Hot new or classic (children's/young adult) fiction for summer reading list?
Hey, I'm going to have some spare time this summer and would like to come up with a stellar reading list. If there are any old classic must-reads then I would like to hear about those. Any new up-and-comers would be great too. Last summer I enjoyed the Hunger Games. So far on my list for this year I have The Hobbit (want to re-read it before the movie comes out in December).
I'm an adult, but I love younger books. If you could include briefly the premise in brackets, that would be awesome too. Thank you all in advance!! :)

7 AnswersComedy9 years agoCompounding Interest....can't remember the formula?
I took Stats but I completely forget the formula or "easy way" to solve this problem.
Say you deposit $5000 into a 5 year long GIC with a 2.3% interest rate compounded annually. How much money would you have at the end of 5 years?
I was able to solve this the long way (calculating year per year, etc.) but please help if you can remember the easier way.

1 AnswerMovies1 decade agoMovie/Show Memory Help: scene= desert ranch, cult in white, main characters rescue member(s) of cult?
That is pretty much all I remember. It's a ranch or a really remote place with a couple cabins in the desert. These guys are coming to rescue a specific one of them. (Or was it all of them?) They get the girl, they return her to her father(?). Who may have paid the team to go and get her if I remember correctly. This is a scene from the beginning. People pay them to do impossible missions. I think they may be ex-military. Any ideas?
1 AnswerMovies1 decade agoAction/Army Movie Title Help, I can't remember?
There was a guy (or was it a group of guys?) who was in the military and was falsely accused of a military crime. He was proven guilty. We know the verdict within the first half hour, the rest of the movie is what he does about it. There was another officer there (at least I think he was there) who betrayed/accused him. The rest of the movie is either him breaking out of jail, proving his innocence, or going vigilante with some of his army people.
Sorry, my memory is so fuzzy and all these movies are a mishmash in my head. Please just start spewing out random titles that come to mind. I'm hoping I'll stumble upon it. Thank you!
