Fight Short White

Here is something that many proponents of the glycemic index diets will not tell you: to succeed on this diet you really need to learn to go beyond it. Knowing how a certain food affects your blood sugar goes a long way towards helping keep you healthy and trim, but if that's all you are focusing on, you won't be doing yourself any favors, plain and simple. Here is a really good example of why you need to use your common sense instead of blindly relying on the gycemic index: brown rice.
Brown rice and white rice both have similar GI values: 55 for brown vs 58 for white rice. Instant rice has an even lower glycemic index-- only 46. Does that meant that it doesn't matter which you choose? Or-- worse yet-- that you should go for instant rice over the whole grain brown rice variety? Absolutely not.
The two types of rice differ in much more than just their color. Brown rice is a whole natural grain. It has a distinct, nutty but mild taste. White rice, on the other hand, is produced by removing various layers of the grain and then polishing the rice. As as a result, white rice is stripped of many vitamins and minerals which are contained in the whole grain and which are essential for good health. These include vitamins like B1, B6, B3, among others, as well as minerals like iron, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, etc.
Here is another advantage of the intact whole grain type of rice, not reflected in the glycemic index: brown rice is also heart healthy. Various studies indicate that regular consumption may help lower cholesterol levels as well as help control blood pressure. This is because this type of long grain rice also contains rice bran oil, which may help lower LDL cholesterol.
In addition, brown rice, just like other fiber rich foods, promotes digestive system health. Fiber-rich diets have been shown in many studies to help prevent diseases such as colon cancer. Apart from its direct health benefits, fiber also makes you feel fuller, so you eat less.
To be fair, the glycemic index is not the only dietary system that "discriminates" against brown rice. The truth of the matter is that many people are simply not used to eating or cooking with it. This includes individuals from societies where rice is an everyday staple: throughout Asia, this type of rice has often been thought of as war-time food or food of the poor. To experience its health benefits, make sure you give this flavorful, versatile grain a fair chance. Experiment with different varieties: short grain, long grain, sticky rice, basmati brown rice. They all differ in how they taste and behave in dishes, so experiment until you find something that appeals to you. Go beyond simple steamed rice and try different sauces and different preparations as well-- veggie fried brown rice, for instance, makes a super-fast, family-friendly meal.
Bottom line: no diet theory should ever replace common sense! As we have seen with the glycemic index, brown rice is a case in point. Its health benefits make it a far superior choice than its glycemic index values alone may indicate.

Fight Scenes $20 In an intricately linked series of poetic, short tales set in a 1983 suburb, Greg Bottoms portrays his life as one of two “at-risk” boys as they attempt to learn how to be—and what it means to be—men. By turns funny, disquieting, and moving, Fight Scenes takes an unsparing look at juvenile disaffection and the dark side of white, working-class masculinity. By narrating his experiences with childhood buddy Mark, Bottoms shows how many of America’s young men learn to think about work, sex, weakness, violence, and themselves. In a pared-down, highly readable style that brings to mind the work of Raymond Carver, Sherman Alexie, and Denis Johnson, Bottoms has created a work of literature that shows how even the most accepted forms of “toughness” can have a damaging, disorienting, and finally dehumanizing effect on everyone, especially kids. |

Fight the Right (Hardcover) $36.11 Everywhere you look, these days, Conservatives are winning elections. No matter where you look, the story is the same: white, angry men on the Right are winning power. The Left, meanwhile, is divided and dispirited, and rapidly losing ground. Fight the Right is a handbook on how to survive the nasty, brutish and short-sighted era in which we find ourselves and is designed to help progressives better understand their conservative adversary, and ultimately defeat conservatives wherever the battle is taking shape. It`s a manual on how conservatives have appropriated language and values, and how progressives can take both back. Written in a fun, accessible, style, Fight the Right will appeal to those about to launch an advocacy effort, as well as those who are simply curious about how (and if) the Right thinks. It is chock full of war stories and not-so-tall tales about winning progressive campaigns, from everyone from Jean Chretien to Bobby Kennedy, Jr., and it will argue--forcefully--that a United Right can`t be defeated until a United Left emerges. Wherever conservative power-brokers are hurting average citizens and hard-working families, Fight the Right will provide a tested road map on how to beat the bullies. |

The Good Fight $9.16 Former vice president Walter Mondale makes a passionate, timely argument for American liberalism in this revealing and momentous political memoir. For more than five decades in public life, Walter Mondale has played a leading role in America’s movement for social change—in civil rights, environmentalism, consumer protection, and women’s rights—and helped to forge the modern Democratic Party. In The Good Fight , Mondale traces his evolution from a young Minnesota attorney general, whose mentor was Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, into a U.S. senator himself. He was instrumental in pushing President Johnson’s Great Society legislation through Congress and battled for housing equality, against poverty and discrimination, and for more oversight of the FBI and CIA. Mondale’s years as a senator spanned the national turmoil of the Nixon administration; its ultimate self-destruction in the Watergate scandal would change the course of his own political fortunes. Chosen as running mate for Jimmy Carter’s successful 1976 campaign, Mondale served as vice president for four years. With an office in the White House, he invented the modern vice presidency; his inside look at the Carter administration will fascinate students of American history as he recalls how he and Carter confronted the energy crisis, the Iran hostage crisis, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and other crucial events, many of which reverberate to the present day. Carter’s loss to Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election set the stage for Mondale’s own campaign against Reagan in 1984, when he ran with Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman on a major party ticket; this progressive decision would forever change the dynamic of presidential elections. With the 1992 election of President Clinton, Mondale was named ambassador to Japan. His intriguing memoir ends with his frank assessment of the Bush-Cheney administration and the first two years of the presidency of Barack Obama. Just as indispensably, he charts the evolution of Democratic liberalism from John F. Kennedy to Clinton to Obama while spelling out the principles required to restore the United States as a model of progressive government. The Good Fight is replete with Mondale’s accounts of the many American political heavyweights he encountered as either an ally or as an opponent, including JFK, Johnson, Humphrey, Nixon, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, Senator Gary Hart, Reagan, Clinton, and many others. Eloquent and engaging, The Good Fight illuminates Mondale’s philosophies on opportunity, governmental accountability, decency in politics, and constitutional democracy, while chronicling the evolution of a man and the country in which he is lucky enough to live. |

First to Fight $36.67 Henry Mihesuah, a Comanche of the Quahada band, has led an ordinary modern American Indian life filled with extraordinary moments. Growing up in the 1920s and 1930s on his familys allotment outside Duncan, Oklahoma, Mihesuah was a member of a family of farmers who gave part of what they grew to black sharecroppers and often helped feed their poorer white neighbors. Never afraid of controversy and always the first to fight, Henry Mihesuah fell in love with and married a white woman and then served a dangerous tour of duty in the Marines in postWorld War II China. In the 1950s he took a chance and, encouraged by a federal government program, relocated along with many other Indians to seek urban employment in California. Barely surviving a horrific traffic accident, Mihesuah eventually returned home to Oklahoma, where he has spent the last few decades fighting racism and attempts to take his familys land, eschewing local politics yet also taking many steps to reclaim and revitalize connections to his Comanche family and culture, past and present.Henry Mihesuah spoke at length about his life to his daughterinlaw, accomplished historian Devon Abbott Mihesuah, who has carefully researched and edited those hours of conversation into an engaging, detailed account that is at once honest, informative, and moving. Readers come to know and respect how one forthright Comanche man unyieldingly walks his own path in the modern world, the ways in which events big and small have affected him, and how, with his wife, family, land, strong opinions, and tough choices made along the way, Henry Mihesuah leads a happy and fulfilling life. Author: Mihesuah, Henry/ Mihesuah, Devon A. Series Title: American Indian Lives Binding Type: Hardcover Number of Pages: 103 Publication Date: 2002/11/01 Language: English Dimensions: 9.44 x 6.16 x 0.68 inches |
