| fattest guinea pig: Midlife Battle N. Z. Nasser, 2022-11-30 My nails made little moons in my palms. Middle-aged women might have froth and bubble on their upper layers but underneath, we were tidal waves. Death is coming for me, of that there is no doubt. My hair greys quicker than before, as if she already has a grip. Life with Ezra and our daughter is joyful, but the city is strange. Footsteps trail in the snow where no man has walked. An unexpected migration of birds clouds the London sky. The book buried in the grove of the cottage whispers to me, even though I ignore it. When the Wild Hunt sounds its horns and the blue goddess rides, the drumbeat of doom fills the Otherworld. Gaia is jittery, more bride than warrior. I am her champion, though I have no experience of leading an army. Though I prefer compassion to my obsidian blade. As magical factions take sides, the only constant is treachery. The new Prime Sorceress wants an alliance, but after her betrayal of Ezra, how can I trust her? As my power curls within me, Rayna’s diaries illuminate a way out of the darkness and I dare to hope destiny favours me. It all comes down to this. Blood, graft, loyal friends and a handful of multivitamins. Together, we’ll stop the rogue gods from reforging humanity in their hateful image. Together, we must find a way to cheat Death or lose it all.

| fattest guinea pig: Guinea Pigs Eduardo P. Archetti, 2020-08-20 Guinea pigs have been reared and eaten by indigenous people in the Andes since ancient times, and it seemed rational to development planners to ‘modernize' their production. When these development projects ran into trouble, a team of anthropologists was invited to study the reasons for this lack of success. This intriguing book is the product of that study.What the author shows is that guinea pigs have a meaning in the social and ritual life of Ecuadorian peasants which is far from mundane. Rejecting the attempts of some anthropologists to reduce the production of guinea pigs and the festive life of the Andean community to a quest for protein, he explores the full complex of social and cultural practices which centre on this animal, and uses his study of its role within Andean culture to provide telling insights into how that culture itself is constituted -- its values, beliefs and attitudes. By working in a variety of communities with different ecological and ethnographic characteristics, the author has made a major contribution to ethnographic accounts of Ecuador and to the more general study of ritual, consumption and indigenous knowledge. He points us, in particular, towards the importance of the knowledge of women, who are those principally responsible for the care of an animal which is prized for its role in healing and central to Andean sociality. The book not only presents us with a colourful description of the range of cultural practices surrounding the guinea pig, ranging from the way the animals are reared, through a rich and complex cuisine, to their role in ritual life, but also highlights the way the gender dimension is central to understanding resistances to ‘modernization' and the power of ‘experts'. |

| fattest guinea pig: The Mourning of Angels Patricia S. Taylor Edmisten, 2001-10-15 ...a compelling story of female initiation. St. Petersburg Times I read Patricia Edmistens dramatic and sensuous debut novel, The Mourning of Angels in the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks. Her marvelous evocation of the first days of the Peace Corps provided an escape from the sadness of New York City, where I live, as well as a much-needed perspective on the savagery of that act. The Mourning of Angels captures the innocence of 1962 and 1963, before the Kennedy assassination, when many of us, swept up in the idealism of such a venture, joined the Peace Corps and journeyed to countries wed never heard of, and when young women seized the opportunity for a kind of adventure that until then had almost solely been the purview of men. Lydia Schaefer, Edmistens 23-year-old protagonist from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a tough, principled, sometimes provocative, but always emotionally receptive young woman, determined to do her job as a health care worker, first in Arequipa, Peru and later in the coastal town of Ica. In straightforward, beautifully descriptive prose, subtly impregnated with the political and cultural history of Peru, Edmisten charts Lydia Schaefers journey from innocence--she is a Catholic girl, still a virgin, the product of a protective, loving home--to a stark, tragic maturity. Lydia describes her view beyond her barriada in Arequpa. Gray and white dominate the landscape. No road is paved. There are no trees. Nothing green. No spring flowers interfere with the dreariness. Looking up, however, there is visual relief. Misti, a 19,150-foot volcano, said to be dormant by experts, but alive to those who know her tremors, rises proudly over The City of my Hope. Snow lavishly bleeds down her sides, like the white mantle of the Madonna. As this image of the Virgins cloak implies, Lydia struggles with her strong Catholic beliefs in the face of rampant infant mortality, the yearly pregnancies of poor women, and the Churchs refusal to allow birth control. Interestingly, she never gives up her Catholicism, but rather gradually adapts the religion to her new knowledge and beliefs, much as Indians force the Catholic church to incorporate native rituals into the liturgy. She breaks her own rule to remain a virgin until marriage. With a sensuality that is both innocent and literally rapturous, Edmisten writes of Lydia making love with her in-country co-worker, Rafael. He is mestizo with a Spanish father and Indian mother. They are journeying bak to his village beyond Machu Picchu, when they stop to swim in a mountain pool and then make love. Rafaels kiss is moist and sweet, and as he eases on top of me, it becomes more familiar, more urgent. The air is fresh and fragrant, a light breeze glances off our warm bodies. I look up at blinding white clouds and reach my arms out to them. We remain immobile for a few minutes and then slowly rock. A condor soars overhead. I have read of eagles mating in mid-air, free falling, unaware of the doom below. It was like that. The doom she senses in her moment of sexual abandon fortells of political clashes and violence that will irrevocably change her life and radicalize her world view. Edmisten is masterful in portraying the customs, politics, food, suffering, playful activities and collective nature of life for the Indians of that region. She elegantly weaves in strands of history and political theory. Though generous of spirit throughout, by the end of her painful story, Edmisten has shown how the Church, the United States in its fight against communism during that period, the cultural innocence of Americans, the abusive powers within the country are all at least morally complicit in the continuance of devastating poverty, the subjugation of women, and the oppression of Indians. Reading The Mourning of Angels in a time of national mourning viscerally reminded me that other cultures and nations have suf |
| fattest guinea pig: Guinea Pig Dorothy Yamamoto, 2015-06-15 Guinea pigs are one of the world’s most popular pets—small, friendly, easy to care for, and unbearably cute. We have felt this way for a long time: guinea pigs were first domesticated in 5000 B.C.E. Since then they have inspired historical figures ranging from the scientist William Harvey to the artists Jan Brueghel and Beatrix Potter. In this book, Dorothy Yamamoto offers the first in-depth treatment of this cuddly little creature over the several millennia it has been a part of our lives. Yamamoto examines the role guinea pigs have today—as pets—but also looks back to less loving times when guinea pigs were put to more direct use. She discusses them as a crucial sacrificial offering to Incan gods, as the entrée in the Cusco Cathedral’s painting of The Last Supper, and as a highly favored experimental subject—for which they have become the quintessential metaphor for anyone in the same unfortunate circumstance. Threading her account with examples from the guinea pig’s many appearances in literature and art, Yamamoto reveals the personality and cultural importance of an animal we have always wanted to keep nearby, providing a fun and unique book for any animal lover.

| fattest guinea pig: Mr Price 27 Years with the RNLI Chris Price, 2020-05-10 'Mr Price' Have you ever felt vulnerable near the sea? - top of a cliff, drifting off the beach or boating in bad weather - wind, waves and tide. Running through your mind will be the prospect of a disaster - that sudden realisation that the outdoors is so much bigger than you are. There could quickly come a moment when you are desperate for help. Risk is no longer fun - it's got serious. That moment of acute consciousness is when you need the likes of Mr Price. The British people, inhabiting this island, have a passion for the sea. In summer months we flock to the coast, some venture into the waves, some need to go beyond. Over generations this maritime adventure has taken us to far lands and has given this nation its global reputation as a sea faring nation. This has come at a cost. Charts of the British coast show the marks of wrecks that each tell their own story of weather, misadventure and misfortune. Graveyards in these areas sometimes help tell the grizzly tale of lives ended in such disasters but for so many more, there is no mark on land for those lost to the seas. Back in the early 19th Century when our nation depended so much on nautical supply lines there were an average of 1800 shipwrecks a year. Sir William Hillary set out a plan for a large body of men to be trained and ready to help save lives at sea. And so, in 1824, was born the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. If you have visited the coast you will probably have seen the reassuring presence of those blue and orange craft that you had seen on telly, rescuing lives and craft. It's the RNLI, manifest in its lifeboats, crew wrapped in high-vis oilies and life jackets, helmeted, anonymous. These men and women - all volunteers - represent the bravest of our nation. As we might pray to be lifted from the worst of the weather and the sea, these people respond to the maroon, tog up and set off into the worst of it. The autobiographical account of Mr Price will take you with them out into the face of danger. Chris Price, a craftsman and highly respected professional out in the gun trade, provides, tantalisingly, just sufficient insight into his private life to help us understand the motivations and relationships that hang behind the lifeboatman. Then, it's all about the team. The ups and downs of progressing through the ranks eventually to be called by the skipper to join the crew on a shout. It's written in Chris's own voice - you will get to know this remarkable character well, on and off the boat. The selected stories of just some of his such shouts reveal the true picture of what goes on aboard a lifeboat on operations. The people, their friendships and the utter reliance on each other to be able to do what they do. The weather, the sea sickness, the routines, the exhaustion. The sense of achievement in a successful rescue and the numbing emotions of body recovery. You will be gripped as you travel with them. The excitement will be tangible, you will smell the diesel and the sick. You will be part of the team on board and with them you will laugh and cry. At the end of each chapter you will be exhausted. 'Mr Price' is a read for everyone. The life lessons flood out on every page. Only very few books convey the power of relationships and bonds that exist in small teams under pressure; this is one of them. For seafarers, it is a cautionary tale; for landlubbers it is a glimpse into the perils of the sea. For all, it is the story of real people putting themselves at huge risk to help others. It is spellbinding and an emotional roller-coaster. Simon R West OBE. MA. |

Before he can expose the heinous plot, he dies under curious circumstances, the work buried and lost among the tens of thousands of notes and articles he’s produced over his lifetime.

In his eighth novel, Bruce Weiss once again delivers a spellbinding tale that will keep the reader totally involved right up to the most shocking ending. |
| fattest guinea pig: Halogenated Biphenyls, Terphenyls, Naphthalenes, Dibenzodioxins and Related Products R.D. Kimbrough, A.A. Jensen, 2012-12-02 The chemical industry is increasingly faced with problems arizing from chemicals produced during the manufacture of halogenated biphenyls or phenols. Knowledge of these chemicals and their destructive properties is sporadic, and the acute toxicity of this group varies widely. This informative revised edition presents the chemistry, environmental pollution problems, animal toxicology and information about structure-activity relationships. A brief overview is given of worker exposure and occupational illness. The book is divided into three parts: chemistry and environmental contamination; experimental toxicology; and human exposure and effects. Because of the great deal of interest in these compounds much new research work has been conducted since the first edition of this book was published. This revised edition has retained the effectiveness and clarity of the first edition, while being supplemented with new information, condensed old information, and examples of recent incidents. |
