    Night of the Living Trekkies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 402min
    This sci-fi /zombie/comedy/adventure follows a group of rag-tag Trekkies getting together for the fifth annual FedCon (billed as the "largest Starfleet Convention in the western Gulf Coast region"). Our heroes are dressed in homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers but soon find themselves defending their hotel and convention center against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Suddenly, all of their useless knowledge about particle physics and old Star Trek episodes has genuine real-world applications! And while hotel employees and regular civilians are dying left and right, our Trekkies summon strength and courage by emulating their favorite starship-voyaging characters. Packed with hundreds of gags referencing Star Trek, comic books, and fan conventions, Night of the Living Trekkies reads like the strange lovechild of Galaxy Quest and Dawn of the Dead. Journey to the final frontier of zombie science-fiction mash-ups! This is an original work of parody and is not officially sponsored by, affiliated with, or endorsed by the owners of the Star Trek brand. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Zach McLarty.

    Zero to Paleo: A Beginners' Guide to Living the All-Natural and Gluten Free Lifestyle of Our Ancestors , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 390min
    For nearly two million years, humans and our hominid ancestors were eating in the hunter/gatherer style of foraging for a wide variety of healthy fruits and vegetables and then hunting and scavenging for large game. However, about 9,000 years ago, humans started eating in a manner contrary to their design, while living increasingly sedentary lives. In Zero to Paleo: A Beginners' Guide to Living the All-Natural and Gluten Free Lifestyle of Our Ancestors, Joseph SB Morse shows how we can achieve ultimate health by emulating our ancestors' hunter/gatherer lifestyle. You're about to embark on an insightful, and often humorous journey to discover how humans evolved to eat, what cultureless humans would eat, and how we can use that knowledge with today's technology and wealth to develop the ideal diet. Included in this edition is a detailed section on the most common food allergies and intolerances: Dairy, egg, peanut, seafood, shellfish, soy, tree nut, and wheat (including celiac). The benefits of Zero to Paleo are immediate and include attaining an ideal weight, achieving balanced energy throughout the day, better sleep, and alleviation of symptoms from food intolerances and allergies. If you've been asking yourself what and how we were designed to eat, Morse's Zero to Paleo is the answer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Adam Lofbomm.

    Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 536min
    Have you ever met someone who possessed a quiet radiance so rich and so dynamic that you ached for more? Someone whose presence is so compelling you feel refreshed by a single conversation with them? If you know someone like this, you anticipate your times together. You realize their joy is contagious, their peace is deep, and their compassion is engaging.Such people are “vibrant”. Regardless of their socioeconomic status, education, marital status, or health, these people are determined to live joyfully, seeing each obstacle as an opportunity for growth. The vibrant individual’s persona is attached to their convictions rather than their circumstances.Author Carol Burton McLeod believes everyone can choose to be vibrant by developing a deep and abiding joy for all seasons - and such a life begins by emulating Jesus. His life was filled with challenges, and yet people were drawn to him. Every character trait that we are called to embrace, every action of kindness or love, and each word of compassion or tenderness is a telling reflection of Christ within us. We are called to be a vibrant show-and-tell of what God is able to accomplish through one ordinary person.Carol explores what it means to follow Jesus in a world filled with disappointment, rejection, and discouragement. And she provides gentle encouragement and suggestions from Scripture to help us do just that. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carol McLeod.

    Color Correction Look Book (eBook, PDF)
    The digital colorist's job is no longer to simply balance, fix, and optimize. Today's filmmakers often want to recreate the idiosyncrasies of older recording methods, or are looking for something completely new, to differentiate the look of a given project. Furthermore, end-to-end digital shooting, postproduction, and distribution means that stylizations and effects once created by the film lab are no longer photochemically available. The color grading suite has become the lab, and these sorts of stylizations are now part of the colorist's job description. In this follow-up volume to the bestseller Color Correction Handbook, Alexis Van Hurkman walks you through twenty-one categories of creative grading techniques, designed to give you an arsenal of stylizations you can pull out of your hat when the client asks for something special, unexpected, and unique. Each chapter presents an in-depth examination and step-by-step, cross-platform breakdown of stylistic techniques used in music videos, commercial spots, and cinema. These customizable techniques can be mixed and matched for your own unique effects and include: . bleach bypass looks . cross-processing simulation . day-for-night treatments . emulating film stocks . flat looks . glows, blooms, and gauze looks . grain, noise, and texture . greenscreen compositing workflows . lens flaring and veiling glare . light leaks and color bleeds . monitor and screen glow . monochrome looks . sharpening . tints and color washes . undertones . vibrance and targeted saturation . and many more!

    Summary of Strengths Based Leadership by Tom Rath and Barry Conchie Includes Analysis Preview: Strengths Based Leadership by Tom Rath and Barry Conchie introduces listeners to the Gallup-designed survey that identifies a person's unique leadership strengths. Many leaders try to improve their skills by emulating other leaders, but in reality the most capable leaders are the ones who use their existing talents to provide what teams need. The best way to discover the ideal traits of good leaders is to ask followers what traits have characterized their most positive leaders. When asked, most mentioned the same factors as necessary for them to want to follow a leader. According to the survey, those factors are trust, compassion, stability, and hope. Different types of leaders have different ways of filling those needs. The 34 themes that the StrengthsFinder online test identifies range alphabetically from Achiever to Woo and can be grouped into four categories. Executing themes include Focus and Responsibility and revolve around a leader's ability... Please note: This is key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book.

    In Bob We Trust: Lessons Learned from Terrible Bosses , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 354min
    It's been said that a good leader brings out the best in people, while a great leader helps people become something greater than they'd ever imagined they could be. Bad leaders, on the other hand, are said to be nothing but trouble: mean, cruel, twisted, creatures that make the workplace a living hell for everyone. That may all be true (we think that it us) but that doesn’t mean that we can't learn something useful from our bad bosses.  In Bob We Trust is the third collection of annotated leadership columns from Keil Hubert, the American correspondent for London-based Business Reporter. This book includes fully-annotated versions of 13 wryly humourous (with a U) 'Evil Bob' leadership stories from Business Technology and Business Reporter Online, along with in-depth lessons-learned at the end of each column regarding how to recognize, mitigate, and escape your own bad boss. Finally, in order to keep it from being too darned depressing, Keil shares an inspirational story of a really great leader - one well worth emulating - in the original script he wrote for the last speech he gave to his troops at his military retirement ceremony. Yes, you can read all of the original columns Online, but the only place to listen to the supplementary content is here in this audiobook. That's got to be worth the cost of a pint, innit?

    The Age of Caesar: Five Roman Lives , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 702min
    Pompey, Caesar, Cicero, Brutus, Antony: the names resonate across thousands of years. Major figures in the civil wars that brutally ended the Roman republic, their lives still haunt us as examples of how the hunger for personal power can overwhelm collective politics, how the exaltation of the military can corrode civilian authority, and how the best intentions can lead to disastrous consequences. Plutarch renders these history-making lives as flesh-and-blood characters, often by deftly marshalling small details such as the care Brutus exercised in his use of money or the disdain Caesar felt for the lofty eloquence of Cicero. Plutarch was a Greek intellectual who lived roughly 100 years after the age of Caesar. At home in the world of Roman power, he preferred to live in the past, among the great figures of Greek and Roman history. He intended his biographical profiles to be mirrors of character that readers could use to inspire their own values and behavior - emulating virtues and rejecting flaws. For Plutarch, character was destiny for both the individual and the republic. He was our first master of the biographical form, a major source for Shakespeare and Gibbon. This edition features a new translation by Pamela Mensch that lends a brilliant clarity to Plutarch's prose. James Romm's notes guide listeners gracefully through the people, places, and events named in the profiles. And Romm's preface, along with Mary Beard's introduction, provide the perfect frame for understanding Plutarch and the momentous history he narrates. ungekürzt. Language: English.
