This report was produced by the CSIS Nuclear Consensus Working Group (NCWG) to assist the Obama administration in forging, during its second term, an enduring consensus about the U.S. nuclear posture. The report includes (1) seven individual statements from nuclear thinkers and practitioners across the “broad middle” of the spectrum of opinion on the role and value of U.S. nuclear weapons, the U.S. nuclear posture needed for this defined role, and a political strategy for sustaining the recommended posture; (2) a consensus statement signed by eight members of the NCWG; (3) A description of the process used by the NCWG to forge the signed statement, which includes the lessons learned from the facilitation process; and (4) A case study covering 2008-2012, which provides both a chronology of past attempts to broker consensus about the U.S. nuclear posture and the working group’s assessment of the lessons learned.

After his retirement in 1996 Michael Frederick Clark continues to be active as a published Field Ornithologist, as well as in his work as a pastoral visitor and 3rd World volunteer. A lover of nature and of all things "classical" in the arts, he is also an enthusiastic reader in several fields. In recent years, Mr. Clark has published two works of fiction and two of poetry, all through AuthorHouse, including "GOLDEN YEARS: Three Tales For A Winter's Evening" and the present work (fiction), and "MIXED TIDINGS: Shorter Lyrics And Other Poems" and "SOUNDINGS: A Volume of Longer Poems." Distraught and aging, Henry Newsome, a retired Chief of Detectives from the St. Louis Police Department, travels north in the late '60's]into Canada to visit with his cousin, Mini Carmichael, who decades before he had asked to be his wife. In the small town of Dunnestun, Ontario, Henry is met by one of the heaviest winter storms on record, and by a tangled web of hideous murders that tests even his skills as an internationally acclaimed forensics expert. Plagued by a town plunged into a deep winter torpor, a green and conflicted police sergeant, his own issues with advancing age, and his frustrating attempts to reconnect with his much altered cousin, Henry's task is far from easy. Most vexing and problematic is Mini's strange little "nephew," a visionary, who is in some way central to the case.While the bringing to justice of a brutal and cold-blooded child murderer is the plot's centerpiece, it is only one part of a larger story of deepening intrigue and mystery. As told from the multiple viewpoints of the engaging principal characters, HENRY NEWSOME'S LAST CASE will hold the attentive reader's interest to the very last page.

In all his long years, Amilmamir had survived wars across the changing landscape. Love and family, animal companions, and a duty to forests and his gods pushed him forward as times changed. Now he finds himself with a new love in the very young and energetic Annelise. Not sure he deserves her, or should even consider it; he finds his shell of indifference shattering under her playful charms. But with all the good in his life, a foreign queen threatens to take it all. An unlikely team ranging from warrior princes and magi to assassins, city defenders and wastrels rally around him as he starts a journey to save his love, his lands, and what remains of his precious memories. Travelling dark tunnels and dungeon paths, fighting creatures changed by magic and alchemy, the hard questions remain: To whom am I loyal? Who is worth living for? Who is worth dying for? And who will stand vigil for an old ranger's homecoming?
Outer Banks Visionaries: Building North Carolina's Oceanfront
Dreamers, Risk Takers, Innovators...The chain of barrier islands that skirt the coast of North Carolina from the Virginia border to Cape Lookout were once remote. Today the Outer Banks is one of America's most popular vacation destinations, welcoming millions of visitors each year. Like Walt Disney World or Las Vegas, the initial ideas around what is today a glittering vacation capital were, at one point, nothing more than a shared vision of what was possible. A series of dreamers fired the engines of the popular attraction to this scattering of sandy islands that resonates across much of the Eastern United States today.Author and Outer Banks native Clark Twiddy chronicles the region's journey from isolation to popularity through the stories of these innovators and risk-takers.
