Sinopse

Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and a broadcasting narrator. S. T. Joshi has stated that "his work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writer's except Dunsany's." Though Blackwood wrote a number of horror stories, his most typical work seeks less to frighten than to induce a sense of awe.

    In every era, athletes have pushed the boundaries of what is possible within their sports, but some have gone even further, breaking societal and cultural barriers in ways that extended far beyond the field. These trailblazers were not just pioneers in athletic achievement; they were agents of change who challenged and changed the status quo. 
    One of the most significant ways athletes have broken barriers is by overcoming racial and gender inequalities. The barriers that existed in sports were often a reflection of the larger societal issues of their time. In the early 20th century, racial segregation in professional sports was common. For African American athletes, simply getting the chance to play was an act of defiance. Jackie Robinson's entry into Major League Baseball in 1947, when he became the first African American to play in the MLB, was a defining moment in the fight against racial discrimination in sports. Robinson’s courage on the field changed the landscape of professional sports and helped to dismantle segregation both in athletics and in society. 
    Similarly, gender barriers have been a significant challenge for female athletes. For many years, women were excluded from participating in major competitions, and the sports they were allowed to play were often seen as inferior. However, athletes like Billie Jean King, who defeated Bobby Riggs in the infamous "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match in 1973, helped to elevate women's sports and demonstrate that women were just as capable of excelling at the highest levels. King's victory wasn’t just a win in sports—it was a victory for gender equality and a powerful symbol of the struggle for women's rights.

    In today's world, where Western culture and social media promote the idea of perfection, many people in the Christian community are struggling to find their true identity. This disconnection distances individuals from their genuine selves, God-given purpose, and calling in Christ. 
    Despite this turmoil, Peter L. Morton's life serves as a source of hope for those who feel lost and disconnected from their true selves. Pete is a globally recognized security consultant who had previously served as an intelligence officer in the US Army. 
    His life and career showcase the strength of transformation. Pete's story is not just about his journey from being a disengaged individual to leading troops in perilous combat zones across the world but also about discovering his true identity and calling in Christ. 
    His experiences around the world, which include serving on the front lines as an infantryman and intelligence officer and his influential roles as a security consultant and humanitarian, represent a transformation from a life of complacency to one of purpose and authenticity.

    If you voted for Donald Trump, and you thought he was joking when he said he'd be "A Dictator just for a day" - I bet you're not laughing now. Are you? 
    And when he continues to say he's "thinking" about extending his time in the White house to a third term, do you think he's Still "joking?" 
    Yes, I know the consitution says no President can serve more than two terms. The Consitution also says it's unlawful to send the National Guard and/or the Army into Cities. Ditto, allowing masked federal agents to stop, harass, and detain anyone guilty - of not looking white - Plus sendng them who knows where without due process..Likewise creating Global economic instability - which also raises Americans cost of living.(This is "America First?") This is, and will always be 'Trump first". And nothing says that better than his 200 Million dollar Roman Emperor ballroom. To be built next to, and, of course, dwarfing the white house. 
    Third Trump Term impossible? Think about it - Who builds a Billionaires Ballroom...and leaves? 
    In the last century, the Editor of the Baltimore Sun newspaper H.L. Mencken observed: "Nobody ever 
    went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people." 
    In Brother Trumps "Golden Age" it is America that is 
    "broke."
