Описание: An unprecedented history of the CIA's secret and amazing gadgetry behind the art of espionage In this look at the CIA's most secretive operations and the devices that made them possible, Spycraft tells gripping life-and-death stories about a group of spytechs--much of it never previously revealed and with images never before seen by the public. The CIA's Office of Technical Service is the ultrasecret department that grappled with challenges such as: What does it take to build a quiet helicopter? How does one embed a listening device in a cat? What is an invisible photo used for? These amazingly inventive devices were created and employed against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions--including the Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and continuing terrorist threats. Written by Robert Wallace, the former director of the Office of Technical Service, and internationally renowned intelligence historian Keith Melton, Spycraft is both a fantastic encyclopedia of gadgetry and a revealing primer on the fundamentals of high-tech espionage. "The first comprehensive look at the technical achievements of American espionage from the 1940s to the present."--Wired "Reveals more concrete information about CIA tradecraft than any book."--The Washington Times
"This is a story I thought could never be told."--JAMES M. OLSON, former chief of CIA counterintelligence

Описание:
I discovered that the spiritual philosophy of Osteopathic Medicine was contrary to my Christian faith...
"There is no question as to whether there can be a spiritual element within osteopathic medical care," writes one of the representatives of the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). "A core tenet of osteopathic medicine is that: 'The body is a unit; the person is a unit of body, mind, and spirit.'"
Finally, there was acknowledgement that osteopathy had its own spirituality. This was a happy moment for me reading those words in November of 2014. There really is no question. There is and can be a spiritual element in osteopathic medical care. I spent two years trying to get the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) to understand I could not be one of their members because the philosophy and practice of osteopathy was spiritual. By being a member of the AOA and practicing osteopathic principles, I would be violating my own religious beliefs. It was a wonderful moment when they got it. Now the question was, would they accommodate me and find a way for me to renounce osteopathic religious spiritual thought and keep my allopathic/scientific (traditionally called MD) medical training.
The answer was a resounding no
The reason, I later discovered, is that the National Board of Osteopathic Medical Examiners (NBOME) has wed that spiritual element to my training, license, and all domains of patient care. -- Karen Melton, Physician
"This book reveals an insider's view of the world of osteopathic medicine and shines a bright light on aspects of the underlying philosophy that are sure to startle and alarm the reader. This is a must-read for any Christian who seeks healthcare standards that originate in the teachings of the Divine Physician." -- Susan Brinkmann, OCDS

Описание: Engelbert Humperdinck's opera Hänsel und Gretel is one of the best-known in the repertoire, its melodies as familiar as folk-tunes - and yet no full-length biography of Humperdinck (1854-1921) has ever been published in English: although highly regarded a century ago, he has since been overshadowed by the continued success of his own fairy-tale creation. His other works remain essentially unknown, but they include five additional operas, ten further stage works (including music for four Shakespeare plays), pieces for orchestra and for chorus, and many songs. This book sets a pioneering examination of Humperdinck's entire output in a biographical framework, with detailed, illustrated descriptions accompanied by quotations from Humperdinck's contemporaries. Humperdinck was a quintessential composer of the Germany of the Kaisers: his maturation coincided with the establishment of the German Empire, and his training with teachers who remembered Beethoven and Schubert culminated in an apprenticeship with Richard Wagner. His talents won him entry to the Bayreuth inner circle and to the home of Johannes Brahms, and earned him a reception with Kaiser Wilhelm II and an evening in Theodore Roosevelt's White House. His friends included Richard Strauss, Hugo Wolf, Gustav Mahler, Giacomo Puccini and Isadora Duncan. Kurt Weill, Leo Blech, and Hans Pfitzner were among his hundreds of students. Humperdinck was a prolific writer, too, and the detailed and candid letters and diary entries quoted here provide an inside view of musical life in Wilhelmine Germany, with its extraordinary number of theatres, orchestras, choral societies, music publishers, journals and conservatoires, their principal personalities generously illustrated in the pages of this book. William Melton, born in Philadelphia in 1954, did his graduate studies in music history at the University of California Los Angeles and spent his career in the horn section of the Sinfonie Orchester Aachen (Aix-la-Chapelle). In addition, he is a contributor to The Cambridge Wagner Encyclopedia (2013) and the author of The Wagner Tuba: A History (edition ebenos, Aachen, 2008). Further projects have included biographical essays on lesser-known Romantics like Friedrich Klose, Henri Kling, Felix Draeseke, and Friedrich Gernsheim, and he has researched and edited the scores of the 'Forgotten Romantics' series for the publisher edition ebenos.

Описание:
It was a heavy snow year in Breckenridge, Colorado--great for the ski resort, but extra work for Will Parker, working for his father, keeping the snow shoveled. The high point of his day happened when he caught a break in the clouds and was able to take pictures of sunspots for his science fair project, sharing the event with new friend Kelly Winslow. But what they saw on the face of the sun was the beginning of a solar storm powerful enough to disrupt the world and turn heavy snow into a catastrophe.
