Sinopsis

"The Gift of the Magi" is a short story by O. Henry first published in 1905. The story tells of a young husband and wife and how they deal with the challenge of buying secret Christmas gifts for each other with very little money. The main idea of "The Gift of the Magi" is that the value of a gift is in the giver, rather than the gift itself.  Jim and Della, out of their love for each other, purchased a gift that required them to sacrifice something that was precious to them.

    S as in Zebatinsky - The Spy Who...

    S as in Zebatinsky by Isaac Asimov -  A mysterious name keeps surfacing in top-secret reports—Zebatinsky—yet no one knows who he is or why he matters. 
    Marshall Zebatinsky felt foolish. He felt as though there were eyes staring through the grimy storefront glass and across the scarred wooden partition; eyes watching him. He felt no confidence in the old clothes he had resurrected or the turned-down brim of a hat he never otherwise wore or the glasses he had left in their case.  
    He felt foolish and it made the lines in his forehead deeрer and his young-old face a little paler.  
    He would never be able to explain to anyone why a nuclear physicist such as himself should visit a numerologist. (Never, he thought. Never.) Hell, he could not еxplain it to himself except that he had let his wife talk him into it.  
    The numerologist sat behind an old desk that must have been second-hand when bought. No desk could get that old with only one owner. The same might almost be said of his clothes. He was little and dark and peered at Zebatinsky with little dark eyes that were brightly alive.  
    He said, "I have never had a physicist for a client before, Dr. Zebatinsky."  
    Zebatinsky flushed at once. "You understand this is confidential."  
    The numerologist smiled so that wrinkles creased about the corners of his mouth and the skin around his chin stretched. "All my dealings are confidential."  
    Zebatinsky said, "I think I ought to tell you one thing. I don't believe in numerology and I don't expect to begin believing in it. If that makes a difference, say so now."  
    "But why are you here, then?" " 
    My wife thinks you may have something, whatever it is. I promised her and I am here."

    Jake has to attend a wedding out of town.  No one has been designated to take over as leader of the Animorphs.  But when Tobias tells the others that he's found the place where Visser Three currently feeds, there is a unanimous agreement on going after him.  The kids aquire cheetah morphs to run the visser down.   Unfortunately, there's a new player on the scene:  an inspector sent by the Council of Thirteen to check on Visser Three's eternal problems.  The inspector has a Garatron host body.  Garatrons are the newest hosts: like Andalites, but with shocking speed---and no morphing technology.  this Garatron-Controller outruns the Animorphs and Ax in their cheetah morphs, saving Visser Three.  The kids soon realize this inspector may provide a way to do away with  Visser Three.  If  they can convince the inspector that the visser is totally incompetent, totally unable to stop the "Andalite bandits,"  maybe the Visser will be recalled.  Now a dispute breaks out:  Who will run the mission in Jake's absence?  Marco and Rachel are the main aspirants.  Cassie takes herself out.  Tobias and Ax bow out.  In the end, Marco lets Rachel take control.  Rachel stages a series of reckless Rachel raids to harass known Controllers, with the goal of making the Visser seem impotent.  But Rachel's recklessness and impatience betray her when her failure to plan results in Cassie being captured and taken to the Yeerk pool.   Rachel's confidence collapses.  She learns about the flip side of leadership, the difficult choices Jake makes all the time.  The kids rescue Cassie with a spectacular assault on the Yeerk pool.  Rachel has succeeded, but her interest in leading is considerably diminished.
