The ostensible goal of the controversial Kilpatrick-Dahlgren Raid on Richmond (February 28 - March 3, 1864) was to free some 13,000 Union prisoners of war held in the Confederate capital.

What really happened, and how and why, are debated to this day.

It was John Newhouse’s addiction to the substance that made him a dealer and forced him to move to this airless, inhospitable planet. But when the all-powerful galactic Confederacy declares Flare illegal, the needs of Newhouse and his clientele leave the desperate off-worlder no choice but to sign on as an able seaman aboard a dustwhaler and hunt the giant creatures himself.

Getting our hands on this source material was dangerous, legally questionable, and career-threatening, but I felt it was worth the risk–these aren’t just Hollywood outtakes, folks, these are far-out-takes. Did Duke and JFK have a reckoning in the Oval Office? Did Yoda have anger issues? Did Sean Connery struggle with crappy dentures? The answers to these–and many more unanswered questions–lay within the treasure trove of The Lost Recordings, Vol. 1: Hollywood.

Para Oprah Winfrey e o psiquiatra e neurocientista Bruce Perry, é preciso mudar a forma de ver a vida, focando em compreender as pessoas, os comportamentos e a nós mesmos. Esta mudança de perspectiva começa com uma pergunta diferente, mais acolhedora: “O que aconteceu com você?” Em conversas profundas e tocantes, os dois exploram como os traumas de infância moldam o cérebro infantil e determinam o comportamento na idade adulta.

Until his death in 4 BCE, Herod the Great's monarchy included territories that once made up the kingdoms of Judah and Israel. Although he ruled over a rich, strategically crucial land, his royal title did not derive from heredity. His family came from the people of Idumea, ancient antagonists of the Israelites.

Custom Design Your Own Destiny focuses on both personal and professional empowerment by training the listener to master age progression techniques using self-hypnosis. Dr. Goldberg refers to this method as the "New You" technique, and it allows the user to lay out the various probable future options (five in all) and select the ideal path. The listener is then shown how to program themselves to enter and remain on this ideal path or frequency. This "New You" technique also shows the listener how to maximize each of their paths and to raise their level of consciousness along the way.

On the 8th August 1963 a gang of 15 men stopped a mail train in Buckinghamshire and proceeded to steal sacks of money worth £2.6 million. It was the biggest heist ever carried out in the UK and frontpage news around the world. The mastermind behind this most audacious crime of the twentieth century was Bruce Reynolds. Perhaps the last of the 'gentlemen villains'; Reynolds epitomised that particular breed of sharply dressed post-war criminals who mixed with royalty and movie stars, and never carried a gun. They thrived on adventure and glamour, and the Great Train Robbery was their last ride.
