  My Father, the Self-Made Avatar , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 231min

  The Ultimate Game Machine is a gargantuan neural processor with nodes in 500 cities around the world. It has access to everything on the internet and everything on any computer connected to the internet. The UGM, usually called the Ugly Machine, was built by Rick Koenig and Gus Byrne to create and play games. It has no other capability. It has no access to the outside world. Everything it gathers from the internet is nothing but extraneous data that it uses to create the games.In this first book in the series, Rick learns that a wisecracking avatar of his father has evolved from the machine. It is a fast-paced action thriller as Rick, with his avatar father and Maria, the beautiful Homeland Security Agent, track down Rick's estranged 10-year-old daughter and rescue her from the Mexican drug cartels.In part two, we meet a baseball player from Granbury, Texas, whose daughter has been murdered. This leads us to a chase for the killer and to outer space. Both of these are pause-resisters you will not want to stop listening to. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Larry Bahr.

  Medieval Feudalism , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 151min

  Medieval feudalism is one of those subjects that most of us are familiar with, and yet have difficulty describing. Was is a political, military, economic, or social system? And how did it develop? All these questions are answered in this superb book. Carl Stephenson has done a magnificent job of paring away all extraneous subjects and focusing on just the key elements. This short book, a masterpiece of brevity, succinctly sums up medieval feudalism better than anything ever written. Medieval feudalism was essentially a means of paying retainers in land, rather than money. With the collapse of the Roman Empire and the disappearance of coinage, the only medium of exchange left was land and its produce. Thus, the barbarian German rulers of France sought some means of retaining able-bodied soldiery and companions at court. What evolved was a process of infeudiation - essentially an exchange of land for military service. The entire concept of vassalage, liege lord, and knighthood came about in France in the early Middle Ages, though many of its more advanced forms did not evolve until much later. This is an important book for any history buff who has the least interest in the Middle Ages. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlton Griffin.

  Practicing Presence: A Guide for the Spiritual Teacher and Health Practitioner, Hörbuch, Digital, 415min

  What is the most essential trait for an effective healer or teacher? Intelligence, skill, and compassion are important, explains Eckhart Tolle, but without presence, our work in service of others falls short of its potential. Practicing Presence is a retreat for health practitioners, educators, spiritual teachers—or anyone who shares wisdom—offering more than seven hours of Eckhart’s practical advice for those fostering transformation in others. Covering a wide range of challenges and concerns specific to the helping professions, Eckhart discusses: Rooting one’s work in stillness to become “a teacher of presence.” Finding the balance between structure and formlessness in your teaching or healing modality. The question of readiness for the would-be teacher or healer. Financial considerations and the inherent egoic risks of charging money for services. “To be there as nobody special—simply as a field of awareness—that’s the essence of being a successful healer or teacher,” explains Eckhart. For anyone working to support the well-being of others, Practicing Presence brings you an empowering series of pointers and guidelines for lasting transformation and healing. Please note that due to the environment in which these talks were recorded, the listener may notice some extraneous noise or hiss. This should not significantly affect the overall delivery of Eckhart's teaching. Language: English. Narrator: Eckhart Tolle.

  Chaos Zone (Parse Galaxy, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

  Space travel is so overrated. Bounty hunting isn't any better, but it's what Sloane Tarnish needs to do if she wants to fix the rundown spaceship her uncle dumped on her. So she can find him and dump it right back. Problem A: Her uncle also ditched his motley crew-made up of a cranky ace pilot and an extraneous mad scientist-and they don't exactly see her as the captain. Problem B: Her ship's too broken to leave the most dangerous system in the galaxy, where a recent power vacuum is turning the place into one orbiting cluster of fugitives, thugs, and swindlers. When Sloane sets her sights on a bounty with a reward that will solve all her problems, the Commander of the Galactic Fleet himself shows up in pursuit of the same man. The last thing Sloane needs is to get tangled in a web of galactic politics-but she won't let her prize go, either. The payoff is just too big to give up. But as dangers close in on all sides, she can't help wondering if she'll live to claim her prize… Chaos Zone is the first installment in a new space opera series full of reckless women, messy worlds, and big adventures-perfect for fans of Guardians of the Galaxy and the Mandalorian.

  The House on Haight Street: A Timeline 10/27/62 Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 155min

  The House on Haight Street is a novella featuring Miranda Sullivan and Joe Calleja, culled from material originally included in the body of Warsaw Concerto (Book 13 of the Timeline 10/27/62 series). It did not make the "final cut" for two reasons: Firstly, I thought it was one sub-strand too many and therefore interrupted the flow of the rest of the narrative; and secondly, the book was getting very long even by my standards! Normally, such "exclusions" would never see the light of day. Having lopped a good 30- to 40,000 words out of Warsaw Concerto, I discovered that within the supposedly extraneous or distracting material I had removed, there was the bones of a story capable of standing on its own feet.  Moreover, it was a story that serendipitously reintroduced two characters who will be important players in forthcoming instalments of the Timeline 10/27/62 saga, brought their stories up to date, and passed the test of adding another layer of context to the events playing out in both Warsaw Concerto (Book 13) and Eight Miles High (Book 14).I hope that you, my fans will allow me this indulgence. Mostly, I just hope you enjoy the novella. In either event, I am sure you will let me know what you think of The House on Haight Street! It is the first of a series of Timeline 10/27/62 stories that will appear in between the release of forthcoming Main Series books.  ungekürzt.

  The Great Animal Orchestra: Finding the Origins of Music in the World's Wild Places , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 564min

  Musician and naturalist Bernie Krause is one of the world's leading experts in natural sound, and he's spent his life discovering and recording nature's rich chorus. Searching far beyond our modern world's honking horns and buzzing machinery, he has sought out the truly wild places that remain, where natural soundscapes exist virtually unchanged from when the earliest humans first inhabited the earth. Krause shares fascinating insight into how deeply animals rely on their aural habitat to survive and the damaging effects of extraneous noise on the delicate balance between predator and prey. But natural soundscapes aren't vital only to the animal kingdom; Krause explores how the myriad voices and rhythms of the natural world formed a basis from which our own musical expression emerged. From snapping shrimp, popping viruses, and the songs of humpback whales-whose voices, if unimpeded, could circle the earth in hours-to cracking glaciers, bubbling streams, and the roar of intense storms; from melody-singing birds to the organlike drone of wind blowing over reeds, the sounds Krause has experienced and describes are like no others. And from recording jaguars at night in the Amazon rain forest to encountering mountain gorillas in Africa's Virunga Mountains, Krause offers an intense and intensely personal narrative of the planet's deep and connected natural sounds and rhythm. The Great Animal Orchestra is the story of one man's pursuit of natural music in its purest form, and an impassioned case for the conservation of one of our most overlooked natural resources - the music of the wild. ungekürzt.

  Freedom from the World: Bridging the Dimensions of Form and Formlessness, Hörbuch, Digital, 781min

  Once there was a student who asked the master, "How can I become free of the world?" The reply: "Love the world and everything in it." How do we handle this paradox? By allowing and accepting what is. This is the simple yet life-changing teaching Eckhart Tolle shares in Freedom from the World, a retreat with the best-selling author of The Power of Now. Many people who have made it in the eyes of the world will be the first to tell you they're actually miserable, begins Eckhart. This is because our worldly possessions and accomplishments will bring only short-term fulfillment if our lives are not rooted in the unified, unmanifested source of life itself, or what Eckhart often calls "the formless dimension". Join Eckhart for a nine-session exploration of how we each can become "a master of life" and an agent of transformation as we learn to be and act simultaneously in the material realm and the formless dimension. Topics include: Breaking the cycle of reincarnating thoughts Sense perceptions, the inner body, and on-the-spot inquiries that serve as "portals to presence" Simple practices to deepen your daily interactions with others "You are a blessing on the planet when you are in touch with the spacious, formless dimension within yourself," explains Eckhart. Freedom from the World brings you his empowering teachings for bridging the dimensions of form and formlessness and living with renewed joy and peace and a sense of a meaningful purpose. Please note: Due to the environment in which these talks were recorded, the listener may notice some extraneous noise or hiss. This should not significantly affect the overall delivery of Eckhart's teaching. Language: English. Narrator: Eckhart Tolle.
