  Retired and relaxing at the pool on a hot, sunny Texas afternoon was the perfect way to start summer early. Life was perfect. 
  So they thought. 
  Clark and his wife, Jamie, are the proud parents of two adopted girls. Clark is a Christian who became a believer in adulthood. His faith has been his guide and was the foundation of how he and his wife raised the children. 
  Life was perfect. 
  Suddenly, life was not perfect. In fact, Clark and Jamie lived Job’s life from the Old Testament. It seemed as if everything around them was being taken from them. Life was no longer perfect. It was on that hot sunny day in Texas when their youngest daughter was ripped away from their family. Kidnapped! 
  This story is the true account of lies, deceit, delusions, and corruption. The belief in their justice system crumbled. Guilty! Before proven innocent is the new lay of the land. Evil is now disguised as what is called: “Protective Services” … Child Protective Services. 
  This book contains true facts and events that have been carefully checked and documented. Only the names have been changed. 
  Will Clark and Jamie ever get their daughter back? Or will they face more problems after challenging the system? What will happen to a disabled teenager lost in the system? Should Clark and Jamie just be quiet, or should they speak out? When did it become legal to kidnap a child? 
  This big question is: Is it right for them to confront the regime? 
  Life is not always perfect. 
  However, they have a perfect God.

  Until recently, Germany appeared to be a paragon of economic and political success. But recent events – from Germany's dependence on Russian gas to its car industry's delays in the race to electric – have undermined this view.
  In Kaput, Wolfgang Münchau argues that the weaknesses of Germany's economy have, in fact, been brewing for decades. The close connections between the country's industrial and political elite have left Germany technologically behind, over-reliant on authoritarian Russia and China, and with little sign of being able to adapt to the digital realities of the twenty-first century. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the future of Europe's most important economy.

  Roman Innovations - Engineering...

  Roman engineering formed the bedrock upon which the Roman Empire’s power and prosperity were built. The Romans, known for their advanced construction techniques, utilized a deep understanding of engineering principles to create infrastructure that stood the test of time. The strategic use of roads, bridges, and construction materials allowed them to expand and maintain control over their vast empire. Roman innovations not only provided practical solutions to everyday challenges but also played a pivotal role in shaping the empire’s military, economic, and social systems. 
  The Romans’ extensive network of roads was one of the cornerstones of their engineering achievements. Roads connected distant regions of the empire, facilitating trade, communication, and the rapid movement of the Roman military. These roads were engineered with precision, employing layers of different materials to ensure durability and effectiveness in various terrains. The roads, often straight and well-maintained, allowed the Roman legions to travel efficiently and helped bind together the sprawling empire. 
  Roman construction materials were key to their engineering marvels. One of the most significant Roman innovations was the development of concrete, a material that enabled the Romans to build large, durable structures such as aqueducts, bridges, and amphitheaters. Roman concrete, made from a mixture of volcanic ash, lime, and seawater, was stronger and more water-resistant than earlier forms of concrete. This breakthrough allowed for the creation of monumental structures, such as the Colosseum and the Pantheon, that could withstand the test of time and the elements.

  Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba and...

  The Calle Cardenal Herrero in Córdoba is an iconic cobbled street impossible to overlook, for it is home to the Andalusian city's spectacular Mosque-Cathedral. Also known as “La Mezquita,” this one-of-a-kind Moorish and Christian place of worship reels in about 1.5 million visitors each year, most of whom find themselves spellbound by its hypnotic architectural features and the riveting history that has transpired and continues to within the beautifully weathered walls of the dual-church. That said, the Mezquita is far more than a mere tourist attraction - in recent years, the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba has become the crux of a complicated religious conflict resurrected by impassioned worshipers and patriotic locals who fear not only for the future of its legacy, but the preservation of its true history. 
  	It is easy for those on the outside looking in to make hasty judgments about the ongoing dispute, considering the endless amount of information that is uploaded online by the second. The contentious debates surrounding the Mezquita are often products of outdated prejudices, festering distrust, and whitewashing, all of which make it harder for the Mezquita to remain a non-discriminatory space serviceable to and appreciated by everyone today.  
  	The Mezquita del Cristo de la Luz is nowhere near the largest monument in Toledo. The grand Toledo Cathedral, for instance, dwarfs this modest, two-level structure with its height of 146 feet. The simple elegance of the mezquita pales in comparison to the city's stupendous landmarks. Toledo is, after all, home to the mighty stone fortification known as the Alcazar of Toledo, and the breathtaking masonry showpiece that is the Synagogue of Santa Maria la Blanca. Nevertheless, this multicultural mezquita is often hailed as one of the most precious treasures of Toledo, a place that truly embodies the unique, cross-cultural spirit of the city.
