The Maine House II
The authors of the highly successful The Maine House continue their quest to record and celebrate the authentic Maine houses of their childhoods--a Maine that is in danger of vanishing. "The Maine House [shows] us the dignity and aching beauty, in preserving Maine's quirky architectural past."--Maine Homes by Down East Spend any amount of time in Maine--a weekend, a summer, a lifetime--and its impression lasts forever. When The Maine House was published in 2021, the reception was astonishing. Over four printings and across the world, The Maine House sounded a rallying cry, summed up perfectly in one of dozens of reviews, that it "crafts a plea to preserve a living history belonging to individual, family, and state; a visual call to recognize these homey structures and others like them as 'extraordinary gifts.'" The Maine House II moves beyond the authors' cri de coeur; they're on a mission. Through 30 homes--inland, inshore, and on islands--Maura McEvoy, Basha Burwell, and Kathleen Hackett highlight the beauty and importance of preservation, restoration, thoughtful renovation, and low-impact living in the place they love the most. From visionaries who saw home in a post-and-beam barn, a lighthouse, a former hotel, and a boat shed to families resolutely leaving generational homes largely untouched (some continuing to live off the grid) and still others honoring vernacular architecture by living with it in surprising ways, The Maine House II captures the myriad ways one can live in this singular place--in the present--while preserving the past and ensuring its future.

The Complete Works of Monty Dogge
Wyming Wendlesday started back in 2017 and originally began with a silly weekly poem just to start everyone's day with a smile.It became very popular and kind of took on a life of its own with Monty the self-titled Poet Newfiette penning verses about his life in Wigwam, observations of his hoomans, and his agony of sharing a home with Cookie aka the Heffalump aka the Hairy Hippo, and of course the Spangles.When the 'Cwissymouse' poems started in 2015 they were so popular that we had the idea of asking for a donation to charity leading up to their release the week before the big day.This resulted in thousands of pounds being raised for animal welfare, veterans and children's charities.Monty passed in 2022 but not before sharing his life with everyone through his stories and poems. This book has been a labour of love for me and a lovely way to honour his memory.I hope you enjoy the complete works of Monty Dogge and they bring a smile to your day. I know that would make him very happy.

Destiny Stopped Screaming
Mojo Magazine "Compelling from the first page, an assiduously researched biography of The Sound's frontman". ****Record Collector Magazine: "Compelling biography of an underappreciated cult hero. This homage to the late Adrian Borland is a labour of love, exhaustively researched and deep on detail. A devotional tribute to a tormented titan". ****Louder than War: "A book of great integrity and substance.The detail is vivid and tangible. As much a reference book as a biography and on both counts it works. Thoroughly recommended".David Quantick: "A fascinating and emotive insight into Adrian Borland's career. Very powerful".Penny Black Music "Destiny Stopped Screaming is an informative but sympathetic account of the life of a troubled but gifted songwriter" . Mick Mercer "A stunning biography of one of Britain's best songwriters. What keeps you surging through it is Simon's love of the music and detailed coverage and examination of the songs, something a biography would usually ignore. Normally the bulk of any biography covers the best known years and then everything tails off, but here we have consistent coverage, which is brilliant. This is a glorious tribute, one of which he can be very proud." . Post-Punk.com: "A riveting biography, this work stands as a significant tribute to the haunting brilliance of the British singer, songwriter and guitarist." (sic) Magazine: "Heavisides' hefty tome gives us honest insights into the multi-faceted, real human being at the heart of it all. It is an exhaustive, excellent and, for fans like me, essential read."Carlo van Putten: "Masterfully balances empathy and objectivity. A captivating portrait of Adrian's musical journey with The Sound that gives the reader a new understanding of the power of music to change and touch lives and hearts."Adrian Borland, was singer/guitarist and main songwriter with The Sound, a band who between 1979 and 1987 released seven albums that never failed to be at the very least full of passion and raw emotion. They made their debut with the "Physical World" EP but it wasn't until the release of the "Jeopardy" album in 1980 that it became clear how special the band was. Two more albums for WEA followed, "From The Lions Mouth" and "All Fall Down", which resulted in the band leaving the label. Indie label Statik signed the band and released "Shock Of Daylight" and "Heads & Hearts" along with the double live album "In The Hothouse". A move to the Belgium based Play It Again Sam brought with it the band's final album "Thunder Up". They disintegrated at the end of 1987.Luckily Adrian continued with a solo career that whilst different in many ways to The Sound, still displayed all the rare qualities that made them such a loved band.His final solo album 5:00 A.M, avoided echoing past glories but re-established the qualities for which the band had become renowned and successfully placed them in a contemporary setting, making this an ideal staring point for the uninitiated. His last finished work was the second White Rose Transmission album "700 Miles Of Desert".Sadly Adrian often fell into deep depression, with lyrics from his last songs indicating his state of mind before he took his own life on April 26 1999.Adrian's albums showcased the unflinching honesty and sensitivity that was his forte. In the end it was maybe that self-same sensitivity that made life just too painful for Adrian. This is his story.

Aquiline
In the late 1960s and early 1970s the CIA built unmanned drones disguised to resemble birds that were intended to fly missions over denied areas including in Cuba, the Barents Sea, China, and Vietnam. The Aquiline drones were based at Area 51. This collection of declassified memoranda gives a fascinating insiders' view of the program.The document provides a comprehensive overview of the Aquiline project, which involves the development and operation of covert drone vehicles for intelligence collection purposes. It discusses various aspects of the project, including requirements, logistics, procurement procedures, security measures, personnel manning, operational procedures, budgeting, objectives, system development, payloads, operational costs, research and development studies, and program management. The document also mentions the involvement of different offices and departments within the CIA, as well as collaboration with external contractors. It emphasizes the need for secrecy and the use of advanced technologies for data analysis.This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes five types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; three essays to increase viewpoint diversity: Grounds for Dissent; Red Team Critique; and MAGA Perspective; and Nutshell Summaries for each page; and Notable Passages.AQUILINE is a restrictive access involving a small powered glider capable of flying thousands of miles, emplacing devices, interrogating previously emplaced devices, and performing special reconnaissance or collection missions. It will present bird-like radar, acoustic and visual signatures designed to blend with the natural signal environment; Possessing a range in excess of 1000 miles, it will be capable in its advanced form of hovering-over-targets for as long as 120 days.it is agreed that the program will be known (at Area 51) by the unclassified nickname Project M277. In this manner, the R50 prototype program name AQUILINE can be slowly phased out and the new operational program name AZAN5 established once the flight test phase is completed. ... Project AQUILINE will be known by the classified SECRET operational designator RECHARTER within OSA areas of responsibility... The objectives, state-of-art achievements, and mission purposes of Project RECHARTER will be controlled at the TOP SECRET level. A major difficulty in the emplacement concept has been the need for the 'mother ship' to execute the penetration and drop at a high altitude in order to avoid detection and/or interception. Black box payloads designed for emplacement in this manner tended to be large and heavy -- a few hundred pounds not being unusual. Discussions by ORD with other offices within the Agency (OSA, OSP, FMSAC, OSI, OEL, and other potential users within the clandestine services) gave substance to the developing AQUILINE concept. It was agreed that low altitude drops of small, lightweight, low power solid state sensors would have a high probability of surviving the emplacement. Indeed, the same qualities could decrease the probability of detection of the black box once emplaced." The initial AOC goal will be round-trip missions against coastal areas in Cuba, the Barents Sea, China, and Vietnam. Reconnaissance and ferret-type missions could provide low altitude imagery, ELINT and SIGINT. Feasibility of these objectives were studied in a simulated operational test against Tallinn.

End of Flower Power
This is not an analysis or a dissertation on the rise and fall of the movement known as Flower Power. It is but one of many stories that took place at the end of that memorable era.It is the last year of the tumultuous sixties when Case, a young officer in the Merchant Marine, signs on as third mate on the S.S. Flower Power, an old rusty freighter on its last legs bound for India. Within a day he realizes that the crew is scraped together from the four corners of the world and that that motley bunch of ruffians is commanded by a chaotic Greek captain whom he nicknamed "Peachfuzz".During a stopover in Manila the animosities between the crew members vanish as George, an able-bodied seaman, meets the prostitute Carmen and falls for her like a ton of bricks. She is the perfect answer to his troubled soul. He intends to marry her and adopt her little daughter at any cost.But how is he going to pull this off in just eight hours?The entire crew conspires to sneak the future bride and her three-year old daughter aboard so that the captain can marry them once they are on the high seas. Peachfuzz however is unaware of the covert operation. He'd just as soon throw the stowaways overboard to avoid any hassle with the authorities.But Case, who is inadvertently drawn into this conspiracy, has a secret weapon with which he can convince Peachfuzz into performing a marriage on the high seas in the best of maritime traditions. After chaotic preparations and a hilarious ceremony George and Carmen were joined in marriage by Captain Peachfuzz. It was a wedding to remember and it fused the bitterly divided crew into a solid corps by coming to the rescue of a desperate shipmate.Was this all part of a predetermined plan or was it pure coincidence that this took place on a ship with the very same name as that of the roaring Flower Power Era? Or was this union of two lovers just one of the last hurrah's of this turbulent decade?
