The Forty-Deuce
In the 1970s and 80s New York was internationally renowned for its seedy underbelly; the world capital of leisure, luxury, and sin. And the epicenter of New York vice, hands down, was 42nd Street-Times Square-a.k.a. the Forty-Deuce. On any given night on the Forty-Deuce you could take in the latest blockbuster, B-movie, or skin flick; cop drugs or cop a feel. A playground for the perverse, as well as a destination for thrill-seekers and partiers from every borough of New York City and beyond, Times Square was the electric heart of the city that refused to sleep. The Forty-Deuce: The Times Square Photographs of Bill Butterworth, 1983-1984 is a series of photographs capturing a gritty, glamoro...

Balancing Work and Life
Life is more like a marathon than a sprint. Here’s how to stay well conditioned. Bill Butterworth will make you laugh–and learn while you’re doing it! In the opening chapter of this powerful little book, Bill shares with you how, while running his rotund body in a nightmarish 440-yard dash, he learned a great lesson: Life is much more like a marathon than a sprint. The attitudes and actions that result in steady success over the long haul are what make for long-term satisfaction and achievement. To experience this for yourself, you need to understand how to deal with life’s inevitable challenges: ·The “Hazies”–losing sight of long-term goals ·The “Lazies”–lacking the self-discipline to bring life back into focus ·The “Crazies”–allowing life to run out of control Each of these can be conquered by three “clarifying triangles:” setting clear priorities, learning the discipline of endurance, and reaching the finish line through skillful pacing. It all adds up to a succinct and inspiring guide to balancing excellence at work with fulfillment in all of life. Also look for the On-the-Fly-Guide to Building Successful Teams!
Survival!
An academic is concerned with pushing knowledge to the limit of knowing. A technologist is concerned with pushing knowledge to the limit of doing." This book does not set out to be a substitute for a PhD degree. It is about a combination of science and technology, and of welding good land management with energy production on the farm and with business development, in order to build what a reasonably sensible, science-based observer can accept as a logical and practicable way of solving some problems and making progress towards widely desired, sustainable gaols. It is acceptable simply because most of it is also a historical record; it has been done; done safely and sustainably from an enviro...
Everyday Influence
If you are breathing, you've got influence. Well-known speaker and author Bill Butterworth uses humorous, honest, and heart-warming stories of influencers in his own life to show how everyday words and actions can have a deep and lasting impact on others. He says, "Influence arrives in the simplest of ways." *A typewriter and a dad's comment form a young boy's future. *A music teacher uses the power of validation to encourage an awkward fourth grader. *A youth leader's affirmation and involvement changes a life direction. *A struggling young man discovers his niche based on the way God wired him. *A discouraged father finds it's never too late to influence his family. Who is your life influencing? We're all influencing, one way or another. Take time to interact, learn the power of words, focus on everyday actions and interactions to help you become a person of influence.
New Life After Divorce
It’s the End of Your Marriage–Not Your Life. Few experiences bring more pain than divorce. Like the death of a loved one, divorce plunges us into grief and loneliness, heartache and depression.

Yet it also can trigger tremendous growth in several key areas, including your relationships, the way you see yourself, and how you live out your faith. No one is calling divorce a blessing. But it is something that you will live through and that can help to powerfully transform you into the person God has created you to be. Whether you are in the earliest stages of divorce, are newly single again, are processing an earlier divorce, or know someone whose marriage is ending, New Life After Divorce offers encouragement and hope that this new life will be a good life–and the promise that healing, strength, purpose, and joy are around the corner.
