    John Wiley & Sons, Inc., also referred to as Wiley (NYSE: JW.A), is a global publishing company that specializes in academic publishing and markets its products to professionals and consumers, students and instructors in higher education, and researchers and practitioners in scientific, technical, medical, and scholarly fields. The company produces books, journals, and encyclopedias, in print and electronically, as well as online products and services, training materials, and educational materials for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education students.

    Founded in 1807, Wiley is also known for publishing For Dummies. As of 2012, the company had 5,100 employees and a revenue of $1.8 billion.

    History

    Wiley was established in 1807 when Charles Wiley opened a print shop in Manhattan. The company was the publisher of such 19th century American literary figures as James Fenimore Cooper, Washington Irving, Herman Melville, and Edgar Allan Poe, as well as of legal, religious, and other non-fiction titles. Wiley later shifted its focus to scientific, technical, and engineering subject areas, abandoning its literary interests.

    Wiley Miller

    David Wiley Miller (born April 15, 1951, Burbank, California), an American cartoonist whose work is characterized by wry wit and trenchant social satire, is best known for his comic strip Non Sequitur, which he signs Wiley. Non Sequitur is the only cartoon to win National Cartoonists Society Divisional Awards in both the comic strip and comic panel categories, and Miller is the only cartoonist to win an NCS Divisional Award in his first year of syndication.

    Editorial cartoons

    A California native, Wiley studied art at Virginia Commonwealth University and worked for several Hollywood educational film studios before relocating to North Carolina in 1976 to work as an editorial cartoonist and staff artist for the Greensboro News & Record. Fenton (1982) was his first syndicated strip. In 1985, he was hired as an editorial cartoonist at the San Francisco Examiner.

    Comic strips

    In 1991, Wiley launched his popular Non Sequitur strip, eventually syndicated to 700 newspapers. In 1994, Miller pioneered the use of process color in comic strips, and developed a format in 1995 that allows one cartoon to be used in two different ways for both panel dimensions and strip dimensions.

    Chacun pense а soi

    by: Ortal

    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien. Regardons autour de nous
    On vit dans un monde de fous
    Chacun cherche sa gloire,
    Chacun cherche l'espoir.
    On oublie ce qui nous entoure
    Ceux qui nous donnent de l'Amour
    On chasse de notre memoire
    Ce qui nous empeche d'y croire.
    On laisse au bord du chemin.
    Les chagrins sans lendemain,
    On poursuit chacun sa route.
    On laisse au bord de la route
    Chacun tous ses petits doutes,
    On poursuit son chemin. Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Tenir au creux de ses mains
    Les clefs de notre destin,
    Mener a la victoire
    Tous nos reves d'un soir.
    Et on court apres le temps
    On passe a cote des gens,
    On court apres l'argent,
    On se cache, on se ment.
    Meme si la solitude
    Est notre seule attitude,
    On garde en chacun de nous
    L'Amour de ceux qui nous aime,
    Meme si on a de la peine,
    On se retrouvera.
    Meme si la realite
    N'est pas notre verite,
    On continue a y croire
    A se battre pour notre histoire.
    Meme si le prix a payer
    Est plus cher a chaque fois,
    On continue a y croire
    Des espoirs pour nos espoirs.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.
    Chacun pense a soi
    Comme si il n'y avait que ca,
    Chacun mene a bien
    Que ce qu'il veut bien.

    "EVERYONE THINKS ABOUT THEMSELVES"
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Just what they really want to do
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Only what they really want to do
    Let's look around us
    We live in a crazy world
    Everyone seeks some glory,
    Everyone seeks some hope
    We forget all the things around us
    Those who give us love.
    We dismiss from our memory
    Everything that stops us believing.
    We leave by the edge of the path
    The short-lived sorrows.
    Everyone, follow the road
    and leave by its edge
    every last doubt
    And carry on walking.
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Just what they really want to do
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Only what they really want to do
    Holding in our hands
    The keys of our destiny
    Leading to victory
    Our one night's dreams.
    And we run after time,
    We turn away from people,
    We run after money,
    We hide and lie to each other
    Even though loneliness
    Is our unique attitude,
    We keep to ourselves
    The love of those who love us,
    Even though we feel upset,
    We will meet up again.
    Even if reality
    Is not our truth,
    We keep on believing,
    And fight for our history.
    Though the price to pay
    Is more expensive each time,
    We keep on believing
    A few hopes for our new hopes.
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Just what they really want to do
    Everyone thinks about themselves
    As if they were the only ones,
    Everyone sees it through
    Only what they really want to do
