This book was released on with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not my scheme, not my banker, not my borrowers, not my government contract, but all ours when considering what I did to them all as they all tried to abuse the system and rip people off, as I took it over and trapped them all on it - it was easy - just responding properly, for Joe Public in the detail, broadly and most systematically. Because some do run into burning houses to save others and some do jump all over hold-ups in the act to stop theft and some do hit murderers in the midst to prevent harm. No, Kim, there's only One me. And I clothes-line tackled - where One component spreads out his arms and directly tackles so many of the opponen's team (I aimed to give and have direct testimony on quite a few, in detail - volunterring to serve as bookkeeper for this crew I didn't miss: constantly thinking about how many I could "get at" documentary evidentciarily-wise) - quite a few of them with my ruthlessly simple business-plans and my ruthlessly simple knits in serial numbers on SBLA assets (where anything identifiable would do): they just kept doing the same old thing so I just kept doing my simple same old thing, every single time, and walked them right in thru the front doors of 305 Rene Levesque (CRA Mtl TSO), all packaged up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p53KddneD-k I know I was sneaky. Totally heartless: THEY'RE THIEVES!!! That's what bookkeepers can only try to be when they encounter criminals in the street : be sneaky as hell, since the last Auditing Course I took at McGill, prepared in my era thoroughly by Concordia U (where I met my best profs.) the prof explained that an accountant's obligation is to society at large and not to their clients. In this case I acquired his illicit banker as an early target thus "go upstream" where the financial leakage is coming from - tolerating "it" all to build a documentary case against him, and them all, each against each other. I met a lot of scum-bags who thought they could ply me with their seeming bribes - because the minute you take, you're forver indebted, so buy a lot with it - and their death threats - for which I lost my teeth w/in 2 years after massive breach in confidentiality by CRA investigators/Crown and my blow-up - and I'd be on their side: but they didn't know that I had just spent the previous 5 yrs studying tax law and writing two books on it, for You. And I'm proud to say it was with an eye towards improving our law there too, studying and looking for those pesky loop-holes - which everyone wants to know about - but I never thought twice of actually using. I have a conscience - don't have that killer instinct to make merely money - and unlike quite a few I do pride myself on NOT "earning $5000/hr listening for skips in the Mozart so that I can take advantage of lesser-applied minds" than what I've disciplined mine to be, as falling in love with you. For who you've been too. My senstivity 'walking the rice-paper" started, as I entered the law library learning yoir cloistered rich language. But I reached my pinnacle in 1995, when I delivered "my package" to the CRA/Crown with a co-ordinated divulge: I aimed it to be done - and just did it: call me on it. https://books.google.ca/books?id=crfSEAAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false And no, only the salesman and the cook were not got at: they didn't seem to be doing anything wrong. They walked away wondering what the hell happened..none seeing as full a picture as I did! Your dignity caused me to never develop a guilty conscience in doing it. After all, there's only One you, as "Stupid is what stupid does Jenny." Ok? And I do hope I didn't hurt you Kim: THAT WOULD BE THE LAST THING I EVER WANTED TO DO. But I want this out here like this since You matter to me, from the minute we met, with ALL your kind, freshingly excitment and exoticness - A TOWER of Wisdom. All of "this" is OWED to you, gratuitiously paid, since you've been my beacon: it started with your and my ITA, and it took off after this, but our ITA preped me to take these jokers on. I caught an extorting Al Capone, just like Elliot Ness. The values and personal dignity that I've been amazed with as I first saw in you in 1987 I did see, but not in the same combination, in others, but you're like Coca Cola, you're "The Real Thing", and to You, Kimberly E, thru it all, this is all owed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHO6a2H-pqY ..I once dreamed about a Star and waited for a lioness in a law library... Because You're that One who did develop your brain in life - far harder to be a BComm Honours and who did become a CA who introduced me to Income Tax - giving me that foundational gift in 1987 - while on Her way to pick up her TARGETED law degree, at McGill afterwhich she Did go to NYC to 'practice lawyers' so regardless of whether I was a success, you certainly were in very tasteful World of meaning and stately tradition. So where did Lyndon come from? He came from falling in love with everything he saw in You in 1987, when he had nothing. Your high-demand 'religion' was legal reason, that applies secularly per objective measure - where there's only one truth, in the face of gossipers who even refute when facing it - not some unlearned closed dark clique-focus apparatus, but one that the whole country accepts as applicable. And all I did was emmulate that that I saw in you, by having the years-long discipline to shelter learning THAT, so you understand where published knit serial numbers and perfect ricochets off of dirty bankers came from as it was ME in THAT spot who had the foresight to plot against everything I ENDURED, not in glee, to do it, building up the evident case file as this stupid little thing progressed. From a rampaging extortionist. And went out and worked and applied himself, for others by-and-large, like before, as after. So keep on sail'n like a dreadnought Kim: because as you too know, there'll always be unaccomplished garbage around who ridicule. Who didn't accomplish 1 / 4 as much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCD0fPSsdBA You "led to the sacking of Troy". And in your command of the tasteful superior World of and for stately law (our very codified rules by which we on this continent conduct ourselves and how the most qualified have considered them for us, allowing all of us to be 'explorers of seas unknown') and open-hearted kind practice of being human, it would happen all over again. So how do you like Your books, and Your cases Miss Neufeld? In Your language Kim, where "law [does] apply to other law" and Al Capone did indeed go to a jail for tax evasion, fried before-hand. ...apologetically dragging, in my case, his broken little shit, with his troop, out of our sight and mind for ever and ever: thankful to be alive. Poor bastards: HA! Because just like you've said in 1987 when I was the most attentive you'll ever meet, keeping me 23 yrs old into perpetuity, thru starving libraries and steep hills and tight budgets and my very breath: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfRr9Rmk2bo There were always certain limited things that are so unique in this life, and you projected The Neufeld Standard, and you had me at Hello. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1jIsE9PTJA Ok, North Star? For you Kim, who started it all in 1987, for you being you, like they all are, in your life-path: who made mine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ1KSmwssCw Because life is like a box of chocolates, and I EAT CHOCOLATE PASSIONATELY! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p63pS5Mn7uI I never wanted to hurt'm THAT much, but EVERY attack was an attack ON ME, and now I'm an Iron Pin-Cushion: not much goes in anymore - but I did my Job since It Had to Be Done: I didn't see ANYONE ELSE in Yank Barry's Sewer who would: someone had to spin the tables on that banker. Just a prepared baby-sitter. Who studied to refinement because of You Kim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LerwIYmNFXY There's pretty well been 2 suns in my sky Kim: you're the other One. You led me to see all those other smaller stars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oALxLNOhI6I UNLESS DIRTY BANKS AND THEIR BANKERS WHO COLLUDE WITH CRIMINALS IN THE STREET ARE MORE WORTHY TO ACT FOR AND CODDLE THAN BOOKKEEPERS WHO ACT AGAINST THEM FOR CDN LAW ENFORCEMENT. WHAT DO YOU SAY DAN BEAUCHAMP of JUSTICE CDA, lingerer of The Rockburn Pub and Ormstown Boy WHO GOT HIS NAME ON MERELY ONE OF THE CASES THAT SHOULD BE COMING FROM THIS PACKET OF CRIMINAL INTELLIGENCE I PERSONALLY GAVE HIM: WHAT DOES YOUR CHAIR SAY NOW!!? Sorry friend: I did my job, you do yours! I want my wiretap starting at least on March 8th'95 if not shortly after Dec 20th'94 - MY TELEPHONE TIPS GAVE YOU LEGAL PREDICATION - DID YOU DO YOUR JOB!!? Because reporters of others don't win legal wars and everyone knows it: people do with their proof of fact. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kOuljFdYRg

Download or read book Comeback Season written by Cam Perron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, at the age of twelve, Perron bought a set of Topps baseball cards featuring several players from the Negro Leagues. He started writing letters to former Negro League players asking for their autographs and a few words about their careers. The players responded with detailed stories about their glory days on the field, and the racism they faced, including run-ins with the KKK. The letters turned into phone calls, and in these conversations many of the players revealed that they had fallen out of touch with their former teammates. Perron and a small group of fellow researchers organized the first annual Negro League Players Reunion in Birmingham, Alabama in 2010. This is the story of his mission to help many players get pension money that they were owed from Major League Baseball-- and to get a Negro League museum opened in Birmingham, stocked with memorabilia. -- adapted from jacket

Book excerpt: "As Kara, Sue Ellen, Juanita, Lucas and Joel gather on the beach to make plans to go to an amusement park, Lucas plays a compilation tape of songs from the 60s made for him by Christy Bekken, one of "The Crowd" at school. The music on the tape suddenly stops and a distraught Christy is heard speaking angrily to someone. It is obvious that Christy did not know she was being recorded. The tape ends abruptly and the people listening are stunned. Because no one else is heard on the tape, the friends speculate about who Christy could possibly be speaking to, and what has happened. Lucas--a member of the lower social orders at the school and who is fond of Christy--decides to confront her directly. When he does, Christy is evasive and wants Lucas to give her the tape and forget about it. Lucas returns the tape, but after Christy's boyfriend, Bobby, attacks Lucas, he is sure there is something more going on. As Lucas continues to pursue the truth, we learn more and more about the inner lives of each of the characters and what's beneath the images they present to the world."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Mantle written by Tony Castro and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-05-22 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I really do believe I would be way up at the top of everything if I hadn’t been injured. When I was healthy, I really believe I was the best of anyone I ever saw play.—Mickey Mantle, reflecting on his career Mickey Mantle is one of baseball’s all-time greats. Playing for the New York Yankees for his entire professional career, Mantle was named to the All-Star team for 11 consecutive seasons, won three MVP awards, and was a seven-time World Series champion. He quickly became an icon who achieved hero status even while playing through injuries for most of his career. In Mantle: The Best There Ever Was, Tony Castro makes the impassioned argument that Mickey Mantle truly was the greatest ballplayer of all time. Acclaimed by the New York Times as the definitive biographer of baseball’s fabled number 7, Castro shares many of his personal conversations with Mantle, demystifying the legend and revealing intimate, never-before-published details from Mantle’s personal life. In addition, Castro offers illuminating new insights into Mantle’s extraordinary career, including the head-turning conclusion based on the evolution of analytics that the beloved Yankee switch-hitting slugger may ultimately win acclaim as having fulfilled the weighty expectation once placed on him: being even greater than Babe Ruth. Drawing from hundreds of interviews with ex-teammates, friends, and family, Castro masterfully blends Mantle’s public and private selves to present a fully rounded portrait of this complex, misunderstood national hero.
