A Whale Teaching Quantum Physics?
It turns out that the wavelength of neutrino oscillations is about the same as the wavelength of whale songs.
If my wave theory serves me right, lower harmonic waves over time have less distortion and can travel great distances. Seems that the now endangered whale worked out communication long before us and in simple ocean water.

ELKO — The Elko County School Board voted unanimously Tuesday to approve a 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan that would include funding of a new Elko elementary school.
The $31 million project would begin in the 2015 fiscal year, but comes at the cost of a couple other projects.
"We feel the elementary school will take priority," said Superintendent Jeff Zander.
The postponed projects include expansions at Elko High School and Spring Creek High School.
The Spring Creek High School project would have included new vocational buildings and classrooms, and would have begun this fiscal year. The project was estimated to cost more than $13 million.
The Elko High School project would have included a performing arts center and vocational facility, estimated to cost nearly $6.5 million, starting in 2015.
The board also discussed what to do with an unused modular building it owns. The building may be moved to Wells Elementary at a cost of about $200,000.
"The bulk of that amount is all in development of the pad," said Steve Bowers, building operations and construction manager for the school district.
Board member Dean Hartwig suggested the district sell the modular, but Zander believed the district could use it.
Also at the meeting, the board reviewed and approved the final 2013 budget. The school district is still waiting on $577,000 from the Bruneau-Grandview School District for some 60 students attending the Owyhee school.
"This issue isn't about the dollars, it's about the liability with the students, and it's important the parent district pays for that," Zander said.

This application is a continuation-in-part of my application Ser. No. 08/590,592 filed Jan. 24, 1996, now abandoned, entitled A METHOD FOR INHIBITING THE FORMATION OF STRIATIONS DUE TO SKIN TENSION which, in turn, is a continuation-in-part of my application Ser. No. 332,925 filed Nov. 1, 1994 now abandoned, entitled MEANS TO PREVENT STRIATION DUE TO SKIN TENSION.
The present invention relates to a method for inhibiting or preventing the formation of striations on the surface of the skin. Such striations, often referred to as stretch marks, are common results of pregnancy.
Human skin has two distinct layers. The first or outer layer consists of epithelial cells (also existing in a layered configuration) attached to each other and forming the surface of the skin. The outer layer is often referred to as the epidermis. The second or inner layer is a connective underlying tissue. This underlying tissue is attached to the epidermis and includes a network of elastic fibers which extend between bundles of collagen (dermis). The elastic fibers have rubber like properties, that is, they stretch easily and return to their original length when the deforming force is removed. The direction of all fibers is parallel to the surface. Other elements of the dermis are fibroblastic, macrophage, fat cells.
For some reason, which to my knowledge is not yet completely understood, the elastic fibers and colagens of the dermis (intradermal connective tissue) are very frequently dissolved or weakened due to hormonal changes during pregnancy. The striations may be a result of excess in adrenocortical hormones.
The mechanism by which corticosteroid induce striae is believed to be due to the inhibition of collagen fiber formation.
In the early stage, light microscopic findings are subtle. The connective tissue is separated by edema and there is mild chronic inflammation. Late in the disease, the epidermis and dermis are thinned. The individual collagen fibers are thin, layered and oriented in the direction of the stress. Elastic fibers are decreased in number or absent and may appear frayed.
Electron microscope studies demonstrate thin elastic tissue fibers in early striae. During the late stage, the fibers appear thickened.
The change in the intradermal connective tissue is not generalized but is segmental. As a result the elastic fibers of the healthy areas will place the weak fibers of the weakened areas in traction and pull the epidermis in the weakened areas toward the healthy areas. The net result is that the epidermis or outer skin layer in the weakened areas will stretch and provide unsightly striations of the skin.
There is a need to inhibit stretching of the epidermis which would otherwise occur when the underlying elastic fibers are degraded due to pregnancy.
One of the objects of the present invention is to describe a method for preventing skin striations to occur because of skin tension resulting from pregnancy or other hormonal changes.
In accordance with my invention I provide a adhesive-backed flexible reinforcing membrane which will form a bridge between the healthy and the weakened or otherwise impaired areas to prevent the tensile forces between these healthy areas from stretching the epidermis of the impaired areas. By placing such a membrane over the surface of the skin to bridge the healthy areas of the dermis, the whole epidermis area is reinforced and stabilized. The membrane effectively neutralizes the forces of the elastic and collagen fibers of the heathy dermis areas and prevents the impaired areas from being stretched out causing stretch marks to appear. Once the cause is treated by delivery to allow the elastic fibers of the impaired areas to repair their strength, the stretch-preventing membrane can be removed.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a very thin sheet of suitable plastic material in the form of a breathable polyurethane or copolyester film covered with an adhesive backing which may be secured to the affected areas of the body to prevent the separation of the epidermis by reinforcing the surface during the time that the body is undergoing the hormonal changes.
It may thus be seen that the objects of the present invention set forth herein, as well as those made apparent from the following description, are efficiently attained. While the preferred embodiment of the invention has been set forth for purposes of disclosure, modifications of the disclosed embodiments of the invention as well as other embodiments thereof may occur to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the appended claims are intended to cover all embodiments which do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Novel features and advantages of the present invention in addition to those mentioned above will become apparent to those skilled in the art from reading the following detailed description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a pictorial view of a pregnant woman on whom is positioned and taped a one-piece sheet of material in accordance with the present invention (e.g., adhesive backed membrane) that is adhesively secured about the abdominal area and a second sheet positioned and taped about the breast area;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged end view of a small portion of the sheet as shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the sheet of FIGS. 1 and 2; and
FIG. 4 is a top plan view of an adhesive backed membrane with lateral markings thereon spaced one centimeter apart.
Referring now to FIGS. 1-3, there is illustrated a body, generally indicate at 10, of a female having a enlarged abdominal area 12 which is due to a pregnancy condition. In accordance with the present invention, the area is covered by stretch preventing membrane 16 adapted to prevent stretching of the individual's underlying skin. The stretch prevention membrane 16 comprises a thin adhesive-backed-high-moisture-vaporization-elastomer film 18. Such a film may be made from polyurethane, a copolyester, or a block copolymer. The film 18 preferably has a thickness not exceeding 0.0020 inches (e.g., 2.0 mil.) and most preferably has a thickness within the range of about 0.5 to 1.0 mil. The adhesive 20 is applied to one surface of the film within the range of about 0.5 to 0.1 mil. in thickness.
The adhesive is also preferably pressure-sensitive and nonsensitizing hypoallergenic. The adhesive may be an acrylic copolymer. The adhesive properties may have a typical peel adhesion value within the range of about 300 to 900 g/in.2, and preferably within the range of about 400 to 600 g/cm2.
The moisture-vapor-transmission rate of the adhesive-backed film or membrane is preferably within the range of about 1,000 to 12,000 g/m2 /day.
A releasable backing sheet 22, made of silicon-coated paper, for example, may be placed over the adhesive coating and subsequently removed when the membrane is to be applied to a patient's or individual's skin. Another releasable backing sheet 24 may be placed over the film 18, if desired, as is shown in FIG. 3.
The adhesive backed film or sheet 16 preferably has a ratio of tensile strength in pounds/inch width (lbs/in. width) to elongation in inches within the range of about 1.0 to 2.0 with applied loads of 3 to 7 lbs/in. width and most preferably about 1.25 to 1.50. For example, with an applied load of about 5 lbs/in. width, the elongation of an adhesive-backed polyurethane film is preferably about 350% and at 3.0 lbs/in. width the elongation is about 275%.
The presence of the stretch preventing membrane 16 inhibits and substantially prevents separation of the epidermis tissue during the time that portions of the underlying dermis structure are undergoing adverse changes, that is, losing their elasticity and strength, (due to changes in the elastic fibers and collagen tissue) necessary to hold the epidermis in a cohesive structure and prevent separation of the epidermis or outer skin layer.
The film may be provided with a multiplicity of very small or microscopic holes to enhance its breathability.
Two suitable materials (polyurethane and copolyester, respectively) for use in the present invention are marketed by the Specialty Tape Division of Avery Dennison under the product number MED 5020 and by Bertek, Inc. Under the product name Medifilm 325 (or 390,426). Both films are provided with a pressure sensitive adhesive backing. These films are marketed for securing IV's in place and for covering wounds.
The membrane sheet 16 has a length (extending horizontally about the body) of say about 20 cm or more and a width of at least 10 cm (i.e., 10-20 cm) to accommodate a women's lower and upper abdominal area which expands due to pregnancy. The membrane may be considerably larger than the above dimensions depending upon the size of the individual. Preferably the membrane should cover approximately the area between the symphyses pubis to the xyphoid, in width, and extend lengthwise from 10 to 20 cm on each side of the midline (or the linea nigra) of the abdomen. Such area may be referred to as the major area of the abdomen which is likely to develop stretch marks during pregnancy.
In accordance with my method, the membrane is taped across the surface area of the body when the elastic fibers of the underlying tissue or dermis may be or is being subjected to excessive stress, e.g., during the sixteenth-fortieth week of pregnancy. Talcum power, titanium oxide powder or other suitable non-sensitizing moisture absorbent powder may first be applied to the skin area to receive the membrane. Preferably a non-oily, quick-drying, emulsion-based lotion is applied to the skin area prior to the application of the membrane. The lotion provides moisturizing and emollient properties while the membrane is in place and is very important for the comfortable release of the adhesive when the membrane is removed. In addition, the lotion should provide a correct balance for skin ph, antioxidant and antibacterial properties and stabilize the emulsion. One such lotion is sold under the tradename Nivea. The lotion aids in the subsequent, relatively pain-free, removal of the membrane without adversely affecting the ability of the adhesive-backed film to reinforce and stabilize the underlying epidermis area.
The membrane is to be left in place for an extended period of time until the underlying cause for the degradation of the elastic fibers or dermis has been removed during the term of the pregnancy. For example, the membrane should be left in place about 75 to 90% of the time, and preferably about 80-95% of the time, from about the twentieth week of the pregnancy through the termination of the pregnancy and preferably from about the sixteenth week through the fortieth week, or sooner if the pregnancy is terminated before the fortieth week.
It should be noted that development of stretch marks in the epidermis is a slow process and it is not necessary for the patient or individual to have the stretch prevention sheet to be continuously attached to the area to be protected. While the membrane may be left in place during a shower or bath, it can be removed for short periods of time, if desire, to allow the individual to wash the area underlying the membrane.
FIG. 4 illustrates a sheet of the adhesive backed membrane with one centimeter markings 26 thereon to aid one in cutting the sheet to the desired length.
The foregoing should only be considered as illustrative of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes may readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation as shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the claimed invention.

Habitat's UK business to go into administration - but Argos owner HRG is circling
Habitat is being broken up and the bulk of its UK business could be placed into administration as early as today.
Argos owner Home Retail Group has offered between £20m and £30m to buy parts of the household furnishings chain's underperforming UK business, while Habitat's international business has also been put on the block.
Details of the deal, which was still being thrashed out last night, would see Home Retail retaining three key London stores and selling the brand almost exclusively through its Homebase chain.
Break-up: The Mail first revealed how Home Retail began talks to buy the brand
But the remaining 30 Habitat stores would not be part of the deal
and it is understood that the most likely option is that they would be
placed into administration.
If this happens around 900 Habitat jobs are at risk including head office staff, although some might be saved.
Home Retail would also retain and run Habitat stores on London's Tottenham Court, Finchley Road, and King's Road.
Habitat's international business in France, Spain, Germany and
Italy, which has been performing strongly, would not be affected by the
administration and are being sold separately.
In what has been one of the gloomiest weeks for Britain's battered
retailers an announcement could come as early as this morning. On
Thursday, the firm behind the Moben and Dolphin bathroom brands took
the first step towards administration as hard-up shoppers rein in
spending on all but essential items.
Home Retail's deal would see the Habitat facia virtually wiped off the face of the High Street.
Created in 1964 by design guru Sir Terence Conran it rapidly became
a trend-setter in furniture design but has lost its way in recent years
under the ownership of the Kamprad family, heirs to the Ikea fortune.
Just 18 months ago they sold it to restructuring firm Hilco, run by chief executive Paul McGowan.
Over the past two months he has held talks with Home Retail's Terry
Duddy about a number of options including a licensing deal, first
revealed in the Daily Mail.
Interest from another retailer accelerated these talks which reached
an advanced stage over the weekend. McGowan previously sold the
Schreiber and Hygena brands to Duddy following the collapse of MFI.
The Habitat brand would sit well within Homebase, drawing in a new
set of middle class customers. Duddy is keen to grow the brand but is
unlikely to open more stand-alone Habitat stores when conditions
Home Retail Group (down 3.37p to 163.53p) and Hilco declined to comment.

The Oak Park Arts District is alive and well
Opinion: Letters To The Editor
I just had the pleasure of visiting Oak Park and, more specifically, the Oak Park Arts District. When I owned Bead in Hand, I rarely found the time to be a patron in my own business district. Now that Bead in Hand is in the capable hands of Kim Humphrey, I can relax and enjoy myself when I come to town. I started out with a stop at the Brown Elephant (bought a sweater) before heading to lunch with my friends at the Buzz Cafe.
We enjoyed delicious food, good coffee and great service while we visited. From there I went to Bead in Hand to get my beading supplies — always something new there! Then I got my nails done at Angel's Nail & Spa — a bargain at $12.
From there I went to Art Gecko, where artist Lisa Nordstrom's creations are so wonderful — there are so many interesting things on the wall and in the cases, it takes some time to see it all. I found several unique gifts for myself and my friends.
I stopped by the new Society Girls Shop — lots of great clothing and accessory items there. My time was up and I hadn't been to every shop, but I'll be back. If you haven't visited this gem of a business district lately, do so now!

This invention concerns a method of cathodic sputtering a solder-resistant copper layer on a substrate.
Simple thin film circuits are produced by depositing a set of layers on a substrate comprising a layer with a certain resistance constituting electrical components and a contacting layer of good electrical conductivity. The resistance layer contains preferably nichrome (Ni Cr), tantalum nitride (Ta2 N), tantalum oxide-nitride and tantalum-aluminum mixtures. Insofar as connections are to be made to the contacting layer by soldering, the contact layer must not dissolve in solder during the time necessary for the soldering operation, which is to say the contacting layer must be solder-resistant. This result is obtained, in the case of known contacting layers, by producing pure copper layers in sufficient layer thickness, which may be done with noble metals as well as with copper, or, on the other hand, by providing so-called diffusion barriers under the copper layer, in the form of additional layers of iron, nickel, platinum, tungsten or the like. The alloying of the solder right through the layer is particularly difficult to control if tin-rich solder, for example, eutectic lead-tin solder, is used. The production of sequences of different layers, and likewise the production of thick layers, is expensive and frequently connected with unusual processing and finishing difficulties. Among these difficulties are control of adhesion of the layers, control of the phosphorus content of nickel layers deposited by an electroless process and the danger of oxidation of iron layers.
It is an object of the invention to provide copper layers that are inexpensive and as thin as possible, particularly for thin film circuits, on a substrate body, in such a way that the alloying tendency of the copper is reduced to such an extent that alloying does not occur completely through the layer when connections are soldered to the terminals or contacts.
Briefly, the gas sputtering medium, preferably consisting mainly of argon, contains another gas which is partly trapped in the copper layer and reduces the conductivity of the deposited copper without reducing the conductivity relative to massive pure copper. Air, nitrogen and oxygen have been found particularly desirable as additives for the sputtering gas. The favorable volumetric proportion of these additives is not the same for all gases and varies between 0.5 and 16%; the best results were, however, obtained with additives comprising between 2 and 4 % by volume of the sputtering gas.
With the process of this invention, highly solder-fast copper layers are obtained that on the one hand are very thin, being of the order of magnitude of about 0.5 μm, that are capable of functioning without alloying additions and without intermediate layers functioning as diffusion inhibitors. Soldering times of 30 seconds at 210�C., using eutectic composition Pb-Sn solder, are easily usable without any complications.
The copper layers of this invention are produced by cathodic sputtering in a low-pressure gas discharge in which positive gas ions bombard the cathode and dislodge particles of cathode material which are projected onto the substrate at or on the anode. Direct cathodic sputtering by a diode apparatus produces shiny metallic layers. The pressure for such a discharge is, as is known, in the range between approximately 10- 2 and 5�10- 1 torr. The gas consists principally of a monatomic gas, preferably a noble gas, usually argon. The discharge gas, which may be referred to as the sputtering medium, is provided with an addition of nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2) or a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen such as air. The production of the layers thus carried out reduces the conductivity of the deposited copper, compared with pure solid copper, by a factor of 5 to 7 as a result of gas inclusions. This factor can fall to a value of 2.5 and can rise as high as the value 15. For direct cathodic sputtering in a diode apparatus, the sputtering potential runs from 3 to 8 kV, and is preferably made 6 kV, while the current density has a value of the order of 1 mAcm- 2. Gas flow through the discharge vessel can be varied between 0.1 and 3 liters per hour (as reduced to 20�C. and 1 atm.) and is to be varied in accordance with the size of the cathode that is used, the larger the cathode the greater the flow. As determined by experiment, the best layers are obtained with a nitrogen or air additive quantity of between 2 and 4 volume %. A layer thickness of the order of 0.5μm is readily produced.
These values set forth an advantageous set of sputtering parameters, which, nevertheless, can be modified by taking appropriate account of their interdependence. The rate of sputtering drops noticeably only with very high oxygen content, beginning above about 10% by volume.
Copper was sputtered in a diode apparatus in a discharge atmosphere of 97% argon and a 3% admixture of air at 5�10- 2 torr, under a potential of 6 kV and at a current density of 1.2 mAcm- 2. The experimental apparatus, in the tests set up giving these results, had a spacing between cathode and substrate of 5.5 to 6 cm, for the case of a cathode surface of 826 cm2 and a gas feed-through, reduced to normal conditions, of 1 liter per hour.
The layer thickness of the sputtered copper layer was of the order of 0.5 μm.
The solder-fastness of the copper layer can be tested as follows:
A circuit pattern is produced with contact patches measuring 1.5 � 1.5 mm2 on a substrate provided with a resistance layer and a conducting layer. The substrate is dipped into a liquid flux and then put for 6 seconds in liquid lead-tin solder containing 4% by weight of silver. Thereafter, the substrate is cooled outside of the solder bath back down to room temperature. This procedure is repeated a number of times until the solder-covered surface on the contact spot becomes smaller, usually beginning from the edges inward. The number of dip operations that must be made until the copper layer is alloyed through is a measure of the solder-fastness.
Experimental procedures of this type have shown that copper layers prepared in accordance with the above-specified parameters show an improvement compared to copper layers made with the greatest possible purity, even when the air content of the sputtering gas is as small as 0.5% by volume. The solder-resistance in these cases remains only slightly below that which is obtained with much greater expense by the provision of intermediate iron layers of 2,000 A thickness. For practical applications, the copper layers produced according to the much simpler, more reliable and trouble-free process of the present invention are fully satisfactory. The production of sputtered copper layers, according to the present invention, possesses a number of advantages compared to known methods. The deposition of rates of sputtered copper are higher than the rates of deposition of layer materials that are suitable for use as diffusion barriers. In consequence there is a significant increase in manufacturing capacity for the sputtering equipment. Corrosion problems, furthermore, such as are present when intermediate iron layers are provided in the copper, are entirely absent in the copper layers produced in accordance with the invention. The adhesion of the copper layers on an underlying layer of tantalum oxide-nitride, moreover, is improved. The sputtering equipment can be substantially simplified, particularly because of the simple construction of the cathodes. Variations in the resistance of the first layer can be held constant simply by keeping the sputtering process parameters constant, with the result that various resistivity levels can be obtained in a predictable fashion.

Is there more to life than money?
19 May 2013 11:21 GMT | Sport, US Sports
Indiana moved into the NBA Eastern Conference finals with a 106-99 win over the New York Knicks on Saturday, with a Roy Hibbert block sparking a late 11-2 run that sealed a 4-2 series victory.
Hibbert's block on Carmelo Anthony midway through the fourth quarter shifted the momentum of the game, with Lewis Stevenson the prime beneficiary, scoring nine of his 23 points during the run.
"That's why they pay me the big bucks this summer, so I have to protect the paint,'' said Hibbert, who signed a $58 million contract last summer.
"If all else fails, meaning the offence, I have to protect the paint.'' Heating upNext up is a rematch with Miami, the team that eliminated Indiana last season. Game 1 will be Wednesday at Miami.
Carmelo Anthony scored 39 points and Iman Shumpert had 19 for New York, who had another poor shooting night.
The Knicks made just 40 per cent of their shots, and again wound up on the wrong side of a 43-36 rebounding discrepancy. In the paint, New York were outscored 52-20, and Anthony scored just four points in the final 12 minutes when he went 2 of 7 from the field.
"They have a hell of a defence,'' Anthony said. "They do a hell of a job of controlling the paint, closing it down, making it tough for guys.
"You've got to give them guys credit, especially when they got a chance to set. Roy Hibbert gets to sit in the paint, causes havoc.''
Guard George Hill returned after missing Game 5 with concussion, and he gave the Pacers a big boost.
Hill finished with just 12 points on 2-of-10 shooting but had five rebounds and four assists, and kept the Pacers composed enough to commit only nine turnovers - 10 fewer than Thursday night's loss in New York. The results showed up everywhere on the floor.
Paul George had 23 points, five rebounds and four assists. David West added 17 points, five rebounds and four assists, and Hibbert finished with 21 points, 12 rebounds and five blocks, none bigger than the stuff on Anthony that changed the game. Stephenson had 10 rebounds and three assists in his best postseason game ever.
The reason: He wanted to avoid a trip home.
"I just didn't want to go back to New York and play Game 7,'' Stephenson said. "Just get it done with now and I'd do whatever it takes to do that today. It showed tonight.''Determined
The New York native made sure of it.
After George grabbed the rebound off of Hibbert's block, Stephenson took a pass from West and scored on a layup to tie the score at 92 with 4:51 left in the game.
Stephenson followed that with a steal and drove in for a layup, drawing a foul and completing a three-point play. After grabbing another rebound and making two more free throws, West tipped in a miss and Stephenson closed the decisive spurt with another layup. Suddenly, the Pacers led 101-94 with 1:53 to go.
New York never got another chance to tie the score or take the lead again despite making a far more typical 13 of 30 from 3-point range.
"It's tough to go out this way,'' coach Mike Woodson said. "I didn't make it happen for us and that's what's disappointing.''
The Pacers have a far different goal now as they get ready to face LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Miami.
"We're not satisfied with where we're at,'' coach Frank Vogel said. "We feel like there's no ceiling on this team this year.''

©2008 Zig Ziglar; (P)2008 Made For Success
"Life Changer"
Mr. Ziglar is an amazing orator and encourager. This book helped me iron out some issues and put things in perspective. I wish I could have known him!
"nothing better"
there's nothing better to improve your life. it motivates and teaches life can be great.
"Love Zig!"
He's got spot on theology and encouragement for the masses. I really enjoy his goal setting program.
"I love this book!"
I think this is one of the best books in the industry. Filled with inspiration, laughs, and great insight to keep you going. Great book!
Zig is at his best. He's focused on making his best points.
And always humorous
"Gotta Love Zig!"
This is my 3rd Zig Ziglar purchase, and like the others I loved it! Granted there is some repetition, but that just helps it to stick in my head. Nothing bad can come from listening to his recording, and most likely it so much more for you!
"Thank God for Zig!"
This always helps me stay motivated. So glad I can listen to Zig and get the good input I need to make it through the day. Rest in Peace Zig and thanks for such great inspiration!
Everyone needs more Zig in their life! The concepts and ideals are timeless and applicable to every generation!
"Never get bored, it's so motivating I love it."
I keep going back to this audio it is timeless and there Zig Ziglar although 'just' a salesman he is actually better than most of the professionals ie psychologists and academics who write books and speak. Anyway you can see I really like this audio and have listened to it probably 100x plus.
"Great book"
I've listened to it half a dozen times and I still get new value from it. You should get it
"Zig .your a legend!"
Really enjoyed "the goals program"valuable information in here.A lot of common sense amd some great and funny stories.
"Motivational, Inspirational and Practical!"
Excellent! Motivational, inspirational and, yes, very practical and rooted in real everyday life. I found the true life stories used to illustrate a point very powerful. I cannot recommend this highly enough. If you have teenage children, they would definitely benefit from these talks. They teach key principles and values for happiness and success with a contagious enthusiasm and transparent integrity. I will be listening to this audiobook at least several times more, after getting Volume I and Volume II, as this is Volume III in the series. Having said that this audiobook Volume III is complete in itself, in that you don't have to listen to the first two Volumes before listening to this.
"Bigger Wings Than Red Bull"
Never tried Zig?
You want a 'pick me up' well I've found Zig Zigglar a better boost than all the coffee I can drink, gives me bigger wings than Red Bull.
And like he says, "don't wait till your down to listen" keep listening and keep flying higher than the rest.
Zig may not be your cup of tea! But he really gives me a boost with his energetic enthusiasm for life. His stories are a great way of getting the message across, you really are a born winner, it's just up to you.
Keep rocking on- Digseyboy😜
Zig is a real class act. Every point on point. Every phrase makes you think. Found myself stopping to think
"Dated story telling"
Very funny in places. Ziglar is more like a stand-up comedian. Feels dated now and has very little actual useful content but the stories are interesting and funny.

North to turn up wick for fans at Undera
Dakota North's Shepparton friends will get a front row glimpse of what the speedway rider is capable of this week.HANNAH DRISCOLL January 8, 2013 4:05am
Dakota North's Shepparton friends will get a front row glimpse of what the speedway rider is capable of this week.
North, 21, spends the majority of the year riding in Europe, but his friends and family will be able to watch him in action tomorrow night in the second round of the Australian Senior Solo Speedway Championships at Undera.
The Kialla rider finished sixth in the first round at Gillman, South Australia, on Saturday after failing to qualify for the final.
He finished equal third with New South Welshmen Rohan Tungate and Mickey Dyer and Mildura's Cameron Woodward with nine points after five heats, but only Tungate advanced straight to the final on countback.
North was fourth on countback, but came third in the semi-final behind Dyer and Woodward.
South Australian Troy Batchelor went on to win the final.
''I was doing all right, I just messed up the semi-final to get into the main final,'' North said.
''You have to finish first in the semi and I finished third, so it's my own fault. I wasn't good enough.
''I was a little bit disappointed, I wanted top three, but there is still two more rounds left in the championships, so I'm looking forward to them.''
North hoped to improve on his standing in the second and third round and said he preferred the final two tracks at Undera and Kurri Kurri, NSW.
He was also looking forward to having his family and friends there to support him tomorrow night.
''I'm away all year in Europe, so they get to see me ride once or twice a year, so it will be good to have all my friends over to watch,'' he said.
North will return to Europe in just more than a month and hoped to keep his riding sharp by competing in the championship before flying overseas again.
