Book Description
In August 1964, a disheveled band of motorcyclists mysteriously appeared in Milwaukee. Over the course of the next decade, the Outlaws Motorcycle Club (OMC) became synonymous with acts of intimidation and violence. In the ruthless world of renegade bikers, the OMC's Milwaukee chapter became known as the "Wrecking Crew." You Gotta Be Dirty: The Outlaws Motorcycle Club in & Around Wisconsin, examines the evolution of outlaw motorcycle clubs in the United States. From 1947 - the early 1960s, the influence of rogue riders - the one-percent of motorcyclists living outside the law - spread from the west coast and in to America's heartland. In Wisconsin, investigators linked members of the Outlaws to at least eleven murders. Four of the innocent persons killed were women and two were elderly. Three children also lost their lives: A fifteen-year-old boy was killed by an explosive device; an infant perished in an arson fire; and a ten-year-old boy was executed vis-a-vis a gunshot to the head. During the tumultuous 1990s, the Outlaws orchestrated a guerrilla-style offensive in a quest to beat back the expansion of the world's largest one-percent motorcycle club - the Hells Angels (HAMC). During this period, the HAMC began courting the Hell's Henchmen Motorcycle Club, a group with chapters in Chicago, Rockford, and South Bend, Indiana. The Hells Angels' bold move into northern Illinois touched-off a seven-year conflict that was exacerbated by beatings, bombings, and shootings. "As a former outlaw biker investigator," wrote author and retired Milwaukee Police Department Detective Larry Powalisz, "I participated in the investigations of several of the incidents documented in this well-researched book. This history of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club shines a bright light on the one-percent motorcycle subculture.""

Book Description
Charlotte Rodgers has always wanted too much. Too much love, too much attention, and had too many big dreams. It was how she ended up abandoning her two daughters, Connie and Reesy to chase after a man and the promise of a dream life. But Charlotte never anticipated how her world would be irrevocably changed. Now, twenty-seven years later, her whole world shifts yet again with a letter from one of her daughters. And the past is about to bust wide open. Reesy has always been obsessed with something. Obsessed with finding her birth mother. Obsessed with her sister's life. Obsessed with her own adopted daughter never finding out that Reesy is really her aunt. With a neglected husband, who is unknowingly drifting further and further away, a sister who is trying to escape her well-meaning clutches, and a daughter becoming more and more curious about her true parentage, finding the mother she always dreamed about seems to be an answered prayer to Reesy. That is until Reesy is brought crashing back to earth to find that her perfect life is in tattered pieces. Connie has always expected too little. Too little from the man she's been living with for years. Too little from her modest jewelry business. And too little from her relationships, or lack thereof, with her daughter, mother and sister. And too little from herself. Until she discovers she is pregnant again and decides that this time she is keeping her baby, sending her life and her relationship into a tailspin. And rediscovering the mother who left them behind is the last thing she wants. Thrown back together again, in a maelstrom of shocking truths, Charlotte, Reesy and Connie will discover on their journey to forgiveness and redemption that you just might have to sin first in order to be saved.

Pages : 0
Book Description
This book provides documentary proof of a CIA double-cross and government cover-up spanning 30+ years thus far, and the history behind all of their criminal acts in an attempt to prevent this scandal from coming to light. With the publication of this book, Thor's children and grandchildren living in the US may finally be able to look people in the eye whenever his name is mentioned, rather than forced to bow their heads in shame as it has been up to now. Thor Holm Hansen has lived a life few people would dare or care to embark upon, including over 40 years with the Outlaws MC both in the US and Europe. Even after winning a $15,000,000 civil suit against the CIA in 2002 for having orchestrated his arrest and conviction, In Absentia, for the alleged possession of 37 gram cocaine in 1981, where he proved that even the judge and prosecutor were part of this conspiracy, confirmed in a ruling by the court of appeals, the district court still refused to vacate the conviction on grounds that evidence obtained in a civil matter cannot be used to attack a criminal conviction And was forced to serve 7 years in federal prison on a bold-faced lie. Heads will roll now! He is also a well-known recording artist in his homeland, Norway, having released a number of records between 1982 and today, where his latest "Hell on Two Wheels-Revisited" has added a couple of recordings he did together with Dr. Hook-Ray Sawyer in 1988, which only recently came to light, being lost for 22 years. See the video on www.youtube.com. He is also a mechanical engineer, with several revolutionary patent-pending innovations, such as his concept for a horizontal launching pad for the space ferry; A high-speed elevator without weights and counter-weights; A belt-drive conversion system for all 4x4 vehicles, and the list goes on and on. Read his incredible life story, including gang wars and assassination attempts against him both in the US and Europe; training mercenaries to remove Baby Doc in Haiti; and the repeated attempts by misguided prosecutors to orchestrate his convictions on everything from rape to First Degree Murder, luckily to no avail, where the refrain from his latest CD says it all; "I've been shot at, I've been shafted, I've been set up by the feds. But with brains and balls, I beat them all. Yet life's been hell, (of a lot of fun) On Two Wheels". Go to his website www.thorehansen.com to order autographed books and CD's.
