The Shark and the Fish: Applying Poker Strategies to Business Leadership , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 397min
Patience and aggression are key elements of a successful poker strategy, but also, as this innovative and accessible guide reveals, to a successful leadership strategy in business decisions. Acclaimed poker instructor Charles Swayne presents down-to-earth career advice using a language that makes the valuable guidance both relatable and understandable - the language of poker. The logic-based viewpoint built upon proven strategies will be a welcome relief to individuals who have been turned off by self-help books that use empty metaphors and promises and are looking to give their professional circumstances a boost or improve their daily corporate interactions. In poker and in business there are written rules - and unwritten ones as well. Offering such insight as considering the perspectives of others during a negotiation in the same manner as reading hands and players, and understanding the stakes and accepting financial limitations in the mindset of raising a bet, this business success guide will inspire confidence and purpose in both the boardroom and at the card table. ungekürzt.

Gideon's Curse: A Novel of Old Mill, NC , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 438min
Just after the Civil War, a preacher named Gideon Swayne journeyed south from Random, Illinois to minister to the newly freed slaves. In the bitter prejudice of North Carolina, and the magic of the Great Dismal Swamp, he made a home...that home was taken from him in hatred, and in violence. The Pope plantation is mired in the "old ways", migrants work their land so they don't have to get their hands too dirty. There are older ways than the Pope family, built on slave labor and mired in their own past, can imagine. Their farm hand, Gideon, has seen his mother's reflection in the slime-pools of the bog. He's heard his grandfather, the first Gideon at Preacher's Marsh, chanting on the night breeze. He has seen eyes, glowing green and glittering with hatred, lining the trees along the fields and peering from the trees. He has heard voices like drumbeats chanting in the night. The dead are rising, and they are coming. Soon. Gideon's Curse is a novel of history. It's a novel of freedom, slavery, magic, and romance. It's a glance into the violent past of the Deep South and the hope of a better future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cary Hite.

Charlotte Fairlie (eBook, ePUB)
Yes, her job was the loneliest in the world. No king, no dictator set high upon a pinnacle, was as friendless as the headmistress of a girls' school.Charlotte Fairlie loves her position at the illustrious St. Elizabeth's, but it's not without its challenges-first among them her trouble-making maths mistress Miss Pinkerton, who yearns for Charlotte's job and spares no effort to complicate her life. Then there's the charming Lawrence Swayne, headmaster of a nearby boys' school, who has plans of his own for Charlotte's future. But it's the arrival of Tessa MacRynne, desperately homesick for the Scottish isle of Targ and distraught about her parents' impending divorce, who really stirs things up-giving Miss Pinkerton fresh ammunition, helping the unfortunate Eastwoods, who cower beneath their father's snide, critical personality, and inspiring Charlotte to spend an unforgettable holiday on Targ. Adventures, pleasures, misunderstandings, and tragedies follow, told with D.E. Stevenson's inimitable sensitivity and humour, and Charlotte's loneliness is soon forgotten . . .First published in 1954 and long out of print, Charlotte Fairlie is the irresistible, sometimes poignant tale of a talented professional woman gaining a new lease on life. This new edition includes an autobiographical sketch by the author."Miss Stevenson has her own individual and charming way of seeing things." Western Mail- Shop: buecher

my life as a country album: my life as an album, book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min
They said we were soulmates...and we were. Even the stars agreed. But fate did not....Tomboy Cam Swayne is determined that football hero, Jake Phillips, keeps his eyes firmly on her. After all, she’s been his since before she was born. Cam has grown up so close to Jake that it’s as if she’s his left arm. They’ve played together on the street and at the lake since she could walk. Plus, they’ve saved each other in some pretty miraculous ways that even their parents found hard to believe. So, it’s only natural that, when hormones kick in, Cam feels like Jake belongs only to her. Jake doesn’t admit it to anyone, but he’s only himself when the girl next door is at his side. Even though he’s three years older than her and there’s a whole string of reasons for them not to be together, he can’t seem to walk away from the one girl who makes him feel whole. But what happens when it’s not just the long line of “gaggling geese” following him around that gets in Cam’s way? What happens when it’s the illness that Jake hides from everyone? Will Cam ever get the happily ever after she’s looking for? "Loving you was a race I was determined to win." Inspired by Taylor Swift songs, comes the award-winning coming-of-age novel about aching love and loss and learning to live again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sarah Puckett.

Alice Guy Blaché
Katja Raganelli porträtiert zwei weithin vergessene Pionierinnen Filmgeschichte: Die Französin Alice Guy, die erste Filmemacherin der Welt, die in den USA ein Filmstudio aufbaute und leitete, sowie Margery Wilson, Stummfilmstar in Filmen von David Wark Griffith und William S. Hart, deren eigene Regiearbeiten heute als verloren gelten. Die Doppel-DVD präsentiert rare Filmdokumente und Interviews mit Zeitzeugen sowie sieben neu restaurierte Komödien von Alice Guy Blaché.
