The Unforced Error $17.99 A guide to help managers prepare for whatever comes over the net In tennis, the player with the fewest unforced errors usually wins. The same is true in business- all too often, the mistakes that sabotage a career are completely avoidable, if you can anticipate them early enough. Bestselling management writer Jeffrey Krames adopts the metaphor of tennis to show how to spot and sidestep the types of faults that do the most damage. He shows how businesspeople can develop and practice good habits so they'll be ready for an unusually fast serve or wicked backhand. Drawing on stories about famous CEOs like Jack Welch, Robert Goizueta, and Lou Gerstner, Krames shows how to avoid some of the biggest "career killers." His advice includes: . Never say, "The ball was out by a mile"; face reality at all times. . Choose your doubles partner carefully; bad people decisions (hiring, firing, promoting) can be fatal. . Keep practicing your best shot; enhancing your strengths is more effective than trying to fix your weaknesses. |

Fatal Error $7.99 “Repairman Jack is one of my favorite characters--I'm full of happy anticipation every time I hold a new RJ novel in my hands.” --Charlaine Harris, creator of True Blood The End of the World is at hand! Munir Habib's life has become a nightmare. His tormentor has warned Munir not to report the kidnapping of his family, or else they will pay a terrible price. A friend realizes something is terribly wrong and tells Munir he doesn't have to go to the cops. There's a guy who fixes situations like this-Repairman Jack. Jack is backed into helping Munir despite his ongoing involvement in the cosmic shadow war between the Ally and the Otherness. Or perhaps because of it. He's chafing at being forced into the defensive role of protecting the Lady, the physical embodiment of the consciousness of the planet Earth. Meanwhile, the Septimus Order and the Kickers are seemingly working in concert on a plot to extinguish the Lady and open the way for the Otherness to take over our reality. To top it all off, Dawn Pickering finally goes into labor and delivers a baby she only glimpses as it's whisked away, and is terrified by what she sees. Later she's told the baby died, but she doesn't believe it. Neither does Weezy. Neither does Jack. All these interlocking plots mean doom for humanity. But Jack never gives up or gives in. |

tennis question - what's the difference between a forced error and an unforced error?
i think the more interesting subject would be comparing forced errors to winners. as one of the answerers stated they are the same, i could not agree. the term "error" really makes the difference here.
here's my opinion:
- (your) unforced error = you receive simple ball and can hit a return but the return is out of play;
- (your) forced error = you receive difficult ball and can hit a return but the return is out of play;
- (your opponent's) winner = you receive difficult ball and cannot hit a return (i.e., you cannot even reach the ball).
hope this helps
