The problem with most personal finance and investing books is that they complicate simple ideas and contain so much detail nobody ever actually reads them. Beer Money is different. It can be read in an afternoon and presents financial concepts using something you're already familiar with: Beer. Beer Money is organized as a "Pub Crawl to Financial Success." Each chapter is a clear, actionable step with guidance on financial decisions you may face. Excruciating detail such as valuation metrics for stocks, estate planning, complicated options strategies, etc. are NOT part of this book. Beer Money is written for anyone who wants the basic building blocks of personal finance and investing.You'll learn the differences between investing in stocks, bonds, real estate and commodities. You'll see how to best use a retirement plan like a 401(k), how to budget better and the importance of insurance. There are examples of different investment portfolios, automatic saving and spending plans and a discussion about the different types of investment accounts such as Traditional and Roth IRA's. The use of beer, easy to understand text and pictures (yes, pictures ) and humor make this a book you will actually read and understand. So grab a cold six pack and a comfortable chair and get started on your own pub-crawl to financial security. Cheers
Mainstream addiction science sees addiction either as a biomedical disease that renders one incapable of self-control or as a voluntary practice engaged in freely. In On Addiction, Darin Weinberg shows how this dynamic is deeply influenced by a series of binaries (free will/determinism, mind/body, objectivity/subjectivity) that hinder our understanding of addiction. Here, he offers a new theorization of addiction in which he breaks down these contradictions and incompatibilities, calling into question the taken-for-granted distinction between the “biological” and the “social.” To the extent that it is understood as a loss of self-control over one’s behavior, addiction, Weinberg contends, requires a supple theoretical framework that provides for movements into and out of self-control, for the social and natural processes that influence these movements, for the historical contexts within which they occur, and for the ethical ramifications of taking them seriously. To create this framework, Weinberg brings together history, ethnography, and critical theory as well as the clinical and social sciences. In this way, Weinberg takes a more holistic approach to examining the fundamental nature and ethics of addiction.

Little Sister Small is a short story written for my children, one in particular who suffered with chronic illness until the age of fifteen.
Little Sister Small is a short story written for my children, one in particular who suffered with chronic illness until the age of fifteen.
She was perfect in every sense of the word. 22 years ago, I was 15 years old and scared in a new High School. She was a Senior and lovingly confident. I say that not with a mature sense, but rather with a teenage, na ve sense. She was remarkable and so confusing to me at the same time. My first crush wrapped up in a green sports jacket. We were in Choir together and just looking at her sing made me speechless. I didn't understand these new feelings I was having, even though they felt ooh, so right. I never spoke a word to her and her the same. She had a boyfriend and freshman didn't talk to upperclassman... it's just the way it was then. Little did I know she would soon become my first crush of my long, tumultuous teenage life. I soon began to want to go to the school just to see her sing and hopefully catch a glimpse of her outside of the Choir hallway. She was mysterious and yet so lovely... and as quickly as I grew accustomed to seeing her and crushing on her, was as quickly as she Graduated and left my life. Fast forward 22 years. These poems represent the account of a simple teenage love long ago and the subsequent meeting and attempt at a relationship years after the High School experience. The poems are presented here in a time line fashion as they were originally written. As the relationship progressed and eventually hit it's downturn, the Poems directly reflect this as well. We tried, and failed miserably... years of life had taken it's toll on our innocence and us in general. She still, to this day, is difficult for me to discuss... our relationship that failed years later took away my childhood innocence and robbed me of the first crush years prior. It's difficult to take sometimes and of course, forgetting about it isn't an option. I love her... always have and always will. Hope you enjoy this life retrospect of this special section to my life that I hold very close and dear to my heart.
