    Life Is What You Make It: A story of love, hope and how determination can overcome even destiny , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 348min
    What would you do if destiny twisted the road you took? What if it threw you to a place you did not want to go? Would you fight, would you run or would you accept? Set across two cities in India in the early '80s, Life Is What You Make It is a gripping account of a few significant years of Ankita's life. Ankita Sharma has the world at her feet. She is young, good-looking and smart and has tonnes of friends and boys swooning over her. College life is what every youngster dreams of, and she also manages to get into a premier management school for her MBA. Six months later she is a patient in a mental health hospital. How did Ankita get here? What were the events that led to this? Will she ever get back her life again? Life has cruelly and coldly snatched that which meant the most to her, and she must now fight to get it all back. It is a deeply moving and inspiring account of growing up, the power of faith and how determination and an indomitable spirit can overcome even what destiny throws at you. A tale that is at its core a love story that makes us question our beliefs about ourselves and our concept of sanity and forces us to believe that life is truly what one makes it. ungekürzt.

    Manhunters
    For the first time, legendary DEA operatives Steve Murphy and Javier F. Peña tell the jaw-dropping true story of how Pablo Escobar, the world's most infamous narcoterrorist, was finally put out of business. The 1980s and '90s were defined by Pablo Escobar's transformation of Colombia into a war zone as his Medellin Cartel trafficked tonnes of cocaine into North America and Europe andmurdered anyone - competitors, police and civilians - who threatened his empire. With a private fortune stretching into billions, Escobar bought off politicians and became a hero to many by building infrastructure in poorer communities. Escobar was King. The only way to end his reign of terror as one of America's most wanted, was to send DEA agents Steve Murphy and Javier F Peña into the field to bring him down. Despite the $300,000 bounty placed on their heads, Steve and Javier were undeterred and worked relentlessly to isolate the drug lord from his resources and allies and send him on the run from enemies on both sides of the law.

    How to Give Up Plastic: A Guide to Changing the World, One Plastic Bottle at a Time. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 236min
    Penguin presents the audiobook edition of How to Give Up Plastic by Will McCallum, read by Joe Sutherland.  'We have a responsibility, every one of us.' (David Attenborough) Around 12.7 million tonnes of plastic are entering the ocean every year, killing over 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals. By 2050 there could be more plastic in the ocean than fish by weight. Plastic pollution is the environmental scourge of our age, but how can you make a difference?  This accessible guide, written by the campaigner at the forefront of the antiplastic movement, will help you make the small changes that make a big difference, from buying a reusable coffee cup to running a cleanup at your local park or beach. Tips on giving up plastic include: Washing your clothes within a wash bag to catch plastic microfibers (the cause of 30 percent of plastic pollution in the ocean). Replacing your regular shampoo with bar shampoo. How to lobby your supermarket to remove unnecessary packaging. How to throw a plastic-free birthday party. How to convince others to join you in giving up plastic. Plastic is not going away without a fight. We need a movement made up of billions of individual acts, bringing people together from all backgrounds and all cultures, the ripples of which will be felt from the smallest village to the tallest skyscrapers. This is a call to arms - to join forces across the world and to end our dependence on plastic.  #BreakFreeFromPlastic ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Sutherland.

    Ivory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 933min
    Simultaneous release of the eagerly awaited latest title from best-selling thriller writer, set in Mozambique and South Africa. Guaranteed to appeal to fans of Wilbur Smith and Beverley Harper. Alex Tremain is a pirate in trouble. The two women in his life - one of them his financial adviser, the other his diesel mechanic - have left him. He's facing a mounting tide of debts and his crew of modern-day buccaneers, a multi-national band of ex-military cut-throats, is getting restless. They don't all share his dream of going legit, but what Alex really wants is to re-open the five-star resort hotel which once belonged to his Portuguese mother and English father on the Island of Dreams, off the coast of Mozambique. A chance raid on a wildlife smuggling ship sets the Chinese triads after him and, to add to his woes, corporate lawyer Jane Humphries lands, literally, in his lap. Another woman is the last thing Captain Tremain needs right now - especially one whose lover is a ruthless shipping magnate backed up by a deadly bunch of contract killers. Meanwhile Jane finds herself torn between the crooked but charming pirate and her coolly calculating millionaire boss, George Penfold. Both are passionate, and both are dangerous. What Alex really needs is one last big heist - something valuable enough to fulfil his dreams and set him and his men up for life. When the South African government makes a controversial decision to reinstitute the culling of elephants in its national parks, Alex finds the answer to his dilemma - three tonnes of ivory. ungekürzt.

    Réhabilitation du cacao au Ghana
    Le cacao est la culture commerciale la plus importante du Ghana. Parmi tous les produits agricoles, c'est celui qui rapporte le plus de devises étrangères au pays. Ce livre se concentre sur l'industrie cacaoyère du Ghana du point de vue de la science, de la technologie et de l'innovation (STI). La plupart des discussions sur l'industrie du cacao se sont concentrées sur l'économie et les dynamiques sociopolitiques qui ont façonné l'industrie jusqu'à son état actuel. Cependant, l'analyse des apports scientifiques et technologiques dans le soutien de l'industrie cacaoyère est très importante. Au cours des 20 dernières années, les gouvernements successifs ont mis en oeuvre un certain nombre d'interventions qui ont conduit à une augmentation significative de la production de cacao. Le gouvernement vise toujours à atteindre un million de tonnes d'ici 2020. La clé pour améliorer le taux de réussite est de renforcer la base STI de la formulation et de la mise en oeuvre de la politique et d'assurer une meilleure participation des parties prenantes, en particulier des agriculteurs. Ce livre intéressera les universitaires et les étudiants de diverses disciplines, les agents de développement et les lecteurs en général, en particulier ceux de l'industrie du cacao et des autres pays producteurs de cacao.

    DIY Egg Farming: Easy & Comprehensive Guide to Raising Chickens for Eggs , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 61min
    Poultry farming has been in practice for over 150 million years. The origin of poultry farming can be traced to South East Asia. Charles Darwins believed that present-day hens came from the “Gallus Bankiva”, which originated in a broad area of Asia extending from India to the Philippines. Now, birds such as geese, ducks, pigeons, turkey, guinea fowl, and chickens are included under the general term poultry.Poultry are a great source of food and fiber to humans. These foods come in the form of meat and eggs. Fiber comes in the form of feathers. You see, there’s an increase in the number of people participating in poultry fairs. Many people love them as pets or raise them for egg production. The thing is, there’s a large commercial chicken industry that provides us with lots of meat and eggs.According to a 2017 publication by Antonio Gilberto Bertechini, over 67 million metric tonnes of eggs were produced globally in 2013. Roughly 6.9 billion hens took charge of egg production. The combined efforts of these hens resulted in the production of 1250 billion eggs for a global population of 7.137 billion people which calculates to almost one hen per person. In 1991, the American hens produced over 5.7 billion dozen eggs.The poultry industry comprises of turkey and broilers. About 6.1 billion broilers were produced in the United States in 1991. This represents roughly 19.7 billion pounds of ready-to-cook broiler meat. The fact is, the poultry industry is a very big business.It all begins with poultry breeding. Selected males and females of special breeds are mated and the eggs are harvested and incubated. Usually, they’re incubated for 21 days. The chicks are then brooded in rooms whose temperatures are strictly controlled. Upon maturing, the birds are sent off as roasters or broilers for consumption as meat or further grown as breeders or laying hens.In the United States, poultry farming is supervised by the Food and Drug Administratio ungekürzt.

    Betrayed (eBook, ePUB)
    The relentlessly fascinating, sometimes hilarious and often jaw-dropping true story of two American women who became unwitting drug mules by driving a hashish-laden campervan from Stuttgart to Bombay, then later to Australia, where they were arrested and jailed.Think of the two most unlikely drug dealers you can imagine and you'll probably come up with the Drug Grannies: Vera Hays and Florice Bessire, who were 59 and 61 respectively in 1977 when Vera's nephew, Vern Todd, persuaded them to drive a campervan from Germany to India, then on to Australia.Little did the women know that Vern and his accomplices had packed two tonnes of hashish into the campervan in what was a creative but ultimately destined-to-fail drug trafficking attempt that would go down in Australian history.Betrayed is the shocking, real-life inside story of 'Toddie' and 'Beezie' - as they were known - drawn from journalist Sandi Logan's experience reporting on the ground at the time, combined with intensive research, including access to the women's own diaries. It chronicles their wild ride across continents and oceans to our shores, where they were busted by Australian Federal Narcotics Bureau agents, arrested and jailed, including what came after.Were the Grannies none the wiser to the highly lucrative - and highly illegal - cargo they transported here, as they claimed? Were they set up and betrayed by Vera's nephew? Or could they have been the unlikely masterminds behind the entire plot?Now, 45 years after they set out on their ill-fated journey, it's time to tell their story.
