Book Description

Gambling is more popular than ever, with multi-million dollar poker tournaments on television, gambling themed movies like Rounders gaining in popularity, and casinos opening in just about every state of the U.S.

How to Cheat at Everything is a roller-coaster ride through bar bets, street hustles, carnivals, Internet fraud, big and small cons, card and dice games and more. You’ll even find the exact frauds that the NYPD regard as the most common and dangerous today, and learn top tips on how to avoid each one. This inside information comes from Lovell's lifetime of experience in the field, along with additional information from both sides of the law.

Not just a “here’s how the con works” book; this guides you through the set up, the talk, the sell, everything about the con, and how you can be suckered into one. If you think that you can’t be conned; then you are already halfway to being so! There is no preaching here, just a fun ripping ride through a world so few know about. You’ll meet wild, eccentric and larcenous characters and you’ll learn how they work their money-making deeds, all without having to risk a penny of your own money.

Quite interesting.......2007-05-31

I've made it about 70% through, and I'm very pleased. It's a broader study than The Big Con, and doesn't go into as much depth, but it hits the kind of thing the average person is more likely to see. One thing lacking is the pictures on such things as the false shuffles. I suppose you'd truly need high-speed video to really see what's happening, but more than one picture per shuffle would be a good start.

TAKES A BIT OF COURAGE TO TRY THESE THINGS........2007-05-13

If you are seeking a way to con your neighbor, you can find it here. Also possible to realize a few broken bones in this day and age. Suggest using caution when pulling some of the tricks in this book.
In society today, it may be best to be in great physical condition before you pull some of these stunts.
Most are just fun things to do and would certainly produce some good laughs.
Worthwhile reading, if for nothing more than learning what to be on the lookout for in life. A character that has the nerve to pull these stunts, would be a very interesting person to meet.

Fun informative read.......2007-05-09

Covers a HUGE array of cons/cheats...from bar bets that are a sure thing (for you) to cheating at cards to criminal scams going on today. Detailed descriptions with occasional illustrations to help you understand. I'm giving it 5 stars because I loved it, and to help balance the one-star review from the guy below who didn't even read the book.

Women do it to themselves.......2006-07-07

Come on ladies.

You set yourselves up for failure. Its obvious that "women" invented the whole "till death do us part" thing. Most men believe that is wholly unrealistic. The reason is. People grow, they change over time. You are not the same person you were 10 years ago. Where is it written that he has to love you the same as he did 10 years ago?

Have you looked in the proverbial mirror lately? Do you nag too much? Do you do to little? Do you demand too much? You do all these things, and still expect loyalty.

If theres a family involved, he might have an internal commitment to the family, not entirely to you, so although he might be trying to fulfill some missing need with someone else, is he taking care of the family at home?

What it all boils down to is communication. If he's not satisfied with you for some reason, its his job to speak up, give you a chance to change. That goes both ways. If he gives you a chance, and you blow it, dont blame him for looking elsewhere for the love he deserves.

Women think that they are the ones that deserve everything. Think about what he deserves. Most of the time he is providing for the family (unless you married a real loser).

Try not to be so self centered.

What would you do (or put up with) just to have a man??.......2005-11-30

I am a 22 year old college student and this book has helped me IMMENSELY....Being in a relationship with a man that was much older and expeienced at cheating taught me many of the lessons that I learned in this book, but this book taught me many more lessons that I can apply to my future relationships and also it gave me insight into the workings of the male mind.

Ladies, how many of you know that your man is cheating but refuse to do anything about it? How many of you suspect he is cheating but ignore all the signs just so you can say that you didn't know what was going on? How many of you say that " all mean cheat"? Have you ever provided a place for your brother to cheat with his other women? Are you the "other" woman? Well, if you answered yes to any of these questions then you are just as much as fault as the cheating man. With your help he can continue to cheat knowing that hsi partners, sisters, mothers, etc. will have nothing to say about it.

Mr. Baisden showed me how women time after time allow themselves to be used, abused, and disrespected by the cheating man oftentimes when she knows that she deserves better. Women, read this book and get your lives in order, it's time for the cheating man to pay the piper. It may hurt at first to be without him, but in the end you deserve happiness and loyalty from a man that loves and cherishes you as much as you do him. Thanks Mr. Baisden for this wonderful book.

Required Reading For All!.......2005-06-13

After reading this book, all I can say is WOW. EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS! Not only does this book tell you candidly the truth about men, how they think about sex, relationships and women, and their tricks...but it also reveals a lot about women (and the way men classify women and whom they decide to approach for what reasons), as well. Baisden discusses the four most popular groups of male cheaters (the flat-out dog, the man looking for what he's not getting "at home" or is dissatisfied with the quality of his relationship, the "nice guy" tired of being "dogged" and the guy who learned by example from his family) and then goes on to break the women these men cheat with down into different groups. After reading this book, there really is almost nothing you won't understand about the male mind in regards to sex, relationships and women...and if you REALLY don't want to know or are not sure if you can handle it, I suggest staying far away from this book. I am left with the distinct feeling that there's really no trusting ANYONE in this world, male or female, and that's an awful feeling. That said, at least your eyes won't be closed and you know exactly what to be on the lookout for. Chances are if you've been cheated on, or are being cheated on, this book will have all those telltale signs in it and you'll recognize some of them as being in your situation.

Other than finishing this book with the feeling that there's no such thing as a "good" or "decent" man and hardly such a thing as a "good" or "decent" woman, there are some issues with this book. There are some small spelling and grammar problems, but they don't really get in the way and aren't going to be noticeable to the average person. But the bigger problems include the changes in tone/purpose, the generalizations and the storytelling.

By changes in tone or purpose, I mean it seems like at different points the book serves different purposes for Baisden. For example, I got the sense that the first section WAS to reveal info to women, but I ALSO felt like it was TEACHING MEN how to get away with cheating at the same time. For example, the stories of individual men will reveal to women HOW these and other men go about cheating but the men in the stories get busted. Either at the end of the stories or afterwards, it almost always seems as if Baisden and/or the men in the stories have something to say about what that man or what other men should have done/should do in order for women to not suspect a thing if men want to cheat. One such tip is utilizing a call forwarding service so that phone calls from other women can go to a secret pager instead of the man getting calls on and being busted via answering machine or his wife/girlfriend picking up the phone. Basically, Baisden acknowledges women are smarter and very "nosy" (as if we're wrong for it when we obviously have good reason to be), so it seems as if he's trying to teach men how to take their "game" to a level above the average woman's. For example, having a pager she doesn't know about and KEEPING IT AWAY from her. Essentially, if a man is successful at this, a woman is not really going to know a man is cheating...defeats the purpose of the book...or does it?? For a woman who hasn't read this book or hasn't heard of these tricks Baisden teaches, it does defeat the purpose...reason #1 for why you NEED this if you're a woman. But while he's teaching these tricks, he will also have words of condemnation in the book for these men...? And as the book goes on, he seems even more on the side of attempting to discourage men from cheating and making negative comments about some of these men. There are other times where he seems to defend these men and/or be on their side, sympathizing with them for getting caught, even though THEY were doing wrong...as if the woman's acting on her suspicions or asking questions was just completely unreasonable. Then there are times where it seems as if he thinks women are in the wrong for not doing what their husbands or boyfriends want them to do, particularly sexually. Basically, he straddles too many fences. I understand he is identifying everyone's role and is not just blaming men or women, which is great, but there are times when his message just gets confusing--is cheating the man's fault or his woman's fault, according to Baisden? Hard to tell, though I suspect, if asked, he would say it's no one's "fault." He almost seems to want to say men just can't be faithful.

Baisden also makes many generalizations, about both men and women. I'm sure some men would object to some of the generalizations, because I object to some of the generalizations he and the men in the stories make about women, as a woman. Many of the things revealed about women and their plots for bedding men who are involved with other women, for harassing men, for holding off on sex or for waiting to call a man, are things I had absolutely no knowledge about and do not engage in. However, if Baisden and the men in these stories had their way, every man would "know" that every woman did these things and that a woman is lying if she says she doesn't. For example, Baisden insists a couple times in the book that women get along great until a man comes in the picture...and then it's "every woman for herself." First of all, I don't know too many women who get along great ANYWAY. Second, if a man is involved with someone or a friend of mine is interested in a man, that man is offlimits to me--I am not interested, and I am not hatching plans like some of the ones described in the book to "steal" that man. In fact, when I read those and told one of my friends about them, we were shocked at how low some of these women would go. Another story that I thought was ridiculous came from this man who insisted that, when women get a man's phone number, she sits down with her friends and sorts through all the mens' numbers she recently got and organizes them into categories based on looks, income, SIZE, etc. I have no doubt other women do this, but I thought it was completely absurd. First of all, if you just met a man, what do you know about his SIZE? Unless you slept with him right away, which was not the impression I got from that particular story. And you probably can't do anything but GUESS about his income. Third, the guy in that story says, as does a guy in another story, that women like to play games and wait a week or more before calling a guy (even though other parts of the book insist the opposite--that women make themselves available to men whenever, particularly in the beginning)--after she has done her phone number sorting. But I truly don't know even ONE woman who calls a man. We wait for MEN to call, and MEN play the waiting game. The book does a good job of making it seem as if all women really care about from a man is his money, just like Baisden does a good job of making it seem as if everything just comes back around to sex for men. Once again, I thought several of the stories relating to women using men for money were ridiculous--not that I believed they were untrue, but just that I couldn't understand why women do that and why Baisden and the men in the stories want people to believe all women do that.

A lot of the stories that end in men cheating, especially if they get busted, make it seem as if their wives/girlfriends were the ones in the wrong, like I said before...for example, if he came in late after actually cheating and she questions him, his tone in the story is as if she's being ridiculous or annoying for not just letting him cheat all night and get away with it. They act as if it's their right to cheat, as if it's their wife's fault for not doing whatever whenever with them and any reason why not--even if she is going through serious hormonal challenges after having a baby--is just a bs excuse, and as if women should just exist to have sex with them and then leave them alone. A lot of the men end their stories with seemingly no remorse. Many of them are like, "Oh, well, I'll be careful next time." A lot of the stories show men going through a WHOLE LOT just to cheat without being found out, then their covers are blown and they just seem to shrug their shoulders and intend to start all over again doing the same thing. The question of why do these men even bother to get married or have relationships with a woman if they just intend to cheat is never satisfactorily answered. Why go through all that and then seem not to care--never answered satisfactorily. Why not just be a single guy, tell women you don't want a relationship and then just have all the sex you want with women who are willing--as this book shows a lot of women are--is never satisfactorily answered, either. The way the stories are written, too, makes me question whether or not they are actually TRUE stories. I guess the impression we're supposed to get is the guys told Baisden these stories, and then he wrote them all up nice and neat as if he's writing a novel. All the stories are written the same, all very descriptive, some sense of humor thrown into many of them, same grammar, etc...which makes me question the stories, especially ones that got so dramatic that they DID seem unreal. It would have been more realistic if he just flat-out quoted the men.

Still, I do believe most of what Baisden has to offer, and I think this book offers a lot of insight to both men and women. I think this book is important to men, despite the feeling they might get of being betrayed, because it opens their eyes to just how evil women really can be and/or how bad these situations can really turn out all because you were only thinking of some sex. So if a man considers cheating or has never done it, the stories will hopefully be enough to make him forget the idea of cheating. What surprises me most is that this book came out 10 years ago and is EXTREMELY relevant today--it seems as if it's even more so today than it might have been back in the 90s. The book basically seems right on target for these days. I would say that, despite its faults, this book is a guide to men AND women that they should keep, refer to and commit to memory.

Interesting, unfortunate at times, but entertaining.......2005-06-13

There are plenty of stories in this book from men who brag, boast, and attempt to justify their behavior, as well as women who tolerate it, and some who take matters into their own hands. This book is all those words I described above and some. As a man, it was funny to read about how some of us told their stories. Some described infidelity as if it was something we're born with, while some tried to put it all on the woman which is totally unfair. It's very entertaining and a book I would recommend it to anyone.

A humorous, but not fully believable insight..........2004-12-29

I've read a variety of Baisden's works and, easily, this is the best of them so far. The behaviors, explanations, and testimonials appear most believable when placed in a southern or middle American setting. From my experience, I'd find it hard to imagine in the Big Apple. As a result, it serves more as an entertainment device than an informative device for me. Some of the passages made me burst out laughing in full hysterics. I've often recommended it to others from that alone.

I couldn't advise a woman to read this to truly learn about a cheating personality, but it could certainly illuminate one to possible traits with the use of intelligent reasoning. More often than not, the answer is obvious. Besides, that's what private investigators are for. Kidding!

Portobello Mushrooms with Bubbling Pesto
PRO/FATS AND VEGGIES -- LEVEL ONE

Serves 4
These mushrooms make a great appetizer or a delicious accompaniment for a summer meal alongside a steak. They work especially well if you are using your outdoor grill, but you can also broil them in the oven.

4 large portobello mushrooms
Olive oil for brushing
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 recipe Basil Pesto (p. 155)
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Trim the stems off the mushrooms. Brush mushrooms with olive oil and season lightly. Cook gill side down over medium coals or in the broiler for 5 minutes.

Turn the mushrooms over and spread a spoonful of pesto over the entire surface. Continue to cook for 10 minutes or until the mushrooms are very tender and the pesto is bubbling. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top of the pesto and return to broiler until cheese is melted and golden.

Dawn's Deviled Eggs
PRO/FATS AND VEGGIES -- LEVEL ONE

Makes 10
My good friend Barry Manilow has a wonderful cook named Dawn. These are her delicious deviled eggs. Her original recipe includes avocado, which makes the filling green. Try it that way for Level Two.

5 hard-boiled eggs, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon minced scallion, white and light green parts
1 large jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
Juice from 1 lime
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
red chili flakes for garnish

Remove the yolks from the whites. Set the whites aside. Mash the yolks in a bowl with a fork. Add the scallion, jalapeño, lime juice, mayonnaise, and salt. Add more mayonnaise to reach desired consistency. Mash with a fork until blended. Using a teaspoon, carefully stuff whites with yolk mixture, mounding the tops.
For extra heat, garnish with red chili flakes.
For Level Two
Add 1 whole mashed avocado to the egg yolk mixture.

Book Description

Knoppix is a portable Linux distribution with a collection of hundreds of programs and utilities--a veritable Swiss Army knife in CD form. This practical and flexible Linux distribution runs on the fly from a single CD with no need to install anything to your hard drive. Knoppix's excellent hardware detection, collection of programs, and ease of use help explain why Knoppix is radically changing the face of Linux. Though Knoppix is the most popular live CD Linux distribution available, until now there have been no books on the topic. A weighty theoretical tome or a book for dummies won't do--the perfect Knoppix book, like Knoppix itself, must be as useful and clever as a Swiss Army knife. Clearly, Knoppix calls for an O'Reilly Hacks book. Knoppix Hacks is a collection of one hundred industrial-strength hacks for new Linux users, power users, and system administers using--or considering using--the Knoppix Live CD. These tips and tools show how to use the enormous amount of software on this CD to troubleshoot, repair, upgrade, disinfect, and generally be productive without Windows. With Knoppix you can:

Test drive a Linux desktop without the need to install Linux
Troubleshoot and repair Linux and Windows systems
Create a thin client network with just one CD
Replace a web server or firewall in an emergency
Perform a security audit on your entire network
Virus scan a Windows computer from the safety of Linux
Customize Knoppix for personal or business use
Easily install the popular Debian GNU/Linux distribution with all of your hardware detected and configured

Knoppix Hacks provides ingenious fixes, clever customizations, and time and resource-saving tips. If you want more than the average Knoppix user, this invaluable book is a must-have.

Book Description

Working as a correspondent for 20/20 and Good Morning America, John Stossel confronted dozens of scam artists: from hacks who worked out of their basements to some of America's most powerful executives and leading politicians. His efforts shut down countless crooks -- both famous and obscure. Then he realized what the real problem was.

In Give Me a Break, Stossel takes on the regulators, lawyers, and politicians who thrive on our hysteria about risk and deceive the public in the name of safety. Drawing on his vast professional experience (as well as some personal ones), Stossel presents an engaging, witty, and thought-provoking argument about the beneficial powers of the free market and free speech.

Ballooning government?
Millionaire welfare queens?
Tort lawyers run amok?
A $330,000 outhouse, paid for with your tax dollars?
John Stossel says, ""Give me a break.""

When he hit the airwaves thirty years ago, Stossel helped create a whole new category of news, dedicated to protecting and informing consumers. As a crusading reporter, he chased snake-oil peddlers, rip-off artists, and corporate thieves, winning the applause of his peers.

But along the way, he noticed that there was something far more troublesome going on: While the networks screamed about the dangers of exploding BIC lighters and coffeepots, worse risks were ignored. And while reporters were teaming up with lawyers and legislators to stick it to big business, they seldom reported the ways the free market made life better.

In Give Me a Break, Stossel explains how ambitious bureaucrats, intellectually lazy reporters, and greedy lawyers make your life worse even as they claim to protect your interests. Taking on such sacred cows as the FDA, the War on Drugs, and scaremongering environmental activists -- and backing up his trademark irreverence with careful reasoning and research -- he shows how the problems that government tries and fails to fix can be solved better by the extraordinary power of the free market.

He traces his journey from cub reporter to 20/20 co-anchor, revealing his battles to get his ideas to the public, his struggle to overcome stuttering, and his eventual realization that, for years, much of his reporting missed the point.

Stossel concludes the book with a provocative blueprint for change: a simple plan in the spirit of the Founding Fathers to ensure that America remains a place ""where free minds -- and free markets -- make good things happen.""
