Hela intervjun med Karin Slaughter
Publicerad 21 september 2009
Karin Slaughter, welcome to this interview for Deckarhuset !
You write unusually violent and bloody stories, why?
I don't think of them as unusually violent or bloody. My main focus as a writer is to use violence as a means of talking about greater issues affecting society such as domestic violence, child abuse and rape. I write about these matters in a frank and serious way because I think that readers want an understanding of not just what happens, but what happens next—as in, how does a woman who has suffered horrendous abuse put her life back together? How does a woman who has been raped manage to trust again. I delve deeply into the lives of my characters and their emotional responses to the sorts of crimes they see. The social aspects have always been my focus. I'm not interested in violence for violence's sake.
Most of the really raw violence I have come across in novels are in stories written by men, why do you think that is?
I think that men have an easier time getting away with writing about violence. Mark Billingham and Jeff Deaver seldom get asked about the violence in their novels, but I think that both of these authors are very dark (and exceptionally good at what they do). On the other hand, women like Mo Hayder or Tess Gerritsen or I tend to get a lot of attention when we take on the same issues in the same way. People expect women to be softer, I suppose. The dichotomy is that in most countries, women buy the majority of the books. In the US and UK, for instance, almost 85% of all readers are women. So, we have always been interested in this subject matter. I think it's about time we started not just writing about it, but bringing the perspective of women to the topic of violence.
It seems more and more common that authors use made up places instead of using
cities and places that really exist. Why is that?
I write two different series—one is set in fictional Grant County and the other is in Atlanta, which of course is a real town. I find it much easier to be in Grant because I can make up roads and neighborhoods. I'm always so nervous when I write about Atlanta, even though I've lived here more than half my life, because I'm sure I'll get something wrong and some helpful reader will write a terse letter outlining my mistake. I find it much easier to be in a completely fictional world, as I'm sure most writers do!
Is there a difference in what kind of stories would work great in the US, contrary to what would suit the Asian or European readers?
I think that a good story is universal. I am, of course, grateful that I have extremely diligent translators for my work in various countries, but despite what Hollywood shows the world, there are more things Americans have in common with the rest of the world than things that set us apart. For instance, most Americans live in small towns. We don't all inhabit New York and Los Angeles. Most Europeans live in small towns, too. I also think that as human beings, we all have a natural curiosity about violence. It's in our DNA to note danger, whether we're slowing down to look at a car accident or reading a gripping thriller late at night. Our brains are constantly learning from experiences, and there's no safer way to experience a good thrill than in a well-crafted story.
Are you familiar with any of our Swedish crime authors?
Well, of course Stieg Larsson is well known here as well as Henning Mankell. Liza Marklund is absolutely fabulous and I eagerly await her next work. Unfortunately, it's very difficult to get novels translated into English. The US and UK publish around 250,000 books each every year. There's not a lot of room for other authors. I do enjoy many Scandinavian authors. Karin Fossum is an excellent storyteller and Peter Hoeg wrote one of my favorite stories.
How much of the time to produce a book is research and how much time is actual writing?
Usually it takes a year to complete a book, but I'm often doing research and making notes for two or three books at a time. Since I'm writing a series, there are some things that I think of about my characters that don't quite fit in the current book but will work really well in the next. So, I'm always taking notes and marking articles that I think might be relevant to the next book.
You use really nasty crimes in your stories, why? Is it possibly to create a debate?
I think crime novels have always been at the center of debate because there is a certain immediacy inherent in the genre. Jim Burke wrote a wonderful novel (The Tin Roof Blowdown) about New Orleans after Katrina—it was angry and political and a damn good read; all the things that good crime novels are. He was able to write about a wound in America's psyche that was still raw because he's a good crime writer. He didn't waste time staring at his belly button like so-called "literary" authors do. He sat down and wrote a story.
Not many authors write two "series" parallell, but you do. Is there an agenda behind this, or is it just for fun, to avoiv getting bored with your characters…?
I love writing, and I love taking chances with my work. When I wrote Triptych, it was because I had a story that wouldn't quite work in Grant County. It opens with a prostitute being murdered, and we don't really have those in Heartsdale—well, maybe we do, but no one really talks about them. I needed the anonymity of a big city, and Atlanta, my home, seemed like a good setting. Once I started writing about Will Trent, I couldn't stop. I knew there were more stories to tell about him and so I decided there would be a second series.
Are there real people behind the characters in your stories?
I'm sure I've taken some people from my real life and put them in my books, but I'm never conscious of it. I think that every writer is a product of circumstance, so there is an eventual blending of real life and fiction.
How come you have written the books in the Grant County series in one order, but in hindsight I would have liked to read them in another?
I think that starting with Indelible is a good idea because it gives you a glimpse of things to come, and explains the genesis of Jeffrey and Sara's relationship. Of course, as a reader, I am a stickler and I like to read everything in the order in which the author wrote, so perhaps there are people like me who, when they find a new author, start from the beginning and don't stop until they've caught up.
A couple of your books have different names in different countries. This is nuisance when you travel a lot and buy most of your books at airports all over the world. Not only different covers, which is a hustle, but now different names? Why?
I leave the titles up to the individual countries. Generally the English versions all have the same title, but there have been two instances (with Skin Privilege/Beyond Reach and the upcoming Genesis/Undone) where because of market forces or another author having a book out already by the same title, we've had to change them. I've approved the title changes in both cases. Of course, in non-English countries they tend to change the titles more drastically. Since English is the only language I speak, I think it's best to leave it to the experts!
What are you working on right now?
I've just finished Undone, the next book in Will Trent's world, and I'm working on Broken, which takes us back to Grant County. A lot of things have changed over the course of the series and it's been fun writing about Lena again.
If you were to suggest who we should interview next, who would this be, and what question would you ask this person if you could?
I would suggest Mo Hayder because she's one of my favorite authors. What I would ask her is "Why aren't you writing faster?" I'm dying for a good book from her.
By the way, did you change your last name, or is it a coincidence…
It's a coincidence. I was teased mercilessly as a child, so I think I've earned the right!
/Many thanks for you time and see you at the Gothenburg Book Fair

Information Flow in Wireless Networks: From Matroids to Cell Phones
Adnan Raja University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Coordinated Science Laboratory 1308 West Main Street Ur
Tuesday, 18 January 2011 (All day)
We consider a wireless relay network where many relay nodes help communication between a source and a destination node. The goal is to understand fundamental information-theoretic limits and efficient communication architectures in such networks. Wireless communication network is characterized by the superposition and broadcast nature of signals, in addition to the thermal background noise. Even (apparently) simple-looking networks, are analytically intractable.
Recently, a linear deterministic network was proposed, which captures the signal-interaction in wireless networks while downplaying the role of noise making the problem analytically tractable, but at the same time promising useful insights into the wireless network. Algebraic and combinatorial tools from Matroid theory have been applied to characterize the flow of information in such networks where the flow captures the amount of information flowing through a relay node. In this talk, we attempt to lift the insights from these results back to the wireless network. (A detailed manuscript on this work can be obtained from http://arxiv.org/abs/1012.0416)
Adnan Raja is currently pursuing his PhD in the ECE Department at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He obtained his B.Tech in EE from IIT Bombay in 2006 and MS in ECE from UIUC in 2008. He is currently a visiting student at IISc, Bangalore.

Do you want to design your own websites?
Well I am back after taking a lot of training online and decided to do a few product reviews of softwares and courses I have actually used. The following course which I am a paid member of is created by Clinton Dixson and Mike Hayden to assist people in learning to design their own websites or possibly build sites for clients. Website Supremacy really gives you a jump start and a large reduction of the learning curve to being able to design websites on the Genesis Framework and Dynamik Website Builder. It also goes into much more than what is listed here. Below is a YouTube video by someone I don't know doing a video review of Website Supremacy that you can watch now.
If you have always wanted to build websites I highly recommend checking out Website Supremacy for yourself. Very few online courses deliver this much value for the dollar. These guys are the real thing as far as web design as you will find out going through the training. Jump in now and build yourself a great website with Website Supremacy.

Today's recipe comes to you with apologies to anyone who might be Greek. Or who has been to Greece. Or might just like Greek food. I don't necessarily go for authenticity when I'm doing Surviving Dinner…but I must say that I find this to be a reasonable facsimile. That's a nice way of saying we're not making tzatziki sauce tonight. No matter…it's quick, easy, and my kiddo had three servings of this while my husband had two. I call it a healthy, yummy success!
1. Brown the ground turkey with the seasonings.
2. While meat is cooking, slice your veggies.
3. If desired, heat your pitas in the microwave.
4. Assemble – meat, feta, red onion, and cucumbers topped with a bit of ranch dressing.

Book* 1925 Mentioned in: Stitches in Time: Two Centuries of Surgery in Papua New Guinea by David Watters
Excerpt: Other MOs during the 1920s (Papua)
Harse, the MO in Port Moresby, resigned in March 1929. He was replaced by Giblin, who moved from Samarai. David Herbert Lewis, a graduate of the University of Sydney who undertook his residency at Sydney General Hospital, was recruited for Samarai." He was married and his wife accompanied him. He seems to have been well regarded as his file has the comment, 'appears to be a good type ... Satisfactory references from Drs Winston and Duggan'."
Robert Baynes Allen was the travelling MO in Papua from 1925 to 1928. He had qualified from St Mary's in London (1895) and held various appointments over twelve years in England. In 1907, he travelled to the Cook Islands after contracting influenza. In 1922, he took a position as MO in the phosphate-rich French Pacific Island of Makatea. He was in his mid-fifties and single. While working in Papua, he applied for employment in New Guinea—probably attracted by the higher salaries available. He obtained a posting in Salamaua, where the gold rush was in full swing. His application for further employment in Papua was rejected in 1928—the reason given was 'not suitable for Papua'. He also tried to gain a post as MO at Wau, but tried to falsify his age, which was recorded on his file. He died in 1929 in Salamaua, and at the time of his death, the whereabouts of his next of kin were unknown." NAA A518, G852/1/4.
Recruitment difficulties
The 1920s saw persistent difficulties with recruitment, and the archive files are full of missed deadlines for advertisements, resignations, crises, and appointments made but later declined. Those eventually employed were a 'mixed bag' of people from the highly motivated and competent to the more maverick and unreliable. In 1927, Raymond Victor Rickard, a 1924 graduate of the University of Sydney, underwent appendectomy while in Australia on leave and, although later physically fit to resume service at a time when the administration was actively seeking MOs, his redeployment was declined. However, he went on to become a surgeon. James Fraser Boag was dismissed from the service in 1928 despite shortages—he had only been recruited a few months earlier from the SS Montoro.
At the end of 1930, E. J. Ryan was forced to resign after returning from leave with a child suffering from measles, which he had failed to declare to the quarantine officer before returning to Salamaua. He had put the whole Territory at risk by his disregard for regulations. Robert Baynes Allen (p. 134] was already at his retirement age when he took up the position in Salamaua in 1928. He died in post the following May.6�

Olena Belan, the chief economist at Dragon Capital, said that metal exports in Ukraine shrank by 4 percent in May 2011, to USD 2 billion, but they were compensated for by a sharp increase in exports of agricultural products (corn and vegetable oil) and engineering products.

Imports of natural gas remained at the level of April 2011 (USD 1.1 billion), but there was a sharp increase in imports of oil for processing at domestic refineries on a tolling basis and subsequent exports of petrol to Russia.

125 Civilian Victims in Syria Throughout May, 8 of Them Killed Under Torture
Tuesday June 2nd, 2020 by NADAA SYRIA (opposition site)
A new report by the Syrian Network for Human Rights has documented the civilians killed in May, including those killed while being tortured.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights released a report on Monday confirming the deaths of 125 civilians in Syria throughout the month of May, including eight under torture.
According to the report, the dead included 26 children and six women. Ten civilians died at the hands of the regime, one by Russian forces, seven by protection militias and 107 others by various parties.
The Network reported that eight civilians had died under torture, with the Syrian regime's intelligence forces responsible for seven of the deaths and the YPG responsible for one.
The report documented one massacre during May, explaining that a massacre is defined as an attack that causes the deaths of at least five civilians at once.
The Network concluded its report by calling on the Security Council to refer the Syrian file to international criminal courts and hold all parties responsible, including Russia, which had been documented carrying out war crimes.
The UN was also called upon to carry out more humanitarian aid efforts, including providing food and medical supplies, in areas where the battles have stopped, as well as in the internally displaced camps, and to follow up on the countries that had pledged to make contributions.

Q: Performance issue with encrypted app.config file  i am working on an application where we have decided for a number of reasons that the app.config file should be encrypted.  We are using SectionInformation.ProtectSection with the RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider to encrypt all of the sections.  This part works fine and the application is able to read the encrypted information.  My question with this approach is about performance.  I have run into an issue load testing our application where using the encrpyted config is almost 2x slower under load than with an unencrypted config.  So when my application starts up does the config get unencrypted and cached in memory or not?  Or does it actually go to disk everytime?  I have done alot of searching and have not found a difinitive answer to what exactly is going on here. Thanks for your help!
I'd like to add that this application uses the connectionString property a great deal to access the DB.

A: I did a quick test and it looks like it's loaded into memory.  Below is the code I ran.  After the first WriteLine() I opened the config, manually changed it, and saved the config file. The second WriteLine() printed out the old value and not the new one,so I would conclude that it doesn't open the file back up after it reads it once.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Console.WriteLine(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("TestSettings"));
    Console.ReadLine();
    //Before hitting return I changed the value of TestSettings manually
    Console.WriteLine(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("TestSettings"));
    Console.ReadLine();
}

A: Okay, i found the answer to my own question.  As it turned out the performance hit i was taking with the encrypted config was related to a bug in our solution's framework code.  Basically, there was left over code from something we were attemting to implement which was opening the config from disk everytime we went to access the connection string or any app setting:
var config = ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration()

I changed this code to just use ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[] and everything is working great now.  So what I found out was that ConfigurationManager reads from disk the first time you access a property and also decrypts the file that first time only.  After that it's just reading the values from the decrypted sections in memory.

A: You can try the following:

hard to beat that performance
