Born and raised in Massachusetts, Dr. Memory always wanted to become a doctor, as long as he could remember, to use his love of science to help people.
He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Boston College in 1995 and a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, in 1999. After dental school, he completed a general practice residency at Morristown Memorial Hospital in New Jersey. There he received broad exposure in all aspects of dental care, and he especially enjoyed the challenges of treating head and neck trauma. He decided he must go back to school, so to speak, to become an oral surgeon. He applied and was accepted to a very competitive six-year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at New York Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center. In the course of his residency training, Dr. Memory earned a medical degree from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. He joined his Columbia colleague Dr. Runnels at Neponset Valley Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Associates in 2007.
Dr. Memory is trained in the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery including extractions, pathology, facial trauma, anesthesia/sedation and implant and bone-grafting procedures. He was part of a team that performed the first ever CT-computer guided implant placement at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine.
Dr. Memory is board certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology. He is a Fellow of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and a member of the American Dental Association.
Dr. Memory enjoys volunteering on behalf of his professional community. He has held multiple leadership positions in the Metropolitan District Dental Society, including Chairperson, and the Massachusetts Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, where he currently serves as Treasurer. Dr. Memory is also an active member of the medical staff at Newton-Wellesley Hospital and is a licensed dentist and physician in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In 2018, he was voted a Top Dentist by his peers, as reported by Boston Magazine.
Dr. Memory lives in Needham with his wife and two daughters. He enjoys travel, golf, and skiing, and is a passionate fan of all of the championship sports teams in Boston.

Some of the artworks invite the viewer to consider the psychogeographical aspects of our situation ("You make the world the world"), as well as the psycho-historical aspects of the location ("Just think - there used to be bears here"). Go along with an open mind and time on your hands, observe the signs and you'll see what we mean. The installation is to remain in place until the end of the year.
It was a most raw February day when we were there, with a high tide battering hard against the esplanade which forms the sea-wall protecting the links from the North Sea. We walked under the esplanade and between the beach and the Broad Hill, then traversed the Trinity Cemetery up to the summit of Gallows Hill. Our interpretation of and interaction with the landscape inspired by the artifacts and the topography of the area.
|Under the esplanade

On the day when we visited, when a very high tide and a storm blowing in from the sea caused the waves to bluster and batter against the sea wall with more violence than we'd ever seen before, it was very easy to imagine a similar day in a time before modern sea defenses, the water inundating the land and reconfiguring the shifting sands, lagoons and watercourses.
This feeling of impermanence; of the diaphanous edge between something and nothing - the delicate balance between certainty and inconstancy which we felt and experienced as we stood braced against the onshore gale surveying the foreshore - put us in mind of the concept of the "Thin Place" in Celtic spirituality and the early Christian church. I've heard there's a Celtic saying that heaven and earth are only three feet apart, and that in the "thin places" that distance is even smaller. The early Christian church in Ireland, in Wales and in Scotland sought out these "thin places" for pilgrimage and in some cases to co-opt the sites and plant their missions on the foundations of pre-existing spirituality.
We feel that others have felt the same about this site throughout the history of our town and perhaps before. On the western slope of the Broad Hill, descending into a hollow and then ascending up to Gallows Hill is the Trinity Cemetery, which hosts a unique monument to people who've willed their remains to medical science for research.

The Manichean paradox embodied in the fact that the filth of manure is transmuted into an agent of purity: the bleach for the tanneries and bleachings, similarly chimes with the transformative and dynamically charged psychogeography inherent in the shifting topography of the area and how that in turn has affected our use of it. A place of comings and goings; of shifting surfaces; of things which are not as they seem; of deaths, planned and natural; of aggression and recreation; and of crime and redemption all in a "thin place", a place on the edge between the land and the sea, the edgelands between here and there; the border between the past and the future. The difference between something and nothing.

Remember that PDA I mentioned a while back? The one I use so I don't have to haul a filing cabinet of information around with me? Well, good as it is, it isn't perfect.
For starters, it's not very flexible; sometimes it doesn't bend when you do, and the resulting "flexing" can wreak havoc on your PDA. More importantly, it's an electrical system, not a paper "analog" one, which means that it is correspondingly more fragile than that little green memorandum notebook. Dropping it is bad, so is stepping on it, kicking it, crushing it, or submerging it in water.
Solution? Up armor your brain. The option I went for was the Rhino skin aluminum carrier. While not titanium (and yes there are titanium carriers out there) the Rhino skin does the job for me. Made of aluminum, the Rhino skin locks the PDA in along the left hand edge of the PDA (using the devices original cover hinges) so it doesn't rattle around in the case. Furthermore, the skin has a black foam rubber liner to protect the PDA. The construction of the Rhino skin carrier allows you to plug in the charger, data cable, audio headphones, access all the peripheral ports, with the case closed, so you don't need to expose the PDA while doing maintenance. Finally, the skin also has pockets for a couple of memory chips, in the event you need to juggle cards and don't want to have your spares floating around.
The only thing the skin won't do is keep your PDA dry. For that I use a Ziploc freezer bag (or, for you high speed active duty types you can use the newly developed re-sealable pouch the Army's putting in MREs now for drinking your beverage base powder with.)

Rickie Lee Jones kicks off annual Sandpoint music fest
Thu., Aug. 4, 2011
Box-office business is running ahead of last year's pace for this annual two-week outdoor music festival. At least three shows may stretch the 3,500-person capacity of the festival's lakeside venue at Memorial Field, although nothing was completely sold out as of press time.
The best-seller so far is Michael Franti and Spearhead – the same act that packed in sellout crowds last year. Franti's show, designated as the dance-friendly "Dance Concert" show, will be during the festival's second week, on Aug. 12.
Both of the festival's other biggest sellers – Brandi Carlisle and Chris Isaak – are part of the first week's lineup.
Read on for a rundown of the festival's opening week:
• Rickie Lee Jones, tonight, 7:30 – People might remember her for the jazzy 1979 hits "Chuck E.'s in Love" and "Young Blood." Yet Jones has been crossing genre lines ever since with forays into soul, funk, reggae and even techno. Lately, said Wahl, she has gone back to her roots, performing plenty of tunes from her early albums. She'll be with her own jazzy eight-piece band.
The opening act sounds just as intriguing. Lavay Smith and Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers play swinging jazz. Smith is a San Francisco chanteuse and her eight-piece band features veterans who have played with the likes of Duke Ellington.
• Brandi Carlile, Friday, 7:30 p.m. – She was last year's "sleeper hit" at the Festival. Carlile, the biggest star to come out of little Ravensdale, Wash., has a big, big voice, which might be described as Patsy Cline meets Melissa Etheridge. She has recently been embracing her inner rocker. Carlile is also a great entertainer, with funny between-songs banter.
The opening act is an indie rock act from Western Washington, Ivan & Alyosha.
• Chris Isaak and Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real, Saturday, 6 p.m. – Chris Isaak is the "Wicked Game" singer (among many other hits), but he has also emerged as a multimedia entertainer.
He's an actor ("Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" and "Silence of the Lambs") and has hosted his own funny and clever TV series, "The Chris Isaak Show." He brings a lot of his comic sensibilities to his stage show – along with that incredible Roy Orbison-style voice.
This is the "Super Saturday" show, which means the opening act is far more than a mere opener. Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real have already generated a ton of excitement from a Spokane date earlier this year. Lukas is Willie Nelson's sixth son, yet Wahl describes his sound as more akin to Southern rock. Rebel yells might be in order.
• "Disney Symphantasy," Family Concert with the Spokane Youth Orchestra, Sunday, gates open at 4:30 p.m. – This may be the most fun concert on the bill, for a number of reasons. For one thing, there will be two different kinds of petting zoos: a musical instrument petting zoo and an actual farm-critter petting zoo.
Also, the traditional Festival bar area will be turned over completely to the kids – no one over 21 allowed. Yes, parents, that means you'll have to stand behind the barrier and watch while you child goes in with a few bucks and buys a Shirley Temple or a Roy Rogers.
And one whole area of the festival grounds will be populated by massage therapists giving five-minute massages to those who need them most: parents.
The music might soothe the soul as well. The Spokane Youth Orchestra will play music from Disney's "Fantasia" and "The Little Mermaid." The whole thing is a bargain at only $6.
Check next Thursday's paper for a rundown of week No. 2 of the Festival at Sandpoint.

What was your first job?
A butcher delivery boy. My branded bicycle had what seemed like a giant wicker basket on the front. Each parcel was lovingly wrapped in thick brown paper, skill-fully tied and tagged with beautiful handwriting – a craft in itself.
This instilled in me that if a job is worth doing, then it's worth doing right.
What qualifications do you have?
I left school without formal qualifications and worked my way up from glass collector to general manager, to founder of an award-winning brand. Determination and hard work, in my experience, is what pays off in the long run.
What do you attribute your success to?
Passion and surrounding myself with talented people.
How would you describe yourself to someone who'd never met you?
I like to think I put a smile on people's faces whenever possible.
Who do you look up to in business?
Local hoteliers, bar and restaurant owners and the like. So many have invested massive amounts of time, energy and enthusiasm into the City of Belfast and are owed a lot of respect.
How do you get the best out of the people who work for you?
I encourage everyone to be an ambassador for Northern Ireland. Jawbox represents the true character of our people and celebrates our pride and craftsmanship.
If you could change one thing about doing business in Northern Ireland, what would it be?
Our licensing laws so we can compete with other European destinations. It's also important we help young people see hospitality as a serious career. Whilst Northern Ireland boasts some of the most talented staff in the world, there is a skills shortage which could worsen if not addressed.
What website or app could you not do without?
Instagram. We love to see people from around the world share photos of our gin.
What was the last book you read?
I'm not a big reader but I read industry titles to keep an eye on emerging trends and new brands.
What car do you drive?
A Jeep Renegade, branded of course. Watch out for me on the road – it probably means there's a Jawbox tasting not too far away.
Tell us something interesting about yourself.
In 2008 I ran a festival to celebrate the 200th birthday of Belfast-baker, Barney Hughes. Alongside tours, exhibitions and concerts, I also commissioned a beer from a local brewery named 'Barney's Brew', which remains one of its best-selling products.
What is your greatest passion outside work and family?
Travel. So far, I've visited China, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Africa, The Philippines, USA and most major European cities. A lot more to see.

|All I ever wanted was you
|[26 Down/26 To Go!]
[+] I'm glad to report I had a bit more concentration this week perhaps because this week marked the end of that korean drama that took over my life. I miss it already and am craving anything and everything starring the leads so I guess that will tide me over till the fall when TV returns to normal/hectic, really.
[+] Speaking of TV, it keeps surprising me that I find people at work that watch 90210. I find that NOBODY else watches it so having THREE co-workers watch it makes me feel less alone and now I can squee about this not-so guilty pleasure with at work. I am with like minds (silly, but alike).
Two things that occupied my Monday (other than back to back meetings that made sure I was barely at my desk the whole day and therefore totally unproductive). First off, i finished Forever Princess and now want to re-read the entire Princess Diaries series just because Michael and Mia were probably my first book ship and got me into reading again. I was melting this morning on my morning commute as I read the last few pages. Seriously, Meg Cabot still owns me.
Then I had to deal with the fact that my drama of the moment Lie To Me is ending tomorrow night and I have two episodes of cuteness left. And because I'm a total whore for spoilers, I was lurking the thread for ANY news or photos whatsoever and it did not disappoint. I don't want to let go of this drama but I'll have to. Thank goodness my dad picked me up from work because I wouldn't want the traffic to ruin an almost perfect day.
So last Saturday, my family and I had dinner out. And the next table had a family with a pretty hot dad. His kids were practically my age but he looked REALLY YOUNG all things considered. I totally forget about this dad until TODAY, at the office, I pass by a cube and HE IS THERE meeting with whoever owned the cube. It's just funny cause I'm sure if they looked up, they'd have totally seen my shocked face. i've never see him around so I doubt he works here but still right?! SMALL WORLD.
On a rare late night at the office (I love how I can now call them quasi-rare), I realized I need to chill out and be less panicked about everything. It'll definitely help with lessening stress and all but I just shouldn't worry too too much about every little thing and just learn to let go. It's funny though cause i've been like this since high school and doubt it'll go away overnight, but I realize that I just really do need to chill the hell out.
I woke up knowing that by tonight, I'd have finished my current kdrama obsession. This makes me want the 10+ hours in the office fly by as quickly as it can. And of course, on the day you want to go home early, you don't because your computer acts up and decides to be terribly slow and therefore hampering you from going home early.
I guess I underestimated my exhaustion because not even the KDRAMA of the moment could keep me up. I literally fell asleep 20 minutes into the finale, not that I hadn't seen it already the night before (SANS ENGLISH SUBTITLES -- I'm impatient, obviously). But It just makes me sad that I've had this long stretch of early outs and suddenly, on the day I most want to go home (and have reason to), I totally flake. Oh well.
I guess my tiredness was such a surprise, I ended up waking up late too and therefore having to catch a cab to the train. AND THE TRAFFIC WAS TERRIBLE. I don't get it at all. Thank goodness there were no lines at the MRT despite getting there late. I guess you win some and lose some after all.
I take a round trip going home (even if that adds another 30 minutes to the trip) because I really just wanted to chill on the train and not get jostled around too much on the way home. I also end up watching Coffee house (just because I CANNOT get enough of Kang Ji Hwan) and it's been pretty hilarious. Oh kdramas, why must you end so quickly?!?
After lunch, I return to my desk and get called back to reception to sign for something. And when I can get back to my computer, there's a Toblerone black on my keyboard. My seatmates don't know who it came from and there's no note so I'll just take it and be thankful. And as much as I'd love to believe there's some kdrama-esque hero behind this, I could care less. I really want to go home but there's sudden work on the horizon. Oh well, thanks Toblerone-giver.
And when Lee asks me if I'm sociable, of course I am. Despite my reservations about going out on a Friday night, I can't say no to Lee (i see her waaaaaay to less thaN I should) so we had Thai for dinner (Mango Tree at Trinoma is the best) and caught Monte Carlo. Watching this with Lee and catching up makes me miss her so much more. So it's a good thing we've set a date for another get-together with the rest of the barkada.
So I have absolutely no self-control and while starting on my Kang Ji Hwan drama marathon, I realized I wasn't quite into the girl who they seemed to be pairing him up with in Coffee House so I cheated and read spoilers for the ending only to find out he ends up with said girl. Oh well. I wouldn't be watching this soap anyway if it weren't for him so I might as well stick with it.
I ended up going to bed early especially since I knew I'd have to be at work the next day and it made me wish weekends really were longer. Not that I don't wish this EVERY SINGLE weekend, but I'll be attending to so many things next week and I'm already exhausted just thinking about it. Oh to not have social responsibilities. Perhaps being a recluse would grant me that?
I didn't have to wake up early having gone to mass the night before but then I realized, I'll be working today so I might as well get something non-work done today so I finally get to catch up on uploading things for my 30 for 30 remix. It's crazy how lazy i've been about uploading stuff when i'm not at all behind with the outfits. I don't know how the fashion bloggers do it (complete with legit photo taking) but I'm tired just thinking of it for them.
And though I hate going out on a weekend, much more a Sunday afternoon, duty called for it and so I trekked to work. Though it wasn't actually 'work,' more a lot of waiting around and all, it still made me thankful I didn't get into the usual work my course would dictate. I don't think I could handle the schedule. Still, hanging out with Isha, Reggie and Jae was fun and despite the transportation troubles, it was pretty good. Plus I got to have dinner out with my parents. Lucky me.
ETA: And Djokovic won Wimbledon. I can never watch these things live, cause I get too nervous, so I watch a bit and leave. And though I wanted Murray to win. I don't mind Djokovic either. Nadal was so gracious though in his speech and he played really well. I always get scared when they're up against Nadal just because he's too good. I need to watch Wimbledon live once in my life.

King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Co...
Adam Hochschild
Publication Date
September 03, 1999
Product Description
Customer Reviews
In the 1880s, as the European powers were carving up Africa, King Leopold II of Belgium seized for himself the vast and mostly unexplored territory surrounding the Congo River. Carrying out a genocidal plundering of the Congo, he looted its rubber, brutalized its people, and ultimately slashed its population by ten million鈥攁ll the while shrewdly cultivating his reputation as a great humanitarian. Heroic efforts to expose these crimes eventually led to the first great human rights movement of the twentieth century, in which everyone from Mark Twain to the Archbishop of Canterbury participated. King Leopold's Ghost is the haunting account of a megalomaniac of monstrous proportions, a man as cunning, charming, and cruel as any of the great Shakespearean villains. It is also the deeply moving portrait of those who fought Leopold: a brave handful of missionaries, travelers, and young idealists who went to Africa for work or adventure and unexpectedly found themselves witnesses to a holocaust. Adam Hochschild brings this largely untold story alive with the wit and skill of a Barbara Tuchman. Like her, he knows that history often provides a far richer cast of characters than any novelist could invent. Chief among them is Edmund Morel, a young British shipping agent who went on to lead the international crusade against Leopold. Another hero of this tale, the Irish patriot Roger Casement, ended his life on a London gallows. Two courageous black Americans, George Washington Williams and William Sheppard, risked much to bring evidence of the Congo atrocities to the outside world. Sailing into the middle of the story was a young Congo River steamboat officer named Joseph Conrad. And looming above them all, the duplicitous billionaire King Leopold II. With great power and compassion, King Leopold's Ghost will brand the tragedy of the Congo鈥攖oo long forgotten鈥攐nto the conscience of the West.

Product Description
Customer Reviews
Is Ahmose's divine gift a blessing or a curse?

The second daughter of the Pharaoh, Ahmose has always dreamed of a quiet life as a priestess, serving Egypt's gods, ministering to the people of the Two Lands. But when the Pharaoh dies without an heir, she is given instead as Great Royal Wife to the new king 鈥?a soldier of common birth. For Ahmose is god-chosen, gifted with the ability to read dreams, and it is her connection to the gods which ensures the new Pharaoh his right to rule.

Ahmose's elder sister Mutnofret has been raised to expect the privileged station of Great Royal Wife; her rage at being displaced cannot be soothed. As Ahmose fights the currents of Egypt's politics and Mutnofret's vengeful anger, her youth and inexperience carry her beyond her depth and into the realm of sacrilege.

To right her wrongs and save Egypt from the gods' wrath, Ahmose must face her most visceral fear: bearing an heir. But the gods of Egypt are exacting, and even her sacrifice may not be enough to restore the Two Lands to safety.

The Sekhmet Bed is the first volume of Libbie Hawker's series The She-King, a family saga of the Thutmosides, one of ancient Egypt's most fascinating royal families. Don't miss Book 2: The Crook and Flail

Note: This ebook edition contains a preview chapter of Libbie Hawker's new ancient Egyptian series, The Book of Coming Forth by Day.

The incredible story of an Israeli mission that rescued 103 hostages from a hijacked jetliner.

On June 27, 1976, Air France Flight 139 was hijacked by terrorists and flown to Entebbe Airport in Uganda. In the following agonizing days, Israeli passengers were singled out and held hostage. A week later on July 4, one hundred Israeli commandos raced 2,500 miles from Israel to Entebbe, landed in the middle of the night, and in a heart-stopping mission that lasted ninety minutes, killed all guerillas and freed 103 hostages.

In captivating detail, Stevenson provides a fast-paced hour-by-hour narration from the hijacking to the final ninety-minute mission. In addition to discussing the incredible rescue itself, Stevenson also covers the political backdrop behind the hijacking, especially Ugandan President Idi Amin鈥檚 support for the hijackers, which marked one of the first times a leader of a nation had backed terrorist activities. An illustration of one nation鈥檚 undying spirit, heroism, and commitment to its people in the face of threat, Operation Thunderbolt has become a legendary antiterrorist tale.

Although first written in 1976 (and published within weeks of the event), Stevenson鈥檚 account presents this act of terrorism in a way that is still relevant in our modern-day political climate. A factual account of what could easily be read as sensational fiction, 90 Minutes at Entebbe will inspire, encourage, and instill hope in all readers.

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

In the first volume of his monumental trilogy about the liberation of Europe in WW II, Pulitzer Prize winner Rick Atkinson tells the riveting story of the war in North Africa

The liberation of Europe and the destruction of the Third Reich is a story of courage and enduring triumph, of calamity and miscalculation. In this first volume of the Liberation Trilogy, Rick Atkinson shows why no modern reader can understand the ultimate victory of the Allied powers without a grasp of the great drama that unfolded in North Africa in 1942 and 1943. That first year of the Allied war was a pivotal point in American history, the moment when the United States began to act like a great power.

Beginning with the daring amphibious invasion in November 1942, An Army at Dawn follows the American and British armies as they fight the French in Morocco and Algeria, and then take on the Germans and Italians in Tunisia. Battle by battle, an inexperienced and sometimes poorly led army gradually becomes a superb fighting force. Central to the tale are the extraordinary but fallible commanders who come to dominate the battlefield: Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley, Montgomery, and Rommel.

Brilliantly researched, rich with new material and vivid insights, Atkinson's narrative provides the definitive history of the war in North Africa.

Product Description
Customer Reviews
Jana Petken鈥檚 extraordinary historical epic, The German Half-Bloods Trilogy, reaches its sweeping, heart-wrenching conclusion.

In The German Half-Bloods and The Vogels, Jana Petken followed the turbulent lives of an Anglo-German family as they forged their paths through the Second World War. Now, the conflict intensifies in the Soviet States, North Africa, France, and the growing resistance movement in Poland.

Will Max, Paul, and Wilmot Vogel survive the most ruthless phase of the war to date?

Max takes a path to momentous events in North Africa where he balances undercover games of espionage in decadent Cairo with dangerous missions behind the German Afrika Korps鈥?lines.

Paul鈥檚 loyalty to the Third Reich continues to wane as Germany鈥檚 extermination programmes in Poland expand, and he is stalked by the new Kriminalinspektor, Manfred Kr眉ger. Can he stay one step ahead of a man who has been ordered to destroy him?

Wilmot faces new challenges in the Afrika Korps, but is he mentally and physically prepared to lead his men into Libya鈥檚 fiery desert and against the British 8th Army?

Before the Brightest Dawn, the long-awaited Book 3 of the Half-Bloods Trilogy, concludes the story of the inextricably entangled fates of three brothers 鈥?through a war that becomes increasingly brutal and cruel.

Editorial Review: The Coffee Pot Book Club.

Once again, Petken has presented her readers with a historical rich tale, where nothing is beneath her attention. The hours of research that has gone into this book, and indeed this series, clearly shines through in the impressive prose and the persuasive narrative. Petken is one of those authors who makes history come alive.

I have enjoyed every minute of this series and now feel slightly bereft that it has come to an end. If you are looking for your next World War II historical fiction series which shows both sides of the war, then look no further than The Half-Blood Trilogy. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

I Highly Recommend.

A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
Ishmael Beah
Publication Date
April 01, 2007
Product Description
Customer Reviews

My new friends have begun to suspect I haven't told them the full story of my life.
"Why did you leave Sierra Leone?"
"Because there is a war."
"You mean, you saw people running around with guns and shooting each other?"
"Yes, all the time."
"Cool."
I smile a little.
"You should tell us about it sometime."
"Yes, sometime."

This is how wars are fought now: by children, hopped-up on drugs and wielding AK-47s. Children have become soldiers of choice. In the more than fifty conflicts going on worldwide, it is estimated that there are some 300,000 child soldiers. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them.

What is war like through the eyes of a child soldier? How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But until now, there has not been a first-person account from someone who came through this hell and survived.

In A Long Way Gone, Beah, now twenty-five years old, tells a riveting story: how at the age of twelve, he fled attacking rebels and wandered a land rendered unrecognizable by violence. By thirteen, he'd been picked up by the government army, and Beah, at heart a gentle boy, found that he was capable of truly terrible acts.

This is a rare and mesmerizing account, told with real literary force and heartbreaking honesty.

Long Walk to Freedom: The Autobiography of Nelson Mandela

Customer Reviews
The autobiography of global human rights icon Nelson Mandela is "riveting...both a brilliant description of a diabolical system and a testament to the power of the spirit to transcend it" (Washington Post).
Nelson Mandela is one of the great moral and political leaders of our time: an international hero whose lifelong dedication to the fight against racial oppression in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. Since his triumphant release in 1990 from more than a quarter-century of imprisonment, Mandela has been at the center of the most compelling and inspiring political drama in the world. As president of the African National Congress and head of South Africa's antiapartheid movement, he was instrumental in moving the nation toward multiracial government and majority rule. He is revered everywhere as a vital force in the fight for human rights and racial equality.

LONG WALK TO FREEDOM is his moving and exhilarating autobiography, destined to take its place among the finest memoirs of history's greatest figures. Here for the first time, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela tells the extraordinary story of his life--an epic of struggle, setback, renewed hope, and ultimate triumph.

Three Sips of Gin: Dominating the Battlespace with Rhodesia's fam...

Product Description
Customer Reviews
There is nothing that terrorized Russian and Chinese-backed guerillas fighting Rhodesia's bush war in the 1970s more than the famed Selous Scouts. The very name of the unit struck fear into the very heart and soul of even the most battle-hardened guerillas. Too afraid to even whisper the name amongst themselves, they referred to soldiers of the unit simply as Skuzapu, or pickpockets. It was not for nothing that history has recorded the Selous Scouts Regiment as being one of the deadliest and most effective killing machines in modern counter-insurgency warfare.

The Selous Scouts comprised specially selected black and white soldiers of the Rhodesian army, supplemented with the inclusion of hardcore terrorists captured on the battlefield. Dressed and equipped as communist guerrillas and with faces and arms blackened, members of this elite Special Forces unit would slip silently into the shadows of the night to seek and destroy real terrorist gangs. It became a deadly game of hide-and-seek played out between gangs and counter-gangs in the harsh and unforgiving landscape of the African bush. So successful were the Selous Scouts at being able to locate and destroy terrorist in their lairs that by the mid-1970s, they had begun to dominate Rhodesia's battle space. Working in close conjunction with the elite airborne assault troops of the Rhodesian Light Infantry, the Selous Scouts accounted for an extraordinary high proportion of terrorist killed in Rhodesia's bush war. Not content with restricting themselves to hunting guerrillas inside Rhodesia, the Selous Scouts began conducting external vehicle-borne assaults against terrorist camps situated deep inside neighboring countries with devastating loss to the terrorists.

Survival in this cauldron of battle was never guaranteed. In this special 'deluxe' edition of author Tim Bax's hugely acclaimed Three Sips of Gin, we follow Tim on his missions into the silence of the shadows. As his story unfolds, we begin to understand how he managed to survive and it is here you will find the significance of 'three sips of gin' revealed. Readers of the earlier edition of the book will not want to miss reading this 'deluxe' edition, which, for the first time, is illustrated with dozens of photographs of every facet of Tim's amazing journey, including stark, never before seen images of the war.

Three Sips of Gin is not just a book about war. It is a remarkable book about a remarkable man鈥檚 life journey. Tim tells his story with the wit, candor and self-deprecating humor for which he has become so well known. His amazing journey is one, which few could ever have experienced.

Customer Reviews
鈥淎nother blockbuster! Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates reads like an edge-of-your-seat, page-turning thriller. You will love this book and also wonder why so few people know this story. No one captures the danger, intrigue, and drama of the American Revolution and its aftermath like Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger.鈥?鈥擝rad Thor

This is the little-known story of how a newly indepen顱dent nation was challenged by four Muslim powers and what happened when America鈥檚 third president decided to stand up to intimidation.
聽
When Thomas Jefferson became president in 1801, America faced a crisis. The new nation was deeply in debt and needed its economy to grow quickly, but its merchant ships were under attack. Pirates from North Africa鈥檚 Barbary coast routinely captured American sailors and held them as slaves, demanding ransom and tribute payments far beyond what the new coun顱try could afford.
聽
Over the previous fifteen years, as a diplomat and then as secretary of state, Jefferson had tried to work with the Barbary states (Tripoli, Tunis, Algiers, and Morocco). Unfortunately, he found it impossible to negotiate with people who believed their religion jus顱tified the plunder and enslavement of non-Muslims. These rogue states would show no mercy鈥攁t least not while easy money could be made by extorting the Western powers. So President Jefferson decided to move beyond diplomacy. He sent the U.S. Navy鈥檚 new warships and a detachment of Marines to blockade Tripoli鈥攍aunching the Barbary Wars and beginning America鈥檚 journey toward future superpower status.
聽
As they did in their previous bestseller, George Washington鈥檚 Secret Six, Kilmeade and Yaeger have transformed a nearly forgotten slice of history into a dramatic story that will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next. Among the many sus顱penseful episodes:
聽
路Lieutenant Andrew Sterett鈥檚 ferocious cannon battle on the high seas against the treacherous pirate ship Tripoli.
聽
路Lieutenant Stephen Decatur鈥檚 daring night raid of an enemy harbor, with the aim of destroying an American ship that had fallen into the pirates鈥?hands.

路General William Eaton鈥檚 unprecedented five-hundred-mile land march from Egypt to the port of Derne, where the Marines launched a surprise attack and an American flag was raised in victory on foreign soil for the first time.
聽
Few today remember these men and other heroes who inspired the Marine Corps hymn: 鈥淔rom the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli, we fight our country鈥檚 battles in the air, on land and sea.鈥?Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates recaptures this forgot顱ten war that changed American history with a real-life drama of intrigue, bravery, and battle on the high seas.
Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War

Product Description
Customer Reviews
Already a classic of war reporting and now reissued as a Grove Press paperback, Black Hawk Down is Mark Bowden鈥檚 brilliant account of the longest sustained firefight involving American troops since the Vietnam War. On October 3, 1993, about a hundred elite U.S. soldiers were dropped by helicopter into the teeming market in the heart of Mogadishu, Somalia. Their mission was to abduct two top lieutenants of a Somali warlord and return to base. It was supposed to take an hour. Instead, they found themselves pinned down through a long and terrible night fighting against thousands of heavily armed Somalis. The following morning, eighteen Americans were dead and more than seventy had been badly wounded.
Drawing on interviews from both sides, army records, audiotapes, and videos (some of the material is still classified), Bowden鈥檚 minute-by-minute narrative is one of the most exciting accounts of modern combat ever written聴a riveting story that captures the heroism, courage, and brutality of battle.

'Educating Simon' by Robin Reardon is a book that got to me – to the core. It is a story of Simon, a teenager living in England, on his way to Oxford University. But his mother meets an American, and this whirlwind affair has them relocating her and Simon to Boston. Of course, Simon gets upset. I know a lot of readers have said that in this initial part of the novel, they found Simon unlikable. But for me, I sort of understood. Yes, there is a feeling that he seems to be entitled, but I kind of got where he was coming from, especially since he found that he was being lied to. he then comes to Boston, and obviously, life has changed. Life is different, but in here he starts to blossom as a young gay man, meeting suitors, getting his heart broken, even breaking someone's heart.
Usually when I read a book, I want to go through it quick, especially when I am so engrossed by the story. but here, I found myself stopping, reflecting on what has happened. In a lot of ways, I felt a little envious of his life – how everything is still new, and he has the whole world to discover. I found myself reflecting on my life a bit, oh hell, a lot. This book isn't perfect. I felt that sometimes too much is going in his life, events are getting overwhelming even for the reader. But this book always kept me involved, and more importantly, always kept me reacting, and making me think about life…and love.

The Nintendo Switch is Nintendo's latest console, but yet for some reason, it seems that every copy of the console that has been released to date is hiding a copy of the NES game, "Golf", or at least that seems to be what the folks over at SwitchBrew.org (via ArsTechnica) have recently discovered.
It doesn't seem like the title can be easily accessed by just about anyone, so its existence on the Switch is unclear. It also appears that this isn't just a coincidence as further investigation has revealed that the NES game was designed specifically to be compatible with the Switch, and that it will even support motion controls using the Joy-Con.
This has led to some speculation that maybe Nintendo could be getting ready to launch an NES emulator for the Switch and that they could have been testing out game compatibility and controls with Golf. It could also be an easter egg, although exactly how one accesses it is unclear since according to the poster, yellows8, "it's unknown what exactly triggers launching this title."
When ArsTechnica reached out to Nintendo to comment, all they got was a "ha!", while the folks at Polygon were simply told that they would be looking into it. It is rather mysterious and we'll be keeping an eye out for further developments.

Gut-Healing Chicken Turmeric Soup (Paleo, Keto)
This nourishing, flavorful and soothing soup is one of my favorite gut-healing recipes for overall health. RESTART Approved.
There is currently an epidemic of digestive related disorders in the US affecting more than 62 million people, at a cost of $41 billion per year.
The disturbing thing about this statistic is that most of these disorders are preventable and are the result of a poor diet, toxic exposure (including drugs and medication) and a lifestyle which negatively affects the microbiome (the body's healthy balance of bacteria in the gut).
The condition of the gut has a profound influence on our health. It is from the healthy gut that we enjoy neurological, psychological and immunological health, since a healthy gut can digest and absorb nutrients and water from the very best organic foods. By ensuring the balance of beneficial bacteria (the microbiome) through the consumption of the right foods, we increase our immune system and improve its function.
Eating foods that are processed, laced with preservatives, or loaded with sugar encourages the growth of bad bacteria, parasites, and fungi.
Eating the right foods will optimize the health of your second brain.
These upcoming weeks I'm going to be focusing on some of these gut-healing recipes that will hopefully benefit you and your family.
This soup is one of my favorite gut-healing recipes for overall health. Consuming the right food is one of the most crucial steps to optimal functionality and it isn't a struggle when it tastes this good! Nourishing, flavorful and soothing- this soup will soon become one of your go-to recipes!

At the end of the 19th century when the social season was about to end, a series of murders occurred in London. The deceased victims were all prostitutes; their bodies were cut open, and their uterus deliberately removed. Due to the brutality inflicted on the victims, the police authorities and other prostitutes called the criminal Jack the Ripper.[1]
Angelina Dalles is the true mastermind behind the attacks. Grell Sutcliff, a Grim Reaper, joined her as a co-criminal after they witnessed her first murder.[2] The prostitutes are all patients at the Royal London Hospital, where Angelina worked at. The order in which the victims died corresponded exactly to the patients on her abortion operation list.[3]
Because of Jack the Ripper's disruption to the regular society, Queen Victoria had sent Ciel Phantomhive to investigate and discover his true identity.[1] As noted by Ciel, Jack the Ripper's ways of killing were unconventional and unorthodox, and for this matter alone, it greatly distressed the Queen. The wounds were due to some kind of sharp tool that inflicts quick cuts, resulting in a painful death.[1]
Undertaker had revealed that all the victims have had their wombs removed so accurately and professionally that the murderer had to be someone experienced in the medical field.[4] In order to narrow down the suspects, Sebastian Michaelis had listed the conditions for being Jack the Ripper: a doctor who is knowledgeable about anatomy, has no alibi the day before the incident, and/or is connected with a secret society or black magic.[5]
Identified Victims
- Annie Shepherman[6]
- Mary Ann Nichols[1]
- Mary Jane Kelly[7]
- Jack the Ripper relates to an actual, unidentified serial killer whom attacked in London contemporaneously. He also murdered prostitutes by slitting their throat and mutilating the bodies. However, the historic Jack the Ripper did not always remove body parts and did not stick to just removing the womb.[9]
- In Kuroshitsuji, Ciel never informs Queen Victoria or Scotland Yard the true identity of Jack the Ripper, and in this way Yana Toboso stayed true to history.
- The victims were based on the real victims of the actual Jack the Ripper. Mary Ann Nichols was based on her real-life counterpart;[10] so was Mary Jane Kelly.[11] Annie Shepherman bore a similar name to the real victim Annie Chapman.

Election Projection 2014: District 30
Senate District 30
Incumbent: John Astle (D)
Filed Challengers: Don Quinn (R)
Projection: Lean D Hold
Past Results:
2010: John Astle (D) 51.1%, Ron Elfenbein (R) 48.8%
2006: John Astle (D) 52.9%, Herb McMillan (R) 47.0%
District 30 has seen a major change. It gives up Arnold, Cape St. Clair, and its portion of Severna Park to the 33rd, and picks up south county (most of the former 33B). Senator Barbara Mikulski won the precincts of the new 30 with over 53% of the vote in 2010. While these elections will continue to be close, Democrats retain the edge.
Campaign Finances as of the August 26 filing deadline:
- John Astle (D-inc) raised $136,391, cash on hand $198,263
- Don Quinn (R) raised $3,270, cash on hand $891
House District 30A – 2 members
Incumbents: Michael Busch (D), Ron George (R), Herb McMillan (R) – George was redistricted into the 33rd and made an unsuccessful run for Governor
Filed Challengers: Chuck Ferrar (D), Genevieve Lindner (R)
Projection: Likely D+1
Past Results:
2010: Ron George (R) 19.2%, Michael Busch (D) 18.0%, Herb McMillan (R) 16.9%, Virginia Clagett (D) 15.9%, Seth Howard (R) 15.1%, Judd Legum (D) 14.8%
2006: Michael Busch (D) 17.1%, Virginia Clagett (D) 17.0%, Ron George (R) 16.6%, Barbara Samorajczyk (D) 16.5%, Andy Smarick (R) 15.6%, Ron Elfenbein (R) 15.5%
District 30 has been split into a two-member 30A and a single-member 30B. The new 30A contains the city of Annapolis, south Arnold, and northern Edgewater. With the heavily-Republican areas in Arnold and Severna Park now drawn out of the district, these seats are now much safer for Democrats. Speaker of the House Mike Busch should win here, and former county councilman Chuck Ferrar won the other Democratic nomination. Republican incumbent Herb McMillan will run alongside the unknown Genevieve Lindner.
Campaign Finances as of the June 13 filing deadline:
- Michael Busch (D-inc) raised $350,750, cash on hand $345,289
- Herb McMillan (R-inc) raised $106,245, cash on hand $76,971
- Chuck Ferrar (D) raised $84,545, cash on hand $2,069
- Genevieve Lindner (R) raised $1,520, cash on hand $970
House District 30B – 1 member
Incumbent: Bob Costa (R) – will retire
Filed Challengers: Seth Howard (R), Mitchelle Stephenson (D)
Projection: Lean R Hold
The new 30B is reminiscent of the old 33B: it consists of southern Anne Arundel County including Edgewater, Mayo, Shady Side, Deale, Harwood, and Lothian. Notably absent from the new district is Davidsonville, which remains in the new District 33. Although the conservative stronghold of Davidsonville is not in 30B, the southeastern towns around Deale have been trending Republican in recent years, and combined with the reliably conservative communities along the South River, should tilt this race in favor of a Republican. Democratic candidate Mitchelle Stephenson has run a spirited campaign, and is outraising her GOP opponent, Seth Howard.
Campaign Finances as of the August 26 filing deadline:
- Mitchelle Stephenson (D) raised $32,614, cash on hand $17,788
- Seth Howard (R) raised $19,495, cash on hand $15,226

Keep Defending the Truth About Marriage
By Emily Conley
Now, more than ever, the pressure is on to give up and accept the new sexual morality. Christian organizations, churches, business people, all of us face a choice - to give up or keep standing for what we know is right, even when it's unpopular.
There are at least three reasons (to keep defending truth):
1. Marriage is marriage. True marriage is between a man and a woman because the two genders coming together sexually in a lifelong commitment separates it from every other relationship. Only male-female relationships can produce children, and having parents committed to each other is best for children. A woman can be a great mom, but she can never be a dad, and a great dad can never be a mom.
Dr. Russell Moore wrote recently: "We have no authority to revise what Jesus has handed down to us. Our vision of marriage is not the equivalent of a church constitution and by-laws, adaptable by a majority vote. Marriage is not simply a cultural or legal practice, but is instead an icon of the union between Christ and his church, embedded in the creation (Eph. 5:22-31). Without a Christian vision of marriage, we have no Christian vision of the gospel."
2. Marriage is creative, diverse, and beautiful. Marriage is a lifelong union between husband and wife. Humanity has always been, and will always be, composed of men and women. That can't change, and that's why the timeless institution of marriage can't be changed by a court. Marriage celebrates humanity's diversity, not only because of the complementary of the sexes in marriage, but because throughout history and across cultures, different races and ethnicities have always married.
Yes, the divorce rate is high. Now, more than ever, we must commit to strengthening our own marriages, affirming the value of marriage publicly, and championing the beauty of marriage in our culture.
3. This is not just about marriage. Redefining marriage policy is about more than just creating same-sex marriage – it is about deconstructing the role and nature of marriage in our society.
It's about marginalizing the Christian sexual ethic and enforcing a new sexual morality. Those who disagree with this new morality are first marginalized, then punished. We're already seeing this happen with the city of Houston issuing subpoenas for pastors' communications, the ousting of Mozilla CEO Brandon Eich, and attacks on Christian business people, like Rob and Cynthia Gifford of Liberty Ridge Farm, Jim and Mary O'Reilly of Wildflower Inn, Jack Phillips of Masterpiece Cake Shop, Barronelle Stutzman of Arlene's Flowers, Blaine Adamson of Hands on Originals, Elaine and Jon Huguenin of Elane Photography, and Melissa and Aaron Klein, owners of a bakery called Sweet Cakes by Melissa.
For these people, and the many more who will risk everything for their right to live by their faith, we will continue to stand for marriage. And because we understand what marriage is, we will continue to promote the truth, value, and beauty of marriage in our culture.
Will you stand with us?
Every child comes from and needs BOTH a mother and a father. Same-sex "marriage" intentionally keeps either a mother or a father from the child. Government should protect the child through upholding traditional marriage.
Comments are closed.
There is "a time to be silent, and a time to speak". (Ecclesiastes 3:7). Now is the time to speak, so please speak up and defend children, truth and freedom.
"What the world needs most is a voice that courageously speaks the truth, not when the world is right, but a voice that speaks the truth when the world is wrong." Fulton Sheen

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord[a] is a tower defense video game developed and published by Square Enix for the Wii and distributed through the WiiWare download service. The game is part of the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series.
The game follows the Darklord as she defends her mobile tower from waves of attacks as it travels across the kingdom. Unlike most tower defense games the game is played from a side view of the tower, as the player places units and traps to attempt to prevent enemies from reaching the top of the tower and the Dark Crystal kept there. The game received generally positive reviews, with critics generally praising the game's gameplay and presentation while critiquing a lack of in-game depth.
In My Life as a Darklord, the player is tasked with defending their tower from waves of attacking enemies. Each level takes place in a different part of the kingdom, as the tower is mobile, and consists of multiple waves of attacks. Unlike most tower defense games, the gameplay takes place in a side-viewed tower with enemies marching through each of the tower's floors linearly, rather than through a top-down perspective of a circuitous route. The player places traps and combatants in the floors of the tower, which then cannot be removed. The level ends when the attackers have reached the Dark Crystal at the top of the tower, or when they have all been defeated.[4]
Defeating enemies gives the player Negative Power, which can be spent in the level to place more obstacles, upgrade existing obstacles to more powerful ones, or build more floors onto the tower.[4] Karma is earned for finishing levels, and can be spent between levels to increase the maximum size of the tower or the starting power of the units.[5] The floors come in different varieties, and provide offensive, defensive, and supportive powers to the obstacles placed on them or the enemies walking on them.[4] Each floor has an artifact, which if reached by the enemy is destroyed, in turn destroying all units and traps placed on that floor, removing any status effects the floor provided, and allowing the attackers to move onto the next layer.[5] Traps and units are divided into melee, ranged, and magic categories, with the three types dealing extra damage to each other in a rock-paper-scissors manner.[4]
Each level begins with all obstacles removed, and completing levels earns the player additional types of units and structures to build. The path that the player takes through the levels of the game is not linear; there are side paths that can earn the player additional Negative Power and units. If a level is failed, the player retains some of the Karma they had earned before being defeated. Despite being released for the Wii, there is no support for motion control with the Wii controller. There is additional downloadable content for the game, such as new items or levels.[4] At launch time there were 14 different DLC packs, with more added later.[5] Initial DLC packets included two Mira costumes, three new monster types, two floor types, and three items for various amounts of WiiPoints.[6]
As the title suggests, My Life as a Darklord is a direct sequel to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King. The protagonist, Mira, is the daughter of the Darklord, the antagonist of the previous game. She lives in a tower that she must defend from marauding adventurers by populating it with monsters and traps.[7] The player progresses through the game by surviving hordes of enemies that are on adventures trying to destroy the crystal at the top of the tower.
My Life as a Darklord was revealed at the 2009 Game Developers Conference alongside fellow WiiWare title Final Fantasy IV: The After Years.[7] It was also showcased at E3 2009.[8] A DLC package includes costumes, abilities, and characters from Final Fantasy IV: The After Years.[9] A free demo of the game was available on the Wiiware service from November 2009 to April 2010.[10]
My Life as a Darklord has received generally positive reviews. IGN awarded it an 8.1 out of 10, calling it "an amusing strategy game and a standout title on WiiWare", praising the gameplay and presentation while saying that "The limitations of WiiWare are apparent".[4] They also named it the best WiiWare of the month for July 2009.[12] Eurogamer gave the game a 7 out of 10, praising the depth of the gameplay but complaining that without purchasing any of the downloadable content the player has "little room to really dig deep into the tempting tactical depths that the concept so clearly offers".[5] The game currently has a rating of 73 out of 100 on Metacritic.[11]

22 Amazing Ways To Use Apple Cider Vinegar For Health And Home
Acid flavor and strong aroma – vinegar is a necessary liquid spice for many delicious salads and dishes. But it's much more than that. For years, it has been used in the household as a cleanser, a natural remedy or a cosmetic product. Find out what health benefits this natural elixir has and how to use it in different situations. Of course, it's about apple cider vinegar.
1. Stomach Cramps
If the cause of diarrhea is a bacterial infection, apple cider vinegar will help you with its antibacterial properties. The ACV contains pectin, which will calm down the stomach cramps. Dissolve 2 tablespoons of vinegar in lukewarm water and drink the liquid when you feel pain.
2. Problems with digestion
Before the meal, drink the next folk remedy: in a glass of warm water dissolve a tablespoon of honey and a spoonful of vinegar. Drink 30 minutes before a meal.
3. Throat Inflammation
Once you experience sore throat immediately start with vinegar in order to prevent further spread of the infection. Most bacteria do not grow in acidic environment. Make garag with apple cider vinegar every hour.
4. Lack of energy, overvaluation
Amino acids from apple vinegar act as an antidote. The ACV contains potassium and enzymes that will eliminate fatigue and will bring an influx of energy shortly after you drink 2 tablespoons of vinegar dissolved in a cup of warm water.
5. Cramps in the legs
This old folk medicine is worth a try: dissolve a tablespoon of vinegar and a tablespoon of honey in a glass of warm water and drink the liquid before bedtime.
6. Tooth whitening
In the morning make a gargle with apple cider vinegar, as it helps to remove stains, whilst whitening teeth and destroying harmful bacteria in the oral cavity, thus protecting it from cavities.
7. Windscreen protection from ice.
Meteorologists announce very low temperatures, and you need to travel with your car? In a spray bottle, mix vinegar with water in a ratio of 3: 1 and spray the windows on the evening. Acetic acid does not allow water to freeze on windows. What if there is already ice on the windshield? Spray the ice with the solution to make it easier to clean.
8. Easy cleaning of the microwave oven.
Are you tired of fighting food residues in a microwave oven? Instead of using strong chemicals to clear its interior, try a safe weapon – vinegar. In a deep bowl, mix ¼ cup of vinegar and 1 cup of water and place the liquid to boil for 1-2 minutes in the microwave oven. Do not immediately remove the container and leave the door closed for several more minutes. Then wipe with a cloth. Not only will it be easier to remove food waste, but also destroy the strong smell of popcorn, fish, etc.
9. Itching in mosquito bites.
Mosquito bites cause irritable itching, but ACV can help you. As soon as you notice that you have become a mosquito victim, soak cotton with vinegar and place it on the stinging spot. The itching will decrease, and along with it the swelling itself.
