Описание: Tom Waits, even with his barnyard growl and urban hipster yawp, may just be what the Daily Telegraph calls him: ‘the greatest entertainer on Planet Earth.’ Over a span of almost four decades, he has transformed his music and persona not to suit the times but his whims. Along with Bob Dylan, he stands as one of American music’s last elder statesmen, still capable of putting out records that matters. Journalists intent upon cracking the code are more likely to come out of a Waits interview with anecdotes about the weather, insects, or medieval medicine. He is, in essence, the teacher we wished we had, dispensing insights such as: ‘Vocabulary is my main instrument’; ‘We all like music, but what we really want is for music to like us’; ‘Anything you absorb you will ultimately secrete’; and ‘There is no such thing as non-fiction … People who really know what happened aren’t talking. And the people who don’t have a clue, you can’t shut them up.’ Tom Waits on Tom Waits is a selection of over 50 interviews, the majority of which have never been collected in book form before, in which Waits shares something truly unique with his readers. Taken together they present a de facto autobiography of a notoriously guarded artist.

Описание: The murder of a Pakistani social media star exposes a culture divided between accelerating modernity and imposed traditional values--and the tragedy of those caught in the middle.

In 2016, Pakistan's first social media celebrity, Qandeel Baloch, was murdered in a suspected honor killing. Her death quickly became a media sensation. It was both devastatingly routine and breathtakingly brutal, and in a new media landscape, it couldn't be ignored.

Qandeel had courted attention and outrage with a talent for self-promotion that earned her comparisons to Kim Kardashian--and made her the constant victim of harassment and death threats. Social media and reality television exist uneasily alongside honor killings and forced marriages in a rapidly, if unevenly, modernizing Pakistan, and Qandeel Baloch's story became emblematic of the cultural divide.

In this deftly reported and artfully told account, Sanam Maher reconstructs the story of Qandeel's life and explores the depth and range of her legacy from her impoverished hometown rankled by her infamy, to the aspiring fashion models who follow her footsteps, to the Internet activists resisting the same vicious online misogyny she faced. Maher depicts a society at a crossroads, where women serve as an easy scapegoat for its anxieties and dislocations, and teases apart the intrigue and myth-making of the Qandeel Baloch story to restore the humanity of the woman at its center.

Описание: This book provides an extensive analytical examination of the Cape Town Convention and its Protocols. The Convention aims to facilitate asset-based financing and leasing of aircraft, railway and space objects by establishing a uniform legal regime for the creation and protection of security and related interests in these types of equipment. The book provides a detailed treatment of issues arising from the creation of security and other international interests under the Convention, from the need to ensure their priority among competing interests to the enforcement of remedies in the case of the debtor’s default or insolvency. Security interests in aircraft, railway and space objects are among the most frequently invoked mechanisms used to ensure repayment of the debt. It is their significance, effectiveness and frequency of use that explains this work’s focus and scope.
