Blazing Desert Treks

Amara Darwin

Maison d'édition: Publifye

Synopsis

"Blazing Desert Treks" masterfully combines scientific research with practical field experience to create a comprehensive guide for safe and rewarding desert hiking. This authoritative resource explores the delicate balance between human endurance and the demanding conditions of arid environments, offering evidence-based strategies drawn from studies across major desert regions like the Mojave, Sonoran, and Great Basin.

 
The book's unique approach integrates cutting-edge physiological research with traditional navigation techniques, making it invaluable for both experienced hikers and those new to desert environments. The text progresses logically through four main sections, beginning with desert ecosystem dynamics and geological formations before delving into the body's physiological responses to extreme heat.

 
Central to the book's methodology is a three-tier framework focusing on pre-hike acclimatization, active thermal management, and post-trek recovery protocols. The author draws from sports medicine and military training programs to develop practical strategies for thermal regulation and hydration, while incorporating modern GPS technology with time-tested navigation methods.

 
What sets this book apart is its methodical yet accessible presentation of complex concepts, supported by real-world hiking experiences and wilderness rescue data. The content particularly resonates with intermediate to advanced hikers and outdoor educators, offering detailed checklists, monitoring protocols, and personalized assessment tools for heat tolerance and hydration needs.

 
While primarily focused on North American deserts, the principles and strategies presented are applicable to arid environments worldwide, making it an essential resource for anyone planning to explore these challenging landscapes.

I Was Famous on the Internet

Jerry Banfield

You are about to experience my journey of being famous on the Internet. I reached the top—millions of followers, billions of views, six-figure months, and fans in every country. From the outside, it looked like everything people chase. Inside, it felt like a prison I built. Every click and dollar cost my peace, my family, and my sanity. In I Was Famous on the Internet, I take you behind the scenes of online fame—not the filtered dream, but the raw truth of what it does to your mind and soul. I went from a broke ex-police officer to a top Udemy instructor earning millions, became an early crypto YouTuber and a Facebook Gaming partner, and burned out until I deleted everything. You will see how platforms hook creators and audiences, how algorithms reward addiction and punish authenticity, and how chasing numbers never fills the emptiness inside. You will see the trap that turns dreamers into slaves to attention, and the wake-up call that made me walk away. I reveal how screens reshaped my family, how I justified my own addiction as work, and what it felt like to realize I was no different from my kids. You will read about wild highs (a $90,000 month) and brutal lows (burnout, bankruptcy, public humiliation), and how each crash became a new beginning until I finally saw through the illusion. This book is my confession, my warning, and my gift. If you dream of going viral, being a creator, or quitting your job to chase freedom online, I want you to know what it is really like. If you spend hours scrolling, I want you to see what you are giving up. By the end, you will understand why I deleted the channels, the followers, and the income—and why that was the best decision of my life. I found peace not by becoming more successful online, but by becoming human again. Are you ready to see what Internet fame really feels like—the truth behind the dream, the cost of the clicks, and the freedom that waits when you finally log off?

Magnetic Current

Edward Leedskalnin

Magnetic Current is a short pamphlet by eccentric sculptor and writer Edward Leedskalnin. Detailing his many experiments with magnets, this work posits that it is not metal itself that is magnetic. Rather, tiny individual magnet particles that circulate in and around the metal give it its pull.Edward Leedskalnin was born in Latvia in 1887. While his formal education lasted only until 4th grade, he was intensely curious and spent much of his youth reading. At the age of 26, Leedskalnin became engaged. But as the young woman was only 16, she (or her mother) decided that he wasn’t a suitable match and called off the wedding the day before it was set to occur. Heartbroken, Leedskalnin emigrated to the United States. In 1923, he purchased an undeveloped acre of land in Florida City. Over the next 28 years, Leedskalnin cut massive pieces of oolite rock from his property, moved them, and sculpted them—all on his own. He built a two-story tower from oolite, which served as his living quarters. In the grounds below, sculptures and carved stone furniture dot the landscape. The project was dedicated to his “Sweet Sixteen,” the woman who rejected him years before.During the years of his construction project, Leedskalnin studied and tested magnets from his home base of Rock Gate. His findings were eventually compiled into Magnetic Current, a short pamphlet detailing his theories of magnetism. The pamphlet explains many of his experiments. Using U-shaped, round, and bar magnets, as well as car batteries, light bulbs, and coils of wire, he demonstrates the movements of magnetic currents in a double helix pattern, swirling around each other to create pull.
