A new cellular communication architecture, called a `virtual cellular network' (VCN) is proposed and its performance is investigated in terms of probability of capture, throughput and delay. A VCN does not use a conventional cellular frequency reuse concept. In a VCN, each terminal sends packets using the entire system bandwidth while any nearby port can pick up the signal. Then, the ports relay the packets to the port server (PS) over a fixed (wired) network. This simplifies the functions of a port, and the placement of ports will be easier than that in a conventional cellular network. Both the present analysis and simulation show that despite its simplicity this network has a larger user capacity than conventional cellular reuse patterns

Windows XP and later support symbolic links. Yet, Windows continues to use shortcut files (which essentially store the location of the linked file as text). Why?
A number of reasons, I guess
There will be more reasons than this, but I think that's enough to get you started :) - There's a link provided by @grawity here that will give some further reading on parts of this topic.
A symlink is nothing more than a path wrapped up in a very small amount of filesystem magic. There are any number of ways it can become invalid ("broken"), most of which involve one or more files or directories getting renamed. Since Windows is consumer software, you may have a large number of very poorly designed programs running on a "typical" installation. As a result, this kind of breakage is a lot harder to avoid than on a server where (in theory) every program that touches the disk is a known quantity.
Shortcuts are immune to most forms of breakage since they track their targets independently of path. This makes them more user-friendly. They are specifically designed for consumers, with a "just do what I mean and don't bother me about the details" approach.
Now, you could use hard links for that (to some extent), but hard links have a number of complicated properties which make them unsuitable for consumer use. In particular, files get new inode numbers entirely too easily and some backup software breaks rather spectacularly when confronted with hard links. The former could (perhaps) be solved with filesystem tunneling (which is in fact how shortcuts solve a related problem), but the latter is a much harder problem.
(I should probably also note that "solving" hard links with tunneling is decidedly nontrivial since it's not just a matter of reattaching metadata that's "gotten lost." Inodes are bound up in the disk allocation scheme, so you can't just arbitrarily merge or reassign them after the fact without a fair bit of legwork. Since shortcuts use other metadata that can be easily tunneled, like the creation time, they don't have this issue.)

UConn has received signed national letters of intent from forward Kentan Facey and point guard Terrence Samuel who will play for the Huskies next year.
They were AAU teammates, playing for the N.Y. Rens program.
"I'm elated to have both of these young men sign a letter of intent with our program," UConn coach Kevin Ollie said in a released statement. "They are high-character people and quality basketball players. I know they will both have great senior seasons at their high schools and we can't wait until they get to Storrs this summer and become part of our family."
The 6-foot-9, 195-pound Facey, a top 100 recruit, attends Long Island Lutheran High School and resides in Glen Head on Long Island. He was born and raised in Jamaica. Considered a solid rebounder and shot blocker, he helped Lutheran go 23-6 last season and win the Federation Class A championship.
"Kentan has a relentless motor on the court," Ollie said. "He is someone who can come in here and be a solid rebounder, who will pursue the basketball every time, up and down the court. Plus, he's a fabulous young man. I can't wait to coach him."
Samuel, who checks in at 6-4, 180 pounds, goes to South Shore High School in Brooklyn. When he made an oral commitment in early September, he called UConn his "dream school." Last season, he averaged 11.7 points and 4.8 assists while leading South Shore to a 17-9 record and second straight PSAL Class AA quarterfinal trip.
"Terrence is a big, strong guard who plays with grit and toughness," Ollie said. "He's a very unselfish player with great court vision. I expect him to be a leader for us on and off the basketball court."

They are voting in Indiana, and the polls will be closing soon. I do not understand this presidential campaign at all. We are told that the people are really angry. According to the media and Donald Trump, they are angry about illegal immigration, and unfair trade policy that is negatively affecting our country. According to exit polls, the people are not particularly concerned about immigration as it is far down the list of concerns, and majorities prefer a path to citizenship.
Mr. Trump is going to build a huge big wall. And he is going to put big tariffs on any country that isn't being fair. He's going to be nicer to our friends so we will be closer, but he will insist that they pay a larger share of the cost of protecting them from radical Islam. He liked World War II and the Cold War, but is against any foreign adventures since.
What the people seem to be angry about is the economy, the lack of jobs, jobs going to immigrants, they are fearful about terrorism, angry about the ridiculous hooplah over women's restrooms being open to men, the increased cost of ObamaCare, the lack of jobs and economic growth, and increased inflation while salaries have not risen at all. Jobs have vanished on coal country, employment is down in oil and gas country because of the drop in the price of oil, some manufacturing jobs have gone overseas because of high corporate taxes, and some high-tech jobs have gone to H1-B immigrants.
All of these problems are the direct result of policies of the Obama administration. The stimulus didn't work. Republicans warned that ObamaCare was not going to work and would cost more, not less; every Republican voted against he initial law, and have voted to repeal the act five times, Obama has vetoed their efforts each time. Jobs have gone to offshore companies as a direct result of the highest corporate tax in the world. The rise of ISIS and the war in Syria and the Middle East is a direct result of Obama pulling the troops out of Iraq too soon. President Obama vowed early to bankrupt the coal companies, which he has done in a misguided and fruitless battle against catastrophic global warming which exists only in the computer programs of the IPCC. And in refusing to utter the words Islamic terrorism, Obama has skewed all of our perceptions of the Middle East and what is happening.
So the people are furious with the Republicans? Huh?
They blame the policies of the Obama administration on the Republicans? They don't think the Republicans have done enough to stop the administration?
This is the first time, as far as I know, when a President of the United States has deliberately decided that "he has a phone and a pen" and he will accomplish by executive order or actions of agencies whatever he wants, and that he will pay no attention to the Constitution of the United States of America, because he believes it to be a tired old document that needs repealing or fixing. The remedies available are to proceed through the courts in one lawsuit or another or to impeach the president. The Republicans have voted to repeal ObamaCare five times, Obama has vetoed every bill.
Results are in from Indiana, and Donald Trump has enough votes that he will be the presumptive nominee, for he is sure to pick up enough from states like California and Washington, for example, from the remainder of states left. Ted Cruz has suspended his campaign.
I am not and have not been a Trump supporter. I do not understand what they hope for from what little Mr. Trump has had to say in his speeches. His supporters seem to put a lot of faith in "Make America Great Again" and "America First" which was a discredited slogan from the America First Committee which was highly non-interventionist in the days just before World War II. I guess they see it as patriotism and strength. I see it as lacking in evidence.
We'll see. Mr. Trump hasn't even released his tax returns, and is due to face trial for fraud regarding his promotion of Trump University. But then the case against Hillary proceeds slowly as well. What a weird, weird electoral season.

If you have narcissistic personality disorder, you may come across as conceited, boastful or pretentious. You often monopolize conversations. You may belittle or look down on people you perceive as inferior. You may feel a sense of entitlement—and when you don't receive special treatment, you may become impatient or angry. You may insist on having "the best" of everything—for instance, the best car, athletic club or medical care.
At the same time, you have trouble handling anything that may be perceived as criticism. You may have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability and humiliation. To feel better, you may react with rage or contempt and try to belittle the other person to make yourself appear superior. Or you may feel depressed and moody because you fall short of perfection. . . .
[The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5] . . . criteria for narcissistic personality disorder include these features:
Having an exaggerated sense of self-importance
Expecting to be recognized as superior even without achievements that warrant it
Exaggerating your achievements and talents
Being preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate . . .
Behaving in an arrogant or haughty manner

On April 18, Hot Air reported that "President Obama has decided to add 217 more troops to fight in Iraq, raising the total number now serving in the country to just over 4,000." AP reported:
Of the additional troops, most would be Army special forces, who have been used throughout the anti-Islamic State campaign to advise and assist the Iraqis. The remainder would include some trainers, security forces for the advisers, and maintenance teams for the Apaches.
The decisions reflect weeks of discussions with commanders and Iraqi leaders, and a decision by President Barack Obama to increase the authorized troop level in Iraq by 217 forces – or from 3,870 to 4,087. The advise-and-assist teams – made up of about a dozen troops each accompanied by security forces – would embed with Iraqi brigades and battalion, likely putting them closer to the front lines and at greater risk from mortars and rocket fire.
They are also sending Apache helicopters in addition to the advise-and-assist teams. The goal is to retake Mosul from ISIS, which they have held since June 2014. There will also be operations to take Raqqa, ISIS's capital in Syria. You will notice that we always make an effort to tell the enemy just what we have in mind and what our plans are.
A U.S. military spokesman said that ISIS has lost nearly half its strength during the recent bombing campaign. They have put exceptional pressure on ISIS over the past 20 months. Strikes on ISIS-held oilfields have seen its cash flow cut by a third, and ISIS fighters have had their pay cut by half.
Six hundred ISIS fighters have been killed in the past three weeks alone, and precision drone strikes and covert Special Forces raids to take out senior leaders have left the terrorists "paranoid and in chaos." 650 RAF strikes have helped to force the group to flee from 40 percent of the territory they once held in northern Iraq.
President Bush recommended that we should leave 20,000 troops in Iraq to maintain the hard-won peace, but the new President Obama had run on an anti-Iraq War campaign and a promise to get the troops out of Iraq. Once in charge, he ignored the Bush warnings, and abruptly pulled the military out, which inevitably led to the rise of ISIS.
It apparently took weeks of discussion to get to the point of adding 217 special forces troops. President Obama does not want to be blamed for any unfortunate events or bad results, but he does have confidence in America's special forces. His fear of being blamed is probably the reason for unusually restricted rules of engagement that have left our military in a vulnerable position.
Filed under: Democrat Corruption, Foreign Policy, Intelligence, Iraq, Middle East, National Security, Politics, The United States | Tags: Guantanamo Bay, Key ISIS Operatives, President Barack Obama
American Special Forces have captured their first "significant" ISIS operative during a raid in Northern Iraq, and they are likely to capture other ISIS fighters. The problem is that President Obama has foreclosed the ability of the military to send them to Guantanamo.
President Obama is deeply concerned about what he believes to be world opinion. He is quite sure that ISIS and al Qaeda use the existence of Gitmo, which he believes to be a "torture chamber," as a recruiting tool. However, intelligence operatives who read ISIS and al Qaeda propaganda and communications see no evidence of that whatsoever. Obama is intent on releasing all of the detainees, even though those who remain are clearly the "worst of the worst."
The recidivism rate is quite high at around 30%, but Obama seems to believe that the danger that he would be blamed is higher for keeping Guantanamo open than for any actions by former detainees down the road when he is out of office. You may have noticed that President Obama is never, never to blame for anything at all.
Congress has made it illegal to bring terrorist detainees to this country, Officials, according to the New York Times, report that the ISIS detainee will eventually be turned over to Iraqi or Kurdish officials. There will be other high value ISIS targets captured. Over time, they often reveal details of the Islamic State's organization and operations, and that is valuable. I suspect that the president will attempt to turn Guantanamo back to Cuban jurisdiction on his coming trip to Cuba, but I have no evidence whatsoever for that supposition. Obama could not have chosen a worse time to shutter Gitmo.
The President has recognized Cuba and offered trade and tourists, with nothing from the Cubans in exchange, except their insistence that nothing will change on their part, and the brutality and lack of respect for the human rights of their citizens will continue.

I'm passionate about history. I think it's imperative for our young people to get a thorough grounding in our history. If we are granting them the privilege of voting, they should know something about our nation and the world. That said, I think most of my own knowledge of history came after I'd graduated from college.
Of course we read reports of kids who can't find Florida on a map, or who simply have never been taught anything about history. So I shouldn't be too ready to cast aspersions on ignorant college kids now. If they don't know anything, it's not their fault. They have never been taught.
But this video made me cry. If young people know nothing else, they should know what World War II was about, and why it matters. This woman is the daughter of a Holocaust survivor. and she is deeply concerned that students are ill-equipped to understand that there is genocide going on right now. I'm not even Jewish, though I don't know what that has to do with anything. Five states require specific education about the Holocaust. There should be more. Unfortunately kids are more apt to be taught about "social justice." A favorite phrase of the Left — meaningless.
There aren't all that many survivors left, nor many of those who witnessed it. How can you understand the story of the "Force of the Sun Ladies" in the last post if you do not understand the depths to which humans can descend when radicalized by politics, or religion, or simple greed.
We have a presidential election campaign going on, and so far, voters seem determined to nominate those least equipped to deal with the current problems of the world. It's a very scary world out there, and the current president has, through his own ignorance of history, weakened America, weakened our military, destroyed relations with our most dependable allies, and increased the chances that we will be attacked here at home with great loss of life.
Edmund Burke said "Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it" back in the 1700s, and it has been repeated over and over. Think of it as a plea to learn from history. Teach your kids at home. If you don't know your own history — study up.
Filed under: Freedom, Iran, Iraq, Military, National Security, Police, Syria, Terrorism, Women | Tags: Angela Merkel, Murmansk - Russia, Yazidi "Force of the Sun Ladies"
But they are refugees — we owe them empathy and compassion, we have to help them, don't we? German Chancellor Angela Merkel saw the desperate bombed out cities and towns in Syria on television, and invited the refugees to come to Germany, because they needed more workers, and owed them compassion. The politicos seem to line up with Chancellor Merkel, but the people are not so sure.
During the New Years celebration in Cologne, Germany at least a thousand North African refugees groped women, there were allegations of two rapes, and the mayor of the city requested that women monitor their "code of conduct." (Look what she was wearing, she was asking for it) The authorities are dedicated to tolerance, which trumps both survival and personal safety.
In Russia, 51 Muslim refugees expelled from Norway go to a nightclub in Murmansk, grope and molest women, and wake up in the hospital. Russians don't have all that much tolerance when it comes to sexual assault on local women, in the manner that women were attacked in Cologne. A group of Russian men took them aside to teach them a lesson. and gave them a beating they would remember. Police arrived to break up the fight, but threw a few punches at the refugees before arresting 33 of them. Eighteen were in such bloody condition they had to be taken to the hospital.
The police decided not to file a report, but they did confirm that there was a "mass brawl involving refugees."
There were various reports about from where the Muslim Refugees were expelled. some said Cologne, others said they were expelled from Norway for "bad behavior." What seems to be fairly universal is the tolerance expressed and enforced in Western Europe. Herbert London described the situation:
Much of the chaos Germany now endures was predictable. After all, many Muslim men treat woman as inferior, mere objects for their sexual delectation. The Koran endorses the proposition that a woman has half the rights of a man in any legal proceeding. Nonetheless, the compassion crusade goes on.
Common sense would suggest that those who cannot assimilate should never be allowed in and those whose behavior violates German law should be thrown out. But that isn't the conversation in political councils; it is the conversation on the street. The authorities generally stand with Merkel.
We are suffering from the same tolerance delusion here. The president recoils from calling anyone a "terrorist" — they are "extremists," but then so is anyone in this country who has a concealed carry permit or holds up a Gadsden flag, or resides in one of those odd states like Texas or Oklahoma or Idaho. It's all very strange, and requires careful use of language.
In Erbil, Iraq, "some 2.000 Yazidi women who were captured in the brutal August 2014 attack on their mountain stronghold — have escaped and taken up arms against their former tormentors.They witnessed the slaughter of their families on Mount Sinjar and then were forced into sexual slavery." They call themselves the 'Force of the Sun Ladies' and are ready to fight for vengeance. They have been trained and are ready to fight alongside the Kurdish Peshmerga forces. They range in age from 17 to 37 and there are 500 more waiting to be trained.
The Ladies are reportedly killing about ten ISIS fighters every day.

HD Tune is a Hard Disk utility which has the following functions:

- Info: shows detailed information
- Health: checks the health status by using SMART
- Error Scan: scans the surface for errors
- Temperature display
HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has been gaining popularity amongst reviewers. It is now considered a must have application for storage device testing.
It looks like the inclusion of USB 3.0 to the N002 didn't slow down the SATA II performance. In the charts you can watch the performance against the Corsair Nova, another Barefoot ECO controlled drive that uses the same flash.
Looking at the USB 3.0 read speed, the X58A-UD7 does have a speed limit, but it is much faster than USB 2.0.
On the SATA II connection we had a bit of a dip, but it was only briefly. The average write speeds for both SATA and USB 3.0 were nearly identical.

Music Voyager
This music and travel TV series invites viewers to discover the exciting sounds of the planet. Host Jacob Edgar is an explorer who does not search for lost cities or ancient ruins. He's on the quest for a different kind of treasure music. As an ethnomusicologist and world music record producer, Edgar travels the globe hunting for the best songs the world has to offer, and he suffers through some of the worst so you don't have to. Along the way, he's rewarded with a backstage pass to concert halls, street festivals, recording studios and rehearsal rooms. With local musicians as his guide, Edgar tastes exotic and occasionally ghastly food, visits off-the-beaten path attractions and parties the night away to amazing concerts at hidden venues that only the locals know.

Host Jacob Edgar travels to Israel to attend a once-in-a-lifetime concert of The Idan Raichel Project at the foot of the magnificent "Solomon's Pillars", a natural rock formation in the Negev Desert near the Red Sea resort city of Eilat. Idan Raichel, an internationally renowned star of the Israeli music scene, serves as his guide. At the technical rehearsals and sound check for the desert concert, Jacob meets the artists featured on stage. Idan performs with Cape Verdean singer Mayra Andrade on the edge of a stunning cliff. Ravid Kahalani performs in an unplugged session with members of his side project Yemen Blues and talks about the unique history and music of the Yemenite community. Cabra Casey, another lead voice in the Idan Raichel Project, introduces the fascinating story of Israel's Ethiopian immigrants. He also meets Palestinian-Israeli singer and television actress Mira Awad, who has recorded with Idan Raichel. She reflects on how artistic collaboration can lead to a hopeful future for Israel and the region. Then, Jacob interviews Idan while floating in the salty waters of the Dead Sea. Next, Idan and Jacob travel to Jerusalem for a visit to the Wailing Wall and a magnificent private home overlooking the Old City. The episode culminates with a song featuring the full project from the live concert in the desert.

Top Customer Reviews
As a side note, one of the reasons I dislike purchasing computers as opposed to building them, is all of the bloatware that manufacturers load up on them. And while this system had just as much as I expected, it was easy to remove it. I was particularly surprised at how easily it was to remove the included anti-virus software as that often times is the biggest pain.
I've got this PC connected to my 46" Samsung LCD HDTV. If I set this computer to run at the highest resolution (which would be 1080p) the windows desktop goes beyond the display of the TV. So the edges of the image are cropped off. My TV doesn't offer any setting to fix this, which is frustrating. Additionally frustrating is that this higher resolution is the only one that my TV will allow adjustments on. Meaning that, if I select the next lowest resolution, the TV will not allow me to make color modifications, or turn on the 120hz option. This is a tad frustrating, but in truth, I think this is a TV issue, not a PC issue. But if you intend to connect this to a Samsung TV you might encounter similar problems.
Also, if you want to be able to install additional RAM, this IS the model you want. On the purchase page Amazon had a link for an Acer which they claimed was the newer version. It had a faster processor, and the same RAM, but it was limited to a maximum of 4GB. This PC is upgradeable to 16GB according to the Acer website. So that's a plus in my book. And while I didn't install more RAM, this was something I considered as a selling point. This is information you can really only get from copy and pasting the model number into Google and finding the link to the manufacturer page.
The plethora of (8) USB ports, 2 of which are USB 3.0, should be enough for most people. The included HDMI port is great for attaching to my flat panel TV, which I plan on doing in the near future. There is no built in wifi, but for the price point, you can easily add a card or USB adapter (just hope you have better luck than my initial try!).
Bottom line, I am glad I bought it and love the smaller form factor and am getting used to the vertical DVD/CD ROM drive. It has burned several DVD movies with no problem, as well as music CD's, so I'm guessing it is as stable as a regular horizontal device.
I had a long webchat with Acer Customer Service to pin down the aforesaid memory expansion modules which was I am quite sure an international dialog and which became amusing at times with respect to repeating the question several different ways to get the point across. In the end, the tech couldn't really pin down the details of the required modules by suggested part no., but did tell me the current installed configuration and how it could be expanded. Bottom line - at least there is someone to talk to regarding service with respect to this PC.Read more ›

In the Dark of the Nightby John Saul

Summer vacation becomes a season in hell for an ordinary family who unwittingly stir something invisible, insidious, and insatiable from its secret slumber–unleashing a wave of horror only the darkest evil could create, that only a master of spine-tingling terror like John Saul could orchestrate. For deep in the shadows in the dark of the night lurks something as big as life . . . and as real as death.
It has waited seven years for someone to come back to the rambling lakeside house called Pinecrest, which has stood empty since its last owner went missing. For upscale Chicago couple Dan and Merrill Brewster, the old midwestern manse is an ideal retreat, and for their kids, Eric and Marci, it's the perfect place to spend a lazy summer exploring. Which is how Eric and his teenage friends discover the curious cache of discarded objects stowed in a hidden room of Pinecrest's carriage house. The bladeless hacksaws, shadeless lamps, tables with missing legs, headless axe handle, and other unremarkable items add up to a pile of junk. Yet someone took the trouble to inventory each worthless relic in a cryptic ledger. It has all the makings of a great mystery–whispering, coaxing, demanding to be solved.
But the more the boys devote themselves to restoring the forgotten possessions and piecing together the puzzle behind them, the more their fascination deepens into obsession. Soon their days are consumed with tending the strange, secret collection–while their nights become plagued by ever more ghastly dreams, nightmares that soon seep into reality. And when a horrifying discovery surfaces, so does the chilling truth–about the terrifying events that rocked the town seven years before, the mysterious disappearance of Pinecrest's last resident, and a twisted legacy with a malevolent life of its own . . . and a bottomless hunger for new victims.

In the Dark of the Night
By John Saul

Chapter One
The hands on the classroom clock were crawling far too slowly toward the weekend. Eric Brewster fidgeted in his seat as Mr. Smallwood reiterated the English assignment, but Eric wasn't paying much attention. Everybody in class--everybody in school--had spring fever, including the teacher, and Eric was certain that nobody intended to do much homework, any more than Mr. Smallwood expected it would get done. Not tonight, not this weekend, not next week, which was the last week of school before summer vacation.
When the bell rang, Eric was out of his seat, out the door, dodging fast-moving bodies as he made his way to his locker to dump his books. Long summer evenings weren't made for studying, and he was already thinking about the possibilities when Kent Newell started working the combination to the locker next to his. Which meant that Tad Sparks, the third member of the triad that had formed in kindergarten and was still thriving in the next to last year of high school, wouldn't be far behind. When any two of them were together, the third was sure to be close by.
Except in summer, when the Newells and the Sparkses headed for rented summer houses in Wisconsin, while the Brewsters sweated it out in Evanston, just barely north of Chicago, and, where they lived, not quite close enough to Lake Michigan to catch whatever coolbreeze the water might conjure up. But maybe this summer would be different. This summer his parents were looking for a summer rental, too. Of course, so far the looking had proved futile. It seemed every house at Phantom Lake had been rented months ago, and the ugly possibility that he might be stuck without his friends for another summer was starting to seem like an even uglier reality.
As usual, Kent Newell read his mind. "Your folks find a house yet?"
Eric shook his head, and memories of the single week he and his parents had spent at the lake with Kent's family last summer rose up to taunt him: fishing, swimming, waterskiing all day; barbecuing fresh trout or steaks outside in the evening while pretending the mosquitoes weren't nearly as bad as they were. Walking into town after supper to get an ice cream cone or just hang out ogling the local girls. Eric had loved it all, and so had his parents, even though all they'd done was sit around in chairs on the lawn or on the dock in front of the Newells' house, just talking.
But this year, with a lot of convincing from Kent's mom, his parents had decided they should rent a house of their own for the summer. At least, Eric's father was convinced.
His mother was a different story. All she kept talking about was how nervous she'd be, all alone in a house in the middle of the woods. Except that it wouldn't be the middle of the woods. It would be on the lake. And she wouldn't be all alone at all. He'd be there, and his sister Marci would be there, and every weekend his father would be there, too.
If his mother stopped dragging her heels, that is, and actually found them a house.
"We're going up on the twenty-second this year," Kent said. "Your mom's got to find a place, and she needs to do it quick."
Eric nodded. "Yeah."
Tad Sparks arrived then, and was greeted with one of Kent's arm punches, which had grown more painful over the last year, since Kent had spurted past six feet and put on twenty pounds, all of which was muscle. "This is the summer," Kent said, grinning slyly at Tad. "I can feel it."
"Feel what?" Tad said.
"You're gonna get laid, man. You're finally going to do it!"
Tad's face reddened as he followed Eric out into the already humid midwestern afternoon.
"Those girls up at the lake are just waiting for you," Kent went on, nudging Eric. "I mean, they are going to be hot for you this year. And Eric's gotta be there when you finally give it up, so we've got to get his mom in gear. I mean, there's got to be one house left, doesn't there? A cancellation or something?"
"But it's got to be in The Pines," Tad said. "You've got to make sure it's in The Pines."
Eric sighed. "Right now I don't care where it is, just so it's close to you guys."
"Which means The Pines," Kent said, rolling his eyes.
"We'll go fishing," Tad said.
"You'll dance naked with girls," Kent added, winking at Eric. "There's a dance every Friday night in the pavilion. If Tad can't get laid there, there's no help for him at all."
Eric groaned. "So far all Mom says is she can't find anything. Except I've got a feeling she's not really trying."
Kent Newell's brows arched, and his voice dropped to a conspiratorial level. "Ah, but you see, I've got an ace in the hole."
Eric eyed him. "Yeah? What?"
"My mom," Kent declared. "She knows some people up there. Hell, she knows everybody up there. And believe me, if there's a place at The Pines, she'll find it. And she'll talk your mom into taking it."
They paused at the corner. "I gotta get home," Tad said. "See you guys later."
"I'm going to go work out," Kent said to Eric. "Want to go to the gym?"
Eric hesitated, then shook his head, his good mood now long gone. If his mother was scared about being up in Wisconsin without his father during the week, then that would be that. And given that his mother was scared of practically everything, the possibility that she'd wind up just refusing to go even if someone did find them a house was all too real. "I think I'll just go home, too," he said.
Once again Kent read his mood. "Ah, who needs the gym," he said, clapping Eric on the shoulder. "Let's grab a Coke, then go over to my house and see if my mom's found your folks a house yet."
Eric shrugged. Better to hang with Kent right now than go home, where he might well be stuck with his ten-year-old sister all summer, once again spending endless days mowing and trimming the lawn while his mom went out to lunch with her friends and his father worked and Marci would stick to him like glue, constantly asking her ten-year-old's questions while he was thinking his sixteen-year-old's thoughts.
While his friends were at Phantom Lake, fishing and swimming and waterskiing.
And getting laid.
Without him.
Falling in beside Kent, Eric felt the summer already slipping away even though it hadn't yet actually begun.

I only recently discovered John Saul and this is the 5th book of his I've read in the last month. None of his books are disappointing! He can tell a story! I loved the idea of putting items from real serial killers in with the story. It does start out a little slow as compared to the rest of his books, but after the first 60 pages things pick up and keep moving. It's definitely a good book and worth the read.
Take a trip in the mind of me :) this is a g rated version of a every day nightmare
If you like John Saul you will enjoy this one, written in his classic suspenseful manner. Ive never found one of his novels that I didnt like. Strong content, good characters, and a dramatic build. Good all nighter!
This was my first book a read by John Saul, and i couldn't have asked for more. My only complain is that the book gets off to a bit of a slow start, however it does not detract at all from the book as a whole. at the time when I was reading this book it was a time before I read a lot of books as I am starting to now. However I managed to finish this book in two days, it really hooked me and made me constantly eager to find out what would happen next. I would highly recommend this book.
I found the plot of the book to be a very interesting idea but Saul still could have done a little more to provide more thrill to it. Although, it was exciting to find out what was causing the "disturbance" at Pinecrest which alone made it worth the read. If you are looking for a book thats going to knock your socks off then this is not it but if you are looking for a good horror story then I recommmend this book!

Sports are very big and people wear asu stuff around campus
Health & Safety:
The have those box things also online we have to complete this safety and consent thing
I started at a community college and i chose to do the MAPP program. Once you complete the MAPP program you get into the major that you signed up for.
Local Area:
There's always a lot to do off and on campus. It's easy finding something to do if you just want to get away for a day.
Off-Campus Dining:
i don't eat of campus a lot but when i do there are a lot of available choices. its priced fairly but i still try to save as much money as i can.
Financial aid was easily provided when i needed it. i don't have any tips but if you need it it shouldn't be too hard to find or receive.
Health & Safety:
I feel very safe on campus. i am always cautious but i feel good about walking alone and not being worried about my safety. there are emergency buttons all over campus and the police station is very close.
I don't know too much about the strictness. I haven't gotten into any trouble but those who do would know more about certain consequences. Its best to just follow the rules that are given by the administration.
I just switched to business communication but both programs have been great. Advisors and administrators are very helpful. The workload is very moderate, challenging but not too difficult. I enjoy this school and all it has to offer.
Local Area:
I really enjoy the area. There are things to do for almost anyone no matter their interests.
Party Scene:
The party scene at ASU is most like other schools. I have been to other colleges and there is no difference really and other schools even have better parties than here.
Campus Housing:
I currently live at the Hassyampa dorms and they're awesome. It's a huge community of mainly freshman that are all in the same boat as you and want to meet new people. The dining hall and other food options are close and not bad for college food. All of my classes are easy to get to and the staff in the dorms are always present and helpful.
The school spirit here at ASU is through the roof. Every friday everyone is dressed in gold. People camp outside of Wells Fargo arena for days just to get good seats for the football games. If you don't attend a game, its on your tv and your always cheering on our team. No matter what the final score comes out to people will continue to bleed maroon and gold and support ASU athletic teams.
Health & Safety:
I feel safe on campus
really slow. not good at calling you back. good at "passing the buck".
Party Scene:
ASU has the best party scene and is definitely a huge party school
Greek Life:
Greek life at ASU is terrible since there is no greek row
Off-Campus Housing:
With the amount of options available it is really easy to find housing
As an out of state student they gave me a good amount of money
Local Area:
I love Tempe. It is always lively and there are always parties going on. Everyone is really friendly and genuinely really nice.
Health & Safety:
I have never had a problem with the my safety while on campus.
I have not had an internship, but there are always internship fairs held throughout the year.
Campus Housing:
Manzanita Hall is definitely one of the best dorms on campus. Since only CLAS students are able to stay in this dorm, it really creates a community where everyone knows each other.
Party Scene:
if you dont know anyone in greek life there is no partying
ASU has major school spirit. students camp out around the wells fargo stadium just to get football tickets. ASU students love supporting their team

Sorry, there are no reviews.
Arizona State is like no other university in the country. With a large, vibrant, and exciting student body that truly makes the campus unique, there is no arguing that ASU is by any means a boring place to be for the next four years of your life. As soon as you step onto ASU's campus, you will feel the immense amount of positive and exciting energy that gives you sense of belonging. Even though there are so many students around campus, you will be sure to find a niche to call your own. College is the time to find yourself and truly learn who you are as you prepare for the real world. ASU provides the perfect environment to challenge you to make "adult" decisions, and you won't always, but by the end of it all, you will mature into a dedicated individual!
Even though students will struggle with all-nighters, sports practice, parking tickets, and trying to recover from a great night, many of them couldn't ask for anything else. There will be times that you are drowning in homework and studying, but by the end of it all, you will look back and laugh. Your peers help you get through the tough times and make those social outings even more fun. ASU knows how to party hard, but when it comes to crunch time, we pull it off well. The kids here know how to have a great time, the nightlife and social settings are extremely fun, the academics are quite challenging—especially when you apply yourself and take it seriously—but most importantly, students will leave prepared for post-graduation and taking on the world. ASU is a fantastic place to meet new people and a great way to experience life in the great southwest. But don't take my word for it—come on out and experience it for yourself!
