It should have been a cushy job: Vern, the dragon detective, and his partner, the mage Sister Grace, are given an all-expense paid trip to Florida to chaperone a group of Magicals at a Mensa convention. Then the pixies start pranking, the Valkyrie starts vamping and a dwarf goes to Billy Beaver's Fantasyland hoping to be "discovered." Environmentalists protest Vern's "disrupting the ecosystem," while clueless tourists think he's animatronic. When the elves get high on artificial flavorings and declare war on Florida, it turns into the toughest case they aren't getting paid for. Based loosely on the award-winning serial mystery, Magic, Mensa and Mayhem will keep you laughing wherever you rank on the IQ scale. ...."Wisdom of the Ages, Knowledge of Eternity, and I end up a babysitter at the Smart Humans' Convention."-Vern

In the area of specialised learning, do you know what Limon or Vanila (10 letters) refers to? And in the matter of tricky clues: what's the five-letter answer to 'nui loa' ('Fondest regards, ' in Maui)? Give up? Answers: ANTIDEPRESSANTS, BACARDI RUM, and ALOHA.

ÿMC Flux, AKA Carl Rodney Thomas, is a top drum and bass MC, a UK pioneer in this type of dance music. Inspired in his teens by reggae, back in the 90s he became Youth Champion of the Reggae Young Sounds competition. Talent-spotted for top clubs, he was soon the MC of choice for raves such as Innovation, Desire, Dreamscape, World Dance, Innocence and Helter Skelter. He even formed his own clothing company. But Flux has spent plenty of time on the dark side and dicing with the law ? he has often been in the front line during violent clashes at soccer matches, and his involvement with drugs led to him serving a prison sentence for false imprisonment and demanding money with menaces. This is his raw, colourful story, written with the help of his close friend Peter Spence, better known in the dance world as Pete Nice. Vivid and explicit, this is not a story for the faint-hearted.

A marketing management course shouldn't be treated like a principles class. And, an upper-level text doesn't need to be written like an encyclopedia. That's why Marketing Management, 2e by Michael Czinkota and Masaaki Kotabe takes a direct, "no bull" approach, bringing concepts to life without dry explanations and unnecessary "extra" information. Theoretical and practical considerations are balanced throughout. Coverage of critical and contemporary marketing topics includes integration of e-commerce and a unique chapter on estimating marketing demand.
