Muži z Ringway 1.
Knees together, shoulders round, head bent down and watch the ground! (Kolena sevři, ramena vpřed, hlavu skloň a na zem hleď!)
Parašutistické zaklínadlo, které si na pokyn svých britských instruktorů na letišti Ringway u Manchesteru museli při každé příležitosti opakovat v letech 1941–1945 i čeští a slovenští vojáci.
Nedělej se sebe hrdinu po prvním seskoku, protože jím nejsi, a neříkej, že to nic není, protože to něco je... Jeden z nápisů na výsadkářské výcvikové základně Ringway v letech 2. světové války.
Na letišti na informační tabuli, byly vedle běžných instrukcí a zpráv i humorné poznámky na adresu mentality jednotlivých národů v souvislosti s paravýcvikem a především s prvním seskokem. Dočetli jste se tam různé většinou podařené vtipy o parašutistech anglických, židovským, polských, německých, francouzských či španělských. Samozřejmě, že jsem si ten vtip o našich mládencích snadno zapamatoval:
Skupina československých vojáků, vycvičená a oblečená, sedí v letícím letadle. Čeká ji první seskok. Anglický instruktor vyzve prvního, aby vyskočil. „After you,“ (Až po vás...), zní odpověď. Obrátí se proto na dalšího, ale dopadne to stejně. Instruktor je zoufalý, ale najednou ho něco napadne. Ukáže ven z letadla a zakřičí: „Hospoda!“ Všichni parašutisté se rychle vyhrnou z letadla...
Ze vzpomínek instruktora čs. parašutistů kpt. Antonína Petráka.
Historik a zkušený autor literatury faktu touto knihou, která se podrobně věnuje vývoji výcviku, bojového nasazení a osudům řady zajímavých postav, navazuje na jeho předchozí úspěšné tituly „Pátou kartu bere smrt“ a „Příběhy starých battledressů“. Text je doplněn vedle řady zajímavých fotografií a seznamem všech padlých, popravených a zemřelých parašutistů i dalšími dokumentárními přílohami, včetně přepisu všech radiodepeší vysílačky ANNA, která byla v dubnu a květnu 1945 v době příprav a bojů na pražských barikádách jediným spojením velení českých povstalců se zahraničím.
The Runaway Species
Our relentless drive to create makes us unique among living creatures. What is special about the human brain that enables us to innovate? Why don't cows choreograph dances? Why don't squirrels build elevators to their treetops? Why don't alligators invent speedboats?Weaving together the arts and sciences, neuroscientist David Eagleman and composer Anthony Brandt explore the need for novelty, the simulation of possible futures, and the social components that drive the inventiveness of our species. Taking us on a tour of human creativity from Picasso to concept cars to umbrellas to lunar travel, Brandt and Eagleman explore the cognitive software that generates new ideas, and illuminate the key facets of a creative mentality. Through understanding our ability to innovate - our most profound, mysterious, and deeply human capacity - we can meet the challenge of remaking our constantly shifting world.

Runway Bird
Top model and musician Irina Lazareanu decrypts the essence of rock 'n' roll chic, taking cues from her coterie of friends from the fashion and music worlds.
If you could saunter down the runway and slip backstage on the heels of Irina Lazareanu, who would you meet, what antics would ensue, and what on earth would you wear? Irina--Karl Lagerfeld's muse, Kate Moss's BFF, and Pete Dougherty's former fiancée--introduces you to her inner circle--models, fashion designers, editors, Hollywood starlets, and rockers--to pilfer the secrets of their individually cool and universally coveted rock 'n' roll style.
She shares fashion tips from her fellow runway birds and offers insight from her work with designers including Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs, and Nicolas Ghesqui?re, as well as with fashion professionals like Edward Enninful and Inez & Vinoodh. Irina includes killer looks from friends such as Sean Lennon, Yoko Ono, Hedi Slimane, Lindsay Lohan, Mark Ronson, and the late Amy Winehouse.
She details a host of wardrobe tips and essentials, including dos and don'ts for creating your own folk, retro, punk, or glam rock look. In scrapbook collages and lively anecdotes from her life on the fashion and concert circuits, the captivating Romanian-Canadian top model and singer shares showstopping sartorial nuggets that will give your threads--and attitude--a rock 'n' roll edge.
