Caught in the ACT
We each hold deep-seated beliefs about three facets of our lives: what we do (and are not willing to do); what we know (and are certain that we don't know); and what we are (and are not). These are basic activities and we invest each of them with our life force. Yet they always slip through our fingers: Being, doing, and knowing come and go. In Caught in the Act, Toinette Lippe--with wit, a laser-sharp eye for detail, and a sense of the contemplative--brings us on a journey of daily awareness so that we can truly see the makeup and direction of these forces and how they shape our existence. With this book, we learn to give up the illusion of identifying with the thoughts, things, and activities that we call "I"--a vital step on the spiritual path and in the search for an authentic life.

Kmart's Ten Deadly Sins: How Rogue Managers Ruined an American Icon by Marcia Layton Turner, ISBN 0471435937
News that discount giant Kmart was filing for bankruptcy in early 2002 sent shockwaves through the retail community. How could a brand as widely recognized and firmly fixed in our cultural lexicon be teetering on the brink of extinction? Depending on who you talk to, Kmart’ s fall from grace can be attributed to any number of factors. In the first in-depth examination of Kmart, author Marcia Layton Turner reveals the real reason behind Kmart’ s troubles– bad management– and discusses how the large personalities and even larger dreams of Kmart’ s misguided leaders played a significant role in transforming this once profitable retail titan into a bankrupt behemoth.
Even though Kmart has emerged from bankruptcy, the truth is that the company has made a number of bad decisions throughout its forty-year history– some seemed like good decisions at the time, while others were obviously off base.
