To Protect and Serve

How to Fix America's Police

By: Norm Stamper

The police in America belong to the people -- not the other way around. Yet millions of Americans experience their cops as racist, brutal, and trigger-happy: an overly aggressive, militarized enemy of the people. For their part, today's officers feel they are under siege -- misunderstood, unfairly criticized, and scapegoated for society's ills. Is there a fix? Former Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper believes there is. Policing is in crisis. The last decade has witnessed a vast increase in police aggression, misconduct, and militarization, along with a corresponding reduction in transparency and accountability. It is not just noticeable in African American and other minority communities -- where there have been a series of high-profile tragedies -- but in towns and cities across the country. Racism -- from raw, individualized versions to insidious systemic examples -- appears to be on the rise in our police departments. Overall, our police officers have grown more and more alienated from the people they've been hired to serve. In To Protect and Serve, Stamper delivers a revolutionary new model for American law enforcement: the community-based police department. It calls for fundamental changes in the federal government's role in local policing as well as citizen participation in all aspects of police operations: policymaking, program development, crime fighting and service delivery, entry-level and ongoing education and training, oversight of police conduct, and -- especially relevant to today's challenges -- joint community-police crisis management. Nothing will ever change until the system itself is radically restructured, and here Stamper shows us how.

Based on a True Story

Not a Memoir

By: Norm Macdonald

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Driving, wild and hilarious” (The Washington Post), here is the incredible “memoir” of the legendary actor, gambler, raconteur, and Saturday Night Live veteran. When Norm Macdonald, one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time, was approached to write a celebrity memoir, he flatly refused, calling the genre “one step below instruction manuals.” Norm then promptly took a two-year hiatus from stand-up comedy to live on a farm in northern Canada. When he emerged he had under his arm a manuscript, a genre-smashing book about comedy, tragedy, love, loss, war, and redemption. When asked if this was the celebrity memoir, Norm replied, “Call it anything you damn like.”

The Joseph Project

By: Rev. Norm Stewart

The Joseph Project

By: Rev. Norm Stewart

The Joseph Project provides the key to confronting and overcoming life's challenges, adversities, and obstacles. It is the biblical formula for succeeding in every area of life and relationships, both personal and spiritual. It presents the story of a young boy rising from the very pit of rejection, abandonment, slavery, and imprisonment to the pinnacle of success. In so doing, it highlights the virtues of his character--his humility, his positive attitude, his integrity, and his forgiving spirit. These virtues, grounded in his firm faith in God and his willingness to risk his life to defend them, were the hallmark of his success. This faith not only enabled him to overcome bitterness and conquer immorality but elevated him from prison to the governor's mansion of a country he entered as a slave. Through his wisdom and extraordinary courage, he prepared Egypt to avert the effects of the worst economic disaster to threaten the world at that time. The Joseph Project presents a biblical blueprint for success. This is based on the simple formula that what God did for Joseph, He wants to do for anyone willing to follow the same principles. Through this project, you will learn the secret of true prosperity. That, contrary to popular belief, true prosperity is often not measured by how much wealth you own or how many degrees you have earned but by having a right relationship with God. Joseph was regarded as a prosperous man by his masters even while he was a slave and a prisoner. By adapting the strategies he employed, you will not only succeed in your endeavors, but the problems you encounter that would threaten to delay or deny your success will prove to be only stepping stones on your path to real success. By demonstrating how Joseph's problems became stepping stones on his journey to the governorship of Egypt, The Joseph Project provides a scriptural blueprint that is applicable to most problems we face today. Even when those things seem to harm us, God has a purpose for allowing them. Be assured if He allows it, it is for our good, and He will go through it with us. He was with Joseph as a slave and as a prisoner. This project also inspires us to persevere and never abandon our hopes and dreams regardless of the circumstances we may face. We have the confidence that just as He did for Joseph, He will do for us and that He will make a way when there seems to be no way.

Rene, el Tigre, & Me

Up Close & Personal - Spanish Television in America

By: Norm Leventhal

Rene, el Tigre, & Me By: Norm Leventhal After 50 years of private practice in the field of communications law, Norm Leventhal has decided to write the story of how he was fortunate enough to meet the two principal forces in the birth, growth, and maturity of Spanish language television in America and how his law career became thoroughly intertwined with these two giants of Spanish media for more than four decades. It is a story of the development of Spanish language television in the United States – its modest beginnings, the sacrifices made by its pioneers, its growth over the last five decades, and what it took – in financial, business, artistic, and legal talent – to achieve this newfound success. It is also, more importantly, a story of the lessons that the author learned, or should have learned, in his role as counsel to the major players in this achievement. It recounts the highpoints of that effort, as well as the failure in temperament and character that played a part in the mistakes and missteps in judgment that were made in the course of those labors. There are many twists, turns, and unexpected events. Read the entirety of this book and learn something new.

Why the Bottom Line Isn't!

How to Build Value Through People and Organization

By: Dave Ulrich,Norm Smallwood

Offers a broad view of leadership and shareholder value based on multiple business disciplines In Why the Bottom Line Isn't! authors Dave Ulrich and Norm Smallwood argue that sustainable shareholder value comes increasingly from assets not accounted for on an organization's balance sheet. These assets include a company's reputation, its ability to attract talent, and its ability to react quickly to new opportunities in the marketplace. Why the Bottom Line Isn't! harnesses research from a number of disciplines including human resources, finance, and leadership to establish a hierarchy of such intangibles. The authors extrapolate from these intangibles to establish leadership tools that will help create sustainable shareholder value. The book offers a broad, expansive perspective on leadership while eschewing convoluted theory for concrete practice. Dave Ulrich, Ph.D., (DOU@UMICH.EDU) has been listed by BusinessWeek as the top "guru" in management education. He has co-authored 10 books and over 100 articles, serves on the Board of Directors of Herman Miller, and has consulted with over half of the Fortune 200 companies. He is currently on professional leave as Professor at the University of Michigan to serve as Mission President for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Montreal. Norm Smallwood (nsmallwood@rbl.net) is co-founder of Results-Based Leadership (www.rbl.net), which provides education and consulting services based on this book as well as the ideas in Results-Based Leadership: How Leaders Build the Business and Improve the Bottom Line, which he co-authored with Ulrich. He has led leadership development, business strategy, organization capability, change management, and HR projects for a wide variety of clients spanning multiple industries.

Traditional Anglo-American Folk Music

An Annotated Discography of Published Sound Recordings

By: Norm Cohen

Originally published in 1994. Filling a gap in the sound recordings of traditional Anglo-American folk music this volume covers both vocal and instrumental material from the 1920s to the 1990s. The listings have also been limited to performers native to the tradition rather than "revival" performers. The album selection is grouped into field recordings and commercial (pre-1942) recordings, with subdivisions into individual recordings or anthologies. The discography not only reflects its author’s in-depth knowledge of Anglo-American folk music’s historical development but charts a valuable step forward in the evaluation, as well as select lissting, of available sound recordings.

Oceano

By: Linda Austin,Norm Hammond

Oceano is a California beach town between San Francisco and Los Angeles. Originally part of the Rancho El Pismo Mexican land grant of 1840, Oceano first appeared as a place name on a map in 1893 and was promoted as a beach resort soon after the Southern Pacific Railroad arrived in 1895. While most of these promotions failed during the Great Depression, the railroad depot continued as a shipping point for the areas agriculture. During this time, Oceano became a point of entry for the Dunites, a group of artists, writers, and poets who once lived in the sand dunes south of town. Today Oceano is still the primary access and gateway to its state park beach and large sand dune complex. Many people come to enjoy the experience of driving on the beach, camping there, and venturing into the dunes on foot or by vehicle.
