According to the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 50% of Americans regularly consume some sort of vitamin or mineral supplement. The National Health Federation (NHF) – the World’s oldest health-freedom organization – is focusing on a key mission during this Congressional session. NHF is working to pass a bill in Washington D.C. that amends the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) so that numerous natural health products that consumers have been safely using for decades will not be required to undergo the same kind of expensive and extensive testing that new medical drugs undergo – or else be removed from the market -- pursuant to the FDA’s Draft Guidance on new Dietary Ingredients that was introduced in 2011. Since DSHEA was enacted, U.S. consumers have enjoyed excellent access to essential nutrients. But, at the time the Act was passed, there were only 4,000 natural supplement products on the market. Now there are 30,000, which means that 87% of supplements that consumers now safely use may be adversely affected by the FDA’s new Draft Guidance and soon be required to undergo drug-like testing or else be considered unsafe by proposed federal guidelines. http://www.thenhf.com

 

Floriana Frassetto was born on December 9, 1950. The daughter of Italian emigrants to the States (Norfolk, Virginia), she studied at Alessandro Fersen's Theatre Academia in Rome from 1967 to 1969. She completed her training as actress attending a comprehensive course (mime, acrobatics, dance) at Roy Bosier's Teatro Studio. Between 1969 and November 1970, she worked in Rome in several pantomime and theatre productions. The idea of founding MUMMENSCHANZ resulted from meeting, in 1972, Andres Bossard and Bernie Schürch ... two young Swiss clowns called Before and Lost. She has since co-invented the repertoire of MUMMENSCHANZ and played in each performance. The creation of costumes, the choreography of Giancarlo Sbragia "Faust" played in the Roman amphitheatre of Taormina (Sicily), the staging of some MUMMENSCHANZ scenes for André Heller's musical Body and Soul, the artistic collaboration with Isabelle Baudet for the children musical Oliver Twist in Lausanne (Switzerland) all rank among her best individual achievements.

What a holiday! No pestilence, no slavery, no locusts, no cattle disease or atonement. No synagogue, no guilt, no mortar, and no real lesson to be absorbed and passed down to my Jewish offspring. Thank God," writes Joshua Braff, one of eighteen Jewish writers who extol, excoriate, and expand our understanding of this most merry of Jewish holidays. These essays, by Adam Langer, Tova Mirvis, Steve Almond, Eric Orner, and others, range from the comedic to the snarky, the poignant to the poetic, and includes such topics as the jealousy experienced in December when the rest of America is celebrating Christmas (we never get to join in the reindeer games!); the problem parents have dampening their children's desire for more presents (call it Greedikah!); and the weight gain associated with eating 432 latkes in eight nights (dayenu, enough!). Whether your Chanukahs were spent singing "I have a Little Dreidel" or playing the "Maoz Tzur" on the piano, whether your family tradition included a Christmas tree or a Chanukah bush, whether the fights among your siblings over who would light the menorah candles rivaled the battles of the Maccabees, or even if you haven't a clue who the Maccabees were, this little book proves there are as many ways to celebrate Chanukah as there are ways to spell it.

Barry Ferguson is the author of 7 books including his latest release, the highly controversial “Warning! Your Healthy Diet May Be Killing You” which is breaking a lot of long-held beliefs regarding what is and what isn’t considered healthy food. Determined to get to the root of what was causing his illness after a lifetime of healthy eating, Barry discovered the healthy foods he was eating were actually making him very sick. After seeing millions of Americans struggle with dieting and health issues he realized he needed to get the truth about what’s in our food and why the FDA and the giant food corporations were sabotaging our health. After the defeat of California’s Prop 37 (the food labeling law regarding GMO’s), Barry has made it his fight to get the word out about how and why our food is being poisoned. Monsanto and the FDA are on a course to control all aspects of our food supply and “Warning! Your Healthy Diet May Be Killing You” exposes all the deadly secrets and shows just how far we have fallen from eating healthy food. www.YourHealthyDietIsKillingYou.com

What If the World Was Vegan? The true building blocks of cuisines across the planet are the spices, herbs, and grains—from basmati rice to buckwheat, coconut to caraway seeds. Apply those flavors to vegan staples such as seitan, or tofu and even straight-up vegetables, and the possibilities? If not endless, pretty darned expansive. So what if the world was vegan? Your own cooking is the answer to that question; fire up the stove and make a green curry, simmer a seitan date tagine stew, or hold a freshly made corn tortilla piled high with chile-braised jackfruit in your hand. Chart your course in the great, growing map of vegan food history. Award-winning chef, author of Veganomicon, and author of Viva Vegan Terry Hope Romero continues the vegan food revolution with more than 300 bold, delicious recipes based on international favorites. With chapters devoted to essential basics such as Spice Blends; The Three Protein Amigos; and Pickles, Chutneys & Saucier Sauces, you can make everything from salads to curries, dumplings and desserts. Vegan Eats World will help you map your way through a culinary world tour, whether you want to create a piergoi party or Thai feast, easy Indian chaat lunch or Your International House of Dinner Crepes.

A Step-by-Step Program to Reduce Anger, Rage, Negativity, Violence, and Depression in Your Life If you get angry out of the blue, experience road rage, often blow off steam at your kids, get depressed for no apparent reason, or otherwise act out of control, then you need to read and heed this book. Anger is not just an emotion - it's a way of life based on all the things you eat, think, and do. Specific biological, nutritional, and psychological states feed anger. So if you don't change your lifestyle and cure your problem, you're headed for degenerative diseases that increase with age - things like diabetes, cancer, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, obesity, and addiction. In her book, author Kathleen O'Bannon, C.N.C., uses her accumulated wealth of knowledge about lifestyle-based conditions to provide a series of tests to help you diagnose what's causing your anger problem. She then guides you through a series of lifestyle changes necessary to cure it. For instance, spikes in your blood sugar after you eat a candy bar instead of a nutritious lunch cause anger attacks, as do yeast infections, a lack of B vitamins, and excess stress. Not only does O'Bannon describe the many factors that contribute to and promote anger, she provides diets, exercises, and stress management - a complete Anger Cure program - based on nearly thirty years of lifestyle counseling. Being angry is a choice you make when you allow your body to control you instead of you controlling your body. The goal of The Anger Cure is to help you learn how to become more balanced and anger-free. Are you ready to take control of your life? The choice is yours. www.healthaliveproducts.com

Why can’t we solve our problems anymore? Why do threats such as the Gulf oil spill, worldwide recession, terrorism, and global warming suddenly seem unstoppable? Are there limits to the kinds of problems humans can solve? Rebecca Costa confronts- and offers a solution to-these questions in her highly anticipated and game-changing book, The Watchman’s Rattle. Costa pulls headline for today’s news to demonstrate how accelerating complexity quickly outpaces that rate at which the human brain can develop new capabilities. With compelling evidenced based on research in the rise and fall of Mayan, Khmer, and Roman empires, Costa shows how t ht tendency to find a quick solutions- leads to frightening long term consequence: Society’s ability to solve its most challenging, intractable problems becomes gridlocked, progress slows, and collapse ensues. A provocative new voice in the tradition of thought leaders Thomas Friedman, Jared Diamond and Malcolm Gladwell, Costa reveals how we can reverse the downward spiral. Part history, part social science, part biology, The Watchman’s Rattle is sure to provoke, engage and incite change.

 

Whether they're served with foods like tacos or mashed up into classic guacamole, avocados are a long-time favorite, which makes it hard to believe a major publisher has never published a book on the subject. Blogger Gaby Dalkin of What's Gaby Cooking (www.whatsgabycooking.com ) can't get enough of avocados, and so she's the perfect person to write this book -- no stone is left unturned. Avocados for breakfast? Fans will love the Avocado and Chorizo Breakfast Hash. Of course avocado is great with meat and fish, such as in Carnitas with Chipotle Guacamole and Pan Seared Salmon with Avocado Pepper Relish. This is bold food for people who love a little kick in their cooking. And yes, there are even desserts, such as the Avacado Chocolate Chip Cookies. In addition to primers about buying and storing avocados, there are gorgeous photos throughout by popular photographer and blogger Matt Armendariz (www.mattbites.com), all in a gifty, affordable package lending the book well to cross-merchandising and summertime-themed displays in a variety of retailers.

 

On Halloween morning in 1999, Mabel Greineder was savagely murdered along a wooded trail in the well-heeled community of Wellesley, Massachusetts. As the shock following the brutal killing slowly subsided, the community was further shaken when the focus of the investigation turned to her husband, Dirk Greineder, a prominent physician and family man who was soon revealed to be leading a secret double life involving prostitutes, pornography, and trysts solicited through the Internet. A Murder in Wellesley takes the reader far beyond the headlines and national news coverage spawned by "May" Greineder's killing and tells the untold story of the meticulous investigation led by Marty Foley, the lead State Police detective on the case, from the morning of the murder through Dirk Greineder's ultimate conviction.

Roddy Dolan, a successful suburban surgeon, long ago left behind his past--one that nearly landed him in jail at 17. When he's approached by an old friend about becoming a silent partner in a Manhattan steakhouse, he's understandably wary. So he consults with his lifelong blood brother, Danny Burns. Danny's convinced this "vanity project" is the perfect trophy to illustrate how far they've traveled. Certain he's buried his checkered past, Roddy joins in this venture with serious reservations. Danny is quickly sucked into the high-energy glitz of the restaurant, but Roddy is suspicious. Amidst the glitter of New York's nightlife, amongst Mafia honchos and Russian thugs, events spin out of control and the lives Roddy and Danny knew are over. Hidden shady dealings drag them and their families into life-threatening terrain. Struggling with a monster he thought he'd buried, Roddy must make momentous choices, and none are good. But he has a daring plan . . .

 

Mark Anthony is no ordinary lawyer. In his distinguished career, the Oxford-educated attorney has tried cases involving rapists, child molesters, and mass murderers. He’s also licensed to appear before the Supreme Court. What separates him from other accomplished professionals in his field, however, is that he is a self-proclaimed psychic who communicates with the dead. It’s easy to imagine how that sits with some of his colleagues. “If I have a mission in life,” says the author who appears regularly on radio and TV as both a legal and paranormal commentator, “it’s to use my abilities to help heal people suffering from the loss of loved ones.” The first part of Mark’s “Ivy League” tour is scheduled for November 27 through 30, during which time he will be at Harvard Coop and Brown University Bookstore giving readings and signing copies of his new book Never Letting Go. He will be available for media interviews during this time.

As a dog-loving society, we often tend to attribute human characteristics to man’s best friend. Pets are treated as members of the family. We buy them clothing and jewelry. And when stories of animal abuse arise in the news, we are often just as outraged – sometimes even more outraged– than when we learn of people being abused. “But dogs are not people – they don’t think like people, they don’t react to certain stimuli like people, they don’t use their senses in the same way as people do,” says Melissa Berryman, a dog behaviorist, author of “People Training for Good Dogs” www.ptfgd.com , and founder of the nonprofit preventive training organization, Dog Owner Education and Community Safety Council. “When dogs don’t react the way people would, for instance, if a dog snaps at a child trying to hug it, society says the dog is bad,”Berryman says. “The dog is not bad! It’s simply responding to what it perceives to be dominating behavior.”

 

The economy has changed, and we may need to look backward in order to move forward, a researcher says. “We have become so accustomed to the fruits of our forefathers’ labor that many of us have forgotten just how tough they had it,” says Sigrid Wilshinsky, author of “My Life in America Before, During and After the Civil War” (www.amazon.com ). “But 150 years ago, Americans succeeded by being resilient, resourceful and tenacious about finding work they could do.” Wilshinsky translated dozens of letters written by Louis Hensel, a mid-1800s German immigrant, to his German granddaughter, Emma. They’re full of lessons for contemporary Americans, immigrant and non-immigrant alike. “Reading them is like peeking through a rip in the curtain of history and experiencing life during that time,” Wilshinsky says. Steady work was not a given for an immigrant just off the boat, and there was no Social Security or other safety nets back then, she says. People relied on their friends and their friends’ friends – social networks replicated today online.

Have you ever thought about the fact that a craftsman has more and better tools to solve challenges on the job than the leader of a business or organization does? Leadership “tools” are usually defined as computers, spreadsheets, data, and even experience, but in reality, leaders need thinking tools that are hard to come by, so they find themselves hunting and pecking for answers in books, at seminars, through on-the-job training programs, from mentors, and at business schools, and still, they’re left with gaps. Surely, most leaders are good at what they do, but the daily challenges of their jobs, like accelerating growth, increasing productivity, driving innovation, doing more with less, and balancing work with life don’t come with some sort of leadership toolkit...until now. In Paid to Think, international consultant David Goldsmith presents his groundbreaking approach to leadership and management based on research revealing the twelve specific activities that all leaders perform on a daily basis, and he provides you with each activity’s accompanying tools and instructions proven to boost your performance and that of your entire organization.

 

The holiday season is upon us and for many that means more events, parties, and socializing with relatives, friends, and co-workers. While most of us just think about the fun and good times these moments bring, the savvier among us realize that this time of the year can either be ripe with opportunities to successfully connect with others or be a landmine of awkward, tense, or potentially-damaging interactions and conversations. So how does one prepare to handle a nosy relative or rude co-worker at this year’s holiday dinners and gatherings? How do you set limits with others on what you find acceptable topics of conversation or behavior during this festive season while maintaining a sense of composure and professionalism? How do you keep yourself from ruining relationships with friends, family and co-workers as the music plays, drinks flow, and inhibitions decline? If you ask Kevin McCarney, a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur, restaurant chain owner, and author of THE SECRETS OF SUCCESSFUL COMMUNICATION, it’s all about learning to control our impulses, words, and messaging in order to create positive results for ourselves.

 

Benjamin Franklin once wished it were possible...to invent a method of embalming drowned persons in such a manner that they [could] be recalled to life at any period, however distant; for, having a very ardent desire to see and observe the state of America a hundred years hence, I should prefer to any ordinary death [that of] being immersed in a cask of Madeira wine, with a few friends, till the [proper] time, to be then recalled to life by the solar warmth of my dear country. Poor Richard's Lament grants Franklin his wish. Benjamin Franklin has been confined to a private apartment in the Plantation of the Unrepentant for the past two-plus centuries, and has recently received notice that his petition for final processing has at last been approved. In the company of two Intermediaries, Ben appears before a panel of examiners in the Celestial Court of Petitions to make his case. His examiners are three former arch-adversaries: John Adams, Alexander Wedderburn, and Reverend William Smith. .

The holidays are here... ...so does that mean we all MUST OVER-EAT? As we discuss in our story called “PREVENT A PIG-OUT” that begins on page 96 of the latest issue of MEN’S HEALTH... ...just a little planning can make it lots easier to CONTROL what you eat, so you don’t REGRET it all the next day.

Games are playing a crucial role in many successful businesses—not just in PR and marketing, but as a model for designing business systems and workflows. In this book, Michael Hugos provides compelling case studies that demonstrate how game mechanics enable companies to respond quickly to challenges in today’s real-time economy. It’s not about giving workers a smiley face for producing more widgets. You’ll discover how game mechanics—particularly popular multiplayer video games—provide field-tested best practices for engaging workers in creative and complex activities. With games, your company can shift from an outmoded top-down hierarchy to an agile network structure that promotes coordination over control. • Discover why industrial age business structures from the 20th century no longer work • Design real-time business collaboration systems, using massively multiplayer online game concepts • Make your in-house systems more agile with technologies such as social media, mobile devices, and cloud computing • Understand game dynamics: goals, rules, real-time feedback, and voluntary participation • Apply virtual worlds and 3-D animation to business intelligence and data analytics applications

“If the United States ever experiences an attempt at a coup to overthrow the government, it will come from the CIA. The agency represents a tremendous power and total unaccountability to anyone.” – John F. Kennedy . The quote was highly prescient to the Kennedy assassination, says Jack Duffy, author of “The Man from 2063” (www.themanfrom2063.com ), a novel based on historical facts that point to CIA, mafia and anti-Castro Cuban involvement in the Nov. 22, 1963 assassination. “I don’t believe in conspiracy theories about the moon landing or 9/11,” says Duffy, a trial lawyer in Fort Worth, Texas. “The more I’ve learned since the President Kennedy’s death, the less the Oswald theory makes sense.” During his 40 years of research, he has interviewed two surgeons who studied Kennedy’s skull immediately after the shooting, Lee Harvey Oswald’s widow, Marina, and several eyewitnesses who were at Dealey Plaza in Dallas, among countless others. “There are just too many coincidences, and too much evidence that contradicts the theory that Oswald acted alone,” he says.

 

After Gen. David Petraeus resigned as CIA chief, citing his infidelity, many in the media protested. Why should the personal life of an excellent leader force him to step down from public service? The short answer is because a leader's character shapes his organization's character. Lawyer, author and business ethicist David Gebler has researched and written extensively on the topic of corporate scandals. Unethical behavior, he says, has an insidious ripple effect throughout a leader's organization--no matter how beloved he is. David Gebler is the founder and president of the Skout Group, a consultancy that helps companies evaluate the cost-effectiveness and scandal-potential of their corporate cultures. He's a lawyer specializing in business ethics, and author of The 3 Power Values: How Commitment, Integrity, and Transparency Clear the Roadblocks to Performance

In it he describes his journey from using pharmaceutical drugs to actively listening to his patients and treating the root cause of their symptoms through natural approaches. “For an acute illness, such as strep throat or a sinus infection, the drug approach may be appropriate. However, few patients with chronic ailments ever really get well by taking drugs. How can they? Chronic illness and disease are not caused by deficiencies of prescription drugs.” www.hotzehwc.com

 

As Americans begin preparing their Thanksgiving feasts, they’re likely to hear all kinds of nutrition claims related to traditional holiday foods. For example, is white turkey meat better for you than dark? Do cranberries really prevent urinary tract infections? Are sweet potatoes more nutritious than white potatoes? Robert J. Davis, Ph.D., aka The Healthy Skeptic and author of Coffee Is Good For You, cuts through the hype to answer common questions such as these, separating myths from facts about diet and nutrition. Debunking conventional wisdom about many Thanksgiving foods, Dr. Davis can share some surprising food facts with your audience, including: • Turkey really doesn’t make you sleepy. • Canned pumpkin is more nutritious than fresh. • “Multigrain” rolls aren’t necessarily more healthful. • Red wine may not be better for you than a beer or shot of Jack Daniels • Coffee may be more healthful than tea. Davis is an award-winning health journalist whose work has appeared on CNN, PBS, WebMD, and in The Wall Street Journal. He is founder and editor-in-chief of Everwell.com and an adjunct professor at Emory University's Rollins School of Public Health. In addition, he is the author of The Healthy Skeptic: Cutting Through the Hype About Your Health and hostsa series of widely syndicated “Healthy Skeptic” video segments that examine the science behind popular health claims.

A few years ago, a debate between atheists and religious believers spilled out from the halls of academia and the pews of America’s churches and into the public spotlight. A crop of atheist manifestos led the charge, surmounting and holding the tops of the nonfiction bestseller lists. This offensive brought on an outpouring of religious rebuttals. As both sides exchanged spirited volleys, accusations were leveled; myths, stereotypes, and strawmen arguments were perpetuated; and bitter hostility filled the air. Today many of these misconceptions and myths linger on, along with the generally acrimonious spirit of the debate.In America’s Blessings, distinguished researcher Rodney Stark seeks to clear the air of this hostility and debunk many of the debate’s most widely perpetuated misconceptions by drawing from an expansive pool of sociological findings. Looking at the measurable effects of religious faith and practice on American society, Stark rises above the fray and focuses exclusively on facts. His findings may surprise many, atheists and believers alike. Starting with a historical overview, Stark traces America’s religious roots from the founding of the country up through the present day, showing that religiosity in America has never been consistent, static, or monolithic.

 

Corporate capitalism has ravaged the planet the same way HIV ravages the human body, triggering a critical mass of cascading environmental, economic, social, and political crises. Economic and climate instability, collapsing ecosystems, peak fossil fuels, devastating resource wars—if the Earth were a patient, her condition would be critical. Life Rules offers a comprehensive analysis of our present circumstances, combined with a holistic treatment protocol for restoring health to vulnerable human and natural communities. Predicting that Life will last, but if we don't make some fundamental changes, life as we know it—and a lot of us—won't, Life Rules identifies natural laws that have allowed non-human communities to thrive and prosper for several billion years. This sobering yet essentially optimistic manifesto is required reading for anyone concerned about our ability to live within Earth's means. A powerful tool for community transition and cultural transformation, Life Rules offers a solution to our global challenges that is at once authentically hopeful, deeply inspiring, and profoundly liberating. Ellen LaConte is acting director of the EarthWalk Alliance, a contributing editor to Green Horizon Magazine and The Ecozoic, a frequent talk show guest, and publisher of the Starting Point online newsletter.

 

Have you ever been led by someone who cared for you like family, and dared you to achieve more than you ever thought possible for yourself, your organization, and even society? Award-winning author of Hostage at the Table, George Kohlrieser, along with his co-authors Susan Goldsworthy and Duncan Coombe, explain how becoming a secure base leader releases extraordinary potential in others. Part of the Warren Bennis leadership series Care to Dare shows you how to become a Secure Base Leader so that you release your followers from the fears that get in the way of their performance. It shows you how you can unleash astonishing potential by building the trust, delivering the change, and inspiring the focus that underpins sustainable high performance. From extensive interviews with executives from all over the world, as well as from surveys with more than a thousand executives, the book reveals the nine characteristics that Secure Base Leaders display on a daily basis. The research shows that a primary difference between a successful leader and a failed leader is the presence or absence of secure bases in his or her life. Care to Dare will take you on a journey where you will discover your own secure bases, past and present, and determine how you can be a secure base for other people in your life at work and at home.
