Jane Boleyn: The True Story of the Infamous Lady Rochford, Hörbuch, Digital, 364min
In a life of extraordinary drama, Jane Boleyn was catapulted from relative obscurity to the inner circle of King Henry VIII. As powerful men and women around her became victims of Henry's ruthless and absolute power, including her own husband and sister-in-law, Queen Anne Boleyn, Jane's allegiance to the volatile monarchy was sustained and rewarded. But the price for her loyalty would eventually be her undoing and the ruination of her name. For centuries, little beyond rumor and scandal has been associated with "the infamous Lady Rochford". But now historian Julia Fox sets the record straight and restores dignity to this much-maligned figure whose life and reputation were taken from her.Born to aristocratic parents in the English countryside, young Jane Parker found a suitable match in George Boleyn, brother to Anne, the woman who would eventually be the touchstone of England's greatest political and religious crisis. Once settled in the bustling, spectacular court of Henry VIII as the wife of a nobleman, Jane was privy to the regal festivities of masques and jousts, royal births and funerals, and she played an intimate part in the drama and gossip that swirled around the king's court. Drawing upon her own deep knowledge and years of original research, Julia Fox brings us into the inner sanctum of court life, laced with intrigue and encumbered by disgrace. Through the eyes and ears of Jane Boleyn, we witness the myriad players of the stormy Tudor period. Jane emerges as a courageous spirit, a modern woman forced by circumstances to fend for herself in a privileged but vicious world. Language: English. Narrator: Jenny Sterlin.

Experiencing challenges, being broken, and having to pick up the pieces of our lives is part of the human condition. Eventually, we learn how to fit those pieces back together so they make sense, we are stronger, and our faith becomes greater.Steven Edgley knows about putting the pieces back together after experiencing a devastating life event. As a stroke survivor, he has written Life Between Two Gardens to record his amazing journey of survival, recovery, and faith in the Lord. His story of overcoming a stroke serves as a metaphor for overcoming whatever challenges we all face in life.In these chapters, you will find words of comfort and reassurance that a loving God is intimately aware of our individual circumstances and will provide tender support for our needs. Even though there may be hardship, strife, and even evil cast around us, and times of darkness when we cry out for a lantern to guide the way, we will eventually see that it is the Father’s love that built this stage called earth. We are actors on this stage, living life in the frame between two important gardens - the Garden of Eden, which set the stage for our subsequent evolving purpose, hope, and joy in our Redeemer, and which culminated in the Garden of Gethsemane.On this stage we learn the lessons we most need to prepare us for the next aspect of our eternal lives. Steven Edgley invites you to share some of your stage time with him. You will come to marvel with him over how the Lord allows us to be strengthened in surprising ways, and you will ultimately be empowered to act and achieve in ways only you and the Lord can envision for your life. ungekürzt.

Summary: Dan Harris' 10% Happier: How I Tamed the Voice in My Head, Reduced Stress Without Losing My Edge, and Found Self-Help That Actually Works: A True Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 21min
This is a summary of Dan Harris' 10% Happier: How I Tamed the Voice in My Head, Reduced Stress Without Losing My Edge, and Found Self-Help That Actually Works: A True Story, winner of the 2014 Living Now Book Award for Inspirational Memoir. After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out. Eventually Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes listeners on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America's spiritual scene and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives. This summary is aimed at those who want to capture the gist of the book but don't have the time to listen to the whole thing. You get the main summary along with all of the benefits and lessons the actual book has to offer. This summary is not intended to be used without reference to the original book. ungekürzt.

The Rip Off , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 692min
Chip Bannister ran the nation's largest real estate rip off from 1965 to 1974. He was the youngest of three boys; smooth, good looking and charming. An egomaniac, but, very smart, extremely cunning. He was an East Coast trust fund kid that attended USC, and then, with the help of his billionaire father, formed Bannister Financial in downtown Beverly Hills. Chip quickly discovered it was easier to simply raise new money, versus, executing the business plan. That was the beginning of a real estate Ponzi scheme that would eventually bankrupt the company and all the investors. One of Chip's college friends introduced him to Captain Donald D. Bowen, commanding officer, Point Mugu Naval Air Station, California. The military was his career; real estate was his business. Careful, discerning, smart and shrewd. It's easy to run a Ponzi scheme on a dummy, but, was it possible for Chip to pull it off on a guy like Captain Bowen who was meticulous and careful? The captain was naturally leery of Chip at first, but, ultimately they began doing some business over a one year period, 11 transactions total. And then the captain figured out the scam. By 1974, Chip knew the company was effectively bankrupt and hired a PR firm to blame the whole thing on his employees. The captain spent some time investigating and preparing; and then, he filed a lawsuit against Chip and Bannister Financial Inc. What Chip didn't know: he had messed with the wrong guy. The captain was the current leader of The Team, a mythic group of World War I veterans that included the captain's father. The Team would eventually do what the courts could not dispense real justice on playboy rip-off artist, Chip Bannister. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alan Wade.

Finding Edith: Surviving the Holocaust in Plain Sight , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 608min
Finding Edith: Surviving the Holocaust in Plain Sight is the coming-of-age story of a young Jewish girl chased in Europe during World War II. Like a great adventure story, the book describes the childhood and adolescence of a Viennese girl growing up against the backdrop of the Great Depression, the rise of Nazism, World War II, and the religious persecution of Jews throughout Europe. Edith was hunted in Western Europe and Vichy France, where she was hidden in plain sight, constantly afraid of discovery and denunciation. Forced to keep every thought to herself, Edith developed an intense inner life. After spending years running and eventually hiding alone, she was smuggled into Switzerland. Deprived of schooling, Edith worked at various jobs until the end of the war when she was able to rejoin her mother, who had managed to survive in France.After the war, the truth about the death camps and the mass murder on an industrial scale became fully known. Edith faced the trauma of Germany’s depravity, the murder of her father and older brother in Auschwitz, her mother’s irrational behavior, and the extreme poverty of the postwar years. She had to make a living but also desperately wanted to catch up on her education. What followed were seven years of struggle, intense study, and hard work until finally, against considerable odds, Edith earned the Baccalauréat in 1949 and the Licence ès Lettres from the University of Toulouse in 1952 before coming to the United States. In America, Edith started at the bottom like all immigrants and eventually became a professor and later a financial adviser and broker. Since her retirement, Edith dedicates her time to publicly speaking about her experiences and the lessons from her life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Serra Hirsch.

Robinson Crusoe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 610min
Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe tells the story of a young Englishman who, against the best advice of his father, decides to leave his comfortable surroundings and take to the high seas in search of adventure. However, upon securing his first voyage, he begins to realize that a sailor's life is not as easy as he had imagined - and the experience he goes through is just the start of a series of events that will eventually lead him to be stranded on a desert island for the best part of three decades. When he first arrives on the island, he thinks all is lost, and although he is the only one to make it to the shore alive when all his other shipmates have been killed, he curses his misfortune at being left on this desolate land. But he soon starts to make the best of his surroundings, building himself a home and learning how to feed himself. But when he discovers the island is occasionally visited by cannibals, he sees his quiet life turned upside down. He will eventually find a friend when he confronts these savages and rescues one who is about to be eaten. But all he can think of is getting back home to England, and when an opportunity presents itself to escape his solitude, he must fight a band of mutineers to secure his freedom. The book was first published in 1719 and originally led a lot of people to think it was a true story, as the eponymous castaway was credited as the author. It is considered to have been the beginning of realistic fiction as a literary genre and remains a classic to this day. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David McCallion.

The Stair of Time: The Lost Kingdoms of Laotswend Trilogy, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 679min
The Stair of Time chronicles the continuing adventures of Andaris Rocaren, beginning where book one of the trilogy, The Eight Walls of Rogar, left off. Following the conclusion of The Shapeling Wars, our hero sets out with Gaven and Gramps in search of both a cure for Mandie, and a way back to Fairhaven. The Lost City of Laotswend, the ancestral home of the Lenoy, holds the keys to both. If only they can find it. Utilizing an ensorcelled map loaned to them by the wizard Ashel, as well as the lore of a forgotten age, they eventually succeed in locating the boundary which separates their world from the Lenoy's, passing through a magical veil into a land that is as extraordinary as it is treacherous. When Andaris becomes separated from his companions on The Stair of Time, the nexus between worlds, he loses not only his way, but also himself, his surroundings becoming as ethereal as a dream. Attempting to discern what is fact from what is fiction, he wanders the stairs like a ghost, utterly alone, becoming more disheartened with each step, until, eventually, he is forced to come to terms with an uncomfortable truth about the nature of life, reality, and himself. To be sure, all is not as it seems as he explores the secret and circuitous paths between worlds, traveling from points in time and space as routinely as other people step through a door. The numerous threads of the tale in which he finds himself so embroiled, weave together into a complex tapestry that he must unravel if he is to accomplish his goals and live to adventure another day! ungekürzt.

Deep Learning: An Essential Guide to Deep Learning for Beginners Who Want to Understand How Deep Neural Networks Work and Relate to Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min
If you want to learn about Deep Learning then keep reading....It’s said that filling the observable universe with an infinite number of monkeys on infinite typewriters and letting them type for an infinite amount of time would eventually produce Shakespeare’s works. However, what would happen if we applied the infinite monkey theorem to computer programs capable of learning and evolution? Would a thousand such smart machines thrown together and allowed to evolve undisturbed produce a human mind or something much greater? Well, scientists decided to give it a go and see what happened.That line of reasoning, alongside the fact we’ve nearly exhausted all the possible progress of the scientific method, motivated the creation of deep learning, a process in which computer programs meant to learn and adapt to the environment evolve on their own without any human intervention or even knowledge how their evolution occurs. Such software could eventually develop a will of its own and escape containment or even be intentionally unleashed on the planet as a cyber-weapon.This audiobook analyzes the validity of such seemingly preposterous possibilities while compiling and investigating academic research concerning deep learning and its practical applications, referencing, and quick summarizing of numerous academic writings that need to be meticulously picked apart by the curious listener - who can then truly understand what lies ahead of us all in a future dominated by smart machines. If that same listener finds themselves starting up exhaustive conversations with complete strangers on deep learning, this book has done its job superbly. So if you want to learn about Deep Learning without having to go through heavy textbooks, listen to this audiobook now! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sam Slydell.
