A PENDERGAST NOVEL
Preston & Child return with their #1
bestselling series, confronting FBI Special
Agent Pendergast with the one challenge
he never expected: a partner.

Stephen Pressfield, Tides of War. It’s a novel about Alcibiades, an Athenian leader and general during the time of Socrates and the long Athens + allies vs. Sparta + allies war. He ended up working at various times for Athens, Sparta, and even the arch-enemy Persia. The political situation described kind of reminds of Eve nullsec-- moving parts, faithlessness, alliances of convenience.
D-Day: The Battle for Normandy is the first
major account in twenty years to cover the
invasion from June 6, 1944 up to the libera-
tion of Paris on August 25. it is the first book
to describe not only the experiences of the
American, British, Canadian and German
soldiers, but also the terrible suffering of the
French caught up in the fighting. Beevor
draws upon his research in more than thirty
archives in six countries, original accounts,
and diaries in what will surely be hailed as
the consummate account of the Normandy
invasion.

All nice, however, it omits the Russian and the USSR and the Eastern front,
which Eastern front is possibly equal to or if not greater than the Russians.

"From China’s incongruous Caucasian mummies and Egypt’s
Great Sphinx to a lost Germanic civilization and extraterrestrial
influences, Forgotten Worlds presents a panoramic view of Atlantis,
as broad as it is comprehensive. As such, Patrick Chouinard offers
us previously unconsidered, even startling possibilities for Plato’s
perennial kingdom.

----HISTORY OF GREAT SCHOOLS
One might think that humanity would have peace and prosperity after
the defeat of the thinking machines and the formation of the Landsraad
League to replace the old League of Nobles, but the battles had just be-
gun. Without an external enemy to fight, we began to fight ourselves.
----ANNALS OF THE IMPERIUM
… After being enslaved for a thousand years, we finally overwhelmed the
forces of the computer evermind Omnius, yet our struggle is far from
ended. Serena Butler’s Jihad may be over, but now we must continue the
fight against a more insidious and challenging enemy–human weakness
for technology and the temptation to repeat the mistakes of the past.

(looks like they try to hide problems with this false reference to cover other bad investments and attribution of real estate value while trying to extort property with illegal economic boycott, I even have the proof of it in 3 criminal courts now, and it’s already in other government systems than the original government issuing this and initiating those attacks, as reported to the US courts and US president due to treason. - Not to mention they also try to interfere against my engagement for marriage, and are causing so much problems that I will try to get another citizenship due to their abuse against my family. - As well as other negative propaganda in acts of war against my work, to try to justify crediting themselves to discredit me.)

An adaptation of Dale Carnegie’s timeless prescriptions for the digital age.
Dale Carnegie’s time-tested advice has carried millions upon millions of readers for more than seventy-five years up the ladder of success in their business and personal lives. Now the first and best book of its kind has been rebooted to tame the complexities of modern times and will teach you how to communicate with diplomacy and tact, capitalize on a solid network, make people like you, project your message widely and clearly, be a more effective leader, increase your ability to get things done, and optimize the power of digital tools.
Dale Carnegie’s commonsense approach to communicating has endured for a century, touching millions and millions of readers. The only diploma that hangs in Warren Buffett’s office is his certificate from Dale Carnegie Training. Lee Iacocca credits Carnegie for giving him the courage to speak in public. Dilbert creator Scott Adams called Carnegie’s teachings “life-changing.” To demonstrate the lasting relevancy of his tools, Dale Carnegie & Associates, Inc., has reimagined his prescriptions and his advice for our difficult digital age. We may communicate today with different tools and with greater speed, but Carnegie’s advice on how to communicate, lead, and work efficiently remains priceless across the ages.
We can do a full Shakesperian review or whatever ass I’m an avid reader of many genres.
But rather than reading, im researching on stocks for Monday, or rather a few hrs. It’s going to be a good day, but not eve, real money.
Yes, I don’t read stocks, since I don’t have enough money to invest. They want me to get a university degree for that so that I can sue them for it.
But they are stupid.
I started with very little knowledge and about $3K?..I’m up $1500 in a month, it’s educated gambling basically. As I can sit on stocks …I wait untyil they profit, only buy bids etc…
So easy, investors/fund manages want to make it sound hard with the language. But once translated to english…
I had $12,000 in tax refund but was lucky to get the courts trying to forfeit it, so, even if I made over 1 trillion from stocks, there would still the be the case, and so, they offer me to get a military law school course, due to abuse.
The courts would just steal my money so I have no use for it until I have enough income for it.
I have to pay bills for my family as well to feed them and pay for their medicine and health insurance and secure housing somewhere safe where the government is not going to try to extort the property and forfeit it.
I’m in 3 courts for this, going on 11 courts.
It’s been in over 8 courts so far.
Right during my marriage, so this goes back to 1983.
It’s also good enough for medical school with the highest medical ranking officers of the US Army for over 6 generations.
That’s over $260,000, over 1 million damage in fact, and worst.
Edit:
By the way, I remember the Data Processing Thread,
which had a reference to a 5th edition book used for system analysis and design methods, which are used for professional work.
Whitehound replied Jun '18,
“I hope you can find a book on “how to make a point”, because this book isn’t teaching you it.”
Well, it turned out that it does, and that they are just lying and trying to spread false propaganda and false news which I have to file in small claims court today, and report them to military authorities, so that I can leave the country I am being attacked from them in, or find out if they are trying to team up with others to repeat the same thing in the new country, which I could use to study psychology since they are either doing psychological warfare , or , they are systematically attacking and intending to cause psychological damage with delays and entrapment.
Additionally, all of the reference to the 5th editions were parts usable to create a system or analyse a system.
Of course, it can also be protected for copyright and other intellectual property rights, and those abusers will never teach my child.
The attacks against it can also be used for military system, their integrity is good enough that it already is used for military systems, which use scientific data, which can also be used to detect the level at which an entity would try to make the scientific data and research to be unscientific or , without merit, for bad reasons or for their own greed, interfering against benefit to society, so that they can try to credit themselves for discredit and seek forfeiture.
They are probably the same people asking to get a security clearance to be admitted into a computer course, which has nothing to do with it at all in fact, except for the fact that it is illegal to engage into piracy (as they are) when taking a computer science course.

That’s the more than condensed version because the original is over 8 editions long, since 1986, includes most AI businesses and more, and is over 8,000 pages long, as well as CASE tools.
Computer-aided software engineering ( CASE ) is the domain of software tools used to design and implement applications. CASE tools are similar to and were partly inspired by computer-aided design (CAD) tools used for designing hardware products.
The project we had to implement was to solve problems of overcharging, as well as calculate profit from the implementation of the new system.
That was 9 to 10 years before 2001, and then planned for the Y2K solution which was foreseen 8 years before.
Edit:
By the way, it what I would use to design hardware.
Both CASE and CAD.
I already had my first CAD given to me in around 2002 by a Finnish Engineer living in Canada (who was possibly Jewish).
I gave it back to him (including the licensed key, worth $5,000) since I had no contracts for it, and that he could have made a better use of it, depending.
So, when you design a system, the maintenance phase which include other workers and possibly training is easier to deal with.
It is where the system life-cycle will live, time-wise.
But that is why you design a system for,
that is why you design a system to do,
and it is how a system is intended to work,
as in business, for business work, and that is how the business is working.
Edit 2:
My whole family does have a biographic sketch from the US Army, but that it not given for everyone to read it.
In fact, even the courts omit to, and so, the evidence had to be entered against them in courts (and in other courts).
It’s not a joke, they spent $50,000 on it in the 1950s and it’s now worth over $500,000 in 2019 money (if the bottom line is money and that is all anyone can understand , or wants to capitalize on).
There’s also interference against it in relation to my family’s marriage, and a case that originated against the party in charge of the ceremony for using the wrong document and the wrong form to fill out that document, for something which should not be a joke, or, as they may, I was only joking, you know…
So anyways, that was back then, now it’s infinitely worst than that, and many wars are fought over it.
