With remarkable archival footage of official distortion and exaggeration from LBJ to George W.

A Devil's Dictionary for the modern age, THE HAMPTONS DICTIONARY is a wicked social satire and hysterical lexical send-up of the rich and famous who flock to the Hamptons each summer and the locals who count the minutes until Labor Day when they leave. While Eastern Long Island, New York's swanky beach community, is the inspiration for Miles Jaffe's hilariously scathing look at the misadventures of the overloaded, it will be thoroughly enjoyed by anyone who has experienced what happens wherever the ubër-rich set up camp.

FAR OUT: 101 Strange Tales from Science's Outer Edge available online and in stores OCTOBER 2007.

Mark Pilkington charts some of the more curious byways, scenic detours, and inspired failures of scientists, inventors, and, yes, crackpots, over the past few hundred years. From the Aquatic Ape Hypothesis to zero-point energy, via the Hieronymous Machine and Phlogiston, Far Out tells the stories that are all too often ignored, lost, or simply forgotten by conventional science books. Some of them are perhaps best left languishing in the margins of history, but others may yet change our future. Entries cover physics, chemistry, biology, archaeology, parapsychology, psychology, and other areas yet to be inducted into mainstream science, including radionics, keranography, erotoxin, and remote viewing.

This beautifully presented hardcover features classics like the Iron Maiden and the Guillotine, as well as more rarified connoisseur's fare such as the Scavenger's Daughter and the Ear Chopper. And if the Tongue Tearer is not to your taste, there's always the Breast Ripper or the Drunkard's Cloak.

WHO REALLY RUNS THE WORLD? available online and in stores MAY 2007.

The world is a mess. It’s constantly at war, things cost too much and the average person struggles to survive against powers it can barely see, let alone control. It appears so at odds with common sense, in fact, that it begs a fundamental question: Who really runs the world? This book looks at the conspiracies in everyday life, both hidden and not-so-hidden. It examines actual people, businesses, social networks, corporate alliances and the dark forces of conspiracy and secret history that hold them together.

ESCAPE TO CANADA available online and in stores NOW.

Around the world, Canada is known for its beavers, Mounties and winter climate. But a new image of the country is emerging, one of potent marijuana, gay marriage and new freedoms.

Suddenly Canada changed forever and Canadians could proclaim to live in the true “Land of the Free.” However, these new freedoms would not last. Within months, Canada re-criminalized marijuana and jailed pot activists. In addition, there is suddenly a new campaign to turn back gay marriage – financed with US dollars. This is the story of the new land of the free ... or is it?

Graham Hancock's SUPERNATURAL available online and in everywhere books are sold! Say hello to GRAHAM HANCOCK on MySpace !

Less than 50,000 years ago mankind had no art, no religion, no sophisticated symbolism, no innovative thinking. Then, in a dramatic and electrifying change, described by scientists as "the greatest riddle in human history," all the skills and qualities that we value most highly in ourselves appeared already fully formed, as though bestowed on us by hidden powers. Author Graham Hancock (Fingerprints of the Gods, The Sign and The Seal) sets out to investigate this mysterious "before-and-after moment" and to discover the truth about the influences that gave birth to the modern human mind. SUPERNATURAL is now in paperback!

WOLVES IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING available online and in stores MAY 2007.

Forget the neoconservatives. As the Democrats retake Washington and progressives think they can pull the U.S. back from the brink, Stephen Marshall (Sundance-award winning director and co-founder of Guerrilla News Network) finds that the biggest threat to Western democracy is the U.S. liberal elite. He hits the road and travels from the front lines of the Iraq War, through the wasteland of the former communist Eastern bloc, into a coke-dusted sex party of Britain’s intellectual elite — and finds that American liberals have dumped the ’60s era radicalism of their youth and become complicit in a complex game of bait and switch, selling the world a vision of liberal democracy in which they, in fact, no longer believe.

WHO'S WATCHING YOU? available online and in stores MAY 2007.

You are being watched. Really. More and more prying eyes see everything you do. This isn’t just the plot line from TV’s 24 – our government is truly tightening its grip on us by watching and recording nearly everything we do. They are doing so because they know they can and because knowledge is power. But exactly who are “they” and why do they want to know so much about us? This book includes chilling, accurate and up-to-date descriptions of the methods the government (and private company proxies) uses to watch us. Essential reading for everyone concerned about privacy and freedoms of speech and association, even – perhaps especially – if you don’t plan on doing anything wrong.

IRAN: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW available online and in stores MAY 2007.

Iran's President Ahmadinejad shocked the world when he described the Holocaust as a myth and called for Israel to be "wiped off the map." Could Iran build and use nuclear weapons? How would we be affected if Iran cut off oil supplies? Many see Iran as part of the "axis of evil," and America is not alone in arguing that it presents a huge danger. But is Iran really the rabid Islamic dog that some paint it? Or is it in fact the most prosperous, sophisticated, cultured nation in the Middle East, despite its president's belligerence? This book gives you the facts and lets you form your own opinion.

THE ENIGMA OF THE FREEMASONS available online and in stores NOW.

There is a long fascination concerning Freemasons, their history and legend, and this book looks at both the factual history and the mystical connections. The speculation that there was a direct connection between the Knights Templar and the Freemasons started in the 18th century, when two Masonic scholars put forward the notion that Freemasonry began with the Crusades. Freemasonry was at the heart of the American Revolution: colonial Masons, along with their fellows in Europe, were in sympathy with the ideas of the revolution. This book is illustrated with a mixture of engravings, contemporary art, and photography, all of which expand upon and illuminate the writing.

ABOUT DISINFORMATION
Launched on September 13, 1996 Disinformation as the search service of choice for individuals looking for information on current affairs, politics, new science and the "hidden information" that seldom seems to slip through the cracks of the corporate-owned media conglomerates. Ironically, it was funded by one of the largest media companies in the world (TeleCommunications, Inc. (TCI), now part of Comcast).

The site drew immediate attention and (usually) applause from the very same news media that it was criticizing as being under the influence of both government and big business, but the honeymoon was short. Some three weeks after launch the CEO of TCI learned of Disinformation and immediately ordered it closed down. Needless to say, the founding team managed to keep the site going, and it has evolved into a popular alternative news and underground culture destination with thriving publishing and home video divisions.

While many of our projects have been deemed 'liberal' or 'progressive' that doesn't mean we close our minds to ideas that are called 'conservative' - far from it. How can someone be truly well informed with only part of the story? Disinformation has gone through several design and editorial changes since its launch in 1996; its current format is the most important daily news and information links carefully selected from the "noise" that clutters up the web. The site also has a deep archive of opinion and editorial articles featuring original Disinformation interviews and reporting, plus community areas for users to find other users, post their own stories, and chat about the issues presented on the site and other topics of importance to our community. We also welcome your feedback and of course encourage you to load up on Disinformation goodies in our store .

Danny Schechter's IN DEBT WE TRUST — A MUST SEE DVD!

Emmy-winning journalist Danny Schechter investigates America’s mounting debt crisis in his latest hard-hitting expose, IN DEBT WE TRUST: America Before the Bubble Bursts . This film reveals the unknown cabal of credit card companies, lobbyists, media conglomerates and the Bush administration itself who have colluded to deregulate the lending industry—ensuring that a culture of credit dependency can flourish.

Many Americans are “maxing out” on credit cards, living beyond their means, and are unable to make the minimum monthly payments. While these Americans struggle to manage their debt, there is a much deeper story at work: power is shifting into fewer hands with frightening consequences. Schechter exposes the hidden financial and political complex that allows the lowest wage earners to indebt themselves so heavily that even house repossessions are commonplace—dubbed “21st-century serfdom” by an expert featured in the film.
