This little Collection of Poems and Songs represents 50 years of the writer's work and "reflective style of living" from age 15 to 65, all but one previously unpublished. The partial product of a small-town childhood and a Midwest education during the post-war 40's, the politically apathetic but musically revolutionary Rock-n-Roll 50's, and the Socially Revolutionary 60's, with influences as diverse as Mother Goose, Ayn Rand, Buddy Holly, Robert Heinlein, A.A. Milne, Woody Guthrie, Robert Frost, Thoreau, Poe, Bob Dylan, Lewis Carroll, and Walt Kelly's "POGO", among others, known or not, this work covers a wide range of styles from "doggerel" to blank verse to lullabies, and a range of subjects and ideas from observations of nature and people to love-poems, homages, satirical parodies, and meditations on life and death and beyond. Herein you may find silliness and satire, grief and grievances, political commentary, or retrospectives of crossed paths with girls, animals, lakes and mountains, presidents, children, friends and strangers, even ants--not all of them, perhaps, what they first seem to appear, but all special and memorable enough to stand out, or as they do here, stand alone. By the author's own admission, "Certainly there have been ideas, moments, even people missed or forgotten along the way and no doubt much remains to be noted and commented on, but the places I go and the people I 'meet' just continue to 'sing' to me. Many "grab" me immediately, while some "sneak up on me" and surprise me later." Will Rogers was famous for saying, "I never met a man I didn't like!" For Paul, the "operative word" there is "MET": that is: "Discovered"--or came to know and understand--or "saw through" to the "Song" within. "That", he says, "Is how people "sing" to Me--every time I stop to listen--and to Care--as if each were truly unique and each one genuinely mattered!." Meanwhile, "the beat goes on" and the Music never stops. And so, He says, " I'll just keep listening and learning, and sharing --- and trying to "keep in tune" --- perhaps the best is yet to come! ---- One can Always Hope ! "

Cost cutting is an issue for every manager and executive at every level in every company, large or small, public or private sector. Junior managers who are proactively tight on cost are learning good habits for the future, ones that will bring them recognition and advance their climb up the organizational chart. The HR department is now staffed with tough cost managers dealing with the most difficult cost category, people. Marketing departments now focus on how to get higher returns from less spend. Cut Costs Not Corners has a coherent and structured approach to cost cutting as a permanent activity, combined with guidance on the practical steps to take and powerful international case studies. It covers strategic and tactical cost cutting options such as analysing space needs, buying technology for less, selling off redundant assets, reducing credit risk, reviewing distribution methods, sourcing new suppliers or consolidating existing ones, advertising for less, changing the route to market, travel and utility savings, minimising finance and tax costs, crisis measures - freezing recruitment, delaying pay rises, sell and lease back assets - keeping budgets rolling and using a daily cash flow model.

A Practical Guide to Cost Engineering aims to show you how to work as a cost engineer out in the real world. Written by an experienced cost engineer and training program developer, this book introduces the practical side of cost management (cost estimation, cost reduction, and cost control) through real cases and realistic examples from a diverse range of engineering-based projects. With examples from nuclear, oil and gas, and renewable energy sectors, the book introduces and demonstrates the activities of the cost engineer throughout a project life cycle. The content is divided into logical sections covering basic concepts, cost estimation, cost control, economic feasibility, sustainability, and more, and the chapters are packed full of features such as definitions, formulas, exercises, and examples. The focus is on providing a practical approach where the reader can first understand a concept and then apply it using an Excel tool developed by the author which allows the reader to simulate different scenarios and results. The simple approach focusing on essential information backed up by practical scenarios presented in this book allows cost engineers and related professionals to execute and understand their activities, develop their professional skills, and even develop in-house training programs. A Practical Guide to Cost Engineering is accompanied by online resources, accessible via the Routledge Resource Centre wesbite.
