Daniel Coyle demystifies the culture-building process by identifying three key skills that generate cohesion and cooperation and explains how diverse groups learn to function with a single mind. Coyle offers specific strategies that trigger learning, spark collaboration, build trust and drive positive change. The Culture Code offers a map for creating an environment where innovation flourishes, problems get solved, and expectations are exceeded.
Sustained market leadership requires the cohesion and cooperation of a diverse employee population that can "function with a single mind."
Initial attempts at collaboration can often be undermined by status management as participants get sidetracked by trying to figure out where they "fit into the larger picture." Worrying about who's in charge and the rules of play becomes more important than focusing on the task at hand.
The author proposes that maintaining a safe environment that supports constructive and inclusive dialogue in an atmosphere of fun and mutual support will eliminate the need for status management. The emphasis here is on doing rather than committing to do.
Actions as simple as listening closely, recognizing individual contributions and even picking up trash (as McDonald's founder Ray Kroc and UCLA basketball coach John Wooden were renowned for doing) can send a strong message of inclusivity –– specifically that no one's too important for the most menial task.
Posturing and sugar-coated interactions waste time and send confusing messages to those receiving the feedback. Candor, while avoiding brutal honesty, is more impactful and preserves the environment of safety and belonging built in the first skill. This will only work if the foundation of trust is in place, and navigating the line between candor and brutal honesty will take practice.
Building safety addresses the need for cohesion, and sharing vulnerability enables cooperation, but this only leaves the organization as a highly primed entity. Without a clear sense of what it's all for, this newly developed ability to "function with a single mind" can quickly dissipate.
The example of the Johnson & Johnson Credo, written in 1943 by Robert Wood Johnson, demonstrates how powerful 311 words can be in establishing a clear purpose for an entire organization. The fact that the company was guided by that same Credo in responding to the 1982 crisis of Extra-Strength Tylenol capsules laced with cyanide sets it apart from all other carefully worded corporate value statements.
Coyle draws attention to the impact of "highpurpose environments," where employees are surrounded by powerful and vivid reminders of both present moments and future ideals. For Pixar, it's the 20-foot-tall model of the Luxo Lamp at the main entrance of their campus. For the U.S. Navy SEAL headquarters, it's a piece of a twisted girder from the 9/11 bombing of the World Trade Center.
These are more than just reminders of past efforts. They are powerful signals, often accompanied by catchphrases and organization-specific terminology, that serve as reinforcements and motivators of the current goals.

"Like a Boss" is the Example of a Funny Cast in an Unfunny Movie
No one could have told me that putting Tiffany Haddish, Rose Byrne, Jennifer Coolidge, Billy Porter, and Salma Hayek in a movie together would have left me flat and devoid of belly aching laughter. Tiffany Haddish (Mia) is the mouthy, neck rolling "don't make me check you" girl we fell in love with during Girl's Trip and Billy Porter (Barret) will check you with no problem but it just wasn't enough.
Like a Boss details two entrepreneur best friends who operate an Atlanta based makeup company. Mia (Tiffany Haddish) the creative one has no desire to learn the "business" of the store while Mel (Rose Byrne) is the number cruncher and almost sensible one.
The best friend duo met in middle school and remained inseparable like sisters. Mel in fact moved in with Mia due to her mother's drug addiction and the two currently remain in the same house. They reminisce with friends as it seems that they might be stuck while their friends have moved on with their lives.
In walks the cosmetic guru, Claire Luna (Salma Hayek) with a monetary offer to help the business and Mel is eager to take it. As the numbers cruncher she knows that the business is quickly heading to bankruptcy. Mia of course has no interest but agrees to the meeting and later signs the contract after making changes.
This rescue came at a price that the duo could not afford and it created a rift in their friendship. Claire Luna (Salma Hayek) realizes that the plan to take over the company is on the right path when they fire Barrett (Billy Porter) with no remorse. She continues to press their button individually as she gets dangerously closely to becoming the new owner.
Who Should See "Like a Boss"?
This movie is not recommended for children under the age of 16 but it' s great for a Girl's Night Out. It is not void of messages that women talk about often around a bottle of wine or a meal. Are they regretful of following their business dreams and not focusing on building a family like their friends.
Will "Like a Boss" Make you Laugh?
There are a few moments of laughter here and there but it's not gut belly laughter. The plot is simple and you can almost predict what will happen. Barrett (Billy Porter) will keep you amused as only he can. My favorite scene is where he walks out on his bosses after being fired due to mass production.
What I Liked About "Like a Boss"
Despite the predictable moments and ending, I loved the female empowerment and importance of friendship that was presented throughout. Navigating childhood friendships can be heard as we mature and this was a reflection that women can work together.
The theme of entrepreneurship amongst the women despite the hiccups is a powerful message that can not be neglected. America needs more businesses that maintain their ethics and passion.
And we can't neglect that their success was not based on a man and there was pretty much little to no romance involved. I guess you could say it was a platonic romance amongst friends.
"Like a Boss" is in theaters nationwide. Go check it out and let me know your thoughts.

Inquisitor (Witch & Wolf Book 2) by R J Blain
"I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing." ― Albert Camus, The Plague
"No one thinks of how much blood it costs." – Dante Alighieri
"Can you please ask James to return to the lab?"
"I'm afraid that's not possible, ma'am,"
"He just locked himself in containment and started howling." – R. J. Blain, Inquisitor
When you are as old as Allison Victoria Mayfield Hanover, you realize that only are few things are truly immutable. Blood and violence, horrors and hatred. And that one solid, totally immutable, truth of the universe: Everything eventually dies. Except, perhaps, for Victoria. Ah, but you see, someone wants, very much, to see Victoria dead. And they will do anything, kill anyone, to make sure that happens.
Which is a really crappy attitude when you realize who Victoria is. You see, she is the owner of Marrodin, one of the largest companies in the world. A company which goes out of its way to pay a hire those who have 'special' needs. You know the sort. Witches. Wolves. Single mothers.
Victoria is living in Atlanta as Allison Ferdinan these days, playing at being an accountant. Too bad money couldn't buy me a life. Of course, sometimes what you wish for actually comes true – and too often in bad, very bad, awful sorts of ways. It started out as a simple favor for a client/friend, Mark. Let's dress up and go to a party. You can be my fiancée!
Whoa. Hold the Phone!
Gack. Killing Mark in Central Park really probably isn't the best idea. But what was a really Bad Idea? Yeah. You got it. Going to a Halloween party as the fake fiancée, only to find out that your fake mother-in-law-to-be is a real witch. No, I mean it. A Real. Witch. And if you want to drop the W and add a B, well, please feel free.
But the party isn't the only thing wrong in Allison's world. Pretty soon it seems the whole world is out to kill her. And when whoever it is that hunts her begins going after her employees, well, let's just say that Allison/Victoria won't let it stand.
Here's a hint. Don't tick off an ancient werewolf. You won't like the outcome.
I loved this book so much I stayed up way too late into the early morning hours reading when I had to get up early the next morning. In fact, I liked it so much, I immediately downloaded the next one and started on it the next night. I am not saying there aren't issues inherent in the writing. There are some continuity and relationship logic issues that were frustrating – but you all know how picky I am about that sort of thing. I still think you should at the very least pick it up on Kindle Unlimited for free the way I did. And I look forward to hearing what you think. This isn't just another Paranormal – great character development, world building and a marked lack of the sort of sloppy writing that is so common in Urban Fantasy makes this series well worth the precious reading time if you like strong women characters. There are several between these pages!
RJ Blain suffers from a Moleskine journal obsession, a pen fixation, and a terrible tendency to pun without warning.
When she isn't playing pretend, she likes to think she's a cartographer and a sumi-e painter. In reality, she herds cats and a husband, and obeys the commands of Tsu Dhi, the great warrior fish.
In her spare time, she daydreams about being a spy. Should that fail, her contingency plan involves tying her best of enemies to spinning wheels and quoting James Bond villains until she is satisfied.
Legal Wolf's Mate by Eve Langlais
"You're my lawyer, or maybe not. I'm really beginning to rethink this whole idea."
"Ah yes, because you'd rather take your chances with your public defenderre, who has advised you to what? Oh, that's right, plead guilty." – Eve Langlais – Legal Wolf's Mate
Fabian Garoux absolutely, positively, without a doubt, is not a sucker for a sob story. No. Really. After all, he is an attorney . . . (Argh!!! Run Away! Run Away!!!!) But when the best friend who found you running around naked in the woods after you were changed against your will, (And ate a rabbit. Raw. Eww.) asks for your help, well, it is hard to say no. Especially when the guy who is apparently framing the 'Damsel in Distress' for murder is the very scumbag who turned you against your will!
After all, revenge really is best served up cold with a side of "Got'cha!"
Set-ups, betrayal, revenge, and the most deliciously wicked ending, evah! made "Legal Wolf's Mate" an actual thrill ride rather than the formulaic Paranormal Romances that are so common today. Oh, and don't forget the Bounty!
Megan starts out seeming like a downtrodden simpleton, and I pretty much went "Huh? Who wrote this again?!" but as the story progressed, she became more and more interesting. Then more interesting. Then . . . well, you are going to have to read it to figure things out!
I received this book from Eve Langlais in exchange for a realistic review. All thoughts are my own.
Review: Dead Spots By Melissa F. Olson
"Your perspective on life comes from the cage you were held captive in." ― Shannon L. Alder
Scarlett Bernard is one pragmatic lady. Of course, she has to be considering her job is supernatural crime scene cleanup. As in, get in, clean up the mess, steal the body, and book the hell out of Dodge before the cops arrive. She is truly good at her job, and her boss, the cold and distant Dashiell, Master Vampire of the city, may be scary, but he pretty much allows her to do her job without interference. But then, the worst happens.
She gets caught. Caught by a newly minted detective, Jesse Cruz, just after she arrives at a scene more bloody and grotesque than any she has ever seen. What happens next is fast paced action with terrific world building and interesting characters. I first read the book back in 2012, and enjoyed it then. This time I listened to the Audible edition narrated by Amy McFadden (one of my favorite narrators) and, as sometimes happens, I liked it even more as I listened. Scarlett is a strong character with a well-developed, though brutal, background and is likeable. She isn't perfect, but that is what makes her interesting. She has taken horrific hits in her life – but the one she walks into later on is absolutely devastating and Olson does a rather wonderful job of writing the horrors of betrayal. I would have liked her to be more mature in her interactions with others – her tendency to cope a nasty, self-serving attitude at times was a downer. I am hoping that the next books will show growth in her as a character (especially since I own them all). Her behavior isn't as horrendous as other female characters in the genre, but I am hoping for more maturity in upcoming works.
There are some things that were irritating. The Dreaded Love Triangle. Irritating! Not only do love triangles make me retch, this one felt stilted and unnecessary, dragging down the storyline. Also, the POV switches between characters and from first to third person erratically and unnecessarily. Irritating, but not as irritating as the lurrve (titter titter, Groan) triangle. Olson's take on werewolf psychology was more interesting than a lot of other books in the genre, and her friendship with the Alpha and Beta were more realistic than many others. The Alpha isn't as 'Alpha' as in other books (thank the Goddess!) and the tortured Beta was very realistically portrayed in the vein of "I never wanted this in the first place."
So, flawed, it isn't perfect by any means, but I still enjoyed it as much as I remembered, and Amy's narration was, as always, spot on.
Review: Beneath The Blood Moon by R.J. Blain
"No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path." -Buddha
"The chaining of Fenrir cost the god Tyr his right hand" – Völuspá, translated to English in The Poetic Edda, Henry Adams Bellows, 1923
Free On Kindle!
Sara Watson thought her life was bad enough as it was. Working as a stripper and part time Vegas showgirl, she tries to hold down four part time jobs, go to college, and still pay the rent and eat. They say Vegas is a hard place to live, and she knows all about that. But even the hell of her life is better than the hell she ran from in New York. A father that beat and controlled her, a life with no meaning. At least now, if she can get through school, she can start a real life on her own – fake ID or no fake ID.
Yes, life was hard. But nothing as hard as being kidnapped along with her best "friend" (though the idea of friend is Las Vegas equates to 'what can I get out of you for doing you the favor of being your friend) and dragged out to the desert by her ex 'I'm-a-cheating-POS' boyfriend who has tracked her down to Las Vegas to bring her back. Or kill her. Whichever works.
Telling him to get stuffed, taking her beating and broken ribs, then crawling out into the desert to die on her own and free is gutsy enough. I gained a ton of respect for her at this point, though I already respected her for keeping her moral compass (unlike her crappy friend) and going against said 'friend' and not going full-on prostitute made me respect her. Yep. She is one tough cookie, with more internal fortitude than any man her age I have ever known. But after the ex and the girlfriend finish doing the nasty and track her down as she crawls across the desert, then turn into wolves and begin eating her alive (literally), even weirder things happen. And suddenly, Sara's life is more hell than she could have ever imagined.
Let's get serious here. First, I really, REALLY wanted to give this book five stars with a bullet. Sara is tough and strong, yes. But she isn't unbelievable, and she has a heart of gold and a strong sense of right and wrong – and did I mention the heart of gold? Then she meets four other women who are an absolute joy. Tough, take no prisoners women with a fetish for guns, not taking any crap off of anyone, and their husbands (pretty much in that order). There is romance, but no sex scenes, which was completely refreshing (if you are an erotica-only lover, skip this one). The story is fast, suspenseful, sometimes terrifying, and kept me totally immersed in the story. The characters are wonderful, the world building is unusual (living in the world as we know it, but with their own governance, etc.) Some of the scenes literally brought me to tears. That's the good.
The bad came after I had a chance to come down off my 'reader-high' and start thinking about what I would write in my review, and realized I couldn't give it a five at all. The story is complex, and kept my attention throughout, but there were some issues that a really good content editor could have solved. Ms. Blain has a brilliant mind for writing paranormal suspense, but she isn't organized. She has a few different threads moving through the book, which is fine, I really enjoy books that are more than one-note songs, but she literally dropped the ball about midway through, dropping one of the more interesting story lines and never going back to it. No wrap, just dropped. Poor form. The book is quite long, 564 pages, and I was never bored or wanting to skip pages as I do with some longer books, and her descriptive narrative and conversational style was enjoyable, but dropping the story line, which I was invested in, shows a lack of organization. Editing for word usage, spelling, and dropped words was OK, but not good. Someone put effort into beta reading for that sort of thing, but the continuity is what killed it.
Overall, I will still recommend the book. The story and pace kept me up all night long (literally, yawn) and then the minute I rose I went right back to it and stayed with it to the end. Give this woman a good content editor, or just a whiteboard to write down all of her threads to make sure she ties them all up at the end and a couple of really good beta readers and she will be a force to be reckoned with in the world of Paranormal Suspense. Recommended, but could be better.
The Bite Back Series Is On Audible – and Book 5: Angel Stakes Is In Print!
Sleight of Hand: Bite Back, Book 1 Special Price:$1.99
I will admit it. I am CRAZY for every word Mark Henwick writes. And in this case, the same goes for the Audible series. The first book is narrated by Kimberly Henrie, the other three by Julia Motyka. Mark is working on getting the fifth book, Angel Stakes, narrated, but timing issues are pushing out the audio edition for a bit. But not to worry, it will be here before you know it, so I would suggest grabbing the first four right away! Especially as the first is on Audible.com at only $1.99! My review of Sleight of Hand is here.
But, there is MORE!
Angel Stakes, book 5 of the series, is out on eReader and paper now.
In Cool Hand, book four of the series, Amber's world is edging closer and closer to war. As I wrote in my review:
As the story continues to wind tighter and tighter, and war becomes inevitable, Amber and her kin, her friends, and even her enemies, walk the razors edge – the edge of death, sorrow, pain and loss – and the brutal fires of a world war between humans, Athenate, were, and adept.
And now, the war is here. First, within the halls of the Athenate assembly in Los Angeles as the Basilikos faction does its best to rip apart the assembly and push its plan of world domination into place. Uh, guys? You know the humans have things like atom bombs, right? Amber is carrying around her own bomb as well. After the fight in Carson National Park, she is barely holding onto her sanity as the possibility of her going feral becomes a very real possibility. She must find her way through the darkness in her mind, keep her people safe, and at the same time fight off the Basilikos and their plans to use her for their own gain. The world is spinning out of control, and it will take a concerted effort on the part of many – Athenate, were and human – to stop the world from descending into utter chaos. Everyone has an agenda, everyone has secrets. This time we are playing for Angel Stakes. And this time? The bad guys have the edge.
I was a beta reader for Mark for Angel Stakes but that in no way influences my determination that Mark Henwick is brilliant!
The Dowser Series by Meghan Ciana Doidge on Audible.com!
The Dowser Series is out on AUDIBLE!! Wooo Hooooo!
Here is my review of the first in the series, Cupcakes, Trinkets, and other Deadly Magic:
Meghan, Meghan, Meghan! I am expecting cupcake stocks to sail through the roof, and a run on cupcake ingredients at local markets just from reading this book. Whee!!!
OK, listen to this . . . Bliss in a Cup – peanut butter-iced fudge cake (did I say fudge cake? OMG wait a sec, I have to go get a towel . . . whew, there) Now, where was I? Oh, yes. Sex in a Cup – chocolate butter icing with a wallop of cinnamon and cocoa in the batter. Or, this particular favorite of mine, Buzz in a Cup – mocha fudge cake with mocha butter icing . . . oh, yes, I could go on, but I might swoon from pure overload. . .
Jade is a sweetheart. A nice young half witch, half human (maybe. . . ) with a nasty tempered foster sister, a wild earth witch grandmother, and a cupcake bakery. A very popular cupcake bakery with a reputation for 'magical' tasting cupcakes. She has a quiet life, happy with her baking, her trinket making and her quiet, apparently fulfilling life.
Then, of course, things change. And not in a nice way. Poor Jade. Life will never be the same. Apparently she isn't who she thought she was. But then, who is she?
Cupcakes, hot werewolves, cupcakes, mystery, oh, did I mention cupcakes? Yummy, luscious, delicious, chocolate, fudge. . . Oh. My. Goddess. The hardest thing about reading the book? First, I am dying for cupcakes now. And second? Hurry! Hurry! Write the next one, Meghan! Please!
Now, all the books (except for #5, which isn't up yet, but I am sure it will be!) are on Audible for your listening enjoyment. And the first book is only $2.99! So grab your copy while you can at that price, because you are going to want to buy them all!
Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic: Dowser Series #1
by Meghan Ciana Doidge
Narrated By Caitlin Davies
Special Price:$2.99
Back to Nocturne Falls with "The Werewolf Meets His Match"
I first visited Nocturne Falls with the first book in the series, The Vampire's Mail Order Bride. I didn't know what to expect, but I found it in one of my email 'freebie' newsletters, and it sounded like fun, so what the heck?
It was, in a word, a Blast. I loved the town of Nocturne Falls, where Halloween is 365-days-a-year. What better way for witches, weres, vamps and all the other supernaturals to live their lives without fear of notice by the norms?
The books are $4.99 a piece, and with my tiny book budget and the plethora of less expensive books out there I hadn't picked up another. But I finally broke down and bought The Werewolf Meets His Match and it was just as much fun as VMOB.
Hank Merrow, sheriff of Nocturne Falls and alpha's heir, has always known that he would probably have to enter into an arranged marriage. Just part and parcel of being in his position. Sigh. But when he is notified that, not only is he going to have to have an arranged marriage, but it is to one of the bloody Kincaid Women (HORROR!) the temptation to back out of the whole deal is strong. But Hank is a good man, an honorable one, and his people don't need another war. So, Suck it up, Buttercup, and marry the heathen already. Only, things may not be just exactly what they seem . . .
Ivy Kincaid's first intro to Hank is from the other side of jailhouse bars. Well Hank isn't really surprised by that. She is a Kincaid after all. But Ivy is just full of surprises. And the more Hank learns, the more he begins to think that things just may not be as bad as he expected. And when Hank learns Ivy's secrets, he will soon discover that, lawman or not, some things are worth killing for.
I adored Ivy, her charming secret, and goofy, lovable Hank and his family. If you haven't tried this series, check out the first one, it is only .99 on Amazon. Bet you get hooked as well! This one gets five stars. I adore Ivy, and her story made me want to stand right beside her and fight. Someone give me a map to Nocturne Falls – I want to live there!
Review: Gray Back Ghost Bear (Gray Back Bears #3) by T.S. Joyce
Who would have ever thought I would find Trailer Park Bears fascinating? Well, the way T.S. Joyce writes them, you simply can't put the books down!
The Trailer Park Bears truly do live in trailer parks. Broken-down singlewides, parked in the middle of the forest, where Dragon Shifter Damon Daye has brought them in to clear trees devastated by bug infestations. The TPB's series is actually more than one series. The first tells the story of the Saw Back Bears, this second series is all about the Gray Backs. While the Ashe crew, the stars of the Saw Bears series, is the "A Team" of lumberjacks, well, the Gray Back crew is, as Alpha Creed puts it, "The C Team". Rowdy, constantly battling, and constantly covered in blood, the Gray Backs are a misfit band of dominant bears. Broken dominant bears. Creed the alpha, Matt the man-ho, Clinton and Jason the goofballs. And then there is Easton, a bear so broken he can't stand to live close to the others – and can't seem to stop fighting, even when it might mean his death. A broken clan with a brutal and savage history, they are the clan that nobody wants to mess with.
Book one was Matt's story. Book two took us deeper into Creed's story. Gray Back #3, Gray Back Ghost Bear introduces us to Georgia Ames, a KickAss park ranger hired by Damon Daye to protect his forests, and his crews, from interlopers. Georgia knows alll about brown bears, from her stint in Alaska – where she learned to be terrified of them. Now, she is to protect them? Sigh.
Then, she meets Jason, a bear shifter who is apparently mad as a Hatter, and a group of broken bears in a broken down trailer park. Suddenly, there is a great big target on her back, and spending time with Jason may just spell her death.
This one steps up from the slightly disappointing second in the series. I loved Willa from the first book, and Georgia is another favorite. She may be terrified of bears after Alaska, but she never backs down from doing what she needs to do to protect her charges. She is a great character. Oh, and Jason is pretty OK too…. 😉 The next book is Gray Back Broken Bear (Gray Back Bears #4).
Kill It With Magic (Lillim Callina Book One) by J. A. Cipriano – Young Adult
Here's the thing. I don't normally like "YA" books. Hey, been there, done that, didn't even want the flipping "I lived through being a teenager" T-shirt. But I was looking for a Whispersync book, I had downloaded this book from a "freebie" email, and though there was no description on the "About this book" on my Kindle, the first couple of paragraphs grabbed my attention and made me laugh.
"What kind of a tip do you give someone you've just blown up? That's the thought that ran through my mind as I frantically rummaged through my pockets for something, anything to give the delivery boy I'd just blasted into the brick wall outside my tiny apartment.
It wasn't my fault, I swear. It's not like my day planner reads: brush teeth, shower, get dressed, blow up delivery boys." – Lillim Callina
You have to admit, that is pretty darn humorous, right? So, I paid my $1.99 for Whispersync, popped on my headphones, and wandered into my studio to work on my art. Let's face it – that is a LOT less money than paying for a full Audible Edition! And you can simply stop listening and start reading any time you want.
Score.
Come to find out, Lillim Callina is actually sixteen – but you wouldn't know it from reading her. Well, actually, actually she is something like six years old. Yeah, weird, huh? You see, Lillim is a reincarnation of one ass-kicking, name-taking female with a nasty streak and some deep, dark secrets. Throw in a ton of magic, a spectacularly sped-up growth rate, a mother who thinks that the perfect way to 'teach' her toddler "Vampires Bad!" is to tie her to a tree outside a cave full of blood-suckers right at sundown (OK, I just thought my egg donor was a raving lunatic!) a dragon turf war, and a truly pissed-off werewolf king (Well, OK. She did accidentally get his son kidnapped as a pawn in the aforementioned dragon turf war. Sigh.) Add to that various and sundry other weird, hideous and downright loco monsters, and this was a riot wrapped in a Dresden-esque ass-kicking on steroids. Lillim appears to be sixteen, but her thought process are wildly skewed by the memories from her eight former lives – especially the previous one – making her a clever mix of teenager and burned-out middle aged woman.
This is non-stop action, with plenty of blood and blades to go around. Lillim is quite interesting, though I had a bit of a problem with just how often, and just how severely, she got herself beaten to a pulp and still walked away. The author goes to great pains to write her as a mortal creature in a world filled with immortal monsters – but it stretches belief when every time she turns around she is being slammed into brick walls by dragons, set on fire, and basically subjected to brutality that should have killed her. Over, and over, and over again. Still, the book was amusing, the story itself is unusual – not as formulaic as is so common these days – and Lilllim is an interesting character with a striking backstory.
Overall, I don't regret the time I spent with the book. If you are a fan of YA, I recommend it. If you aren't a fan, you still might enjoy it – I did.

Youdao Claims 1% of China Search Market
by Gang Lu Jun 4, 2012 Jun 7, 2020
Youdao, the Chinese search engine by NetEase claims 1% of China's search market, according to it's SVP Zhou Feng.
Zhou said that NetEase's Youdao will be more focusing on product rather than some sort of concept. He believed that as long as the service attracts a large amount of users, making money off it with 3 ~ 5 years won't be something that difficult.
Particularly, Youdao's Shopping Search which is a direct competitor of Taobao's Etao has already signed up 1000+ Chinese ecommerce company to aggregate their items across the web. The price engine can help users save money and find better bargain.
Youdao Shopping Search
Zhou revealed that there'll be a big surprise coming up regarding Shopping Search in the third quarter, he didn't go into details.
According to iResearch, in the first quarter of this year Baidu, Google and Sogou ranked top three in China's search market with a market share of 77.6%, 17.8% and 2.7% respectively. Soso came in fourth with 1.5% while NetEase's Youdao falls under the "Others" category.
As Baidu continued to cement its position in the market and Sogou managed to gobble up a bigger chunk of the area, smaller rivals like Soso and Youdao don't really have decent opportunities if they still rival them in an all-around way.
NetEase launched Youdao in late 2007 to compete in the heated market.

The Socio-economic Determinants of Obesity in Adults in the Bahamas
N Brathwaite
A Brathwaite
M Taylor
Vol 60, Issue 4 (2011) - Special Issue on WIMJ 60th Anniversary, 1951-2011
Objective: To determine the socio-economic determinants of obesity in adults in The Bahamas.
Design and Methods: A subpopulation of adults 21 to 60 years was analysed for socio-economic differences in obesity levels. Data from the 2001 Bahamas Living Conditions Survey, a nationwide comprehensive household survey which included anthropometric measurements, were used. Bivariate and binary logistic regression methods for complex samples were employed.
Findings: Overall obesity prevalence was 32% (38% female, 25% male, p = < 0.0001). An inverse relationship by education appeared to be the strongest predictor for all persons (OR = 0.78, CI 0.67, 0.90; p < 0.0001). This relationship was also evident for females (OR = 0.71, CI 0.59, 0.85; p < 0.0001) while a positive relationship existed by economic level for males (OR = 1.23, CI 1.07, 1.41; p = 0 .005). There was a difference in food group expenditure for starchy vegetables only (p = 0.049). Other food group household expenditure, urban residence and female headed households showed no significant differences by obesity.
Conclusions: In line with international trends, obesity rates are high in The Bahamas, and especially affect females of lower socio-economic status. Public policy that targets this group is necessary to address this health concern.

This was the catchphrase of ARP Warden William Hodges, the always grumpy adversary of Captain Mainwaring's Home Guard unit in the much-loved sitcom, Dad's Army. Bill Pertwee played the character throughout the show's 1968 to 1977 run.
Hodge's bad temper puts him at perpetually at odds with the admittedly pompous Mainwaring, played by Arthur Lowe, even though both were, theoretically, on the same side.
Bill himself was nothing like his most famous character and was so modest that he occasionally denied even being a "proper actor." The cousin of Doctor Who actor Jon Pertwee, Bill came from an acting family and enjoyed many other roles including one in radio series Round The Horne, three of the Carry On films and as a policeman in TV sitcom You Rang, M'Lord?
As a teenager during the Second World War, Bill was among thousands of children who were evacuated from towns and cities to the countryside. Before then, he had memories of ARP wardens shouting, "Put that light out!" before the blackout himself.

Japanese Folklore to Anne Frank: A Brief History of Diaries
When the opportunity arose to write this piece I jumped at the chance, immediately consulting the pile of tattered, dusty journals stored under my bed. You see, fellow reader, I too was a diary writer. And what images that conjures up! The lone man, tweed, tobacco-stained fingertips, driving rain outside, crackling fire inside, using his pen to funnel his unrequited love from heart, to crisp white page. Or the Princess with ringlets, sat stifled in her satin rooms, composing letters in looping calligraphy that cuss her haughty Mamma and lay bare parliamentary scandals. Or the child, plum-cheeked with violent joy, scribbling on his favourite subject: the routine torture of Mr Tiddles, the family cat.
What I discovered when trawling down memory lane was that I clearly wasn't a literary giant. Alas, in between the latest drama ensuing in my social circle, and what I had for dinner that night, my diary was just a rundown of my scholarly routine. Hardly stuff to make the publishers at Penguin Classics sit up. However, not all diarists are as uninspired as my thirteen-year-old self. Diary-keeping has been an expression of self and literature which we can trace to ancient times, though it's been shown to be a relatively recent medium in the culture of Western Europe.
The oldest known diaries came from East Asian cultures, and went by the gently dreamy, softly secret name of "Pillowbooks", evoking images both of hiding the writing in the privacy of your bed, and of jotting down your innermost thoughts.
Japanese court ladies collated their introspective musings within these, as early as the 10th century. Not only were they reflections on daily life, but explorations of drama and fantasy. Bordering on the realms of fictional writing, their melancholy lamentations captured the intimacies of a life and mind long subjugated within society. Murasaki Shikibu, who wrote The Tale of Genji, is thought to be one of the earliest published authors documenting life within the confines of the Emperor's palace. Her journals are absorbing in their exploration through female eyes of a period in history marked by its patriarchal muting of women. Her words open us up to the situation in a time when women were rarely seen and never heard, as she writes of marital relations; "When there are crises, incidents, a woman should try and overlook them". And of bitchy gossip overheard in society:
""Well, we never expected this!" they all say. "No one liked her. They all said she was pretentious, awkward, difficult to approach, prickly, too fond of her tales, haughty, prone to versifying, disdainful, cantankerous, and scornful. But when you meet her, she is strangely meek, a completely different person altogether!"
All with a brilliant smattering of very cryptic, Japanese-style zen epitaphs such as; "If you are scorched earth, I will be warm rain" and, "If like the leaf of the wisteria through which the sun darts his rays transparently you give your heart to me, I will no longer distrust you."
Whilst diaries were kept in the West as early as the time of the Puritans, where arrivals to America from the Mayflower jotted down their latest discoveries, the intimacies of personal writing did not mature until much later. During this period, diaries were more a religious impulse and a way of making the authors' life a witness to God, summarising the anxious, self-examining religiosity of the seventeenth century.
It was during the Renaissance that diaries really began to develop, with the notable Samuel Pepys leading the way. For a decade he recorded daily British life and the major events that shaped society around him. Celebrated as one of the greatest diarists of all time, his works were first published in the 19th century, creating great fanfare within literary circles and defining the pleasure we take in reading literature of this kind today. His witty insights are all the more charming for showing us that really nothing has changed over the centuries. For instance, on the effect of dining he wrote, "Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody", and on giving up alcohol he wrote, "I do find myself much better and to mind my business better and to spend less money", a sentiment I'm sure we can all sympathise with deeply. While on Christmas day in 1665, he recorded:
"To church in the morning, and there saw a wedding…; and the young people so merry one with another, and strange to see what delight we married people have to these poor fools decoyed into our condition, every man and woman gazing and smiling at them."
Then, in the late 18th century, during the period of the French Revolution, introspective diaries took shape with the 'journal intime' developing out of an intense desire to explore individuality. Examining conscience and emotions, these were a psychological take on what had once been a routine form of note-taking.
Whilst Pepys may hold the title as the greatest diarist, perhaps the most recognisable is Anne Frank. Penned whilst in hiding, her diary functions as a cultural artefact, providing a unique and rare insight into Nazi Germany from the perspective of a young Jewish teenager. Anne's father Otto sought to publish her writings after the Holocaust, which left him the only surviving member of his family. Like many young girls of her age, Anne comments on daily life, love and family tribulations, despite the intense historic period she was living in. Eloquently inscribing; "I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn", Anne sums up what diaries mean to us, they're a chance to expel our worries outward into the world. This sort of catharsis makes for honest, raw material, that readers can relate to.
But how has the diary fared in this modern age, where our thoughts are more likely to end up slung on Twitter for the consumption of our peers and public alike? Have the likes of WordPress blogs and filtered Instagram posts overtaken the way we record our deeper experiences? If everyone can be tracked down on at least one form of social media, do we even bother holding a space for the world of our private thoughts, or has the need to share and be validated overtaken the art of recording the rich fabric of our inner lives? This is perhaps too big a question, which we haven't had enough time yet to answer. We don't know what the advent of the internet will really bring, though it is fair to say that frequently social media serves as a "highlight reel" of our best moments, glossing over our problems or hardships. Our vanity chips into the image we present to the world, taking away from the honesty and rawness that is so present and so loveable in diarists.
The truth may well be that instead of using the diary as a prop for self-reflection, we will become too concerned with editing our lives for a global audience. In theory this isn't life-threatening, but in practice the idea of learning about ourselves by responding to people's comments, instead of by listening to our own instincts, clips our wings and narrows our world.

Portland Milk Premiere with Gus Van Sant, Sean Penn and James Franco

Sean Penn in Milk - Portland Premiere
This Friday, Hollywood comes to Portland with a red carpet premiere of Gus Van Sant's latest film Milk. The event will be held at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall (1037 SW Broadway) as a benefit and celebration of the 40th anniversary of Outside In (a local charity which serves homeless youth and low-income adults)
As with any red carpet premier the list of people expected to attend can change, but early word is that Gus Van Sant, Sean Penn and James Franco are all expected to be there. PDXPipeline is reporting that Mayor-elect Sam Adams and The March Forth Marching Band are also expected to be in attendance.
Milk is one of Gus Van Sant's highest profile films in years and it tells the story of prominent gay activist and San Francisco city politician Harvey Milk during the years leading up to his assassination in 1978. Early buzz from some select critics who have seen the film is very very good, and this is a fantastic opportunity to see the film early and support a really worthy cause.
Tickets for the Milk red carpet debut are available for purchase online (via Ticketmaster) and at the Portland Center for the Performing Arts (PCPA) box office (1111 SW Broadway). Prices range from $37.75 – $71.75. The event starts at 8:30 pm.
Here is the Milk Trailer:

I am on a four-stage plane journey, from Vienna to Sharm-el-Sheikh and back via Istanbul. On the first leg, from Vienna to Istanbul, my Turkish Airlines flight features seat-back video and I choose recent blockbuster "Black Panther".
Unfortunately the crew make many announcements in numerous languages (bold italic links are to other blogs on this site), interrupting the movie. So I miss the end of the film, which I am hoping will include astonishing plot twists but fear will mostly be superheroes slugging each other (a fundamental problem with all superhero movies: if two superheroes have a superhero fist-fight, how do you make it interesting? No-one knows).
On the next three legs, Istanbul-Sharm, Sharm-Istanbul and Istanbul-Vienna, the Turkish Airlines aircraft are older, without seat-back video. So I haven't seen the end of "Black Panther". Should I make an effort to catch the last 20 minutes? What do you think? No spoilers please!
The news gets worse. On the communal screens on the older planes, the airline shows episodes of Fish Tank Kings. This is a reality TV show in which… people build fish tanks. Why would anyone want to watch this? According to National Geographic, who produce the show: "Extreme fish tanks have become the ultimate status symbol and the people who are on the cutting edge are in high demand".
Not from me, they aren't.
Result: instead of watching a movie, I read books: Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit by P G Wodehouse and Lady Anna by Anthony Trollope.
This brings to eight the number of books read on my holiday in Sharm-el-Sheikh, a 15-day period when I make a conscious effort to detox from my phone; to swim in the ocean; and do four hours of writing, daily.
My second conclusion is that Trollope is, as I have blogged before, one of the world's great novelists. Lady Anna is not one of his best novels but is nonetheless full of wit and wisdom and addresses issues of power and feminism which remain relevant in these #MeToo days. See the link for my blog reviewing the book.
My third thought is to recall the excellence of P G Wodehouse. More blogs coming up on him – I even have a dedicated Wodehouse "category" – see top left on front page.
Finally, everything pales into insignificance when you confront a giant sea turtle in the water. This individual seemed unconcerned by having a couple of snorkelers nearby. When he or she surfaced, one or two metres away, the head seemed primaeval, like a living dinosaur. Breathtaking.
For a selection of other photos from Sharm el Sheikh, see my Facebook account. A wonderful two weeks – even without seeing the end of "Black Panther".

wow, I made it only to five books within three weeks. and not even ten hours of writing alltogether…well, see you soon anyway on http://www.weinfreundin.blog for a few thoughts on orange and natural wine.


Authorities on Friday identified the 25-year-old man fatally shot by a Colorado Springs police officer Wednesday morning.
The El Paso County Coroner's Office has ruled Josiah Williams' cause of death a homicide. Investigators say Williams shot at an officer before he was killed.
Natalie Sosa, spokeswoman for the El Paso County sheriff, said the shooting happened about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday near the intersection of Delta and San Marcos drives.
Sosa said the man was reported to have a silver gun in one hand and an alcoholic beverage in the other. When officers arrived, the man pointed the weapon at an officer and fired before being killed, authorities say.

The sheriff's office says the officer told the man to drop his weapon, and the man did not follow the command.
Williams was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Photos from the scene showed a large area cordoned off in crime-scene tape. The shooting remains under investigation.
