Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las Vegas Scammers, Schemers and Dreamers is a behind the scenes, inside look at life in another world: The Casino. What goes on in this world within a world? How do people really act? What does it take to get escorted out and told not to come back? What does it take to have the police or the Gaming Commission called? My very first call from Surveillance came on my second day on the job. I was informed that a customer (for lack of a printable word) pulled out hair from his arm and put it on his eggs. After I was convinced this was not a joke, I became shocked, angry, and curious all at the same time. I couldnt believe someone would do this to get out of paying for their $1.99 Steak & Eggs special. My normal thinking for the past twenty years had been I wonder if well have any problems today. A very short time later, it changed to I wonder how many well have today. The stories youre about to read couldnt possibly be made up. They were written with a sarcastic and humorous tone. Because if I took them to heart, you would be visiting me at the home. Youll also read stories about gambling problems, including my own, which are not so funny. Thats the reason I need you to buy this book. I just might be able to break even. I can almost guarantee that you too are going to be shocked and amazed at human behavior in a casino. I can also almost guarantee that if you have even the slightest sense of humor, youll be laughing and enjoying this book. Frank Garibaldi

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When hearing that someone fell victim to a scam the initial reaction is often to wonder how anyone could have fallen for such a thing. The next thought is that it would never happen to them. Unfortunately it happens to everyone without regard to education, income level or social status. Scammers, Schemers and Dreamers follows a fictional middle-class, well-educated family as they fall victim to common, and very real, versions of consumer fraud. The narrative clearly illustrates that no one is immune in today's society. Written by Elisabeth Daniels, former Chairperson of the Fight Fraud Nevada Taskforce, and Richard J. Warren, consumer columnist for The Vegas Voice, the book tells a cautionary tale for all consumers. Part Two provides information on how to evaluate home-based business opportunities that are proliferating today and avoid becoming involved in something that is not suitable. Part Three provides tips and resources for consumers and highlights the most common scams.

Book excerpt: Restaurateurs say "you sell the sizzle, not the steak." The sizzle is usually what those seeking a home business buy only to find the steak too tough to digest. So many people try their hand at network marketing and the overwhelming majority of them fail. Yet if you listen to the people promoting the opportunities or read the books touting the millions you can make you would think that it's easy money. It's not. People are often introduced to network marketing by friends or family. If they do any research at all it's generally by doing an internet search and often discovering the answers they want to find. The information you encounter online consists of people who are doing the opportunity praising it, those doing something else bashing it and still others telling you would succeed beyond your wildest dreams if only you would sign up for their training program. Listening to any of them is akin to believing the shill in a three-card-Monte game with similar results. So how can you tell if a home-business opportunity is worth pursuing or simply worthless? You determine doing a careful (and unbiased) evaluation of the company, its product or service, and the opportunity itself. The vast majority of them are not worth pursuing and some are outright scams. This book will help you sort through the clutter to find that rare opportunity that might actually work for you. The step-by-step evaluation process described here will help you choose a program that will provide you with a real chance of success, but first you have to take the blinders off.

Book excerpt: After a decade of making documentaries about offbeat characters on the fringes of US society, Louis had the urge to return to America and track down the people who most fascinated him. It would be a reunion tour, but this time without the cameras and the sense of performance being filmed inevitably brings. It would allow him to get closer to people, to discover what really motivated them and what had happened to the assorted dreamers, outlaws and eccentrics since he last saw them. On a journey that took him from the porn sets of Los Angeles to the gangsta rappers of Memphis, from a convention of UFO contactees in Arizona to Northern Idaho for a festive get-together of neo-Nazis, he asked what 'weird people' have to tell us about our own secret natures. Had he learned anything about himself by being among them? Do we choose our beliefs or do our beliefs choose us? Louis Theroux's first book is a hilarious, thought-provoking and at times surreal voyage into the heart of weirdness.

Richard Warren draws from his own extensive experience in the business and adds stories and insights from other rehabbers to present a complete picture of what rehabbing for profit is really like. Whether you are just beginning in real estate investment or have already completed several projects of your own, A Rehabber's Tale is a must read for everyone looking to build wealth through renovating real estate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of West Indian immigrants to the United States is generally considered to be a great success. Mary Waters, however, tells a very different story. She finds that the values that gain first-generation immigrants initial success--a willingness to work hard, a lack of attention to racism, a desire for education, an incentive to save--are undermined by the realities of life and race relations in the United States. Contrary to long-held beliefs, Waters finds, those who resist Americanization are most likely to succeed economically, especially in the second generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the nationally bestselling author of The True Memoirs of Little K, a deeply felt and historically detailed novel of family, loss, and love, told by an irrepressible young girl—the daughter of a two-bit gangster and a movie showgirl—growing up in golden-age Hollywood and Las Vegas in its early days. Esme Silver has always taken care of her charming ne’er-do-well father, Ike Silver, a small-time crook with dreams of making it big with Bugsy Siegel. Devoted to her daddy, Esme is often his "date" at the racetrack, where she amiably fetches the hot dogs while keeping an eye to the ground for any cast-off tickets that may be winners. In awe of her mother, Dina Wells, Esme is more than happy to be the foil who gets the beautiful Dina into meetings and screen tests with some of Hollywood’s greats. When Ike gets an opportunity to move to Vegas—and, in what could at last be his big break, to help the man she knows as "Benny" open the Flamingo Hotel—life takes an unexpected turn for Esme. A stunner like her mother, the young girl catches the attention of Nate Stein, one of the Strip’s most powerful men. Narrated by the twenty-year-old Esme, The Magnificent Esme Wells moves between pre–WWII Hollywood and postwar Las Vegas—a golden age when Jewish gangsters and movie moguls were often indistinguishable in looks and behavior. Esme’s voice—sharp, observant, and with a quiet, mordant wit—chronicles the rise and fall and further fall of her complicated parents, as well as her own painful reckoning with love and life. A coming-of-age story with a tinge of noir, and a tale that illuminates the promise and perils of the American dream and its dreamers, The Magnificent Esme Wells is immersive, moving, and compelling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six were taken. Eleven years later, five come back--with no idea of where they've been. A riveting mystery for fans of We Were Liars. Eleven years ago, six kindergartners went missing without a trace. After all that time, the people left behind moved on, or tried to. Until today. Today five of those kids return. They're sixteen, and they are . . . fine. Scarlett comes home and finds a mom she barely recognizes, and doesn't really recognize the person she's supposed to be, either. But she thinks she remembers Lucas. Lucas remembers Scarlett, too, except they're entirely unable to recall where they've been or what happened to them. Neither of them remember the sixth victim, Max--the only one who hasn't come back. Which leaves Max's sister, Avery, wanting answers. She wants to find her brother--dead or alive--and isn't buying this whole memory-loss story. But as details of the disappearance begin to unfold, no one is prepared for the truth. This unforgettable novel--with its rich characters, high stakes, and plot twists--will leave readers breathless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timothy Morton argues that ecological awareness in the present Anthropocene era takes the form of a strange loop or Möbius strip, twisted to have only one side. Deckard travels this oedipal path in Blade Runner (1982) when he learns that he might be the enemy he has been ordered to pursue. Ecological awareness takes this shape because ecological phenomena have a loop form that is also fundamental to the structure of how things are. The logistics of agricultural society resulted in global warming and hardwired dangerous ideas about life-forms into the human mind. Dark ecology puts us in an uncanny position of radical self-knowledge, illuminating our place in the biosphere and our belonging to a species in a sense that is far less obvious than we like to think. Morton explores the logical foundations of the ecological crisis, which is suffused with the melancholy and negativity of coexistence yet evolving, as we explore its loop form, into something playful, anarchic, and comedic. His work is a skilled fusion of humanities and scientific scholarship, incorporating the theories and findings of philosophy, anthropology, literature, ecology, biology, and physics. Morton hopes to reestablish our ties to nonhuman beings and to help us rediscover the playfulness and joy that can brighten the dark, strange loop we traverse.
