Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first episode of seven in the Fulcrum: Season One series. Jack loves his life. Yeah, he lives at the edge of a warzone between armies of monstrosities. You call it dangerous. Jack calls it Tuesday. Folks in town aren’t too keen on a fourteen-year-old running the only bar, but Jack has it under control. Maybe his customers trash the place more than he would like, but sometimes cybernetically enhanced mercenaries need to blow off some steam. With the help of Zeke—friend, mentor, monkey—Jack serves drinks to anyone who comes through his door. And for the right price, he might even sell you something with a bit more kick … something magical. When Corva gets knocked through the wall of his bar, Jack decides to help her out. Sure she’s being chased by a pack of bounty hunters and she’s got no idea why. But she can fight. Holy hell, she can fight. Jack could use someone like that to keep a little order in the bar. That should be a win-win, but Jack’s and Corva’s problems are bigger than either of them can guess, big enough change the course of the war. Fulcrum is a post-Armageddon dystopian science fiction fantasy with a taste of anime. Technology, magic, and a badass monkey. The drinks aren’t on the house, but you’re welcome to stay until last call. Note: This is not a YA story. This dark future is violent and contains profanity.

Book excerpt: “ON A SECRET AIRSTRIKE MISSION ONE NIGHT, TWO U.S. EX-FIGHTER PILOTS WAGE WAR IN OLD SOVIET MIG-29 FULCRUMS OVER THE SKIES OF IRAQ…” Tensions are building again in the Gulf region. In the many years after the Gulf War, Iraq continues to threaten regional and world peace. Stability and peace in the Gulf are in peril. The U.S. is deeply concerned—action must be taken. Another war is imminent. The famed MiG-29 Fulcrum and the country of Iraq provide the backdrop for a top secret U.S. air strike and form the basis for a special-ops air war like one never attempted before…a daring mission against all odds. The stage is set for war. The MiG-29 Fulcrum is the quintessential foreign fighter of our day. Iraq is the ultimate enemy. A simple twist of fate, a modern-day aerial Trojan Horse, and an unlikely air strike mission turn into an ironic plot of tactical deception in the very act of war. These two pilots are American mercenaries, fighter jocks paid to fight a secret war flying the premiere jet combat fighter in the Iraqi arsenal. Flown with two MiG-29 Fulcrum’s, the Soviet-made state-of-the-art ultimate enemy fighter painted in Iraqi colors it is the ultimate deception in aerial combat. This is the very story of the Second Gulf War. Sometimes an act of war is not what anyone can believe—the very act of war of one nation against another that most would claim is improbable, unbelievable, unimaginable, and even impossible. For this night,they are the enemy.
Download or read book The Happiness Advantage written by Shawn Achor and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • An engaging, deeply researched guide to flourishing in a world of increasing stress and negativity—the inspiration for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time “Powerful [and] charming . . . A book for just about anyone . . . The philosophies in this book are easily the best wire frames to build a happy and successful life.”—Medium Happiness is not the belief that we don’t need to change; it is the realization that we can. Our most commonly held formula for success is broken. Conventional wisdom holds that once we succeed, we’ll be happy; that once we get that great job, win that next promotion, lose those five pounds, happiness will follow. But the science reveals this formula to be backward: Happiness fuels success, not the other way around. Research shows that happy employees are more productive, more creative, and better problem solvers than their unhappy peers. And positive people are significantly healthier and less stressed and enjoy deeper social interaction than the less positive people around them. Drawing on original research—including one of the largest studies of happiness ever conducted—and work in boardrooms and classrooms across forty-two countries, Shawn Achor shows us how to rewire our brains for positivity and optimism to reap the happiness advantage in our lives, our careers, and even our health. His strategies include: • The Tetris Effect: how to retrain our brains to spot patterns of possibility so we can see and seize opportunities all around us • Social Investment: how to earn the dividends of a strong social support network • The Ripple Effect: how to spread positive change within our teams, companies, and families By turns fascinating, hopeful, and timely, The Happiness Advantage reveals how small shifts in our mind-set and habits can produce big gains at work, at home, and elsewhere.
