It is the 1920s, and Patrick Lewis has arrived in the bustling city of Toronto, leaving behind his Canadian wilderness home. Before the real city could be seen it had to be imagined, the way rumours and tall tales were a kind of charting. The US Marines played a prominent role in making safe for democracy the far-flung targets of American imperialism. For most Americans, this bloody history of American conquest is presented, if at all, as a series of heroic adventures to bring seemingly less advanced peoples our ideals and to prepare them to govern themselves. Most of these violent campaigns are now forgotten. In some cases, the nations were annexed, the usually nonwhite populations were subjugated, and puppet governments that protected American interests were installed through force or other persuasion. The US military-often at the behest of American businesses and financial institutions-was at the forefront of interventions in numerous countries from Cuba and Haiti to China and the Philippines.

I served in all commissioned ranks from a second lieutenant to Major-General. “I spent 33 years and 4 months in active service as a member of our country's most agile military force-the Marine Corps. Step by step, phrase by phrase, The Prayer That Turns the World Upside Down explains what these words mean and how we are to pray them. recaptures the urgency and transformational nature of the prayer, revealing once again its remarkable, world-upending power. Far from a safe series of comforting words, the Lord's Prayer makes extraordinary claims, topples every earthly power, and announces God's reign over all things in heaven and on earth. But to the disciples who first heard these words from Jesus, the prayer was a thunderbolt, a radical new way to pray that changed them and the course of history. The opening words of the Lord's Prayer have become so familiar that we often speak them without a thought, sometimes without any awareness that we are speaking at all.

Grann, the author of the acclaimed “Killers of the Flower Moon,” tells it with style. The story of the shipwreck and its aftermath features scenery-chewing characters, unexpected twists and an almost unimaginable amount of human misery. Mutineers abandoned their captain on the island after he fatally shot an unruly crew member in the head. Crew members blamed their imperious captain for their fate and rigid naval order broke down.

Still having the set 15-30 min limit helped me be more critical about my computer use and try not to hang around browsing stuff unnecessarily long. ”Taking care of something” like buying new clothes for the kids almost always takes at least 30minutes, often more and as I wasn’t using my computer that much otherwise (as I was on holiday), it didn’t feel as bad to use the computer e.g. Sticking to my computer usage rules felt most difficult actually.
