It should be called "The" Grip Book........2007-10-01
Michael Uva knows his stuff. Stimultaneously entertaining and informative. In addition to expertly covering the grip business, Mr. Uva strongly advocates working hard, working safe, and being honest. His own personal success indicates that he practices what he preaches. The grip book covers not just what the equipment is and how it works, but how the grip should work and interact with other professionals on the set, (even the ones with which the grip might rather not interact). Much of the advice given in this book could be just as easily applied to any area of life where a person wants to be successful and respected when working with others. I haven't read a better book on this subject. It's required reading for anyone who grips for us unless they went to one of the better film schools, in which case it's not required, just recommended.
Good for noobs and experienced alike.......2007-09-11
A wealth of information. Good for helping newbies get familiar with the equipment and how it's used. Great illustrations and DVD. Experienced grips will find the TOT's (tricks of the trade) helpful as well. The "Grip Rap" theme song is hilarious.
Grip book & DVD right on target.......2007-07-03
I hit the dvd first and it was great! Very fast paced, but that's what is needed. Don't have a lot of time to sit and watch tv. Author goes over each piece of equipment so by the end of the dvd, you've been introduced to a very large selection of grip stuff and know how it's used.
The book then goes more in depth and more about how to act and how to get along with the others around you. Very Very valuable stuff here even if you're just dabbling in the business.
Highly recommended.
aka the grip bible.......2007-06-14
if you need to learn the basics of gripping this is a good place to start
Grip Book by Uva.......2007-01-03
It is what the title says. I think it is missing some of the older industry jargon but that probably doesn't matter. This is the only grip book you'll need. The only way to learn more is to actually work on a set.
Customer Reviews:
Great insight on the dynamics of boys. .......2007-07-05
This book was funny and easy to ready. More importantly it was extremely insightful. I loved it. As a single mom, I need really appreciated the candor and no-nonsense approach the author took.
This is a great book for understanding boys.......2007-02-27
I bought this book because it became clear to me that I do not understand my 3 year old son and I realized it would only become worse as he grew older if I didn't at least try to figure out what is going on from his perspective.
I think that this book really tells it like it is. He doesn't sugar coat it. I also think the person who took offense to his saying boys should stay out of daycare until 3 years old did not read the book very carefully. He does not say that mothers should not work, he says boys should not be put in institutionalized day care settings but that good home based day care or staying with a family member is acceptable. I've read this in other books as well that boys just don't do well in daycare they really need one on one close time with a single, consistent care-giver be it mom, dad, grandma or a home day care.
This book also says many times how it is not trying to put women down or trying to set back the women's movement, it is just trying to show how boys are different. I have already noticed this with my children. I have two girls and a boy and I quickly picked up that my son is 6 months to 12 months behind his older sister in his speaking, reasoning and his ABCs. I talked to his preschool teacher about it and was relieved to find out it is normal for boys to be behind girls and the teacher said exactly what this author says, boys catch up somewhere in middle school but until then they are 6-12 months behind girls emotionally and academically. My son has a September birthday and I will be holding him out a year to start kindergarten at 6 instead of 5. I have already seen it in his preschool class how boys are treated, unwillingly as defective girls. Girls take to things like circle time and learning while boys would rather vroom cars and build block towers. I agree whole heartedly with the author that boys acting out in preschool is because they are anxious or stressed out. Girls withdraw when stressed, boys act out, often aggressively.
If you are ready to hear what this author says then buy the book. He is very strong on dad being a big part of a boys life and goes as far to say if dad is working 55 to 65 hours a week he won't cut it as a dad. This is hard stuff to hear, but if you want your son to grow up to be a good man it will take sacrifice on everyone's part. If we want our daughters to marry good men we need to make sure that we are raising good sons.
not recommended as very one sided.......2007-02-25
i started reading this book and became very distraught as the information the book was implying that I am in for all sorts of trouble and my baby will be emotionally unnavailable if he goes to day care before 3 years old. And this is what ig got in the first 30 pages. I also found as I am a single mum, it had little to no consideration to me (2 pages), and most children these days are brought up by separated parents or single parents, and generally the mother is the sole carer. Luckily for me my mum is a psychologist for relationships and children and clearly expained all you need to give is love and good base foundation with clear rules and be available for your son, and also agreed that this book should not be taken as gospel nor correct and it is very one-sided. for a best selling book, i thought it was terrible
Not quite up to the press. . .. .......2006-11-10
I much prefered "Raising Cain" over this book. There was no real new information, and little advice worth noting.
we've been Doing It Wrong for decades ~ and EveryOne is.......2006-08-20
paying a terrible price...
since when did the feminist yada get turned into Girls Are Better? It's all about girls having equal opportunities blah blah blah...
i never knew WHAT they were talking about -
it's GREAT to be a girl if you're a girl; it's great to be a guy if you're a guy!
why neuter everyone out???
no one seemed to be noticing the father problems running rampant in the life histories of the strident feminists...
unless you cure cancer or win the oscar, all this Women Can Work Too just lead to an insane rise in the cost of buying a house so that women HAD to work if they wanted a nicer home in a better school district...
Way To Go... that's what can happen when women charge ahead without consulting the men...
which just turned the tables, and didn't improve a Thing...
it seemed stupid... but in the last 10-15 years, it's clearly been destructive to be anti-boy, anti-male...
so now the books of single women are titled "Are Men Necessary?"
No... no one is necessary... but if we're gonna be in this thing at all, we might as well be in it Together...

spare lucid prose, gravid with meaning and power.......2007-08-25
Chronologically reversed, Happy Baby engages the interiority of its characters with a deep sense of discovery. The lyrical engine of the novel contains subtlety, torque, and a kind of dauntless embrace of suffering and consolation that succeeds in drawing from the well of terror the water of exultation. In the face of the desolate, Elliott's art is tender, fearless, lovely.
oh, do stop whining.......2005-09-03
Fictional tale of a farked up childhood in care. Has a gushing jacket quote from JT Leroy so if you like his/her writing then you will probably enjoy this. Was terribly slow to get going and I stopped caring after 30 pages.
I Am Forever Changed.......2005-07-20
Elliott is a Master Craftsman among poseurs. It is truly my one wish in life to be able to mold words with such a deft graceful gentle hand and yet one that grips the heart and the very soul with such acerbic force. The possibility of any future pleasure in reading has been utterly dashed for me as I know I have now drunk from a stream at the very peak of literary genius. I weep.
Buy This Book Already! Stop Equivocating!.......2005-07-19
More than any other book I have read in the last three years, this one has stuck with me. Happy Baby is a literary story that holds the reader in suspense, and that finds beauty in an unlikely subject. Stephen Elliott writes with grace, and benevolent restraint, and without adverbs or excess ornamentation. His novel tells a story of redemption, it will almost leave you breathless, and it has a hidden ending. You will love this book.
Exquisitely honest........2005-07-19
I loved this book. I loved the crucial word choices, honesty, and form. It was one of those books that stuck with me in this strangely satisfying way. Read it.

Love Humble Pie and the Faces, but didn't love this book.......2000-06-05
As far as I know, there aren't too many books out there on two of the greatest rocknroll bands, the (Small) Faces and Humble Pie. Needless to say, I was very excited to learn this book exists. In addition to the subject matter, I was attracted to a very handsome cover and the generous amount of rare photos found throughout. However, I was soon disappointed to discover that this book fails to paint a complete picture of the various incarnations of the bands portrayed. The book seems to be a rush job; covering dates, album and song titles, but fails to get to the heart of the matter. I would have liked to have read more stories from band members about the recording process, touring, and live performances. Perhaps I've just been spoiled by the many books on the likes of Dylan, Beatles, and Stones.

Book Description
Here is a fun trip through a period of time in the middle 1930's. As we enter into the life of George at this time, we find that we are not looking at him as just a person in a story. We begin to sense a feeling of being with him, and as we see the happiness in his eyes, we share it with him, by his side, step by step. It gives us hope that we, as well as George, can hold on forever, to the memories and dreams of those days when just maybe, we too were barefoot and happy.

Among the hottest casino games today are the video poker and related machines. Frank Scoblete knows and tells which machines offer the best odds and what strategies give you the biggest payouts on each. In some cases, the proper strategy will even tip the odds in your favor. Along the way he also explains machines for such similar games as video blackjack, video craps and video keno; wisely discusses money management and takes time out for bits of pure fun. Pay special attention to the chapter on whether casinos cheat at video games--it could influence where and how you play.
Customer Reviews:
THE GOOD, THE BAD.......2006-11-12
This book was one of the video poker books I read while I was still something of an occasional amateur at this game. To his credit, Scoblete covered many different types of video poker games in the book, and was one of the first writers to question whether the payback of the machine could be determined from the displayed payback schedule for each winning hand. Now, the word is out that in New York the video poker banks of machines are controlled by a master computer, and hitting winning hands depend on the master computer and not on the skillfulness of the player--the same as a lottery. I am also suspicious of video poker machines at tribal casinos and aboard cruise ships. In Nevada and Mississippi the payback of the vp machines is based on the posted payback schedule and a randomly shuffled deck.
The bad is that the author obviously is not a professional vp player, and scoffs at the idea that some professional gamblers make their living off vp (they do!). I believe vp is not the author's preferred game. Some of the strategy heirarchies are difficult to understand or wrong.
The author is prolific, and knows a great deal about casino gambling in all its faces. His best book, in my view, is "Guerrilla Gambling." He is referred to in my book "Casino Gambling for Fun and Profit: Second Edition."
J. Edward Crowder
Finally a Video Poker Book that Makes SENSE.......2003-12-24
The strategies in this book are written in plain English and are easily memorized and understood. You would think a book such as this would be dry but Scoblete has enough filler material in addition to the strategies that the book is actually quite enjoyable to read. And it has improved my video poker game immensely.
Phenominal!.......2003-05-05
Words cannot describe this book...it is simply amazing. I'm a huge Frank Scoblete fan, and this book has to be one of my all time favorites. It tells you everything you need to know. It's great!
Victory at Video Poker!!! Key Word: Victory...........2002-07-11
Scoblete is victorious!!!!!!!! This was the first book I picked up written by him, because it was recommended by several of my friends. I figured he was just another gambling writer......but I was wrong. He is amazing!!!! I've never read anything like it!!! I read 2 more of his books after this one, and I only had great things to say. I'll definately be reading more of them. Scoblete is magnificent.
Video Poker is NOT SLOTS.......2002-03-20
You can get the edge at these games, if you know the right ones to play and the proper strategies. You'll find them in this book. Ignore advice to the contrary by foolish reviewers. The right video poker machines can be beaten!

Book Description
Are you getting a true picture of your company's performance?
This explosive issue and its implications are fully explored in "Real Numbers." The authors, each a chief financial executive, describe how management accounting evolved to this point and how simplicity and clarity can be restored -- particularly in a lean organization. The management accounting model illustrated in "Real Numbers" points the way to unlocking the true profit potential of lean.
Customer Reviews:
Recommended for starting a Lean- or QRM-journey.......2007-03-11
This book is written in a simple manner for managers and operation people, as well as for controling and financial people. Failure of implementing JIT/Lean or QRM is often due to false understaning of the operations part itself and resistance of employees for change, but on the other side as well keeping old cost accounting practices and therefore numbers/reports not showing the improvements made. To judge improvements, you first need to know about what different cost exist and their real leverage. E.g. many companies still believe, inventory cost is a single digit percentage of a part cost p.a. ..
Traditional cost management has some basic flaws, mainly considering that modern companies have a different structure compared to the ones, when most cost accounting methods where developped in the past. Without changes in cost accounting thinking related to what is going on in your company, even succesful operational changes will never become visible. In the worst case the numbers shown by your actual system will even show worse performance and JIT/Lean or QRM will be quickly dropped! Unfortunately even intelligent people have some trouble to really interpret reports and we often do not dare to ask simple questions as e.g. can I really see something out of this numbers? I'm not stupid, but often I must confess not to see something of real value out of some crunched number. We should more often start to ask ourself, what the hell we are doing with numbers? Without this critics, we are flying blind most of our time - and succes should not only be a question of luck..
Accuracy or precision is not the same and the book provides you good information, where the pitfals may be. Lean means as well, that more closures and more frequent simple cost information is better for operation purpose, than looking monthly back.
Any good and "heavy" book about JIT/Lean or QRM should provide some information about adaptation of your cost accounting system. Once again, as a very positive example to be mentionned here, the book Quick-Response-Manufacturing does so by explaining one aspect - more detailled information will be provided by this book here.
I loved the expression of the authors about "change the reports, not the people.. ". There lies a lot of wisdom in this word.
Best Regards,
Oliver
Lacking in Structure and Worked Examples.......2006-11-08
The book "Lean Thinking" by James Womack and Daniel Jones came out 10 years ago. I must confess I was rather underwhelmed by it at the time, but now lean is impossible to ignore - organisations of all sizes, in all sectors - from local authorities, to transport, to manufacturing - are adopting lean management. Lean is now on the agenda of organisations everywhere, and that means that accountants are increasingly being required to know lean techniques.
I strongly believe that "lean accounting" is a set of skills that will be much in demand in future, and I believe, equally strongly, that management accountants are well placed to take advantage of this opportunity. "Real Numbers: Management Accounting in a Lean Organization" appears to offer an insight into management accounting in lean organisations, and the skill sets we need to adopt to be a key part of the lean revolution. The book opens with a fine description of the challenge - "Accounting departments produce information that runs late and is often misleading. Few managers fully understand the columns of numbers and variances presented in their reports".
The book then spends 25 pages arguing the case for change. A five page summary I could accept, but this seems excessive - surely my buying this book presupposes that I accept the arguments ?. I am looking to be enticed into the exciting new arena that lean accounting offers; I am looking to be inspired; and to be given tools to empower me in this field. Unfortunately, "Real Numbers" keeps regaling me with the problems of cost accounting. We are constantly reminded of the drawbacks of absorption costing, but never quite led into the promised new land.
And that is the main problem with this book. It seems to lack a clear direction, or even structure. Instead it meanders between apparently random thoughts, without much raising my level of excitement or interest. For example, the chapter on performance measures provides some interesting ideas, particularly on making ROI relevant to employees at all levels, and on using "total lead time" in indicators rather than just process time, but it fails to show how it all ties together. There are no worked examples, or "Balanced Scorecard" type structures to integrate different measures. Indeed, the book lacks worked examples throughout and this is another major weakness.
After the chapter on performance measures, we have a long and apparently structureless section about streamlining the finance function. This is more a random collection of thoughts, including how the desks should be rearranged, than any structured approach to restructuring the accounts department.
But there are interesting sections in the book. The chapter on remodelling the profit and loss account is useful (though, I suspect, pretty familiar territory to management accountants), and it contains a valuable warning that in the early years of lean, financial statements can show a reduction in profitability as stocks are liquidated; though this can be countered with the clear cashflow benefits. There is also some intriguing discussion of introducing Kaizen (breakthrough improvement) teams into the accounts department - sounds fun !. And the chapter on introducing the lean philosophy to capital budgeting (using lifecycle costs, including the impact on working capital) is excellent - though, again, is let down by a lack of worked examples.
The book closes with an illustration of how the cashflow benefits of lean finance future growth, with some outstanding examples from US enterprises. The final line of the book exhorts accountants to "rediscover your relevance". It is a shame the authors didn't use this mantra more in its writing. The overall pace is ponderous, the style meandering, and the lack of worked examples is a real omission.
The last book I read on lean accounting - "Who's Counting? A Lean Accounting Business Novel" (available on Amazon.com) was a hammy introduction to the concepts of lean accounting, but at least it was readable and had a clear direction. I much prefer it to this uneven and poorly structured mixture. I don't see how you could introduction lean management to the finance department using this book. While there are some interesting sections, overall it is a disappointment, I am sad to say.
Points the way for years of progress.......2006-01-21
Most lean accouting books - in fact most books - present what they consider the solutions, the final answer. Real Numbers does present some answers, but more importantly, they provide the direction. By painting a picture of the ideal state that we should all be shooting for, they give us the guideposts to help us make progress and improvements day after day after day. This is much more powerful, because the progress that follows reading and applying this book can last for years. It is also more flexible because we can adopt what they are teaching to a wide variety of settings and companies. Furthermore, the authors have done it - they were there making it work. I think 10 years from now we will still be referring to this book as an important contribution to lean accounting and to accounting in general.
Transforming the Bean Counter..........2003-09-22
The book's presentation makes a case for accurate and timely information that is easily understood and actionable. Whereby it is now time to take the benefits learned from implementing lean manufacturing on the shop floor into the office and remove the blinders of old traditional accounting systems. Doing so transforms the accountant from bean counter to a valued partner in the business.
Discussions include:
* a strong section on performance measurement - what the financial team should be measuring in place of current traditional accounting reports.
* how to streamline the process and bring about meaningful change
* a practical methodology for making the transition away from cost accounting - to go from micro accounting to macro accounting
* plain English management financial systems - what they are, why to use, benefits, and how to get them using the one day close method
* new concepts in budgeting (the lean budget) and capital planning whereby one looks at reduction in inventory and flexibility instead of per part cost
* lean acquisitions - what to do with all that new found cash
The final three chapters are my favorite where Jean and Orest take their boardroom management skills and depart wisdom to the reader. Here it is explained why the CEO and CFO must become active leaders, the benefits of breaking from tradition, and the twelve principles of lean accounting.
This is a must read book for everyone who wants to shed the role of bean counter or who has struggled with bean counters and their misunderstanding the accounting side of lean manufacturing.
