Good News To Go: Thoughts of the Day, Good Samaritans, Pets & Animals, Comedy

Rinn’s Crossing is a high-stakes, high-octane dive into the gritty political battles that have ripped Alaska apart since statehood. 
 
Author Russell Heath was a lobbyist in the Alaska state legislature and saw state politics up close. Every dirty trick, every manipulation of rules and procedure, every casual betrayal of principle in this novel, happened in real life. “Except,” Heath says, “the final one. That was an invention.”
 
C Russell
Former Lobbyist and Personal Leadership Coach Pens Alaskan Political Thriller 

Rinn’s Crossing doesn’t compromise. There are no easy answers: People must work, the forests must be protected, and Native Alaskans must receive what was long promised to them. The moral choices are stark and everyone, when pushed hard enough, steps over the line.

Raising the Bottom: Making Mindful Choices in a Drinking Culture

by Lisa Boucher, RN

for more info, go to http://goodnewsplanet.com/raising-the-bottom-making-mindful-choices-in-a-drinking-culture-lisa-boucher/



Lisa is bringing audience awareness to the fact that people quarantined are feeling more and more disconnected, which causes them to turn to substances.

Moms who are expected to home to school & work are finding themselves more stressed-out than ever. People who may already have drinking problems are drinking more because they are alone and alcohol gets delivered to their homes with the click of a mouse or a tap of an app. Lastly, people in new recovery who don't have a sober network may not even realize zoom meetings were an option and many have relapsed. Calls to The suicide hotlines have also increased significantly.




So, where do we go from here? In this Book, Lisa Boucher offers hope. Hope that any of those in your audience that may be struggling with alcohol and addiction can read this book and know that they're not alone during these trying times. Within these pages, your audience will be able to examine and become aware of their own behaviors during this time, identify any problem areas, and stop any destructive patterns before they have a chance to take the audience from a place where they can stop to a place where they feel helpless to do so and feel they have no place to turn.



Here's the thing... It's not our fault. We live in a boozy culture, and the idea of women and wine has become entrenched.Is your book club really a “wine club”? Do you crave the release a drink can bring to cope with anxiety, parenthood, the pressures of being a mom, a wife/partner, a professional? In Raising the Bottom, mothers, daughters, health professionals, and young women share their stories of why they drank, how they stopped, and the joys and rewards of being present in their lives once they kicked alcohol to the curb.



Please see the short video created by the author, here.

“[Boucher] demonstrates that alcoholism is a disease that doesn’t discriminate by income level, education, or gender. Contrary to the thinking that women have to lose it all before making changes, she hopes that, by reading her book, women can recognize and deal with their potential alcoholism early on. Highly recommended.”―LibraryJournal (STARRED REVIEW)





Lisa Boucher a registered nurse. For the past twenty-eight years, she has worked with hundreds of women to overcome alcoholism, live better lives, and become better parents. Raising the Bottom is her fifth book. She was prompted to write raising the Bottom when she realized after twenty-plus years of working in hospitals, that doctors and traditional health care offer few solutions to women with addiction issues. She is the mother of twin sons and lives in Ohio with her husband.

How can the world's leading nations address the economic, health, and military threats more cooperatively? Augusto Lopez-Claros has a plan.

Your audience can feel the call-to-action of those in power who are tasked to grapple with the immediate crises that threaten humanity, wherever it is geographically located. All those who despair at the state of the world and its multiple problems will find in this book an ambitious but reasonable proposals that will give our globalized world the institutions of international governance necessary to resolve pressing problems including, but not limited to peace, security, and climate change.

In an interview Dr. Lopez-Claros can discuss:

· The urgent and non-trivial international problems currently confronted by humanity and why TheBulletin of Atomic Scientists earlier this year set their Humanity DoomsdayClock closer to midnight than at any point since the Cold War. It is now set at100 seconds to midnight, which, they remark, seems to constitute the “new normal.”
· There is the current global COVID19 pandemic, of course, with over twenty-four million global verified cases and what is approaching 800,000 deaths worldwide at the time of this writing. With devastating effects on the global economy and substantially setting back recent progress achieved in poverty alleviation... We are told that more global pandemics are on the horizon, linked in part to our other global ecological crises.
· Catastrophicbiodiversity loss (as we head into the planet’s Sixth Mass Extinction, this time human-caused), weapons proliferation and renewed arms races (including in relation to WMDs), global financial crisis management capacity which is weaker than it was during the 2008-2009 crisis, novel threats posed by AI and emerging technologies—including lethal autonomous weapons—enabling intensified cyberwarfare, the degeneration of the integrity of information ecosystems (so important for the proper functioning of healthy democracies), not to mention sobering problems of economic inequality, and the predicted “fourth industrial revolution,” with the resultant possible mass joblessness due to new waves of automation.
· The Proposals for global Governance for the 21st Century including proposals to reform the central institutions of the United Nations, including giving the reformed general Assembly powers to adopt binding legislation concerning peace and security and the global environment (i.e., for the first time creating a true global parliament), together with scientific advisory mechanisms and a strong voice for progressive global civil society. The dysfunctional and hamstrungSecurity Council would be replaced with an Executive Council with management functions, mechanisms to oversee staged and verified arms control, and an international Peace Force, supported by new, reliable funding mechanisms. It would similarly strengthen the international rule of law with binding jurisdiction for the International Court of Justice, complemented by theInternational Criminal Court, an anti-corruption court, and an international human rights tribunal.
· What is truly at stake if the world's governments and institutions cannot find more agile ways to implement changes
· Much More...
We include the book’s press release for additional background information and I look forward to hearing your interview interests for Dr. Augusto Lopez-Claros and GlobalGovernance soon.

WITH HEALTHY FALL FAVORITES FROM AWARD-WINNING ARMY CHEF
How the Army’s Culinary Specialists Are Using Food to Improve the
Health & Happiness of Soldiers

Feeding an Army of hungry Soldiers requires serious planning, but keeping meals tasty and healthy takes a whole new level of talent, creativity, and skill.

Thankfully, U.S. Army chefs are a group of gifted culinary specialists following their passion for the culinary arts, while serving their country and providing fellow Soldiers with the proper food and nutrition they need to fuel their bodies and minds, optimize energy, and perform at their best.

The nutritious food Army chefs dish out to Soldiers is driven by the Army’s “Go For Green” program that labels food either green (fresh produce, whole grains, lean fish), yellow (seafood, red meat, pasta), or red (desserts, fried foods, cheeses) to make it easy for Soldiers to find high-performance foods and drinks that boost their fitness, strength, and health.

While the Army’s dining facilities may remind the average person of traditional cafeterias, menus are anything but standard cafeteria fare. The Army’s culinary specialists offer a savory and tasty dining experience with the familiar taste of home, boosting the morale of Soldiers around the world.

As the weather cools down, award-winning Army chef and Staff Sergeant (SSG) Samantha Poe is dishing up delectable fall favorites, including a delicious and healthy beet cake full of essential vitamins that can help with blood pressure and athletic performance, which helped lead the U.S. Army Culinary Arts Team to a silver medal at the 2020 World Culinary Olympics in Stuttgart, Germany. SSG Poe was also named the American Culinary Federation (ACF) Pastry Chef of the Year in 2019.

SSG Poe shares her healthy fall recipes with the American public, discuss how the “Go for Green” program provides for the well-being of Army Soldiers, along with great ideas for home chefs who are looking to bring healthy, tasty options to the table this season – for football games, family dinners, and beyond.
