Synopsis

Less than an hour by train from New York City...Croton Point Park encapsulates the history, beauty and promise of the Hudson Valley. The Westchester County Park encompasses miles of Hudson River shoreline with astonishing views and remnants of the region's past. Incredible shell mounds shed light on the Native peoples who inhabited the area generations prior to European colonization. The remains of the first commercial vineyards in the Northeast are just steps away from historic brickyards that helped build Manhattan. The Point served as a dumping ground for years until local efforts restored the park into a model of environmental conservation. Today, bald eagles have returned to nest alongside visitors exploring remarkable landmarks, sailing the waters of the Hudson or enjoying a scenic picnic. Authors Scott Craven and Caroline Ranald Curvan present Westchester's crown jewel, Croton Point Park.

    Lord Ganesh is the son of Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva. He is the first one to get worshipped before worshipping any other god. We can say in short that there is no Hindu who doesn't perform Lord Ganesh’s worship. In Ramayana Lord Rama had worshipped Lord Ganesh. 
    In Mahabharata Lord Krishna had also worshipped Lord Ganesh. They have become the role models to the whole world. Before the beginning of any work it is common to worship Lord Ganesh. There are many Holy hymns on Lord Ganesh. Lord Ganesh’s favorite food is modak. 
    He gets pleased if we offer Durva grass to him. He also loves red Hibiscus flower. He is called the vighnaharta because he wards off all the obstacles in our life. He is also called vighnaraja. There are infinite names to Lord Ganesh which we cannot explain. He ties a snake around his waist. 
    The vehicle of Lord Ganesh is mouse in Hindu culture. Lord Ganesh is worshipped all over India. His miracles have been described in all of the 18 Puranas. There are many forms of Lord Ganesh. 
    He has got two wives one is riddhi and the other is siddhi.Lord Ganesh has got 32 forms of incarnations. The modak which you offer to Lord Ganesh will give you good results. Lord Ganesh does not bias among his devotees. He is specially worshipped on sankashti days. On Ganesh Chaturthi people fast and perform vrath.On this day it is forbidden to see Chandra the moon.

    Menopause: so many symptoms, so few remedies, so many years, so few heads-ups.  
    In Steamy, you’ll find forty-five of the ever-expanding list of things people can encounter when going through The Change, including challenges (such as #4 Night Sweats and #21 Anxiety) and boons (such as #41 Individuation and #45 Fewer Shits). In this raucous memoir, Susan Holbrook opens up an experience still constrained by cultural silences and myths. Steamy is honest, vulnerable, gross, and might just be the funniest book you’ve ever read about menopause, or anything else (see #37 Bloating). If, at a certain stage of life, you find yourself sucker-punched by a sweaty fistful of symptoms you can’t believe no one told you about, Steamy is for you – and for all the other hot-and-bothereds out there.

    Simplicity is often misunderstood as a lack of sophistication or depth. In truth, simplicity is about intentionality, clarity, and focus. It's not about stripping life down to the barest essentials but about discerning what truly matters and eliminating distractions. The art of simplifying is a practice that allows us to shift our energy from the constant demands of modern life to what brings us true fulfillment. 
    The journey toward simplification begins with the recognition that not everything in our lives needs to be kept or held onto. We live in an age of excess—excess information, excess material possessions, and excess commitments—that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. When we declutter our lives, we free up space for what truly matters: deeper connections, meaningful work, and moments of peace. By embracing simplicity, we allow ourselves to be more present and engaged in each aspect of our daily lives. 
    In simplifying, we are also clearing the mental space necessary to make conscious choices. This process begins with letting go of the unnecessary, which can take many forms. This might involve removing items from your physical space, choosing to disconnect from digital distractions, or reevaluating relationships and commitments that no longer align with your values. The key to simplification is not to eliminate everything but to approach each area of life with discernment, asking whether it serves a purpose or brings joy.
