  "The Pivot of Civilization" is a non-fiction book written by Margaret Sanger, the founder of the birth control movement in the United States. Sanger argues that overpopulation is the root cause of poverty, disease, and social unrest. She advocates for the use of birth control methods to enable women to control their own reproductive health and prevent unwanted pregnancies. Sanger also argues that access to birth control can help to improve the lives of women and children, and can ultimately lead to a better society. In "The Pivot of Civilization," Sanger makes a powerful case for the importance of reproductive rights and family planning. Her ideas were controversial at the time, but they helped to pave the way for the widespread availability of birth control and the legalization of abortion in the United States. Overall, "The Pivot of Civilization" is an influential book that remains relevant today as debates around reproductive rights and family planning continue to shape public policy and social attitudes

  Death in the Highlands - The...

  In fall 1965, North Vietnam's high command smelled blood in the water. The South Vietnamese republic was on the verge of collapse, and Hanoi resolved to crush it once and for all. The communists set their sights on South Vietnam's strategically vital West-Central Highlands. Their first target was the American Special Forces camp at Plei Me, remote and isolated along the Cambodian border. 
   
   
    
  As darkness fell on 19 October, 1965, two North Vietnamese Army regiments crept into their final strike positions. The plan was as simple as it was audacious: one regiment would bring the frontier fortress under siege while the other would lie in wait to destroy the inevitable rescue force. Initially, all that stood athwart Hanoi's grand scheme was a handful of American Green Berets, a few hundred Montagnard allies—and burgeoning US airpower. 
   
   
    
  But as the overland relief force bogged down, 5th Group ordered in the legendary "Chargin" Charlie Beckwith and his elite Project Delta to help hold the line. Soon, the newly formed 1st Cavalry Division, under its commander Maj. Gen. Harry Kinnard, would join the fray, setting the stage for its bloody Ia Drang Valley fights a few weeks later. Before it was over, the siege of Plei Me would push its defenders to the brink and usher in the first major clashes between the US and North Vietnamese armies.
