    The Satires , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 199min
    Quintus Horatius Flaccus was born on December 8, 65 BC in the southeastern region of Hellenized Italy. He died on November 27, 8 BC. Horace was the son of a freedman of modest means. In the civil war between Antony and Octavian, he threw in his lot with Antony and fled along with the rest upon their defeat at Phillipi in 42 BC. His subsequent discovery by Maecenas and eventual rehabilitation with the Augustan regime was one of history's most fortunate reconciliations. Horace developed a number of interrelated themes throughout his career, including politics, love, philosophy, ethics, his own social role, and poetry itself. The Satires are forms of "blame poetry", and both have a natural affinity with the moralizing diatribes of Cynicism. The Satires include a strong element of Epicureanism, with frequent allusions to the Epicurean poet Lucretius. The Satires also feature some elements of Stoic, Peripatetic, and Platonic dialogues. In short, The Satires present a medley of philosophical programs, dished up in no particular order...a style of argument typical of the genre. This translation is by Christopher Smart. ungekürzt.

    A novel set in the underbelly of upstate New York that's as hard-boiled and punchy as a swift right hook to the jaw, a classic noir for fans of James Ellroy and John D. Macdonald Isaiah Coleridge is a mob enforcer in Alaska - he's tough, seen a lot, and dished out more. But when he forcibly ends the money-making scheme of a made man, he gets in the kind of trouble that can lead to a bullet behind the ear.

Except a teenage girl disappears, and Isaiah isn't one to let that slip by. And delving into the underworld to track this missing girl will get him exactly the kind of notice he was warned to avoid.At turns brutally shocking and darkly funny, heartbreaking and cautiously hopeful, Blood Standard is both a high-tension crime novel and the story of a man's second chance - the parts of his past he will never escape, and the parts that will shape his future.  ungekürzt.

    Don't Know Much About the American Presidents , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1428min
    For more than 20 years since his New York Times best seller Don't Know Much About History first appeared, Davis has shown that Americans don't hate history, just the dull version dished out in school. Now Davis turns his attention to what is arguably the most important and most fascinating subject in American history: our presidents. From the heated debates over executive powers through the curious election of George Washington in 1789 and, for more than 200 years, up through the meteoric rise of Barack Obama, the presidency has been at the heart of American history. From the low lights to the bright lights, from the intellectuals to the disasters, from the memorable to the forgettable and forgotten, Davis tells all the stories. He uses his entertaining question-and-answer style to chart the history of the presidency itself as well as debunk the myths of America's leaders and recount the real stories of these very real people. For history buffs and history-phobes alike, this entertaining audiobook is packed with memorable facts that will change your understanding of the highest office in the land and the men who have occupied it. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.  ungekürzt.

He's a top exec for the hottest, newest hotel on the strip, and his good looks definitely make life easier. Most importantly, though, Lady Luck has dished out his dream girl. Beautiful, adventurous Corrine Smith is a jackpot. A sweet, sensual treat after life with his ex-wife left such a bitter taste in his mouth. Derrick is unapologetically and intensely addicted to her, so much so that he has to taste her every night. Corrine keeps it coming with exotic costumes, daring stunts, and constant fun. Their blistering affair is a drama all its own, but even more than that, Derrick shares more with Corrine than he has ever shared with anyone. Who knew such intimacy could be so gratifying and that a hotel elevator mishap would turn into the best month of his life? As life often goes in Vegas, it's all fun and games until it's not. One misunderstanding is all it takes to knock Derrick and Corrine off their game, and it isn't long before Derrick admits that he no longer wants to continue with a mere affair.

    A Love So Dark : Dark Regency, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 347min
    An enticing Gothic romance in the tradition of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, A Love So Dark is a slow burn regency romance filled with mystery and intrigue.Having no fortune, a negligible reputation, and an appearance that could only be described as plain, Miss Olympia Daventry has few prospects. Unless, of course, she elects to remain in her aunt's home dodging her uncle's amourous advances and his sermons, both of which are dished out in equal measure. Out of desperation, she accepts an offer of marriage from a man she has never met. Married by proxy, she travels to his home and at her first sight of it, begins to wonder if perhaps she has not made a terrible mistake. Dark, ominous, foreboding - that description fits both Darkwood Hall and her new husband, Lord Albus Griffin, Viscount Darke. Griffin had vowed never to marry, but the terms of his meddling aunt's will have left him no other option if he intends to preserve Darkwood Hall and the secrets it holds. But he'd instructed his solicitor to secure a wife for him that would never tempt him to consummate their union. And yet Olympia tempts him at every turn. She incites in him such lust and desire, such possessiveness, that he fears the madness that threatens all the men of his line has finally claimed him. But there are other dangers lurking within the walls of Darkwood Hall, secrets and plots, enemies that will stop at nothing to destroy them. Tempted, torn, and tormented by wanting what he should not let himself have, Griffin is lost...but for once he is not alone. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lillian Yves.

Anyone with a good story - whether it be a hunting escapade or one of the children’s antics - is welcome to share. And that’s what this family is all about - sharing, caring for one another, and the love of good food.

You’ll see the Robertson boys fending for themselves as father Phil was out running nets and selling his newly invented duck calls and matriarch Miss Kay was out working to keep the family afloat. Chicken Strips: In this chapter, Willie and Korie marry when Korie is only 18 - but only after dealing with Korie’s father - and their lives are shaped and prepared to someday take the family business to another level. Duck Gumbo: Just like making great gumbo takes patience and time, so did building a duck dynasty. This chapter tells of Phil’s passion and hard work in sticking with something he believed in and loved doing and how that patience and hard work has paid off. Dumplings, Hot Water Cornbread, and Fried Squirrel: None of the Robertsons would be where they are today if not for Miss Kay.

    Silent Treatment: The Narcissist Inflicts Emotional Pain , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min
    Silent treatment is one of the most devastating acts from a narcissist when his or her lover is falling in love with them. The narcissist uses this tactic to create a conflict of "supply and demand". The narcissist love bombs and supplies his lovers for a time period until he has no more to give or until he gets bored with his partner. Then he pushes the partner away and returns to fulfill his own desires while the partner is away. The silent treatment of a narcissist is significantly more impactful and cruel than the silent treatment that is dished out from a normal partner. The normal partner will go off in another room to get his space and watch television. The narcissist will go in the other room to immerse himself in porn, voyeurism, Facebook and other means of separating emotionally from his partner. He is tired of his partner, thus he finds other women to fulfill his needs rather than approaching her to do so. The silent treatment of the narcissist includes cheating, flirting with friends of the opposite sex, and texting or calling exes behind their partner's back. These activities keep the narcissist shielded from emotional pain and rejection from their partner, because they always have someone else ready to catch them. The narcissist always begins another romantic relationship before he ends another. He cannot go even a day without narcissistic supply from someone, and thus this is his coping mechanism for the ending of a relationship. He will soothe himself from a breakup or from his partner cheating on him with attentions and affections from many others. The narcissist will disappear for hours, days, weeks or months. When you least expect it, he will be back around again to check up on you. He will throw out a line to all of his narcissistic supply people to see which one will stroke his ego the best. He will take that one source down from the shelf to play with it until he tires of playing with his toy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: D Gaunt.

    Cleansed , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 92min
    Is your colon really in need of cleansing? Coffee enemas and green smoothies, colonics and laxatives, and all the so-called "cleanses" that are out there today are meant to make you healthy, clean, and pure...but do they actually work? Can you really expel gallstones by drinking olive oil and citrus juice? Should you be consuming Epsom salt? No one seems to be asking if we should be doing these cleanses in the first place, though...until now. Author Joey Lott lays it all on the line with his latest book, Cleansed. He digs into the most popular cleanses today, sharing tales of his own experience, that of his clients, and the results of his extensive research on the subject. A better way than eight glasses a day What happens to your cells when you drink too much water? Shouldn't you be eating as much fiber as possible? Are you really burning fat with all that cardio? You may think that more is better when it comes to fiber, water, and exercise, but Cleansed will reveal the truth behind the hype being dished out today by leading health experts...including the eight glasses a day rule. Discover the healthy way to cleanse that doesn't involve excessive exercise, deprivation, pills, or magic. Work with your body's wisdom and be amazed by the results instead of jumping from cleanse to cleanse and only feeling worse. Coffee enema? Or, is coffee best taken orally? Did you know that a shot of espresso might be just as effective - and a heck of a lot more enjoyable - than a coffee enema? The author explains the science (and lack thereof) behind this and many other popular cleansing techniques. Get answers to your most burning questions, including what "mucoid plaque" is actually made of. A brief discussion of anatomy blows apart many of the dubious claims made by the marketers of these cleanses and gets listeners in touch with the wisdom of their own body. ungekürzt.
