Written Reviews (in order of highest to lowest review scores)
The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor is receiving rave reviews on PS4 and Xbox One including the following written reviews:
The Drastik Measure – 9.9 out of 10 (PC expansion)
"Amazing blend of rhythm and RPG mechanics, good strategical depth in RPG choices with regards to equipment/skills, varied and impressive soundtrack–generally no duds, appropriate song sequencing, vibrant and over-the-top visuals paired with quirky dancing animation, packed with the Puubas' unique brand of humour everywhere–item descriptions, cutscenes, etc, various difficulty settings make it simultaneously newbie-friendly and catering to rhythm veterans, daily challenges and high score leaderboards add a LOT of replayability, wide support for controllers, guitar controllers, dance pads and HIGHLY polished."
PlayStation Nation – 9.5 out of 10
"While playing Metronomicon I didn't want to put it down until my hands hurt, and sometimes persisted in spite of the fatigue. This is just a fantastically crafted game. The systems all work great together and the soundtrack contains more earworms than should be legally allowed in a game."
Sick Critic – 9.5 out of 10
"Playing this game was a magnificent treat, both for the hands and ears. Puuba has tried to mix and match all these different genres for a while now, and they've finally hit every single note perfectly. The music was diverse, the gameplay was engaging and free-flowing, and it's one of the best games of the year. Just get it right now. An amazing audible experience that manages to keep its stride, to become a Game of The Year Contender, and the best rhythm-action game to come out in years."
Marooner's Rock – 9.4 out of 10
"The soundtrack is incredible, as before. There are multiple songs that will absolutely get stuck in your head. Addictive gameplay, killer soundtrack and adds improvements over an already great game."
Comics & Gaming Magazine – 9 out of 10
"If you're looking to unlock your inner D&D dance machine, look no further than The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor. If you're feeling really ambitious, you can whip out your Rockband 4 guitars. You know, really get immersed in the whole party style. Just be prepared for some humbling gameplay and to come away singing the songs for days on end."
Desconsolados – 9 out of 10 (Spanish)
"As if it has not been noticed in the analysis, The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor has enchanted me. The musical selection is enormous, varied and of quality, while the mechanics are simply great."
Gaming Trend – 9 out of 10
"The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor is one of the most infectious rhythm games this year. Its perfect blend of music gameplay and RPG mechanics is an ambitious one that sticks the landing, and the addictive soundtrack will have your toe tapping long after you turned it off. Just stay away from the dancing bears if you're not shaking it like a Polaroid."
Honest Gaming Reviews – 9 out of 10
"Any rhythm game is only as good as the soundtrack of it. This is where Metronomicon really shines. There are 50 tracks in total in the base game (more to come via DLC packs) and even after 7 days straight of playing the game, I still haven't become bored with the music. There hasn't been one single time where I've thought 'Oh no , not this bloody song again'. There are a few genres included, electronica, indie, synthwave and I love them all. In conclusion, Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor was an absolute joy to play and I had huge amounts of fun with it. It's a title that I will come back to again and again in pursuit of higher scores and maybe sometimes just to chill out and listen to the tunes."
Life is Xbox – 85 out of 100
"Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor is an addictive and really fun game that uses the best from the roleplaying and rhythm genre mix. It has a great list of songs, depth and unique gameplay, replay value and more! Great soundtrack, fun gameplay with depth, replay value and really fun local co-op."
Gaming Age – 83 out of 100 (B+)
"The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor went from being a game that wasn't on my radar, to being one of the more engrossing blends of video game mechanics I've played all year long. The stellar soundtrack combined with a solid base of RPG trappings makes for a really enjoyable time, and something that I doubt many developers could stick the landing on as well as Akupara Games and PUUBA have done here."
Use A Potion – 8.3 out of 10
"Still, no matter how enjoyable and on point its RPG elements might be, a rhythm game is nothing without a banging soundtrack to go with it. Thankfully, Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor has a great selection of tunes. Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor's blend of RPG action and rhythm based gameplay is something I could never have imagined working, but now that I've actually played it I simply can't get enough. It mixes up the two genres in such a creative and imaginative way, in turn providing an experience that'll provide hours upon hours of zany, adventuring fun. Whether you're a fan of RPGs or a fan of busting some moves to a rhythm game, Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor is definitely worth checking out."
Comicbook.com – 4 out of 5
"The song selections are very good, with some not-so-typical tracks from talented artists. It successfully merges two great tastes together into one inventive experience that players won't get enough of. It's a good time with solid controls, abundant multiplayer options (and leaderboards) and a fun little presentation. When it comes to delivering an entertaining music experience, Metronomicon kills it."
Common Sense Media – 4 out of 5
"Rhythm-based adventure that's got a quirky beat. Matching character strengths to enemy weaknesses, trying out new skills and spells, and mixing up the party members is like tuning an instrument, and when it all comes together, it's music to the player's ears."
GamesBeat (Venture Beat) – 80 out of 100
"The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor is a lot of fun if you're into rhythm games. I don't think any other game quite like it is out there."
GameSpace – 8 out of 10
"Metronomicon Slay the Dance Floor is a ton of fun and I hope to see more rhythm RPGs in the future. The soundtrack is also top notch and I often had various songs stuck in my head long after I stopped playing. For anyone who likes RPGs and Rhythm games, this is one you won't want to pass up."
GameZone – 8 out of 10
"I'm not sure what I was expecting when I first booted up Metronomicon, but what I got was a pleasant surprise. The soundtrack is comprised of a lot of indie artists, and it's pretty great! If you're a fan of rhythm games and want to add a little bit of RPG quirk to your correctly-timed button presses, then you can't go wrong with Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor."
Saving Content – 4 out of 5
"The soundtrack itself has a lot of various songs from slower paced songs to fast beats of electronic or techno. It was easy to get into the music and just enjoy the beats. My 3 year old daughter watched me play and even had a blast just jumping around to the music. Some nice solid selections. The Metronomicon is a solid musical experience with a cool twist. It offers a story mode, challenge modes, and endless mode and is just a fun light-hearted rhythm game that can be fun for people of all ages. Highly recommended, and if the music genre is to a player's preference, then quest onward and tap to the beat!"
Windows Central – 4 out of 5
"A music game with RPG mechanics is something you don't see every day. Fighting monsters to electronic indie songs is quite enjoyable. Lots of modes to keep the party going, plus local co-op!"
4Players.de – 7.5 out of 10 (German)
"The mix of rhythm game and fantasy roleplaying works suprisingly well – mainly thanks to the fact that the basic mechanics don't stray too much from the Amplitude formula. So in the end it boils down to your musical tolerance. If you don't mind electronic and and a wide range of indie music, you'll get a lot of fun out of this one."
Xbox Gamer Reviews – 7.3 out of 10
"Metronomicon may not feature any of the big names in the music industry, but the songs themselves will certainly leave a lasting impression. The songs are catchy as hell. The Metronomicon has combined two opposing genres with positive effects. The role playing elements fused with rhythmic gameplay creates a fun adventure, with some wacky outlandish characters. The levelling system allows you to progress further. Finally the songs will stick in your head."
Bonus Stage – 7 out of 10
"With plenty of catchy tracks, a fantastic co-op mode and a brilliant coming together of two diametrically opposed genres, Puuba Games' The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor delivers one of the more compelling rhythm games released for quite some time. Mechanically and conceptually it's as good as anything out there. It's quite unlike anything else out there, and with very few rhythm games on the market right now, The Metrnomicon: Slay the Dance Floor delivers a much welcome entry into an increasingly niche genre."
Digitally Downloaded – 7 out of 10
"Taken exclusively as a rhythm game, there is so much to appreciate about Metronomicon. It does bring some new tricks to a genre that often feels quite stale for ideas, and has a truly killer soundtrack."
Gamers Heroes – 7 out of 10
"I can safely attest that it's quite different from the typical rhythm games we have come to expect. This game has sword-and-sorcery RPG elements, a fun story, good voice-acting, a fantastic soundtrack – which is a healthy mixture of electronic, pop, techno-pop – and quirky aesthetics. And if that wasn't enough, the gameplay is actually quite deeper than it appears."
The Xbox Hub – 7 out of 10
"Decent Indie artist selection, Guitar Hero Vibe, song variety, RPG elements blend well, replayability and plenty of game modes."
Game Tyrant
"The game is a lot of fun and easily addictive! From the moment I started playing it, I caught myself constantly promising "one more song," but it was never just one more song! I thoroughly enjoyed this mix of genre! Truly an innovative title worth the hours of game play I can guarantee any music gamer will put in to it!"
"The Metronomicon: Slay the Dance Floor has grabbed me all over again, especially with well-designed PlayStation trophies that keeps the next one tantalizing close to unlocking. Anyone that enjoys a good rhythm game set to electronic music would be only hurting themselves if they don't open up The Metronomicon now."

Egypt: "Trade union rights are our way to social justice" – new leaflet
To download this article as a leaflet click here
Workers from Alexandria Containers Company and trade unionists protest over the jail sentences handed down to 5 of their colleagues for leading a strike, September 2012 – picture via revsoc.me
Since the revolution of 2011 nearly 1000 independent trade unions have been created in Egypt. Under the old regime, the sole legal trade union was the Egyptian Trade Union Federation (ETUF), which was controlled by the state. The independent unions have been at the heart of workers' struggles to realise the revolution's demands of 'bread, freedom and social justice'. Now independent trade unionists are facing a new wave of attacks from the Muslim Brotherhood government. Hundreds of activists have been sacked and victimised, and dozens hauled through the courts. In this article Egyptian workers and activists explain why they are fighting for a law on trade union freedoms and what is wrong with the draft labour law proposed by the Egyptian government.
What's wrong with the Brotherhood's law?
"A law on trade union freedoms covers everyone's rights to organise: workers, farmers, professionals, fishermen, service workers, homeworkers, temporary and seasonal workers. But the Brotherhood's law bans our civilian colleagues in the police and army from their right to form unions to defend their rights, although they are among the people who need unions the most.
The Brotherhood's draft law proposes trade union structures in the form of a pyramid (workplace union committees – general unions – general federation). All authority is concentrated in the general federation, which the government or security forces can put under pressure, while the workplace union committees have no powers.
We want unions, not the federation to have full rights to negotiate and take the decision to strike. Workers themselves are the decision-makers. They must be able to elect their leaders freely and exercise authority over them.
In the Brotherhood's draft law workers who leave the ETUF affiliated general unions will lose their deposits in their retirement funds. In the draft law the employer can ban workers from trade union activities and from organising elections (clause 30) because trade union activities and elections are only permitted "if they do not affect the course of work in the institution".
Clause 39 imposes a fine of 10,000 Egyptian pounds on trade unionists for 'spreading false information'. By contrast employers who sack workers for trade union activity only have to pay a 1000 pound fine. The law allows the Ministry of Labour to intervene in trade union affairs. We want to reduce the Ministry's role to the minimum, because we know that the Ministry always used to interfere in union elections by forging the results in favour of the people the government and the security forces wanted to get elected."

Striking workers victimised
Five workers for the Alexandria Containers Company were sacked from their jobs and sentenced to 3 years in prison in September 2012 after leading a strike against corruption in the company. Over 400 workers in 24 different workplaces have been sacked for their trade union activities over the past year and a half. These include more than 50 workers in the General Tax Authority and the Sales Tax Authority who were sacked for blowing the whistle on corruption. In another example of mass sackings, 1560 workers from the state petroleum company Petrojet were sacked during the revolution and the company has refused to take them back.

'The courts are trying to intimidate workers'
We have seen a large increase in police attacks on striking workers in recent months. I am often called to represent workers who are being interrogated by the prosecutors following their arrest during strikes and protests. The right to strike is recognised in Egyptian law, so the prosecutors will use charges of criminal damage, assault or 'aggression against the right to work' against striking workers.
We have seen cases recently where courts have handed down prison sentences against workers in absentia. The aim is clearly to intimidate and frighten workers into dropping their demands. We are trying to build a strong movement in solidarity with workers who are arrested and victimised.

"We are standing up for ordinary citizens"
Muhammad Hardan – Union of Water Company Workers
We set up our independent union after the revolution. We collected signatures from colleagues who wanted to join and began to get organised. But management fought back and threw a lot of false accusations against us. They accused us of causing riots and criminal damage. Then management tried to buy us off, they failed because we were united. After the revolution, a new minister of water was appointed and he was someone from the old regime. The first thing he thought of was raising the price of water for people. The independent union was against this completely. We are standing with ordinary citizens and fighting for their right to clean drinking water in their homes. Our campaign was successful and the minister withdrew the price rises.
"Workers in our industry have nothing"
Ibrahim – Building Workers Union
Workers in our sector have nothing – no social insurance, medical care or employment rights like government employees, for example. Many building workers used to travel abroad to work and there was a scam by companies which would take money equivalent to half a years' salary from workers in order to help them travel, then they would be working essentially as slaves until they repaid the debt. Workers who had an accident at work would be left penniless and their children reduced to begging. Before the revolution a group of us asked the government for permission to set up a social fund for building workers but this was refused. Then came the revolution and a lot of us were involved. We organised an independent union, but the battle still goes, because we do not yet have a law on trade union freedoms.

It started in a field outside Harmony Church, Missouri – about 100 miles from Kansas City. A teenager named Dale, nervous, insecure, from a poor family, wondering how he was going to make something of himself. Then, one day, a speaker from the Chautauqua Institute comes to town. The speaker tells his own rags to riches story based on, as he argues, the art of public speaking. Young Dale finds his way to college, enters every speaking or debating competition he can lay his hands on, starts winning awards. He becomes convinced this art, of persuasion, is the key to success in this life.
That was the moment things began to change, argues Susan Cain in a fascinating book I started this week called, "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a Word that Can't Stop Talking." She says that this young man, Dale, who eventually tweaked the spelling of his birth name and went by Dale Carnegie, after the famous industrialist Andrew Carnegie, appeared at the perfect time. Dale finished college in 1908, when Henry Ford is selling model-T's, and JC Penny, Sears and Roebuck, and Woolworth's had become household names. Carnegie got into sales himself, then sets up shop at the 125th street YMCA in New York City as a public-speaking teacher.
I felt a bit ill as I pedaled the bike at the Lakewood Y, reading, thinking about that statement – "Every American was to become a performing self." I thought about watching the Emmy's last Sunday night, about the unbelievable amounts of time we spend thinking, covering, reading about people who may be really talented artists, or may simply be in that ever-growing number of people who are famous simply because they are famous. While Entertainment Tonight and US Weekly are easy targets, I wonder how that trickles down to us, to both our petty insecurities and the ways we share the gifts God has given us? How do we feel like we must present ourselves to others? To certain groups we want to seem smart, to others, the life of the party. To others we want to seem responsible, to others that we have it all together, even if, especially if, right under the surface, it feels like everything is on the verge of falling apart. How do folks like us get sucked into thinking so much about how we are seen, and miss the world for it?
I think that dynamic is what today's text is about. The beginning is soaked in hyperbole. The rich man dressed in finery feasted, feasted sumptuously, not just some days but every day. Now begins the contrast, the poor man lying outside of the security booth in the rich man's gated community, covered, COVERED, with sores, longing to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man's table, a table he likely hasn't seen and won't ever see. The verb 'to eat', 'to satisfy his hunger,' chortazo, is commonly used for the feeding of animals rather than humans.2 Lazarus is a form of the Jewish name Eleazar, which means "God helps." But no one does. Dogs lick sores. They are different in every way possible, yet they both die. Lazarus heads up to hang with Abraham, which isn't a big deal until the next verse, when we are surprised to learn where the rich man goes. Hades? Hold on a minute. The roles have been reversed.
The rich guy, true to stereotype, calls out to Abraham, and asks him to send Lazarus to help cool him off a bit. This scene feels terribly sad to me. He still treats the poor guy who sat at his gate as someone who exists to meet his needs. Abraham lays out the new situation. Child, which feels to me said out of both love and pity, remember? Do you remember? In your lifetime you had it pretty good. The rich man wasn't necessarily a bad guy, but he had his time. Lazarus, remember Lazarus?, he had it much worse. But now he is comforted, and you are in agony. Besides all this, in addition to the things that have changed, they have been changed forever, for eternity. A great chasm has been fixed, no matter how nicely you ask.
My father was searching through an old storage closet in Montreat some years back and came across a recording. It was a tape from Anderson Auditorium in Montreat, from a weekend late in August, 1965. The speaker, one Martin Luther King, Jr., begins his speech at a church retreat by apologizing for being late. The day he had been scheduled he was in Watts, Los Angeles, meeting with government officials, on the streets, trying to quell the riots there. In this speech, King challenges the church on issues of race, pushing them to be more than clear on their stands on segregation. Then, he moves into the connection with issues of poverty. He takes some time, and points the assembly to our text.
If King is right, this may not be, ultimately, a text about poverty, about our wealth, or about the proper allocation of resources. This is a text about vision. I wonder if we are so caught up being our 'performing selves,' – and I am not even sure we realize we are performing most of the time. I fear that we, all of us, get caught up in what others think, in trying to be some ideal version of ourselves, some image we feel we have to project to the world, that this tendency leads to the blindness the rich man has in this text. The rich man and his stuff and his table and his feasting, his working and his living, these things churn and churn and we feel so overwhelmed and it can lead to a kind of paralysis. Blindness. Completely missing the deep needs right in front of us, a world filled with joy and beauty and with pain, and world that needs the gifts God has given you.
This is where we get at the heart of stewardship season which, as you know from Daniel, begins today. I wonder what we could do if, instead of the performing that leads to blindness, what would it be like if we lived, truly lived, as if we believed that everything we had comes as a gift from God. That we are here to share those gifts, to give them away in the serve of God and each other? And that we could, by doing things investing in church, in this church that I believe with all my heart IS, by God's grace, changing things in our neighborhoods and downtown and all over the world. What if we prayed that God would free us to be community? True community, where we could quit performing, just for a little while, and love each other, and grieve together, and praise God with laughter. And be free.
In that same speech in Montreat, King continues: "I submit this is the challenge facing the church, to be as concerned as our Christ about the least of these, our brothers and sisters. And we must do it because in the final analysis we are all to live together, rich and poor, lettered and unlettered, tutored and untutored. Somehow we are tied in a single garment of destiny, caught in an inescapable network of mutuality." "And for some strange reason," King says to us, "I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be, and you can never be what you ought to be until I am what I ought to be. This is the way God made the world…we must all learn to live together as brothers [and sisters] or we will all perish as fools."
So, past poverty, past vision, it's about community, and the key to how community is formed. How we are called to be free, to be authentic with each other, fed by the bread of life. These are hard days, to be sure. But Lazarus is in front of us, at the gates, every day. And we still have the chance to change things, if only we are willing to see.

"No to Dictatorship, No to Patriarchy": Women's Activism in Myanmar
ByJessica Nixon
The current military dictatorship that ousted State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi, President Win Mying, and other members of the National League for Democracy (NLD) has had devastating effects on civilians collectively across the country. With more than 700 killed, thousands unlawfully arrested, and countless protesters injured, the coup not only threatens democracy and basic human rights, it also disproportionately impacts women and gender minorities. A military with a lengthy history of gender-based violence and patriarchal oppression coupled with no measures of accountability makes these protests intrinsically linked to women's rights. Although much of Western media has failed to highlight women's unique involvement in the protests, women have been active on the frontlines every day since February 1st (the date of the coup), refusing to allow history to repeat itself.
Militarism and Gender-Based Violence in Myanmar
The history of military rule in Myanmar is marked with authoritarianism, hypermasculinity, sexual violence, and political repression. During the military junta's control in Myanmar from 1962 to 2011, women were denied participation in any form of decision making, excluded from positions of power, and economically marginalized. The failure to invest in economic and social infrastructure during the 50-year junta regime made it challenging for women in the rural areas, those who were part of ethnic minority groups or those living in poverty. In an article titled "Myanmar's Coup is Devastating for Women" in Foreign Policy, author Michelle Onello asserts that military spending on education and healthcare allocated for "1 to 3 percent of gross domestic product for that period, compared to 20 to 30 percent devoted to the military." This negatively impacted maternal and infant mortality rates.
The political, economic and social decisions made during military rule perpetuated a culture of gender inequality in Myanmar, not only preventing women's inclusive participation in society, but it also increased rates of physical and sexual violence. In a 2018 report by the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Myanmar, it discovered, "a direct nexus between the lack of gender equality more generally within the country and within ethnic communities, and the prevalence of sexual and gender-based violence." Further, the study revealed that women and girls from ethnic minority communities were disproportionately victimized.
The Myanmar military has been a key perpetrator of sexual violence against women in ethnic minority communities, with clear and credible reports of military officials using sexual violence to intimidate civilians on a regular basis. Cynthia Enloe has written extensively about the linkages between militarization and gender-based violence. She argues that the patriarchy is deeply rooted in militarism, making women's oppression imminent in militant ideology. The Myanmar military is no exception, with United Nations experts asserting that in northern regions and ethnic states of Myanmar where large military presence exists, women and girls are especially vulnerable to sexual violence from security officials. Hyper-masculine militarism coupled with absence of structural accountability measures makes this coup undeniably devastating for women in Myanmar.
Women's Activism
The Women's League of Burma estimates that up to 60 percent of those protesting are women. Further, women also account for 40 percent of those arrested. Many women have already been subjected to violence during clashes with police, including 3 young women killed by police on March 3rd. Additionally, images from protests show police forcefully pushing women and pulling their clothes off. Despite the violence they ensue, women and organisations fighting for gender equality have been critical in maintaining the momentum of the protests by taking on crucial roles. Although many of the hyper visible women in the protests are upper and middle class, Foreign Policy asserts, "[…] rural female activists, drag queens, ethnic minority women in traditional clothing, female garment workers, Rohingya women, LGBTI community members, and gender minorities from other marginalized groups have also joined the anti-coup movement."
Women from all backgrounds are present on the frontlines; cleaning up debris from previous protests, doctors volunteering as medics, lawyers offering legal advice to protesters, bankers giving financial advice, aided with activist strategies such as boycotting services to halt military income, handing out safety gear, and offering safe spaces to those fleeing military and police aggression. Jessie Lau from Foreign Policy notes the clever ways women are "weaponizing gender to fight both the military and the patriarchy," by using traditional gender norms and taboos to rebel against the misogynistic military coup.
After a long day of protesting, some women return to their homes and bang pots and pans together which mirrors a "domestic practice traditionally used to drive out evil spirits," that has moulded into an anti-coup action. In another example, women began to hang up htaimein (women's undergarments and sarongs). One young activist interviewed by Aljazeera explains how these garments are perceived as, "unclean" and that, "coming into contact or walking under these is believed to bring bad luck, reducing one's hpone – masculine superiority – in Buddhist belief." Many protesting men have even started to wear traditional women's clothing to signify their support for women's rights. This form of protest has prevented military and police officials from targeting certain areas due their patriarchal views about women's bodies as being dirty or impure. Similarly, some women have drenched sheets in red paint to emulate menstrual blood, draping them over photos of powerful military officials. One unidentified protester interviewed by Aljazeera stated that the acts of protest mentioned above have allowed women to reclaim, "their status against the same patriarchal attitudes that perceive them as lesser in society."
As expected, military and police forces have responded to the increase in women's participation and visibility in the anti-coup movement by purposefully targeting women for sexual assault. Historically, the Myanmar military has used sexual violence against Rohingya women and women from other marginalized backgrounds, and it is feared by many that these practices will become more prevalent as the protests continue.
There is a strong feminist consciousness among women from various backgrounds in Myanmar, highlighting how critical women's liberation and intersectional feminism is to democracy. The ways in which women have reclaimed potentially harmful gender norms to fight back against the patriarchy and the coup signifies the strength that movements can have when they are unified and seek to liberate those most marginalized.

Very much like my last question. The rules say you are allowed to lie about your dice results, and the amount that you wager in the roll.
Does this mean the act of lying about your dice roll is simply "accepting a lower results". How do you effectively hide wagered dice?
Sorry for all the questions, my friends are clamoring to give this game a try. I plan on running a demo of it in a few days.
I don't recall what it said about wagered dice, please reference a page number so that I can look this over.
In this example I choose to roll less dice, and probably even choose to lose privilege to make a point about my character's 'apparent social weakness'. In this case, I don't roll my entire potential pool of dice and choose to only reveal 4 dice, I simply decide to roll less dice, although it could be done that way too.
Anyways, imaginary example aside, it depends how you and your group wish to run/play the game. I think what John was getting at is that if you want to "cheat" that way as a player, you have his permission (not that you needed it as long as your Narrator is ok with it ).

Q: Linq to objects and lambda expression There are classes Client and Commande :
public class Client {
    public int Identifiant { get; set; }
    public string Nom { get; set; }
    public int Age { get; set; }
}

public class Commande
{
    public int Identifiant {get; set;}
    public int IdentifiantClient {get;set;}
    public decimal Prix {get;set;}
}

Here are some lists based on these classes :
List<Client> listeClients = new List<Client>
{   new Client{Identifiant=1,Nom="Nicolas",Age=30},
    new Client{ Identifiant = 2, Nom = "Jérémie", Age = 20},
    new Client{ Identifiant=3, Nom="Delphine", Age=30},
    new Client{Identifiant = 4, Nom = "Bob", Age = 10}
};

List<Commande> listeCommandes = new List <Commande>
{
    new Commande{Identifiant=1, IdentifiantClient=1, Prix = 150.05M},
    new Commande{Identifiant=2, IdentifiantClient= 2, Prix= 30M},
    new Commande{Identifiant= 3, IdentifiantClient= 1, Prix= 99.99M},
    new Commande{Identifiant= 4, IdentifiantClient= 1, Prix= 100M},
    new Commande{Identifiant= 5, IdentifiantClient = 3, Prix = 80M},
    new Commande{Identifiant = 6, IdentifiantClient = 3,Prix = 10M}
};

Now there is this Linq expression :
var liste = from commande in listeCommandes
            join
            client in listeClients on commande.IdentifiantClient equals client.Identifiant
            group commande by new {commande.IdentifiantClient, client.Nom}
            into commandesGroupees
            let total = commandesGroupees.Sum(c => c.Prix)
            where total > 50
            orderby total
            select new {
                commandesGroupees.Key.IdentifiantClient,
                commandesGroupees.Key.Nom,
                NombreDeCommandes = commandesGroupees.Count(),
                PrixTotal = total
            };

foreach(var element in liste)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Le client {0} ({1}) a réalisé {2} commande(s) pour un total de {3}", element.Nom, element.IdentifiantClient, element.NombreDeCommandes, element.PrixTotal);
}

In the Linq expression there is this expression : let total = commandesGroupees.Sum(c => c.Prix) . How is it possible that the parameter c represents an instanciation of the Command class ? because there is the calling of the property Prix !

A: Let's chunk it in smaller bits to make it simpler
from commande in listeCommandes

commande is of type Commande
group commande by new { commande.IdentifiantClient, client.Nom }

This is probably the bit confusing you, this still creates an IEnumerable<Commande> not an IEnumerable<anonymous<identifiantclient,nom>>, the new is what you want to group by, not what you want the grouped items to be, at this point you're creating an IGrouping that has IdentifiantClient and Nom as key but has an IEnumerable has an element
into commandesGroupees

Gives a name to the IGrouping we previously created
let total = commandesGroupees.Sum(c => c.Prix)

An IGrouping<TKey,TValue> is an IEnumerable<TValue> so as we've seen earlier each of the groups (grouped by idenfiantClient and Nom) hold a sequence of commands, since we're doing a linq query on it (sum) we're not concerned about the key but about the IEnumerable that is exposed (the IEnumerable<Command>).
This is why the sum works on Command and those have a Prix property.

A: Let's analyse this query expression bit by bit.
from commande in listeCommandes

It is clear that if listeCommandes is a List<Commande>, commande should be of type Commande. Right?
join
client in listeClients on commande.IdentifiantClient equals client.Identifiant

This join joins the client list to the query. Now we have a client variable of type Client. But this doesn't have much to do with commande, which is still of type Commande.
group commande by new {commande.IdentifiantClient, client.Nom}
into commandesGroupees

This is where it gets interesting. When you group commande, a bunch of IGrouping<AnonymousClass, Commande> are created. This is exactly the commandesGroupees here.
So what happens if you call Sum on a IGrouping<AnonymousClass, Commande>? Remember that Sum is an extension method on IEnumerable<T>, and IGrouping<AnonymousClass, Commande> implements IEnumerable<Commandes>. This means that you are basically calling Sum on a IEnumerable<Commandes>, which expects a Function<Commande, decimal>.

So Tell Us About The Christmas Album, "The Gifts of Midwinter"
We've told you that it's now available, and you've seen (and hopefully heard samples of) the songs that are on The Gifts of Midwinter, the new CD by Ken and Lisa Theriot. But other than that you may not know much about it. So we thought publishing the liner notes as a blog post would be a great way to tell everyone about it. Lisa did a great job summarizing the project, as well as printing the lyrics and her translations of the non-English songs. If you'd like to download that as a separate document, you can do that by clicking here: The Gifts of Midwinter Liner Notes.
Here is Part 1. We're going to serialize this due to its length.
Since then we have set out to find songs you don't hear on EVERY Christmas album, though we couldn't resist putting our stamp on a couple of personal favorites. So here they are, from the sacred to the secular, from medieval to modern. Good Yule and Merry Christmas.
Note: all italicized editor's notes are by me, Lisa Theriot. All translations are my own (I have trust issues!).
I once heard a fighter say that he had been really inspired before a battle because the army was singing together in Latin. Horribly, they were singing this song, the chorus of which translates as "Rejoice, for Christ is born of the Virgin Mary!" I'm a little alarmed that they headed off to shed metaphorical blood singing this song, but I suppose it's quite the medieval attitude. There is no music for the verses in the Piae Cantiones; the verse melody is usually given as from the Bohemian collection referenced above; however, since I have seen at least three different verse melodies all claim the same source, I remain in doubt until the Czech National Library sees fit to web the collection.
The original French is far superior to the English translation of "O Holy Night." The English version fails to capture the emotional transition of the Midnight (Minuit) Mass from awestruck to joyous. The first chorus asks the people to kneel in homage, but the second tells them to stand up and sing for joy at their salvation.
People, arise! Sing of your deliverance!
Editor's note: We don't have permission to post the lyrics here as this song is still under active copyright.

Fortum est l'un des principaux producteurs nordiques d'énergie. L'entreprise basée à Espoo, en Finlande, produit, distribue et vend de l'électricité dans 14 pays d'Europe du Nord, le pourtour de la Baltique et la Russie Occidentale. L'énergie hydraulique (41 %) et nucléaire (31,5 % pour l'Europe et la Russie) sont les deux principaux types d'énergie produits et gérés par Fortum.

Fortum est cotée sur à la bourse NASDAQ OMX Helsinki, et est actuellement le seul énergéticien nordique enregistré au Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI).

Histoire

Les origines du groupe Fortum remontent à plus de 100 ans. Dans sa structure actuelle, le Groupe Fortum a été créé en 1998. Il est issu de la fusion de IVO (Imatran Voima Oy), entreprise publique de l'État finlandais créée en 1921, productrice d'énergie et de chaleur, avec Neste Oy, la compagnie pétrolière nationale finlandaise. En 2005, Fortum a cédé les actifs de Neste Oy, cotée séparément.

En décembre 2013, Fortum vend son réseau de distribution local électrique, ce qui correspond à environ 20 % du réseau national, à un groupe d'investisseur pour 2,52 milliards d'euros.

En mars 2015, Fortum vend son réseau de distribution d'électricité en Suède pour 6,6 milliards d'euros à un consortium.

En septembre 2017, Fortum annonce le lancement d'une offre d'acquisition sur Uniper pour 8,05 milliards d'euros. En janvier 2018, E.ON accepte de vendre sa participation de 46,6 % dans Uniper à Fortum.

En octobre 2019, Fortum annonce l'acquisition d'une participation de 20,5% dans Uniper, montant sa participation à 70,5 %.
En décembre 2019, Fortum annonce la vente d'un réseau de chaleur, à Joensuu dans l'est de la Finlande, à la société Savon Voima pour 530 millions d'euros.

En juillet 2021, Fortum annonce la vente d'une participation de 50 % dans Exergi, entreprise gérant les réseaux froids et chaud de Stockholm à un fonds d'investissement de pour 2,9 milliards de dollars.

Production d'électricité

Hydroélectricité
L'énergie hydraulique a toujours été le cœur de métier de Fortum (IVO débuta l'exploitation d'énergie hydraulique en Finlande en 1923). La société détient et exploite actuellement près de 260 centrales hydrauliques, principalement en Norvège et en Finlande, pour une capacité de production de  MW. L'énergie hydraulique représente 48 % de l'énergie produite par Fortum dans les pays nordiques et un tiers du total de l'énergie produite par Fortum chaque année.

Les activités de Fortum sont certifiées conformes aux normes ISO 14001 en matière de protection de l'environnement, et  BS OHSAS 18001 en matière de santé et de sécurité. Le parc hydraulique bénéficie d'une politique d'investissement continue : depuis le début des années 1990, Fortum a investi environ 270 millions d'euros pour la modernisation de près de 50 sites de production hydraulique.

Énergie Nucléaire

Fortum produit de l'énergie nucléaire depuis plus de 30 ans (depuis 1977). Le groupe possède la centrale nucléaire de Loviisa en Finlande, laquelle couvre environ 10 % de la production énergétique finlandaise. Son parc nucléaire s'étend en Suède avec la détention de parts dans les centrales de Forsmark et d'Oskarshamn. Fortum est également actionnaire de l'entreprise Teollisuuden Voima Oyj, qui exploite deux tranches nucléaires à Olkiluoto en Finlande, et construit actuellement une troisième tranche en coopération avec le consortium Areva-Siemens.

Production combinée de chaleur et d'électricité (cogénération)

Fortum produit et vend de la chaleur dans les pays nordiques et baltes, la Russie et la Pologne, avec 31 centrales de production combinée de chaleur et d'électricité. Fortum est le  important producteur de chaleur dans le monde.

Interview: Exclusive Interview with H.E. Ambassador of France Guillaume Rousson

Cultural, historical and natural Resources of Jajce must be saved
The primary goal of the PI "Agency for Cultural, Historical and Natural Heritage and Development of Tourism Potentials" in the future period will be the cultural-historical and natural heritage of the town of Jajce.
Director of this institution, Midhat Saraf, stated that they will mostly work on the realization of already started projects this year, but they will also be dedicated to the realization of some new challenges, which will include the entire community.
"Our institution was founded in order to preserve everything that is valuable and that needs to be left to next generations. Of course, I do not believe that the development of tourism should be neglected, but on the contrary, I believe that the development of tourism and the preservation of our heritage need to be mutually conditioned. My aim is to secure the status that our town deserves through the activity of our agency in both historical and tourist sense," said Saraf.
Jajce was a royal city on the level of Dubrovnik and Venice in the Middle Ages. Saraf said that they are far away from that now, and explained that since Jajce cannot be a political capital of BiH, it can be its cultural-historical as well as tourist capital.
His plan is to preserve the business operations of the PI "Agency for Cultural, Historical and Natural Heritage and Development of Tourism Potentials" at the same level as before his appointment.
"Of course, I am planning to improve the work of the Agency, but for now, I will try to keep the job at the same level. We have to thank the former director, Huso Hadzic, for everything that has been done so far, and he now has a new role in our institution, the role of adviser, and I hope that we will manage to accomplish all previously determined goals," said Saraf.

Actually, I Don't Like Having "Mom Friends"
by Margaret e Jacobsen
I don't go out of my way to make friends with other moms. I used to. I used to believe that I could somehow be close friends with most people who were parents, especially if our children were friends because, in my head, what other things would we need in common? Weren't our children enough? Unsurprisingly, I learned the hard way that just because you have children, and another woman has children, doesn't mean you'll be friends, or that you even have to be friends. To be honest, I don't like having "mom friends." And I'm absolutely OK with that. When I was a younger mom with two young children in tow, I was so desperate for friendship that I was really willing to be friends with anyone. Even with women who talked behind each other's backs all the time. I settled on these friendships, accepting that, perhaps, this was just all a part of parenthood, befriending women you had nothing in common with because your children get along.
Slowly, I've learned that's absolutely not the case.
Perhaps it's because I became a mom at 21, or perhaps it's because I hate what parenthood is shown as, but I've just never been able to catch on to moms' groups, or moms' night out. I've resisted labeling myself as just "mom," and letting everything follow from there. I've noticed that I also resist the people that just use that term. If I go out, I just treat it as just going out for a drink and dancing. If I hang out with my friends, it's me just hanging out with my friends. My identity is not wrapped up in my role as a mother. And that's why I do not go out of my way to make mom friends. I rely solely on interest and passions to connect with people. Not my children.
How was I supposed to connect with people if all we talked about was our babies?
When I was a younger parent, I joined so many moms' groups out of obligation. What surprised me was how exclusive they seemed to be, as opposed to being inclusive, especially for new mothers like me. I remember getting an email saying I basically needed to audition to be part of this group and although I didn't agree with that, or how it made me feel, I felt like it was important for me to be around my like-minded women and for my daughter to make friends her age. But every meet-up I'd go to, I found myself sitting there awkwardly, making small talk about what my daughter liked to eat, what she enjoyed doing, and what her bedtime should be. I found this terribly boring and frustrating.
How was I supposed to connect with people if all we talked about was our babies? And at that point, our babies could barely even communicate with us! So I left the group. But what followed was a string of different mom "friend" groups. I sat with women who would destroy other moms at the park, and when I tried to object, they laughed it off. So I distanced myself. I couldn't find my footing when there was so much pressure to find friends who identified as moms first and then women second. And putting that pressure on myself to identify like that wasn't helping things at all. Eventually, I met a few women who just happened to be mothers, but the difference was that they were my friends first and foremost. Our children weren't what made us who we were. They weren't who we based our friendship on. Our kids came second, and we came first.
I was a woman first before I ever became a mother. It's really important for me to remember that.
It's not that women who are more children-focused can't be wonderful friends. I've met so many women over the years who identify as that and they've been amazing friends to me. I just find myself struggling to connect with them on a level that I need for my friendships when I put so much pressure on being friends as moms. I find myself befriending more people without children and connecting with them much easier.
I hate that our culture measures our worth as parents by how many activities we've enrolled our children into, how many hours we've logged driving them to their different practices, and whether or not we've joined the PTA. I hate the idea of my children running my home and determining how I spend my time to the point that they influence who I'm friends with. I was a woman first before I ever became a mother. It's really important for me to remember that.
Even though I don't go out in search of mom friends, I do have mom friends. And they're rad. They're women I've connected with before they had children or I even had kids. I connected with them based on their art, their ideas, and the ways they live their lives. It's always a bonus finding out someone you're befriending is also a parent, but a parent who's similar to you, who hasn't stopped drinking at bars, or quit going out dancing simply because of their children, who hasn't built their life around their child's schedule, who doesn't fall by the wayside so that their kid can dominate every hour of the day.
Sometimes, with these friends, we hang out with our children, but mostly without. We eat brunch alone. We work on projects. We talk about ourselves, about what TV shows we're into, what books we're reading. And every once in awhile we mention what our 7 year old is doing, but mainly we commiserate over how much money we're losing because of all the teeth our children have lost. Once I limited myself to befriending only women who were also raising children, but I've learned that my role as a parent doesn't stop me from having friends who don't have children.

Q: Retrieving data of generator object for file listing from FTP.mlsd() Python documentation for FTP.mlsd() says that it returns a generator object yielding a tuple. Upon running the following code, I get the address of that object. At this point, I assume that I have successfully received the list from my server as it doesn't pop any error (Please correct me if the assumption is wrong).
The answer to this question suggests that I should use next() to get the values in the object. But, upon doing so it shows the error saying ftplib.error_perm: 501 Option not understood.

Code

from ftplib import FTP
ftp = FTP('192.168.0.104')
ftp.login('testing','testing')
ftp.cwd('FTP_Test_Site')

temp = ftp.mlsd(path="", facts=["type", "size", "perm"])
print(temp)
print(next(temp))

ftp.quit()

Output

<generator object FTP.mlsd at 0x7f46f9438518>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "BackUp.py", line 18, in <module>
    print(next(temp))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/ftplib.py", line 589, in mlsd
    self.sendcmd("OPTS MLST " + ";".join(facts) + ";")
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/ftplib.py", line 272, in sendcmd
    return self.getresp()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/ftplib.py", line 245, in getresp
    raise error_perm(resp)
ftplib.error_perm: 501 Option not understood.

Any idea about where am I going wrong?

A: ftp mlsd is a generator. So you have to loop over the mlsd.
eg:
dirs=[]
nondirs=[]
for item in ftp.mlsd(dir):
    if item[1]['type'] == 'dir':
        dirs.append(item[0])
    else:
        nondirs.append(item[0])

A: Just convert into a list:
from ftplib import FTP
ftp = FTP('192.168.0.104')
ftp.login('testing','testing')
ftp.cwd('FTP_Test_Site')

myList = list(ftp.mlsd(path="", facts=["type", "size", "perm"]))
for item in myList:
   print(item)

ftp.quit()

Situated on the slopes of Mount Consolino in a panoramic position overlooking the Jonio is where one will come across Stilo immersed in the Ferdinandea territory characterised by beech and fir forests.
Its name derives from the Greek stylos, that is column, with reference to the name Stilida, which was a rest station along Via Consolare Aquilia that united Reggio to Taranto.
Archaeological testimony has been found on its territory, dating back to the Bronze Age and the Magno-Greek era.
Stilo's true and proper foundation is connected to the time of displacement and subsequent settlement of people from the countryside to cities at the beginning of Saracen incursions along the coasts (IX century).
The inhabitants who escaped from Stilida found a community of Basilian monks and hermits already settled there, who lived and preached in the grottoes of Mount Consolino.
The Byzantines built The Cattolica Church by re-utilising stones from Kaulonia, the S. Nicola Da Tolentino Church and the defensive walls.
It seems it was an Arab ally against Emperor Ottone II (982).
In 1072, the City was taken by the Normans who built the Duomo and the Castle on top of the mount which then became part of the Royal Estate, allowing Stilo privileges which it also kept under the Swabians (1194-1266).
Stilo was fortified once more after being conquered by the Angioinians (1266).
Carlo V tried to sell Stilo (1540) to find the necessary funds to oppose Turkish power, but the citizens rebelled and paid the sum asked by the King themselves.
A terrible earthquake in 1783 brought heavy damages to the City.
There are some important Castle ruins that one can visit: the S. Maria d'Ognissanti Duomo with its imposing 14th century portal.
But the true architectural queen of Stilo is La Cattolica. It was founded during the X century by its inhabitants who had recently arrived from the coast. It contains five emergent domes attached to the cubic body of the building and Byzantine frescoes in its interior.
One can also visit the following churches in the suburb: S. Giovanni Terestí, S. Domenico and S. Francesco.
Not too far from Stilo, it's possible to visit the Ferdinandea, the S. Maria della Stella Grotta and the S. Giovanni Vecchio Monastery.
- La Cattolica (X sec.)
- Duomo di S. Maria d'Ognissanti (XII sec.)
- Resti del Castello Normanno
- Chiesa di S. Francesco
- Chiesa di San Giovanni Terestí
- Chiesa di S. Domenico (XVII sec.)
- La Ferdinandea
- Siti di Civilta Rupestre (VII-VIII sec.)
- Grotta Santuario di S. Maria della Stella
- Monastero di S. Giovanni Vecchio (IX o X sec.)
- Fontana della Mangiatorella
- Sito Archeologico di Kaulon
- Visita di Monasterace
- Visita di Stignano
- Visita di Guardavalle
- Visita di Bivongi
- Nessun Museo segnalato
- Palio di Ribusa

A couple of nights ago I (finally) submitted a driver that I've been developing on-and-off over the last 8 months.
I got interested when a Gentoo user on the forums created a thread, detailing the problem that he couldn't use his compact flash reader. I gathered some info and did a bit of Googling: He owned a non-standard device unsupported by Linux.
I found a website on SourceForge, a project where previously, a Linux 2.4 driver had been developed. This was incomplete, but apparently worked for those users.
I did a quick port of their patch to 2.6 (maybe my first piece of "real" kernel hacking..), and after a bit more discussion on the forums, it was working!
A month or so later, I decided to return to this, with the aim of developing the driver into the quality such that it could be submitted for inclusion in the Linux kernel.
I introduced myself on their mailing list. The maintainer of the website fed me some information: he told me where I can get the manufacturers tech documents about the device, and he also persuaded some other people who had contacted him privately abou 2.6 support to join the mailing list and aid development of a 2.6 driver. It turns out that the original developer (Thomas Kreiling) who performed the amazing task of writing a partial driver without the specs, is not active.
Here begins the slow process of slowly developing the work I had already done, solving a few problems and cleaning up the code, using the knowledge I had gained out of interpreting the device specs. Without actually owning the device, development was quite slow.
After a few months of sporadic development, I eventually bought one of these devices from ebay, which allowed me to make a release which pretty much solved all problems, and added features such as the ability to hotswap media. After releasing this, and solving new problems experienced by my 10-or-so testers, I was able to finalize a release and send some final patches to the Linux USB developers.
The code is now pending review, but will hopefully be included in Linux 2.6.12. It adds support for eleven old, but fairly common, compactflash readers.
It's been an amazing experience. Starting with almost zero kernel experience, I now have a fairly sound knowledge of USB, ATA, and SCSI, plus the relevant Linux-specifics. It's also made me realise just how well the "open development" model works : the testers on the mailing list were always cooperative and enthusiastic about the development, and very fast to test new releases, even though they were not interested in coding themselves and at the end of the day just wanted to be able to use their hardware. This support was very encouraging and motivated me to see it through to the end.

Check out: Salman Khan in a turbaned avatar on sets of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo

Salman Khan is one of the leading trend setters in the industry, with almost every look or mannerism of his being instantaneously aped by his fans. While earlier we had given you a glimpse of the sets of the film, Bollywood Hungama came across this image of Salman Khan sporting a traditional turban on sets of his next film Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
If that wasn't all, we hear that Salman Khan, who has been paired opposite Sonam Kapoor in the film will be seen in a double role. While one character he plays will be that of a royal prince, the other will be of a commoner. On the other hand, Sonam Kapoor will be seen playing the role of a princess who is Salman's love interest.
Produced by Rajshri Productions and Fox Star Studios, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo also stars Neil Nitin Mukesh, Swara Bhaskar and Armaan Kohli. It is slated to release on November 1, 2015.
