Chamber Divers: The Untold Story of the D-Day Scientists Who Changed Special Operations Forever

DUTTON

The previously classified story of the eccentric researchers who invented cutting-edge underwater science to lead the Allies to D-Day victory In August 1942, more than 7,000 Allied troops rushed the beaches of Normandy, France, in an all but-forgotten landing. Only a small fraction survived unscathed. It was two summers before D-Day, and the Allies realized that they were in dire need of underwater intelligence if they wanted to stand a chance of launching another beach invasion and of winning the war. Led by the controversial biologists J. B. S. Haldane and Dr. Helen Spurway, an ingenious team of ragtag scientists worked out of homemade labs during the London Blitz. Beneath a rain of bombs, they pioneered thrilling advances in underwater reconnaissance through tests done on themselves in painful and potentially fatal experiments. Their discoveries led to the safe use of miniature submarines and breathing apparatuses, which ultimately let the Allies take the beaches of Normandy. Blast injury specialist Dr. Rachel Lance unpacks the harrowing narratives of these experiments while bringing to life the men and women whose brilliance and self-sacrifice shaped the outcome of the war, including their personal relationships with one another and the ways they faced skepticism and danger in their quest to enable Allied troops to breathe underwater. The riveting science leading up to D-Day has been classified for generations, but Chamber Divers finally brings these scientists' stories--and their heroism--to light.

Tax-Free Millionaire: The Secret to Growing Wealthy Without Losing Your Money to Wall Street or Washington, D.C.

What if everything you thought you knew about money turned out not to be true?Since pension plans have all but disappeared from the retirement landscape, most Americans are on their own to financially prepare for their post-work lives. Unfortunately, many of the options available to save for retirement have set us up to fail. We're either at the mercy of Wall Street, which saddles our mutual funds with enormous fees, plays fast and loose with the rules, and forces us to gamble the money we need to live on in retirement on the whims of the stock market. Or we have to trust Washington, which limits how much we can save for retirement, and is threatening to raise taxes on our future retirement income to pay for decades of reckless spending.There is a third option. It's one you probably don't hear much about. Or if you have heard of it, it's likely from "experts" - who are more concerned with protecting their personal interests than in your retirement needs - who tell you how this third option is an unsuitable way to save for retirement. But this option is the only way to save as much money as you can today without government imposed limits, keep it insulated from market downturns and Wall Street malfeasance, and withdraw it tax-free for retirement income.In Tax-Free Millionaire, financial professional Lance Riddle lays out everything wrong with Wall Street and Washington, D.C., and why nobody who desires a financially stable retirement should trust either of these institutions with their retirement future. But he doesn't stop there. Riddle also reveals how you can generate tax-free retirement income that will never be depleted by the kind of stock market crashes we experienced in 2000, 2008, and other times in history. This book will only take a couple of hours to read, but it can alter your retirement destiny for the better. Tax-Free Millionaire isn't a get-rich-quick scheme, but the lessons it contains can provide hope, a more stable financial future, and a retirement not dependent on the cluelessness of Washington D.C. politicians, or the greediness of Wall Street.
The neighborhoods of Fifth Ward, Fourth Ward, Third Ward, and the Southside of Houston, Texas, gave birth to Houston rap, a vibrant music scene that has produced globally recognized artists such as Geto Boys, DJ Screw, Pimp C and Bun B of UGK, Fat Pat, Big Moe, Z-Ro, Lil’ Troy, and Paul Wall. Lance Scott Walker and photographer Peter Beste spent a decade documenting Houston’s scene, interviewing and photographing the people—rappers, DJs, producers, promoters, record label owners—and places that give rap music from the Bayou City its distinctive character. Their collaboration produced the books Houston Rap and Houston Rap Tapes.This second edition of Houston Rap Tapes amplifies the city’s hip-hop history through new interviews with Scarface, Slim Thug, Lez Moné, B L A C K I E, Lil’ Keke, and Sire Jukebox of the original Ghetto Boys. Walker groups the interviews into sections that track the different eras and movements in Houston rap, with new photographs and album art that reveal the evolution of the scene from the 1970s to today’s hip-hop generation. The interviews range from the specifics of making music to the passions, regrets, memories, and hopes that give it life. While offering a view from some of Houston’s most marginalized areas, these intimate conversations lay out universal struggles and feelings. As Willie D of Geto Boys writes in the foreword, "Houston Rap Tapes flows more like a bunch of fellows who haven’t seen each other for ages, hanging out on the block reminiscing, rather than a calculated literary guide to Houston’s history."
The Christmas story in the Bible is a beautiful account of the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He was born in obscurity in a little town named "Bethlehem," a Hebrew term that means "house of bread." And how ironic, for this man was the Bread of Life, and all who come to Him will never hunger and will never thirst (John 6:35). That is why the story of Christmas, the birth of the Messiah, is so important. Since Jesus is the reason for the season, let us make sure we understand completely who He is. For who Christ is to us determines who we are both in this world and in eternity.

Miles Jesse Knight and Mary Ingles Knight were the 5th Great Grandparents of the author Lance Knight. Lance and his co-author Raymond D. Mason take poetic advantage of the historical and ancestral records of the Knight Family and will produce serial type novels for the reader. Miles Knight is a larger than life character who is morally straight, charismatic, engaging, brave, loving and defender of the less fortunate. Miles quickly adapts to life in his adopted country of America. After having established his own farm and family Miles is drawn into the fray of uprising against the British rulers of the Colonies. Taxation with representation is only one of the grievances of the colonists. Having fought to defend his property and family against hostile Indians and corrupt Loyalist officials of the British, Miles Knight proves to be resilient and determined to survive and thrive. Miles Knight is a big man, standing six-feet-five inches tall and weighing two-hundred-forty-five pounds. His normal cheerful, Irish lilt and lovable disposition belie his dormant Irish warrior spirit. Having grown up in Ireland and been bruised by British rule for many years, he like most Irish people has an affinity for the underdog. He cannot abide the bullying of the underprivileged in society, and the offender, if Miles is present, is quickly and decisively brought to account ... often painfully. Lance Knight and Raymond D. Mason have woven the story through and around actual historical events of the thirteen original colonies of America in the eighteenth century. The reader will go with Miles and Mary through their trials and joys of daily life in Colonial America. The reader will witness the good, the bad and the ugly of society, vicious battles with enemies of the family. The reader will be surprised by the uncompromising values and traits of Miles Knight in his 'new world'. The reader will not soon forget about "Miles Knight: The Immigrant".

The Right to Strike in International Law

This monograph was originally developed as a direct response to the claim made by members of the ‘Employers Group’ at the 2012 International Labour Conference, namely that the right to strike is not protected in international law, and in particular by ILO Convention 87 on the right to freedom of association.The group’s apparent aim was to sow sufficient doubt as to the existence of an internationally protected right so that governments might seek to limit or prohibit the right to strike at the national level while still claiming compliance with their international obligations. In consequence, some governments have seized on the employers’ arguments to justify new limitations on that right.The Right to Strike in International Law not merely refutes this claim but is the only complete and exhaustive analysis on this subject. Based on deep legal research, it finds that there is simply no credible basis for the claim that the right to strike does not enjoy the protection of international law; indeed, the authors demonstrate that it has attained the status of customary international law.
