Landing a Great Dental Hygiene Job , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 50min
Landing a Great Dental Hygiene Job was written to help new and experienced dental hygienists navigate the difficult road of finding a great job. The dental hygiene job outlook is still quite positive for hygienists, but it isn't what it used to be where professionals were in much higher demand. The expansion of schools (75% increase in schools) since 1995 and the flat growth in dental schools, coupled with recessions and other economic woes has left many good hygienists either unemployed or under-employed. The strategies and tips in this book have been proven to work. In 2010, my wife graduated in dental hygiene and was excited to start working only to find out the job market was much more difficult than she anticipated. After a week of dropping off resumes and waiting by the phone for calls (even calls to work as a temp), it became painfully obvious a new strategy was in order. As a marketing professional, I worked with her to develop some strategies that we felt had a chance of working. It turns out they were right on the mark. This book details them out for you, sharing what works and even a little bit of what doesn't. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karle Yanocha.

And the Weak Suffer What They Must?: Europe, Austerity and the Threat to Global Stability , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 620min
In 2008, the universe of Western finance outgrew planet Earth. When Wall Street imploded, a death embrace between insolvent banks and bankrupt states consumed Europe. Half a dozen national economies imploded, and several more came close. But the storm is far from over.... From the aftermath of the Second World War to the present, Varoufakis recounts how the eurozone emerged not as a route to shared prosperity but as a pyramid scheme of debt with countries such as Greece, Ireland, Portugal and Spain at its bottom. Its woeful design ensured that collapse would be inevitable and catastrophic. But since the hurricane landed, Europe's leaders have chosen a cocktail of more debt and harsh austerity rather than reform, ensuring that the weakest citizens of the weakest nations pay the price for the bankers' mistakes while doing nothing to prevent the next collapse. Instead, the principle of the greatest austerity for those suffering the greatest recessions has led to a resurgence of racist extremism. Once more Europe is a potent threat to global stability. Drawing on the personal experience of his own negotiations with the eurozone's financiers and offering concrete policies and alternatives, Varoufakis shows how we concocted this mess and how we can get out of it. And the Weak Suffer What They Must? reminds us of our history in order to save European capitalism from itself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Leighton Pugh, Yanis Varoufakis.

The Shark and the Goldfish: Positive Ways to Thrive During Waves of Change , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 38min
Now more than ever, fear and uncertainty are becoming staples of daily life. During changing times, it's easy to worry, give up, and let fear paralyze you. However, you have more control than you think you do, and how you handle adversity is your choice - the only choice that matters. Many successful people and businesses have grown to prominence during even the worst recessions and downturns. These successful people and organizations all shared similar characteristics and took similar actions to thrive while others merely tried to survive. You can do the same. In The Shark and the Goldfish-, best-selling author Jon Gordon shares an inspiring fable about a goldfish who has always been fed, a nice shark who teaches him to find food, and a wave of change that brings them together. In the process of finding food the shark teaches the goldfish the ultimate lesson - that the difference between a full belly and an empty stomach depends solely on your faith, beliefs, and actions. In the face of adversity, this is a simple fable that reinforces a proven truth - you can't control the events in your life. But you can control how you respond to them. You can allow the waves of change to crush you, or you can learn to ride them to a successful future. Packed with tips and strategies for thriving during tough times, The Shark and the Goldfish will have a lifelong impact. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jon Gordon.

Contra Krugman: Smashing the Errors of America's Most Famous Keynesian , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 951min
With a foreword by Ron Paul If you believe in the unhampered free market, The New York Times columnist Paul Krugman thinks you're an idiot. This book is a relentless assault on the ideas of Krugman and on the Keynesian economics that would have the government direct the economy in order to maximize prosperity and prevent recessions. In fact, the more they try to manage the economy the worse they make it - as during the housing bubble years when the Fed and the federal government colluded to gin up the housing market in order to keep the economy robust after 9/11. Oops. Unfortunately for Krugman and his followers, Krugman is able to declare victory for Keynesianism only by citing highly selective data, by ignoring or misrepresenting his own predictions, or by misstating the views of his opponents. Krugman even claims to have predicted the housing bubble - after having called for the very policies that created it. Economist Robert Murphy (PhD, NYU) has an uncanny ability to recall Krugman's columns and interviews and puts his command of this material to devastating use in this book. As Murphy shows, in no way can it be said that Keynesian analysis has won the day. To the contrary, the Austrian School - which has been critical of government intervention, particularly central banking - has been vindicated in episode after episode. Topics include: The Great Depression Obamacare Krugman's predictions Monetary policy Climate change Financial "reform" Employment and wages The minimum wage Business cycles Stimulus Listen to this book, and never lose a debate again. ungekürzt.

Hitching for Hope: A Journey into the Heart and Soul of Ireland , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 363min
A journey through Ireland by thumb - ears open to the stories, dreams, and struggles of the people encountered along the wayIn the wake of one of Ireland’s worst economic recessions and a period of personal burnout from years of relentless social campaigning and organizing, Ruairí McKiernan set out to answer these questions after he was invited to speak about citizens’ views of Ireland. How, he wondered, might he use this platform to capture people’s stories in an honest and authentic way - to give voice to the multitudes that so often go unheard?By turns exciting, provocative, and sincere, Hitching for Hope: A Journey into the Heart and Soul of Ireland is the tale of a pilgrimage both deeply personal and explicitly political. McKiernan embarks without an itinerary, not knowing with whom he may speak, what he may hear, or where he may sleep each night. As he reflects on his past, faces his fears, and listens to the struggles, hopes, and dreams of Ireland’s people, he excavates a human resilience often obscured by the media.Our modern world is rife with twists and turns as numerous and daunting as the roads that wind across the Irish countryside. However, when we will ourselves to take a leap, to stick out our thumbs when the going gets tough, and to lend a hand (or a lift) to others in need, we harness a collective power that cannot be shaken.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

Calming the Storm Within: How to Find Peace in This Chaotic World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 411min
One of the few constants in life is change. Our lives are so unpredictable. Jobs are lost. Health falters. Loved ones pass away. Relationships get rocky. Stress comes like a tidal wave. Being a follower of Jesus doesn’t necessarily make it easier. In fact, He told us we’d have trouble in this life: "In this world you will have trouble"...that means all of us. Guaranteed. While Jesus didn’t leave us without hope, trouble often brings with it a lack of peace. We become prisoners to worry, anxiety and fear. Thankfully, Jesus didn’t stop there. We can be free. After making this prediction of trouble in our lives, Jesus was also quick to remind us that He is bigger than any of our troubles: "But take heart! I have overcome the world." Jesus not only came to provide a way to heaven - He came to give us life to the full. That means inner peace in recessions. Serenity in the midst of relationship struggles. Calm regardless of circumstances. This isn’t just any kind of peace…it is the peace which transcends all understanding, a level of peace that we cannot imagine. And God has made this readily available. So take hold of this peace. It’s meant for you. This audiobook walks the listener through a process to discovering peace in the midst of the chaos which abounds in your life. Because it is rooted in Scripture, if you follow the principles outlined here you will find true, lasting peace regardless of the circumstances in your life. ungekürzt. Language: English.
