3 out of 5 stars Half a Book.......2006-08-22

This book provides a few interesting concepts and Cyndi Dale writes well. The quiz that drives the book is interesting and seems relatively thorough. She even attempts to round things about by providing career advice and magnetizing techniques. Someone with more knowledge than me has suggested that the chakra money types bear more than a passing resemblance to the major arcana of the tarot. Since I have no knowledge of or interest in the tarot, I don't know if this is true or not.

Where the book falls down is in the application she suggests, based on your chakra money style(s). Your strongest chakra patterns are used to indicate your money personality and to suggest actions to improve your results. Esoteric suggestions are made in an offhand manner, like she is telling you to go make a cheese sandwich. Here are a couple examples that left me scratching my head.

From page 88:

5. Direct fifth chakra communication skills to hear what spiritual guides or the Divine has to say.

From page 89:

- Learn your lessons from the past. As a Shaman, you can read the Akashic Records, the history annals of time containing everything you or someone else has ever done, said, or thought. Want to avoid mistakes you made a long time ago? Read about them--and learn!

From page 106:

8. Eighth chakra: Walk as the Shaman walks--between worlds--to figure out your choices and to gain spirit-based assistance in implementing your decision.

OK, so I've heard of the Akashic Records but that doesn't mean I know how to read them, if they exist. How do I direct 5th chakra communications? How do I walk between worlds; is it "simply" astral projection?

This confusion would suggest that either the quiz is an inaccurate tool (I believe I filled it out honestly) or the implication is that, based on my types, I should already have divined how to do these things. Either could be the case but the very least that could be done, short of actually providing some guidance, would be to provide suggested readings.

This leads me to the conclusion that this is an intriguing "half book."

Book Description

This practical book of tips, solutions and exercises was born of a writer's angst: how to present his material in a way that was appealing to bookstore audiences, flexible enough to use in non-traditional venues, and dramatic enough to keep any audience awake and eager to buy. Adapting the tools actors use to a writer's particular needs cured the angst and made readings profitable and fun. Drama was the key.

5 out of 5 stars Naked at the Podium.......2004-02-08

Peter Kahle writes with wit and experience. He has the kind of knowledge about selling books that is based on compassion as well as calculation. Naked at the Podium is a very useful tool for those who seek stimulating ideas on how to be successful in
merchandising their product. No author should make a presentation without reading this first.

5 out of 5 stars I Learned to Embrace My Nervousness.......2003-10-06

I purchased NAKED AT THE PODIUM a few years ago at the first writing conference I attended. Though I knew it would be a while before I'd need the advice the book offered, I felt I'd better get it anyway just in case it wasn't available 5 years down the road when I'd actually need it.

While I'm still not far enough along in my writing career to be out on book tour, I was recently asked to deliver a 30-minute presentation to about 100 writing peers. In all my nervousness, I studied NAKED AT THE PODIUM like mad, learning how to breathe, assume a stage presence, and embrace my nervousness. My copy of the book aged rather nicely, with blue highlights, pencil underlining, and stars placed strategically throughout the columns next to all the gems of information.

Not only was the book enjoyable, but it helped me tremendously. When it came time for the presentation, my words didn't get all stuck in my throat like they usually do when I speak to large groups. And, the coolest part was that people were taking notes and actually learning from what I was saying (instead of sitting there with that squeemish feeling of watching somebody struggle up on the stage)! In fact, several people came up to me afterwards to tell me how much they got out of it.

Anyway, it was a real thrill...maybe I don't hate public speaking as much as I thought I did! In fact, I'm now proactively looking for more such engagements.

I owe it all to Pete and Melanie and the creation of such a wonderful reference tool.

THANK YOU!

5 out of 5 stars For authors seeking to promote their books.......2002-02-10

Naked At The Podium: The Writer's Guide To Successful Readings is a very practical guide of tips, tricks, and exercises for authors who may not be quite so at home giving a public reading as with the usual day's work of bringing drama to blank sheets of paper. Techniques presented include how to use body language, cure pre-reading jitters, become one's characters, and generally make the reading a memorable promotional event to spread word of one's book. Naked At The Podium is strongly recommended reading for authors seeking to promote their books through public readings at bookstores, libraries, or other venues.

5 out of 5 stars This worked for me.......2001-08-15

Before I read "Naked at the Podium", I had given a number of presentations of my book. However, after I read it, what a difference! I was more at ease, more confident, and the audience reflected this change. The result: more book sales. No writer setting out to promote a book can afford not to read, and use, this important contribution by Kahle and Workhoven. Evelyn McDaniel Gibb, author of Two Wheels North

5 out of 5 stars HOW TO BE CONFIDENT AND EFFECTIVE AT ANY PODIUM.......2001-06-22

Wow. Forget the fluff... here's a book crammed with valuable tips and information you will use to make any speaking engagement more effective.

As I was preparing for several Author appearances and book signings for my first novel (The Glass Cocoon) I was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of this helpful, informative, valuable and fun to read book.

Authors Peter Kahle and Melanie Workhoven have learned by trial and error the most effective ways to prepare yourself for any speaking engagement. They know most of the 'secrets' and 'tricks' and have written an extremely easy and fun book to read that will help you get rid of the jitters, and present the best you, you possibly can,when you get up in front of a group of people.

Melanie's background as an actress and Peter's as a author combine in a book that doesn't waste any valuable time in giving you great ways to prepare to have successful readings and speaking engagements.

There is a lot of information, practical advice, insights, tips, preperatory exercises (complete with useful pictures) in this book. The information is delivered clearly, concisely and with a generous dose of breezy humor and in-the-trenches examples. A lot of research and a variety of personal experiences from the authors and some others have been effectively tapped. The book will walk you through the whole process and experience and you get the feeling your best friend is holding your hand and filling you with confidence and encouragement.

Follow the advice in the book and you can be assured of not only having a successful speaking engagment, but also of having a lot of fun too.

Thank you.. thank you.. thank you Peter and Melanie for this extremely useful and valuable resource.

Christopher J. Jarmick is the co-author of the recently published mystery suspense thriller The Glass Cocoon with Serena F. Holder.

                      After reading "Luxury Leisure for Less", I found myself getting excited about all the low-cost activities I would have on my kitchen calendar in a couple of months. I think this book has timeless information that can be used by anyone who does not want to spend a lot of money to have fun. The information provided in this book could be used in the city or in the country--it is universal information. I even plan to use some of the basics leisure for less tips during my next vacation to Paris.

                        Perhaps the Internet's most important impact is the way it eliminates distance, allowing us to span the globe with a mouse click. For global investors, the Net offers a wealth of information on foreign economies and markets. This is the special focus of Investing Online by Stephen Eckett, who has traded futures and derivatives in London, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. Like other books, this one covers all the major U.S. financial Web sites, but it also includes a directory of sites in 44 other nations. Here's where to go to check the price of a stock on the Thailand stock exchange or to find out the unemployment rate in Sweden. Eckett offers some thoughtful musings on the long-term impact of the Internet on how we will invest in the future. Among other things, he believes the boundary between investment and gambling will blur, then disappear completely. We'll sell gold short and bet on the World Cup from the same computer screen. --Barry Mitzman

Good section on choosing an online broker. The directory of investment web sites at the back of the book is very comprehensive, and the rating system is useful.

                            Book Description

                            The introduction of a single European currency constitutes a remarkable instance of internationalization of monetary policy. Whether a concomitant internationalization can be detected also in the econometric foundations of monetary policy is the problem dealt with in this book. Its basic theoretical ingredients comprise a data-driven approach to econometric modelling and a generalized approach to cross-sectional aggregation. The resulting econometric model systematically combines statistical and economic theory by extending a cointegrated VAR into a structural ECM. The empirical outcome is a data-consistent causal money demand function, isolated within a properly identified dynamic macroeconomic system for Europe.

                              Book Description

                              The tensions which periodically surfaced within the European Monetary Systemn and which exploded in the 1992-3 ERM crisis do not demonstrate that the thorny issue of the co-ordination of monetary policies is obsolete, but they do show the difficulty of identifying and implementing effective
                              schemes of monetary co-ordination. This book proposes a innovative perspective on the issue of improving monetary integration, written from the privileged viewpoint of central bank experience. After reviewing the ERM experience and the importance of the system's symmetry in shaping its evolution,
                              the authors identify the economic conditions udnerlying the choice of the optimal scheme of monetary co-ordination under an exchange rate agreement. Their empirical findings support the case for the adoption of a scheme which relies on the control of area-wide money supply.

                                The volume gives an overview of money demand analysis in Europe in the eve of the introduction of the Euro in some European countries. It contributes to the discussion on a suitable monetary policy for the new European Central Bank. The alternative strategies under discussion are a direct inflation targeting, an intermediate monetary targeting or a mixture of both. For these policy strategies a stable money demand relation is of central importance. The articles in this volume present empirical studies of money demand based on up-to-date time series econometric methods.

                                  The EURO has now been in place for more than two years, but only the future will tell if the ECB can manage the EURO currency in the long-term. This book discusses the economic principals underlying the demand for money, and the possibilities to recover its properties by means of multivariate time series analysis. It applies the outcome to the whole EURO area as well as to France. While for the aggregate, a money demand function can be specified and be shown to have good forecasting properties, this fails in the French case. This book puts forth economic arguments to explain this. The presentation specifically outlines all means that have been used to cope with shifts in coefficients of the cointegration relations. A separate chapter examines unit root tests for time series with level shifts. This includes detection of break points, provision of test statistics, graphical evaluation of the empirical models and illustration of the procedure with a large set of international macroeconomic data.

                                      I bought ROOM FOR A SINGLE LADY in a downtown Dublin bookstore for my "airplane read" back to the United States. It was a great choice and marvelous entertainment. It is a tale of family survival, both financial and social in depressed 1950's Ireland. Oh no, not another tale of making it through the Irish childhood and adolescence. Well there is always room for one more for us grandchildren of the old sod and this one had a bit more laghter than tears. To improve dwindling monetary circustances the Rafferty's of Dublin decide to take in a border--a genteel single lady who not only can contribute to the family's finances but can introduce their three daughters to some of society's better refinements. The border concept turns into a revolving door of various lovable, wacky, entertaining characters who bring great change and insight to the entire Rafferty family. From serious, sad Selena with her caring ways, to glamorous, trashy Sissy, to Ruth, the Communist, and Minnie Mankivitz, frugal and sensible, yet blind when it comes to men, the Rafferty's lives wind through complex delightful dramas! Seen through the eyes of Rose, the youngest daughter, ROOM FOR A SINGLE LADY details the effects of sharing one's home with strangers, and how one family grew thanks to the laughter, tears, anger, and wacky fun that resulted from letting out the spare room to these most bizarre group of women. This tale is not as dramatic as ANGELA'S ASHES or as angry as A STAR NAMED HENRY but is a delightful and entertaining saga of some uproarious days in the life of an Irish family!
