Beauty and Two Beasts
Experience the world’s most enchanting and timeless love story—retold with a romantic MMF twist.
BELLE
Belle’s father always taught her to be smart, independent and fearless. It’s no wonder she became an outcast in her small, French village. Belle doesn’t regret making love with her new fiancé. But when the entire town finds out, and tragedy strikes, it only makes Belle’s situation worse. Now dreaming only of leaving her closed-minded town, Belle’s father makes her a promise. “When I return, we’ll move to the city,” he says. But what would Belle do if he didn’t return? How would her neighbors treat her with her father not around? CAPTAIN BERNARDThere is no one in town who doesn’t love Captain Bernard. That is, no one except Belle. Sure, he’s built, good-looking and powerful. But he is also full of himself and has gained the nickname ‘The Animal’ for his behavior on the battlefield. But is there more to the Captain than meets the eye? Could his animalistic drive come from the pain of a long lost love? Is his love for Belle real? And when Belle’s father disappears while on a trip to the city, will Captain Bernard be the one to come to Belle’s rescue? THE BEAST Deep in the Dark Forest is an enchanted castle. In it lives a beast. With curling horns and jagged fangs, there is no one who could ever love such a creature. Unfortunately, love is the only thing that could break the castle’s curse. The Beast isn’t all bad, however. Seeing a man being chased by wolves, the Beast gives him refuge in his castle. But when the man steals an enchanted rose as he leaves, the enraged Beast locks him up. Will the Beast allow the man’s beautiful daughter to take his place? Could she be the one to break the curse? And will the Beast’s heartbreaking secret change the way this classic tale ends? With steamy encounters, a gorgeous Prince who visits Belle at night, and unexpected twists and turns, ‘Beauty and Two Beasts’ is a tantalizing retelling of a classic fairy tale that you will never forget. ‘Beauty and Two Beasts’ is a very steamy, ultra-high heat standalone bisexual menage romance with explicit MF, MM, MFM and MMF scenes. Contains a not-to-be-missed HEA ending!

Where the Deer and the Antelope Play
Going back to his literal roots, Nick Offerman takes a journey to America's frontier to celebrate the people and stories, both historically and today, that have made it great - and, working together, will keep it that way. Nick Offerman has always loved the United States of America - not just the people and the history, but the actual land itself. In his new book, Nick takes a humorous, inspiring, and fascinating trip to America's frontier to celebrate the people, landscape, and stories, both historically and today, that have made it great - and, working together, will keep it that way. In July 2019, Nick took a hiking trip to Glacier National Park with his friends Jeff Tweedy and George Saunders. The trip, and the conversations between the three men, began a study and exploration of both the American West and our National Parks that addresses so many of the important issues that affect America today. This book both maps out the group's travels and dives deeply into subjects such as: the history and geology of the National Parks of the West; farming, animal life, and conservation; the importance of outdoor recreation, including hunting and fishing; and building both local and national communities across party lines - all subjects very close to Nick's heart. With wit, heartwarming stories, and a keen insight into new and exciting ways to see both the past and the future of the country, Nick Offerman is ready to tackle his most important subject yet.
The Room Where It Happened - A White House Memoir
As President Trump's National Security Advisor, John Bolton spent many of his 453 days in the room where it happened, and the facts speak for themselves.
The result is a White House memoir that is the most comprehensive and substantial account of the Trump Administration, and one of the few to date by a top-level official. With almost daily access to the President, John Bolton has produced a precise rendering of his days in and around the Oval Office. What Bolton saw astonished him: a President for whom getting reelected was the only thing that mattered, even if it meant endangering or weakening the nation. "I am hard-pressed to identify any significant Trump decision during my tenure that wasn't driven by reelection calculations," he writes. In fact, he argues that the House committed impeachment malpractice by keeping their prosecution focused narrowly on Ukraine when Trump's Ukraine-like transgressions existed across the full range of his foreign policy-and Bolton documents exactly what those were, and attempts by him and others in the Administration to raise alarms about them.
He shows a President addicted to chaos, who embraced our enemies and spurned our friends, and was deeply suspicious of his own government. In Bolton's telling, all this helped put Trump on the bizarre road to impeachment. "The differences between this presidency and previous ones I had served were stunning," writes Bolton, who worked for Reagan, Bush 41, and Bush 43. He discovered a President who thought foreign policy is like closing a real estate deal-about personal relationships, made-for-TV showmanship, and advancing his own interests. As a result, the US lost an opportunity to confront its deepening threats, and in cases like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea ended up in a more vulnerable place.
Bolton's account starts with his long march to the West Wing as Trump and others woo him for the National Security job. The minute he lands, he has to deal with Syria's chemical attack on the city of Douma, and the crises after that never stop. As he writes in the opening pages, "If you don't like turmoil, uncertainty, and risk-all the while being constantly overwhelmed with information, decisions to be made, and sheer amount of work-and enlivened by international and domestic personality and ego conflicts beyond description, try something else."
The turmoil, conflicts, and egos are all there-from the upheaval in Venezuela, to the erratic and manipulative moves of North Korea's Kim Jong Un, to the showdowns at the G7 summits, the calculated warmongering by Iran, the crazy plan to bring the Taliban to Camp David, and the placating of an authoritarian China that ultimately exposed the world to its lethal lies. But this seasoned public servant also has a great eye for the Washington inside game, and his story is full of wit and wry humor about how he saw it played.

Redman Joshua - Where Are We 2LP
Joshua Redman sa narodil v Berkeley v Kalifornii jazzovému saxofonistovi Deweymu Redmanovi a tanečnici a knihovníčke Renee Shedroff. V Centre for World Music v Berkeley, kde jeho matka študovala juhoindický tanec, bol vystavený mnohým druhom hudby. Niektoré z jeho prvých lekcií hudby a improvizácie boli na zobcovej flaute s hráčom gamelanu Jody Diamondom. Už v ranom veku bol vystavený rôznym hudbám a nástrojom a v deviatich rokoch začal hrať na klarinet a o rok neskôr prešiel na to, čo sa stalo jeho primárnym nástrojom, tenor saxofón. Redman cituje Johna Coltranea, Ornette Colemana, Cannonball Adderleyho, jeho otca Deweyho Redmana, ako aj Beatles, Arethu Franklin, The Temptations, Earth, Wind and Fire, Prince, The Police a Led Zeppelin ako hudobné vplyvy.
Joshua Redman debutuje na Blue Note s jeho vôbec prvým vokálnym projektom, v ktorom účinkujú vokalistka Gabrielle Cavassa, klavirista Aaron Parks, basgitarista Joe Sanders a bubeník Brian Blade plus špeciálni hostia Nicholas Payton na trúbke a Kurt Rosenwinkel na gitare, Peter Bernstein na gitare a Joel Ross na vibrafóne. Vo svojom jadre je album oslavou aj kritikou Ameriky – každá skladba je o konkrétnej geografickej polohe v Spojených štátoch – ale v rôznej miere je to aj album balád, štandardný album, album romantickej túžby, album sociálnej reflexie, album melodickej invencie a album improvizačného dobrodružstva.

Keep Calm and Zomri
Tvárime sa ako drsňáci na internete, ale v skutočnosti sme rozmaznaní synáčikovia, ktorí sa dojmú pri každej somarine. Vytáčajú nás idioti, chrapúni a prakokoti. Bez nich by tu bolo lepšie, ale naše fungovanie by nedávalo zmysel. A to je paradoxne presne to, čo chceme dosiahnuť a čoho sa chceme dožiť. Aby tu raz bolo tak dobre, že by Zomri mohlo v pokoji zomrieť. Momentálne však Zomri žije možno viac, ako by sme si to všetci priali. A s vašou podporou ešte aj dlho bude.
Už takmer tri desiatky rokov existuje slovenská spoločnosť v nejakom zvláštnom medzisvete a nevie sa úplne rozhodnúť, kam chce patriť.
Ľudia boli od konca štyridsiatych rokov 20. storočia zvyknutí, že sa o nich stará niekto iný a že do vecí okolo seba vlastne nemajú ako zasiahnuť. Po prevrate prišiel prúser. Na jednej strane stáli nadšenci a idealisti, ktorí z tejto krajiny chceli urobiť modernú spoločnosť založenú na demokratických základoch, a na opačnej hajzli, ktorí svojimi demagógiami ťahajú ľudí do stredoveku. Tento boj dodnes nielen že pretrváva, je silnejší ako kedykoľvek predtým. Moc ovládajú populisti, v parlamente sedia nacisti. Demokratická opozícia je v absolútnom rozvrate, raz sa prikláňa na stranu populistov, inokedy slabučko hryzne.
V stave tohto marazmu vzniklo Zomri úplne spontánne. Pôvodne sme boli jednoduchá facebooková stránka, ktorá uverejňovala vtipy a upozorňovala na prešľapy.
Teraz sme však už miestom, kam sa ľudia chodia uvoľniť po dni naplnenom politikmi, ktorí dennodenne serú na hlavy celej verejnosti. Keď sa vám z paláca vládnej strany smejú do ksichtu a potom idú prespať k usvedčeným zločincom, keď občianske slobody označujú za ohrozenie štátu a kriminálka vyšetruje študentov organizujúcich protesty tak viete, že ste sa za tých tridsať rokov posunuli viac dozadu, ako dopredu.
My na to odpovede nemáme. Snažíme sa len tieto šialenstvá priniesť čo najširšej verejnosti v jazyku, ktorý máme všetci spoločný a zakorenený niekde v hlbinách našich duší. V jazyku humoru, dôvtipu a vulgarity.
Zomri je občianska sebaobrana.

here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of
friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill"

"It works beautifully... please don't
make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
At the end of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald was captured in New York with the help of Newt Scamander. But, making good on his threat, Grindelwald escapes custody and sets about gathering followers, most unsuspecting of his true agenda: to raise pure-blood wizards up to rule over all non-magical beings. In an effort to thwart Grindelwald's plans, Albus Dumbledore enlists Newt, his former Hogwarts student, who agrees to help once again, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead.
Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world. This second original screenplay from J.K. Rowling, illustrated with stunning line art from MinaLima, expands on earlier events that helped shaped the wizarding world, with some surprising nods to the Harry Potter stories that will delight fans of both the books and films.

Beloved Beasts
In the late nineteenth century, humans came at long last to a devastating realisation: their rapidly industrialising and globalising societies were driving scores of animal species to extinction. In Beloved Beasts, acclaimed science journalist Michelle Nijhuis traces the history of the movement to protect and conserve other forms of life. From early battles to save charismatic species such as the American bison and bald eagle to today's global effort to defend life on a larger scale, Nijhuis's "spirited and engaging" account documents "the changes of heart that changed history" (Dan Cryer, Boston Globe).
With "urgency, passion, and wit" (Michael Berry, Christian Science Monitor), she describes the vital role of scientists and activists such as Aldo Leopold and Rachel Carson, reveals the origins of vital organisations like the Audubon Society and the World Wildlife Fund, explores current efforts to protect species such as the whooping crane and the black rhinoceros and confronts the darker side of modern conservation, long shadowed by racism and colonialism.
As the destruction of other species continues and the effects of climate change wreak havoc on our world, Beloved Beasts charts the ways conservation is becoming a movement for the protection of all species including our own.
