The Gullah: The History and Legacy of the African American Ethnic Group in the American Southeast , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 88min
“If you do not know where you're going, you should know where you come from.” (Old Gullah Proverb)Charming drawls, bluegrass bops, NASCAR, mouthwatering barbecues, and the Great Smoky Mountains are all customs that make America’s Deep South home to some of the most vibrant, powerfully evocative, and culturally rich subregions on the continent, tethered to a heritage that rose from the ashes of the Civil War.There exists, however, a lesser-known, but equally indispensable subculture based within a 500-mile radius of the coastal South Atlantic states and Sea Islands. These culture bearers, who refer to themselves as the Gullah Geechee, or the “Gullah” for short, are the descendants and rightful heirs of the once-shackled slaves who resided in these parts. As the guardians and torch holders of the incredible legacy left behind by their persevering ancestors, the modern Gullah spare no effort in preserving the inherently unique customs and traditions, complete with their own creole tongue, that have been passed down from one generation to the next.Of course, the first Gullah people were not natives of the Deep South, nor were they eager immigrants who willingly crossed the North Atlantic in the hopes of landing opportunities available only in the “land of the free”. Rather, the Gullah were normal, everyday people who were forcibly extracted from their homes and shipped like chattel to a foreign land, where they were sold, purchased, and put to work on plantations, mines, factories, and elsewhere. Simply put, they were an ill-starred, yet fiercely diligent people who made the most out of their unimaginably horrific fates, constructing their own colorful customs and a remarkable legacy for their future successors.A number of notable figures have been linked with the Gullah in recent years. Michelle Obama, for instance, is said to be a descendant of a Gullah slave who once dwelled in a cotton plantation in the Low Country region of South Caro ungekürzt. Language: English.

Secrets of Mental Math - Master the Art: Advanced Calculation and Memorization All in Your Head , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 82min
Mathematics is not a new subject to us because almost everyone knows how to count either with fingers or pen and paper in whichever language we are comfortable with. Math is not only the game of numbers but also the language of nature. As a matter of fact, it has been established through research that the more we understand our universe, the more we discover interesting mathematical connections. For instance, flowers have spirals that are carefully lined up in a special sequence of numbers commonly referred to as Fibonacci numbers. This sequence can be studied, understood, and generated. A study on seashells also revealed that they form perfect mathematical curves known as logarithmic spirals that originate from a chemical balance. Apart from the flowers and seashells, star clusters also form a mathematical arrangement in the way they tag on one another. This has been observed through astronomical studies. Scientists including mathematicians have spent centuries trying to discover the nature of math and how to develop a mastery of the same. It is possible to get comfortable with calculations of any nature as long as you discover the secrets behind the numbers. The reason why it is important to unravel and enhance your command of math is because numbers are part and parcel of our daily lives, even in ways that at times we don't notice. For example, if you need to call someone, you need a phone number. The time you spend on your phone conversation is measured in hours and minutes, which are also numbers. Think of any date in history, including your birthday, graduation day or just any other significant day and you will find that recording it in numbers is much easier than in any other form. This book will show you the tricks and shortcuts that will make math so intriguing. You will definitely impress your friends and colleagues with your lightning fast calculating ability. ungekürzt.

Why Veganism Is Not the Optimal Dietary Choice, the Hidden Health Issues of the Vegan Diet, and Why Whole Grains, Seeds, Nuts, and Legumes Are Deadly Food Groups , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 33min
This essay sheds light on why veganism is not the optimal dietary choice and also elucidates the myriad of health issues associated with the vegan diet. Additionally, the reasons whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes can be deemed deadly food groups are delineated in this essay.Veganism has gained significant traction over the years and is falsely touted as the optimal diet, which is an erroneous fallacy. Raw fruitarism is in fact the utmost healthiest diet since it only limits food choices to the only two healthy food groups, fruits and vegetables. While veganism does promote the consumption of some health food groups, such as fruits and vegetables, it also permits the consumption of unhealthy food groups, such as whole grains and legumes. It is incumbent to desist from consuming whole grains, refined grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds if you desire to optimize your health and avert succumbing to dire health issues, such as comprising your gut health.It is ill-advised to consume whole grains, refined grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds primarily because they are eminently taxing on the digestive system and are laced with anti-nutrients. For instance, the phytates and phytic acid in whole grains can inhibit or minimize the absorption of certain minerals, such as iron, calcium, and zinc.Moreover, the consumption of these aforementioned protein-dense plant-based food groups can potentially decimate the microvilli overtime and also wreak havoc on the gut lining. The microvilli play a critical role in allowing the small intestine to absorb vital nutrients, vitamins, and minerals.The human body does not have the anatomy to efficaciously break down the complex amino acids found in grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Furthermore, the body is not designed to seamlessly digest these aforementioned protein-dense plant-based foods. These protein-dense food groups also contain lectins, a plant-based protein which acts can be harmful to the body and gut ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jackie Marie.

The Cult of the Apis Bull: The History and Legacy of Ancient Egypt's Most Famous Sacred Animal , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 77min
Africa may have given rise to the first human beings, and Egypt probably gave rise to the first great civilizations, which continue to fascinate modern societies across the globe nearly 5,000 years later. From the Library and Lighthouse of Alexandria to the Great Pyramid at Giza, the Ancient Egyptians produced several wonders of the world, revolutionized architecture and construction, created some of the world’s first systems of mathematics and medicine, and established language and art that spread across the known world. With world-famous leaders like King Tut and Cleopatra, it’s no wonder that today’s world has so many Egyptologists. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of ancient Egyptian civilization was its inception from the ground up, as the ancient Egyptians had no prior civilization which they could use as a template. In fact, ancient Egypt itself became a template for the civilizations that followed. To the ancient Egyptians, the gods and goddesses were all around them and could be seen daily in nature. Nearly every animal found in ancient Egypt, both domestic and wild, were associated with a god or goddess, which can be seen in Egyptian art where deities are often depicted with human bodies and animal heads. Or sometimes the deities are portrayed as complete animals. Since deities were associated with certain animals, all animals of a specific species were given divine and protected status. The reverence that ancient Egyptians had for certain animals evolved during the long duration of Pharaonic history until the Late Period animals of specific species were mummified by the thousands as offerings for their associated deities. For instance, ibises were mummified for the god Thoth, while cats were mummified for the goddess Bastet. Modern archaeologists have uncovered most of the Late Period animal mummies in the region near the modern village of Saqqara, which has become known as the Sacred Animal Necropolis.

The Tiers of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, How Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory Is Related to the Workplace Environment, and How Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Can Impact an Individual's Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 14min
This essay sheds light on the tiers of Maslow's hierarchy of needs and elucidates how Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory is related to the workplace environment. Additionally, how Maslow's hierarchy of needs can affect an individual’s life is delineated in this essay. "Abraham Maslow developed a model in which basic, low-level needs such as physiological requirements and safety must be satisfied before higher-level needs such as self-fulfillment are pursued. In this hierarchical model, when a need is mostly satisfied it no longer motivates and the next higher need takes its place. For instance, physiological needs are those required to sustain life, such as air, water, nourishment, and sleep. Once physiological needs are met, one's attention turns to safety and security in order to be free from the threat of physical and emotional harm. Such needs might be fulfilled by living in a safe area, having medical insurance, having job security, and by having financial reserves. Once a person has met the lower level physiological and safety needs, higher level needs become important, the first of which are social needs” ("Maslow's hierarchy of"). Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory is related to the workplace environment since it identifies the needs that give employees the motivation, drive, and impetus to work, such as being able to satisfy psychological needs and safety needs. Furthermore, Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory impacts employees in the organizational environment since it identifies needs that every employee may be striving to fulfilling depending upon their position on the hierarchy. Managers can take note of these covetable needs employees seek to fulfill and subsequently leverage that knowledge to turn the subordinate’s job into an opportunity to help them satisfy those needs, such as by providing them with substantially more revenue so that employees can afford to meet their physiological needs. ungekürzt.

The Rāmāyana of Valmīki, Hörbuch, Digital, 2610min
The ancient Indian Sanskrit epic the Rāmāyana was composed some time between the first and fifth centuries BCE. As is the case with most ancient literature firmly rooted in the oral tradition, precise dating is problematic. Traditionally attributed to the sage Valmīki, and composed in rhyming couplets, it is one of the two great Indian epics (the other being the Mahābhārata); consequently it is known and revered not just throughout the Indian subcontinent but also in South-East Asian countries as well, including Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia - indeed wherever Hindu culture became established. It relates the tale of a Prince of Ayodhya, Rāma, and recounts the various episodes of his exile and subsequent return. The narrative follows Rāma's quest and rescue mission, bringing home his beloved Sita from the clutches of the demon king of Lanka, Ravana, aided by an army of monkeys. While the basic story involves palace politics and battles with demon tribes, it is also infused with ethics, philosophy, logic and notes on duty. In the Mahābhārata, characters are presented with all their human follies and failings; the Rāmāyana by contrast leans towards an ideal state of things. For instance, Rāma is the ideal son and king, Sita the ideal wife, Hanuman the ideal devotee, Lakshman and Bhārat the ideal brothers, and even Ravana, the demon villain, is not entirely despicable. This translation, by Ralph T. H. Griffith, first published in 1870, was the first complete English version and has retained its initial reputation as an outstanding achievement - as much for its literary as its scholastic qualities. There are six Books or Khandas (a seventh which is sometimes included is generally regarded as a much later addition) containing some 24,000 verses which, as with the original, are presented in rhyming couplets. This makes the Rāmāyana of a similar length to the Iliad and Odyssey combined, and there are a handful of occasions w Language: English. Narrator: Sagar Arya.

Bulimia Nervosa and Eating Disorder: The Best Way to Stop Bulimia Nervosa and Eating Disorder , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 241min
Bulimia Nervosa and Eating DisorderThe likelihood of the entire medical state of bulimia nervosa continues to be gauged at between one as well as five percent, of females in the high-risk age range of original teens to mid-30's. Additionally, there are a lot more individuals of both sexes, relying on different types of bulimic behavior, perched precariously on the brink of fully-fledged bulimia nervosa.The bulk of bulimia patients get locked right into a vicious cycle of binging as well as purging. A binge can be a frenzied and rapid gorging of massive amounts of foods, or simply eating smaller quantities of food you believe you shouldn't have had. The thing that makes it a binge would be the sensation of not being in command. Binges specifically involve sweets, huge kilojoules items-food usually considered "forbidden", "fattening", or "bad". They frequently happen as reactions to emotions of depression, self-criticism, extreme dieting, or boredom.Binging might result in a frantic attempt to eliminate the meal and stop putting on weight. This particular method of clearing the body of unwanted foods is called purging. Appetite suppressants might additionally be used, along with these usually trap the bulimia sufferer more deeply into the worry cycle.
