The United States bills itself as the land of opportunity, a place where anyone can achieve success and a better life through hard work and determination. But the facts tell a different story - the US today lags behind most other developed nations in measures of inequality and economic mobility. For decades, wages have stagnated for the majority of workers while economic gains have disproportionately gone to the top one percent.

“Don’t be evil” was enshrined as Google’s corporate mantra back in its early days, when the company’s cheerful logo still conveyed the utopian vision for a future in which technology would inevitably make the world better, safer, and more prosperous. Unfortunately, it’s been quite a while since Google, or the majority of the Big Tech companies, lived up to this founding philosophy. Today, the utopia they sought to create is looking more dystopian than ever.

My name is Wyatt Davis. And I’m in love with my girlfriend’s dad. I’m spending the next three days under his roof in sunny Pensacola. It’s a family trip meant to bring Amy’s dad and her mom closer together after months of marriage trouble. But a secret cave rendezvous between Mr. Patterson and I quickly leads us down a forbidden, passionate 24 hours of lust—in the family bathroom, on the beach, and even on boats. The closer we get, the more we risk getting found out. But if it means winning Mr. Patterson, that just may be worth it.

Amy's telling her mom, her mom is threatening divorce, and all I can think about is when I can be alone with Mr. Patterson again. The moment of truth is here. Mr. Patterson must choose between a hole and a hard place. Is it worth staying in his broken marriage for the sake of his family? Or is my power over him too much to resist?

In a triumph of marketing, the Tasmanian salmon industry has for decades succeeded in presenting itself as world's best practice and its product as healthy and clean, grown in environmentally pristine conditions. But what are we eating when we eat Tasmanian salmon? Richard Flanagan's expose of the salmon farming industry in Tasmania is chilling. In the way that Rachel Carson took on the pesticide industry in her groundbreaking book Silent Spring, Flanagan tears open an industry that is as secretive as its practices are destructive and its product disturbing.

I have a confession to make. It was only after I was in the presence of my girlfriend's dad that I felt like a man for the first time. But a smaller man. A man who could submit to another man. Something about that thought makes me feel really manly. I can't explain it. I can't talk to anyone about it. If Amy knew that she’d throw a fit. Me and Amy are getting close now. So close I'm accompanying her to Pensacola for her family's beach trip this summer. After we arrive, as Amy and her mom catch up in the house, I find Mr. Patterson on the beach.

Sin embargo, tantos datos suelen causar en los líderes una parálisis que obstaculiza la toma de decisiones. David Meckin descubrió que, independientemente de la empresa, el sector, sus objetivos, desempeño o etapa de desarrollo, en realidad todo se reduce a cuatro indicadores básicos.

Hi there! Here are Books 1 through 5 of my newest series: “Horny Husbands, Humiliated Housewives,” all neatly bundled and deeply discounted for your reading pleasure! In my experience, there are multitudes of husbands out there who, on the one hand, love their wives dearly—and in every way. Sadly, when it comes down to sex-stuff, these wives often let modesty, innocence, or conservative morals get in the way of giving their husband some of what they truly want—even if it’s naughty, kinky, or just plain dirty. Hey, guys like ‘dirty’—it’s how they roll. If only their wives ...

Miles de personas están preocupadas por su imposibilidad de adquirir unavivienda en propiedad o, incluso, en arrendamiento. Sin embargo, esta problemática sigue siendo percibida como una preocupación individualizada y no como el problema estructural que realmente es.

We all know the bad news. The heady promise of the Arab Spring has given way to repression, civil war, and an epic refugee crisis. Economic growth is sputtering. Income inequality is rising around the world. And the threat of ISIS and other extremist groups keeps spreading. We are living in an age of unprecedented, irreversible decline - or so we're constantly being told. Jonathan Tepperman's The Fix presents a very different picture.

The United States is embarking on a medical revolution. Supporters of personalized, or precision, medicine—the tailoring of health care to our genomes—have promised to usher in a new era of miracle cures. Advocates of this gene-guided health-care practice foresee a future where skyrocketing costs can be curbed by customization and unjust disparities are vanquished by biomedical breakthroughs. Progress, however, has come slowly, and with a price too high for the average citizen.
