  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  Drift into sleep with eleven UFO chase stories featuring car pursuits and frightening confrontations where craft and beings actively followed and pursued startled witnesses. These accounts capture the more aggressive and persistent aspects of the phenomenon, where observers found themselves pursued relentlessly rather than merely witnessing events passively. Experience being smacked physically by an alien in an encounter that turned unexpectedly violent, and the terror of being followed by a UFO that simply would not give up the chase no matter how fast the witness drove. Discover the unsettling invitation to come aboard that witnesses wisely and instinctively declined, and silver UFOs with prongs that seemed designed for purposes unknown and possibly sinister. These stories include alien couples suggesting these beings have relationships and travel together, UFOs that somehow opened sealed car windows from outside, and beings at beaches where vacationers expected only peaceful relaxation. From alien footprints left behind as physical evidence to beings who claimed they come from very far away when questioned, each account involves pursuit or direct confrontation. Witnesses petrified with fright who could not move, and aliens who followed people all the way home, complete this collection of intense encounters with soothing narration.

  At his seventieth birthday party, Mark Twain delivered this delightful retrospective of his life. He dished out sarcastic advice on how he’d made it so far, discussing diet, sleep, cigars, alcohol, and exercise, among other topics. In the end, he said, “I am seventy; seventy, and would nestle in the chimney-corner, and smoke my pipe, and read my book, and take my rest, wishing you well in all affection.” He died three years later.

  Cosa Nostra: The Notorious...

  Charles River Editors

  Over the course of the 19th century, the people of Sicily found themselves at the center of a struggle for freedom, one that ended up being long and often very bloody. It was during these crucial years of struggle that the Sicilian mafia, La cosa nostra (“Our thing”), started to take shape. The original word “mafia” was a part of Palermitan slang, and although the origins of the word are not completely certain, some linguistic historians believe it originally meant “flashy.” One historian of the mafia, Salvatore Lupo, helpfully suggests that it was used in its earliest iterations to vaguely refer to a “pathological relationship among politics, society and criminality.” 
  In response to the rise of the mafia, the Italian state propagated a doctrine of Sicilian backwardness, which they used to introduce martial law and suspend civil liberties, under the pretext that they were not “ready” for the freedoms enjoyed by other Italian regions.[6] Northerners and foreigners mistakenly (and snobbishly) believed that the mafia was just a relic of the primitive, peasant culture that had dominated the island for centuries, and that it was destined to die out once the island had been properly absorbed into the dominant, mainland culture. Others hypothesized that the corruption in Sicilian culture was just a holdover from the Bourbon government and would soon be extinguished once a formal transition was completed. 
  Of course, they proved to be dead wrong. The Sicilian mafia was not a criminal underworld or a form of political rebellion, but more of a kingdom within a kingdom. In other words, according to historians of the mafia, it was a network of hidden power, an alternative hierarchy that sometimes worked in concert with and sometimes superseded official forms of law and order.
