Torres winery, Penedes, Catalonia, Spain, stock photography samples, by Per Karlsson, BKWine -- This is only a selection of samples. Use Image SEARCH to find more photos -- Torres is one of the precursors of Spanish quality wine and of the development of international markets for Spanish wines. They are today producing wines in three different continents. The roots though are firmly placed in Catalonia, in Vilafranca del Penedes in north eastern Spain, where they also have a big winery. They own 1300 hectares of Catalan vineyard. The production is large scale and very modern. They have been experimenting with many different grape varieties, e.g. the internationally popular cabernet sauvignon (e.g. in Mas la Plana, previously known as Gran Coronas Black Label), chardonnay, gewurztraminer and many more. But they are also keen to preserve local traditional grape varieties.

Anti-hero John Walker gets an Iron Studios statue!
With a grim face and clenched fists, the highly decorated soldier, once chosen to keep alive the legacy of the legendary Liberty Sentinel, goes his own way in a new black, red, and white uniform, seeking his redemption for past mistakes, using his combat skills and strength improved, and recruited by mysterious forces in the service of the US government. Inspired by his appearance on the successful Disney+ streaming series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Iron Studios presents the \"John Walker (US Agent) – Art Scale 1/10 – The Falcon and The Winter Soldier\" statue featuring the American anti-hero played by the actor Wyatt Russell.
Former captain of the US Army\'s 75th Ranger Regiment, John Walker was chosen to succeed Steve Rogers as second Captain America, and on one of his missions, he managed to apply himself a replica of the Super Soldier Serum. Upon seeing his partner and best friend Sgt Lemar Hoskins, known as Battlestar get killed in action, Walker brutally murdered one of the terrorist members of the Flag Smashers, an anti-nationalist group made up of super soldiers. This act caused Walker to be stripped of his cloak and dishonorably discharged from his military rank. After abandoning his revenge to team up with new Captain America Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes against the extremist group, he was recruited by the mysterious Valentina Allegra de Fontaine from whom he received a new costume and was renamed U.S. Agent.
Created in the comic book by Mark Gruenwald and Paul Neary in 1986, John Walker emerged as the supervillain Super-Patriot before taking over as Captain America, and later becoming the anti-hero US Agent. Already available for Pre-Order, John Walker (US Agent) adds as one more important MCU character in Iron Studios\' statue collection, derived from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier series, and which may appear again in a promising fourth solo film of the Captain America confirmed.

We have Timothy Brannan at The Other Side to thank for the scans, and he has lots more selections from Owl and Weasel to peruse. Brannan is a RPG writer who specializes in the horror genre. Check out his books here.
Apocalypse originally appeared as Classic Warlord, self-published by designer Mike Hayes, in 1974. The name changed to Warlord in 1978. Both of these versions came in plain red and blue boxes, respectively. Games Workshop, displaying its usual marketing prowess, released what you see above in 1980. The kids ate it up, despite the fact that the game board was cut in half. How could we resist playing out the "nuclear devastation" that grown men were on the verge of playing for real?
Here are some directions from the 1978 version. See if you can follow them.
We were not a squeamish generation, clearly, apart from the wankers who ran out of the theater during Gremlins.
Thank you, Pitch & Putt, for posting the whole catalog. It's glorious. The number of role-playing games and non-traditional board games available by 1983 is incredible, as Livingstone and Jackson admit in their introductory note. The games are based on every genre, and nearly every workable property (Judge Dredd, Dune, Starship Troopers, Watership Down, The Road Warrior).
As I mentioned here, GW's approach was much more cerebral than TSR's. They focus on the novelty and sophistication of role-playing ("the most original concept in commercially available games for hundreds of years"), diversity of rules systems, and sheer range of game titles.
Compare the GW catalog to this 1981 TSR catalog.
I've talked a little bit about TSR's early marketing campaign in the U.S., and now, thanks to Dirk Malcolm of The Dirk Malcolm Alternative, we see how game makers won over the kids in Britain.
In the same Starburst, there's an article (above) written by Steve Jackson introducing the concept of role-playing games. In his post, Starburst Memories: Tired of Reality?, Dirk talks about the impact it had on him at the time.
When I read this article back in 1982, everything seemed to click into place, and those mysterious games that sat in the corner of Boydell's Toy Shop in Bolton, became a tantalizing gateway into a new world.
It is difficult to appreciate now how much of a conceptual leap it was to play a game that didn't have a board. This was before Fighting Fantasy (choose your own adventure books), before Zelda, before Warhammer, before Total Warcraft and before Second Life. Most people are used to hypertextual narrative games, they are part of everyday life, but back in the early 1980s it took a leap of faith to move from Monopoly to playing mind-games with dice.
STAY TUNED: Dirk (a.k.a. Chris) has kindly agreed to participate in my Interview with a Geek series. I'm super excited about getting a non-American perspective on living life "with funny-shaped dice," among other things.


Day-trippers and thru-hikers alike will be glad they brought a map on the Appalachian Trail. Covering some of the most challenging and rugged terrain, this map covers Mount Carlo to Pleasant Pond, the southern Maine section of the trail.

Little Montauk's Big History Lives On
By Alexandra Andreassen Posted on September 14, 2014

Montauk has an interesting and long history beyond its status as a summer playground.
Native Americans, including the Algonquin-speaking Montaukett of the East End, have lived on Long Island for more than 4,000 years. The Montaukett tribe was closely related to tribes on the rest of Long Island, as well as to Massachusetts and Connecticut tribes. The Montaukett were dependent on the sea for their livelihood, and became experts at hunting whales. They became wealthy from the abundance of wampum, sacred beads made from shells found on Long Island, which prompted aggression from other jealous tribes.
After Europeans first came to the area in the early 1600s, the Montauketts were coerced into giving up their land. In the late 17th century, Chief Wyandanch signed over much of the territory of Long Island to English settler Lion Gardiner. Warfare and new diseases contributed to drastic population declines among the tribe. By 1879, the last of their land was sold to land developer Arthur Benson.
One of the most notable Montauketts was Stephen Talkhouse, who was famed for walking the 30–50 mile trip between Montauk and East Hampton or Sag Harbor and back every day. About 500 people are currently registered as part of the tribe, and native ruins are still visible today at the Montauk County Park.
East Hampton settlers used Montauk as a summer pasture for cattle and horses. Established in 1658, Deep Hollow Ranch near Montauk Point is the oldest cattle ranch in the U.S. The ranchers laid out Old Montauk Highway in the 1700s, and the annual cattle drives became big local events. Three houses were built for the herders while they were in Montauk: First House burned down in 1774, Second House (1797) is now a museum maintained by the Montauk Historical Society and Third House (1806) is now the headquarters for the County Park.
Because of its geographical location, Montauk also has an important maritime history. Since the town was extremely important for foreign trade, George Washington commissioned the Montauk Point Lighthouse, which was built in 1796. The Coast Guard was stationed there for many years, and the army used it during World War II. The still-active lighthouse is now a symbol and icon of Montauk.
The schooner Amistad provides another chapter in Montauk's storied history. The Amistad landed in Montauk in 1839 after slaves on board revolted. The white crew tricked them into thinking that they had returned to Africa, and they were captured when they arrived. This sparked a widely publicized court case in which the slaves were ultimately freed. There are also legends of pirate booty buried in Montauk, and it's not uncommon to find liquor buried in the sand dunes from the rum runners who smuggled it in during prohibition.
Another famous moment in Montauk history came when Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders were quarantined in the area for yellow fever after the Spanish-American War. They spent their time at Camp Wikoff in 1898. Montauk was a force in World War II as well. The Point, including Camp Hero, became a strategic military base.
As a seaside town, fishing has long been a staple of Montauk life, and it has large commercial and recreational fleets. Another "Fisher" has been important in Montauk's history—Carl Fisher, who purchased most of the East End from the heirs of Arthur Benson in 1926. He had plans to turn Montauk into the "Miami Beach of the North," laying out the town and building the Yacht Club, the Montauk Manor, the Playhouse, the tower in the center of town and the golf course. Although he lost everything in the stock market crash of 1929, the tourism industry was revived in the 1960s.
Montauk houses a number of hotels and motels, unique when compared with the other South Fork towns. Locals and visitors alike are infatuated with its beautiful beaches, surfing, outdoor activities and diverse nature. The town continues to be defined by its connections to the sea, and it will assuredly remain a popular destination for years to come.

China is experiencing its most severe economic downturn in decades, and revitalizing its economic model is critical to future prosperity — not only in China, but around the world.
Central to that effort is the transformation of China's cities. By adopting a new approach to urbanization, its leaders can assure more balanced investment, address a major source of debt, achieve a consumption windfall and clean up the country's environment. Otherwise, China's economic and environmental problems will worsen, with vast implications for the rest of the world.
China's success has been built on two pillars: investment and exports. But after decades of growth, this model is delivering diminishing returns. There is little doubt that China must change to a new model, one that relies on consumption to generate growth, while addressing debt and broadening the use of sustainable energy and environmental practices.
Cities, home to hundreds of millions of Chinese consumers, lie at the core of this problem — and offer a potential solution.
A flawed system of municipal finance is driving debt, corruption and dissent, while unsustainable urban planning has yielded polluted cities that are destroying China's ecosystem. Yet China's future requires continued urbanization, which, absent a new approach, will only make the problem worse.
Cities can, however, be part of the solution: better urban policies can put China on a healthier path forward, economically and environmentally.
For one thing, municipal financial reform is essential because debt is crushing Chinese cities, leaving mayors with no means of financing the central government's policy mandates. Mayors have developed creative ways to raise revenues, including appropriating farmers' land and seizing land on the outskirts of cities to sell to developers. But these practices contribute to urban sprawl and often feed corruption.
Among other changes, China's cities need transparent budgets and the devolution of more tax authority to cities.
More innovative urban planning and design are also needed. To achieve the country's goals of raising living standards for a broader share of the population, cities must be better designed to yield energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.
China's potential is stifled by traffic and pollution. Gazing out my hotel window in Beijing on a recent trip, I saw air that was hazy and polluted — a stark contrast to the sparkling view of Lake Michigan I enjoy from my kitchen window at home in Chicago.
This isn't just China's problem. Experts found that dirty air from China contributed up to 20 percent of the ground-level pollution on the American West Coast in 2010. And that is when just one-tenth of Chinese own cars. Imagine what China's air quality will become when this number triples, as some experts predict it will within the next several years.
Take another example: construction. Within city centers are countless "superblocks" — half-kilometer-square developments interspersed with huge boulevards that create monster traffic jams and skyrocketing pollution.
In response, an approach that featured smaller blocks and mixed-use neighborhoods and accessible public transportation would alleviate these unintended consequences. Such "livable cities" would balance economic development with energy efficiency, improve air quality and reduce congestion.
Getting China's urbanization right will matter to us all. Fortunately, many in China understand this, and cooperation with the United States government, corporate world and nonprofit sector, including my own research and advocacy institute, is bringing them the tools they need to prioritize design issues in their cities and adapt infrastructure plans now. These tools include instruction in sustainable practices for government leaders, public education in environmental issues and specialized training for the country's urban planners.
China must adopt this new approach quickly, before vast infrastructure investment makes the current model irreversible. By 2025, China is projected to have a staggering 200 cities with populations over one million. America has just nine.
Global prosperity depends on China's continuing to be an engine of growth. We all need China to reinvent its economic model. Working together on urbanization creates progress toward joint solutions to the challenges the world faces from overwhelming pressure on natural ecosystems, resources and commodities.
We need Chinese cities to succeed, and we can help ensure that they do so.

It was about -8 in the parking lot at the mountain today, and colder at the top of the hill and even colder with the windchill. And let's not forget the fog. It was a tad challenging, but the snow was good and we had fun. Fynn had a fever this morning so we phoned our sitter and she was able to sit with him while we took Sophie up.
Skiing with kids is not easy. It is not inexpensive, there is often grumbling (at least when they are younger there was a fair bit of it), and by the time you get them in their clothing and equipment it often seems more inviting just to sit by the fire with a nice drink.
However, in spite of it all, skiing with kids is worth it. They have become more independent - carrying their own gear, getting down a mountain, picking themselves up. We are also creating some lasting memories and they are learning a skill that will serve them into their adulthood.
This is inspiring to me! We don't have good access to skiing, but it's something Mike really wants to try one of these days.
But hearing the grumbling part made me think of Erin and dance yesterday. I was so tempted to just say forget it because some weeks she just puts up a fight. But then she loves it!
And she loves the recital, which she couldn't do if she didn't go to class regularly.
It's a challenge sometimes though!


When someone creates an Ecourse, they come from the mindset that "everyone already knows about this" or "nobody wants to hear about that. " Having that kind of mindset going into to your creative mode will almost always put you in a stalemate with yourself. That is NOT a pleasant feeling, let me tell you.
The bottom line is when you use the excuse (yes, I'm calling it an excuse) of "everyone already knows about this" you're putting restrictions on yourself. Another way this can be said is to never underestimate the lack of knowledge out there about your particular Ecourse topic. Think of your past, was there a time when you didn't know stuff about your topic that you know now? Do you think there are others out there that might be in that same position?
There will always be someone out there that knows more than you do and there will always be someone out there that knows LESS than you do about your topic. Want to be success? Cater to the folks that know less than you do and teach them. Yes, it's that simple. If you create your Ecourse so the person who knows nothing about your topic can follow along, you have a successfull Ecourse.
AND, you can then create more advanced Ecourses for the folks that want more advance knowledge. Do you see how this can spiral into something extremely profitable for you?
Assuming that folks don't want to know what you're offering or already know what you're offering is a mistake that a LOT of Ecourse Creators do, please don't fall into that trap. Oh, and make sure your Ecourse is enjoyable as well.
Bottom line is, don't underestimate the lack of knowledge out there.

A Broadway Romance
True love, crushes, bitter breakups and eternal amour are all fair game in this warm and witty concert that traces the path of romance through unforgettable Broadway classics.
Created by Ted Sperling, the Tony and Drama Desk Award-winning music director/conductor, it's a story of two people and the ups and downs of romance.
Joining him for the weekend, away from her star turn in Bandstand on Broadway is two-time Tony Award-nominee Laura Osnes, who Chicago audiences will remember as Julie Jordan in Lyric Opera's moving production of Carousel in 2015, along with Santino Fontana (the voice of Hans in Disney's Frozen).
"Laura and Santino are a joy to work with," said Sperling. "Having played Cinderella and her prince on Broadway for a year, they've developed a very easy and natural rapport with each other. And, we've added the Frozen and Cinderella songs specifically for them."
You'll also hear songs from Carousel, Follies, Oklahoma and more. "I'm a big fan of the newest song on the program, 'First Date, Last Night' from the off-Broadway hit, Dogfight. I love the freshness of the sound, and the way these two people are negotiating a second date after a disastrous first one," he added.
The Grant Park Orchestra and Chorus help tell the lovers' story, capturing audiences' hearts with music by Rodgers and Hammerstein, Leonard Bernstein and Lerner and Loewe.
No stranger to conducting outdoors, Sperling makes his Festival debut with A Broadway Romance. He's excited to be back in town for a weekend of Broadway's most romantic songs, played against the backdrop of the city's magnificent skyline with a world-class orchestra and chorus, along with two of his favorite performers—Cinderella and her prince!
Reserve your seats close to the stage in our membership section for A Broadway Romance on July 21 and 22.

A major effort has been invested in making applications of this bioreactor more efficient.
Firstly, a replacement of the traditional rotation movement by an oscillating up and down movement of stirring discs driven by an electromagnet yields several important advantages. A soft, whole volume movement of the medium results in optimal gas distribution throughout the medium and is also advantageous for cell growth. No vortex is formed and the elimination of baffles simplifies the construction of the bioreactor. A single silicone membrane efficiently replaces traditional seals and assures perfect sterility. In the case of extremely sensitive cells gas distribution tubing can be wound on aspiral fixed to the axis. The up and down movement facilitates the gas transfer and simultaneously provides a gentle movement of the medium.
Secondly, a new heat radiation system has also been introduced. A heating spiral in a gilded parabolic reflector has been placed under the bottom of the vessel. The IR rays efficiently heat up the culture without overheating it at any volume of medium. Several innovations allow the construction of high quality bioreactors at lower cost.


The Crush-Royal Interior selection presents entirely new designs of a fold, evocative of cool, Chinese ink drawings; it starts in the middle of the length that spreads out diagonally in great lines, a reminiscent of branches. The colours are splendidly designed: Ducat - Gold with Lacquer Red or Blue-Black with Platinum. A compressed damask pattern, just a contemplation in the shade, emphasising the splendour of the second design. The colours are supplementary based on its quality: light grey, lustrous mother-of-pearl, and royal yellow that's fit for a castle.

Before I get into the important topic mentioned in the headline, I would be remised to not take a few minutes to thank our local officials and emergency responders for their response and work on the recent flooding in our region. The hundreds of responders and volunteers working tirelessly has been awe-inspiring as I have visited with many of the local officials working to assist their communities. From all of us- Thank you!
Another awe-inspiring news item came late Wednesday March 20 when it was announced that the Capitol Police were shutting down entrance to the Capitol Rotunda due to a maximum capacity crowd gathered in the Capitol to stand up for Life as part of a Pro-Life Lobby Day. Although I have only worked in the Capitol a few short months, I am no stranger to raucous displays of protest in the Capitol as groups lobby passionately each day for their chosen causes. However, this was something far, far different.
Instead of hurried voices scripted over a cheap megaphone, the Rotunda was filled with the voices of our youth- the youth choir of St. John Cantius Church, to be specific- lifting up their angelic voices in a hymn praying for their unborn brothers and sisters in Christ. It was a sound I had never heard in the Rotunda. Our young people lifted their voices well beyond the peak of the 361 foot dome. I don't believe it too bold to proclaim, certainly their voices touched the ears of our Creator as well. These children locked shoulders and hands and sang to our Creator for all the innocent lives their policy-makers have allowed be sent into His loving arms far too early. It was something I will remember for the rest of my life.
While I am Pro-Life and my voting record in Springfield will strongly reflect that position, even the most ardent of Pro-Life advocates leaves room for empathetic nuance surrounding these issues. I don't know anyone who believes that a person who has an abortion wants to make that choice. They are in need of our prayers and also in need of policies that ensure their emotional and physical well-being is cared for before, during and after such a horrific life event.
If they are a minor going through an abortion, they need their family support system and not confidentiality from their parents or guardians for undergoing such a major medical procedure. The consequences of an abortion require medical, emotional, and psychological support and follow-up and we fail our citizens as easily as we have failed the unborn if we don't look out for their health until such time as our policies reflect the will of our hearts and our highest aspirations. That's why I oppose the proposed repeal of Illinois Parental Notification Law. In the same General Assembly debating a bill to not allow 12-year-olds to babysit their siblings without an adult, we are debating that a child can get an abortion without parental notification- it's a bizarre dichotomy.
Other proposals in Springfield have haunting echoes of efforts in other parts of our country which are sadly veering toward infanticide. My opposition to these proposals has nothing to do with infringing upon Roe v. Wade nor women's healthcare. I suggest these proposals are against women's health and far beyond our common sense of decency as a civilized society. They are out-of-touch and extreme. At a time when it is critical for legislators to be addressing funding of our schools, attracting jobs to Illinois, and keeping our kids and grand-kids in Illinois, we are forced to have to defend the very sanctity of Life itself.
If the "Hymn of the Holy Innocents" sung by the youth choir of St. John Cantius Church of Chicago filling the Capitol Rotunda with love and prayer does not melt your heart and make you ask what we're doing in this State and where we are headed if we don't change course, then I fear nothing else will. You can view the video of this moment here.
Please do watch this and then take action to allow your voice to be heard as well- to both our Creator and our policymakers.

Turkey eyes Iran share in Iraqi markets after US sanctions hit
Home/Iraq, Turkey/Turkey eyes Iran share in Iraqi markets after US sanctions hit

With US re-imposed sanctions against Iran scaling back Iranian economic activity in the region, Turkey is looking to fill the void in commodity exports left behind by Iranian companies leaving Iraq.
Turkish exports are expected to increase, compensating for goods imported from Iran.
Iraq's head of Turkey-Iraq Cooperation Council Amin Taha said that Iraqi markets generally prefer to import basic commodities from Iran because of their low rates.
Iranian goods popularly imported by Iraq are slaughterhouse products, eggs, legumes, plastic manufactures, as well as building materials. Taha added that "Iraq will no longer import these products from Iran, and will likely turn to Turkey to accommodate its market demands."
Iran is currently facing two waves of harsh US sanctions, the first of which was imposed on August 6, and the second on November 5. Its industrial, commodity export, oil, financial, banking and shipping sectors all have been affected as a result.
Despite the current shortcoming in size of trade relations between Iraq and Turkey, Taha confirmed that an increase will be witnessed after Iraqi traders ink deals with Turkish companies to secure supplies.
According to official figures, the volume of trade exchange between Iraq and Turkey in 2017 amounted to 10.6 billion dollars, a rise of 15 percent from 2016.Turkey's exports to Iraq represent about 5.8 percent of Turkey's total exports.
Turkish exports to Iraq were valued at $9 billion in 2017, while Iraqi exports to Turkey reached only $1.6 billion worth of goods.
It is noteworthy that Turkish construction companies have an important share in Iraq's contracting market, an economic channel bolstered since 1981.
Turkish companies contributed to the completion of 645 Infrastructure projects, between 2003 and 2012, worth $12.9 billion.
"There are only two customs gates between Iraq and Turkey, and this has a negative impact on shared trade relations," Taha said while recommending the opening of new customs gates.
Turkey is seeking to strengthen its trade relations with both with Baghdad and Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, to a higher level in coming days, reaffirmed Taha.
Mevlut Cavuşoglu, the Turkish foreign minister, paid a visit to Baghdad and Erbil last month highlighting Turkish-Iraqi continued ties in various fields.
According to experts, Turkey can export many food products, agricultural, building materials, textiles, cars, machinery, and electrical appliances to Iraq.

Jeremy Kane remembered during annual run in Cherry Hill
Gone, but not forgotten.
That was the shared sentiment felt last week on the grounds of Cherry Hill High School East, prior to the start of the third annual Jeremy Kane 5K Benefit Run.
More than 300 family, friends, neighbors and members of the community participated in the 3.1-mile run in honor of Jeremy Kane, who was killed by a suicide bomb attack while on patrol in the Helmand Province in Afghanistan in January 2010.
Money raised from the event benefits the Jeremy Kane Scholarship Fund, which supports student veterans at Rutgers University-Camden, where Jeremy was enrolled as a criminal justice major.
Councilwoman Melinda Kane, Jeremy's mother, said the amount for the scholarship will top $50,000. The first scholarship will be awarded next year. Rutgers-Camden students have also held other fundraisers throughout the year.
Kane said she is proud of the work the community has done to pull together scholarship money. She also thanked the Jewish War Veterans, the township and school district, along with the American Legion.
She said many students like Jeremy who have served in the military, would have benefited greatly from college scholarship funding.
"Jeremy never received any assistance toward his college education. Despite training every summer and one weekend a month, that did not make him eligible for benefits," Kane said. "Had he not been killed in combat and if he returned to Rutgers, he would have only been eligible for 50 percent of the GI Bill benefits since he was a reservist."
The yearly event continues to bring in hundreds of supporters from near and far, as well as guest speakers and local dignitaries.
Kane spoke at the event in remembrance of her son. But it was the words of someone else that day that really stuck with her.
"(He) summed it up best when he said, 'When a person dies, they are ceremoniously laid to rest and hopefully their memory lives on. When a hero who laid their life on the line to protect your family dies, one ceremony will simply not do. We gather, we run and we walk to celebrate the freedom men like Jeremy have bestowed upon us. Many have died for this freedom, but Jeremy was ours. We honor Jeremy by using the last gift he has given us all, the freedom to appreciate it.' Pretty powerful words," Kane said.

What's New at Melbourne Leisurefest
Article by Brendan Batty · October 5, 2018 · 0
Melbourne Leisurefest is on this weekend and there's a whole swag of new caravans, campers and camping products on display. Here's some of the most notable.
On The Move Caravans Traxx Series II
The Victorian manufacturer's first slide-out model, the Traxx is a serious piece of caravan. The giant dual axle van has a very modern-looking interior that's really set off by the 50-inch (yes, 50 and inches is correct), telly that rises from a cabinet at the foot of the bed. All of the van's furnaiture is CNC cut, too, which adds to the precision of the cabinetry.
The Traxx Series II caravans are described by On The Move's owner, Lennie Mifsud as the brand's versatile caravans – a semi-off-road model they can do a lot of things with. All that size and luxury comes at a price, though – the van is on display for around $119,000.
Thetford's new fridge and cooktops
European appliance manufacturer Thetford, is displaying its new range of kitchen appliances, including the T1152, a slimline 152L compressor fridge. Designed to fit into more convenient and space-efficient areas of a caravan, and run off batteries and solar, rather than gas, the new fridge has a large bottom drawer, big enough for 2L bottles standing up, and 18L of freezer capacity.
Thetford also has the new Topline 922, two-burner gas stove on display, alongside the Enamelled Kitchen Centre. The stove, with it's enammelled glass base, rather than stainless steel, looks stunning and is supposed to be easy to clean. It'd look pretty good in a vintage caravan renovation, that's for sure.
Skamper Campers Dingo Pup
The Dingo Pup is the latest in the Skamper Kampers forward-fold campers, although this one's the lightest of the lot. Tipping the scales at just 1160kg, the Pup is over 300kg lighter than the Dingo. It still has Skamper's one-peice continuous chassis and what appears to be the same body and tent as the heavier versions, although downgrades many of the features to skim the kilos back. There's 10in brakes instead of 12in, 15in wheels instead of 16in. It also doesnt have the luggage rack, as extensive a kitchen, less underbody protection, one battery instead of two and a smaller water tank. Skamper says this has resulted in a 100kg ball weight, which is feather-lite for a forward fold camper trailer.
Trakka Trakkadu 450 S
Trakka is showing off it's updated campervan range, including the impressive, albeit indulgent, Sports range of campers. The 450 S is based on the most powerful of the Volkswagen Transporter range, and has a 150kW, 450Nm engine with 7-speed DSG gearbox.
The 450 S will be completed with Trakka's Plus Pack, an extra's package that adds a swag of high-end gear to the campers. That includes at aforementioned lithium batteries as well as an app connect function, reverse camera, Volkwagen's light and sight package, colour matched bumpers, fog lights and window screens and blinds. There's also an electric awning, 38-litre grey water tank, crockery set, a sliding side door screen and a rear annexe for extra living space.
The lithium battery pack includes a 125ah battery which is light weight and much faster to reach full charge. As it's usable capacity is 25 per cent higher, it also offers more power for the same size battery when compared to an AGM. It's partnered with a 15amp, five-stave 240-volt lithium battery charger and 25amp, five stage DC to DC lithium charger. You probably can't afford it, but it's worth a look just to sit inside it and dream…
Dometic CFF 45
Dometic has comprehensively updated its old CF40 portable fridge, replacing it with the larger capacity CFF 45. The new, 43.5L fridge weighs 19kg and is said to be one of the most efficient fridges in the range. Along with the digital display system, the new fridge has a unique double-hinged lid, so it can open from either side, depending on what's convenient. It can hold wine and soft-drink bottles up right, and can be used as either a fridge or a freezer.
Melbourne Leisurefest runs all weekend. Find out more here.

Expert consensus has it that Brexit will hurt the United Kingdom's economy in the near term, and British industries and communities that trade extensively with the European Union will feel the most pain.

UK residents, whether in the leave or remain contingents, along with policy experts and regulators on both sides of the Channel, will appreciate the insights of this cogent study.

Gutenberg's moving type propelled Europe towards the scientific revolution
The smartphone, internet and social media are reshaping economies and society in the 21st century on a par with Johannes Gutenberg's revolutionary invention of the printing press six centuries ago. That machine brought automation, competition and mass production to the world of information, with enormous consequences for people's daily lives. In this fascinating and insightful historical analysis, economist Jeremiah Dittmar and data scientist Skipper Seabold report on the profound changes wrought by the printing press and cast them as precedents for the scope of the digital transformation taking place in the 2000s.

Southern Coast Distillers Batch 01R Rum (700ml)
Welland, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
The word is out, unfortunately this little venture is no longer. A formal newsletter was sent to Southern Coast Distillers members on December 4th, 2012 which can be found here.
The Southern Coast Distilling company was formed in May 2004 by three friends and their partners as a vehicle to build a South Australian Single Malt Distillery that will form a lasting legacy. The actual distilling first took place in January 2005 utilising the small 80 litre still built by the proprietors and named 'Monty' because it looked a bit like the cartoon character Monty Burns. They filled their first 50 litre cask from Tasmania in April 2005. Encouraged by their small success, "We realised that we could make passable spirit and that our worst case scenario of having large quantities of whisky to drink in our retirement if the endeavour failed was probably behind us. We immediately set about building a 600l still called Homer. Homer was commissioned on the 27th of June 2005 and charged with a wash of molasses to make rum the same day."
This rum was filled into a re-made and re-furbished, very heavily charred port cask made from American oak in May 2008. There was a very long fermentation using a wine yeast and Queensland molasses with acid balance provided by citrus fruit.
Tasting notes: [Batch 01R tasted] Pale gold colour. A dank wood aroma quickly blows off revealing attractive, sweet, estery aromas of brown sugar, dried banana, raisin and vanilla custard. The entry is soft and semi sweet, building with good concentration with flavours of dried banana and raisin toast. Gentle spices add depth. Creamy mouth feel. A little short but redeemed by a lengthy aftertaste of molasses, dried banana and spicy stewed fruits. A promising first release. 46% Alc./Vol. 180 bottles produced.

Don Quixote – Knight of the Rueful Countenance
Arturo Escalante March 11, 2022 3 min read
Don Quixote de la Mancha: Knight of the Rueful Countenance and Knight of the Lions
The title character of the novel, Don Quixote is a gaunt, middle-aged gentleman who, having gone mad from reading too many books about chivalrous knights, determines to set off on a great adventure to win honor and glory in the name of his invented ladylove, Dulcinea. Don Quixote longs for a sense of purpose and beauty—two things he believes the world lacks—and hopes to bring order to a tumultuous world by reinstating the chivalric code of the knights-errant. Initially, Don Quixote's good intentions do only harm to those he meets, since he is largely unable to see the world as it really is.
Don Quixote, "A country gentleman . . . who bordered upon fifty, was of a rough constitution, extremely meager and hardfeatured, an early riser . . . and addicted to reading of books of chivalry." I, i, 1; DQ I, 1
Quixote is a middle-aged gentleman who has gone mad from reading…
He is a tall, meager, long-legged, [lantern]-jawed, stalking figure; his hair inclining to gray; his nose hooked and aquiline, with long, straight black mustachios. II, i, 14; DQ II, 14
[His] tall stature . . . [the] sepulchral meagerness of his aspect, his solemn gravity, the strangeness of his armor, all together [formed] such a composition as perhaps had never been seen in that country. II, i, 16; DQ II, 16 The redresser of grievances, the righter of wrongs, the protector of damsels, the terror of giants, and [the] thunderbolt of war. I, iv, 25; DQ I, 52 The most agreeable madman who ever lived! II, iv, 13; DQ II, 55
The novel's tragicomic hero. Don Quixote's main quest in life is to revive knight-errantry in a world devoid of chivalric virtues and values. He believes only what he chooses to believe and sees the world very differently from most people. Honest, dignified, proud, and idealistic, he wants to save the world. As intelligent as he is mad, Don Quixote starts out as an absurd and isolated figure and ends up as a pitiable and lovable old man whose strength and wisdom have failed him.
Most Famous Quote by Quixote
"When equity can, and ought to take place, inflict not the whole rigour of the law upon the delinquent; for, severity is not more respected than compassion, in the character of a judge."
Quixote gives Sancho this piece of advice before Sancho leaves to govern his island. With this advice, his sense of morality shows through. Although Quixote wants to protect oppressed or injured people, he has no desire to seek revenge on those who harm others, but let them be judged by God in the end.
Another Famous Quote by Quixote
"You blockhead, cried Don Quixote, incensed, it neither concerns, nor belongs to knights-errant, to examine whether the afflicted, the enslaved and oppressed, whom they meet on the highway, are reduced to these wretched circumstances by their crimes, or their misfortunes; our business is only to assist them in their distress, having an eye to their sufferings, and not to their demerits."
Quixote chastises Sancho after Sancho claims he warned Don Quixote about what might happen if he set the slaves free. Earlier, these slaves, after being freed by Quixote, mugged him. Upset and offended by Sancho's insinuation, Don Quixote explains that they have no right to judge anyone in dire circumstances, but only to help them. Don Quixote aims to be morally virtuous, but his attempts sometimes backfire.

Government of Rajasthan, vide notification no. F.12(16)FD/Tax/2009-116 dated. 21 January 2016 has launched an amnesty scheme with the aim to provide an opportunity to dealers to regularise their position with commercial tax department. The scheme provides for part/full waiver of interest and/or penalty subject to fulfilment of certain conditions. The scheme will now be called Amnesty Scheme – 2016.
Dealer or person against whom total outstanding demand is less than rupees INR 15 Crore.
The demand has been created on or before 30 June 2015.
The demand has been created under erstwhile Rajasthan Sales Tax Act, 1954 or Rajasthan Sales Tax Act, 1994 or Rajasthan Value Added Tax Act, 2003 or Central Sales Tax Act, 1956. (These laws are hereinafter collectively referred to as 'relevant laws').
Further, the scheme shall also apply to the dealers who have been permitted to pay the demand in installments under the 'relevant laws' and against whom case of prosecution has been filed by department for failure to pay the demand.
In case demand is under dispute, dealer is mandatorily required to withdraw pending case from concerned court, tax board or appellate authority (as the case may be) against which the benefit of amnesty scheme is availed.
However, in cases where appeal is filed by the revenue, proof of withdrawal of case is not required and department shall withdraw the case along charge of prosecution (wherever applicable).
Comply with the conditions in table below.
*Outstanding interest includes interest accrues up to the date of order under this scheme.
Submit an application in form AS-I on or before 15 March 2016 along with details of deposit and proof of withdrawal of case. A dealer is required to make separate applications for each individuals outstanding demand.
After verifying details in application and on being satisfied on compliance with the conditions contained in this scheme, assessing authority shall reduce the outstanding demand of penalty and/or interest.
Assessing authority will forward a copy of AS-II to Deputy Commissioner (Administration) & Commissioner in cases where total amount of waiver is above INR 5 lacs.
Further, Assessing authority will forward a copy of AS-II to the applicant as an acknowledgement for discharge of dues.
Our view: This amnesty scheme is a one-time offer which provides immunity to dealers to regularise their position with the commercial tax department. The dealers should avail the benefit of the scheme and discharge their contingent dues (especially for weak matters).
Cut-off date for 'creation of demand' is prescribed as 30 June 2015. It needs to be clarified that date of 'creation of demand' would be taken as date of demand order or date of service of order.
Whether 'total outstanding demand' in terms of above scheme shall be taken as 'amount admitted under the scheme' or total demand outstanding for the dealer for the relevant period.
Trust you will find the above information timely and useful.

Ekiti First Lady, Oyebanji Visits Mother Of Newly Born Triplets
Published by: Editor on October 30, 2022.
L-R: First Lady, Ekiti State, Dr Olayemi Oyebanji with the Mother of the triplets, Modupe Fagbemi
Ekiti State First Lady, Dr Olayemi Oyebanji, Friday visited a set of newly born triplets and their mother with a call on pregnant women in the state, particularly those with multiple gestations, to register with government hospitals for quality health care.
Dr. Oyebanji visited the 22 years old mother of the triplets, Modupe Fagbemi, at Omuo General Hospital, Omuo-Ekiti in Ekiti East Local Government Area of the state.
The First Lady in a statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Olayinka Oyebode said early registration would enable expectant mothers to get adequate ante-natal care from qualified and experienced medical personnel during and after pregnancy.
She presented cash gift and other baby items including clothes, diapers, toiletries and foodstuffs to the triplets- one boy and two girls. She also gave gifts to other women who recently gave birth at the hospital.
Dr Oyebanji who doubles as the Chairperson, Ekiti State Multiple Birth Trust Fund, said the children will enjoy all the benefits of the Trust Fund as contained in the Ekiti State Multiple Birth Trust Fund Bill, recently passed into law by the State House of Assembly.
Earlier, the Medical Director of the hospital, Dr Ojo Abraham said that the mother of the triplets was rushed to the hospital on Sunday, October 23 and was able to take delivery of the babies naturally without the caesarean section.
He added that the babies weighed 2kg, 1. 6kg and 1.7 kg respectively at birth.
Also, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development, Mrs Kemi Adeluyi, appreciated the Wife of the Governor for her swift intervention and support for the babies and mother.
The 22 year old mother of the triplets, Modupe Fagbemi said that the babies were her first born.
She appreciated the Wife of the Governor for the visit and the gifts, praying that God would keep her and her family for a successful tenure.

Several HTML5 Titles Come From Inspired
In the mobile casino world, there are two main software platforms. The first is Adobe Flash, a platform that's been used for a long time in all kinds of different applications. The other is HTML5, a newer technology that has a lot of advantages over the Flash-based games. Inspired has shown that they're serious about their future by releasing a number of HTML5 titles, and this is great news for the company as they build momentum in 2016.
Five New Titles
The five new titles starts with Rise of Anubis. This Egyptian-themed game has Super Wild symbols that give you extra wins you wouldn't have picked up otherwise. The Guardians is another game that already has a bit of a following, and it uses Super Stacked symbols to give players chances for multi-line wins. They also have different betting levels based on increasing the size of the symbol stacks for a higher degree of control over gameplay.
Slots are without a doubt the most popular type of game out there, and these new games are a good reason why the genre gets so much attention. For example, with Spirit of the Samurai, players have a Japanese experience with five different gameplay levels. Different features and opportunities for payouts show up across each level, and this includes stacked wilds, free spins, excellent graphics and the ability for players to save their progress so that they don't have to start over at the first level each time they start a new session.
Super Hot Fruits is another game from this set of releases, and it has a Hot Spins feature that gives players a chance for extra payouts when they win at least four times their total bet size. During these Hot Spins, players get a better set of reels that include transferring wilds and other opportunities to get paid in a major way. I Heart Kittens is the last title, and it has 40 paylines and free spins with other bonuses.
Inspired in 2016
Inspired has gotten a lot of attention for their high-quality titles in the past, and the fact that they are moving over to the HTML5 platform with five releases all at the same time confirms what a lot of industry experts have already guessed: This company cares a lot about preparing for the future and giving players what they want.

Demon's Souls Will Have A New Game Mode And Ray Tracing On PS5
One of the most important announcements of the PlayStation 5 event was undoubtedly the remake of Demon's Souls, a title that will come exclusively to the Sony console. The new version of the FromSoftware classic is in good hands, as it is in charge of Bluepoint Games.
At the moment we do not know all the improvements that Demon's Souls will have in the new generation system, but it is a fact that it will come with some exciting additions. We know that the title will have a new game mode.
Also, it was revealed that the remake would take advantage of the potential of the PlayStation 5, so it will offer various graphic configurations depending on the gaming experience that is sought.
Demon's Souls Remake Will Tap Into PS5's Potential
According to the details, the Demon's Souls remake will include a new mode called Fractured Mode, the details of which have not been revealed. However, the community believes that this is a hardcore mode for gamers looking for a real challenge.
On the other hand, it was confirmed that the title would have graphic optimizations and a better shadow system. This will come accompanied by support with ray tracing, so Bluepoint Games does its best to make the game look spectacular.
We also know that Demon's Souls will have 2 settings or graphics modes on Playstation 5. Players will be able to choose between a setting that will focus on the frame rate per second and one that will prioritize graphic fidelity.

Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War does look different on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War arrived on consoles on November 13, becoming one of the titles that welcome the new generation of consoles.
As you already know, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X have different graphics power, and it is completely normal for gamers to wonder which one works better.
A video recently appeared that answers this question, since it puts both versions of Call of Duty side by side so that you can analyze where it looks with more quality.
YouTube channel NB MOTIONS decided to side-by-side gameplay of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, running on PlayStation Series 5 Xbox X.
In almost six minutes we can see the definitive comparison in the graphical performance of both consoles, using the Treyarch title, and to notice the differences you will need a well-trained eye.
We do not tell you more and we leave you the video below.
As you can see, the graphic performance is extremely similar on both consoles; However, lighting Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War looks somewhat clearer on Xbox X Series.
For its part, the PlayStation 5 version stands out in the details of the environment and the definition in some particles, for example, the fire scene.
The differences are minimal and do not allow defining a winner in terms of performance, so you will have to experience it for yourself.
We will have to see other types of comparisons such as loading times and how much the fps is maintained, but it will come later.
If you've already tried Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, let us know what you think.
Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered reveals two new suits and includes five new trophies on PS5
Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered not only improves the performance of the PS4 game, but also adds a few additions, such as two new suits and up to five trophies.
Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered is another of the great attractions to start with PS5 . The game, which arrives on November 19 along with the new generation console, offers a good number of technical improvements compared to its version on PS4, but as we said, it also adds content.
Some of that content has already been detailed. Recently, Insomniac Games has posted a tweet showing the two new costumes available this remastering and also have discovered new five trophies to unlock in PS5.

The list of trophies required to get Platinum in Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered does not change, but five very interesting little challenges have been added that will sting new players. Some of these invite us to maximize all our gadgets, perform a 100 hit combo or overcome a base without taking damage. Here you can consult the complete list of trophies to know the five additions.
In addition, the developer shared the first images of the new costumes that we can wear in this game. Spidey's already extensive repertoire of costumes is further expanded with Arachnid Rider and Armored Advanced Suits. It has not yet been revealed what characteristics these outfits will have. Here you can take a look at them.

New PS5 announcement estimates when Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7 and Ratchet & Clank will arrive
PS5 has a new TV ad where images of the great exclusives that will arrive on the console since its launch and in the coming months have been shown.
PlayStation 5 launches this week and will be available in Europe on November 19 . Along with it come a few exclusive games that will serve to inaugurate the console's catalog. Due to its imminent launch, Sony wanted to capture the spirit of the console in a new ad.
In the video, which we leave you right here, you can see images of Demon's Souls, Spider-Man Miles Morales and other great games that will arrive on the console next year . Horizon Forbidden West , Gran Turismo 7 and Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart , among others, have been present and have left us a very interesting message.
Although there is still a long way to go and right now, given the current situation, everything is very difficult to predict, it seems that Sony is preparing for 2021 the launch of five exclusive games for PlayStation consoles.
In a small text during the trailer, it can be read that Gran Turismo 7, Returnal and Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart would arrive at the beginning of 2021 , for the first part of the year, rather and that Horizon Forbidden West is scheduled for the second half of the year.
This, along with the now official God of War 2 , could mean five big exclusives for PS5 in 2021, although Horizon will also be released for PS4. Without a doubt, it seems that Sony wants to start the generation with force pulling some of its most beloved and well-known sagas . It will play waiting for the confirmation of the windows and later the release dates of all these games.
And you, will you get the PS5 outgoing, or will you wait a while? Of course, do not hesitate to consult our analysis of PS5 and PlayStation 5 Digital, Sony's next-generation consoles, as well as 6 things you must do before having your PS5 to be ready the day you receive it.

I received a call from James Brown while he was in Miami with his new backup band, The J.B.'s. He informed me he was having a problem with Syd Nathan at King Records. Syd refused to let Brown record with The J.B.'s. Always believing in Brown and standing by him, I suggested we record him and his backup band under a pseudonym. I had seen Brown at Ernie Busker's Palms of Hallandale nightclub doing a dance he called "The James Brown Mashed Potatoes." At Criteria the next day we decided to cut an instrumental track and title it "Do The Mashed Potatoes."
One of the repeated lines was for someone to shout "Mashed Potatoes" and Brown volunteered. At the last minute I decided it was too risky using Brown's very recognizable voice and turned to him and said, "You can't do that! I can't use your voice on this record because Nathan will be on our ass. We have to leave your voice off and strictly make this an instrumental." I still liked the idea of someone shouting "Mashed Potatoes", but I had to use someone else.
Brown agreed, so I contacted one of Miami's top black radio DJ personalities by the name of Carlton "King" Coleman and dubbed his voice on top of the recording. If you listen to the record very carefully, you can still hear Brown's voice in the background. I released the song my own Dade label under the name of Nat Kendrick and The Swans. Kendrick was Brown's drummer at the time and The J.B.'s temporarily became The Swans. The single became a smash hit after peaking at #8 on the national R&B charts while reaching #84 on the Billboard Hot 100. – Henry Stone

Corn flour is also known by names corn starch and maize starch. It is quite different from maize flour, as it is prepared from the endosperm of maize grains. It is mainly used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces and curries. Moreover, it is also used as a binder or filler in pastry, puddings and meat industry. It can be used in cakes and custard, as this flour doesn't impart any extra flavour. The Weikfield Corn Flour comes with the high quality assurance of Weikfield, a famous brand.

A golden opportunity awaits anybody who wants to buy the gold coloured GA300GD-9ADR!
A gold watch is something that's usually given at retirements, because they're extremely expensive. Not with the Casio G-Shock though! This watch is a sparkling gold colour, with a greenish digital display, and the hour markers look like gears, giving the whole watch a golden metallic look.
When it's dark outside, turning on the amber backlight makes it shine with the super illuminator, letting you see the time perfectly. As this is an analogue/digital come watch, the light will be limited to the analogue hands and markers, but that will still be enough to see.
Made from Resin, the case, band and bezel are not only light weight, but scratch resistant as well. This will keep that shiny gold colour from becoming a mess, and since it's light weight, you don't have to worry about it weighing your wrist down.
To complement the scratch resistance, the GA300GD also has shock resistance, meaning that if you're outdoors either playing rough or just accidentally hit your wrist while the watch is on it, as long as the force isn't 100m, the watch will still work perfectly.
For more information about the GA300GD-9AD, please scroll below.

Msgr. Tomáš Halík, "How to Interpret the Signs of the Times?"
Time: Mon Oct 23, 2017, 8:30AM - 4:30PM
Location: Room 1050, Jenkins Nanovic Halls
The Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study invites you to attend "How to Interpret the Signs of the Times?," a symposium with Msgr. Dr. Tomáš Halík, Professor of Philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Charles University (Czech Republic) and 2014 Templeton Prize Laureate.
Discerning the "signs of the time," God's speech in the events of history and interpretation of the events of contemporary history as God's message, was the task of Hebrew prophets and the disciples of Jesus. According to Vatican II, it is a permanent duty of the Church throughout history: "[T]he Church has always had the duty of scrutinizing the signs of the times and interpreting them by the light of the Gospel" (Gaudium et Spes, No. 4).
"How to Interpret the Signs of the Times?" is the second of three symposia focused on Msgr. Halík's project, "The Theological Hermeneutic of Contemporary History." These symposia bring together scholars from numerous disciplines, including history, philosophy, sociology, and theology, to discern the signs of the times by addressing the questions of where to find them, how to interpret them, and how best to respond to them. In this symposium, Msgr. Halik will address key foci in concert with University of Notre Dame and external faculty colleagues:
8:30 am — Introduction
9:00 am — Vatican II and Historical Context: Between Modernity and Postmodernity
10:30 am — Reflecting on the Most Significant Cultural Shifts Since Vatican II
1:15 pm — Christianity in a Secular or Postsecular Age?
2:45 pm — A Church for the Future: In Dialogue with Sociology and Theology?
4:00 pm — Concluding Remarks
Symposium presenters include, among others, Professors Ruth Abbey, John Cavadini, Rob Gimello, Slavica Jakelić, and Todd Walatka.
This symposium is open to all students, staff, faculty and members of the general public.

He also currently serves as president of the Christian Academy (since 1990) and vice-president of Council for Research in Values and Philosophy in Washington (2015). In 1992, Pope John Paul II appointed him advisor to the Pontifical Council for Dialogue with Non-Believers and in 2009, Pope Benedict XVI granted him the title of Monsignor – Honorary Prelate of His Holiness.

Platformers are a game genre that is notoriously hard to translate to mobile. Platformers require control accuracy that touchscreens simply can't offer yet. This is a big reason why endless runners have become so big on mobile, because it splits the platformer idea to control part of the movement for you. However, if you love platformers, endless runners don't really do the trick. There are some good platformers, like Gunman Clive and Bean Quest, and the latter now has a sequel for iOS called Bean Dreams.
Bean Dreams is from game maker Kumobius, which is one of the better game devs on mobile. The conceit of the Bean games is that it takes the endless runner idea and flips it around. Instead of a character that is constantly moving forward and you control the jumping, the Bean is constantly jumping and you control the movement. It's a control scheme that works well, and the game itself is polished and absolutely packed with charm.
Many liken the style to old-school Mario games on the SNES, but the game obviously also pulls inspiration from the early Sonic games. Each stage has the straightforward goal of getting to the end, but along the way there are gems to collect, baddies to kill, axolotls (Mexican salamanders) to save, and other new perks for things like beating a stage in a limited number of jumps.
If you enjoyed the original Bean Quest, you'll definitely find a lot more to love in Bean Dreams. The game is available right now for $2.99 on iOS. No word on when the game will be making its way to Android, but usually Kumobius doesn't take too long to get to Android.


Kidder, Orion Ussner: "Historicizing the Superhero. Alan Moore's Supreme and Warren Ellis/John Cassaday's Planetary." In: Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts 21.1 (2010), S. 77–96.
This article uses Brian McHale's theory of little narratives to demonstrate how Alan Moore et al.'s Supreme and Warren Ellis/John Cassaday's Planetary perform useful play for their audiences: denaturalizing and historicizing the superhero genre as well as exploding what Fredric Jameson calls "the reduction of time" by employing what Linda Hutcheon identifies as complicit critique. The central mode of Supreme and Planetary is self-reflexive; thus, they are metacomics that uses techniques akin to Hutcheon's notion of historiographical metafiction, although the histories in these comics are, of course, invented. By denaturalizing and historicizing the American comic-book superhero, these series reject two specific literary practices found in previous modes of superhero comics. Supreme and Planetary denaturalize the reduction of time and the hyper-violence-as-verisimilitude that plagued previous eras in superhero comics, but they retain the high-concept fantasy and even the hero-worship associated with superheroes; thus, they do useful play, performing an important task by, in part, giving the audience permission to indulge in a child-like sense of wonder.
