Fifty Years Hence, or What May Be in 1943
"Fifty Years Hence" is a quasi-fictional work by Robert Grimshaw, a professional engineer, with the intent of making a serious prediction of America's technological future, using engineering knowledge from his time in 1892.The fictional narrator is 21-year-old Francis Ainsworth. At the Masonic Lodge in New York City, Francis hears a fascinating lecture, based in Masonic mysticism, by one Roger Brathwaite. Francis befriends Brathwaite, who shares some of his future-prediction methods based on graphical engineering, and a lends him a manuscript predicting conditions in America in 50 years. However, before the friendship can flower, Brathwaite is mysteriously killed in a fire at his home, which also destroys his lifetime’s worth of records and predictive methods. All that Francis has left is the borrowed manuscript, which is reproduced in the novel.Some predictions, by 1943: a new phonetic language would be designed by philologists and spoken everywhere in the world (see Esperanto); typewriting machines would be ubiquitous and would communicate instantly across the world; all "books of record" would be written on machine only; telegraphs and facsimile documents would be transmitted by wire or wirelessly and would include color pictures; wireless telegraph and telephone with ships at sea and connecting all cities in the world; seamless concrete homes; water & gas & electricity utilities; electric street lighting; working from home by communication at great distances; doubling of average life span by medical improvements; hydroelectric, tidal, and windmill electricity generation with storage; lightweight batteries powering electric vehicles; large-scale electric welding; all-steel ships with welded, leak-proof structure; manufacture of industrial diamonds; aluminum railroad cars; cloud-seeding to make rain; government-guarantee of bank deposits; uniform laws on divorce; women's right to vote; executions by gas chamber; and more.As a side note, Robert Grimshaw dedicated the book to his children, "Who may perchance, fifty years hence, compare these prophecies with what has then come about." He apparently lived long enough (to at least 1940) to make the comparison for himself.Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from Duke University Libraries. Edited by Stanley Sokolow.

Lacná kniha Grey: Fifty Shades of Grey as told by Christian (-70%)
In Christian’s own words, and through his thoughts, reflections, and dreams, E L James offers a fresh perspective on the love story that has enthralled millions of reader around the world. CHRISTIAN GREY exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty – until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. He tries to forget her, but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him – past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart. Will being with Ana dispel the horrors of his childhood that haunt Christian every night? Or will his dark sexual desires, his compulsion to control, and the self-loathing that fills his soul drive this girl away and destroy the fragile hope she offers him?

Fifty Words for Snow
Snow. Every language has its own words for the magical, mesmerising flakes that fall from the sky. In this exquisite exploration, writer and Arctic traveller Nancy Campbell digs deep into the meanings of fifty words for snow.
In Japanese we encounter yuki-onna - a 'snow woman' who drifts through the frosted land. In Icelandic it is hundslappadrifa - 'snowflakes as big as a dog's paw' - that softly blanket the streets. And in Maori we meet Huka-rere - 'one of the children of rain and wind'.
From mountain tops and frozen seas to city parks and desert hills, each of these linguistic snow crystals offers a whole world of myth and story - the perfect winter gift.

Can Christian finally be freed?

Sarajevská princezna
V létě 1993 celý svět napjatě sledoval osud malého děvčete, které BBC pojmenovalo „Sarajevská princezna". Pětiletá Irma Hadžimuratović byla těžce zraněna během bombardování Sarajeva. Děvče bylo převezeno do nemocnice a dostalo se do rukou mladého chirurga, Edy Jaganjace, který bojoval ze všech sil o jeho přežití. Nejostřejší bitvu ale svedl s neochotou nezainteresovaných, někdy až zlomyslných byrokratů a mezinárodních úředníků, takzvaných mírových sil. Edo Jaganjac napsal svědectví, které se každému čtenáři navždy vryje do paměti. Ilegální transport zraněných pod nepřetržitou palbou, až neuvěřitelné výkony v sotva použitelných operačních sálech, pokrytecké chování mezinárodních úředníků, prohlubování přátelských i profesionálních vztahů mezi znaveným, ale neskonale ochotným personálem nemocnice... To vše je součástí krvavé sarajevské pohádky, upřímné a srdcervoucí výpovědi člověka, který s klidnou rukou a otřeseným srdcem bojoval proti donquichotským větrným mlýnům, bojoval pro dobro, za humánní cíl, který je hodnotnější než jakýkoli vojenský, za záchranu lidského života...

Video/Art: The First Fifty Years
Since the introduction of portable consumer electronics nearly a half century ago, artists throughout the world have adapted their latest technologies to art-making. This first-hand account by the curator who has been following video art from its beginnings in the late 1960s, when artists first adapted portable consumer technology to art-making, spotlights video's ongoing importance in the art world, tracing the genre's development alongside the advances in technology that have continued to open up new possibilities for artists. London has worked closely and personally with the artists she writes about, who span generations, including Joan Jonas, Nam June Paik, Bill Viola, Shirin Neshat, Pipilotti Rist, Miranda July, Ragnar Kjartansson, and Ian Cheng. The text is both art-historical and personal - weaving together background information and insightful interpretations with unique anecdotes and experiences to trace the history of video art as it transformed into the broader field of media art - from analog to digital, small TV monitors to wall-scale projections, and clunky hardware to user-friendly software. In doing this, she reveals how video evolved from fringe status to be seen as one of the foremost art forms of today.
