Double Wish is the Orange County, CA-based dark-sunshine-pop project of Adam Sabolick and Philippe Andre. Since 2020, Double Wish has performed across California and released three EPs; their debut Light Split Sparkle, came out in 2023 via Hit the North Records. Follow-ups, Universe Sometimes (2024) and Deeper Ecstasy (2025) lead into their upcoming 10-track self-titled debut album.

KINETIK SPRINGBOX 2 144 2024 inkl. DIPLOMAT EXP Boots - 38-39 Ein schneller Rocker, tiefe Kanäle und ein Board, das schneller in seine ursprüngliche Form zurückkehren möchte.Dieses Kinetik Project verfügt über einen traditionellen Mittelteil und besonders biegsame Enden für ein sichereres Gefühl bei Presses und beim Abprallen daraus. Bei Kabelboards benötigst du Hebelpunkte, an denen ein bestimmter Teil des Boards zusammengedrückt wird, bis der Drehpunkt einrastet und zurückschnappt. Diese Serie erreicht dies, indem sie es einem Fahrer ermöglicht, seine Presses mit den sanftesten Flex-Werten im Tip/Tail-Bereich zu übertreiben - aber wenn die Presses einen größeren Winkel gewinnen, verhindert die Mitte des Boards, dass das Board überklappt. Ein Design mit weniger Rocker für unbegrenzte Höchstgeschwindigkeit auf dem Wasser, reduzierten Luftwiderstand und mehr Gesamtkontakt mit den tiefsten G&R-Kanälen aller unserer Cable Boards für zusätzliche Traktion. Das Kabel-Kingpin-Design wurde für einen übertriebenen technischen Nose-/Tail-Press mit zusätzlichem Snap-Back im Vergleich zu einem Utopia-Pendant entwickelt.Eigenschaften:- FAHRSTIL: PARK- FAHRNIVEAU: FORTGESCHRITTEN- KONSTRUKTION: VERTIKALES HOLZ MIT SPRINGBOX 2- ROCKER: CONTINUOUS- FLEX: TARGETED TIP/TAIL FLEX- TPU GRAPHIC TOP SHEET- MAGIC CARPET TOP GLASS- SPEEDWALLS- SPRINGBOX TECHNOLOGY- M6 INSERTS- MONOCOQUE- VERTICAL PAULOWNIA WOOD- MAGIC CARPET BASE GLASS- SINTERED BASE SHEETBoots:Der Diplomat EXP wurde von unserem Lieblingsfranzosen Jules Charraud entworfen und verleiht dem Wort EXPloring eine neue Bedeutung.

Wir alle sind der Schwerkraft unterworfen, einer unsichtbaren Kraft, die uns auf dem Boden hält. Aber nicht mit dem GLP III. Das neue Enduro-E-Bike von Lapierre bietet ein neues, unerforschtes Terrain des Ausdrucks in Bezug auf das elektrische Mountainbiken. Noch nie ist es einem e-MTB so gut gelungen, Kräfte auszugleichen und Belastungen bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten zu reduzieren. Dank der überarbeiteten Kinematik des Karbonrahmens und der Neuausrichtung der Massen kann sich das Rad den Regeln der Physik entziehen. Die Fahrten werden leicht und wendig, während das Risiko des Umkippens oder des Ungleichgewichts begrenzt wird.Das VTTAE, das weiß, wie man Schläge einstecktDie Stabilität des GLP III bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten eröffnet neue Perspektiven für die Praxis: von e-XC bis e-Enduro über Bikeparks und zugelassene Wege, die 3. Generation des Gravity Logic Project macht keine Kompromisse, weder in den Bergen noch auf den Trails. Wie der e-XC-Champion Jérôme Gilloux oder die Formel-1-Fahrer ermöglicht es das GLP III, besser mit den Zwängen und der 'G'-Kraft umzugehen. Sind Sie bereit, die Schwerkraft zu überwinden?

So faszinierend die humanoide Lebensform auch ist, so dringend muss sie vernichtet werden. Nach einem Terroranschlag herrscht auf dem friedlichen Planeten Patriam ein Bürgerkrieg. Gewaltsam konnte der Erlöser Balendin die Vorherrschaft über den Mond Aurum erlangen, der die Quelle des Lebens – Divinus – in sich beherbergt. Die Aufständischen haben die Regierung gestürzt. Die Hauptstadt Oppida Prima ist Schauplatz dieses grausamen Krieges. In dem herrschenden Chaos versucht Ordnungshüter Peregrin mit dem Widerstand die geheimen Pläne des Erlösers zu durchkreuzen. Er benutzt den patriamischen Aufstand, um sein Ziel voranzutreiben - die Auslöschung des humanoiden Lebens im gesamten Universum. Das muss um jeden Preis verhindert werden. Peregrin stellt sich dem aussichtlosen Kampf, um nicht nur die Patriamer vor ihrer Vernichtung, sondern auch die Menschheit auf dem Planeten Nova Domus – besser bekannt als die Erde - zu bewahren. Mit „Aurum – P.I.K.E.“ setzt der österreichische Autor Roland Hebesberger seinen Science-Fiction-Thriller „Social Project“ fort. Gewohnt spannend, actionreich und überraschend erzählt Hebesberger die Hintergrundgeschichte der „Divinus-Saga“ weiter und enthüllt weitere Geheimnisse über die Patriamer. *Dieser Band ist eigenständig lesbar, spielt aber innerhalb des Buchuniversums namens "Divinus-Saga".

KINETIK SPRINGBOX 2 144 2023 inkl. HYPERLITE REMIX Boots 2024 - 36-41 KINETIK SPRINGBOX 2 WakeboardA soft bendable tip and tail blending to a standard flex in the center. This Kinetik Project has a traditional mid-section and extra pliable ends for more of a locked in feel on presses and rebounding out of them. In cable boards you want leverage points where a certain part of the board compresses until the fulcrum kicks in with snap back. This series does that by allowing a rider to exaggerate their press with the softest flex numbers in the tip/tailbut as the press gains a high degree of angle, the center of the board prevents it from folding over. A design with less rocker for infinite top water speed, reduced drag, and more overall contact with the deepest G&R channels of any of our cable boards for extra traction. Engineered with the exact same core, outline, and rocker as the Flexbox 1but has totally different flex points. The cable kingpin design created for an exaggerated technical nose/tail press with some added snap recessed in the wood.Features:- RIDING STYLE: PARK | ADVANCED- CONSTRUCTION: VERTICAL WOOD WITH SPRINGBOX 2- ROCKER: CONTINUOUS- FLEX: TARGETED TIP/TAIL FLEX ZONE - Distinct pressure points every time with a softer tip/tail.- TPU GRAPHIC TOP SHEET- MAGIC CARPET TOP GLASS- SPEEDWALLS- SPRINGBOX TECHNOLOGY- M6 INSERTS- MONOCOQUE- VERTICAL PAULOWNIA WOOD- MAGIC CARPET BASE GLASS- SINTERED BASE SHEETHYPERLITE REMIX BootsThe Remix Binding is a supportive but easy-to-get-into adjustable and sharable wakeboard binding. It features dual lace zones like more expensive bindings, plus the plushness you come to expect from an open-toe. The 3D molded tongue provides maximum comfort and solid board control. The Remix Binding is an excellent choice for beginner to intermediate riders looking for a comfortable, user-friendly wakeboard binding that will pair with any board on the market today.Features:- Easy on Fit: Binding opens wide easing entry to begin your session.- Support Level - Mid: Material selection engineering to offer a softer more flexible feel.- Adjustable Sizing: Adjustable toe design & floating tongue offer different shoe sizes a secure fit. Share your Bindings and #PassTheHandle.- Low Pro Plate System: The Low Pro Plate system takes much of what we learned from the System binding and incorporates it into a more traditional design. We began by reducing the overall volume by nearly 16%, which translates into a much lighter boot. Our drop-through footbed keeps a rider closer to the deck for maximum control and response. To ensure the baseless design did not produce unwanted plate twist we connected the sidewalls to the chassis, creating a stronger foundation.- Range of Motion - Max: Designed for those seeking a softer more flexible boot - tweaking to the Max.- Aluminum Mounting System: Reinforced stability plates with a raised teeth interlocking design reducing heel lift solidifying your connection.- Universal 6" Mounting Spread: Industry standard insert pattern - Mates with every wakeboard on the market today.- Molded EVA Footbed: Ergonomically molded EVA provides comfort and support for ability levels, impact protection and arch support included on all Hyperlite footbeds.- Articulating Cuff: Pivot point allowing lower foot & upper ankle sections to flex independently.- Lace Closure - Dual: Upper and lower lace closures provide adjustability & customization.

A Variety best music book of 2024 A FLOOD best music book of 2024 A Clash best music book of 2024 A Mother Jones best book of 2024 "In a career and life full of fictions, the truth-as this excellent, detailed biography makes clear-was often as mind-boggling [. . .] Hip-hop writer S.H. Fernando Jr. benefits from an insider's understanding of the milieu and provides generous context." -Kitty Empire, The Guardian The definitive biography of MF DOOM, charting the reclusive and revered hip-hop artist's life, career, and eventual immortality. On December 31, 2020, the world was shocked to learn about the death of hip-hop legend MF DOOM. Born in London and raised in the suburban enclave of Long Beach, New York, Daniel Dumile Jr.'s love of cartoons and comic books would soon turn him into one of hip-hop's most enigmatic, prolific, and influential figures. Sweeping and definitive, The Chronicles of DOOM: Unraveling Rap's Masked Iconoclast recounts the rise, fall, redemption, and untimely demise of MF DOOM. Broken down into five sections: The Man, The Myth, The Mask, The Music, and The Legend, journalist S. H. Fernando, or SKIZ, chronicles the life of Daniel Dumile Jr., beginning in the house he grew up in in Long Beach, NY, into the hip-hop group KMD, onto the stage of his first masked show, through the countless collabs, and across the many different cities Daniel called home. Centering the music, SKIZ deftly lays out the history of east-coast rap against DOOM's life story and dissects the personas, projects, tracks, and lyrics that led to his immortality. Including exclusive interviews with those who worked closely with DOOM and providing an unknown, intimate, behind the scenes look into DOOM's life, The Chronicles of DOOM is the definitive biography of MF DOOM, a supervillain on stage and hero to those who paid attention.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES "Unverzichtbar und maßgebend. Wirft ein ernsthaftes Licht auf das dunkle Geld, die dunklen Ideen und die dunklen Seelen, die Trumps Grausamkeit und den Verrat an den USA vorantreiben' - James O'Brien In den Monaten vor der Präsidentschaftswahl 2024 verbreitete sich die Nachricht über das Projekt 2025, ein fast 1.000-seitiges Dokument, das von der konservativen Denkfabrik The Heritage Foundation veröffentlicht wurde. Die Debatten - und die Ängste - rund um diese Initiative haben nur noch zugenommen, da die Autoren des Projekts in der zweiten Trump-Administration Machtpositionen einnehmen. Was genau ist also das Projekt 2025? Wer hat es geschrieben, was steht tatsächlich darin, und was bedeutet es für den Alltag der Menschen auf der ganzen Welt, quer durch das politische Spektrum, in den kommenden Jahren? In The Project bietet der preisgekrönte Journalist David A. Graham den dringend benötigten Kontext und destilliert die wesentlichen Elemente dieses weitläufigen Dokuments. Graham schlüsselt die Strategie

Kenichi Zenimura - known as "Zeni" - loved baseball. As a young man in the 1920s he developed a Nisei baseball league in Fresno, California, and later organized barnstorming tours that brought the likes of Babe Ruth to the West Coast and Japan. And despite being sent to a Japanese-American internment camp in Arizona during World War II, he knew that somehow, baseball would be the key to improving the lives of his fellow detainees. This play is sponsored by the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program, a state-funded grant project of the California State Library.

Während Trump 2024 wieder auf dem Wahlzettel steht, wird diese Sammlung von Doonesbury-Sonntagscomics über den ehemaligen (und möglicherweise zukünftigen) Präsidenten kurz vor einem der bedeutendsten Wahlzyklen seit Jahrzehnten veröffentlicht. "Ich möchte einen Tag lang Diktator sein." - Trump. Band V des Doonesbury Trump Quintet verfolgt die sich immer weiter ausbreitende Grosse Lüge, wobei Brand einen Monatskalender anbietet, um die wachsenden Gerichtstermine des ehemaligen Präsidenten zu verfolgen. Leider für das Trump Innocence Project stellt sich heraus, dass fast alle Zeugen ehemalige Mitarbeiter oder Verbündete sind. Wie haben es die Demokraten geschafft, Trumps Freunde zu instrumentalisieren? Während die Leser darüber nachgrübeln, können sie auch ein Verbrecherleben-Brettspiel spielen - Donald Trumps Spree. Der einzige Weg zu gewinnen, besteht natürlich darin, zu schummeln, aber kein Problem - das ist normalisiert worden. Glücklicherweise enthält dieser Band auch die Doonesbury-Stammgäste, wobei Alex und Toggle drei freilaufende Kinder grossziehen und Mike glücklich in der Rolle des Grosselternteils schwelgt. Mr. Covid geht in den Ruhestand, stolz darauf, dass seine schlaueren, anpassungsfähigeren Nachkommen den Kampf gegen die Ungeimpften weiterführen werden. Joanie denkt, dass Ricks neueste Geschichte das Beste ist, was er je geschrieben hat: schade, dass sie tatsächlich von ChatGPT verfasst wurde. Roland und Rascal, die durch ukrainische Schneeverwehungen waten, stolpern in einen Meta-Zusammenbruch. Nicht einmal die Fantasie ergibt Sinn, aber in Day One Dictator gibt G.B. Trudeau sein Bestes. Garry Trudeau ist im 36. Jahr damit beschäftigt, Donald Trump loszuwerden. Nichts hat funktioniert.

The story of the French far right's unstoppable rise—from the woes of a broken society to the powerful personalities upending the status quo. France's next presidential election is due by 2027 at the latest; and the far-right Rassemblement National is favoured to win. Founded by the antisemitic Jean-Marie Le Pen, the RN—previously the Front National—was a fringe entity until daughter Marine took over. She 'detoxified' the party, then brought in telegenic young protégé Jordan Bardella as its face in the 2020s. Together, they echo voters' economic grievances and disgust at French political culture, while blasting 'mass immigration' of Muslims and foreign 'criminals'—all starkly reminiscent of Donald Trump's strategy in winning the White House. France—central to the European project—is the far right's next great prize. In 2024, the RN became the largest party in both the EU Parliament and the French Assembly. In vivid, sharp prose, from the halls of power to the campaign trail, veteran correspondent Victor Mallet explains how the far right won over the country and became a government in waiting—one preparing to transform France, Europe and the world.

If conservation seeks to preserve what remains and stave off further decline, rewilding goes further, seeking to restore entire ecosystems. It involves a spectrum of conservation options; at one end is a 'passive' approach prioritising ecological restoration – in essence, leaving land to recover naturally. At the other is what might be termed 'active' rewilding, where habitats are actively restored and keystone species reintroduced to quicken the process of recovery. The stakes are high in active rewilding. Large mammal translocations and wildlife corridors running through densely populated areas are high-risk, high-reward initiatives. In this timely and exciting contribution to a wider conversation about our relationship with the natural world, wildlife journalist Millie Kerr takes readers on a global journey of discovery. She considers the practicalities and possibilities of ecological restoration around the world, while exploring first-hand some of the most ambitious undertakings occurring today, many of which involve species reintroductions in the Global South. Wilder details the return of jaguars to an Argentinian national park, the first-ever pangolin reintroduction project in South Africa, and the ways in which giant tortoises are aiding the recovery of ecosystems throughout the Galápagos Islands, among many others. At an urgent moment in the international fight against biodiversity loss, Wilder's message is one of innovation and optimism. By focusing on conservation success stories and showing that there are bands of determined conservationists fighting for a better future, Wilder inspires us all to become part of the solution.

The puzzles for this 'Calendar' edition of Albcell were created and compiled in record time, and completely out of order. The first, the 'Calendar' anagram - the only one designed last year - was created at some point in June, while I was on vacation in Albania. While I was there I also experimented with the skeleton, the bare bones, of the project, to see if I had enough material to actually make a book out of it. I did this by writing a series of bullet points for all the puzzles - then, as soon as this initial sketch was completed, the idea was filed away in some deep subconscious part of my brain. Then, right after December 2024 - when, according to the plan, I was supposed to be focusing completely on a different project - 'Calendar' stepped out of the shadows and signaled to me that the time to pursue this topic was once again favorable! Being, among other things, a poet, I know first-hand how important it is to bow to the creative impulse and disregard pre-planning when necessary. Therefore, while laughing inwardly at my inability to follow the rationality of my premeditated schedule, I started throwing in possible anagram 'long shots' - the sort of thing where if I'd had the slightest issue with them, I'd have had to discard an entire topic and lose a ton of time. In a way, this was my way of testing that peculiar feeling I was getting that the time was truly right and I wasn't procrastinating in vain. Sure enough, things kept happening, and luck (for want of a better word) was on my side. So in no time I was able to breeze through a series of head-scratching challenges, racing daily toward the completion of a rather tricky project. What makes this book different from the rest is the order in which the puzzles were done. I was pressed for time the whole time, as I already mentioned, and I had many other upcoming books that needed my attention. So I had to muster up an unprecedented and unusual dose of self-discipline, to develop the clear-cut approach that was so vital this time around to ensure I used every minute to maximum effect, while also avoiding that feeling of 'burnout' that, let's face it, can be rather counterproductive. "Make a date with the latest Albcell! This new edition is all about those important days of the year... Give your brain a daily workout with two puzzles in one: a classic Albcell number puzzle and an anagram. And for the first time, Albcell comes to you in a large format book, to give you more easy-to-read puzzles and more space to play in!"

Painter Rudolf Levy (1875-1944) was a central figure in the Munich and Paris avant-gardes, and enjoyed great success with his colourful portraits, landscapes and still lifes in Berlin during the 1920s, including in the legendary Flechtheim Gallery. When the National Socialists seized power, this brought his career to an abrupt end. After an odyssey of flight, Levy was able to settle in Florence, where his work reached a final impressive climax before his deportation and murder in Auschwitz concentration camp. The Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern is the first German exhibition house to dedicate a retrospective to the work and life of Rudolf Levy. The catalogue opens the perspective on an artist of European standing whose rich pictorial world can be rediscovered again and again. Contributions by renowned authors shed light on Levy’s fate as a persecuted artist and as a persecuted Jew, on the artistic kaleidoscope of his time, his years in exile in Florence, and the reception and re-canonisation of his art in the young Federal Republic.

To his millions of fans worldwide, Ryan Gosling is not just a handsome face that can say "Hey girl!" in a way that makes them go weak at the knees (though he can and does), he is the defining icon of the new Golden Age of cinema, a 21st-century Cary Grant, as macho as he is feminine, with a total of 11 Oscar, Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations under his belt, and a Golden Globe victory for Best Actor. Since his tenure as a leading man, 20 years ago in The Notebook, Ryan's films have grossed more than $2 billion dollars, and his next few projects will certainly add to that figure, with Project Hail Mary, Wolf Man, Gray Man 2, and Margot Robbie's Ocean Eleven reboot keeping him in the La La Land limelight for many years to come. I'm Just Ryan throws a bright spotlight on the actor's playful and positive sense of humour and philosophy and revels in his ridiculous charm and sexiness with a wealth of iconic quotes and facts about the man - the legend - himself. "I did doubt my Kenergy in the beginning. I just wasn't sure I could do it but I just decided I was going to Ken as hard as I can. I Kenned in the morning; I Kenned at night. If I'm honest, I'm Kenning a little right now." Ryan, on channeling his "Kenergy". "Eva's the dream mother, and they're dream babies, and it's like a dream that I'm having right now. I'm dreaming it all." Ryan, on his wife Eva Mendes. Ryan Gosling's live performance of "I'm Just Ken" at the 2024 Academy Awards is already considered one of the most iconic moments in Oscars history. Dressed head-to-toe in pink, Ryan stole the show with Guns & Rose guitarist Slash and Mark Ronson, alongside 65 other "Ken's", and his Barbie co-stars. More than 20 million people tuned in to watch and sales of the song jumped by 900 per cent during the performance.

From that humble start, he went on to build Khoj Samachar, one of Nepal's most trusted independent digital news platforms, empowering citizens through transparent reporting. In 2024, he founded WikiNP - Nepal's first open digital encyclopedia - and later launched the Roshan Shrestha App, a free public platform providing verified information, visa verification tools, and civic education for Nepali citizens. Through these projects, Roshan proved that journalism and technology can unite to build a more informed and responsible nation. The Digital Voice of Nepal is more than a personal journey - it is the story of a new generation of Nepali journalists redefining truth in the digital era. For readers interested in media, technology, innovation, and Nepal's transformation, this book offers hope, courage, and a vision for a transparent, connected future.

24th Poet Laureate of the United States Ada Limón inspires us to see poetry as much more than just words—as a powerful force for healing, a call to action, and a vibrant celebration of humanity’s many voices. Ada Limón—celebrated poet laureate and 2023 MacArthur fellow—takes us on an inspiring journey into a world where poetry is both a soothing balm for the soul and a spark for transformation. With her blend of accessible yet profound prose, Limón delivers a powerful message: poetry has the ability to heal, connect, and remind us of our shared humanity. Limón’s mission to make poetry approachable shines brightly in this slim but impactful book. Recognized as a 2024 Time magazine Woman of the Year for her commitment to bringing poetry into everyday lives, Limón passionately argues that poetry is essential to understanding ourselves—our tenderness, courage, imperfections, and our deep, unshakable worthiness of love. Drawing from her own experiences as the 24th US poet laureate, Limón shares how poetry connects us not only to each other but to the natural world. This theme is at the heart of her project You Are Here, which celebrates the beauty of our environment and our place in it. Her prose, like her poetry, feels like an open invitation—welcoming readers of all backgrounds to explore the richness of human experience through verse. Fans of Robin Wall Kimmerer, Matthew Zapruder, or Jesmyn Ward will find a kindred spirit in Against Breaking—which offers a refuge, a reminder of the resilience and beauty found within us and all around us. As Limón writes with heartfelt clarity, “If you need to remember what makes us human, tender, brave, flawed, and worthy of love, you need poetry.”
