Suddenly an iceberg tore the ship asunder and five lifeboats were lowered. As four lifeboats drifted into the fog and icy water, never to be heard from again, the last boat wrenched away from the sinking ship with a few blankets, some water and biscuits, and thirteen souls. Only one would survive. This is his story. Using the lone survivor's journal and his later newspaper accounts along with ship's logs, assorted diaries, and family archives, Brian Murphy chronicles the horrific nine days that thirteen people suffered adrift on the cold gray Atlantic sea.

What happened to his body after Germany's surrender? Soviet troops had occupied the Berlin sector where the bunker was located—and they found bodies. Or so they said. Did the Russians identify Hitler's burned corpse? Why did Stalin mislead the world into believing the dictator had escaped? Without a body, doubts and rumors spread like wildfire. After years of negotiations with Russian authorities, Jean-Christophe Brisard and Lana Parshina were finally granted access to secret files detailing the Soviets' hunt to find and recover Hitler's body. And buried in those archives they found much more, including a small section of a skull with traces of a lethal bullet. The Death of Hitler reveals the final secrets of one of history's most fascinating cold cases. KEY SELLING POINTS: Exclusive new material from long hidden Soviet archives Thrilling narrative: Authors are award-winning journalists. ON SALE DATE: September 4, 2018 Global interest: Rights have already been sold in ten countries.

  • Return from Exile: How Extreme Metal Culture Found Its Niche with Dethklok and Postnetwork TV
    Journal of Popular Music Studies, Volume 27, Issue 2, Pages 163–183 Return from Exile: How Extreme Metal Culture Found Its Niche with Dethklok and Postnetwork TV Joe Tompkins Allegheny College In the premiere episode of Metalocalypse, an original animated series entering its fifth season on the Adult Swim channel,1 300, 000 metalheads travel to the Artic Circle to witness Dethklok, “the world’s greatest cultural force,” as they perform a coffee jingle for the Duncan Hills Coffee Corporation. Despite adverse conditions and a mere single song set list, thousands of fans risk life and limb for the chance to witness the legendary death metal band as they perform a raucous musical ode to the virtues of “ultimate flavor.” As one reporter on the scene observes, “Never before have so many people traveled so far for such a short song.” In a further testament to the band’s outstanding popularity and market value, concertgoers eagerly sign “pain waivers” excusing Dethklok from legal liability in the all too likely event they are somehow “burned, lacerated, eaten alive, poisoned, de-boned, crushed, or hammer-smashed” during the show. Meanwhile, the performance launches the international coffee mogul Duncan Hills to monopoly status, “obliterating” the competition. When asked by news reporters if such an act of corporate sponsorship means that Dethklok is “selling out,” frontman Nathan Explosion growlingly rejoins: “We are here to make coffee metal. We will make everything metal. Blacker than the blackest black . times infinity.” Touting “the biggest

  • Chronicling the Soldier's Life in Afghanistan Transcript
    Perspective Shifts Interviewer So today is May the third— Sebastian Junger Yeah. Interviewer 2011.  We’re in the studios of West Point Center for Oral History with Sebastian Junger.  And Sebastian, I would like to ask you—you know, there’s a lot of material we can go into, but since we’re here at West Point I’d like to focus on your most recent work, and ask you to tell me when you first got interested in war. Sebastian Junger I mean, I just have the assumption that every little boy is interested in war.  I remember growing up, you know, and all the adults that I knew had fought in World War II.  And when we played war, some of the boys had to play Germans, and no one wanted to play Germans, and everyone wanted to be Americans.  And the Vietnam War was going on, and so it started deploying with that.  But you know, like I—since I was a little boy, I mean it’s just—it’s exciting to pick up a crooked stick and pretend to shoot it at somebody.  I mean it says terrible things about the human species, I suppose, but that’s what little boys do—or a lot of them. Sebastian Junger And—but then after Vietnam, the Vietnam War was so controversial, and I—you know, I came from a part of society—Massachusetts, pretty liberal background—that was very, very against the war.  And the whole enterprise and the military and everything, I was just—found really unpleasant and distasteful, and that started to change after I started covering wars myself.

  • Justin Bieber Featuring Slipknot
    JUSTIN BIEBER FEATURING SLIPKNOT: Consumption as Mode of Production Ragnhild Brøvig-Hanssen A musical mash-up typically consists of two recognizable recordings that are synchronized such that the vocal(s) of one track are combined with an instrumental version of the other without significant edits.1 The ontological presence of a mash-up band is thus only to be found in the virtual domain––that is, the artists in question have never actually performed together. The virtual music collaborations enabled by mash-up producers invite us to encounter the musical result in ways that are very different from those we apply to non- virtual music collaborations, and, as scholars, we are therefore compelled to analyze the music in a different way as well. Moreover, mash-up music encourages us to rethink what musical authorship, creativity, and musicality means to us today. Because mash-ups often consist of nothing but macro-samples, and often simply of two full-length samples that have hardly been edited at all, mash-up producers have been criticized for lacking talent and creativity; for example, McLeod writes: “Despite my appreciation of them, I do not mean to idealise mash-ups because, as a form of creativity, they are quite limited and limiting.”2 This perspective might also help to explain why scholars usually approach the musical mash-up from a sociological or juridical orientation with a focus on its extramusical features, and, in 1 I am very grateful to Anne Danielsen, Hedda Høgåsen-Hallesby, Nils Nadeau, and Sheila Whiteley for their insightful comments on this chapter.
