Sharing an adolescence in Hyannisport, Massachusetts, the two frequented beach bonfires and the Monday-night yacht-club dances, took road trips, shared albums, sneaked cigarettes on the widow’s walk of John’s house, and scored beer together. And as they grew older, John and Billy never lost the connection they forged in the Kennedy compound as two young boys who had both tragically lost their fathers. A humble and touching memoir, Forever Young uncovers the private John F. Kennedy, Jr from the matchless vantage point of a longtime childhood friend. Forever Young ispacked with never revealed details of John and Carolyn Bessette’s courtship and wedding, the launch of George, John’s unusually close relationship with his mother Jackie, and the heartbreaking aftermath of the plane crash off Martha’s Vineyard that killed John, Carolyn, and Carolyn’s sister. Noonan also shares the more ribald episodes, including John’s many famous conquests, skirmishes with paparazzi, and his stint as People’s “Sexiest Man Alive.” The definitive story of the son of Camelot, Forever Young is a touching and revelatory tribute to a friendship between two men—and a life cut devastatingly short. ungekürzt.

Men have Viagra and women have...? There is no magic pill for women, yet! But the big pharmacy companies are rushing to change that. In the meantime, Susie takes a look at what's being marketed to women to help them keep up with their chemically enhanced partners. And so far the products are kinda like snake oils. Susie has a beef with all the hype. Whatever happened to good old masturbation to increase a libido? And what about a vibrator? These time-tested but not so new ways to help get you off just aren't moneymakers for the drug companies! Next, Susie turns to a question posed on the website ViceLand. They asked: What is the weirdest thing that has ever happened to you at a urinal? Have you ever been hit on, have you ever sneaked a peek at your neighbor, is it okay to have a conversation while peeing? Well, according to the many responses, a lot of strange stuff goes on for guys in public restrooms. Then, in the "Try This at Home" mailbag, Susie gets a letter from a husband who is in need of some advice. He says that he and his wife have had sex in the same position for the past 20 years. "How can I get her to be more adventurous?" Have a question? You can call Susie's hotline at 831-480-5110.

A Pot of Gold/Ants: A Chinese Folktale, Hörbuch, Digital, 5min
Award-winning storyteller Bill Gordh (Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence winner, National Association of Parenting Periodicals Gold Award winner) presents this folk tale live with no script, accompanied only by his own dynamic banjo playing. There was a farmer who worked hard on his land for many years. He and his wife had a little farmhouse and ate their simple meals each night together. One evening the farmer ran down from the fields all excited. His next door neighbor saw the old farmer and wondered what was going on. He sneaked over to the old farmer's house and listened through the window. The farmer told his wife how he had spotted down in a hole full of rocks a kettle that was full of gold coins. It was too late in the day to move all the rocks, but he would in the morning, and they would have plenty! When the neighbor heard about the gold, he hurried up the hill to the farmer's field to get the gold for himself. Beneath the light of the full moon, he threw all the rocks out of the hole until he was holding the pot. He reached in to feel the gold coins. OUCH! Fire ants swarmed across his hand. The neighbor was angry. The farmer had tricked him. He took the pot and hurried down the hill. He climbed up onto the old farmer's house and cut a hole in the roof. The hole was right above the old couple, who had just gone to bed. The greedy neighbor called down to them, "Here's your pot of gold!" He dumped the pot, and gold coins tumbled out and covered the surprised and delighted old couple! Language: English. Narrator: Bill Gordh.

A twisted, tangled, romantic retelling of the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood Lord Hugh de Bar, known as Wolf, has been cursed and shapeshifts into a wolf at night. He vows to kill the man responsible for his torture, Earl Roland Chaserton of Tavistock, but the man has avoided this confrontation by staying locked away in his castle in hiding. But when the man's granddaughter appears in the woods alone at night, Wolf realizes he can take her captive to lure the earl out of hiding so he can kill him. However, he needs to proceed with caution since the girl is armed with a crossbow and skilled at killing wolves - and also very alluring. Lady Winifred (Red) Chaserton has defied her grandfather's orders and sneaked out of the castle to investigate a mysterious hidden door in a knoll that she's seen on one of the hunting trips with her grandfather's knights. Alone in the dark and without an escort, she has only her crossbow to protect her. But when she feels she's being followed by a wolf, the handsome lord of Babeny appears to protect her instead. She is intrigued by the presence of Lord Hugh de Bar, and lets down her guard. However, things aren't always as they seem, and when she's taken captive by him she realizes there is more to this dark lord than meets the surface. He says he despises her for killing wolves and being the granddaughter of his archenemy, yet his eyes tell her a different story. His gaze devours her - and she feels like he wants to eat her. Will magical forces come between a lady and a wolf, or bring them together instead? And will the de Bar family finally find redemption from the dark magic that has been bestowed upon each of the siblings and brought turmoil into their lives? ungekürzt. Language: English.

Among the Departed: A Constable Molly Smith Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 529min
Fifteen years ago, a young girl by the name of Moonlight Smith went to the house of her best friend, Nicky Nowak, for a sleepover. Moonlight joined the family for breakfast the following morning and was then picked up by her mother. Shortly after, Mr. Nowak went for a walk. He was never seen again. Autumn has arrived on the mountains above Trafalgar, British Columbia, Canada, and the promise of winter is in the air. Constable Molly Smith is sitting by the fireplace with Adam Tocek of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police when Tocek and his dog, Norman, are called to a wilderness camping ground to join the search for a little boy who sneaked away from his family looking for bears. The child is found, dirty, terrified, and weeping but unharmed. Then the inquisitive Norman digs up something else: human bones. The ID isn’t positive, but it is enough to have Sergeant John Winters of the Trafalgar City Police pulling old boxes from the basement to reopen the Brian Nowak investigation. He finds a family shattered beyond recognition by Brian’s disappearance. Mrs. Nowak is an empty shell of a woman, dressed in pajamas, never leaving the house. Her son, Kyle, haunts the streets of Trafalgar at night and spends his days creating beautiful but highly troubling art. Nicky Nowak lives in Vancouver and has grown up to be gorgeous, charming, elegant. Yet behind that façade lies a woman whose heart has closed so tightly against human relationships that she comes to Trafalgar trailing in her wake a terrifying threat to another innocent family. As the investigation into the life and disappearance of Brian Nowak grows, old secrets are brought to light and new ones struggle to remain hidden.Among the Departed is more than a mystery novel: it is also a story of love—love new and old, long concealed, life affirming, and fatal.A Poisoned Pen Press Mystery ungekürzt.

After Watergate: The Renaissance of Richard Nixon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 405min
No one had an inside view of the renaissance of Richard Nixon after Watergate better than the Secret Service agent by his side for 14 years - Michael Endicott. This is a story about politics, history, and power. But, most of all, this is a story about a working-class kid from the south side of Tacoma, Washington, who became a Secret Service agent and traveled the world, building a relationship with one of America’s most controversial presidents, Richard Nixon, and Mrs. Nixon. This is a story about perseverance and friendship - and a story no one else can tell. Not the many presidential biographers and historians, and not even Nixon himself in his many memoirs, ever discussed Nixon the man who longed to rehabilitate his legacy - and how a Secret Service agent became his confidant in reshaping history. Retired Secret Service Agent Michael Endicott spent thousands of hours with Nixon and fills in a vital puzzle piece in history that answers the question: Whatever happened to Richard Nixon when he waved goodbye to the White House, to a flawed presidency, in a nation that wanted to put Watergate behind them? As newly assigned detail leader, Endicott picks up the story after the Nixon’s five years in exile in San Clemente, California, and the statesman’s plan to “get back in the action”, with a move to New York. When Nixon gave up his Secret Service detail - the only President to ever do so - he hired Endicott to be his Chief of Staff, and the two of them changed the course of history as Endicott sneaked Nixon into Moscow for high-level diplomatic talks. He also accompanied the former President to his beloved baseball games at Shea Stadium and arranged family dinners and events. The audiobook portrays Nixon as a father and grandfather, a very private man who eventually enjoyed meeting kids at McDonald’s when he longed to eat inside like a normal person or sign baseball programs when he insisted on sitting in the stands at games instead of in ungekürzt.

Your Optimal Change Strategy: Quickly Transform, Learn, and Master Anything: Enhancing Performance, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 22min
This audiobook is about developing mastery. Of course, anyone who becomes involved in a skill early and life and/or practices for thousands of hours will more than likely develop a high level of competence. Indeed, this is true of golfers like Tiger Woods and my Tai Chi master, both of whom started in their respective field way before reaching puberty.However, is it possible for the executive who plays golf once or twice a week to vastly improve his or her handicap? Can a person who started writing late in life become an excellent author? Although I respect the fact that starting at an early age does give a person a jump start, achieving mastery - or at least a substantially enhanced level of performance - can happen at any age.As a clinical hypnotherapist and NLP trainer, obviously my emphasis will be on the use of suggestion and imagination as tools to accelerate the achievement of mastery. I take this stance due to a brain-based definition. The late Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb is known for promoting the “use it or lose it” concept. What he taught us is that the neural pathways in your brain that are associated with a thought, idea, or behavior will develop more numerous and thicker networks with practice and repetition.Recently neuroscientists have added that this will cause neural stem cells to make more neurons available. This means that the more you focus on a skill, the thicker and more developed the neural substrate related to the skill will become. (Just so you know, the term neural substrate is the proper term for parts of the brain.)Therefore, when the four lads from Liverpool played over 10,000 hours in a brothel in Hamburg, Germany, or another young man sneaked into the computer lab at the University of Washington to spend an equal amount of time becoming a programmer, the required substrates of their brains became extremely developed.While my listeners are probably not members of the Beatles or the founder of ungekürzt.
