The Mata Book: A Book for Serious Programmers and Those Who Want to Be is the book that Stata programmers have been waiting for. Mata is a serious programming language for developing small- and large-scale projects and for adding features to Stata. What makes Mata serious is that it provides structures, classes, and pointers along with matrix capabilities. The book is serious in that it covers those advanced features, and teaches them. The reader is assumed to have programming experience, but only some programming experience. That experience could be with Stata's ado language, or with Python, Java, C++, Fortran, or other languages like them. As the book says, "being serious is a matter of attitude, not current skill level or knowledge". The author of the book is William Gould, who is also the designer and original programmer of Mata, of Stata, and who also happens to be the president of StataCorp.

Even a small book, because boredom can be very big. You can read a book while you walk, but you have to be careful not to bump into things.
In poet Don Edwards's third collection, The Third Book, he uses mainly free verse with exceptions, including sonnets and rhyming stanzas. These are his life views realized in poetry. Every word recalls his outlook and how to approach the world around us. Early on, Edwards saw life as an opportunity to create his own memories and destiny. He sees no problem with loneliness, as life alone is better than no life at all, especially if we live to the fullest. However, there are boundaries. As much as we hope to live in complete freedom, we are often hindered by what we are allowed and directed to do. Still, we must dance on. Your destiny is yours to live, so make the best of it.

"Cassel Sharpe comes from a family of curse workers, people who have the power to change emotions, memories, and luck with the slightest touch of their hands. And since curse work is illegal, they're also all criminals. Many become mobsters and con artists, but not Cassel. He doesn't have magic, so he's an outsider, the straight kid in a crooked family--except for the small detail that he killed his best friend, Lila, three years ago. Cassel has carefully built up a facade of normalcy, blending into the crowd. But his facade starts to crumble when he finds himself sleepwalking, propelled into the night by terrifying dreams about a white cat that wants to tell him something.
