Truth-seekers venture from all over the country to his small hometown in California, desperate to know the truth about spouses and business partners, willing to pay the highest price for his gift. But the same whispers that made Michael an underground celebrity reach the ears of someone who has been hunting for him. What should have been just another work night sends Michael running for his life from a madman assassin-a killer who isn't human. Following clues left by his attacker, Michael uncovers a secret society operating higher than any earthly power, one whose orders are obeyed even by the world's most powerful leaders. Anyone asking the wrong questions has already been silenced. But Michael thinks there's another who survived, a name his assassin kept: Callista. She might have the answers... or she might already be dead. Dodging the crosshairs of the world's largest conspiracy, Michael must uncover the truth that humanity is not being told before the hunters find him again.

Download or read book Hail to the CEO written by James Hoopes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-12-30 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unethical and undemocratic cult of business leadership seems to hold sway over the minds of President George W. Bush and many other leaders in our society. According to ethics and leadership expert James Hoopes, this cult claims that leadership is attained and exercised through morality. But by instilling false pride and moral egotism in executives, the leadership cult intensifies the tendency of power to corrupt. For the first time, Hail to the CEO pulls back the curtain on the cult of moral leadership, revealing its dangers while showing readers how to lead with greater integrity and competence. What's more, it will help all citizens better guard their freedom against corrupt, ruinous decisions and the leaders who make them. The notion of leaders as moral exemplars began in business schools and is increasingly influential in the rest of society. Bush, a veteran of corporate life, is our first president to hold the degree Master of Business Administration. As a result of his business education and business experience, he has carried the leadership cult into the White House—with disastrous results. Many others have deplored Bush's incompetence and moral arrogance. Hail to the CEO is the first book to explain that his failures—from faith-based initiatives to the unconstitutional war on terror—reflect not just on him but on the business culture that created him. Moreover, Hail to the CEO challenges many of the assumptions underlying today's conventional wisdom on leadership. It will show leaders, for example, that it is morally dangerous to manage by values rather than manage for values. Hail to the CEO offers a new model of leadership in which moral influence is earned, not used, by managing as competently and justly as possible. More important, by reminding citizens of the democratic principle that leaders may be moral menaces as well as moral exemplars, Hail to the CEO will help protect freedom.

Download or read book Indian Games and Dances with Native Songs written by Alice Cunningham Fletcher and published by IndyPublish.com. This book was released on 1915 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One day Alice C. Fletcher realized that "unlike my Indian friends, I was an alien, a stranger in my native land." But while living with the Indians and pursuing her ethnological studies she felt that "the plants, the trees, the clouds and all things had become vocal with human hopes, fears, and supplications." This famous statement comes directly from the preface of this book and was later etched on her tombstone. "I have arranged these dances and games with native songs in order that our young people may recognize, enjoy and share in the spirit of the olden life upon this continent, " she wrote. Indian Games and Dances with Native Songs is a collection that conveys the pleasure and meaning of music and play and rhythmic movement for American Indians. Many of the activities here described are adapted from ceremonials and sports. Included is a "drama in five dances" celebrating the life of corn. "Calling the Flowers" is an appeal to spirits dwelling underground to join the dancers. Still another dramatic dance, with accompanying songs, petitions clouds to leave the sky. The Festival of Joy, an ancient Omaha ceremony, is centered on a sacred tree. In the second part Indian ball games and games of hazard and guessing are set forth, as well as the popular hoop and javelin game. Fletcher closes with a section on Indian names. Alice C. Fletcher, the foremost woman anthropologist in the United States in the nineteenth century, is also the author, with Francis La Flesche, of A Study of Omaha Indian Music and the two-volume Omaha Tribe. Both titles are available as Bison Books. Helen Myers is the coauthor of Folk Music in the United States: An Introduction.

Download or read book Our Puppet Government written by John R. Krismer and published by CCB Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few realize a New World Order plans to replace our constitution with a Single World Government, nor that our Federal Reserve Bank is privately owned and is not subject to oversight by Congress or the President. Its stockholders include the Rockefellers, Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers of New York; the Rothschild's of London and Berlin; the Lazard Brothers of Paris; Israel Seiff of Italy; the Kuhn & Loeb Company of Germany; and the Warburgs of Hamburg and Amsterdam, earning almost two billion dollars a day in interest as they buy off our dysfunctional Congress and intentionally level this great nation. George H. W. Bush, the undisputed "Overlord" of the Shrub Dynasty, in his State of the Union Message in 1991 said: "What is at stake is more than one small country, it is a big idea - a new world order." Did We the People ever agree to this treasonous act of turning over our nation's sovereignty to a Single World Government? About the Author John R.

Download or read book Bushwhacked written by Molly Ivins and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simultaneously rollicking and sobering indictment of the policies of President George W. Bush, Bushwhacked chronicles the destructive impact of the Bush administration on the very people who put him in the White House in the first place. Here are the ties that connected Bush to Enron, yes, but here, too, is the story of the woman who walks six miles to the unemployment office daily, wondering what happened to the economic security Bush promised. Here are reports on failed nation-building missions in Kabul and Baghdad. Here, too, the story of a rancher who has fallen prey to a Bush-Cheney interior department that is perhaps a wee bit too cozy with the oil industry. Bushwhacked is highly original and entirely thought-provoking—essential reading for anyone living in George W. Bush's America.
