    Derided as one-hit wonders, estranged from their original producer and  record label, and in self-imposed exile in Los Angeles, the Beastie Boys  were written off by most observers before even beginning to record  their second album - an embarrassing commercial flop that should have  ruined the group's career. But not only did "Paul's Boutique" eventually  transformed the Beasties from a fratboy novelty to hiphop giants, its  sample-happy, retro aesthetic changed popular culture forever.

    “For twelve years, others have tried to tell our story. Others have tried to put into words how two ten-year-old twins came to be called the biggest pop phenomenon in the Nordics. Now it’s our turn.” 
    Sold-out concerts, prestigious awards and screaming fans were everyday life for Marcus and Martinus for many years, but just as they were about to embark on their first world tour, everything they had built came crashing down. As the Covid-19 pandemic spread, the twin brothers found themselves isolated in their hometown, forced to face their first major crisis. While the situation gave them a rare opportunity to live a normal life, one question gnawed at them: Would their audience welcome them back — this time as adult artists? 
    For the first time, Marcus and Martinus share the darker side of growing up in the spotlight, the crash that threatened to destroy everything they had worked for, and the challenges of finding their own voices after always being seen as one half of a duo. 
    Marcus & Martinus burst onto the international music scene in 2012 and have since continued to captivate audiences with their charismatic performances. With millions of followers worldwide and over a billion streams, the Norwegian duo has sold out arenas across Scandinavia.

    A smart, engaging investigation of the show that brought real teens to TV My So-Called Life lasted only 19 episodes from 1994 to 1995, but in that time it earned many devoted viewers, including the showrunners who would usher in the teen TV boom of the late ’90s and the new millennium. With its focus on 15-year-old Angela Chase’s search for her identity, MSCL’s realistic representation of adolescence on TV was groundbreaking; without her there would be no Buffy or Felicity, Rory Gilmore or Veronica Mars. The series’ broadcast coincided with the arrival of third-wave feminism, the first feminist movement to make teen voices a priority, and Angela became their small-screen spokesperson. From her perspective, MSCL explored gender, identity, sexuality, race, class, body image, and other issues vital to the third wave (and the world). To this day, passionate fans dissect everything from what Rickie Vasquez did for gay representation to what Jordan Catalano did for leaning, and Soraya Roberts makes an invaluable contribution to that conversation with In My Humble Opinion.

    Sustainable urban infrastructure is an essential aspect of modern urban development, aimed at addressing the growing demands of urbanization while mitigating environmental impact and ensuring long-term social and economic prosperity. As the global population continues to shift toward urban areas, the challenges of managing and developing cities sustainably become increasingly complex. In this chapter, we explore the concept of sustainable urban infrastructure, its importance, and the challenges faced by planners and policymakers in creating systems that are both efficient and resilient. 
    Defining sustainable urban infrastructure involves understanding the integration of various urban systems in a way that promotes long-term environmental health, economic vitality, and social equity. This includes transportation systems that reduce emissions, energy-efficient buildings, and green spaces that enhance the quality of life. Sustainable infrastructure also emphasizes the responsible use of resources, such as water and energy, while minimizing waste and environmental degradation. It is not merely about constructing buildings and roads but about creating a holistic urban ecosystem that supports the needs of current and future generations. 
    The importance of sustainable development in urban infrastructure cannot be overstated. With the world’s urban population projected to reach 68% by 2050, cities will face immense pressure to provide housing, transport, and services while also minimizing their carbon footprint and adapting to climate change.
