  Ancient Explorers of Eastern...

  Where did the first colonizers of North America from Europe, North Africa and the British Isles first land? 
  The greatest mixed cluster is in New England and spreading out from it. And how did these ancient travellers journey across the face of North America? Generally in the same way that they got there. In watercraft! To the ancients the seas, lakes and rivers were the superhighways as crossing land until the later Romans developed road systems was in many cases near impossible if not exceptionally difficult. This is how all great exploration has always been done until recently. You sail across a sea and then up the first river you find to see where it will go and this scenario never changes. You only go overland when there are no rivers or lakes as it is much harder to consign goods or travel over unexplored territory than by water. 
  Another great superhighway to trade was from the Gulf of Mexico and up its tributaries and in some cases via now long lost rivers to the Great Lakes themselves. In fact you did not even need long lost rivers. Present day ones would do just as well. The Des Moines River which connects up with the Mississippi River runs within five miles west of Lake Michigan within the present city limits of Chicago. Not too far to move a boat across land from the Great Lakes to the Des Moines River. Even less distance in the thousand year pluvial periods when water levels were higher and there was more rain. There were wider rivers and more lakes to travel across.

  The Fall of the Berlin Wall -...

  The Berlin Wall stands as one of the most defining symbols of the Cold War, a stark reminder of the ideological divide that shaped global politics in the second half of the 20th century. For nearly three decades, it separated families, friends, and a nation, embodying the tension between the communist East and the capitalist West. Its fall on November 9, 1989, marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War and set the stage for German reunification, forever altering the political landscape of Europe and the world.  
    
  The origins of the Berlin Wall lie in the aftermath of World War II. Germany, defeated and devastated, was divided among the Allied powers into zones of occupation. The ideological rivalry between the Soviet Union and Western powers grew, culminating in the division of Berlin, a microcosm of the larger global conflict. East Germany, under Soviet influence, sought to stem the flow of its citizens fleeing to the West, leading to the construction of the wall in 1961.  
    
  Life in a divided Berlin was marked by stark contrasts. The West flourished as a hub of democracy and economic prosperity, while the East struggled under authoritarian rule and economic stagnation. For those trapped behind the wall, the barriers were not only physical but also symbolic of lost freedom and opportunity. Despite this, the human spirit remained resilient, as many risked everything in daring attempts to escape to the West.

  The Sex You Want - A Shameless...

  When it comes to relationships, our society has plenty of expectations. We're supposed to know how to speak up for ourselves in bed, be caring partners, and, of course, love ourselves first. But no one tells us how to actually do all those things, and we are left feeling unsatisfied, confused, and ashamed when we don't measure up. Former Deputy District Attorney Rena Martine was in that position. After rejecting the ideal white-picket fence life, she embarked on a journey to redefine intimacy in a way that felt true. In the years that followed, Rena defied all of society's sexual norms, built a presence as a global women's intimacy coach, and created the intimate life she craved. 
   
   
   
  Now she brings those experiences to you! With no-holds-barred honesty, stories from real-life women, and sparkling humor, The Sex You Want will help you: build a secure relationship with your most important partner—yourself; get in touch with your expectations for relationships so you can date more intentionally; demystify lifestyle practices outside of the heterosexual-monogamous-vanilla box with frank discussions of female sexual fluidity, kink, and ethical non-monogamy; find apps, products, and communities to satisfy any curiosity; and bring deep intimacy and exciting variety into your bedroom and beyond. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  A Sense of Balance

  On how our feeling of equilibrium has characterized us as a country and will protect our future. 
  In the years that the creator served in the public parliament he came to figure out the extraordinary person of Australia; to see the value in its assets and shortcomings; and in particular to regard the feeling of equilibrium in the plan of public strategy that has long characterized us as a country and made Australia an appealing objective for individuals from across the world. 
  In this book he investigates this equilibrium, its establishments and its future. Composed against the background of the Coronavirus pandemic, as well as a portion of the more challenged political occasions of late years - the appointment of Donald Trump, the Brexit vote, the ascent of China, and, inside our own country, a merry go round of six heads of the state in eleven years - these reflections address how Australia has answered strain over the course of the past ten years or somewhere in the vicinity. Editorial regarding these matters from lawmakers, assessment scholars and web-based entertainment can at times appear to be deafening and disruptive. Australia's 25th and second longest serving head of the state has confidence that regardless of what difficulties and limits take steps to agitate our feeling of equilibrium, the nation's foundations and individuals will stay hearty for a significant length of time.
