When the British government assigns counter terrorism expert Colonel J. Booker Ward of 22-SAS to investigate the truth behind the U.S. 9/11 attacks, he rapidly discovers that nothing is quite what it seems. Four commercial jets left U.S. east coast airports early on 9/11 bound for the west coast. Soon afterwards all communications with the aircraft were lost, none of the eight pilots squawked the hijack code or sent a Mayday. Two planes flew into the Twin Towers, one targeted the Pentagon, whilst another crashed into a field in Pennsylvania. Within around 90 minutes the Twin Towers fell in a manner identical to controlled demolition, the Pentagon sustained damage to its west wing inconsistent with a plane crash. Blame was quickly placed on Osama bin Laden and the terrorist organization al-Qaeda. Later, on the afternoon of the same day, the 47-storey World Trade Centre building number 7 also collapsed, even though it had not been struck by any plane. Ward navigates his way through a mine-field of deaths, mysteries and intrigue before reaching his incredible conclusion - which he provides to the British government - the truth behind the 9/11 attacks. A work of fiction based on fact... or could it all be true?

What does it REALLY take to be successful on Upwork? The 20% that will create 80% of your results? That's the point of Upwork Essentials -- to teach you that 20%. When I first started on Upwork, everybody told me I had to pay my dues, build my job history with small projects, get to Top Rated status and THEN I could start landing bigger projects and making real money.Instead, the first project I landed was for $2191.78. Not bad for a complete beginner. I landed several more projects like that and hit over $10K in earnings in my first few months. Years later, I decided to teach what I knew about Upwork. THIS book, though, is a distillation of what I did in those first few months to get started so quickly. A method I've taught now to over 6,000 students, many of whom who have seen a dramatic change in their results in just days. Even more, who've applied the principles long-term and built sustainable freelance businesses for themselves using Upwork.Of course, the book is NOT for everyone. If you're looking for "whiz-bang" or "bright" and "shiny", this book isn't for you because it's really about fundamentals. Understanding how Upwork's Search and Suggestion actually works, building your profile to rank higher in that engine and bidding on jobs that fit the overall strategy (instead of focusing solely on the money).If you're new to Upwork or have been on the platform for awhile, but have struggled... this book is for you. I'll teach you my Rank and Relevance Framework to start getting clients right away and build a sustainable Upwork business.
Radical domestic politics, musical experimentation, advancing technology and the influence of migration from Europe and Britain's enrichment from it, all had their affects on a remarkable year in musical cultural life in the mid-30s. This book looks at the little-known aspect of music and politics in domestic Britain in 1934, a pivotal year in terms of political and cultural developments.Music and Politics in Thirties Britain focuses on the production, reception and interpretation of classical music in relation to the changes of the 1930s. John Morris treads new ground by examining the relationship between music, musicians and fascism - an area overlooked by existing scholarship. The book expertly traces the complexities and contradictions of British music history in the 1930s as musicians like others in the Arts attempted to engage with the political turmoil of the period. John Morris exemplifies the "cultural turn" in studies of British fascism, and also shows the overlap between ideas of the BUF and more progressive musicians. The result is a stimulating addition to existing scholarship which will be of interest to scholars and students alike.
