    On Time by Catherine Blyth reveals why time sped up, why there never seems to be enough and how to make it yours again. We have more time than ever - so why do we feel time poor? The short answer is that our world is addicted to fast. And we have become its servant. Instead of grasping the liberating potential of technology, many of us are locked in to a doomed race to outpace hurry. The more we value time, the less we feel we have. Angry, witty and enlightening, On Time is a handbook for navigating a fast-forward world that asks the questions productivity guides ignore: why time sped up, how it is stolen, how it really works and how to stop managing it and instead make it work for you. Blyth combines cutting-edge research from neuroscience and psychology with accessible stories from philosophy to history to sinking ships, from Leonardo da Vinci to Usain Bolt, Aristotle to Anna Wintour, Kant to Keith Richards. Delving into the secret lives of habits, decisions and motivation, she reveals why time speeds up when you long for it to slow and how time thieves take our good intentions for a walk. Find out what makes good timing; why some hours trudge while others sprint by; how bright colours, fast food and rapid breathing affect our tempo; how autonomy takes the stress out of pressure; and what hours suit which activities best. Each of us can expect 1,000 months on this planet, if we are lucky. So cease clock watching, stop stockpiling self-reproach and quit chasing white rabbits. Time is humanity's finest invention, and with small, practical steps it can become your servant. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sophie Aldred.

    Lyanne glanced sideways at her handsome new husband Michael as his car sped them north to his home in Scotland, and wondered why those words made her feel vaguely uneasy. It wasn't long, either, before those fears became even more dominant in her thoughts, especially with the arrival of Jason and his shocking revelations which Michael had never bothered to mention. She was also to discover that she had a rival for Michael's affection and that he possessed a mysterious, even shady past. Then, high on the mountains which towered above their home, a tragic event finally began to help Lyanne understand her feelings, ultimately helping her to find the true love she had always craved. ungekürzt.

    Greg, Billy, and Bobby were a wild bunch when they are together and had a thing for taking things to the limit, but their thrill seeking days were about to come to a screeching halt when the three boys piled into Greg's '68 Camaro and decided to show their friends back at school that dead man's curve isn't such a dangerous curve after all and should not be called dead man's curve. As the three boys were heading to their final destination, dead man's curve, Billy was handing out the beers to add to the excitement, and couldn't wait to laugh at their scared friends about how they sped around dead man's curve and lived to tell about it. ungekürzt.

    The hottest sex I ever had was with a man I had never met... After a trip downtown, I found myself on a train headed home. I was wearing high heels and was constantly off balance as the train sped up and slowed down. Luckily for me, a handsome stranger was there to catch me and steady me. After noticing my huge tits and long legs, however, he decided he was going to accept my thanks in the most personal way possible- even though the entire train could see! This 3000 word story features a girl with a short dress and high heels, a guy who can't control his lust for her, exhibitionism, multiple orgasms, and, to top it all off, a fantastically impregnating creampie! ungekürzt.

    They met... Rachel's heart stopped when he entered the restaurant. He was rugged and sexy. His smile lit the room, but the darkness in his eyes hinted to more. He rescued her... Stranded on the side of the highway with her life crumbling around her, there he was again. Drawing her into his sports car, he sped her away to a world of luxury and privilege leaving all of her troubles behind. But there was a catch Rachel breathed in his passion like a drug. To leave him was like death; but to be with him was to dance with the demons that looked to consume her as they had already consumed him. Rachel had to know if he would destroy her or make her whole.

    If there is one sector of society that should be cultivating deep thought in itself and others, it is academia. Yet the corporatisation of the contemporary university has sped up the clock, demanding increased speed and efficiency from faculty regardless of the consequences for education and scholarship. In The Slow Professor, Maggie Berg and Barbara K. Seeber discuss how adopting the principles of the Slow movement in academic life can counter this erosion of humanistic education. Focusing on the individual faculty member and his or her own professional practice, Berg and Seeber present both an analysis of the culture of speed in the academy and ways of alleviating stress while improving teaching, research, and collegiality. The Slow Professor will be a must-listen for anyone in academia concerned about the frantic pace of contemporary university life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Emily Sutton-Smith.

    Hyperthyroidism is a term that simply means a person has developed an overactive thyroid gland. The metabolism of a person with hyperthyroidism is sped up from too much thyroid hormone in their system, so that everything in the body is running at overdrive. When this happens, the person will experience hyperthyroid symptoms. The vast majority of people with hyperthyroidism (95%) experience Graves' disease as the cause. This is an autoimmune disease caused by antibodies created by the immune system that attach to the thyroid gland and stimulate it to produce excessive amounts of hormone. Graves' disease and other causes of hyperthyroidism are addressed as well as detailed discussion on symptoms diagnosis and treatments. This audiobook is not intended to be an extensive manual but is intended to contain information most often sought by laypersons on the subject. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James M.
