30-Day Whole Foods Slow Cooker Cookbook: Irresistible Recipes for a New and Healthier Life by Vanessa Olsen (224 Reviews)    Price verified 3 minutes ago

Over 80% of Americans have a slow cooker. If you're one of them, you need this cookbook, and you need to start cooking healthy whole-food recipes with it! The slow cooker as we know it has been around since the 1970's, and has yet to go out of fashion. It's convenient, easy to use, easy to clean, and as you'll soon learn, the perfect way to prepare whole-food meals for the whole family. What are whole foods? It is food as nature intended it - unprocessed and unrefined. So many foods in stores today have had their nutrients stripped out, and are built back up with artificial add-ins, sugar, and other junk to make them bigger and taste "better." If you eat this food, the results are poorer health, weight gain, and vulnerability to diseases as serious as diabetes and cancer. With whole foods, however, all the nutrients have been preserved, so you're getting the real deal. It's grass-fed beef, butter, wild-caught fish, organic vegetables and fruit, whole-grains, and so on. You'll be getting all the nutrients like fiber, calcium, and fatty acids that your body craves. The slow cooker is one of the best ways to prepare whole foods, because the nutrients are preserved better than other cooking methods, thanks to the low temperatures. The slow cooking process also creates rich flavors, which are made richer when you add in spices and herbs, so you'll never have to worry about healthy food being tasteless. This book walks you through everything you need to know about slow cooking, from good brands to how to troubleshoot common problems. You'll also find a chapter on how to stock a pantry full of whole foods and what you can expect to feel like after a month of eating well. The heart of the book is, naturally, the recipes. You'll find good eats like: • Ham and spinach frittatas • Sweet 'n sour chicken • Spicy sloppy joe's • Dijon and apple pork chops • Clam chowder • Butternut squash and bean chili • Homemade pizza sauce • Almond banana bread You'll ...

What a Nice Guy by Phil Torcivia (25 Reviews)    Price verified 18 minutes ago

Do you know any nice guys? Perhaps you're married to or good friends with one. Well, consider the possibility that this nice guy is so frustrated with his relationship failures that he needs to vent to keep from turning into a bad boy with anger issues. Then, try not to spit hot coffee as you read his sarcastic rants about why men and women don't seem to fit. Excerpt from What a Nice Guy -- Snippity Doo Dah My initial vasectomy consultation is scheduled for today and I can't get this song out of my head: Snippity doo dah, snippity aye, My, oh my, what a wonderful day! None of my sperm is going to stray. Snippity doo dah, snippity aye. Mister blue balls getting older, No child support It's so practical. Everything's satisfactual!

Men, can I have an amen? You betcha. Look, ladies, I turn fifty this year. I need offspring like I need square dancing lessons. If I were to have one of my little guys actually find an egg, that would make me almost seventy by the time Junior went to prom. I'd be riding my daughter down the aisle on my scooter. I've done the math. It costs $800, which is equivalent to twenty morning-after pills, two abortions, or a case of Silver Oak wine. I'll sacrifice the latter for peace of mind. It is also one-hundredth the cost of a college education, one-tenth the cost of a used car (plus repairs), and half the cost of outgrown sneakers. I know, I know. "You still need to wear condoms. What about STDs?" That's true (and it sucks), but it makes the whole process less stressful when breakage or slippage occurs. Actually, I think I've only had a rubber break once in my life. Slippage has happened numerous times. (OK, stop with the tiny penis jokes.) I'm sure we've all had that shocking/embarrassing moment when ole Willy leaves the party without his ...

Cow Dung - A Down-To-Earth Solution To Global Warming And Climate Change by Dr. Sahadeva dasa (Soul Science University Press) (42 Reviews)    Price verified 30 minutes ago

Environmental crisis is for real and it's coming around faster than you think. It's not a brainchild of some conspiracy theorist but a tangible, perceivable fact, proven by the catastrophic events all over the world. But for most of us, caught up in the daily grind, it's hardly a subject worth pondering over. Common man in the streets of London, New York or Delhi has very little time to worry about some ozone layer up there or some damn iceberg in the North Pole. At best, it is a snow bear's problem. But the scientific fraternity and many political leaders don't think so. They are waking up to the horrors of global warming and climatic change. Hectic efforts are on to contain the damage but with very little success. This book provides a simple solution to this grave crisis which has the potential to wipe out life altogether. This is a calamity of unprecedented proportions coming our way and a point of no return for the industrial civilization. One of the arguments sceptics throw back at you is that the climate has always changed, and that is absolutely right. It's the rate of change that is the problem right now. It's changing so quickly that it exceeds our adaptive capacity. We are in a hole and it's time to stop digging.

Then the kitchen was trashed, and the knives and pokers came flying at her, and she barely escaped alive. It was time to admit that there was a problem - a very deadly problem.

To be the nice guy I must constantly look for your best traits, admire them, remind you how much I appreciate them (but, not too often as that would be creepy), and avoid any sensitive areas. This is a chore I must endure if I'm to maintain any friends or lovers. Sad.

Turning Trick by Alison Beamon (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

"For each question you ask I get a piece of your clothing." I ran that through my brain. I could ask a couple of questions and then put it off until another time. I had on at least five items, so if I only asked three questions then I would be left in my underwear. Was I really considering this game of his? "Okay." I said not looking away from his eyes. "Three pieces." He said holding out his hand. I had not counted on that. "That's not fair." How could he count those questions when he did not even answer them? "You asked three questions." "But you did not answer them." I reminded him. Because telling me that my questions were stupid was not answering them. "It's a brotherhood." He said and I slipped out of my jacket. He took it and folded it over his arm. I hoped he did not mean to actually keep my clothes. "Longer than I can remember." That was not much of an answer but I slipped out of my skirt and held it out to him. Again he folded it over his arm. "Don't answer that question." I said holding up my hand. He smiled at me. "But it is such an easy one." It was not one that I meant to ask. "Have you ever killed someone?" If I was going to have to strip for his answers then my questions were going to get good. I was not going to bare it all for the stupid questions as he put it. "Yes, but not for the club." I wanted to ask him to explain that but as I slipped out of my blouse I knew I had to be careful with my questions. My blouse joined the rest of my clothes over his arm. I swallowed, I had to get this question right because it was going to be the last one I asked. Trick stood there just waiting as I considered it. "Chicken." Was that a question, or a statement? Either way he was right. I wanted to know what he meant by that, but I wanted to keep my underwear on. Shaking my head I took a deep breath. "You gotta know when to fold um."

But with the police staking vampires on sight, and no safe haven from the dawn, I need allies. Rock, a stunningly-rugged and massive man, offers me shelter, and I'm instantly drawn to this protective and gentle giant, feeling a hunger inside me like never before.

Blood Moon: A Harry Chin Murder Mystery by Ralph Griffith (1 Review)    Price verified 42 minutes ago

In Darwin, Australia in the Northwest Territories, crocodiles aren't the only predators lurking about. Inspector Harry Chin, and his partner, Ash Friday, a fierce Aboriginal detective with dark brooding eyes, are sent from Canberra to investigate the murder of an Australian Federal Police Officer, Peter Riggs. Riggs had been working undercover on an international heroin ring that seems to be coming in through the Port of Darwin. The officer had been found in his car dead from an overdose of heroin--the very drug that he had been investigating. Everything seems to be pointing to a heroin ring, but for Harry, something smells off. The scene reeks of staged tragedy, the victim's demise too tidy, too convenient.

I AM The Soul’s Heartbeat: The Seven I AM Sayings in The Gospel of St John by Kristina Kaine (24 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

This is an esoteric exploration of the meaning behind the words Jesus spoke at intervals and recorded by St John in his Gospel: I am the Bread of Life, I am the Light of the World, I am the Door of the Sheep, I am the Good Shepherd, I am the Resurrection and the Life, I am the Way, the Truth and the Life and I am the True Vine. This work examines the actual Greek words which reveal quite different interpretations. In the Greek, the words ego eimi mean I AM and this I AM is the Higher Self, an important part of the human psyche. Our task is to integrate the I AM into our soul to give our soul its rightful heartbeat. Much of the turmoil in the world today stems from this process of disconnecting from the old group consciousness and assuming the individuality of the I AM.

Parables of Hippolyte the Fabulist: "The Things We See and Cannot Unsee" by Hippolyte Flandrin (6 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Hippolyte Flandrin, almost from the moment of birth, was told who he is and what he is, he was told to be an individual and to be alone in the lonely crowd, he was told what he ought to live and to die for, and he was condemned to ride a bus with an assembly of strangers like a pile of leaves swept together by the wind at the end of a dead-end street. On the road to find out why, Hippo crossed paths with Diogenes, Socrates, Siddhartha, Kierkegaard, Jesus, Hardy, Wittgenstein, Joyce and like-minded travelers. He figured out nothing except how to live a happy life guided by reason and compassion. Hippo began to share this wisdom, as if to teach algebra to a dog, but trouble followed. So he clothed his wisdom in pretty little stories or parables of the things we can see and cannot unsee. His friends were profoundly engaged and enlightened and so collected 50 of their favorite parables in this book for you. The irrationality and hypocrisy of the rule-following and role-playing of the world we are condemned to live in cause stress and depression in many people. Some of them lose control, become human beings, and begin to think for themselves. Hippolyte writes about those people. He may excite you, he may horrify you, he may amuse you, he may make you believing or unbelieving, and he may shake your sanity. But as the tree absorbs the rain, Hippolyte Flandrin will awaken you.

A great adventure! Kathryn M, Netgalley Reviewer For pure escapism, Gullivar Jones and the Treasure of the Tsar fits the bill. A mix between Raiders of the Lost Ark, Baron Muchausen and Pirates of the Caribbean. A real creative dive into adventure with well built, although fleeting, characters. I am not sure why this author does not have more exposure. Andy M, Netgalley reviewer Gullivar Jones and the Treasure of the Tsar was a quick and easy adventure read, even when it touched on some heavier topics toward the end. The cover reminded me of Indiana Jones and that vibe was in the story. Parts also reminded me a bit of myth re-tellings like Percy Jackson. I was a little unsure how it could end in a satisfying way while I was reading, but I was happy with the ending when I got to it. Vanessa R, Netgalley reviewer

The History of America: A concise history of the story of The Unites States of America from George Washington to Jimmy Carter. by Nehal Kaur Price verified 4 hours ago

An outsider's perspective reveals the United States as a country of unrivalled influence and generosity. It has accomplished exploits that have irrevocably influenced the path of human events in its comparatively limited but storied history. Most significantly, its dramatic World War II action helped to liberate millions of people from the grip of tyranny by overthrowing Adolf Hitler's evil regime. In addition to serving as a haven on the battlefield, the United States has provided food and shelter to countless people who were fleeing hardship. Its charitable activities go far beyond its national borders; through enormous humanitarian help, it has lessened suffering and aided in the development of nations in remote regions of the world. The country is not without faults; occasionally, its feeling of exceptionalism leads to divisive foreign policy, but overall, the effects of its activities lean strongly in favour of the advancement of humanity. The United States is still a powerful force for good in a complex world. So, for the nation that fought off Hitler's armies, saved the world, and has generally been a country that has been a source of good more than any other nation in world history, whether you are a smart kid looking for a broad overview of America up to the time of Jimmy Carter or whether you are a curious adult who is just trying to learn more about the history of this country, I hope you enjoy reading this modest effort to summarise "The History of America."

The first sign of any drama, no matter how sexually starved I happen to be, and I lose her number. Perhaps this makes me unpopular with the ladies. Maybe I'm getting a reputation. Meh What I am hoping is that by reading my take on the whole mating game, you'll have a better appreciation for whatever predicament you're in, be that anything between marital bliss and been lovin' your fist. Karma Kicked Me Sure, I'm bitter sometimes. Aren't you? How many times do you let karma kick you before you become jaded like me, and begin to expect it? So, you're pissed. He dumps you for a skank-hole. Go ahead and be hurt -- that's natural. It's an ego slap. As you get older, you'll begin to take these more in stride. Sure, you'll complain about it to a friend, relative, or co-worker, but you'll get over it. Look at this book as my way of getting over it. A collection of irreverent, sarcastic, vulgar, crude, whatever-you-call-it essays containing my odd perception of life, which might actually lower my blood pressure by writing, and generate a giggle or two for the reader. WARNING: F-Word Used Over 160 Times Before we go any further, let me warn you that I love to cuss. F-ing love it. You're going to read plenty of bad words, so reading aloud is strongly discouraged, unless you're in church. Also, since I have taken certain liberties with our language, and I am a bit whiny and insensitive, I've decided to enhance this tome with -- drum roll, please -- recipes! Yay, Recipes!

As both nations grow and swell, one lusting for mineral wealth, the other for fertile land, differences in belief and custom become divisive. Factions rise desirous of conquest. A chance misfortune sparks bloodshed, and as this bloodshed increases, two blacksmiths from opposing cultures find themselves thrust into prominence, living out their personal grudge on the stage of international war.

Tall Short Stories by John A. Shepherd (4 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

I have decided to let my wicked sense of humour loose for a while, so here goes. This is a collection of stories taken from life. Some are true, while others are just plain made up. Ranging from real life experiences and situations to downright imagination. The football story alas is all so very true, being the trauma of my life. The woman who wore the Doc Martens really does exist. I call her Lush, she calls me, hard to get. Will she ever throw me a lifeline, I hope not? Granny really did struggle to spit out the Post Office stories, but a few drinks soon loosened her tongue, she couldn't bring herself to mention the word vibrator so ended up writing it down on a piece of paper and passed it under the table. Then followed it up by asking why it needed batteries? The keyboard warrior is also a real person, the author of this book. I hope you enjoy them!

Dating is a humorous struggle for a recently divorced man who has no clue what women want. Excerpt from Still a Nice Guy - What's Your Sign? Astrology is bullshit. That doesn't keep people--including First Ladies--from making decisions based on their horoscopes. Some women decide if they are compatible with a man based on his sign. "Oh, you're a Virgo? Well, then this will never work." She's right; it won't, because I don't want to waste time with a deluded person. It's time we come up with a new set of signs, and I'm just the man to do it. • Hairies. Featuring Greeks and Italians, this group includes people with constant shower drain clogs and an arsenal of clippers and razors. • Saggyderryarius. Old folks with droopy butts. • Whorpio. Also known as "sex junkie," obsessed with enjoying the finer things in life in exchange for putting out. • Borus. This includes people who dominate every group event and keep us all on the edge of our seats with their Facebook updates, or so they think. • Gleeyo. One with obnoxious laughter hiding a deep depression. • Hebra. Man with boobs. • Ginani. Martini addicts. People who drink from triangular glasses and act catty. • Furgo. Women with hairless privates that make it easy for men to find glory while fantasizing about their high school sweethearts. • Glancer. Voyeurs who can't talk to women without staring down the cleavage. For you blue-collar types: • Construction Zone. Visit Del Mar, La Jolla, or Scottsdale to discover wild packs of these Botox-laden beasts. • School Zone. Cougars out to teach youngsters how to make a Cosmopolitan and find the G-spot. • Yield. A sign of indifference. I use this one often. It represents someone who would rather receive directions than guess what you want. It also means that I don't care what your sign is.
