When Jim Sayre was a totally blind child growing up in Zanesville, Ohio, in the 1940s and '50s, blind children were typically steered into occupations caning chairs or tuning pianos. "Or selling pencils on street corners," Jim says. No way he was going to settle for that. With the help of a loving mother who saw the wisdom of integrating a blind child into the sighted world and Jim's own innate determination--he might call it stubbornness--Jim overcame the obstacles and prejudices blind children faced in those times. As an adult, with the support of his wife, Vicki, and their four children, he built an exemplary life of achievement and success in academia, state government, and the music business. Along the way, he managed to pack in a large share of fun, fine music, love, and laughter. Blind people like Jim who succeed in the sighted world must have extraordinary levels of determination, memory skills that put the sighted to shame, and an awesome drive to persevere and persevere--and persevere some more--while overcoming obstacles that you, you sighted person reading this now, can barely imagine. What does it take? How did Jim Sayre do it? Read Jimmy and be inspired by the human spirit of a person who insisted on developing his full potential despite the limits that society wanted to place on him.

Tony Salazar, a murderous thug who has devoted his life to the Guerra drug cartel, is suddenly questioning his loyalty. Tony seizes on his boss's poor decision to keep a video memento of a murder to seek out witness protection. Tony, whose biggest previous concern was killing competing drug dealers populating the California desert's meth land, must also protect a young girl named Xochil, who has unwittingly become a pawn in Tony's plan of betrayal to escape from the only life he has ever known, a hard-boiled life of meth manufacturing and murder. This thriller, set in California's Salton Sea, pits tough guy Tony against even tougher guys who view stomping out betrayal as the only form of revenge. The gradual transformation of Tony from the ruthless killer to a deliverer of justice is jolting, and the page-turning factor is guaranteed to kill your Friday night plans, if not your entire weekend. Brutal, blunt, and gritty, McConnell's "Saving Xochil" satisfies all fans of crime thriller fiction.

Remember when Sex and the City’s Carrie Bradshaw faced the brutal realization that she couldn’t buy her apartment because she’d already spent her money on a closet full of Manolos? Well, if Carrie had met Catey first, she’d own her co-op and be on her way to a comfortable retirement! Catey Hill is the online money expert for the Daily News Web site--and author of this humorous, practical "girlfriends guide” to personal finance for 20- and 30-something females. (The ones with the designer shoes...and maxed-out credit cards.) With a hip, "I’ve been there” voice along with worksheets and exercises, she helps women evaluate why they spend, get out of debt, and create a savings and retirement plan that even allows for the occasional splurge. Among the topics she covers: student loans, car payments, investing, saving for a home, and more.

A midnight bike ride to Broome's dinosaur coast should have been the coolest night of their lives. Instead, fossil-mad Abba Lou, visiting Sydney nerd Jimmy Chadwick, and corporate rebel Damien East witness a hammer-murder...and the theft of four priceless stegosaur footprints. Now the killer wants their photos--and their silence. Chased from the shark-dark tides of Western Australia to the concrete forests of Sydney, the trio must out-smart smugglers, corrupt dealers and a curse-man's warning before the evidence--and they--vanish forever. Fast, funny and ferociously tense, Dinosaur Murder fuses teen camaraderie, real palaeo-facts and outback noir into an eco-thriller you won't put down.

What will your 100-year life look like? A new edition of the international bestseller, featuring a new preface 'Brilliant, timely, original, well written and utterly terrifying' Niall Ferguson Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread? Or can you see the potential for a more stimulating future as a result of having so much extra time? Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse – life expectancy is rising, final-salary pensions are vanishing, and increasing numbers of people are juggling multiple careers. Whether you are 18, 45 or 60, you will need to do things very differently from previous generations and learn to structure your life in completely new ways. The 100-Year Life is here to help. Drawing on the unique pairing of their experience in psychology and economics, Lynda Gratton and Andrew J. Scott offer a broad-ranging analysis as well as a raft of solutions, showing how to rethink your finances, your education, your career and your relationships and create a fulfilling 100-year life. · How can you fashion a career and life path that defines you and your values and creates a shifting balance between work and leisure? · What are the most effective ways of boosting your physical and mental health over a longer and more dynamic lifespan? · How can you make the most of your intangible assets – such as family and friends – as you build a productive, longer life? · In a multiple-stage life how can you learn to make the transitions that will be so crucial and experiment with new ways of living, working and learning? Shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award and featuring a new preface, The 100-Year Life is a wake-up call that describes what to expect and considers the choices and options that you will face. It is also fundamentally a call to action for individuals, politicians, firms and governments and offers the clearest demonstration that a 100-year life can be a wonderful and inspiring one.

Clifton Mortuary was Jeremy Taylor's fourth employer in his sixteen-year career in the death care industry. A well proportioned, fit and relatively handsome man, Jeremy was considered personable although sometimes hard to read. Working in a profession that had been reduced to a mere trade was depressing enough by itself. There was little room for imagination and creativity but Jeremy's dedication to serving families was tempered with enthusiasm and when possible, humor. His mundane career and life however, were destined to change when he met Rhonda. Some misappropriate delegation and poor judgement, mixed with bouts of mismanagement, would result in a traumatic mistake at the mortuary. The life-altering event would be instrumental in changing him and the slumbering industry forever. Beyond Final Arrangements provides an inside look at the death care business tempered with humor, sadness, romance, sex, conflict and lawsuits.
