Fire Sale

In the 12th V. I. Warshawksi mystery, the private detective returns to her old South Chicago neighborhood, a visit littered with unpleasant memories, plus present-day sabotage, murder, and disappearing teenagers. After her former high-school basketball coach becomes ill with cancer, V. I. agrees to volunteer-coach the girls` team. An attempt to drum up corporate support for the team from local high-school alum Buffalo Bill Bysen, the elderly CEO of the By-Smart big-box discount store, proves a dismal failure; ironically, the Bysen family ends up appealing to V. I. instead when Bysen`s great-grandson Billy and one of the basketball team members run off together.

Bowling for Columbine (DVD)

Filmmaker and leftist activist Michael Moore asks some serious questions as he probes the depths of America's trigger-happy gun culture in the insightful and amusing documentary, BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE. Guns in America are used to kill an average of more than 11,000 people per year. This death toll is obscenely out of balance with other first world countries, which generally average a total in double digits. Experts and analysts have pointed to America's bloody history as a reason, but how does that explain the lower murder rate in Germany? Violent entertainment has also been fingered, but how does this account for staggeringly low numbers in Japan, home of the most violent entertainment video games on the market.
Moore's trademark comedic tone is razor-sharp as his quest leads him everywhere from Littleton Colorado's Columbine High School to the home of NRA President Charlton Heston. Moore, oddly enough a lifetime NRA member, makes his main target the news media, but also fires... Bowling for Columbine (DVD)

it does affects the American economy. Acknowledging that the wildly successful and wildly popular company employs a huge number of Americans and is a source of goods at prices affordable for the average family, Fishman points out that the giant exercises power in ways never seen before, and on a scale that may be unsettling. For example, companies that want their products sold in Wal-Mart must set a price acceptable to Wal-Mart. Fishman asks whether this puts pressure on the manufacturers to cut costs, whether by sacrificing quality control or safety, or by outsourcing work abroad. He addresses the issue of whether Wal-Mart hurts local economies by setting low wages and by draining business away from local stores. Furthermore, he explores the question of whether Wal-Mart exerts undue influence on local governments that need a revenue... The Wal-mart Effect
