  A neurotic party girl's coming-of-age memoir about learning to live before getting ready to die.Tara has it pretty good: a nice job, a writing career, a forgiving boyfriend. She should be happy. Yet Tara can't stay sober. She's terrible at monogamy. Even her psychiatrist grows sick of her and stops returning her calls. She spends most of her time putting out social fires, barely pulling things off, and feeling sick and tired.Then, in the autumn following her twenty-seventh birthday, an abnormal lump discovered in her left breast serves as the catalyst for a journey of rigorous self-questioning. Waiting on a diagnosis, she begins an intellectual assessment of her life, desperate to justify a short existence full of dumb choices. Armed with her philosophy degree and angry determination, she attacks each issue in her life as the days creep by and winds up writing a searingly honest memoir about learning to live before getting ready to die.

  From the adorable to the absurd, these playful paintings are a penguin lover’s delight. 
   
  Penguins hate zombies. They also hate serpents, bad haircuts, sock monkeys, leprechauns, Halloween, oil rigs, vampire penguins, and mermaids. They really hate clowns, but they really like capes, balloons, and free vacations. 
   
  This quirky collection reveals the discriminating tastes of these adorable flightless Antarctic birds who encounter odd foes (snow sharks, beavers, cowboys, samurai . . .), but still manage to enjoy the little things in life. With wit, humor, and the occasional alien invasion, Greg Stones’s paintings capture the playfully absurd life of penguins. 
   
  Praise for Greg Stones 
   
  “Stones’s panels have a cool way of collectively turning a grin into a chuckle (and perhaps, dare it be said, into a hearty guffaw).” —Publishers Weekly

  Are you wondering what the potential applicability the cannabinoid CBG has to dermatological disorders?  
  Are you looking for a short narrative review that won’t break the bank that has also been co-written by someone who holds a Ph.D. in medicine and pharmacology? 
  Maybe you have already started incorporating CBD into your topical products and wondered if its big brother, the lesser-known cannabinoid, CBG, is going to be even more effective in treating chronic skin issues?  
  Regardless of why you are here, you won’t be disappointed.  
  We have conducted a detailed literature search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases using the following keywords, including synonyms, and all the possible combinations of them; cannabinoids, skin disorder, cannabigerol, cutaneous disorder.  
  Relevant studies that reported a mechanism of action or a dermatological therapeutic effect of CBG, were included in this review. The 35 medical studies we reviewed are contained at the end of this paper so you can go off and study them in more detail if required. 
  As someone who co-founded Scotland’s first cannabis cosmetics manufacturing specialist, Cannafull, and CBD beauty brand, Ascend, I know first-hand what it is like to be ahead of the curve. I truly hope you find this short paper useful in kick-starting discussions on how CBG will eclipse CBD’s market-disrupting footsteps in monumental fashion.  
  The big question is, will you embrace it early, or be left behind... 
  “There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.” — Niccolo Machiavelli

  When the struggle to save oil-soaked birds and restore blackened beaches left him feeling frustrated and helpless, John Francis decided to take a more fundamental and personal stand: he stopped using all forms of motorized transportation. Soon after embarking on this quest that would span two decades and two continents, the young man took a vow of silence that endured for seventeen years. It began as a silent environmental protest, but as a young African-American man, walking across the country in the early 1970s, his idea of "the environment" expanded beyond concern about pollution and loss of habitat to include how we humans treat each other and how we can better communicate and work together to benefit the earth. Through his silence and walking, he learned to listen and, along the way, earned college and graduate degrees in science and environmental studies. The United Nations appointed him goodwill ambassador to the world's grassroots communities and the U.S. government recruited him to help address the Exxon Valdez disaster. Was he crazy? How did he live and earn all those degrees without talking? An amazing human-interest story with a vital message, Planetwalker is also a deeply personal and engaging coming-of-age odyssey.

  As Medea Benjamin says, "Patriotism is holding your nation to the highest standards possible. But we also have to evolve as human beings to a global consciousness." When we see the world from the point of view of these two visions, our own evolution becomes more attainable.
