Points of Health The Effectiveness and Safety of Acupuncture and Acupressure

Holistic medicine has a very special concern - preventing illness and maintaining health. While conventional medicine has a powerful arsenal of weapons to coax the ill body back to health, holistic medicine uses a wider range of therapies which reinforce the body's own defenses to restore balance. Acupuncture and Acupressure have over 4,500 years of recorded healings. This book explains how they work and why, for many kinds of health problems, it is a better healing approach than conventional Western medicine.

Irwin Tyler. To sum up, Acupressure care is a cost-effective alternative to the
management of many challenging health conditions. It is increasingly accepted

Kilometer 99

A Novel

Malia needs to leave El Salvador. A surfer and aspiring engineer, she came to Central America as a Peace Corps volunteer and fell in love with Ben. Malia's past year has been perfect: her weeks spent building a much-needed aqueduct in the countryside, and her weekends spent with Ben, surfing point-breaks in the nearby port city of La Libertad. Suddenly, a major earthquake devastates the country and brings an abrupt end to her work. Ben and Malia decide to move on. Now free of obligations, they have an old car, a wad of cash, surfboards, and rough plans for an epic trip through South America. Just as they're about to say goodbye to their gritty and beloved Salvadoran beach town, a mysterious American surfer known only as Pelochucho shows up—spouting grandiose plans and persuading them to stay. Days become weeks; documents go missing; money gets tight. Suddenly, Ben and Malia can't leave. Caught between bizarre real estate offers, suspect drug deals, and internal jealousies, this unlikely band of surfers, aid-workers, and opportunists all struggle to find their way through a fallen world, in Kilometer 99 by Tyler McMahon.

Had my kuleana been in Cara Sucia all along? Even that seems like an
oversimplification. I'm still as cynical as ever about development and relief. This
was more about finishing what I'd started, getting a baby-faced monkey off my
back.
