I cannot tell a lie, said General George Washington. The Time Warp Trio helped me cross the Delaware River and surprise the enemy troops. So how did Christmas Eve in the twenty-first century turn into Christmas Day in 1776? Well, it was sort of an accident. And for once, it wasn't Joe's, Sam's, and Fred's fault Can American history survive the Time Warp Trio? You'll just have to ask Sam's time-warping great-granddaughter Samantha . . . and her leaky cat.
Why Do I Do What I Don`t Want to Do? – Replace Deadly Vices with Life–Giving Virtues
How to overcome the habits that are stealing joy from your lifeOur upside-down culture celebrates vice and undervalues virtue, leading us to feed the wrong habits while we allow life-giving practices to die. It's no wonder we feel empty, exhausted, and directionless.There's a better, more fulfilling way to live, and it doesn't involve looking inside yourself for the answers--because that's not where you'll find them. With his signature wit and wisdom, Jonathan "JP" Pokluda helps you? unpack the age-old virtues we're told to pursue in Scripture? understand how these God-given goals free us to love and live as we wish we would? redefine what's important to you and reclaim a life of virtuePracticing virtues is not just something you do--it's something done in you, slowly but surely transforming you into the person you were meant to be all along.
My Enemy, My Defender: Al-Qaeda Defended Me When My Government Wouldn't
Tim Jon Semmerling takes you on his myth-breaking, irony-twisting, behind-the-scenes memoir of defending an enemy's life at the 9/11 War Court. If you think you know the good guys from the bad, you're in for a shocking revelation. In his meteoric rise to legal expert, the DoD and CIA clear Semmerling into Guantanamo Bay. He is appointed to defend al-Qaeda's Walid bin 'Atash--whom President George W. Bush called "a killer." Semmerling works to convince this enemy that he is there to help save his life. He learns to feel secure when sitting across from this chained man, but he cannot foresee that the defense team's attorneys, freely sitting next to him and smiling all along, are the real danger. He calls out their misconduct, corruption, and insatiable hunger to gaslight and bully the weak. Feeling threatened, they ruthlessly conspire to remove him from his position. To bring Walid to their side, they appeal to his religious convictions and deep-seated homophobia. They reveal to Walid that Semmerling is gay and concoct lies that Semmerling has lustful designs on him. But Walid sees through their chicanery. He focuses on Semmerling's deeds and character. He defends his expert and provides truthful testimony of the attorneys' bullying and betrayal, demonstrating an important facet of his own morals and humanity. The War Court silences Walid to protect the $6 billion Guantanamo enterprise. But the attorneys have brought upon themselves, and future attorneys, an astonishing death-penalty conflict --exposed by My Enemy, My Defender for the world to hear.

Curbing Corruption in Asian Countries

Curbing Corruption in Asian Countries

As corruption is a serious problem in many Asian countries their governments have introduced many anti-corruption measures since the 1950s. This book analyzes and evaluates the anti-corruption strategies employed in Hong Kong SAR, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mongolia, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. These countries are selected because they represent the three major patterns of corruption control with Japan adopting Pattern 1 (anti-corruption laws without any anti-corruption agency [ACA]); India, the Philippines and Taiwan employing Pattern 2 (anti-corruption laws with multiple ACAs); and, Singapore, Hong Kong SAR, Thailand, South Korea, Indonesia, and Mongolia belonging to Pattern 3 (anti-corruption laws with a single ACA). Among the ten countries only Singapore and Hong Kong SAR have succeeded in minimizing corruption because of the commitment of their political leaders in curbing corruption, their favorable policy contexts, and the impartial implementation of effective anti-corruption measures. On the other hand, the other eight Asian countries have failed to curb corruption because of the lack of political will, their unfavorable policy contexts, and their reliance on ineffective anti-corruption measures.
Public Administration Singapore-Style

Public Administration Singapore-Style

Singapore was ranked first for the competence of its public officials from 1999 to 2002 by "The Global Competitiveness Report". While research has been done on various aspects of public administration in Singapore, there is to date no comprehensive study of the Singapore Civil Service and the statutory boards and their contribution to the attainment of national development goals. The aim of this book is to rectify this gap in the literature by providing a detailed study of public administration Singapore-style. Public administration Singapore-style is characterized by these features: macho-meritocracy; competing with the private sector for talent; low level of corruption; reliance on institutional and attitudinal administrative reforms; reliance on statutory boards to implement socio-economic development programs; effective policy implementation, improving service to the public; and using policy diffusion to solve problems. The book's main thesis is that the nature of public administration in Singapore results from the combined influence of Singapore's policy context and the various policies introduced by the People's Action Party government since it assumed office in June 1959, 50 years ago.

Companies are becoming more global and international, and commerce and information flow seamlessly across national borders. In addition, modernization, rapid technological change, an increasingly (shared) global culture, and shifting socio-demographic values have created conditions in which career stability is more threatened, while the importance of managing the career well is paramount. But, what do we know about careers in different contexts and how those career experiences vary in different regions and countries of the world? The goal of this book is to develop new understandings of career from the vantage point of those who live in diverse cultures, and who belong to different generations. Careers Around the World explores the very meaning of what a career for individuals is in different countries, cultures, professions and age groups. What does career success mean for people around the world? What are key career transitions, and how are they best managed in different cultures? As those questions have not yet been investigated in the literature of careers across cultures and generations, the authors have taken an approach that led to hearing the answers directly from working people around the globe. This book presents the answers to these questions from each of the seven major cultural regions of the world and the practical implications of these differences for those who manage human resources in organizations that cross national boundaries, as well as those who advise on careers.
