If you haven't seen the video yet, you need to see it here.. It's awesome. A senior at a New York high school is the basketball team manager. He's also autistic. For the last game of the year, the coach lets him suit up. The video shows what happened.

Erwin Raphael McManus: Seizing Your Divine Moment: Dare to Live a Life of Adventure
Run, don't walk, or click your way to get this book. (*****)Lemony Snicket: The Ersatz Elevator (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 6)
I've read the previous 5 books and this one. They're not earth-shatteringly inspiring, but they're an entertaining read. Great for pre-teens and upper elementaries (and graphic designers with a love for books that have "flair." The LS series definitely has that. I even love how the books feel in your hand... Weird. And unfortunate. (***)Christopher Paolini: Eldest (Inheritance, Book 2)
Utterly fantastic. Paolini contributes to modern fantasy epic-lore in a dynamic way. Eldest is an able follow-up to Eragon! (*****)Hugh Hewitt: In, But Not Of: A Guide to Christian Ambition
This overlooked little book will be one of my most-recommended books for collegians and young adults. Chock-full of practical, nitty-gritty and realistic counsel, it's a primer for those seeking to be more influential. (*****)Graham Phillips: The Templars and the Ark of the Covenant: The Discovery of the Treasure of Solomon
Don't waste your time. Not only does he involved one of the singers from Air Supply in his "research," but he mangles biblical historicity and concludes that the Ark must be a geoplasmic transmitter... Looney tunes. I'm embarrassed to say that I've read it. (*)Robert Cornuke: Relic Quest (Legend Chaser)
Highly entertaining read. Good complement to The Sign and the Seal. His conclusion matches that of Hancock, but with the perspective of a Christian rather than a secularist. (***)Graham Hancock: Sign and the Seal: The Quest for the Lost Ark of the Covenant
A fascinating read with amazing conclusions. While he makes some down-right boneheaded presumptions at times, it does not detract from his overall thesis. (****)Gordon MacKenzie: Orbiting the Giant Hairball: A Corporate Fool's Guide to Surviving with Grace
Visually, this extremely creative little book captured my attention. Written by a former creative director at Hallmark, it's sure to provoke a smile, as well as challenge leaders to think outside the "hairball." Thanks to Lindy for getting me a copy when she was at New Hope, New York.. (***)
