Описание: This unique reference presents 59 biographies of people who were key to the sea services being reasonably prepared to fight the Japanese Empire when the Second World War broke out, and whose advanced work proved crucial. These intelligence pioneers invented techniques, procedures, and equipment from scratch, not only allowing the United States to hold its own in the Pacific despite the loss of most of its Fleet at Pearl Harbor, but also laying the foundation of today's intelligence methods and agencies. One-hundred years ago, in what was clearly an unsophisticated pre-information era, naval intelligence (and foreign intelligence in general) existed in rudimentary forms almost incomprehensible to us today. Founded in 1882, the U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI)-the modern world's "oldest continuously operating intelligence agency"-functioned for at least its first forty years with low manning, small budgets, low priority, and no prestige. The navy's early steps into communications intelligence (COMINT), which included activities such as radio interception, radio traffic analysis, and cryptology, came with the 1916 establishment of the Code and Signals Section within the navy's Division of Communications and with the 1924 creation of the "Research Desk" as part of the Section. Like ONI, this COMINT organization suffered from low budgets, manning, priority, and prestige. The dictionary focuses on these pioneers, many of whom went on, even after World War II, to important positions in the Navy, the State Department, the Armed Forces Security Agency, the National Security Agency, and the Central Intelligence Agency. It reveals the work and innovations of well and lesser-known individuals who created the foundations of today's intelligence apparatus and analysis.

Описание: Universally generations have been captivated by Mississippi River Legends and mystique, however no one can truly know the great river unless they clutch a paddle for 2,300 miles or read "Willow Sieve Chronicles". One can read Twain and everything written since or perhaps take an expensive excursion on Delta Queen, however, one will never come to know the sight, sound, smell, taste and touch of the "Mighty Muddy" unless they climb aboard the battered, borrowed, open aluminum canoe christened Willow Sieve and ride along with Blaine and Shocker from the headwaters to the Gulf. A novice adventurer/wanna be writer made a spur of the moment decision to canoe the length of the Mississippi accompanied solely by a spoiled family pet foolishly thinking that PhD in the late 20th Century could reenact the feats of early explorers. Barely seventy hours after the initial impulse however, the man was chest deep in a wild rice bog with a terrified dog wrapped around his neck; frantically clinging to the canoe while they were being pounded by a brutal, early Arctic nor'wester that hurled the canoe off of the river then mercilessly pounded them with sleet. The man was locked in a life or death struggle for survival and Willow Sieve Saga had only just begun. They were to endure wind, electrical storms, torrential rain, fog, freezing rain, bitter cold, sandstorms, floodwater, cascades, collisions, punctures and a tornado...there were encounters with river pirates, an escaped convict, standoff with a street gang and seemingly incessant punishing wind often punctuated by farcical, sometime tragic "dryland scrambles" that arose during attempts to reestablish contact with civilization in order to replenish supplies. Those forays yielded a vagrancy arrest, visit to "The Twilight Zone" and an overstated reenactment of "Hell's a' Poppin" and numerous chance meetings with colorful characters and real river people. In spite of unbelievable setbacks, the adventurous misfits somehow managed to escape to the peace and serenity of Nature where most days ended with the scintillating perception of "Eavesdropping from a Wilderness so near yet so very far away. The initial sixty-eight-day voyage of Willow Sieve and her inept crew was a ride on a natural as well as emotional roller-coater during which highs grew higher and the lows sank to unimaginable depths with each passing day, every mile of the way from the headwaters to the Gulf of Mexico which ultimately rose to a rollicking, rip-roaring crescendo before the maiden voyage of The Willow Sieve was to end December 18, 1991.
Описание: Similar to the Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, the book is an entertaining and thought-provoking story about how the devil is corrupting modern-day culture. Lucifer, the "Boss," interviews a potential new apprentice. The story follows the apprentice as he tries to silence a fire-and-brimstone preacher, encourages abortion, tries to convince some college students that there is no devil, and encourages divorce. But much of his evil work is undone by God's angel - Angelica - who has been sent to do good. The Boss explains to his apprentice how he used ridicule, logic, "compassion," and the courts to turn the United States from a Christian nation into a largely secular one. But he complains about how the Son has made his work much more difficult, because anyone who believes in the Son and asks for forgiveness is saved. Lucifer's explanation to his apprentice of how evil came to prominence in our culture, and how he can be defeated, is a story every Christian should hear and understand. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." (Ephesians 6:12 NIV)

Описание: This book is composed of Loretta Young's 1990 conversations with me (Edward Funk) about her movie years.In the concurrent new book, "Behind the Door: the Real Life of Loretta Young," I delve into a select few of Loretta Young's ninety-eight films; enough to know she was a major movie star and her battles to get there and remain for the next twenty-five years. Yet, Loretta and I had discussed ninety-one of her films and that left so much material behind. Since 1990, voices able to recall a career from the silent era, through the golden years of film, have been extinguished. Loretta's isn't just any voice; she tells us from an Academy Award winning star's perspective. She discusses the actors, the directors, the producers, the clothes (and more clothes ), what she learned about acting, her innumerable "crushes" on her leading men, her reputation as being "difficult," the roles she wanted, the roles she didn't. It's eighty thousand words of memories, a discussion of which, hopefully, classic film buffs will enjoy eavesdropping. Excerpts: When the camera rolled, he (jimmy Cagney) was in character; there was no getting around it. And I think for a woman to have a man, who is violent that way, but she's the only one he's sensitive with and sweet and soft with, it's doubly important to her then. Even playing a character in a picture, you felt a part of that. Acting, I think, is a wonderful bit of therapy for anyone because you can do, really, anything that you might be tempted to, and you really aren't doing it, because you're only acting. Because there's a lot of attraction, I find, in evil. Usually, it's so covered up with beauty that you don't see the evil.Nothing turns me off quicker than somebody who's not infatuated or thinks I'm divine.If you are a star, you don't have to act like a star. You are a star. You know that by how much money you get; you know that by where your name appears....You can only make love for three minutes as long as the camera is rolling, and passionate love if you want, and the minute the camera is over, no responsibility whatsoever. You call that just a job? Well, it's not quite "just a job," is it? I know I want things my way. I know in the studio, everyone used to say and they still do, that I'm not the easiest person in the world to work with...producers and writers...... I know I'm not.....I was given the #1 dressing room at the studio for MAN'S CASTLE. I didn't know at that time that at the back of the closet of that dressing room there was a door that led right into Harry Cohn's private office. I think Alan (Ladd) was very conscious of his looks. He would not look beyond a certain point in the camera because he didn't think he looked good. What difference does it make what a man looks like so long as he looks like a man? With a woman, it's very important. These are women's tricks. It's a model's walk. It allows you to swing your body without swinging your hips because the whole body goes with it. I know it's showing off. Otherwise it would not please me most when the camera is going because everybody is going to look at me big, blown-up.You'd be surprised how important a movie star feels at times. Reigning kings and queens don't mean very much unless they come into your life in the way this did. But just to meet a king or queen, I don't know, I'd never go out of my way to do it. Now, I loved love scenes, all the touching and petting because I liked men. I liked them then, and I still like them.(Speaking to director Jules Dassin): I can't continue. I don't think you're any happier with me than I am with you. One of us is going to go, and I think, unfortunately for you, at this point, I'm a bigger star than you're a director. It isn't easy for a beautiful woman to be a faithful wife. If she's happily married, yes. Very easy for her to be. But if she's unhappily married and she's attractive, it's very difficult. Very.
