  Underserved is a tangible blueprint for today's conservative who understands the need for a new and viable political plan of action—one that addresses the needs of the underserved communities that make up these United States of America. Utilizing the concept of the "Party of Lincoln" and the conservative principles set forth over centuries by the movement's most recognized thought leaders, Underserved examines President Lincoln's intentions for Reconstruction, President Grant's aims to implement that vision, and Frederick Douglass's influence on both men in the process. Underserved brings home the very real impact of a failed plan that has had negative implications on modern America, whether conservative, moderate, or liberal. 
   
   
   
  With this historical plan as the linchpin for creating a framework that services disenfranchised communities, authors Ja'Ron K. Smith and Chris Pilkerton challenge conservative policy makers to employ strategies that mirror those originally presented over 160 years ago, while making necessary concessions for its modern audience. 
   
   
   
  From education and workforce development to criminal justice reform and healthcare disparities, Underserved makes a bold statement about what is necessary to see a change in the current state of affairs and presents a realistic action plan to make it happen.

  Merry Christmas? What if everything you thought you knew about one of the most popular world holidays was not exactly what you have been told? Would you accept this new information or would you reject it?Like the teachings of Yeshua Messiah that were rejected by the majority, the origins of the world’s favorite holiday are typically met with disbelief or overt dismissal. But the Almighty tells us in the Bible (and sometimes to the ears who will hear) that man-made holidays or so-called “holy” days do not honor him. So how did holidays that are not in the Bible and were never commanded by the Most High God become incorporated into churches? How has the entire world been deceived? What about those who are trying to be “politically correct”? Is Jesus the reason for the season? Should “Christ” be in Christmas? Explore the fascinating and sometimes shocking origins of Christmas and many of its popular traditions in this easy-to-read booklet that you will be unable to put down. But once you do, how will you deal with what you know moving forward? The answer is of course, up to you!

  The Heavy Water War - Beating...

  During the course of the Second World War, the Allies mounted a series of attempts to prevent Germany from manufacturing heavy water utilising hydroelectric plants in occupied Norway. These efforts comprised a mix of bomber and Commando raids. The overall aim was to stop Nazi Germany building a nuclear bomb. In fact, Hitler was never as close as the Allies thought, but the idea that his regime could construct and deploy such a device was the ultimate doomsday scenario, one that would have tilted the balance in favour of the Nazis. The mere threat might have been sufficient to force a negotiated peace with the perception of a Nazi bomb hanging over the world like a nuclear-powered sword of Damocles. 
   
  Production, and therefore the Allied target, centred on the Vemork Power Station standing by the Rjukan Waterfall at Telemark. A series of daring raids – Operations Grouse, Freshman and Gunnerside – neutralised the plant’s capacity. In Operation Freshman, every single glider-borne paratrooper was either captured or killed. In February 1943, a force of SOE-trained Norwegian Commandos succeeded in sabotaging the plant’s production capacity. Further manufacturing effort was abandoned, and the Nazis attempted to spirit away the heavy water they had on the ferry SF Hydro. The Norwegians managed to sink the vessel in the deep waters of Lake Tinn. Using primary source material and published on the 80th anniversary of the sinking of the Hydro, The Heavy Water War tells a story of extraordinary courage and endurance. The stakes in any special forces raid in history have never been higher.

  Getting Started with Mind...

  You’ve probably heard of mind maps before. In school you surely had teachers create them more than once, with a main idea in the middle, and the branches that popped out in all directions, with sub-themes, which looked like a giant spider on the blackboard. You probably didn’t give much thought to them back then, and you’ve probably even forgotten about them in general by now. 
  	The thing is, though they might bring you back to thoughts of elementary-level learning, Mind Maps can be an excellent visual tool for pretty much everything you can imagine. It’s been argued that the type of memory people use the most is visual. Mind Maps are great for exploiting this memory because they have the additional benefit of working similar to the way our mind does. 
  	We have grown used to note-taking and list-making, but our brain does not work in a linear way; it actually functions by making free associations between ideas that branch from one onto the other. Mind Maps are the same. You part from a main idea, which then opens onto more sub-topics that are related directly to it. This helps structure the information you will be working with, which in turn helps you analyze, understand, and compress the data correctly, which then makes it easier for you to remember it and create new ideas parting from that point. 
  	Mind Maps are a very simple way to arrange your thoughts in an analytical, but also artistic way, something that makes more than one area of your brain work on it, making it engage various cognitive functions, so that you can learn or organize your ideas better. This book will teach you mind mapping techniques from A to Z. Get it Now!
