Summary

A vivid account of what it’s like to experience depression—and practical advice for those who are dealing with this debilitating illness.   Do you know someone who’s depressed? Do you live with someone suffering from depression? Are you depressed? Would you like to learn strategies to cope with depression?    Being depressed is not a matter of personal weakness. One out of ten is afflicted with this illness. The other ninety percent know someone who struggles to cope—a spouse, partner, parent, sibling, child, relative, or friend. Family and friends want to help, but don't know how. This book blends a remarkable firsthand account of how depression feels, incorporating details from the author’s own journals, with practical strategies for those who suffer—or care about someone who does.   Overcoming depression takes work. Sometimes just getting through every minute of every hour of the day is all that can be done . . . but it can be done.

    LA is a beast. A city that swallows most with its glamour and glitz. 
Not Sarah Fuller though. 
Stubborn and relentless, Sarah refuses to be changed by her surroundings. Often, she takes a cynical approach, judging the world around her, though never taking anything too seriously. 
Thrown back into the dating arena in her late thirties, Sarah encounters brand new challenges. 
Readers will laugh out loud at the adventures and mishaps this sassy protagonist gets herself into. She explores LA life, seeing it through her unique lens. 
Hair extensions, goat yoga, socialites and all the strangeness that comes out of LA weave together in this crazy, episodic adventure. 
Can you handle the absurdities?  
Fans of Chelsea Handler and Sex in the City will love Everyone in LA is an Asshole, a series that doesn’t hold back and says what we’re all secretly thinking.

    'As I studied the maps, one thing about them captured my imagination - Across this blank space was written one challenging word, "Unexplored"'
In 1937 two of the twentieth century's greatest explorers set off to explore an unknown area of the Himalaya, the breath-taking Shaksgam mountains. With a team of surveyors and Sherpas, Eric Shipton and H.W. Tilman located and mapped the land around K2, the second-highest mountain in the world. It was their greatest venture, and one that paved the way for all future mountaineering in that area of the Himalaya. For Shipton and Tilman, exploration was everything, with a summit a welcome bonus, and Blank on the Map is the book that best captures their spirit of adventure.
With an observant eye and keen sense of humour, Shipton tells how the expedition entered the unknown Shaksgam mountains, crossing impenetrable gorges, huge rivers and endless snow fields. There's a very human element to in Shipton's dealings with his Sherpa friends, and with his Balti porters, some of whom were helpful, while some were less so. The expedition uncovers traces of ancient cultures and visits vibrant modern civilisations living during the last days of the British Empire. Only when all supplies are exhausted, their clothes in tatters and all equipment lost do the men finally return home. A mountain exploration classic.

    The Spoken Word Bible - Genesis

    The book of Genesis, written at the beginning of recorded history, remains a thoroughly unique document. This ancient work transcends the primitive mythologies of the ancient Near East as a divine account of Earth's earliest ages. It is informative in its content, beautiful in its arrangement, and inspiring in its appeal. There is something of value for everyone—             the scientist, the historian, the theologian, the housewife, the farmer, the traveler, and the man or woman of God. As a revelation of the mind of God to the minds of men and women, Genesis makes a fitting beginning for the story of God's love for his creation, and this, the King James Version of the Old Testament, remains the favorite of millions for both its inspirational and poetic qualities.
