Secrecy: Silence, Power, and Religion by Hugh B. Urban (.PDF)
š® Secrecy: Silence, Power, and Religion by Hugh B. Urban (.PDF) The powers of political secrecy and social spectacle have been taken to surreal extremes recently. Witness the twin terrors of a president who refuses to disclose dealings with foreign powers while the private data of ordinary citizens is stolen and marketed in order to manipulate consumer preferences and voting outcomes. We have become accustomed to thinking about secrecy in political terms and personal privacy terms. In this bracing, new work, Hugh Urban wants us to focus these same powers of observation on the role of secrecy in religion. With Secrecy, Urban investigates several revealing instances of the power of secrecy in religion, including nineteenth-century Scottish Rite Freemasonry, the sexual magic of a Russian-born Parisian mystic; the white supremacist BrĆ¼derSchweigen or āSilent Brotherhoodā movement of the 1980s, the Five Percenters, and the Church of Scientology. An electrifying read, Secrecy is the culmination of decades of Urbanās reflections on a vexed, ever-present subject. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Hugh B.

Guns of Navarone Series by Alistair MacLean (.ePUB)
š® Guns of Navarone Series by Alistair MacLean (.ePUB) The Navarone Series deals with a trio of agents working for the S.O.E. The Special Operations Executive was a British intelligence organization created at the beginning of World War Two to engage in espionage, sabotage, and other activities as needed in enemy territories in Europe. Quite often the agents attached to this group were highly trained military officers and enlisted men but when working on an S.O.E. mission, they were there covertly and in civilian clothing making them spies under the Geneva Convention and therefore without any allusions as to their treatment and ultimate fate should they be captured. The term "Navarone" is used to describe the activities of three key people and comes about because the island of Navarone was the location of the first mission, the one that brought the trio together in the first place. They would be reunited on that Greek island briefly for the second mission but would then leave to head to the actual assignment. The two remaining recorded adventures have nothing really to do with the Navarone location except in context of the three men. The three men are Keith Mallory, Andrea Stavros, and Donovan "Dusty" Miller. Mallory is a New Zealand officer serving with the British forces for some time, holding the army rank of Captain. He was before the war an avid mountain climber making him an indespensible man in the cliffs of Navarone. The fact that he had been operating in and around Crete and was an expert in that area made him even more valuable. Andrea Stavros is a former Lt. Colonel in the now defunct Greek army, working with the Resistance and having no love whatsoever for the German invaders of his homeland. He is also a close friend and sometimes adversary of Mallory as the two had worked together before. Dusty Miller is an American explosives expert who had signed up with the R.A.F. and was brought along because he was the key man for actually destroying the artillery objective of the first mission. Once he had proven himself to the others, it was natural that he remain with the team although his dour personality coupled with his pessimism always made him a cheery complement. Mallory and Stavros like and dislike each other. Miller doesn't really like anyone, or at least trust anyone. Together they make a great team. spyguysandgalsdotcom ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Alistair Maclean Size 8.0MB Category Fiction > Mystery/Thriller > War Thriller > WW2 File Type ePUB 1.

GĆ¢teau: Simplicity of French Cakes by Aleksandra Crapanzano (.ePUB)
š® GĆ¢teau: Simplicity of French Cakes by Aleksandra Crapanzano (.ePUB) James Beard Awardāwinning writer Aleksandra Crapanzano shares the secrets of the cakes Parisians bake at home: the gĆ¢teau in its many splendors from the simplest yogurt cakes to deceptively easy bĆ»ches de NoĆ«l, from nut tortes to boozy flourless chocolate cakes, from yuzu madeleines to rum-soaked babas. When we think of French desserts, we tend to imagine ornate creations and confections. Perhaps we envision a tarte Tatin, but rarely a homemade cake, whipped up on a weeknight with little fuss. But that is exactly what Parisians make and eat. GĆ¢teaux are simple, delicious cakes, both sweet and savory, served to family and friends. You might expect elaborate home baking to rival the extraordinary pa^tisseries in town. Who hasn't wondered if the French are born knowing how to make the exquisitely fine layers of puff pastry for a mille-feuille, or how to poach a soft meringue for an i^le flottante? As food-columnist Aleksandra Crapanzano spent time with Parisian friends who were cooking at home, navigating children and careers and gathering friends around their table at night, often impromptu, always delicious, she realized that the real magic is a certain savoir-faire, that distinctly French know-how that blends style and functionality in every aspect of life. GĆ¢teau gets to the essence of Parisian home cooking. By and large, the French do not try to compete with their chefs, nor with their boulange'res and pa^tissie'res. But many Parisians are natural cooks, and Aleksandra has yet to meet a Parisian who didn't finish dinner with a little something sweet, effortlessly made and casually served. The trick is having an arsenal of recipes that, once mastered, become blueprints, allowing for myriad variations, depending on what's in season and what's in the cupboard. It is a practical approach, and the French are nothing if not practical. That is the savoir-faireāfrom tying a silk scarf just so to popping a ga^teau in the oven without anyone even noticing. When you know what you're doing, there's no need to overthink it. It looks easy because it is easy. While the Paris culinary world is experiencing a fresh vibrancy, certain traditions remain intact and may surprise in their modernity. For example, French cakes have less sugar. The pure taste of apples is not masked by cinnamon, and vanilla is never a given. A gateau may be lightly glazed, dusted with cocoa or confectioners' sugar, drizzled with rose water, but rarely heavily iced. A splash of brandy, a squeeze of lemon or a thin blanket of ganache elevates even the easiest of cakes in mere minutes. And then there are savory cakes made with cheese, herbs, ham, baked into a delicious loaf. These cakes salĆ©s are ideal for picnic lunches, accompanied by a salad and a glass of Sancerre. GĆ¢teau includes cakes for birthdays, summer feasts and winter holidays, last-minute dinner parties and school lunches, as well beloved regional recipes and guest contributions from superstar Parisian bakers. Practical, simple, and filled with over 150 rigorously tested recipes and charming illustrations, GĆ¢teau celebrates every day and sometimes fanciful French cakes in all their glory and is destined to become a classic. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Aleksandra Crapanzano Size 41MB Category Non-Fiction > Food & Drink File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/xok3Vrz2ykIg https://devuploads.com/uueztcx5tg6t

The End Is the Beginning by Jill Bialosky (.PDF)
š® The End Is the Beginning by Jill Bialosky (.PDF) Jill Bialosky, the poet behind the ātender, absorbing, and deeply moving memoirā (Entertainment Weekly) History of a Suicide, returns with a lyrical portrait of her motherās life, told in reverse order from burial to birth. When Iris Yvonne Bialosky died in an assisted care facility on March 29, 2020, it unleashed a torrent of emotions in her daughter, Jill Bialosky. Grief, of course, but also guilt, confusion, and doubt, all of which were compounded by the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic which made it impossible for Jill to be with her mother as she was dying and to attend her motherās funeral. Now, with a poetās eye for detail and a novelistās flair for storytelling, Jill presents a profoundly moving elegy unlike any other. Starting with her motherās end and the physical/cognitive decline that led her to a care home, The End Is the Beginning explores Irisās battle with depression, the tragedy of a daughterās suicide, a failed second marriage, the death of her beloved first husband only five years into their young marriage, her joyful teenage years, and the trauma of losing her own mother at just eight years old. Compounding her challenges of raising four daughters without a livelihood or partner, Irisās life coincided with an age of unstoppable social change and reinvention, when the roles of wife and mother she was raised to inhabit ceased to be the guarantors of stability and happiness. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Jill Bialosky Size 5MB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs File Type PDF š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/p46U6bbPd49X https://devuploads.com/mpbwp92zk0vv

š® The Boeing B-17 (FlightCraft) by Ben Skipper (.ePUB) The B-17 Flying Fortress, a term coined by a Seattle Daily Times report in 1935, was a quantum leap in offensive air power. Designed for a nation whose foreign policy was still deeply isolationist, and an Air Corps whose in-service bomber fleet was dominated by bi-planes, the B-17, with its four engines, huge wingspan, enviable payload ā almost double that of contemporary bombers ā and all metal construction, ushered in a new age. For an aircraft of its size and relative complexity the B-17ās design and development was heralded by a host of key innovations with the unveiling of the XB-15 (Boeing 294), including engine access crawl ways, enhanced endurance and massive load capacity. Within a year the Y1B-17 or Model 299 had refined ideas from the XB-15 and produced a sleek, attractive-looking aircraft. By 1937 all testing had been completed and the first 12 aircraft were delivered to 2nd Bombardment Group for assessment. ā»ļø Book's Info: Author Ben Skipper Size 79MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type ePUB š„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/uuWvYMHvx5KL https://devuploads.com/pu6najbojz9e
