Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

When a quaint Pennsylvania town hosts a Civil War reenactment, only the blood will be real.... How does a once-hip New Yorker get used to living in a quaint Pennsylvania town famous for its gooey, oversized sticky buns? For Tori Miracle, it means kissing her diet good-bye, always showing up in the wrong clothes, and struggling with a love life. And now that she's filling in for the editor of the Lickin Creek Chronicle and has the town newspaper to look after as well as her own dear fastidious felines, sometimes it means cosponsoring public events like a Civil War reenactment for the local women's college. But when this charmingly authentic reenactment is done, and each man and woman has played his or her part to the hilt, it's clear that Tori has miscalculated again. Someone used one live bullet in an antique gun. And with a man dead, it's going to be up to the only city slicker in Lickin Creek to unravel a mystery of murder in a town where calories don't count, but murder does....

100 Things to Do at the Lake of the Ozarks Before You Die

By: Valerie Battle Kienzle

Nicknamed the Dragon for its shape, the Lake of the Ozarks main channel spans 92 miles and four counties, boasting more than 1,100 miles of shoreline. Each year, thousands of people travel to the lake to fish, swim, and relax, but the lake offers so much more. 100 Things to Do in Lake of the Ozarks Before You Die examines this 91-year-old man-made recreation destination and the activities, attractions, and amenities that developed around it. Of course you’ll want to explore plenty of outdoor activities at Lake of the Ozarks State Park, Lake Waters at Dog Days Restaurant & Water Bar, and wakeboard lessons at Kirby’s School of Wake. Take advantage of seemingly endless year-round opportunities for all ages, from championship golf courses like Osage National Golf Course, ropes courses at the Malted Monkey, and romantic sunset dinners at Baxter’s Lakeside Grill. From luxury accommodations and award-winning restaurants to recreation, entertainment, and education, the lake area is a destination to be experienced and savored. An Osage Beach devotee herself, author Valerie Battle Kienzle offers this carefully selected collection of places to see, things to do, and unique opportunities. So, stick your toes in the sand, savor sunset at a lakeside restaurant, or hike your way to spectacular vistas, all at the Lake of the Ozarks.

The Extraordinary Life of Edwin B. Winans

From the Stampede for Gold in California to the Capitol of Michigan

By: Valerie Winans

There was a mystery around the walking stick hidden away in the front hall closet. It was rarely even mentioned. It was revealing to pull it down from the top shelf and slide it out of the sleeve that protected it and into the light of day. The walking stick made of California redwood and topped with a nugget of quartz veined with gold is beautiful and impressive, stopping its observer in his tracks and making him wonder where it came from and who owned such an ornament. Who was the man who had the hubris to stroll down the street swinging such a glorious walking stick? The man, Edwin Winans, is as impressive as his stick. His story is revealed here in stages of his growth, starting as a young man in his quest for gold. He suffered much before he was successful; there's a love story to recount, adventures, and political intrigues. This story of his life presents an insight into the unusual man who left Michigan a better place because he lived, worked, served, and left a legacy.

Dentofacial Anomalies

Implications for Voice and Wind Instrument Performance

By: Abdul Latif Hamdan,Robert Thayer Sataloff,Valerie Trollinger,Mary J. Hawkshaw

This volume provides an eloquent review of the anatomy and physiology of phonation, the work-up of patients with voice disorders, basic evaluation of wind instrument performance and dysfunction, and a full description of the most common skeletal and non-skeletal dentofacial anomalies, including their means of diagnosis and treatment. This is followed by a comprehensive review of literature on the vocal and acoustic features of affected patients, as well as the special considerations in wind instrumentalists. The effect of orthodontic therapy/ orthognathic surgery on voice, associated upper airway changes, and wind instruments performance is emphasized. The information provided in this book will heighten the patients’, therapists’, teachers’ and physicians’ awareness of the vocal characteristics and wind instrumentalists concerns often associated with these conditions. Dentofacial Anomalies: Implications for Voice and Wind Instrument Performance is addressed to otolaryngologists, laryngologists, speech-language pathologists, voice teachers, professional voice users, wind instrumentalists, instrument teachers, arts medicine physicians, physical therapists, orthodontists and other dentists, as well as members of the general public who are concerned about their voices and or wind instrument playing.

The Myth of Pain

By: Valerie Gray Hardcastle

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Myth of Pain

By: Valerie Gray Hardcastle

Valerie Gray Hardcastle argues that both professional and lay definitions of pain are wrongheaded -- with consequences for how pain and pain patients are treated, how psychological disorders are understood, and how clinicians define the mind/body relationship. Pain, although very common, is little understood. Worse still, according to Valerie Gray Hardcastle, both professional and lay definitions of pain are wrongheaded -- with consequences for how pain and pain patients are treated, how psychological disorders are understood, and how clinicians define the mind/body relationship. Hardcastle offers a biologically based complex theory of pain processing, inhibition, and sensation and then uses this theory to make several arguments: (1) psychogenic pains do not exist; (2) a general lack of knowledge about fundamental brain function prevents us from distinguishing between mental and physical causes, although the distinction remains useful; (3) most pain talk should be eliminated from both the folk and academic communities; and (4) such a biological approach is useful generally for explaining disorders in pain processing. She shows how her analysis of pain can serve as a model for the analysis of other psychological disorders and suggests that her project be taken as a model for the philosophical analysis of disorders in psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience.

Counting Molecules Within Cells

Counting Molecules Within Cells

By: Valerie Coffman,I-Ju Lee,Jian-Qiu Wu

A fundamental component of quantitative cell biology is the ability to count molecules within cells. The numbers of molecules and stoichiometries are the basis for structural models of protein complexes and simulations of biological processes. A variety of methods exist for in vivo quantifications, but the focus of this volume is mainly on fluorescence methods. The two most popular methods are stepwise photobleaching and ratio comparison using a standard curve. With recent advances in genome editing techniques, most model organisms are amenable to inserting coding sequences for fluorescent proteins into native genetic loci, making quantification of proteins by fluorescence microscopy one of the most ubiquitous tools available to cell biologists. The acquisition and analysis methods range from simple to complex, and most have been validated by counting with multiple methods and other types of data. Researchers should be aware of sources of error in the acquisition and analysis, but the accuracy of these methods is high. Quantification by fluorescence microscopy has yielded valuable new insights into many aspects of cell biology, highlighting its place among the standard tools for molecular and cell biologists.
