History's Greatest Mysteries: The Unsolved Case of D.B. Cooper , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 72min
Maybe a hydrologist can use the latest technology to trace the $5,800 in ransom money found in 1980 to where Cooper landed upstream. Or maybe someone just remembers that odd uncle. (FBI Special Agent Larry Carr) On November 24, 1971, there was little to suggest that the skies above the Pacific Northwest would produce one of the greatest mysteries in American history and a criminal investigation that is still ongoing over 40 years later. However, on the day before Thanksgiving, a man calling himself Dan Cooper boarded Northwest Orient Flight 305 from Portland to Seattle and sat in the rear of the cabin. Shortly after takeoff the man handed a flight attendant warning that he had a bomb and informed her that he was hijacking the plane. Cooper demanded $200,000, several parachutes, and a truck to refuel the plane when it landed in Seattle. Another flight attendant would later inform authorities, “He seemed rather nice. He was never cruel or nasty. He was thoughtful and calm all the time." When the plane landed at Seattle-Tacoma Airport, Cooper’s demands were met, after which he let all of the passengers and most of the crew off. He then told pilot William Scott to fly toward Mexico at no higher than 10,000 feet and at the slowest possible speed, which would also require a refueling stop in Reno, Nevada. About 30 minutes after the plane had taken off, Cooper manually activated the aft air staircase near the back of the cabin and apparently jumped out of the plane shortly after. The plane landed without any problems at Reno about 90 minutes after Cooper had activated the staircase to exit. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Violet Meadow.

The Meaning of Grace , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 539min
Mum is the reference point. If you ever get confused about anything, there she is, waiting with all her knowledge of you. Grace Fisher, mother of three, one day decides her husband is a sore disappointment and moves the family from Melbourne to a coastal village in Victoria. But Ian's slow dissolution on the couch masked a depression that will harrow him into an early grave, leaving the kids with a lifetime of questioning: What happened to their father? How did he get so sad? Between their father's demise and Grace's hardscrabble existence working at a local bakery, each child is left to find meaning on their own. Edie, the eldest child, locks herself into a romantic ideal so lofty that it can't help but fail. The middle child, Juliet, struts and careens through life, filling it only with what she can seduce, steal, and manipulate. Sibling rivalry between sisters proves the slowest and fiercest of burns. Love comes easily for Ted, the youngest, but when his wife abandons him to raise two daughters on his own, the perils of fatherhood are laid bare. When Grace, the distant, imperfect hub of the family, is diagnosed with terminal cancer, the siblings are forced to confront each other as adults, and come to understand their mother. Written with her hallmark warmth, humour, and deftness of observation, Deborah Forster's follow-up novel to the Miles Franklin shortlisted The Book of Emmett is a moving story of the loves and rivalries that burn at the heart of every family, and the meaning that comes from it. ungekürzt.

The Social CEO (eBook, PDF)
There remains a huge gulf in understanding by many leaders of what some are calling the Social Age - huge changes going on in society, enabling anyone with a smartphone to sign up to a social network and comment on anything and everything. Despite this revolution, which has been embraced by the masses, it is the people at the top of organizations who have been slowest to understand and adapt to it.While business leaders may feel that it's enough to hire social media managers and amend their marketing strategies, Damian Corbet shows why organizations need to do more to succeed in the Social Age - why CEOs need to 'get social' to survive. The Social CEO sets out to educate and inspire senior leaders to embrace the Social Age, teaching them the hows and whys of utilising social media in order to make them stronger leaders. Social CEOs can effectively encourage engagement from their employees as well as other stakeholders and customers; they're better able to communicate their organization's objectives and values, gauge the climate in which they operate and improve their brand image.Offering invaluable contributions from industry-recognised experts in social business, The Social CEO explores the many aspects of leading in the Social Age, such as storytelling, personal branding, managing risk and public relations. With chapters also written by practising 'social CEOs' working across a variety of sectors, from healthcare to sport, the book provides a wealth of insight into how social media can be used to gain a competitive advantage.- Shop: buecher

Tales from the Ant World
"Ants are the most warlike of all animals, with colony pitted against colony," writes E.O. Wilson, one of the world’s most beloved scientists, "their clashes dwarf Waterloo and Gettysburg." In Tales from the Ant World, two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner Wilson takes us on a myrmecological tour to such far-flung destinations as Mozambique and New Guinea, the Gulf of Mexico’s Dauphin Island and even his parent’s overgrown backyard, thrillingly relating his nine-decade-long scientific obsession with over 15,000 ant species. Animating his scientific observations with illuminating personal stories, Wilson hones in on twenty-five ant species to explain how these genetically superior creatures talk, smell, and taste, and more significantly, how they fight to determine who is dominant. Wryly observing that "males are little more than flying sperm missiles" or that ants send their "little old ladies into battle," Wilson eloquently relays his brushes with fire, army, and leafcutter ants, as well as more exotic species. Among them are the very rare Matabele, Africa's fiercest warrior ants, whose female hunters can carry up to fifteen termites in their jaw (and, as Wilson reports from personal experience, have an incredibly painful stinger); Costa Rica’s Basiceros, the slowest of all ants; and New Caledonia's Bull Ants, the most endangered of them all, which Wilson discovered in 2011 after over twenty years of presumed extinction. Richly illustrated throughout with depictions of ant species by Kristen Orr, as well as photos from Wilsons' expeditions throughout the world, Tales from the Ant World is a fascinating, if not occasionally hair-raising, personal account by one of our greatest scientists and a necessary volume for any lover of the natural world.- Shop: buecher

Mirage: Mother's Best Kept Secrets , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 75min
Have you ever considered what it’s like to experience a reoccurring illusion of death? Your flawed senses deceive you because your environment has become so miserable. Imagine dying, or lying in agony, night after night, drenched in sweat, waiting for it to pass. They could've heard your blood-curdling screams from miles away, if not for being silenced by fear. It appears as though your pulse couldn’t fade anymore before it stops altogether. Only by being broken down, in such a way, could you understand. The abuse numbs your body, but your soul still suffers from each blow. It's an endless film stuck on replay, the slowest, surest death, that happens, over and over, with no promise of stopping. Each day you awake, wondering if it will be your last. You wished to avoid an uproar, but the sound of breaking dishes tells you: it's too late. He is furious, and his anger knows no limits. The fire in his powerful brown eyes says you are lucky to be alive, but inside you’ve already perished. Though you're a fearless woman, you have met your match. He persuaded that he was the perfect gentleman and swept you off your feet. Somehow, you fell right into his trap. Those fearful eyes were once the same ones you gazed into, and all your problems became distant. The butterflies you felt were those of the most delicate, unexplainable feelings known to humans. A young stage of a flourishing love, told in the most magical fairy tales ever read. How does the same guy, sent to rescue you, become your most feared enemy? You have spent hours talking, laughing, and sharing your deepest secrets with one another. There was nothing the two of you couldn't accomplish together. Just as your youthful dreams become your existence, somehow they shift into your worst nightmares. By the time you realize, you’ve been sucked into his narcissistic realm, with no escape in sight, it's too late and past the point of no return. Nobody can spare you. They will only judge you ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sheryl Mebane. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/128724/bk_acx0_128724_sample.mp3.
