Matthew 25:40 GOODREADS: A triumph An ultimately joyous book about a woman saving the life of an orphaned, baby wild bird when all the odds were against it. My heart sang. Tears were shed. And I flat out fell in love with little Kiki just like Marja did. And when she had to let Kiki go, I was equally as devastated. But, soaring with joy at the end, life doesn't get any better than this. GOODREADS: Being an animal lover, this was the most heartfelt book I'd ever read. Crying and laughing are one thing. Your life getting changed by the experience is quite another. I'll never look at a wild bird quite the same way ever again. I'll love them as much as Marja does now. Kiki, an abandoned baby blackbird, is sure he's a majestic eagle. Though his bond with Marja, a loving bird whisperer, is strong, he refuses to see the harsh realities of befriending eagle predators. The time coming all too soon to be released into their fierce wilderness, Kiki must say goodbye to everything he cherishes most. To his dream of becoming a patriotic eagle. To the only home he's ever known. And to the adoptive mother he can't quite leave behind. His parting gift to Marja-a miracle witnessed long after it's too late for her to believe. Written with a Christian worldview, KIKI AND THE BIRD WHISPERER is based on the true story of an impossible love between a wildlife rehabber harpist and an abandoned nestling grackle. The baby bird's secret words revealed only in the book, each chapter comes to life in a free companion video at marjahealy's Youtube channel. Uplifting and funny, KIKI, the humble baby blackbird with the big aspirations, is a touching experience not easily forgotten. But one with the happiest of endings.

Hurricane Maria magnified Puerto Rico's fragile system for delivering social, behavioral, and environmental health services, which were evidenced by chronic disease burdens, demographic transitions, and unmet health needs. The recovery plan outlines action strategies for building a robust health infrastructure, strengthening the health care workforce, expanding social service capacity, and investing in healthy communities.
The general objective of the research is to analyze the most relevant actions developed by the Project with regard to sustainability. It is relevant to the health insurance company, as it will enhance its image both inside and outside the organization. In terms of methodology, the project in question is classified as qualitative and quantitative in nature, exploratory and descriptive in nature in terms of objectives, and was carried out through a case study. Initially, a bibliographical survey was carried out, along with visits to the company in order to get to know its working methods and analyze the sustainable actions developed by the company during the process. Questionnaires were drawn up and distributed to the project's employees. It can be seen that the company is on the right track in terms of considering the environmental variable as part of its organizational activities. In this way, the sustainable actions developed by the Project meet the real needs of the environment, but they should be shared more with the company's other employees, as well as with the general administration and the local community.
This book examines global health as a foreign policy issue in Germany, exploring its entanglement with security and economic concerns. Based on an ethnography at the German Federal Foreign Office (FFO) during Covid-19, it explores the emergence of this policy field, its variations in the pandemic moment, and the coordination of vaccine donations as a case study. With global health as a growing concern for governments’ security and foreign policies and a corresponding academic interest in these developments, this book offers detailed insights into the German context. Germany has been denoted a latecomer but increasingly important actor in global health – and this book focuses on the assemblage of global health and foreign policy in this setting. The unique observation of Covid-19 in the German FFO highlights the crisis as exceptional and non-exceptional at the same time, making visible gaps in global health structures more generally. The vaccine donations during Covid-19 illustrate problematizations and technologies of global health as entangled with security and economic concerns. For anyone interested in global health, both in academia and “in the field”, this book provides insights into governmental cooperation in the area of global health and foreign policy prior to and during a crisis, and allows for conclusions for further developments and/or future crisis moments.
Omega-3 fatty acids are known to be beneficial supplements and can benefit one's health. This book is an updated thesis that was presented to Clayton College of Natural Health in 2004 and discusses the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids in inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. In addtion to explaining what these substances are and how they work in the human body, actual studies are discussed that show the benefits that these fatty acids may have in cases of IBD and IBS. Anti-inflammatory properties as well as changes in serotonin signalling with the use of omega-3's are discussed as well as the dangers of taking medications for these disorders. The omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to have many benefits in inflammatory conditions and may be useful supplements in the treatment of these digestive disorders.
