When it comes to popular music, there's crazy and then there's CRAZY. According to a lot of the songs in our play-list today, crazy is how you feel when you're infatuated with someone and hey, while that can be confusing, its also a lot of fun. Even Sigmund Freud acknowledged: "one is very crazy when in love".
The good thing about being a bit loopy is that it can produce some great songwriting. And while we included a lot of "crazy in love" type tunes in the show this week, we also entered into some heavy territory with material written by a few of our tortured souls. The truth is that any song about mental illness can make you uncomfortable to some extent, either because its too frivolous or because its too close to the bone. But you know that here at the Theme Park we like to live dangerously.
We opened the show with Gary Jules' cover of the Tears for Fears song MAD WORLD. I first heard this version on the brilliantly eccentric movie Donnie Darko. Requested by Clare, it proved to be a great start to a show full of songs about trying to stay sane in this crazy, crazy world.
We moved on with a couple of fairly harmless tunes about losing your marbles – and from completley different ends of the musical spectrum: I THINK I'M PARANOID from Garbage and TWISTED from jazz legend Annie Ross, with help from Dave Lambert and Jon Hendricks.
A country tune that regards the issue of mental health very seriously indeed is called PSYCHO. The version we played was by Jack Kittel and, to be honest, it really creeped me out. So I was happy to follow with the more innocent NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, essentially an upbeat love song from the great Eddie Cochran.
Let's get the Australian attitude to insanity into perspective: I had an email during the week from Sue, asking me for the origin of the expression 'mad as a meat axe', meaning 'nuts, crazy or insane'. Here's what I discovered: this is a uniquely Australian expression that you won't find anywhere else in the world. It joins a whole group of expressions that start with the words 'as mad as' such as 'mad as a beetle' (the insect that is), 'mad as a dingbat', 'mad as a gum tree full of galahs' and 'mad as a cut snake'. These expressions are recorded as far back as 1910 and are nothing more than verbal creativity gone wild.
And talking of wild, we had to include James Brown's song about his fear that, if his girlfriend leaves him, he'll GO CRAZY. And then it was one of the craziest songs (and videos) ever: The Avalanches with FRONTIER PSYCHIATRIST:
Had to include Gnarls Barkley's hit CRAZY because, not only is it pop perfection, it was requested by both Lynden and Robyn. Al Royal from BayFM's Friday 10pm slot, asked for INSANE IN THE BRAIN from Cypress Hill. And how could I refuse?
There's always room for a great jazz standard and this week we included Peggy Lee with YOU'RE DRIVING ME CRAZY. Judi tells me she's a huge Patsy Cline fan and so, as predictable as it might be, there was no way we were leaving out the queen of country's signature tune, CRAZY.
Changing the tone somewhat, it was time for a track from someone who knows just a little bit about crazy behaviour: Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath with PARANOID. And you've got to love Goldie Lookin' Chain's YOUR MISSUS IS A NUTTER, supposedly about Posh & Becks.
According to The Pixies songwriter, Black Francis, WAVE OF MUTILATION is about "Japanese businessmen doing murder-suicides with their families because they'd failed in business, and they're driving off a pier into the ocean." Wild concepts like this make The Pixies a hard act to follow, but Beth Hart gives it a good shot with a cover of Belinda Carlisle's LEAVE THE LIGHT ON:
The novelty song, HOORAY, HOORAY, I'M GOING AWAY was recorded in 1947, by Beatrice Kay, and it's an obvious forerunner to Napolean 14th's 60's hit, THEY'RE COMING TO TAKE ME AWAY, HA HA. Born in 1907, Beatrice was a singer, vaudevillian, stage and film actress and she even hosted her own radio show. She died in 1979.
Still alive and kicking is the wonderful Mose Allison who gave us one of the 'crazy in love' songs that make up a lot of this week's show: LOST MIND. But if you're looking for authenticity in your songs about madness, then country singer Porter Wagoner is your man. He wrote THE RUBBER ROOM after spending some time in a mental hospital for a little R&R.
Which brings us to 19th NERVOUS BREAKDOWN from the Rolling Stones. Released in 1966 on the Aftermath album, it's well known for Bill Wyman's dive-bombing bass line at the end of the song:
But if you want to talk scary mad, then it has to be the brilliant PSYCHO KILLER from the one and only Talking Heads.
Whew, I was feeling the need for a little more lightness in the list. Relief came with one of the great Blues artists, Little Walter, with CRAZY MIXED UP WORLD. And despite the title of the song, there is nothing but pure joy in the song that gave a certain Ska group their name: from Prince Buster it is, of course, MADNESS. Here he is performing alongside Suggs and Georgie Fame. How good is that?
Green Day's contribution to our line-up of loony tunes was BASKET CASE and we followed with one of the first grunge/garage bands, The Sonics, with PSYCHO. Love that band! Kurt Cobain cited them as a great influence, so it was fitting that we included a track from the group whose lead singer and songwriter suffered from manic depression and drug dependency that, unfortunately, led to his suicide. I chose the Nirvana song they wrote about another tragic public figure: FRANCES FARMER WILL HAVE HER REVENGE ON SEATTLE.
But if you want to talk influential then The Ramones are on everyone's list. So much to choose from with these guys and requests by multiple listeners, but for me it had to be I WANNA BE SEDATED.
Bruce Hornsby is a versatile and prolific artist. Known for the spontaneity and creativity of his live performances, Hornsby draws frequently from classical, jazz, bluegrass, folk, Motown, rock, blues and jam band musical traditions with his songwriting. But we didn't play one of his originals today but instead it was a great version he does of Elton John's MADMAN ACROSS THE WATER.
Theme Park is followed by a great show called Postmodern Backlash, (still not quite sure what that means!), and its hosted by Hudson. So because I know that he loves his calypso music I also included The Mighty Sparrow with MAD BOMBER.
We finished the show with Pink Floyd's SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND. The song is their tribute to former band member Syd Barrett who left the band in 1968 amidst speculation of mental illness aggravated by heavy drug use. As gloomy as that sounds it's a beautiful piece of music and a fitting end to the program.
Next week I'll be celebrating Australia's first female Prime Minister (go Julia!) with a show on WOMEN. I'd love to receive your requests and suggestions.
And here's my final word on madness: Remember what Hunter S Thompson had to say: "I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me."

DEAD MUSICIANS' CLUB
I'm writing this with a slight hangover. Last night was BayFM's trivia fundraiser on the theme of The Dead Musicians Club. Great night had by all. I loved the theme so much that I organised this week's show around the same topic. And, let's face it, a little bit of outrageous promotion for the event didn't hurt either. And if you are wondering, I teamed up with the lovely Andy and we dressed as Sid Vicious & Nancy Spungeon.
Trying to fit all my favourite musicians into the two hour slot was, of course, impossible. But I had a good go at it. First up it was Curtis Mayfield & the Impressions with PEOPLE GET READY. Mayfield died in 1999 after 10 years of ill health due to being paralysed after an onstage accident. His music continues to be part of hip-hop's DNA. Rappers like Jay-Z and Snoop Dog have sampled his lyrics and its reported that his estate receives five sample requests a month, with each one fetching up to $350,000. So Curtis, or at least his estate, isn't doing too badly.
In order to fit as many of the artists that I could into the line-up it was necessary to occasionally play a duet. And, I ask you, is there any better than Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong? Ella died in 1996 and is widely considered one of the supreme interpreters of the Great American Songbook. Louis Armstrong passed away in 1971. His influence extends way beyond jazz music. By the end of his career in the 1960's, he was widely regarded as a profound influence on popular music in general.The duet I chose was DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME.
Both Buddy Holly and Patsy Cline died in plane crashes and both were very young at the time of their passing. They continue to influence country, rock and pop music to this day. We played LEAVIN' ON YOUR MIND from Patsy Cline and CRYIN' WAITIN' HOPIN' from Buddy Holly. Oldies, but goodies.
Wilson Pickett was known for his influence on R&B, rock n roll and soul. Is there a better dance floor filler than his rendition of DEVIL WITH THE BLUE DRESS ON? No way.
Two artists who found the fame game just a bit too difficult are Nirvana's Kurt Cobain and singer/songwriter Nick Drake. Both committed suicide while still very young. At the time of Cobain's death in 1994 he was worth less than $1 million but future royalties have been valued at over $100 million. Drake failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime, however his work has gradually achieved wider notice and recognition. He now ranks among the most influential English singer-songwriters of the last 50 years. He died in 1974. We played Drake's FRUIT TREE, a request from Anthony, and Nirvana's COME AS YOU ARE. Here's a clip of Nirvana performing unplugged in New York in the early 90's:
Naturally I couldn't do a show about dead musicians without including Michael Jackson. We chose ROCK WITH YOU from the Off the Wall album. After his death in 2009 Jackson became the best-selling artist of the year, selling over 31 million albums worldwide. He named James Brown "his greatest inspiration". So it was fitting that we played I FEEL GOOD from Brown as well. He died on Xmas Day 2006 due to complications from pneumonia.
It's a myth, you know, that Mama Cass Elliott died chocking on a peanut butter sandwich. The real story is that she died of a heart attack after performing back-to-back concerts in London in 1974. She died in the same flat in Mayfair, (on loan from Harry Nilsson), that the Who's drummer Keith Moon would die in, a little over four years later. I played Elliot's great version of the Buddy Holly classic, WORDS OF LOVE and followed with a song for Rolling Stones founder, and multi-instrumentalist, Brian Jones. It's one that showcased Jones' skill on the side guitar: LITTLE RED ROOSTER.
Lynard Skynard came to worldwide recognition in 1973 before three members and one road crew member died in a plane crash in 1977. Keyboardist Billy Powell died in 2009, aged 56, from a heart attack. Of its original members, only Gary Rossington remains as part of the present line-up. We followed with another good ol' Southern boy you may have heard of: cultural icon Elvis Presley with BURNING LOVE.
Bob Marley, who passed away in 1981, had to wait for death to make him a U.S. superstar. The week he was diagnosed with cancer he played Madison Square Garden — opening for the Commodores. Fellow Wailer, Peter Tosh, was on the brink of a successful solo career when he was murdered in 1987. I played the Wailers version of GET UP, STAND UP, with both Peter Tosh and Bob Marley on the track.
We said goodbye to both Malcolm McLaren and Sid Vicious with the Sex Pistols' anthem GOD SAVE THE QUEEN. Here's what all the fuss was about, way back then:
While punk rock stirred things up, for a while, R&B never went away. Marvin Gaye's career spanned the entire history of Rhythm & Blues from 50's doo wop to 80's contemporary soul. He was murdered by his own father after an argument in 1984. Otis Redding died in plane crash a month before his biggest hit was released. He was only 26. We listened to Marvin Gaye's sublime WHAT'S GOIN' ON followed by the song that would make Otis Redding's estate worth more money than he ever saw when he was alive – SITTIN ON THE DOCK OF THE BAY.
If we're talking punk, however, I have to say that my favourite band is The Clash. Lead singer and lyricist for the group, Joe Strummer, died suddenly in 2002 from an undiagnosed congenital heart defect. Highly intelligent and politically pro-active, he was the first artist to make the recording, pressing and distribution of his records carbon neutral. Onya Joe. Check out this clip of LONDON CALLING:
Two great artists who died of cancer are 60's icon, Dusty Springfield, and the incredible Ray Charles. For Dusty we played the power ballad, YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME, and for Ray Charles, the very appropriate, HARD TIMES.
I've played Johnny Cash's amazing cover of the Nine Inch Nails track, HURT, before but it couldn't be left out of a show like this. He recorded it in 2002 and it was one of Cash's final releases before his death in 2003. The video for the song is regarded as his epitaph.
One of my sentimental favourites is Freddy Mercury who died of pneumonia resulting from AIDS in 1991. As lead singer of rock group Queen he also composed many of their hits. He had a successful solo career too and I chose one of those recordings for this week's show: THERE MUST BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS.
Another of my favourites is Tim Buckley and one of my favourite albums is his Greetings from LA. Buckley died at 28 from a drug overdose with nothing more than a guitar, amplifier and a lot of debt to his name. His legacy of 11 albums has rectified that somewhat, I hope. Hard to pick one track but we went with MOVE WITH ME.
Another victim of drug addiction was the pioneering Janis Joplin. She died at 27 from a heroin overdose and one of the last songs she recorded was a birthday greeting for John Lennon. The founder of the Beatles was assassinated in 1980, aged 40. So we started the set with Joplin's CRY BABY and followed with Lennon's HOW? from the Imagine album.
And finally, my favourite artist, dead or alive – Roy Orbison with his signature tune, PRETTY WOMAN. This clip is from the Black & White Night DVD, a great video featuring Orbison and friends including Jackson Browne, T Bone Burnett, Elvis Costello, k.d. lang, Bonnie Rait, J.D. Souther, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits and Jennifer Warnes. Heaven. And for all things 'Roy' go to the website at: http://www.royorbison.com/
We wrapped the show up with a great artist who passed away only a couple of days ago, at the ripe old age of 92. Lena Horne helped break down barriers for generations of performers. We played her signature tune, STORMY WEATHER from the 1943 film of the same name. It's a sizzling performance. I want that movie for my collection!
And we still had time to fit in the very charismatic Jim Morrison and The Doors with RIDERS ON A STORM. Whew. Now I know that there are some glaring omissions. But it's only a two hour show folks!
Next week I've been inspired by some postings on Facebook to create a show on SONGS WITH MEANINGLESS WORDS. Like Na-Na-Hey-Hey and Doo-Ron-Ron. That kind of thing. Love to hear your suggestions.

Q: Laptop not starting up after cleaning cpu fan I have Acer Aspire 5745G Laptop its fan started making noise. So i followed up this tutorial. And cleaned Fan and put everything back up.
But now when connecting battery automatically starts up laptop and it auto shutdown in 1-3 seconds. Pressing power button doesn't do anything.
Here how i put it back on.
On first attempt i put everything back except DVD ROM
On Second attempt i didn't connect my HDD
On third attempt i just connected basic things.(see pictures)
Cpu fan
Dc charger port
Video cable(Laptop screen)
Webcam
Power button
TouchPad
Dvd Rom eject button

Motherboard with fan connection only

Screen & webcam wire connected

Power, DVD Eject button , touchpad wire connected

And finally connected DC Power jack wire and wifi anntena

I didn't remove RAM & bios battery.
In third attempt laptop didn't started automatically when connecting battery. But power button still not works.

A: Found the issue.
Power button wire connection pin was damaged and it was causing short circuit making laptop automatically start and shutdown.

Cable damaged pins

A: You best option is to start again.  Your laptop is hopefully detecting something is wrong and shutting down as a safety measure.  It could be as simple as your CPU fan is not connected.  I doubt after 3 seconds you're reaching a shutdown temperature, which could be the other option.
Most likely if you've forget to reconnect something, or something is connected the wrong way around, but check your CPU cooler and fan carefully.
Good luck.

There is nothing "progressive" about the Ocasio-Cortez-promoted "New Green Deal," which is little more than an industry-driven, neoliberal solution that will not solve issues like climate change and poverty but instead empower their underlying cause: U.S. oligarchy.
According to a draft of the plan that is currently available on Ocasio-Cortez's website, the proposed House committee "shall be composed of 15 members appointed by the Speaker, of whom six may be appointed on the recommendation of the Minority Leader." By all indications, the next speaker of the House is set to be Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), meaning that every member of the committee will be appointed by her, with six of those members potentially being appointed on the "recommendation" of the House's top Republican. Notably, Ocasio-Cortez herself has recently backed Pelosi as House speaker.
Does anyone know anything about this new and seemingly quite well-known/popular sunrise movement? It seems as though they came out of nowhere and have garnered a fair amount of media attention.
Typically, if something like the Green New Deal, or a group like the Sunrise Movement truly did threaten the status quo, they would receive very very little media attention. This whole thing smells a little fishy…..
December 19, 2018 | RESIST!
While Ellen Brown describes now MMT can provide funding, the article does not address the points in THIS article that is, that it's highly unlikely that the creatures that corporate Nancy Pelosi and the republicans appoint to the committee in the House will produce anything CLOSE to the REAL Green New Deal.

SAN ANTONIO - Spurs rookie guard Lonnie Walker IV is hitting another benchmark in his recovery from a preseason knee injury.
The Spurs on Sunday announced they have assigned Walker to the Austin Spurs.
Walker, who is rehabbing from a right medial meniscus tear, will practice with the G League team on Sunday through Wednesday.
Last week before a game in New Orleans, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich indicated the club's medical staff could be targeting a December return for Walker.
"As of a couple of days ago, they said it would be a couple of more weeks," Popovich said Nov. 19.
The Spurs selected Walker 18th overall in the 2018 NBA Draft in June.

Q: Dynamically Change Path of Data Connection in Excel I developed a workbook that uses Power Query to import data from two CSV files that are saved in a Box Sync folder on my desktop. Box is a cloud storage service that routinely syncs data stored in the cloud on the user's desktop.
When another user attempts to open the workbook I created and refresh the data they are unable to because the data connections to the two csv files are absolute references to the Box Sync folder on my desktop. I believe this problem can be solved if I can find a way to dynamically update a portion of the data connection's file path in Excel.
For example:
Box Sync folders have the same file structure the only difference being the desktop reference portion of the path:
My Box Sync Folder Path:
C:\Users\user.a\Box Sync\ParentFolder\SubFolder\2018\csvfile.csv
Other User's Box Sync Path:
C:\Users\user.b\Box Sync\ParentFolder\SubFolder\2018\csvfile.csv
What I need to be able to do is dynamically update the
'C:\Users\user.b' portion of the path in the data connection string.
Your help is appreciated, thanks!

Inuyashiki Trailer Reveals First Cast Members
Posted by Samantha Ferreira | Aug 25, 2017 | News Reporting |
Tags: amazon, casting, character visuals, inuyashiki, mappa, noitamina, promo video
This time, the world's greatest hero is an elderly salaryman. I can dig it.
Yesterday, the official Inuyashiki anime website updated with a new promotional video. The 45-second trailer introduces the show's first cast members, as opening theme song My Hero by Man With A Mission plays in the background.
Noitamina started streaming a short versoin of the trailer earlier today, which you can check out below:
The confirmed voice cast includes:
Ichirō Inuyashiki: Fumiyo Kohinata
Hiro Shishigami: Nijirō Murakami
Visuals for both characters were also released, which you can check out below:
Ichiro Inuyashiki
Hiro Shishigami
Inayushiki will air on October 12 in Fuji TV's NoitaminA block. As part of their ongoing agreement with Amazon, the series will stream exclusively on Amazon Prime in all regions across the globe.
The series is based on Hiroya Oku's manga of the same name. Keiichi Satou (Tiger & Bunny, Rage of Bahamut: Genesis) will serve as chief director at MAPPA, with Shuhei Yabuta taking the director's chair. Naoyuki Onda (Ergo Proxy, Gantz) is providing character designs for the show, while Hiroshi Seko (Seraph of the End, Ajin) takes charge of series composition.
Hiroya Oku's Inayushiki manga launched in the pages of Kodansha's Evening magazine in 2014. The series will span ten collected volumes when the final book ships in September.
Kodansha Comics currently holds the domestic rights to the manga in North America. They describe it as:
Ichiro Inuyashiki is down on his luck. While only 58 years old, his geriatric looks often have him written off as a pathetic old man by the world around him and he's constantly ignored and disrespected by his family despite all that he's done to support them. On top of everything else, his doctor has revealed that he has cancer and it appears that he has little time left in this world. But just when it seems things couldn't get any worse, a blinding light in the night sky strikes the earth where Ichiro stands. He later wakes up to find himself unscathed, but he soon starts to notice that there's something…different about himself.

Q: Save updated version of printWriter several times troughou a process I am running very time-consuming analyses and only their (very short) results are outputed to text file using printWriter.
Since my computer broke down twice recently and the results were not saved since the process wasn't finished (it only saves the file whenever printerWriter.close() is reached at the end), I was wondering whether there was a way to save the file various times throughout the process and update the output file each time. In that case, if the computer crashes at least parts of the results would still be available and wouldn't have to be repeated.
Some details:
A process is repeated for n=10 iterations using different (fixed) random seeds. After each iteration, I would like to save the results obtained in the iterations run so far. Thus, the chosen output file would have to be updated and saved after each iteration.

A: I suspect all you're looking for is calling flush on the PrintWriter.
Sounds like you should potentially look for a new computer, mind you...

A: You can create PrintWriter using:
    PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter("file name"), true);

to get output buffer flushed automatically when println() or format() or printf() called on writer. Or you can manually use writer.flush() to flush output buffer when you desire.

Grin and bear it, Red Wing volunteer singled out for dental clinic work
Written By: Michael Brun | Dec 8th 2019 - 7am.
Red Wing CARE Clinic named its annual volunteer award the Sheila Arimond CARE-ing Bear Award in reference to the first recipient's background caring for black bears in northern Minnesota. Local artist Kevin Riester crafted a suitable bear statue to accompany the title. Submitted photo
RED WING, Minn. -- Before Sheila Arimond joined the community CARE Clinic as volunteer dental coordinator, her only experience in the field was pulling teeth out of black bears in northern Minnesota.
When Arimond was named the clinic's inaugural volunteer of the year last month, clinic President Julie Malyon said the organization came up with a perfectly grin-inducing name for the honor: the Sheila Arimond CARE-ing Bear Award.
The award, presented Nov. 14 on the national Give to the Max Day fundraising drive for nonprofits and schools, came complete with a metal bear statue by local artist Kevin Riester.
Sheila Arimond was recently named Red Wing CARE Clinic's inaugural volunteer of the year in recognition of her 3,600-plus volunteer hours as dental coordinator. Submitted photo
"It was a total surprise," Arimond said of the award, adding it was equal parts heartwarming and embarrassing.
"It was embarrassing just because the CARE Clinic is such an incredible team effort," she said. "And I'm just proud to be a part of it."
Arimond has volunteered around 3,600 hours at the clinic since coming aboard three and a half years ago, according to Malyon. She is credited with sustaining the clinic's dental offerings and leading a recent program expansion.
"The impact of Sheila's program coordination has benefited thousands of community members," Malyon said in an email.
The clinic's Operations Committee will select a new CARE-ing Bear recipient each year.
By way of Hibbing
Arimond's background is in wildlife biology. Her master's degree studies in the 1970s included tracking black bears to winter dens using radio collars, then being lowered down to care for the tranquilized animals.
Her nonprofit experience came years later in Hibbing, Minn., where she and her husband, pediatrician Dr. Joel Cassingham, lived for 25 years. The community started a free clinic about a decade ago, and Arimond said she got involved early on, gaining experience working with volunteers and coordinating programming.
After her husband's job change brought the couple to Red Wing, Arimond said volunteering with CARE Clinic was a way to get involved with the local community.
"Since coming here we have been so, so impressed with the community spirit in Red Wing," she said. "It's just phenomenal."
CARE Clinic — short for "Community by improving health care access, connecting people to resources, and promoting health education" — provides medical, dental and mental health services for low-income residents of Goodhue County and Lake City. It is operated out of the Mayo Clinic Health System Seminary Professional Building, 906 College Ave.
Volunteers are always needed at the clinic, especially those who are bilingual, as well donations, Arimond said. More information can be found online at http://careclinicrw.com.
"We'll match your gift and your skills, and teach you some new ones," she said.

Best Thriller Books and Thriller Book Reviews
FLASHBACK: The Best Thriller Books of 2019
By Bella Wright on September 25, 2021 in Best Thriller Book Lists, Crime Thriller Books, Medical Thriller Books, Mystery Books, New Book Releases, Sci-Fi Thriller Books
2019 was an amazing year for fans of mystery and thriller books. An abundance of endlessly entertaining choices came from all categories, including crime thrillers, medical thrillers, legal thrillers, psychological thrillers, fantasy novels and more.
Narrowing the list down from the hundreds of books our team has read this year to just a handful was daunting.
In terms of authors, our 2019 list of the best mystery and thriller books is incredibly diverse:
– Three first-time novelists
– Six books from major publishing houses
– Nine books from small publishing houses or that were independently published.
Our list contains many first-time honorees, including Leigh Bardugo, Lisa Jewell, Gordon J. Campbell, Preston & Child, Alex Lettau, Michael Allan Scott, Craig Hooper, Liam Fialkov and Lawrence Matrick M.D.
Returning to our list is Andrew Diamond, who was on our 2018 list with his gem Gate 76, living legend Harlan Coben and cross-genre master Stephen King.
Each of these mid-year picks is bound to keep you up late at night.
Some may keep you from sleeping.
Others will reframe the way you think about suspense and ripped-from-the-headlines topics.
The Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
Yale's freshman class may look homogenous, but there's at least one outlier within: Galaxy "Alex" Stern. Alex has survived attempted murder, loser boyfriends and a hippie upbringing.
Lightning strikes when she receives a full ride to Yale. But nothing in life is free, and Alex's sponsors ask her to monitor Yale's secret societies.
Anyone who follows politics has heard about Yale's Skull and Bones society, whose members included President George Bush and Secretary of State John Kerry. The rumors pale in comparison to what novelist Leigh Bardugo has dreamed up in The Ninth House. The book feels literally haunted, its plot brimming with black magic and suspense as thick as Turkish coffee.
In Alex, Bardugo has created a character that is at once transparent and vulnerable, while still managing to surprise with her capabilities. Fans of Night Circus will love The Ninth House.
The Courier by Gordon J. Campbell
In The Courier's intense opening pages, four thugs are gunned down by an assassin in Bangkok, a businessman's contract is brutally terminated in Tokyo, and a DEA agent saves an overdose victim in Charleston, West Virginia.
What's the connection between these seemingly disparate tragedies? Debut novelist Gordon J. Campbell deftly answers that question over the next 300 pages, writing in bite-sized chapters that rarely fail to pack an emotional or physical punch.
The heart and soul of Campbell's novel is 40-year-old Canadian Gregg Westwood, a devoted family man and medical sales rep based in Japan. Just as Gregg is double-crossed by his employer in Tokyo, he's recruited by intelligence agents to deliver a package to Bangkok. As they see it, Gregg's inexperience in espionage is his biggest asset.
But once there, the handoff doesn't go as planned, and their new courier is in way over his head. Meanwhile, back in Japan, the life Gregg has so carefully constructed is suddenly at risk.
In what is shaping up to be an incredible year for first-time novelists, The Courier's edge-of-your-seat plot is eclipsed only by Campbell's lush landscapes. The claustrophobic density of Shinjuku and the stylish grit of Bangkok leap off the page, while the homeyness of the U.S. Air Base invokes a sense of nostalgia that transcends our era. The Courier is a rather lean book, but Campbell has seemingly chosen just the right details to create an environment for Gregg's inevitable transformation.
The Bottom Line: One of the year's best thrillers. Fans of Michael Connelly's Bosch series will love Agent Garrison Chase.
When FBI Agent Garrison Chase's old mentor Slim shows up unannounced and badly beaten, he knows trouble can't be far behind. Years earlier, Chase and Slim had been recruited to kill a Thai General and human trafficker called The Rat. They failed, and now Slim is set to testify against him – if he can first survive an attempted poisoning.
Chase knows that simply by association, his own life may already be in danger. Meanwhile, he learns that Slim has been hired by congresswoman and presidential candidate Henrietta Valenzuela to investigate her opponent Barrington Bradford Bollinger III. She purportedly suspects that the candidate is faking his blindness, and Slim asks for Chase's help. But before he can make much progress, Chase is framed for the murder of someone he's close to.
The second installment in author Craig N. Hooper's Garrison Chase series begins with a bang, featuring one of the greatest opening lines we've seen all year: "The man who taught me two different ways to kill a person with my index finger showed up on my doorstep at twenty past six." As with Hooper's stellar debut, The Greatest Good, The Thin Line manages to operate within the dirty world of politics without being remotely political while delivering a thoroughly satisfying FBI procedural. While Chase has his theories as to the complex network of human trafficking, murder and politics at the book's core, Hooper manages to deliver surprises until the very end.
Much like Harry Bosch in Michael Connelly's outrageously successful series, Chase is obsessed with two things: delivering justice in a hopelessly unjust world, and protecting the fragmented remains of his family. Written in the first person, Chase exudes humanity and a depth of character that is rare for the genre. In particular, his relationship with Karla is expertly written, beautifully exploring the reality that those close to him always seem to pay a high price. Highly recommended.
The Ninth Session by Deborah Serani
Dr. Alicia Reese's first encounter with new patient Lucas Ferro begins as she finds him suffering from a crippling panic attack in her darkened office bathroom. Ferro has been in therapy before, and he's worried that nobody can help him. By their third meeting, he discloses vague details of what may be a murder scene, and Dr. Reese's post-session notes set the stage for what will be a deeply unsettling relationship: "Am I in danger knowing this?"
Author Dr. Deborah Serani, a widely published psychologist whose work can be found across mainstream media, has crafted a thriller that is as hair-raising as it is believable. Serani tells the story from Dr. Reese's point of view, who feels duty-bound to balance her legal and ethical obligations with fears for her personal safety. Should she risk Googling the details of the alleged incident to try to learn more, knowing that her search could be compromised or tracked? Should she confide in her supervisor?
Serani employs a tightly wound plot, wasting little time on backstory or world-building. While a personal tragedy in Dr. Reese's life becomes relevant to the narrative, Serani prefers to focus on the sense of foreboding that begins in the first chapter and how much Dr. Reese's professional code weighs on her in real-time. It's a magnificent setup, and the build-up pays off early and often throughout the book. Let's hope Serani has a series planned for Dr. Reese.
The Institute by Stephen King
A psychic thriller that ranks among King's best.
Stephen King's latest thriller The Institute is in no way a sequel to Dr. Sleep (which itself was a sequel to The Shining), but thematically speaking, it's a close cousin. As in Dr. Sleep, villains with terrifying psychic powers are hell bent on leveraging the powers of gifted children.
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis's parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents—telekinesis and telepathy—who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and ten-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, "like the roach motel," Kalisha says. "You check in, but you don't check out."
In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don't, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help.
But no one has ever escaped.
Brave readers will not be disappointed.
Watching You by Lisa Jewell
What's creepier than a peeping Tom? How about an obsessive, socially dysfunctional teenager who spends all his free time watching and cataloguing the movements of his neighbors? He even has nicknames for them, like "red boots." Oh, did I mention that his biggest dream is to become a spy?
Melville Heights is one of the nicest neighborhoods in Bristol, England; home to doctors and lawyers and old-money academics. It's not the sort of place where people are brutally murdered in their own kitchens. But it is the sort of place where everyone has a secret.
As the headmaster credited with turning around the local school, Tom Fitzwilliam is beloved by one and all—including Joey Mullen, his new neighbor, who quickly develops an intense infatuation with this thoroughly charming yet unavailable man. Joey thinks her crush is a secret, but Tom's teenaged son Freddie (the one who is always watching) is all too aware.
One of Tom's students, Jenna Tripp, also lives on the same street, and she's not convinced her teacher is as squeaky clean as he seems. For one thing, he has taken a particular liking to her best friend and fellow classmate, and Jenna's mother—whose mental health has admittedly been deteriorating in recent years—is convinced that Mr. Fitzwilliam is stalking her.
Meanwhile, twenty years earlier, a schoolgirl writes in her diary, charting her doomed obsession with a handsome young English teacher named Mr. Fitzwilliams.
Lisa Jewell has created a complete ecosystem made up of just the right people, with the right urges, and the right weaknesses for a delectable mystery. Impeccably paced, Watching You is not to be missed.
Run Away by Harlan Coben
You'd never know by looking at her, but drug addict Paige Green is the daughter of a Wall Street financial adviser and a pediatrician. When her father, Simon, spots her playing guitar and panhandling in Central Park, he tries to help. But all hell breaks loose as addict boyfriend Aaron Corval gets in the way.
Paige flees during the melee, only to become a suspect in Aaron's murder when he's found dead in the Bronx.
Enter, Elena a retired FBI agent who is now a private investigator. The ensuing story is a rollercoaster involving drugs, cults and the power of family. While there are some powerful dramatic moments in the book, the story is driven by quick pacing and plot twists that few will see coming. Expect to be heavily invested in these characters from the get-go.
The Broadcast by Liam Fialkov
What if a technological breakthrough could allow people to view video footage of historical events going back thousands of years?
That is the promise of a fascinating technology at the center of The Broadcast, a novel about a television network called TXB that produces believable footage of contemporary events, as well as historically significant ones, such as the Battle of Gettysburg, without so much as a set, a production crew, actors or animators. The footage appears to be, for lack of a better term, authentic. Is it real, or some kind of hoax?
Meanwhile, TXB fan Sarah, a psychologist who lives with her husband in a small central California town directly on the San Andreas Fault, is perpetually haunted by the forced adoption of her newborn son when she was just sixteen. While she and her husband appear to build a life together – complete with three dogs, eleven cats, the chickens, ducks, and geese – it's really a house of cards on the verge of collapse. The circumstances surrounding her pregnancy and the mystery over her son's whereabouts have left a void in her life that proves impossible to satiate, leading to increasingly provocative behavior that threatens to turn her life upside down. Author Liam Fialkov takes his time building Sarah's character arc, and the payoff is worth the wait.
In terms of sheer real estate, one could argue that this is Sarah's story, but the concept itself is truly the star. When religious groups become concerned about whether TXB can reach back 2000 years, and what future episodes might reveal, Liam Fialkov's fascinating concept becomes a bonafide page-turner. Like Dave Eggers' The Circle, The Broadcast also evokes important questions about society's relationship to media, surveillance and personal privacy.
The Madhouse by Lawrence Matrick M.D.
The Madhouse is the story of New Orleans native Alex Gage, who struggles out of poverty to become not only a respected psychiatrist, but also an aspiring reformist. The story begins in the deep south as Alex is born with a clubfoot that keeps him from being drafted (it would be surgically repaired later in life). Despite his ascension to higher learning, he finds himself working as a physician in a Canadian mental institution – a nightmarish shop of horrors that would make Dante reconsider his definition of hell.
Alex's colleague, Dr. Aaron Levy, a former Italian mafia thug, spends his time sexually assaulting the nurses, plying them with cocaine and morphine, abusing his patients, and talking about himself in the third person ("Aaron is poorly prepared.")
Alex's life takes a turn for the worse when he stupidly confides in Aaron, telling him about a deadly encounter with a man his mother knew back home. Shortly afterwards, Aaron begins blackmailing him, repeatedly requesting that he break the law in exchange for his silence. It's a brilliant twist that instantly raises the book's already sky-high stakes.
Alex's girlfriend, Monique, organizes the women to march and force the early changes to the primitive abortion laws in the country. The nuns, the female ward supervisors, Rani, an East Indian female doctor, and the female nurses endeavor to help Alex change the oppressive attitudes towards the institutionalized orphaned children, the aboriginals, the mentally deficient and intellectually deprived patients. Working together, will they be able to change the course of treatment as to prefrontal lobotomies, and to abolish illegal female sterilization?
Author Lawrence Matrick, M.D. has drawn an extremely evocative world where danger lurks around every corner, especially where medicine is practiced. But The Madhouse is more than just a gritty crime thriller. Matrick, himself a former psychiatrist with experience as a mental hospital resident, employs the medical practices of 20th-century psychiatry to terrifying effect. Note that The Madhouse is not for the faint of heart. The book is chock full of bone-chilling afflictions and remedies, ranging from venereal disease to lobotomies and shock therapy, and Matrick includes them without ever seeming gratuitous. As an added bonus, Matrick has added an epilogue detailing a brief history of the evolution of mental institutions.
To Hell With Johnny Manic by Andrew Diamond
The Bottom Line: One of the year's best thrillers. Part psychological suspense, part contemporary noir, Johnny Manic is wonderfully unreliable.
Tom Gantry, a.k.a. Johnny Manis, a.k.a. Johnny Manic, is having an identity crisis of epidemic proportions. As Tom tells it, the gregarious, effortlessly cool Johnny Manis became legendary in the tech world for making a fortune off mobile video games, publishing a manifesto, then deleting his social media accounts and going off the grid. He has a spotless criminal record, or so he tells himself. Meanwhile, alter ego Tom is a fugitive embezzler with a gambling problem who is in violation of his parole.
As the novel begins, Tom is in a Vegas casino, and is on a losing streak. Afraid that his addiction to roulette and craps will leave him broke, he wires $240,000 to his ailing father's healthcare provider, leaving just $10,000 for his own survival. Eager to get out of town, and yet equally motivated to "kill John Manis once and for all," Tom meets a computer technician from Napa and, following a crazy impulse, offers to purchase the man's struggling business.
Tom may be mixed up about who he is, but grifting his in his blood. When he spots Marilyn Dupree in a grocery store, his killer instinct takes over. Marilyn is the wealthy wife of a philandering software tycoon. Having consciously or unconsciously found his mark, Tom begins a precarious journey that catches the attention of local Detective Lou Eisenfall. As Tom works his magic while balancing his identity, the ensuing cat-and-mouse game is one for the ages.
Andrew Diamond, author of the critically acclaimed Gate 76, has created a truly riveting tale of deception, murder and psychological suspense. Part psychological thriller, part noir, Diamond has accomplished the incredibly difficult task of deriving true suspense from the battle for supremacy going on within Tom's own mind. As Diamond unfurls this highly entertaining caper, readers will take great pleasure in spotting the lies Tom tells himself – and us.
Verses for the Dead by Preston & Child
What could be worse than an extended government shutdown? For the eccentric Aloysius Xingu Leng Pendergast, the answer is a leadership overhaul at the FBI New York field office. Pendergast likes to work alone, and thanks to the agency shakeup, those days are seemingly over.
In Preston and Child's 20th series book, Pendergast and his new colleague, junior agent Coldmoon, are assigned to investigate a rash of killings in Miami Beach, where a bloodthirsty psychopath is cutting out the hearts of his victims and leaving them with cryptic handwritten letters at local gravestones. The graves are unconnected save in one bizarre way: all belong to women who committed suicide.
But the apparent lack of connection between the old suicides and the new murders is soon the least of Pendergast's worries. Because as he digs deeper, he realizes the brutal new crimes may be just the tip of the iceberg: a conspiracy of death that reaches back decades.
It goes without saying that Preston and Child are among the best in the business at constructing a deliciously elaborate crime and meticulously deconstructing it. The question here is whether Pendergast is better served with a partner, and the answer is yes. Like Holmes and Watson, Pendergast and Coldmoon are a wonderfully odd pairing, and equal far more than the sum of their parts. If you've never read any books in the series, Verses for the Dead is a perfect place to start.
LION: Escape from Russia by Douglas Misquita
As the Islamic State closes in on one of Syria's most notorious military prisons, captured Syrian freedom fighter Aslan "The Lion" Terzi is on the brink of suicide. Having suffered betrayal and torture, he welcomes death when the ISIL fighters storm his cell. To his great surprise, they set him free.
But as he is leaving Syria, Terzi learns that Sarah Rashnikov – the daughter of a rebel financier, whom Terzi had vowed to keep safe – is a virtual prisoner by her madman husband (the same man who betrayed Terzi in the days leading up to his capture). Terzi also happens to be in love with her. Against all sound reason, he turns back into the war-torn country to fulfill his destiny.
Author Douglas Misquita's sixth novel is perhaps his richest yet, brimming with complex geopolitics involving Syria and ISIL, intelligence agencies from Russia and the United States, and a large cast of characters. Misquita's depiction of spycraft and alliance-building across organizations and cultures is substantial and completely engrossing.
Ultimately, Terzi's plight is the heart of the novel, which is reminiscent of The Count of Monte Cristo – not only because it begins with a stroke of fortune after a period of prolonged imprisonment, but also because the themes of revenge, duty and love are so prevalent throughout. As heroes go, Terzi is a series-worthy combination of brains, brawn and courage, and Misquita uses him to great effect.
Yellow Death by Alex Lettau
The Bottom Line: Yellow Death is an irresistible medical thriller with the urgency of Contagion and the gritty conspiratorial intrigue of Narcos. One of the year's best thrillers.
When two cases of fatal hepatitis C are reported in a small town, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) sends medical detective Dr. Kris Jensen to Mississippi to investigate. Both victims were junkies. A fatal hep C cluster is almost unheard of, and Dr. Jensen becomes convinced that a previously unknown virus is responsible for the deaths.
And what could be worse than an outbreak of an unknown disease? Losing the expert charged with the investigation. While drawing heart blood from a corpse, Dr. Jensen is accidentally stuck with a needle and infected with the fatal mystery disease.
Author Alex Lettau, the pen name of an American infectious disease specialist, sets the hook deep and early with a series of fast-paced early chapters that would translate well to the big screen. Lettau frames Dr. Jensen with a truly unique conundrum: does she tell anyone she's infected? If she does, she would surely get pulled off the investigation into the outbreak, which could lessen the probability of finding answers to the virus' origin.
After heading to New Orleans in search of a "sparkly" new heroin that could be the cause, she uncovers a conspiracy set in motion by another federal agency. The futility of the war on narcotic drugs, and the blowback by heavy-handed American tactics, has rarely been more smartly illustrated. The entirety of the investigation feels authentic, from the motivations of shadowy DEA agents down to the sketchy lab test results.
Just as the stakes seem as high as they could possibly get, Lettau raises them again: when Dr. Jensen travels to the Venezuelan jungle to investigate the origin of the virus, she finds that her infection isn't the only thing threatening her life.
Bionic Bug by Natasha Bajema
The Bottom Line: A funny, vibrant, high-tech detective novel. One of the year's best thrillers.
Set nearly a decade in the future, Bionic Bug begins as struggling private investigator Lara Kingsley and her partner and best friend, Sully, are hanging out at their favorite local haunt. Lara notices something odd about his appearance, but he doesn't want to talk about it. Days later, the pair arrive separately to a Washington Nationals baseball game. Only Lara leaves the game alive.
Does Sully's death have anything to do with the swarm of drones that descended upon the stadium? What was the gadget he held at the stadium? And did his death have anything to do with a terrorist attack he helped the FBI prevent?
As Lara begins the investigation into Sully's death, she learns that the FBI was actually keeping him under surveillance. Her quest to find out what Sully was involved in and who killed him lead her to a world where gene editing is increasingly threatening, the dark web is alive and well, and the stakes for humanity are higher than she ever imagined.
While Natasha Bajema's twisty plot is well-crafted and filled with plenty of surprises, what sets the novel apart from the crowd is Lara, easily one of the most personable and empathetic characters this year. As a business owner, she's an utter failure, but not because she isn't smart. The brilliant surveillance expert has even joined Mensa as an alternative to online dating, and her observations, whether professional or personal, are often effortlessly hilarious. We look forward to riding along as she fights for love and justice in an increasingly frightening world. Readers will want to get in on the ground floor of this vibrant sci-fi detective series.
Blood-Red Mist by Michael Allan Scott
In Michael Allan Scott's second Jena Halpern series book, the formidable psychic boards a plane to Washington, D.C., where her terminally ill stepfather is hospitalized in nearby Silver Springs Silver Spring. The trip is a powder keg of emotion, as the two haven't spoken in years. At one time in the distant past, the two came perilously close to having an affair.
En route to the hospital, Jena instructs the Uber driver to change course and take her to the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. She's not entirely sure why – it's just a strong feeling. In alternate chapters told from the point of view of FDA Director Thomas A. Friedman, M.D., we gradually understand that Jena is right. Something is very wrong at the FDA. In exchange for ten million dollars and a trip to the Cayman Islands, Friedman is willing to approve a dangerous new antidepressant. But before that can happen, his contact goes missing.
Is there a connection between Jena's stepfather's lymphoma and whatever is happening at the FDA?
Blood-Red Mist finds Jena Halpern trusting her intuition and very real extrasensory powers. At the same time, she realizes that she is extremely vulnerable – the powerful physical effects of her visions have actually hospitalized her in the past. She must somehow learn to control them, and this inner struggle is one of the most compelling stories in fiction today.
Aside from Scott's jaw-dropping character development, he has created a wholly believable medical thriller that is rooted in reality. Blood-Red Mist comes at a time when accusations about FDA corruption appears to be at an all-time high, and the consequences of big pharma's seemingly unchecked power is terrifying. The book isn't just one of the year's best thrillers. It's also one of the most important.

Koszul was appointed as Maître de Conférences at the University of Strasbourg in 1949.
In 1950 Koszul published a major 62 page paper Homologie et cohomologie des algèbres de Lie in which he studied the connections between the homology and cohomology (with real coefficients) of a compact connected Lie group G and purely algebraic problems on the Lie algebra associated with G.
Koszul was honoured with election to the Academy of Sciences in Paris on 28 January 1980.
Although it turns out that the Schur complex is exactly this gen- eralization of the Koszul complex we need, it seems, surprisingly enough, that nobody has tried to generalize the De-Rham complex in a similar man- ner.
I focus on the most fundamental case of the complex associated to the identity map (this is the case important for the applications I have in mind).
Similarly, d equipped 8 with a homological differential is dual to the Koszul complex.
Let R be a commutative ring and I an ideal in R which is locally generated by a regular sequence of length d.
In this paper, we compute the homology of the n-th Koszul complex associated with the homomorphism P_1 --> P_0 for all n, if d = 1.
Furthermore, if d = 2, we compute the homology of the complex N Sym^2 K(P.) where K and N denote the functors occurring in the Dold-Kan correspondence.
This (and the above) makes Koszul complexes an important tool in commutative and homological algebra, for instance in dimension theory and the theory of multiplicities (and intersection theory), cf.
We find a place in the minimal free resolution of a module of finite CI-dimension after which asymptotically stable behavior develops; in particular, beyond this place the sequence of Betti numbers is either constant or strictly increasing, and gaps between consecutive numbers grow polynomially.
Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity is an important measure of the complexity of the differential in a graded minimal free resolution.
Vanishing of the regularity of the residue field defines the class of Koszul algebras, which have received considerable attention due to their extraordinary homological properties and to their appearance in many cases of interest in algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, combinatorics, commutative algebra, and representation theory.
-- provides the i-th differential in the Koszul complex associated to f.
Here f should be a 1 by n matrix.
Abstract: For a large class of rings, including all those encountered in algebraic geometry, we establish the conjectured Morita-like equivalence, known as Foxby equivalence, between the full subcategory of complexes of finite Gorenstein flat dimension and that of complexes of finite Gorenstein injective dimension.
Abstract: The theory of Koszul duality for operads is analogous to the theory of Koszul duality for algebras.
The reason for introducing this notion is to extend the theory of Koszul duality for operads to the situation involving both operations and cooperations.
Let E be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra embedded into the algebra B(X) of bounded linear operators on a complex Banach space X.
X is Banach A-module), such that the Koszul complex generated by E-module (X, \alpha) is a Banach complex of A-modules.
Assume that the image of L on each member of the Koszul complex is finite-dimensional.
is the natural generalization of the Koszul complex.
Nous rappelons dans la première partie quelques résultats de base sur le complexe de Koszul gradué.
The central theorem of this paper is a result on the degree where the higher non-zero homology module of the Koszul complex constructed with homogeneous polynomials over a field becomes non trivial.
This result has a straightforward corollary on the complexity of the determination of the dimension of a projective variety.
Although the question was not fully answered in the Bourbaki series, its pursuit opened up new fields of mathematics.
In our new approach, we begin with an infinitesimal algebraic formulation of Stokes' theorem via the Koszul complex over a normed vector space.
This induces a family of norms over pointed chains of the Koszul complex.
This construction is generalized to arbitrary differential operators on a smooth fiber bundle.
Namely, if a certain necessary and sufficient condition holds, one can associate to a differential operator the exact chain complex with the boundary operator whose nilpotency condition restarts all the Noether identities characterizing the degeneracy of an original differential operator.
Users are cautioned not to use it for academic evaluation yet.
