  The Dismantling of Democracy -...

  Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine 
  We are witnessing a systematic teardown of democracy worldwide. This book will help you make sense of the world, understand how this could happen, and consider what we can do as ordinary citizens to flip the script on authoritarians. 
  We are in a perpetual struggle between authoritarian rule and the enduring resilience of freedom, also known as Democracy. This resilience, this unwavering strength, is not just a concept but a beacon of hope that inspires us to fight for our freedom of choice. 
  Having peace of mind, understanding how the world works, and seeing real-world examples are priceless, as shown in this book. However, beware that the who, how, and what is being done to dismantle democracy is terrifying to learn. You need to start with a willingness to hold the knowledge; once you have it, there is no forgetting it and no turning back. In the last 80 years, Democracy, to date, has not offered up a defense. Hence, we have been slowly taken off course. We need to fortify our defenses and go on the offense. 
  President Ronald Reagan said it best: 
  "Freedom is a fragile thing, and it's never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by way of inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. And those in world history who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again." 
  Here's a not-so-fun fact: you have a six times greater chance of being killed living under an authoritarian regime than you do living and fighting for Democracy (TUCCILLE, 2014). Reading this book will give you the same peace of mind and sense of purpose that we all long for. We have to have purpose in wanting to live free and safe. That must be our eternal focus because freedom is not a given.

  The Illusion of Control - Why...

  Jon Danielsson

  • 0

  A challenge to the conventional wisdom surrounding financial risk, providing insight into why easy solutions to control the financial system are doomed to fail 
   
   
    
  Finance plays a key role in the prosperity of the modern world—but it also brings grave dangers. We seek to manage those threats with a vast array of sophisticated mathematical tools and techniques of financial risk management. Too often, though, we fail to address the greatest risk—the peril posed by our own behavior. 
   
   
    
  Jón Daníelsson argues that critical risk is generated from within, through the interactions of individuals and perpetuated by their beliefs, objectives, abilities, and prejudices. He asserts that the widespread belief that risk originates outside the financial system frustrates our ability to measure and manage it, and the likely consequences of new regulations will help alleviate small-scale risks but, perversely, encourage excessive risk taking. Daníelsson uses lessons from past and recent crises to show that diversity is the best way to safeguard our financial system.

  Black Saturday - An Unfiltered...

  Fox News war correspondent Trey Yingst shares his gripping, firsthand account of the events of October 7, 2023, and the ensuing war, offering riveting insight and fresh facts that clarify the scope and magnitude of this latest and most dramatic outbreak in one of the bloodiest, most nuanced, and longest-standing conflicts in modern history. 
  On the morning of October 7, 2023, the militant group known as Hamas launched a vicious attack on Israel in the most recent stage of the deeply complicated and decades-long Israel-Palestine conflict. The assault, which took place on Shabbat—the day of rest for the Jewish people—instantly became known among Israelis and the world as “Black Saturday.” 
  On October 7, Fox News Correspondent Trey Yingst was on the ground along the Gaza border and witnessed firsthand the devastation, shock, and deep sorrow that whirled through Israel. A seasoned journalist who has reported from some of the most dangerous hotspots around the world, including the frontlines in Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, Yingst was just one among many people plunged into the terrifying chaos of that horrific event. In this shocking and eye-opening chronicle, he pieces together the story of that tragic day and reveals how he risked his life searching for answers to essential questions in real time--who within Israel had been attacked; what happened to them; who, potentially, was next--while exploring the impact on both Israelis and Palestinians as a full-scale war ramps up and peace grows more elusive. “We have a responsibility now to account for and record these events—and tell the world the truth,” Yingst writes. “We cannot look away.” 
  Committed to reporting the whole truth, on both sides of the Israel-Gaza border, Yingst interviewed a range of exclusive contacts to incorporate multiple perspectives. From conversations with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and high-ranking soldiers, to interviews with Senior Hamas official Dr. Bassem Naim and Gazan journalist Nael Ghaboun, to heartbreaking accounts from civilians placed in the crosshairs of the attack and conflict that followed, Yingst takes us inside the newest phase of an old war in which thousands more people—men, women, and children—are suffering. 
  Combining candor, grit, and veracity, Yingst paints a vivid picture of horrors and violence, matched by acts of courage and humanity that cut through the darkness. A testament to unwavering resilience and tenacity, Black Saturday is the riveting chronicle of one journalist’s experience relentlessly pursuing the truth in the face of terror.
