In August of 1976, one of the most notorious murder scenes played out in Ft. Worth, Texas. Cullen Davis was one of the richest men in Texas and his second wife, Priscilla Davis, with whom he was divorcing, was shot in their mansion. Also shot and murdered were her twelve-year-old daughter and her thirty-year-old boyfriend, Stan Farr. Priscilla and two other people said it was Cullen. The culprit was wearing a wig so his identity was somewhat hidden but not completely. Cullen was arrested in the early morning hours of August 3, 1976, at the home of his girlfriend, Karen Master. He later went on trial for the murder of Priscilla''s daughter. He was found not guilty but the next year he was put on trial for a murder-for-hire plot to kill the judge overseeing his divorce from Priscilla. He got off from that charge, too. Finally in 1979 he and Priscilla were divorced. Priscilla received 3.3 million dollars and Cullen was able to move back into his 19,000 square-foot mansion. This book explains the facts of that fateful August night and what happened in the courtrooms of Texas. But the majority chronicles the path Priscilla took after the trials of the 1970''s. Priscilla was not done with Cullen yet and she would try tirelessly to obtain some kind of justice. She also decided to have a little fun along the way. The press loved Priscilla but the general public were split. She had been painted as a low-rent gold-digger in the Texas courtrooms but everyone also knew that Cullen was probably guilty of murder. In the end, only the two of them really knew the truth. This is the story of how Priscilla learned to live with the fact that Cullen would never have to pay for his actions and her reputation would be forever marred. In 1995, a 26-year-old man named Greg Brown moved in with Priscilla, who was now 53. They became lovers and Greg tells how Priscilla learned to make the most of tragic situations which were both of her making and not of her making. It''s a story of struggle, love and compromise even in the most dire of circumstances.

Written from "a peon in this vast universe" type of viewpoint in an effort to find out more about God who is the creator of life, love and all things, the author looks around, explores, discovers, falls down and arises because of her undying curiosity about life. The question "why?" always pops up when things don''t go so right. "What?" is not too far behind as she endeavors to identify the problem. "Where?", of course, follows because once you''ve located the culprit, the next step is where to begin working on the solution. "When?" immediately comes to mind after establishing locale in order to start right away working on solutions. Finally, "how?"--with God''s guidance is the only way (the author believes) to approach a situation, find the right answer and solve the problem! "A Little Something" is the author''s first work written out of an attempt to capture the right perspective in her life with the help of God''s word in a not-so-right environment. Her writings are a reflection of thoughts and emotions experienced as she contemplates about life, discovers love and makes an effort to express it all within the pages of this book.

National security strategy (NSS) changes from president to president. These changes are often referred to as doctrines. Some represent explicit grand strategy, while others require examinations of policy to ferret out. Their enduring traits, however, are most important to national military strategy (NMS). What has endured in America''s superpower experience since World War II is that the United States engages forward in times of peace and fights forward in times of war. In this respect, Maj R. Greg Brown''s Learning to Leave informs strategy at the highest stations of power. He notes that strategy is about managing context and that the context of US national security changed with the end of the Cold War, although its organizing framework did not fundamentally change. Through a thoughtful synthesis of history and organizational theory, Major Brown reveals misperceptions that add to the outdated security framework to further hinder disengagement. In the nexus of the end of the Cold War, the peace dividend, and an increasingly expansive NSS, he finds the historical parallel between the NSS and the NMS no longer appropriate, as it leads military and civilian policy makers to overextend the military. The rather counterintuitive conclusion that follows is that to sustain an expansive NSS of engagement, conflicts when they arise-must be planned with an eye on disengagement of military forces at the earliest reasonable opportunity. As strategic military disengagement is anathema to our national security apparatus and military culture, it must demand preeminence in the NMS to ensure timely disengagement. Regarding current conflicts, Major Brown avoids prescriptions. As we approach the historical inflection point between presidential doctrines, however, we have an opportunity to consider if the end of the Cold War, progress in the current struggle against violent extremism, or the global strategic environment of the twenty-first century warrants a reassessment of our national security structures and policies and the relationship between NSS and NMS. Major Brown writes with a command of the facts and a compelling style. This work is in various degrees historical, theoretical, counterintuitive, and shocking. While certainly not an airpower treatise, it offers keen observations and sound lessons on the use of the proper force for the objective, and it resonates with the inherent advantages that airpower provides national security decision makers. Originally written as a master''s thesis for Air University''s School of Advanced Air and Space Studies (SAASS), Learning to Leave was selected by the Air University Foundation as the best SAASS thesis for academic year 2006-7. It is a fitting installment for the Drew Papers. I am pleased to commend this excellent study and am encouraged by what it portends for national security thought in the ranks of our Air Force.

The Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline project proposes the construction of a twin pipeline system running from central Alberta to an oil tanker port in Kitimat, B.C., providing an unprecedented link between Alberta''s oil sands and Asian markets. The dual pipeline would export 525,000 barrels a day of petroleum products from the oil sands and import 193,000 barrels a day of condensate, a substance used to dilute raw bitumen so that it can flow in a pipeline, aiding additional Alberta oil sands extraction. As such, the environmental consequences and risks of the pipeline project extend beyond the pipeline and the associated oil tanker port. They include the extraction of the additional oil sands bitumen, the tanker traffic and associated risk to B.C.''s inside coastal waters, the upgrading of oil sands bitumen to synthetic crude oil, the refining into usable petroleum products and the end use consumption. The purpose of this report is to estimate the environmental impacts of oil sands expansion that would be enabled by the proposed Northern Gateway Export Pipeline. The data sourced for calculations is from proposed oil sands projects and therefore results in a forward-looking estimate.

In Destiny Groups Book 3, you will learn about biblical destiny, which connects the free will of man with the plans of God.
