  No Scrap Left Behind - My Life...

  Teralyn Pilgrim

  Teralyn Pilgrim had no idea the environmental and economic impact of food waste, or that she could save $100 a month by being waste free. But when a story of hungry children fills her with unbearable guilt, she decided to make a change to the way her family approached mealtime. Despite finicky kids and a skeptical husband, Pilgrim turned her feelings of guilt into action and created a zero-food waste kitchen. 
   
   
   
  Pilgrim began her journey by defining food waste with Rule #1: the Hungry Kid Test—would you throw something edible away with a hungry child watching? If the answer is yes, it can go in the compost. If the answer is no, then it's time to get creative. 
   
   
   
  Narrating her trials and errors—emphasis on errors—Pilgrim invites listeners to her table, where leftover food is a personal challenge to reduce waste, save money, and guard against squandering natural resources. Things get tricky when she discovers a five-year-old fish in her freezer, accidentally buys the grossest fat-free cookies in the world, and finds her dog is as picky as the kids. Addressing myths about how being waste-free is too hard (it's not) and whether expiration dates mean anything (they don't), Pilgrim teaches listeners clever ways to be resourceful while also offering a broader look at why food waste matters and the global effects of this massive problem.

  The Beauty Of Being Old - The...

  As you stand before the mirror, you may glimpse something unexpected—a reflection that feels familiar and strange. The face staring back at you shows the subtle marks of time. The youthful smoothness is replaced with the creases of age, and hair that once held vibrant color now carries a shade of gray. The body that once moved with ease now speaks in aches and fatigue. With each passing day, it may feel like something is being taken away—a vitality that once felt eternal and is now slipping away. But what if this view of aging is not the full truth? What if, instead of fearing it, we could embrace it? The Buddha often spoke of impermanence, the truth that everything in life always changes. "All conditioned things are impermanent," he taught, and when we see this with wisdom, we can turn away from suffering. In Buddhist thought, aging is not something to resist, but a natural part of life's unfolding. The more we resist it, the more we suffer, because we are fighting against the natural way of the world. It is not aging that causes pain, but our attachment to the belief that things should remain as they were. The fear of aging comes from our desires, from longing for the way things once were. Time moves forward, and so must we. The Buddha reminds us that nothing in this world is permanent, and all things arise and pass away. When we accept this reality, we are free to live with grace and peace. Aging becomes a part of the natural rhythm of life, not something to fear. It is through this acceptance that we find wisdom. As we grow older, we understand that those ahead of us on this journey are simply at a different stage, not different from us. And as we age, we shed the past and move forward with deeper wisdom. The Buddha teaches that the body is not the self, and it is this deeper truth that helps us find peace in the midst of change.

  Jesus told us one definitive sign that must happen before His return: the appearing of the abomination of desolation. We are told in two gospels to know what it is and to understand its impact on us and the world. Did you know that we are only two prophetic signs away from the appearing of the beast of the Revelation? Did you know that 99.3% of the world is already in a biometric identity system that will give the beast control over every financial transaction in the world? We are also only two signs away from his control and murderous attack against Christians and Jews. In this volume of the End Times Handbook, we discover the abomination of desolation in Daniel, we prove the one to whom it points, we learn the personality of the final world ruler, we discover what to expect during his rule, we discuss the infamous mark of the beast, we learn how Christians and Jews will be affected during his rule, we discuss the timing of his appearance, the timing of Jesus return in light of his appearing and how much of the end times the elect of God will experience before being caught away to meet Jesus in the clouds. Jesus is clear in Matthew 24:29-31 that His elect will not be gone before the beast appears: Are you ready for what is ahead? In this volume of the End Times Handbook, we grapple with the discomfort of Scripture as we learn how much of the beast kingdom the elect will experience and the signs for which to watch. Now is the time to get ourselves and others ready for what is ahead. If we wait until these events happen, it will be too late. How ready are you? This book narrated by the author will help you find out.

  Information Science: The Basics provides an accessible introduction to the multifaceted field of Information Science (IS). 
   
   
   
  Inviting listeners to explore a modern field of study with deep historical foundations, the book begins by considering the complexities of the term "information" and the information life cycle from classification to preservation. Each chapter examines a different area within IS, surveying its history, technologies, and practices with a critical eye. This interdisciplinary field incorporates a wide range of approaches which it shares with humanities, social science, and technology fields. What makes IS unique is its emphasis on the connections between information, technology, and society. The need to share information more effectively in response to social, environmental, and biomedical challenges has never been so urgent; the volume discusses the risks as well as benefits that come with the emerging technologies that make it possible. The book also explores how IS, with its long-standing commitment to intellectual freedom and digital inclusion, and its keen attention to the protection of privacy, data ethics, and algorithmic transparency, can contribute to the creation of a more open and equitable society.
