Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Director Wolfe brings Laynie safely "in from the cold," but she will remain free only if she meets his specified conditions: She must accept the new identity he gives her, and she must meet with an agency "shrink" to address the emotional damage caused by her years undercover-a counselor who will evaluate her fitness to participate in Wolfe's secret task force. Furthermore, she must remain in Wolfe's witness protection program, a program that will keep her hidden from those who continue to hunt her. Sadly, it will also restrict her freedom.But nothing goes as Laynie had hoped or anticipated: The restrictions chafe and bind, she feels like a square peg being pounded into a round hole, and her clashes with the bureaucratic culture send her spiraling downward. And in the background? Dark forces are moving, pushing Laynie into untenable choices. Instead of proving her value to Director Wolfe's satisfaction, Laynie fears her actions will further brand her as the faithless renegade some already believe her to be.Laynie must fight to earn her place on the task force-even as events unfold that point to one conclusion: Wolfe's task force, birthed in agency secrecy, has a leak . . . one that threatens them all.

Book excerpt: No one is born a spy. Every "righteous" clandestine operative is recruited, through one means or another, and trained for the difficult and often terrible work intended to ensure that the principles of freedom triumph over ideologies that seek to dominate and enslave. The year is 1977; the Cold War is intensifying. Helena Portland-Laynie to her family-is set to graduate from the University of Washington, when recruiters from Marstead International invite her to dinner and an informal employment interview. Laynie is flattered: Marstead International is a technology and aeronautics firm with a global presence and reputation. But behind their corporate image? Marstead is a front for joint U.S./NATO covert operations.

Book excerpt: Laynie, Tobin, and Jaz narrowly escape the hit squad sent by the Ukrainian mob-the third attempt to kill members of Director Wolfe's staff. Whatever the task force does and wherever its people go, the enemy is right there, always one step ahead. Wolfe admits that his organization has been compromised-that a mole within his staff is feeding information to the Chechen separatist group All Glorious for Allah. Before their enemy can strike again, Wolfe orders the task force members to immediately abandon their homes and the team's headquarters for safer grounds. The task force, with Laynie leading it, has just reestablished itself within the protective walls of Broadsword when Wolfe receives a coded letter from Cossack, his deep-cover asset in Chechnya. In the letter, Cossack reveals that he has knowledge of a large and significant terror attack scheduled for New Year's Eve. He also alludes to the leak in Wolfe's organization and his fear that passing details of the attack through normal channels will blow his precarious cover. Cossack insists on passing intel on the impending attack to the one person he feels he can trust, the operative who foiled the assassination attempt on Vassili Aleksandrovich Petroff, Russian envoy to the UN. Cossack's demand sends Laynie halfway around the world to a covert meeting in the city of Tbilisi, Georgia. It sends her to her death. The fourth volume in the Laynie Portland series is so harrowing, you'll need to step away and restart your heart.

Download or read book Annals of Gullibility written by Stephen Greenspan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to provide a comprehensive look at the problem of gullibility, this groundbreaking work covers how and why we are fooled in areas that range from religion, politics, science, and medicine, to personal finance and relationships. First laying the groundwork by showing gullibility at play in the writings of historic authors we all know, developmental psychologist Stephen Greenspan follows with chapters that describe social duping across the gamut of human conduct. From people who pour bucks into investment scams, to those who follow the faith of scientologists, believe in fortunetellers, or champion unfounded medicine akin to snake oil, we all know someone who has been duped. A lot of us have been duped ourselves, out of naive trust. It's not a matter of low intelligence that moves us to, without evidence, believe the words of politicians, salesmen, academics, lawyers, military figures, or cult leaders, among others. Greenspan shows us the four broad reasons we become drawn into gullible behavior, and he presents ways people can become less gullible. Greenspan takes us into the vast realm of gullibility from the fictional Pied Piper to the historical Trojan Horse, then through modern-day military maneuvers, political untruths, police and criminal justice scams, and financial and love lies. While there have been earlier books focused on liars and manipulators of all sorts, this is the first to focus on the gullible who are their victims, and how the gullible can become less likely to be taken again.

This book was released on 2008-10-08 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tree species are indispensable to support human life. Due to their long life cycle and environmental sensitivity, breeding trees to suit day-to-day human needs is a formidable challenge. Whether they are edible or industrial crops, improving yield under optimal, sub-optimal and marginal areas calls for uni?ed efforts from the s- entistsaroundtheworld. Whiletheuniquenessofcoconutaskalpavriksha(Sanskr- meaning tree-of-life) marks its presence in every continent from Far East to South America, tree crops like cocoa, oil palm, rubber, apple, peach, grapes and walnut prove their environmental sensitivity towards tropical, sub-tropical and temperate climates. Desert climate is quintessential for date palm. Thus, from soft drinks to breweries to beverages to oil to tyres, the value addition offers a spectrum of pr- ucts to human kind, enriched with nutritional, environmental, ?nancial, social and trade related attributes. Taxonomically, tree crops do not con?ne to a few families, but spread across a section of genera, an attribute so unique that contributes immensely to genetic biodiversity even while cultivated at the commercial scale. Many of these species in?uence other ?ora to nurture in their vicinity, thus ensuring their integrity in p- serving the genetic biodiversity.

Book excerpt: My name is Gemma Keyes.Other than my name, I am utterly forgettable-so those who never paid much attention to me in the first place haven't exactly noticed that I've disappeared. Vanished. Oh, it's much more complicated than it sounds. And let me tell you, "invisibility comes with its own set of problems." I should tell you about Dr. Samuel Bickel, world-renowned nanophysicist. We used to work together, but I'll be candid with you: "He's supposed to be dead." Well, he's "not." (Imagine my surprise.) Instead of the proverbial "six feet under," he's subsisting in an abandoned devolution cavern beneath the old Manzano Weapons Storage Facility on Kirtland Air Force Base here in Albuquerque. "I need to show you what I'm protecting here, Gemma," he insisted. I stared into the clear glass case. I could hear . . . humming, clicking, buzzing. A faint haze inside the box shifted. Dissolved. Came back together. It reminded me of how mercury, when released on a plate, will flow and form new shapes. Only this, this "thing" was "flowing and forming" "in midair." "Do you see them?" Dr. Bickel asked. "Them?" I was confused. My mouth opened to a stunned "o" as the silver haze resolved into blue letters. H E L L O Dr. Bickel hadn't pressed any buttons. Hadn't said anything to them. Hadn't gestured. He grinned. "Ah. They've noticed you. They know they haven't seen you before." "Well, I wish they "wouldn't" notice me!" And I need to warn you about General Cushing. The rank and name likely conjure images of a lean but muscled old soldier, posture rigid, face cemented in unyielding lines, iron-gray hair cut high and tight. "Let me disabuse you of that impression." General Imogene Cushing is short and a tiny bit plump. "She" wears her silvered hair in an elegant braid knotted at the nape of her neck, and she knows how to smile sweetly. "With the deadliest of sharks.." You wouldn't suspect a two-star general, "an Air Force O-8," of being a traitor, would you? Nanostealth "Stealthy Steps" "Stealth Power," 2016 "Stealth Beyond Borders," 2017

This book was released on 2012-07-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to September 11, 2001, most Americans viewed globalization as primarily -perhaps exclusively-an economic phenomenon.1 The economic evidence -rapidly shifting flows of world capital, expansion of overseas markets and investments, the global connections of e-commerce and the Internet, as examples -seemed readily apparent, even if some critics viewed globalization itself as an illdefined term. But appropriately defined or not, the concept of globalization had already achieved considerable stature, causing corporate boards and shareholders to thirst after presumably growing international markets, Internet junkies to claim their own transnational community, and antiglobalization protestors to smash municipal trash cans from Seattle to Washington.

Download or read book German Cinema in the Age of Neoliberalism written by Hester Baer and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new history of German film from 1980-2010, a period that witnessed rapid transformations, including intensified globalization, a restructured world economy, geopolitical realignment, and technological change, all of which have affected cinema in fundamental ways. Rethinking the conventional periodization of German film history, Baer posits 1980-rather than 1989-as a crucial turning point for German cinema's embrace of a new market orientation and move away from the state-sponsored film culture that characterized both DEFA and the New German Cinema. Reading films from East, West, and post-unification Germany together, Baer argues that contemporary German cinema is characterized most strongly by its origins in and responses to advanced capitalism. Informed by a feminist approach and in dialogue with prominent theories of contemporary film, the book places a special focus on how German films make visible the neoliberal recasting of gender and national identities around the new millennium.
