Common Yellowthroat and Other...

Greg Cetus

The Common Yellowthroat is a small warbler of the migratory species with an extensive range, occurring throughout North America and Central America down to northern South America. The male has distinctive yellow underparts, with a black mask above the eyes and throat, while the female has a plainer greenish-olive back and yellowish underparts. The Common Yellowthroat often perches atop a tall stalk to rap out his distinctive song, wichity-wichity-wichity. This binaural audio recording features the Common Yellowthroat birdsong recorded in its natural habitat in Iowa’s Yellow River State Forest near a delicate babbling river stream together with other birds, insects, and ground creatures. Other birdsongs include: Blue Jay, Song Sparrow, Wood Thrush, Red-bellied Woodpecker, White-breasted Nuthatch with Northern Cardinal and Mourning Dove in background.

Leaders Make the Future Third...

Bob Johansen, Jeremy Kirshbaum,...

Over the next decade, all leaders will be augmented with some form of generative artificial intelligence, or GenAI. For the best leaders, this will mean dramatic improvement. For mediocre leaders, this will mean persistent confusion, distraction, and pretense. With futureback thinking—looking ten years ahead, then planning backward from future to next to now—this third edition of Leaders Make the Future shows how people can improve their leadership skills while expanding their human perspective. 
 
 
 
Now 75 percent revised and expanded with resources from the Institute for the Future, this new edition is organized around ten future leadership skills: augmented futureback curiosity, augmented clarity, augmented dilemma flipping, augmented bio-engaging, augmented immersive learning, augmented depolarizing, augmented commons creating, augmented smart mob swarming, augmented strength with humility, and human calming. 
 
 
 
AI-augmented leadership will be key for any organization to tackle the uncertainty of the future. And by incorporating practical methodologies, ethical guidelines, and innovative leadership practices, this book will help leaders develop their clarity and moderate their certainty.

Quantum Physics Made Simple -...

Maynard Marrow

Quantum physics sounds brilliant—until someone actually tries to explain it.
Suddenly you’re drowning in equations, paradoxes, or New Age promises. You’re told particles can be in two places at once… that time isn’t real… that light behaves like a wave and a particle… but no one seems to explain how or why in a way that actually makes sense.
So you nod, smile, and move on—still confused.
This audiobook fixes that.
You’ll understand what superposition really is. What tunneling actually means. How Einstein proved light could knock out electrons. Why your thoughts might influence physical matter. And how quantum theory is powering the next generation of computers and technologies.
Here’s what you’ll take away:Why Max Planck’s idea shattered physics—and created an entirely new oneWhat the birth of the universe has to do with particle uncertaintyHow particles tunnel through walls (yes, seriously)Why black body radiation melted 19th-century science—and changed everythingWhat light really is, and why it behaves so weirdlyHow Einstein explained the photoelectric effect—and kicked off the tech ageWhy quantum physics and the Law of Attraction might have more in common than you thinkHow time works in quantum theory (hint: not how you expect)Why one particle can be in two places at once—and what that means for your computerWhat quantum computing is, and how it’s already rewriting the rules
If you’ve ever wished someone would finally explain quantum physics like a real person would, here it is.Start listening and see just how simple this “impossible” science can be.
