SENZA RISPOSTA
by CAPT KUNAL NARAYAN UNIYAL Roberto FellettiSenza Risposta. Mi rendo conto che sia un titolo alquanto insolito per un libro di poesie, fatta eccezione per qualche prosa. Prima di aggiungere qualsiasi altra cosa sul mio libro, vorrei dire qualcosa su di me e sui miei processi mentali. Nato e cresciuto a Dehradun (India settentrionale), ho sempre condiviso una stretta affinità con la natura. Ero solito amare, e lo sono ancora, osservare la natura e riflettere su quanto possa essere amorevole e crudele allo stesso tempo. Sono cresciuto con i miei pensieri e ho iniziato a navigare, un lavoro perfetto per me. La mia mente errabonda aveva così la possibilità di riflettere ulteriormente. Spesso me ne stavo tutto solo, sul ponte della mia nave, a sentire le vibrazioni dell'impetuoso oceano sotto di me, mentre il cielo cambiava colore e umore da un momento all'altro. Talvolta mi sono spaventato... sono rimasto sconcertato... ipnotizzato, contemporaneamente. Rispetto la natura in tutte le sue forme... la sua benevolenza... la sua furia... i suoi colori... la sua imperturbabilità... la sua imprevedibilità... tutto quanto! Poi osservo noi... intendo noi, esseri umani, così superiori, i più intelligenti... le creature viventi più progredite ma anche le più miserevoli di tutte, finché saremo preda del falso ego e dell'ignoranza. La natura ha le sue leggi, rigide, e non fa distinzioni. Siamo noi che creiamo quella che definiamo sfortuna. Cito Cassio dal Giulio Cesare: “La colpa, caro Bruto, non è delle stelle, ma nostra, se siamo sottomessi...”. Tutto ciò di cui abbiamo bisogno è scrutare dentro noi stessi e confidare nella divina provvidenza. Questo è il punto cruciale del mio libro “Senza risposta”. “Senza risposta” spiega come trovare le risposte che giacciono sepolte in fondo ai nostri cuori, ma che non riusciamo a trovare perché siamo accecati dalla nebbia dell'ego e dei desideri. “Senza risposta” si prefigge lo scopo di svelare quelle risposte. Le prose e

The Sequence of Event Analysis in Criminal Trials
by Fabrizio D'Errico Maurizio Dalla CasaThis book presents a general method that lawyers, prosecutors and judges can follows to assess the quality and scientific content of technical work done for an accident and crime scene reconstruction. Using multilevel sequence of events analysis allows all key events to be fully identified, which in turn assists judicial bodies in identifying where to assign specific criminal liability. Created from a concept long sought by the two authors (an engineer and an attorney), the method allows readers without any technical background to progress from an examination of evidence gathered at the scene of a complex accident and to reconstruct "beyond reasonable doubt" the events that took place. Once created and scientifically verified by the sequence of events analysis, the chain of key events serves as a reference source for various levels of complex organizations and inter-organization structures in cases involving complex criminal responsibilities.

Serious Adverse Events: An Uncensored History of AIDS
by null Celia Farber&“Farber a lucid and courageous witness to the power-play behind the first &‘scamdemic,&’ . . . [Her] work is journalism at its best—solid, lucid, and humane, attacking wrongs that few dare touch, and thereby helping right them.&”—Mark Crispin Miller, bestselling author and professor of media studies at NYUOn April 23, 1984, in a packed press conference room in Washington, DC, the secretary of health and human services declared, &“The probable cause of AIDS has been found.&” By the next day, &“probable&” had fallen away, and the novel retrovirus later named HIV became forever lodged in global consciousness as &“the AIDS virus.&”Celia Farber, then an intrepid young reporter for SPIN magazine, was the only journalist to question the official narrative and dig into the science of AIDS. She reported on the &“evidence&” that was being continually cited and repeated by health officials and the press, the deadliness of AZT, and Dr. Fauci&’s trials on children, infants, and pregnant mothers. Throughout, Faber&’s reportage was largely ignored. She was maligned, maliciously attacked, and ultimately canceled.Now, forty years after her original reporting, Farber&’s Serious Adverse Events: An Uncensored History of AIDS is reissued with a new foreword by Mark Crispin Miller, shining much-needed light on her groundbreaking work once again. More relevant than ever, this book serves as an essential foundation to understanding its catastrophic sequel: COVID-19. Serious Adverse Events makes clear that the tactics employed at the height of HIV/AIDS—the fearmongering, cancel culture, and &“woke&” takeover of science, medicine, and journalism—persist today. The response to COVID-19 isn&’t new: it is a well-trod and dangerous path in the social landscape.&“Groundbreaking work.&”—Bob Guccione, Jr., founder of SPIN magazine&“Farber&’s research give context to the Covid catastrophe which she all but predicted. Despite the medical cartel&’s brutal crusade to silence and vilify her, Farber never compromised. . . I&’m happy she has lived to experience her own utter vindication. I also love her writing style.&”—Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Seriously, Just Go to Sleep
by Adam Mansbach"Now there's a version, complete with more of the gorgeous, yet weirdly subversive illustrations. The best part? It's still funny. The rhythms, the plodding rhymes, the illustrations, the clever play on the overused trope of the world at bedtime -- they all work together to take Seriously, Just Go to Sleep beyond parody and into the realm where good children's books belong: things that parents, and children, can honestly come to from different places and enjoy together. I can imagine reading Seriously, Go to Sleep nightly, and even to the point where you're begging the child to choose something else (the ultimate compliment for a picture book) and yet still finding something to enjoy. It captures a different 'zeitgeist' of modern parenting."--New York Times"From the team that touched off the irreverent humor trend Go the F**k to Sleep, author Adam Mansbach and illustrator Ricardo Cortes, comes a new kid-friendly version of their instant comic classic. Seriously, Just Go to Sleep brings children in on the joke, helping them understand their own tactics and why their parents just want them to go . . . to sleep."--Publishers WeeklyCritical success for the original Go the F*** to Sleep, a #1 best seller at: New York Times, Amazon.com, Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, and many more!Seriously, Just Go to Sleep is the G-rated, traditional-sized, children's version of the book every parent has been talking about. Go the F*** to Sleep, the picture book for adults, became a cultural sensation by striking a universal chord for parents. Now, Adam Mansbach and Ricardo Cortés reunite with Seriously, Just Go to Sleep, inviting the children themselves in on the joke. As parents know, kids are well aware of how difficult they can be at bedtime. With Cortés's updated illustrations (including a cameo appearance by Samuel L. Jackson, who narrated the audio book version of Go the F*** to Sleep) and Mansbach's new child-appropriate narrative, the book allows kids to recognize their tactics, giggle at their own mischievousness, and empathize with their parents' struggles--a perspective most children's books don't capture. Most importantly, it provides a common ground for children and their parents to talk about one of the most stressful aspects of parenting.Seriously, Just Go to Sleep came to be when Mansbach read a highly censored rendition of the original book to his three-year-old daughter, and she recognized herself as the culprit and was delighted. "We were getting a lot of feedback from parents, saying that their kids loved the book--read in an altered form--because they recognized themselves in the character of the mischievous kid who's winning the bedtime battle, and thought it was hilarious. So we figured we’d do a companion volume that lets kids in on the fun."

by Carissa StantonDelicious, satisfying recipes that are good for your health, heart, and mind by the beloved blogger and creator of Brocc Your Body.Self-proclaimed SoCal beach girl Carissa Stanton first earned her nickname Brocc, not because of an obsession with broccoli (though she thinks it&’s a damn good veggie), but because she hosted weekly girl&’s nights with her friends who loved to cook, eat—and move their bodies. With Justin Timberlake&’s &“Rock Your Body&” in mind, she combined her love of food and created @BroccYourBody to start sharing her favorite recipes on Instagram. Now, Carissa shares with her hundreds of thousands of followers how cooking for yourself after a busy day of work can be just as exciting as relaxing with friends over cocktails and apps. Seriously, So Good reflects her philosophy of feeling good about what she&’s cooking and eating by making smart choices without depriving herself of carbs or a splash of cream here and there. She wants to remove the anxiety around food by helping us all feel more confident in and out of the kitchen. She shares her recipes and balanced outlook to motivate others to experience a stress-free cooking approach while enjoying mouth-watering meals alone or with loved ones. The 100 flavor-bomb dishes, which are approachable, nourishing, and always fun, include all-time favorites such as her viral Greek-Style Lemon Chicken Soup, a better-for-you take on fast food with her &“Fried&” Chicken Sandwich with Special Sauce, and more like: Pan-Fried Brie with Pistachios and Rosemary Hot Honey Sun-Dried Tomato and Feta Turkey Burgers with Jalapeño Tzatziki Brown Butter Lemon Halibut with Asparagus and Olive Oil Whipped Potatoes Chicken Pot Pie Soup with Flaky Biscuits Spicy Rosé Spritz Flourless Espresso Brownies Carissa describes her recipes as healthy, but not too healthy because health isn&’t just about being able to run a marathon or eating &“clean.&” It&’s about living your life to the fullest.

by Adam Mansbach"Parents and children alike will surely welcome a pause to bond over a shared recognition that their endless battles are not theirs alone--before they get back to them."--New York Journal of Books"Everything you hoped for and more....Adam Mansbach, the author and Owen Brozman, the illustrator, have definitely hit a chord with parents."--Examiner.com"A fun title to read aloud and share!"--Midwest Book Review"This hilarious book goes into the struggle of getting children to eat and how frustrating it is for parents....With the age-old struggle of getting kids to eat, we are certain parents and grandparents alike will love this book!"--Budget Earth"Just the humor parents needs as they deal with the frustrations of a picky eater!"--Parenting Healthy, included in Holiday Gift Guide"This is a great gift for a parent because its reality in a funny, humorous way that only a child would get."--Emily’s Frugal Tips/Sew Crazy Life, included in Holiday Gift Guide"A super fun book that will have readers laughing out loud. Mansbach's quirky, clever humor is unforgettable and absolutely addicting! While Seriously, You Have to Eat is totally kid appropriate, adults will seriously chuckle too."--Word SpelunkingOn the heels of the New York Times best seller You Have to F**king Eat (a sequel to the worldwide mega-best seller Go the F**k to Sleep), now comes the version that is entirely appropriate to read to--and with--children. While the message and humor will be similar to the adult version, there will, of course, be no profanity whatsoever.Step aside Green Eggs and Ham, there's a new, 21st-century book in town that will compel all finicky children to eat!
