Microsculpture
"You will never look at a beetle or a moth the same way again." --WIRED"Art meets science to dazzling effect." --The GuardianMicrosculptureis a unique photographic study of insects in mind-blowing magnification that celebrates the wonders of nature and science. Levon Biss's photographs capture in breathtaking detail the beauty of the insect world and are printed in large-scale format to provide an unforgettable viewing experience. Each picture in Microsculpture is created from approximately 8,000 individual photographs. Segments of the specimen are lit and photographed separately using microscope lenses, then "stacked" to maintain sharp focus throughout. These images are then combined to create a single high-resolution file. From start to finish, each portrait takes approximately 4 weeks to create. The project has captured the attention of the world with features in WIRED and New Scientist. Microsculpture has been exhibited at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History and the Xposure 2016 International Photography Festival in Sharjah, U.A.E. It has been viewed by over half a million people so far and will be touring museums around the world from 2017 onward. The entomology collection has significant cultural and historical value, containing the world's oldest pinned insect specimen and many thousands of insects collected by pioneering Victorian explorers and biologists such as Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace.- Shop: buecher

Storm and Steel: Second Wave: World at War 85 Series, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 196min
The second wave has been unleashed...The forces of the Warsaw Pact storm west over the Inner German Border and unleash devastation on the first days of the conflict. Among the NATO defenders of West Germany are Captain Kurt Mohr and his company of Leopard tanks. Outgunned and outnumbered, the men must conduct vital delaying operations until reinforcements can mobilize to stop the communists in their tracks.After a harrowing battle to prevent the Czechoslovakian army from capturing a key bridge over the Danube, Mohr and his tanks are ordered to reinforce a battalion of grenadiers. The mission: buy time for the rest of his panzer brigade to prepare defenses around the key city of Landshut. Attacked by endless waves of enemy tanks, infantry, and aircraft, they must hold up at all costs, even while the pressure mounts and the number of casualties skyrockets.To make matters worse, Mohr’s leadership is challenged at every step by internal politics that jeopardize the mission and his men’s lives. Each critical decision brings the company to the brink of tearing itself apart, posing a threat as dangerous as the enemy itself. Can Mohr keep his men together and stay alive, or will his first day of war be his last?Excerpt from the book:“After increasing his magnification on the PERI scope, Mohr noticed infantry climbing out the roof hatches of several carriers. No doubt, they were there to suppress enemy armor with anti-tank missiles and RPGs while the rest of their regiment rushed forward. It was bad news. With a range of three kilometers, the wire-guided missiles could badly damage or even destroy a Leopard tank. If the infantry got close enough, the rocket-propelled grenades would burrow right through his thin rear armor. The OT-64s had to die.” ungekürzt. Language: English.

Ebola: The History of the Virus and Its Outbreaks , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 80min
It has long been a maxim that it is easy to forget when one is at war who the enemy really is, and that can certainly be said for the Ebola virus, which recently catapulted into headlines and instantly became the most feared disease in the world. In the case of the fight against Ebola, the enemy is not the person who has contracted the disease, nor is it the region where the virus has flourished. The enemy is a microscopic virus that, when seen under sufficient magnification, looks like a piece of loosely knotted rope. While a picture of Ebola under a microscope might look innocuous, it is a living organism that can be killed, but if it is not, it will multiply and evolve much like any other organism, including the human beings it so often kills. Despite the fact Ebola has been notorious for nearly 40 years, its ability to hide and change with the times has made its origins murky and left scientists without a vaccine. The World Health Organization (WHO) was able to identify the previously unknown disease after an outbreak in Sudan that killed a majority of the infected victims in 1976, and a doctor graphically described its effects later that year: "The illness is characterized with a high temperature of about 39°C [102°F], hematemesis, diarrhea with blood, retrosternal abdominal pain, prostration with 'heavy' articulations, and rapid evolution death after a mean of three days." Ultimately named after the Ebola River, the virus was a strain of the Marburg virus, and when it struck various nations in Africa from 1976-2003, it had incredibly high mortality rates and left hundreds dead in places like Zaire, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Most recently, a massive outbreak of Ebola began in Guinea and hit Liberia, where it has left thousands dead and ravaged local economies. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steve Rausch.

When Panic Attacks: The New, Drug-Free Anxiety Therapy That Can Change Your Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 803min
Do you toss and turn at night with a knot in your stomach, worrying about your job, your family, work, your health, or relationships? Do you suffer from crippling shyness, obsessive doubts, or feelings of insecurity? Are you plagued by fears, phobias, or panic attacks? What you may not realize is that these fears are almost never based on reality. Anxiety is one of the world's oldest cons. When you're anxious, you're actually fooling yourself. You are telling yourself things that simply aren't true. See if you can recognize yourself in any of these distortions: All-or-Nothing Thinking: "My mind will go blank when I give my presentation at work, and everyone will think I'm an idiot." Fortune Telling: "I just know I'll freeze up and blow it when I take my test." Mind Reading: "Everyone at this party can see how nervous I am." Magnification: "Flying is so dangerous. I think this plane is going to crash!" Should Statements: "I shouldn't be so anxious and insecure. Other people don't feel this way." Emotional Reasoning: "I feel like I'm on the verge of cracking up!"Self-Blame: "What's wrong with me? I'm such a loser!"Mental Filter: "Why can't I get anything done? My life seems like one long procrastination."Now imagine what it would be like to live a life that's free of worries and self-doubt; to go to sleep at night feeling peaceful and relaxed; to overcome your shyness and have fun with other people; to give dynamic presentations without worrying yourself sick ahead of time; to enjoy greater creativity, productivity and self-confidence.Does that sound impossible? The truth is you can defeat your fears.In When Panic Attacks, Dr. Burns takes you by the hand and shows you how to overcome every conceivable kind of anxiety. In fact you will learn how to use more than 40 simple, effective techniques, and the moment you put the lie to ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kaleo Griffith.

Teeth Healing Through Oil Pulling: The Complete Guide in Natural Oral Care Through the Benefits of Oil Pulling , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 39min
An introduction to oil pulling. What would you say if someone asked you to wash your mouth with oil? "Honestly, that sounds disgusting and greasy, so I'm quite uninterested in doing that to my very own mouth. I feed myself through it - and who wants to feel slime all over his or her mouth?" But when I learned about a therapy that uses oil to cure diseases and oral problems, I admit I was only a little bit fascinated, until I discovered all the benefits it could provide. Let me tell you that this kind of therapy requires you to be patient and responsible. I read a story about an Indian man whose teeth were rattling, which caused extreme pain through his head and jaw. The dentist told him that the rot was too deep, so he needed his teeth extracted. He was afraid to undergo the extraction until six months later, when his friend came to him and said that he knew about an alternative therapist who prescribes sunflower oil as mouthwash. The man needed no extraction and kept all 32 of his teeth intact! If you don't know what oil therapy is about, join us as we discover the health benefits of oil pulling together. The brainchild of this wonderful therapy is Dr. F. Karach, who suggests rinsing the gums and the teeth very carefully with a tablespoon of any vegetable oil. A person must do it very slowly for a good 15 to 20 minutes, three times a day, with an empty stomach. At first, the oil hisses viciously inside your mouth, but as the body's digestive juices dilute it, it becomes thin and white. When the oil becomes milky in color, you should spit it out and immediately brush your teeth. Dr. Karach studied the gargled oil under a 600 magnification microscope and discovered live organisms bathing in it. He warns that the oil is poisonous, so you should never swallow it. The said, the poisons are bacteria embryos that, if not eradicated, could cause viruses and infections. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Miranda Crandall.

Fasting: The Fourth of High Grades of At-Taqwa , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 54min
In a holy saying, the Almighty says: "All deeds of son of Adam are done for themselves, except fasting; it is done for me, and therefore, it is me who gives the reward of it." And in the Holy Quran he, the almighty, says: "[Fast] the month of Ramadan in which the Quran was revealed, a book of guidance for people" when the Envoy of God fasted he felt magnification and appreciation for the Almighty Allah; there and then the meanings and realities of the holy book, the Quran, were revealed to his noble and pure spirit. If a human fasts this month as it should be fasted, they will come to be illuminated by God's light and witness the truth. This illumination helps them distinguish between good and evil and hear the words of the Great Creator, and thus they become guided. "With proofs of guidance and criterion" by virtue of your closeness to the Almighty Allah, you can discriminate between good and evil. At this stage, you will flood with benefits for yourself and for all creation. Discrimination between good and evil is not an easy matter. All the Greeks, the Romans, and the Arab philosophers failed to attain this ability despite their great philosophy. "So that you may magnify Allah and render thanks [good deeds] to him for giving you his guidance". Before belief, the believer is blind-hearted; but when they fast really, they will have their heart's eye opened and thus join the people of heart sight. The Envoy said: "An atom of the deeds of people of heart sight is equal to all deeds of the humans and the jinn." Once the believer truly fasts, they will gain the Night of Valuation. Before this, they are sick in heart, perhaps in body, too; but when they witness this night their spirit will be recovered and their body will be graced with a garment of good health and become cured from all sorts of diseases and ailments.... ungekürzt.

Eat Cake. Be Brave. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
My name is Melissa Radke, and there is a very real chance you have no idea who I am or why I wrote a book. But admit it, you're curious! Even though millions of people seem to like watching my videos bemoaning the trials of parenting, marriage, French braiding, faith, and living life as an anti-aging female, you may still be wondering who let me write a book. I mean, books are written by people who have been interviewed by Gayle King and say things like, "You see, Gayle, I was having a root canal, and I literally died in the chair. I saw heaven. Also, when I came back to earth I could speak Mandarin." Yeah, that didn't happen to me. No Mandarin. Though I have been known to break out in song! (My voice was once described as a "ray of light in a dark world"...but I think my dad was being a little dramatic.) Although if Gayle King were to ever ask me I would tell her, "I wrote this book between taking my kids to the local pool and picking out flip-flops at Old Navy, and the only metaphysical moment I experienced came right after I looked directly into one of those mirrors with 10x magnification." I wrote this book because when I turned 41 I made a decision to be brave. To live brave - bolder and freer. You see, I thought our lives were supposed to change when we turned 40...but mine didn't. Yet every piece of it changed when I turned 41, when I set out to prove that it wasn't too late for me, that careless words wouldn't stunt me and rejection would not stop me. And maybe, just maybe, it will take you reading about the journey I took to finding my sense of self-worth in order for you to rightfully believe in yours. This book is about how all the years of my life led up to the one that changed it. So, cut a big slice and raise a fork... Here's to bravery. Here's to courage. Here's to cake. (And not the crappy kind, like carrot.)PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Melissa Radke.
