The Wal-Mart Effect is available as a digital audiobook from Audible.com. The title, provided by Tantor Media and authored by Charles Fishman, has also become an American Consumer News favorite..

The digital audiobook The Wal-Mart Effect, narrated by Alan Sklar, has received an average rating of 4.09 stars on Audible.com. The title has a running length of 10 hour 27 min The audiobook was first released in April 2006 and a sample is available for download.

Audible.com’s description of the audiobook is “Drawing on unprecedented interviews with former Wal-Mart executives and a wealth of staggering data – such as that Americans spend $36 million an hour at Wal-Mart stores – this is an intimate look at a business that is dramatically reshaping the American economy.Wal-Mart is not only the world’s largest company; it is also the largest company in the history of the world. Though 70 percent of Americans now live within a 15-minute drive of a Wal-Mart store, we have not even begun to understand the true power of the company and the many ways it is shaping American life. We know about the lawsuits and the labor protests, but what we don’t know is how profoundly the “Wal-Mart effect” is shaping our lives.Fast Company senior editor Fishman, whose revelatory cover story on Wal-Mart generated the strongest reader response in the history of the magazine, takes us on an unprecedented behind-the-scenes investigative expedition deep inside the many worlds of Wal-Mart. Fishman penetrated the secrecy of Wal-Mart headquarters, interviewing 25 high-level ex-executives. He journeyed into the world of a host of Wal-Mart’s suppliers to uncover how the company strong-arms even the most established brands. And he journeyed to the ports and factories, the fields and forests where Wal-Mart’s power is warping the very structure of the world’s market for goods. Wal-Mart is not just a retailer anymore, Fishman argues. It has become a kind of economic ecosystem, and anyone who wants to understand the forces shaping our world today must understand the company’s hidden reach.”

This audiobook features a brilliant reading of the translation by Bill Wallis; as a bonus, Wallis also masterfully tackles the poem in its original Middle English text. “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” narrates in crystalline verse the strange tale of a green knight who rudely interrupts the Round Table festivities one Yuletide, casting a pall of unease over the company and challenging one of their number to a wager. The virtuous Gawain accepts and then decapitates the intruder with his own axe. Gushing blood, the knight reclaims his head, orders Gawain to seek him out a year hence, and departs. Next Yuletide, Gawain dutifully sets forth. His quest for the Green Knight involves a winter journey, a seduction scene in a dream-like castle, a dire challenge answered, and a drama of enigmatic reward disguised as psychic undoing.”

Embodiments of Emotions in Did Dontzoff’s Passionate Art at Agora Gallery

Posted: 25 Mar 2011 01:22 AM PDT

Chelsea, NY, March 25, 2011 –(PR.com)– Chelsea’s Agora Gallery will feature a French artist, Did Dontzoff, in Degrees of Abstraction. The exhibition is scheduled to run from March 25, 2011 through April 15, 2011 (opening reception: Thursday, March 31, 2011).

About the Artist
Fun, unexpected, original – there are many words that could be used to describe Did Dontzoff’s paintings because this artist’s unique style refuses to fit into ordinary categories. However you characterize them, it is certain that Dontzoff has created a singular body of work with a veritable brand appeal to it. The Russian native crafts wild images of otherworldly figures that appear to zigzag and fold into their surroundings, themselves, and each other. The beings alternate between proud, statuesque poses and others that deflate into a thrilling jumble of lines. They often seem to split apart or reach toward one another so that you cannot tell where one figure ends and another begins. Dontzoff employs a robust, graphic style with areas of flat, vivid color to contrast against the busy, hatched line-work.

A passionate painter, he channels his intense emotional landscape into painting, so these are not merely people but embodiments of emotion. Throughout struggles and triumphs, with each new piece his art has remained a source of inspiration for Dontzoff. “From darkness to light,” he explains, “once again life is tremendous, this is a new start.”

Exhibition Dates: March 25, 2011 – April 15, 2011
Reception: Thursday, March 31, 2011, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Gallery Location: 530 West 25th St, New York City
Gallery Hours: Tues – Sat, 11a.m. – 6 p.m.
Event URL: http://www.agora-gallery.com/artistpage/Did_Dontzoff.aspx

Mango Madness Skin Care Introduces New Facial Scrub

Posted: 25 Mar 2011 01:08 AM PDT

West Palm Beach, FL, March 25, 2011 –(PR.com)– Anti-aging product retailer Mango Madness Skin Care has announced its new honey and amber facial scrub, Oh Honey!™.

The newest exfoliation product combines three special compounds, exfo-amber, honey and Jojoba Seed Oil to provide a gentle, non-irritating face scrub. Exfo-amber is an organic gem that originated 45 million years ago in pre-historic forests of Europe. It is the only vegetable-based precious stone in existence.

“Due to environmental factors and aging, our skin’s cell turnover rate slows down. This causes the skin texture to deteriorate, resulting in increased roughness and a dull appearance,” said Laura Myers, a licensed esthetician at Mango Madness Skin Care. “We solve this problem by using amber-based skin exfoliation that removes some of the outer layer of dead cells. This not only removes impurities and stimulates increased cell renewal, but allows more oxygen to reach the underlying living cells,” she added.

Mango Madness Skin Care offers the new Oh Honey!™ amber and honey face scrub at its new anti-aging skin care products retail store in CityPlace in West Palm Beach, Fla., and online at www.MangoMadnessSkinCare.com.

Mango Madness Skin Care minimizes wasteful packaging and shuns the use of potentially harmful ingredients such as parabens. The company’s facial products contain no fillers or fragrances, which can irritate skin. It performs no animal testing and devotes its resources to highly effective concentrations of active ingredients instead of elaborate advertisements and expensive packaging.

World Water Day Kenyan Photography Exhibition in Santa Monica

Brio Photography presents a look into life in East Africa, from the beauty of the land and people, to the benefit that clean water brings the Maasai tribe of Kenya. Through partnership with WaterNow, a non-profit that drills for people in need, water wells have become the passion of photographer Brio Yiapan and glass artist Audra Moore.

Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) March 25, 2011

Friday, March 25th at 212 Pier in Santa Monica, photographer, Brio Yiapan, and glass artist, Audra Moore, share the story of their experiences in Kenya in pursuit of what the rest of the world knows as Blue Gold. Through photography, music and art, the beauty of Kenya is told. The challenge of providing clean water for people in need, through partnership with WaterNow, is what drives these two women.

Brio is the daughter of a Kenyan father and an American mother. She found her calling when visiting her relatives in Kenya for the first time 10 years ago. She noticed the shortage of clean water, which is the number one killer in the third world. Through trial and error, she has found that partnering with WaterNow is an effective and sustainable way to get clean water to the people.
