Caseins constitute about 80% of the total proteins of cow’s milk. They occur as caseins, whey proteins, enzymes, minor proteins and nitrogen compounds. Milk proteins are a heterogeneous group of polymeric compounds that have a wide range of different molecular structures and properties.

For some reason, I especially had trouble with the word the. I spent most of the first grade in the caboose. If we missed the word, we had to go to the caboose. The teacher held up a spelling flashcard for us to identify the word. We lined up our miniature wooden chairs in a row like a choo-choo train. But first grade only confirmed my greatest fear: I was “not enough.” Just 6 years old, I’d skipped off to school with a new box of crayons, a Swiss polka-dotted dress, and fresh hope that I would be smart. “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)Īs soon as my first-grade teacher held up that initial spelling flashcard, I knew I was in trouble. And I certainly didn’t expect it to happen with this novel it’s mostly crime thrillers which have that effect on me. It has been a while since a book has captured me to the extent that I read through the night. Talk about being cut off! Unsettled Ground explores what happens, when the mother dies and the twins have to learn to cope with life on their own. She doesn’t have a phone, a bank account or a computer. Whereas Julius takes the odd job to help out, Jeanie can’t read or write and is always being extra protected due to her heart condition. They have to a large extent been protected from the harsh realities of life, living in their little cottage, playing music and growing the garden. Anyway, let’s get to the book.Īt 51 years old, twins Jeanie and Julius still live at home with their mother, Dot. I also learned, Claire has a cat which seemingly sleeps a lot and The Vanishing Half is on her shelves. Music plays a large role in Unsettled Ground and apparently one of her son’s songs inspired the music played in the book. It was a very homely affair with Claire’s husband moderating the discussion and her son playing on the guitar. But during lockdown, online discussions with authors have become a thing and when I stumbled across the launch event for Claire Fuller’s Unsettled Ground, I decided to join in. Normally, I know very little about the authors I read. Admittedly, it may have not been easy to balance depth and breadth, especially given the book's aim. Some essays emphasize depth over breadth whereas others stress breadth over depth. The aim of the book is "to make Sartre's broader body of work accessible to a wider audience" (3). There is some overlap among the essays, but that is inevitable given the interconnectedness of Sartre's concepts. Each stands alone even if each of them builds off of the previous essay. The three parts roughly correspond to Sartre's early, middle, and late periods, respectively. The volume is divided into three parts - Part I: Psychology, Psychoanalysis and Literature, Part II: Ontology: Freedom, Authenticity and Self-Creation, and Part III: Ethics and Politics. This is a collection of scrupulously written essays by contemporary Sartre scholars seeking to explain, as the title suggests, Sartre's fundamental concepts. 'Such a good book and so richly warrants the Fleabag reference. It's unforgettable.' India Knight, The Times I loved it so much that I stalked the author on social media - a first. its beautifully understated, airy style conceals the fiercest intelligence.

New York Times I have a feeling my much-underlined paperback has changed hands a dozen times by now Sorrow and Bliss is too good to hang on to. 'As soon as I finished Mason's tragically funny debut novel, I gave it to a friend, bookmark and all.

Alex, the snarky and funny MC we all need.Every time I revisit Alex’s world, it’s a delight, and even if I’m more critical at 22 than I was at 8 or 9 when I started reading this series, it still has a HUGE place in my heart.

Unless I’ve royally messed up my timings, I’ll be re-reading and reviewing one of the Alex Rider books a week until Nightshade, book 11 in the main series, is in my hands. “I’m going to sit here and hope he survives.”Īs soon as I started my blog I knew I had to do an Alex Rider series, so I’ve been planning out this post collection from the start. “You’re just going to sit here and watch him kill himself?” “The boy’s quite mad,” the woman retorted.

The first twenty lines describe an imaginary scene in which an unnamed woman is struck by grief remembering an absent companion, Atthis the remaining 17 lines, possibly originally a separate poem, reflects more generally on the foolishness of trying to compare human and divine beauty. 37 lines of the fragment are preserved on a 6th-century parchment.
