Описание: The New York Times bestselling book coauthored by the Nobel Prize winner who discovered telomerase and telomeres' role in the aging process and the health psychologist who has done original research into how specific lifestyle and psychological habits can protect telomeres, slowing disease and improving life. Have you wondered why some sixty-year-olds look and feel like forty-year-olds and why some forty-year-olds look and feel like sixty-year-olds? While many factors contribute to aging and illness, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn discovered a biological indicator called telomerase, the enzyme that replenishes telomeres, which protect our genetic heritage. Dr. Blackburn and Dr. Elissa Epel's research shows that the length and health of one's telomeres are a biological underpinning of the long-hypothesized mind-body connection. They and other scientists have found that changes we can make to our daily habits can protect our telomeres and increase our health spans (the number of years we remain healthy, active, and disease-free). The Telemere Effect reveals how Blackburn and Epel's findings, together with research from colleagues around the world, cumulatively show that sleep quality, exercise, aspects of diet, and even certain chemicals profoundly affect our telomeres, and that chronic stress, negative thoughts, strained relationships, and even the wrong neighborhoods can eat away at them. Drawing from this scientific body of knowledge, they share lists of foods and suggest amounts and types of exercise that are healthy for our telomeres, mind tricks you can use to protect yourself from stress, and information about how to protect your children against developing shorter telomeres, from pregnancy through adolescence. And they describe how we can improve our health spans at the community level, with neighborhoods characterized by trust, green spaces, and safe streets. The Telemere Effect will make you reassess how you live your life on a day-to-day basis. It is the first book to explain how we age at a cellular level and how we can make simple changes to keep our chromosomes and cells healthy, allowing us to stay disease-free longer and live more vital and meaningful lives.

Описание: Abstract: A novel approach to the numerical analysis of the dynamic system of two spiraling black holes is developed using the initial value formalism of general relativity. As the two black holes spiral in on each other they will lose energy and angular momentum in the form of gravitational radiation. When the amplitude of this gravitational radiation is small enough, the space-time for the two orbiting black holes can be approximated by a geometry which is unchanging as seen by an observer in a frame of reference co-rotating with the two black holes. Then a time-like Killing vector field is assumed to exist over a finite region of the space-time geometry. A variational principle is found for the total mass of the binary system based on the Hamiltonian of general relativity and is used to study the dynamics and stability of the close orbits. The emission of gravitational waves within the context of the quadrupole moment approximation is used to determine the secular evolution of the system. For black holes of equal mass, approximately 3% of the their initial mass, as deter- mined when the two black holes are at rest at large separations, is emitted as gravitational radiation with frequencies less than the quadrupole normal mode frequency of the final coalesced Kerr black hole.

Описание: In April 2010, President Obama launched the Americas Great Outdoors Initiative, calling on the Secretaries of the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Chair of the White House Council on Environmental Quality to develop a 21st-century conservation agenda that will protect Americas natural and cultural resources, and connect people to the outdoors through jobs, education, recreation, and service. Conservation of our natural, cultural and historic resources is an American tradition, shaping who we are as a nation. This book highlights this Administrations work to date under the Americas Great Outdoors (AGO) initiative.

Описание: Julia Blackburn has always collected things that hold stories about the past, especially the very distant past; mammoth bones, little shells that happen to be two million years old, a flint shaped as a weapon long ago. Shortly after her husband's death, Blackburn became fascinated with Doggerland, the stretch of land that once connected Great Britain to Continental Europe but is now subsumed by the North Sea. She was driven to explore the lives of the people who lived there--studying its fossil record, as well as human artifacts that have been unearthed near the area. In Time Song, Blackburn brings us along on her journey to discover what Doggerland left behind, introducing us to the paleontologists, archaeologists, fishermen, and fellow Doggerland enthusiasts she meets along the way. She sees the footprints of early humans fossilized in the soft mud of an estuary alongside the scattered pockmarks made by rain falling eight thousand years ago. She visits a cave where the remnants of a Neanderthal meal have turned to stone. In Denmark she sits beside Tollund Man, who seems to be about to wake from a dream, even though he had lain in a peat bog since the start of the Iron Age. As Doggerland begins to come into focus, what emerges is a profound meditation on time, a sense of infinity as going backward and an intimation of the immensity of everything that has already passed through its time on earth and disappeared.

Everyone has had experiences that left them wishing they had trusted their instincts more. Perhaps they could have avoided a bad consequence, simply by speaking up at the right time.
Trust Your Instincts is a work of love created by Brenda and Natalie Blackburn, a mother-daughter team. This series of books is a way to open conversations with small children, to teach them to speak up for themselves when that small voice inside their head says 'something just doesn't feel right'.
It is a proactive way to empower children, to tell them that it is always okay to talk about how they feel. It encourages thought, questions and answers, without fear. It helps parents assure their children that they are safe, loved, and that they (and other caring grownups) are always willing to listen and help.
Author Brenda McCook-Blackburn began as an educator teaching Kindergarten. Later, as research analyst and Professor of Sociology at a California State University, her research showed that the major threat to children's safety comes from people they know.
This was driven home one afternoon during one of Brenda's sociology lectures on Marriage and Family. She revealed staggering statistics showing the rise of abuse. Some students cried when they heard that nearly 50% of children experience some sort of abuse in their lifetime. They realized that, if not to them, abuse may have happened to the person next to them. The floodgates opened and their stories poured out. Years later, some of these very students became proponents for children's rights and safety.
One young military vet remained after class to express his thanks. His stepfather, he said, sexually abused him when he was small. He had carried this shame his entire life. That first step in sharing helped lift his darkness. He's now a father with three beautiful children and helped come up with the idea of a children's series on trusting your inner voice.
With Trust Your Instincts Brenda hopes to drive away this harmful secrecy.
Natalie Blackburn works with groups to protect women and children, as well as with lawmakers and the FBI. She also provides women with guidance on how to protect their children. Many women feel they have no one to go to for help, for themselves or their children. This is why abuse continues and is growing. We must help our children feel secure and loved, and tell them their voices matter. That little voice in their heads is saying, "Be brave. Speak up. Someone who cares will listen and believe you."
Illustrator Kim Wilson Brandt was able to capture the youthful fun in being a child with illustrations that capture joy, sadness, and family warmth at the same time. Our heroine, Candy Cricket, faces situations that get children to think about what Candy needs to do to help. It is easier for children to think through these problems when they are talking about Candy and her family: Real life situations, but in a world of bugs; perfect for young children.
All profits from these books will be donated to groups and individuals fighting to create and enforce laws to protect the safety and innocence of children. See our site at http: //www.outskirtspress.com/trustyourinstincts.
