There are empty seats on either side of her. The other seats are taken. A garbled train announcement comes over the public address system. ALL THE PEOPLE WAITING for the train strain their ears to make sense of the announcement, but it's just gibberish. They all look at each other as if to say, "Wha?" Nobody gives it much further thought. They continue reading, chatting, listening to Walkmans. Somewhat down the platform, JOEY and FREDDY are going through the turnstiles. Their conversation is well in progress. They make their way down the platform toward the bench. We don't hear what they're saying because...

...Spades Kingdom. The two girls approached the kingdom walls cautiously, uncertain of what beast would try to jump them. They couldn't take any chances. "Hey there, ladies~" greeted a young man as he walked up to the two of them. "What're ya gals doing here? Gonna try out the ferris wheel?" Jade eyed the young man carefully and stood between the stranger and Summer. "What? I just finished finished it," he said with a pout. "So what're ya gals here for?" "Black onyx," Jade said without hesitation. "We're giving our weapons a personal touch," Summer explained. "What? You're just gonna grab and go? That ain't any fun!" the man whined. Summer looked around the kingdom. There was a variety of attractions there like the ferris wheel the young man had mentioned, but there was also the merry-go-round and the rollercoaster that seems to span across the kingdom itself. Her eyes seemed to sparkle with excitement. "It wouldn't hurt to have some fun here," Jade said after seeing the look in Summer's eyes. "Shweet!" the young man said with a big grin on his face. "What d'ya gals wanna start with first? The merry-go-round? The games?" "How about your name?" Jade said curtly. "What? Ya don't know of Spades Kingdoms' Guardians?" Jade just stared at the young man, he certainly bared a great resemblance to the one that gave the local news. "It's Letto, right?" Summer asked, wondering if the young man had a guise when giving...

...Among the ten generally accepted auditing standards is the standard that requires an auditor to have independence in mental attitude. As with so many rules and guidelines set forth by the government and numerous other organizations, the interpretations of many of these rules can be vastly subjective. During the case against Health Management’s founder Clifford Hotte, his co conspirators and the auditors at BDO Seidman the defendant’s attorney Michael Young brought forth the idea that according to the generally accepted auditing standards that requires an independence of mental attitude it never formally states that a friendship between an auditor and the client is be completely prohibited. The dilemma with deciphering the interpretation of the standard is determining where the line should be drawn between these relationships and the auditor’s ability to maintain these relationships and the independence considered necessary to give an unbiased opinion when it comes time to write a report that is unprejudiced and reliable to the public and investors at large. Let us begin with Health Management’s CEO Clifford Hotte and CFO Drew Bergman’s 1995 inventory fraud scandal by which author Michael C. Knapp’s assertion could be considered as one of the least ingenious corporate fraud scams to date. The objective was to increase inventory as well as make minor adjustments to a small number of other accounts in order to reach the companies target earnings as reported by analysts previously...

...a “wild hair” and wanted to have Phillip Higginbotham over for dinner with him and his wife. Howard’s wife’s name is Susannah, and they both wanted to keep excellent relations with the hotel tycoon. This would be the first time Philip would be over for dinner at his lawyer’s home. Phillip stood at 6’2 when he arrived at the doorstep of Howard and Susannah’s home in Myrtle Beach for dinner. He had a well-trimmed, dark brown, mustache at this time because he was in his prime, at around thirty-five years of age. None of Phillip’s hair was gray. The Rabinowitz’s welcomed him inside, and they all immediately headed toward the cherry wood, long, dining room table. On the dining room table, there sat, two five-pronged, candelabras that could almost obstruct certain diner’s views from one another. The Rabinowitz’s allowed Mr. Higginbotham to be seated at the head of one end of the table, while Mr. and Mrs. Rabinowitz sat opposite of each other, but both near Phillip. While none of the seating arrangements were planned this way, Mrs. Rabinowitz could easily see Phillip, but Mr. Rabinowitz had an obstructed view of his wife, Susannah. “Well, I hope y’all are hungry,” she said with enthusiasm in her Southern accent. ”I’m sure we’ll be about ready to pop after eaten’ yer' food, Mrs. Rabinowitz,” Phillip stated. “Oh Phillip, everybody calls me Susannah, and you can do the same,” she playfully exclaimed. They both just smiled, quickly, at each other, and Phillip nodded at Susannah in agreement...

...high school. He’s a handsome kid, jet black hair, blue eyes with a quick but guarded smile. Larry likes Ritchie’s affable and good-natured personality, but Ritchie could care less. He’s a loner. Ritchie Braddock doesn’t say much, but Larry thought Ritchie to be a pretty level- headed guy, mainly because he doesn’t bullshit too much. Catching Ritchie on a talkative day is tough. ~~~~ “Hey numbnuts! Ritchie! Hey! Over here!” Larry yelled out his car window. Traffic zipped along the busy tree-lined street making plenty of noise; none of Larry’s yelling got my attention until a city bus rushed past me on the street just a few feet away, jolting me from my uneasy melancholy. I opened my eyes wide but my eyelids were heavy and tender. I don’t remember sitting down on the bench and don’t know how long I’d been there. Sounds came to life: the traffic, horns, and the gaggle of high school kids talking. All talking, all talking, and none listening. Larry pulled his car to the curb directly in front me, I was rubbing my eyes hard. “Ritchie, Ritchie, what’s up, man?!” I was a little surprised to see Larry McClary in the driver’s seat of a beautiful navy-blue Chevy parked smack in front of me at the curb. Now I recognized the voice. I was more surprised that Larry remembered me. He was older than most of us and kind of a teenage icon among the locals, particularly the girls. I forced my senses wide open and took in the fresh spring air, but a dull ache throbbed behind my eyes...

Well, the expression on its skull-like face seemed to indicate such an emotion. “I’m just a regular ol’ demon, Sir! I was just tryin’a do my job, honest!” “A demon?” That didn’t seem possible. “Yeah!

Why should I let you go, huh?” “I was just doing my job!” James was far too tired to deal with this now. “Will you promise not to come back?” The demon frowned. “B-but… You’re an easy target. Making nightmares for you’s a piece of cake; your life is a nightmare already.” James mirrored the demon’s facial...

...When you hear the words "young adult dystopian", what are the first things that come to your mind? Wait, don't bother; I'm going to do a checklist for you: ☑ There is a special, teenage snowflake... ☑ ... who insists she is average and normal... ☑ ... but catches the attention of one or two or three love interests... ☑ ... who without the help of experienced adults... ☑ ... manages to topple an oppressive government/system. Am I right, or am I right? However, you need not fear because The Glass Arrow took a completely different direction, deciding to give this world-renowned checklist a big "fuck-you". It may not look like at first, but this standalone YA dystopian is about an unfortunate girl who was stuck in an unfortunate, cruel world and strived to escape it in order to lead her own life in her own terms. There is no teenage character who tries to start and lead a rebellion, no tyrant or government with all the resources in the world tumbling down because of one person... this book isn't that at all. And that is what basically makes it unique. Meet Aiyana, whose auction name is...

...1937 OF MICE AND MEN by John Steinbeck Copyright John Steinbeck, 1937. Copyright renewed by John Steinbeck, 1965. Published by arrangement with Viking Penguin, a division of Penguin Books USA Inc. ONE A few miles south of Soledad, the Salinas River drops in close to the hillside bank and runs deep and green. The water is warm too, for it has slipped twinkling over the yellow sands in the sunlight before reaching the narrow pool. On one side of the river the golden foothill slopes curve up to the strong and rocky Gabilan Mountains, but on the valley side the water is lined with trees- willows fresh and green with every spring, carrying in their lower leaf junctures the debris of the winter's flooding; and sycamores with mottled, white, recumbent limbs and branches that arch over the pool. On the sandy bank under the trees the leaves lie deep and so crisp that a lizard makes a great skittering if he runs among them. Rabbits come out of the brush to sit on the sand in the evening, and the damp flats are covered with the night tracks of 'coons, and with the spread pads of dogs from the ranches, and with the split-wedge tracks of deer that come to drink in the dark. There is a path through the willows and among the sycamores, a path beaten hard by boys coming down from the ranches to swim in the deep pool, and beaten hard by tramps who come wearily down from the highway in the evening to jungle-up near water. In front of the low horizontal limb of a giant sycamore there is an ash...
