Diabetes Snacks, Treats, & Easy Eats for Kids: 150 Recipes for the Foods Kids Really Like to Eat
by Barbara Grunes Linda R. YoakamChild-friendly recipes that fit into your busy lifestyle and offer healthy—and tasty—alternatives to today&’s fast food meals and sugary snacks. This redesigned and expanded third edition of Diabetes Snacks, Treats, and Easy Eats for Kids offers even more simple, delicious recipes for healthy, well-balanced diets. Since the book was first published in 2006, the prevalence of diabetes in children has continued to increase. Children under age nineteen have seen a twenty-one percent increase in Type 1 cases, and children ages ten to nineteen have seen a thirty percent increase in cases of Type 2—a disease that used to be considered an adult condition. But kids will be kids, and when they come home from school, they want a snack that&’s simple, satisfying, and occasionally sweet. When it comes to dinner, they usually don&’t have the time or the taste for fancy meals. With this in mind, author Barbara Grunes has developed more than 150 recipes for snacks and meals that kids really like and that stay within diabetic guidelines. Grunes&’s goal is to help all kids enjoy food that is good for them—even if they have diabetes. Each recipe includes the nutritional information readers need, whether they count carbs or use the exchange method. With recipes like Pizza Puffs, Spud Pancakes, Chicken Fajitas, Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes, and Fruit Turnovers, this book proves that everyone can enjoy familiar and delicious food together. After all, it&’s not about &“good,&” &“bad,&” or &“forbidden&” foods—it&’s about readers feeding their families sensibly.
The Potatopia Cookbook: 77 Recipes Starring the Humble Potato
by Allen Dikker&“Fantastic, unique recipes . . . Whether you want to accent your favorite meal with a potato dish or make an exciting main dish.&” —Broadway World Latkes. Gnocchi. Aligot. Knishes. Samosas. Munini-imo. Poutine. Potatoes—consumed globally at a rate of about sixty-eight pounds per capita each year—are the stars of some of the world&’s most beloved dishes. Perhaps this is why most of us tend to underestimate the humble tuber—it&’s so familiar that we forget its full potato potential. Enter The Potatopia Cookbook, a collection of more than seventy-five creative potato recipes from Allen Dikker, the CEO and founder of Potatopia, the fast-casual all-potato restaurant that has been featured by the New York Times, the Village Voice, and Eater.com, among others. While the cookbook includes some traditional potato dishes like gnocchi and shepherd&’s pie, most recipes are innovative creations that reimagine the world&’s most popular vegetable. Ever thought to make lasagna with paper-thin potato slices instead of noodles? Or prepare truffles with mashed potatoes? Find it all in The Potatopia Cookbook alongside detailed descriptions of potato varieties, potato history, and potato preparation and storage tips. As an added bonus to their popularity, potatoes are naturally gluten-free and—when prepared simply—very nutritious. Along with being fat-, sodium-, and cholesterol-free, potatoes are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. As he did with Potatopia&’s menu, Dikker highlights these benefits in the cookbook by focusing on recipes that skip the fat in favor of keeping it healthy. The result is a hearty, wholesome celebration of all things potato. &“A culinary journey guided by the simple, often underappreciated tuber.&” —Foreword Reviews

Still Here: Embracing Aging, Changing, and Dying
by Ram DassMore than thirty years ago, an entire generation sought a new way of life and looked for fulfillment and meaning in a way that no one had thought to look for these things before. This was the Woodstock generation and they were led on their quest by the man who was there before all of us: Ram Dass. He left his teaching post at Harvard to embody the role of spiritual seeker, he showed us all in one of the greatest spiritual classics of this century how to begin to find peace within ourselves in his 2 million-copy bestseller, Be Here Now. Ram Dass went on to lecture around the world, to build foundations, and to dedicate himself to the service of others. A few of his readers followed him, but most went into business, had children, built houses, and set the larger questions of meaning and fulfillment aside. Now, we find we need Ram Dass again. As we enter the later stages of life, the big questions of peace and of purpose have reappeared, this time demanding answers. Our old friend Ram Dass has returned, inviting us to join him on the next stage of the journey. With him we explore the joy, pain, and opportunities of the ripening seasons of our lives. Writing with his trademark humor and wisdom, sharing stories from his own life and meditation exercises to integrate the teachings, Ram Dass once again provides a new perspective on the territory that lies ahead. "Ram Dass is a superb writer. His example of gentleness and loving compassion is infused with profound wisdom of the heart and mind, a welcome sense of humor, and a savvy effectiveness in the real world." -San Francisco Chronicle

Stressed is Desserts Spelled Backwards: Rising Above Life's Challenges with Humor, Hope and Courage
by Brian Luke SeawardSeaward says: "One of the most important lessons I've learned is that it's not what happens to us, but our reaction to what happens to us that causes us stress." He shows us how to learn this lesson, too. Then he continues: "And that means we have the power to control our level of stress. We, in fact, have the power to choose not to react at all to that which happens around us. It is not what life brings to us that determines our level of happiness and self-fulfillment. It is the attitude we bring to life. The most important decision we can make each day is our choice of attitude. It is what will spur us on or stand in our way." Since we are in charge of our attitude, we are the architects of our lives."

Goodbye, Hurt And Pain: 7 Simple Steps For Health, Love, And Success
by Jack Canfield Deborah SandellaEmotions are invisible, taken for granted and dismissed much of the time - a paradox given they are some of the most powerful forces on Earth. They inflame wars, induce death, inspire invention, and control stock markets. More important, each of us has them all the time. In Goodbye, Hurt and Pain, Deborah Sandella uses cutting-edge neuroscience research and her revolutionary Regenerating Images in Memory (RIM) technique to show how blocked feelings prevent us from getting what we want, and she introduces a process that bypasses logic and thinking to activate our own emotional "self-cleaning oven. " Using imagination, color, and shape to visualize feelings and get straight to the root of longstanding problems, she teaches us to move destructive feelings such as fear, anger, hurt, resentment, and envy out of the body. Letting go of old feelings and traumatic memory at a deep, cellular level makes people feel and look younger, lighter, more energized, and less burdened. And they can begin to experience results after just one or two self-directed sessions. Goodbye, Hurt and Pain also provides seven organic ways of using your feelings to attract more love, better health, and greater success. The process is fast, fun, and as easy as 1-2-3. "Wonderful and profound. This book will touch you intimately and probably change your life. " #8212Jack Canfield, from the foreword

Speaking Sex to Power: The Politics of Queer Sex
by Patrick CalifiaSome of the essays were written before Califia began transitioning from female to male and are written from a lesbian perspective. Others ware written both mid- and post-transition. Essays from the late-'90s to early-2000's that were previously published in various formats. They have been grouped into 4 categories, each with a new introductory long essay further discussing the overall category. "The Engagement Party" covers the inclusion of all kinds of sexual minorities, and Califia's perspective that there is an exclusionary hierarchy in existence. The 2nd grouping is "Like Cats and Dogs", which more specifically details politics between various sexual minority groups: gays vs. lesbians, lesbians vs. transsexuals of either direction, able-bodied queers vs. those with disabilities, HIV in the trans community, etc. The 3rd section, "Destroying the Village in Order to Save It," is the most dated, yet the most factual as possibly most educational as opposed to the author's political perspectives. There are articles about the First Amendment, porn, HIV/AIDS as a financial windfall for pharmaceutical companies, the reduction of research aimed at a cure, the very informative "The Nonoxynol-9 Scandal: How 'AIDS Prevention' Put Women and Gay men at Risk." Many of the essays are heavily footnoted with direct sources. The final category is "An Insistent and Indelicate Muse" which veers off to BDSM sex: Bondage, Domination and Sadomasochism.
