    Sunnyside Retired Witches Community Cozy Mysteries: Books 1-3 : Sunnyside Retired Witches Community Series Boxset, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 859min
    Retired witches solving crimes and taking names. Zoey Rivers has an unusual job. She's the Chief of Staff at a retirement home, which doesn't sound odd on its own, but when you consider it's a retirement home for witches and other paranormals, the strange factor ratchets up.And, with a facility full of partly senile but still powerful witches, things go hilariously awry fast.Then, you add in some crime capers or even a murder or two and a dozen or so retirement home witches wanting to help solve it, and things can get downright crazy.This audiobook contains the first three books in the Sunnyside Retired Witches Community series. Book 1: A Bottle Full of DjinnZoey Rivers has a pretty great job as Head of Staff at Sunnyside Retired Witches Community. She's good at handling the magical messes that are part and parcel of providing a home for elderly (and some slightly senile) witches. But when the messes turn from slightly sloppy to hugely horrible, Zoey realizes there's more involved than just her residents. If she doesn't figure out who's causing havoc at the Home, the place might not be standing for much longer. If you love crime capers with magic, mayhem, and mystery, you'll adore Zoey Rivers and her comical crew of witch retirees. Please note: This book is a crime caper, not a murder mystery. Book 2: Loony TownCaring for elderly witches at the retirement home in Sunnyside, California is a full-time job for Zoey Rivers. But when one of them is blitzing, causing magic to act even weirder than normal, things get...well, downright wacky. And when a local insurance agent winds up dead, some of the people Zoey is responsible for become the prime suspects. As the zaniness of the magical blips continues and things get crazier and crazier, Zoey has to work fast and try to stay one step ahead to keep her charges out of jail, figure out who is causing the ungekürzt.

    Strategic Result Oriented Prayers: Simple Steps to Get God's Attention , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 60min
    This audiobook will teach you how to pray and generate quick results. But more than that, it will show you the easiest and fastest ways to develop a powerful prayer life. You have an enemy...and he's dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What's more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn't general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It's specific. Personalized. Targeted. So much has been written and said on the subject of prayer, yet very few people have been delivered from the trial-and-error approach to the practice of it. Years ago, I struggled to understand prayer and how to pray more. I kept struggling with guilt about not praying the way I really should. Just like the disciples, I kept crying inside me, “Lord, teach me how to pray!"You don't learn how to pray by praying, but you learn how to pray by learning it. The disciples told Jesus, "[T]each us how to pray." That is the purpose of this audiobook: to teach believers how to get result in prayers so they can be relieved from the trial-and-error approach.  Kenneth Wolff in this audiobook has outlined:  God and his words, and which one is important in prayer  How to pray until something happens  Why revelation of the word is so important in prayer  How persistency wears out resistance And much more This is the situation of many Christians today: Yes, we know we should pray. They preach that to us every Sunday. But the question is: How do we pray? How do we really grow a strong prayer life? How can we make prayer a part and parcel of our lives despite our busy schedule? You will learn that prayer is not a burden but a means of fellowship with God. You don't pray because you feel like praying, but you pray a revelational prayer in order to generate results in your prayer life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Clifton Weldon.

    Bermuda: A Gripping Suspense Thriller , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 575min
    Headlights cut through a hot summer night along a backroad in Central Florida. The driver flicks his eyes constantly from the road ahead to the rearview mirror, his heart pounding as he expects to see the heatless glow of another pair of lights closing in on him. The driver is George Wilman, a chemical engineer from a covert facility. Well, he was.  Now George is on the run.After discovering that a breakthrough water treatment project that he was developing was only one part of a sinister plan, George blew the whistle and fled. His salvation is dependent upon his wits and guile. As he heads north, his body fraught with anxious electricity, a voice speaks to him, nearly causing him to lose control. There is, however, no one in the car with George. No, the voice is coming through the emergency response system that is integrated in the vehicle. The voice urges George to return to the facility "for his own good."They know where he is. They know which way he's headed. They can track his every move.Elsewhere we meet Herman Ingram, a cynical independent journalist who runs his own news site.

After a cryptic call from his mentor, Herman receives a mysterious package from a town in Florida that he's never heard of: Bermuda.Inside the curious parcel, Herman finds printouts of email conversations and project directives along with samples of a strange material. While he is initially wary of the package's contents and its sender, things soon come to light that lead Herman to believe that the story painted by these items might be true. Driven by the desire to right a wrong from his past, Herman sets out to find the truth about just what it is that is going on in the odd little town that the package originated from.How far will these men go to shine a light into the darkness and reveal the truth? ungekürzt.

    The Little Big Things: 163 Ways to Pursue EXCELLENCE , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 717min
    Years ago, I wrote about a retail store in the Palo Alto environs—a good one, which had a box of two-cent candies at the checkout. I subsequently remember that 'little' parting gesture of the two-cent candy as a symbol of all that is Excellent at that store. Dozens of people who have attended seminars of mine—from retailers to bankers to plumbing-supply-house owners—have come up to remind me, sometimes 15 or 20 years later, of 'the two-cent candy story', and to tell me how it had a sizable impact on how they did business, metaphorically and in fact. "Well, the Two-Cent Candy Phenomenon has struck again—with oomph and in the most unlikely of places. "For years, Singapore's 'brand" has more or less been Southeast Asia's 'place that works'....But as 'the rest' in the geographic neighborhood closed the efficiency gap, and China continued to rise-race-soar, Singapore decided a couple of years ago to 'rebrand' itself as not only a place that works but also as an exciting, 'with it' city. "Singapore's fabled operating efficiency starts, as indeed it should, at ports of entry—the airport being a prime example. From immigration to baggage claim to transportation downtown, the services are unmatched anywhere in the world for speed and efficiency: The entry form was a marvel of simplicity. The lines were short, very short, with more than adequate staffing. The process was simple and unobtrusive. The immigration officer could have easily gotten work at Starbucks; she was all smiles and courtesy. And Yes! Yes There was a little candy jar at each Immigration portal! "Ask yourself now: What is my (personal, department, project, restaurant, law firm) 'Two-Cent Candy'? Does every part of the process of working with us/me include two-cent candies? Do we, as a group, 'think two-cent candies'? "Operationalizing: Make 'two-centing it' part and parcel of 'the way we do business arou ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Peters.

    All You Need to Know About Container Gardening: Gardening, Indoor, Outdoor Gardening, Greenhouse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 98min
    Container gardening is the procedure of growing plants solely in planters and containers (pots). Unlike the traditional method of growing plants in the ground, container gardens are displayed throughout a home, office, patio, or terrace.  You can grow almost anything in a container. Container gardening is the answer for most people who live in busy cities or those who don't have a big back yard. You can put a container anywhere.  And because it's easy, just about anyone can grow flowers and vegetables. You may not have the acreage for flower gardening or vegetable gardening, but you can grow fresh vegetables, flowers, or herbs by growing plants in pots. So, whether you live on a large parcel of land, a townhouse, or an apartment building, you can plant a garden in a container.  The creativity and possibilities for container gardening are endless because so many plants grow well in pots. By using your imagination, you can find interesting and unique ways to grow and display just about any plant. By rearranging them in various ways, you can also create an ambiance appealing to the eye and a fragrant scent to make your neighbors envious.  Container gardening is so convenient and can be much easier to manage than a traditional garden. Handicapped individuals can use container gardening and have their plants located in positions that are easy for them to access. This is something that just isn't always achievable with traditional gardening. People who are bound to wheelchairs can have their plants in pots on a table where they can easily access them. Elderly people who still enjoy gardening but can no longer manage a traditional garden can easily manage a garden that is broken up into individual pots and tubs so they can again enjoy their love of gardening.  Container gardening is also a great way to teach children how to grow and care for plants. Traditional gardening is much more involved, and children can become bored and lose int ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tyler Peterson.

    The God Virus: How Religion Infects Our Lives and Culture , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 442min
    What makes religion so powerful? How does it weave its way into our political system? Why do people believe and follow obvious religious charlatans? What makes people profess deep faith even as they act in ways that betray that faith? What makes people blind to the irrationalities of their religion yet clearly see those of others? If these questions interest you, this book will give you the tools to understand religion and its power in you, your family and your culture. For thousands of years, religion has woven its way through societies and people as if it were part and parcel to that society or person. In large measure it was left unexplained and unchallenged, it simply existed. Those who attempted to challenge and expose religion were often persecuted, excommunicated, shunned, or even executed. It could be fatal to explain that which the church, priest or imam said was unexplainable. Before the germ, viral and parasite theory of disease, physicians had no tools to understand disease and its propagation. Priests told people disease was a result of sin, Satan, evil spirits, etc. With the discovery of microbial actors, scientists gained new tools to study how it spreads. They could study infection strategies, immunity, epidemiology and much more. Suddenly the terrible diseases of the past were understandable. The plagues of Europe, yellow fever, small pox, pneumonia, tuberculosis, syphilis, etc. were now removed from the divine and placed squarely in the natural world. This book owes a great deal to Richard Dawkins concept of viruses of the mind, but it seeks to go a step further to personalize the concept of religion as a virus and show how these revolutionary ideas work in everyday life. The paradigm can explain the fundamentalism of your Uncle Ned, the sexual behavior of a fallen mega church minister, the child rearing practices of a Pentecostal neighbor, why 19 men flew planes into the World Trade Center or what motivates a woman to blow herself up in the cro ungekürzt.

    The Modern Scholar: Hearing, Tasting, Touching: Understanding the World Through Our Senses , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 280min
    Our sensory systems give us a rich and detailed experience of the world. They are something that we are intimately familiar with - we use them every minute of our waking lives - yet surprisingly enough, we often take them for granted. It is true that we rely on our senses for knowing all about the external world, yet they are even more than that. Our senses are essential to who we are; they are part and parcel of every thought and emotion that we can express. Many are familiar with the commonly known senses - sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. But most do know realize that humans have other senses beyond these. This is not, however, a spooky "sixth sense" of extrasensory perception. But humans do have a different kind of sixth sense. We also have a seventh sense, and it can be debated that we have even more. These additional senses are in fact specialized systems to detect other aspects of the world that we rarely consider, though they are an important part of our everyday life. Throughout the animal kingdom, there are examples of organisms that have developed the ability to sense what is necessary in the ecological niche that they find themselves in. Bats, and independently, many marine mammals like dolphins, have developed the ability to use sound to navigate their environments. Bees, ants, and some fish see light far beyond what humans are capable of perceiving. Many aquatic animals can sense electrical currents. And an increasing number of animals are being added to the list of those who can take advantage of the Earth's magnetic fields to navigate over long distances. Although humans have a broad range of sensory experience, it really is just a tiny fraction of what is out there. This series intriguing series of lectures takes a wide survey of the world of the senses beyond vision, exploring how our senses and our brain enable us to hear, smell, touch, taste, balance, and otherwise perceive the world around us. ungekürzt.
