Windows XP Home Edition! I Didn't Know You Could Do That... - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: I got really excited when I first heard about the concept of this book; a book that covers all the cool things about Windows XP that the reader didn’t know were already there. It meant I didn’t have to write about the Start button and how to click on it, but instead I got to dive right into the fun and hidden aspects of Windows XP. Then came my dilemma: What do you not already know and what are you going to think is cool? Well, I have no idea what you know and what you don’t. So, I had to think of my friend Molly, who is a typical computer user in my mind. And I’m also thinking of me. I choose to write about things that Molly and I would think were cool. Then I passed the outline to Chris Denny, my editor, and if he didn’t ever say, “Well, that’s stupid,” then it got into the book. (By the way, he did say, “Well, that’s stupid,” a few times.) Finally, Dan, my husband, got involved. And hence began, “God, Sandy. That’s dumb, how about if you write about this instead?” And so this book was born. I did try to be practical. My criteria for the book fell under two categories: fun and productive. Through lots of reader mail, I’ve found that people really just want to get their work done, but they’re also using the computer more and more for the fun things like music and pictures. Basically, no one wants to be a computer guru who can take a computer apart and put it back together again, blindfolded. I can’t do that. Neither can Molly or Chris, so I have to assume you can’t either and that, moreover, you don’t want to. So, I suppose that’s a long-winded explanation of how I choose the sub- jects that would be in this book. Molly, Chris, Dan, and I liked the topics, and we all think you may like them too
Eat What You Kill: The Fall of a Wall Street Lawyer - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: "A wonderful character study of someone whose cognitive dissonance ('I am brilliant, therefore I must be doing everything correctly') led directly to his downfall. Students would do well to read this book before venturing forth into a large firm, a small firm, or any pressure-cooker environment."-Nancy Rapoport, University of Houston Law Center"Eat What You Kill is gripping and well written. . . . It weaves in academic commentary and understanding of professional ethics issues in a way that makes it accessible to everyone."-Frank Partnoy, University of San Diego Law SchoolHe had it all, and then he lost it. But why did he do it, risking everything-wealth, success, livelihood, freedom, and the security of family? Eat What You Kill is the story of John Gellene, a rising star and bankruptcy partner at one of Wall Street's most venerable law firms. But when Gellene became entangled in a web of conflicting corporate and legal interests involving one of his clients, he was eventually charged with making false statements, indicted, found guilty of a federal crime, and sentenced to prison. Milton C. Regan Jr. uses Gellene's case to prove that such conflicting interests are now disturbingly commonplace in the world of American corporate finance. Combining a journalist's eye with sharp psychological insight, Regan spins Gellene's story into a gripping drama of fundamental tensions in modern-day corporate practice and describes in perfect miniature the inexorable confluence of the interests of American corporations and their legal counselors. This confluence may seem natural enough, but because these law firms serve many masters-corporations, venture capitalists, shareholder groups-it has paradoxically led to deep, pervasive conflicts of interest. Eat What You Kill gives us the story of a man trapped in this labyrinth, and reveals the individual and systemic factors that contributed to Gellene's demise.

Live Your Dreams... Let Reality Catch Up: NLP and Common Sense for Coaches, Managers and You - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: "If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it." -William Arthur Ward How many of us live our lives according to others expectations? How many of us have put our lives on hold to accommodate a spouse (current or past), our parents, our children, someone who is needier than us, for our job... How many of us wander through life, with one day the same as the next with little passion for living or purpose in life? How many of us know we could do better, if only we knew how to communicate – with ourselves and with others? Live Your Dreams... Let Reality Catch Up helps you discover who you are, what really motivates you and provides you with the knowledge and tools for you to choose what you want in life. It all begins with communication – the conversation you have with yourself and then the conversation you have with someone else. Do you tell yourself how wonderful you are or do you focus on how things can go wrong, that you do not deserve to succeed? After you have had this conversation with yourself, how does this affect the conversation you have with someone else? And once more do you prove yourself right? And settle for less than you deserve? NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the subject of this book, has helped thousands to discover their own potential, is it your turn? Are you ready? This book does not pretend to know what is best for you, nor will it tell you how you should live your life. It provides a Toolkit for Transformation and is the Life Manual you didn’t get when you were born! It’s all about recognizing you have choice, you are always choosing. You have the choice of ‘continuing to do what you have always done and get the same results, or you can choose to do something different.
You or Someone Like You - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Anne Rosenbaum leads a life of quiet Los Angeles privilege, the wife of Hollywood executive Howard Rosenbaum and mother of their seventeen-year-old son, Sam. Years ago Anne and Howard met studying litera-ture at Columbia—she, the daughter of a British diplo-mat from London, he a boy from an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn. Now on sleek blue California evenings, Anne attends halogen-lit movie premieres on the arm of her powerful husband. But her private life is lived in the world of her garden, reading books. When one of Howard's friends, the head of a studio, asks Anne to make a reading list, she casually agrees—though, as a director reminds her, "no one reads in Hollywood." To her surprise, they begin calling: screen-writers; producers, from their bungalows; and agents, from their plush offices on Wilshire and Beverly. Soon Anne finds herself leading an exclusive book club for the industry elite. Emerging gradually from her seclu-sion, she guides her readers into the ideas and beauties of Donne, Yeats, Auden, and Mamet, with her brilliant and increasingly bold opinions. But when a crisis of identity unexpectedly turns an anguished Howard back toward the Orthodoxy he left behind as a young man, Anne must set out to save what she values above all else: her husband's love. At once fiercely intelligent and emotionally grip-ping, You or Someone Like You confronts the fault lines between inherited faith and personal creed, and, through the surprising transformation of one exceptional, unfor-gettable woman, illuminates literature's power to change our lives.

نویسندگان: خلاصه: Leslie Sanchez -- strategist, writer and political seer -- spent much of 2008 as an analyst on CNN, examining, investigating and deciphering the historic moment for women and politics that was the presidential election.
