Tinnitus: My Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 61min
This audiobook is the result of my learning that I have tinnitus. It addresses what tinnitus is and my options for dealing with the problem. I have suffered with tinnitus for over 35 years. I had been checked by several doctors over the years and was told that either they couldn't find a problem or there was nothing that could be done. I learned how to deal with it. I have never been one to complain about the hand I have been dealt. I recently saw a commercial on TV that told me there were now things that could be done about it. What you hear in this audiobook is the result of my research and experiences. While I was doing my research, I found that there isn't a cure, at least at this point in time. I was open to considering a pharmaceutical solution to help in the treatment process, but learned that as of 2013 there wasn't an FDA-approved drug available. In the past, the only thing that hearing aids were able to do was give some amplification, which can help in some cases of tinnitus, but which may not be able to help in all situations. The solution I found has been available for about a year and half, at this point. It masks the sound of tinnitus. With technology being in a constant state of evolvement, things will only get better. Maybe some day there will be a cure for tinnitus; for today, we can at least treat the symptom. These are just my experiences. The results you experience may be different from mine. It is my hope that listening to my audiobook will save you some of the research that I have had to go through. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ronald I. Nutter.

The Illustrated Good Omens
There is a hint of Armageddon in the air. According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (recorded, thankfully, in 1655, before she blew up her entire village and all its inhabitants, who had gathered to watch her burn), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. So the Armies of Good and Evil are massing, the four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world's last two remaining witchfinders are getting ready to Fight the Good Fight. Atlantis is rising. Frogs are falling. Tempers are flaring, and everything appears to be going to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. They've lived amongst Humanity for millennia, and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle. So if Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they've got to find and kill the AntiChrist (which is a shame, really, as he's a nice kid). There's just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him. This edition features a new revised text, approved by Neil Gaiman and the Pratchett Estate, which clears up many typos and errors from previous editions. It also features twelve full colour illustrations from Paul Kidby - Terry Pratchett's artist of choice - and further pencil drawings.- Shop: buecher

Heady Bloom (eBook, ePUB)
A buddy-cop dramedy starring a bottle of Advil and a headache that won't quit Imagine you're standing in a room, and someone on the other side of the door won't stop knocking - ever. Welcome to Andrew Faulkner's world of the never-ending, low-grade headache, a medical issue resolved only by striking up a committed relationship with the slippery miracle that is Advil. Through direct address, sideways glances, lyrical interludes and deep consideration of what it means to overcome a condition when living is a part of the condition itself, these poems observe the speaker's world as it crowds around him, coming into sharper and specific focus, from the hard wisdom of saints on suffering and a slightly unhinged Caravaggio on the metaphysics of painting, through to the deep meaning of a hot dog and a thoroughly botched retelling of a Norm Macdonald joke. Throughout it all, Advil whirls around like an unruly tornado of a sidekick, snapping Polaroids and "searching for a cloud that resembles a plausible end-of-life scenario.” Think of this collection as a meditation on how to deal with pain and uncertainty when life itself is an uncertain, painful mess. These are poems that acknowledge the shakiness of the ground we stand on. The opening poem wonders: "If you stay with the shakiness through its conjugations? Who knows.” But don't worry. Advil's on the case and aims to find out. "These wry poems cajole the reader into feverish attentiveness. Andrew Faulkner's Heady Bloom is that unusual collection of poems whose aim is generous and profound, but whose means are often comic and provocative, all jagged edges and elbows. Chaplinesque, perhaps, but Chaplin at an all-ages hardcore show, or having been to one and reflecting on it later, in tranquility." —Ed Skoog, author of Travelers Leaving for the City and Run the Red Lights"Among other issues, this book explores how the seizures, hallucinations, and excruciating pain caused by neurological conditions that are now treated clinically were once thought of as visions granted to and endured by saints. Faulkner does this in poems that are filled with seriousness but also humor, unlikely allusions, and exhilarating wordplay. A running conceit is the speaker's ambivalent relationship—a kind of "bromance”—with Advil, modern medicine personified as his nemesis and doppelgänger, a taunting comedian but also a vital helpmate, a debased version of the saints' archangelic protectors. Faulkner's imagery and conceits surprise and delight. A strange and beautiful book. " —Geoffrey Nutter- Shop: buecher
