These groups who offer shelter, food, clothing and support to the many families and individuals in our region are experiencing increased need for their services this year.    

 

The Community Kitchen requests volunteers for their special holiday meal distribution on December 20th and 21st.  People can volunteer and then come directly to the candlelight vigil, which follows the meal distribution.

Cheshire County Democrats Book Club

We had an excellent discussion about Afghanistan tonight ( The Punishment of Virtue: Inside Afghanistan After the Taliban by Sarah Chayes) and then rushed home to watch the President's speech. If you haven't read this book, we highly recommend it. It's a fascinating look at Afghanistan.



For January, we will be reading Too Big to Fail: The Inside Story of How Wall Street and Washington Fought to Save the Financial System---and Themselves, by Andrew Ross Sorkin. We will meet on Tuesday night, January 12, 6:30 PM in the Foodcourt at Colony Mill Marketplace. I hope you can join us.



We are always looking for good books to read, so if you have a recommendation, please let me know.



Linda Cates



Reviews of Too Big To Fail

"Andrew Ross Sorkin pens what may be the definitive history of the banking crisis."

-The Atlantic Monthly



"Andrew Ross Sorkin has written a fascinating, scene-by-scene saga of the eyeless trying to march the clueless through Great Depression II."

-Tom Wolfe



"...Sorkin has succeeded in writing the book of the crisis, with amazing levels of detail and access."

-Reuters



"Sorkin can write. His storytelling makes "Liar's Poker" look like a children's book."

-SNL Financial







Product Description

A real-life thriller about the most tumultuous period in America’s financial history by an acclaimed New York Times Reporter



Andrew Ross Sorkin delivers the first true behind-the-scenes, moment-by-moment account of how the greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression developed into a global tsunami. From inside the corner office at Lehman Brothers to secret meetings in South Korea, and the corridors of Washington, Too Big to Fail is the definitive story of the most powerful men and women in finance and politics grappling with success and failure, ego and greed, and, ultimately, the fate of the world’s economy.



“We’ve got to get some foam down on the runway!” a sleepless Timothy Geithner, the then-president of the Federal Reserve of New York, would tell Henry M. Paulson, the Treasury secretary, about the catastrophic crash the world’s financial system would experience.



Through unprecedented access to the players involved, Too Big to Fail re-creates all the drama and turmoil, revealing never disclosed details and elucidating how decisions made on Wall Street over the past decade sowed the seeds of the debacle. This true story is not just a look at banks that were “too big to fail,” it is a real-life thriller with a cast of bold-faced names who themselves thought they were too big to fail.

Cheshire County Democrats Book Club

Hello Everyone, For October, we are reading $20.00 Per Gallon: How the Inevitable Rise in the Price of Gasoline Will Change Our Lives for the Better, by Christopher Steiner. We will meet on Wednesday evening, October 28th, 6:30 PM at the Food Court at Colony Mill Marketplace. I hope to see you then. Linda Cates From Publishers WeeklyStarred Review. According to Steiner, senior staff reporter at Forbes magazine, surging fuel prices will transform Americans' daily lives almost beyond recognition. With traditional energy sources disappearing and global demand soaring, the U.S. will confront gas prices rocketing to $6, $8, $14 and beyond—prices that will compel sweeping changes in everything from urban planning to food production. He reveals the consequences of each incremental hike in gas prices: at $8 per gallon, air travel will essentially vanish; at $14 a gallon, Wal-Mart stores will become empty “ghost boxes”; when gas hits $16 a gallon, sushi will become an extravagance only for the extremely wealthy. While many changes will come at tremendous social and economic cost, Steiner envisions a better future, where human ingenuity will spur greater efficiency and less waste. Although it's unlikely all the author's predictions will come true—he goes so far as to forecast the order in which airlines will go out of business—the surprising snapshots of the future (where rising gas prices might revitalize Detroit) make for vivid and compelling reading.
