The Lion Shares $7.79 This is a collection of short stories covering just a few subjects in life, spanning the range of emotions. It is the authors wish that you enjoy the variety of stories, poems, and plays that dwell within the pages of this book. Inspiration for the words came from dreams, observations in life, and a glimpse of what may happen yet. The author wants to point out that a few of the characters speak in a very real way, and language perhaps inappropriate to younger readers will be found with. However, the characters were depicted as real and speak plainly and how they would converse if you were introduced to them. Heartfelt appreciation is given to the authors parents, sister, friends, and extended family members, both alive and deceased. They influenced the ideas of some stories and have been immortalized in spirit. The author would also like to send thanks to God, the Creator, Who made the brain of the author become inspired by the life he has lived, so far. Always remember that you may not know how you affect the life of another. Life is what we make of it. May you be given the opportunities to show others your potential and try to make a difference. Never forget: everyone you meet has a story to tell. It is up to them to want to tell the story, and up to you to care enough to listen, read about it, write it down, and remember. Thank you for the purchase of this book. |

He listed the sectors of the market that he thought were set for the biggest growth in the next 12 months. This year it is companies that benefit from a high A; mining services companies; takeover targets; infrastructure companies, energy stocks.Jim then run the companies listed on the ASX through an exhaustive search criteria and created watchlists for each of these sectors. This year for the very first time he is publishing these watchlists in this fascinating new book. By analysing the information on each share, investors are narrowing down the companies listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, to a more manageable number that they can then follow.Jim has also invited well-known financial adviser and commentator Marcus Padley to supply his watchlist of stocks he thinks will be great investments over the long term. Morningstar has supplied the company profiles. It’s all very well finding good companies but WHEN you actually purchase your shares in a company can make a huge difference to your returns. Jim teaches you how to recognise stocks in an all-important uptrend and time your entry into these stocks as they start to climb up.The All Ordinaries has increased more than 50% in the last nine months and with this strengthening market, Mum and Dad investors are returning to share buying.

Getting Over It $0.01 Helen Bradshaw isn’t exactly living out her dreams. She’s a lowly assistant editor at GirlTime magazine, she drives an ancient Toyota, and she has a history of choosing men who fall several thousand feet below acceptable boyfriend standard. Not to mention that she shares an apartment with a scruffy, tactless roommate, her best girlfriends are a little too perfect, and the most affectionate male in her life—her cat, Fatboy—occasionally pees in her underwear draw.Then Helen gets the telephone call she least expects: Her father has had a massive heart attack. Initially brushing off his death as merely an interruption in her already chaotic life (they were never very close, after all), Helen is surprised to find everything else starting to crumble around her. Her pushy mother is coming apart at the seams, a close friend might be heading toward tragedy, and, after the tequila incident, it looks as though Tom the vet will be sticking with Dalmatians. Turns out getting over it isn’t going to be quite as easy as she thought. |
