DOWNLOAD EBOOKCurrent Mood: Freaking out I am one of the coolest people you’ll ever meet. I love my Pinterest boards, tacos, and witty T-shirts. But perhaps the interesting thing about me is that I’m a zookeeper at one of the nation’s best zoos. A decidedly uncool thing about me is that I took an at home DNA test, hoping to find out more about my parents’ heritages, but instead found out that I have a genetic predisposition to developing cancer. While I’d like to ignore that elephant in the room, if I don’t do something soon, I’m going to miss out on my only chance to have a baby. There’s this one little thing … Up to this point, the only guy I’ve needed in my life to be hanging all over me and expecting me to take care of him is a sloth. I’m not saying that as a euphemism for a lazy, red-flag waving an, but an actual sloth named Barry. But as awesome as Barry is, he’s not really equipped to help me have a baby. Then, out of the blue, my work archnemesis, Xander Barnes, comes up with a solution to my problem. Except he’s the last person I’d ever accept any help from. But I’m running out of time, and Xander’s offer is making me wonder if a leopard can change his spots. This might be my last chance to get everything I’ve ever wanted. Plus tacos.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn Canada, the donut is often thought of as the unofficial national food. Donuts are sold at every intersection and rest stop, celebrated in song and story as symbols of Canadian identity, and one chain in particular, Tim Horton's, has become a veritable icon with over 2500 shops across the country. But there is more to the donut than these and other expressions of 'snackfood patriotism' would suggest. In this study, Steve Penfold puts the humble donut in its historical context, examining how one deep-fried confectionary became, not only a mass commodity, but an edible symbol of Canadianness. Penfold examines the history of the donut in light of broader social, economic, and cultural issues, and uses the donut as a window onto key developments in twentieth-century Canada such as the growth of a 'consumer society,' the relationship between big business and community, and the ironic qualities of Canadian national identity. He goes on to explore the social and political conditions that facilitated the rapid rise and steady growth of donut shops across the country. Based on a wide range of sources, from commercial and government reports to personal interviews, The Donut is a comprehensive and fascinating look at one of Canada's most popular products. It offers original insights on consumer culture, mass consumption, and the dynamics of Canadian history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNo Drug deal is worth dying for, was the first rule of the street that I chose to call a Street Smart rule and was one of ten informal rules which guided me through a career as a Federal Agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). In my book Breakfast in Kersey I detail these ten rules, the Street Smarts, that I deduced from actual street experience and incorporated them with anecdotal incidents which traced the highs and lows of my Special Agent career. In tracing my long career, the many facets of drug law enforcement are exposed; from the exciting and dangerous work of undercover to the rather mundane tasks such as long-term surveillance. Additionally, the highs and lows of a federal narcotics career are examined from the thrill of making a big seizure or arrest to the heartbreaking hardships that this job has on a family and personal life. And fi nally, I off er insights at the frustrations of the job such as inane policies and procedures established by a higher headquarters that tended to hinder investigations and, at times, agent safety to the petty bickering that existed between local, state and federal agencies over drug and or money seizures and jurisdiction. Interwoven into these facets are anecdotes, both humorous and sad but every one of them real allowing a keen insight as to what it was really like to toil in the realm of narcotics enforcement.
