Soccer Lions of the Nosce Hostem

By: Charles L. Valenti

My son had the fortune of growing up in Italy as a military dependent. There, he learned the sport of soccer through relationships made with his Italian friends. His book, All-American, reveals how he used his knowledge of American sports on the soccer field in order to lead a team that would put together a streak of ten consecutive years of not losing a single regulation game by more than one goal! And now, this book called Soccer Lions of the Nosce Hostem contains the military intelligence and counterintelligence with regard to strategic and tactical deployment of member of his team. This is the second half of the story in explaining exactly how military philosophies based on actual events were used by his Grover Cleveland soccer team out of Ridgewood, New York City. But beware, the faint of heart. My son is now in possession of this legacy called Soccer Lions of the Nosce Hostem. With it, he can help you understand the crucial knowledge gained from knowing your opponent. We are the last of the lions. We are the ghost and the darkness. Lions do not speak, but they know each others thoughts, and these we will convey. My background with regard to the writing of his book can be traced back to the years of growing up in an environment rich in experience gained from participating in the three basic America sportsbaseball, basketball, and football. Currently, I reside in Long Island with my wife, Leila, and my dogs, Gizmo and Betsy. I have two sons, Ted and Chris, and two grandchildren, Christina and Teddy.

General Practice Series No. 33

By: Britt, Helena,G. C. Miller,J. Henderson,C. Bayram,L. Valenti,C. Harrison,J. Charles,Y. Pan,C. Zhang,A. J. Pollack,J. O'Halloran

The book provides a summary of results from the 15th year of the BEACH program, a continuing national study of general practice activity in Australia. From April 2012 to March 2013, 978 general practitioners recorded details about 97,800 GP-patient encounters, at which patients presented 152,278 reasons for encounter and 152,517 problems were managed. For an 'average' 100 problems managed, GPs recorded: 66 medications (including 54 prescribed, six supplied to the patient and six advised for over-the-counter purchase); 11 procedures; 24 clinical treatments (advice and counselling); six referrals to specialists and three to allied health services; orders for 30 pathology tests and seven imaging tests. A subsample study of more than 31,000 patients suggests prevalence of the following measured risk factors in the attending adult (18 years and over) patient population: obesity - 26 per cent; overweight - 34 per cent; daily smoking - 17 per cent; at-risk alcohol consumption - 27 per cent. One in four people in the attending population had at least two of these risk factors. A companion publication, A Decade of Australian General Practice Activity 2003-04 to 2012-13 is also available.

The Mattis Way of War

An Examination of Operational Art in Task Force 58 and 1st Marine Division

By: U. S. Army Combined Arms Center,Usmc Michael L. Valenti Major

This study examines General James N. Mattis's staffing philosophies, the influence of history on his operational planning and execution, and his general command and leadership philosophies using Task Force 58 as a formative base. A brief look at his time commanding the 1st Marine Division in Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) examines whether his philosophies and concepts evolved or remained consistent. A chapter dedicated to his command philosophies and leadership explores common themes that were present during both periods and their influence on his later generalship. General Mattis is an iconic figure in recent Marine Corps history and is known by many nicknames sucsh as Mad Dog and the Warrior Monk. He gets the latter because of his intense love and study of military history, leadership, and the art of war. He had humble beginnings; born in a small town in the Pacific Northwest at the base of the Columbia River which had deep-rooted agricultural ties and a nuclear industry.
