends a boy spiraling down, to the grace that finds the man.

She is helped up by the ardent, fiery-haired Fitz who, as usual, is buzzing along under the effect of amphetamine sulphate – although Anna is not aware of it on that first day.
In the early days of their relationship, Anna doesn’t fully take on board the severity of Fitz’s addiction, and it is only when she moves in with him that she realises just how much speed he is using and how important it is to him.
Anna falls deeply in love with Fitz, and knows he feels the same for her. But there are times when she wonders whether she can live with his hyperactivity, and his mood-swings.

She is aware how desperately Fitz loves her, but realises she has to accept that in Fitz’s world, speed comes first. But can their relationship survive the dominating influence of what sometimes feels like another person endlessly demanding his love and attention?
And then something happens that throws into stark reality the true and horrific damage that Fitz’s speed addiction is causing, forcing him to at last acknowledge what he is doing – to himself, and to those around him – and forcing him to take action.
Dependence is a revealing tale about the destructive effects of a drug dependence. It is also a bittersweet love story recounting both the joys and the passions and the sorrows of an intensely loving relationship, and the eventual breakthroughs that can evolve from adversity.

Rane stirs your heart and engages your mind with her powerful epic of the Moon Goddess Aradia, who more than two-thousand years ago gave up her immortal life in the heavens and journeyed to earth, to teach spells, herbs and magic to better the plight of women.

~ At fifteen, Aradia is brutally abducted after witnessing the vicious slaughter of her village; hardening her heart to the loss she becomes a fierce protector of the young girls she finds in her care.

Excerpt: Slowly she walked out back to the donkey-pen in search of the large butchering knife. Hesitantly, she reached for it. For a long moment she thought of using the crude, cold knife on herself, knowing in the end she would be raped, killed or enslaved by the violent and depraved warriors from the north. Aradia gingerly pointed the bloodstained rusty knife toward her heart, but then she thought of her beloved sister, I must find her…

~Unfortunately Aradia discovers the price of her heroic quest is high…it seems to come at the cost of love. ~

This first book of the Aradia Chronicles is a trilogy; three different lives of the Moon Goddess. Follow her intriguing story in Myth of the Moon Goddess
