Download or read book Our Path to Safety written by Jason Wells and published by Dtac Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if there was a way to identify a threat to a school, a business or a community before it happened? What attackers who target innocent people have in common is not their psychological conditions nor their social upbringing, but rather their behavioral actions prior to their violence. These behaviors have been studied at length for years, and are now available to the public. Former U.S. Secret Service Agent Jason Wells outlines these behavioral conditions, which have been used by the federal government for decades to protect leaders of the world, to include the President of the United States. With this guide, members of the community can learn what kinds of behaviors should be of concern, and how society can act in a safe and proactive manner to address them. With analysis into behavioral indicators and real-world examples in the stories of some of the most prolific attackers in U.S. history, Jason Wells sets out to empower the reader to understand that it is the national community who will protect itself from future acts of active shooter attacks, domestic terrorism, and random violence in our country. Our Path To Safety is filled with compelling true stories, gripping analysis and outlined solutions to addressing violence through behavioral interventions and positive action.

Download or read book The Quick 30/30 Job Solution written by Neil P. McNulty and published by . This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lifeboat job is one individuals need to find NOW in order to keep themselves financially afloat in difficult times. It's essentially a survival job - not one that necessarily leads to an exciting career or high wages. It's all about meeting the necessities of life and becoming self-sufficient on the outside. Ex-offenders know all too well the importance of lifeboat jobs. Being released from prison or jail without money, a job, or family support, and facing immediate housing, clothing, food, and transportation needs - as well as probation and parole reporting requirements - they need to quickly land a job near where they live. The authors reveal how anyone with a stable work history and marketable skills can quickly find a job close to home by using an arsenal of unconventional job search strategies and techniques that get the attention of prospective employers. Indeed, they outline the fastest, most effective job hunting system anywhere for finding employment. The book includes three unique principles for job search success: Talent Intersecting Opportunity (TIO) Principle; Talent and Geography (TAG) Principle; 30-Mile Placement Principle. Filled with step-by-step advice on everything from identifying employers, writing resumes, and composing emails to leaving voicemail messages, interviewing, and follow-up over a 30-day period, here is the book that can make a big difference in the lives of ex-offenders who need a lifeboat job to survive in today's challenging economy.
Book Synopsis Warrior Diplomat by : Michael G. Waltz
Download or read book Warrior Diplomat written by Michael G. Waltz and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grappling with centuries-old feuds, defeating a shrewd insurgency, and navigating the sometimes paralyzing bureaucracy of the U.S. military are issues that prompt sleepless nights for both policy makers in Washington and soldiers at war, albeit for different reasons. Few, however, have dealt with these issues in the White House situation room and on the front line. Michael G. Waltz has done just that, working as a policy advisor to Vice President Richard B. Cheney and also serving in the mountains of Afghanistan as a Green Beret, directly implementing strategy in the field that he helped devise in Washington. In Warrior Diplomat: A Green Beret’s Battles from Washington to Afghanistan Waltz shares his unique firsthand experiences, revealing the sights, sounds, emotions, and complexities involved in the war in Afghanistan. Waltz also highlights the policy issues that have plagued the war effort throughout the past decade, from the drug trade, to civilian casualties, to a lack of resources in comparison to Iraq, to the overall coalition strategy. At the same time, he points out that stabilizing Afghanistan and the region remains crucial to national security and that a long-term commitment along the lines of South Korea or Germany is imperative if America is to remain secure.

Download or read book Know the Night written by Maria Mutch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A transcendent memoir by poet Maria Mutch about the distances that can form between people who should be the closest of all—husband and wife, parent and child, lifelong friends and partners. Unfolding over the witching hours between midnight and 6am, this moving and meditative book takes place during the two year period in which the author's son Gabriel, who is autistic and also has Down Syndrome, did not sleep through the night. Gabriel spends much of his life as a puzzling enigma to his parents, but when he becomes unlocked by jazz music, his mother finds herself taking him into jazz clubs at all hours of the night, where he becomes a favorite patron. There is a fierce beauty in the isolation that envelops these two people as they wait out the nighttime hours, which Mutch compares to the isolation of polar explorer Admiral Richard Byrd. His story, interwoven here, brings insight into the profound experience of physical isolation, and creates a shared language for the experience of feeling alone. Through these three main characters—mother, son, adventuring explorer—Mutch triangulates overlapping and layered themes of solitude that enlighten and uplift one another.

Now Cougar, his father's old accomplice, has tracked Cameron down and presented an ultimatum: Share the wealth or be exposed. Will Cameron give up his new identity to protect Neil's family?
