The Hungover Cookbook
Author: Milton Crawford
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1448155622
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Hangovers and what to do with them...the perfect gift for every occasion! Hangovers and what to do with them...the perfect gift for every occasion! The morning after - the drilling headache, the waves of nausea, the paranoia, the guilt, the shame - yes, it's the dreaded HANGOVER. We have all been there. But while most of us are familiar with the general misery, less well known are the nuances of the hungover state. According to P.G. Wodehouse there are six different types of hangover that can bring the high-spirited reveller of the previous night to their knees in the morning. They are: The Broken Compass, The Sewing Machine, The Comet, The Atomic, The Cement Mixer and The Gremlin Boogie. Each of these has very different and specific characteristics, and the treatments for each are by necessity varied. At last, we give you The Hungover Cookbook, a self-help manual that helps the morning after drinker to identify the nature of their hangover and tailor the treatment accordingly, with recipes and remedies that precisely suit the sufferer's state of mind - and body. With comforting and restorative recipes [s1] including: huevos rancheros (Mexican fried eggs); devilled kidneys on toast; kedgeree; hot bloody mary; special mustard & cheese mash with sausages; blue cheese on toast with pears and pickle; lemon and demerara sugar pancakes; knickerbocker glory with refresher sweets, and, of course, inevitably, the perfect bacon sarnie. This beautifully produced book does not promise the reader 'a cure' but it does offer some fun, and some good food, on the road to recovery. For those of a ginger disposition, it will offer a soothing experience, not just a list of ingredients, and transforms dealing with a hangover into a subtle, multi-faceted art rather than merely chucking a 'full English' at it. Milton Crawford Milton Crawford was born somewhere north of the Zambezi and west of the Rift valley in a small town in the middle of Africa. He has travelled the world in search of good liquor and in an attempt to outrun the hangovers that seem to follow him wherever he goes. He is an author and journalist, and in keeping with the most honourable traditions of the writing profession, a drinker of distinction. His previous books have been published under a more sober alias.

Irreducible Mind
Author: Edward F. Kelly
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9781442202061
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 836
Book Description
Current mainstream opinion in psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind holds that all aspects of human mind and consciousness are generated by physical processes occurring in brains. Views of this sort have dominated recent scholarly publication. The present volume, however, demonstrates empirically that this reductive materialism is not only incomplete but false. The authors systematically marshal evidence for a variety of psychological phenomena that are extremely difficult, and in some cases clearly impossible, to account for in conventional physicalist terms. Topics addressed include phenomena of extreme psychophysical influence, memory, psychological automatisms and secondary personality, near-death experiences and allied phenomena, genius-level creativity, and 'mystical' states of consciousness both spontaneous and drug-induced. The authors further show that these rogue phenomena are more readily accommodated by an alternative 'transmission' or 'filter' theory of mind/brain relations advanced over a century ago by a largely forgotten genius, F. W. H. Myers, and developed further by his friend and colleague William James. This theory, moreover, ratifies the commonsense conception of human beings as causally effective conscious agents, and is fully compatible with leading-edge physics and neuroscience. The book should command the attention of all open-minded persons concerned with the still-unsolved mysteries of the mind.

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die
Author: Sarah J. Robinson
Publisher: WaterBrook

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Pages : 448
Book Description
FOREWORD By Bruce McCandless II Former NASA Astronaut This volume is the fifth in the series on contemporary space topics by the Aerospace Technology Working Group with support from Secure World Foundation, the International Space University, and the International Institute of Space Commerce. It deals principally with the topic of sustainability of space operations. In all fields of challenging endeavor actually accomplishing an objective (e.g., putting a satellite into orbit) comes first, followed by exploitation or commercialization, and lastly by a realization that the resource is finite. Such "finite-ness" may come from considerations of pollution (e.g., space debris, propulsion effluent) or of actual limitations on the availability of the resource (e.g., crowding of Geostationary Earth Orbit - GEO). Both of these topics are among those discussed in detail in this volume. Developing countries, in particular, may find such considerations too burdensome, and this begs the need for regulation to avoid the classic "Tragedy of the Commons" situation. In the case of orbital debris we have collectively arrived at a point where tens of millions of tiny pieces of debris are currently in orbit, decaying at diverse rates in a situation where a single flake of paint has been demonstrated to be capable of causing damage when impacting at high relative velocities. At the other end of the spectrum, defunct satellites (e.g., ESA's Envisat) present discrete problems worthy of individual retrieval/disposal efforts but fraught with complications arising from ownership to potentially still effective ITAR constraints on access to onboard technology. And, of course, the managers of the International Space Station are absolutely paranoid about higher altitude orbital debris eventually decaying to and ultimately impacting their very large orbiting facility. While space may realistically be dubbed "infinite," very specific orbits, or sets of orbits, have practical capacity limits. In GEO, for example, spacing of satellites along it are subject to constraints arising from use of the same radio frequency spectra and the size of ground based antennas required to spatially discriminate between adjacent satellites. In popular high inclination sun-synchronous Earth imaging orbits, these all converge near the poles, creating a traffic management concern arising from the risk of collision. The subject of "green propellants" is treated from several aspects. The Liquid Oxygen / Liquid Hydrogen system, while yielding only water vapor from combustion, may have a significant carbon footprint associated with the manufacture of the LH2 from methane or methanol. Aluminum oxide, an exhaust product of common solid propellant boosters is generally regarded as inert, but the inhalation of fine particles of it can cause pulmonary fibrosis or other lung damage in humans. Additionally the need for oxidizer depletion shutdown in the family of hydrazine/oxidizer booster stages results in significant quantities of UDMH (for example) being dispersed upon impact of the early stages. No Foreword can do adequate justice to the carefully developed material within the publication itself. For a detailed and thought provoking coverage of the principal topics associated with the sustainability of space operations, this book is highly recommended, authoritative, and "a good read."
