Story
Georg Friedrich Händel – Komponist genialer Barockopern und Oratorien in London. Georg Friedrich Händel, geboren am 23. Februar 1685 in Halle an der Saale, zählt zu den bedeutendsten Komponisten des Barock. Bereits früh zeigte sich sein musikalisches Talent, und obwohl sein Vater, ein Wundarzt und Hofchirurg, zunächst keine musikalische Karriere für seinen Sohn vorsah, setzte sich Händel – unterstützt von seiner Mutter – durch. Er erhielt Orgelunterricht bei Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow, der ihn in die Werke deutscher und italienischer Komponisten einführte.

Wladimir Iljitsch Uljanow (1870 - 1924) ist in Simbirsk, dem heutigen Uljanowsk geboren. Seine christliche Familie ist wohlhabend und niederen Adels. Seine Tätigkeit als Rechtsanwalt füllt ihn nicht aus. Ab 1900 gründet Lenin mit Revolutionären im Exil eine russischsprachige Zeitung "Iskra" (Funke), in der Uljanow fortan unter dem Decknamen "Lenin" seine Ideologie des späteren Leninismus verbreitet. 1902 publiziert er die Schrift "Was tun?".

Chr. begann eine Periode verschiedener Königreiche auf dem Gebiet des heutigen Frankreichs.Im Mittelalter etablierte sich das Frankenreich unter der Führung von Karl dem Großen. Nach seinem Tod wurde das Gebiet unter seinen Erben aufgeteilt.

Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Story
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
