Are you seeking self-awareness? Have you wondered what does discipline precedes dominion mean? Have you just begun to comprehend that you always get what you ask for - you really do create your reality. If any one of these questions has ever made you stop and think - perhaps want to talk to someone about you thoughts ... then Carolin Myss's audio IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST. Thought provoking, easy to understand, funny and specific. It just doesn't get any better than this when it comes to your journey into self-awareness.

This is a writer with so much heart! I wouldn't live off the land if you held a gun to my head, yet I was deeply inspired by this woman's life and work. Tatelbaum presents her unusual lifestyle--she's a longtime homesteader--as a metaphor for creativity: both its curses and its pleasures. A wonderful book, especially if you're a writer or painter or musician--someone who knows how hard it is to keep going in the face of rejection.

Linda Tatelbaum has a real gift with language- of taking the most mundane tasks of ordinary country life and transforming them into something that provides tremendous meaning and inspiration. The format of the book- much like a college curricula- is both stimulating and progressively enriching. One does not need to be a "homesteader" or "back to the lander" to appreciate the true meaning of "moving rocks"

Never having had an interest in traditional poetry, Bud Osborn has opened my eyes to a new art form. He writes of (and for) people who've never felt safe: chronic drug-users, prostitutes, the mentally ill, and all other outcasts. His poetry encourages you to shed any prior conceptions you might have of "failures" and see how beautiful these people really are. These poems really touched me.

Because of the long lead times in book publishing, by the time this book went to press, the dot-com bust was happening, however much of the information in this book is still very relevant and applicable.

When I was asked to contribute, I was already predicting that there would be sweeping changes within the high-tech industry and choose my contributions accordingly, focusing on ERP, cross-platform databases and Internet security samples as areas that would continue to be relevant beyond the dot-com boom.

The advice given by Jay and Michael as well as all of my colleagues' samples in this book are highly polished and continue to be relevant models for any individual pursuing a career in high-tech, in my opinion.

This book was very useful. The resume examples were helpful, but the best thing I saw was the tactical tips on how to use the resume, how to network, what to say, how to use career fairs and on-campus recruiting, alumni, etc. Gave me some good ideas. In fact, I did something in networking at a job fair that they wrote about in a case study that got me a good interview.

Quilting designs in a large variety of variations with some traditional ones included all with great color samples. Included with the full size templates are shaded greys of the pattern for ease in chosing your own masterpiece. Twisting and twirling the log shapes gives some spectacular results. An easy method for piecing tops it off. Now I have to decide which one to try first. The way it's layed out makes each block a very do-able project. Good for beginners as well as the pros.

In recent years we have learnt that to understand our style thoroughly we have to go beyond our style; but in so doing we can find the effective self defence principles that were there all along. So practitioners of karate, tae kwon do, kung fu and so on are realizing that their kata and even basic kihon can make sense as self defence -in a way they never did as "traditionally" taught - if we have the eyes to see what they could be. Because at this stage in the evolution of our arts this is largely a process of reverse engineering, the sticking point is having the range of conceptual tools to see what the moves could be. Having trained with Rick Clark regularly on his seminars in the UK, I was always struck by how someone could show him some piece of kata from their style, and Rick could see immediately a number of interesting and worthwhile applications. He has taken that vision of his and inspected one of the most basic movements in many styles - the down block. What comes out is a wealth of ideas - just the inspiration the modern practitioner needs to understand his art. Any one person should reject many of the ideas and accept only a few for regular training, so that what they take fits in most coherently with what else they use for other movements in their kata etc. But each student will select something different, and so seeing a wide range of possiblities is invaluable for guiding one to create one's own personal self defence system. Presented here are many principles of jujutsu, arnis and kyusho jutsu applied to a simple move of karate, illustrating the fundamental unity of all styles. It's a book I will return to many times.

In The ABCs Of Building Better Boards, non-profit organizations consultant Jean Block draws upon her more than 30 years of experience to present a handy, effective, spiral-bound, and "user friendly" primer on the art of recruiting for, planning, organizing, and running more effective corporate boards. From making the most of an annual planning retreat, to structuring committees for maximum efficiency, to the importance of recognizing jobs well done, The ABCs of Building Better Boards is a very highly recommended primer for employees at an level of middle management and above, whether the corporation is a for-profit or a non-profit organization.

If you want to test for your A.B. ticket, buy and read both of these books (1&2). They are the best I've seen or heard about. Some old sailors told me about them, I used them and passed.
