A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

More than 14,000 women and girls are being trafficked in the United States each year. They’re not always shipped in from different countries; a majority are from the United States. They are picked up by men who prey on women insecure with themselves, struggling to pay their bills in college, or are single mothers. The list goes on with the way these men convince women to sell their bodies in the streets or in the strip clubs of America. In No More Games, author Sariah Lanae Hastings shares her story as a survivor of human trafficking. In this memoir, she tells how at eighteen she officially became a prostitute. For twenty years, she was trapped in “The Game,” being beaten and raped by men. Hastings narrates how God intervened, showed his grace, and helped her leave the sex trafficking life. No More Games chronicles Hastings’ fight for freedom and how she now helps other women find a way out. She wants others to know there is hope, and they can be saved and freed from bondage.
