Book Synopsis The Vintage Years by : Francine Toder
Download or read book The Vintage Years written by Francine Toder and published by Aziri. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vintage Years refers to this time in life, when according to Francine Toder, Ph.D. whose research into the factors that increase brain, body and psychological fitness, tells us that our health and our lives can be supercharged through the fine arts. Recent discoveries in neuroscience confirm that the brain, even beyond age sixty, if it’s fed a diet of complexity, newness and problem solving can flower and bloom. Engaging in fine arts addresses all three factors. Whether writing short stories, learning to play music, or painting landscapes—which are only a few among the many fine arts options—the brain benefits and continues to develop. Ironically, natural changes in brain and hormonal functioning beyond sixty actually facilitates mastery of the fine arts in ways not available to younger people. Dr. Toder’s new book, The Vintage Years: Finding Your Inner Artist (Writer, Musician, Visual Artist) After Sixty (285 pages, hard cover) explains these new findings in neuroscience while also glancing into the lives of more than twenty late-blooming artists who first took up the violin, memoir writing, or other artistic pursuits after they turned sixty. While some were motivated by curiosity, others desired to realize a previously unmet dream. Their stories inspire and validate Toder’s research. The book includes bibliographical references and index. Francine Toder, Ph.D., is an emeritus faculty member of California State University Sacramento and is a clinical psychologist recently retired from private practice. She is also the author of When Your Child Is Gone: Learning to Live Again (Ballantine, 1986) and Your Kids Are Grown: Moving On With and Without Them (Plenum Press, 1996) both critically acclaimed. Her extensive writing on diverse topics has appeared in magazines, professional journals, and edited-book chapters. She resides with her husband in the San Francisco area where she practices the cello daily.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most woodturners have children in their lives who would appreciate a hand-turned toy (or several). The projects in Turning Toys can serve as a base for almost limitless variation, so you can put your own stamp on each object you create. Repetition is the key to mastering any craft, so these projects are in part skill-builders that you can repeat and thereby hone your turning techniques. You can get plenty of practice when small kids can't have too many peg dolls, balls, or things on wheels. You'll see ways of salvaging a situation when things go wrong, as they inevitably do when you have a catch or the wood splits. Disasters become design opportunities. The photos and drawings show you what to do, step-by-step; you'll see exactly how the tools are used, how the cutting edge should relate to the surface you're cutting, and how to stand to support and hold the tools so that working at your lathe is a comfortable and pleasurable activity. Few things can be more satisfying than making stuff for people you know, let alone love, especially when you can watch them using and enjoying the products of your labors. This book will bring you many happy and fruitful hours at the lathe creating heirlooms for future generations.

In fact, he's so smoking-hot Randy can hardly breathe as Max appraises his shoebox full of vintage toys. All Randy wants to do is buy his supportive mom a great Christmas gift, but Max needs to see some photo ID before he’ll pony up the cash. Randy isn't keen to show it, because his legal name is still Jennifer Ann. Sure Max seems friendly, but Randy's afraid his secret will be a deal-breaker. This gay transgender holiday romance by G.R. Richards is a fan favourite, and now it comes complete with its sequel, Junk! “Junk” is the term Randy uses to describe Max’s many storage boxes. The guys deal in antiques and ephemera, so it's a necessary mess. Only one problem: their merchandise is everywhere! Randy's starting to think material possessions mean more to Max than he does. Terrible timing, because Randy needs his boyfriend’s support right now, at the crux of his legal transition to living male.
