    Life is always changing, flowing like sand through the fingers. A peaceful summer morning in Moscow is invaded by a column of tanks rumbling down a quiet tree-lined street. People are protesting in the streets, independent news outlets are being silenced, and Mikhail Gorbachev is declared unfit to run the country. His whereabouts are unknown. It is August 19, 1991, and the communist hardliners are attempting a coup with plans of eliminating Mikhail Gorbachev and turning back his democratic reforms. "What will happen if they win?" asks Marina, the teenage protagonist. "It will be Stalin's regime all over again." A chilling prediction indeed. Moscow Dreams is both a coming of age novel and historical fiction, with changes in the former USSR paralleling changes in the lives of the young protagonists. After the coup, Marina and her friends are thrust into drastic social, political, and economic changes. Security is replaced by questions and doubts, and the only thing that is constant is the feeling of uncertainty and the impermanence of life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gary Roelofs.

    Black Rock Observatory, in Tryon, North Carolina, is a privately-owned radio telescope searching for extraterrestrial life. The facility’s giant satellite dish hits pay dirt on New Year’s Eve 2024 as a graduate student, Ronald Phillips, records a strange alien message from a distant galaxy.  A press conference ensues, and the country is informed of the discovery through national television. The recording uploads quickly on Black Rock’s website, and the alien message goes viral. Public reaction is enthusiastic, and the observatory gains publicity through news and social media outlets. After the recording’s release, many people become infected by a mystery illness. The disease causes tumors in the brains of its victims and noticeable changes in their personalities. Some of the stricken are interviewed by two neurosurgeons, Doctors Kevin Dyar and James Ketterly. Their research leads them to an unthinkable conclusion: The cause of the disease is connected to the observatory. In a race against time, the neurosurgeons desperately search for a cure to an alien plague that has originated 2.2 billion light-years from Earth. ungekürzt.

    People of color face a higher likelihood of being killed by police than do white men and women; that risk peaks in young adulthood, and men of color face a nontrivial lifetime risk of being killed by police.Denial and avoidance, then, appear to be the main techniques for dealing with one of the most pervasive and crucial problems of US society.In the wake of high-profile police killings in the past years, media outlets have begun to collate information in order to paint a more complete picture of police violence in the United States.The United States has a duty to take urgent action to prevent and remedy the excessive use of force by police against Black Americans. Despite the growing awareness of police brutality, police officers found guilty are hardly held accountable for their actions; they are often acquitted or, if convicted, receive much lighter sentences than are typical for civilians convicted of similar crimes.Lack of accountability lies at the heart of a cycle of police violence and discrimination against Black Americans. ungekürzt.

    The concept for this book developed because of Active Spiritual Warfare against Donald Trump and those that support him that arose by witches and those that practice the dark arts.  For those that are unaware, in February 2017 media outlets worldwide indicated that witches would be conducting spiritual warfare against President Donald Trump and those that support him. Their end goal is to bind him and hinder him apparently from keeping his campaign promises to Make America Great Again. These witches plan to continue every month with the rituals until President Trump is no longer in office. Now one has to ask themselves, “Why”? Why would witches and those that practice the occult and live in the United States not want to Make America Great Again? Would not making America Great Again benefit them as well? Of course it would, but for them there is a higher calling, for them bringing about the destruction of the United States is critical to ushering in their New World Order. ungekürzt.

    The professional judgment of gatekeepers defined the American news agenda for decades. Making the News Popular examines how subsequent events brought on a post-professional period that opened the door for imagining that consumer preferences should drive news production - and unleashed both crisis and opportunity on journalistic institutions. Anthony Nadler charts a paradigm shift, from market research's reach into the editorial suite in the 1970s through contemporary experiments in collaborative filtering and social news sites like Reddit and Digg. As Nadler shows, the transition was and is a rocky one. It also goes back much further than many experts suppose. Idealized visions of demand-driven news face obstacles with each iteration. Furthermore, the post-professional philosophy fails to recognize how organizations mobilize interest in news and public life. Nadler argues that this civic function of news organizations has been neglected in debates on the future of journalism. Only with a critical grasp of news outlets' role in stirring broad interest in democratic life, he says, might journalism's digital crisis push us towards building a more robust and democratic news media.  The book is published by University of Illinois Press.  ungekürzt.
