Futni születtünk
„Elolvasod, és már futnál is." - OUTSIDE MAGAZIN
Egy rejtőzködő indián törzs, néhány szuperatléta és minden idők legnagyobb ultrafutó versenyének története.
Egy egyszerű kérdéssel kezdődött minden: Miért fáj a lábam? A válasz után kutatva Christopher McDougall elképesztően izgalmas emberekkel találkozott, és hihetetlen atlétikai teljesítményeknek volt szemtanúja. A rejtélyes Caballo Blanco közvetítésével megismerte a világ legfantasztikusabb ultrafutóit, a Mexikóban élő tarahumara indiánokat, és közelebbi kapcsolatba kerülve velük rádöbbent, hogy mindaz, amit a nyugati világ a futásról tud, téveszméken nyugszik.
McDougall útja a Harvard high-tech laboratóriumaiból Észak-Amerika napsütötte völgyein és hófödte csúcsain át vezetett a Réz-kanyonba. Elbeszélésmódja egyszerre személyes és tudományos; az egyéni sorsok pontos és empatikus leírása mellett ismerteti a tudomány aktuális állását is az emberi fiziológiáról, táplálkozásról, az evolúcióról.
A Futni születtünk nem csupán a szellemünket mozgatja meg, hanem a testünket is arra ösztönzi, hogy tegyük próbára a lábunkat, és lássuk be: mindannyian futni születtünk.
Chirstopher McDougall újságíró, hosszútávfutó, korábban az Associated Press haditudósítója volt, jelenleg pedig a Men's Health magazin szerkesztője és szerzője. Háromszor jelölték szakmai díjra folyóirat kategóriában és szavazták be a döntőbe; dolgozott az Esquire-nak és a The New York Times Magazine-nek, Girl Trouble című önálló kötete pedig a The Times számára készült tudósításain alapul.

Objevy
Vůbec první Magazín MF DNES vyšel v září 1993 a hned v prvním čísle byla také rubrika Objev dnes. Za vznikem rubriky stál novinář Martin Komárek, mistrovskými příspěvky ji rozvíjel Ladislav „Denis“ Verecký. Od července roku 2010 se ostře řezaného objevitelského pera ujímá i Jakub Kohák. „Mám satirické šlehy rád, ať už psané nebo kreslené. Kohákův text je satira formou i obsahem a jako taková mi vůbec nevadí, právě naopak – bylo by mi bez nich smutno,“ říká k úrovni Kohákových textů politik Miroslav Kalousek. Občas se najdou čtenáři, kteří sem tam obsah Objevu vážně vezmou a pak píší nactiutrhačné dopisy třeba senátoru Škromachovi. Ten pak odpovídá: „Opět mi dorazilo několik mailů, kde mi lidé nadávají, a proto šiřte dál prosím tuto informaci: Je to novinářská kachna nebo nějaká rubrika pro pobavení čtenářů“.

Lacná kniha Od toho chlapa ruky preč! (-25%)
Malý čierny blog veľkých varovných signálov
Vyhnite sa ďalšej vzťahovej katastrofe
Žiadny chlap nie je stopercentný, ale od niektorých radšej ruky preč! Mnohým divokým žrebcom ide len o jedno – dostať vás do postele a v záujme radovánok sú schopní majstrovských pretvárok. Ďalší skáču zo vzťahu do vzťahu alebo sa nevedia odstrihnúť od predchádzajúcej partnerky. Pozor aj na lakomcov, čo počítajú každý cent a tých, čo s každou sprostosťou volajú mamičke.
Chlapi, s ktorými si radšej nezačínajte!
Jednoducho, nájsť toho správneho chlapa býva riadna fuška. A keď už si myslíte, že je to ten pravý, s ktorým chcete prežiť svoj život a splodiť deti, vykľuje sa z neho chrapúň, infantilný blbec alebo narcista zahľadený do seba.
Dobre si toho chlapa preklepnite, aby vám nezostali iba oči pre plač. Mamičkin maznáčik, nemehlo, surovec, panovačný hlupák, večný donchuan či kalerábista, ktorý vás iba vodí za nos. Konečne sú tu skvelé tipy Od toho chlapa ruky preč, ktoré vám síce neposkytnú návod, ako nájsť pána dokonalého, ale po jeho prečítaní sa budete na mužov pozerať bez ružových okuliarov a dobre si rozmyslíte, či tie jeho malé nevinné chybičky nie sú náhodou predzvesťou katastrofy.
Ako sa vyhnúť katastrofe vo vzťahu?
Dalo sa tomu predísť? Všímali ste si varovné signály, ktoré by vás včas upozornili – od toho chlapa ruky preč?! Možno ste drobné žiarlivostné scény považovali za milé a lichotivé. Alebo ste si príliš neskoro uvedomili, že vás vlastne nepredstavil svojim priateľom a doma má podľa abecedy uložené ešte aj konzervy. Alebo si podozrivo často holil celé telo a po sexe sa správal akosi zvláštne.
Táto fascinujúca kniha pomôže predísť mnohým premárneným mesiacom. Nájdete v nej 200 varovných signálov v správaní mužov, ktoré by ste za žiadnych okolností nemali ignorovať.
Autorky populárneho amerického blogu The Little Black Blog of Big Red Flags (Malý čierny blog veľkých varovných signálov) spojili sily a svoj hit vydali knižne.

CALLAHAN
I'm the Kane brother everyone gossips about behind closed doors.
Trust fund brat. Washed-up athlete. High-functioning alcoholic.
No one know the real me but her. Lana Castillo - my childhood best friend and the only woman I ever loved.
When I broke her heart six years ago, I promised to never return to Lake Wisteria.
I kept my word until my grandfather's will changed everything.
To receive my inheritance, I was tasked with spending a summer at the family lake house before selling it.
The request was simple in theory, until my entire my plan blew up on the very first day.
Turns out Lana doesn't just live at the house, but she claims to own it too.
ALANA
Falling in love with Callahan Kane was a mistake.
He told me so before destroying my heart and our friendship six summers ago.
When he promised never to come back, I foolishly believed him.
But then Cal showed up again, intending to sell his grandfather's lake house.
The biggest flaw in his plan?
Check & Mate
In this clever and swoonworthy new novel from the New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis, life's moving pieces bring rival chess players together in a match for the heart. Mallory Greenleaf is done with chess. Every move counts nowadays; after the sport led to the destruction of her family four years earlier, Mallory's focus is on her mom, her sisters, and the dead-end job that keeps the lights on.
That is, until she begrudgingly agrees to play in one last charity tournament and inadvertently wipes the board with notorious 'Kingkiller' Nolan Sawyer: current world champion and reigning Bad Boy of chess. Nolan's loss to an unknown rookie shocks everyone. What's even more confusing? His desire to cross pawns again.
What kind of gambit is Nolan playing? The smart move would be to walk away. Resign. Game over.
But Mallory's victory opens the door to sorely needed cash-prizes and despite everything, she can't help feeling drawn to the enigmatic strategist... As she rockets up the ranks, Mallory struggles to keep her family safely separated from the game that wrecked it in the first place. And as her love for the sport she so desperately wanted to hate begins to rekindle, Mallory quickly realizes that the games aren't only on the board, the spotlight is brighter than she imagined, and the competition can be fierce (-ly attractive.
And intelligent... and infuriating...)This novel is suitable for both young adult and adult audiences.
Hidden Potential
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again illuminates how we can elevate ourselves and others to unexpected heights.
We live in a world that's obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distances we ourselves can travel. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn't knock, there are ways to build a door.
Hidden Potential offers a new framework for raising aspirations and exceeding expectations. Adam Grant weaves together groundbreaking evidence, surprising insights, and vivid story-telling that takes us from the classroom to the boardroom, the playground to the Olympics, and underground to outer space. He shows that progress depends less on how hard you work than how well you learn. Growth is not about the genius you possess - it's about the character you develop. Grant explores how to build the charac-ter skills and motivational structures to realize our own potential, and how to design systems that create opportunities for those who have been underrated and overlooked.
This book reveals how anyone can rise to achieve greater things. The true measure of your potential is not the height of the peak you've reached, but how far you've climbed to get there.
Lacná kniha Piačka (-25%)
Monografická publikácia venovaná tvorbe slovenského výtvarníka, ilustrátora, maliara, grafika a tvorcu poštových známok Igora Piačku.
Výpravná, bohato ilustrovaná publikácia mapuje tvorbu a život slovenského výtvarníka Igora Piačku (1962), pričom dôraz je na poslednej dekáde. Knižná ilustrácia, maľba, grafika, kresba, známková tvorba – to všetko sú záujmové oblasti autora, ktorý sa svojou tvorbou presadil aj v medzinárodnom kontexte a získal viacero ocenení. „Kresba je stále skeletom mojej tvorby, ale maľba je zase telom a farba krvou v cievach,“ hovorí v rozhovore Igor Piačka, čím vystihol podstatu svojej tvorby. Tento rozhovor, ale aj ďalšie texty známych osobností čitateľom približujú ústrednú ambíciu tvorby Igora Piačku – divácky zrozumiteľne a na vysokej výtvarnej úrovni predstaviť neutíchajúcu túžbu po tom, čo nám tak často chýba v súčasnom svete: estetiku ľudskej, najmä ženskej krásy. Autorská estetika je zdôraznená vysokým remeselným majstrovstvom, ktorá je umelcovi ako absolventovi legendárneho oddelenia prof. Albína Brunovského na VŠVU v Bratislave vlastná.
Monografia má potenciál okrem obdivovateľov slovenského výtvarného umenia a tvorby Igora Piačku osloviť všetkých milovníkov krásy.
Publikácia je dvojjazyčná – slovensko-anglická.

A monograph devoted to the creative work of Slovak artist, illustrator, painter, printmaker and postage stamp designer Igor Piačka.
This narrative and richly illustrated book maps the art and life of Igor Piačka (born 1962), with the stress on what he has done in the last decade. Illustrating books, painting, graphic prints, drawing, and designing stamps all interest a man whose work has brought him an international reputation and several major awards.
“Drawing is still the skeleton, the framework of my art, while painting is again the body and colour of the blood flowing through the veins,” captures Piačka in an interview the essence of his work. This conversation, and also other texts of well-known personalities in Slovakia’s art scene, provide readers with a closer look at the central ambition behind his art, presenting in a friendly and comprehendible way and yet at a high artistic level an unrelenting desire for what is so often lacking in the contemporary world – the aesthetics of human and especially feminine beauty. They are embodied in his own craftsmanship, developed in the crucible of Prof Albín Brunovský’s legendary department at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, from where Piačka graduated.
The monograph has the potential to appeal to those who enjoy beauty in art and additionally anybody that admires the fine art produced in Slovakia and from Igor Piačka.

Insomniacs After School, Vol. 1
Two sleepless teenagers find kinship as they escape to their school’s astronomy observatory.
Unable to sleep at night, Ganta Nakami is cranky in class and unpopular with his classmates. He discovers that the school observatory, once used by the now-defunct astronomy club, may be the perfect place for a nap—but he’s not alone. Fellow insomniac Isaki Magari is willing to share the observatory with Nakami, and a friendship between the two begins as they bond over the most unlikely of things.
Dark rumors about what befell the members of the astronomy club keep people away from the school observatory, and that’s what makes it the perfect sanctuary for Nakami and Magari to get some much-needed rest. Unfortunately, the school faculty can’t allow its unsanctioned use. But if there were a new astronomy club, maybe these two insomniacs could have a place to call home!

Marián Hossa: My Journey from Trenčín to the Hall of Fame
A Stanley Cup champion and modern legend of the game, in his own words
Marián Hossa’s life is a lesson in the value of determination and perseverance. Born into a hockey family that included his father, a former player and coach of the Slovakian national team, Marián and his brother, Marcel, quickly fell in love with the sport. Before long, they began to display the level of skill that could lead to a professional career. But the odds of reaching the NHL from Trenčín, a town of 50,000 people nestled among the mountains of Slovakia, remained long.
Determined to follow their dreams, the Hossas persevered and were each eventually drafted in the first round. After some outstanding years in Ottawa and Atlanta, Marián moved on to Pittsburgh in 2008, where he helped lead the Penguins to the Stanley Cup Final against Detroit, a series his team lost.
Prioritizing winning over dollars, Hossa signed with the Red Wings the following season, where he again reached the Final only to find heartbreak again, improbably against the team he had just left, the Penguins. It seemed that perhaps he would never raise Lord Stanley’s Cup above his head.
But Hossa persevered, refusing to give in. In 2009, he signed with the Chicago Blackhawks, and played a key role in the team’s dynastic run the following decade, winning championships in 2010, 2013, and 2015. Then, yet another obstacle appeared in his path: an unusual and debilitating skin condition that compelled him to retire years before he’d planned.
?
In this inspiring and entertaining autobiography, Hossa brings readers inside the dressing room, onto the celebratory team plane, and alongside one of hockey’s greatest stars as he makes the biggest decisions of his career.
Also featuring photos from Hossa's personal collection, this is an essential read for all hockey fans.

They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon! The prelude to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit has sold many millions of copies since its publication in 1937, establishing itself as one of the most beloved and influential books of the twentieth century.
I was not Born for Quiet
Thanks to Janko Kráľ, as John Minahane has written, the Váh is Slovakia’s most mystical river. Again and again the poet returns to his community via that flagship poem of Slovak romanticism, The Enchanted Maiden in the Váh and Odd Johnny. Characteristic in Kráľ’s poetry is his focus on the inward side of events and stories, turned inside out, since one has to turn one’s clothing inside out/ and leap in the middle of the Váh. By this means, metaphysical space is opened. There the spirit is so blended together with reality that it becomes possible to break the spell on the maiden (motherland) in the river Lethe, which is life’s inverted clepsydra. Time always freshly poses the question, which young man wants to give body to his thought. And what unwinds from that is not only a defiant faith in the mission of poetry, but also Janko Kráľ’s courage to stand up for the language and national rights of Slovaks in 1848. To give the time a face where our identity is mirrored.
To this day we do not know exactly how Janko Kráľ looked in reality. Using the surviving descriptions of Kráľ’s appearance, he therefore created a metaphysical portrait with the digital tool Metahuman Creator, which is designed for creating figures for video games. Subsequently he placed this virtual figure in a contemporary context, in the form of manipulated photographs from the mass media.
