    5 out of 5 stars Good book on incorporating your business.......2003-12-03

    Most books are pretty generic and offer precious little on how to set up your business in your own particular state. J.W. Dicks offers all of what the other books do plus much more.

    This book is very complete andif you are contemplating starting a business in Florida, I hghly recommend it. Great book.

    Book Description

    After failing at twenty-two other jobs, Barbara Corcoran borrowed $1000 from her boyfriend, quit her job as a diner waitress, and started a tiny real estate office in New York City. Using twenty-four unconventional lessons learned from her mom, Barbara built that tiny company into a $4 billion business, and today she's richer than her wildest childhood dreams.

    Barbara's hilarious stories and her mom's pithy advice—from “If you want to be a cheerleader, you better know the cheers” to “Jumping out the window will make you either an ass or a hero”—are bound to inspire greatness in any reader. This national bestseller (previously titled Use What You've Got) will make you feel better about yourself and teach you to look at obstacles in a whole different way.

    Barbara's wit is as enjoyable as her wisdom. A very easy read, this book puts a fun spin on the typically boring side of business management.

    5 out of 5 stars Att'n all real estate agents. Buy this book........2007-07-14

    Should be required reading for anyone in real estate sale, new to the business or a seasoned agent.

    3 out of 5 stars Be aware this merely a new title for an old book.......2007-06-13

    I ordered this book thinking it was different from Use What You've Got & Other Lessons I Learned from my Mom, which I bought in hardcover and enjoyed. It is not, it is the same as the older book. They simply retitled it.

    5 out of 5 stars This is hands down up there in my top 5 business books.......2007-06-12

    Yes - I have a personal connection to it because of the tie in with my background. Barbara started her real estate agency on a bootstrap just like me! BUT this book should not just be read by real estate business owners. It's witty, relevant to any business owner and beautifully crafted. While I of course admire Barbara for what she did turning a $1,000 investment by her boyfriend into one of Manhattan's largest real estate groups - my admiration grew when I read this sensational book.

    5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Business Books I've Read.......2007-05-14

    I review sales and marketing books for a living, and this is without a doubt one of the best sales books I've read. Not only is it full of well-grounded, sound business ideas and principles, it's also hilarious! I love Corcoran's style, wit, chutzpah, and self-deprecating humor.

    Whatever business you're in, you'll find something of value in this easy-to-read, laugh-a-minute, book.

      Book Description

      Indiana Cooks! is much more than a cookbook. It is a tantalizing feast for the eyes as well as the tastebuds as it celebrates top restaurants and great Indiana chefs and their philosophies of contemporary cuisine. Almost all of the chefs subscribe to the principles of eating seasonally, regionally, and convivially -- principles that are embraced by the international Slow Food movement, to which the authors are committed. Not only does this commitment to buying local food products help bolster the local economy, but the food is fresher, tastes better, and contributes to a memorable meal to be savored rather than gulped. The authors provide an index and contact information for the Indiana farms and artisan producers whose foods appear in the recipes in the book.

      Christine Barbour, who writes a food column for Bllomington's Herald Times, chose 15 restaurants throughout Indiana, interviewed the chefs, and procured four recipes from each chef that have been adapted for the home kitchen. Scott Feickert home-tested the recipes. The beautiful color photographs by Tom Stio will make you want to run to the store to obtain the ingredients and start cooking.

      Contact information for each restaurant and a convenient map are included. Indiana Cooks! is a must-have volume for the gourmet, the talented cook, and the cookbook collector.

      I was given this book as a gift and at first I let it sit on my shelf and look pretty. But recently I began to make some of the recipes for friends and each one of them got rave reviews. The pictures are beautiful; the writing is superb and now I find that the recipes are outstanding. I am ordering a bunch to give as gifts for birthdays and when I am invited to someone's home. Buy it and ENJOY!

      I've noticed that there seem to be 2 kinds of cookbooks; those that sit on the shelf for many years in largely the same condition in which they were acquired, and those that are dog-eared and have certain food-stained pages with the corners turned down.

      The same goes for narrative books intended to be read for the content of their story (whereas cookbooks should usually be more properly thought of as manuals). Again, two types - they either get read once and forgotten or read and then passed around or lent, often never to be seen again (in my experience).

      Here's a cookbook that will receive the latter treatment on both counts. I owned this book for no more than a single day when a fellow cook absconded with it. Luckily, I've recovered the book. However, I've noticed that people pick it up for a cursory glance and then, distracted, sit down and begin pouring through it. In order to retain this book so that it can achieve dog-eared food-stained status at my own hand, I'll be giving copies of it away as gifts (as opposed to replacing my own copies as they vanish).

      Whether you're new to Slow Food or not, you'll find the creativity evident in these dishes inspiring. If you already participate in any sort of Slow Food gathering, this book will be de rigueur.

      While I'm partial to desserts (I must, must round up some Shagbark Hickory Syrup, p.34), the layout of the recipes restaurant by restaurant and chef by chef, a full course from each, does a superior job of emphasizing the regional elements of the foods. This is a terrific book, and the LaSalle Grill's Apple Fritters with Caramel Sauce are underway in our kitchen this very evening. That page (p.53) already has a post-it stuck to it, doubtless a presage to dog-earedness.

          One of the many advantages managed futures offer is that their returns have low correlations with the returns of other traditional asset classes-even though they can entail significant costs. This monograph provides an overview of the industry, discusses the advantages and disadvantages of managed futures, reviews their historical performance record, presents a method for evaluating their performance in a portfolio, and lays out how to establish a managed futures program.

              Book Description

              You're the CEO of XYZ Worldwide.CNN has reported today, based on an unsubstantiated Matt Drudge report, that a female board member is engaged with you in insider trading of XYZ stock.And that she's rumored to be your lover.Camera crews and reporters are gathering in the lobby.What do you do?Ten years ago-even five-all an executive had to do was slip out the back door.But to survive in today's business world, where executives' personal lives (like recent Presidents') are no longer out of bounds, CEOs have to take responsibility for such stories, and have to respond immediately to the media with a credible explanation.Most executives simply don't realize that this is what they must do.Their careers are at stake.The PR Crisis Bible is the only book to protect a CEO's reputation by stopping the problem where it begins: in the mind of the CEO.It's the first book that shows CEOs how the new media rules have changed the world.It demonstrates the right ways to respond to today's instant scandals, unsubstantiated reports, Internet rumors, and other crises.It pinpoints the reasons why CEOs get themselves into trouble, and shows how to turn a disaster to advantage.Today, CEOs must avoid the "seven deadly sins of handling a crisis" because even if they had nothing to do with a problem, it ends up in their lap.The buck always stops at the top.Robin Cohn strikes a masterful balance between fear, the most powerful of motivators, and humor.Her cautionary tales of executives on the receiving end of adverse media will strike a chord with all decision-makers and leaders. The author's message?You can be prepared.But you must know the drill before a cyber-disaster strikes.

              Cohn has been there and done that. She carefully dissects well-known crises in the news and lets you know how they could have been handled better, and more important, how you can survive and thrive if similar crises were to hit you and your company.

              4 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT CHOICE BUT..........2001-12-11

              Robin Cohn explains in a simple and easy way how to manage a crisis; She mostly writes about "what not to do" in a crisis and "what to do" to prevent a crisis... I was expecting a couple of guidelines of "what to do" during a crisis and I din't get to much of that.
              The cases explained in the book are excellent examples and Cohn does a great job on relating every thing she says with an example.
              The book would have been even better if some international crisis examples have been mentioned; This would have been extremely useful for Latin American PR Consultants.
              I recommend this book to every crisis Manager because of the examples and case studies that Cohn writes about..

              5 out of 5 stars PR Crisis Practice Turns Peril Into Opportunity.......2000-11-25

              This is the best book I have read on how to prepare for and handle public relations crises. It is incredibly up-to-date and timely, featuring material in its introduction about the public relations aspects of the currently occurring recall of Firestone tires being used on Ford Explorer vehicles.

              Business has become one of the favorite whipping boys in the media to provide temporary diversion from the usual stream of personal scandals, talk show confessions, and entertainment releases. Do a good job, and you will seldom appear. Be remotely connected to something harmful, controversial, or threatening, and the world is at your door. Ms. Cohn does a very effective job of explaining why this is, and how you can influence it.

              The book is organized around 7 deadly sins in a public relations crisis. These sins are really mindsets that are mistaken and will usually prove harmful:

              It will never happen here (chances are it will)

              I don't care how it looks (the more you ignore it, the worse you make things, up until the day that everyone involved is fired)

              Let them eat cake (describing things inaccurately just draws more wrath and personal jeopardy)

              It's not our fault (customers and the public aren't looking to find out who's at fault, they want to know who's going to take responsibility for solving the problem so they can feel confident again)

              Just say "No comment!" (people will assume you are hiding something and more negative attention will come your way)

              Just numbers on a balance sheet (the source of all the damaging material will probably come from current and former employees -- good internal communication and behavior are most critical)

              React first, think later (you can step into a mess from which you cannot extract yourself, like quicksand)

              These sins and the stallbusting solutions for them are detailed in each fascinating chapter. These sections are enlivened by a wide variety of former crises handled unsuccessfully (such as the Exxon Valdez) and successfully (such as J&J's Tylenol recall). Almost all of them will be familiar in general, but you will get added detail to help you understand why a company did or did not do well.

              Ms. Cohn herself is very experienced in this area and draws on personal examples in many cases, especially the crash of an Air Florida jet in Washington, D.C.

              The basic lessons revolve around the concept of establishing crisis scenarios and practicing how to handle those scenarios before they occur. You also get directions for how to do the practice so it will be relevant and realistic. This benefits of this type of simulation training are also spelled out well in The Art of the Long View, which you may wish to read as well.

              The book is filled with an enormous quantity of do's and don't's. I found it hard to keep track of them all as I went along. I was pleased to see many of the concepts behind them summarized on pages 329 and 330. You might find it easier to absorb the material in the book if you began by reading the introduction, then went to these two pages, and returned to the beginning of the book.

              The management process described here would work well in any problem-solving environment. Although the author does not make that point, you should be sensitive to it. You have a lot more to gain by studying this book closely than you realize, and broadening its application. Stalled thinking is also a problem in other critical areas of a company.

              Remember that an ounce of prevention can often be worth much more than a pound of cure!

                Book Description

                It is time for a new beginning. We need to go back to the fundamental purpose of taxation: to simply raise revenue for the operation of government. A new tax code needs to be drafted according to basic principles that will avoid the complications that have led to the present code. This book puts forward a complete tax code that is remarkably concise and clear. This is possible because it focuses only on the task of raising necessary revenue. Tax exemptions that promote other goals are severely restricted in order to keep things simpler and bring such goals into a forum of open debate. Specific funding legislation should be debated and passed rather than hidden in special interest tax exemptions. After all, why should we not be allowed to clearly see how our money is being spent?

                Some may object that the proposed code is too simplistic because of clarity and brevity of the code, but simple does not mean simplistic. Let those who insist on the inadequacy of the new code demonstrate the necessity of a more complicated code. We have a right to laws we can understand; therefore, anyone claiming the need for complications must justify them. The aim of this book is to clear the confusion of the present situation by advancing a concrete, understandable starting point for the tax revolution so ardently desired by so many Americans.

                                        1 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE - MEDIOCRITY AT BEST.......2004-08-23

                                        I was really disappointed that someone who has such a rich set of experiences in the industry would write such a mediocre book. I didn't really learn anything new or gain any unexpected insights. Haphazard and poorly translated thoughts. Two thumbs down. :-(

                                        4 out of 5 stars Baby Boomer Mischief.......2004-02-02

                                        This baby boomer's vivid recollections of childhood in the 50's and the pranks done by his three brothers and himself pale against the parent-controlled childhood of the current generation. Yes, while the everyday experiences of these children created dangerous situations (which should certainly not be practiced today), they all escaped unscathed (at least physically, that is). This story is told in very humorous tones and takes one back to the "good old days" when organized play, video games, and hi-tech television was non existent. Someone should write a screenplay for this book. It would make an excellent play and/or movie!
