Book Description

When she became principal of a 1000-student Georgia elementary school, Dr. Sanders-Butler was disturbed by the high number of visits to the school nurse, disciplinary problems, tardiness, and inattention, to say nothing of so many children being overweight. Convinced the problems were directly related to the pizza, sodas, and sweets the school offered, she launched the Achieving Academic Excellence Through Nutrition program, which banned refined sugars and high-fat and processed foods and drink from the cafeteria.

The results were immediate: better attendance, improvements in attention and energy levels, plus higher grades. Now, she shares with parents everywhere the lunchroom lessons that will help their children thrive, including:

- Best foods for growing minds and bodies
- Best choices for setting up a healthy kitchen, including shopping for "natural" and organics foods and packaged, and convenience products
- Eating out, special occasions, and eating "on the go."
- Fighting peer pressure and junk-food commercials
- Breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner: ideas, advice, and 50 simple, healthful recipes
- How everyone can get involved in their school and community
- Resources for information and support-on-and-off line

Book Description

Acclaim for Bernie Schaeffer's expert approach to options trading.

"Bernie Schaeffer's penchant for contrary investing is terrific, and his market calls on that strategy have been excellent. He shows how to apply contrary thinking-and many other types of 'expectational analysis'-to option strategies. All option traders should enjoy reading this book." -Lawrence G. McMillan President, McMillan Analysis Corp. Author, Options as a Strategic Investment and McMillan on Options.

"A superb book that will benefit both stock and options investors. It blends technical analysis, fundamentals, investor psychology, and strategy to come up with an excellent approach to the markets. A good read for the investor seeking new trading ideas in today's fast moving markets." -Leo Fasciocco Stock Market Columnist, Investor's Business Daily.

"A breath of fresh air for options traders. Most options books are textbook in nature. Schaeffer cuts right to the chase and provides solid ideas on how to use options effectively for both conservative and trading-oriented investors. It's innovative and fresh. Get a copy." -Thomas J. Dorsey President, Dorsey Wright & Associates Author, Point & Figure Charting.

When nationally renowned options expert Bernie Schaeffer talks, everyone listens. A "Market Maven" on CNBC, a frequent guest on CNN, and a top-rated Timer Digest market timer for the past decade, he has also been a featured speaker at numerous investment conferences. His views on the stock market and the economy are regularly quoted in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Barron's, and Investor's Business Daily. Thousands of subscribers eagerly await each issue of his Option Advisor newsletter, and when he distills his decades of knowledge and experience-as he does in this remarkable book-savvy investors everywhere pay close attention.

In The Option Advisor: Wealth-Building Strategies Using Equity and Index Options, Schaeffer offers his own carefully tested, prudent, and profitable strategies for trading options. He begins by dispelling outdated folklore and beliefs about the options world, and reveals instead how options can be used as an inexpensive, leveraged vehicle for profiting from the movement in an equity. With clarity and logic, he explains the basic principles of options trading, emphasizing, in particular, why options cannot be traded like stocks-a very common and potentially very costly mistake.

Schaeffer delves into the psychology of options trading, demonstrating how to distinguish between "high" and "low" expectation stocks, how to measure sentiment, and how to master the valued Contrary Opinion Theory for successful trading. He shares his wealth-building techniques for selecting the right stocks, assessing risk, managing your options portfolio, and, most important, for reading market timing indicators. What The Option Advisor boils down to is expert guidance on managing your money, while avoiding the most common errors of options trading.

In a detailed section on applications, Schaeffer gives you practical, hands-on advice on how to use a full array of real-world trading strategies, including quick trades, aggressive trading strategies, conservative approaches, portfolio protection, and the increasingly popular Long-term Equity AnticiPation Securities (LEAPS). With characteristic thoroughness, Schaeffer also offers invaluable information on selecting an options broker, opening an options trading account, and doing research on the Internet.

From the novice to the experienced investor, The Option Advisor offers a gold mine of information on how to achieve success in options trading.

Schaeffer's Strategies Don't Work.......2007-07-03

As tracked by Mark Hulbert, following Schaeffer's Options Advisor newsletter's advice would have resulted in a compounded annual loss of 4.7% per year over a period of time when the market GAINED 12.7% per year. While his newsletter has not lost money in recent years it has trailed the S&P 500 over 1-, 3-, 5-, 10-, and 15-year time periods.

Is that kind of advice worth paying for and worth spending your time to read? I think not.

get your highlighter, you can find something of value.......2006-09-09

Mr. Schafer writes about several different option strategies. More importantly, he covers several tools you can use ranging from magazine covers to VIX. He also touches on the "Greeks" and money management. The first 130 pages covers the tools and basics of options and the second half of the book covers specific option strategies and more details on how to spot a trade.

There are many black and white charts throughout the book detailing the specific indicators and what they may look like when you want to buy or sell. The examples are clear and easy to understand. I had to read some paragraphs a couple of times to understand which I would expect when learning a new concept.

Each time I go through this book, I am reinforced of what I know and often pick up details I have missed in the past. There is a lot of good information in this book. Someone who wants to increase their knowledge regarding technical analysis and broaden their horizons can gain something from this book.

Worst Newsletter Service.......2005-06-04

The service is a sure way to loose money. I consider myself as a novice investor but I can do better on my own than following his advise. Talking to service rep is waste of your time and effort. The service rep will listen to you but do nothing.
The research company refuses to refund unused portion. What a nice TRAP. I wish I had read the reviews over here before I threw my hard earned money.

Great Technical Analysis.......2002-04-23

Only 50% of the book is about options. The other 50% concentrates on how to use technical analysis to find winning stocks. It is probably the best book for the beginner and intermediate trader. With the Technical analysis, it can be used for both stocks and options. It belongs on every trader's shelf. The reason it didn't get a "5 Star" is that he really doesn't go into closing a position if the trade is going the wrong way. I pretty much had to learn that on my own. I have read it cover-to-cover 3 times and certain chapters at least 6 times.

Super.......2001-10-29

This book is more than an option book. Actually it concentrates more on the technical analysis than options. It tells you what to look for in the charts, option volume and oprn interest, and then which option strategy to use. This is by far my favorite book on stocks and options.

Don't bother........2000-07-12

This is just a warmed-over re-issue of the author's Technical Analysis Simplified, which was not very useful to begin with. You probably can learn more about the subject by surfing the Internet.

Product Description

The objective of this book is to explore different perspectives on how undesirable work climates continue to exist in many places, and to help inspire organizations in developing workable solutions, by building the kind of environment many people want and desire to work for, in both the betterment of their company and their own personal accomplishment.

A Philosophical Journey Through Corporate Bureaucracy.......2003-05-12

"Our American dream is falling apart. The road to success is not as clear-cut as we were led to believe as children growing up in American society. We were taught to better ourselves and work towards pursuing a career and finally, having a family. The ideal of the American dream is being distorted by the organizations we work for. Family values are diminishing, and two incomes are needed where thirty years ago, one wage earner was more than adequate. Work ethics and business practices put pressure on us to be more committed to our jobs and less to our lives."

So begins a philosophical journey through one segment of today's corporate landscape, as viewed by author Jessica Luke, a former IBM software application developer. The range of the book is broad; it covers the history of labor relations and a critique of current human resource management (personality types, stress, burnout, depression, time management, technology, innovation, communication, teamwork, motivation, incentives, performance evaluation, and training). She also touches briefly on executive compensation, the recent corporate accounting scandals, and the 90's practice of downsizing and outsourcing. This commentary is set against the book's thesis which seems to be that "the unscrupulous power of corporate greed" causes management to make decisions that do not value the individuality of workers.

While practically each subject covered could be a book in itself, there's no denying the sea-change in many of our working lives that has occurred in the last three or four decades (or the 20th century, for that matter). Luke's experience working in corporate America, while not discussed directly, seems to be summed up in the following line: "Business organizations shamefully continue to operate with the same uncivilized, barbarian and rigid mindset that prevailed at the beginning of the century."

Despite this indictment, her broader points seem to be: who bears the responsibility for employee satisfaction - management or the employee? How does one maintain a sense of self in our increasingly institutionalized world? Can individuals have a voice in bureaucracies?

As worldwide population continues to increase, these are questions we will struggle with over the next decade, maybe longer. And I suspect we'll hear more from Luke on this subject, too; I distinctly heard a personal story shadowing the corporate analysis. In the meantime, she seems to have begun her journey at a place anyone in this writers' association can appreciate; with pen and paper and the fire of one's own thoughts.

Corporate Power Driven By Greed - What else is there to say?.......2003-02-04

Jessica's smart, thoughtful, innovative look at the corporate world has it all, including those glass ceilings we need to make sure we got our underwear on for! Very well researched and a must read for anyone in the self-employed, blue collar or corporate world. Can't we all just get along? - You go girl! Great write and great resource for any office!

A new style Business Book.......2003-02-03

This new book, recently published, by Jessica I. Luke comes at a very appropriate moment during these moments of hard economical times. The goal of this book is examine the relationship between companies and their employees, and to expose what is greed compared to true profitability. The book goes into: leadership, bad top management, downsizing, outsourcing, resistance to change, creativity, strategies, people's attitude, time management, communication, effective management, importance of technology, importance of innovation and conveying positive change. The book is 124 pages long. The book defines each topic clearly, succinctly and in simple terms. This is a welcome change from all those huge dreary business books. The book provides clear solutions on what is good and bad. Looking at the downsizing chapter, it reminds me of what is going on at my current employer. I am witnessing the results of the procedure in the mind of people left behind. It also define, as I always said in my current position, the importance of technology. This book is down to earth, gives simple effective guidelines and even has cartoons to make a point. In short it is a very different and recommended business book

Awesome!!!.......2003-02-01

Corporate Power Driven By Greed would be an awesome training tool in any business. This book could even be required reading before employment or advancement. One of my favorite sections of the book is "Ogre Bosses." I would probably still be at what was a great job if it weren't for the "Ogre Boss" I had to deal with. I came to dislike my job very much because of my boss. I really enjoyed telling this person to "Take this job and shove it!" The look on his face was worth it. He humiliated everyone around him and he was very abrasive and controling. I wonder if he still has his job? Hmmmmmm... I believe good management is what makes a job great, because if you do not like the people you are working for you will not be happy. Most people spend half their lives working. Think about it. If you are miserable at your place of employment, then aren't you miserable most of your life?

Jessica Luke deftly emphasizes her points with wry humor.......2002-12-12

Corporate Power Driven By Greed by Jessica I. Luke is a sharply worded and quite articulate challenge against the commonly held idea that the bottom line is all that matters in business. Stressing that human resources are what truly matters, and that providing incentive, recognition and a good work environment is what keeps productive employees producing, as well as attracting the best possible new employees, Corporate Power Driven By Greed is a persuasive, point-by-point primer to successfully stimulating worker morale. Jessica Luke deftly emphasizes her points with wry humor and amusing black-and-white illustrations. Corporate Power Driven By Greed is highly recommended reading for anyone charged with the responsibility for ensuring the strong economic health and success of their corporate enterprise.
