Young Slasher, the latest from S. Elliot Brandis, is a slasher horror story that owes an awful lot to comic books, particularly Mark Millar's Kick-Ass and uber-scribe Grant Morrison. This is a story that wears its influences proudly on its sleeve and name-drops them with regularity, not necessarily to be cute to show off a measure of pop culture awareness, but because these are the things that shape and inform our titular killer, who goes by the very comic book-ish name of Mia Sanguine.
Mia is a real-life movie slasher for the twenty-first century. Inspired by comic books and horror movies, her psychopathy even comes with its own Spotify playlist so that she can kill with a punk soundtrack. Her origin story is rooted in modern-day Big Topics of our time, as her and her best friend are ridiculed and bullied by their high school peers. Mia was a late transfer to a private school filled with spoiled, rotten rich kids and her taste in fashion and music made her an outcast. Her friend Casey is struggling to define his sexuality and is routinely harassed by his bigoted, homophobic classmates. And so, they hatch a plot, inspired quite knowingly by Kick-Ass. They want to become real-life horror movie killers.
And although I stated above that this is a horror story, that's not entirely correct. It has all the benchmarks of a horror narrative – that sleek, cool looking cover; a terrific bit of the old ultraviolence; a fantastic slasher villain with an impressive array of cutlery and scorn – but Young Slasher is more accurately a fun work of metafiction. As Mia might say, this book is "meta as fuck!" and the meta narrative run multiple layers deep, reaching quite a bit beyond merely the fictional, fourth-wall breaking killer that fans of Deadpool will recognize.
Aside from being an interesting thought experiment and clever literary construct, this book would not work without a reason to care beyond picking out points of reference and trying to figure out what's real and what's not. That's where the characters come in. Mia is simply a fun girl to hang out with for the couple hundred-some pages that she exists in. She's brutal, but also empathetic, and, perhaps troublingly, somebody I could relate to.
As a victim of bullying during my own school years (being the only kid with a gnarly scar running the length of my chest from open heart surgery and unable to engage in the more rough-and-tumble aspects of gym class made me both an outcast and, since I couldn't run, easy pickings. When I eventually found comfort in junk food and became overweight, I was then the fat, scarred outcast), I found myself fully sympathetic to Mia and Casey. I could understand their urge to find primal satisfaction in waging war against their tormentors, even if, even at my lowest, I wouldn't have gone so far as to take an axe to somebody's head (although I'll admit to fancying some pretty dark daydreams about how to handle the idiot jock who liked to leave an empty seat between us so he could kick that empty desk over the seatback of my chair and into my spine over and over and over during high school Geometry).
Mia and Casey may want to be villains, but, like most fictional anarchists, there's a certain measure of joyful escapism to be had in their exploits. It's fun to watch them turn the tables on their bullies, even as they go far beyond the pale in their brutality, taking a beeline right away from justice and straight on to revenge.

Amazon Kindle readers have been enjoying my latest release, a short story called Let Go, for the last few months. Now, more readers will be able to check it out as
the infection my story spreads onto other platforms.
Let Go is now available on Nook and Kobo. I'm still waiting for the book to go live on iTunes and will update once a link to that store is available. If you're a Kindle reader, well, you can still find Let Go at Amazon, as always.
Here's the synopsis:
Widowed and with retirement drawing near, Everett Hart believes he has already lost everything – until the dead begin to rise.
Trapped in a cheap restaurant with a small band of other elderly survivors, Everett is forced to decide if he'll fight for whatever scraps of a future remain, or if he will simply… let go.
LET GO is a short story of approximately 10,000 words.
Hunter Shea, author of I Kill In Peace, The Montauk Monster, and the forthcoming Jersey Devil, called Let Go "poignant," and "an excellent addition to the zombie genre, a study not in bloodthirsty hordes but the internal struggles of one lonely, old man."
It's Everett's struggle that many reviewers have been most attracted to. In her review, Teri Polen said, "I wasn't expecting such an emotional read. Powerful imagery with outstanding characterization."
Amazon customer, Deb Robbins, wrote, "It's about Everett's emotional turmoil, so well described that it's profoundly sad to read… There's a great deal of emotion packed into this short story, and the ending made me teary-eyed. Excellent reading."
Amazon reader, Bill, succinctly states, "this is how short stories should be done."
Let Go is only 99c. My other books and short stories will soon be making their way onto more non-Amazon platforms soon, as well, so be sure to keep an eye out for updates on those releases, too!
There are a few authors whose novels are my own personal equivalent to comfort food. Stephen King is one; John Connolly is another. Every time I sit down with one of their stories, I know I'm in good hands, and their words bring a certain warmth to my soul. Connolly's Charlie Parker series, in particular, is like a big bowl of beef stew or mac & cheese eaten beside the fireplace and in the company of good friends. Over the course of fourteen novels, I consider Parker, Angel, and Louis very good friends, indeed. And, jeez, do I ever eat up these stories!
Connolly is a superb storyteller, first and foremost. His prose is both simple and elegantly constructed, and although he sometimes wanders off into tangents of both local and personal history for his settings and characters, I certainly don't mind reading those words even if I wonder at the necessity of their inclusion. Would A Time of Torment be better if some tangential segments were shortened? I suspect it wouldn't be by much, frankly, and, for me, it's a bit of the charm Connolly brings to the table. You can tell this man does his research, and he's eager to share what he's learned. And when you tell a story as well as Connolly, well…the more the better, in my opinion. He's a craftsman, and one of the best in the business as far I'm concerned.
As far as A Time of Torment is concerned, I feel a bit of sympathy for readers encountering this author and these characters here for the very first time. This is not a book for the inexperienced, and the Parker novels are very much a Read In Order series. This particular volume builds off the events, story, and character threads established in the prior three Parker thrillers, which themselves are shaped by the supernatural mythology of the preceding volumes. Characters like The Collector and Parker's daughter, Sam, who make brief appearances here will likely leave the uninitiated scratching their head as to their importance. Those who have been around since the beginning, though, will be much more appreciative of their roles in the overarching mythology of the series as a whole. My advice, as always, to anyone who hasn't read Connolly yet is to start from the very beginning with Every Dead Thing.
Plot-wise, Parker is hired by a recently released prisoner, who quickly goes missing. Parker's subsequent investigation brings to his attention a small cult-like community known as The Cut, and their religious idol, The Dead King.
There's echoes of Prosperous, the community featured in The Wolf In Winter, but not so much that it feels like a total retread. There's enough differences in The Cut's actions, history, and characters to differentiate them from Prosperous, and, in some ways, make them a dark mirror reflection of an already nasty bunch. They're darker, and, to a degree, one might even say more primitive. Then again, so, too, is Charlie Parker. It's the events of that prior novel that have helped shape the subtle alterations in Parker's persona and methods. The detective has become a more aggressive hunter, very much so a wolf in his own right. And the Cut is certainly worthy of his particular brand of attention.
A Time of Torment is a bit slower paced than previous installments, but not detrimentally so. If anything, for me, it just means it takes a bit more time to savor and enjoy, and I was left feeling perfectly satiated. Now begins the wait, once more, for the next book…

Original post:
Today, I've got a guest article from a new up-and-coming horror author, John Quick. John made his debut earlier this year with his slasher movie-inspired horror novel, Consequences (you can read my review here). One of the elements of Consequences that I greatly enjoyed involved a character named Crazy Freddy, who, in the 1970s, murdered his family in such grisly fashion that he was then cemented in local history as an urban legend. Watch out, or Crazy Freddy will getcha!
Well, it turns out that Crazy Freddy is, indeed, a real-life urban legend and the inspiration for John's novel. Read on, and check out John's photos of Crazy Freddy's stomping ground below. (Thanks for making the drive out there, John – I'm glad you made it back in one piece!)
I was in high school when I first heard about Crazy Freddy. I can't remember the conversation up to that point, but—as in the book—I think it was part of a discussion about where to have a party that weekend. Someone mentioned "heading out to Crazy Freddy's", and was shot down. I asked one of my friends where that was, and was told it was a place out by the lake where a guy went nuts back in the fifties and killed his family. He'd hung them up with barbed wire and skinned them alive, it seemed, and his ghost was supposed to still be wandering around out there, doomed because of what he'd done.
Like I said, I was in high school, and since I was a teenager and knew everything, my immediate reaction was to laugh it off. After all, this was the first time I'd ever heard of such a thing, and I'd lived in this area my entire life. Couldn't possibly be real. Right?
My friend insisted it was, and I kept denying, and eventually we moved on to other things. He never retracted his story, and I never fully believed it, and so we settled into a routine with it.
The place he talked about did actually exist. Since it was pretty far off the main roads, people would occasionally dump things out there, so whenever we would have a party that required a bonfire, a trip to Crazy Freddy's was in order to collect things to burn. Tires worked the best, and I shudder to think how many nights I was partying next to burning rubber, inhaling those probably toxic fumes. Might explain some things, though….
Other things about the story as it eventually appeared in my mind were real as well: namely the old man who lived at the turn-off onto the gravel road that led back to the place. If there were lights on at that house, you never went down to Freddy's. If you did, you were lucky if all that happened was he called the cops on you. If you weren't so lucky and he was feeling especially brave, he would come down and run you off with a shotgun in his hands. But if you were careful, you could get down there and out again without being seen.
This even got mentioned in the book itself:
"It is," Austin confirmed. "But we came up with a better idea. We're going out to Crazy Freddy's."
Christopher stopped walking and turned to face Austin. "Tell me you're kidding."
Austin smiled. "What, you scared or something?"
"Of that old legend? No. Of getting shot by that nutcase that lives at the end of the street? Yeah, a little."
The shack was still there; Christopher had even seen it on occasion when he was younger and they would head out there on a dare or something. He'd never seen any ghost though. What he had seen was the old man who lived at the corner of the main road and the gravel road that led to that shack. He supposed the old coot was tired of kids mucking around in his back yard, chasing ghost stories. The last time Christopher and a couple of his buddies had taken a freshman out there to scare the shit out of him, the old man chased them off with a shotgun. That had been two years ago, and he had no desire to repeat the experience.
I never saw Freddy's ghost, but that doesn't mean the place wasn't strange. The creek behind the house that I mentioned in the book is there, and on bright nights, the moon would reflect off the water and create strange shapes on the trees, which might be where all the talk of a ghost came from. Back then, the woods would almost close in on you as you got closer to the end of the gravel road, giving the place a claustrophobic feel. And without fail, if you made it down to Freddy's and back, once you turned onto the semi-main road you could look behind you and see what looked like the headlights of an old truck following you. After a mile or so, they'd disappear. Note I didn't say "the truck turned off" or anything like that; they were just there one second and not there the next. Logically, it could have been the old man trying to get the license number of the vehicle you were in, but when you're a teenager going somewhere you shouldn't, where does logic fit into the picture?
The last time I ever went there as a teenager, I was lucky and it was the cops that came to run me off. They asked what I was doing, and I told them I'd heard the legend of Crazy Freddy, and was curious if it was true or not. By this point, I'd seen the "ghost lights" after all, so in a way it was true. That wasn't the only reason I was there, but you can fill in the blanks for why a teenager might be in a secluded area without my prompting, I'm sure. The cops were actually pretty cool about it, and while they never confirmed or denied the legend (adding to the mystery in my head, naturally), they did inform me that I was on private property and the guy at the end of the road didn't appreciate kids ignoring that fact. They watched as I turned around and left, and I stayed away for over twenty years.
Let's fast-forward.
That legend stayed with me as I grew to adulthood, got married, and had kids of my own. I would pull it out on occasion while we were camping as a "real-life" ghost story, always embellishing to make it scarier. I think some unconscious part of me realized it would make a good book, but I never thought too much about it.
Then I read The Dark Ones by Bryan Smith. Some of the things he mentioned seemed extremely familiar to me, so I reached out to him and discovered that he'd grown up not far from me, and had actually lived very close to where Crazy Freddy's was. I asked if that legend had played a part in The Dark Ones, and he said it must have been after his time. The pieces clicked; the story was still waiting to be told.
My next vacation from the day job, I sat down with my laptop and a bottle of Bushmill's and started writing the opening scene, where Judy comes home to discover something wrong. For a writer who drinks while they write, there's a magic point where the alcohol has lubricated the words and helped them flow. I went a couple drinks beyond that. When I read what I'd written the next day, I discovered I'd spent five pages describing the front door. Needless to say, I deleted it, and shelved the idea.
But it never went away. When I decided I was going to be serious about writing more recently, it was the first idea that came to me. I sat down and tried again, on another vacation, and this time, it worked.
I did things differently beyond keeping the whiskey on the shelf, though. Namely, I researched it. Surprise, surprise, but as best I could tell, there was no real "Crazy Freddy" in this town. I'd been right to disbelieve. That just meant I could do whatever I wanted with it. The result is Consequences.
And in case you're curious, yes, Crazy Freddy's is still around. The legend hasn't been told in a long, long time—at least not to my knowledge—but that winding gravel road is right where it's always been, untouched by modern development. The old man is long gone, too, though I doubt he met the same fate that I gave him.
My wife asked about the place as I was gearing up to release the book, not realizing it was real, and since we didn't have anything in particular to do that day, I took her out there. It's changed over the years, in many ways for the worse (I wouldn't recommend attempting the trip without a four-wheel drive), but driving back out there was like going back in time despite the changes. One thing that didn't change? It's still creepy as hell, especially as winter nears its end, as it was when we went back. There's no shack, but then, there never was one, at least not that I ever saw. Who knows? Maybe a bunch of kids accidentally burned it to the ground. Maybe Crazy Freddy was watching.
And maybe I never heard about it because he got to them first.
About Consequences
It was a summer of blood and terror…
For seven friends, graduation night was supposed to be a time to celebrate the end of their high school careers and the start of their real lives.

My original WOLF HUNT audiobook review and many others can be found at Audiobook Reviewer.
I imagine Jeff Strand's elevator pitch for Wolf Hunt being along the lines of 'The Sopranos Meet The Wolfman.' If this intrigues you, then it's really about all that needs to be said of Strand's funny, bloody werewolf romp. Frankly, it's all I would have needed to be hooked straightaway. If this does not intrigue you, then I'm afraid I can't help you.
George and Lou are not exactly made guys, and deny even being mobsters at all, but they are clearly some well-connected thugs who have little problem breaking thumbs over debts owed to their bosses. They're tasked with transporting a bad dude named Ivan across Florida to a crime lord, with Ivan locked in a cage. Strand sets up his story in a fun way, with a lot of dispute over Ivan's credentials as a werewolf and plenty of is-he or isn't-he back and forth (George and Lou aren't buying it, and Ivan has fun stringing them along). Things quickly go south, and after saving and accidentally kidnapping Michelle, the thugs are in a race to stop Ivan before he can wreak all kinds of carnage across the Sunshine State.
Strand does a beautiful job balancing wit with werewolf violence, and one early scene in particular stands out as being a gruesomely effective showcase to Ivan's psychopathy, while also solidifying the bloody courtship between he and George. Although Wolf Hunt has a number of gory instances, there's a certain lightness to the work as a whole thanks to a lot of humorous banter and a handful of characters that are actually fun to spend seven hours with.
Besides Stand's quirkiness, a lot of this fun is owed to narrator Scott Thomas, who seems to be enjoying himself quite a bit and effortlessly brings the material to life. He provides each character with a distinct voice and speech pattern, which makes it easy to discern who is saying what during stretches of dialogue, and keeps the listen fresh throughout. Thomas hits all the right notes and delivers an excellent performance. The production values are fine, too, and Thomas' work comes through without a hitch.
If you're looking for a genuinely fun and comedic horror listen, Wolf Hunt definitely stands out from the pack.

Original post:
After five Extinction Cycle novels (and a sixth on the way!), Hell Divers, the first installment in a brand-new series from Nicholas Sansbury Smith, is a refreshing change of pace. While it has all the hallmarks of Smith's usual brand of brimstone and bullets, its premise goes a long way in making this a distinct entry in this author's oeuvre.
In both the Orbs and Extinction Cycle books, Smith approaches his doomsday scenarios as fresh threats to humanity on the brink of destruction with The End Of The World As We Know It just right around the corner or rapidly in progress. In Hell Divers, the apocalypse has already happened and, two hundred years after Trump's presidency later, mankind has been reduced to roughly a thousand souls spread out across two airships, the Ares and the Hive. The Earth below them is a radioactive wasteland, the skies treacherous with the constant threat of electrical storms. After Ares is damaged, the Hell Divers (think futuristic paratroopers with wildly short lifespans) aboard the Hive are sent on a rescue mission. Soon enough, they find out the ground is not as lifeless as they thought, as marauding bands of vicious creatures they dub Sirens are out to get them.
One thing Smith does exceptionally well are action scenes, and there's plenty of those to go around here as Xavier Rodriguez (otherwise known as X) and his team do battle across frozen wastelands, and the shipboard Militia stave off homegrown threats, as well as more elemental troubles. When the Divers do their diving, there's some legitimate excitement to the sequences and Smith does a terrific job describing this horrific adrenaline rush. Ground combat is equally fierce, although the Sirens could use a little more oomph. As a fan of the Extinction Cycle series, I didn't find these mutant killers quite as intriguing as the Variants. However, with two more books on the way, Smith certainly has plenty of space left to flesh out the concepts introduced here.
On the character front, X is the strong dashing male hero, and Captain Ash is the strong-willed woman in charge of the Hive – both are great characters, and get their own moments to shine. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more about these characters, as well as their lives aboard ship, and the ten-year-old Tin has all the makings of a heroic prodigy if he survives all the threats life in the skies brings.
There's a lot about Hell Divers that feels comfortably familiar, but Smith freshens it up with a new coat of paint and shakes up the formula of his previous series enough to avoid feeling derivative of his other apocalyptic military thrillers. I think he's on to the start of something that could be pretty bold here, and I'm excited to see what he has in store for the Hive, and readers, with future installments. Onward and upward!

Original post:
This is a pretty long and personal post. It's really just a way for me to organize my thoughts and try to cope with some recent tragedy. Writing is what I do and it helps me process things, and I'm in serious need of some hardcore mental processing at the moment. I lost my mother yesterday, and this post is an effort to try and grapple with that loss.
A little past 8:30 Friday morning, my father called. Mom had stopped breathing and was being rushed by ambulance to the hospital. I called my wife, who was at a doctor's appointment, and we agreed to meet at home to pack up whatever we might need for us and our nine-month-old. Mom and Dad lived north of us, a roughly five-hour drive, and we were finally able to hit the road at 12:00 p.m.
Mom died around 12:30. I had hoped to be able to see her one last time before she passed. I'm trying to steel myself for when I see her next at the funeral home. Sitting now in my parent's living room, her absence is notable, even as my son's laughter fills the silence as he bounces around in his jumper.
The week Benjamin was born, Mom broke her hip. She missed his birth, and we made tentative plans for Christmas, thinking she'd be mobile enough that her and Dad could come downstate and finally see their grandson in person for the first time. Her physical therapy was going slower than expected. She was recovering and doing well, but she wasn't physically ready for such a long car ride. Then there were complications with the hip replacement that resulted in her needing a second surgery to replace the replacement. Physical therapy started over again, and somewhere along the line a nerve in her leg was damaged leaving it largely immobile.
Mom was a tough woman. She would never admit when she had a health problem. Anytime she was noticeably sick, she passed it off as being her allergies. When she fell and broke her hip, she refused to go directly to the hospital because she was, in typical Mom fashion, "fine." She just needed to lay down for a little bit, nothing more. On the few occasions that Dad did have to force her to go to the hospital, she was a massive brat. He'd never hear the end of it, and she'd be snotty with the medical staff. It was always very, very clear that she did not want to be bothered with a hospital stay and that she was being forced to do something clearly against her will. After three days of being laid up in bed with a broken hip, she finally caved and admitted maybe something might be wrong.
For whatever reason, she never admitted, on her last day with us, that maybe something might be wrong again. Her heart stopped Friday morning due to sepsis from a perforation in her bowels (I'm unclear on the cause, but this may have been from a stomach ulcer). According to the doctor, she should have been in quite a bit of pain. If she was, she never admitted it. Instead, she kept it hidden and dealt with it, or simply flat-out denied it to herself and everyone around her.
She was resuscitated long enough to be placed on a ventilator. Her heart was stopped and restarted four times over the course of the early morning. Surgery to repair the perforation was not an option; she was too weak and too unstable to survive it. If she survived, though, it would likely be with brain damage. A few hours later, a massive heart attack struck. She was gone.
I have a few consolations in all this. She didn't suffer, for one (at least according to the doctors, and as far as we know…but really, the only who knows that can no longer tell us. We can only guess or presume). She wouldn't go on with a reduced capacity in life, or live with brain damage, or be hooked up to a ventilator long-term in a vegetative state. These are not things she would have wanted, I don't think, given her stubbornness and strong-willed nature. And, a few months ago, she was able to meet her grandson, which I'll be forever grateful for.
Still unable to travel, we made the trip to them on Easter. Mom got to meet Benny, and he was finally able to put a face to the voice he'd heard over the telephone. He'll never remember it, of course; he was far too young at only six months for that to stick. But I'll remember it. And I'll remember the smile on both their faces, and the laughter they shared.
As it turns out, that was also the last time I got to see Mom. She was frail, weakened, thinner than I'd ever seen her. The hip damage and surgeries had taken a lot out of her. Even as a woman in her seventies, she somehow looked older. Physically, it was a reminder that there were less and less days ahead, and as her problems with her hip progressed I couldn't help but wonder how many more surgeries she could survive.
To say I was ready for that Friday morning phone call, though, would be wildly incorrect. I was deeply shaken by it, and after I hung up with Dad I had about a hundred thoughts swirling through my head, an odd balance of panic, terror, and knowing that I had to be strong enough to take care of more than a few things at once.
Now, roughly twenty-four hours after her passing, I'm not quite sure what exactly I should be feeling. Sadness, sure. There's plenty of that, and I've had a few crying fits already. But there's also this void. I feel somewhat caught in limbo, waiting for something more to happen. Her dying while I was still several hours away has me wondering if I missed any chance for closure. Do I have to wait for that moment of finality when I see her at the funeral home? Is there any closure at all, or will it merely be the passage of time that eases this ache? I wish I knew.
As a public school teacher, Mom touched a lot of lives. I hope that she at least made an impact on a few of those students, and maybe even inspired them, as much as she did me. I miss her. I wish I could have seen her one last time. And I'm glad my son had a chance to meet her at all, or rather that I at least got to see them meet. Like me, though, he's going to grow up never having known his grandmother (I never knew any of my grandparents at all; Benny, though, will have both his grandmother and grandfather on his mother's side for the foreseeable future).
Mom also had a large impact on my friend, also named Mike, the closest I've ever gotten to having a brother. She was like a second mom to him, and every time he came over she had a meal ready for him, anything from steak to bean dip to some pie. It was those meals, I think, that really helped define us all as a family. And it's in some of those recipes of hers that she'll live on. I can't imagine making her particular steak marinade, a few of her casserole dishes, or her spaghetti pie, and not thinking of her. And I know those dishes won't be quite the same; she added something to them that goes beyond whatever she's scratched down on some notepad sheets stuffed into her cookbooks that is impossible to replicate. Still, there's a sort of physical legacy in those dishes, a way to keep her near despite the absence, and something that I can pass down.
Now begins the hard part. The really hard stuff. The funeral and figuring out all that stuff. The financial stuff. Finding her will. Helping Dad deal with all of this as we help each other. Thankfully my wife is awesome and is already putting her Google-Fu to work trying to figure out what we need to do and how we do it. Right now, that all feels like more heartache than anything else. We're not ready for it, not yet, but we'll have to be soon.
First, though, is a much-needed change of scenery. Although my parent's house is on the lake shore, I think we're due to get out of the house for a bit. We're going to head downtown for a little while, and I'm going to enjoy the company of my wife and son.
[Edit: We found a new place in downtown Traverse City called Taproot Cider House, which, as you may surmise from the title, is a cider house! They've got all kinds of tasty hard cider concoctions. I was able to clear my head a bit with the El Chavo, a hard apple cider blended with habanero pepper and mango. Walking along the bay for a bit helped, too. Fresh air really does wonders.]
Yesterday, before we left the house to travel north, I held Benny close and told him, "I love you." And then my nine-month old boy said those words back to me. I can't even begin to explain how badly I needed that, and, even if it was just simply mimicry, it felt good to hear. I needed to hear it then, and I wouldn't mind hearing it again now. I lost my mother, but thankfully I still have my family and they're doing more for me than I can properly express.

Goa warns Mallya breweries over pollutants
Panaji: Goa Wednesday warned liquor baron Vijay Mallya-owned breweries of strict action for violation of anti-pollution laws in the state.
Distilleries owned and run by Mallya`s group are located at the Bethora industrial estate, 40 km from here.
Environment Minister Alina Saldanha told the Goa assembly that an inspection was done of a water body in which United Breweries (UB) and United Spirits (US) were releasing their industrial sewage. The released water was found to contain pollutants more than at the permissible limit.
"In view of the above, the board (Goa State Pollution Control Board) had issued a show cause notice to the units of United Breweries and United Spirits," the minister said.
"The board will initiate further action against the units in accordance with law in order to ensure that untreated or treated... sewage is not discharged into the nallah (water body)," Saldanha said.
The government will also conduct surprise raids to ensure that the pollution levels are checked at all times.

Sony Talkman
- Functional, Has some potential
- Slow, Microphone performance, Sketchy voice recognition, Limited amount of responses
Bottom Line
Language students may find it helpful, but most holidaymakers will find that they are better off with that most old-fashioned of translators, a papery foreign language dictionary.
Price$ 79.95 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 2 stores)
Ever been surrounded by people who couldn't speak a word of English, unable to get your message across? Now imagine, if you will, a videogame that could solve communication problems such as this and provide a little fun on the side. That is essentially what Sony's TalkMan promises - a new peripheral accessory for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). While it does work to some degree, there are a few notable flaws that mean this product isn't all it could be.
With a packed-in microphone peripheral, TalkMan acts as a translator for English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. By saying what you need translated into the microphone, you can get an approximation of what you said in any of the available languages.
The microphone simply plugs into the bottom of your PSP and is fastened via a scrolling lock wheel. We felt its performance could have been better, as you need to speak fairly close to it for TalkMan to hear you. This isn't practical when you are on holidays, especially when you are in the middle of a noisy cafe or restaurant, for example.
Purely as a game TalkMan is not particularly fun, and as a translator it is functional but flawed. The voice recognition is sketchy at best, and while it could conceivably help a truly clueless traveller out of a bind, the limited responses included in the system means that it won't actually help you converse with anyone. TalkMan merely allows you to ask them basic questions such as if you can use their toilet, or find out where your hotel is located.
The game features some popular scenarios and locations, such as the beach or a hotel and you can select phrases from each of these with help from the game's character, Max. You simply select a response from the menu and TalkMan will read this out loud for you. Alternatively, if one of the 3000 responses isn't what you're after, you can use voice recognition to see if TalkMan can understand what you are trying to say. This is achieved simply by holding down the square button and speaking closely into the microphone.
In addition to a translator, TalkMan also offers a game mode where you are able to learn basic discussion in each of the six languages. We found these largely hit and miss though, as your trusty friend Max's reports aren't always accurate. Particularly annoying was the tendency for TalkMan to vary his ratings - even when the phrase is spoken almost identically.
TalkMan is also let down by sluggish load times and this detracts from the experience. Waiting for TalkMan to respond while you are struggling to converse with someone speaking a foreign language is a very frustrating process. Overall, while TalkMan has some potential, Sony hasn't quite hit the mark just yet. Unless you travel regularly and want the novelty value TalkMan offers, stick with a foreign language dictionary.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Chesapeake Greens Up Logo, Launches American Clean Skies Foundation
Natural gas producer Chesapeake Energy Corporation has introduced a new logo featuring a distinctive green element that the company hopes will get consumers to associate natural gas with sound environmental choices.
A bright green stroke is the most notable addition to the new logo. "This element suggests the earth and visibly communicates the company's commitment to the environment," said Chesapeake's chairman and CEO, Aubrey K. McClendon.
In his email to Chesapeake's 5,000 employees that rolled out the new "Clean and Green" logo, McClendon said that Chesapeake and the natural gas industry can help solve the energy and environmental challenges the country and the world are facing in the years ahead.
McClendon also said that Chesepeake was founding the American Clean Skies Foundation, which will be based in Washington, D.C. and headed by Denise Bode upon her resignation from Oklahoma's Corporation Commission at the end of May.
McClendon indicated in an interview with The Hill that the foundation would not be afraid to challenge Big Coal, despite that industry's powerful backers on Capitol Hill.
"We will be an aggressive and forceful advocate of natural gas, and I should add, effective," McClendon said.
Chesapeake was a sponsor of the "Face It: Coal is Filthy" advertising campaign that drew rebuke from Rep. Nick Rahall on the House floor.

- Qualcomm (QCOM -0.5%), via its Atheros Wi-Fi/connectivity chip unit, is buying DSL modem/infrastructure IC and home gateway processor vendor Ikanos (NASDAQ:IKAN) for $2.75/share, or roughly $47M based on Ikanos' Q2 diluted share count. The price represents a 57% premium to Ikanos' Wednesday close. The deal is expected to close by year's end.
- Ikanos' products complement Qualcomm/Atheros home Wi-Fi and wireline networking offerings. Qualcomm: "The combination of Qualcomm Atheros' broad home gateway IP portfolio, including Wi-Fi, powerline, small cell, and Ethernet switch technologies, and Ikanos' advanced wired modem technology, is designed to create a complete solution for a wide range of home gateway products to better serve the carrier segment." Broadcom (NASDAQ:BRCM) and Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) are among the other companies competing in this space.
- Qualcomm CEO Steve Mollenkopf suggested last week his company would make new chip acquisitions.
Aug. 5, 2015, 11:22 AM
- Citi has upgraded Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) to Neutral a day after a federal appeals court (the CAFC) cut the infringement award levied against the company in a Carnegie Mellon suit to $278M from $1.54B. The firm had launched coverage at Sell in late May, calling the company a value trap.
- The CAFC agreed Marvell infringed CMU's patents, as well as a Pennsylvania jury's ruling that Marvell owed $0.50 for each infringing hard drive controller chip sold in the U.S. However, it threw out a 23% enhanced damages increase to the original jury award, and stated a new trial is needed to decide if royalties are owed on chips that never enter the U.S. Many tech companies are pleased with the latter decision.
Aug. 4, 2015, 10:15 AM
- A federal appeals court (the CAFC) has upheld a Pennsylvania jury's ruling that Marvell (MRVL +0.4%) infringed hard drive controller patents owned by Carnegie Mellon, but has excluded enhanced damages and foreign chip sales.
- As a result, the infringement award has been slashed to $278M from the $1.54B set last year, following a $1.17B 2012 jury verdict. Marvell initially spiked higher on the news, but has quickly pared its gains.
Jul. 17, 2015, 4:16 PM
- Not content with its recent ~$37B cash/stock deal to merge with Broadcom (BRCM +0.2%), acquisition-hungry Avago (AVGO -0.8%) is looking to bid for Broadcom rival Marvell (MRVL +0.5%), "a reputable source" tells Light Reading.
- Marvell moved slightly higher following the report. With a current $6.7B market cap - a deal could require a price above $8B - Marvell would be a relatively easy fish to swallow. However, its product line overlaps with Broadcom's in the Ethernet transceiver, Ethernet switching chip, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo chip markets (among other areas), and the Ethernet overlap could result in antitrust scrutiny.
- There has been speculation Avago isn't done with its buyout binge. The company snapped up LSI, PLX Technology, and Emulex prior to the Broadcom deal, and has a good track record of reaping major cost synergies from acquisitions.
- Meanwhile, Marvell has been viewed as a potential acquisition target as the chip industry continues consolidating. Shares rose earlier this week on a report of buyout interest from state-owned Chinese firm PDSTI.
Jul. 13, 2015, 4:32 PM
- "When the company announced a confusing merger with Alcatel-Lucent ... we used the opportunity to exit with a healthy gain," writes David Einhorn in his Q2 letter, explaining Greenlight Capital's unloading of its Nokia (NYSE:NOK) position.
- Regarding his decision to exit EMC, Einhorn cites "the reduced odds of any favorable change to the corporate structure and increasing concerns about a lack of growth in the storage business." EMC is 4 months removed from formally stating it doesn't plan to spin off its 80% VMware stake.
- Regarding Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL), a position held for years, Einhorn cites weak PC demand as a reason for exiting following a 15% compounded annual return. His disclosure comes on a day Marvell rose 5.4% thanks to a report of buyout interest from a Chinese investment firm.
- Echoing the bullish arguments he has made for rival Lam Research (NASDAQ:LRCX), Einhorn says he took a small position in Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT) out of a belief AMAT's core etch/deposition equipment markets will outgrow the broader chip equipment industry "due to the increased use of 'multi-patterning' to produce chips at geometries below [20nm]." He predicts results will improve as management turns its attention from the abandoned Tokyo Electron merger towards "growth and cost savings opportunities." With Einhorn's help, AMAT rose 2.9% today.
- "It's a cyclical business and, regrettably, we missed the turn of the cycle," says Einhorn about Micron (NASDAQ:MU), Greenlight's biggest Q2 loser. However, he still thinks the DRAM industry is acting more rationally following consolidation, notes shares trade at "less than 12x annualized trough earnings and less than 5x prior peak earnings," and predicts future cycles will have higher peaks and troughs.
- Over the long run, Einhorn expects Micron ($19.1B market cap) to be worth more than Netflix (NFLX - $42.9B market cap), whose recent surge he considers quite unjustified. "In today's market, the best performing stocks are companies with exciting stories where accountability is in the distant future." He adds Season 3 of House of Cards "appeared to be scripted to compete with Ambien,"
- Worth noting: While Einhorn has a good track record going long, his short picks have been more hit-and-miss.
Jul. 13, 2015, 11:33 AM
- Sources have told dealReporter Marvell (MRVL +4%) has received buyout interest from Chinese investment firm PDSTI.
- Cowen's Tim Arcuri (Outperform, $18 target): "While we think there is underlying truth to a deal being in the works, the idea that the entire company would be acquired seems a stretch to us." He continues to expect a deal for an equity stake in Marvell's mobile baseband chip unit (believed to be losing money, depends heavily on Chinese sales) rather than a full-blown buyout.
- Earlier: Marvell jumps on Chinese M&A rumor
Jul. 13, 2015, 10:00 AM
- Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) has popped thanks to a vague rumor state-owned Chinese investment firm PDSTI has offered to buy the company.
- This isn't the first time Marvell has jumped on a rumor of Chinese buyout interest. China has been aggressively acquiring chip industry assets over the last 12 months.
- Update: Sources tell dealReporter Marvell has seen interest from PDSTI.
Jun. 25, 2015, 5:35 PM
Jun. 18, 2015, 11:12 AM
- Noting FY16 (ends Jan. '16) EPS estimates have been cut by ~50% over the last 7 months and that Chinese phone sales "improved somewhat" in May, Goldman's Mark Delaney has upgraded Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) to Neutral, and hiked his target by $2 to $14.
- Delaney believes mobile baseband ASP/share pressure, SSD controller share loss, and PC hard controller inventory draw-down are priced in. He also expects chip industry M&A to improve pricing.
- At the same time, he argues investor focus will now turn to two issues deemed "difficult to gauge": Whether Marvell will find a strategic option for a baseband unit estimated to burn $100M-$200M/year in cash and hurt annual EPS by $0.20-$0.40, and the outcome of Marvell's Carnegie Mellon lawsuit appeal.
- Morgan Stanley upgraded to Overweight last month following Marvell's mixed FQ1 results and soft FQ2 guidance, and Citi started at Sell.
Jun. 16, 2015, 5:38 PM
May 29, 2015, 11:06 AM
- Believing the company is unlikely to unload its money-losing mobile baseband chip unit (as sought by many on the sell-side), Citi's Atif Malik has launched coverage on Marvell (MRVL -1.9%) with a Sell rating and $13 target.
- Malik: "We do not view MRVL as a viable long-term cellular baseband provider in 4G handset market given fierce pricing competition… and weak positioning at flagship handset makers." He forecasts slow growth in 2015/2016. "After outgrowing the chip industry over? the last ten years by 5 percent, we model MRVL's revenue growth to decelerate and underperform the industry by 3 percent in the next 2-3 years."
- The upgrade arrives 8 days after Marvell provided light FQ2 guidance, and 3 days after Morgan Stanley went contrarian and upgraded to Overweight. Among other things, MS cited optimism about Marvell's Final-Level Cache (FLC) tech, which the company hopes to apply to its mobile processors (among other products).
- Shares joined other chip stocks in rallying this week on hopes Marvell rival Broadcom's merger with Avago will spark more industry M&A.
May 27, 2015, 5:41 PM
May 26, 2015, 9:34 AM
- Believing its risk/reward has become more favorable, Morgan Stanley has upgraded Marvell (MRVL +1.7%) to Overweight 4 days after shares tumbled due to the company's soft FQ2 guidance, and hiked its target by $2.50 to $17.50.
- MS (like others on the sell-side) argues Marvell's earnings would receive a boost if the company exited the mobile baseband processor market - Nvidia became the latest firm to exit earlier this month. It's also upbeat about Marvell's Final-Level Cache (FLC) tech, which places an SSD within a computer's main memory and thereby aims to cut the amount of DRAM needed by a system (inc. mobile devices).
- On its FQ1 CC (transcript), Marvell claimed FLC can allow a hard drive to perform like an SSD 99.9% of the time. "Using this technology, we can now build a 1 terabyte consumer hybrid drive with FLC cache for only $40 of bill of material compared to a 1 terabyte SSD which would otherwise cost $300 of bill of material ... it is not a matter of if but a matter of when the HDD industry adopts our FLC technology to power all of their hard drives." Shipments are expected to start in early 2016.
- MS on FLC's impact on Marvell's baseband ops: "Our view is that the push around the new technology clarifies the management decision-making progress, and is the reason management has been expressing guarded optimism despite more flexible language on long term investment ... if FLC fails to make a difference, we expect the company to cut back investment."
May 22, 2015, 12:47 PM
May 21, 2015, 5:30 PM
- Along with its FQ1 report, Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) has announced CFO Mike Rashkin (only took on the job in Dec. 2013, originally as interim CFO) is retiring following 16 years with the company.
- Finance VP Sukhi Nagesh has been named interim CFO while the company looks for a successor.
- Marvell's FQ1 results, guidance/details

Gay penguins resist split attempts

Gay Penguins are awesome… Hell Yea!!!!!
I totally AGREE for lack of a better word to describe this. FREAKING AWESOME
Little gay penguins! How cute! I like the way the Swedish girl penguins are 'stand offish'. Are they actually gay though? Do they miss the company of each other when they pine or are they lovers or what?
Too bad for the ZOO, though :). What makes this story particularly intersting to me is sudden sailience of the usually unspoken issue that the 'state' has with homosexual relationships– the discourse depressingly overcast with moral arguments, namely the reproduction problem and hence the scarcety of population resources.
well what do they expect calling one of them Slash?! :P
(second google result for Slash!) – gay fanfiction
aww they're so cute, give them a real egg, nursing pebbles is so sweet but so sad :( glad they were reunited, naww!
well slash = gay fanfiction so.. appropriate name!
nursing pebbles = sad :( give them real egg
glad they were reunited!
[…] The Pink News reported in 2005 that Silo and Roy, New York's famous 'gay' chinstrap penguins split after they had "been living together as husband and husband for the past six years." […]

Zurich to Basel
Report Abuse
Well you could stay in either one - but Zurich is primarily a business city and I find Basel terminally boring (the sidewalks roll up at 6 pm). I would head for Lucerne - which is a very cute town with several interesting sights and easy access to Mt Pilatus or Mt Rigi - via lake steamer or train.
Report Abuse
Basel has some interesting museums: the Music museum in the old city jail, the Fondation Beyerler for contemporary art, a history museum in an old mansion with a great collection of watches. Its fine arts museum is weak unless it has a special exhibit.
Report Abuse
...and the big Picasso exhibition at Kunstmuseum. Otherwise: gothic cathedral, marvellous town hall, medieval city center.....
Overseas poeple usually don't like scenc small medieval towns. If you are an exception, check Rheinfelden, Laufenburg, Schaffhausen/Rheinfall, Waldshut, Solothurn ,,,, all less than 1 hr by train from Basel.
Report Abuse
We actually have two nights to find hotels between Zurich and Basel. I have a room in Basel - so will spend one night there before the river cruise. I am looking for something between the two cities.

Otto Linné Erdmann
|Otto Linné Erdmann
Otto Linné Erdmann
11 April 1804
Dresden, Germany
|9 October 1869
(aged 65)
Leipzig, Germany
Otto Linné Erdmann (11 April 1804 – 9 October 1869) was a German chemist. He was the son of Karl Gottfried Erdmann, the physician who introduced vaccination into Saxony.
He was born in Dresden on 11 April 1804. In 1820 he began to attend the medico-chirurgical academy of his native place, and in 1822 he entered the University of Leipzig, where in 1827 he became an associate professor, and in 1830 a full professor of chemistry. This office he held until his death, which happened at Leipzig on 9 October 1869.
He was particularly successful as a teacher, and the laboratory established at Leipzig under his direction in 1843 was long regarded as a model institution. As an investigator he is best known for his work on nickel and indigo and other dye-stuffs. With R. F. Marchand (1813–1850) he also carried out a number of determinations of atomic weights.
In 1828 he founded the Journal für technische und ökonomische Chemie,[1] which became in 1834 the Journal für praktische Chemie.[2] From 1853 A. F. G. Werther (1815–1869) was an editor of the journal.[3] Erdmann was also the author of Über das Nickel (1827), Lehrbuch der Chemie (1828), Grundriss der Waarenkunde (1833), and Über das Studium der Chemie (1861).[4]
