As a Captain in the fledgling American Navy of 1801, young Lowell West sets sail on his first command with little hope of distinguishing himself in battle. Instead of a dull campaign, however, sealed orders, veiled political tension, and unseen threats from a more dangerous sea power throw West into the midst of a treacherous, daring mission right into the teeth of the powerful Spanish navy. The clash of sword against sword, the fury of the tumultuous ocean, and the thunder of rolling cannon broadsides come vividly alive in this nautical adventure of the most engaging kind!

For nearly a century, the name Submarine Signal meant something special to its thousands of employees, to its many competitors, and to practitioners of the art of underwater acoustics the world over. From its modest beginnings in 1901as Submarine Signal Company, through its elevation to a full division of Raytheon Company in 1963, to its submergence into a new organization in 1998, SubSig, as it was known, was a vital part of the free world's defense, an important contributor to underwater acoustics and undersea technology. Though never the subject of an "organizational excellence" survey, it became home and family to the thousands of employees who made SubSig what it was—unassuming yet confident, relaxed yet hard-working, but with an accommodating persistence. History will record that SubSig was a pioneer in sonar and radar technologies. This book is an attempt at describing the events and people that made it a unique place.

Self-awareness, self-belief, self-esteem, self-acceptance, self-love, self-renewal: how would you like to transform your "self"? Self-help guru Brian Mayne guides readers on an inward journey of personal discovery that will lead them to greater fulfillment and confidence. The results are amazing, yet his method is beautifully simple: Mayne explains how to create a "Self Map" that activates the whole brain and serves as a reminder of the person you’d like to become. This map literally acts like a subconscious command, and stimulates you to act upon your desires; by regularly meditating on it you can integrate your "low-self ego" with your "High-Self spirit" to become your authentic, natural True Self.
