There is an abundance of information on how to start your own business or become an entrepreneur. However, although much of what businesspersons describe may apply to the problems facing a dietitian who starts a private practice, applied knowledge specific to the nutrition arena is lacking. This book gives a dietitian's view of private practice and entrepreneurialism. The text follows the practical stages that occur in the development of an entrepreneurial venture. Actual experiences of practitioners, as well as questions commonly asked at over 60 private practice seminars and lectures conducted since 1979, are highlighted.

Common Threads of Teenage Grief

ABC-TV's Nightline introduced millions of viewers to Laura, her husband, Joe, and her health care team when covering the Terri Schiavo story in 2003. The viewer response was so strong, it produced a second program on Laura and Joe's guidelines for dying "a good death." The authors want American families and health care providers to begin a dialog about death and dying issues and have individuals reclaim responsibility for their end-of-life decisions. Today, we hear about living wills and Terri Schiavo's "true" last wishes. Laura Schmidt was a 51-year-old medical writer and hospice volunteer pursuing a master's in the study of death and dying when she was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. Laura had very strong opinions about improving how people die in our present society. She began writing this book to share her expertise with other patients, their families, and health care providers. Laura and Joe are proponents of patient's rights, health care power of attorney, and changes in health care. After her death, Joe added his story and guidelines for caregivers. Together they empower others to make wise decisions, document them, and discuss them with family members in order to achieve "a good death." "I have seen a few 'good deaths.' But more often, I have been appalled by the many 'bad deaths' in our society-those where key issues such as inadequate pain management, ignored patient wishes, loneliness and isolation have dictated a dying patient's final days and minutes...death is no longer seen as a 'beautiful ritual.'"

The Beach Club is fiction, but every principle scene in it is real. There are strong action scenes surrounded by equally strong scenes of police humor and wit. The novel is a frolic of maverick and freewheeling cops in their quest to identify and apprehend a sexual predator, internal challenges of morality and commitment as well as overcoming interference by department administrators Officer Vincent Patrone, Detective Ray Depietro, and the rest of the Eden Valley Police swing shift are plunged into the midst of the pursuit for a serial rapist that plagues the California city. To compound matters, Lt. Alex Santos, a headhunting-backstabbing administrator who is pursuing the chief's job, exploits the mishaps of the shift to use to his advantage. Despite Santos' belief that the shift is out of control, they are actually a group of high performers who in the end, identify and capture the rapist. Richard Paloma reveals a behind the scenes look at the dark humor and aggravations of being a uniformed police officer. He uses his years of experience as a patrol officer and police detective to capture the camaraderie, challenges, and internal politics within law enforcement today. The Beach Club will keep you entertained start to finish as you get to know the members of the Eden Valley Police Department
