Tyler & His Solve-a-matic Machine: - 2nd Edition- Disney's Prestigious iParenting Media Winner (2007) Future Business Leaders' Series(TM)
"A child who masters the fundamentals of entrepreneurship sets the foundation for his success; a community that fosters this education exponentially increases prosperity, freedom and peace for all." The Future Business Leaders' Series(TM) is a set of fun and fiction adventure books that introduce pre-teens to the concepts of business and entrepreneurship. The message crosses all geographic, gender, racial and socioeconomic lines by empowering kids to reach for their dreams while learning real life lessons. The lessons covered in the series can make all the difference in a kid's future: the importance of dreaming big, protecting an idea, fighting doubts, building self-esteem, hiring the right people, finding the right real estate, listening to customers, branding, knowing the competition, networking, and achieving success. Tyler's peers are other children of the city of Nessibus with various skills and talents whose stories of becoming business leaders are told in separate books. These stories make up the Future Business Leaders' Series(TM). The plots of the various books interweave as the characters become suppliers, customers, and referrals for one another, emphasizing the power of networking and its influence over one's business success. "Bouani brilliantly takes a potentially dry subject as entrepreneurship and communicates its basic principles in a fun and entertaining way. As the founder of the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship and one of the leading experts on youth entrepreneurship education, I know how complicated this subject can be for children. Unlike many financial or business books written for children, this one approaches kids at their level with an engaging story and plenty of mystery & suspense. She actually gets kids excited about becoming entrepreneurs themselves, and that's an amazing accomplishment. In addition, it is a wonderful introduction to free-market capitalism. It should be a part of American school curricula and every family's library, because it sets the basic foundation that every kid needs to build a successful future." Steve Mariotti Founder of the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) "As an organization that focuses on teaching young people about entrepreneurship, parents frequently ask us for additional resources they can use at home. Tyler & His Solve-a-Matic Machine is an easy, fun way for parents to spark and foster children's entrepreneurial spirit. Children relate to the engaging characters and understand that they too can make their dreams into reality." Jack Harris - President, Junior Achievement of Georgia "Tyler and His Solve-a-matic Machine" is an enjoyable adventure study that aims to introduce children to some of the basic concepts of capitalism. The book is well-written and deserves a wide audience." David Gordon - Fellow, Van Mises Institute "Jennifer very elegantly builds on the theme "entrepreneurs are the best at making their dreams come true", and takes young readers on delightful and entertaining journey through the challenges, rewards and perils of entrepreneurship. I have learned from my own experience, and through my research, that entrepreneurs can be made - it is simply a matter of education and motivation. This book provides both the education and motivation to children." Vivek Wadhwa - Columnist for BusinessWeek.com - Fellow with the Labor and Worklife Program at Harvard Law School and executive in residence/adjunct professor at the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University -Visiting scholar at University of California at Berkeley "Entrepreneurship is the backbone of our economy, yet entrepreneurship is not a subject kids are actively taught. That is what makes Bouani's series so important. She is teaching kids about an important concept and delivers valuable lessons in a fun and engaging way. The series prepares kids for the changing economy and gets them excited about entrepreneurship." Natalie MacNeil - Founder of SheTa

The World's Most Prestigious Prize: The Inside Story of the Nobel Peace Prize is a fascinating, insider account of the Nobel peace prize. Drawing on unprecedented access to the Norwegian Nobel Institute's vast archive, it offers a gripping account of the founding of the prize, as well as its highs and lows, triumphs and disasters, over the last one-hundred-and-twenty years. But more than that, the book also draws on the author's unique insight during his twenty-five years as Director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute and Secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee. It reveals the real story of all the laureates of that period - some of them among the most controversial in the history of the prize (Gorbachev, Arafat, Peres and Rabin, Mandela and De Klerk, Obama, and Liu Xiaobo) - and exactly why they came to receive the prize. Despite all that has been written about the Nobel Peace Prize, this is the first-ever account written by a prominent insider in the Nobel system.

Tricks: A breakdown of the good, the bad, and the ugly aspects of my sixty-five night ordeal dancing in Detroit's most prestigious strip club
Desperation is a tricky, indescribable concept. A desperate person finds themselves bending morals and taking unnecessary risk in the face of its enormity, only to shame themselves for the behavior they've indulged in after the desperation has passed. The desperation I felt in loom of an $80,000 student loan and accumulating bills that required immediate payment was something that I had never experienced. It was consuming. And it was dangerous.

The Meaning of the Vetusta Ecclesia for the New Prestige of Glastonbury Abbey According to William of Malmesbury's de Antiquitate Glastonie Ecclesie
Essay from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,7, Catholic University Eichst tt-Ingolstadt, course: Die normannische Eroberung Englands (1066), language: English, abstract: To be busy with the history of Glastonbury Abbey, you have to differentiate between the early history and the time after the Norman conquest. Especially on closer inspection of the early history a big problem takes place: All traditions like architecture, written and painted sources have been destroyed by the big fire of 1184. That is why the today known early history of Glastonbury Abbey is only based on myths and sources that had been written after the fire. The most important is the "De Antiquitate Glastonie Ecclesie" by William of Malmesbury.
The Costly U. S. Prison System: Too Costly in Dollars, National Prestige, and Lives
The prison system in the U.S. is in crisis. We have far too many prisoners and spend far too much on housing them and building more prisons. We have far too harsh penalties for less serious nonviolent crimes, so we are unnecessarily incarcerating people who could be productive citizens, and destroying families in the process.In THE COSTLY U.S. PRISON SYSTEM: TOO COSTLY IN TERMS OF DOLLARS, NATIONAL PRESTIGE AND LIVES, author Paul Brakke provides a careful, close-up look from a conservative perspective of what's wrong with the prison system and how to fix it. The key topics covered include these: - a recent history of incarceration in the U.S. - facts about our prisons and correctional system - how other countries deal with prisons and recidivism - the tendency of a convicted criminal to reoffend - how one U.S. state and one U.S. city have dealt with prisons and recidivism - ways to reduce recidivism - ways to reduce incarceration and cut costsThis important book summarizes much of what has been written on the subject by academics who use inscrutable terminology and have failed to offer practical solutions. It provides many new suggestions for reducing our bloated prison system and its excessive costs.
