    Silver Lining: Silver Cove, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 375min
    Sarah has always been torn between two worlds - the carefree, easygoing world of her hippie mom, where life is all about helping others and building good karma, and the real world, with real responsibilities, like paying bills, and getting to work on time - values obviously gleaned from dad's side of the family. She has nothing but fond memories of her father. He was always there for her, and clearly loved her mother more than she thought possible, despite mom's overtly eccentric behavior. Losing dad was tough, but Sarah's been reduced to being the girl with the crazy mom, a reputation that's not likely to increase her chances of landing her dream promotion at the resort across the bay. Especially with the new competition. Ben is an attractive, sophisticated, and savvy businessman, clearly there to destroy her chances of getting the job. Her luck couldn't be worse. With an obvious attraction and closeness forming between the two, Sarah discovers that Ben's motives may not be as clear as she first thought. What's he really doing there? Is she being played? Benjamin Rothschild has come to the popular upscale resort strictly for business. There to evaluate Sarah for a new position, he can't help being drawn in by her sensual charm and free-spirited nature. But for some reason, this passionate beauty has it out for him. What has he ever done to her? With so much confusion and something obviously lost in the translation, he'll have to do everything in his power to convince her that his intentions for her are true. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Awakening: Entangled Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 390min
    Christina swore she'd never return to her hometown of Hidden Creek, Georgia again. Her upbringing there could only be described as torture at best. She never asked for the unusual abilities she possesses, but was quite certain they would torment her the rest of her life. After spending years hiding and trying to escape the judgement and abuse of her family and the cruel people of Hidden Creek, she's finally come to terms with her gift. Now she wants nothing more than to forget the past and get on with her life. But with her parents' sudden passing, it now falls on Christina to return and take care of everything. With her parents gone, she finally hopes to close this dark chapter of her life and leave Hidden Creek behind for good. That is, until she finds herself mysteriously drawn to the intoxicating gentleman next-door, who seems to share a strange and unusual bond with her. Michael has spent years in the military and on the police force in Atlanta. After almost losing his life in a brutal betrayal by his crooked partner, he's decided to leave the force and take up residence in sleepy, stress-free Hidden Creek, where he meets Christina, a mysterious, raven-haired beauty with uncanny abilities. He'd always thought of himself as a rational person. He didn't buy into in crazy things like ghosts, spirits, demons, or other paranormal witchcraft nonsense. But now he must be losing it, as a strange apparition begins appearing at the foot of his bed each night. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Roy Samuelson.

    Chimera: Universe Eventual, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 676min
    The fate of Earth's first colony rests on the shoulders of a pair of misfits: Theo Puck, a rogue hacker with a gift for speaking to machines, and Selena Samuelson, a brash but talented pilot with a dark secret in her past. Earth went silent over a decade ago. No contact, no resupply. If something doesn't change, the colony will go extinct. The only way to restore communication with Earth is the ancient colony ship Chimera. Two centuries of disrepair has taken its toll on her - the shipboard AI that allows travel between distant stars is lost in unending sleep. She must be woken and the ship rebuilt for a desperate return journey to Earth. The mandate to repair and crew the Chimera seems like a game to Theo - one he isn't invited to play. Angry at having been overlooked, Theo hacks his name onto the list of those selected to crew the Chimera, a decision he soon regrets. A brutal murder changes everything: Theo must make it to the Chimera or his family will suffer terrible consequences. Piloting an ore trawler is the only life Selena has ever known until an industrial accident strands her aboard the Hydra, the orbital station responsible for rebuilding the Chimera. After a chance encounter, AI suggests that Selena might have a far larger role to play in saving the colony than she - or anyone else - ever imagined. Theo and Selena's futures become intertwined as they carve out places for themselves in the crew that will navigate the Chimera back to Earth. However, behind the scenes, a brilliant sociopath has set events in motion that could not only destroy their lives but doom their colony as well. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Grand Pursuit: The Story of Economic Genius , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1214min
    In a sweeping narrative, the author of the mega-bestseller A Beautiful Mind takes us on a journey through modern history with the men and women who changed the lives of every single person on the planet. It’s the epic story of the making of modern economics, and of how it rescued mankind from squalor and deprivation by placing its material fate in its own hands rather than in Fate. Nasar’s account begins with Charles Dickens and Henry Mayhew observing and publishing the condition of the poor majority in mid nineteenth-century London, the richest and most glittering place in the world. This was a new pursuit. She then describes the efforts of Marx, Engels, Alfred Marshal, Beatrice and Sydney Webb, and Irving Fisher to put those insights into action - with revolutionary consequences for the world. From the great John Maynard Keynes to Schumpeter, Hayek, Keynes’s disciple Joan Robinson, the influential American economists Paul Samuelson and Milton Freedman, and India’s Nobel Prize winner Amartya Sen, she shows how the insights of these activist thinkers transformed the world - from one city, London, to the developed nations in Europe and America, and now to the entire world. In Nasar’s dramatic account of these discoverers we witness men and women responding to personal crises, world wars, revolutions, economic upheavals, and each other’s ideas to turn back Malthus and transform the dismal science into a triumph over mankind’s hitherto age-old destiny of misery and early death. This idea, unimaginable less than 200 years ago, is a story of trial and error, and ultimately transcendent, rendered here in stunning narrative. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    What causes Momentum Returns? Evidence from different Asset Classes (eBook, PDF)
    Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,0, University of Münster, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses possible asset-specific and cross-asset explanation approaches for momentum appearance. The two main threads in literature, stock momentum and momentum of other assets, are discussed separately and subsequently checked for overlaps. The paper also deals with the definition of momentum as an anomaly itself in context of rational and behavioral concepts. It uncovers selected contrary observations and outlines possible conformities. Capital market anomalies are a phenomenon triggering ongoing debates about the trading behavior of investors on financial markets. They are contradicting the core ideas of the efficient market hypothesis (EMH), which considers financial markets efficient and investors rational and fully informed. One of the EMH key hypotheses, especially supported by Fama and by Samuelson, is the principle of random walk. If this principle holds, the prices of assets on financial markets are only influenced by public and firm-specific news, develop apart from that completely random and are not predictable. However, empirical observations question the random walk principle. They tend to indicate specific patterns in asset price developments instead of complete randomness. Doubts on the EMH and the random walk principle thus cannot be neglected. A common answer to these observations is the existence of additional risk factors which are currently not covered by the applied pricing models. Current asset pricing models mainly rely on Markowitz (1952) and the modern portfolio theory as well as on the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) from Sharpe (1964), Lintner (1965), and Mossin (1966). These models are rather a benchmark for asset pricing than perfect constructions covering all and any existing risk factors which are relevant for an assets price formation.

    Running Throughout Time: The Greatest Running Stories Ever Told
    Every runner's story is part of a great tradition of running stories. Running Throughout Time tells the best and most important of them. From Atalanta, the heroic woman runner of ancient Greece-when goddesses advised on race tactics-to the new legends of Billy Mills, Joan Benoit Samuelson, and Allison Roe (the modern Atalanta), this book brings the greatest runners back to life. It's the perfect runner's bedside storybook. Colorful, dramatic, alive with human insight and period detail, these stories are also full of new discoveries. Within these pages, readers will find the true story of Pheidippides and the Battle of Marathon; they will read text from the world's first newspaper report of a footrace (1719). The book uncovers important evidence of the first road races, the origins of cross-country running, and the earliest marathons, telling the true story of the origins of the marathon and just why racers must run exactly 26 miles, 385 yards (42.2 km). Further, it tells more modern stories, like those of women's marathon activist, Kathrine Switzer. Roger Robinson is a vivid storyteller and a lifelong elite runner who knows the sport deeply and passionately, yet he is also a meticulous scholar who digs and digs until he gets the story right. He shares his findings here, such as those from his investigation of the tragedy during the 1928 Olympics when most of the women running the 800 meters collapsed in distress. Roger has been everywhere in running: elite runner, masters champion, stadium announcer, TV commentator, researcher, and journalist. The stories in this book are selected because each is significant in the greater story of running and because Roger can bring something new and exciting to their telling. From variant translations of ancient poems, dusty stacks of old newspapers, crackly handwritten notebooks, and carefully studied film footage, Roger has done every kind of homework to get these unforgettable stories right. All runners should read this book to really know whose footsteps they run in and why running is worthy of the effort they give to it.
