Download or read book Double or Nothing written by Tom Breitling and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn had come of age at the end of the 20th century looking for an all-American adventure, they probably would've headed for Vegas. They'd have been hard-pressed to go on a wilder ride than the one taken by Tom Breitling and Tim Poster to the top of the famed Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino. Call them the Odds Couple. Breitling is the kid who lives next door if you grow up in Burnsville, Minnesota. He never saw a hundred dollar bill or The Godfather until he went to college. Poster comes from a family of oddsmakers who reach for the Doritos on football Sundays and scream for the point spread. He was whistling Sinatra and booking games at his Las Vegas high school. Their unlikely friendship began in college over an $8 veal parmigiana sandwich that led to a partnership in a hotel reservation business. Starting with a desk, a chair, a pillow, and a telephone, Tim and Tom grew a company that they sold during the dot.com boom for $105 million. This allows Tim to pursue his childhood dream of owning a casino and bringing back the glory days of Vegas. When Tim ups the odds and raises the limits to give gamblers the best game in town, a craps player nicknamed "Mr. Royalty," who's on one of the hottest winning streaks in history, heads for The Nugget. When he begins to take Tom and Tim for millions, the partnership is put to the test. But Tim refuses to back off on the odds or the high limits, telling his partner, "It's a ballsy proposition here. It's gonna be a roller coaster ride. But we don't have a public company to answer to. It's just you and me." When Mr. Royalty rolls twenty-two consecutive passes and rakes in a mountain of chips, he takes Tim and Tom to the brink. They must figure out a way to hold up The House. Just as they do, the roller coaster ride really gets rolling—and the ride becomes crazier than they'd ever imagined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Torn between her loyalty to her neo-nazi conspirators and her husband, Jane Polansky becomes riddled with guilt. Although she married Robert Polansky, head of Diamond Tech, to get at military secrets, she grows to love her husband, a man who espouses fine human qualities, unlike the hatred and misery which encompassed Jane's life. Stored in the same location as the secrets is the world famous Polansky diamond collection, sought after by organized criminals who will stop at nothing to get at those diamonds. Waiting in the background is a psychopath planning to strike out against the outsiders invading his tranquil community recently transformed into a high tech Mecca. Industrial espionage contributes to the plot by Breitling from Electropulse AG, a major world class weapons manufacture who also wants those diamond lens secrets. Amidst it all is the discovery in Siberia of the world's largest diamond and Robert Polansky's attempt to acquire it. At Breitling's refuge on Great Albacore Cay in the Bahamas, submarine deployed Navy SEALs plan a strike. Who will be victorious? Does Jane find the love and security she craves. Who eventually ends up with all the wealth? How will it all end? Readers are kept on edge. Love, hate, adultery, revenge, international intrigue, robbery, and murder all contribute to the suspense.

Download or read book Architecture in Existing Fabric written by Johannes Cramer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architectural work on existing structures has become enormously important in recent years. For the majority of architects, this is where future market opportunities will lie. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field and is thus addressed to all practitioners, students, and building sponsors whose interest goes beyond an initial encounter with this wideranging field of activity. Contradicting the conventional view that creative design work is the exclusive province of new building design, the authors offer a nuanced account of active and creative strategies for planning, design, and execution. Subjects considered range from town planning issues through the overall project cycle and its individual phases all the way to building management. Special focuses are the "grammar of design" as well as the issues arising through collaboration of different experts. In order to illuminate this broad and complex spectrum of topics, the book incorporates thirty examples of projects from Europe and North America, in which buildings from a huge variety of periods – from the Middle Ages to the 1960s – are transferred into the present.

Download or read book Flux written by David Soberman and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-12-05 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen a number of developments that threaten the very fabric of how marketing activities have traditionally been conducted. On one hand, consumers are increasingly socially networked and value-conscious, with heightened expectations of how companies will react to their demands. Along with the challenges, however, come new opportunities: the growth of behavioural economics and the emergence of new data collection techniques, for instance, give marketers unprecedented access to previously hidden aspects of consumer behavior. Clearly, ‘business as usual’ is not an option for marketing managers who want their firms to stay in the game. To help managers adapt to the rapidly changing business environment, Flux offers a collection of the very best thinking on key areas of marketing activity and decision-making. Each chapter is written by a leading expert in a specific ‘new’ marketing subject area, from managing brands to dealing with new media, and addresses substantive challenges in that area while providing steps for taking action. The book’s integrated approach makes it an excellent resource not only for marketing managers but any managers dealing with customers.
