Book Description
"Is it Hot in Here? should be required reading! This book takes the complicated topic of global warming and breaks it down for the layman. Nathan doesn't stand on a soapbox-he presents a fair and balanced argument for the climate of our world. If you live in a red state or a blue state, if you hug trees or drive a Hummer, this book is for you." -Josh Rubenstein, Meteorologist KCBS/KCAL Los Angeles "Nathan Cool's is perhaps the most thoughtful, comprehensive, well-written and accessible study of global warming I've ever read. If Is it Hot in Here? were being taught in high schools and colleges, we might not be suffering through this problem at all." -Aaron Kenedi, Editor-in-Chief Shift Magazine "This is the book for those who want to learn about issues related to global warming. The reader isn't pushed around by conspiracy theorists, jargoned scientists, aggressive environmentalists or people with agendas.rather, the nuts and bolts of the science, scientific process, political realities, and main debates over global warming are spelled out." -David B. Field, Oceanographer, Ph.D. Scripps Institution of Oceanography "With an informative and entertaining style, Nathan cuts through the many confusing and contradictory dialogues swarming around the global warming debate. When you read it, you'll see that it's not just the-sky-is-falling environmentalists who should be paying attention to voices like Cool's." -Gwen Mickelson, Santa Cruz Sentinel

ItÕs not your motherÕs menopause. Some women live through it and never miss a beat. Others suffer so many symptomsÑ severe hot flashes, sleeplessness, mood swingsÑthat they have trouble functioning.

Then, at the heart of the book, two essential sections: ÒWhat YouÕre Feeling Now,Ó which offers the relief of solid information on the symptoms of your menopausal lifeÑhot flashes, insomnia, mood swings, bleeding, memory loss, and those inexplicable glitches in thinking that make you feel like a kid with ADDÑplus the comfort of advice on what to do. And ÒStaying Healthy Forever,Ó a jam-packed guide to caring for your changing body: It begins by trusting your knowledge of yourself, then learning the things to do to ensure a long and healthy future, one in which you look your best and feel your best. No matter what your path through menopause, the experience is one of great change: and now for this great change, great help.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Yes, It's Hot in Here explores the entertaining history of the mascot from its jester roots in Renaissance society to the slapstick pantomime of the Clown Prince of Baseball, Max Patkin, all the way up to the mascots of the slam-dunk, rock-and-roll, Jumbotron culture of today. Along the way, author AJ Mass of ESPN.com (a former Mr. Met himself) talks to the pioneers among modern-day mascots like Dave Raymond (Phillie Phanatic), Dan Meers (K. C. Wolf), and Glenn Street (Harvey the Hound) and finds out what it is about being a mascot that simply won't leave the performer. Mass examines what motivates high school and college students to compete for the chance to wear a sweaty animal suit and possibly face the ridicule of their peers in the process, as well as women who have proudly served as mascots for teams in both the pro and amateur ranks. In the book's final chapter, Mass climbs inside a mascot costume one more time to describe what it feels like and, perhaps, rediscover a bit of magic.

Book Description
Are they hot flashes? Or is it just getting hot in here? Lisa Darling, a high-flying TV executive and twice-divorced mother of two, is navigating life with an opinionated teenager and a pet-obsessed grade schooler, organizing PTA events, and supporting her best friend through breast cancer treatment, all while in the throes of perimenopause. It’s no wonder her to-do list is on overdrive and she never has time for pilates or that DIY interior design project she keeps setting aside. But when LA-based media hotshot Zach Russo swoops in as a temporary stand-in for her best friend’s job, Lisa starts feeling overheated and flustered. But that’s just the menopause, right? She chooses to believe her hormone replacement therapy needs some adjusting, until she finds herself in a sexy—and seriously ill-advised—cinch with him. As things snowball, Lisa has to confront these long-forgotten feelings and ask herself what it is she wants and what it is she’s ready for. Hilarious, relatable, and delightfully swoon-worthy, It’s Getting Hot in Here is the laugh-out-loud, coming-of-middle-age, rom-com meets mom-com readers have been waiting for.
