Great Book.......2004-05-26
I used this book in my International Business Transactions class in law school, and think it is excellent. It covers alot of material and helps students learn by first presenting them with a problem and then giving them direction to analyze and find solutions.

Book Description
Provides law teachers with a relatively simple, easy to use casebook to teach U.S. international taxation. The field is notoriously complex—more so, perhaps, than any other area of Federal tax law. The focus is on how the details of the tax law fit into a broader structure, which is described in the introduction. Enables students to fit the particular issues they are working on into a larger context, to develop an intuition for where the problem areas may lie.
Book Description
The core of this book consists of the provisions of "Subchapter J," the relevant portion of the Internal Revenue Code (sections 641 through 692), and its first priority is to give readers an understanding of those provisions and how they work. This text takes four distinct, but integrated, approaches. At the beginning of each section, the book presents assignments of carefully selected provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations. Following are one or more precedents (cases or rulings) dealing with the topic at hand accompanied by textual material that amplifies the topic by further analysis of the primary precedent(s), presentation of other precedents, or discussion of subsequent developments. Finally, numerous problems, where appropriate, allow the reader to apply the material to actual fact patterns.
The book is ideal for use in courses dealing with federal income taxation of trusts and estates. Those who wish to pursue tax policy will find ample material with which to work.

Book Description
Gregg Bachman and Thomas J. Slater present an array of essays that reveal the incredible complexity of silent films and the era in which they were produced. Essentially, silent films conjure the names of Mary Pickford and a few white men, including Charlie Chaplin and D. W. Griffith. These eleven essays, however, demonstrate that minorities and women other than Pickford also responded to the times through film. The contributors deal with changing American society at a crucial time, examining our hopes and fears as a nation during the silent film era.
Opening new vistas, this book introduces us to people, films, issues, and concepts that few of us have encountered. One example is screenwriter June Mathis, who wrote more than one hundred scripts, brought Rudolph Valentino to stardom, and supervised all productions at the Goldwyn Studios in 1923. Equally intriguing is Nita Naldi, whose career and tragic life speak volumes about America’s combined fascination with and fear of ethnic minorities. Other key players in the drama of silent films include John Randolph Bray (animated cartoons), Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle, and female producer, writer, and director Nell Shipman.
Contributors are Kay Armatage, Jean Chateauvert, Maureen Furniss, Mark Langer, Anne Morey, Diane Negra, George Potamianos, Joanna Rapf, Thomas J. Slater, Sam Stoloff, and Judith Thissen.
Seventeen illustrations enliven this study of silent film.

Some comedy value.......2007-08-05
I bought this book based on its claim to provide mathematically sound analysis of gambling games, based on stock market strategies.
Reading it led me to the conclusion that the author does not have even rudimentary knowledge of probability, expectation or house percentage. His "analysis" consists of doing sets of 100 rolls of dice on his kitchen table!
He then goes on to the inescapable conclusion (to him) that the casinos are "cheating", since his schemes don't work there.
I was so disgusted that I took the time to complain to the publisher, and ended up corresponding to the author himself, who repeated those claims. I even took the time to do a trivial analysis of his "half-peak" system, together with some extensive computer runs, just to show him how bad the systems are.
Pure drivel.......2004-08-22
This book looks interesting at first but after reading and re-reading it and studying and testing the various systems offered I can honestly say the book is worthless and you will lose a lot of money if you try Lembeck's systems at a casino, which the author admits he doesn't even do himself. Furthermore his assertions of "rigged" tables and that "you must stay invisible" and hop from table to table to place each bet are as ludicrous as his systems. The casinos have enough of a mathematical edge to all their games that they have no reason to rig anything, and I personally have sat with pad and paper at the roulette and baccarat tables hundreds of times taking notes and openly playing systems in full view of the players, the dealer, the pit boss and eye in the sky; short of using a computer or cell phone, the casinos could care less what you do at the roulette and baccarat tables because they are not worried about you beating them with a system, at least that has been my experience where I gamble in CT.
Almost useless.......2004-04-28
The author takes the old D'Alembert system (he doesn't even spell it right)and lists various bet choices in casino games where you can try it. What's remarkable is that he recommends NOT trying many of the variations he suggests in the book. He then goes on to admit that this system, which has been proven over and over to fail (like any other progression), actually doesn't work in a real casino, and then tries to blame casino cheating! That, combined with his religious rantings that have nothing whatever to do with the subject at hand, lead me to seriously question this guy's grip on reality. In fact, one wonders why someone who is so worried about Satan and evil is encouraging gambling in the first place. His "Mathematical Analysis" sections contain neither math nor analysis. Send me your money instead and I'll recommend much, much better books.
Read this and ye shall know all.......2003-07-02
I had gotten this book from the library about 6 years ago. After running it through the paces of a computer program, I did find that his systems do work.
The systems are based on what goes up, must come down. Well, in real life, that is not always true, at least in your bankrolls time frame. You must use money management. Also, I have found that you MUST run several progressions at the same time. It helps you ride out the ones that have gone a bit long losing.
I found his talk about poss. rigged casinos a bit dated. This was also written before online gambling, which would have been nice. He mentioned several times about the minimum table limits being too high, but they aren't too high online. Too bad those games were avoided because of this.
His talk of God and other things eternal I thought was well done, and did not go on. Plus, you can skip right over it to the systems. Would like to compare notes with others sep2034athotmail.
Good.......2002-01-30
The systems really work, that's why I gave it 5 stars, but it's too full of syrup to be a really enjoyable read.

Battle Front 2: Game Guide.......2006-11-12
I found this manual very helpful, a nicely detailed walkthrough and maps that make sense, generally very usefull especially when you are stuck.
Simple; easy to use........2006-02-25
This is a simple and easy to use strategy guide. What a strategy guide should be, complete and thorough.
great strategies!.......2006-01-23
Star wars battle front 2 is a good game and the game guide is just as good.do not listen to these people.Lets say you are a jedi and lets say your mace windo.it will tell you the quickest way to kill CIS droids.This game guide gives specific details and great maps.
Pretty Good.......2006-01-21
I agree with the other guy who wrote this review also....you don't realy need the walk through part. I think that the vehicle and character descriptions are helpful though.
Intresting.......2006-01-11
I'm terribly sorry, but this is just one of those games that does'nt really need a guide. The layout and gameplay are simple, and the need for a walkthrough is rather moot. It is an good way to pick up odd hints or if you can't find something, but much of the info and "exclusive tips" are rather obvious. "wrap the AT-AT" or "try to get the hero". I mean, duhhhhhh. Of course you want to do those things. It's a waste of money unless you can find it dirt cheap. Save for a game instead.
