Wounded Warriors and servicemen are also welcome. The purpose of this book is to lead by being an example to others. I survived two life threatening illnesses and moved forward to achieve and fulfill lifelong goals and refused to settle for a life of quiet mediocrity! Motivation is the key and will propel one to move forward by reaching beyond many of life's difficult challenges and is paramount if one desires to fulfill their dreams regardless of the odds and live for a purpose. This book will demonstrate by using real life situations and visual images of what motivation can look like when faced with extreme adversity. This is very motivational and inspirational in nature and will send a positive message to all ages and backgrounds by giving a message of hope. I survived stage one breast cancer while training to compete in bodybuilding and fulfilled a lifelong dream against what many considered to be impossible odds! Motivation fueled by unstoppable determination enabled me to compete and place in the NPC after surviving two life threatening illnesses. My desire is to pass a dose of motivation onto others so they can achieve a better outlook and quality of life and pass this benefit onto their families.

Book Synopsis Genetic Control of Malaria and Dengue by : Zach N. Adelman
Download or read book Genetic Control of Malaria and Dengue written by Zach N. Adelman and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic Control of Malaria and Dengue focuses on the knowledge, technology, regulation and ethics of using genetically modified mosquitoes to interrupt the transmission of important vector-borne diseases including Malaria. It contains coverage of the current state of knowledge of vector-borne diseases and how they are currently controlled; vaccine, drug and insecticide development; various strategies for altering the genome of mosquitoes in beneficial ways; and the regulatory, ethical and social environment concerning these strategies. For more than five decades, the prospect of using genetically-modified mosquitoes to control vector-borne disease transmission has been a purely hypothetical scenario. We simply did not have the technology or basic knowledge to be able to do it. With the explosion of field trials and potential interventions in development, Genetic Control of Malaria and Dengue provides a comprehensive overview of research in genetics, microbiology, virology, and ecology involved in the development and implementation of genetic modification programs for virus and disease control. This book is meant to provide a practical guide to researchers, regulators and the general public about how this technology actually works, how it can be improved, and what is still unknown. - Includes coverage of vectorial capacity, critical to understanding vector-borne disease transmission - Provides a summary of the concepts of both population suppression and population replacement - Contains pivotal coverage of ethical and ecological ramifications of genetics-based control strategies

Download or read book Do You! written by Russell Simmons and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since rising out of the New York City streets over 25 years ago, Russell Simmons has helped create such groundbreaking ventures as Def Jam Records, Phat Farm and Def Comedy Jam, becoming known the world over as "The CEO of Hip Hop." He credits his success to his belief in a set of 12 laws, which he shares in this book. His path towards success can be followed by anyone struggling to realize their dreams. Indeed, those solely looking to build up their bank accounts at the expense of personal integrity should look elsewhere. Blending business insight and spiritual inspiration, Russell believes that all success, professional or personal, comes from a connection with your higher self, and that it's impossible to receive any sort of lasting success from the world without giving something of lasting value to the world first: being a mentor and philanthropist is fundamental to success.--From publisher description.
Book Synopsis It's Hard to Talk about Yourself by : Natalia Ginzburg

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ginzburg's marriage to Leone Ginzburg, who met his death at the hands of the Nazis for his anti-fascist activities, and her work for the Einaudi publishing house placed her squarely in the center of Italian political and cultural life. But whether writing about the Turin of her childhood, the Abruzzi countryside where her family was interned during World War II, or contemporary Rome, Ginzburg never shied away from the traumas of history - even if she approached them only indirectly, through the mundane details and catastrophes of personal life."--Jacket.
Book Synopsis Still Black, Still Strong by : Dhoruba Bin Wahad
Download or read book Still Black, Still Strong written by Dhoruba Bin Wahad and published by Semiotext(e). This book was released on 1993 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential document of the Black Panther Party written by three leading thinkers and party activists who were jailed following the FBI'S 1969 mandate to destroy the organization "by any means possible." Still Black, Still Strong is partly based upon the 1989 videotape Framing The Panthers by producers Chris Bratton and Annie Goldson. It recounts the stories of Dhoruba Bin Wahad, Mumia Abu-Jamal and Assata Shakur, all of whom were arrested and jailed during the COINTELPRO probe of the Black Panther Party. Dhoruba Bin Wahad, who organized chapters of the Black Panther Party in New York and along the Estern Seaboard and worked with tenants in Harlem and on drug rehabilitation in the Bronx, was accused of murdering two officers while still in his teens and imprisoned for 19 years. He always maintained his innocence and won his freedom by forcing the FBI to release thousands of classified documents proving that he had been framed. The justice department eventually rescinded Bin Wahad’s conviction and he was released in 1990, seven months after the documentary premiered. Mumia Abu-Jamal, a journalist who headed the Black Panther free breakfast program for inner-city school children in Philadelphia, was also accused of the murder of an officer and sent on death-row, where he still is today. Assata Shakur was a college educated social worker in her twenties when she was accused of shooting a cop, then arrested and tortured and denied medical treatment. Her interview was conducted in Cuba where she has been exiled since her escape from a New Jersey women's prison in 1975. Bin Wahad, Shakur and Abu-Jamal offer a little-known history and an incisive analysis of the Black Panthers' original goals, which the U.S. Government has tried to distort and suppress. As one confidential, 1969, memo to J. Edgar Hoover put it, "The Negro youth and moderates must be made to understand that if they succumb to revolutionary teaching, they will be dead revolutionaries."
