  The Power of a Positive No

  How to Say No and Still Get to Yes

  by William Ury

  No is perhaps the most important and certainly the most powerful word in the language. Every day we find ourselves in situations where we need to say No–to people at work, at home, and in our communities–because No is the word we must use to protect ourselves and to stand up for everything and everyone that matters to us. But as we all know, the wrong No can also destroy what we most value by alienating and... (more)

  The Lodger

  by Marie Belloc Lowndes

  The Lodger was the basis for Alfred Hitchcock's first thriller, and a remarkable film it is. But the story Hitchcock tells -- of young love and mistaken identity (and is that a mistake, or malicious accusation by a rival. . . ?) -- is very different from Lowndes's tale, a story of an elderly couple with a strange and unsettling tenant -- a man with peculiar habits who may be the Ripper himself. . . .

  Queen Sheba's Ring

  by H. Rider Haggard

  H. Rider Haggard is mostly known and remembered for writing tales of Africa -- which this is -- but it's something different, too. It's a tale of plots and warlike machination among the Abysinian Jews -- well, not them, exactly, it's more like he'd heard there were such a thing and had to write a novel about them, but misplaced all the details. It's a cool adventure, though, like all of Haggard. Highly... (more)

  The History of a Crime: The Testimony of an Eye-witness

Several members of the Right were rolled in the mud by the soldiers. One of them, M. Etienne, received a blow on the shoulder from the butt-end of a musket. We may here add that a week afterwards M. Etienne was a member of that concern which they styled the... (more)
