The basic plot has already been described accurately enough. Burke is going through the motions, attending to his usual schemes and scams, but gaining no real satisfaction from his successes. He's back in New York and his family is there for him, as always, but Burke seems struck by a sense of impending...not loss, exactly, but perhaps sadness, as he observes the Family Pride at Flower's academic achievements, even as he shares them, remembering the day her parents met, so long ago.
Terry, too, is now a grown man, struggling to accept the idea of commencing with his own life, as he fears his future will bring him further away from his own mother and father, even while understanding that this is what they *want* for him -- a life of his own, outside the shadows.
The Prof has Clarence; the Mole has Michelle; Max has Immaculata, and while Burke loves them all, and rejoices in their closeness with one another, Burke himself is all alone. Thoughts of Belle and Pansy haunt him, as does his knowledge that he's blown his last chance with prosecutor Wolfe, and he finds (to his own surprise) that the events which took place in Vachss' last Burke book, _Mask Market_, have affected him profoundly.
This is the state of mind Burke is in when contacted by Claw, the terminally-ill, high-ranking member of a White Supremacist group with ties to another member of Burke's family-of-choice, Silver, who Burke fans will remember from other novels.Read more ›
Over the years, as I have read each and every one of his books, I have consistently wished that the work of Andrew Vachss really was more fictional and less real. When he wrote about Internet porn, years before "regular people" were aware of this horrendous and lucrative criminal enterprise, he was called "over-the-top," and accused of a wild and sick imagination. If only those accusations were correct.
I wish I didn't know so much about the evil that (mostly) men do, and I wish that I could join in the ill-informed chorus that accuses Vachss's novels of being "over-the-top." It would be a better world if he were inventing this stuff, but he is not.
Each of Andrew Vachss' novels has required a combination of skill and courage. Because he relies so heavily on unpleasant, unthinkable truth, he is guaranteed to draw fire from bad people who perpetuate these evils, and otherwise good people who simply don't want to believe that they exist. But ignorance is not bliss; ignorance harms children. The telling of hard truths has always been the hallmark of our greatest thinkers, and they are almost always vilified. Later, when the entertainers who bring us our news confirm the unthinkable, too slowly they are believed.Read more ›
When he's not writing bestselling fiction about these two potentially stomach-turning subjects, he's practicing law to save kids from these predators and put those predators away for ever. In some ways, in real life Vachss is an even larger hero than his iconic hijacker/gunman/profiler, Burke.
Vachss has been writing these novels since FLOOD was published in 1985, and I've been reading them since I found the paperback in 1986. TERMINAL, this year's release, is the 17th in the series.
I love Burke. He's a hardened criminal with no remorse in him for people he takes advantage of. He usually operates cons, selling information that's no good or forgeries to people who intend to use it for evil pursuits. Burke justifies it, and I've always bought into his justification, though I wouldn't do it myself. He was raised and mistreated by the State, in institutions as well as foster homes. He never had a chance and he knows it. He still doesn't have one. So he lives his life in the shadows, and that provides a vicarious thrill that I haven't gotten over even twenty-plus years later.
He's also got a "family" of other people who were just as broken as he was, yet who refused to roll over and die. There's Max the Silent, a deaf and dumb Mongolian martial arts master who is immediate death to anyone that he's decided must die. The Prof is the black con man who taught Burke how to survive in prison, then on the streets. The Mole is a Jewish techno-wizard, a savant with anything electrical or explosive.Read more ›

CHICAGO – The stage play that Harry Lennix is in town to direct – "A Small Oak Tree Runs Red" – is in its last weekend, and is giving the actor/director the best notices of the theater part in his long and successful career. For more information about the play, and ticket availability, click here.

'Home' Continues Trend of So-So Animated FilmsSubmitted by PatrickMcD on March 27, 2015 - 9:39am
Rating: 2.5/5.0
CHICAGO – What was once an "event" – even the the most medium level animated film was a rare movie occasion – has now become commonplace in the film market. Once that tipping point was reached, suddenly the event became just another weekend, with just another film like "Home."
Story Won't Go All the Way in 'The Boy Next Door'Submitted by PatrickMcD on January 23, 2015 - 8:47am
Rating: 3.0/5.0
CHICAGO – There was a different kind of vibe coming from the thriller "The Boy Next Door," different than what is expected when hearing "Jennifer Lopez as teacher caught in a scandal with a student." But for every piece of original thinking, there was a fear of making it too different.
Jason Statham Steers Convoluted Tale as 'Parker'Submitted by PatrickMcD on January 25, 2013 - 6:15pm
Rating: 3.0/5.0
CHICAGO – The Jason Statham "character" has served the actor well through a substantial action movie career. But as situations to fit his stoic British kick-ass persona start to drift away, Statham is left with messy narratives like in his new film "Parker," co-starring Jennifer Lopez.
Boredom Awaits During 'What to Expect When You're Expecting'Submitted by BrianTT on May 18, 2012 - 11:12am
Rating: 1.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "Battleship" is getting a lot of flack this week for having little to do with its alleged source. I would argue that the awful "What to Expect When You're Expecting" is even more dishonest when it comes to its inspiration. Working from an instructional book that's designed to prepare adults for impending parenthood, the film that steals its title turns truth into cliché.
No Redeeming Quality to Jennifer Lopez's 'The Back-up Plan'Submitted by PatrickMcD on April 23, 2010 - 9:30am
Rating: 0.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "The Back-up Plan," starring Jennifer Lopez, is spectacularly bad. Filled with leaden, supposedly comedic lines, stupid generalities and no basis in reality, this film ranks first in class for worst of 2010 so far.

Gotta say it was pretty good. The animation was great I say its on par with Terkoiz's animation in terms of speed, the casino style music somehow fits the very well. Overall its a nice tribute animation to the Shock series.
No, it was NOT ra ripoff! Guys, didn't you SEE Terkoiz said, "There will be no Shock Four."? Did you? But you kept bugging him, so he finally put a stupid animation up on Newgrounds! This guy made a perfect ending to the series and still kept it as a tribute! I like this thing and I always will! (After making dramatic speech) *puts down microphone* Whooo! That was tiring! And boring! I'm bored... my coke is almost empty... What do I do... *opens refrigerator* Hmmm... what to get, what to get... *looks inside* Hey, there's only Coke in here! ...*takes coke* Sigh... *walks over to computer*......... *just sits there*........ *hits replay button for the 9,001st time*...

International stallion Kenmare, who twice led the French sires list, died on Feb. 7 of a heart attack at John Messara's Arrowfield Stud in New South Wales, Australia. The 26-year-old son of Kalamoun had been pensioned at Arrowfield following the 1996 breeding season.Kenmare was one of the first stallions to stand on both sides of the equator. He was France's leading sire by progeny earnings in 1988-89 and led the 2-year-olds list in 1989.Kenmare raced as a homebred for Baron Guy de Rothschild. He won the 1977 Prix Thomas Bryon (Fr-III) as a 2-year-old and the 1978 Prix Jacques Le Marios (Fr-I) and Prix de Fontainebleau (Fr-III) the year he was France's second-highweighted miler. He was retired with six wins from 11 starts and earnings of $146,100.Kenmare, who was produced from the Milesian mare Belle of Ireland, has sired 64 stakes winners, 36 of which were graded or group winners. His champions include French runners Kendor and Highest Honor. As a broodmare sire, Kenmare is represented by 33 added-money winners, including Eclipse Award winner and Breeders' Cup Sprint (gr. I) winner Lit de Justice.

Microsoft launches Windows 8 and details new features at Build 2011
Microsoft has launched the Developer Preview build of Windows 8 at its Build conference in Anaheim, California, and it's a radical redirection for the new version of the company's operating system. In addition, it revealed a host of new tools for developers to use to build new applications.
Windows Division president Steven Sinofsky also announced during his Keynote at the start of Build 2011, that all applications that work on Windows 7 will also work on Windows 8, as it has been built on the foundations of the current OS.
New features revealed in Windows 8 include a new Start Screen, which apes the user interface of Windows Phone 7 and the expected new UI of the Xbox 360. The lock screen will use things like touch sensitive photos rather than passwords and feature small icons detailing information like email, internet connectivity or battery life.
Dubbed a Metro style interface, it's been specifically designed for touch based devices, hinting at the imminent announcement of a Windows 8 tablet, but can also be used with a mouse or keyboard.
It essentially puts social media content and applications into tiles that can be browsed before entering the PC's file system itself, offering a totally different aspect to Windows-based computing. And those apps will be able to communicate together, allowing software to suck pictures and content from social networking sites, for example. The home screen will also adopt a sort of Android style overview, where pinching will zoom out and show you each page of tiles running on your system.
If you own other Windows-based devices (WP7 phone, for example), much of the content will sync across them all, and there will more integrated support for Sky Drive, Microsoft's cloud storage system.
The idea is to bring connectivity across all Windows devices and in particular the applications running on them. Rather than leaving applications themselves, content can be shared by swiping right and bringing up what Microsoft is calling 'charms'. Tap the share icon and then you can send whatever content you have selected to other apps running on the system without them needing to open an entirely new window.
On top of this new cross-app interactivity, every single application will exist in two forms; a full screen and a docked view. The docked view allows you to essentially multitask, doing things like viewing Tweets on the left of the screen while reading a website on the right. It makes us think slightly of the QNX corner based operating system running on the BlackBerry PlayBook.
Search is now heavily integrated into Windows 8. You can select to either search files, apps, settings or search via applications themselves. This means you can tap the search button and browse via Bing without leaving the actual search app itself or if you preferred, search Tweets through an inbuilt social networking app.
Also announced is a new Windows Store which will offer app developers a shop window to hawk their wares. Naturally, Apple's Mac Store leaps to mind in this instance.
And, as expected, it has been revealed that Windows 8 will be universal and will work across a large number of platforms: "Support for ARM-based chipsets, x86 (as well as x32 and x64) devices, touch and sensors means Windows 8 works beautifully across a spectrum of devices, from 10-inch tablets and laptops to all-in-ones with 27-inch high-definition screens," says the company.
Developers will be able to download the Windows Developer Preview via the Windows Dev Center later this week, although no consumer release date has been mentioned as yet.

State Senator Kyle McCarter Begins Virtual Office Hours Thursday
McCarter stated in a press release Wednesday that when possible, he hopes to be at the satellite locations in person. However, when the Senate is in session or his schedule does not allow, he will be sending a member of his office to set up and conduct the video conference using a computer.
The Senator will have virtual office hours at State Representative John Cavaletto's office at 1370 West Main Street, Suite A in Salem on the first and third Thursday of every month from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Office hours will be held on the first and third Tuesday of every month at Carlyle City Hall, located at 850 Franklin Street in Carlyle.
Office hours will be held at the Nashville City Hall, located at 190 North East Court Street in Nashville on the second and fourth Tuesday of every month, and at Senator McCarter's office at 310 West Gallatin in Vandalia on the second and fourth Thursday of every month. All hours will be held between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Offices will be closed on state holidays.
He says the new office hours are not replacing his regular office hours at the Vandalia office, but it's an attempt to have communications with constituents across a large district that time and distance might normally prohibit. The 54th District comprises all or part of Bond, Clinton, Effingham, Fayette, Madison, Marion, St. Clair and Washington counties.
The videoconferencing schedule will also be posted on Senator McCarter's legislative website at www.senatormccarter.com under the Contact Us tab. You can also call the Vandalia District Office at 618-283-3000.

Quick vegetable and chickpea curry
This vegetable curry recipe is remarkably simple to make, providing a curry dinner with little wait and fuss. And even though it's so quick to make, it has a wonderful range of flavours.
1 onion, peeled and cut into quarters
15g of root ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
3 garlic cloves, sliced
125g medium curry paste
250ml of water
1 red chilli, fresh and roughly chopped
2 tin of chopped tomatoes, large-sized
2 tins of chickpeas, well rinsed
400g of spinach leaves
1 bunch of fresh coriander, roughly chopped
Vegetable oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Place the onion, ginger and garlic into a blender and blend into a puree.
Heat up a large saucepan, add a little oil and add the pureed onion mix.
Cook for 2-3 minutes before adding the curry paste and chilli. Cook for a further 2 minutes.
Pour in the water, tomatoes and chickpeas and cook until quite dry — this should take no longer than about 5-6 minutes.
Add the spinach and coriander, and season with sea salt and pepper. Cook until the spinach has wilted, then serve
Recipe courtesy of www.greatbritishchefs.com
Beetroot, orange, feta, tarragon, chilli
Sweet, tart and salty, with a hit of anise-zing from the tarragon.
Green beans, mint, lemon, chamomile, dill seed
A very green salad of beans punctuated with a subtle hit of chilli and chamomile.
Cauliflower, harissa, buckwheat, mint, pistachio
A Moorish-inspired taste combo that involves almost no skill to pull together.
I can't cope with screaming tots and it's not fair
The summer term is now over, and so, too, is the event that strikes desperation and horror into my heart: the school summer fair.

Generalized Trust Through Civic Engagement? Evidence from Five National Panel Studies

According to a popular version of social capital theory, civic engagement should produce generalized trust among citizens. We put this theory to the test by examining the causal connection between civic engagement and generalized trust using multiple methods and multiple (prospective) panel datasets. We found participants to be more trusting. This was mostly likely caused by selection effects: the causal effects of civic engagement on trust were very small or nonsignificant. In the cases where small causal effects were found, they turned out not to last. We found no differences across types of organizations and only minor variations across countries.

Katrina Darling, who happens to be the Duchess of Cambridge's stripper cousin, can be seen posing in a barely there underwear with peroxide blonde hair in the new issue of men's magazine Loaded.
The 22-year-old, who was revealed ahead of the Royal Wedding to be Kate's second cousin, once removed, has pocketed herself six-figure sums posing for a variety of raunchy magazines - including Playboy - and performing her risque burlesque act across the globe, the Daily Mail reported.
The stripper even lets rip at Kate's new family in a sensational interview.
Speaking about her cousin's father-in-law, the outspoken bombshell said: "I think Prince Charles has done a lot of good for people. It's his prerogative who he dates. Some men are like that. you can't polish a turd."
She didn't stop at Prince Charles. She went on to say that she isn't attracted to loveable ginger Prince Harry and wouldn't want to see his "tackle."
But if there is one person the tattooed former Barclays bank employee has some sympathy for her cousin Kate, particularly following the publication of her private holiday photographs.
She told the magazine that Kate was on private land and comfortable being in her own skin, and shouldn't be scrutinised on that.

I am consufed on how to normalize the inputs / outputs for a regression neural network using (Gaussian normalization ? ) mean & standart deviation normalization technique :
Most importantly, I Normalize from which data ?
Let me explain :
let's say i have these training data on a 2 input neurons, 2 hidden neurons , 1 output neuron:
[input1 : 10][input2: 5]
[input1: 30][input2: 255]
do i normalize by column(neuron), or from all the inputs data ? Is the mean for input neuron 1 =
(10+30+5+255)/4 ?
Try both with weird result using the typical XOR example (only 1s and 0s in the traning data), where i was actually loosing great accuracy when normalizing.

The book is divided into five main sections:
-- "See it" helps readers figure out where their passions ("things") are
-- "Believe it" helps them flesh out why the problem is important
-- "Build it" helps them figure out what to do about their issue. It has 32 off-the-shelf ideas for animal welfare, disaster relief, anti-discrimination, education, environmental, health, human rights, poverty, anti-violence, peace, and anti-homelessness, plus a section where readers can flesh out their own ideas for projects.
-- "Do it" helps readers figure out the details, from the mission statement to project name to petitions.
-- Finally "Reflect it" helps readers figure out what worked, what didn't, how to keep the momentum going (thank you notes!) or how to pass on the torch to someone else.
The ideas presented range from the simple - volunteering, writing letters - to the complex--organizing toy drives and art exhibits. Regardless of where readers' passion takes them, this book is sure to simultaneously energize them and make sure they are practical in achieving their goals.
I would recommend this book highly to tweens and teens looking to make a difference. It would also make a great resource for afterschool programs, church groups, etc. Heck, even college students and members of the community in general will find it a quick, fun, and thorough way to get their thoughts organized. My one caveat is that while the book is made to be written on, it might be better to have a separate project notebook, so the book can be used again and again.
This book is cool b/c it breaks all that stuff down step by step, so that no matter your age you can make a difference in a real way in your OWN way. Definitely giving to my little sister as one of her Christmas presents so that she can use it to be a leader in a way I wasn't able to!

sense the begging of nyan cat...it all came to this
when will people stop making nyan flash cartoons. its done....over...move on
I've will never make a nyan cat parody again.
I made this when Nyan Cat parodys where cool.
As the Heavy says
"tanks a lot"
ITs not really all that original or use, and it would get a better rating if you had cared to even insure the Nya didnt end before the actual video did. (the sound cuts out at roughly 3:45). You would have gotten even more points if you had changed the backgrounds, dont an original nya mix, or even just used something other then the basic nya song, even if it wasnt original.
I orginal made this 2years ago.
I uploaded it to youtube a year after I made it.
I making a new remixed version
But I need some to make the music
Really it's just like any other nyancat parody

Les petits esprits ont besoin de despotisme pour le jeu de leurs nerfs, comme les grandes âmes ont soif d'égalité pour l'action du cœur. Or les êtres étroits s'étendent aussi bien par la persécution que par la bienfaisence; ils peuvent s'attester leur puissance par un empire ou cruel ou charitable sur autrui, mais ils vont du côté où les pousse leur tempérament. Ajoutez le véhicule de l'intérêt, et vous aurez l'énigme de la plupart des choses sociales.
Small minds can develop as well through despotism as through benevolence; they can assure themselves of their power by tyrannizing cruelly or beneficently others; they go the way their nature guides them. Add to this the dictates of self-interest, and you will have the key to most social riddles.

In five easy lessons
From the April 2015 issue
In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

Thank you, Cheasapeake Energy, for you generous gift to Carroll County. You have been a wonderful breath of fresh air since your arrival. Our county had grown stagnant and you have revived our hope. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Too bad they aren't donating money to local residents to help pay for rising cost of rental homes! Locals don't make $50 an hour working non-fracking related jobs (and the fracking jobs available are very hard to get and don't pay near what the out of town workers make!)$1200 a month for a 3bdrm home is impossible! We are drowning here!

Dark Scavenger PC
- Publisher: Psydra Games
- Release Date: May 16, 2014
- Summary: Dark Scavenger is a bizarre point-and-click RPG adventure with a focus on exploration, gaining loot, and meaningful choices. Filling the role of a powerful space traveler, you find yourself stranded on a mysterious alien planet. Will you save the world or just yourself?
- Developer: Psydra Games
- Genre(s): Role-Playing
- Cheats: On GameFAQs
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 3
Mixed: 2 out of 3
Negative: 0 out of 3
May 2, 2012Dark Scavenger takes an iteration of the RPG genre that is generally thought of as obsolete and breathes fresh life into it. While there's room for improvement, it does what it does very well, and is packed to the brim with colourful characters and desperate situations.
May 16, 2014You probably already know whether or not this is a game for you, so if you don't have a problem with lots of reading and very minimal visual presentation, you can't go wrong with Dark Scavenger.
