Alternative Medicine and Wellness Techniques: 14 Paths to Integral Health (Scholarly Articles, Volume 3) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 146min
Alternative Medicine and Wellness Techniques: 14 Paths to Integral Health (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 3) - the 2017 revised, updated, and reformatted edition - is a scholarly article that outlines 14 alternative pathways or practices for achieving holistic health. When the author speaks about "holistic" health, he conveys that these practices and techniques do not only cure the symptoms of a disease, but also gradually but definitely remove the underlying cause of the illness. The 14 pathways outlined in the audiobook are Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, homeopathy, Kirlian photography, Kyodo, naturopathy, osteopathy, Qigong, radionics, Reiki, sophrology, Tai Chi chuan, Tibetan medicine, and yoga. Before he discusses the various pathways to holistic health, the author relates to the listener why he created this audiobook, namely as a result of large-scale medical abuse and malpractice suffered by himself, his mother, and his wife, over several years. He then also outlines how he found a way out of "business medicine" into "real medicine" by relocating to Southeast Asia in 1996, where he has lived ever since. As Chinese medicine, next to Ayurveda, is not only the oldest of these medical, sportive, or meditative practices, the author has put a particular focus upon it, explaining the basic tenets and principles, such as the duality of yin and yang, the two complementary energies of every organism, and the theory of the five elements. This is the third volume in a series of Scholarly Articles the author intends to publish in the near future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Fritz Walter.

Harlem to Hollywood , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 514min
This is the extraordinary story of singer/songwriter/actor/music historian Billy Vera, suburban child of a showbiz family who fell in love with black music at an early age. We follow his journey as he plays the Times Square mafia-owned clubs by night and works as a staff songwriter by day, penning tunes for the likes of Ricky Nelson, Fats Domino, and the Shirelles, before finally writing one for himself and gospel singer Judy Clay. His dream comes true as the duo plays to standing ovations at Harlem's Apollo Theatre. With the murder of Martin Luther King Jr. and the arrival of the Woodstock generation, the change in the culture renders blue-eyed soul singers like Vera irrelevant and a decade of '70s survival gigs ensues, until Dolly Parton's version of one of his songs hits number one. Relocating to Los Angeles, our hero forms a band, Billy Vera and the Beaters, and finds career renewal in the form of a hit record and a side career as an actor. At the ripe old age of 42, he finds himself with a number-one record, followed by a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and eventually a Grammy award, all without ever falling into the musician's trap of drugs or alcohol (we told you this isn't your typical musician's tale.) This is the story of a true musician who held on to his art through highs and lows. Along the way, we see a history of the music business of the 1960s, '70s, and '80s as told by one who lived it and sustained his work through all of it. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Thailand: The Ten Cardinal Sins , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 84min
Every single day there are Western men arriving in Thailand for the first time, and contrary to popular opinion, they are not all sex tourists. Many arrive here determined to not get entwined with the local ladies. Alas, far too many not only get entwined, they get trapped, cocooned, and sucked dry by the professional black widow spiders that frequent the red light areas. This, though, is not a book about hookers in Thailand. There's enough of them out there already. What the book does cover is a couple of the more stunningly ridiculous situations that men can find themselves in when dealing with bar girls, but it's much more than that. The first chapter is "The Rule Of Man". We Westerners have an expectation of the police and the court system that you will not find in Thailand. It's a shock to the system, and applies to everyone that visits Thailand, male and female alike. Some of the advice may look like common sense to you, but you would be amazed at the number of people who lack it. Even more to the point, the number who leave their brains at the airport. Normally sensible people do ludicrous things, and they take risks they would never take back home. The information in this book could literally save your life, if not just your life savings. If you are thinking of holidaying in Thailand, or possibly even relocating to the Kingdom, this is essential listening. Thailand: The Ten Cardinal Sins is a how-to guide to avoiding the most dangerous, stupid, and costly mistakes. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jackson Ladd.

Finding freedom and independence – as well as love, passion and heartbreak – for the very first time, a unique bond is formed as the hostilities take their toll on Britain. United by chance, bound together in times of need.... When tragedy strikes, Olive is forced to seek lodgers. Three girls come knocking at her door, each in need of a roof over their heads. Sally has left Liverpool to work as a nurse in London and when she arrives she is a shell of her former self. Where once stood a vivacious, sociable girl, now stands one plagued by homesickness and a betrayal that is devastatingly fresh in her mind. Dulcie is living the high life in the West End, a world away from her home in Stepney. Working at Selfridges gives her access to the most fashionable clothes and makeup, but at home she is the black sheep of the family; always second to her sister. So she decides it's time to make a bid for freedom. Agnes grew up in an orphanage, having been left on the steps as a new-born baby. But with war looming, and the orphanage relocating to the country, she must now seek out a job and lodgings. But with change comes exciting new opportunities, worlds away from the life she's known…As the women prepare for war, all of their futures hang in the balance.

Hell's Half Acre (eBook, ePUB)
A suspense filled tale of murder on the American frontier-shedding new light on a family of serial killers in Kansas, whose horrifying crimes gripped the attention of a nation still reeling from war. In 1873 the people of Labette County, Kansas made a grisly discovery. Buried by a trailside cabin beneath an orchard of young apple trees were the remains of countless bodies. Below the cabin itself was a cellar stained with blood. The Benders, the family of four who once resided on the property were nowhere to be found. The discovery sent the local community and national newspapers into a frenzy that continued for decades, sparking an epic manhunt for the Benders. The idea that a family of seemingly respectable homesteaders-one among the thousands relocating farther west in search of land and opportunity after the Civil War-were capable of operating "a human slaughter pen" appalled and fascinated the nation. But who the Benders really were, why they committed such a vicious killing spree and whether justice ever caught up to them is a mystery that remains unsolved to this day. Set against the backdrop of postbellum America, Hell's Half-Acre explores the environment capable of allowing such horrors to take place. Drawing on extensive original archival material, Susan Jonusas introduces us to a fascinating cast of characters, many of whom have been previously missing from the story. Among them are the families of the victims, the hapless detectives who lost the trail, and the fugitives that helped the murderers escape. Hell's Half-Acre is a journey into the turbulent heart of nineteenth century America, a place where modernity stalks across the landscape, violently displacing existing populations and building new ones. It is a world where folklore can quickly become fact and an entire family of criminals can slip through a community's fingers, only to reappear in the most unexpected of places.- Shop: buecher

The Texas Rangers: The History and Legacy of the West's Most Famous Law Enforcement Agency , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 81min
In the second decade of the 19th century, the precarious state of America's transatlantic relationships began to stabilize. The War of 1812 ended, and the border status with Canada grew somewhat more settled. Turning its efforts toward the taming of an unwelcoming West, the young country faced new and less well-understood enemies. These included a vast array of indigenous Native American tribes, a general lawlessness roaming free from an absence of social protections, and Mexico's historical claims on a large swath of the westernmost portions of the continent. The contested ownership of Texas produced hostility over the following decades in what is now the 28th American state. The threat of relocating the border with Mexico far to the south at the Rio Grande River, was seen as an American land grab of enormous proportions. The Comanche, and other large tribes of the region, forced out by farmed acreage and barbed wire fence, viewed the onslaught of American settlement in much the same way. Within these cultural and legal collisions, an outlaw culture took advantage of the structural void. The creation of the Texas Rangers, as a response to Indian retaliations and renegade assaults on the banking and transportation systems, was born of a need to react quickly. Special skills were required, and unlike the military, resourcefulness and improvisatory thinking were prized, alongside obedience to orders. Author Mike Cox described the ideal Texas Ranger as one who is "able to handle any situation without definite instruction from his commanding officer." It is this resourcefulness, a colorful and non-conformist personality, and a sense of vigilantism that has lent the Texas Rangers a special charisma since their formation. From 19th-century newspaper articles and short stories through early films, the legend of this paramilitary organization has never been without a willing audience. The Ranger’s Bride was released in 1901, followed by The Border Ranger ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

The Case of the Clown Who Laughed & The Case of the Invisible Enemy: The Green Lama #4, Hörbuch, Digital, 325min
The Clown Who Laughed and The Invisible Enemy Conceived in 1939 at the behest of the editors of Munsey Publications to compete with the juggernaut that The Shadow had become in print, on radio and in film, The Green Lama was the creation of writer Kendell Foster Crossen, who was asked to conjure up a hero who could lure mystery-minded readers away from The Shadow's loyal legion of followers. Inspired by a Columbia University student named Theos Casimir Barnard,who had journeyed to far-off Tibet to plumb the occult mysteries of Lamaism, Crossen concocted millionaire Jethro Dumont, who did the same. “I was trying to pick a name somewhat like in sound to Lamont Cranston,” Crossen candidly admitted. “You know what I mean, Lamont-Dumont. It was as close as I dared get to Lamont Cranston. A book had just been published about an American who had gone to Tibet and studied and had become a lama, the only white person who ever had at that time. The result was the Green Lama, which the company liked.” Returning to the States, Dumont assumed an alternative identity of the Buddhist cleric, the Reverend Dr. Pali, then began gathering about him a band of civic-minded citizens to join him in his Buddhistic battle against suffering in all forms-particularly those caused by criminals. And aiding him from the shadows, the mysterious Magga, a woman of many faces who has taken an interest in guiding The Green Lama's campaign against malefactors. The Green Lama really gets around in this volume. First, he infiltrates the Big Top for the unusual adventure called The Clown Who Laughed! Then, relocating to the Windy City in time for a major political convention, he goes head-to-head with a Fifth Column scheme to conquer America from within in the excitingCase of the Invisible Enemy!
