The book begins with a detailed history and explanation of how type 2 diabetes has become the epidemic of the 21st century and why conventional treatments (including drugs) simply do not work. Jason Fung, a Canadian nephrologist, believes unequivocally that, yes, type 2 diabetes can be reversed, and his book, The Diabetes Code: Prevent and Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Naturally, is an instruction manual on just how to do it. Whether reversing type 2 diabetes is possible is highly contentious among medical professionals and scientists, but there is certainly more acknowledgment that “pausing” diabetes or putting it “in remission” is possible. In recent years, very-low-carbohydrate diets that include frequent intermittent fasting have emerged as a way to not only treat type 2 diabetes, but also reverse it. Type 2 diabetes is a highly complex health condition with many possible treatment options.

My eyes haze, rage winning over the calm bravado I attempted to force myself into.īefore anyone can stop me, not that there’s anyone who would give a shit to, I snatch the closest tray off the nearest table and in one swift move, one hard, full swing, smash it across the side of her face. The laughter echoes, growing louder until it wraps around my throat like my mother’s hands when in a fit, choking me until I lose focus. “Maybe if she wasn’t such a slut her whore mom wouldn’t have kicked her out for sleeping with her new man.” I keep walking, and I’m almost free and clear, almost through the door and away from the trouble I surely don’t need but can’t seem to escape.īut of course, nothing in my life is simple and just before my left foot joins my right, the final step through the open door, the bitch decides she’s not done and runs her mouth. Move your feet, exit this piece of shit cafeteria, and go get high. Inconceivably attractive and treated like kings.these are the boys of Brayshaw High. Too bad for me, they're determined to make sure I do. They expect me to play along in their games of hierarchy, to fall in line in the social order they’ve deemed me fit. I didn’t listen, and now I’m on their radar. Those were the exact words of my social worker when she dropped me in my newest hellhole, a place for “troubled teens.” “Girls like you aren’t exactly welcomed at a place like this, so keep your head down and look the other way.” To the one waiting for your time to fly, be strong. That the novel sold over one million copies its first week in Japan guarantees - absolutely, deservedly so - instant best-seller status stateside as well." - Library Journal (starred review) "One of Murakami's more memorable protagonists. In the end, Murakami writes love stories, all the more tender and often tragic for their exploration of the multiple realities in which his lovers live." - Booklist (starred review) "Murakami devotees will sigh with relief at finding his usual memes - the moon, Cutty Sark, a musical theme, ringing telephones, a surreal story-within-a story (this time about passing on death and possibly six fingers). There are always other dimensions in Murakami's novels, and while they can seem impenetrable, they eventually feed into and help vivify the powerful personal dramas taking place on a purely human level. and, of course, metaphysically, as Tazaki attempts to make sense of his own inner world and the dreams that shape his other dimension. A journey of immense magnitude, both physically. That same day I sat on a bench outside Bristol Cathedral with my M&S sandwich, when I spied a man across from me who looked a bit like Stephen. I encountered Stephen on the stairs on the first day, so introduced myself, and we discussed when to meet up to talk, and he was very friendly and accommodating. The nice thing about the CrimeFest is the informal way you come across your favourite authors all the time. This June I was pleased to see that Stephen would be attending the CrimeFest in Bristol, so I emailed him and asked if he would have time to be interviewed there. The series can best be described as Rural Noir, words that sounds like a contradiction in terms, but they are actually very accurate. This is Stephen Booth’s fictional town in the Peak District, based on Buxton, Bakewell, Chesterfield and odd bits of other places. There are eight books out so far, about police officers Ben Cooper and Diane Fry in Edendale. I later heard through one of the other regular customers, that she’d found him very creepy, so ever since, I have worried slightly about liking crime novels written by a creepy author. When Stephen came to the local bookshop four years ago, I decided against going to hear him speak, on account of being too busy. I’m not sure why I thought he’d want to know, but I’ve since found out that Stephen has received far crazier emails than mine. I first made contact with Stephen Booth a few years ago by emailing him to tell him about finding the Swedish translations of his crime novels in the bread section of my small holiday supermarket.

Needless to say, running a country is even harder work, and soon Duck is once again looking for something new.I enjoyed Duck for President, which pairs an entertaining tale from author Doreen Cronin with appealing watercolor artwork from illustrator Betsy Lewin. Soon deciding that running a farm is no fun, he next sets his sights on the governor's office, only to discover that running the state is also hard work. In this third humorous picture-book featuring the independent-minded animals on Farmer Brown's farm, Duck decides that he should be in charge, setting up an election that sees him rise to power. This “Cinderella” also brings more nuance to the wicked stepmother (Idina Menzel), whose pressure on her daughters and even Cinderella to “marry rich” comes from painful lessons in her past. Instead, Cabello’s mistreated stepdaughter (Ella, really, but never mind) yearns to open a dress shop, a business option not available to women in her kingdom despite all the 1980s/’90s-era singing and dancing that people do there. Writer-director Kay Cannon (“Pitch Perfect”) makes the most significant push toward a more modern Cinderella by dispensing with the notion that finding her prince (Nicholas Galitzine) will solve all of the protagonist’s problems. Premiering on Amazon, the movie mostly feels like Disney Channel fare with a pinch of “Moulin Rouge,” a colorful distraction lacking enough magic to fulfill dreams or wishes. Trying to retrofit “Cinderella” with a feminist sensibility is a big-time challenge, and despite ample energy and the sing-along benefits of a jukebox musical, a new version starring Camila Cabello can’t crack that code. Piercing the veil of secrecy that has long shrouded the world of Scientology, this insider reveals unprecedented firsthand knowledge of the religion, its obscure rituals, and its mysterious leader-David Miscavige. In Beyond Belief, she shares her true story of life inside the upper ranks of the sect, details her experiences as a member Sea Org-the church's highest ministry, speaks of her "disconnection" from family outside of the organization, and tells the story of her ultimate escape. Jenna Miscavige Hill, niece of Church of Scientology leader David Miscavige, was raised as a Scientologist but left the controversial religion in 2005. The two axes of my thesis are as follows. Often this is described as the transition of the group from being more concerned with art to being more concerned with politics, but as I will argue this definitional shorthand elides the significance of the Situationist critique of art, philosophy and politics. My wager is that the pivotal period of the group is to be found between 19, a period marked by the split of 1962. The focus of my thesis is to explain how the Situationist International (SI) became a group able to exert a considerable influence on the ultra-left criticism that emerged during and in the wake of the May movement in France in 1968. The Situationist International (1957-1972) was a small group of communist revolutionaries, originally organised out of the West European artistic avant-garde of the 1950s. Rich in allusions ("Less is More") and brilliant in depicting the passage of time (images conflate times of day, seasons and years), Joyce's work will inspire contemplation of the power of the book in its many forms.Īs triumphant in book form as in animated and interactive ones." The emphasis on connecting readers and books and the care of books pays homage to librarianship. The unifying metaphor of life as story is a powerful one, as is the theme of the transformative power of books. Even the furnishings and architectural details of the old-fashioned library in which the books "nest" like flying birds recall the codex. The motif of the bound, printed book is everywhere. Paradoxically, the animated books of the film and app are captured as though in a series of frozen frames. Filled with both literary (Shakespeare, Humpty-Dumpty) and film references ("The""Wizard of Oz", "The Red Balloon" and Buster Keaton), the picture book version of Joyce's story has a quiet contemplative charm that demonstrates the continuing allure of the printed page. Morris Lessmore, whose personal library is blown away in a terrible wind but who finds meaning caring for the books he finds in a marvelous library. The story, in a nutshell, concerns the titular book-loving Mr. * "Ironically, this book in praise of books first appeared as a much-praised iPad app and Academy Award-winning animated short film. Lucretius sets out, consequently, to clarify the Luxurious model of nature-including heavenly issues, life on earth, and the activities of the psyche and the soul-so as to dissipate our dread of the obscure. The Greek logician Epicurus liberated them from their obliviousness through science and a foundation of the laws of nature. Lucretius enlightens us concerning a prior time, when mankind was the oblivious slave of superstition, because of their dread of death and the divine beings. Lucretius at that point addresses Memmius and spreads out what he would like to cover in this work: “the working of the paradise above and the idea of the divine beings, and… the essential components of things from which nature makes, increments, and supports all things… ” (Book I, lines 50-60 page 4). Lucretius likewise lets us know in this supplication that he is composing this work for his companion, Memmius. He requests that her carry appeal to his words that will assist them with enduring. Lucretius starts his ballad with a petition to Venus, the Roman goddess of affection, whose regenerative forces permit everything in nature to prosper. |
