Trust is dead. Now what? If you're trying to sell something--whether it 's a product, a service, or an idea--you are facing a new era of consumers who listen less and question more. Armed with more knowledge and jaded by a lifetime of unfulfilled promises, these consumers reject the traditional approach to sales and marketing. But what if you have something good to say and can't get beyond this skepticism? To engage today's consumer, a new language of trust is needed. In this groundbreaking audio book, you'll learn what words to use, what words to lose, and how to structure your message to overcome skepticism and build and keep the trust of your audience. -- Amazon.

Summary: The Irish have a long and proud history in America, and New Jersey is no exception. Beginning with the first Irish immigrants who settled in every corner of the state, this vital ethnic community has left an indelible mark on all facets of life in the Garden State. New Jersey's Irish natives expressed their own discontent over British oppression by fighting alongside colonists in the American Revolution. Brave Fenians fought to preserve their new home in the Civil War. New Jersey's Irish also have become professional athletes, Unites States representatives, religious leaders, spies and business trailblazers. Author and Irish heritage researcher Tom Fox relays these and other stories that demonstrate the importance of Ireland to the development of New Jersey and the United States.

Summary: "Transparent Things revolves around the four visits of the hero--sullen, gawky Hugh Person--to Switzerland... As a young publisher, Hugh is sent to interview R., falls in love with Armande on the way, wrests her, after multiple humiliations, from a grinning Scandinavian and returns to NY with his bride... Eight years later--following a murder, a period of madness and a brief imprisonment--Hugh makes a lone sentimental journey to wheedle out his past... The several strands of dream, memory, and time [are] set off against the literary theorizing of R. and, more centrally, against the world of observable objects."--Martin Amis.
