So when a gunman opens fire at the crowded Thanksgiving Day parade, Fritz steps into action, giving chase. He then learns that someone dubbed “Nightmare” has been taunting the city’s leaders for weeks—and there’s more carnage to come, unless the city meets the madman’s impossible demands. The nervous police need an outside man, and Fritz fits the bill. Racing furiously against time, Fritz finds himself confounded by Nightmare’s multiple masks and messengers. But the dark story behind the story soon begins to emerge, and when Fritz zeroes in on the terrible truth, the killer retaliates by making things personal. Now Fritz must grapple with his deepest fear: Sometimes nightmares really do come true.Praise for Speak of the Devil“Hawke razzle-dazzles us with . . . bada-bing narration and quirky, well-drawn characters.” —The Boston Globe“[Packed] with a breathless pace and hairpin turns.”—South Florida Sun Sentinel“Fast-moving, first-rate . . .

    Powershell: Become a Master in Powershell , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min
    So you want to learn about PowerShell? Let me guarantee you that there's not a better book on the market for that. Give me a minute of your time and I'll explain why. First, a lot of books that are supposed to "teach" you aren't good at teaching. They either go too slow, explain everything in baby terms, talk down to you, and leave you feeling like you didn't learn anything, or they're something like a college textbook where everything is incredibly in-depth. The important thing about this book is that it understands that dilemma. If you're looking for a quick guide to get you started on PowerShell, scripting, and automation - one that will boost you from an absolute beginner to somebody with a firm grasp on the concepts that they just spent a bit reading about - then you're looking at just the one. This book has the perfect pace for your busy schedule. Second, this book covers everything you need to know. We go from the very basics of PowerShell - what it even is, for example - to things like retrieving data and formatting and filtering through collections. In the meantime, we talk about things such as PowerShell scripting and how to get the most out of PowerShell by automating certain tasks using scripts. The contents of this book include: What is PowerShell? PowerShell commands The programming logic behind PowerShell Scripting More advanced - filtering and formatting PowerShell terminology You will be hard pressed to find a book that covers so much important information so solidly, and I guarantee that if you purchase this book, you will absolutely not regret it. In fact, you'll be too busy making super-efficient PowerShell scripts to even have time to regret it! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric Morrison.

    Banged-Up Heart: Dancing with Love and Loss , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 715min
    Banged-Up Heart by Shirley Melis is an intimate and clear-eyed account of finding love late and losing it early - and of the strength it takes to fall madly in love a second time, be forced to relinquish that love too soon, and yet choose to love again. When her husband of 30 years dies suddenly, Shirley Melis is convinced she will never find another man like Joe. Then she meets John, a younger man who tells her during their first conversation that he has lived for many years with a rare but manageable cancer. She is swept off her feet in a whirlwind courtship, and within months, made brave by the early death of a friend's husband, she asks him to marry her! What follows is a year-long odyssey of travel and a growing erotic and creative partnership - until a mysterious bump on John's forehead proves to be one of several tumors in his brain and spine. The nine months that follow are filled with a life-threatening infection, three brain surgeries, radiation, and chemotherapy. Two years and one week after their wedding, John dies at the age of 59. More than just a love story or a memoir of mourning, Banged-Up Heart comes down solidly on the side of life. It takes you deep inside an ordinary woman, her deeply felt grief butting up against her desire for more than companionship: passion, sexual fulfillment, and self-realization. It bears eloquent witness to the wild trust it takes to fall madly in love and risk profound loss - a second time. Ultimately, it shows that it is possible to dance with a banged-up heart. ungekürzt.

    Correcting Non-Biblical and Supporting True Christian Doctrines , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 90min
    Bible study and especially deeper theology is far more vast than most people realize. People who teach from the Holy Scriptures can be very sincere but also sincerely wrong. This is error, rather than "false teaching" which always has an evil motive behind it, such as gleaning wealth from God's people, purposefully confusing them and claiming to be something they are not. This includes Prophets (some men really are Prophets), healers (this supernatural gift does operate today as God wills but some men use false chicanery), and the list goes on. So, in some cases, the Holy Bible is used for gain by "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Jesus - Matthew 7:15). Christians should be respectful and attentive to Word of God Ministers but they also should not place too much confidence in any man! The main thing is that ministers (including teachers like myself) should give congregates who come to listen to them spiritual food-for-thought that is backed solidly by the Holy Scriptures. By not double-checking things we are taught or given preached messages on, we can be led astray, whether the minister meant for such a thing to happen or not! So, meditate on God's Word and on the messages by ministers that are derived from them and ask the Holy Spirit to "guide you into all truth" (John 16:13). I ask this for you and for myself, in Jesus Christ's name, Amen! Following are this 12,890-word audiobook's contents: Chapter One: When Salvation in Jesus Christ Is Claimed to Be Earned Chapter Two: Jesus Will Appear in the Rapture Very Soon Chapter Three: God Leads Us with a Still Small Voice Chapter Four: Christians Take Caution When Doing Business with the World Chapter Five: Sin of Narcissism Among Professing Christians Chapter Six: Bizarre Instructions by Christian Ministers Can Bring Church Ridicule Chapter Seven: Imperfect Witnesses and Ministers for Jesus Will Not Los ungekürzt.

    Red State: An Insider's Story of How the GOP Came to Dominate Texas Politics (Jack and Doris Smothers Series in Texas History, Life, and Culture) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 609min
    In November 1960, the Democratic party dominated Texas. The newly elected vice president, Lyndon Johnson, was a Texan. Democrats held all 30 statewide elective positions. The state legislature had 181 Democrats and no Republicans or anyone else. Then fast-forward 50 years to November 2010. Texas has not voted for a Democratic president since 1976. Every statewide elective office is held by Republicans. Representing Texas in Washington is a congressional delegation of 25 Republicans and nine Democrats. Republicans control the Texas Senate by a margin of 19 to 12 and the Texas House of Representatives by 101 to 49. Red State explores why this transformation of Texas politics took place and what these changes imply for the future. As both a political scientist and a Republican party insider, Wayne Thorburn is especially qualified to explain how a solidly one-party Democratic state has become a Republican stronghold. He analyzes a wealth of data to show how changes in the state's demographics - including an influx of new residents, the shift from rural to urban, and the growth of the Mexican-American population - have moved Texas through three stages of party competition, from two-tiered politics, to two-party competition between Democrats and Republicans, and then to the return to one-party dominance, this time by Republicans. His findings reveal that the shift from Democratic to Republican governance has been driven not by any change in Texans' ideological perspective or public policy orientation - even when Texans were voting Democrat, conservatives outnumbered liberals or moderates - but by the Republican party's increasing identification with conservatism since 1960. The book is published by University of Texas Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks. “Everyone with an interest in Texas politics...needs to read this book.” (Paul Burka, Senior Executive Editor, Texas Monthly) ungekürzt.

    Ancient Rhodes: The History and Legacy of the Famous Greek Island in Antiquity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 98min
    Modern perceptions of classical Greece are almost invariably based on Athens and Sparta, but there are perhaps few areas as consistently undervalued as the island of Rhodes. Although solidly part of the Greek world for as long as there has been one, Rhodes, located just off the coast of Asia Minor, was also from its earliest times a port opening to the civilizations of the Eastern Mediterranean, and Rhodes was involved in every significant moment in ancient Greek history. The island often played a key role in world events that far surpassed its small size and at one point even stood side by side with much larger kingdoms as one of the main powers in the Greek world.  In the Archaic and Classical periods, Rhodes often stood as a prime exemplar of the highs and lows of its fellow Greek cities, and as the largest island of the Dodecanese, Rhodes’ history is largely in line with that of the rest of those islands. Rhodes was first colonized by the Greeks of the Dorian tribe around the eighth century BCE, and it aligned with its fellow Dorian cities on the surrounding islands and the mainland of Asia Minor to form the so-called Doric Hexapolis. After the Ionian revolt near the end of the sixth century BCE, Rhodes, along with other islands, was in the path of the Persian fleet that crossed the Aegean to face off against the Greeks in the Persian Wars.  In the aftermath of the Persian Wars, along with the rest of the islands and with Greek Asia Minor, Rhodes was subsumed into the Athenian alliance, which would soon become the Athenian Empire. However, Athens would soon lose its power, and around the end of the Peloponnesian War against Sparta, its hold on its allies would wane. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Norman.

    Tooth Regrowth: Natural Methods to Remineralize, Restore, and Repair Your Teeth and Gums at Home , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
    A new revolutionary breakthrough in dental health.Can you regrow teeth? That’s the question you’re probably wondering.The answer is...yes...but not in the way you may think. Let’s put it this way, your body can’t grow back a new tooth like it would for a piece of hair, nail, or skin layer that naturally replaces itself. However, a tooth can be regrown on a surface level which is known as: tooth remineralization.What is tooth remineralization? It’s the regrowth process of restoring vital minerals and adding back layers to your teeth to make them stronger, bigger, and more solidly whole again.Your teeth will naturally weaken over time due to continuous use and even abuse (e.g., using your teeth as a tool to open things), overexposure to unhealthy diets high in sugar, poor oral hygiene from neglect of regular tooth brushing and mouth cleaning, etc.- resulting in all-too-common tooth decay, cavities, gum diseases, and other dental problems.The reality is that you only get one set of teeth in your life (excluding baby teeth). If you fail to take care of the teeth you have now, you’re going have to spend thousands of dollars or more for expensive dental work later down the road.On the other hand, if you’re one of the few who takes up the practice of manually performing tooth remineralization as soon as possible - you can restore your teeth back to its healthy natural state and keep them for life.Here’s what you will discover inside Tooth Regrowth:The NASA-developed toothpaste used by astronauts to remineralize teeth.The oldest medicinal system in the world to restore your pearly whites.The natural herbal approach to rejuvenate the regrowth process in your mouth.The most potent way to get your calcium intakes for building strong teeth.The connective-tissue acid to fight periodontitis and reverse receding gums....and that’s simply scratching the sur ungekürzt.

    At the Forefront of Lee’s Invasion: Retribution, Plunder, and Clashing Cultures on Richard S. Ewell’s Road to Gettysburg (Civil War Soldiers and Strategies) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 861min
    After clearing Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley of Federal troops, Gen. Robert E. Lee’s bold invasion into the North reached the Maryland shore of the Potomac River on June 15, 1863. A week later, the Confederate infantry crossed into lower Pennsylvania, where they had their first sustained interactions with the civilian population in a solidly pro-Union state. Most of the initial encounters with the people in the lush Cumberland Valley and the neighboring parts of the state involved the men from the Army of Northern Virginia’s famed Second Corps, commanded by Lt. Gen. Richard S. Ewell, who led the way as Lee’s veteran soldiers advanced north toward their eventual showdown with the Union army at the crossroads town of Gettysburg. The move to the North lasted for nearly a month and encompassed the major battle at Winchester, Virginia, with more than 5,000 casualties; five skirmishes with more than 100 men killed, wounded, and captured in each; and several other minor actions. Civilian property losses in the North amounted to several million dollars. The interactions along the way further laid bare the enormous cultural gulf that separated the two sides in the war. As Robert Wynstra explains, Ewell and his top commanders constantly struggled to control the desire among the troops to seek retribution for what they perceived as Federal outrages in the South and to stop the plundering, working to maintain strict discipline in the army and uphold Southern honor. In this new study, Wynstra draws on an array of primary sources, including rare soldiers’ letters and eyewitness accounts published in local newspapers, manuscripts and diaries in small historical societies, and a trove of postwar damage claims from the invasion to fill in this vital gap in the historiography of the campaign. The book is published by The Kent State University Press.
