The Hanil Visitors Center is positioned between a restored hillside and an industrial complex to the west. As a vivid example of how concrete can be used with a lowered environmental impact, the Center features a significant amount of reused concrete from the poring of some exterior walls to the subsequent walls and the roof. The building itself uses the thermal properties on concrete to modulate the internal temperatures. The substantial recycled concrete roof lowers internal temperatures, while the southern walls use the recycled concrete in steel cages to form a wall system.
The entrance has a series of openings facing the factory in order to frame the Center's education mission. The Center has many samples of repurposed waste concrete products, and the company intends to continually update the displays with their latest research on environmentally-responsible technologies.

The Mustang's Braking System Explained
One must first understand the basics of the braking system to fully understand where improvements can be most beneficial. While through the years, the braking components on the Mustang have varied somewhat, the general basics and core components remain the same.
The brake cylinder assembly, located between the engine and the drivers side fender of your Mustang, responds to the brake pedal being pushed inside of the car. Above the cylinder assembly is a brake fluid reservoir. The reservoir is usually semi-clear plastic, allowing you to easily monitor the level of fluid inside of it. As the pedal is pushed, brake fluid is pushed through the tubing to the brakes located at each wheel. This fluid in turn pushes the pistons in the Mustang's brake calipers, forcing the brake pads to contact the rotors and induce friction. This friction slows your Mustang down.
The brake cylinder found in the Mustang is split into two sections--the master cylinder and the slave cylinder. The master cylinder controls the front brakes, while the rear is controlled by the slave cylinder. The hydraulic lines in modern anti-lock brake equipped cars first travels to the anti-lock brake controller which can control the pressure in the brake lines going to each wheel to help prevent the individual brakes from locking up. It does this based upon feedback provided by a sensor positioned at each wheel that well cover a little later.
What are your Mustang's commonly replaced braking items?
At each wheel, youll find the braking component that actually performs the majority of the work when your Mustang comes to a stop. These components are also the items where routine maintenance is generally necessary to replace worn items.
Brake Pads
Brake Lines
5-lug Swap (Fox Body Mustangs only)
Replacing your Mustang's disc brake rotor and caliper
The largest component found at the wheel is the brake rotor. It spins along with the wheel, as its held by the studs for the wheel's lug nuts. The brake rotor is a high grade of steel, and will often get a coating of rust very soon after a vehicle is washed, or sits in the rain. Youll see this often with cars at a dealership waiting to be sold. This is nothing to worry about, and the brake pads will clean the rust coating off the first time they stop the car.
Surrounding a section of the rotor on your Mustang is the brake caliper. Brake pads sit between the caliper and the rotor, and its the friction between the pad and the rotor that stops the car. Modern Mustangs use a separate holder for the pads, allowing the caliper to be removed with the pads remaining in place. A piston on the backside of the caliper applies the pressure that squeezes the contact surface of the pads against the brake rotor.
Drum Brakes
The Mustang hasnt seen a rear drum brake for many years. However, on older Mustangs, such as the Fox bodies, a front disk and rear drum brake setup was common. Instead of utilizing a disk, the drum brake uses a slightly different configuration, with the pads positioned inside a steel drum. Disk brakes offer more stopping power, and a rear disk brake conversion is often at the top of the list for those with rear drum brakes. On top of that there are more mechanical parts involved with drum brakes, so routine maintenance is a little more complicated due to the various springs and clips needed.
Anti-Lock Components
With the introduction of anti-lock brakes, a few additional components were installed at each wheel. These are a toothed speed sensor ring and a speed sensor. The sensor sees the teeth passing by it, knowing that this means the wheel is rotating. When the brakes are applied and the sensor sees that the teeth are no longer moving by the sensor, it knows that particular wheel has locked up. The anti-lock control unit will then pulse the braking power to that particular wheel.
As a side note, the anti-lock braking system is also used by the traction control system as well. If the sensors indicate the wheels are spinning too fast for the cars actual speed at the time, power from the engine is restricted until the wheelspin is corrected.
Popular Brake Upgrade Options and Choices
Brake Pads
The factory brake pads can often be noisy, as they have a tendency to squeal when applied after the car has several thousand miles on it. They also produce a lot of brake dust especially on the front of the car, as the front brakes work harder than the rear. While braking performance from the stock pads is much improved in the newer models than in older Mustangs (Fox-Body owners know exactly what I mean), those who push their cars harder will undoubtedly look for more braking power and less braking fade when repeated high speed stops are made.
There are several aftermarket pad options to address these concerns. Carbon-based pads such as the HPS pads offered by Hawk are an example of this. If youre looking for the ultimate in stopping power, and a near complete elimination of brake dust, then ceramic-based pads may be an even better option. Ceramic pads provide quiet, powerful, and near dust-free operation that is superior to even the best carbon-based pads. When compared to stock replacement pads, high performance pads are a little more costly, but well worth it if youre looking for improved operation.
What is the right pad for me?
There are 3 questions to ask yourself when buying new pads. How hard to you drive/brake? What type of driving do you do? What is this pad going to be used for?
- HPS = great for aggressive driving styles.
- Ceramic = great for average driving styles.
- HP+ = 2005+ Mustangs only
Conversion Kits
Improved pads and rotors will help you enhance your cars braking ability, but it will only take you so far. If youre aspiring to move to the next level, conversion kits are the way to achieve this. Think of a conversion kit as a supercharger for your brakes, giving you a substantial increase of 50% or more stopping power. Conversion kits vary widely in price, depending upon the route you wish to follow. Ford offers the upgrades found on its special edition Cobra and Mach I Mustangs, while renowned companies such as Brembo offer high end conversion kits that offer the ultimate in stopping power.
Should I upgrade my Mustang to a big brake kit?
For high performance Mustangs, people tend to work on maximizing the amount of power that their motor creates, but they never consider that when you drive faster you will need to stop faster. Upgrading to a big brake kit will increase the surface area of your brake pads and rotors, allowing the system to work faster and more efficiently.
Brake Lines
Another popular upgrade option is aftermarket brake lines. The factory brake lines are often rubber-based, which tends to flex under heavy use. Aftermarket lines that utilize stainless steel with materials such as Teflon do not flex and expand under the extreme pressures the lines see when the brakes are applied heavily. The result is better braking response, and a much firmer feel at the pedal.
Brake rotors can be replaced as part of a conversion kit, or as a part of their own. Heat is a byproduct of the friction between the rotor and the brake pads. To enhance braking power, youll want to combat the heat. Aftermarket rotor manufacturers do this in a variety of ways. First, they may use a different grade of metal for the rotor. Then techniques such as cross-drilling or slots, or maybe even a combination of both, also help provide more surface area and better airflow to aid in cooling.
One thing to keep in mind with aftermarket rotors is maintenance. Some shops will not machine slotted or cross-drilled rotors, which may make maintenance a little more trouble than it would be with stock components. So plan ahead, and make sure you have plans for when that day arrives.
Choosing Between Cross Drilled or Slotted Brake Rotors For a Mustang
Both styles work well to dissipate heat that builds up during braking, but many times cross-drilled rotors tend to crack under extreme braking conditions.
Cooling Kits
Youll also find various brake cooling kits on the market that use air to cool the brakes. Generally this is performed for the front brakes, as they tend to do most of the work. The kits usually use openings that were designed for fog lights, or maybe even part of the openings that direct air to the radiator. Then ductwork channels the air towards the brake rotor and brake pads.
Line Lock/Brake Control
The drag racing crowd will often use a unique brake accessory to help facilitate heating up the tires during a burnout. Often referred to as a line lock, the Brake Control is used to lock the brakes on the front wheels in place to hold the car still during a burnout. To do this, a solenoid is activated by a switch after the brake pedal is pressed. The solenoid then holds hydraulic pressure on the front brake lines, in the same manner if you had kept the brake pedal pushed down. The difference is that the rear brakes are not activated. This saves wear and tear on the rear brake components when compared to trying to use the entire braking system to hold the car still for a burnout. It also allows the rear tires to turnover easier than with the brakes applied which, in turn, does a much better job of heating the tires up for starting line traction.
If youre looking for a way to enhance the appearance of your Mustang, but dont want to shell out the cash for new brake equipment, caliper paint or caliper covers may be just what youre looking for. The Dupli-Color kits are a good example of caliper paint, although there are many different options available. Some manufacturers even offer caliper paint that is an exact match to the exterior paint on your car.
Another alternative is caliper covers. Caliper covers are made to fit over your existing calipers, giving them the appearance of an aftermarket caliper. They also help reduce the amount of brake dust that reaches the wheel. Installation only takes a few minutes, and therefore even easier and less time consuming than painting your existing calipers.
Should I go with caliper covers or caliper paint on my Mustang?
For the best results, we recommend the caliper covers. The caliper painting process can be messy and inconsistent. There is also a lot prep work involved. The caliper covers eliminate the mess with an easy bolt-on installation.
As you can see, theres a lot more to the braking system than simply a set of pads and rotors. Theres also a whole new frontier that is ready and waiting on upgrades should you have the need or desire. So next time you have a little cash burning a hole in your pocket due to being bit by the upgrade bug, remember your cars braking system. There are several upgrade options that can easily set your car out from the rest of the Mustangs on the road!

2004 Dodge Stratus Camshaft Position
I have a 2004 Dodge Stratus with a 2.4 DOHC motor and the check engine is on and when I read it It says Camshaft Position sensor A bank 1 CKT Intermittent I have replaced the Camshaft Sensor and Now the light wont go off If u push donw on the gas the car acts like its not getting any gas and jerks and then goes and does that every so often and once u get over 65 mph it wont go at all and I cant reset the computer at all now can u help
disconnecting the battery should have turned the light off . before buying a EGR vaulve disconnect the vaccum line and plug it off. if the car runs better just leave it disconected.u dont need it any way.its just for polution control.but the light will stay on... if it doesnt work put your foot on the brake,car in drive,and give it some gas . if it dies out then u will know that it is the Throtle positioning sensor.if none of this cures your problem its posible that they gave u the wrong camshaft sensor.... u can also check your fuel filter but this might be in the gas tank...
misrpiggy Posts: 2Hi, did you ever find out a solution to this problem? I've replaced my sensor twice, and with no results so I put the old one back on, after slightly wiping off the end of the cam and it seemed to help for a bit but I am having the problems again.. any help will help. thank you
vairman3 Posts: 1I replaced belt now car is hard starting , and when it starts runs ruff will rev upto about 1500 rpm.after few minuets smooth out somewhat,the crank & cams time marks were lined up.It acts like flooded at first. After run little while it starts to over heat, exhaust manifolds turn cherry red.Can timing be off 180 deg?this is an interference engine.also had to replace tensioner
jaredyayo Posts: 1so at least i'm not the only one. i had the cam sensor replaced on the vehicle not 48 hours later it was doing the same thing. i did the whole unhook the battery and left it off over night. shut the engine light off but not soon after it continued. i don't want another garage to tell me my cam sensor is bad and if its as simple as unplugging something or whipping something off i'm game! any other recommendations are greatly appreciated.
hnn1 Posts: 1After months with same problem finally I could pinpoint this problem!!!!, in some way cable harness become damaged with a very sharp corner of fuel rail on one of the cables of camshaft positions sensor, I'd remove all tape from harness on this corner (Just where the sensor cables go in to the harness) I check for damage and found one of the cables punctured, so when engine vibation was severe groundind occurs and computer goes into safe mode... solution... I protect this corner wit a plastic cover to prevent future damages and put some tape on damaged cable... computer and car working perfect rigth now and gas MPG goes from 17 to 21.. good luck, hope this help you on solve this issue
fluffysheep Posts: 1When I went in to O'Reilly's auto parts and bought a new cam shaft position sensor for my 02 Dodge Stratus 2.7L The gentlemen informed me I needed to stop back in and have him reset my computer so that it'd register that the sensor was replaced. It seems like a lot of people posting here are having the same issue, I think you guys should find a auto store that does free engine diagnostic on check engine lights because that diagostic reader can reset your computer, too.

After more than two months and much anticipation, it looks as though the seat in the 46th Senate district will finally be filled. YNN's Nick Reisman has more now on the race that came down to less than two dozen votes.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- "This is just the latest victory, we picked up seats that nobody thought we could win and this is just the icing on the cake," said Michael Gianaris, (D) Senate Democratic Campaign Chairman.
The 46th Senate district, which stretches from the Mohawk to the Hudson valleys, was added by Republicans as a 63rd Senate seat in the redistricting process, upping the number of seats in the chamber from 62. Tkaczyk was able to keep the race close thanks to an influx of outside money, most notably from the son of billionaire George Soros, who backed an independent effort to promote public financing of campaigns.
"It clearly back fired for the people who made the district for George Amedore because Cecilia Tkaczyk is the winner," said Jessica Wisneski, Citizen Action.
But Amedore battled back the in absentee and paper ballot count, with the contest eventually turning to the courts. Amedore would be certified the winner by an acting Montgomery County judge, but Tkaczyk's campaign pressed forward. After today's final count in Democratic-heavy Ulster County, Amedore's legal options ran out.
"For me it's it. I imagine there will be a conversation at some point but I don't believe I'm going to be involved in anything else. I've certainly exhausted everything I can think of," said David Lewis, Senate GOP lawyer.
An Amedore spokesman said he will not challenge the results of today's count and Amedore released a statement thanking his campaign staff. For Tkaczyk, running for re-election in two years may prove tough after such a close victory.
"Well, she's got two years to prove that she'll represent this community well, the communities all across and up the district and bring real victories like campaign finance reform, a raise in the minimum wage, and so many other laws that New Yorkers want to see done," said Wisneski.
And Tkaczyk herself says she's just trying to get used to the new title of senator. "I'm very excited, I can't wait to get started, finding out where my office is and letting people know how to contact me and getting out as much as possible as I can in this huge district," said Cecilia Tkaczyk, (D) Duanseburg, Senator-elect.
What Tkaczyk's victory doesn't do is change the balance of power in the Senate. The chamber is led by a coalition of Republicans and five independent Democrats.
Statement from Cecilia TkaczykIt is an incredible privilege to have been selected by the people of the 46th District to serve as their State Senator. No one believed our campaign had a chance in a district hand-carved by Republicans, and yet the power of good ideas and a strong campaign proved itself. Thanks to all those who volunteered both on the campaign itself as well as the successful post-election ballot counting process. I am honored to stand with Democratic Conference Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, and my fellow Democratic Senators, in pursuing the common sense, progressive agenda that New Yorkers demand. I look forward to hitting the ground running to serve my new constituents because there is no time to waste addressing the many challenges facing our state.
Statement from George AmedoreI want to thank the constituents that I've had the honor to serve, as well as those who supported me in this campaign. I am proud of the honest and clean campaign that I and my team ran in this extended race. I was supported by the hard-working upstate families who are faced with tremendous challenges in these trying times. The time for politics has ended and the time to govern is at hand. As a small businessman born and raised in upstate New York, I understand the everyday issues. I believe our representatives need to act on behalf of those who call upstate their home. As I've done throughout my life, I will continue to advocate for the people's needs and hope for a brighter future.

Tag rugby is a non-contact, fast-moving game that is suitable for adults or children, and for boys and girls to play together.
Its safe, non-contact nature, combined with the fun and liveliness of the sport, means that tag rugby is now the RFU's official version of the game for under-7s and under-8s.
The use of a either a tag belt or tag shorts replicates a tackle and is clearly seen when an effective tag has been made. Teams are seven-a-side with a preferred gender mix of at least three men and women playing at one time. (Teams can choose the gender of the seventh player).
The game has suggested progressions to allow the development of players and introduce more elements of the 15-a-side game. Coaches should use tag rugby to make their players see where space is and encourage evasive running into spaces and not faces.
Tag is a fast-growing version of the game, and the RFU encourages all clubs and playing organisation to look to organise regular tag rugby activity to increase fitness and participation.

Sergio Perez says he has "no idea" whether Force India are up there with Mercedes after topping the timesheets on successive days.
The former McLaren driver has been the pace-setter this week in Bahrain, quickest on days one and two.
However, it's not just pace where the VJM07 has excelled as Perez was also able to put in the laps.
The Mexican driver completed 105 on Thursday and then added another 108 the following day.
"In the last two days we've made great steps forward," he told the official F1 website. "And believe me: we needed days like these, as we've had a bag full of problems and so days like these go down very well.
"It was so rewarding because we could raise our learning curve substantially. And learning is what brings you forward in times like these where you have a completely new car to deal with. The team has done a fantastic job which has made us move forward big time.
"Today was my last day (in the car) before Friday in Melbourne and to leave this test with a comfortable feeling in the belly makes me believe that we are in good shape for Australia."
Taking a snap shot of the timesheets on Perez's last two days in the car one could argue that Force India are right up there with Mercedes and McLaren.
The driver, though, downplayed those claims.
"I have no idea - but the idea sure sounds nice!
"Of course it is our target in the long run and the team is working - and has been working - for it very intensely. And I think it is not too far fetched, having big targets.
"Right now everything seems possible. True, I don't precisely know where we are, but where we are feels good."

What's in a post game comment? For Bills receiver Stevie Johnson, the answer Sunday was frustration.
"I think we need to let our quarterback call these plays," he told YNN after the game. "I think (Fitzpatrick is) out there on the field, he sees the adjustments that need to be done.
"I think we should just let him make the adjustments on the go. I think that's when we can move the ball better."
Johnson was then asked if he lost faith in the play calling, and responded with the following.
"The play calling is cool. The plays are good that we have. In situations, we're the ones out there on the field. (Fitzpatrick) knows what to check into, check out of. It's different when you're up there in the booth. . .than being out there."
Those comments raised some eyebrows among football fans and media. Naturally, it was a hot topic during Monday's media availability.
"The intent was basically - more so audible," Johnson told the media. "I didn't mean changing play calling duties and all that. I may have said that, but what I meant to say was 'audible.' Giving Fitz the ability to audible a little more."
Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick offered his agreement.
"Sometimes we get into a better flow when I'm able to go out there, especially with (Johnson) and the way he runs routes and things, and give him some routes at the line and do some of those different things," Fitzpatrick said. "That's something we've done a lot in the past, and did a few times in the last game. I think that's just what's on his mind." In light of the post game comments, players say there's no disconnect between Johnson and the coaching staff. In fact, Johnson and Fitzpatrick are both quick to point out that the wide receiver's game flourished under Chan Gailey.
"I wouldn't even be here now," said Johnson. "I wouldn't be the number one receiver or have the contract that I have if it wasn't for Coach Gailey. I've got too much respect for him to go about it the way that it is perceived to be."
"You gotta understand it's the heat of the battle," added Gailey. "If you don't know a guy, you might tend to get really upset. But if you know a guy, you know where his heart is, even though he might not have said it exactly right. You know where his heart is. I know Stevie."

The EUR recovered from a 2 year low against the USD and rose against most other currencies as oil prices stabilised and the Ruble recovered on reports that China will come to the aid of the beleaguered currency. USD had strengthened during the Asian session amid speculation that the Fed may hike rates as early as April next year, while central banks in the Eurozone and Japan will maintain or even widen stimulus measures.

2014 is quickly winding down, even as global events appear to be picking up steam and the last two trading weeks of the year will be short ones. Last week the Fed urged considerable patience with the policy normalization process, but we were clumsily informed the Fed's own patience would be finite - apparently the tightening launch is "at least a couple" (two) meetings away. The markets will remain focused on the plunge in oil prices and the myriad ... Read More ►

Bridgewater Draft and Highlights Video
Adobt-A-Viking: Josh Robinson
18 Tackles, 2 INTs, 45.7 Passer Rating
|Sponsored Links
Anyone know if Cordarelle Patterson has declared for the draft? I honestly think he may end up being the best of the class if he does. So much explosiveness on that 6' 3" frame. I've seen a couple sites say that his potential is turning heads and that right now he could go in the first and with a strong bowl game, combine, etc. could contend for the first receiver off the board.
mfw thinking of adding that to Peterson and Harvin. ray:
I still want Keenan Allen, but either of the Tennessee guys are fine too.
My first mock draft of the year. I'm prediciting the Vikings will pick at roughly 20.
Round 1: Alec Olgetree LB: I really want Chance Warmack here, but he will be off the board. With Keenan Allen off the board as well, Ogletree is the pick here.
Round 2: Robert Woods WR
Round 3: Barcarri Rambo S
Round 4: Omoregie Uzzi G
Round 5: Tyrann Mathieu CB: I'd be shocked to see him even get drafted, but I say take a chance with him here. If he keeps his head on straight, the Vikes have a new starting safety and return man.
Round 6: Aaron Murray QB
Round 7: Alonzo Highsmith LB
Round 7: Alex Hurst T
Take your pants off
I don't care who we draft as long as his position reads "Wide Receiver"
I cant wait to stand on the podium with Zygi and Mark and Jonathan, and were standing on the podium, and we look up and the confetti is falling down on top of us, and were all hand in hand, and Commissioner Goodell comes over and hands the Super Bowl trophy to Mr. Wilf and tells him hes world champion, that is my goal and that is my drive.

I just don't like Justin Hunter... He doesn't have good Hands just size and speed. It also rubs me the wrong way that Da'rick rodgers and Patterson were able to out produce him. Rogers without Bray or Hunter.
Minnesota Vikings
Has Robert Woods stock dropped that much?

If it' pick 6 in the 2013 NFL Draft and Te'o is still on the board would anyone be willing to trade our 1st and 2nd? (versy similar to Dallas for claiborne).
Minnesota Vikings
If Murray declares I don't see anyway that he drops to the 6th round

OWENSBORO, Ky. (6/13/13) - On Tuesday, a Louisville-based bank with 18 locations across 12 western Kentucky counties celebrated what PBI Vice-President Business Development Officer Bradley Osborne called "an opportunity" to show our involvement with the community" of Owensboro and Daviess County, as ambassadors and other supporters from the Greater Owensboro Chamber of Commerce gathered at the bank on Frederica Street for a ceremonial ribbon cutting.
Established in 1902, PBI Bank opened the branch here in Owensboro in 2007, but Osborne, who joined PBI about three weeks ago, said the decision to become more active with the Chamber is a recent development.
"We understand the business community is growing in Owensboro," he said. "We want to show our involvement with the community. We want to be a true, traditional community bank."
PBI Bank's Owensboro branch is located at 1819 Frederica St.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

"Everyone Should Read This!"
I have listened to it several times and recommended it to many people I work with as well as my husband. It's message that we all have limited energy is a critical one.
I changed some of the things I do in my life.
Always strive for an open mind.
"Good but limited"
The author definitely knows their subject
Not a lot of practical guidelines, due to the briefness. The Power of Full Engagement gets in a lot more depth.
Editor Black Velvet Seductions Publishing
"Instinctively Knew Some Of This But Great Read"
This was a short piece which was tightly focused on energy and how to manage energy. It began from the standpoint that time is a finite resource whilst energy can be renewed. Then it went into the ways to renew energy. Great listen. I will undoubtedly listen to it again - something I do with very few titles.
I liked the tight focus. It focused on one area and covered it well. I'm definitely looking at more from the Harvard Business Review.
He was easy to understand, didn't speak too fast or too slow and seemed to impart an enthusiasm for the topic which was enjoyable.
Tell us about yourself!
"Good one"
Good one! Thanks to Audible for having this in store. I would recommend this book to my family and friends.
"A good read"
This was a good read, especially for the price. I would definitely recommend it to friends or coworkers. There are about 4 key things I took from this article that I noted of and will take with me through my career and life.
"Excellent information!"
Very informative... I liked how the book addresses the traditional method of managing our time, and shows how focusing upon allocating our energy can be far more profitable and beneficial to our goals
I listen to a lot of everything. I really enjoy fiction, but also business books, self-improvement and lectures.
"Short & to the Point!!!"
I enjoy HBR's articles and this caught my eye. Like others, they give you the information you need. It's to the point. I immediately was able to implement some strategies.
The performance was OK. Like a lot of development books, it is on the dry side.
Yes. I commute 30 minutes to work and I was able t listen to most of it in one sitting.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
