Don't get me wrong. I love magic, just not when it is used for evil. It's bad enough when some poor soul is murdered in my hometown, but when he's near and dear to someone I care about, I have no choice but to look for the killer. Since magic seems to be involved in his death, my teenage cousin and I might be the only ones who can discover the killer's identity. After all, we are witches. I was hoping this would be a run-of-the-mill case, but no. The number of suspects keeps mounting, making our job more difficult. Considering most suspects live across the state makes it doubly hard. Can we say road trip!! Seriously, this person is super dangerous, and we have to take precautions. But never fear, between my trusty talking pink iguana, my very talented business partner who has mad computer skills, and my teenaged psychic cousin, we're sure to crack the case.

Lo-Ammi Richardson uses his life's story to provides practical steps for those who are searching for identity and purpose. Every life lived has a purpose. Find your purpose and live the life you were created to live.

A vivid and candid picture of a British woman's life in Thailand in the 1950s: the politics, the coups d'état, summary executions, cholera epidemics, religion, etiquette, manners, food, dress, education, and much more. From 1957 to 1961 Averin and Geoffrey Hinton were attached to the British Embassy in Bangkok. Geoffrey was officially a diplomat with the rank of 1st Secretary, but this was cover for his role as MI6 intelligence officer, though the letters give no hint of what he was really up to.Throughout the posting, Averin wrote round-robin letters to the family back in England, and most of these letters have survived. They show Averin throwing herself with gusto into the role of diplomat's wife, running a household with six or seven servants and their families, entertaining dignitaries, teaching English, mixing with royalty, all amidst an endless whirl of cocktail and dinner parties.This volume, Part 3, contains the letters dated January 1959 to March 1961.

Even more common sense beyond conventional management thinking! At what point does your CEO instinct rebel against the latest business fad permeating your world? The latent common sense of the Captains of Industry should kick in early and hard; years of experience should have built bulwarks against the floods of academic slop constantly storm-surging over the landscape. The Newspeak and overthink of age-old problems inside of and outside the castle moat isn't simplifying the management thereof. This third volume of the Unconventional CEO series strikes hard at the heart of this darkness; common sense clarifies the understanding of issues. Common sense also 'simplicates' the solutions. All in all, this book perpetuates the belief and practice that the lessons from the trenches is more valuable than business school ideas. The seasoned CEO should find many dusted-off gems in these pages; reminders of the common sense that may have been rusting in their arsenal of experience. Aspiring leaders should revel in the discovery of already-learned lessons. Either way, the author's 30 year tenure as CEO of start-ups, listed and just managed companies shines a light into that foreboding corner of old-fashioned ideas that stood the test of time.

More lessons on common sense, ideas on getting more out of your position, and finding your CEO mojo. The Assault of compliance on common sense is relentless. So is stupidity. The fast pace of a changing business world is obscuring the use of common sense. The vagaries of 'business speak' obfuscate language. It is deemed barbaric not to use plain words to describe plans, actions and outcomes. A constant invention of terminology leaves a bewildering trail of confused translation of the intended meaning. To this the easily offended and the wayward business modeler add their distractions.How can common sense be found to cut through the increasing assault of compliance and similar distracting nonsense? After the good reception of Volume 1: The Unconventional CEO, the author dug a bit deeper under the scabs and scars of a profitable career as corporate (short) and entrepreneur (seemingly lifelong) career to find more lessons.The Return of the Unconventional CEO brings more trumping ideas, clarifying the mist of indecision with hard-won nuggets. The 60-odd chapters reflect experiences not found in popular management books or in polite management-speak conversations. If you liked the first volume, then you may find solace in some of these pages. It's cold and lonely of the bridge of the Ship of Fate, hopefully you will warm to some common sense with those 'a-ha!' moments when you are reminded that you knew that all along.

Originally published by order of the Delaware General Assembly in 1863, Military Interference With the Election in Delaware, November 4, 1862 contains testimonies from nearly one hundred and thirty citizens about Republicans' use of federal troops to disarm volunteer militia companies and harass, assault, arrest, imprison, and disenfranchise Democratic voters. There are also dissenting voices who maintain that Southern-sympathizing Democrats planned to suppress the Republican or Union vote, and had to be restrained by force. The joint committee appointed by the General Assembly to investigate the controversy concluded that Republican politicians orchestrated a military invasion of Delaware "to defeat the fair expression of the popular will at the polls by the potent influence of Federal bayonets." The first edition of the committee's report and journal was never reprinted, and is one of the rarest books about Delaware history. This new edition, transcribed and edited by Christopher Slavens, will enable readers to read the hundreds of pages of testimonies about the events of 1862 for themselves, and make up their own minds about what happened, and why.
