Swarm Poems
T S. Eliot, Elizabeth Bishop, John Ashbery -- and Jorie Graham. 'The New Yorker places Ms. Graham in this distinguished line of poets, heralding the Pulitzer Prize winner as a profound voice in American poetry. Now, in her eighth collection, she further enhances her reputation with a book-length sequence of verse that is a stunning work of grandeur.'The New Republic writes, 'for 'swarm, ' in other words...read 'be born again.' Graham is writing about a spiritual turning point, a new beginning.... Beauty -- that is, the pure sense-perception which has long been a concern for Graham -- is no longer the most important criterion. Now goodness is... and the idea of submission, of obedience, without understanding: one must 'yield' before 'hearing the reason' for yielding.' - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461719035

Getting over It
Helen Bradshaw isn't exactly living out her dreams. She's a lowly assistant editor at 'GirlTime' magazine, she drives an ancient Toyota, and she has a history of choosing men who fall several thousand feet below acceptable boyfriend standard. Not to mention that she shares an apartment with a scruffy, tactless roommate, her best girlfriends are a little too perfect, and the most affectionate male in her life--her cat, Fatboy--occasionally pees in her underwear draw. Then Helen gets the telephone call she least expects: Her father has had a massive heart attack. Initially brushing off his death as merely an interruption in her already chaotic life (they were never very close, after all), Helen is surprised to find everything else starting to crumble around her. Her pushy mother is coming apart at the seams, a close friend might be heading toward tragedy, and, after the tequila incident, it looks as though Tom the vet will be sticking with Dalmatians. Turns out getting over it isn't going to be quite as easy as she thought. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461719065

Hidden Financial Risk Understanding Off-Balance Sheet Accounting
What went wrong and how to fix it " This is a book that well represents the skeptical, probing, and doubting spirit of the time. Professor Ketz explores the ways corporate management and auditors can ‘ spin’ financial reporting to misinform investors. It is written so that the individual investor can grasp the ideas but will be useful for investment analysts and audit committee members who need a lively briefing in how to spot questionable accounting." – – John H. Biggs Former chairman and Chief Executive Officer TIAA - CREF " Ed Ketz brilliantly illustrates how the improper application of accounting rules misleads users of financial statements. This book is an indispensable resource and greatly enhances one’ s understanding of the many obscure footnotes found in today’ s financial statements." – – Albert Meyer 2nd Opinion Research, Plano, TX It is now painfully clear that " earnings management" has manag little, other than some short-term gain for a handful of managers and a long-term catastrophic erosion of the public faith in financial reporting.But it is not too late for the accounting industry to turn back from the brink. Edward Ketz lays out several specific problems in the financial reporting arena, describes how the system failed to correct any of these problems, and suggests a compelling course of action for improvement in Hidden Financial Risk: Understanding Off-Balance Sheet Accounting. Chapter by chapter, Ketz explains how firms hide debt using: The equity method Lease accounting Pension accounting Special Purpose Entities and thenillustrates the failures of directors, auditors, regulators, and investors to detect and eliminate these tools of deception. He concludes by drawing upon his thirty years’ experience to propose how the industry can learn to identify fraud and ultimately restore investor confidence. Executives, accountants, and individual and institutional investors will find Hidden Financial Risk to be a powerful examination of the present, shifting accounting landscape. - Books Reading - New - 461124777
