Seduction of the Minotaur is an autobiographical novel by the mixed nationality writer Anaïs Nin, the last part of her "Cities of the Interior" sequence.
 It is about a woman named Lillian, and her self-psychoanalysis.
 The setting is taken from Anaïs' diary account of her first trip to Acapulco in 1947, and the novel repeats much of the first part of "The Diary of Anaïs Nin" volume V.
 Since the author was concerned with psychology rather than physical adventure, there is actually less violence in the novel than in the diary account.
 The exception is that the doctor allows himself to be shot because he is loved only as a doctor and never as a man, perhaps patterned after her understanding of Otto Rank's death.
The Italian, or the Confessional of the Black Penitents (1797) is a Gothic novel written by the English author Ann Radcliffe.
 It is the last book Radcliffe published during her lifetime (she would go on to write the novel "Gaston de Blondeville", which was published posthumously in 1826).
 "The Italian" has a dark, mysterious and somber tone, and concerns the themes of love, devotion and persecution by the Holy Inquisition.
 The novel also deals with issues prevalent at the time of the French Revolution, such as religion, aristocracy, and nationality.
 Radcliffe's renowned use of veiled imagery is considered to have reached its height of sophistication and complexity in "The Italian"; concealment and disguise are central motifs of the novel.
 In line with late 18th-century sensibility and its parallel fetishisation of the sublime and the sentimentally pastoral, the heightened emotional states of Radcliffe's characters are often reflected through the pathetic fallacy.
 The novel is noted for its extremely effective antagonist, Father Schedoni.

InPhase Technologies is a technology company developing holographic storage devices and media, based in Longmont, Colorado.
 InPhase was spun out from Bell Labs in 2000 after recruiting two storage industry veterans, Steve Kitrosser (Digital Equipment Corporation, Maxtor, Maxoptics, Quinta, and Seagate) joined as Chairman, and Nelson Diaz (Digital Equipment Corporation, Seagate, StorageTek), with very strong operating experience, in particular high volume magnetic disk drive and tape drive manufacturing with very high quality.
 Their technology promised multiple terabyte storage.
 InPhase concentrated on applied research from 2001 to 2004 to understand what issues had to be addressed and solved in order to be able to deliver high volume storage media and drives with high reliability and high manufacturing yield.
 During this time frame, Stephen Socolof joined the Board of Directors representing New Venture Partners, and in late 2004 pushed the Inphase management team to get a product (a working disk drive and storage media) within one year; a number of the InPhase staff were surprised by this, and wrote a white paper explaining that the staff had tens of decades of experience in bringing digital storage products to market, and that based on where InPhase was at in product development in early 2005, it would require three to five years of additional engineering effort, in particular in manufacturing processes for storage media and drives, before InPhase could commence to sell prototype product to customers.
 This warning was ignored, and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said they would try to get a product out in a year, without telling any other investors.
 Nelson Diaz asked Demetri Lignos for a product plan, and Demetri responded with a rack mounted drive that would allow all the optics and light transmission to lie in a single two dimensional plane, enormously simplifying the manufacturing of such a product; Nelson Diaz rejected this because he had been told that StorageTek, his former employer, had a library that held five and a quarter inch form factor drives (in fact there is no such thing as a specification for a five and a quarter inch disk drive), but Demetri Lignos and his team attempted to develop a disk drive product plan that would fit into a StorageTek library and were NOT able to make all the optics and electronics fit, even thought light was following paths in THREE dimensions to complicate manufacturing, and the total length of the drive was twenty six inches).
 With this as prolog, Demetri Lignos elected to retire from InPhase (after having brought many digital storage products to market from raw technology), and surprise surprise, at the end of 2005, InPhase received additional funding led by New Venture Partners to get a product out within a year, having failed to do so in 2005.
 At the end of 2006, InPhase received additional funding led by New Venture Partners to get a product out within a year, having failed to do sin 2006.
 At the end of 2007, InPhase received additional funding led by New Venture Partners to get a product out within a year, having failed to do so in 2007.
 In April 2008 InPhase was scheduled to have a product launch at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) trade show in Las Vegas, NV, and at the show in the middle of the launch InPhase announced it did not have a viable product to sell to customers.
 In 2008 Stephen Socolof elected to shop InPhase and its extensive patent portfolio, but to no avail, and in 2009-2010 went through a financial restructuring resulting in Steve Socolof leaving the Board and all of the New Venture Partners preferred stock was purchased by Signal Lake.
