Sinossi

Kryptos Cipher explores the captivating mystery of the encrypted sculpture at CIA headquarters, created by artist Jim Sanborn. Since its installation in 1990, this four-part cipher has challenged intelligence experts, mathematicians, and amateur codebreakers alike. The book delves into the intersection of art, technology, and Cold War history, revealing the intricate layers of cryptography and the unwavering determination to unlock the sculpture's final, elusive message. While some sections have been solved, revealing intriguing secrets, the "K4" section remains an enigma, fueling ongoing decryption efforts. This book presents a comprehensive account of the Kryptos puzzle by examining its historical context, the fundamentals of cryptography, and the collaborative attempts to crack the code. Drawing upon interviews with Sanborn, analyses of intelligence agency information, and cryptographic expertise, the book avoids technical jargon. It progresses by dissecting each of the four sections of the cipher, showcasing the evolution of cryptographic techniques. The book highlights how the Kryptos Cipher serves as a case study in secure communication and the enduring allure of the unknown.

    Robert George Seale (born October 22, 1936) is an African American revolutionary, political activist and author. Seale is widely known for co-founding the Marxist–Leninist and black power political organization the Black Panther Party (originally called the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense) with fellow activist Huey P. Newton to monitor police activities and challenge police brutality in black communities, first in Oakland, California, and later in cities throughout the United States. Seale was also one of the “Chicago Eight” defendants, charged by the US government with conspiracy charges related to anti-Vietnam War protests in Chicago during the 1968 Democratic National Convention, later called the “Chicago seven” when Seale's case was severed from the other defendants. After which, the government declined to retry Seale on the conspiracy charges, and he was never convicted in the case.

    Over the last 2,000 years, ambitious men have dreamed of forging vast empires and attaining eternal glory in battle, but of all the conquerors who took steps toward such dreams, none were ever as successful as antiquity’s first great conqueror. Leaders of the 20th century hoped to rival Napoleon’s accomplishments, while Napoleon aimed to emulate the accomplishments of Julius Caesar. But Caesar himself found inspiration in Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.), the Macedonian King who managed to stretch an empire from Greece to the Himalayas in Asia at just 30 years old. It took less than 15 years for Alexander to conquer much of the known world. Although his empire was quickly divided, his legacy only grew, and Alexander became the stuff of legends even in his own time.  
    	In the history of war, only a select few men always make the list of greatest generals. Napoleon. Caesar. Alexander. They are always joined by Hannibal, who has the distinction of being the only man who nearly brought Rome to its knees before its decline almost 700 years later. Rome never suffered a more horrifying defeat in its history than at Cannae, and indeed, Hannibal nearly rewrote the course of Western history during the Second Punic War. Even today there remains great debate on just how he accomplished his masterful invasion of Italy across the Alps. Since his army included war elephants, historians still argue over exactly where and how he crossed over 2,000 years after he managed that incredible feat.  
    	The ultimate conqueror, statesman, dictator, visionary, and opportunist, during his time in power Caesar expanded the borders of Rome to almost twice their previous size, revolutionized the infrastructure of the Roman state, and destroyed the Roman Republic for good, leaving a line of emperors in its place. His legacy is so strong that his name has become, in many languages, synonymous with power.

    It's hard for everyone when parents split up―but the end of living together doesn't need to mean the end of a functional family. Part of the reason divorces are so traumatic for the kids involved is because of our child custody system, which sets everyone up for failure. Throughout the country, the default arrangement is for Mom to get majority time with the kids (and most of the responsibility of caring for them), for Dad to become an occasional visitor (and perhaps saddled with massive child support payments), and for the kids to lose the stability, structure, and confidence of knowing they have two equally committed, loving parents. But it doesn't have to be this way! 
     
    In The 50/50 Solution, creator of the Wealthy Single Mommy community Emma Johnson showcases the robust research proving that, in the vast majority of cases, equal timesharing is the best outcome for everyone in a family where the adults no longer live together. The 50/50 Solution will show you that equal parenting time leads to: better physical, emotional, and mental health for children of divorce; higher career earnings for single mothers; fathers who are more engaged and whose rights as parents are preserved; far less parental and legal conflict; and a progressive, forward-thinking cultural norm that promotes gender and racial equality for all families, regardless of their configuration.

    Why do we search for balance in our lives? The answer is simple, and nearly all of us know it. Some of us simply don't want to accept the truth, while some of us want to find solutions for the imbalance in our lives. The importance of balance cannot be undermined, considering that it brings with its calmness, peace, happiness, and the strength to face any kind of diversity. With balance come increased productivity and efficiency and untold happiness and joy.  
    A balanced person is physically, emotionally, and mentally healthy and lives a meaningful and contented life, regardless of the challenges he or she faces. Feelings of imbalance include mental, emotional, and physical sickness, fear, unease, discomforts of all kinds, and suffering.  
    Signs of Mental Balance  
    The answers to the following questions will help you understand if you have mental balance and stability: 
    Do you see the world and yourself clearly without the truth being warped in mire and ambiguity? 
    Do you feel swept away by the veils that cover the truths of your life? 
    Do you attempt to see the truth as it is instead of trying to explain it away with some vague explanations just to make it agree with your perception?  
    Do you deliberately use your mind as a sense organ or something that you would simply brush as an appendage that comes in the way of your life?

    From the winner of The President Joseph R. Biden Lifetime Achievement Award, a spiritual guide to restoring yourself from racial trauma and committing to the long work of dismantling racism. 
     
     
     
    In her work as executive director of the Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing, Meeks has fought tirelessly to shed light on racism and provide tools and experiences to enable faith communities to work to combat it. In this new book, she shares highlights and insights from her journey and offers a much-needed meditative guide for the weary and frustrated. By looking inward and at each other clearly, she argues, good people of all backgrounds can forge a long term and individual path to making a difference. With personal stories and thoughtful direction, she takes the listener on the trajectory from self-awareness to recognition of the past to a new and individual way forward. 
     
     
     
    Meditation topics include how to work through fear and rage, how stories can help heal, honoring your ancestors while looking toward the future, what it really means to love one another, and the meaning of social justice.
