  A military historian’s account of the German fortifications at Omaha Beach explains the huge American losses during this key WWII conflict.   In this fresh look at D-Day—one of World War II's pivotal battles—author Steven Zaloga draws on original research, including recently discovered German artillery maps, and offers well-supported evidence for why the U.S. Army suffered such enormous casualties on Omaha Beach.  Focusing on Erwin Rommel, the Desert Fox, who oversaw German defenses in Normandy, Zaloga covers little-known aspects of the war, such as the German patrols who were tasked with shooting down pigeons the French resistance used to send messages to the Allies, offering up conclusions that are sure to spark debate.

  Make anxiety work for you. 
   
   
   
  Work is stressful: We race to meet deadlines. We extend ourselves to return favors for colleagues. We set ambitious goals for ourselves and our teams. We measure ourselves against metrics, our competitors, and sometimes, our colleagues. Some of us even go beyond tangible metrics to internalize stress and fear of missing the mark—ruminating over presentations that didn't go according to plan, imagining worst-case scenarios, or standing frozen, paralyzed by perfectionism. But hypervigilance, worry, and catastrophizing don't have to hold you back at work. When channeled thoughtfully, anxiety can motivate us to be more resourceful, productive, and creative. It can break down barriers and create new bonds with our colleagues.

  “It’s better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep.” 
   
  "I am the most terrible animal that's ever existed." 
   
  "Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice, it is a fallacy. You in America will see that someday." 
   
  "It's good to trust others but, not to do so is much better." 
   
  “I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look for moral guidance." (Mussolini) 
   
  Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini, born on July 29, 1883, who went by the nickname “Il Duce” (“the Leader”), was a deeply unbalanced tyrannical Italian dictator who created the dreaded Fascist Party in 1919. Eventually, he held all power in Italy as the country’s prime minister from 1922 to 1943. An ardent socialist as a youth, Mussolini followed in his father's political footsteps but was expelled by the party for his overt support of World War I. As an evil dictator during World War II (even murdering his own son by lethal injection) he greatly overextended his forces and was eventually killed by his own people in Mezzegra, Italy. Here, for the first time, are the words of the great dictator himself in his twisted manifesto on the political movement he started and is still so feared to this very day.
