    This assault is not happening from accident or whim. It is happening because disaffected liberals have deliberately set out to upend our Judeo-Christian traditions. Indeed, they are determined to tear down the traditional norms, values, and institutions that have been part of American society from its founding. The cultural debris that these saboteurs have created will take decades to clean up.In feisty prose Donohue explores our nation where a college student is threatened with expulsion because she prayed on campus, a civil-rights organization protests a statue of Jesus found on the ocean floor, and a housewife sues a school district to stop the singing of "Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer" at a school choral production. These are just a few examples cited that demonstrate a culture descending into madness. Donohue takes no prisoners as he digs out and exposes the groups behind this all-out attack on our Christian traditions. Among these are the radical atheists, the proponents of multiculturalism, the sexual libertines, the Hollywood elite with their not-so-hidden agenda, and lawyers who collaborate for profit. ungekürzt.

    Der große Gatsby führt uns mitten hinein in die Goldenen Zwanziger Jahre, und dementsprechend rauschend und glanzvoll geht es darin zu. Das Leben ist für den Handlungsträger eine Folge von Partys, die nicht enden will, mit deren Hilfe er das Herz seiner Liebsten zurückzuerobern trachtet. Ein fragwürdiges Ansinnen, doch es gibt gute Gründe dafür, die noch zu erläutern sind. Zumindest aus der Perspektive des Erzählers sind sie, wenn nicht angebracht, so doch bemerkenswert. Er zieht in dem Roman Bilanz und hält Rückschau auf die letzten beiden Jahre seines Lebens, während derer Jay Gatsby sich anhaltend einer Illusion hingibt, die abschließend dem Untergang geweiht ist. Nick Carraway selbst lebt in bescheideneren Verhältnissen, sieht sich aber seinerseits unwiderstehlich angezogen von der Verschwendungssucht arrivierter Emporkömmlinge, die nichts als dem Genuss zu frönen scheinen, doch schlussendlich sieht man ja, wohin das führt. Nick hat sich ein kleines Haus am Rande gemietet, er stammt aus dem Mittleren Westen der USA und versucht sein Glück an der New Yorker Börse. Während Nick sich an die Fersen der neuen Reichen auf Long Island heftet, hat seine Cousine Daisy als Objekt der Begierde von Jay Gatsby Stellung im noch mondäneren East Egg bezogen. deutsch.

    In fiction, the spy is a glamorous figure whose secrets make or break peace, but, historically, has intelligence really been a vital step to military victories? In this breakthrough study, the preeminent war historian John Keegan goes to the heart of a series of important conflicts to develop a powerful argument about military intelligence. In his characteristically wry and perceptive prose, Keegan offers us nothing short of a new history of war through the prism of intelligence. Keegan brings to life the split-second decisions that went into waging war before the benefit of aerial surveillance and electronic communications. The English admiral Horatio Nelson was hot on the heels of Napoleon's fleet in the Mediterranean and never knew it, while Stonewall Jackson was able to compensate for the Confederacy's disadvantage in firearms and manpower with detailed maps of the Appalachians. In the past century, espionage and decryption have changed the face of battle. Timely information, however, is only the beginning of the surprising and disturbing aspects of decisions that are made in war, where brute force is often more critical. Intelligence in War is a thought-provoking work that ranks among John Keegan's finest achievements. Language: English. Narrator: Simon Prebble.

    In The Running Mate, Joe Klein - the New Yorker Washington correspondent who catapulted into the public eye as the "Anonymous" author of Primary Colors - takes the listener on an exuberant, wicked, and unerringly wise political journey with Senator Charlie Martin, a decorated veteran of the war in Vietnam. The experience of combat and his easy dominance of home-state politics have made Charlie fearless. He's a hot, if occasionally reckless, political property - dashing, honorable, and irreverent.And then Charlie's life begins to fall apart. He campaigns for the presidency and fails...and Senator Martin begins to learn that politics in an era of spin, marketing, and vicious personal assaults can be as treacherous - and life-threatening - as combat was.Finally, Charlie Martin must confront the two greatest challenges in his life - a political opponent who has no scruples and a dazzling, unconventional woman who loves him but is appalled by his life's work. Charlie's dilemma is one that has come to haunt contemporary American politics: Is it possible to be a good politician and a good man? Can you live in the public glare and still construct a habitable life?Listen to a conversation with Joe Klein. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Bedford Lloyd.

    Australia's most popular young adult author John Marsden delivers the much anticipated third title in The Ellie Chronicles. Circle of Flight follows Incurable and While I Live, in this post-war series featuring the immensely popular Ellie Linton, heroine and narrator of the Tomorrow series. "You jam on the brakes and stop the ute right at your front door. You jump out. Not for the first time you run into a house that could be full of guns, with death waiting for you. You don't even think of that until you're crossing the threshold ... You already know what you're going to find. Underneath the fear and horror and panic there's a cold realization that Gavin's body will be somewhere in the house. You can picture what those bullets will have done to his little body." It is a time of profound change for Ellie Linton. Enemies are everywhere. Some come crawling over the hills others drive in and knock on the front door. Sometimes her friends are there and sometimes they are not. Ellie fights every inch of the way. But when courage and imagination are not enough, when she is trapped and helpless, Ellie must face the end of life as she knows it ... standing alone, sustained only by her own strength. ungekürzt.

    As recently as a generation or two ago, the lack of financial ability wasn't a handicap for the average person. But in today's world - where most of us have been forced to manage our own investment and retirement portfolios - it has become essential to understand the finer points of our financial life. While the meltdown of 2008 - 2009 has compounded the complexity of the investment landscape, timeless investment principles can help you navigate even the toughest investment terrain. That's why best-selling author William Bernstein - a grassroots hero to independent investors - has written The Investor's Manifesto. Approaching the problems of investing and saving from the perspective of someone who has had to figure it out for himself, Bernstein knows firsthand how difficult these endeavors can be - especially for those with little professional experience in this arena. Now, with the current market maelstrom as a backdrop, he skillfully describes what it takes to plan for a lifetime of investing, discussing stocks and bonds as well as the relationship between risk and return. Potentially generous returns are available to the brave, the disciplined, and the liquid. If you follow the advice found here and keep your head while others lose theirs, then you will have a fighting chance of avoiding the financial pitfalls in front of you and profiting over the long-term. ungekürzt.

    Find beauty and hope by facing and dealing with the messiness of family life. The family is an imperfect institution. Broken people become broken parents who make broken families. But actually, broken is normal and exactly where God wants us. In The Beauty of Broken, Elisa Morgan, one of today's most respected female Christian leaders, for the first time shares her very personal story of brokenness - from her first family of origin to the second, represented by her husband and two grown children. Over the years, Elisa’s family struggled privately with issues many parents must face, including: alcoholism and drug addiction, infertility and adoption, teen pregnancy and abortion, divorce, homosexuality, and death. Each story layers onto the next to reveal the brokenness that comes into our lives without invitation. "We’ve bought into the myth of the perfect family," says Elisa. "Formulaic promises about the family may have originated in well-meaning intentions, but such thinking isn't realistic. It's not helpful. It's not even kind." Instead she offers hope in the form of "broken family values" that allow parents to grow and thrive with God. Values such as commitment, humility, relinquishment, and respect carry us to new places of understanding. Owning our brokenness shapes us into God's best idea for us and enables us to discover the beauty in ourselves and each member of our family. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elisa Morgan.
