    Raised in a family of women born with tresses suitable for romance novel heroines, Rhonda was apathetic toward her kinky coils, and, in turn, herself. To Hair and Back – My Journey Toward Self-Love One Strand at a Time is a debut memoir that details her quest for the perfect head of hair and the discovery of something far more meaningful. In this endearing personal narrative, she explores the question: If I am not my hair, then who am I? Beginning in a Detroit ghetto and traversing the globe, the author boldly reveals the joy, despair, pride, and public humiliation she experienced while in search of her best self. Through humorous self-introspection, Rhonda uses her passion for hair to explore the dynamics of her relationships, as well as themes of race and gender. To Hair and Back takes the reader on a journey of a child bullied because of her knotty roots through her adventurous life-long crusade in search of the perfect hair. Masked as a need for creativity and a remedy for boredom, Rhonda’s obsession with her ever-changing hairstyles becomes a metaphor that anyone who has ever struggled with issues of self-worth will find relatable.

    Take a look on Youtube for all kinds of push-up challenges and examine the chest development of the guys doing them. Most of the times it's insignificant, right? Does that mean push-ups are a bad chest builder? Not at all. It's just that most people don't know how to activate their chest muscles properly. As a result, they do numerous reps without ever seeing their chest ever getting muscular. How do you turn your chest muscles “on” in order to get maximum activation and muscle building? You do that by bringing intensity into your push-ups. And intensity is not about reps, it's about how you perform those reps. How to sculpt a Greek God Marble Chest with Push-ups teaches you all the tools you will ever need in order to produce intensity. There are 4 techniques in the book that you can use to increase the intensity of your pushups: Learn how to switch on your chest. That way you make every rep count. Pre-stretch the muscle. Why? A muscle which is fully stretched is maximally activated and can be built faster. Don't lockout on the top. If you do, you will lose muscle tension since your body's weight rests on your joints and bones. Lean your body forward. By doing it, you are lifting even more weight with every rep. You go from lifting 60% of your body to lifting up to 90%, progressively overloading your chest muscles. Implement these 4 techniques today and watch your chest become sculpted like a Greek's God. Don’t hesitate to pick up your copy today by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page! P.S. You will also start noticing better pumps with every chest exercise you perform from now on.

    With her trademark wisdom and humor, Quindlen reflects on how her life has unfolded in tandem with Beau’s, and on the lessons she’s learned by watching him: to roll with the punches, to take things as they come, to measure herself not in terms of the past or the future but of the present, to raise her nose in the air from time to time and, at least metaphorically, holler, “I smell bacon!”Of the dog that once possessed a catcher’s mitt of a mouth, Quindlen reminisces, “there came a time when a scrap thrown in his direction usually bounced unseen off his head. Yet put a pork roast in the oven, and the guy still breathed as audibly as an obscene caller. The eyes and ears may have gone, but the nose was eternal. And the tail. The tail still wagged, albeit at half-staff. When it stops, I thought more than once, then we’ll know.”Heartening and bittersweet, Good Dog. Stay. honors the life of a cherished and loyal friend and offers us a valuable lesson on our four-legged family members: Sometimes an old dog can teach us new tricks.

    It feeds a whole industry of commentators, pundits and politicians who take great delight in whipping us all into a frenzy, speaking for the ‘ordinary people’. But, when ugly prejudices are being fed by professionals grown fat on the fear and fury of their consumers, it is time to stop and ask whether the faceless group of immigrants really exists – or whether it just appeals to our basest fears.In this lively polemic, James O’Brien brings some common sense back into the discussion. Some people want to be frightened. They thrive on anger and division and upset. But many people don’t, and it is they who are most let down – most insulted – by the immigration debate. We don’t need to buy into this myth. There is no such thing as ‘immigrants’. There is no ‘they’. There is only ‘we’.
