Free Download Desi Delicacies: Food Writing from Muslim South Asia by Claire Chambers, Seetal Iyer, Audible Studios
English | June 07, 2023 | ISBN: B0BKCKJBM7 | 8 hours and 42 minutes | M4B 64 kbps | 237 Mb
A delectable anthology of food writing exploring the histories and cultures of Muslim South Asia. Contributors include Nadeem Aslam, Rana Safvi, Tabish Khair, Annie Zaidi, Sarvat Hasin, Tarana Husain Khan, Sadaf Hussain, Rosie Dastgir, and others.
The kitchen is often the heart of South Asian homes. Muslim South Asian kitchens, in particular, are the engines of an entire culture. The alchemy that takes place within them affects nations and economies, politics and history, and of course human relationships. There is proof of it in Desi Delicacies, Claire Chambers' anthology of essays, stories and recipes supplied by some of the region's most well-loved writers, historians and chefs.
An unexpected revelation awaits Nadeem Aslam in a London restaurant as he yearns for a special delicacy from Pakistan. Rana Safvi recounts the history of Awadhi cooking and the origins of qorma, while Sadaf Hussain tells us how the samosa came to be paired with chai and of his own newly found love for the beverage. Tabish Khair examines our attitudes towards food that is 'jootha'. Death comes with an aftertaste of taar roti for the protagonist of Tarana Husain Khan's story set in Rampur. Gulla puts his heart into making the perfect nadroo yakhni but is taken aback by a hairy surprise in Asiya Zahoor's 'The Hairy Curry'.

How did a once faceless bureaucrat, a man whose own wife said he was born under the sign of the vampire, become the idealized face of Russian manhood and its authoritarian leader? Deputy Mayor Putin examines the man behind the myth. We will explore how Putin's formative years shaped and drove him and how the supporting cast of characters he gathered along the way helped him get to the Kremlin's inner sanctum. We will trace Putin's many transformations and examine how each step brought him closer to the leader he is today: from scrawny street thug to the aggressive President Putin who invaded Ukraine in early 2022.

English | ASIN: B0D1DDD9DJ | 2024 | 4 hours and 55 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 274 MB
Author: Sami Sage, Emily Amick
Narrator: Nikki Massoud
A whip-smart combo of self-help and political manifesto that is perfect for anyone who wants to save our democracy but doesn't know where to start. In today's political climate, it's hard not to get discouraged. Isolated, doom scrolling, lacking a sense of purpose or community...it's easy to become overwhelmed by the dire state of American democracy and do nothing, because why try when the odds are never in our favor? At this fragile moment in history, Emily Amick, lawyer and former counsel to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, alongside New York Times bestselling author and Betches Media cofounder Sami Sage, want to reframe civic engagement as a form of self-care: an assertion of one's values and self-respect. This book is not just about voting, but about claiming your singular place in your country and community. Democracy in Retrograde will help you learn about much more than just political action. This book will provide a new lens through which to see yourself: a new and powerful light which bridges the personal and the political. In the words of Joan Baez, action is the antidote to despair, and with this helpful guide, even if Mercury is in retrograde, our democracy doesn't have to be.

Free Download Defcon 1 Direct Selling: Manual for Field Leaders by Randy Gage, Gildan Media
English | July 14, 2020 | ISBN: B08C1J9DYJ | 5 hours and 52 minutes | MP3 128 Kbps | 322 Mb
DEFCON is the US military acronym for "Defense Readiness Condition." DEFCON 1 is reserved only for imminent catastrophic events, like a nuclear war. Luckily, you don't have to fend off missile attacks in direct selling, but you will face some extremely difficult challenges and urgent crises leading your MLM team.
It takes much more than a positive attitude and motivational words to be a successful field leader. True leadership requires you to deal with messy, complicated scenarios when there is not always a clear-cut solution. Many of these challenges are caused by factors completely out of your control - from economic, regulatory, and political setbacks, to having top leaders quit, to companies going out of business, and a host of other issues.
It's at times like these, when it seems like your team is falling apart, that you must draw upon your resilience, persistence, and character to ride out the storm and lead your team through the chaos. This indispensable resource will enable you to: create a team culture of maximum readiness; deal with toxic leaders and effectively handle conflict resolution; use your leadership to make your team more powerful and build their self-esteem; handle corporate incompetence, poor decisions, and PR crises; and know what to do when you or a team leader leave a company.

Free Download Deep Water: The World in the Ocean (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CKWHXX2C | 2024 | 14 hours and 10 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 389 MB
Author: James Bradley
Narrator: Stephen James King
In this thrilling work-a blend of history, science, nature writing, and environmentalism-acclaimed writer James Bradley plunges into the unknown to explore the deepest recesses of the natural world. Seventy-one percent of the earth's surface is ocean. These waters created, shaped, and continue to sustain not just human life, but all life on Planet Earth, and perhaps beyond it. They serve as the stage for our cultural history-driving human development from evolution through exploration, colonialism, and the modern era of global leisure and trade. They are also the harbingers of the future-much of life on Earth cannot survive if sea levels are too low or too high, temperatures too cold or too warm. Our oceans are vast spaces of immense wonder and beauty, and our relationship to them is innate and awe inspired.
