# Laws of Deception

Laws of Deception is an erotic suspense thriller film produced in 1997. Written by Rollin Jarrett and directed by Joey Travolta, it stars C. Thomas Howell, James Russo, Amber Smith, Nick Mancuso and Brian Austin Green.

## Plot synopsis

The plot involves a young man, Evan Marino, who witnessed the murder of his mob-connected parents when he was a child. Evan (C. Thomas Howell) has grown up to become a top law student and justice has become his religion. He has but one goal, which is to become the number one criminal lawyer in Miami. A beautiful and mysterious woman Elise (Amber Smith) enters Evan's life and unbeknownst to him, has been hired by his parents’ murderer, Gino Carlucci, (James Russo) to uncover what he remembers. As the truth about his past is revealed, Evan finds himself caught in a tangled web of lies and twisted motivations, not the least of which are his own. Evan eventually discovers that his best friend Cal sleeps with his former lover after school. It turns out that Elise Talbot was hired by Gino Carlucci to watch Evan. She later marries Gino. Gino Carlucci is killed and Elise is the prime suspect. She proclaims her innocence and implicates Cal who becomes an alcoholic because of his past relationship with Elise. Cal commits suicide and Evan becomes convinced that Elise murdered Gino Carlucci so he no longer represents her in the case. As she is found guilty, the final twist reveals that Evan killed Gino Carlucci as revenge for killing his parents. The film features a brief cameo by famed director John Landis as a crooked judge.

# GLOH

GLOH (Gradient Location and Orientation Histogram) is a robust image descriptor that can be used in computer vision tasks. It is a SIFT-like descriptor that considers more spatial regions for the histograms. An intermediate vector is computed from 17 location and 16 orientation bins, for a total of 272-dimensions. Principal components analysis (PCA) is then used to reduce the vector size to 128 (same size as SIFT descriptor vector).
# GB Tran

GB Tran is an American cartoonist and graphic designer. He is best known for his graphic novel, Vietnamerica, which won a Society of Illustrators Gold Medal and was included in Time's list of Top 10 Graphic Memoirs.

## Biography

GB Tran grew up in South Carolina with immigrant parents from Vietnam. During his childhood, he was largely indifferent to his background. In his late twenties, due to the deaths of his grandparents, he visited Vietnam for the first time and became more acquainted with his immigrant parents' and grandparents' history.
This experience inspired him to write Vietnamerica, a graphic novel depicting the struggles encountered by his grandparents in French Indochina and his parents during the Vietnam War and in their immigration to the United States. Vietnamerica was published in 2011.
Currently, GB Tran lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area and teaches at California College of the Arts.

# I Can't Hold Out

"I Can't Hold Out", also known as "Talk to Me Baby", is a blues song written by Willie Dixon and recorded by Elmore James in 1960 for the Chess label. Called a classic and a "popular James standard", it has been interpreted and recorded by several artists.

## Composition and recording

Blues arranger/songwriter Willie Dixon wrote "Talk to Me Baby (I Can't Hold Out)" in late 1958 or 1959 in Los Angeles while he was on tour with Memphis Slim. According to Dixon, he was inspired to write the song after a telephone conversation with his wife Marie.
   I just talked to my baby, on the telephone She said 'Stop what you're doin', and come on home' I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long I get a real good feelin', talkin' to you on the phone
When Dixon returned to Chicago, Elmore James had a recording session for Chess Records and invited Dixon to participate. Together, they "made that 'Talk to Me Baby (I Can't Hold Out Too Long)'", although Dixon does not perform on the song and James is given the composer credit on the label. For the recording session, James, who sang and played slide guitar, was accompanied by his long-time backing band the Broomdusters: J. T. Brown on saxophone, Johnny Jones on piano, Odie Payne on drums, and Homesick James on guitar.

## Releases

"I Can't Hold Out" has been described as a "jumping 'Dust My Broom' styled number ... that featured Dixon's trademark stop-time arrangement after each verse". After recording the song in April 1960, Chess prepared for a rush release of the single in May 1960, to capitalize on the success of James' previous single for Fire Records, "The Sky Is Crying", which was then entering the Billboard R&B chart. Elmore James was listed as the songwriter on the single and in an early BMI registration.
In February 1963 during his last recording session, Elmore James re-recorded the song during a "thrown together session" with New York session musicians for the Fire/Fury/Enjoy record labels. When this version of the song was later released on various budget compilation albums (it was not released as a single), it was titled "Talk to Me Baby". When the original song was included on the 1969 Chess compilation album Whose Muddy Shoes, it was re-titled "Talk to Me Baby" and credited to Willie Dixon. Subsequent appearances of the song are often titled "Talk to Me Baby".
# Jacobi set

In Morse theory, a mathematical discipline, Jacobi sets provide a method of studying the relationship between two or more Morse functions.
For two Morse functions, the Jacobi set is defined as the set of critical points of the restriction of one function to the level sets of the other function.
The Jacobi set can also be defined as the set of points where the gradients of the two functions are parallel.
If both the functions are generic, the Jacobi set is a smoothly embedded 1-manifold.

## Definition

Consider two generic Morse functions $f,g:M\to \mathbb {R}$ defined on a smooth $d$-manifold. Let the restriction of $f$ to the level set $g^{-1}(t)$ for $t\in \mathbb {R}$ a regular value, be called $f_{t}:g^{-1}(t)\to \mathbb {R}$; it is a Morse function. Then the Jacobi set $J$ of $f$ and $g$ is $J=cl{\{x\in M\mid x{\mbox{ is critical point of }}f_{t}\}}$,
Alternatively, the Jacobi set is the collection of points where the gradients of the functions align with each other or one of the gradients vanish (cite?), for some $\lambda \in \mathbb {R}$, $J=\{x\in M\mid \nabla {f(x)}+\lambda \nabla {g(x)}=0{\mbox{ or }}\lambda \nabla {f(x)}+\nabla {g(x)}=0\}.$
Equivalently, the Jacobi set can be described as the collection of critical points of the family of functions $f+\lambda g$, for some $\lambda \in \mathbb {R}$, $J=\{x\in M\mid x{\mbox{ is a critical point of }}f+\lambda g{\mbox{ or }}\lambda f+g\}.$
# André Duchesne (musician)

André Duchesne (born 1949) is a Canadian experimental music guitarist and composer. He was a co-founder of Ambiances Magnétiques, a Canadian musical collective and record label, and formed several experimental music bands, including Conventum, Les 4 Guitaristes de l'Apocalypso-Bar and Locomotive. Duchesne has also released five solo albums.

## Biography

André Duchesne was born in Montreal, Quebec in 1949. As a teenager he learnt acoustic guitar, but was not satisfied with the popular rock music being played at the time. In the mid-1970s he formed an avant-garde folk-rock group called Conventum with René Lussier, Jean Derome, Jean-Pierre Bouchard, Jacques Laurin, Bernard Cormier and poet Alain-Arthur Painchaud. Conventum was described by AllMusic as a mixture of "Quebec's folk roots with absurd poetry and progressive arrangements". They released two albums, À l'Affût d'un Complot in 1977 and Le Bureau Central des Utopies in 1979.
In 1983 Duchesne, Lussier, Derome and Robert M. Lepage formed Ambiances Magnétiques, a musical collective and artist-run record label specialising in avant-garde music. Duchesne released his first solo album, Le Temps des Bombes on the new label in 1984. Then he began writing contrapuntal compositions for a guitar quartet, and formed Les 4 Guitaristes de l'Apocalypso-Bar (The 4 Guitarists of the Apocalypso-Bar) with Lussier, Bouchard and Roger Boudreault to perform the pieces. Les 4 Guitaristes de l'Apocalypso-Bar was a concept band that Duchesne said was from post-apocalypse Canada "inspired by the ghost of Jimi Hendrix". They premiered at the 4th Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville (FIMAV) at Victoriaville, Quebec in October 1986, and continued until 1989, touring Canada, the United States and Europe. They also released two albums in 1987 and 1989.
After the success of Les 4 Guitaristes de l'Apocalypso-Bar, Duchesne returned to FIMAV in 1989 to premier "his most ambitious work ever", L' Ou 'L, a composition that explored different styles of chamber music. In 1991, he formed Locomotive with Claude Fradette and Rémi Leclerc, which also performed at FIMAV in 1991. Locomotive recorded an album of the same name in 1992, which AllMusic called "the pinnacle of André Duchesne's discography".
During the mid- to late-1990s, Duchesne formed several rock bands, but they never recorded. In 1999 he released Réflexions, an album of classical guitar solos, and in 2001, Polaroïde, a free improvisation session for guitar, viola and percussion. Duchesne returned to FIMAV for its 21st edition in 2004 to premier Cordes à danser, a new project of his featuring a string quartet and a "power trio" of guitar, bass and drums.

# Demetrida kokoda

Demetrida kokoda is a species of ground beetle in the Lebiinae subfamily. It was described by Darlington in 1968 and is found in Indonesia and New Guinea.
# Deinopis spinosa

Deinopis spinosa, known generally as the ogrefaced spider or net-casting spider, is a species of ogrefaced spider in the family Deinopidae. It is found in the United States, St. Vincent, and Venezuela. This spider is notable for its use of a net to catch prey. It does this by holding a small web stretched across its legs while it is suspended from a sparse web frame. When prey approaches the spider, it lunges forward and captures the insect in its net. In order to capture prey flying above it the spider uses a backward striking motion. When prey is outside its field of vision this spider appears to use a sensory organ located on its front legs to sense to prey. This sensory organ is known as the metatarsal organ. During the day, the spider is immobile and camouflages itself on its host palm plant. At night, the spider hunts.
