Book Randolph Jackson  Undercover S  Expert

Download or read book Randolph Jackson Undercover S Expert written by Larry Church and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 70,000 word novel, Randolph Jackson, Undercover(s) Expert, is a male fantasy. I have never read a male fantasy so I cant site some well know work. The protagonist in the story is forty-one, handsome and divorced years earlier. He has just retired from the Air Force where he was a Colonel in Intelligence. He speaks five foreign languages fluently, has a PhD in political science and was promoted years ahead of his contemporaries. So why quit such a successful career destined to bring him a star or two? Boredom! Jackson had been promoted out of action jobs he loved and relegated to a desk that he hated. Two years before retiring Jackson bought a beautiful home in Oregon from a just divorced friend. A few weeks before leaving the Pentagon for his new life, he shipped his household belongings to Oregon and as the story begins he is on the tail end of a cross country flight from Dulles International Airport to Portland, Oregon. In Portland he buys a new car and on a whim buys a $5.00 lottery ticket. A few weeks later he runs across the ticket in his wallet and checks the newspaper. Of course he has won $9 million after taxes. After a torrid but brief affair with his gorgeous neighbor, Jackson departs upon his longed for trip to Europe and where ever life takes him. In Germany he looks up a former colleague who just happens to be beautiful and smart. After financially assisting her with a project to assist the local military dependents children Jackson moves on to Italy. Here he is able to financially aid a young woman whose child has a physical abnormality that is repairable. Jackson then travels to the Netherlands where he once served in the military and runs across a Dutch man who was a fellow officer. The old friends young sister is introduced to Jackson and over the next few days he learns of her career expectations and is able to give her the money to begin her career in fashion design. Jackson goes next to Oslo, Norway where he saves an old mans life following a traffic accident. The injured mans emergency doctor is beautiful, single and quite open to Jacksons considerable charm. After a time, Jackson leaves the doctor enough money to pay for the old mans rehabilitation and then moves on to Sweden. On his way to Stockholm, Jackson comes upon two young, beautiful ladies stalled along the highway on their way to the big city. He drives them into the city and then sets them up in a spare bedroom in his suite. Over the next few days Jackson buys the girls appropriate clothes, finds them a nice apartment, paying the rent for the first six months and enrolls them in a three month modeling school, fulfilling their fondest dreams. Next, Jackson turns in his rental car and flies to London. On the flight he meets two flight attendants who show him London and a very good time in his suite. In a few days he grows weary of London and flies to Capetown, South Africa where the young lady he met in Italy lives. Realizing that although they love each other, their lives were so disparate they could never live together in South Africa where she is reluctant to leave. On the way to Moscow from Capetown, the Aeroflot flight has to conduct an emergency landing in Kiev, Ukraine. Jackson is a hero during the ensuing emergency, saving numerous lives but ends up in a Kiev hospital. His female doctor and he clash at first but end up on a river cruise. When Jackson learns about her professional aspirations, he provides her enough money to achieve these desires. When Jackson finally makes it to Moscow, thru a number of coincidences, meets the U.S. Ambassador who asks him to help shut down an arms dealer, selling illegally acquired Russian munitions to Middle Eastern countries to the detriment of the United States. With the help of the local CIA Station Chief Jackson manages to acquire enough evidence to give the Embassy enough information to convince the Russ

Book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker.
