The History of ForexWhen foreign trade began, it was not an international trade market. This follows from the Bretton Woods agreement of 1944, which stated that foreign currencies would be fixed against the dollar, which was valued at $35 per ounce of gold. This precedent was first put into practice in 1967, when a Chicago bank refused to finance a loan to a professor in pounds sterling. Of course, their intention was to sell the currency, which they felt was too high against the dollar, and then buy it back when the value had dropped, making a quick profit.After 1971, when the dollar was no longer convertible into gold and the domestic market was stronger, the Bretton Woods agreement was abandoned, and the currency conversion process became more variable. This allowed for greater support in foreign markets, and the United States and Europe began a strong trading relationship. In the 1980's, market timing and usage was expanded through the use of computers and technology to include Asian time zones as well. At that time, foreign exchange amounted to about $70 billion a day. Today, some 20 years later, the level of trading has skyrocketed, with the equivalent of about $1.5 trillion a day.Originally, trading across international lines was more difficult, with several different currencies involved across Europe. Although the major players in the European market were deeply involved and were veterans of international trade by the time other markets joined in, there were more currencies to track - the franc, the pound, the lira and many more - than was reasonable. With the birth of the European Union in 1992, the foundations were laid for a single currency that would be used in most of Europe, and the euro was finally established and put into circulation in 1999.Learn Forex today and change your life! ungekürzt.

The Science of Obesity: Understanding the Calorie Myth, Fats & Dietary Balances , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 99min

Obesity has become one of the greatest health scourges of the 21st century. Studies have shown that it contributes to more than three million deaths. You’d be surprised to learn that more than a billion adults are either overweight or obese in today’s world. What’s more? Developing countries have been hard hit by the epidemic, and these are countries that are still battling with malnutrition and starvation. As researchers strive to understand better the economic and social impact of obesity, many questions remain unanswered; questions such as, “Why obesity rates have skyrocketed in the past 30 years?” and “How to reverse this worrying trend?”You see, obesity becomes a risk when it is accompanied by other health conditions such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, depression, and high blood sugar. The thing is, most people switch to crash diets once they realize that they are obese, or close to the obese stage. The right thing to do in this situation would be to pay your doctor a visit. Yes! And if your doctor finds out that you have no issues other than elevated weight, he or she will advise you to focus on a healthy diet and also increase your level of physical activity. The bitter truth is that in these cases, weight loss is not important. I agree that there are many books on obesity, weight loss, and dieting. But this is not just another book. It is a book on understanding obesity. I want you to get a firm grasp of what this stuff is all about, so here’s what you will find inside:The history and genetics of obesityThe myth about caloriesThe science and sociology of obesity The best way to tackle obesityDietary balances & binge eatingSo, follow me, as we embark on a long but interesting journey, one that will help us to understand the concept of obesity! ungekürzt.

It's Your Ship: Management Techniques from the Best Damn Ship in the Navy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 384min

The story of Captain D. Michael Abrashoff and his command of USS Benfold has become legendary inside and outside the Navy. Now Abrashoff offers this fascinating tale of top-down change for anyone trying to navigate today's uncertain business seas. When Captain Abrashoff took over as commander of the Benfold, a ship armed with every cutting-edge system available, it was like a business that had all the latest technology but only some of the productivity. Knowing that responsibility for improving performance rested with him, he realized he had to improve his own leadership skills before he could improve his ship. Within months he created a crew of confident and inspired problem-solvers eager to take the initiative and take responsibility for their actions. The slogan on board became "It's your ship," and Benfold was soon recognized far and wide as a model of naval efficiency. How did Abrashoff do it? Against the backdrop of today's United States Navy - Benfold was a key player in our Persian Gulf fleet - Abrashoff shares his secrets of successful management including: See the ship through the eyes of the crew: By soliciting a sailor's suggestions, Abrashoff drastically reduced tedious chores that provided little additional value. Communicate, communicate, communicate: The more Abrashoff communicated the plan, the better the crew's performance. His crew would eventually call him "Megaphone Mike", since they heard from him so often. Create discipline by focusing on purpose: Discipline skyrocketed when Abrashoff's crew believed that what they were doing was important. Listen aggressively: After learning that many sailors wanted to use the GI Bill, Abrashoff brought a test official aboard the ship-and held the SATs forty miles off the Iraqi coast. From achieving amazing cost savings to winning the highest gunnery score in the Pacific Fleet, Captain Abrashoff's extraordinar ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: D. Michael Abrashoff.

Beneath the Mountain: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 801min

In Luca D'Andrea's atmospheric and brilliant thriller, set in a small mountain community in the majestic Italian Dolomites, an outsider must uncover the truth about a triple murder that has gone unsolved for 30 years. New York City native Jeremiah Salinger is one half of a hot-shot documentary-making team. He and his partner, Mike, made a reality show about roadies that skyrocketed them to fame. But now Salinger's left that all behind, to move with his wife, Annelise, and young daughter, Clara, to the remote part of Italy where Annelise grew up - the Alto Adige. Nestled in the Dolomites, this breathtaking, rural region that was once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire remains more Austro than Italian. Locals speak a strange, ancient dialect - Ladino - and root for Germany (against Italy) in the world cup. Annelise's small town - Siebenhoch - is close-knit to say the least and does not take kindly to out-of-towners. When Salinger decides to make a documentary about the mountain rescue group, the mission goes horribly awry, leaving him the only survivor. He blames himself, and so - it seems - does everyone else in Siebenhoch. Spiraling into a deep depression, he begins having terrible, recurrent nightmares. Only his little girl, Clara, can put a smile on his face. But when he takes Clara to the Bletterbach Gorge - a canyon rich in fossil remains - he accidentally overhears a conversation that gives his life renewed focus. In 1985, three students were murdered there, their bodies savaged, limbs severed and strewn by a killer who was never found. Although Salinger knows this is a tightlipped community, one where he is definitely persona non grata, he becomes obsessed with solving this mystery and is convinced it is all that can keep him sane. And as Salinger unearths the long kept secrets of this small town one by one, the terrifying truth is eventually revealed about the horrifying crime that marked an entire village.

ADHD: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Defining and Understanding a Diagnosis of ADHD , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 86min

You have heard the acronym, ADHD, several times before and you probably know of at least one person that has ADHD. This book breaks down ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. This disorder has caused a great deal of controversy and discussion in recent years and continues to leave many with unanswered questions as to its definition, symptoms, causes, treatment, medications and so much more. Between 3% and 5% of the population of North America and Europe have ADHD. Rates of diagnosis vary wildly between different countries with North America consistently reporting the highest rates of ADHD in the world. Among schoolchildren in the United States, ADHD rates have skyrocketed, and currently sit somewhere between 3% and 16%. With these astounding statistics, ADHD has become a real issue that is surrounding much of the population. There is also a greater number of boys affected with ADHD as compared to their female counterparts. There are at least twice as many confirmed cases of males with ADHD than confirmed females; some estimates have found as many as four diagnosed boys to every one diagnosed girl. It is not yet known whether the gender gap is due to a genuine biological gender difference, or an erroneous difference in diagnosis rates. Preliminary studies have found that girls who display inattentive or hyperactive symptoms are far less likely than boys to be suspected of having ADHD by parents and teachers, which may account for some of the discrepancy. Sub-types of ADHD involving hyperactivity are much more prevalent among boys, while the primarily inattentive subtype tends to have a more even gender divide. From demographics, to gender and diet, to medicinal treatment, ADHD will be uncovered in detail. This book will guide the reader into this mystery of ADHD that is, and has, affected so many lives. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Claton Butcher.

Under Pressure: Confronting the Epidemic of Stress and Anxiety in Girls , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 437min

New York Times best sellerAn urgently needed guide to the alarming increase in anxiety and stress experienced by girls from elementary school through college, from the author of Untangled“An invaluable read for anyone who has girls, works with girls, or cares about girls - for everyone!” (Claire Shipman, author of The Confidence Code and The Confidence Code for Girls)Though anxiety has risen among young people overall, studies confirm that it has skyrocketed in girls. Research finds that the number of girls who said that they often felt nervous, worried, or fearful jumped 55 percent from 2009 to 2014, while the comparable number for adolescent boys has remained unchanged. As a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with girls, Lisa Damour, PhD, has witnessed this rising tide of stress and anxiety in her own research, in private practice, and in the all-girls’ school where she consults. She knew this had to be the topic of her new book.In the engaging, anecdotal style and reassuring tone that won over thousands of fans of her first book, Untangled, Damour starts by addressing the facts about psychological pressure. She explains the surprising and underappreciated value of stress and anxiety: that stress can helpfully stretch us beyond our comfort zones, and anxiety can play a key role in keeping girls safe. When we emphasize the benefits of stress and anxiety, we can help our daughters take them in stride.But no parents want their daughter to suffer from emotional overload, so Damour then turns to the many facets of girls’ lives where tension takes hold: their interactions at home, pressures at school, social anxiety among other girls and among boys, and their lives online. As listeners move through the layers of girls’ lives, they’ll learn about the critical steps that adults can take to shield their daughters from the toxic pressures t ungekürzt. Language: English.
