A Whole New Mind
Joe Brandmeier$29.99(USD)
Just as we were getting used to the information age, Daniel Pink tells us that it is ending. With it goes our focus on charts, statistics, and linear thinking. Traditional "left-brain" activities like logic, analysis, and repetitive production are being turned over to robots, computers, and offshore labor. The valued skills of 21st century will be those of the right brain: empathy, design, synthesis, and contextual thinking. Author and lecturer Daniel Pink tells you how abundance, Asia, and automation are changing the world, why "routine" is the scariest word in the English language, how old line companies like GM and Proctor & Gamble are responding and what six abilities matter most in the emerging age. Daniel Pink completed law school and passed the bar, but is proud to say that he has never practiced law. What he has done is write best-selling business books, work in the White House and as a Senate staffer, advise Fortune 100 companies, provide business analysis on TV and radio, and write for the New York Times, Harvard Business Review, and Wired Magazine. Bonus materials include in-depth interview, audience Q&A session, and more!

Healing with Whole Foods: Asian Traditions and Modern Nutrition
Paul Pitchford$60.00(USD)
Used as a reference by students of acupuncture, this is a hefty, truly comprehensive guide to the theory and healing power of Chinese medicine. It's also a primer on nutrition—including facts about green foods, such as spirulina and blue-green algae, and the "regeneration diets" used by cancer patients and arthritics—along with an inspiring cookbook with more than 300 mostly vegetarian, nutrient-packed recipes.
The information on Chinese medicine is useful for helping to diagnose health imbalances, especially nascent illnesses. It's smartly paired with the whole-foods program because the Chinese have attributed various health-balancing properties to foods, so you can tailor your diet to help alleviate symptoms of illness. For example, Chinese medicine dictates that someone with low energy and a pale complexion (a yin deficiency) would benefit from avoiding bitter foods and increasing "sweet" foods such as soy, black sesame seeds, parsnips, rice, and oats. (Note that the Chinese definition of sweet foods is much different from the American one!)
Pitchford says in his dedication that he hopes the reader finds "healing, awareness, and peace" from following his program. The diet is certainly acetic by American standards (no alcohol, caffeine, white flour, fried foods, or sugar, and a minimum of eggs and dairy) but the reasons he gives for avoiding these "negative energy" foods are compelling. From the adrenal damage imparted by coffee to immune dysfunction brought on by excess refined sugar, Pitchford spurs you to rethink every dietary choice and its ultimate influence on your health. Without being alarmist, he adds dietary tips for protecting yourself against the dangers of modern life, including neutralizing damage from water fluoridation (thyroid and immune-system problems may result; fluoride is a carcinogen). There's further reading on food combining, female health, heart disease, pregnancy, fasting, and weight loss. Overall, this is a wonderful book for anyone who's serious about strengthening his or her body from the inside out.
The Whole Nine Yards
Jonathan Lynn$14.96(USD)
Well, there goes the neighborhood -- in a pine box. When hit man Jimmy "The Tulip" Tudeski moves into a comfy suburb, everyone's suddenly in danger of pushing up daisies. And it's not all Jimmy's doing either. Jonathan Lynn (My Cousin Vinny) directs and a talented ensemble cast packs heat in this manic comedy about life, love and plenty of ammo. Bruce Willis plays Jimmy, whose arrival sparks a chain reaction in which just about everybody wants to clip somebody else. Matthew Perry plays a hapless dentist who finds a way to get on the Tulip's good and bad sides. And Rosanna Arquette, Michael Clarke Duncan, Natasha Henstridge, Amanda Peet and Kevin Pollak add to the yards of wacky and whacked fun.

ECO-heater Whole Room Heater
ECO-heaters are high efficiency wall mounted whole room heaters. The 24" by 24" panel is mounted ¾ away from the wall. As the panel heats up it draws cold air from the floor into the gap between the panel and the wall. The air is heated and rises into the room creating natural circulation of the warmed air without fans, blowers or potentially harmful air emissions found in oil and gas space heaters and forced hot air systems. They use only 400 watts of electricity, which is equivalent to the power consumed by four 100 watt light bulbs. This is less than 1/3 of the energy used by conventional 1,500 watt space heaters. Incredibly easy to install, ECO-heaters are UL listed and can heat a 120 square foot room, (depending on layout and construction materials). Almost every house has a cold spot, which can be eliminated by installing an ECO-heater. For maximum cost savings, you can run your central heating system at a minimum setting and use ECO-heaters in the rooms where you need them to achieve up to 50% savings in heating cost. In some climates you can even use eco-heaters as the sole source for heating your home as an alternative to a central heating system.
It takes a Whole Village
African Children's Choir$14.99(USD)
Early in the 1980’s, Ray Barnett traveled to Uganda after hearing a report saying, "Over 150,000 orphans are dying of starvation in Uganda". Ray, raised as an orphan himself, desperately wanted to do something. He knew if people back home could only see these beautiful children in person, they would help. That’s when the idea of a children’s choir came to mind. After much prayer and the financial assistance of several churches, a team was sent to Uganda to select and bring out the first African Children’s Choir. Today the African Children’s Choir will delight your heart. Each year a new group is selected, while former members go back home to Africa to receive care and a good education. As a testament to the program’s success, many former choir members are now in leadership positions and making a real impact in their homeland.
