  A complete history of naval combat in the Mediterranean and North African campaigns throughout WWII. 
   
  In the early summer of 1940, the Kingdom of Italy joined with Nazi Germany by challenging Britain for dominance in the Mediterranean region. With France on the verge of collapse and Britain facing imminent invasion, the Italians seized upon a rare opportunity to re-establish control. Heavily outnumbered, the British Mediterranean Fleet and its ground and air forces braced for a long and bloody conflict. Blue Water War tells the story of this epic struggle.  
   
  The fighting across the Mediterranean and Middle East was waged at differing times against the combined forces of Italy, Germany and Vichy France over a wide area stretching from the coastal waters of Southern Europe to Madagascar and from Africa’s Atlantic coast to the Persian Gulf.  
   
  Utilizing a variety of weapons including warships, submarines, and aircraft along with sizable merchant fleets, the British and their subsequent American partners maintained vital lines of communication, conducted numerous amphibious landings, interdicted Axis supply activities and eventually eliminated Axis maritime power within the theater. In turn, these actions facilitated multiple Allied victories that helped secure the defeat of the European Axis.

  The events that led to one of the most infamous moments in early American history began with a series of escalating tensions between two towering figures of the revolutionary generation. At the heart of this saga were Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, whose personal and political differences culminated in a duel that would forever change the course of their lives and the nation. The rivalry between these men had been simmering beneath the surface for years, driven by conflicting visions of America’s future and a deeply personal sense of pride and honor. As the nation struggled to define itself, the intensity of political passions mirrored the violence that would erupt on a fateful morning along the banks of the Hudson River. 
  Hamilton, a key architect in establishing the new republic’s financial system and a fervent advocate for a strong central government, had found himself at odds with the more cautious and opportunistic Burr. Their interactions were marked by fiery debates and personal insults, each encounter stoking the flames of discord. This tension reached its climax when a series of statements and challenges, amplified by the politically charged atmosphere of the day, left little room for reconciliation. In the culture of honor that prevailed at the time, retreating or appearing weak was not an option, and thus the challenge to a duel was seen as an unavoidable, albeit tragic, path to vindication. 
  On that brisk morning, amid a landscape still haunted by the memories of revolution and laden with the promise of a new beginning, both men prepared to face each other under strict codes of conduct. The duel was not just a matter of personal honor; it was emblematic of the turbulent and often dangerous era in which the young nation was emerging.

  Reading the Times - A Literary...

  "Reading the morning newspaper is the realist's morning prayer."—G. W. F. Hegel 
  Whenever we reach for our phones or scan a newspaper to get "caught up," we are being not merely informed but also formed. News consumption can shape our sense of belonging, how we judge the value of our lives, and even how our brains function. Christians mustn't let the news replace prayer as Hegel envisioned, but neither should we simply discard the daily feed. We need a better understanding of what the news is for and how to read it well. 
  Jeffrey Bilbro invites readers to take a step back and gain some theological and historical perspective on the nature and very purpose of news. In Reading the Times he reflects on how we pay attention, how we discern the nature of time and history, and how we form communities through what we read and discuss. Drawing on writers from Thoreau and Dante to Merton and Berry, along with activist-journalists such as Frederick Douglass and Dorothy Day, Bilbro offers an alternative vision of the rhythms of life, one in which we understand our times in light of what is timeless. Throughout, he suggests practices to counteract common maladies tied to media consumption in order to cultivate healthier ways of reading and being. 
  When the news sets itself up as the light of the world, it usurps the role of the living Word. But when it helps us attend together to the work of Christ—down through history and within our daily contexts—it can play a vital part in enabling us to love our neighbors. Reading the Times is a refreshing and humane call to put the news in its place.

  An MDLG and ABDL themed love story for the age play fetishist. 
  Please note: This book contains content only appropriate for individuals interested in the MDLG subgroup of BDSM. It includes kink related themes, lactation, sex with a strap on, psychological power-play both sexual and non-sexual, sub-training in deep throating and re-conditioning using domination techniques with little space as a reward, and punishment by flogging and forced orgasms utilizing a sex dungeon. Mild degradation and a fast-moving relationship that explores when a limit is pushed too far. 
  The story is a work of fiction, and although based on multiple personal experiences, Tina Moore does not assume to speak for the entire community. She also believes that the kink is as broad and diverse as the consenting adults who engage in it, and thus there is not a ‘correct’ way to be a consenting adult involved in age play and/or regression. 
  Tina Moore would like to thank all her loyal, supportive, and loving fans. She wishes you every happiness and success and hopes that you stay safe, calm, and healthy.
