  Despite constant efforts to declutter your home, do papers still accumulate like snowdrifts and clothes pile up like a tangled mess of noodles? 
  Japanese cleaning consultant Marie Kondo takes tidying to a whole new level, promising that if you properly simplify and organize your home once, you'll never have to do it again. Most methods advocate a room-by-room or little-by-little approach, which doom you to pick away at your piles of stuff forever. The KonMari Method, with its revolutionary category-by-category system, leads to lasting results. In fact, none of Kondo's clients have lapsed (and she still has a three-month waiting list). 
  With detailed guidance for determining which items in your house "spark joy" (and which don't), this international bestseller featuring Tokyo's newest lifestyle phenomenon will help you clear your clutter and enjoy the unique magic of a tidy home—and the calm, motivated mindset it can inspire.

  Winning - The Racing Life of...

  Winner of International Automotive Media Gold Award 2010 For all his fame as one of Hollywood’s great actors, a world-class humanitarian, and the proprietor of a natural food empire, the late Paul Newman had another intriguing facet that was less known and perhaps closer to his heart than all the rest of his well-chronicled life.  He was an avid, successful and well respected car racer and team owner.  This book tells that story--from Newman’s racing career, begun in earnest at an age when many race car drivers contemplate retirement; to the partnership he formed in 1983 with Chicago racing entrepreneur and team owner Carl Haas; to the impressive stable of automobiles he owned, from the Porsches and Ferraris to quirkier modified VWs and Volvos.  This is the tale of a life full of passion and skill, of someone who entered the 24 Hours of Daytona at the age of 70 and made his last professional race outing at 82; whose roster of drivers for Newman/Hass reads as a who’s who of open wheel racing; and whose interest in cars extended from the likely suspects to old trucks and new hybrids.  And then there’s the charming pal who, when the incorrigible prankster Robert Redford had a miserably wrecked Ferrari dropped at his front door, returned the favor by having the car, crushed into a cube, delivered to Redford’s living room.  The anecdotes, the races, the cars--all are here, adding up to what for many would be a full life, but for Paul Newman was simply another side of a man of talent, conviction, and enduring spirit.

  How well do you know your '80s movies? Could you recognise a film from just one famous line?  
  In this fantastically fun quiz, host Kent Harris will put your knowledge of the decade’s greatest films to the test, to get ready to start guessing!  
  The quiz features two different methods of questioning, so you can choose whichever method suits you best. The first set of tracks feature Kent quoting you 10 famous lines at a time, then revealing the 10 movies they are from.  
  The second set of tracks for this audiobook feature the same questions, and in the same groups of 10, but this time revealing the answer a few seconds after giving you each quote. This is a great way to play as a group—you can even pause the track if you need more time to think.  
  If you want to hear 10 questions at a time, then start from the beginning; for the tracks in which the answers follow each question one-by-one, you should listen to the introduction then skip to track 27. Whichever format you choose for this quiz, it’s sure to be a lot of fun!
