The Cold War gets magical when spies brush shoulders with sorcerers in this genre-defying serial created by Lindsay Smith and Max Gladstone. This is the 5th episode in the second season of The Witch Who Came In From The Cold, a 13-episode serial from Serial Box Publishing. This episode written by Lindsay Smith. The Ice plots their move on the Hosts, enlisting local muscle whose loyalties are divided. Newcomer Van turns heads at the boxing ring and Bar Vodnář alike. Zerena grooms Tanya and Andula for her own secret endeavors. Welcome to Prague, 1970: the epicenter in a Cold War of spies and sorcerers. The streets are a deadly chessboard on which the CIA and KGB make their moves, little dreaming that a deeper game is being played between the Consortium of Ice and the Acolytes of Flame, ancient factions of sorcery. Praise for The Witch Who Came in from the Cold: "Those who like to mix magic, spycraft, and secret history should enjoy this—it may please fans of Stross’s Laundry series." —Locus Magazine "Full of fast-paced, high-intensity action paired with magic at a level that has not been seen until now, with a cliff-hanger that lets readers know that the game is not over and has only just begun." —The San Francisco Book Review "The Witch Who Came in from the Cold is a chilly evocation of a different kind of Cold War." —Charles Stross, author of the Laundry Files series “Take a double shot of Le Carré, a dash of Deighton, a twist of Quiller, a splash of Al Stewart’s The Year of the Cat, throw in a jigger full of elemental magic, mix well ... and voilà! The Witch Who Came In From The Cold.” —Victor Milán, author of The Dinosaur Lords "The occult love child of John le Carre and The Sandbaggers." —Marie Brennan, author of A Natural History of Dragons "As soon as I saw that, I was instantly hooked, and the pilot jacked the intrigue to the max. Two female Soviet spy witches, an American spy with something weird drilling magical holes in his head, and a world of secrets within secrets in a locale where old-world myth and the Cold War face off, pedal to the metal . . . it’s awesome. Or as we said in 1970, Far out. " —Sherwood Smith, author of Crown Duel "The installments are easy to read one at a time, but the tangles of alliances, secrets, and shocking double-crosses will have readers up all night mumbling, “Just one more.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Initial efforts to photograph U.S.S.R. territory from converted bombers proved both unsuccessful and highly provocative and prompted the United States to develop specialized reconnaissance systems. Beginning with the U-2 in the mid-1950s and continuing with a series of increasingly sophisticated imaging satellites, this study demonstrates how the United States eventually was able to accurately appraise the military forces of the Soviet Union."--BOOK JACKET.

America's culture is moving in a new and dangerous direction, as it becomes more accepting and tolerant of dishonesty and financial abuse. Tamar Frankel argues that this phenomenon is not new; in fact it has a specific traceable past. During the past thirty years temptations and opportunities to defraud have risen; legal, moral and theoretical barriers to abuse of trust have fallen. She goes on to suggest that fraud and the abuse of trust could have a widespread impact on American economy and prosperity, and argues that the way to counter this disturbing trend is to reverse the culture of business dishonesty. Finally, she presents the following thesis: If Americans have had enough of financial abuse, they can demand of their leaders, of themselves, and of each other more honesty and trust and less cynicism. Americans can reject the actions, attitudes, theories and assumptions that brought us the corporate scandals of the 1990s. Though American society can have "bad apples," and its constituents hold differing opinions about the precise meaning of trust and truth, it can remain honest, as long as it aspires to honesty.

Indigos are awaking in great numbers to the gentle call of a living universe. Some are cherished and nurtured, but most are forced to struggle with the emotional pain of misunderstanding. Yet, each will feel the same need to explore their own 'Indigo-ness' and their own destiny of evolution and contact. Indigos are here to help humanity achieve its oldest dream - universal harmony. They will do it by living in service-to-others in the hope of seeing humanity overcome its service-to-self failings. When that happens, our civilizations will no longer grow quickly, erode slowly and then die suddenly. Rather, they will last and they will know love. As we evolve, off-world races will freely contract us, and Indigos will become our honest liaisons, for they will instinctively know friend from foe. All are born to this role, but not all are destined to fulfill it. This book is dedicated to those who do, and it offers helpful suggestions for future encounters. Are You an Indigo? The term "Indigo" describes the hue of the aura (life energy color) that surrounds an Indigo, according to psychic Nancy Ann Tappe, but this is not the only measure. An Indigo will also possess a high IQ, an indomitable sense-of-self and a strong psychic intuition. Born to a natural knowing of things, they quickly sense goodness, compassion, evil intent and crisis in others. How do true Indigos define themselves? Through their feelings. Do these questions sound familiar? Am I a recent genetic freak of nature, as the "experts" suggest? Why am I so out-of-sync with this materialistic, consumption-driven society about me? Why, when all I crave is oneness with the universe, do others subjugate me with emotional abuse and drugs? Is there any purpose to my life that can possibly justify all this emotional pain? The true Indigo instinctively knows that the answers to such questions are found within. Only in this way, can they resonate completely. Regrettably, the quest within is all-to-often marked by the loneliness and emotional pain caused by those who do not understand Indigos, or worse yet, fear them. Still, each Indigo must eventually accept the responsibility of his or her own knowledge quest as no two are exactly alike. For this reason, the author wrote this book in the hope of giving comfort to young Indigos, by sharing knowledge gained through his own quest. It is also to say to every Indigo, "Each of us follows a different quest, but we all feel and understand your pain. Put it aside and revel in your 'Indigo-ness' and know that you are not alone "

Know Be Do is the WWJD of this generation. In the tradition of What Would Jesus Do? Know Be Do is more than a book. Its a movement. It transforms the Christian walk from an uphill battle into a guided tour with God. Most Christians lead a life of frustration, futility, and failure. They feel they never live up to Gods standards and live out His commands. They define Christianity by what they do and dont do. Theyre living the Christian life upside down, and they dont even realize it. Know Be Do turns the Christian life right side up. With powerful stories and winsome wit that make it an engaging read, Know Be Do shows you how to intimately, biblically know God, how to accept and employ your position in Christ (be), and how to act on His authority and appropriate His power (do). It connects the dots of the Christian life in a way that makes sense out of a maze of disconnected Christian concepts and equips you for a lifelong and ever-fascinating journey of walking the Christian life right side up.
