Deadly Departure

Christine Negroni

The in-flight explosion of TWA Flight 800 on July 17, 1996, was one of the deadliest air disasters in American history, triggering one of longest and most confounding investigations. Even today, many people still believe there was a government conspiracy to hide the real cause of the crash. If anyone was covering up the truth about the blast that brought down the jumbo jet as it departed New York for Paris, it was Boeing. For years, the company kept from investigators, vital information about a dangerous design flaw at the heart of the airplane. It took intrepid investigators years to understand how a tiny spark in a massive fuel tank could lead to the deaths of 230 people. This insight into Boeing is significant given several accidents on new model Boeing airliners that would follow in the decades to come. Written by television correspondent and air safety specialist, Christine Negroni, Deadly Departure reveals the chaos behind the massive crash investigation exacerbated by political feuding among various government agencies. Deadly Departure reveals the surprising motivations of those promoting the theory that the true cause of the crash has been covered up. Readers learn about the victims and their families, the rescue and crisis workers, the investigators and scientists, the grifters and imposters. It is an impeccably researched, and provocative story of one of the great disasters of our time.

Of Ice and Men - How We've Used...

Fred Hogge

An exploration of humanity’s relationship with ice since the dawn of civilization, Of Ice and Men reminds us that only by understanding this unique substance can we save the ice on our planet—and perhaps ourselves. 
 
Ice tells a story. It writes it in rock. It lays it down, snowfall by snowfall at the ends of the earth where we may read it like the rings on a tree. It tells our planet’s geological and climatological tale. 
 
Ice tells another story too: a story about us. It is a tale packed with swash-buckling adventure and improbable invention, peopled with driven, eccentric, often brilliant characters. It tells how our species has used ice to reshape the world according to our needs and our desires: how we have survived it, harvested it, traded it, bent science to our will to make it—and how in doing so we have created globe-spanning infrastructures that are entirely dependent upon it. 
 
And even after we have done all that, we take ice so much for granted that we barely notice it. 
 
Ice has supercharged the modern world. It has allowed us to feed ourselves and cure ourselves in ways unimaginable two hundred years ago. It has enabled the global population to rise from less than 1 billion to nearly 7½ billion—which just happens to cover the same period of time as humanity has harvested, manufactured, and distributed ice on an industrial scale. 
 
And yet the roots of our fascination with ice and its properties run much deeper than the recent past.

Sleep Sounds 1 Fall Asleep...

Walkercrest

Welcome to a night of Deep Refreshing Sleep. 
The Audiobook gives you a bundle of two 12 hour programs. 
The programs begin after a short narration of guided imagery to prepare you for sleep. 
Program One: 12 hours of the sounds of Calming Rain, Distant Thunder and the Gentle Tones of Classical Music. 
Program Two: 10 hours of just the sounds of Calming Rain and Distant Thunder without the classical music. 
The classical musical tones are serene arrangements of the most-loved, composers: Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Mozart, Pachelbel, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky and more. 
The producer of the audiobook is an award-winning sound designer and composer. When he and his wife struggled with sleep apnea, he searched for an audio program that would help. "I mostly found cheap sound effects with repetitive, looping tones. Granted, my background makes me a little picky, but I found these programs more annoying than relaxing." 
So he set out to record the best sounds he could find. The ocean waves, rain, thunder, streams and waterfalls are all original recordings. 
Next, he experimented with tones. This program is the first to include mellow arrangements of beautiful classical music. "I have produced over twenty experimental programs now and have had sleep doctors, patients, as well as my own friends and family members try them on. This current series of "Sleep Sounds" has been very well received and has been proven to be the most effective by the largest number of people."
