Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, when Keith Kakugawa found himself on the streets of Downtown LA, fresh out of prison, he reached out to his high school friend, Senator Barack Obama. Unfortunately, he was portrayed as a saboteur by a member of the Presidential election campaign. Though Keith felt left out to dry at a time when he could have used a hand up, he has remained faithful to his friend. Keith was known simply as "Ray" in Obama's book "Dreams From My Father."In the absence of Barack's father, and without any strong Black role models in his life, Barack forged a tight bond with Ray. Having lived in LA before Honolulu, Ray was an authentic example of the Black experience. For Barack, it was a time of exploration and reflection, of discovery about what it meant to be Black. Keith was also a big brother role model to Barack, during his search for identity and quest to be a man.One brother used that time of sharing toward becoming the President of the US, while the other took turns to becoming a convicted felon.

Download or read book A Tale of Two Subs written by Jonathan J. McCullough and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2008-05-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the shocking and fascinating true story of one of the most dramatic naval events in World War II history. On November 19, 1943, the submarine USS Sculpin, under attack by the Japanese, slid below the waves for the last time in what would become one of the most remarkable stories in U.S. Naval history. Not only did several crewmembers survive the sinking - an extremely rare event in World War II submarine warfare - but several were aboard a Japanese aircraft carrier enroute to a POW camp when it was in turn torpedoed and sunk by the Sculpin's sister ship, the USS Sailfish. At the end of World War II, several unlikely survivors would tell a tale of endurance against these amazing reversals of fortune. For one officer in particular, who knew that being captured could have meant losing the war for the allies, his struggle was not in surviving, but in sealing his own fate in a heartbreaking act of heroism which culminated in the nation's highest tribute, the Medal of Honor. Sculpin Lt. Commander John Phillip Cromwell was one of the few who knew that American Naval Intelligence had succeeded in cracking Japan's top-secret codes. Cromwell also knew that if the Japanese confirmed this by torturing him, it would force Naval Intelligence to change their encryption, which would potentially change the course of the war. This is Cromwell's story as well. The incredible interconnection of the Sculpin and the Sailfish has been thoroughly researched by Jonathan McCullough. Through access to the few living survivors, scores of oral histories, never-before translated Japanese war documents, and interviews with Navy veterans, McCullough delivers a gripping and, intimate account for the reader.

Download or read book Snow Day written by Mark McCourt and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Snow Day shares the experiences and stories of risk and crisis management leaders who are called to ensure resilience and lead their organizations through critical events. From the initial impact of 9/11 to managing through COVID-19, the decision authority for declaring a crisis, from business disruptions to mass casualty events, the complexities and challenges of making “the right call” in time are detailed. Case studies include 9/11 evacuation or non-evacuation directions that saved or cost lives to an actual snow day in Atlanta, that left thousands of school students stranded in schools and on roadways in buses. The extent to which crisis management strategy, technology and training were leveraged--or not--made all the difference. The pandemic is the mother of all Snow Days and Mark McCourt captures the thinking and emotions of business leaders who share their personal and courageous first-hand experiences. The book dives deeply into the mental and emotional impact of crisis related trauma’s impact on employees and their wellness through interviews with leading medical experts and analyzes the technologies and services available for predictive critical event management. Snow Day is a somber reminder to us all of what is at stake in these perilous times and a welcome guide as to how we might best survive them.

Download or read book Seize the Daylight written by David Prerau and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benjamin Franklin conceived of it. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle endorsed it. Winston Churchill campaigned for it. Kaiser Wilhelm first employed it. Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt went to war with it, and more recently the United States fought an energy crisis with it. For several months every year, for better or worse, daylight savings time affects vast numbers of people throughout the world. And from Ben Franklin's era to today, its story has been an intriguing and sometimes-bizarre amalgam of colorful personalities and serious technical issues, purported costs and perceived benefits, conflicts between interest groups and government policymakers. It impacts diverse and unexpected areas, including agricultural practices, street crime, the reporting of sports scores, traffic accidents, the inheritance rights of twins, and voter turnout. Illustrated with a popular look at science and history, Seize the Daylight presents an intriguing and surprisingly entertaining story of our attempt to regulate the sunlight hours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer science has drawn from and contributed to many disciplines and practices since it emerged as a field in the middle of the 20th century. Those interactions, in turn, have contributed to the evolution of information technology â€" new forms of computing and communications, and new applications â€" that continue to develop from the creative interactions between computer science and other fields. Beyond Productivity argues that, at the beginning of the 21st century, information technology (IT) is forming a powerful alliance with creative practices in the arts and design to establish the exciting new, domain of information technology and creative practicesâ€"ITCP. There are major benefits to be gained from encouraging, supporting, and strategically investing in this domain.
