Okay, but..........2003-05-04
This book covers some of the basics, but you also need Beitler's "Strategic Organizational Change."
Managing Change at Work Revised Edition.......2000-05-15
This really was a fifty-minute book, but it was packed with well thought-out skills and strategies. It is a book that you will be able to turn to again and again for tips and tricks to use as different situations come up during organizational changes. The topics not only prepare you for change, they guide you through it and position you for the future. You will be able to identify your own style and recognize areas that need to be improved to facilitate change allowing you to create a one-minute advantage over your competitors. It covers not only how to deal with people and their attitudes but also topics as important as establishing an action plan. I recommend this book to anyone that needs a simple, concise guide to help move their company forward in today's and tomorrow's fast-paced competitive environment.

Book Description
Once nobody noticed Santa Rosa's Thunder. They were a ragtag team of girls who wanted to play soccer, and no one took them seriously. Their male coach expected little from his "ladies, " and their mediocre performance convinced them he was right.
Then a kind of miracle happened. Emiria Salzmann, Thunder's new coach, a top player herself, knew what it took to win--discipline, relentless drills, thigh-burning sprints, and an inspired passing game. The girls hated it, but their coach never let up. Tough and determined, she showed them what it felt like to be winners--and they loved it. As the momentum grew with a string of victories, the girls thrived on the competition, believing they had the right stuff to become champions.
They were right! With spirits soaring, Thunder won its league on the last day of the season and headed for the state cup, emerging not just as powerful athletes but as strong, confident, emotionally healthy human beings--champions in the game of soccer, and in the game of life.

The Beautiful Game.......2006-12-08
The Beautiful Game by Jonathan Littman is a very compelling and well described book. It is very easy for me to relate because as a soccer play I have won state cup three times. I can also relate because I know the journey and the obstacles you have to overcome to be a champion. I relate best to the player Kim because she had to suffer with an injury, exactly what i have been going through. I think why I liked this book so much is because I have a lot in common with these girls, and I have a love and passion for soccer. I recommend this book to any soccer player, or anybody who is chasing after a dream.
An Absolute Inspiration.......2005-09-15
I think this book, The Beautiful Game, was an extraordinary display of a group of 14-year-old girls, who came together as a magnificent soccer team, to overcome a new coach, and many of the road bumps they had on the highway to success. This soccer team was extremely committed and dedicated, not only to the game of soccer, but to each other. And that is the key to playing competitive club soccer. I especially enjoyed this story about this club team called Thunder, because I also play club soccer in Dallas, Texas. My club is called the Dallas Texans (West). I am a '92, which makes me 14 in January. I was incredibly inspired by this book to train as hard as I can, and I learned that getting along with my team is very important. I was also very interested in this book because it must have taken a lot of courage to accomplish what these girls did. I was very fascinated by how well this book was written, and how much I felt like I knew every one of the girls on this team. I think I enjoyed this book because I can relate it to my own experiences. But I don't think you have to be a soccer player to have you heart touched by the lives of the girls in this story. And I also don't think you have to be an athlete to be inspired by the soccer these girls learned to play. This book should be passed down from generation to generation. The Beautiful Game is a phenomenal display of what soccer and true friendship is really about. I overall enjoyed this book because of its amazing life story of the club soccer team Thunder, and its talented 14-year-old players.
I was there........2004-04-19
I am the mom of one of the players and have just recently re-read this book about my daughter's team. Looking back on our Thunder experience, I know that it was a unique, almost surreal experience. At the time, we knew it was special but of course, you can't fully appreciate it until it is over. After winning State Cup, Thunder continued to grow and develop as a team, winning several major tournaments and getting back to the State Cup finals in 2000 only to lose to the Placer Sharks. I still see many of the girls and most agree that Thunder was an experience that shaped their life. It wasn't just the soccer or the incredible success the team had, it was more than that. It was the relationships, the experience, and the unique bond that is formed when a group comes together with a unifying goal. It is that undefinable, special something that takes just a talented team and makes it into a great team. So, for those readers that wonder, did it work out okay? I think, for the families that I am close, that yes, yes it did. We are better for the experience.
Inspiring, Amazing.......2003-11-17
This was one of th most fantasic books I have read in a while. It show how deticated you have to be to go all out in a sport and how good you can get if you have a good coach. I read the book, and a year later I got a really tough coach. I was temted to quit the team because of the endless running but I remembered how much the coach in this book put the tea through and how far they got, and I kept with it. I have gotten really far and I am still on the team. This is the most wonderful and well written book about teen soccer out there.
Disappointing Beauty.......2003-07-03
I am a girls high school and club coach and I had high hopes for this book, maybe for inspiration, maybe for insight or ideas on how to train my players. I came out with neither. This is a typical story of undisciplined kids that get someone to discipline them and then they become successful. It is very, very close to the same story line and tactics in the movie Hoosiers, only with a young girls soccer team. It does throw in some interesting perspectives about club team rivalries and California soccer, but they are not relevant to other states soccer experience. The types of teams and seasons overlapping do not happen in any state around me.
I agree with a previous post that if it was told 5 years after the season and through the eyes of the players it might be a little better. But we never relly know how it affected the kids. How did it help them? How did it help them mature as adults? Where are they now?
Most important to me is the impression this might leave for other coaches. This is not necessarily the best way to deal with a girls team. Sometimes it works, others it doesnt. I hope this does not encourage all coaches to do this with girls teams...
The positive about his book is in the things parents could learn from this book. I did think the dealing with parents and the attitudes of some parents was humorously accurate. I would suggest all soccer parents read this book and I would suggest players might learn some from this book. But it really could have been alot better...

Love/Hate book.......2007-02-10
Depending on the author, you would either love or hate this book. I had it for EN101 and it is a really good book to base your essays and portfolio on.
Beware "Ways of Brainwashing" student turned teacher.......2005-11-29
The essays in this book aren't particularly enlightening; however, they are often misused not to start debate or critical thinking, but rather to show students "what they SHOULD learn and feel about the topics." I didn't like any of the essays in this book because they didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. I am already the product of a democratic, public education. Thus, I am tolerant and accepting of others' views and opinions. I don't need tolerance beaten into me over the course of a semester. This book should only be used for the formerly home-schooled and religious right, as it will only open worlds for them.
In sum, this book is best used for what I can only assume it was originally intended - as a yule log. My fondest memories of this book were in the burning of it after Christmas dinner in 1999. Book burning is one human right not mentioned in any of the essays in this book - perhaps it should be.
From a Teacher.......2004-04-30
I have used this book to teach a freshman writing and reading course at a liberal arts school. Because of the difficulty of many of the texts, it was met by my students with little fanfare. While a few of the pieces are clearly too much for the average freshman (Foucault comes first to mind), most can be used effectively to get them to discuss issues. I have found that the students would rather talk in generals and universals than with the intricate arguments that some of the writers brilliantly present.
This is one of the those books that if you decide to use it in a class, then you better be prepared to not only sink with the ship but also be able to provide an inspiring tour of the ruins.
Challenging, yet rewarding read.......2004-02-14
I had to read this book for my upper division journalism class this fall and found it to be one of the best books that we used in the course. The editors have tried to collect well-written, intelligent documentaries that challenge traditional connections between words and photographs.
Included are Edward Said's inspiring piece about the Palestinian holocaust and exile, a piece by Roland Barthes about the meaning of photograph, "Let Us Speak Now of Famous Men," and many others. Although some pieces are better than others, Barthes' piece is more exciting and informative than Marianne Hirsch's writing on the way that children are used in photography. Over all, the collection is a rewarding and challenge book that could be used for any upper division class. (Maybe the reason that previous reviewers did not like the book is that it was not intended for first year college composition classes.)
Blah, Blah, Blah.......2004-02-14
I had to read this book for my Freshman lit/comp class and it is by far the most pathetic collection of essays every gathered. It is almost unreadable, pretentious, and laughable. It is a collection of essays by writers who think considerably more of themselves then they are due. Subsequently they choose to use language that "shows" how much smarter they think they are.
Product Description
This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A782453. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The goals of the Office of Naval Research sponsored Adaptive Architectures for Command and Control (A2C2) research project are to study current and future joint command and control (C2) issues and develop theories about adaptive C2 architectures. The project includes three tiers of model-based human-in-the-loop experiments ranging from ones using simple, highly abstract computer-based simulations (Tier I), through more complex, realistic simulations (Tier II), to involvement in wargames and operational experiments (Tier III). Three Tier I experiments have been conducted to date, and a fourth is in planning. All have employed the Distributed Dynamic Decisionmaking III simulation, developed for this type of experiment, and all have involved variants of the same amphibious scenario. The purpose of this thesis is to help the A2C2 research team prepare for Tier II experiments. The target platform for Tier II is the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Tactical Warfare Simulator (MTWS), a detailed and highly realistic stochastic simulation designed to train decision-makers. The author investigated the degree to which Tier I techniques and procedures can be transitioned to Tier II/ MTWS by adapting the A2C2 scenario to the MTWS environment. This thesis also discusses extracting experimental data from MTWS.

Book Description
A summer mystery, set on the shores of a Northern Ontario lake. Thirteen-year-old Leia Greenway can hardly believe her luck! First, her mother finally agreed to buy the old cottage on Lake Wasamak. And now, her brothers, Tim and Hugo, have come down with the chicken pox. Since neither of the boys can finish the school year, the entire family is getting a jump on the summer break! On theirfirst day at the cottage, Leia meets Cass Marlan-a spunky, outdoorsy, environmentally-conscious girl whose family has been summering at Wasamak for generations. Before long, the Greenways are embroiled in Cass's plan to save a piece of land-known locally as the old Indian village-from development. But it's no easy task. Not only do they need to prove that the Indian village actually existed, Leia, Cass, Tim, and Hugo must also fight against local business interests and some less-than-friendly characters, including a sullen boy who's staying at the biggest, fanciest cottage on the lake.
