Since we spend at least half our waking lives on the job, we ought to like what we do. Fun on the job, in fact, ought to be a precondition for our careers. Whether you work within or help create a working environment, that environment simply must be a place where fun is not only an acceptable but an encouraged attitude on the part of the people in your organization.…
Anne Lamott said, “Good literature substitutes for an experience which we have not ourselves lived through.” Good literature allows individuals to live through events which they have not encountered in their lives. I agree with this quote because I believe it is true. This quote is shown to be true through the books, Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. In both pieces of literature, characters had an experience which we haven’t had or been through. Books help us understand the situations that we haven’t faced yet.…
A teenager with a death wish and a 79-year-old high on life find love in Hal Ashby's cult black comedy. Deadpan rich boy Harold (Bud Cort) keeps staging elaborate suicide tableaux to get the attention of his mother (Vivian Pickles), but she keeps planning his brilliant future for him instead. Obsessed with the trappings of death, Harold freaks out his blind dates, modifies his new sports car to look like a mini-hearse, and attends funerals, where he meets the spirited Maude (Ruth Gordon). An eccentric to the core, Maude lives exactly as she pleases, with avid collecting and nude modeling among her many pursuits. To the disgust of Harold's relatives and the befuddlement of Harold's shrink, Harold falls in love with her. As lilting Cat Stevens tunes play on the soundtrack, Maude teaches Harold a valuable lesson about making the most of his time on earth.…

Artemis fowl is the heir to a multi-national criminal empire. He is witty, cunning and just when you think your one step ahead of him you are ten steps behind. He has outsmarted many of the world’s criminal elite in just fourteen years and if given the opportunity he will do the same to you no matter who you are. The book is about saving a super computer that Jon spiro, multi-billionaire computer designer and manufacturer stole from artemis.jon would have already broken into the computer if Artemis hadn’t built an eternity code into it. This eternity code is by name supposed to take eternity to break. The setting for most of the book is in the Spiro tower in New York, but there are many other places the book takes place too. The author doesn’t really specify when the book takes place exactly but after reading it I would say that it takes place in modern day united states, sometime around 2009 up to now. The main character is Artemis fowl; he is extremely outgoing and VERY witty. He reminds me very much of Courtney budgel because in the book he shows many of the qualities that Courtney does in day to day life like being smart with people in general and being two steps ahead of everyone. The main conflict is that Artemis is having problems getting back the computer because the Spiro tower is heavily guarded and very secure and also the fact that he is locked in a vault like prison cell 80 floors down from where the computer is being held. The authors writing style is very easy to follow, he writes in a slow paced way that is never hard to understand so if you get confused with other books I would recommend this series to you’d would say I like this book mainly because of the authors writing style and also its very easy to get into aswell,its very similar to the writing style of Suzanne Collins .I would say that the theme is that friendship trumps wealth because artemis almost…
