Gods at Play: An Eyewitness Account of Great Moments in American Sports
As a columnist for Time magazine, among many other publications, Tom Callahan witnessed an extraordinary number of defining moments in American sport across four decades. He takes us from Roberto Clemente clinching his 3,000th, and final, regular-season hit in Pittsburgh; to ringside for the Muhammad Ali-George Foreman fight in Zaire; and to Arthur Ashe announcing, at a news conference, that he'd tested positive for HIV. There are also little-known private moments: Joe Morgan whispering thank you to a virtually blind Jackie Robinson on the field at the 1972 World Series, or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar saying he was more interested in being a good man than in being the greatest basketball player. Brimming with colorful vignettes and enlivened by Callahan's eye for detail, Gods at Play offers surprising portraits of the most celebrated names in sports. Roger Rosenblatt calls Callahan "the most complete sportswriter in America. He knows the most and writes the best."- Shop: buecher

Stolen: The True Story of a Sex Trafficking Survivor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 335min
Sex trafficking is currently a hot news topic, but it is not a new problem or just a problem in "other" countries. Every year, an estimated 80,000 American children are lured into the sex trade, some as young as eight years old. It is thought that up to 90 percent of victims are never rescued. Stolen is the true story of one survivor who escaped - more than once. First recruited while staying with her family at a hotel in Miami Beach, Katariina Rosenblatt was already a lonely and abused young girl who was yearning to be loved. She fell into the hands of a confident young woman who pretended friendship but slowly lured her into a child prostitution ring. For years afterward, a cycle of false friendship, threats, drugs, and violence kept her trapped. As Kat shares her harrowing experiences, listeners will quickly realize the frightening truth that these terrible things could have happened to any child - a neighbor, a niece, a friend, a sister, a daughter. But beyond that, they will see that there is real hope for the victims of sex trafficking. Stolen is more than a warning. It is a celebration of survival that will inspire. ungekürzt.

How to Handle Money for Aging Loved Ones: The Boomer's Guide to Aging Parents, Vol. 6 (The Boomers Guide To Aging Parents) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 58min
Elder abuse has been called the crime of the 21st century. Everyone's parent is at risk when certain factors are present. Don't allow your aging parent to be ripped off because you weren't paying attention. This minibook explains how to manage an aging parent's money legally and safely, and with confidence that you're doing the right thing. Money can be a sticky issue for families, especially when one is faced with the idea of taking over control of an elder's checkbook. Handling money competently requires the ability to pay attention to details, keep track of expenditures, and to be aware of what one has to spend. When our aging parents begin to "slip" in these areas, adult children can become confused about who has the right to do what. This concise book describes how to take over the finances when the time comes, and what legal documents you must have in order to be in charge of an aging parent's money. It walks you through the process of assuming responsibility with a power of attorney for finances. It tells you what a guardianship is, and when one might be necessary. It also discusses a growing problem in our society: financial elder abuse. You'll find value in How to Handle Money for Aging Loved Ones. Author, Carolyn L. Rosenblatt, is a registered nurse and an attorney with over 40 years of combined experience in her two professions. She is a consultant and mediator with a practice in San Rafael, California. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bruce Tokars.

Vom Moritz, der kein Schmutzkind mehr sein wollte
Er putzt sich die Zähne, indem er einen Schluck Wasser nimmt und es gleich wieder ausspuckt. Er wäscht sich, indem er mit einer nassen Hand kurz mal sein Gesicht anfeuchtet. Er säubert seine Schuhe,indem er sie an der Hose abwischt: Moritz, der in einem Kinderheim wohnt, das außen gelb ist und innen violett. Moritz, das Schmutzkind. Eines Tages jedoch steht ein König vor der Tür. Mit goldener Krone und goldenem Gewand und blitzblank glänzenden goldenen Schuhen. Und mit einem gar nicht so goldigen Problem, ist doch sein einziges Kind, die Prinzessin Rosenblatt, von einer bösen Hexe verwunschen worden und schläft nun und schläft. Wer jetzt an Dornröschen denkt, der denkt gut aber liegt falsch. Sie ist längst ein Klassiker: Franz Fühmanns vielfach aufgelegte, jedoch lange nicht mehr lieferbare erstegroße Kindergeschichte mit den Illustrationen von Inge Friebel. In der es um das Springen in tiefschwarze Eierpampenpfützen geht, um Äste und Zweige, die wilde Wuschelhaare kämmen, um unangenehm kaltes Badewasser, um eine Schmutzhexe in ihrem Schmutzland und um Herzen,die durch böse Taten dreckig werden können. Eine Geschichte, in der Moritz auf spannende Weise lernt, dass vieles besser ist, wenn es sich gewaschen hat. Und dass es sehr schön sein kann,wenn man sauber ist. Allein schon, weil man dann auf einenicht mehr schlafende Prinzessin mit natürlich! schneeweißer Haut trifft, die sich nicht schmutzig machen will. Was stört es da schon, wenn bald danach ein König zu schnarchen beginnt.- Shop: buecher

The Road to Omaha: Hits, Hopes, and History at College World Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 772min
Every summer, college baseball teams from around the nation come to Omaha, Nebraska, to play pure move-the-man-over, run-manufacturing baseball in a series that’s part college bowl game, part county fair. In the spirit of 3 Nights in August and The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty, veteran sports writer Ryan McGee goes behind the scenes, into the stands, and onto the field to reveal an exciting yet personal look at one of the hottest sports championships in the country - the College World Series. In 2008, the 10-day, eight-team tournament was the scene of one of the greatest series in its illustrious history. And Ryan McGee puts the listener behind closed doors with the underdog champs, the Fresno State Bulldogs, as well as with their seven opponents, from the first batting practice session, to bus rides to the ballpark, to the locker room and the dugout. It’s the CWS as few ever see it. But The Road to Omaha goes far beyond the 2008 season. It’s an in-depth look at the managing strategies and playing style of college baseball, as well as a series of profiles that examine the people behind and around the CWS - the players, coaches, and fans who keep that feeling of good-old-days innocence alive through their reverence for the Great American Pastime. McGee also takes up residence at Rosenblatt Stadium itself, reliving its rich history and tapping into the electricity around it, from the tailgating fans to the surrounding neighborhoods. “The Blatt” is America’s last real connection to the baseball belief that Field of Dreams can actually happen: a wooden-framed ballpark with cramped concourses where teams share locker rooms, change clothes in the parking lot, and sign autographs for kids until their fingers cramp. “The Blatt” is a monument to tradition - and the last of its kind to keep that tradition alive. Thanks to Ryan McGee’s quick eye for play-by-play action, as well as his deep love for sports, The Road to ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin Stillwell.
