Life's most beautiful moments are often found in the routine of the day - sweeping a floor, growing a flower in a window, laughing in a kitchen. But what if we're too busy to appreciate the joy they bring? Sometimes, young eyes are better at finding life's hidden, simple treasures and showing us all what is truly most important. In "I Want to Laugh in a Kitchen," young Patrick sees opportunities for fun in every chore, adventure at each turn. But his parents are too rushed to savor those moments with him. When Patrick notices a cardinal looking right at him and his mom and dad, his parents are finally awakened to the beauty and joy of the moment. Readers are then guided to go back through the book and find the cardinal in each illustration. In "I Want to Laugh in a Kitchen," the young teach the old to "stop, look, and listen," and embrace the bits of joy tucked in to the everyday.

From Andrew Bannister, author of Creation Machine, comes Iron Gods--another thrilling, heart-in-mouth new science fiction novel of the Spin.
In the depths of space, a beacon has awakened. And an ancient technology has begun to stir. As its memory returns, with it comes a terrifying knowledge--a grave warning about the future of the Spin that has been concealed for ten thousand years.
Ten thousand years after the events of Creation Machine, the Spin is in decline and the beleaguered slave economy of the Inside is surrounded by rebel civilizations. A group of escapees from the vast forced-labor unit known as the Hive have stolen the last of the Inside's ancient warships and woken it from an enforced trance that had lasted for millennia. And someone has destroyed a planet that didn't exist, and halfway across the Spin, something has gone wrong with the sky.
In If You Like Exercise... Chances Are You're Doing It Wrong, author Gary Bannister tells us that "the power-to-be have all but destroyed the value of muscle isolation, discredited the use of machines in general, ignored everything related to the work of Arthur Jones and replaced it with a ten-cent solution." He claims that until the field of exercise defines what is true and what is not, it will never have the impact that it could.
Muscle strength, the only factor that can produce human movement and the only factor that performs work, is disappearing from today's training regimens. This study and guide analyzes current concepts and training systems-such as Pilates, "functional" training TRX, cross-training, kettlebells, and more-and compares their benefits to those of proper strength training to provide a clear picture for everyone.
If You Like Exercise... Chances Are You're Doing It Wrong rekindles the high intensity strength-training principles of Arthur Jones, the founder of Nautilus. Bannister focuses on the concepts of intensity, form, frequency, duration, number of repetition, speed if movement, and muscle fatigue, supporting them with current research. Logically applied, proper strength training is the only system capable of satisfying all five potential benefits of exercise-an increase in strength, flexibility, cardiovascular condition, body-composition, and injury prevention.
