    Mud, Manholes, and Machetes: True Stories from the Life of a Surveyor Engineer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 356min
    This audiobook covers the often humorous adventures of Ritchey Marbury during his more than 70 years of surveying and engineering. It tells how his survey crews were motivated when he fell face-first into a muddy swamp. He also details how he peered out of a sanitary sewer manhole to see his future wife staring at him from her front porch and how he almost fainted when he saw his son lying in a hospital bed, smiling, after being cut in the head by a machete. He was put in a wheelchair and wheeled out of the room.This book also illustrates the advancement of surveying and engineering through examples of actual events. It tells some little known facts about the growth of several developments in Albany, Georgia. These include Albany State University, Albany Mall, Hidden Lakes Subdivision, Lake Park Subdivision, Lancaster Village, Albany Civic Center, and others.This is not a business book, a textbook, or a technical book. It is a humorous memoir of surveying and engineering stories. They are all true and from Ritchey's personal experiences in a profession he loves. Listeners will enjoy the unique stories while learning about the fun life of a surveyor and engineer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kelly Klaas.

    Why? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 495min
    Inspired by a true story. On Christmas Eve, 1971, Flight 153 departed from Houston, Texas, carrying 140 people bound for Rio de Janeiro. Flight 153 never reached its destination. It seemed to vanish into thin air. The plane is caught up in a large thunderstorm and is forced to veer hundreds of miles off course and crashes in the jungle approximately 10 miles west of the Xingu River. The Xingu River is 900 miles long, infested with alligators, snakes, and blood sucking insects, man-eating fish and hostile Indians. An anthropologist, a female executive headhunter, a used car salesman, an embezzling lawyer, a young Catholic nun, a Hispanic construction worker, a coffee bean salesman, a pilot, two elderly women, and a US Marine just returning from the war in Vietnam survived the crash. Their survival equipment consists of a rescue raft, a couple of machetes, a flair gun, and simple first aid kit. Only the Marine, Billy Sunday, has experienced the jungle before. Billy, who is suffering from survivor's guilt and flashback of the Vietnam War, would struggle to lead the group of misfit survivors out of the jungle alive. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Soon to be a major motion picture from Imagine Entertainment and producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer. Between life and death lies an epic war, a relentless manhunt through two worlds...and an unforgettable love story. The last thing FBI agent Will Brody remembers is the explosion - a thousand shards of glass surfing a lethal shock wave. He wakes without a scratch. The building is in ruins. His team is gone. Outside, Chicago is dark. Cars lie abandoned. No planes cross the sky. He's relieved to spot other people - until he sees they're carrying machetes. Welcome to the afterlife. Claire McCoy stands over the body of Will Brody. As head of an FBI task force, she hasn't had a decent night's sleep in weeks. A terrorist has claimed eighteen lives and thrown the nation into panic. Against this horror, something reckless and beautiful happened. She fell in love...with Will Brody. But the line between life and death is narrower than any of us suspect - and all that matters to Will and Claire is getting back to each other.

The UK Cabal adapt again and again, recruiting mercenary armor while still trying to control the in-fighting inside the enclosures.Despite all the death and destruction, there is hope, and possibly love.

He can't be sure if she's setting him up for the kill, or trying to get into his pants, but either way he can't ignore her.His friends are worried, his enemies wonder if she is a weakness to exploit, while to the north the Bloods are recruiting because they owe Orchard Close some payback. In one terrible night of treachery, violence, and tragic loss, plots stretching back three years come to fruition.

    Troubled Sea , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 594min
    Hetta and her husband, Bob "Jenks" Jenkins, have finally broken free from the rat race of corporate America. Having forsaken the shackles of deadlines, they have been enjoying the soul liberating life of freedom. For the past five years, they have traveled on their boat, Jensky, meeting new friends and finding their true selves. Freedom, however, comes with a price. As the Jenkins find, the sea is an unforgiving mistress. Hetta and Jenks meet up with an old friend, Bud, a fellow water rat, to discover he has a new flame - a much younger lady (too young, too lithe and too evil, Hetta muses).  The Jenkins happen upon a GPS unit and several packs of cocaine  when they land in Mexico. Soon, they find  that Bud's loyalty  seems as shallow as his mistress' personality.Finding themselves followed constantly by two men, they go to the local police for help. However, they seem to care less about this and begin to suspect Hetta and Bob are drug mules. The U.S. Coast Guard finds a boat similar to the Jenksy adrift in the Sea of Cortez; its occupants butchered by machetes. They find in a satellite photo that a small Panga has been blown up, and trace the Jenksy to being in the area.Soon, the Jenkins find themselves caught up in a world of drug runners and arms dealers. On the run from drug cartels and the Mexican police, they are running out of time.    ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Beth Richmond.

    Bocadillos poéticos (eBook, ePUB)
    Bocadillos poéticos posee una referencia a la tierra y a la Tierra. El suelo como esa pequeña capa viva que sostiene la producción agroalimentaria y el planeta que habitamos. Estas dos dimensiones confluyen para escenificar el sustrato sobre el cual se asienta el conglomerado humano que lo habita: los campesinos.Ellos, los campesinos, son de una vital importancia para un país. Para el caso de Colombia, con mucha mayor razón. Tres imponentes cadenas montañosas, volcanes, páramos, valles fértiles, llanos, selvas, lagos, ciénagas, humedales, ríos caudalosos, flora y fauna deslumbrante. Ellos, con su cultura cultivaron el país: café, arroz, caña azucarera y panelera, papa, algodón, maíz, flores, que posicionaron a la Nación como productora agrícola de un potencial inmenso. Somos un país bendito por tenerlos, pero el Estado y los gobiernos no lo han apreciado. Bocadillos poéticos menciona a Vélez con su provincia, historia: pueblos originarios muiscas del altiplano cundiboyacense que irradian hasta Puente Nacional, Jesús María, La Belleza, Chipatá, Guavatá; y lo más literariamente significativo: ¡el olor de la guayaba! En época de cosecha las veredas conserveras de San Vicente, San Pablo, Ejidos están impregnadas de ese aromatizante olor, todo el ámbito, y en el pueblo las fábricas de bocadillo lo incrementan. Proust hubiera quedado maravillado, no sólo el aroma de la magdalena estaría en el recuerdo sino muy presente en todo el ambiente recordándoselo, en En busca del tiempo perdido. 1. Por el camino de Swann. El mercado de la conserva de guayaba los sábados, detrás de la iglesia atravesada, los campesinos descargando las mulas, depositando el producto, los intermediarios atentos a poner el precio que mejor les conviniera según la oferta del día. Las palabras sonando: conservicha, jite, mincha, jústele, carga de conserva, el macho, zurrón, bordón, múcuras, chicarte, viche, tapetusa, goyete, chirrinchi, barraganete, Jarantivá… Todo el pueblo girando alrededor del precio producto, su economía, su cultura en esas mañanas dónde se formaba el precio, frías o con sol deslumbrante. Los campesinos inundando la plaza, sus botas plásticas, sombreros, machetes al cinto, el cagajón de las mulas y machos, el olor recio de esos cuerpos, las campanas al viento sonando, llamando a misa, las mujeres con sus chalinas negras, blancas entrando al templo.
