11/28/2023 0 Comments Secret government book"The story has all the characteristics of a spy-thriller-concealed film and suicide capsules, capture, interrogation, the drama of train travel and border checkpoints, the mysteries of those met, and countless convoluted escapes (a specialty of his)"- The Vienna Review This is an exciting but often painful recounting of one man’s witness to terror and tragedy."- Booklist, "Those who fear they have been desensitized by the sheer volume of information chronicling Nazi brutality in occupied Europe must read this memoir. A well-deserved revival of the author’s 1944 best-seller. "A disturbing, unique, invaluable record of Poland's suffering and heroism during World War II. "Briskly paced, this is a gripping and immediate account of Nazi brutality from a brave leader of the resistance. Jan Karski was a patriot and a truth teller may his words always be read and his legacy never forgotten."-from the Foreword by Madeleine Albright "In the words of James Russell Lowell’s rousing hymn: 'Once to every man and nation, comes the moment to decide, in the strife of truth with falsehood, for the good or evil side.' Perhaps more than most of us, Jan Karski faced such a choice in the starkest of possible terms, and made his decision as courageously as one could. In a world today where words such as ‘courage’ and ‘heroism’ have been so overused-applied freely from sports to entertainment to politics as to be rendered practically meaningless-Jan Karski was the rare human being who embodied both."- David Harris, Huffington Post, reviewing a previous edition or volume "His wartime saga as officer, as Soviet prisoner, as escapee, in the hands of the Gestapo, and as a Polish Underground activist and courier, is beyond remarkable. If you wish to read about a man more courageous and honourable than Jan Karski, I would have no idea who to recommend."- Alan Furst, author of The Polish Officer, reviewing a previous edition or volume ![]() "Stands in the absolute first rank of books about the resistance in World War II. This definitive edition-which includes a foreword by Madeleine Albright, a biographical essay by Yale historian Timothy Snyder, an afterword by Zbigniew Brzezinski, previously unpublished photos, notes, further reading, and a glossary-is an apt legacy for this hero of conscience during the most fraught and fragile moment in modern history. Karski’s courage and testimony, conveyed in a breathtaking manner in Story of a Secret State, offer the narrative of one of the world’s greatest eyewitnesses and an inspiration for all of humanity, emboldening each of us to rise to the challenge of standing up against evil and for human rights. He was twice smuggled into the Warsaw Ghetto, and entered the Nazi’s Izbica transit camp disguised as a guard, witnessing first-hand the horrors of the Holocaust. ![]() He became a member of the Polish Underground, the most significant resistance movement in occupied Europe, acting as a liaison and courier between the Underground and the Polish government-in-exile. Taken prisoner by the Soviet Red Army, which had simultaneously invaded from the East, Karski narrowly escaped the subsequent Katyn Forest Massacre. Karski was a brilliant young diplomat when war broke out in 1939 with Hitler’s invasion of Poland. With elements of a spy thriller, documenting his experiences in the Polish Underground, and as one of the first accounts of the systematic slaughter of the Jews by the German Nazis, this volume is a remarkable testimony of one man’s courage and a nation’s struggle for resistance against overwhelming oppression. Jan Karski’s Story of a Secret State stands as one of the most poignant and inspiring memoirs of World War II and the Holocaust.

11/28/2023 0 Comments Egyptian scribe languageWe are told that the fire was arson intended to destroy the heretical manuscripts in the library, but the Kolbrin manuscripts – which have been considered heretical on many levels – were secretly housed elsewhere at the time and preserved. How did so much of the text get lost? Well, according to the Introduction, the Kolbrin manuscripts were salvaged from Glastonbury Abbey at the time of the great 1184 fire which destroyed virtually all the buildings and many of its treasures. Although there is a certain chronological rationale to the order of the books, logically I reckon that the Book of Manuscripts ought to appear before the Book of the Sons of Fire rather than after its present position is rather confusing. If you were to sit down and read the Kolbrin from start to finish, chances are you’d be utterly baffled, because what now exists is only a patchwork remnant of the original. The historical accuracy of their introduction has been questioned. They reckon that the Celtic books were written between 20 and 500 AD. They think it might have been written in Egyptian hieratic script after the Exodus of the Jews, then translated into Phoenician script and taken to Britain (among other ports of call) on trading ships from there it would have been rendered into Old Celtic/Brythonic, then Old English, then Biblical English and on into modern English. Instead, the US publishers have tried to reconstruct the history of the Kolbrin text. These paperbacks have numbered paragraphs for easy reference, but do not include the all-important preliminary and end material. ![]() Celtic Texts of the Coelbook: the last five books.Egyptian Texts of the Bronzebook: the first six books.The Kolbrin Bible: 21 st Century Master Edition (complete edition).Yowbooks’ versions are available online in laminated hardback and paperback and include: In 2005 the Kolbrin was pirated and published in paperback as a ‘bible’ by Your Own World Books in Nevada, USA. ![]() E-books of the New Zealand Kolbrin and Kailedy are also available from the Culdian Trust website. The advantage of this New Zealand version is that it carries the all-important Dedication, Foreword, Introduction, Salutation and end-matter (which can also be read on the website) the downside is that the paragraphs are not numbered, which makes cross-referencing difficult. The Trust publishes a number of channelled texts, but insists that both the Kolbrin and the Kailedy come from another source altogether: they were brought over to New Zealand from the UK as typescripts and set out with an introductory history by an elderly merchant seaman who attended gorsedds (councils of Welsh or other Celtic bards and Druids), belonged to a hermetic organisation, and died in the 1990s.Ī hardback cloth version of the Kolbrin is available online direct from Goodeys Bookshop in Auckland and via a web link on the Culdian Trust’s website. People also say the Kolbrin and its accompanying book the Kailedy (an ancient British term meaning ‘wise strangers’) are channelled. And yes, I’ve visited the village of Coelbren looking for clues to the Kolbrin, but so far without success. Some have suggested that Iolo Morganwg himself forged the Kolbrin, but my research says no. It’s probably a garbled version of the Welsh word Coelbren, meaning either the name of a village south-west of the Brecon Beacons National Park, or C oelbren y Beirdd, a supposed ‘druidic’ alphabet allegedly invented by the writer Iolo Morganwg (1747-1826) whose validity has been questioned by scholars. No-one knows what the word ‘Kolbrin’ means. Read the Kolbrin’s underlying story later on in this article and see if you agree. ![]() ![]() I think they deserve an airing and that their core value should be taken seriously. ‘Here be dragons,’ it proclaims, roundly dismissing the book as so much phooey.īefore I wade into what is known about these mysterious books, let me state here and now that I consider much of what is written in them to be jaw-dropping, mind-boggling and, for me, life-changing stuff. Try Googling ‘ Kolbrin’, and you’ll find yourself face to face with a RationalWiki website standing guard at the top of the page like Cerberus. Over the centuries, everything has conspired to bury the books of the Kolbrin, and still does. The Kolbrin is a collection of eleven books, six Egyptian and five Celtic, first published in New Zealand in 1994 by the Hope Trust (now dissolved) and the Culdian Trust, a metaphysical organisation based loosely on the original ‘Culdees’ or Celtic followers of Christianity brought to south-west Britain by Joseph of Arimathea in the 1 st century AD. It has been languishing quietly in print for just a couple of decades. If you’ve even heard of the Kolbrin, you’re in a minority. 11/28/2023 0 Comments Adobe lightroom support![]() Thank you for your persistence and perseverance, we hope that you’re staying safe and healthy.

It doesn't matter if we're talking about Apple, 1Password, or for me, BitWarden. Unless you choose to keep your passwords on your device, no where else, you are at risk. They also seem to have a tendency to downplay the severity. But for LastPass this like the 4th time or something. ![]() Its one thing to be the victim of a breach once and learn from your lesson, i.e., clamp down and tighten your controls. There is a demo available on the website.Ĭlick to expand.Except LastPass has had this issue over and over and over. You can purchase a regular perpetual license for $60 (or you can choose a $20 per year subscription). The best part is that it uses Apple's built-in Auto-Fill functionality, so there is no "extension/plug-in" to install for it to work. It's from a former Apple Developer, and as its name implies, it's less "pretty" than 1Password, but offers almost all the same functions - with the notable exception of Auto-Fill only working in Safari right now. And I hate the fact that you have to install a separate extension for each browser you use along with the app itself. It has also gotten more convoluted in use, in my opinion. It's not that I mind paying for it, it's that it's limited in how and where your data is stored (their servers only). That being said, I left 1Password when it switched to subscription only. Keychain is also somewhat archaic in function, and quite frankly, ugly. It's also limited to passwords used in web browsers (for the most part), while most Password Managers allow you to store passwords for things like FTP sites, other computers/devices, serial numbers and purchase info for software, attachments (such as PDF receipts and license files), credit card and bank info, and much more. Keychain is fine for simple password saving, but fails miserably when the list of passwords grows too large. A whole LOT of people are moving away from 1Password, which is miles better than using iCloud Keychain. 11/27/2023 0 Comments Mr pullover exercise![]() Read more: How To Talk to Customers: 13 Steps 15 customer service email response samples Remember to thank the customer for bringing their concern to your attention and giving the company the opportunity to correct the mistake.

Despite being born as the more attainable Type R, the Civic variants embody the Type R philosophy the maximum thanks to exquisite engineering and engaging dynamics. Honda’s iconic Civic is celebrating two anniversaries this year: 50 years of continuous production and 25 years of the high-performance, race-derived Type R variant, which rewrote the rulebook on what a hot hatch should be. Latest variant becomes the performance halo of the Honda range.Crimson Honda badge has now been applied to six generations of Civic.The Type R name has been synonymous with delivering an unmistakable mix of enthralling dynamics and high-performance engines.Introduced in 1997, Civic Type R has been continuously refined to deliver the ultimate front-engine, front-wheel drive experience.The sort of interior anyone can drive into their forties without wondering if it was time to act their age. The materials are well chosen, the design is clean and the color palette is mostly timeless blacks, whites. But the Integra Type-S interior is more subdued and likely isn’t going to look 15 years out of date in three years. It’s an acid trip geared to youngsters who long ago succumbed to TikTok addiction. The Civic Type R’s interior is hallucinogenic all red carpet and red trim and red stitching. And quick steering doesn’t mean nervous steering. It may be a bit burdensome in commutes, but it’s awful glorious when there’s hero work to be done. And the steering wheel itself is a relatively small diameter, so the car can be directed almost wholly by the driver’s wrists. However, there’s also a customize-able “Individual” mode if your driving style is so peculiar it demands several weekends of futzing to get the thing to a satisfying point.Īs in the Type R, the Type-S steering is a rapid 2.1 turns lock to lock. Not every trip to Costco is a qualifying run. But for most of the time, the normal mode’s softer dampening is the best setting. In Sport and Sport Plus modes the steering is noticeably heavier than in normal and that’s fine. Expect most early arrival Type S models to wear them. And yes, both use the same limited-slip differential. Both cars ride on 107.7-inch wheelbases, have the same front and rear tracks, use the same anti-sway bars fore and aft, are equipped with the same 13.8-inch front and 12.0-inch rear disc brakes, and both run on 265/30R19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires around 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels. All six forward gears and the final drive ratio of the transaxle are common. Both use the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged “K20C1” produced at Honda’s Ohio engine plant. The chassis and suspension design is the same as the Civic Type R’s with a “Multi-Axis” MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension. There is nothing mystical about the Integra Type-S’s mechanical substance. Throw in the big wheels and tires and it’s a good-looking package with only some of the adolescent insouciance of the Civic Type R. The tail is spiced by a carbon fiber deck spoiler and the same three pipe exhaust layout as featured in the Civic Type R. And sorry about my dog pooping in the bushes. Thank you Acura of Santa Barbara for lending out the Integra A-Spec. |
