Könyv Kemping 2025

Idén lesz Könyv Kemping a Booktuber Könyvklub szervezésében! Itt megnézhető a bejelentő videó!

Időpont: 2025. január 11. 00:01 - 19. 23:59 Közös könyv: Diana Wynne Jones - A vándorló palota (Ciceró)

Az olvasási kihívás egyes pontjaihoz mi is aj��nlunk könyveket alább, de előbb egy beszélgetésre hívjuk fel a figyelmeteket.

Sok könyv jutott eszünk, de igyekeztünk szűkíteni a kört és viszonylag rövid terjedelmű köteteket beírni a listába, hogy legyen idő elolvasni a Könyv Kemping ideje alatt. Illetve igyekeztünk nem csak fantasy és sci-fi zsánerben válogatni, így sikerült 😊

@eemcintyre's top 118 favorite movies in alphabetical order

Teams: Manly's axing after show-stopping game

The NRL's form player of the year, Tom Trbojevic, is set to make his return for the Sea Eagles after missing round 23 with a facial injury.Last week, Trbojevic was ruled out as a precaution amid conflicting reports the superstar fullback had damaged a pre-existing facial fracture.

Tom Trbojevic (Getty)While serious injury concerns were put to bed, the Sea Eagles took no chance, resting their talisman who is set to make an emphatic return against the Bulldogs this week.Meanwhile, star teammate Moses Suli has been dropped from Des Hasler's squad despite putting up a stellar man of the match performance last week. Suli has been dropped to reserves, replaced by Brad Parker who slots straight into the centres.

Happy birthday, Michael Faraday!

On 22 September 1791, Michael Faraday was born. Faraday is a pivotal and influential figure in the history of science, focusing his studies in chemistry and physics.

Born in London, England, Faraday began an apprenticeship with Sir Humphry Davy and accompanied him on a tour of the European continent. Later, he developed his skills as an analytical and practical chemist, becoming a fellow of the Royal Society. Faraday discovered that electricity flowing in a wire can act like a magnet (electromagnetism) and how electricity can be used with chemicals to make them change (electrochemistry). 

His invention, the electromagnetic rotary device, formed the basis of electric motor technology, and it’s largely due to his inventions and efforts that electricity became viable for use in technology. Faraday is considered one of the most famous scientists of the 19th century.

What other fandoms are you familiar enough with to use as an AU prompt? Pokemon Trainer AU? Homestuck AU (they'd still probably die but at least there are lots of ways to come back to life)?

I’m not that familiar with Homestuck, definitely not enough to do an AU.  I read the novelizations of the Pokemon show as a kid but never saw the show or played any of the video games.  I did play the super-obscure Pokemon board game, but most of my trading cards were printed in Japanese (I had a strange childhood), so my experience there is, uh, probably not quite overlapping with everyone else’s.

Anyway, if you want list of all my fandoms… Boy howdy.  I don’t think I can come up with them all.  However, I can list everything that comes to mind between now and ~20 minutes from now when I have to end my procrastination break and go back to dissertating.  So here it is, below the cut:

Disclaimer 1: Like a lot of people who went to high school in the American South, my education in literature is pretty shamefully lacking in a lot of areas.  (As in, during our African American History unit in ninth grade we read To Kill a Mockingbird, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn… and that was it.  As in, our twelfth-grade US History class, I shit you not, covered Gone With the Wind.)  There were a lot of good teachers in with the *ahem* Less Woke ones (how I read Their Eyes Were Watching God and The Bluest Eye) and college definitely set me on the path to trying to find books written/published outside the WASP-ier parts of the U.S., but the overall list is still embarrassingly hegemonic.

Disclaimer 2: There are a crapton of errors — typos, misspelled names, misattributions, questionable genre classifications, etc. — in here.  If you genuinely have no idea what a title is supposed to be, ask me.  Otherwise, please don’t bother letting me know about my mistakes.

Disclaimer 3: I am not looking for recommendations.  My Goodreads “To Read” list is already a good 700 items long, and people telling me “if you like X, then you’ll love Y!” genuinely stresses me the fuck out.

Disclaimer 4: There are no unproblematic faves on this list.  I love Supernatural, and I know that Supernatural is hella misogynistic.  On the flip side: I don’t love The Lord of the Rings at all, partially because LOTR is hella misogynistic, but I also don’t think that should stop anyone else from loving LOTR if they’re willing to love it and also acknowledge its flaws.

A rather dashing portrait of Charles Darwin in 1849. I dug up this image after reading a fine rant by Darren Naish:

Here’s a little known fact. Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882), the most important biologist of all time, did not spend his entire life as an old man. I despise stereotypes, especially those that are totally erroneous, and whenever I see a picture of ‘old man Darwin’ I wonder: why is it that so many of our most important scientists are consistently portrayed as old men? Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing in particular against old men (or beards), it’s just that this tradition is annoying and misleading, and perpetuated by a society that seems to want scientists to be oddballs that operate on the fringes of society.

Cage Warriors 102 results: Webb stuns in hometown title win

A monumental return to the U.K capital saw Cage Warriors crown hometown hero James Webb their new middleweight champion, to top a massive card stacked with memorable moments.

In the main event, London’s own James Webb capitalised on the defining moment of his career, submitting Thomas Robertsen to the roar of the home crowd. After hearing the noise in the Indigo tonight, anyone in attendance knows one thing for certain – Cage Warriors have a new UK star with a formidable following on their hands.

Lower down the main card, Rhys McKee and Perry Goodwin gave the fans one of the most exciting lightweight fights in recent memory, eventually ending with a shock submission finish for McKee. Also in the lightweight division, Jai Herbert was able to overcome Steve O’Keeffe’s grappling-heavy offense to pull off a stunning TKO, taking his record to 8-1.

To open up the main card, rising Brazilian welterweight Joilton Santos caused the upset in his Cage Warriors debut by besting former UFC contender Craig White across 3 rounds.

A superbly matched 8-fight prelim card gave the London crowd plenty to shout about, with hometown fighters Nathan Jones and Brad Wheeler both picking up first round finishes. Other highlights included an incredible display of determination from Modestas Bukauskas to finish Marcin Wojcik after being down on the scorecards, and yet another decisive win for top flyweight contender Sam Creasey.

And that’s not all – before the pros took to the cage, Liverpool up-and-comer Marcus Lewis put on a calculated 3-round clinic to become the new Cage Warriors Academy North West Amateur Champion, dethroning former champ Adam Shelley.

Tonight’s action has laid the groundwork for Cage Warriors’ return to London for a historic ‘Live at the Apollo’ event on June 29th, when the promotion’s President Graham Boylan promises to stack one of the biggest cards in Cage Warriors history. Early Bird tickets are currently on sale HERE at 20% off.

Cage Warriors are back in action in one weeks time, when they hit Copenhagen, Denmark for for CW103 on March 9th, headlined by an Interim Welterweight Title Fight between Alex Lohoré and former champion Nicolas Dalby.

Cage Warriors 102 weigh in results

Many of Cage Warriors’ biggest names met in the U.K capital today to weigh in for CW102, one of the promotion’s most impressive London cards ever.

Topping the bill is a middleweight title fight between London’s own James Webb, who tipped the scales at 184.2lbs, and Thomas Robertsen (184.1lbs) from Norway.

Their stare down had the intensity to match any title fight in the Cage Warriors books, but respect shone through. Both men rose through the ranks together in the Cage Warriors Academy South East, and now a defining point in their fighting journeys can be marked as they meet under main event lights with the title on the line.

Also stacking the main card are two hugely exciting lightweight bouts in Jai Herbert (155.6 lbs) vs Steve O’Keeffe (154lbs) and Perry Goodwin (154.7lbs) vs Rhys McKee (155.8lbs). With the lightweight division the strongest its ever been and many contenders eyeing the title, it’s all to fight for on Saturday night.

Opening up the main card is Brazil’s Joilton Santos (170.5lbs) vs Craig ‘The Thundercat’ White (170.5lbs), who is back in the yellow gloves after a 2-fight run with the UFC.

Fans can tune in to all of the above action on CW102’s Main Card live on UFC FightPass from 9PM Saturday night.

A major talking point in the run up to CW102 has rightly been the strength of Cage Warriors 8-fight pro prelims, which will be aired free for all on UFC Fight Pass from 5.40PM. Highlights include the return of top flyweight contenders Sam Creasey (125.6 lbs) and Andy Young (125.1 lbs), and an electric bantamweight bout between Brian Bouland (135.1 lbs) and London fan favourite Cory Tait (135.9 lbs).

Unfortunately, late medical issues have forced both Adam Amarasinghe and Carlos Graca off the card, meaning their bouts with Darren O’Gorman and Michael Younis have been cancelled.

The London Indigo at the O2 Arena is over 90% sold out for CW102, with the very last remaining standing tickets available HERE.

CW102 full fight card and broadcast details

This Saturday, March 2nd, Cage Warriors return to the Indigo at the O2 Arena with one of their strongest London cards ever.

Topping the bill is a middleweight title fight between London fan favourite James Webb and Norway’s Thomas Robertsen.

With 4 finish wins in his last 4 outings, James Webb has proven more than capable of handling top European names, with his last KO victory over former title challenger Jason Radcliffe securing his shot at the coveted middleweight belt.

Robertsen, with a near-perfect record of 7-1 and 6 first-round finishes, is convinced he can steal the belt away from the UK and bring another Cage Warriors world title back to Scandinavia where he’d join the region’s list of former champions including Søren Bak, Nicolas Dalby and now-UFC middleweight Jack Hermansson.

CW102’s main card will also feature two hugely exciting lightweight bouts in Jai Herbert vs Steve O’Keeffe and Perry Goodwin vs Rhys McKee, and the return of Craig ‘The Thundercat’ White who is back under Cage Warriors lights after a 2-fight run with the UFC.

In the pro prelims, fans can expect fireworks when dynamic flyweights Sam Creasey and Andy Young meet in the featured bout, and former bantamweight title challenger Brian Bouland takes on London’s own Cory Tait.

The UK capital’s fight scene has never been stronger, with major London names like Darren Stewart and former champion Nathaniel Wood coming through the Cage Warriors ranks into the UFC spotlight. Could we see the future world superstars of the sport throw down this Saturday night?
