    Fierce Salon - Rinse: Season Two , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 258min
    This is a serialized novel. Each episode is a cliffhanger. For mature listeners. The season two set includes episodes 6-10. Nate and Amy stop trying to deny their attraction to each other. Once they give in to their desires, everything is wonderful...until Nate's ex shows up with a three-year-old in tow. Carly meets not one man but two, and has to make a decision she never thought she'd be faced with: choosing one hot man over another. Although, if the hints she's getting are sincere, she may not have to choose at all. Andre and Frankie are getting to know each other but agree to take it slow when Andre admits just how inexperienced with men he really is. Olivia continues to struggle with cutting out nicotine, but her new vice proves to be much more hazardous to her health. After driving away the one man she thought she could spend the rest of her life with, she falls prey to a dangerous stranger. Warning: There is a rape scene at the end of episode 10. Written as a short sitcom, each episode provides glimpses into the different characters at Fierce and the daily drama they face as young, attractive millennials in Menlo Park, California. Each episode creates as many new questions as it answers. Listen as they are released, or wait for the entire season to be published as one book. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Lucidity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 483min
    Dreams and deception collide in David Carnoy's suspenseful tale of murder, manipulation, and mistaken identity. After Knife Music, his "gripping thriller debut" (Kirkus Reviews) and The Big Exit, called a "page-turner" (Examiner.com), David Carnoy's Detective Hank Madden returns in this bicoastal caper that pits dreams against reality, where nothing can be taken at face value. Twenty years after the unsolved case of Stacey Walker's disappearance went cold, a Silicon Valley executive hires the retired Menlo Park police detective Hank Madden to find her body and track down her missing husband, the prime suspect in her unsolved murder. Four months later, author Candace Epstein is pushed in front of a car near New York City's Central Park. Her editor, Max Fremmer, becomes entangled in the investigation of her attempted murder, though he is adamant that he is uninvolved. As he digs into Candace's background to clear his own name, Fremmer grows suspicious of his client's connection to a nefarious institute for lucid dreaming on the Upper East Side and its staff, whose stories never seem to add up - all while an unexpected link to Madden's investigation in California emerges. As similarities arise between the cases on each coast, Madden and Fremmer forge an unlikely partnership to expose what misconduct lurks beneath the façade of the Lucidity Center - but can they unravel the secret that links their investigations in time, or are they only dreaming? Carnoy's Lucidity stuns with complex detail that will keep listeners guessing until the final, satisfying jolt. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: R.C. Bray.

    History for Kids: The Illustrated Life of Thomas Edison , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    He led no armies into battle, he conquered no countries, and he enslaved no peoples.... Nonetheless, he exerted a degree of power the magnitude of which no warrior ever dreamed. His name still commands a respect as sweeping in scope and as world-wide as that of any other mortal - a devotion rooted deep in human gratitude and untainted by the bias that is often associated with race, color, politics, and religion. In Charles River Editors' History for Kids series, your children can learn about history's most important people and events in an easy, entertaining, and educational way. The concise but comprehensive book will keep your kid's attention all the way to the end. Thomas Edison holds a unique legacy in the United States, but there's no denying that his inventions have benefited the world as a whole. Known as "The Wizard of Menlo Park", every American knows that their nation's most prolific inventor harnessed the power of electricity to create the first light bulb. But that was just one of over 1,000 patents Edison would establish during his life, as he not only dreamed up new devices but also revolutionized the way materials were mass produced. His life's work heavily influenced everything from electric power, batteries and lighting to cement, telegraphy and mining. While Edison's inventions are important, what he represented was also critical to the nation as a whole. Edison represented the American Dream, specifically the notion that hard work can accomplish anything, and he always understood that himself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tracey Norman.

    To the Best of Our Knowledge: Saving the World, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
    In this hour, as the world gets smaller, cultural collisions are all around us, including the language that surrounds us. We're constantly searching for new and better ways to communicate. Blogger Ben Schott's job for the New York Times is to troll the internet for new and noteworthy words. He tells Steve Paulson these words tell us volumes about the times we live in. Next, when most of us are having trouble find the right words to make sense of the world, we turn to writers. They usually let their books do the talking, but occasionally we get to hear it straight from the authors themselves. Richard Fairmont recently produced a set of CDs for the BBC that include rare recordings of the prominent writers. They're called The Spoken Word: British Writers and The Spoken Word: American Writers. Fairmont tells Steve Paulson all about it. Also, the search for a common tongue has moved us in many directions. To the surprise of many, English has filled in the gaps, or at least a version of English. Robert McCrum is the author of Globish: How the English Language Became the World's Language. He tells Jim Fleming how English became Globish.In such a complex world, sometimes simple is best, and what could be simpler than a bumper sticker? Menlo School philosophy teacher Jack Bowen isn't fooled, however. In in book "If You Can Read This: The Philosophy of Bumper Stickers," he points out that restricting yourself to eight or nine words can be far more complex than you would expect. He tells Anne Strainchamps how he got interested in bumper stickers. [Broadcast Date: May 27, 2011] Language: English.

    Giants & Heroes: A Daughter's Memories of Y.A. Tittle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 518min
    Football Giant Y. A. Tittle was the most magical and unlikely quarterback hero of the 1960s - the old man performing miracles in a young man game - as he lifted a mediocre New York Giants team to championship level and earned his place in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Dianne Tittle de Laet, an accomplished poet and harpist - who also happens to be the daughter of Y. A. Tittle - has written a life of the man that, unlike any other football book, is at its heart a father/daughter story. Assembled in the manner of a scrapbook of memories, family lore, and photographs, Giants & Heroes follows Y. A. through his youth in East Texas, his college days at LSU, and a professional career in which he shattered passing records while playing for the Baltimore Colts, the San Francisco 49ers, and the Giants. As a girl, de Laet was consumed by a passion for the ancient Greeks, their poetry, music, and values, and had little interest in her father's "work". It was only later in life, when she herself became the mother of a teenage football player, that she began to think about the game's mysteries and came to appreciate the courage and special finesse which made her father - "Y. A." - a sports icon. Her journey into the past is at once a rediscovery of a long-gone era - when NFL quarterbacks called their own plays and, during the off-season, sold insurance door-to-door to make ends meet - and a daughter's intimate of her father.... Dianne Tittle de Laet is a poet and harpist. She lives with her husband in Menlo Park, Calif. This is her first published book. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dianne Tittle de Laet.

    Unafraid: Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 433min
    Learn how to face and overcome the fears we feel about loneliness, illness, financial insecurity, disappointing others, failure, insignificance, and aging.“A thoughtful, literate, faith-filled guide to reclaiming our minds and our lives.” (John Ortberg, senior pastor of Menlo Church and author of I’d Like You More If You Were More Like Me)You’d be hard-pressed to overstate the extent to which fear, anxiety, and worry permeate our lives today. Fear wreaks havoc on our relationships and communities. It leads us into making bad decisions. It holds us back from the very pursuits that promise fulfillment and joy.As the senior pastor of a large, diverse church in America’s heartland, Adam Hamilton has seen the cost of fear up close. When he surveyed his congregation on how fear affects them, 2,400 people responded - and what they said was eye-opening. Eighty percent admitted to living with moderate or significant levels of fear. Unafraid is Hamilton's insightful and impassioned response. Drawing on recent research, inspiring real-life examples, and fresh biblical insight, Hamilton uses  a mixture of facts and faith to help listeners understand and counter fears related to such outsize perils as death and illness, as well as the everyday anxieties all of us encounter. He invites us to:  Face our fears with a bias of hopeExamine our fears in light of the facts Attack our anxieties with action Release our cares to GodWriting with generosity and intelligence, Hamilton shows how believer and unbeliever alike can develop sustaining spiritual practices and embrace Jesus’ recurring counsel: “Do not be afraid.” For anyone struggling with fear or wondering how families and communities can thrive in troubled times, Unafraid offers an informed and inspiring message full of practical solutions.  ungekürzt.
