Book Description
The Watermark Conspiracy: a Trilogy takes the reader on a personal journey of a prominent local politician who makes his mark on the national scene. Jim Coyne attempts to prove a conspiracy of sorts with the IRS, the FBI, the White House, the FAA, a major newspaper, national Republicans, local Democrats, local Republicans, US attorneys, federal judges, and US senators. Watermark test results by the FBI to determine the year of manufacture of paper are withheld from Coyne for twenty-four years, despite the fact that he filed numerous freedom of information requests over that period of time. The response by the federal government was that they do not exist and they cannot be located, when in fact they knew all along the name of the contracted testing company, the individual who did their testing, the president of the company, and the address of the company. Coyne takes us on this watermark quest in order to attempt to prove his innocence. Coyne touches on other areas of his personal life: his experience with the oldest Democratic political machine in the country; escaping from death at the Dupont Plaza fire in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on December 31, 1986 and who he thinks were responsible; his experience in the Baden Baden Casino in Germany; horse racing; life in federal prisons; and finally freedom.

Book Description
The second International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security (ACNS 2004) was sponsored and organized by ICISA (the International Communications and Information Security Association). It was held in Yellow Mountain, China, June 8–11, 2004. The conference proceedings, representing papers from the academic track, are published in this volume of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) of Springer-Verlag. The area of research that ACNS covers has been gaining importance in recent years due to the development of the Internet, which, in turn, implies global exposure of computing resources. Many ?elds of research were covered by the program of this track, presented in this proceedings volume. We feel that the papers herein indeed re?ect the state of the art in security and cryptography research, worldwide. The program committee of the conference received a total of 297 submissions from all over the world, of which 36 submissions were selected for presentation during the academic track. In addition to this track, the conference also hosted a technical/industrial track of presentations that were carefully selected as well. All submissions were reviewed by experts in the relevant areas.

Category : Political Science

Pages : 498
Book Description
America's economy is in shambles . . . Its citizens are terrified and dissatisfied . . . Could it all have been planned by a secret elite one hundred years ago? The New World Order. Hitler referred to it in his diaries. President George H. W. Bush foretold of it in his speeches. Formed by a secretive global elite, the group seeking this new order has taken hold of the nation—and perhaps the world. Its influence pervades every aspect of American society, from the products we buy at the grocery store to the topics of evening news programs. But could it also be true that the New World Order caused one of the greatest financial catastrophes of our time? Bestselling author and legendary conspiracy researcher Jim Marrs has yet again exposed information that the mainstream corporate media has refused to report, unearthing the lies to expose the insidious alliances that make up a secret world. In the explosive The Trillion-Dollar Conspiracy, Marrs digs beneath the media noise surrounding the financial bailouts of 2008 and 2009 while exploring the back rooms and shadowy deals of our nation’s past to craft a frightening history that no one else is brave enough to tell.
