The Overnights: An Ashe Cayne Novel, Book 3 (An Ashe Cayne Mystery, 3)

“Chicago PI Ashe Cayne is the perfect hero for our times.”—Harlan Coben 
#1 New York Times bestselling author Ian K. Smith brings back former Chicago detective turned private eye Ashe Cayne in this eagerly anticipated mystery in which the investigator finds himself in a race against the clock to protect a high-profile Chicago news anchor and solve the racially charged murder of a Black teen by a white police officer. 
Someone wants Morgan Shaw dead—or so the beautiful, brilliant, and hugely popular evening news anchor of top-rated Chicago TV station WLTV believes. Fearing for her safety, she turns to P. I. Ashe Cayne for protection. Though he sympathizes, Ashe turns her down—he’s not a bodyguard. But when Morgan’s car tires are slashed and she’s threatened again, Ashe agrees to help her. 
Her mysterious assailant isn’t the only threat worrying Morgan. She’s nervous about the upcoming “sweeps”—the all-important overnight ratings period—which will determine Chicago’s highest-rated television newscast and the city’s number-one anchor. Morgan has long been Chicago’s news queen. Now, though her crown is in jeopardy. She refuses to lose to her crosstown rival, and will risk everything to stay on top—including an audacious investigation into the suspicious shooting of an unarmed African American man by a white cop. The explosive case and her discoveries boost her ratings—and create powerful enemies eager to protect their secrets. 
To save his client and find the truth, Ashe must wade through the tangled layers of competitive local news and the deceptive schemes of its power players, and uncover the identities of those behind the murder of a seemingly innocent man.

From #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author Dr. Ian K. Smith, a powerful six-week plan to burn fat more efficiently by improving metabolic flexibility. The human body has the amazing ability to switch which fuels it uses for energy based on what fuel is available at the time--researchers call this metabolic flexibility. Bodies that are able to make this switch can burn sugars, proteins, and other food nutrients when available, and then switch to burning the body's fat storage or fatty acids when food calories are not available.&nbsp;It turns out that losing weight is not just about burning calories, it's also about switching between these pathways as efficiently as possible. Yet little has been written about how to achieve metabolic flexibility--until now. Dr. Ian K. Smith is a renowned medical expert and the author of numerous bestselling health books. In&nbsp;The Met Flex Diet,&nbsp;he offers a one-of-a-kind plan to improve metabolic flexibility through changing the types and quantities of food/beverages consumed, as well as the type of exercise. Timing is also a factor--timing of meals and timing of exercise relative to when the meals are consumed. All of these variables will play an important role in helping the body make the important switch from one fuel source to another. In just six weeks, readers can experience amazing fat-burning results by following simple guidelines, like: <ul> <li>Eat the first meal of the day three hours after waking.</li> <li>Complete a fasted cardio workout within the first two hours of waking.</li> <li>Get at least seven hours of sleep a night.</li> <li>Finish dinner two hours before going to sleep.</li> </ul> Complete with meal and exercise plans, as well as recipes,&nbsp;The Met Flex Diet&nbsp;gives readers every tool they need to meet their weight loss goals.

Power Recovery from Low Grade Heat by Means of Screw Expanders

Current concerns with climate change have resulted in greatly increased interest in power recovery from low grade heat sources. This includes both hot fluid streams which can be expanded directly to produce mechanical power and those which act as a source of heat to closed cycle power generation systems. Power recovery from low grate heat by means of screw expanders with a generalised overview of how best to recover power from such sources, based on thermodynamic considerations, which differs to the approach used in classical thermodynamics textbooks and which includes an introductory description of the types of working fluid that are used in systems used to recover power from such sources and the criteria that must be taken into account in their selection. This is followed by a description of the mathematical modelling of twin screw machine geometry. The modelling of the thermodynamics and fluid flow through such machines is then given, together with how this is used to predict their performance. Finally a detailed description is given of systems currently used or projected both for direct expansion of the source fluid and by recovery of heat from it, which includes those which are particularly suited to the use of screw expanders in place of turbines.

The 4 Day Diet

St.Martin's Press

Diets are made to go “on” and “off of”, and if you’re like most people—who want to be fit, lean, alert and healthy—you don’t want to diet. You want to eat naturally and normally, in a way that helps you have the body and lifestyle you deserve to enjoy. In EAT, Dr. Ian Smith has created a blueprint for you. It’s a flexible and intelligent plan you can follow every day, in every situation—eating out, working late, traveling, cooking for the holidays—and that will urge your body to perform at its peak. You’ll drop any excess pounds you need to lose. You won’t worry about what you “can” and “can’t” eat, but will listen to yourself and eat smart.
Dr. Ian’s Ten Simple Rules for Good Eating tell you what the experts know:
--Follow the Rainbow: if you eat color, you’re getting vitamins and minerals in the right package --Carb Heaven: don’t ban carbohydrates—or any nutrient group! --The Whole Truth About Whole Grains: they may not be what you think they are, and you should be eating them all the time --Feel Full Fiber: it’s magic at every meal --Protein Bonanza: all proteins aren’t equal --Spicetopia: 5 of the tastiest and healthiest spices in the world --Size Matters: how to portion, and secret calories you don’t know about --You are What You Drink: the miracle liquid and drinks that can wash out good eating --Unearthing the Organic Truth: it’s not always healthier --The Power of Snacks: they can help you lose weight! 
Cut to the chase with Dr. Ian’s EAT Plan at the end of each chapter, or become your own expert by reading from start to finish. Either way, EAT is not about denial. It’s about permission….to live, to fuel your strong body, to eat!

Happiness

Men don't have glass heads. What's going on in there? Do they mean what they say? And what are they not saying? Why does anyone in a relationship with a man have to spend so much time wondering what things "mean"? Is it good that he called instead of texting? What does it mean that he introduced me to his sister but not his mother or his best friend? Why hasn't he said anything about my birthday yet when it's two weeks from now?
Finally, a man who knows what's going on in there has written a book to decode men for you. It's rich with insight and action you can take today to make your relationship better tomorrow. Smith's fascinating, sometimes surprising topics include:
--The Subtle Art of Hooking Us (men really do want to be in committed relationships, even if they don't always show it) 
--Beauty Matters (but beauty may not be exactly what you think it is)
--Beware of Titles (why you shouldn't label yourself his "girlfriend" until certain conditions are met) 
--Sex is More Powerful than an AK-47 (but it doesn't always have to be a home run)
--Mean What You Say (and why sex lies are always―always―a bad idea)
--Know how to Listen and What we Care About (it doesn't matter if you buy the yellow pillows or the blue pillows but that doesn't mean you don't matter)
 Any man who picks up The Truth About Men will nod in agreement, and any woman who puts its insights into practice will have an instantly happier mate and a stronger, longer relationship.
