DRASTIC MEASURES ~ THE CASE OF CHRISTOPHER WATTS is written to share opinions I have formed after extensive research of this case over the last three years, including speaking directly with Christopher Watts' mother - Cindy Watts - multiple times following the tragedy which occurred on August 13, 2018 at the Watts' family home in Frederick, Colorado. While I am supportive of Cindy Watts - and her right to speak - this book is not written at her direction or on her behalf. However, this book is written with EXPRESS PERMISSION from Cindy Watts, who has directly stated her blessings for any book I write - or audiobook/video that I create. This true crime case opinion book is written to explore my OPINIONS on the case itself, primarily to include my thoughts specific to Cindy's relationship with her daughter-in-law Shanann (pronounced "shan-uhn" - Shannon - by her birth family), and the dynamics of her daughter-in-law's relationships with Cindy's son and their two children. I will also explore my opinion on whether it is reasonable to believe that Christopher Watts may have been telling the truth when he insisted that he did not murder his children, Bella and Ce Ce Watts. And I will include my opinion on whether the threshold of the legal standard "BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT" would have been crossed by the prosecution had this case proceeded to trial. Over the last three years, since the public was initially told that poor little Bella and Ce Ce were murdered in what should have been the safety of their own home, there has been a narrative promoted on this case portraying Christopher Watts as nothing but an evil monster, while his wife always was and will forever be a saint. People who openly question the narrative in the comment sections on social media are oftentimes harassed, threatened, and intimidated right along with those of us who have been targeted for abuse and harassment from the start, before many of us had ever even heard of this case. The attackers are an organized group of ruthless criminals, in my opinion, who are using multiple fake profiles, and who openly boast they will not stop harassing us, and our families, and our employers, etc. until they succeed in "DESTROYING" our lives. Clearly, their goal is to frighten all of us into silence, including Christopher Watts' mother, Cindy Watts. In my opinion, Christopher Watts is not evil - nor is his mother, who has been unfairly maligned and targeted for abuse and harassment since the day her son's case first hit the headline news. Also, in my opinion, contrary to the narrative being pushed by the attackers, Cindy Watts' daughter-in-law was probably not a saint. Maybe that's my opinion because I know the rest of the story. And, in my opinion, THE REST OF THE STORY deserves to be told. ~

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An all-new novel based upon the explosive Star Trek TV series! It is 2246, ten years prior to the Battle at the Binary Stars, and an aggressive contagion is ravaging the food supplies of the remote Federation colony Tarsus IV and the eight thousand people who call it home. Distress signals have been sent, but any meaningful assistance is weeks away. Lieutenant Commander Gabriel Lorca and a small team assigned to a Starfleet monitoring outpost are caught up in the escalating crisis, and bear witness as the colony’s governor, Adrian Kodos, employs an unimaginable solution in order to prevent mass starvation. While awaiting transfer to her next assignment, Commander Philippa Georgiou is tasked with leading to Tarsus IV a small, hastily assembled group of first responders. It’s hoped this advance party can help stabilize the situation until more aid arrives, but Georgiou and her team discover that they‘re too late—Governor Kodos has already implemented his heinous strategy for extending the colony’s besieged food stores and safeguarding the community’s long-term survival. In the midst of their rescue mission, Georgiou and Lorca must now hunt for the architect of this horrific tragedy and the man whom history will one day brand “Kodos the Executioner”….
Download or read book Extreme Measures written by Dr. Jessica Nutik Zitter, M.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of Being Mortal and Modern Death, an ICU and Palliative Care specialist offers a framework for a better way to exit life that will change our medical culture at the deepest level In medical school, no one teaches you how to let a patient die. Jessica Zitter became a doctor because she wanted to be a hero. She elected to specialize in critical care—to become an ICU physician—and imagined herself swooping in to rescue patients from the brink of death. But then during her first code she found herself cracking the ribs of a patient so old and frail it was unimaginable he would ever come back to life. She began to question her choice. Extreme Measures charts Zitter’s journey from wanting to be one kind of hero to becoming another—a doctor who prioritizes the patient’s values and preferences in an environment where the default choice is the extreme use of technology. In our current medical culture, the old and the ill are put on what she terms the End-of-Life Conveyor belt. They are intubated, catheterized, and even shelved away in care facilities to suffer their final days alone, confused, and often in pain. In her work Zitter has learned what patients fear more than death itself: the prospect of dying badly. She builds bridges between patients and caregivers, formulates plans to allay patients’ pain and anxiety, and enlists the support of loved ones so that life can end well, even beautifully. Filled with rich patient stories that make a compelling medical narrative, Extreme Measures enlarges the national conversation as it thoughtfully and compassionately examines an experience that defines being human.

Download or read book Sovereignty Experiments written by Alyssa M. Park and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sovereignty Experiments tells the story of how authorities in Korea, Russia, China, and Japan—through diplomatic negotiations, border regulations, legal categorization of subjects and aliens, and cultural policies—competed to control Korean migrants as they suddenly moved abroad by the thousands in the late nineteenth century. Alyssa M. Park argues that Korean migrants were essential to the process of establishing sovereignty across four states because they tested the limits of state power over territory and people in a borderland where authority had been long asserted but not necessarily enforced. Traveling from place to place, Koreans compelled statesmen to take notice of their movement and to experiment with various policies to govern it. Ultimately, states' efforts culminated in drastic measures, including the complete removal of Koreans on the Soviet side. As Park demonstrates, what resulted was the stark border regime that still stands between North Korea, Russia, and China today. Skillfully employing a rich base of archival sources from across the region, Sovereignty Experiments sets forth a new approach to the transnational history of Northeast Asia. By focusing on mobility and governance, Park illuminates why this critical intersection of Asia was contested, divided, and later reimagined as parts of distinct nations and empires. The result is a fresh interpretation of migration, identity, and state making at the crossroads of East Asia and Russia.

Download or read book Ostkrieg written by Stephen Fritz and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2011-10-14 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 22, 1941, Germany launched the greatest land assault in history on the Soviet Union, an attack that Adolf Hitler deemed crucial to ensure German economic and political survival. As the key theater of the war for the Germans, the eastern front consumed enormous levels of resources and accounted for 75 percent of all German casualties. Despite the significance of this campaign to Germany and to the war as a whole, few English-language publications of the last thirty-five years have addressed these pivotal events. In Ostkrieg: Hitler’s War of Extermination in the East, Stephen G. Fritz bridges the gap in scholarship by incorporating historical research from the last several decades into an accessible, comprehensive, and coherent narrative. His analysis of the Russo-German War from a German perspective covers all aspects of the eastern front, demonstrating the interrelation of military events, economic policy, resource exploitation, and racial policy that first motivated the invasion. This in-depth account challenges accepted notions about World War II and promotes greater understanding of a topic that has been neglected by historians.
