Research indicates that only about thirty percent of Americans consider themselves to be financially healthy. In The Quest, Darren Key offers readers the good news that financial health is not some mythical entity that is always searched for but never found. It is real, it exists, and it can be achieved without winning a sweepstakes or the lottery. Achieving financial success requires leaving faulty thinking and bad choices behind and embarking on a better path. Using epic stories like The Wizard of Oz and The Hobbit, The Quest takes readers on a fun, life-changing journey to a place where financial health that honors God is not just a fairy tale but a blessed reality.
Move Over, Mickey. Deep inside Sleeping Beauty Castle, in rooms secretly built by Walt Disney himself, live the true champions of Disneyland. Not princes, not Imagineers, not Mickey. Cats. Cats of the Castle! Their mission: to preserve the magic of the park from the villains who would destroy it.
In the timeless shadows of the mines, distant screams glide across rock walls worn by running water and groping hands. Here where the sunlight never reaches, the picking of axes and dragging of chains is met by the wails of new slaves and the dying of the old. The guards' words echo off the walls as if from the dark heart of the mountain itself, crushing any hope of freedom: You are nothing here! You have no power and no chance of escape. Returning to his hometown defeated, penniless, and desperate, Decklen resolves to seek help from the only man strong enough to provide it - the elder of Leonesse. When he pleads his case to the elder, Decklen is not offered access to the town's resources as he had hoped. Instead, he is presented with an invitation - an offer to begin a quest to unlock eight scrolls and learn the secrets therein. But to do so, Decklen must find each key. Could it be that this quest will prepare him for the dangers ahead? But for two tenacious captives -- Decklen, a young man coping with the mistakes of his past, and Camberly, a feisty ten-year-old orphan -- escape from the mines is not a dream; it is their reality. However, Camberly's brother has accidentally been left behind. They must go back for him; they must free him from the debilitating darkness. But how can Decklen face the nightmare of the mines again?
Quinton is very excited. The young boy is making his way toward the Keep, a special fortress at the center of the realm. There, his father—a knight—waits to guide him through the fortress’s locked doors to behold a powerful treasure that is being guarded inside—the Golden Scroll. However, before Quinton can fully discover the power of this scroll, he is suddenly caught in the middle of an enemy attack. The forces of the Dark Master have come to destroy the Golden Scroll, which is the one thing that can stop them from conquering the land. Through a narrow escape, Quinton and his father flee the Keep with the special scroll in hand. But its absence from the Keep sets a new dilemma in motion—the empty fortress is now used by the Dark Master to spread an unrestrained cloud of darkness. Unless Quinton can discover the Golden Scroll’s power, and return it to the Keep, the land will soon fall under the shadow of tyranny. In this young person’s tale, the son of a knight begins a quest in which he discovers the key to overcoming the dark forces that threaten his land.
In 1948, when “Mrs. G.,” hospitalized with debilitating rheumatoid arthritis, became the first person to receive a mysterious new compound—cortisone—her physicians were awestruck by her transformation from enervated to energized. After eighteen years of biochemical research, the most intensively hunted biological agent of all time had finally been isolated, identified, synthesized, and put to the test. And it worked. But the discovery of a long-sought “magic bullet” came at an unanticipated cost in the form of strange side effects. This fascinating history recounts the discovery of cortisone and pulls the curtain back on the peculiar cast of characters responsible for its advent, including two enigmatic scientists, Edward Kendall and Philip Hench, who went on to receive the Nobel Prize. The book also explores the key role the Mayo Clinic played in fostering cortisone’s development, and looks at drugs that owe their heritage to the so-called “King of Steroids.”
"Quest for the Best is not just a nostalgic look, however, at the age of handcrafted elegance. Marcus gives good advice on how consumers can educate themselves about the best, demand it, and get it. He describes his own experiences with the best in chapters such as "The Things You Love to Touch" and "Bed and Board." Witty, urbane, but always accessible, Marcus is a joy to read."--BOOK JACKET.
Some have suggested that the turmoil in the eurozone "proves" the deficiencies in the welfare state. This book argues that the superior performance of the Scandinavian countries arises from their superior systems of social protection, which allow their citizens to undertake greater risk and more actively participate in globalization. Others suggest that we can address terrorism or transnational crimes through the strengthening of borders or long distance wars. This book develops the proposition that such approaches have the opposite effect and that only through spreading the kind of human security experienced in well-ordered societies can these dangers be managed. This book also examines how these global changes play out not only in the relations among countries and the management of globalization but at every level of our society--
Today, social media offers an alternative broadcast and communication medium for nonprofit advocacy organizations. At the same time, social media ushers in a "noisy" information era that renders it more difficult for nonprofits to make their voices heard. This book seeks to unpack the prevalence, mechanisms, and ramifications of a new model for nonprofit advocacy in a social media age. The keyword for this new model is attention. Advocacy always starts with attention: when an organization speaks out on a cause, it must ensure that it has an audience and that its voice is heard by that audience; it must ensure that current and potential supporters are paying attention to what it has to say before expecting more tangible outcomes. Yet the organization must also ensure that advocacy does not end with attention: attention should serve as a springboard to something greater. The authors elaborate how attention fits into contemporary organizations' advocacy work and explain the key features of social media that are driving the quest for attention. Developing conceptual models, they explain why some organizations and messages gain attention while others do not. Lastly, the book explores how organizations are weaving together online and offline efforts to deliver strategic advocacy outcomes.
