  “A passionate and heartfelt call to care.”—Bruce Feiler, New York Times bestselling author of Walking the Bible and America’s Prophet 
   In You Are Here, Thomas Kostigen, the New York Times bestselling co-author of The Green Book, takes us to the most extreme environmental areas on the planet to show how what we do from the comfort of our own home affects people, places, and things everywhere. A timely, much-needed alarm that recalls Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth combined with a compelling travel narrative reminiscent of Anthony Bourdain with straight ahead Anderson Cooper-like reporting, You Are Here is “an intriguing and insightful account that deserves to be read by everyone” (Mark Plotkin, Time Magazine Hero for the Planet).

  There’s also good evidence that listening to nature audio can reduce stress and help your body shift into a calmer state. Bird sounds work especially well because they have just enough variety to keep your mind engaged without pulling you away from what you’re doing. 
  No talking. No music. Only real nature, professionally recorded and edited.

  The Apollo 12 moon mission was the second manned mission to the lunar surface, but what made it unique was that all three astronauts on this particular mission were already good friends and navy buddies well before they became astronauts.  This audiobook provides the previously untold story of this mission by those who were actually there in that era, and contains the uncensored, unedited, unfiltered, and previously unreleased interviews with all three of these Apollo 12 astronauts – Commander Charles “Pete” Conrad, Lunar Module Pilot Alan Bean, and Command Module Pilot Richard “Dick” Gordon.  In addition, the interviews with many of the NASA officials of that Apollo-era, are also presented here.  All of these historical figures bring to the public their invaluable and collective recollections of this historic mission in their own words of those kinder gentler days at the pinnacle of America's technological superiority.   The introduction and epilogue was provided by Al Reinert, the Apollo historian and Oscar-nominated documentarian “For All Mankind”, as well the co-screenwriter for the Tom Hanks blockbuster “Apollo 13”.

  Racoons are not the only bandits wearing masks in the wilderness. Growing up, author Kennie Prince spent most of his time in the woods and creeks near his home in Rankin County, Mississippi. A highly skilled outdoorsman, Prince began his career with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife Conservation in 1983 and dedicated his life to protecting Mississippi's fish and wildlife resources in dangerous undercover work. The Poacher's Nightmare: Stories of an Undercover Game Warden contains dozens of hair-raising accounts of covert wildlife operations, often spanning years, requiring ingenious planning, complicated secrecy, and deft coordination. 
   
   
   
  Prince infiltrated bloody-minded, wary criminal groups, winning their trust. When his traps were fully set, he involved other state and federal law enforcement officials to bring an abrupt halt to abominable thefts of vast fish and wildlife resources from the public trust. Smart, creative, knowledgeable, tenacious, disciplined, passionate, and a natural-born actor, Prince bore a unique skill set that made him an ideal fit for this perilous undertaking. This memoir details how Prince gained the confidence of tightly knit circles of loyal, leery poachers and put an end to their destructive evil.

  The Physics of Sound -...

  Sound waves are a fundamental aspect of physics, representing mechanical vibrations that travel through a medium. Unlike electromagnetic waves, which can propagate through the vacuum of space, sound waves require a material medium such as air, water, or solid substances. These waves are generated when an object vibrates, causing nearby particles in the medium to oscillate. As these particles move back and forth, they transfer energy to adjacent particles, creating a propagating wave of compression and rarefaction. This process continues outward from the source, allowing sound to travel over distances. 
  The two primary types of waves in physics are transverse and longitudinal waves. Sound waves fall into the category of longitudinal waves, meaning that the oscillations of the particles occur parallel to the direction of wave propagation. In contrast, transverse waves, such as water waves and electromagnetic waves, involve oscillations perpendicular to their direction of movement. In a sound wave, regions of compression correspond to areas where particles are densely packed together, while regions of rarefaction represent areas where the particles are spread apart. This alternating pattern of compression and rarefaction allows the wave to carry energy without transporting matter itself.
