Anticipated Publication: September 5, 2012: Take a look...
Ask any leader, candid communication and integrity equal professional success, right? WRONG! With clear and compelling headlines screaming for honest-play, some continue to operate out-of-bounds when it comes to walkin' the talk of clean values and ethical profit. Angry consumers and failed business relationships support the need for a real conversation and social debate regarding business integrity. Authentic Influence: The Great Equalizer dives below the surface to examine and celebrate those doing it right; honest women and men of influence, and everyday people practicing authenticity with mind blowing results. Honesty, candor and transparent course-corrections will become the new norm over the next five years - Authentic Influence: The Great Equalizer will tell you why and how.

No Quota! The Speeders Bible is packed with factual excuses, justifications and smoke screens to use when stopped by the police ... or not! This hilarious read presents the circumstances of over 100 traffic situations followed by the actual excuse used by the driver. Each excuse includes a "Risk Rating" that ranges from a five donut rating (a perfect excuse to use), digressing to the lowest rating, "No Donut, Step out of the Car" (clearly not a very smart excuse to use on 'Da Man). The scores are available to aid the reader along with an editorial trip into the officer's mind; qualifying exactly why officers love and hate our excuses. A fun read and a wonderful gift for those - like the author - suffering the pain of increased insurance rates!
3. Anti-Terrorism Risk: Profiles, Predictions & Prevention
Academic Text/Homeland Security, 204 pages, Pearson-Prentice-Hall Publishing, 2005. $54.60 (ouch!)

Terror Risk is an interesting, disturbing and expensive read. The college text was prepared for the Homeland Security Program Development Team. HSPDT desired a student manual examining past terror attacks for the predictable, preventable and teachable countermeasures. Terror Risk includes findings and conclusions resulting from a study of Al Qaeda and other terror groups. Data was gathered from interesting and not-so-friendly countries - a jaunt around the globe much different than the blockbuster Eat, Pray, Love. The book was completed in five months - three months ahead of deadline. Rumors say this was not due to academic efficiency. After completing research, the author was too terrified to leave his home and passed the time with non-stop work on the book. Interesting read, but please avoid reading it at night.
