Download or read book The Ice Man written by Philip Carlo and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Carlo's The Ice Man spent over six weeks on the New York Times Bestseller List. Top Mob Hitman. Devoted Family Man. Doting Father. For thirty years, Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski led a shocking double life, becoming the most notorious professional assassin in American history while happily hosting neighborhood barbecues in suburban New Jersey. Richard Kuklinski was Sammy the Bull Gravano's partner in the killing of Paul Castellano, then head of the Gambino crime family, at Sparks Steakhouse. Mob boss John Gotti hired him to torture and kill the neighbor who accidentally ran over his child. For an additional price, Kuklinski would make his victims suffer; he conducted this sadistic business with coldhearted intensity and shocking efficiency, never disappointing his customers. By his own estimate, he killed over two hundred men, taking enormous pride in his variety and ferocity of technique. This trail of murder lasted over thirty years and took Kuklinski all over America and to the far corners of the earth, Brazil, Africa, and Europe. Along the way, he married, had three children, and put them through Catholic school. His daughter's medical condition meant regular stays in children's hospitals, where Kuklinski was remembered, not as a gangster, but as an affectionate father, extremely kind to children. Each Christmas found the Kuklinski home festooned in colorful lights; each summer was a succession of block parties. His family never suspected a thing. Richard Kuklinski is now the subject of the major motion picture titled "The Iceman"(2013), starring James Franco, Winona Ryder, Ray Liotta, and Chris Evans.
Download or read book New Directions in Judicial Politics written by Kevin T. McGuire and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its often vague legal concepts and institutions that operate according to unfamiliar procedures, judicial decision-making is, in many respects, a highly enigmatic process. New Directions in Judicial Politics seeks to demystify the courts, offering readers the insights of empirical research to address questions that are of genuine interest to students. In addition to presenting a set of conclusions about the way in which courts operate, this book also models the craft of political research, illustrating how one can account for a variety of factors that might affect the courts and how they operate. The renowned scholars and teachers in this volume invite critical thinking, not only about the substance of law and courts in America, but also about the ways in which we study judicial politics.

Download or read book Licensing Intellectual Property in the Information Age written by Kenneth L. Port and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 888 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition to adding Jay Dratler, one of America's leading authorities on licensing intellectual property, and Barbara Wrigley, a practitioner with many years experience in the field, to the list of co-authors, the Second Edition of Licensing Intellectual Property in the Information Age (formerly Licensing Intellectual Property in the Digital Age) has been largely redone. Keeping the same basic structure, each chapter has been updated with the most current developments in licensing law. Chapter 2 now works as a much more efficient introduction to intellectual property. Additionally, with the inclusion of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act in Chapter 8 and an entirely new chapter on Biotechnology, the book is now the most up-to-date and authoritative textbook available. The book emphasizes application in actual situations, with chapters designed to simulate the work flow a lawyer is likely to face in the negotiation, formation, and enforcement of an intellectual property license. The Problem Supplement is a unique addition to this book (see the link below). It contains two types of exercises. The first is a continuous series of problems based on factual scenarios involving a fictitious sports car manufacturer, Contair Corp. These exercises are called "Problems." They are numbered consecutively and keyed to the chapter of the casebook for which they should be assigned. A second set of exercises is entirely separate and does not involve the ongoing Contair hypothetical. These are called "Exercises" and are keyed to the chapter of the casebook to which they are relevant. Additional exercises, such as those involving the distinctiveness of trademarks, are included in Chapter 2 of the Casebook (Overview of Intellectual Property Law), but are not included in the supplement, because they are review exercises and are unlikely to change.
