In the News (Thu 31 Dec 09)

  
  Vengeance
Although Vengeance is a telepath and a telekinetic, he is quite different than the normal comic book mentalist.
Realizing that a fight is won first in the mind and only then on the battlefield, Vengeance has a tendency to use big showy maneuvers to inspire fear in his opponents, even when a simple jab would have done the job.
Vengeance is a loner, both out of choice and out of distrust to those who hold "lower" moral standards than he does.

 GameSpy: Tribes: Vengeance Preview
With Tribes: Vengeance, developer Irrational Games is hoping that the use of a modified Unreal engine and slightly reworked gameplay will satisfy long-time fans while being more accessible to new players.
Vengeance should be one of the few FPS games that can be truly labeled a "thinking man's shooter" with plenty of strategy and completely customizable load-outs.
With any luck, the single-player campaign in Vengeance will teach most of the tactics and strategies that are commonly used, although it's still not clear what the structure will be.

 bastardsword: Vengeance
Steven Pinker has written on the subject of vengeance in his book “The Blank Slate”, noting that in a primitive society a reputation for insane vengeance can help maintain the social order, by making people fearful of stealing other people’s property or spouses.
The desire for vengeance may burn bright, but it would be stupid not to restrain it until you’ve got a good chance of pulling off a raid on the cats.
Vengeance has to be personal, and if there's anything less personal than an A-bomb I have a hard time imagining it.

And Vengeance is quite a ride, as Lew tries to make sense of two different cases, from two very different sides of the tracks.
First, he's hired by a frantic, divorced truck-stop waitress named Beryl Tree from Brisbane, Kansas, who's worried that her teenage daughter may have run away to Sarasota to be with her abusive father (Beryl's ex, a really nasty piece of work).
Not that Vengeance relies too heavily on the supporting cast, or even on the detective's love life.

 SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Is vengeance lawful?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
But vengeance belongs to God, for it is written (Deuteronomy 32:35, Romans 12:19): "Revenge to Me, and I will repay." Therefore all vengeance is unlawful.
But we are to look to God for vengeance on His enemies: for it is written (Luke 18:7): "Will not God revenge His elect who cry to Him day and night?" as if to say: "He will indeed." Therefore vengeance is not essentially evil and unlawful.
For if his intention is directed chiefly to the evil of the person on whom he takes vengeance and rests there, then his vengeance is altogether unlawful: because to take pleasure in another's evil belongs to hatred, which is contrary to the charity whereby we are bound to love all men.

A riveting tale that later grew to be known throughout the Mid-Atlantic area as The Vengeance Legend.
Many will tell you it is a tall tale, the speaker partaking too much of the rum, but The Vengeance Legend was very real to many people...including the seven strong men who crewed her.
The crew of Vengeance found breathtaking adventure during the first four months of their existence, trying to rid the waters of the deadly pirates who were the scourge of all who dared to venture offshore.

 Die Hard: With a Vengeance (1995)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
With Die Hard 3, John McTiernan is back at the helm, as he was for Die Hard (1988), and the result is once again a more serious action film (containing some comic relief, of course) with very taut internal logic.
In fact, Die Hard: With a Vengeance is so well constructed, so well acted and so well directed that I like it just as much, if not better, than Die Hard.
But the subtexts in Die Hard: With a Vengeance may be even more minor focuses than in the previous two films.

The Vengeance 135 was more subdued in toggle and riser response and tamer in its flight characteristics.

 Vengeance by Charley Reese
I tell you these anecdotes to point out something that apparently a great many American government officials haven't quite grasped: When we operate in an Arab country, especially Iraq, we are operating in a culture that places a very high value on vengeance and honor.
The significance is that when we kill an Iraqi, if the death is perceived by his family as unjust, then the dead man's extended family assumes an unavoidable obligation to avenge it.
The object of the vengeance need not be the particular person who committed the original act.

In 1997 she was involved in maneouvres as an attack carrier with Argentina Naval Aviation Super Etendards attack planes, ANA Sea Kings and ANA pilots as part of the widening collaboration between Argentina and Brazil.

 McKillip Vengeance   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Neither of them have vengeance as a major theme, although Brand began by wanting to kill the mage he thought had enchanted him, but discovers that it was his father, the ruler of Saphier, who did it.
Sybel renounces vengeance before it is completed, because she sees that dwelling on it would destroy her.
To put all this another way, the examination of vengeance is central to some of McKillip's work, whereas I would argue that, even in the Demon Princes books, it is not central to Vance's work.

 Tribes: Vengeance Updated Q&A - Animating Tribes - PC News at GameSpot   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Now Irrational Games is readying Tribes: Vengeance, the third game in the franchise and from what we've seen so far, it looks to be every bit as fast-paced and engaging as its predecessors.
But Irrational is doing far more than simply introducing a new graphics engine (the game uses the latest Unreal engine technology); in order to make Tribes more appealing to mainstream gamers, Irrational is also incorporating a single-player campaign, which is a first for the series.
The previous two Tribes games were multiplayer-only affairs, but Tribes: Vengeance promises to correct that with what should hopefully be an intriguing and involving story.

However, among Sierra's Earthsiege, Starsiege, and Tribes games, the series has several centuries of history that involve powerful warring factions and planetary conquest, and Tribes: Vengeance's developers want to bring that history to life in the new game.
That's why he and his team are working on a single-player story whose structure will resemble that of Neal Stephenson's sci-fi novel Cryptonomicon, a novel that switched back and forth between two different characters in two different time periods, and then gradually brought the stories together.
In Tribes: Vengeance, the soldier inside will be just as important as the armor he's wearing.

 IGN: Batman Vengeance Review
Ubi Soft's Batman Vengeance is a remarkably accurate re-creation of the animated TV series in a videogame in both visuals and presentation, offering a next generation feel, and replete with familiar gameplay elements.
More importantly, the game, such as Batman Vengeance, is scripted and delivered with such an eye for detail that you, the player, actually feels as if you're experiencing something else.
The Joker is the first villain to appear, and it is he who sets up Batman in a mystery involving an innocent woman who is nearly killed by an explosive bomb, and her kidnapped son, who is being ransomed for $5 million.

I purchased a Vengeance 120 when they first came out (serial # 69) that was replaced by PD after about 80 jumps on it because of the ‘funny’ opening that where a little unpredictable.
I now have about 500 jumps on the 120 and 80 on the 107 that I sold this year as my jumping habits are not steady enough (winter) to ride this kind of canopy.
The flight of the vengeance is superb to the sabre, in both turbulent and smooth skies.

 The Biblical Prohibition of Vengeance   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
If it is sinful for me to take vengeance, it is sinful for me to hire someone to take vengeance for me (a mafia hit-man), and it is sinful for me to "vote" for someone to take vengeance for me.
Even if the State were a completely voluntary association, which did not finance its activities by initiating force or threats of force against others in order to confiscate their wealth, its fundamental purpose -- taking vengeance -- is sinful and prohibited to all human beings.
