Peter Thomas Senese commented, “CHASING THE CYCLONE is story many readers are connecting with. Unquestionably, it is a legal thriller with many twists and subplots that move the reader into a complex storyline that would have been extremely difficult to replicate if it were not for my own experiences of having a child taken to the other side of the world. Readers quickly descend into the dark, bizarre, and unthinkable world of international child abduction; however, they are also taken into a world of committed love and joy in the form of a father’s unending search for his son despite the most bizarre and dangerous obstacles placed in his way. Together, readers and critics appear to be truly enjoying CHASING THE CYCLONE.”

Peter Thomas Senese’s new book release CHASING THE CYCLONE has caused more than a handful of critics and readers to develop deeply frustrating and angry emotions that they have actually thrown or wanted to throw the author’s riveting international legal thriller or their e-book reader against a wall, a door, or through a window. Ordinarily, an author would not have any desire to have a reader’s feelings erupt to the point of physical action, unless of course, the storyline is intended to touch the reader’s nerve in such a way that they feel the need to physically act.
Inspired by the best-selling author’s own experiences racing into the storms of child abduction, Amazon’s critics have called “Chasing The Cyclone” ‘a Call-To-Arms against this worldwide epidemic and Peter Thomas Senese as a master storyteller’.
Amazon Hall of Fame book reviewer Daniel Jolley commented, “Chasing The Cyclone” isn’t just a powerful novel; it’s a call to arms against a growing epidemic that is tearing lives apart behind the headlines… “Chasing The Cyclone” is much more than just a superb, can’t-put-down novel, though; it is a book with a purpose… Thomas has become an outspoken advocate on this issue, and ‘Chasing The Cyclone’ makes for a clear and profoundly effective call to action. I would go so far as to encourage every loving parent to read this book, as the bond between this father and son is one to be emulated…”
Amazon Hall of Fame book reviewer Harriett Klausner added, . . . “This is an exciting cautionary thriller that grips readers from the onset . . . “Chasing The Cyclone” will shake the audience, this exciting cautionary thriller grips readers from the onset…”
Dr. Grady Harp, a highly respected Amazon Hall Of Fame book reviewer said, “Peter Thomas Senese now opens the windows on the magnitude of these tragedies in his excellent “Chasing The Cyclone”… As if the fast paced energy of this story weren’t enough to satisfy the reader, Peter Thomas Senese demonstrates his quality as a writer of distinction on many levels… this impossible to put down book…”
Additionally, Amazon Top Book Reviewer Shelley Gammon added, “Chasing the Cyclone” is the second book I’ve read by Peter Thomas Senese, and like “The Den of the Assassin,” it’s a real page turner… This was a book I could not put down. Thomas has a gift in writing a compelling novel that not only keeps the reader engaged, but educates as well.”

New Documents Filed by Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik in Lawsuit Allege MGM Tricked Investors into Purchasing Units in the MGM Signature Suites
Las Vegas (PRWEB) February 07, 2012
On February 3, 2012, the law firms of Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik and Gerard & Associates filed a second amended complaint in arbitration alleging that MGM defrauded investors into purchasing units in the MGM Signature Suites at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Sussex v. Turnberry/MGM, Case No. 1115185809 is currently pending in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada along with Abraham v. Turnberry/MGM, Case No. 2:11-CV-01007.
The new documents filed allege MGM failed to act in good faith and misled the purchasers to believe that by the terms of the Purchase Agreement they would be buying units that were part of a democratically run Common-Interest Community where the unit owners had a say in the costs and expenses they would be charged and the use of the pool area. Allegedly, MGM has denied the purchasers these unique real property rights that should be specifically enforceable as part of the Purchase Agreement. The complaint further states MGM relied on the CC&Rs which gave MGM the right to operate the Common-Interest Community as an autocracy with absolute control over the budget, costs, expenses, common area revenues and use of the pool area. The recently filed complaint further proffers that as a result the unit owners have been ordered to pay all the cost of the Common-Interest Community including taxes and receive none of the benefits from the income derived therefrom. The complaint asks the arbitrator to declare in accordance with Nevada law that the CC&Rs are unenforceable as unconscionable and enjoin further enforcement of the CC&Rs in a manner inconsistent with the terms contained in the four corners of the Purchase Agreement.
Specifically, the complaint seeks an accounting and damages as to past acts and to enjoin any further operation of the “Wet Republic” without the affirmative vote of a majority of the unit owners, and the removal of parts of the “Wet Republic” constructed on the hotel’s easement. The complaint alleges noise from the music at the “Wet Republic” is so loud that the windows of the units rattle and the floors shake further driving down room rates.
The new complaint also charges that when members of the MGM sales force discovered that the projected 60/40 revenue split of profits derived from the investment in favor of unit owners, that they were telling the unit owners they would receive, was more like 30/70 in favor of MGM, the sales force was told by MGM not to tell anyone the true facts.
For more information, visit the MGM Signature lawsuit website or call (866) 811-2122.
The employment lawyers at Blumenthal, Nordrehaug & Bhowmik focus on representing employees, consumers and investors on a contingency fee basis in actions against public companies for unlawful, unfair and deceptive business practices and policies. For a free consultation call (800) 568-8020.

GGO Introduces ‘Review-Ready’ Fixed-Fee ESI Processing for E-Discovery, Breaking the Industry’s GB-based Pricing Tradition
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) January 27, 2012
Gallivan, Gallivan and O’Melia (GGO, LLC), the e-discovery experts driving the move toward accessible, affordable e-discovery solutions, announced today a new fixed-fee, rapid response ESI processing service. The Review-Ready service allows law firms and e-discovery teams to eliminate the budget uncertainty inherent in volume-based pricing, and realize savings of 50% or more over the typical per-GB fees charged by conventional providers.
The Review-Ready process is all-inclusive, from receipt of collected data to delivery of a complete load file in a format ready for immediate loading to any document review platform. Complete processing includes:
Inspect: Initial assessment of collected data
Process: normalize and organize over 500 types of collected data
De-NIST: Remove system, OS and other non-data content
Triage: Resolve challenges posed by encrypted, password protected or corrupt files
Index: Organizes content for optimal search in the review phase
Filter: Apply search terms and filters, report results
Load File: compatible with any e-discovery review application
Review-Ready fixed fee pricing is based on the size of the collection. A forensically sound collection of 1-10 GB of ESI is processed at a fixed fee of $ 1000. A larger collection, ranging from 10 to 100 GB, carries a fixed fee of $ 2000, or as little as $ 20 per GB. A conventional provider charging volume-based fee of $ 200 per GB would bill $ 20,000 for the same 100 GB, or ten times the cost of the fixed-fee service provided by GGO.
Processing is handled on the Digital WarRoom platform, a high-performance engine designed and refined by the GGO team over 12 years of e-discovery consulting and hosting for law firm and corporate clients. “We own the technology, so we can compete effectively at prices lower than most vendors can afford to offer”, said Bill Gallivan, managing director at GGO. “Beyond providing excellent service, our mission at GGO is to challenge the industry to think differently about value and efficiency in delivery of services. High quality e-discovery solutions should be accessible, affordable, and easy to use for all legal professionals.”
The new Review-Ready service is available now through all GGO operations centers across North America.
