Bound in Blue , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min, (USK 18)

My misbehaviour during the exam added to my awareness of what I wanted sexually. For all that Tiggy was perfectly friendly and polite, she represented everything I wasn't, and everything I'd set myself against. So, in different ways, did all the macho-men, the stuck-up landowners, the crude farm boys, my archetypal males, all the figures from my fantasies. Given that I wanted to be restrained, it made sense for it to be done by those types rather than the nice guys. After all, just because somebody turns me on doesn't mean I have to like them.When university lecturer Hazel Jones takes the most popular of her female environmental-science students as a lodger, she is expecting a procession of attractive men to follow. What she doesn't expect is Tiggy's diary to be left out every day. Knowing what her lodger gets up to, she is unable to resist reading it. It's not quite what she expects, and the revelations quickly lead her down a path she never expected to take. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Betsy Garden.

Worst. Eurovision. Ever.

Worst. Eurovision. Ever. If you want a look into the kind of nonsense that goes on behind the scenes at the contest, Worst. Eurovision. Ever. will take you on a wild ride around the rehearsals, dressing rooms and showbiz parties with such an informed eye that you'll never look at the dear old contest the same way again.¿ As a journalist, Roy has been covering the contest in person since the nineties, and over those years he's seen all sorts of unexpected misbehaviour and excess. When some plucky underdogs from Moldova unexpectedly won the Eurovision Song Contest, the show's organisers were instantly worried about how they were going to hold the following year's competition in such a small and little-visited country. But the location was the least of their worries as a procession of unlikely artists began to be chosen for the show, and everything from Norwegian black metallers, a Saudi Arabian prince performing for San Marino, and an Icelandic bloke dressed as a dog caused a cascade of complications before a single note had even been sung. Can they keep all the egos in check, or is the whole thing going to come tumbling down around them?¿

Authority Fails in England (eBook, ePUB)

Intolerance, violence, racist remarks, and incidents of physical assault are not only present in schools amongst students today but also seem to be intensifying with the passage of time. Children's lack of respect for authority in England, their stubbornness, and unwillingness to abide by the established rules make matters worse. Parents and caregivers present in England and across the world struggle to raise responsible and contributing citizens, further aggravating the misdemeanours. The lack of guidance regarding the upbringing of their children is creating harms that need to be addressed at once. But what causes children's misbehaviour in our day and age, and can we ever successfully rid ourselves of it? What can we do to tackle the issue at hand? Authority Fails in England holds answers to these questions and much more. From the factors that lead to the misconduct and disobedience of students to the counteractive measures that must be taken, this book is a guiding light for parents, teachers, and the officials in charge of making laws. Primarily a strategic guide for parents to raise their children by putting in effective efforts, Authority Fails in England covers several topics that have unfortunately been brushed under the carpet for centuries. But not anymore! And never again

The Popes: A History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1276min

Well known for his histories of Norman Sicily, Venice, the Byzantine Empire and the Mediterranean, John Julius Norwich has now turned his attention to the oldest continuing institution in the world, tracing the papal line down the centuries from St Peter himself – traditionally (though by no means historically) the first pope – to the present Benedict XVI. Of the 280-odd holders of the supreme office, some have unquestionably been saints; others have wallowed in unspeakable iniquity. One was said to have been a woman – and an English woman at that – her sex being revealed only when she improvidently gave birth to a baby during a papal procession. Pope Joan never existed (though the Church long believed she did) but many genuine pontiffs were almost as colourful: Formosus, for example, whose murdered corpse was exhumed, clothed in pontifical vestments, propped up on a throne and subjected to trial; or John XII of whom Gibbon wrote: 'his rapes of virgins and widows deterred female pilgrims from visiting the shrine of St Peter lest, in the devout act, they should be violated by his successor.’ Others earned respect, including Leo the Great who protected Rome from the Huns and the Goths, and Gregory the Great who struggled manfully with the emperor for supremacy. After calamitous crusades, and 70-year exile in Avignon, came the larger-than-life pontiffs of the Renassiance – the Borgias and the Medicis ('God has given us the papacy; let us now enjoy it'). Pius VII had to contend with Napoleon, Pius IX to steer the papacy through the storm of the Risorgimento. John Julius Norwich brings the story up-to-date with lively investigations into the anti-semitism of Pius XII, the possible murder of John Paul I and the phenomenon of the Polish John Paul II. From here the glories of the Byznatium to the decay of Rome, from the Albigensian Heresy to sexual misbehaviour within the Church today, the pace never slackens.
