  The Financial Crisis of 2008 -...

  The financial crisis of 2008 did not erupt overnight. It was the result of years of risky practices, unchecked speculation, and systemic flaws in the global financial system. The road to this crisis began with an unsustainable boom in the housing market that created a false sense of economic prosperity and security. For many Americans, owning a home became not just a dream but an expectation—one fueled by easy credit, low interest rates, and the rise of complex financial products that few truly understood. 
  In the years leading up to the crisis, financial institutions began issuing mortgages to borrowers with poor credit histories, known as subprime borrowers. These loans carried higher interest rates and were often approved without proper verification of income or assets. As more people were granted these loans, demand for housing skyrocketed, driving up home prices and encouraging even more lending. Lenders, seeking higher profits, bundled these risky mortgages into securities and sold them to investors around the world. 
  Wall Street played a major role in escalating the crisis. Investment banks repackaged these mortgages into financial instruments such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). These were sold with high credit ratings, despite being backed by increasingly shaky loans. The belief that housing prices would continue to rise allowed many to ignore the growing risks. Financial institutions, government regulators, and even investors failed to recognize—or chose to overlook—the signs of impending collapse.

  Most  people  consider  life  a  battle,  but  it  is  not  a battle,  it  is  a  game. It  is  a  game,  however,  which  cannot  be  played successfully  without  the  knowledge  of  spiritual law,  and  the  Old  and  the  New  Testaments  give  the rules  of  the  game  with  wonderful  clearness.  Jesus Christ taught  that  it  was  a  great  game  of  Giving and  Receiving.  "Whatsoever  a  man  soweth  that  shall  he  also reap."  This  means  that  whatever  man  sends  out  in word  or  deed,  will  return  to  him;  what  he  gives,  he will  receive.

  Leibniz’s Monads - Because...

  Ever wondered what reality is made of? If you're thinking atoms, molecules, or maybe regret and caffeine, think again. According to Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz—17th-century genius, calculus co-inventor, and metaphysical madlad—the universe is made of tiny, windowless soul-particles called monads. They don’t touch, don’t talk, and yet still manage to reflect the entire cosmos like cosmic disco balls of divine insight. 
  In Leibniz’s Monads: Because Particles with Feelings Totally Make Sense, Sophia Blackwell (author of Kant You Not) returns with another brutally honest, laugh-out-loud, actually-informative tour through one of philosophy’s weirdest, most ambitious systems. From the problem of evil to quantum physics, ecology to ethics, this book unpacks Leibniz’s windowless wonders and shows how his soul-marbles still haunt modern science, spirituality, and your existential crisis at 2am. 
  Perfect for students, armchair philosophers, or anyone who wants to understand metaphysics without crying in German. 
  Inside, you’ll learn: 
  What monads are (and why they’re basically metaphysical Tamagotchis) 
  Why your soul is pre-synced with the universe like a divine group project 
  How this is somehow the best possible world (yes, even with all of… this) 
  What quantum physics, computer science, and modern consciousness studies owe to a guy who never left Leipzig 
  And why Leibniz remains philosophy’s most lovable, logic-obsessed optimist 
  If you like philosophy that doesn’t take itself too seriously—but still takes ideas seriously—this book is for you. 
  Warning: May cause sudden belief in soul-particles. Or at least very polite existential confusion.

  Monday, 4 September 1967 
  Marine Lance Corporal Jack Swan crested the face of a bare, rocky knoll in 
  the Que Son Valley of South Vietnam. Following Swan were the 164 Marines of 
  Mike Company, Third Battalion, Fifth Marines, First Marine Division. Their 
  mission was to locate and rescue two understrength and isolated companies 
  of felow Marines who were under attack by the North Vietnamese Armv 
  The sight of a quiet and serene rice paddy and shrub covered valley greeted 
  Swan. Too serene, he thought, as he caught sight of a trembling bush. "I think 
  I just saw that bush move!" he shouted. "If it moves again, shoot it!" his squad 
  leader commanded he bush moved Swan hired. and the hush went down 
  Then hell on earth broke loose. 
  Rocket-propelled grenades, AK-47 fire, mortars, and machine guns engulfed 
  the exposed Marines. The vaunted 2nd NVA Division, six thousand, five hundred 
  men strong and expertly camouflaged, had sprung their well-laid trap. 
  Instead of coming to the rescue of their embattled comrades, it was now the 
  men of Mike 3/5 who were about to be annihilated. Burdened with a rifle, the 
  M16, that would often malfunction, how could they hope to beat back a vastly 
  superior foe bent on their destruction? 
  Outnumbered, out-gunned, and exposed, would any of the men of Mike 3/5 survive?
