Описание: Valuable tips, tricks, and advice from a veteran young adult with Type 1 diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) can be a daunting diagnosis, especially for a young kid or a teen. Patrick McAllister knows. Diagnosed with T1D at age twelve, McAllister's life changed forever, and he faced an uncertain future of insulin shots, diet regulations, and high school. If only I had a roadmap, he thought. So, years after he learned things the hard way, he decided to write one.
Whether it is managing mood swings, hormones, or blood sugar levels, Highs & Lows of Type 1 Diabetes is the ultimate teenager's and young adult's handbook for surviving, thriving, and flourishing with T1D during one of the most terrifying, yet exciting, phases of your life. Many think of T1D as a scary disease that is sporadic and uncontrollable, but after eight years of dealing with the literal and figurative highs and lows of T1D, McAllister has learned that it is more a lifestyle change. These pages detail a framework for every situation you could possibly imagine involving T1D, from coming home from the hospital after your diagnosis to preparing to leave your nest for freshman year at college. Learn how to:
Count carbohydrates, pump insulin like a pro, and correct irregular blood sugar levels
Tell your friends, get good grades, and survive school
Play sports with the right game-plan
Navigate sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll
And more
Type 1 diabetes stinks, but you don't have to go through it blind and alone Some have learned it the hard way, but Highs & Lows of Type 1 Diabetes will ensure that you will take control of your T1D diagnosis, conquer your adolescent years, and live a healthy and fulfilling life.

Описание: Place and Locality in Modern France analyses the significance and changing constructions of local place in modern France. Drawing on the expertise of a range of scholars from around the world, this book provides a timely overview of the cross-disciplinary thinking that is currently taking place over a central issue in French history.
The contributed chapters address a range of subjects that include:
the politics of administrative reform, decentralization, regionalism and local advocacy;
the role of commerce in engendering narratives and experience of local place;
the importance of ethnic, class, gender and race distinctions in shaping local connection and identity;
the generation and transmission of knowledge about local place and culture through academia, civic heritage and popular memory.
As a reconsideration of the 'local' in French history, Place and Locality in Modern France bridges the divide between micro- and macro-history for all those interested in ideas of locality and culture in modern French and European history.

The Exchange Invest 1000 is an index of the most influential people in the world's market structure (exchanges, clearing houses et al).
The Index uses a series of proprietary algorithms, devised by Index Compiler and Editor, Patrick L Young, a former exchange CEO and longstanding expert in the market structure field.
The EI1000 Index was created as a result of the popularity of the Exchange Invest Newsletter, created and curated by Patrick L Young which has become the world's daily benchmark newsletter of market structures.
This is the First Volume of the Index which will become an annual publication and contains the full list of the 1000 leading figures in the world's market structure in numerical order. There are also sections for people who have suffered Relegation from the index or those who have Resigned or Retired from the industry. A separate sectoin outlines those industry members who have passed away in recent times.
The book includes some 30 sub lists ranging from the top 10 by different geographies, through leading women, and other topics such as "Dealmakers" "Visionaries" and those involved in "Blockchain" and "FinTech" etc.
In this volume sixteen essays, in either German or English, present readings of international narratives for children and young adults (CYAL), including films and picture books, within a narratological framework. The works discussed come from different countries: Australia, Canada, Ecuador, Germany, Greece, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, the United Kingdom, and the USA. The contributors combine classical narratology with other approaches in narrative theory. This methodological approach leads to readings that produce new insights on the structure and meaning of the texts discussed.
Der Sammelband enth?lt sechzehn Artikel, teils auf Deutsch, teils auf Englisch, die sich mit dem Erz?hlen in Texten der internationalen Kinder- und Jugendliteratur sowie in Filmen besch?ftigen. Die Beispiele stammen aus zehn verrschiedenen L?ndern: Australien, Deutschland, Ecuador, Griechenland, Gro?britannien, Kanada, Neuseeland, Norwegen, Polen und den USA. Die Beitr?ger verbinden die klassische Narratologie mit neueren geschichtlichen Entwicklungen und Ans?tzen in der Erz?hlforschung. Auf diese Weise ergeben sich neue Einsichten in Struktur und Bedeutung der untersuchten Texte und Filme.
