Brutal
I grew up in the Old Colony housing project in South Boston and became partners with James "Whitey" Bulger, who I always called Jimmy. Jimmy and I, we were unstoppable. We took what we wanted. And we made people disappear—permanently. We made millions. And if someone ratted us out, we killed him. We were not nice guys. I found out that Jimmy had been an FBI informant in 1999, and my life was never the same. When the feds finally got me, I was faced with something Jimmy would have killed me for—cooperating with the authorities. I pled guilty to twenty-nine counts, including five murders. I went away for five and a half years. I was brutally honest on the witness stand, and this book is brutally honest, too; the brutal truth that was never before told. How could it? Only three people could tell the true story. With one on the run and one in jail for life, it falls on me.

Land Degradation and Forest Management
Land degradation, meaning any reduction or loss in the biological or economic productive capacity of the land resource base, is a global problem. Land, water, and forest resources can become degraded due to poor and often short-sighted management. In this context, land degradation neutrality (LDN) is an approach that counterbalances the expected loss of productive land with the restoration of degraded areas. Forests are a major land use/cover that covers about 30 per cent of the land on Earth and thus hold great potential to help not only achieve LDN but also make Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) a reality. This Research Topic will focus on forest management and restoration for achieving...
Systems Analysis in Forest Resources
The 2003 symposium of systems analysis in forest resources brought together researchers and practitioners who apply methods of optimization, simulation, management science, and systems analysis to forestry problems. This was the 10th symposium in the series, with previous conferences held in 1975, 1985, 1988, 1991, 1993, 1994, 1997, 2000, and 2002. The forty-two papers in these proceedings are organized into five application areas: (1) sustainability, criteria and indicators, and assessment; (2) techniques and decision support for forest planning; (3) forest assessment and planning case studies; (4) fire suppression, fire planning, and fuels management; (5) harvest scheduling; and (6) mill supply and forest product markets.
