The current pharmacy doctorate curriculum is rigorous. Pharmacists must adopt a mantra of life long learning. There is another educational process four students at Butler University investigated during their final year of school: what do pharmacists learn about themselves and their profession after pharmacy school? In this book, students gave pharmacy leaders in academia, clinical practice, community practice, executive management, and government a simple assignment: write a letter to yourself from present day to yourself at graduation from pharmacy school discussing the major lessons you learned after pharmacy school about yourself and your profession. The project also provided students the opportunity to learn lessons of their own through their project journey in compiling this book.

Find out, beyond a failed assassination, how their love affair evolved into a First-Couple divorce and re-marriage .until death they do not part. "MARY, MARY and JFK" is a two-part book, under one cover.

Retired doctor of physics Frank Somers, who is credited with eight rape-murders to date within Orange County under the DA-assigned moniker Checkmate, laughs as he turns away from his home office computer after studying the application requirements for the Orange County Grand Jury. He loudly mocks the county’s highly touted vetting process. “Fingerprints required . . . of course, of course. But no DNA swab. What a fucking joke.” The chink in the application process enables Dr. Somers to be selected for a twelve-month grand jury service where he regularly continues his killings as Checkmate within Orange County. He cleverly uses his jury colleagues and district attorney to partially exercise his psychopathic taunting of authorities. This book is primarily set within Orange County as well as Florida, Mexico, and Jamaica.

The Reagan-Bush Just Say No drug prevention program has plummeted Panamanian General Manuel Noriegas CIA shared drug profits to a personal threatening low. The dictator launches an operation to establish a northern drug trafficking route, exclusive of the CIA, in order to provide funds necessary to sustain his military dictatorship. Mike Majors, an American street wise engineering consultant, is coerced into the operation due to his made to order involvement on a petroleum project triangulating Louisianas Cajun country, Alaskas Prudhoe Bay, and Panama. Panamanian intelligence agent Evangelista Alcantara, a former Miss Panama, is charged with sexually entrapping Majors, happily married with three children, into Tundras web. Between Majors, the CIA, the Vatican, the White House boiler-room, and, surprisingly Evangelista, Noriega and Bush get more than they bargained for.
