Beauty and the Beast is a magical tale of love, understanding, and triumph. Late one night a merchant becomes lost in the woods and stumbles upon a seemingly deserted castle. Hungry and tired, he enters the castle and finds a feast laid out on a grand table. Finding no one else in the castle, he eats the food himself. In the morning as he leaves he finds a beautiful rose bush in the garden and picks a single flower for his daughter Belle. Suddenly a beast appears and tells him he must die for abusing his hospitality. The merchant explains that he only picked the rose for his daughter. The Beast makes a deal with him that he can take the rose and other riches back to his daughter but only if he agrees to return and does not tell his daughter of the deal. The merchant agrees and makes his way home. He is unable to keep this terrible secret from Belle and when she finds out she returns to the Castle in his place. This is a wonderfully enchanting story, from the opening Once Upon a Time until the final Happily Ever After. A story your children will cherish for years.

Five years in the Polish wilderness. Queues for groceries, unfathomable bus timetables, inexplicable traditions and truly bizarre soup this is Poland in the mid-1990s, where Tom Galvin innocently went as a trainee teacher. Without a word of Polish, he is plunged into a strange and rapidly changing culture, as the country shakes off its troubled and complex past and faces the challenges of being a part of modern Europe. Tom spent five years dealing with long and freezing winters, lack of good food, loneliness and hardship, as he discovered the misery as well as the joy of Polish life. He returned in 2007, to find surprising changes to the country that had been his home for the first years of his working life. An interesting and amusing account of living and working abroad, which documents a unique period of Polish history.

Since the advent of sport, athletes have worked to gain an edge on their competition-to look, feel, and perform their best-through both training and nutrition. Today, science is increasingly showing the negative impact that gluten, a protein in wheat, barley, and rye, can have on health. For the estimated 30 million Americans with forms of gluten intolerance, such as celiac disease, this all-too-common protein can cause gastrointestinal trouble, inflammation, muscle fatigue, and mental fog that hinder an active lifestyle and negatively impact athletic performance. The solution: a whole-foods, nutrient-dense gluten-free diet. Others who voluntarily eat gluten-free can also discover an edge they never knew was missing: faster recovery, reduced inflammation, improved digestion, and increased athletic performance. The Gluten-Free Edge is the first comprehensive resource that includes: What gluten is and how it negatively impacts health and athletic performance The myriad benefits of adopting a gluten-free nutrition plan What to eat during training, competition, and recovery How to deal with group meals, eating on the road, and getting "glutened" Insights from prominent athletes already living the gluten-free edge And 50 simple, high-octane recipes to fuel your performance Whether you've been diagnosed with gluten intolerance or simply want to get ahead of the competition, this book is for you. Your own gluten-free edge is waiting.

Approximately 25 percent of otherwise normally developing young children experience feeding difficulties. These may not only be disruptive to the child's physical and emotional development, they also may affect the whole family. In When Your Child Won't Eat or Eats Too Much, author Dr. Irene Chatoor teaches parents how to navigate the challenges of early feeding development and help their children establish healthy eating habits. Based on clinical experiences and research studies, Chatoor helps you understand your child's specific feeding problems-whether your child has difficulty feeling hunger, has difficulty determining fullness, refuses to eat certain foods, or is just plain scared to eat. When Your Child Won't Eat or Eats Too Much presents specific suggestions and practical tips on how to understand and manage each of these feeding problems while promoting a healthy eating environment for the whole family. It also describes how feeding difficulties can be prevented and how discipline can be established without resorting to coercive measures. Chatoor, a pediatric psychiatrist who has made fundamental contributions in her field, helps parents better understand and deal with the challenges of early feeding development and the special feeding issues of their children.

A survivor, an overcomer, a victor who finally knows what victory tastes like. Oh yes, she finally put together the broken pieces of her life and walked into the light at the end of the tunnel. A light that led her out of a lifestyle of selfdestruction, self-hatred, and self-pity. Early in life, she was dealt a bum hand-forced to deal with traumatic life events over which she had no control and which she was much too young to cope with: When she was three, her father died suddenly. At the age of nine, she was raped and sexually exploited-her innocence robbed, stolen, forever gone. At seventeen, she was raped by her manager at a food restaurant. Emotionally ravaged, she felt dirty, damaged, and isolated. Angry and bitter, she turned on herself, blaming herself, feeling guilt and shame-sharing her feelings with no one. To mask the pain, she numbed herself with alcohol and drugs. In search of peace from the storm that raged within, she attempted suicide on three occasions, one of which almost proved fatal. She become involved in mentally, emotionally, physically abusive relationships in her search for true love. Her direction in life was always down until she looked up to a Savior named Jesus. Jesus was the light she walked toward at the end of the tunnel. Through him, she realized the hand life dealt her no longer had the power to destroy her. What were meant to be stumbling blocks eventually became stepping stones to a purpose and a mission to reach back and pull up women undergoing similar struggles. ~Christine Hill~ Sister The Desires of Thine Heart is a testimony of triumph. Felecia is a shining example of what God will do for you if you hold on and make it through the storms. God does have a plan for you!

In Why Corporation 2020?

Sukhdev makes an arresting case for including the private sector in these changes, arguing that a new corporate model is needed in the next decade to avert irreparable ecological harm.

The little bayou town of Alcide, Louisiana, nicknamed "Fort St. Jesus," is flavored just right with good people, good times and good food. But on one strange weekend in September, the good people become the good food. Something big, weird and hungry is out there, and deputy sheriff Lexie Smith is on the case. Helping her are her old high-school buddies: Cam DeSelle, local vet and bait-store owner; Troy Pitre, the town's mechanic; sex-toy saleslady Carla Fontanelli; and young Father Mike and Sister Joanie, Alcide's source of spiritual strength and juicy gossip. Adding to Lexie's worries are some meth-dealing gangbangers in town for a big drug deal and a category 3 hurricane bearing down on all of them. They're just a few of the ingredients that'll be thrown into the pot for one memorable get together at Fort St. Jesus Bait and Tackle. Who's the bait and who's the tackle? Who will eat and who will be eaten?

Well, here I am with four kids now, and I can tell you it does get better. What you're going through isn't what things will always be like. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, make you feel guilty for doing something for yourself."Get up 30 minutes earlier than everyone else and make it clear to everyone in the house that this is your time."As long as your baby has food in her belly, clothes on her back, and is not overly wet, then that time is yours.

This novel is about a crooked health department and is certainly a one of a kind novel. I don't believe there has ever been a novel about a crooked health department before the creation of this novel. Some of it is reality based. A retired Naval Intelligence Officer (Ty Ambrose) takes a job as a health inspector at the local health department. He finds corruption running from within the political arena all the way down to the county health inspector. Corruption and pay-offs from food service inspections to septic tank approvals run rampant! Being an ex-Naval Intelligence Officer, Ty decides to stay with the job and learn as much about the corruption as possible. Then, with evidence in hand, he planned to notify the proper authorities about the corruption. Eventually, Ty learns the corruption extends all the way out to the Military Base and gets Naval Intelligence in on the game. The plot thickens as he finds out about the Director and a few of the employees are dealing in drugs with a local mobster. There are some morbid murders and kinky sex scenes in the novel. The morbid perversion is just part of the total picture of the corrupt and demented Department of Health Inspections.
