Book excerpt: March 8, 1990: An intoxicated three-man crew, including Flight Engineer Joseph Balzer, fly a Northwest Airlines Boeing 727 with 91 passengers aboard from Fargo, North Dakota to Minneapolis, Minnesota.Northwest Airlines, alcoholism July 25, 1990: All three pilots stand trial for flying a commercial airliner while under the influence of alcohol; all three are convicted and sent to federal prison. July 26, 1990 – present: Joe Balzer fights for redemption and to regain all that he has lost. Flying Drunk is his story. Since he was a young boy, Joe Balzer dreamed of flying. He pursued his goal with a vigorous passion and earned his pilot licenses, piling up hours of flight time with a wide variety of planes and jets with one overarching goal: to one day fly for a major airline. But Joe had a problem. He was an alcoholic and refused to admit to himself that he had a problem. His alcoholism caught up with him in March 1990, when Joe was arrested with two other pilots for flying a commercial airliner while under the influence of alcohol. His world began crumbling around him and his new marriage faced the ultimate test. He lost his promising career and his dignity. Every major media outlet, including The New York Times, Newsweek, and Time Magazine covered the shocking story for the stunned American flying public. The trial that followed drained Joe’s life’s savings and federal prison nearly broke him. Flying Drunk is Joe’s bittersweet and thoroughly chilling memoir of his twisted journey to a Federal courtroom, his time in the notorious Federal penitentiary system in Atlanta, and his struggle to recapture all that he held dear. Today, Joe is a recovering alcoholic, celebrating more than nineteen years of sobriety. The long road back from perdition led him to American Airlines, where good people and a great organization recognized a talented pilot who had cleaned up his act and was ready to fly again, safely. Flying Drunk is an incredible journey of the human spirit, from childhood to hell, and back again. Everyone should read and heed its message of hope and redemption. No one who does will ever forget it. About the Author: Joe Balzer is a pilot for American Airlines with more than 15,000 hours of flight experience.

Book excerpt: Dan is playing Minecraft with his friends, like he always does, when a strange figure, white from head-to-toe, approaches him in the game and drops a book at his feet. Cautiously, Dan reads the book: it's an invitation, to a school. A school for only the very best Minecraft players in the country. It has to be a trick. It's probably just a joke from one of his friends.Dan is thinking just that, when there's a knock at the door. A strange woman, dressed in all white, has arrived at Dan's front door. She introduces herself to his bewildered mom and dad with her angelic voice. Her name is Ms. Fennerby and she's a teacher at Herobrine Middle School, an academy for children gifted in the game of Minecraft. Dan has been selected as one of the builders and designers of his generation.It all seems to good to be true.And maybe it is...Herobrine Middle School is a thrilling middle school adventure filled with real emotions, page-turning excitement and characters that will jump off the page and make you laugh. It is Spy Kids and Harry Potter and The Hunger Games, all set to the backdrop of the mysterious world of Minecraft. Perfect for readers age eight to fourteen with a story that will excite all lovers of Minecraft. Excerpt "DAAANNNNN! It's dinner time!" the voice echoed up the stairs. "I'll be right down!" Dan yelled back. "I've just got to save the world!"Dan's mom, who was making a racket in the kitchen that made Dan think she was throwing every pot on the ground, didn't respond. That was okay.Dan didn't want to have to explain anyways. He was saving the world.Well... a world. The Minecraft world that he and a couple friends had been working on for over a year. They had magnificent houses and had built huge statues of their avatars in the game. Dan's pride and joy was built on the server too: The Cow Cannon 2000. The Cow Cannon 2000 did... well it did exactly what you would expect it to. It fired cows at blinding speed into the far away expanses of Minecraft. It fired them so far that Dan and his friends had never found any remains of the cows or the mine carts that they were fired in. The best part is that the machine worked automatically. It lured cows to the machine and then fired them off as soon as they got close enough. Dan was incredibly proud of it. A work of art, he told himself.And, really, everything had been perfect in that huge-housed, massive-statued, cow-raining world, until the griefers had shown up. Somehow, a bunch of older kids had found the server and at first it was fine. They built their own stuff. That was fine. But soon they were bored of that and started destroying anything and everything they could find.Dan had urged his friends to just not react. The griefers would get bored, he thought, and leave them alone. But they didn't get bored. So, it was time to take more drastic measures. The griefers' next target was Platinum Plateau where Dan's friends' houses were built, along with the Cow Cannon 2000. Dan wasn't going to let the griefers anywhere near it. He had spent the last week building a series of "secret" entrances to the plateau via mine cart. The idea was that the griefers would find the "secret" entrances and not be able to resist riding the mine carts into the centre of the plateau to surprise Dan and friends. But little did they know that the mine cart would take them right to the Cow Cannon 2000, and before they knew it, BAM! They'd be taking a free flight, courtesy of Dan airlines.What are you waiting for? Get reading!

Today, Southwest is the safest airline in the world and ranks number one in the industry for service, on-time performance, and lowest employee turnover rate; and Fortune magazine has twice ranked Southwest one of the ten best companies to work for in America. How do they do it? With unlimited access to the people and inside documents of Southwest Airlines, authors Kevin and Jackie Freiberg share the secrets behind the greatest success story in commercial aviation. Read it and discover how to transfer the Southwest inspiration to your own business and personal life.

Book Synopsis The Velvet Rope Economy by : Nelson D. Schwartz
Download or read book The Velvet Rope Economy written by Nelson D. Schwartz and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times business reporter Nelson D. Schwartz comes a gripping investigation of how a virtual velvet rope divides Americans in every arena of life, creating a friction-free existence for those with money on one side and a Darwinian struggle for the middle class on the other side. In nearly every realm of daily life--from health care to education, highways to home security--there is an invisible velvet rope that divides how Americans live. On one side of the rope, for a price, red tape is cut, lines are jumped, appointments are secured, and doors are opened. On the other side, middle- and working-class Americans fight to find an empty seat on the plane, a place in line with their kids at the amusement park, a college acceptance, or a hospital bed. We are all aware of the gap between the rich and everyone else, but when we weren't looking, business innovators stepped in to exploit it, shifting services away from the masses and finding new ways to profit by serving the privileged. And as decision-makers and corporate leaders increasingly live on the friction-free side of the velvet rope, they are less inclined to change--or even notice--the obstacles everyone else must contend with. Schwartz's "must read" book takes us on a behind-the-scenes tour of this new reality and shows the toll the velvet rope divide takes on society.
Book Synopsis Facts and Fears by : James R. Clapper
Download or read book Facts and Fears written by James R. Clapper and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The former Director of National Intelligence speaks out in this New York Times bestseller When he stepped down in January 2017 as the fourth United States Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper had been President Obama's senior intelligence advisor for six and a half years, longer than his three predecessors combined. He led the US Intelligence Community through a period that included the raid on Osama bin Laden, the Benghazi attack, the leaks of Edward Snowden, and Russia's influence operation on the 2016 U.S election. In Facts and Fears, Clapper traces his career through the growing threat of cyberattacks, his relationships with Presidents and Congress, and the truth about Russia's role in the presidential election. He describes, in the wake of Snowden and WikiLeaks, his efforts to make intelligence more transparent and to push back against the suspicion that Americans' private lives are subject to surveillance. Finally, it was living through Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and seeing how the foundations of American democracy were--and continue to be--undermined by a foreign power that led him to break with his instincts grown through more than five decades in the intelligence profession, to share his inside experience. Clapper considers such controversial questions as, is intelligence ethical? Is it moral to intercept communications or to photograph closed societies from orbit? What are the limits of what we should be allowed to do? What protections should we give to the private citizens of the world, not to mention our fellow Americans? Is there a time that intelligence officers can lose credibility as unbiased reporters of hard truths by asserting themselves into policy decisions? Facts and Fears offers a privileged look inside the United States intelligence community and addresses with the frankness and professionalism for which James Clapper is known some of the most difficult challenges in our nation's history.

Along the way, Lopez probes the long history of humanity’s thirst for exploration, including the prehistoric peoples who trekked across Skraeling Island in northern Canada, the colonialists who plundered Central Africa, an enlightenment-era Englishman who sailed the Pacific, a Native American emissary who found his way into isolationist Japan, and today’s ecotourists in the tropics. And always, throughout his journeys to some of the hottest, coldest, and most desolate places on the globe, Lopez searches for meaning and purpose in a broken world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Convenience is King When you make it easier for customers to do business with you, they will reward you with their money, their loyalty, and their referrals. There’s a reason they call it a convenience store – because it’s convenient! When you have to pick up a gallon of milk, would you rather stop by a large supermarket or a 7-Eleven? Customers who shop at convenience stores know the selection is smaller and the prices are often higher...yet they still come in droves because of the ease of purchase. What about the minibar in your hotel room? That’s convenient too...but the convenience comes at a cost. Did you ever stop to think that the same $5.00 can of Coca-Cola in the hotel’s mini-fridge can be bought down the hall from the vending machine for just $1.25? Yet even with that can of Coke being four times more expensive, hotels are restocking minibars every day. Customers will pay for convenience. And they’ll choose to do more business over time with the people and companies that make their lives more convenient! Whether you’re trying to out-service a competitor or disrupt an entire industry, creating less friction and being more convenient for your customers should be your strategy. When you raise the convenience bar, you create the next level of amazing customer experience. This book shows you how to leverage convenience as a powerful way to differentiate yourself from your competition. You’ll learn six compelling strategies, supported by numerous examples and case studies that will fuel your plan to create a focus on convenience for your customers. The value proposition is both simple and profound: when you reduce friction and make it easier for customers to do business with you, they’ll reward you with their money, their loyalty, and their referrals. That’s the advantage of being a part of The Convenience Revolution.
