  Russian Folk Fairy Tales is a wonderful collection of the most famous Russian fairy tales. The "Russian skazki" ("skazatz" means to tell) are the mass of folk-tales distributed widely throughout all the Russias. Handed down, by constant repetition, from generation to generation, a possession common to peasant's hut and Prince's palace from a time when history did not exist, they are to-day, from Archangel to the Black Sea, and from Siberia to the Baltic, almost as much a part of the life of the people as the language itself.

  GAP – Fulfill the Greatest Adventure Possible 
  Life is full of gaps—moments of emptiness, uncertainty, and searching. But what if these gaps are not failures, but invitations? Invitations to cross into deeper meaning, higher purpose, and ultimately the *Greatest Adventure Possible*. 
  In this inspiring book, Yaśomatīnandana Dāsa shares his personal journey from restless world traveler to dedicated spiritual seeker. Drawing from lived experience, the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad-Gītā, and the guidance of his spiritual masters, he explores life’s biggest questions: 
  * Who am I beyond the body? 
  * What happens at death? 
  * How can I live with joy, meaning, and purpose? 
  Through heartfelt reflections, practical exercises, and meditations, the reader is guided from uncertainty to clarity, from material distractions to spiritual fulfillment. Topics include: 
  * Facing death as a change of service 
  * Making the best of a bad bargain in material life 
  * Awakening to the astonishing reality of the soul 
  * Daily practices in bhakti-yoga 
  * The power of spiritual association (saṅgha) 
  * Overcoming doubts and obstacles 
  * Travel as pilgrimage and transformation 
  Whether you are new to spirituality or already on the path, *GAP* serves as a companion and compass, showing that the greatest adventure is not outside, but within—discovering your eternal relationship with the Supreme.

  The Man Who Found Out

  The Man Who Found Out by Roger D. Aycock - It's one thing to blow a bubble of glib, journalistic lies. Quite another to have that bubble burst in a nightmarish, green beyond. 
  The trouble with Fortenay was that he was not merely a skeptic but a professional skeptic, which is just another way of saying that he was a widely known and highly paid journalist who had long ago learned to capitalize on his penchant for iconoclasm. Fortenay was also given to the sort of reflexive arrogance inevitable to some small men, and was unscrupulous enough in its exercise to point up the flavor of his satiric commentary on any currently news-worthy phenomenon with the strong spice of semantic misrepresentation. 
  Fortenay was, in short, an able, intelligent, ambitious and thoroughly offensive little heel. He was precisely the sort who should never have been permitted in any responsible capacity aboard a scientific vessel like the oceanographic survey tug Cormorant when she was in the process of investigating a find as important as the gigantic artifact which Dr. Hans Weigand had discovered in the six-mile abyss of Bartlett Deep just south of Cuba. 
  But Fortenay's publisher was a power among politicians as well as among publishers, so Fortenay was able to announce in his syndicated column that his readers would receive on-the-spot coverage of the investigation, and that no smoke-screen of scientific doubletalk should keep the truth from them. 
  The announcement was greeted with great interest, since various disturbing rumors concerning the nature of Dr. Weigand's discovery were already in circulation. Most of them—since Dr. Weigand himself was frankly unable to offer any clue as to their origin or purpose—were elaborated upon by Fortenay and his colleagues with less regard for truth than for dramatic effect.
