    Das Arche Noah Prinzip (BLU-RAY)
    1997. Auf der Raumstation FLORIDA ARKLAB erforschen die beiden hochqualifizierten Astronauten Max Marek und Billy Hayes die Möglichkeiten der Einflußnahme auf Klima und Wettergeschehen der Erde. Als es zu einer Krise im Nahen Osten kommt, soll die Technik der Wetterkontrolle für militärische Zwecke mißbraucht werden: Die Strahlen haben die Wirkung einer Tarnkappe und würden eine blitzschnelle Invasion ermöglichen. Doch die Wetterbeeinflußung würde auch verheerende Flutwasserkatastrophen auslösen.Max hat Skrupel und sabotiert die Computerprogramme. Die Bodenkontrolle bemerkt das und schickt ein anderes Austronautenpaar zur Ablösung - den undurchschaubaren Gregor und Max Frau Eva. Gregor ist befugt, die Befehle des Militärs auch mit Gewalt durchzusetzen. Es kommt zum Kampf, und ein mörderischer Wettlauf mit der Zeit beginnt.Darsteller:Aviva Joel, Franz Buchrieser, Richy Müller, Matthias Fuchs, Matthias Heller, Nikolas Lansky

    Meyer Lansky: The Infamous Life and Legacy of the Mob’s Accountant , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 96min
    “Don't worry, don't worry. Look at the Astors and the Vanderbilts, all those big society people. They were the worst thieves - and now look at them. It's just a matter of time.” (Meyer Lansky)One of America’s most infamous mobsters, Meyer Lansky, was also one of the most mysterious, a perplexing yet inexplicably intriguing individual with multiple reputations. To his admirers, he was in many ways the ultimate genius and survivor within the callous and cutthroat world of 20th-century organized crime. Even in adulthood, Meyer was smaller than most, standing anywhere between four-foot-11 to five-foot-four and weighing 136 pounds at his heaviest. He was not merely an intellectual - he was worldly and wise, one who often doled out advice akin to poetry to his children and grandchildren, his gravelly voice oddly soothing. At the same time, he had all the stealth and cunning of a sphinx, and while remarkably even-tempered, gangsters twice his size dared not cross him. To them, he was no more than a wildly ambitious, often misunderstood entrepreneur who trod upon the border between legality and lawlessness with all the mastery of a tightrope artist. He was, above all, the definition of humility, one whose “handshake was worth more than any contract” and a man who actively dodged the spotlight that doggedly tailed him until the end of his days. Conversely, most will quickly concede that while Lansky was an exceptionally clever criminal, he was a criminal all the same, and the crimes of this dark horse were unforgivable. Meyer was a fraudulent, tax-evading crook whose massive fortune was literally made off the bodies of countless victims. He was a silver-tongued fiend who preyed on the weak and impressionable, plying them with booze and drugs and feeding their gambling addictions. Lansky, whose most famous nickname remains the “Mob’s Accountant”, was one of the few gangsters of his era to die in old age, and he was never pinched for anything mor ungekürzt.

    Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky: The Controversial Mobsters Who Worked with Lucky Luciano to Form the National Crime Syndicate , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 145min
    In the last 70 years, a countless number of people have come across the grisly and morbidly fascinating crime scene photographs of Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel's murder. The photographs are as disconcerting as they are iconic, for they show a gritty glimpse into the haunting reality of a life too often glamorized by pop culture. The less-publicized photograph of Bugsy in the morgue is, in a way, a more chilling reminder of the barbarity and callous irony behind the term “organized crime”. With the blood on his face rinsed off and his hair slicked back, it almost seems as if the photographer had caught Bugsy mid-slumber, but the balls of cotton plugging the gaping bullet holes in his face suggest otherwise. One minute, the fearless Bugsy was stalking the streets of Sin City, his mere presence enough to make even the most hardened thugs break out in a cold sweat, and the next minute, Bugsy was reduced to an unrecognizable body sprawled out on a hard metal slab, with the name on his toe tag misspelled. Bugsy, who helped turn Las Vegas into what it became, had risen to the upper echelons of New York's criminal underworld along with his childhood friend, Meyer Lansky. One of America’s most infamous mobsters, Lansky was also one of the most mysterious, a perplexing, yet inexplicably intriguing individual with multiple reputations. To his admirers, he was in many ways the ultimate genius and survivor within the callous and cut-throat world of 20th century organized crime.

    Havana Daydreamin': The Jake Sullivan Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 284min
    It's the summer of 1958, and Meyer Lansky, the mob's accountant, is barely a warm breeze away from seeing the crown jewel of his gambling empire sparkling on the ocean: Havana, the Monte Carlo of the Caribbean. Then, Castro came down from the mountains, armed and on a mission.Batista's days were numbered and so was his patronage of Lansky and his cronies. It is said that Lansky moved hundreds of millions of dollars out of Cuba. But, when he died in 1983, his estate was reported to be worth only 60,000 dollars in cash. What happened to the money?With the ratification of the treaty between the US and Cuba, President Jordan Fletcher is encouraging American entrepreneurship on the island. Enter the mob...with a revived dream of government-sanctioned criminal enterprise. Two competing factions are vying to become the new Havana mob and each knows the key to success is finding Lansky's missing millions.   One faction, led by the mysterious Le Lisiado, is on the offensive: Paula Cortez, President Fletcher's liaison to the new Cuban government, is kidnapped. When Mike Lang learns of the kidnapping, he rushes to Havana to save the woman he loves. Threatening Paula's death, Le Lisiado blackmails Mike into finding the lost Lansky millions. Desperate for help, Mike calls upon his best friend, Jake Sullivan. Aided by a former Lansky employee, Silvio Caroselli, and Manuel Ortega, the new chief of Havana Police, Mike and Jake track clues through a maze of leads, racing to find the treasure and save Paula's life.Chip Bell's third novel takes the listener on a twisted treasure hunt that begins in 1950s Havana and leads to an ending that no one, especially Jake and Mike, could have thought possible. ungekürzt.

    Kaltherz, 2 Audio-CD, 2 MP3
    Kim Lansky, dickköpfig, forsch und wegen ihrer unbequemen Art aus der Cybercrime-Einheit geflogen, kommt in die Vermisstenabteilung der Münchner Kripo. Auf ihrem Tisch landet ein seit Monaten ungeklärter Fall: Die fünfjährige Marie wurde unbemerkt aus dem Auto ihrer Mutter entführt, mutmaßlich von der Nanny. Doch es gibt keine Lösegeldforderung, und auch die Befragung der Eltern - der von Schuld zerfressenen Clara und dem Karrieristen Jakob - lässt Lansky zweifeln. Anstatt Marie findet sie die Leiche der Nanny. Und anstatt Antworten tauchen immer mehr Fragen auf: Was verschweigen die Eltern? Was hat der Fall mit einer Kindesentführung in den Neunzigern zu tun? Und warum bleiben so viele Kinder in München spurlos verschwunden?Ungekürzte Lesung mit Tanja Fornaro, Simon Jäger, Vera Teltz, Jodie Ahlborn2 mp3-CDs ca. 11 h 40 min

    Last Trout in Venice: The Far-Flung Escapades of an Accidental Adventurer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
    In the plucky, hilarious, and irreverent spirit of Lansky's popular "Vagabond" newspaper column comes Last Trout in Venice, a book of adventurous and wacky travel essays that will have you laughing out loud. In Naples, Italy, Lansky rents a car precisely because of the city's reputation as one of the worst places to drive in the world. In Berlin he dons a full-body latex suit, preparing for his visit to the notorious erotic KitKatClub. Inspired by Hemingway, he travels to Africa, where he accidentally stumbles upon a foolproof diet - the "Deep Sea Fishing off Kenya's Coast During Rainy Season Weight Loss System". And in Venice you'll hear Lansky as he dries out in the sun after his fall into the Grand Canal (in which he inadvertently took a big drink of water) while taking gondola-driving lessons. ungekürzt.
