Dr. Joe & What You Didn't Know: 99 Fascinating Questions About the Chemistry of Everyday Life - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: What does being barefoot and pregnant on a cactus have todo with cherry ice cream? You probably think that's a prettybizarre question. But there is method to the madness. For overtwo decades now, I've tried to answer the public's questionsabout everyday chemistry on the radio, I hope with somedegree of success. Then, a few years ago, I had an idea. Whynot spice things up by turning the situation around and askingmy audience questions?Everybody seems to like quiz shows, especially when thereare prizes at stake, so I took to beginning each program with aquestion, offering a prize for the first right answer. We're talkinglocal radio here, not national TV, so the prizes were modest, buwe did manage to come up with some books, gift certificates,restaurant meals, and highly coveted "Dr. Joe" T-shirts. A newadventure was in the offing! I started off with some prettystraightforward questions — like, "Why does ouzo turn whitewhen you add water to it?"; and, "What is emu oil?"; and, "Whydoes lemon juice lighten the color of tea?" All good questions, Ithought, and somewhat challenging.Indeed, for the first few weeks, callers struggled to answermy questions; then suddenly it seemed as though they hadtaken smart pills. They started providing the correct answers7INTRODUCTIONDR. JOE SCHWARCZwith impressive frequency. It didn't take long for me to figureout what was going on. I wasn't testing the audience anymore,I was posing my questions to Google. And Google, as weknow, is pretty smart. As soon as a question passed my lips,those little fingers hit the keyboard. I tried instituting an honorcode, requesting that respondents not run to their computers.Yeah, sure.Obviously, another approach was needed. I attempted tophrase the questions in ways that would confound the searchengines. Like, "What is the connection between tangerine trees,marmalade skies, and morning glory?"; or, "What is the linkbetween Frankenstein and frog legs?" This approach seemed towork, and that's why you'll find a number of unusual-sound-ing questions in this little volume, which is a collection of thequestions I've posed on my radio show over the years. Ofcourse, you'll also find the answers — at least, my version ofthem.The questions come from a number of fields, but all havesome interesting scientific connection. There is no specific orderto the questions, no systematic attempt to educate. What I'vetried to do is demonstrate science's broad scope and show howscientific pursuit links to so many areas of our culture. So,come along for the ride, poke around, read a little here, a littlethere, pick up some bits of knowledge to fling around thedinner table, and have some fun doing it. And if you want toknow what being barefoot and pregnant on a cactus has to dowith cherry ice cream, just turn the page.

نویسندگان: خلاصه: 1IntroductionKevin describes Ashley’s life as like a roller coaster ride. Some-times she’s really “up” and excited— bursting with energy, filledwith enthusiasm, and feeling like she’s on top of the world.Other times it’s the exact opposite: her mood is way down,she’s lethargic, and she’s negative about everything, includingbeing certain her misery never will end.When Ashley’s feeling good she acts impulsively—speeds,goes on spending sprees, drinks too much—and doesn’t think ofthe potential negative consequences of her actions. Kevin hastried to caution her when she’s like this, but Ashley gets angryand accuses him of being “a stick in the mud.” So during theseperiods he’s learned it’s best to keep silent but stay “on alert,”like a firefighter waiting for the next emergency call.When Ashley’s depressed there are problems too. She hastrouble at her job— missing days, not getting her work done,and isolating herself from her coworkers by keeping her officedoor shut. She worries about losing her job, and though Kevintries to reassure her, the truth is he’s worried too. Could theymanage without his wife’s income? Would she be okay if shewere home all day instead of away and occupied, or would sheget even more depressed?
I Am No One You Know: Stories - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: They’d been drinking since about 10:00 p.m. We saw this guy walk-ing by himself by the railroad track, cutting through a field and onto Route11, it looked kind of weird, suspicious. We didn’t know who it was . . . Well,maybe they could see the boy was dark-skinned. Maybe one of themyelled out Nigger! Those skid marks in the gravel . . . Maybe Leo, whowas driving, aimed the car at the kid just to scare him, to make himrun. After that, things got confused.It had been approximately 12:15 a.m. on April 9, 1973, whenJadro Filer left his girlfriend’s house to walk back to his home, a ten-minute walk under ordinary circumstances, across the railroad em-bankment, along the highway shoulder past darkened gas stations, aTaco Bell, a McDonald’s. It was 12:50 a.m. when an emergency callwas made reporting a badly beaten young man lying in a roadsideditch near a railroad culvert. (No other call was reported that night.But the following morning, when news of the beating began to spreadthrough Perrysburg, an anonymous caller would report to police thathe’d seen what appeared to be a new-model Buick in the vicinity ofthe attack scene, parked off the highway shortly after midnight. Thecaller, slowing, then accelerating to speed past, had an impression offour or five young white men “involved in some activity like fight-ing.” The caller would supply police with the first three digits of a carregistered to Leo Dellamora.) By 12:50 a.m., however, Leo andMario were back home. They’d dropped Walt and Don Brinkhausoff, and come directly to Crescent Avenue. At this time they hadn’tknown, would claim they’d had no idea, that Jadro Filer had beenbeaten so badly he’d never regain consciousness. They were aroused,excited. Maybe a little panicked. I overheard them speaking togetherin low, urgent voices. I heard “nigger” several times repeated. I heardtheir nervous laughter.

The Complete Canadian Eldercare Guide: Expert Solutions to Help You Make the Best Decisions for Your Loved Ones - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: E ldercare and its inherent superhero responsibilities are the new facts of life for aging Canadians and the invincible baby boomers. Today, as adult sons and daughters with high-maintenance careers, as spouses with ailing partners or rela- tives, we find ourselves juggling work, life, and care responsibility. We are, as the saying goes, “sandwiched” between the care needs of others and our still-dependent children. Research shows that families are, for the most part, unpre- pared for the eldercare challenges that lie ahead. Many move directly into “care in crisis” mode, make plans on the fly, and regret not making decisions about aging issues in advance. Workplace health, wellness, and productivity issues are huge. Today, employers and governments identify productivity, absen- teeism, presenteeism, and retention as key factors for their aging work forces with the statistics pointing to eldercare as one of the biggest hurdles to overcome. Of note: • More than 3.5 million Canadians are currently over the age of 65. By the year 2020, that number will more than double.1 • For 70% of Canadians age 30 to 60, caregiving for aging parents is now a reality with eldercare being shared across families.2 • More than 70% of informal caregivers are women, most often wives (24%) or adult daughters (29%).آیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
