The Rise of the American Corporate Security State: Six Reasons to Be Afraid , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 258min
In the United States today we have good reasons to be afraid. Our Bill of Rights is no more. It has been rendered pointless by heavy surveillance of average citizens, political persecution of dissenters, and the potential of indefinite detention now codified into law. Our democracy and freedoms are impaired daily by government control of information, systemic financial corruption, unfettered corporate influence in our elections, and by corporate-controlled international institutions. The Constitution of The United States that has shielded us for more than 200 years from the tentacles of oppressive government and the stranglehold of private wealth becomes more meaningless with each new act of corporate-ocracy. Behind a thinning veneer of democracy, the Corporate Security State is tipping the balance between the self-interest of a governing corporate elite and the rights of the people to freedom, safety and fairness. The consequences of these trends and conditions are devastating. We are submerged in endless war, and the wealth produced by and in the United States skews upward in greater concentrations every year. The middle class is under financial attack, as Washington prepares to loot Social Security and Medicare to finance the insatiable war-making and profit-taking. Repression descends on a people slowly at first, but then crushes quickly, silencing dissent. According to the author of The Rise of the American Corporate Security State, Beatrice Edwards, our task now is to recognize the real reasons to be afraid in 21st century America, and address them. Our early steps in the right direction may be small ones, but they are important. They are based on the principle that we, as Americans, have a right to know what our government is doing and to speak openly about it. Creeping censorship, secret courts, clandestine corporate control are all anathema to democratic practices and must be corrected now, before this last chance to redeem our rights is lo ungekürzt.

The North Valley Grimoire , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 584min
Magick is leaking into our world, and an oppressive government will stop at nothing to keep it a secret.Nineteen Eighty-Four, The Craft, and 007 collide in an all new, magical spy thriller from Blake Northcott, the international best-selling author of Arena Mode. The North Valley Grimoire is Kickstarter's number one most funded and most backed novel of 2018.Warrantless searches. Illegal surveillance. Prisoners locked in indefinite detention. It's all in the name of national security, or so we’re told. While the government expands its power behind a veil of secrecy, a complicit media remains silent.As the world continues to spiral, it’s business as usual in North Valley - a sleepy suburb known for little more than golf courses and overpriced real estate - until a series of murders casts a shadow over the town.When Calista Scott investigates the death of her classmate, she uncovers a secret the government has been protecting all along: Magick is real. It's the most dangerous weapon in existence. And the grimoire her classmate left behind is the equivalent of a loose nuke.“I love this book. Northcott has seamlessly shifted genres and proven she’s as masterful in magic and fantasy as she was in superheroes. Don’t pick this up unless you’re prepared to not put it down.” (Mark Millar, author of Kick-Ass, Kingsman: The Secret Service, Marvel's Civil War)"There is world-building going on all throughout fiction these days - and then there is Northcott taking it to another level. Telling the story of a magical conspiracy through the lens of teen adventure, The North Valley Grimoire is what would happen if James Patterson and J.K. Rowling had a baby and it grew up to be a best seller." (Scott Lobdell, author of Happy Death Day, Uncanny X-Men) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Linnea Sage.

To complicate matters further, an ancient skinwalker is calling in a debt I owe - one that could cost someone their soul.

The Yoga System of Health and Relief from Tension , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 135min
The yoga system of health is a culture that has been practiced by the yogis in India for thousands of years. Its roots lie buried deep in the past, but its message is addressed no less surely to the people of today, living in the restless atmosphere of the modern world. Yoga lays stress on bodily and mental poise and produces an equanimity of spirit that is most beneficial to the whole nervous system. It trains the student in the basic principles of health and creates a true placidity of nature that allows great intensity of activity of both mind and body, when such activity is necessary.The question is whether the Western world needs Yoga and is ready to attach to it the significance the East attaches. The Westerner must perforce admit that the modern world is one of agitation and nervous tension. Does he get along satisfactorily, or does he just muddle through? Life expectancy has certainly gone up in the last hundred years, but this has not been due to an innate development of resistance to disease but rather to the increase in medical knowledge. Sir Farquhar Buzzard, Physician in Ordinary to the King, maintains that in England one person in every 14 suffers from nerves to such an extent as to warrant treatment, whether it is given or not, and that one million weeks of working men's time are lost every year because of nervous disorders alone. We have further his authoritative statement that one-third of all the ills that man is heir to in these days are due to nervous disorders and are not organic breakdowns.The need for yoga therapy, which deals so exhaustively with nerves and their effects, is thus seen to be very real, for ill-nourished and uncontrolled nerves sap the vitality of a nation and affect its physical condition and its mental outlook. Yoga is not advocated to teach the Western city dweller the Indian rope trick or any other abnormal practice (and among these false ideas must be included the use of yoga to effect indefinite p ungekürzt.
