Captain Rob Anderson spills the beans on a lifetime of incidents, accidents and shenanigans of every type, in every ocean of the world, during an era when the seas were largely unregulated and more like the Wild West than anything witnessed on land. Since he first went to sea at 15 Captain Rob has been a magnet for trouble but, somewhat preposterously, as matter, he has more often been the one responsible for keeping each enterprise afloat and picking up the pieces when the ships hit the fan. Whether it's stashing a headless body in the freezer, losing another body before a sea burial, accidentally sabotaging the annual Roebuck Bay Hotel Race in Broome, nearly losing his scrotum in a Japanese spa, or catapulting a mate off the roof of his truck when racing from the dock for last orders...it was all part of the job for Captain Rob. No wonder, when it eventually came time to 'swallow the anchor' he got as far inland as he practically could!

More than a million people start a small business every year. Unfortunately, about the same number go out of business every year. The mortality rate for small businesses is high because most entrepreneurs don't know what to do when the shit hits the fan ...and it always does. There are things that are going to happen that no textbook will ever warn you about, because no small business operates like the textbooks say it should. After 30 years running his own small businesses and helping others with theirs, Barry Thomsen has seen all the things that can go wrong, all the solutions that just don't work, and all the ways to keep the doors open...if only for another month. There is much more to starting, running, and succeeding at a business than buying a nice sign and ordering business cards. There are many commonsense answers to the everyday problems that affect most small businesses. An owner must meet these head-on...or head them off before they start. When the Shit Hits the Fan! will help you survive when it seems as though bullets are coming from every direction at once. You'll learn tried-and-true ways to deal with everything from poor cash flow, bad publicity, and unanticipated market changes to problem employees, irate customers, and weather disasters.

Despite the bitter winter in South Lick, Indiana, business is still hot at Robbie Jordan’s restaurant. But when another murder rattles the small town, can Robbie defrost the motives of a cold-blooded killer? Before she started hosting dinners for Indiana University’s Sociology Department at Pans ‘N Pancakes, Robbie never imagined scholarly meetings could be so hostile. It’s all due to Professor Charles Stilton, who seems to thrive on heated exchanges with his peers and underlings, and tensions flare one night after he disrespects Robbie’s friend, graduate student Lou. So when Robbie and Lou go snowshoeing the next morning and find the contentious academic frozen under ice, police suspect Lou might have killed him after their public tiff. To prove her friend’s innocence, Robbie is absorbing local gossip about Professor Stilton’s past and developing her own thesis on the homicide—even if that means stirring up terrible danger for herself along the way . . .

Half witch / half vampire, Valerie Hannigan was still trying to wrap her head around the fact that she was matednever mind that she was mated to a beautiful blond-haired, blue eyed dragon-shifting man who actually loved her. There was nothing she would have wanted more than to focus on him alone, but her aunts were fighting to save a dying dragons life, an Enclave dealing with a bitchy dragons insults and overtures toward her mate, and one dragon who posed more than a passing threat now as he had five hundred years ago. She and Trey had more things to focus on than just each other. However, with Treys fertility cycle coming to a close and her fathers pressure to fly to Los Angeles for a visit, there were even more challenges and threats ahead. Nobody would ever say that her life was boring.

A BREATHTAKINGLY CLEAR ANALYSIS OF TODAY’S ONGOING ECONOMIC CRISIS In this updated edition of Capitalism Hits the Fan, Professor Wolff explains why capitalism's global crisis persists, why bank bailouts and austerity policies fail, and why deepening economic inequality now generates historic social tensions and conflicts and worsens the ongoing crisis. This book chronicles one economist’s growing alarm and insights as he watched, from 2005 onwards, the economic crisis build, burst, and then change the world. The argument here differs sharply from most other explanations offered by politicians, media commentators, and other academics. Step by step, Wolff shows that deep economic structures—the relationship of wages to profits, of workers to boards of directors, and of debts to income—account for the crisis. The book’s essays engage the long-overdue public discussion about capitalism as a system and about the basic structural changes needed not only to fix today’s broken economy but to prevent future crises.
