Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you like no-nonsense crime-busting, straight-shooting opinions, and offbeat humor, you’ll love this greatest-hits collection from surprise Internet sensation Chief David A. Oliver of the Brimfield Police Department . . . He’s been called “the coolest police chief in existence,” but David Oliver says he’s just doing his job—and still doesn’t understand how his small-town police department’s Facebook page attracted a worldwide audience. Readers from as far away as Australia, Ireland, and Hong Kong, and from every state in the U.S. “stop by” daily for a virtual cup of coffee with the chief. Whether he’s busting “mopes” (old-fashioned cop slang for criminal types), comforting a teen runaway, or promoting school safety, Oliver’s folksy and feisty style connects with readers. He tackles tough issues: The invasion of Meth and other drugs. Drunk driving. School shootings. He champions personal responsibility, and chastises politicians. “I have a low tolerance for nonsense,” Oliver says. This book collects the best of the chief’s politically incorrect essays, delightfully sarcastic letters to criminals, humorous crime reports, inspirational quotes, and more. Enter the colorful world of the Brimfield PD . . . Where you do NOT want to win a pair of “silver bracelets” and “a trip to the bed-and-breakfast” . . . Where drug mopes are pursued by a “Meth Whisperer” . . . Where dispatch calls might include an APB (“All-Pig Bulletin”) . . . And where kids caught bicycling safely are issued tickets—for free ice cream. If you’re not a mope, you’ll fit right in! David Oliver will donate all of his income from this book to the Chief Oliver Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that distributes funds to police department charitable programs and assists juvenile survivors of sexual assault.

Morning Dove became pregnant, looked down on by the tribe for violating tribal laws, while the non-tribal boyfriend was forbidden to see Morning Dove. Years later, Jameson Brown returns to the community adjacent to the reservation and frequented the local drug store soda fountain. He was not aware that Hayward Brown was his son who was the one making the malts, shakes, sundaes, and banana splits behind the counter for customers. During a brush-clearing operation just west of the Stockdale residence, the earthmoving machinery unearthed a human skeleton. The police were called to the job site. This led to a criminal investigation. Buckle up your seatbelts, for one suspenseful ride.

Download or read book Migrant Construction Workers in Times of Crisis written by Iraklis Dimitriadis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how migrant construction workers in Southern Europe faced unemployment and precarious work conditions during and after the Great Recession. By drawing on rich qualitative data, it investigates the experiences of Albanian men within and beyond the workplace, and sheds light on the capacity of migrant builders to deal with economic hardships and the role of their families and masculine identities in shaping their coping practices. This book suggests a new framework for the study of coping practices among migrant (construction) workers, and adds to the study of integration processes in Southern European countries by comparing the narratives of settled migrants in Italy and Greece. This book also looks at the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on migrant builders’ lives in Southern Europe. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this book is of interest both to students and researchers in the field of migration studies and those working in the fields of sociology, geography, anthropology, political science and economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction Finalist for the J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction One of NPR's Best Books of 2021 A New York Times Notable Book of 2021 One of TIME's 100 Must-Read Books of 2021 "The scope is sweeping, the writing is beautiful. It’s an epic story worthy of the impact this one case has had on the American psyche." —Michel Martin, NPR "Stupendous…. If you want to understand Roe more deeply before the coming decision, read it." —Peggy Noonan, Wall Street Journal A masterpiece of reporting on the Supreme Court’s most divisive case, Roe v. Wade, and the unknown lives at its heart. Despite her famous pseudonym, “Jane Roe,” no one knows the truth about Norma McCorvey (1947–2017), whose unwanted pregnancy in 1969 opened a great fracture in American life. Journalist Joshua Prager spent hundreds of hours with Norma, discovered her personal papers—a previously unseen trove—and witnessed her final moments. The Family Roe presents her life in full. Propelled by the crosscurrents of sex and religion, gender and class, it is a life that tells the story of abortion in America. Prager begins that story on the banks of Louisiana’s Atchafalaya River where Norma was born, and where unplanned pregnancies upended generations of her forebears. A pregnancy then upended Norma’s life too, and the Dallas waitress became Jane Roe. Drawing on a decade of research, Prager reveals the woman behind the pseudonym, writing in novelistic detail of her unknown life from her time as a sex worker in Dallas, to her private thoughts on family and abortion, to her dealings with feminist and Christian leaders, to the three daughters she placed for adoption. Prager found those women, including the youngest—Baby Roe—now fifty years old. She shares her story in The Family Roe for the first time, from her tortured interactions with her birth mother, to her emotional first meeting with her sisters, to the burden that was uniquely hers from conception. The Family Roe abounds in such revelations—not only about Norma and her children but about the broader “family” connected to the case. Prager tells the stories of activists and bystanders alike whose lives intertwined with Roe. In particular, he introduces three figures as important as they are unknown: feminist lawyer Linda Coffee, who filed the original Texas lawsuit yet now lives in obscurity; Curtis Boyd, a former fundamentalist Christian, today a leading provider of third-trimester abortions; and Mildred Jefferson, the first black female Harvard Medical School graduate, who became a pro-life leader with great secrets. An epic work spanning fifty years of American history, The Family Roe will change the way you think about our enduring American divide: the right to choose or the right to life.
