It is easy to forget how recently the concept of informal learning has developed. We have always acknowledged the importance of parents and early experience, and we have long recognized that the best "school" is a student and teacher on opposite ends of a log.

The $12 Million Stuffed Shark delves into the economics and psychology of the contemporary art world - artists, dealers, auction houses, and wealthy collectors. If it's true - as so often said - that 85 percent of new contemporary art is bad, why were record prices achieved at auction for works by 131 contemporary artists in 2006 alone, with astonishing new heights reached in 2007? The $12 Million Stuffed Shark explores money, lust, and the self-aggrandizement of possession in an attempt to determine what makes a particular work of art valuable while others are ignored. In the style of the bestselling Freakonomics, Thompson uses economic concepts to explain the unique practices employed, to great success, in the international contemporary art market. He discusses branding and marketing and how various strategies are tailored to a wealthy clientele, driving a "must-have" culture. Drawing on exclusive interviews with both past and present executives of auction houses and art dealerships, artists, and the buyers who move the market, Thompson launches the reader on a surprising journey of discovery.

Upon the death of Theodore Bilbo in 1947, John Cornelius Stennis won a special election to fill Bilbo s U.S. Senate vacancy. In 1952, he won the general election and served in the senate for 41 years. Much of our state s progress is due to Stennis devotion to those who struggled to make a living he dedicated his entire working life to helping others. Despite his allegiance to Mississippians, his vision also encompassed both the nation and the world. Among his colleagues, Stennis was known as Mr. Integrity. He wrote the first Senate ethics code and cautioned unilateral entrance into the Vietnam Conflict. Stennis was also labeled the Father of America s modern navy. The supercarrier USS John C. Stennis was named in his honor. Stennis wanted his state and country to prosper and he believed in government of, by, and for the people. Dr. Donald Zacharias, President Emeritus of Mississippi State University, said of Stennis, We see qualities in your life that we want in our own lives. Life is better for each of us for what you have done.
