  For nearly two decades, the United States military intelligence community delved into the dark world of psychic espionage, recruiting a team of individuals who used their paranormal gifts to transcend time and space and uncover the highly guarded military secrets of other nations. After David Morehouse— a highly decorated Army officer who was wounded on a mission— began to have inexplicable experiences, those troubling events redirected his military career. When Morehouse walked through the doors of the CIA's Stargate Program, he had little idea what awaited him: a paranormal hell that would bring him to the front lines of some of the most horrific disasters in recent history and nearly destroy him. At first unable to tell the shocking truth for fear of death, Morehouse eventually produced this shocking expose. Read by the author, Psychic Warrior recounts Morehouse's secret espionage work in chilling detail and reveals the spiritual transformation that led to his work for peace.

  This course helps you refine your Spanish pronunciation and develop an authentic accent. Unlike basic language programs that focus on vocabulary and grammar, this one dives deep into phonetics and the cultural nuances that shape Spanish speech. 
  You’ll start with Spanish phonetics, mastering vowel consistency, consonant articulation, and stress patterns. You'll learn the precise tongue placement, resonance, and breath control needed for accurate pronunciation. Key skills include producing pure vowels (without English diphthongs), articulating challenging sounds like the rolled "r" and soft "d," mastering Spanish stress and rhythm, and using natural intonation for statements, questions, and emotions. 
  Through structured practice, including minimal pair exercises, you'll sharpen your ability to distinguish similar sounds and correct common pronunciation mistakes. You’ll also explore how culture influences accents, helping you connect more deeply with Spanish-speaking communities. 
  A media study component teaches you how to improve pronunciation by learning from films, TV, music, and podcasts. The course wraps up with an in-depth look at major dialects, including Castilian, Caribbean, Mexican, Andean, and Rioplatense Spanish. 
  Perfect for intermediate to advanced learners, accent reduction students, cultural immersion travelers, and professionals.

  How do you begin your life again when you’ve lost everything you’ve worked for and your dreams have been shattered? 
  That was the question beloved Australian author Belinda Alexandra faced one freezing winter night when she ran from her home in terror, clutching only her wallet, her phone and her latest manuscript on a USB stick. 
  To pull herself up from rock bottom, Belinda drew strength from the real life women who had inspired her bestselling historical fiction: her mother, Tatiana Morosoff, a White Russian who had fled a home more than once due to wars and revolutions; Virginia Hall, an American who lost her leg in an accident but went on to become one of the most revered Allied agents in World War II France; Carmen Amaya, who despite being born into abject poverty in Barcelona rose to become the greatest Flamenco dancer of all time; Edna Walling, who lost her own dream home in a freak fire but created garden designs that made her one of Australia’s most celebrated landscape designers. 
  They were women who had faced seemingly insurmountable challenges and found ways to forge ahead on their own terms. 
  In a compelling and exquisite blend of memoir and history, Belinda shows readers that, no matter what challenge they might be facing, there is always the possibility of building a bold life full of meaning again from the ashes.

  The Heart Sutra - Becoming a...

  Osho

  The Heart Sutra , originally a very short set of verses, was given in privacy as a message to one of Buddha's close disciples, Sariputra, specifically addressed to him. Over time the Heart Sutra became one of Buddhism's core teachings.
  In these 10 talks, Osho presents the powerful message of these ancient words and brings them to a modern audience - one with different minds and needs than the original audiences of Buddha more than 2,500 years ago. Osho's message is not about Buddha the historical figure; instead he addresses his listeners and encourages them to discover their own inner realities, their own buddhahood. Like Buddha's, Osho's message is about meditation and meditation alone - "rely only on your meditation and nothing else".
  Osho also speaks on the seven chakras, the energy centers of the human body, and their corresponding relationships to the physical, psychosomatic, psychological, psychospiritual, spiritual, spiritual-transcendental, and transcendental aspects of human growth and consciousness.

  The Chinese Great Leap Forward...

  The origins of the Great Leap Forward are deeply rooted in the political ambition and ideological vision of Mao Zedong, the founding leader of the People’s Republic of China. Following the success of the Communist revolution in 1949, Mao sought not only to rebuild a war-torn nation but to rapidly transform it into a socialist utopia capable of rivaling the industrial powers of the West. By the mid-1950s, China had already launched its First Five-Year Plan, modeled after the Soviet approach to centralized economic planning. Encouraged by early gains in heavy industry, Mao envisioned a second phase of development that would leap over traditional stages of economic growth. 
  At the heart of this vision was a push for mass mobilization. Mao believed that the sheer size of China's population could be harnessed as a revolutionary force capable of achieving miraculous feats. The Great Leap Forward, initiated in 1958, was designed to propel China into a modern communist society by emphasizing agricultural collectivization and rural industrialization simultaneously. Rather than relying on expert knowledge or slow-paced industrial planning, Mao favored decentralized enthusiasm and ideological commitment, trusting that the collective will of the people would overcome any technical limitations. 
  One of the most radical elements of this plan was the establishment of people’s communes, which replaced the traditional family unit and private farming with large-scale collective labor. Households were merged into communes comprising thousands of individuals, who would eat, sleep, and work under strict communal arrangements. The idea was to increase efficiency and free up labor for industrial production, especially in rural areas where backyard furnaces were set up to produce steel. This was accompanied by an aggressive campaign to eliminate what were seen as capitalist tendencies, including private plots and individual incentives.
