Iceland truly lived the boom and bust. Once a tiny country on the edge of Europe, in less than two decades it became a global financial powerhouse. This is the story of how one man, one bank and one country experienced and affected the course of world economic history. Armann Thorvaldsson, a former CEO at Kaupthing in the UK, tells the story of how his company was transformed into a £6 billion international bank, by far the largest in his country’s history. Helping to build the biggest names in Icelandic business, Thorvaldsson represented the money behind such household names as easyJet, Matalan, Iceland and Karen Millen. As the boom got bigger, the Icelandic bankers worked and played hard with their international clients, including Gordon Ramsay, the Candy brothers, Mike Ashley and Robert Tchenguiz. Moving from Reykjavik to London, Monte Carlo and St Tropez, they seemed unstoppable. Yet, when the bust came, even the most frantic attempts to save the bank were fruitless, leading to the total collapse of the Icelandic economy. Thorvaldsson’s reflections on exactly what happened and why, make compelling reading.

In a sport played by tens of thousands, watched by millions and worth nearly half a billion, only a chosen few guide the dynasty that is figure skating. This is their story -- with others along the way. Once considered a genteel pastime, figure skating in the current day is big business both on and off the ice. It is a sport controlled by an elite group of individuals who attract the public's attention, rule the sport's direction, receive the most accolades and have the power to banish others from, or admit them to, the kingdom. These personalities are a mix of skating royalty, business titans and politicians. As the viewing public learned during the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, skating is a world filled with stars, scandals and social tiers. Frozen Assets takes you both front row and backstage in the skating world. There are the luminaries -- Scott Hamilton, Kristi Yamaguchi, Katarina Witt, Nancy Kerrigan, Oksana Baiul, Tara Lipinski and Michelle Kwan. There are the power brokers who populate International Management Group and Tom Collins Enterprises. There are the almighty officials of the International Skating Union. There are the working stiffs. And there are the media and the fans watching it all.

For the first time in paperback, here is the bestselling novel by “a writer of extraordinary gifts” (Tobias Wolff). Stunning, hypnotic, spare, The Seal Wife tells the story of a young scientist and his consuming love for a woman known only as the Aleut, a woman who refuses to speak. A novel of passions both dangerous and generative, The Seal Wife explores the nature of desire and its ability to propel an individual beyond himself and outside convention. Kathryn Harrison brilliantly re-creates the Alaskan frontier during the period of the First World War as she explores with deep understanding the interior landscape of the human psyche—a landscape eerily continuous with the splendor and terror of the frozen frontier and the storms that blow over the earth and its face.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) and the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) are both empowered to request States to freeze individuals? assets, the former in pursuit of its objective to bring an end to impunity for grave crimes and the latter in furtherance of its responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. Regardless of duration, freezing individuals? assets infringes on their rights. But the longer assets are frozen, the more likely and/or more severe these infringements become. Asset freezing measures executed at the behest of the two bodies are rarely short in duration, with ICC-requested measures capable of enduring from the issuance of a warrant of arrest until the accused person is acquitted or convicted and UNSC-ordered freezes continuing until the body no longer needs to act to maintain or restore international peace and security. The focus of this book rests on the two bodies? exercise of their asset freezing powers, with a particular emphasis on the legal protections available to those individuals at the receiving end of the measures at the disposal of the ICC and the UNSC, respectively.0.
