A detailed history of Nazi anti-partisan warfare on the Eastern Front during Operation Barbarossa. From the start of the war on the Eastern Front, Hitler's Ostheer, his Eastern Army, would wage a vernichtungskrieg, or war of annihilation, in the East. Never before had such a wide-reaching campaign been fought. Preparations for Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union had included the drawing up of plans and allocation of resources to secure the newly conquered territories. These plans included the premeditated murder of many innocent civilians. Adolf Hitler said as much when in July 1941, shortly after Stalin ordered the formation of partisans, he told his Army High Command: 'This partisan war has some advantage for us; it enables us to eradicate everyone who opposes us.' Anticipating resistance to Nazi occupation and rule, Hitler instructed the Ostheer to act ruthlessly, not only on the front lines but in the rear areas as well. When, in July 1941, Stalin ordered partisan forces to be created, the stage was therefore set for the largest and most savage conflict ever waged between a modern military force and a guerrilla army. The scale of the partisan and anti-partisan war on the Eastern Front was as costly and bitterly fought as the struggle on the front lines themselves. Employing thousands of primary source documents and scouring eight separate state archives in six countries over a twenty-two-year period, Antonio J. Muñoz's Hitler's War Against the Partisans During Operation Barbarossa: June 1941 to the Spring of 1942 (Frontline Books, 2025) has produced what can be described as a definitive account of this part of the war behind the front lines in the East during the invasion of the Soviet Union. From the very beginning, the Nazis fought this war ruthlessly, by eliminating not only actual guerrillas, but a good portion of the civilian population. Employing dozens of wartime anti-partisan operational instructions, plus newly-created detailed battle maps and full orders of battle, Dr. Muñoz brings this little-known conflict behind the lines into focus for the very first time. The war behind the lines is detailed by district. This includes the Reichskommissariat Ostland region, which comprised the Generalbezirk Estland (Estonia), Generalbezirk Lettland (Latvia), Generalbezirk Litauen (Lithuania), Generalbezirk Bialystok (Northeastern Poland), and Generalbezirk Weißruthenien (Belarus). The book also covers the guerrilla and anti-partisan war in the Reichskommissariat Ukraine (Ukraine region) as well as in north, central and southern Russia. For Russia proper, anti-partisan operations against the guerrillas are broken down by army group area. Not only are the operations described, but the reader will also learn about guerrilla attacks and how the entire partisan movement grew from year to year, and region to region. Hitler's War Against the Partisans During Operation Barbarossa documents the whole of the beginning of the savage partisan war between June 1941 and the spring of 1942. Never before has every major, and some minor, anti-guerrilla operation been described in such detail.Dr Antonio J. Muñoz lives in New York City. He is a professor of history at Farmingdale State College in Long Island, New York. He is married, has two daughters and two grandchildren. His last work, published in 2018, covered the history of the German Secret Field Police in Greece, 1941-1944.Stephen Satkiewicz is an independent scholar with research areas spanning Civilizational Sciences, Social Complexity, Big History, Historical Sociology, Military History, War Studies, International Relations, Geopolitics, and Russian and East European history.

Suffolk County (/ˈsʌfək/ SUF-ək) is the easternmost county in the U.S. state of New York, constituting the eastern two-thirds of Long Island. It is bordered to its west by Nassau County, to its east by Gardiners Bay and the open Atlantic Ocean, to its north by Long Island Sound, and to its south by the Atlantic Ocean. As of the 2020 United States census, the county's population was 1,525,920,[1] its highest decennial count ever, making Suffolk the fourth-most populous county in the State of New York, and the most populous outside of the boroughs of New York City. Its county seat is Riverhead,[2] though most county offices are in Hauppauge.[3] The county was named after the county of Suffolk in England, the origin of its earliest European settlers. Suffolk County incorporates the easternmost extreme of both the New York City metropolitan area and New York State. The geographically largest of Long Island's four counties and the second-largest of New York's 62 counties, Suffolk County is 86 miles (138 km) in length and 26 miles (42 km) in width at its widest (including water).[4] Most of the island is near sea level, with over 1,000 miles of coastline.[5] Like other parts of Long Island, the county's high population density and proximity to New York City has resulted in a diverse economy, including industry, science, agriculture, fishery, and tourism. Major scientific research facilities in Suffolk County include Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton and Plum Island Animal Disease Center on Plum Island. The county is home to Stony Brook University in Stony Brook and Farmingdale State College in Farmingdale.

Episode 220: Martin Lewison talks about dynamic pricing, theme park history, and connecting the missing link

Martin Lewison, PhD. is an Associate Professor of Business Management at Farmingdale State College on Long Island, NY.  Among the variety of courses Martin teaches, one of them is Theme Parks and Tourism, and much of his time is focused on research in the theme park industry.  As part of his research, Martin visits parks, rides roller coasters, and looks at the guest experience and operations to further understand what is working the best.  Martin brings back his findings, whether through onsite or offsite research and incorporates them into his academic focus, which includes tourism management, mergers and acquisitions, and the economics of pricing.  In this interview, we talk about dynamic pricing, theme park history, and connecting the missing link across history which has led to the technologies and experiences that we have today.   Dynamic pricing "If I can charge the price that everyone's willing to pay, that'll maximize revenue." Many of the elements of pricing that hotels, airlines, and rental cars deal with apply similarly to the theme park industry.  Many years ago, theme parks would paint their admission price on a piece of wood, hammer it into the wall, and that was the price.  This static pricing leaves money in the table, as there is a subset of people who will not pay that price, and there are also people who would pay more for that price.  Flash forward to today, many parks use television screens in all revenue areas, whether it is admissions or even food and beverage, allowing more flexibility in controlling the price.   Slagharen, a theme park in the Netherlands, was one of the pioneers in the theme park industry when it comes to dynamic pricing.  If you charge one price, then that's the price that the customer sees.  If they're willing to pay that price or more, then they'll pay that price.  In an ideal world, you would be able to scan every guest and determine the maximum price that they are willing to pay.  Since we can't see this, airlines and hotels utilize “rate fencing” to maintain revenue by segmenting their customers - in this case, business and leisure travelers.  These segments have different needs which will determine the elasticity of the demand, thus the pricing can be shifted based on the demographic that's being served.   While the airline and hotel model doesn't apply directly to the theme park industry, what theme parks have begun to do is signal guests for what is a premium experience.  Guests who are willing to pay the higher price are given the signal and those who have less elasticity are more likely to buy.   However, you cannot have a conversation about dynamic pricing without talking about the ethics of doing so, and how parks have managed the backlash and criticism.  For instance, the discontinuation of Disney's complimentary FastPass system marked one of the last free programs that guests have to bypass the queue.  Martin's responds by indicating that buying the premium product does in fact entitle the guest to the premium experience, relative to the other guests in the park (even though it may not be premium compared to visiting on another day when demand is less).   In many instances, it comes down to parents making the determination to take their children out of school during offpeak times.  Since much of the world follows a similar school schedule, peak and offpeak pricing encourages people to come during offpeak times, which requires parents to make the decision of whether their kids can miss class, or if they will pay the peak price.   As a management professor, Martin says that he teaches his class that they shouldn't leave money on the table, but as an ethicist, he says that you cannot alienate your biggest fans.   Theme park history "One of the reasons people love theme parks so much is because of nostalgia." When Martin worked on Wall Street, he claims that the stress of working in finance was such a burden that on Friday afternoons, he and his wife would jump on a plane to just about anywhere where they could visit a theme park and ride roller coasters.  To date, Martin has visited more than 800 theme or amusement parks and has ridden more than 2,100 roller coasters.   One of the biggest reasons that the theme park industry has survived, thrived, and evolved, is because the desire to go out and have fun with your family is universal.  While much of the United States is considered to be a mature market for the theme park industry, Martin points out that there are currently major regions that don't have a theme park, and that there are several parks that thrive despite their lack of connection to a large population center.   Martin shares a brief overview of parks that he has visited throughout the world, from obscure attractions in South America, to how meticulously immaculate Tokyo Disneyland is, and how beloved Efteling is in the Netherlands.  Martin suggests that Americans should focus on traveling more, and specifically for enthusiasts, to see more of the theme park industry aside from the usual parks that they visit.   Connecting the missing link “Everything we know about history, we know because somebody went through papers, dug up things, and documented what happened.”   As part of his research, Martin has traced the early roots of entertainment, largely through the World's Fair, long before the technology that we have today was available.  From the early nickelodeon attractions which involved watching movies through turning a crank, and glass that was painted and lit up by a candle, Martin makes the comparison between experiences like this and attractions that we enjoy now, such as the flying theater in Pigeon Forge.  Martin highlights “The New York Experience,” which was a standalone attraction in Manhattan, that was tech-savvy for its time, and later influenced what we observe today as being high-tech.   For more about Martin, you can connect with him through Farmingdale State College, follow him on Twitter, connect with him on LinkedIn, or follow his Flickr account, where he chronicles his adventures.   This podcast wouldn't be possible without the incredible work of our amazing team: Audio and video editing by Abigail Giganan Scheduling and correspondence by Kristen Karaliunas Social media marketing by Kate Kujawa Branding and design by Fabiana Fonseca Email marketing by Sam Bercik To connect with AttractionPros: attractionpros@gmail.com

There are very few female physicians who are as open as today's guest. Despite always wanting to be a Pathologist she was “coerced” into Internal Medicine. Unfortunately most Caribbean medical students will be “advised” to choose a relatively “easier-to-match-into” specialty based on what I refer to as in “insecure advice”. The availability of more IM programs across the country makes for more open positions for IMGs. Now, IM is a great specialty. I would know. I practice hospital medicine as a board certified family physician. But not everyone loves IM and not every IMG should be an internist or a family physician. Dr. West shares her love for pathology and how an uncomfortable situation got her out from a comfortable place to seek her dream in pathology against all odds. She started out PGY-1 in Internal Medicine after 13 interviews but only matched via the NRMP's Supplemental Offer and Acceptance Program. After a horrific experience with a co-worker she resigned from the Internal Medicine program to pursue her true passion in Pathology. She is the definition of courageous, bold and beautiful!

The next five people are examples of that. These are 5 Strangest Murder Motives. 5. Richard Angelo He wanted to play hero. Richard Angelo, a native of Long Island, New York, always wanted to help people. Born to parents who worked at the educational sector, he graduated from highschool in 1980 and took a two-year nursing program at Farmingdale State College. He was known for being an honor student but described as someone who kept to himself. 4. Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme Born to middle-class parents from Santa Monica, California, Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme was known as an active child who loved hanging out with friends. But by age 14, her parents moved to Redondo Beach and Lynette fell in with the wrong crowd. She began drinking and using drugs. Her grades slipped and she suffered from depression. By first year of college, her father kicked her out of the home. While living on the streets of Redondo Beach in 1967, Charles Manson took her in. 3. Walter Seifert At 42 years old, former World War II veteran, Walter Seifert from Cologne, Germany, was diagnosed with tuberculosis. After the war, Seifert became a police officer but was released from his job following his diagnosis.
