  • Naval Intelligence and the Mafia in World War Ii
    NAVAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE MAFIA IN WORLD WAR II By Rear Admiral Tom Brooks, USN (ret) (Author's note: Organized crime along the New York City waterfront during the 1940s and 1950s was usually referred to as "the mob", or "the underworld". The term "Mafia" did not come into general use until a decade or more later. Because "Mafia" is the commonly-used term today, it is used throughout this article. During World War II, many people would not even have known what the term meant). Before launching into the fascinating story of Naval Intelligence and the Mafia, it is necessary to understand a little of how Naval Intelligence was organized and operated prior to and during World War Two (WWII). The attack on Pearl Harbor and Germany's declaration of war found Naval Intelligence scrambling to put in place the infrastructure required to support the war effort. Within the continental United States, the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) was charged with security of ports and naval installations against sabotage, intelligence collection and counterintelligence, security and background investigations, as well as censorship (later moved to a separate organization). These responsibilities were assigned to the District Intelligence Offices (DIOs) of the Naval Districts, where they were executed by the District Intelligence Officers, who reported to the District Commandants as well as to ONI. Fortuitously, ONI had seen that war was coming and, in the mid thirties, began in earnest to build up a corps of reserve officers known as the Naval Intelligence Volunteer Service. Designated Intelligence Volunteer (Specialist), these officers were recruited from the ranks of lawyers, newspapermen, investigators, shipping industry executives, linguists, and other fields which might prove necessary to the Navy in time of war.

  • Holes in Time: the Autobiography of a Gangster Frank J. Costantino
    Holes in Time: The Autobiography of a Gangster Frank J. Costantino © 1979 Library of Congress Catalog Number 79-89370 DEDICATION To Chaplain Max Jones who has the courage to put God first, and the salvation of lost souls as his primary goal. In the day of negative thinking about the role of the prison chaplain, Max Jones stands as a shining example of Christian faith at work behind prison walls. …and to all the staff and directors of Christian Prison Ministries and prison workers everywhere. …and to Dr. Richard Leoffler, Dr. Donald Brown, Curt Bock and Don Horton who believed in me from the very beginning. …and to my wife of 17 years, Cheryl, who went through the whole prison experience with me. FOREWARD Frank was a professional criminal. He deliberately decided to be a thief and a robber. With protection from the underworld, he preyed on the upper world. In eleven years he participated in robberies and thefts totaling eleven million dollars. All this he did with no qualms of conscience. He reasoned that bankers and businessmen stole with their pens. He stole with his guns. He saw no difference. On his first felony conviction he received a sentence of 22 years in prison. There he had plenty of time to think and to reason within himself. The inhumanity that he witnessed demanded that he find out what he wanted to be, a giver or a taker. He reached the conclusion that those who don’t care leave holes in time. His personal encounter with Christ in the office of Chaplain Max Jones settled all the issues.

  • The Politics of Organized Crime SOC-UA 9506 W 3:00 PM-5:45 PM Room: Giardino
    Fall 2019 – The Politics of Organized Crime SOC-UA 9506 W 3:00 PM-5:45 PM Room: Giardino Class Description: What most people know about Italian criminal organizations comes from stereotypical representations in popular culture – films and literature. The analysis of real-world data, such as investigations, proceedings and crime statistics, dismisses many of the accepted myths about Italian mafias over the last decades. The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the definitions of this complex phenomenon by demystifying criminal underworld. This course will examine the organization of mafia groups in Italy, their codes and symbols, their activities both in legal and illegal markets, and their relationship to politics and other social institutions. The Italian case will be compared with those countries where similar groups operate. Comparisons will enable students to disentangle different types of organized crime and to discover patterns and mechanisms of emergence and persistence across countries. The course will include also a review of the policies designed to control organized crime and of the grassroots initiatives to reduce the risk and combat mafia infiltration into local economy and society. Instructor Details: Name: Salvatore Sberna NYUGlobalHome Email Address: [email protected] / [email protected] Office Hours: By appointment only, Wednesdays, 2pm-3pm Villa Ulivi Office Location: Villa Ulivi, Instructors’ Floor Villa Ulivi Phone Number:+39 055 5007 300 Desired Outcomes: On completion of this course, students should: ● Have mastered a basic understanding of organized crime, its origins, growth and persistence; ● Have improved their understanding of how to research questions on crime, and their ability to compare criminal organizations across countries; ● Have improved their ability to think critically about the impact of mafia groups to democracy, society and development; Page 1 of 16 ● Have gained experience with policies and best practices designed to prevent and control organized crime.

My name is Alina Utrata and I will be your chair for this upcoming weekend of drama, intrigue, negotiation and, hopefully, making the world a slightly more economically viable place for the Russian mafia. I am currently a sophomore majoring in History. I first got involved with Model United Nations in my freshman year of high school, and I’ve stuck with it this long because nothing parallels the camaraderie of a MUN team. Together, we’ve suffered through the endless team meetings, position paper deadlines and late nights spent drafting resolutions. Whether I’ve been half-way across the country or just meeting new people at school, I’ve always found MUN’ers who can bond over the shared experience of pretending to be UN delegates for a weekend. For that reason, I have co-opted two of my best friends here at Stanford, Christina Schiciano and Jackie Becker, to compose your dias. Christina is a sophomore practically fluent in Arabic; she is currently planning to pursue her studies on the Middle East. Jackie is a sophomore, also undeclared; she is interested in international politics and cultural norms, and involved in many drama and theatre productions on campus.

  • Penn State Abington
    PENN STATE ABINGTON DIVERSITY UPDATE REPORT 2001-2004 Submitted On Behalf Of THE ABINGTON COLLEGE COMMUNITY Diversity Plan Committee Members Hannah Kliger Associate Dean Bryan Polk Lecturer, English Carla Chamberlin Quinlisk Assistant Professor, Speech Communication Patricia Rizzolo, Co-Chair Coordinator, Planning and Assessment José Rodriguez Coordinator, Intercultural Affairs Karen Wiley Sandler, Co-Chair Dean and Campus Executive Officer Gale Siegel Senior Director, Student Affairs Paula Smith Reference Librarian Tramble Turner Associate Professor, English PENN STATE ABINGTON FRAMEWORK FOR FOSTERING DIVERSITY: UPDATE ON PROGRESS Background Penn State Abington is the University’s most urban and most diverse campus college. The college is located within three miles of the Philadelphia city limits and ten miles from downtown Philadelphia and serves three counties: Bucks County, Montgomery County, Philadelphia County. Approximately 43% of our students come to us from Philadelphia. The college’s student population stays stable at about 3200 students; of these, 29% indicate (Fall 2003) minority status. According to the University data, ethnicity at Penn State Abington has increased from 1997 through Fall 2002 from 21% to 25%; Fall 2003 shows yet another increase. We believe that these numbers are very likely under-reported because our off-campus credit students (particularly at Frankford Hospital School of Nursing: about 200 per year) are approximately 50% minority, but these students often tend not to complete the data forms. Other underrepresented populations, not tallied by university data, are also prominent on our campus, including Russian and East European populations. Other aspects of our college’s diversity include: adult students, older students (our oldest graduate was in his 80’s), single mothers, recent immigrants, disabled students, and gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered students.

  • The Italian Experience in the Management, Use and Disposal of Frozen, Seized and Confiscated Assets
    CAC/COSP/WG.2/2014/CRP.3 2 September 2014 English only Open-ended Intergovernmental Working Group on Asset Recovery Eighth meeting Vienna, 11-12 September 2014 The Italian experience in the management, use and disposal of frozen, seized and confiscated assets V.14-05600 (E) The Italian experience in the management, use and disposal of frozen, seized and confiscated assets In early 2014, the Region of Calabria, Italy, started to work with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in the field of management, use and disposal of seized and confiscated assets. This initiative, jointly undertaken by UNODC and the Region of Calabria, seeks to identify good practices with a view to developing relevant tools and guidelines on the issue of administration of seized and confiscated assets. In the context of the joint initiative by UNODC and the Region of Calabria, a first Expert Group Meeting took place from 2 to 4 April 2014 in Reggio Calabria, Italy, involving approximately 80 experts from approximately 35 countries, agencies and organizations with experience and expertise in the area of the management, use and disposal of frozen, seized and confiscated assets. The meeting provided a platform for dialogue among practitioners involved in the tracing and seizing of assets, managing assets post‐seizure, as well as experts and practitioners in the areas of disposal of assets, the use by governments of seized assets and international cooperation in the management of seized assets. Three parallel focus groups were held during the meeting to advance the work and thinking of the international community in the areas of: (i) international cooperation in identifying, seizing and confiscating criminal assets, particularly those of Mafia‐based criminal organization; (ii) domestic management, use and disposal of seized and confiscated assets; and (iii) management of returned assets in asset recovery cases.
