A Yale-trained, board-certified family physician with a specialty in women's health and obstetrics delivers a proven 28-day functional medicine program to heal the overwhelmed, overloaded systems, and prevent and reverse the myriad of symptoms affecting the vast majority of women today. Weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions—for years, health practitioners have commonly viewed each as individual health problems resulting from a patient’s genetic bad luck, poor lifestyle choices, or lack of willpower. Patients, too, have turned to different doctors to alleviate their specific symptoms: an endocrinologist for a thyroid problem; a gynecologist for hormonal issues; an internist for weight, diabetes, and high blood pressure; a rheumatologist for joint problems, and even to therapists or psychologists. While these ailments may seem unrelated, Dr. Aviva Romm contends that they are intrinsically connected by what she calls Survival Overdrive Syndrome, a condition that occurs when the body becomes overloaded. SOS can result from childhood survival patterns or adult life stressors that are compounded by foods we eat, toxins in our environment, viral infections, lack of sleep, disrupted gut microflora, chronic inflammation, and even prescribed medications.

With the onset of the Anthropocene Era, concern for the metabolism of various kinds of settlement has risen appreciably. Of particular concern in the study of architecture and urban design are metabolic contributions of flows of stocks that go into the construction and operation of settlements of one kind or another. This book is about a methodological approach that allows urban settlement patterns to be re-written, as it were, into water, energy and other material flows emanating from original sources in the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and so on, through various stages of transformation during settlement construction and operation and then on to end-of-life activities. In short, the methodology produces a so-called ‘cradle-to-grave’ account of the material aspects of urban settlement from which technological and design proposals can be crafted ameliorating and diminishing adverse impacts, as well as related outcomes such as embodied energy and carbon concentrations so deleterious to climate change and proliferation of other hyperobjects.

Fifty autobiographical short stories about childhood, life in Italy before and after World War II, and growing old in Milan by the winner of the 1975 Nobel Prize for Literature and one of the most celebrated Italian poets of the twentieth century.Best known for his poetry, Nobel Prize winner Eugenio Montale was also an elegant and incisive prose writer whose stories appeared regularly in the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera. Butterfly of Dinard is a collection of fifty pieces whose distilled language, sprightliness, and subtle irony defy the limits of traditional short stories.Although initially skeptical of inventing fictional worlds, by drawing on his admiration for Katherine Mansfield, Anton Chekov, and Giovanni Verga, and by trusting his own understated sense of humor, Montale began to write about his experiences, “those silly and trivial things which are at the same time important.” Butterfly of Dinard represents a sort of autobiographical novel, albeit in fragmented form. It offers occasions for reflection and sudden flashes into the author’s inner dialogues, evoking people, objects, and animals dear to him while simultaneously shedding light on the social, cultural, and political events of the times.Divided into four parts, the book begins with Montale’s childhood and youth in ...

On December 18, 1999, Julia Butterfly Hill''s feet touched the ground for the first time in over two years, as she descended from "Luna," a thousandyear-old redwood in Humboldt County, California.Hill had climbed 180 feet up into the tree high on a mountain on December 10, 1997, for what she thought would be a two- to three-week-long "tree-sit." The action was intended to stop Pacific Lumber, a division of the Maxxam Corporation, from the environmentally destructive process of clear-cutting the ancient redwood and the trees around it. The area immediately next to Luna had already been stripped and, because, as many believed, nothing was left to hold the soil to the mountain, a huge part of the hill had slid into the town of Stafford, wiping out many homes.Over the course of what turned into an historic civil action, Hill endured El Nino storms, helicopter harassment, a ten-day siege by company security guards, and the tremendous sorrow brought about by an old-growth forest''s destruction. This story--written while she lived on a tiny platform eighteen stories off the ground--is one that only she can tell.Twenty-five-year-old Julia Butterfly Hill never planned to become what some have called her--the Rosa Parks of the ...

The Best of Czech Press Photo - obrazy dvou desetiletí je název zcela výjimečné publikace, která vyšla k otevření výstavy jubilejního 20.ročníku Czech Press Photo 2014. Na 496 stranách předkládá citově působivou obrazovou historii posledních dvaceti let, ale i pohled na podobu fotografie uplynulé doby. Jako v napínavém filmu zde defilují všechny "Fotografie roku", a tak divák-čtenář znovu prožívá hlavní události a jevy jednotlivých let - válečné konflikty a přírodní katastrofy v dopadu na konkrétní osudy lidí, boj o dítě v dnešních rodinách, snahu jednotlivce postavit se rozpínavosti průmyslových koncernů, korupční aféry, které se šíří společností jako epidemie, ale i úsilí člověka zvítězit sám nad sebou. Je tu i přehled často překvapivých fotografií, kterým daly svou cenu děti, a také ty, jež v anketách oslovily na rozdíl od mezinárodních odborných porotců největší počet návštěvníků a získaly tak "Ceny diváků". To, co je však vůbec nejpůsobivější, jsou přehledně uspořádané kapitoly věnované jednotlivým soutěžním kategoriím. V nich je možné na výběru těch nejlepších snímků z nejlepších postupně, rok za rokem sledovat, jak jsme v posledních dvou desetiletích žili, jak jsme se menili, čím vším jsme procházeli a co se dělo ve světě i bezprostředně kolem nás - v každodenním životě, ve sportu, ...
