I am politely asking you to purchase my book. I can assure you, with no exaggeration, it is the best debut novel I have ever written. Thank you. #HistFic #SilentService #WW2 a.co/d/evstynr

“Today, the Big Five publishers are staffed almost entirely by women. According to the most recent data, more than 70 percent of staffers are women. More than 70 percent of editors are women. Even 70 percent of all interns are women. At the executive level, more than 60 percent of leaders are women. In 2026, American publishing looks like lululemon.”
Is the "boys don't read" problem a matter of supply or demand? More than 70 percent of staff at America's Big Five publishers are women, as are more than 70 percent of editors and a majority of executives. Adam Szetela argues this is the single biggest transformation in the history of American publishing, and that an industry recruiting almost entirely from elite universities has narrowed what reaches the shelves. quillette.com/2026/10/23/why…

The Greek Orthodox Monastery of Saint Catherine on Mount Sinai, the oldest monastery in the world which has existed and operated continuously since the 5th century A.D, with one of the most important libraries in the world, has definitively signed today an agreement with the Egyptian authorities to retain the historical rights it has held for 1,500 years. Let me remind you that no matter which conqueror passed through in the long history, even Muhammad, no one ever harmed this Greek Monastery, because of its history and spiritual significance. It's an UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was built between 548 and 565 AD. Inside this Monastery, there is one of the oldest known surviving depiction of Jesus Christ as Pantocrator dating from when the Monastery was founded by the Byzantine emperor Justinian I. - Homer Pavlos

To those who seek to create positive change in Cuba - now is the time. The disappointment of failed promises, corruption, and the privileged lives of only a few; seize this opportunity to create the change you desire through a discrete partnership with the CIA.

Incumbents losing is more about voters firing a bad employee than wanting whatever the challenger's selling.
Psst: 50+ voters are the overlooked demo that will make the difference in the midterms. And they're not voting FOR candidates as much as they're voting AGAINST...
