Der zwölfte Planet : Wann, wo, wie die ersten Astronauten eines anderen Planeten zur Erde kamen und den Homo Sapiens schufen (3930219581)

"Der zwölfte Planet" liefert eindrucksvolle Belege für die Existenz eines zusätzlichen Planeten in unserem Sonnensystem: Nibiru - der Heimatplanet der Anunnaki, "jene die vom Himmel auf die Erde kamen". Zecharia Sitchin schildert in diesem Ausnahmewerk die Ursprünge der Menschheit anhand von Erkenntnissen aus der Archäologie, der Mythologie und antiken Texten und dokumentiert außerirdische Einflüsse auf die Erdgeschichte. Er konzentriert sich dabei vorwiegend auf das alte Sumer und enthüllt mit beeindruckender Genauigkeit die vollständige Geschichte unseres Sonnensystems, wie sie von den Besuchern eines anderen Planeten erzählt wurde, der sich alle 3.600 Jahre der Erde nähert. "Der zwölfte Planet" ist das kritische Standardwerk über die Astronauten der Antike - wie sie hierhergelangten, wann sie kamen und wie ihre Technologie und Kultur die menschliche Rasse seit Hunderttausenden von Jahren beeinflußt. "Aufregend ... glaubwürdig ... sehr provokativ un

Single Mothers Are for Grown Men, Only! (0991033663)

Our understanding of single mothers is broken. Not like, "The x-ray came back and you may need a cast," broken; but "It's time to evacuate. The levy has been demolished," broken. Mentally, our streets are flooded with ignorance, yet we simply paddle along as if this is the way things are going to be. All things common sense seem to be immersed under the murky waters of, "She should've known better," "She should've been married first," and "It's her fault he ran out. She's the one who chose him." It's bizarre that in a world where cars can drive themselves and phones can recognize thumb prints, we're still committed to such ignorance, but that's about to change. For the last few years I've posted articles, memes, poems, and even viral videos with tens of millions of views on this subject, but like sandbags to an ocean, they've gotten swallowed whole without us, as a society, moving forward one inch

Treasonable Doubt : The Harry Dexter White Spy Case (9780700613113)

Whittaker Chambers and Elizabeth Bentley shocked America in 1948 with their allegations that Communist spies had penetrated the American government. The resulting perjury trial of Alger Hiss is already legendary, but Chambers and Bentley also named Harry Dexter White, a high-ranking Treasury official. (Hiss himself thought that White had been the real target of the House Un-American Activities Committee.) When White died only a week after his bold defense before Congress, much speculation remained about the cause of his death and the truth of the charges made against him. Armed with a wealth of new information, Bruce Craig examines this controversial case and explores the ambiguities that have haunted it for more than half a century. The highest ranking figure in the Roosevelt and Truman administrations to be accused of espionage, White played a central role in the founding of the United Nations' twin financial institutions, the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. For years

Nancy and Bess are excited when they run into their old friend Maggie Rogers in River Heights. As little girls, Bess and Nancy were in dance classes with Maggie, until she moved away to attend a prestigious ballet academy. Now Maggie is part of a ballet company made up of the most promising young dancers in the state, and the company is in town to perform Sleeping Beauty. This performance is especially important because the famous dance critic Oscar LaVigne will be in the audience. A good review could catapult Maggie's career...but a bad one could ruin everything. In the days leading up to the big show, strange things start happening. First someone tampers with Maggie's phone, making her late to rehearsal. Then Maggie's face is violently scratched out of all the official show posters, and she finds her dres
