Before deciding on a career in show business, Hope took various jobs, from butcher’s assistant to professional boxer.Hope’s early performance career consisted of vaudeville acts, centered around comedic dancing and singing. Hope moved into radio and from there into a career making and starring in films (while still performing live on Broadway in the evenings). Hope is most well-known for a series of road movies with Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour. Hope is also well-known in his later years for performing stand-up comedy for the US military around the world.In 2003, Hope died of pneumonia at the age of 100. When, on his deathbed, he was asked by his wife, Dolores, where he wanted to be buried, Hope told her, "Surprise me."Hope starred in more than 50 feature films, wrote 14 books, hosted the Academy Awards show 19 times (more than any other host), and performed more than 55 comedy tours for the United Service Organizations. ungekürzt.

    You never get tired unless you stop and take time for it. (Bob Hope) A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. Of all the show business icons in American history, one of the most beloved was Bob Hope, whose career spanned over six decades across film, television, vaudeville, comedy, and touring and earned him too many accolades to count. On the day of his 100th birthday, more than half of the states in America declared it "Bob Hope Day", a sign of just how monumental and influential he was as an entertainer. Along the way he performed so many United Service Organization (USO) tours, visiting troops, that Congress made him the "first and only honorary veteran of the US armed forces." Incredibly, he was given honorary awards for his career at the Academy Awards nearly 40 years before his death and decades before he actually retired from public life. By the time he reached his twilight, he was an instantly recognized institution unto himself. All of that would have been impressive for any American, let alone someone who was actually born in England with the name Leslie Townes Hope. Indeed, the quintessential American entertainer wouldn't actually move to the country until he was four, and while his English roots may have helped his impressive impersonation of Charlie Chaplin when Hope was merely a teen, he quickly became an American through and through. ungekürzt.

    It's interesting to note that there have been many healthy human populations throughout our history, even long before the advent of antibacterial soap. In fact, the collective fascination with adding chemical ingredients to bar and liquid soaps in order to help fight infections only began in recent decades. Since then, much evidence has emerged to suggest that antibacterial soaps don't clean us any more thoroughly than their "old-fashioned predecessors" do. What's more, they may pose health concerns both on personal and environmental levels. This is why Sandy Chase decided to write Best Tips and Tricks for Soap Making. The most disturbing concern is that these new kinds of cleansers may actually contribute to a general sanitation problem by promoting the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Antibacterial soaps don't just kill disease-causing bacteria. They kill every kind of bacteria that is susceptible to them. If resistant bacteria were then to form, they could easily dominate their surrounding environment (be it a household or larger ecosystem) due to a lack of competition. Our race survived for eons and produced many healthy men and women without the aid of our new bacteria-fighting products. Babies even need a certain level of exposure to germs in order for their immune systems to develop properly. Evidence suggests that we may be compromising our own adult systems as well through our increasing reliance upon antibacterial soaps. In a way, this reliance reveals a certain distrust of our environment (which is seen as hostile) and our bodies (which are seen as overly vulnerable). We may need to start trusting ourselves - and the kinds of natural products that kept us clean for so long in the past - once again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Francesca Townes.

    Set The Rum Diaries or I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell in an out-of-control fraternity house, and you get Total Frat Move - the next (d)evolution in college debauchery. Put simply, it is time for a national update on college fraternities. Greek life today makes Animal House (now more than three decades old) look like a Pixar movie. The Total Frat Move website and twitter feed were created to fill this vacuum for "fraternity humor", and both went viral the minute they hit the web - and have not stopped growing since. "The website is so awful, so atrocious, it has been my policy to call for the immediate annihilation of its users. They should have their toes chewed off by rabid weasels, at the very least." —Robert Beckhusen, The University Star "Yesterday I discovered TotalFratMove.com. Today, I am an addict." —Tatiana Schlossberg (JFK's granddaughter), Broad Recognition Magazine This audiobook of completely new narrative material will give everyone a chance to experience the glory that is college life through the eyes of Townes Prescott III, the fictional epitome of a hard-partying fraternity member. Prescott will guide listeners through all of the "nuances" of 21st century frat life, including unforgettable events such as rush, bid night, hell week, tailgating, and road trips. While the stories have been fictionalized for the sake of narrative, variations of everything in the audiobook happen every year in colleges across America.

    We live in a society obsessed with monsters. Think of all the television shows and movies in just the past two years featuring vampires, werewolves, and assorted creatures of the night. We like being scared, screaming in the middle of a crowded movie theatre and then awkwardly pretending it was someone else. The feeling that we can go home safe, believing that it wasn't real. But, monsters are real, and human beings can be the scariest of them all. It's an unfortunate fact that real life is sometimes more twisted than even the worst horror writer can imagine. Nowhere is this seen more clearly than when discussing serial killers. While many people can understand, if not condone, a crime of passion or vengeance, it is different for those who kill, time and time again, for reasons that the common person, could not hope to understand? Those familiar with the Criminal Minds series will already know that the FBI has spent a great deal of time and resources in tracking, capturing, and ultimately understanding serial killers. According to them, a serial killer can be classified as such if he (used loosely since there are female serial killers): Has killed a minimum of three or four individuals Has what is termed a "cooling off" period between kills Generally kills for reasons other than profit Typically chooses strangers as victims, although they may have some symbolic value, such as bearing similar features to the real but somehow unattainable target Exhibits a sadistic need to overpower/dominate victims, often by means of torture. These points help to distinguish a serial killer from spree killers or even mass murderers, since these two groups tend to lack a cooling off period. However, some experts have suggested the inclusion of a hybrid "spree-serial killer" category. This is because some serial killers have experienced prolonged periods of sequential murder without ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Francesca Townes.

    You are about to start a business that needs capital. You know a rich family/friend with some extra cash but you are not sure how to approach him/her or what to tell him/her. From all the stories you have heard; once people borrow money from family and friends the relationships deteriorates especially if the business fails or experiences a slow take off. You have considered what it could be like if you ever failed to pay back the money on time. The thought of which leaves you sleepless at night. It would mean avoiding Christmas dinners, barbeque at Aunt Rosie's house and other family occasions. Yet your need for the capital remains and the conviction that your family and friend has the money still lingers. You know what; it doesn't have to be that way. The main problem is that relationships go sour because individuals set up wrong agreements with their family and friend and forget that relationships will suffer if certain obligations are not met. Actually as much as 8 out of 10 people do not have a written agreement with the family and friend they borrowed money from, but rely on inaccurate and flimsy conversation as the vehicle towards joining themselves into a business relationship. However as time goes on details become very fussy, neither party can remember exactly what was said or the transaction details. (It is common for start-up entrepreneurs to ignore family and friend as a source of raising capital solely based on their reluctance to ruin relationships. However the people that care about your success, most of the time are your family and friends. Also this sector of the community can offer the best source of start-up funding as we shall see later in this book.)Underneath all this problems is the root cause of non-disclosure. What people failed to tell the family and friends that has now become the cause for contention between both parties. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Leigh Townes.
