  A devious speakeasy owner. A crooked undertaker. A cunning bartender. A psychotic cabbie. A hapless greengrocer. A notorious thug.
  And one Irishman who came to be known as 'Iron Mike'.
  Set around New York's Prohibition-era speakeasy scene in the 1930s in what became known as 'the most grotesque chain of events in New York criminal history', The Many Murders of Michael Malloy is the tragic true story of six low-rent, desperate and extraordinarily incompetent murderers and one lonely Irish emigrant of exceptional fortitude and resilience.
  Poisoned, frozen, knocked down twice – Malloy survived it all, until he didn't.
  This is the utterly compelling, stranger-than-fiction story of the most infamous Irish murder you've never heard of.

  Why our workplaces are authoritarian private governments—and why we can't see it 
   
   
   
  One in four American workers says their workplace is a "dictatorship." Yet that number almost certainly would be higher if we recognized employers for what they are—private governments with sweeping authoritarian power over our lives. Many employers minutely regulate workers' speech, clothing, and manners on the job, and employers often extend their authority to the off-duty lives of workers, who can be fired for their political speech, recreational activities, diet, and almost anything else employers care to govern. In this compelling book, Elizabeth Anderson examines why, despite all this, we continue to talk as if free markets make workers free, and she proposes a better way to think about the workplace, opening up space for discovering how workers can enjoy real freedom.

  Darwin longgrassers have been living large since the beginning. They come from all over the Territory to camp in the public spaces around town, to catch up with family and friends, attend health and legal matters, holiday and shop, and drink. Especially drink. And the whitefellas don’t like it. They think they’re noisy and dirty and rude. So, they try to move them on. 
  For 150 years they’ve been trying to move them on. But the longgrassers won’t go. Yet beneath this running battle between the settled and the free lurks an undeniable truth about colonisation that is almost Newtonian in style. This is a story of resilience and denial against outrageous odds, an underdog’s triumph of survival in the modern world, for a people who just refuse to give in

  Rule of Tupac Inca by Pedro...

  Only 40 years after the Spanish arrival in Cusco, Peru, Pedro Sarmiento de Gamboa  (1532–1592) was commissioned in 1572 by Francisco de Toledo, the fifth Viceroy of Peru, to write a history of the Incas. Toledo intended this history to justify Spanish colonization by documenting the violent and tyrannical nature of the Inca rulers. Sarmiento gathered information through extensive interviews with indigenous informants, former Incan nobles, local leaders, and surviving Spanish conquistadors. To ensure accuracy, his manuscript was read and reviewed by 42 indigenous authorities before publication. 
  This audiobook presents a reading of Sarmiento de Gamboa’s chapter on one of the most influential and formidable Inca emperors: Túpac Inca Yupanqui, the tenth Sapa Inca. Like his father Pachacuti and his son Huayna Capac, Túpac Inca expanded the Inca Empire, bringing under Inca control the territories of much of present-day Peru, Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador, Argentina, and beyond. He also lived to an advanced age and fathered nearly one hundred children. 
  The narrator is Michael Henrik Wynn, editor of the educational net radio stream historyradio.org.
