There are practical and compassionate alternatives to assisted suicide, and as many who have gone before us have found, the end of our lives on this earth may turn out to be a strange and wonderful opportunity for growth and internal healing.

  Hope Not Nope powerfully moves you towards a more positive existence by equipping you with the tools to update your mindset and become a modern-day champion. In the title and writing the term “Lifelong Athlete” is utilized to imply hope is cultivated in this identity, but also adds a fresh perspective: Hope is not wishful thinking, it’s learned and earned. The “Lifelong Athlete” identity is not just related to competitive events, it’s living out the values of servant-based leadership to achieve wholeness: Health. 
  “It is rare to hold such a comprehensive, point, and powerful compilation of all that is positive in my hands. I have to go back to The Power Of Positive Thinking, written by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale in 1952, to find its equal." ~Tim Green, NY Times Best Selling Author, Former Atlanta Falcons Star Defensive End

  The American bison (Bison bison), also commonly known as the American buffalo, is a North American species of bison that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds, became nearly extinct by a combination of commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century and introduction of bovine diseases from domestic cattle.  William T. Hornaday’s advocacy is credited with preserving the American bison from extinction.  This book, originally published in 1887, gives Mr. Hornaday's evidence of the Bison's impending extinction.  (Adapted from Wikipedia by Ann Boulais)

  Kobuk the Destroyer - And Other...

  A rollicking exploration of why the stuff we use (mostly) works—and a celebration of the mad genius of the engineers who ensure it does. 
  When a manufacturer wants to certify a product as “bear-resistant” —a cooler, a trash can, a camping food canister—they turn to the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee and its resident panel of product-testing bears. Over the years, one bear has become infamous for his penchant for cracking locking mechanisms and crushing manufacturer dreams, but thereby helping to keep our food—and us—safe: Kobuk the Destroyer. 
   
  From “childproof” bottle caps to the cars and planes we ride, such stories underlie the products we use every day and can generally trust to do what they say and not (unexpectedly) dump us out of the sky or blow up. As Alex Davies reveals, this amazing reliability is thanks to the mostly invisible, maniacal, yet methodical work of test engineers, who divine how everything and anything could go wrong and plan for it in advance—using rocket sleds, chicken cannons, and any means necessary. Uncovering the surprisingly profound science behind the fine print on the label, Kobuk the Destroyer is as wildly entertaining as it is illuminating.
