"Can it still be hurricane season? Must be, because here come Serge A. Storms and his perpetually stoned bro, Coleman, in Tim Dorsey’s gonzo crime caper.” –New York Times Book ReviewThe “compulsively irreverent and shockingly funny” (Boston Globe) Tim Dorsey returns with an insanely entertaining tale in which the inimitable Serge A. Storms sees dead people and investigates a creepy urban myth that may be all too real.Though another devastating hurricane is raking Florida, its awesome power can’t stop the Sunshine State’s most loyal son, Serge A. Storms, from his latest scenic road trip: a cemetery tour. With his best bro Colman riding shotgun, Serge hits the highway in his ’69 gold Plymouth Satellite, putting pedal to the metal on a grand tour of the past.

For years, local children have whispered about a boogeyman hiding among the stalks. Could it be the same maniac known as Naked Florida man who’s been raising hell all over the place? There are few things Serge loves more than solving a good mystery and bestowing justice on miscreants who sully his beloved home’s good name. With his partner bong boy, Florida’s psycho superhero will find the truth in this hilariously violent delight—packed with history, lore, and plenty of motel antics—from the insanely ingenious Tim Dorsey.

You are a good person. You are one of the 84 million Americans who volunteer with a charity. You are part of a national donor pool that contributes nearly $200 billion to good causes every year. But you wonder: Why don't your efforts seem to make a differenceFifteen years ago, Robert Egger asked himself this same question as he reluctantly climbed aboard a food service truck for a night of volunteering to help serve meals to the homeless. He wondered why there were still people waiting in line for soup in this day and age. Where were the drug counselors, the job trainers, and the support team to help these men and women get off the streetsWhy were volunteers buying supplies from grocery stores when restaurants were throwing away unused fresh food every nightWhy had politicians, citizens, and local businesses allowed charity to become an end in itselfWhy wasn't there an efficient way to solve the problemRobert knew there had to be a better way. In 1989, he started the D.C. Central Kitchen by collecting unused food from local restaurants, caterers, and hotels and bringing it back to a central location where hot, nutritious meals were prepared and distributed to agencies around the city. Since then, the D.C. Central Kitchen has been named one of President Bush Sr.'s Thousand Points of Light and has become one of the most respected and emulated nonprofit agencies in the world, producing and distributing more than 4,000 meals a day. Its highly successful 12-week job-training program equips former homeless transients and drug addicts with culinary and life skills to gain employment in the restaurant business. In Begging for Change, Robert Egger looks back on his experience and exposes the startling lack of logic, waste, and ineffectiveness he has encountered during his years in the nonprofit sector, and calls for reform of this $800 billion industry from the inside out. In his entertaining and inimitable way, he weaves stories from his days in music, when he encountered legends such as Sarah Vaughan, Mel Torme, and Iggy Pop, together with stories from his experiences in the hunger movement -- and recently as volunteer interim director to help clean up the beleaguered United Way National Capital Area. He asks for nonprofits to be more innovative and results-driven, for corporate and nonprofit leaders to be more focused and responsible, and for citizens who contribute their time and money to be smarter and more demanding of nonprofits and what they provide in return. Robert's appeal to common sense will resonate with readers who are tired of hearing the same nonprofit fund-raising appeals and pity-based messages. Instead of asking the "who" and "what" of giving, he leads the way in asking the "how" and "why" in order to move beyond our 19th-century concept of charity, and usher in a 21st-century model of change and reform for nonprofits. Enlightening and provocative, engaging and moving, this book is essential reading for nonprofit managers, corporate leaders, and, most of all, any citizen who has ever cared enough to give of themselves to a worthy cause.

In their irresistible novel, Hot Property, Michele, Samantha, and Sabrina Kleier—the stars of HGTV’s hit real estate reality show Selling New York—bring readers past the doormen and into the glitz, gilding, and gossip of Manhattan society.Elizabeth Chase and her daughters, Kate and Isabel, are the leading ladies of New York City real estate. At Chase Residential, their family-run firm, they spend their days walking the city’s highest society through the most luxurious properties in the most fashionable neighborhoods. Though the town houses have marble floors and the co-ops park views, life behind closed doors isn’t always as glamorous as it seems. From the enigmatic Countess who just won’t make an offer to the billionaire mogul seeking more than an apartment from his lovely realtor, from backstabbing brokers to cutthroat bidding wars, the Chases’ work keeps them on their toes. But life is about to become even more complicated. Just as Isabel and her boyfriend decide to take the next step, Kate finds herself with a broken heart and an uncertain future. And when Chase Resi?dential’s very existence is threatened by a terrible betrayal, the family comes together to save the business that is at the center of each of their lives. Hot Property gives readers a peek inside the white-glove-protected doors of New York’s most exclusive enclaves—from the Upper East Side to Tribeca and back up to Central Park—while telling a story of family, loyalty, and all the other things money can’t buy.

At an event honoring Daisy Bates as 1990's Distinguished Citizen then-governor Bill Clinton called her "e;the most distinguished Arkansas citizen of all time."e; Her classic account of the 1957 Little Rock School Crisis, The Long Shadow of Little Rock, couldn't be found on most bookstore shelves in 1962 and was banned throughout the South. In 1988, after the University of Arkansas Press reprinted it, it won an American Book Award. On September 3, 1957, Gov. Orval Faubus called out the National Guard to surround all-white Central High School and prevent the entry of nine black students, challenging the Supreme Court's 1954 order to integrate all public schools. On September 25, Daisy Bates, an official of the NAACP in Arkansas, led the nine children into the school with the help of federal troops sent by President Eisenhower-the first time in eighty-one years that a president had dispatched troops to the South to protect the constitutional rights of black Americans. This new edition of Bates's own story about these historic events is being issued to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the Little Rock School crisis in 2007.

中国近现代科技转型可以通俗地称为“西学东渐”过程，大致经历了从传统科技转变为近现代科技的历史时期，或者说经历了两波西学东渐。 西学东渐波我们简称为“西学东渐”，这个历史时期又包括两个阶段： 其一，明末清初的“西学东渐”阶段； 其二，清代中叶的“西学东源”阶段。 卷着力讲述和分析的，就是上述两个阶段发生的人和事，试图表明：西学东渐在明末清初确实为中国近现代科技转型带来了可能性，曾经颇有生气，却在清代中叶终破灭。康乾盛世时不但在文化上排斥西方天主教，而且在科学上贬低和排斥西方学术思想。吊诡的是，乾嘉学派在经学研究的基础上，对中国古代科技典籍进行了充分的挖掘和整理，并且遵循康熙帝圣旨般的论断，对西方传教士传播进来的科学技术，特别是天文、历算、舆地等方面的成果，进行了特殊的阐释，竟然得出西学东源的结论。而“西学东渐”逐渐变为“西学东源”的过程，由“渐”而至“源”，恰好折射出这一波西学东渐逐渐衰亡的关键。实是无奈，乾嘉学派努力考证并恢复传统的科技体制和规范，结果是学术上成就卓著，却没有缩短中国与西方科技的差距，反而使近现代科技转型的可能夭折。总之，在西学东渐波，中国失去了通过吸纳西方的近现代科技来实现科技转型的可能。 而西学东渐第二波，我们简称为“师夷长技”。这个历史时期也可分为两个阶段，即从鸦片战争到辛亥革命的晚清阶段和从北洋政府到国民政府的民国阶段；为清晰起见，两阶段均可再一分为二，共分为晚清前期、清末时期、袁世凯和北洋政府时期、国民政府时期。西学东渐波之所以历经17世纪的一度生机勃勃，至18世纪所谓康乾盛世，反而走向式微，根本原因乃是大一统皇朝看似强大和稳定后，为保统治阶级和上层士绅的自身利益，自觉或不自觉地重走老路。他们看不到或者害怕承认别人比自己强，害怕体制和意识形态出现一丝缺口，科技领域也概莫能外，终以西学东源结束了西学东渐。 西学东渐波和第二波的一个根本区别是：前者的主体盲目自大，以治经学的路子对待传教士引进的西方科技，得出西学东源的结论，百年之后又回复原来的科技模式，科技转型终告失败；后者的主体自觉技不如人，通过输入、仿造、译介、留学、引进科学符号和方法、办现代教育、设研究院所等举措，锲而不舍，愈挫愈坚，不齿于以对手为师，努力学他人之长，在非常困难的条件下成功进行了移植，并从原有的科技模式中走了出来。西学东渐第二波的巨大成绩在于基本实现了中国科技的近现代转型，回首这百孔千疮的100年，在持续内忧外患的大背景下居然做到了这一点，简直令人难以置信。

Relentless and ominous, the drumbeat echoes across the land: Social Security is on the verge of bankruptcy. These repeated warnings have become a dismal article of faith for the millions of Americans who pay Social Security taxes and expect to collect benefits someday. But they are flatly untrue. Social Security today is on a stronger financial footing than it has been for decades. The Plot Against Social Security will explain who is really behind the efforts to reform this system and will show that the most frequently proposed fix increased privatization will damage it beyond repair by undermining retirement security for generations to come. Award-winning journalist Michael Hiltzik also offers a clear set of remedies for those few elements of Social Security that do need repair proposals that will shore up the most efficient social insurance program in America's history, rather than destroying it in the name of reform.
