    When family man Joe Crawford confronts a young mother abusing her toddler in a gas station parking lot, he has no idea of the chain reaction he's setting in motion. How could he suspect the young mother is part of an ancient fire cult, a sinister group of killers that will destroy anyone who threatens one of its members? When the little boy is placed in a foster home, the young mother burns herself alive in grief and rage...and the cult's fanatics begin their mission of terror as Joe and his family are plagued by otherwise inexplicable events. One night Joe smells ashes in his daughter's nursery. A kindly old couple whose house Joe renovated is found butchered ritualistically. Pushed to his limit, Joe becomes friends with the local police chief Daryl Copeland, who decides to accompany Joe to the cult's isolated compound, where the chief is murdered and Joe is taken hostage. Joe awakens in the huge three-story house he has been renovating for a beautiful client and her husband. His lovely client turns out to be the leader of the fire cult. Joe and the little boy he saved are the planned sacrifices of the cult's midsummer ceremony. Joe's wife and some local policemen save Joe, but in a wild shootout the house is set ablaze and the little boy is taken hostage upstairs.

    In this seminal new study of resilience, Meg Jay tells the stories of a diverse group of people who have overcome trauma in their childhoods to go on and live successful lives as adults. These are the 'supernormal', who, having shouldered greater than average hardship as children, defy expectation and achieve better than average success as adults. But how, and at what cost? Whether it was experiencing parental divorce or growing up with an alcohol or drug-abusing parent, living with a parent or sibling with mental illness, being bullied, living in poverty, being a witness to domestic violence or suffering physical or emotional neglect, the people Meg Jay introduces us to are all survivors. She explores what they have in common that made it possible for them to transcend the trauma of their early years and to build successful adult lives. And she asks the questions: What was the cost of developing those powers? And having survived, even thrived, how do you go on and build a trusting, fulfilled life? Drawing on her clinical experience with survivors of childhood trauma, Meg Jay documents ordinary people made extraordinary by the experience of all-too-common trauma. Bringing together personal, scientific and cultural knowledge, Jay gives a voice to the experience of the 'supernormal', furnishes them with the tools to better understand themselves and take full advantage of their strengths and gives a window into their world for those who seek to understand them. ungekürzt.

    No one goes into parenthood anticipating the ways they will psychologically damage their children. My parents fed me and sheltered me. I learned how to take care of myself physically and to manage the tasks of adulthood. I was responsible and productive. Yet, I was far from happy and fulfilled. I did not come out of childhood feeling good about myself. We take classes for everything from learning to draw to playing an instrument to getting a medical degree or becoming an accountant to learning karate and gymnastics or learning to cook, yet we get little to no education on our psychological and emotional health.Emotionally healthy people know how to express themselves in life-giving ways, and are rarely in abusive relationships or having affairs. They aren’t lying, cheating, or abusing drugs or people. They are generally happy people. Becoming an emotionally healthy person is an ongoing journey and needs at least as much, if not more, attention as we give to our physical health. Reproduction often gets less thought and planning than a vacation. Raising children to be healthy, happy, productive, and loving adults becomes on-the-job-training at its worst, since mistakes can be life-altering.So, how do we help our children become the happy, healthy, productive, and loving adults most parents want them to be? Over here in this audiobook, we'll be discussing all the lessons learned from many others who suffered the same consequences, and maybe, from these mistakes, we can help our children escape that. ungekürzt.

    Audie Award Nominee, Narration by the Author or Authors, 2013If you don't buy this book, you're a racist. Have you ever been called "too Black" or "not Black enough"? Have you ever befriended or worked with a Black person? Raised by a pro-Black, Pan-Afrikan single mother during the crack years of 1980s Washington, DC, and educated at Sidwell Friends School and Harvard University, Baratunde Thurston has over 30 years' experience being Black. Now, through stories of his politically inspired Nigerian name, the heroics of his hippie mother, the murder of his drug-abusing father, and other revelatory Black details, he shares with listeners of all colors his wisdom and expertise in how to be Black. Beyond memoir, this guidebook offers practical advice on everything from "How to Be the Black Friend" to "How to Be the (Next) Black President" to "How to Celebrate Black History Month". To provide additional perspective, Baratunde assembled an award-winning Black Panel - three Black women; three Black men; and one White man (Christian Lander, author of Stuff White People Like) - and asked them such revealing questions as: "When did you first realize you were Black?" "How Black are you?" "Can you swim?" The result is a humorous, intelligent, and audacious guide that challenges and satirizes the so-called experts, purists, and racists who purport to speak for all Black people. With honest storytelling and biting wit, Baratunde plots a path not just to blackness, but one open to anyone interested in simply "how to be". ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Do you want exotic hair without paying an exotic price? Possessing healthy hair that is full of body and shine is easy to achieve...if you just know how. Every woman wants hair that is equivalent to a supermodel's - shiny, smooth, voluminous, and, of course, manageable. We see these super models selling a variety of shampoos, conditioners, and hair treatments while flaunting their beautiful hair in magazines and on television ads. But did you know that using these products can actually do more harm than good? Commercial shampoos contain a variety of chemicals and unnecessary additives and preservatives that cause damage not only to your hair but also to your entire body. One of the most commonly used ingredients is triethanolamine, which is responsible for cancer and hormonal imbalances. This harsh ingredient also causes sensitive scalps and skin sensitivities, and long-term use can create dry and lifeless hair - which is the actual opposite effect that the advertisements claim. So you buy the shampoo in the hopes that it will improve your hair, and it does - for a few months. But then you notice that your hair starts to become dull and limp...so you buy more shampoo. And so the cycle continues. By making your own homemade shampoos and hair treatments, you can achieve beautiful hair without abusing it with an overabundance of synthetic chemicals and toxins. Plus, homemade shampoo is relatively inexpensive when considering how many bottles of commercial shampoo you use up each year. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bradetta Vines.
