Influence: Science and Practice, ePub, 5th Edition , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 745min
Influence: Science and Practice is an examination of the psychology of compliance (i.e. uncovering which factors cause a person to say "yes" to another's request). Written in a narrative style combined with scholarly research, Cialdini combines evidence from experimental work with the techniques and strategies he gathered while working as a salesperson, fundraiser, advertiser, and in other positions inside organizations that commonly use compliance tactics to get us to say "yes." Widely used in classes, as well as sold to people operating successfully in the business world, the eagerly awaited revision of Influence reminds the listener of the power of persuasion. Cialdini organizes compliance techniques into six categories based on psychological principles that direct human behavior: reciprocation, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity. ungekürzt.

Seafoam , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 35min
Jeremy, an infamous foot fetishist doomed to the quirkiest 12-step group ever, falls off the wagon spectacularly when he meets Beverly. She is a "beneather", one of an alien species living alongside us after rising from the depths of the ocean. She is perfect for Jeremy. Smart. Beautiful. Great feet. But does Beverly's reciprocation smack of a sinister and slimy secret? Will Jeremy's probation officer revoke his freedom before he meets a bitter, sweaty end? And more importantly, did someone remember to bring donuts and coffee to the 12-step group? In this short tale of aliens, foot fetishism, and life choices gone horribly awry, Mark Henry returns to his roots, stirring up comedy and horror, muddling in a little sex, and serving it up ice cold. ungekürzt.

Bhagavad-gita: A Summary Study , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min
Acclaimed by scholars for its authenticity and clarity, Bhagavad-gita: A Summary Study reveals and brings to life the Gita's spiritual wisdom and its beautiful themes of harmony and purpose, work and attitude, love and reciprocation. We're challenged and inspired through its answers to probing questions: What is my identity beyond the body and mind? What is my purpose? How can I be satisfied while in the midst of a turbulent world? Why is life worth living? What happens after death?"In this world," the Gita boldly declares, "there is nothing so sublime and pure as transcendental knowledge. Such knowledge is the mature fruit of all mysticism." For those who dare to think of aligning their consciousness with that of the Divine's, the Gita's wisdom offers a fulfilling life of inner serenity, balance, and love. In Bhagavad-gita: A Summary Study, the depth, resonance, and potency of the original Sanskrit text remains intact as it calls upon each of us to fulfill our highest potential. ungekürzt.

Your Next 24 Hours: One Day of Kindness Can Change Everything , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 199min
If asked, who among us wouldn't say we were kind people? But kindness is often manifested in feelings of pity or sympathy - especially when others are watching - rather than in deeds.

Your Next 24 Hours is about something much bigger - a lifestyle of kindness, without thought of reciprocation, extended toward every person in our lives, both friend and foe. Through powerful true stories of kindness lived out, this book shows listeners the enormous difference they can make through small, doable acts of kindness in their families, communities, workplaces, schools, and churches. It shows how every encounter with another person is an opportunity to be kind - and a chance to change our world. Listeners of Your Next 24 Hours will find deep satisfaction and joy as they discover how they can be part of a revolution of kindness that starts with them and reaches out through every person their lives touch. ungekürzt.

Songs from Home: Art Songs & Folk Songs from the Philippines
Songs From Home: Art Songs and Folk Songs from the Philippines Philippine vocal music is as varied as the numerous islands that comprise it's archipelago. Though traditional folk songs are a rich confluence of the country's colonial and indigenous past, it remains distinct from it's various influences. Those featured in this album cover several provinces across the country's major regions (Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao), each detailing rural experiences that capture not only pastoral imagery but the Filipino traits of love, community, the penchant for humor and play. After several periods of powerful colonization, a movement against western musical traditions began to grow in the early 20th century. Composers pursued the restoration or re-creation of a musical identity that was truly Filipino, much of which was greatly based on themes and rhythms established by traditional folk music. The Philippine Art Song around such a time was born. Slow and sentimental, these art songs not only aimed to glorify the talents of local composers and lyricists, it actually celebrated the achievement of a unique Filipino musical identity. Such musical nationalism eventually carried on decades later with popular songs that catered to a wider audience, infiltrating various media like TV, film, and radio. With much pride, I present to you this collection of Philippine musical gems, each piece holding some significance close to my heart. It is my hope that what I hear and feel each time I sing these works will transport you similarly through a journey of my homeland, the Philippines. Joseph Legaspi Sitsiritsit Based on a childhood playground rhyme, nonsensical text and rhythmic onomatopoeia characterize this playful song. It humorously puts together charmingly peculiar scenes and images that include gold and green beetles, women parading around like roosters, babies being bartered for fish paste (bagoong) or a doll, rice flour cookies (puto seko), and even the Child Jesus (Sto. Niño) finds it's way into the song. Lagi Kitang Naaalala An earnest love song that deals with nostalgia and unrequited love, the persona in this piece continues to pine for the affections of his beloved. Written by Leopoldo Silos, Sr., one of the well-known purveyors of Original contemporary Filipino Music, this song exemplifies his abilities as a composer of ballads and romantic tunes. Solis was also known as a master arranger and singer, and was awarded for his musical direction of the television musical "Aawitan Kita" (I'll Sing For You). Pamulinawen This song originates from the Ilocos region, northern Philippines. Many often mistake this as a traditional folksong when it had actually been written during the turn of the century. This is perhaps due to the fact that it utilizes the customary pattern of likening an amour to the idyllic surroundings and it's rather simple depiction of unreciprocated love. In this case, the woman is likened to that of a stone, stoic to the wooing of a man's affections. Manang Biday A traditional Ilokano folksong, this piece refers to a woman named "Biday" (the title "Manang" used as a sign of respect in the Ilocos region and in several parts of the country). The man is asking Biday to look outside her window and listen to his plea. The piece is interestingly cast in two contrasting eight-measure periods (parts A and B), the entire text composed of eight nine-syllable lines. The first four lines (part A) refer to the lover's plea for attention, while the next four (part B) contain Manang Biday's rejection of him. No Dua Dua-em Pay A traditional folksong from the Ilocos Region, north of the Philippines, this popular piece tells of a lover's fervent plea for reciprocation from his beloved who is doubtful of his feelings for her. A unique character of the piece is it's use of the Cuban habanera rhythm. One of the outcomes of 300 years of Spanish colonization, this musical style is more locally known as a 'danza', evident in many of the folksongs during the era. Sarung Banggi This contemplative piece is one of the Bicol region's most popular songs. Written in 1912, it has been performed constantly across the archipelago, adapted into various mediums by numerous composers: piano (R. Santos), choral (L. D. San Pedro), solo voice with piano accompaniment (F. De Leon, C. de Guzman, E. Pajaro), rondalla ensemble (A. Buenaventura), and symphonic theme (F. Buencamino). Aside from it's elegant melody, the lyricism of it's words evokes certain sophistication as the persona beholds the presence of his amour. Si Nanay, Si Tatay Di Co Babayaan Akin to most kundimans, this piece is written in a minor key and is in slow ¾ time. These aspects reinforce the significance of the subject matter, which tackles the relationship between parent and child, admonishing the latter's gratitude and service in return for having been cared for since birth. This Bicolano song is composed of four phrases, each beginning with similar rhythmic patterns that are sung on the same note. Dandansoy A sentimental and melancholic theme pervades throughout this traditional Visayan folksong. Originating from middle region of the Philippine archipelago (Kulasi, Antique), the piece is set in a minor key and written in slow triple time similar to many kundimans. The song's persona bids a sad farewell to his lover, urging her to look toward the direction of his departure should she begin to miss him. Several versions shift to a major key in the middle section, intensifying the piece's emotion by casting hope in the persona's possible change of heart. Ahay, Tuburan Like many folksongs passed on orally through generations, it is possible that the piece would veer away from the original, it's lyrics the result of varying translations and interpretations. Though it finds it's origins in the Visayan region (Aklan), another version of this gem was heard in the Mindanao region (Cotobato). This particular version is based on a transcription of the song collected and recorded in 1956 in Aklan by Priscilla Magdamo, one of the pioneers in the field of Philippine ethnomusicology. The piece poignantly conveys the emotions felt during farewells, of having to yield personal happiness to more pressing matters. Damgo Man Lang Written in 1982, this song from the Bohol region deals with social realities that include injustice and deprivation, and the dream of eventually finding truth and rising above all that muddle it. Though it was primarily created as a love song, several revisions had resulted into a powerful commentary on Philippine society, it's themes remaining relevant to this day. The piece had won the grand prize during the 1983 Cebu Pop Music Festival, the original version sung by Arthur Ungab, one of Bohol region's celebrated voices in contemporary music. Usahay With it's unforgettable and dreamy melody, this popular love song was recorded with the composer as 'unknown." Popular recording artists Susan Fuentes, Dulce and Pilita Corrales were among those who recorded this Visayan melody. It has been recently discovered that the real composer was Col. Gregorio Labja, a largely unacknowledged but venerable and prolific composer from Tagum, Davao del Norte, of the Visayan region. This is the first time in this song's history that Labja is acknowledged publicly as the song's genuine composer. Originally composed for the male voice, as it was dedicated to a lady whom the composer courted, the first recording by Susan Fuentes omitted a stanza that would attribute to the male voice. Sukta ang Kabulakan A folksong from the Visayas region, found in central Philippines, this piece likens a fair maiden and her affections to blossoms in a garden, the metaphor characteristic of songs during the Spanish colonial era. This piece may very well be an example of the 'balitaw' musical form prevalent then, an exchange of love poetry between two singers. Usually sung in a quatrain or ballad stanza, the 'balitaw' can go on for some length either re- Shop: odax
