Paperback. Zustand: Good. THE VISION BOARD BOK provides a way to create your vision board in a book, in which you envision what you want and decide what action steps to take to get it. But instead of creating your vision on a large board, usually about 24x36, you create it in an 8 1/2x11 book. The advantage of this approach is that you can take this book with you wherever you go and look at it whenever you want. You can also readily share this book with others, and you can take a photo of the pages or turn your book into a PDF and share that, too. Plus, with a book you can add in comments, add pages, and otherwise expand on your original vision. It is also easier to carry around. In fact, you can readily create a series of vision boards every year or every few months, so you can both see where you are going and where you have been. Perhaps think of this book like a visual journal or diary in which you record your hopes and dreams and later look back from time to time. But now you have a separate book which you can focus on each day and use to keep track of how you are doing, as well as motivate you to go after and make real what you want.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. When E. B. White said analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog; few people are interested and the frog dies, he hadn't seen Al Gini's hilarious, incisive, and informative take on jokes, joke-telling, and the jokers who tell jokes. For Gini, humor is more than just foolish fun: it serves as a safety valve for dealing with reality that gives us the courage to endure that which we cannot understand or avoid. Not everyone tells jokes. Not everyone gets a joke, even a good one. But, Gini argues, joke-telling can act as both a sword and a shield to defend us from reality. As the late, great stand-up comic Joan Rivers put it: 'If you can laugh at it, you can live with it ' This book is for anyone who enjoys a good laugh, but also wants to know why.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Dismissed by the police as mere adjuncts to or gofers for male gangs, girl gang members are in fact often as emotionally closed off and dangerous as their male counterparts. Carrying razor blades in their mouths and guns in their jackets for defense, they initiate drive-by shootings, carry out car jackings, stomp outsiders who stumble onto or dare to enter the neighborhood, viciously retaliate against other gangs and ferociously guard their home turf. But Sikes also captures the differences that distinguish girl gangs-abortion, teen pregnancy and teen motherhood, endless beatings and the humiliation of being forced to have sex with a lineup of male gangbangers during initiation, haphazardly raising kids in a household of drugs and guns with a part-time boyfriend off gangbanging himself. Veteran journalist Gini Sikes spends a year in the ghettos following the lives of several key gang members in South Central Los Angeles, San Antonio, and Milwaukee. In 8 Ball Chicks, we discover the fear and desperate desire for respect and status that drive girls into gangs in the first place--and the dreams and ambitions that occasionally help them to escape the catch-22 of their existence.…

Zustand: Good. Sci-fi action meets steamy paranormal romance in the Alien novels, as Katherine Kitty Katt faces off against aliens, conspiracies, and deadly secrets. - Futuristic high-jinks and gripping adventure. --RT Reviews It's a typical day of bureaucracy and stress for President and First Lady Jeff and Kitty Katt-Martini, in part because Kitty's been tapped to represent Earth in the Galactic Council. Kitty feels that's a bad idea, and she might be right. When her first official TV morning show goes awry, it's only the quick thinking of the actor determined to make the Code Name: First Lady movie a reality that saves the day. It also forces Kitty to work with Hollywood. Meanwhile, the Embassy Daycare kids are all about to enter real school--and none of them want to go. They may have grounds to be concerned because many of the other students and their familes seem shady, and everyone seems to have an evil agenda. Dealing with the assimilation of the aliens who have come to Earth, while fending off advances from a variety of Hollywood types, seems like Kitty's biggest challenge. But then she and Jeff discover that Stephanie Valentino--Jeff's niece and the true Heir Apparent to the original Mastermind--is back. Can Jeff and Kitty thwart the most insidious attacks yet, while keeping tenuous peace on Earth and goodwill toward all sentient species going? And can they also find time to be part of the most truly terrifying organization they've ever encountered--the school's parent-teacher association.…
