SAS - The Illustrated History of the SAS
The authorised illustrated history of the SAS by the number one bestselling author of Dunkirk, Joshua Levine. With never-before-seen photographs and unheard stories, this is the SAS’s wartime history in vivid and astonishing detail.
The SAS began as a lie, a story of a British parachute unit in the North African desert, to convince the Axis they were under imminent threat. The lie was so effective that soon a small band of men were brought together to make it real. These recruits were the toughest and brightest of their cohort, the most resilient, most dynamic and most self-sufficient. Their first commanders, David Stirling and Paddy Mayne, would go down in history as unorthodox visionaries. Yet this book tells much more than the usual origin story of the unit and seeks out less well-known leaders like Bill Fraser, who was essential in helping the SAS achieve fame for their devastating raids. By looking beyond the myth, this book brings back to life a group of men who showed immense bravery and endured unimaginable risks behind enemy lines.
Written with the full cooperation of the SAS and with exclusive access to SAS archives, Levine draws on individual stories and personal testimony, including interviews with veterans and family members. On every page, the book gives a visceral sense of what it was like to fight and train in the SAS in both North Africa and Europe during the Second World War, focusing on their failures as well as their successes.
This book is vivid with the characters of the men, their eclectic personalities, their strengths, weaknesses and many disagreements. Levine has uncovered a remarkable portrait of this enigmatic unit with photographs and stories long thought lost to history.

The Fellowship of the Ring
Continuing the story begun in The Hobbit, this is the first part of Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, featuring a striking black cover based on Tolkien's own design, the definitive text, and a detailed map of Middle-earth. Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power -- the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring -- the ring that rules them all -- which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose. Now published again in B format, J.R.R. Tolkien's great work of imaginative fiction has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic fantasy fiction. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world which is totally convincing in its detail.
The day the country died
Anglie je kolébka punku a právě historii punku v letech osmdesáté v zemi zaslíbené se věnuje tato kniha. Její autor aktivně působil ve scéně v jejích zlatých časech a pomocí spousty jiných veteránů se mu podařilo vytvořit skvěle čtivou směsku která mapuje anglickou anarchopunk scénu a kapely jako Crass, Conflict, Zounds, Subhumans a mnoho jiných. Nechybí doporučené diskografie a fotografie.

Cesta k pólu A Journey to the Pole Kora Kailash DVD
„Fascinující osobitý dokument, výborné spojení obrazu a zvuku…..., některé zvukové momenty se vsákly do obrazu natolik, že jejich výsledná kombinace na mne v určitých chvílích působila až hypnoticky! Je to dobrodružství, které vás určitě vtáhne a pohltí!“ řekl po shlédnutí filmu Shiva Dhakal , ředitel královské horolezecko- trekingové společnosti RMT v Káthmandú (Nepál). DVD ´CESTA – Journey´ vzniklo jako další realizační výstup projektu „Z PÓLU NA PÓL“, jehož zakladatelem je Oldřich Bubák. Ten je zároveň kameramanem i producentem tohoto filmu. (Pozn. Oldřich Bubák je prvním Čechem, který došel na severní pól {1996} a jižní pól {1999} pěšky na lyžích) DVD – Journey´ je uspořádáno do dvou částí. První, s názvem ´CESTA K PÓLU´, je cestou autora k jižnímu pólu v Antarktidě, tedy ke geografickému pólu. Druhá, s názvem ´KORA KAILASH´, je cestou autora k duchovnímu pólu, k nejposvátnější hoře světa - Mt. Kailash, ležící v západním Tibetu . Oba filmy bez použití komentáře, doprovázené velmi citlivě zkomponovanou hudbou, jsou v souladu s ní členěné do jednoduchých ´vět´, mající svůj logický a emotivní smysl; mimořádná, fascinující bohatost obrazu jde jakoby proti hudbě a činí z filmu podmanivou podívanou. DVD je ve dvou jazykových mutacích a je doplněno o bonusy v podobě rozhovorů a osobních vyjádření aktérů včetně fotogalerie - výběru unikátních barevných fotografií z mnoha expedic Oldřich Bubáka do Antarktidy a do Tibetu. DVD “CESTA – Journey“ lze doporučit jako zcela mimořádný zážitek všem náročným divákům.

Objeví se na ní Nas, Phife Dawg, CL, Ali Shaheed Muhammed, Posdenuos of de la Soul, Slick Rick a Nicol Scherzinger. Jedná se o sedmou desku, jejíž vydání předznamenal skladba Big Love, který jako jeden z prvních singlů reflektoval střelbu na amerických středních školách a věnoval se problematice odebírání dětí imigrantským rodinám. Výnosy z prodeje singlu putovaly na účet studentské aktivistické organizace March for Our Lives, která se zabývá ukončením epidemie masových střeleb na školách a organizace Families Belong Together, která bojuje proti Trumpově politice násilné separace rodin. Ve vyzývání statu quo Black Eyed Peas pokračují i na desce, kde se dále věnují aktuálním problémům černošských komunit, jakými je například kontrola zbraní, imigrační a vězeňská reforma a policejní brutalita.
Black Eyed Peas jsou uskupením, které se v průběhu své existence věnovalo hip hopu, popu, dance music i elektro žánru. Kapela se momentálně skládá z will.i.ama, apl.de.apa a Tabooa. V minulosti v kapele působila i zpěvačka Fergie. Black Eyed Peas stojí za hity, jako je Where Is The Love?, který se stal nejprodávanějším britským singlem roku 2003, nebo Pump It a se singly Boom Boom Pow a I Gotta Feeling se ve své době stali jednou z jedenácti kapel, které se podařilo obsadit první dvě příčky Billboard Hot 100 zároveň.
