  Echolocation

  • 0

  As a series, the poems in Echolocation swing back and forth from the natural world keenly observed--rain, birds, sunflowers, even a clam-- to the contortions of the human heart, mostly caused by hurt and loss. And isn't that where the best poetry resides, between the thing and the emotion, the swan and the grief? 
  --BILLY COLLINS 
  Echolocation is a collection driven by image and figurative language-- often the simile--and Bliumis-Dunn has both power of observation and imagination which she uses to great, lovely, terrifying and always compelling effect in these vivid, near- and far-looking poems. 
  --MARTHA RHODES 
  Sally Bluimis-Dunn's spare and stunning lyrics of grief and loss restore us to the clarity, and the clear finality, of our deepest emotions. They are grave and formal while being at the same time almost unbearably human and intimate. 
  --VIJAY SESHADRI 
  Sally Bliumis-Dunn leaves the reader of Echolocation in deceptively complex verbal landscapes in which both literal and figurative language play off each other with spare yet lapidary results in poems that focus on such everyday subjects as family, animals, loss, the seasons, menopause, and disaster with a compassionate, distilling eye. The voice that emanates from these poems is quiet but deeply resonant with generous stirrings beneath. She writes with what John Keats has called "disinterestedness"--a clear-headed objectivity that combines lucid narrative with lyrical charge.

  Millions of Americans suffer from back pain and try numerous remedies to ease their suffering. 
  It's unlikely that many of them have considered sex to ease that aching back. Dr. Michel Rice DC MD aims to change that. In Sexy Back, Rice presents an irreverent, often side-splitting regimen for laying back pain to rest while getting laid. 
  Rest assured—there's no hype here, just a clear explanation of common causes of back pain and a workable program for relief. Remedies involve secret tricks to instantly look and feel sexier, sexercises for your back and core and, while the tone is light and the exercises have cheerily suggestive names, the science behind them is sound and fully explained. 
  Sexy Back is a hands-on list of activities for better back health and pain-free sex. As a Sexy Back reader, you can also consult with Dr. Rice and his Sexy Back training team, receive a signed copy of Sexy Back with a personalized prescription to help you heal back pain (yours or someone else's), and receive a special price on the upcoming online sexercise video streaming program. Join the Sexy Back Club to share your personal challenges and gains on a private or community level. 
  Dr. Michel Rice treated over 15,000 back pain patients before becoming a director of Better Call Doc Clinic and the Ontario Research Medical Group. His focus on the intersection of sex and chronic back pain came to Rice from unsolicited pronouncements from dozens of single lady patients.  
  Alas, their renewed spinal health was the result of their lucky break of having a one-night stand. Nine years later came the birth of a sexy rehab program called Sexy Back.Book details

  In Deep Waters - Spiritual Care...

  The starting point for In Deep Water: Spiritual Care for Young People in a Climate Crisis is not news: the world as we know it is shifting. Several millennia of climate stability have come to an abrupt end. 
   
   
   
  But, observes Talitha Amadea Aho, the young people of today do not remember stability. They see the world through crisis-colored glasses. Climate change is creating a spiritual emergency that is hitting their generation harder than any other. 
   
   
   
  Today's climate crisis calls people of faith to a communal spiritual practice of care, especially for those who are more vulnerable because of their youth—the children, youth, and young adults of Generation Z. We must learn how to offer spiritual care that is informed by the spiritual-ecological crisis of their generation. 
   
   
   
  This book will help you keep young people at the center of your community and listen to the troubles they have to share. Whether you are a Gen Z peer or a caring adult of any other generation, In Deep Water will show you how to offer ecologically informed spiritual care. 
   
   
   
  We all need to do it today; we cannot wait until one of today's youngest generations grows up.

  Stars in the Dark - The...

  For centuries, humans have gazed into the night sky, believing that what they saw—stars, planets, glowing nebulae—was all there was. But as our tools for exploring the universe improved, scientists began to notice something strange. The visible matter in galaxies simply wasn’t enough to explain how those galaxies moved and behaved. Something unseen, something invisible, seemed to be exerting a powerful influence on everything. 
  In the 1930s, astronomer Fritz Zwicky was studying a group of galaxies known as the Coma Cluster. When he measured how fast the galaxies within the cluster were moving, he realized they were traveling far too quickly to be held together by the visible matter alone. According to the laws of gravity, the cluster should have torn itself apart. Zwicky proposed that some kind of “missing mass” must be present, something that added gravitational force without emitting light. He called it “dark matter.” At the time, his idea was mostly ignored. 
  Decades later, in the 1970s, American astronomer Vera Rubin provided even more compelling evidence. She was studying the rotation of spiral galaxies, expecting that stars farther from the center would orbit more slowly, just as planets farther from the sun move more slowly in our solar system. But that wasn’t what she found. The outer stars were moving just as fast as those closer in, a finding that didn’t make sense if only visible matter was involved. Her work suggested that some unseen material—something with mass—was surrounding the galaxies in large halos, exerting gravitational pull and affecting their motion. This was dark matter at work.

  A fast-paced account of a giant of twentieth century medicine, First the Patient details how David Nathan saved patients with his medical skill and rescued institutions with his visionary leadership. 
   
   
   
  The miraculous triumphs of modern medicine—antibiotics, insulin, cancer cures, longer and better lives—are the fruits of its firm grounding in science. But too often, the healing touch, the empathy of a physician for the patient, and the art of medicine, can be neglected in pursuit of breakthroughs. 
   
   
   
  David Nathan never accepted that bargain. A brilliant hematologist thoroughly steeped in scientific rigor with a research track record to prove it, Nathan was above all a humanist, a caring physician who never failed to put the patient first even when that patient was his research subject. This same humanism, along with the profound psychological insights it affords, propelled Nathan to the top ranks of academic leadership. He served first at Boston Children's Hospital, then at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute where, as president, he rescued a hospital on the brink of extinction after its doctors administered a fatal chemotherapy overdose. First the Patient is the story of a physician who left an indelible imprint on medicine through his relentless focus on the patient.
