I Play & Sing
Stalwarts of the local music scene, Mel & Joe have played, sung and done it all. Household names since they first appeared on television in 1971, Mel & Joe are not only two of Singapore’s best-loved musical talents, they are living proof of our rich musical past and vibrant present. From the early days of Talentimeand the black-and-white broadcasts of RTS (Radio Television Singapore) to their glorious heydays with one of Singapore's top bands, Gypsy, they continue to rock on with passion. Throughout their musical journey, family support – parents, siblings, wives and daughters – has been instrumental in giving them the love and inspiration that was needed to strive to continue to be the best they can be musically. Music brings the brothers even closer, and at the same time, continues to forge a strong spirit of camaraderie that they share with their audiences.

Shhhh!!!....Can Airport Talk?
The stories in here are mostly true. Ive had so many encounters in my life as a member of an airport ground crew. Im not sure if I can continue cranking out more volumes until all the stories I have (those I can recall anyway) have been written out. Im not expecting much from this book, though I do hope one or two chapters will open the eyes of married men and women to the fact that they should not take their marriages for granted and to keep the right kind of company. No malice is intended toward anybody. Books such as Coffee, Tea or Me? or the BBC series Come Fly with Me dont paint a complete picture about the lives of those working in airline industry. Not all of us were snared by honey traps and bribes. Airline staff meets all sorts of people, and temptations abound. Ultimately, it all depends on the person. I had a good thirty-three years of lessons working at the airport. I cherish and hold dear the experiences Ive gathered, the people Ive met, and the friends Ive made. I thank my friends and the passengers who encouraged me to pen this book.
Expertise and Architecture in the Modern Islamic World
Expertise and Architecture in the Modern Islamic World explores how architectural traditions and practices were shared and exchanged across national borders throughout the world, departing from a narrative that casts European actors as the importers and exporters of Islamic designs and skills. Looking to cases that touch on empire building, modernization, statecraft, and diplomacy, this book examines how these processes have been contingent on a web of expertise informed by a rich and varied array of authors and contexts since the 1800s. The chapters in this volume, organized around the leitmotif of expertise, demonstrate the thematic importance and specific utility of in-depth and broad-ran...
Flood Forecasting Using Machine Learning Methods
Nowadays, the degree and scale of flood hazards has been massively increasing as a result of the changing climate, and large-scale floods jeopardize lives and properties, causing great economic losses, in the inundation-prone areas of the world. Early flood warning systems are promising countermeasures against flood hazards and losses. A collaborative assessment according to multiple disciplines, comprising hydrology, remote sensing, and meteorology, of the magnitude and impacts of flood hazards on inundation areas significantly contributes to model the integrity and precision of flood forecasting. Methodologically oriented countermeasures against flood hazards may involve the forecasting of...

Mona
'Devil-may-care daring and biting humour . . . Think Rachel Cusk's autofiction on skunk and OxyContin and you're in the right ballpark' The Times 'Enjoyably mischievous and daring' Financial Times 'Ruthless, very funny' New York Times Mona is a Peruvian writer based on a Californian campus, open-eyed and sardonic, a connoisseur of marijuana and prescription pills. In the humanities she has discovered she is something of an anthropological curiosity - a female writer of colour treasured for the flourish of rarefied diversity that reflects so well upon her department. When she is nominated for 'the most important literary award in Europe', Mona sees a chance to escape her sunlit substance abuse and erotic distraction, and leaves for a small village in Sweden. Now she is stuck in the company of her competitors, who arrive from Japan, France, Armenia, Iran and Colombia. The writers do what writers do: exchange flattery, nurse envy and private resentments, stab rivals in the back and go to bed together. But all the while, Mona keeps stumbling across traces of violence on her body, the origins of which she can't - or won't - remember.
