Praise for The Day Trader
" A legendary S& P floor trader has written a powerful, brutally honest chronicle of his determined rise to the top of his profession. Touching and insightful, this riveting account is one of the best trading memoirs ever." NELSON FREEBURG, PUBLISHER, FORMULA RESEARCH
" The Day Trader provides a rare look into the events that shaped the extraordinary character of one of the most unique people to ever put on a trading jacket . . . it comes as n
surprise that Borsellino places himself at the center of the maelstrom surrounding electronic trading versus open outcry and provides a truly balanced, intelligent, and unemotional view of the momentous transformation occurring in the financial markets. It is imperative that anyone involved in trading the markets either traditionally or electronically read this story and benefit from the insights of one of the great traders of our lifetime." MARIO ALBERICO, FORME
SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, ELECTRONIC TRADING, CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE
" The Day Trader is must reading for anyone in the market. Lewis Borsellino is an Italian American hero who climbed the mountain with guts and honor. The neighborhood kid will always remember where he came from.

And her hot flashes are four-alarmers. The only thing that could make being flat-broke and fifty any worse is having to crawl home to her parents' house in Mimosa Branch, Georgia...which is exactly where she's headed.
Lin's barely prepared for the loony bin that greets her, from her controlling, eighty-year-old mother and shockingly blunt father to her long-suffering Aunt Glory and her deranged Uncle Bedford who is convinced a cannibal lives under the furniture. Nor is she ready for the instant love-hate attraction she feels for her handsome new next-door neighbor. Trying to navigate her way through the second act of her life with nothing more than a prepaid calling card, a broken heart, and plenty of Prozac, Lin's about to discover that it's...

Footloose (Widescreen, Special Collector's Edition)
Kevin Bacon ("Hollow Man", "A Few Good Men") leapt to stardom in this stand-up-and-cheer film that bursts with hit songs and dance. Ren McCormick (Bacon) is a big-city kid looking for some fun.
But, after Ren moves to the sleepy Midwest, he finds himself in the town that fun forgot! When Ren hears that the town's uptight minister (John Lithgow) has placed a ban on dancing, he decides to take a stand. With his best friend (Chris Penn) and the minister's rebellious daughter (Lori Singer), Ren wages a fight for their right to shake, rattle and roll - a campaign that will have the town in an uproar...and the kids dancing in the street. With an infectious soundtrack featuring Deniece Williams' "Let's Hear It For The Boy" and Kenny Loggins' chart-topping title song, "Footloose" is one movie with all the right moves.
