Marcin Zukowski, Thierry Cruanes, and Benoit Dageville had a mission. As Snowflake’s founders, they wanted to make all types of data available to anybody with permission to use it via a simple and inexpensive mechanism. Their collective efforts drove the breakthrough creation of the Data Cloud. Snowflake’s Data Cloud platform ingests available data and transforms it into information. Without the ability to effectively process, data is just a collection of raw facts.

I don’t know what it is about Cage Rucker that makes my wolf howl. Yeah, he has a body that’s been chiseled from marble, and a smile that melts my heart, but it’s more than that. There’s something about the way he smells. My wolf knows. Does that mean that this boy is going to fall all over himself to find out? No way. Cage has a girlfriend. I don’t fall for straight boy… anymore. I wouldn’t even have talked to him again if he hadn’t offered me an exchange I couldn’t refuse.

On April 12, 1945, a fleet of American B-29 bombers flew toward Japan. Their mission was simple: Stop World War II by burning the cities, factories, and military bases of the Japanese em­pire, thereby forcing an unconditional surrender. But it didn't go as planned. Onboard one of the B-29s, the City of Los Angeles, a phosphorus bomb detonated inside the plane. Staff Sergeant Henry E. "Red" Erwin absorbed the blast of burning phosphorus and managed to throw the still-flaming bomb overboard be­fore collapsing from the third-degree burns that covered his body.

How did I end up almost 300,000 dollars in debt? It wasn’t as hard as it sounds. I went to Columbia and studied anthropology. The perfect background to get a great job. Right? Okay. It was a stupid choice. As it turns out, one of several. So, I ended up answering phones at a third-rate magazine. In New Jersey. When a duffel bag full of big bills showed up in my gym locker, I did what anybody with student loans would do. I paid them off. It turns out that the money didn't come from my fairy godmother after all. Some goons stashed it in the wrong locker.

My whole life, my mother told me I would never find love. So when my university’s hot, rich, starting quarterback asked me to marry him, this girl said yes. We had only been dating for two weeks. By the third week, he had shattered my heart. Maybe I shouldn’t have made a big deal about bringing him to the next family get-together. Luckily, there was one person who could always fix things when a guy left me in pieces: my best friend, Titus. He was my rock. That’s why I asked him to come home with me to pretend to be my fiancé.  

Teasing a wolf usually gets you bit. That’s why I never made a move on my best friend. But when he saves me from the worst fate of all, facing my family without the fiancé I told them I had, he becomes hard to resist.

When Kendall wakes up from a night of drinking with a note pinned to her shirt, the last thing she guesses is that it was put there by a gorgeous guy who desperately wanted to see her again. Why would she? She was nerdy, more than a little awkward, and had never even kissed a guy. And it wasn’t like she had come to university to date. She had big plans. She was going to help people who were going through difficult times and she was going to be the best in the world at it.

He might make her nerdy heart pound like the drums at one of his football games, but Quin needs to get over star quarterback, Cage Rucker. For one thing, he has a girlfriend. For another, she didn’t come to college to find a guy, even if he is sweet and kind, and volunteers with kids on the weekend. She has bigger plans. Unfortunately, those bigger plans require one thing she doesn’t have—the ability to talk to people. And who’s good at talking to people? Cage Rucker.

In Two Men from Babylon, Wallace Henley brings into perspective how God uses unlikely leaders to bring about his plans and purpose. Here is a masterfully constructed audiobook that tears the camouflage off our times and looks intensely at what is going on in our crazy era on the eve of a year of destiny - and perhaps for civilization itself.

A girl asks her best friend to pretend to be her fiancé and falls for him hard. That wasn’t Louise’s plan. Her plan was to prove that everything her parents ever said about her was wrong. And since that included that no one would ever love her, when the hottest guy ever asked her to marry him after two dates, she said yes. Lou’s plan might have worked if the hot guy didn’t ghost her after she told her parents to expect him at their next family get-together. So, what choice did she have but to instead ask her way too sexy best friend to pretend to be her fiancé?

But, when her professor selects her as a counselor in an exclusive program mentoring troubled students, and is assigned the same set of broad shoulders and marble cheekbones, this time she can’t storm off. Why was Nero Roman, star running back, in a program for troubled students? Could it have to do with his small-town roots? Can Kendall lower her guard long enough to find out?
