![]() ![]() Its full title, “Catechism or Christian Instruction as This Is Conducted in Churches and Schools of the Electoral Palatinate,” provides some clues to this background. Such worldwide acclaim for this document, however, makes it easy to forget that it was originally written to a particular audience in a particular place for a particular reason. Many scholars regard it as the most irenic and catholic expression of the Christian faith to come out of the Protestant Reformation. Within a few months of its appearance, Heinrich Bullinger, leader of the Reformed church in Zurich, was hailing it as “the best catechism ever published.” It was soon translated from German into Latin, Dutch, English, French, Greek, and Hungarian, and today it can be found in every European language and dozens of African and Asian languages as well. ![]() These are the opening lines of the most famous question and answer of probably the most famous catechism of the sixteenth century: the Heidelberg Catechism of 1563.

Set up by the US and the UK in the 1960s, ECHELON was the precursor of today’s global dragnet. Growing up I remember theories about Echelon, a secret surveillance network spying on satellite communications. His video interview was everywhere, for everyone to see. Days later, Edward Snowden stepped forward as the source. The material outlined a massive government-run surveillance program that monitored the communications records of not just criminals or potential terrorists, but law-abiding citizens as well. Both The Guardian and The Washington Post published a series of reports from documents leaked by an anonymous source. ![]() I remember when the American people learned that their government was spying on its own people. ![]() I remember the feeling of hope when Obama was elected sworn in as president.

When he was 8 or 9, he went into the living room, and his grandmother was staring at him. She would often squeeze him so tight he could barely breathe. He grew up in a matriachal house, where the undisputed matriarch was his grandmother: “She was the end of every argument in the family.” The daughter of people who were enslaved, she was tough but loving. The point, he says, is that, “Identity is important.” Things said here have a power that maybe they don’t elsewhere. So he’s found it very energizing at TED, and wanted to start by pointing out that there is a distinct identity here. He’s a lawyer, and the founder of the Equal Justice Initiative. Bryan Stevenson spends most of his time in jails and prisons and on death row. ![]() ![]() Twain used to listen to Sawyer tell stories of his youth, " Sam, he would listen to these pranks of mine with great interest and he'd occasionally take 'em down in his notebook. The fictional character's name may have been derived from a jolly and flamboyant chief named Tom Sawyer, with whom Twain was acquainted in San Francisco, California, while Twain was employed as a reporter at The San Francisco Call. It is set in the 1840s in the Mississippi. While all three uncompleted works were posthumously published, only Tom Sawyer's Conspiracy has a complete plot, as Twain abandoned the other two works after finishing only a few chapters. Sawyer also appears in at least three unfinished Twain works, Huck and Tom Among the Indians, Schoolhouse Hill, and Tom Sawyer's Conspiracy. He appears in three other novels by Twain: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), Tom Sawyer Abroad (1894), and Tom Sawyer, Detective (1896). ![]() ![]() Thomas Sawyer ( / ˈ s ɔː j ər/) is the title character of the Mark Twain novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876). ![]() ![]() In fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone. I still, though, hold on to one single bleak truth: no one is safe, nothing is redeemed. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it, I have now surpassed.

Again, we know because Bateman tells us – in graphic and nauseating detail. So, too, are unspeakable acts of torture, sexual assault and homicidal violence. ![]() The Art of the Deal, Huey Lewis and the News, the original British cast recording of Les Misérables: these are a few of Patrick Bateman’s favourite things.

During the two-month span over which the novel is set, Lexie sees a therapist (reluctantly), reunites with an old friend, withstands another suicide in her Nebraska high school, and learns more about what Ty was thinking. When the book opens, seven weeks after Ty's death, Lexie's grades have slipped, she has broken up with her boyfriend, and she feels like she might be going crazy. Then her younger brother, Ty, commits suicide. Hand (the Unearthly trilogy) shifts to realistic fiction with the story of Lexie, a math star and unashamed nerd whose biggest problems are the aftereffects of her parents' divorce and wondering whether she'll get into MIT. ![]() ![]() ![]() Aquarius, Bayou, and Coral’s lives are hanging in the balance.
