  Darius I, more commonly known as Darius the Great, reigned as the third King of Kings of the Achaemenid Empire from 522 BCE until his death in 486 BCE. Under his rule, the empire reached its zenith, encompassing vast territories across Western Asia, parts of the Balkans (including Thrace, Macedonia, and Paeonia), the Caucasus, the Black Sea's coastal regions, Central Asia, the Indus Valley in the east, and portions of North and Northeast Africa, such as Egypt (Mudrâya), eastern Libya, and coastal Sudan. His reign marked a critical period of expansion and consolidation for the Persian Empire. 
  Darius ascended to power through a complex and controversial process. He orchestrated the assassination of Bardiya, the rightful heir to the throne, whom he claimed to be an impostor named Gaumata. Once in power, Darius turned his attention to strengthening and expanding the empire. One of the defining episodes of his reign was his campaign against Greece. This effort aimed to punish Athens and Eretria for their involvement in the Ionian Revolt. Although his forces suffered a significant defeat at the Battle of Marathon, Darius achieved notable victories elsewhere. He successfully reasserted Persian control over Thrace, annexed Macedon, and subjugated the Cyclades and the island of Naxos. His campaign also saw the destruction of Eretria, a Greek city.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Retirement homes have long been presented as safe, comfortable spaces where the elderly can receive the care and attention they need. Advertisements and brochures paint a picture of vibrant communities where seniors enjoy social engagement, personalized assistance, and a high quality of life. However, the reality is often far different from the promises made by these facilities. Beneath the polished marketing lies a world filled with hidden fees, chronic understaffing, cases of neglect, and, in some instances, outright abuse. Families who entrust their loved ones to these institutions frequently find themselves disillusioned and powerless when the level of care does not meet expectations.  
    
  As the global population ages, the demand for elderly care continues to rise. Many families struggle to provide adequate care for aging relatives due to financial constraints, work obligations, or a lack of medical expertise. This increasing need has turned the elder care industry into a multi-billion-dollar business, where profit often takes precedence over patient well-being. While some retirement homes genuinely strive to offer excellent care, far too many are plagued by systemic issues that compromise residents’ safety and dignity. Reports of malnutrition, unsanitary conditions, and inadequate medical supervision are disturbingly common, highlighting the urgent need for greater oversight and reform.  
    
  One of the biggest misconceptions about retirement homes is that they provide consistent, high-quality care tailored to each resident’s needs. In reality, many facilities operate with skeleton staff, forcing overworked caregivers to juggle multiple responsibilities with little time for individual attention. Underfunding and mismanagement lead to situations where residents’ health deteriorates due to neglect, improper medication administration, and a lack of emotional support.

  In a deeply personal follow-up to his #1 bestseller This is the Fire: What I Say to My Friends about Racism, a modern media iconoclast faces a test of faith—and reveals how such tribulations can make us stronger, as individuals and as a nation. Renowned journalist Don Lemon always had a complicated relationship with God. He cherished the Southern Black church he was raised in, but struggled with the fundamentalist rejection of his right to exist as a gay man—one who wanted to marry his longtime love in a church wedding with all the traditional trimmings. In his work as a reporter, moreover, he saw his fellow Americans losing faith in a higher power, in institutions, and in each other.   Setting out to understand the place that religion has in our lives today, Don turned a journalistic eye on ancient stories and found connections that sparked memories, conversations, and chance encounters. Then, suddenly, his world unraveled: In a blaze of inglorious headlines, Don was ousted from his high-profile network news job and tasked with redefining his role in the shifting media landscape. But through a year of personal changes and professional whiplash, he kept his “eyes on the prize” and ultimately found what he was seeking: grace, within himself and in this nation we call home. Rich with humor and Louisiana realness, I Once Was Lost is a prayer for a country that reflects the multifaceted image of God and a clarion call to those who believe in our common humanity enough to fight for it.

  Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, also known as Srila Prabhupāda, was a prominent spiritual leader and revivalist of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition in early 20th-century India. He was born Bimala Prasad Datt on 6 February 1874 in the town of Jagannath Puri, in the present-day state of Odisha, India. As a child, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati showed great intellectual potential, and he received a thorough education in Sanskrit, philosophy, and theology from his father, a renowned scholar, and Vaishnava monk. After completing his studies, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati became a professor of Sanskrit and philosophy at Calcutta University. 
   
  In 1918, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati founded the Gaudiya Math, a religious institution aimed at reviving and promoting the teachings of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition. He also initiated a series of reforms within the tradition, emphasizing the importance of scriptural study, the necessity of devotional service to Krishna, and the rejection of sectarianism and caste-based discrimination. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati was a prolific writer and scholar who authored numerous books and articles on Vaisnava philosophy and theology. He also trained many disciples, including A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who later founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) and became a major figure in the spread of the Hare Krishna movement in the West. Sarasvati passed away on 1 January 1937, but his legacy continues to inspire and guide followers of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition. He is remembered for his tireless efforts to revive and promote the teachings of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the founder of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition, and for his commitment to spreading the message of devotional service and love of God.

  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.
