The Consumer's Guide to Health Savings Accounts

By: JoAnn Mills Laing

“Let’s get the consumer in the game. The idea behind HSAs is a ‘supercharged IRA’ for health care...No other program is as tax advantaged.” –John W. Snow, Treasury Secretary “...HSAs can drastically lower an employer’s costs of providing employee health benefits. This may allow more small businesses to offer such benefits.” –Fed Brock, The New York Times “These accounts give workers the security of insurance against major illness, the opportunity to save tax-free for routine health expenses, and the freedom of knowing you can take your account with you whenever you change jobs.” –President George W. Bush “Laing’s new book (The Small Business Guide to HSAs) lives up to its name...an excellent explanation of how HSAs work...” –Greg Scandlen, The New York Post The Consumer’s Guide to HSAs answers the question “What’s in it for Me?” But responsibility doesn’t stop there. You must read your medical reports, check statements, and count your pills carefully. Ask questions. Keep records for future use, and soon you will realize as much of the benefits of consumer-driven health care and HSAs as possible.

The Janus Principle

By: JoAnn Mills Laing

THE JANUS PRINCIPLE offers solutions to the often vexing task of organizing a large organization (and even small firms) into an effective marketing engine to profitably sell into the small business marketplace. Addressing the rapidly expanding role of the Internet and other electronic gateways, the authors also demonstrate how to more effectively use traditional sales tools in an integrated marketing effort. The authors have distilled 20+ years of experience advising Fortune 100 corporations as well as researching the small business marketplace into a concept that large and small organizations can adopt and use. THE JANUS PRINCIPLE is an easily understood and implement approach that helps focus the selling organization (large and small) on those factors that breed success in this enormous, still growing market. THE JANUS PRINCIPLE takes its name from the Roman god of the portal or door that looks both outward and inward. The book lists specific things you need to do to successfully sell to small businesses, and describes how to utilize direct mail and online channels together to profitably sell over the Internet.

Globalization

Prospects and Problems

By: JoAnn Chirico

Globalization: Prospects and Problems, by JoAnn Chirico, provides a comprehensive and enlightening overview of globalization issues and topics. Emphasizing the theory and methods that social scientists employ to study globalization, the text reveals how macro globalization processes impact individual lives—from the spread of scientific discourse to which jobs are more or less likely to be offshored. The author presents a clear image of “the big globalization picture” by skillfully exploring, piece by piece, a myriad of globalization topics, debates, theories, and empirical data. Compelling chapters on theory, global civil society, democracy, cities, religion, institutions (sports, education, and health care), along with three chapters on global challenges, help readers develop a broad understanding of key topics and issues. Throughout the text, the author encourages readers to relate their personal experiences to globalization processes, allowing for a more meaningful and relevant learning experience.

North Plainfield

By: Mario Caruso,Bruce Ryno,Joann Kohler

Nestled in the northeast corner of Somerset County lies the small, 2.9-square-mile borough of North Plainfield. It is bordered on the northwest by the first ridge of the Watchung Mountains and, to the south and east, the Green Brook provides a natural boundary between Union and Somerset Counties. Rock Avenue, on the west, divides North Plainfield and Green Brook. This borough, named for its proximity to the city of Plainfield, was primarily a farming community. Its growth was stimulated by the mills and quarries built along the streams that flowed through the area and by the construction of the Jersey Central Railroad in the 1850s. North Plainfield grew from 75 residents in 1832 to 4,000 by 1885. Today, approximately 19,000 people reside in this peaceful and picturesque community.

Cleopatra the Great

The woman behind the legend

By: Joann Fletcher

Cleopatra the Great tells the story of a turbulent time and the extraordinary woman at its centre. She was Greek by descent – the last, and greatest, Egyptian pharaoh. But our understanding of her has been obscured by Roman propaganda, Shakespearean tragedy and Hollywood, with little attempt to tell her true story – until now. In the first biography for over thirty years, Joann Fletcher draws on a wealth of overlooked detail and the latest research to reveal Cleopatra as she truly was, from her first meeting with Julius Caesar to her legendary death by snakebite. Bringing the ancient world to life, Cleopatra the Great is full of tantalising details about the Pharaoh’s infamous banquets, her massive library, her goddess outfits, beauty regimes and hairstyles. Joann Fletcher discovers the real woman behind the myth.
