    It Runs in the Family: On Being Raised by Radicals and Growing into Rebellious Motherhood , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 247min
    Parenting is hard. So is being a peacemaker in a violent world. It Runs in the Family is a book about how parents can create lasting and meaningful bulwarks between their kids and the violence endemic in our culture. It posits discipline without spanks or slaps or threats of violence while considering how to raise thoughtful, compassionate, fearless young people committed to social and political change - without scaring, hectoring, or scarring them with all the wrongs in the world. Frida Berrigan is a mother and stepmother, wife, and daughter. Her parents, Phil Berrigan and Elizabeth McAlister, were a former priest and nun who became nationwide icons for their prophetic witness against war and nuclear weapons, which sometimes resulted in long jail sentences. Berrigan grew up in the community they helped found, Jonah House in Baltimore, and becoming a parent herself has forced her to come to terms with her own upbringing in new ways. Expanding on the stories in her popular column for the website Waging Nonviolence, Berrigan has crafted a welcome antidote to the various parenting fads currently on offer from French moms and tiger moms and mean moms. She offers a unique perspective on parenting that derives from hard work, deep reflection, and lots of trial and error. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Bennett.

    What Is Acne and How to Get Rid of It , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 23min
    Acne is also called by its medical name, "acne vulgaris". This is a condition which lasts for a very long time and shows up with areas of blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, greasy skin, and, more than likely, scarring. Individuals that normally have acne have bouts of depression and anxiety, but most of them just have low self-esteem, but with the ones that have severe bouts of depression, thoughts of suicide are also common because of their appearance. Studies have shown that about 80 percent of acne cases are caused by genetics and hormones, mainly during the adolescent years of someone's life. Someone in their family had a severe case of acne and then passed it along to their kids and so on. It is still unclear as to if having a certain diet is the cause of acne, and it is also unclear if having dirty skin or sun can cause it. The areas where acne is located is where the oily glands are located which are the face, the upper part of the chest, and your back. There was one study that was done that says smoking cigarettes increases the risk of getting acne and also on how severe it can get, and there is still being research done. ungekürzt.

    Running Scared: Masculinity and the Representation of the Male Body , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 645min
    In his analysis of films, novels, paintings, photographs, popular music, jokes, and videos, Peter Lehman investigates the patriarchal culture that keeps the male body, and especially male genitals, out of sight. Lehman examines representations of the male body and male sexuality in a variety of settings and through many different lenses. Among the films he analyzes are Howard Hawks' Rio Bravo and Rio Lobo; Scarlet Street; feral child films The Wild Child, Kaspar House, and Greystoke; and Nagisa Oshima's In the Realm of the Senses. In these works, Lehman explores the symbolic enculturation of males, assumptions about power and the male body, and the ways that men's and women's bodies are marked differently with regard to scarring, wounding, and aging. In addition to film, Lehman also considers such varied material as Jim Thompson's noir novel The Nothing Man, sexology and medical representations of male sexuality, the video Dick Talk, penis jokes in Hollywood films of the 1970s and 1980s, and popular music by Roy Orbison. This edition of Running Scared also includes a new chapter on male nudity in the films of the 1990s, adding fresh analysis to this classic text. An updated preface situates the book within the current critical climate. The book is published by Wayne State University Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Doug Miller.

    Anish Kapoor: Between Painting and Sculpture: Cv/Visual Arts Research, Book 232, Hörbuch, Digital, 16min
    A recorded visit to an exhibition by Anish Kapoor at the Lisson Gallery, London continued to 22nd June, 2019. Includes descriptions of works and bio-dara of the artist. In the rear ground floor space of the gallery a suite of new paintings, completed at the end of 2018. Each canvas is 274 cms tall by 213 cms wide. The colour range is restricted and highly pitched, a distinctly abstract expressionist handling with sweeping brush and hand work. An aggressive and confrontational approach infuses a violently striated surface. A basic pink shape, in some like sagging flesh or an upturned vessel is worked with smeared white strokes, then corrupted by slashed veins of blood red and pitch black, scarring the lower part of the canvases. The hand work introduces an element of unleashed energy on the white ground, in a scheme of unleashed emotion. It is violently expressive, chaotic and turbulent. The painting ‘Teeth’ 2018 resembles a tip tilted jug spewing corrupted matter. These recent paintings progress of the artist’s constant preoccupation with the life force of the body. Previously viewed in the giant ‘Leviathan’; a maroon inflatable of spectacular dimension installed in Monumenta 2011 at the Grand Palais Paris. Here visitors walked inside the heart shaped cavern, encountering receding passages of valves and vents. Kapoor has never resisted dynamic scale for maximum resonance of effect. Language: English.

    World Divided: Book Two of the Secret World Chronicle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1038min
    From New York Times best-seller and science-fiction and fantasy mistress of adventure Mercedes Lackey, together with a team of topnotch collaborators, comes Book Two in The Secret World Chronicle, a pulse-pounding saga of superpowers - and the very human men and women who must learn to wield them without losing themselves in the process. After an Earth-scarring apocalyptic battle, the meta-humans have turned back a massive invasion of super-science powered Nazi war machines - and have at least driven whoever is in ultimate control of them to pause and regroup. Now meta-hero organizations Echo and sometime Russian ally CCCP must go on the offense and battle back. Task one: to hunt down the secret puppet masters behind the Nazi robot invasion, the Thule Society. To do so, the heroes of Echo, led by Bulwark and Red Djinni, face the guardians of a hidden trove of Nazi armor. Meanwhile, a sadistic genius super villain arises who is determined to defeat both heroes and Thulians alike - a villain who just may have the wealth and cunning to pull it off. It’s “go time” once again for the meta-heroes, including fire-bender John Murdock, techno-witch Vicki Nagy, healer Belladona Blue, super-quick Mercurye, chameleon Red Djinni - and for their ghostly ally, The Seraphym. Somehow, they must unite in the fight against the evil and slavery that is fast descending upon the entire universe! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Sullivan.
