A Work In Progress

adventures in pursuing the code to self-discovery

By: Rich Melcher

One evening, Kuna and Dametrie, two study geeks, decided to take a break from their algebra lesson and shoot indoor hoops. They crumpled pieces of notebook paper and began to shoot at a strange woven basket in the corner of Kuna’s room—a basket that Kuna had never seen before. Aft er a number of misses, Kuna connected. Suddenly a bright purple glow arose from underneath their impromptu basketball. When opened, the previously blank sheet of paper had writi ng on it in a foreign language. It looked African, possibly a language Kuna’s Cameroonian Grandmother might understand. With her help, they discovered it was the fi rst clue to a mysterious ethics code, which sent them off on a journey to uncover the next nine clues—an adventure that had promise of great intrigue and self-discovery.

Discerning Bipolar Grace

~a Man at His Best Dealing with Bipolar at Its Worst~

By: Rich Melcher

Imagine a world where consciousness shifts from one personality indiscriminately and stealthily to another. This was the reality for author/speaker Rich Melcher in 2008, as bipolar mania converged with regressed emotions to form a perfect storm of emotional disaster. Melcher writes about his brush with explosive anger and uprooting resentment in Discerning Bipolar Grace, a memoir about bipolar mania and its powerful force that nearly ruined his life. Filled with information about bipolar and the hope and encouragement that pulled him through, Discerning Bipolar Grace is a testament to the mercy of God and the power of forgiveness.

The Record Men: The Chess Brothers and the Birth of Rock & Roll (Enterprise)

By: Rich Cohen

Brilliant; the best book I have ever read about the recording industry; a classic."--Larry King On the south side of Chicago in the late 1940s, two immigrants; one a Jew born in Russia, the other a black blues singer from Mississippi; met and changed the course of musical history. Muddy Waters electrified the blues, and Leonard Chess recorded it. Soon Bo Diddly and Chuck Berry added a dose of pulsating rhythm, and Chess Records captured that, too. Rock & roll had arrived, and an industry was born. In a book as vibrantly and exuberantly written as the music and people it portrays, Rich Cohen tells the engrossing story of how Leonard Chess, with the other record men, made this new sound into a multi-billion-dollar business; aggressively acquiring artists, hard-selling distributors, riding the crest of a wave that would crash over a whole generation. Originally published in hardcover as Machers and Rockers. About the series: Enterprise pairs distinguished writers with stories of the economic forces that have shaped the modern worlds; the institutions, the entrepreneurs, the ideas. Enterprise introduces a new genre; the business book as literature.

Toll and Toll-Like Receptors:

An Immunologic Perspective

By: Tina Rich

Toll Receptors and the Renaissance of Innate Immunity Elizabeth H. Bassett and Tina Rich Overview n the last few pages of Immunology: The Science of Self-Nonself Discrimination Jan Klein ponders on what he would study if he were to start over in the lab. ^ Dismissing the I antibody, MHC, the T-cell and parasitology, he considers instead the phylogeny of immune reactions, particularly in ancient phyla. As for a favored cell he chooses the macrophage. Describ ing it as a ^^MddchenfUr alles," (all purpose kitchen maid) Klein believed that this immunocyte still had secrets to reveal. Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) biology would prove to be one of these secrets. Analyses of the evolution of these receptors (Tolls and TLRs) have also helped us to rethink immune system phylogeny. In the first part of this chapter the history of the discovery of Toll and TLR biology is described. The evolution of the TLR genes and theories of immune function are covered in later sections. The remainder of this book presents work from nine groups active in the field. In the first chapter, "The Function of Toll-Like Receptors", Zlatko Dembic sets the stage by introducing us to many of the components of the immune system and their relationships vis a vis Toll receptors. Zlatko finishes his chapter with a discussion about current immune system models and contributes his own 'integrity model'. Work from the laboratory of Nicholas Gay follows this in "Structures and Motifs Involved in Toll Signaling".
