Invisible Threat
Dr. Alan Mazer graduated from Harvard Medical School at the age of twenty and started curing rare diseases by age twenty-five. He grew into one of America’s most brilliant scientists, so no one could have foreseen his true intentions. Now a radicalized Muslim, Mazer uses his genius to isolate viruses that attack the nervous system. One “vaccine” kills instead of protecting, stealing the lives of children. In particular, Mazer targets Israelis and Americans in an effort to bring down Western society. Now, skilled Mossad agents, the Joint Terrorist Task Force, and an immunologist from a biotechnology company work together to fight against jihad. They rush to stop Mazer and his team of terrorists, even as unlimited funds roll in from across the globe supporting Mazer’s cause. This team must find this man and stop him before the virus and others spread indiscriminately.
The Impending World Energy Mess
The Impending World Energy Mess will help educate readers about the realities of energy in general and oil in particular. The reader will be able to cut through the smokescreens that various self interests have, and are, promulgating and understand that there are a number of credible studies that clearly demonstrate that world oil production is close to going into decline, which will create long-term world oil shortages. The huge economic impacts associated with impending oil shortages are brought into sober, balanced perspective and readers are given tools to minimize the impending negative impacts on their personal lives. Finally, The Impending World Energy Mess provides a balanced discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of a number of electric power production technologies, and in particular, the inherent weaknesses in solar and renewable technologies. The Impending World Energy Mess provides a practical basis for understanding and personal action. Included in this book is a special Foreword from Dr James Schlesinger - First US Secretary of Energy, Director of Central Intelligence, Secretary of Defense and Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission.
