Große Klassiker des Wilden Westens 2 DVD-Box
-> Der Mann vom großen Fluss:Im Virginia des Jahres 1863 stürzt der amerikanische Bürgerkrieg den Farmer Charlie Anderson in einen tiefen Konflikt: Da er die Sklaverei ablehnt, mag er die Südstaaten-Armee nicht unterstützen. Als überzeugter Kriegsgegner kann er sich jedoch ebensowenig auf die Seite der Nordstaaten schlagen. So bemüht er sich, seine Familie aus den Wirren jener Zeit herauszuhalten. Doch schon bald holt der Krieg auch die Andersons ein: Der jüngste Sohn wird von Yankees für einen desertierten Soldaten gehalten und verschleppt. Mit der verzweifelten Suche nach dem verlorenen Sohn beginnt für Charlie Anderson ein dramatischer Kampf mit dem Schicksal...-> Blutige Spur:Kalifornien, 1909. Willie Boy, ein junger Paiute-Indianer, kommt zum jährlichen Stammesfest ins Reservat von Benning, um seine Freundin Lola wiederzusehen. Ihr Vater ist gegen eine Verbindung der beiden, und es kommt zum Streit, bei dem Willie Boy den Alten tötet. Die Liebenden fliehen in die Wüste. Nach den Rechtsbegriffen der Paiute haben sie keine Schuld auf sich geladen, aber die weiße Bevölkerung zwingt Sheriff Cooper zur Strafverfolgung. Cooper, der mit Willie Boy sympathisiert und viel lieber bei seiner Freundin Liz geblieben wäre, bricht denn auch die Aktion bereitwillig ab, als er dem Präsidenten Taft als Bodyguard zugeteilt wird, der gerade Kalifornien bereist. Doch eine Gruppe fanatischer Weißer setzt die Menschenjagd auf eigene Faust fort...-> Die Furchtlosen:Als eine Flut gesetzloser Waffenbrüder in seine einst friedliche Stadt einfällt, weiß Marshal Cass Silver (Robert Ryan), dass er dafür verantwortlich ist, dass sie auch wieder verschwinden. Seine einzige Chance liegt in einem Revolverhelden namens Thad (Jeffrey Hunter), der fälschlicherweise glaubt, der Marshal sei verantwortlich für den Tod seines Vaters. Um die Stadt zu retten, muss Silver die Hilfe und das Vertrauen eines Mannes gewinnen, der geschworen hat, ihn unter die Erde zu bringen.- Shop: buecher

The Aging Brain, Hörbuch, Digital, 378min
We're all getting older every day, and scientific research has shown that starting in our 20s, some brain functions begin a linear decline. But is old age all doom and gloom? Not at all! While it's true that some functions in the aging brain decline, neuroscientists have discovered that many other brain functions remain stable - or even improve - as we age. Furthermore, nurture plays as significant a role as nature, and there are a number of strategies you can implement to stave off declining brain function, including: Incorporating physical activity into your routine Eating a healthy diet Maintaining a vibrant social life Reducing your stress The science behind the aging brain tells a fascinating - and often counterintuitive - story. Is "aging" a disease or merely a natural occurrence that produces disease-like symptoms? If humans are biologically programmed to survive and thrive, why do we age at all? Is it possible (or even desirable) to "cure" aging altogether? Delve into these questions and more in The Aging Brain. Taught by a neuroscientist and award-winning professor at the University of Michigan, these 12 eye-opening lectures will give you a wealth of new insights into what happens to the brain over time - as well as strategies to mitigate the effects of aging and enhance your quality of life into old age. With a mix of scientific research and practical applications, Professor Polk brings cutting-edge science to life. He takes you down to the cellular and even molecular levels of the brain to show you why certain functions decline, how some aspects of brain aging are under genetic control, and what you can do to prolong your health and keep your mind sharp. Aging affects us all, but you have some control over how it affects you. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Language: English.

The Marijuana Chronicles , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 415min
Featuring brand-new stories, poems, prose, and graphics by: Lee Child, Joyce Carol Oates, Linda Yablonsky, Jonathan Santlofer, Abraham Rodriguez, Dean Haspiel, Maggie Estep, Bob Holman, Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan, Amanda Stern, Jan Heller Levi, Josh Gilbert, Edward M. Gmez, Raymond Mungo, Rachel Shteir, Philip Spitzer, and Thad Ziolkowski. From the introduction by Jonathan Santlofer: "Like film, literature has been no stranger to marijuana and hashish, going back to Charles Baudelaire's 1860 Artificial Paradises, in which the French poet not only describes the effects of hashish but postulates it could be an aid in creating an ideal world. The pleasures, pains, and complexities of marijuana are more than hinted at in works by William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Henry Miller, Hunter S. Thompson, and Thomas Pynchon, to name just a few, and I hope this anthology will add to that legacy and keep the flame of pot literature burning bright... "This diverse group of writers, poets, and artists makes it clear that there is no one point of view here. Each of them approaches the idea of marijuana with the sharp eye of an observer, anthropologist, and artist, and expands upon it. Some writing projects are difficult; this one was smooth and mellow and a continual pleasure... I hope you will sit back, relax, and enjoy these wide-ranging tales of the most debated and discussed drug of our time. Though, according to former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, 'That is not a drug, it's a leaf.'"The full list of narrators includes: Scott Brick, Jonathan Santlofer, Elizabeth Evans, Oliver Wyman, Allyson Johnson, Karen White, Kevin Free, Joe Barrett, Christina Delaine, David Ledoux, Johnny Heller, Scott Aiello, Dick Hill, Erin Moon, and Jennifer Van Dyck. ungekürzt.

The Seasons of My Mother , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 515min
In this poetic and inspiring memoir, one of America’s most revered actresses uses the imagery of flowers and the art of Ikebana to depict the unique creative bond that she has had with her mother throughout the years - and how, together, they are facing her mother’s struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. Marcia Gay Harden knew at a young age that her life would be anything but ordinary. One of five lively children born to two Texas natives - Beverly, a proper Dallas lady, and Thad, a young officer in the US Navy hailing from El Paso - she always had a knack for storytelling, role-playing, and mischief-making. As a military family, the Hardens moved often, and their travels abroad eventually took them to a home off the coast of Japan. It was here that Beverly, amid the many challenges of raising a gaggle of youngsters, found solace in Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement. Using the imagery of flowers and Ikebana as her starting point, Marcia Gay Harden takes us through the different seasons of her mother’s life, all the while weaving in the story of her own journey from precocious young girl to budding artist to Academy Award-winning actress. With a razor-sharp wit as well as the kind of emotional honesty that has made her performances resonate with audiences worldwide, Marcia describes the family’s travels overseas, her flourishing career in New York and Hollywood, and, most poignantly, Beverly’s struggles today to maintain her identity as she tackles her greatest challenge yet: Alzheimer’s disease. This memoir illustrates the uniqueness, beauty, and unforgettable love of motherhood as Marcia does what Beverly can no longer do: She remembers. Like a cross between Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club and Lisa Genova’s Still Alice, this memoir is a lyrical, loving homage to one mother’s strength as reflected in the tenacity and artistry of her daughter. ungekürzt.
