Download or read book A More Beautiful Question written by Warren Berger and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To get the best answer-in business, in life-you have to ask the best possible question. Innovation expert Warren Berger shows that ability is both an art and a science. It may be the most underappreciated tool at our disposal, one we learn to use well in infancy-and then abandon as we grow older. Critical to learning, innovation, success, even to happiness-yet often discouraged in our schools and workplaces-it can unlock new business opportunities and reinvent industries, spark creative insights at many levels, and provide a transformative new outlook on life. It is the ability to question-and to do so deeply, imaginatively, and “beautifully.” In this fascinating exploration of the surprising power of questioning, innovation expert Warren Berger reveals that powerhouse businesses like Google, Nike, and Netflix, as well as hot Silicon Valley startups like Pandora and Airbnb, are fueled by the ability to ask fundamental, game-changing questions. But Berger also shares human stories of people using questioning to solve everyday problems-from “How can I adapt my career in a time of constant change?” to “How can I step back from the daily rush and figure out what really makes me happy?” By showing how to approach questioning with an open, curious mind and a willingness to work through a series of “Why,” “What if,” and “How” queries, Berger offers an inspiring framework of how we can all arrive at better solutions, fresh possibilities, and greater success in business and life.

Book excerpt: "A story of heartbreak, hope and healing... Grab a kleenex." —Bonnie Gallant, Agora Network Ministries, co-author of The Beautiful Strokes of God "...Nothing short of an amazing account of God's love and faithfulness." —Toni Schirico Horras, Area Co-ordinator at Safe Families for Children Greater Chicago Area What happens when a cardinal rule is broken? What if you're the one who breaks it? Can there be redemption? Is there hope? The sins of our fathers are long reaching. Joanie Brusseau knows what happens when cardinal rules are broken. As a kid she survived it—barely. It cost her everything. “Never hurt a child.” It’s a fundamental principle and now she’s broken it. Can she survive this too? What happens next is unexpected, perhaps miraculous. A chance encounter sets her on a journey of risk and adventure. Joanie’s story gives hope to all of us—people in bad shape, in deep trouble—to accomplish great things in the world.

Download or read book To Plead Our Own Cause written by Kevin Bales and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-09-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boys strapped to carpet looms in India, women trafficked into sex slavery across Europe, children born into bondage in Mauritania, and migrants imprisoned at gunpoint in the United States are just a few of the many forms slavery takes in the twenty-first century. There are twenty-seven million slaves alive today, more than at any point in history, and they are found on every continent in the world except Antarctica. To Plead Our Own Cause contains ninety-five narratives by slaves and former slaves from around the globe. Told in the words of slaves themselves, the narratives movingly and eloquently chronicle the horrors of contemporary slavery, the process of becoming free, and the challenges faced by former slaves as they build a life in freedom. An editors' introduction lays out the historical, economic, and political background to modern slavery, the literary tradition of the slave narrative, and a variety of ways we can all help end slavery today. Halting the contemporary slave trade is one of the great human-rights issues of our time. But just as slavery is not over, neither is the will to achieve freedom, "plead" the cause of liberation, and advocate abolition. Putting the slave's voice back at the heart of the abolitionist movement, To Plead Our Own Cause gives occasion for both action and hope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Carolina crew is back in this hometown series of hot romantic comedies. Continue the adventure here... The Game - Book 4 (Emerson and Gavin) The Way You Are - Book 5 (Liv and Brett) The Runaround - Book 6 (Ari and Jax) THE GAME They say opposites attract. Someone needs to tell that to Emerson Scott. GAVIN: All I ever wanted was to play ball. When an act of sheer stupidity took that dream away, I thought I’d never bounce back. But now I have the opportunity to coach an up-and-coming phenom, and I'm giving it all I've got. The fact that I've been lusting after his smoking-hot sister only sweetens the deal. Emerson may be buttoned up like a school librarian, but I play my best when I’m under pressure … and I always bring the heat. EMERSON: Never lose focus. Never lose control. Those are the first two rules in my carefully calculated plan for success. Finding myself thrown into the role of guardian for my little brother was not part of that plan. But I can adjust for Jay’s sake; I’m not about to let one change make me lose sight of my goals. Too bad Jay’s hot young baseball coach doesn’t seem to give a fig about my plans. He has one of his own—and it includes me. Gavin Monroe may play like a pro, but that boy will never win this game. THE WAY YOU ARE “They say nice guys always finish last. I say the only place that should apply is in the bedroom—it’s just good manners, after all.” – Brett MacKinnon, nice guy and frequent resident of the friend zone LIV: There are really only three things I need in life: sex, baseball, and winning. My hot boyfriend and season tickets take care of the first two, while I always do my best to cover the last. So developing an unexpected crush on a new friend is more than a little inconvenient. I don’t have anything but friendship to offer Brett, but with the way he looks at me, he has me wishing I did. BRETT: I’ve been put in the friend zone so often, they’ve got a sandwich named after me. You’d think I’d be used to it by now. But when it comes to the delectable Liv, I’m determined to ditch the friend zone and show her I’m boyfriend material. Too bad the position’s already been filled by a ball-playing caveman who could flatten me with his pinky. What will it take to show Liv that nice guys can be more than just friends, and that love is the one game truly worth winning? THE RUNAROUND Men are good for two things: orgasms and reaching the wine glasses on the top shelf. ARI: I’ve always said boyfriends are like martinis; they’re lots of fun at first, but the longer you indulge the bigger headache they’ll give you. With career goals to crush and more than a few balls in the air, there’s no place in my life for the messy complications of love. Jax Crosby thinks he can tempt me to lose control and he’s using his daughter to reel me in. He’d be dangerously easy to fall for, but there are more important things in life than love, aren’t there? JAX: I like to stay two steps ahead; that way, I’m never surprised. But even I didn’t see this one coming. Congratulations to me—I’m a freakin’ dad. Now I’ve got a teenage daughter who hates me, an ex who wants to cut things off my body I’m not ready to part with, and an attraction to a curvy songbird that couldn’t have come at a worse time. But I’ve never met a situation I couldn’t handle, and I’ve never let a female get the best of me. So why do I have the feeling Ariana Amante might be one more thing I never saw coming? Books not included in this set include: The Fix - Book 1 (Laney and Nate) The Spark - Book 2 (Fiona and Mark) The Lucky One - Book 3 (Bailey and Jake)

Download or read book The Steele Dossier written by Daniel David Elles and published by Daniel David Elles. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRUMP’S TEAM USING MOLES WITHIN THE DNC That’s a quote from the actual Steele Dossier that is in this book, but has not hit the mainstream media. Is it true? Who’s the mole? Who’s the FBI insider in the Trump Campaign? Was Steele credible? Simpson says that he was opposed to Trump, but does he think there was collusion with the Russians? What about Bruce and Nellie Ohr? Author Daniel David Elles was on the 2010 ballot for Michigan House of Representatives as an Independent in Macomb County, Michigan – Home of the Reagan Democrats. He states: Perhaps we are “fly-over country”, but we make up a significant voting percentage of our Great Nation. In February, he wrote about Simpson specifically stating that the FBI had an internal human source in the Trump Campaign. Three months later it hit the news networks. What facts are the mainstream media failing to tell us? FINALLY! NO BIAS. NO BULL. We don’t need to read about anonymous sources in a paper’s propagandists print. We don’t need to watch hundreds of hours of Congressional testimony. We don’t need to listen to biased broadcast beaming into our homes and uttering unconfirmed nonsense. With questions from Congress – Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-CA) and many more – YOU will get the facts straight from the source: · Fusion GPS Founder & CEO Glenn Simpson · CIA Director Brennan · FBI Director Comey · DOJ Associate Deputy AG Bruce Ohr · FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok · Former MI6 Crown Servant Christopher Steele (U.K. court records) WHO KNEW WHAT AND WHEN? The Steele Dossier purposely does not publish news articles from The Right or The Left. Instead, it incorporates high ranking officials’ under oath testimony to Congress and Declarations contained in official court documents in America and “Across the Pond”. From Steele’s sworn Statement of Truth in the Queen’s High Bench Division to the conclusions made in Simpson’s testimonies before the House and the Senate, YOU will be in the center of the action. How’s that? Because Simpson’s final hour of his Senate Examination is included in full. No edits. Moreover, this untelevised examination was conducted by attorneys for Senator Grassley (R-IA) and Senator Feinstein (D-CA)...NOT POLITICIANS! In reading over 3,000 pages of congressional testimony, articles from every angle, letters/memos from politicians; The Steele Dossier cuts through the political bias by publishing facts. For example, below are some Simpson quotes that we never heard: · It’s sort of like when you’re a journalist…you don’t really decide who’s telling the truth · The Orthodox Church is also an arm of the Russian State · We were encouraging the media to ask questions about whether the FBI… · I knew it was the DNC that we were working for · I was asked to provide some information to the Justice Department · Putin essentially took over the Russian Jewish Community and Leadership · The Russians were interested in making friends with Republicans. · There was a lot of Jewish immigration…and a lot of those people…became very successful and wealthy · In British intelligence the methodology's a little different from American intelligence. There's a practice of being faithful to what people are saying NOW…it’s time for America to decide AND for the world to see: What’s real news? What’s fake news? Thanks and God Bless America! Daniel David Elles Michigan House of Representatives Candidate - INDEPENDENT
