When retired dentist Dr Cantor's wife Nelly asked him if he had purchased the Powerball lottery ticket she had asked him to purchase, he hesitated and remembered that he did. To his amazement he almost had a heart attack when he saw that he had the winning number. The prize was no laughing matter it was the largest lottery accumulation in history. One billion three hundred million $1.300.000.000. He then remembered that his mother had had similar luck 65 years ago in the Dominican Republic where the family had migrated from war torn Europe. Now what were The Cantors going to do with that much money? First they met with their children and family and some friends to make their life easier. Then, The Cantors decided that they now had the opportunity to make a difference. They now had money, and money talks. Now they can make themselves heard. They now had power which creates respect. They devised an incredible plan. They would create a world contest. This contest would have amazing consequences "It will change the world" he said. Dr Cantor began his plan by creating an association-World Good News Association (WGNA). They were lucky to interest a world re-known financial expert Mike Frederick and his lovely Betty Klash, a former world bank president. They created an 18 point contest with very tempting prizes for contestants with exceptional results. Once the contest and its rules were known to the world, thousands of applicants came forward and hundred of world financial gurus volunteered their money and time to make all of this a reality. Some of the 18 points consisted of methods to resolve the following basic world problems. Food and water scarcity, elimination of nuclear weapons, guaranteed democratic elections in all countries, a world supreme court, how to resolve the world immigration problem, weather and disaster control, faster travel, cure of all major diseases, abolishment of all dictator-led governments. These and several others ideas created a positive world-wide reaction. However, these ideas also created criminal opposition groups. The success of the contest would cause many distress and alter their power structure. These negative groups would attempt to put a stop to the contest. With the help of internationally led secret service inspector Arcand and his very special aid Agustina, kidnappings and extortion attempts were neutralized. What finally happened to the contest? Who became involved? How did the White House help? Why did the Nobel prize organization get involved? Did Russia and China agree with the contest? How would it affect them? These and other questions will be answered in this action filled adventure.

The U.S. Constitution is clear on the appointment of executive officials: the president nominates, the Senate approves. But on the question of removing those officials, the Constitution is silent—although that silence has not discouraged strenuous efforts to challenge, censure, and even impeach presidents from Andrew Jackson to Bill Clinton. As J. David Alvis, Jeremy D. Bailey, and Flagg Taylor show, the removal power has always been and continues to be a thorny issue, especially as presidential power has expanded dramatically during the past century. Linking this provocative issue to American political and constitutional development, the authors recount removal power debate from the Founding to the present day. Understanding the historical context of outbreaks in the debate, they contend, is essential to sorting out the theoretical claims from partisan manoeuvring and sectional interests, enabling readers to better understand the actual constitutional questions involved. After a detailed review of the Decision of 1789, the book examines the initial assertions of executive power theory, particularly by Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson, then the rise of the argument for congressional delegation, beginning with the Whigs and ending with the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. The authors chronicle the return of executive power theory in the efforts of Presidents Grant, Hayes, Garfield, and Cleveland, who all battled with Congress over removals, then describe the emergence of new institutional arrangements with the creation of independent regulatory commissions. They conclude by tracking the rise of the unitarians and the challenges that this school has posed to the modern administrative state. Although many scholars consider the matter to have been settled in 1789, the authors argue that a Supreme Court case as recent as 2010—Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board—shows the extent to which questions surrounding removal power remain unresolved and demand more attention. Their work offers a more nuanced and balanced account of the debate, teasing out the logic of the different institutional perspectives on this important constitutional question as no previous book has.
This collection of studies is concerned with exploring some of the many issues faced by Caribbean Societies, as those societies grappled with the problems generated by the demise of slavery. The experiences of the post-slavery period make the Caribbean less of a homogenous area of study then the slave period, when the commonalities were more obvious and compelling. The circumstances in which the slave systems were dismantled, and the differences in the timing of the end of slavery combine with other factors to make the Caribbean an area of diverse post-emancipation experiences, despite some obvious areas of real commonality. The present volume seeks to contribute to the understanding of the post emancipation period by taking as its jumping off point the debate over continuity and change, and has as its central concerns the issues of conflict, control and resistance. The issues covered by the contributors include law and the penal system; riots and social uprising; labour control; religion, marriage and other areas of cultural interest.This collection is a result of a fruitful collaboration between the Centre for Caribbean Studies at the University of Warwick and the UNESCO-York University Nigerian Hinterland Project funded by the Canadian Social Sciences and Research Council.
