About the Book THIRD EDITION has over 20 more pictures added!!! Diff''rent Strokes star Dana Plato holds up a video store and runs a swinger''s club in Phoenix true story tell all! Better than 50 Shades of Grey and My Cousin Vinny because it''s true! 4 stars out of 4 stars from Onlinebookclub.org! "One aspect of the book that stands out is David''s humor that permeates the entire book. I just could not stop laughing throughout the story, especially with his funny way of diffusing heated situations..." "...riveting..." Though not remotely a biography of Dana''s life, this book recounts the full history of the popular retreat (overnight resort) that she headlined. This retreat was the Phoenix nightclub that was infiltrated by undercover cops and, eventually, shut down in 1994. This sexy thriller can be compared to the lighthearted tone of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas with the authors narrating their individual experiences as if in an episode of The Office. When fans learn about Dana''s adorable antics, they will grow to love the star even more. The book title came from Dana''s last name being the same as the most famous swinger''s club in history called Plato''s Retreat in New York. And so, the authors named the swinger''s club in Phoenix Dana Plato''s Retreat, the subject of this book. Category: nonfiction memoir, adult humor, explicit sexual content, and brief nudity. About the Book Author David Schwartz is a movie producer and entrepreneur and was recently added to Strathmore''s Who''s Who Worldwide listing. Mr. Schwartz has also published modeling magazines and owned many companies dealing with beautiful women. Coauthor Jessica True came to be Dana''s roommate in the swinger''s club while she was performing in local theatre and commercials in the 90''s.

This book offers a proven framework for self-managing the process of securing world class utility patents. I say everything Utility Patents, all in one place. If you''re on the patenting pathway, uncertain about your critical IP tasks find out which steps to take and when, then this book is all the while avoiding Fatal Office Action Rejections (FOARs). I say Everything Utility Patents because the sole focus of the book is drafting and prosecuting Utility Patents with Sustainable Competitive Advantage (SCA). Use this book to get everyone on the team IP SAVVY and change your IP conversation. When everyone is in the IP zone, you will accelerate down your IP learning curve. I re-worked and perfected my Schwartz method as a matter of life or death on dozens of pro sea utility patents, across diverse subject matter. When you use my Universal Patenting Language (UPL) and Guiding Principles (GP) you will be able to change your utility patenting coversation and get your IP quarry at the lowest cost and highest quality. The book is in TWO PARTS. Part-1 gets everyone on the same page about patent structure and semantics covering the MPEP rules for filing utility compliant provisional and non-provisional patents in non-legalese terms.In PART-2 I cover the myths and truths about patents and share dozens of conversation changing opportunities to control your patent workflow and patent spend. When you start at T=-5 (conception) and go forward with UPL and GP to the key event, Notice of Allowance, at T=0, you will see how your world begins the way you want it to. You control your own destiny. I use my Big Bang Theory of IP capitalization to integrate my Schwartz Method with the product development life cycle, enabling patents to pop when your product is marketed. My promise: using this book IP hunters like yourselves can create, draft, and file high quality utility patents with Sustainable Competitive Advantage (SCA), while doing product development, all at the lowest cost.

"I was born in the small town of Ft. Kent, Maine, on September 26, 1919, to Meyer Blumberg and Minnie Klein Blumberg." Thus begins the autobiography of Mendel Blumberg, as told in his own wry, understated, reflective style. As a member of the Greatest Generation, he experienced the Great Depression as a teenager and then fought in World War II through the brutal campaigns in North Africa and southern Europe. Vowing that "I would never be cold again," he moved to Florida and had careers as a racehorse trainer, as a postal worker and union representative, and as a women''s professional golf tour official. He never married, yet he had a number of long-term relationships with "beautiful women with great personalities. I feel like I''ve had five long honeymoons." He never had children, yet he had a lasting impact on his nephews, nieces, cousins'' children, and their families. He was our much-loved Uncle Mendy.

Since its appearance in 1992, Barth David Schwartz''s biography of Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922-1975) has been the standard reference and starting point for anyone embarking on a study of Pasolini in English, situating the multimedia artist within twentieth-century Italian and world culture. Pasolini was unique among his contemporaries--Federico Fellini, for example, didn''t write novels, Giorgio Bassani did not direct films, and Eugenio Montale did not write popular journalism. Although Pasolini excelled at all of these genres, he was first and foremost a poet (see Chicago''s bilingual edition of his selected poems from 2014). Whatever he was doing, Pasolini''s poetry informed all aspects of his creative life, from his plays to his visual art, from his films to his political essays. In this second edition, which includes a new Afterword that contains material that has come to light since the early 1990s and revelations about Pasolini''s last days, Schwartz introduces this multimedia artist to a new generation of scholars and students trying to negotiate the complexities of the Italian cultural landscape. As Susan Sontag wrote, Pasolini is "indisputably the most remarkable figure to have emerged in Italian Arts and letters since the Second World War." This new edition, revised and updated throughout, is a natural companion to our volume of poetry and, with the poems, will be a perennial seller for years to come.

Freshwater cyanobacterial blooms are a nuisance and health threat in the Pacific Northwest. The accepted methods of characterizing these blooms by microscopic cell counts cannot differentiate between toxic and non-toxic strains of the cyanobacterium Microcystis. Also, there is limited understanding of freshwater cyanophage that may control bloom dynamics. In order to better understand the cyanobacterial and cyanophage populations of the Klamath River, two studies were conducted. Methods in the studies were largely composed of bioinformatic techniques. First, using clone libraries to genetically track the Microcystis blooms, we found a distinct separation in bloom populations according to whether the toxin microcystin could be produced. The genotypic differences in two bloom cycles were parsed into a graphical representation, useful for describing many closely related organisms. Further investigation of the bloom community led to the isolation of the novel, freshwater Synechococcus-infecting myophage, S-CRM01. The phage is very similar in gene content to marine cyanomyophage, but differs in synteny and nucleotide composition. The bioinformatic techniques used that were either developed or customized to fit our data. Our findings indicate that the use of bioinformatic techniques will greatly increase the resolution of population and genomic studies in freshwater environments. This is apparent in the population differentiation seen throughout the bloom season in the Copco Reservoir as well as the comparative genomics of phage S-CRM01. The results of the research support the use of bioinformatics to acquire and interpret genetic data for cyanobacteria and cyanophage.

Midrash is a word which denoted the ancient Jewish art of interpretation. The word drash suggests the way human beings can elicit truth from bygone thought. Midrash derives new truth from reading and thinking about the bible. Midrash brings new thoughts, new truths out on the at which is thought to be worn or just old. In the ancient art the working of Midrash makes the Bible as well as any area of thought become unique and explained in modern terms. Midrash is both an expression of old truths in a new manner and an invention of new explanations of old thoughts. It is exciting in discovering and unique in explaining.

Urban gambling, linked to poverty, crime and corruption, was once considered a blight on US cities. Gambling then followed the exodus of Americans into the suburbs after World War II and now, at the beginning of the 21st century, most Americans live within a four-hour drive of a casino. What explains the success of places like Las Vegas? The self-c
