Indiana Cooks!: Great Restaurant Recipes For The Home Kitchen (Quarry Books)
Christine Barbour , and Scott Feickert Manufacturer: Quarry Books ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0253346649 |
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.

Will Serve You Well In a Crisis.......2004-11-26
EXCELLENT CHOICE BUT..........2001-12-11
PR Crisis Practice Turns Peril Into Opportunity.......2000-11-25
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!

LET'S REALLY CHANGE TAXES, A Complete Internal Revenue Code In 30 Sections
Robert P. Hodous , and Lou Lombardi Manufacturer: Lincoln-Rembrandt Pub. ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 1571710078 |
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.
