Book Description
"PICK UP AX...has a smart, sassy script that's studded with bright, funny dialogue... Clarvoe's very hip script centers on the fortunes of two bright young men, Keith Rienzi and Brian Weiss, who have bootstrapped themselves from a free-wheeling, penny-ante operation into a multi-million dollar computer software corporation through Keith's inventive brilliance and Brian's business instincts. But at twenty-seven, Keith is losing some of his whiz-kid brain, Brian's financial pipeline is drying up, and their supplier is refusing to deliver vital microchips to them. Just when these two aging wunderkind are facing disaster, in walks...Mick Palomar, a slick operator armed with an M B A and a flair for old-fashioned extortion..." Richard Christiansen, Chicago Tribune "PICK UP AX is a fast, funny, entertaining play about a fascinating subject: the growing pains of the personal computer industry... PICK UP AX is likely to be an audience-pleaser because of the sheer exuberance and wit of the script..." Brin., Variety

Book Description
What if we created a world - one model community at a time - that was committed to developing all humans' gifts and virtues, instead of a world hellbent on making money, scrambling for extrinsic forms of power, or wallowing in meaningless comfort? What if we surrounded ourselves with a culture that helped us to discern and use spiritual principles, no matter what religion or secular belief we practice? These are some of the questions addressed by the future citizens of a fictional town in the intriguing Allsville Emerging, as they evolve from online think tanks to planning and building an actual community which exemplifies the values implied by those questions. Seldom has such idealism been tempered by so many plausible and, at times, downright practical solutions. Allsville Emerging is a pipe dream turned pipeline. This book is not about a Utopian community. It's a fictional, but philosophical, account which unfolds into a workable blueprint for a better way of doing "us." About the Author: Darrell Moneyhon is a retired prison counselor (Masters Level Psychology Assistant), living with his wife, Becky, in Columbus, Ohio. He was raised on a farm in northern Kentucky. Darrell is influenced by the teachings of Christ, Taoism, American pragmatism, the Integral philosophy of Ken Wilber, and the writings of Stephen R. Covey and Thomas Merton. His next book is Christians Thinking Like Energy, which explores the similarity between the modern concept of energy and the traditional concept of spirit. http: //SBPRA.com/DarrellMoneyhon

Book Description
Driving away from the cabin, John wondered how this weekend's events would turn out. He had a very good feeling that this would be his new beginning and that this woman would save him from the man he had become. He had bet his life on it. John knew that he was trapped in an abusive marriage with his wife Heather, but he never expected what Heather would do to him or his kids for a chat room lover. When her lover ends the relationship, Heather inadvertently starts John's life in a direction he never would have fathomed. If only John had the gumption to do something about their problems sooner, his life might have turned out in a way he could be proud of instead of the misery that it had turned into. In an effort to do for others what he could never do for himself, John takes action and distributes his own brand of justice, but his chosen path constantly torments him. After a series of disturbing yet fulfilling events, John readies himself to end this chapter of his life. He begins searching for the one person that will finally extinguish his rage and free him from the man he has become. When John finds the ideal person, his life unfolds in a way he never could have anticipated or dreamed.

Book Description
Ross Honsberger was born in Toronto, Canada, in 1929 and attended the University of Toronto. After more than a decade of teaching mathematics in Toronto, he took advantage of a sabbatical leave to continue his studies at the University of Waterloo, Canada. He joined the faculty in 1964 (Department of Combinatorics and Optimization) and has been there ever since. He is married, the father of three, and grandfather of three. He has published seven bestselling books with the Mathematical Association of America. Here is a selection of reviews of Ross Honsberger's books: The reviewer found this little book a joy to read ... the text is laced with historical notes and lively anecdotes and the proofs are models of lucid, uncluttered reasoning. (about Mathematical Gems I) P. Hagis, Jr., in Mathematical Reviews This book is designed to appeal to high school teachers and undergraduates particularly, but should find a much wider audience. The clarity of exposition and the care taken with all aspects of explanations, diagrams and notation is of a very high standard. (about Mathematical Gems II) K. E. Hirst, in Mathematical Reviews All (i.e., the articles in Mathematical Gems III) are written in the very clear style that characterizes the two previous volumes, and there is bound to be something here that will appeal to anyone, both student and teacher alike. For instructors, Mathematical Gems III is useful as a source of thematic ideas around which to build classroom lectures ... Mathematical Gems III is to be warmly recommended, and we look forward to the appearance of a fourth volume in the series. Joseph B. Dence, Mathematics and Computer Education These delightful little books contain between them 27 short essays on topics from geometry, combinatorics, graph theory, and number theory. The essays are independent, and can be read in any order ... overall these are serious books presenting pretty mathematics with elegant proofs. These books deserve a place in the library of every teacher of mathematics as a valuable resource. Further, as much of the material would not be beyond upper secondary students, inclusion in school libraries may be felt desirable too (about Mathematical Gems I and II) Paul Scott, in The Australian Mathematics Teacher

Book Description
Object work, environment and physicality are essential for improvisational theatre. Skilled improvisers can draw audiences into the performance by helping them see things that aren't there. The Improv Illusionist is the first book dedicated to physical improv. It reveals why these skills are so important, how to fix bad habits that develop over time and practical techniques for being more physical on stage. The book features over 50 exercises to help improvisers develop their skills through solo and group work. Instructors will also find notes and tips for teaching physical improv. Improvisers of all ages and experience levels will learn how to: * become more playful through exploring physical activity; * eliminate miscommunication with other players by adding precision to object work; * get new ideas for scenes by exploring the environment and activities; * develop an eye for real-world detail and how to reproduce it in improv; * add more visual flair to scenes; * stay safe, both physically and emotionally, in shows, rehearsals and classes Even the most seasoned improv performers often struggle to be more physical, so this book fills an important niche in improv actor training.
