UK police step up security for first state funeral since 1965
10 September 2022 | 2:39 pm
As Britain prepares to stage its first state funeral in nearly six decades, security officials are planning what is expected to be the "biggest policing and protective operation" in UK history.
As Britain prepares to stage its first state funeral in nearly six decades, security officials are planning what is expected to be the "biggest policing and protective operation" in UK history.
Police are dusting off long-standing plans to keep safe attendees — including global political leaders and royalty — at Queen Elizabeth II's historic funeral, as well as the millions predicted to flock to London around the time of the event.
No date has been announced for the late queen's state funeral, which is the first since the service in 1965 for Winston Churchill, Britain's prime minister during World War II.

But it is expected to be held in Westminster Abbey in the heart of the capital on September 19.
Prior to that, her body is set to lie in state for four days in Westminster Hall, the oldest building on the UK Parliamentary estate, following a ceremonial procession through the streets of London.
The pomp-laden events, in particular the funeral, will require an array of elaborate security measures.
Hundreds of world leaders and dignitaries as well as millions of people are expected to descend on London.

They include US President Joe Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and leaders from countries where the British monarch is head of state or which are members of the 56-nation Commonwealth.
Japan's Emperor Naruhito will be among royalty from around the world set to attend the funeral, according to reports, in his first overseas trip since he ascended the Chrysanthemum throne in 2019 following his father's abdication.
"This will be probably the biggest policing and protective operation the UK has ever mounted," Nick Aldworth, former Counter Terrorism Policing National Coordinator, told The Independent outlet.
"It just takes one car, one person to do something abhorrent, and not only have you disrupted a constitutional event, but people will also be injured and killed."
– 'Comprehensive plan' –
Aldworth noted the ceremonial events would occur in a "very different threat world" compared to previous royal funerals, such as the Queen Mother's in 2002 and princess Diana's five years earlier.
Britain has been hit by numerous terror attacks in the last decade, including a spate of atrocities in London, Manchester, and other cities by jihadist extremists.
The current national threat level, set by the country's MI5 domestic security service and designed to give a broad indication of the likelihood of a terrorist attack, is "substantial".
That is in the middle of a five-tier ranking system rising from "low" to "critical".
London's Metropolitan police said Friday it had already begun deploying "well-rehearsed" plans for the official 10-day national mourning period, which will culminate in the landmark service for the country's longest-serving monarch.
"We will be keeping people safe with highly visible patrols across London," the force said.
"The public will see additional officers posted outside key locations, including transport hubs, royal parks, and outside royal residences in London."
The Met is coordinating its policing blueprint with the British Transport Police, which is responsible for the national transport network, and the City of London Police, which secures the so-called "Square Mile" financial district.
The Met's Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stuart Cundy said the "comprehensive policing plan" would be most visible in and around Westminster, which is home to parliament, the abbey, and Buckingham Palace.
– Disruption –
British police have experience in handling major events, including last year in Glasgow, when hundreds of world leaders attended the UN climate summit COP26.
In a sign of the days of disruption to come in the heart of the capital, numerous roads were closed Saturday for events related to the proclamation officially kickstarting the reign of the new king, Charles III.
Officers were also increasingly visible on the streets.
"A great number of police officers will be on duty during this period, to ensure the safety of those visiting London and to deter any potential criminality," Cundy added.
But fears have been raised over the Met's ability to cope with the huge crowds expected in the run-up to the funeral, with three Premier League football matches currently scheduled for next weekend in the capital, and other games elsewhere.
UK media reported a potential shortage of police could see fixtures called off in London and beyond, as officers are set to be redeployed en masse to the capital.
All football matches were cancelled this weekend as a mark of respect to the queen, though some other sporting events are going ahead.

Ostracised, sacked … and even arrested: the fate of whistleblowers at the UN
The Guardian – by Roger Hamilton-Martin
When a United Nations investigator reported the rape of a refugee in Sri Lanka, she did not expect the disclosure to force her into a decade-long legal battle with her employer.
Caroline Hunt-Matthes was ostracised and eventually ousted while on medical leave. She has still not secured redress after a decade fighting her case.
Her case was remarkable in duration but not in substance. Hunt-Matthes is by no means the first or only whistleblower to fall foul of the UN system. Indeed, her case highlights neatly one of the UN's dirtiest secrets: that its staff are reluctant to report abuses or corruption within the organisation for fear of losing their jobs.
"The bottom line is the UN is not a safe working environment at the minute," said Hunt-Matthes, who has left the UN and now works at a university in Geneva. "You can't report misconduct and be protected. What could be more serious than that?"
Figures obtained by the Government Accountability Project (GAP), which supports whistleblowers, reveal that the UN ethics office had received 447 approaches up to July 2014 from those alleging they have faced retaliation for exposing wrongdoing.
They completed reviews into between 113 and 135 of these cases, identifying prima-facie cases of retaliation in 14, and ultimately establishing there had been retaliation in just four cases – a statistic that is hardly encouraging to those who feel bound to report corruption, malpractice or sexual abuse.
"The percentage of whistleblowers who actually receive relief through this channel remains abysmally low," said Bea Edwards, the international director of GAP. "We're now working with UN whistleblowers who have simply resigned rather than endure such a protracted and complex internal process."
Two striking cases have hit the headlines in recent years. This year, a senior UN aid worker, Anders Kompass, was suspended for disclosing to prosecutors an internal report on the sexual abuse of children by French peacekeeping troops in the Central African Republic.
After a furious row over the treatment of Kompass, the secretary general, Ban Ki-moon, was ultimately forced to order an external inquiry into the handling of the affair. Two years earlier, the ethics office was found to have failed to protect another UN diplomat, James Wasserstrom, who was sacked and then detained by UN police after he raised suspicions in 2007 about corruption in the senior ranks of the UN mission in Kosovo (Unmik).
The Guardian spoke to a current UN employee who had blown the whistle on organisational malfeasance. "It is all window dressing," said the staff member, who wished to remain anonymous. "The offices within the UN that are supposed to protect staff members do the very opposite. They side with and report to management. For example, office of staff legal assistance and the ethics office, neither of which are independent. And you cannot appeal decisions of the supposedly independent ethics office because they are now considered 'recommendations'."
If the ethics office establishes a prima-facie case of retaliation against a staff member, an investigation is conducted by the UN's office for internal oversight services (OIOS). OIOS has been beset by problems in recent years, with staff complaining that it lacks the independence required for proper scrutiny.
Peter Gallo is a former OIOS investigator who left the UN in March. He said the office lacked independence, saying: "Management of OIOS has been riddled with cronyism, incompetence and corruption for the past five years." Gallo, like Hunt-Matthes, has tried to challenge in the UN's court the ethics office's decision not to consider him a genuine whistleblower.
"Nothing will change until there is real accountability in the organisation, and that will never happen unless and until there is a truly independent and separate agency established that is not part of the UN secretariat, but reports directly – and separately – to the member states."
In another example of the UN's failure to root out villains within its ranks, the Guardian revealed in July that a Russian aviation company, UTair, had been retained as a UN subcontractor in the Democratic Republic of the Congo despite evidence of sexual abuse at its base uncovered by OIOS investigators.
The OIOS report was kept quiet and marked "strictly confidential" and only became public when it was leaked to the Guardian. The March 2011 report made weak recommendations and UN officials ultimately decided not to sanction the Russian company.
Organisational accountability and transparency is a serious issue facing the next secretary-general, after Ban Ki-moon finishes his second term in 2016. David Kaye, UN special rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression, said that in democratic nation states, where voters are close to the government, there is a sense that whistleblowing can have a public role in holding government to account.
However, "there just isn't a public accountability mechanism" at the UN, according to Kaye. "There is not enough clarity about what is happening in the UN system and about how these cases get resolved." As a result, he said, management was less concerned with being caught out. "That reduces their incentives to do the right thing. There is all sorts of opacity which makes it easy for an employee to suffer retaliation."
Despite recent reforms to improve transparency and accountability, the organisation remains impervious to public scrutiny, with no established mechanism for freedom of information – a right which more than 100 governments around the world have enshrined in law, and is openly advocated by UN bodies such as Unesco.
"It's a really broad problem," said Kaye. "It's not just a problem of not having a freedom of information law so that journalists and citizens around the world can get information, it's a broad structural problem. It's a threat to UN employees and international civil servants, and it's a threat to efficiency and accountability in the UN system."
Yet, it is not just investigative staff who struggle with challenging the organisation over malfeasance. Aicha Elbasri was a UN spokesperson in Darfur where she saw first-hand how the UN was obscuring the reality of atrocities being committed against Darfuris, and was failing to protect civilians. The former spokesperson ended her long career with the UN before leaking thousands of documents regarding UN operations in Darfur to Foreign Policy magazine.
"My case shows how dysfunctional the system is. I had no energy or faith in pursuing this system-wide, and I paid a high cost for that," Elbasri said.
"I had a choice to make. Because the misconduct wasn't any regular misconduct – it was about crimes against millions of people, it was the fate of a nation, these were no regular crimes, I felt I could no longer work with the UN while I had that on my conscience. I had basically either to keep quiet or leave. I know for sure that UN doesn't protect whistleblowers.
"Whistleblowers are basically left to decide whether to fight the entire system while working there, or just keep quiet. So most of the time they just keep quiet … civil servants become accomplices to crimes in order to save their jobs," said Elbasri.

Evil reigns supreme at the moment, and it grows stronger as idiots continue to stare into the Jew-TV for their daily brainwashing supplement.
Anyone who tries to do anything decent is ostracized, attacked, and arrested, and the Satanic Jewish empire we're trapped in cannot tolerate someone trying to squeeze a little truth into their world of deception.
It's not about religion. It's about good and evil, which exists in the secular world, too, but the twisted, psychotic, and supremacist religion known as Judaism knows no difference between the two.
USMC-0351 says:
So true J.R., but how can these poor civil servants believe that they are not complicit by staying quiet? They can quit, they choose to stay quiet and take the money. As for the televisual programmer, well sometimes the name says it all.
"She has still not secured redress after a decade fighting her case."
This is one of those sheeple DETERMINED to stay asleep.
Matrix 'programming' runs very deep in some. Can't see the forest for the trees.

Q: Would like to add different themes to my application Basically, I'm making a basic note taking app and would like to add different color options, for an example, a light version and dark version for easier viewing by the user. I plan to give it to a few friends but no one can agree on a color so I thought I'd just make it customizeable by the user via small buttons.
I'm not very experienced however and was wondering how I'd go about doing this?

A: You could loop through all the controls and change their .BackColor:
private void ChangeTheme_btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ChangeTheme(this.Controls, Color.Aqua);
}

private void ChangeTheme(Control.ControlCollection controls, Color color)
{
    foreach (Control control in controls)
    {
        if (control.HasChildren)
        {
            // Recursively loop through the child controls
            ChangeTheme(control.Controls, color);
        }
        else
        {
            if (control is TextBox textBox)
            {
                textBox.BackColor = color;
            }
            else if (control is Button button)
            {
                button.BackColor = color;
            }
            // Example (remove this if you are not using Guna UI)
            else if (control is Guna.UI2.WinForms.Guna2Button gBbutton)
            {
                gBbutton.FillColor = color;
            }
        }
    }
}

You could set a separate color to each type of control, and also change other properties. For example, if you are using Guna UI, then you may need to set the .FillColor instead of the .BackColor.
If you have multiple forms, you can do:
private void MyForm1_form_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Add all the controls to the list
    foreach (Control item in MyForm1.instance.Controls)
    {
        listOfAllFormControls.Add(item);
    }
    foreach (Control item in MyForm2.instance.Controls)
    {
        listOfAllFormControls.Add(item);
    }
}

private void ChangeTheme_btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SetColorThemeToLight(listOfAllFormControls);
}

private readonly List<Control> listOfAllFormControls = new List<Control>();

private void SetColorThemeToLight(List<Control> list)
{
    foreach (Control control in list)
    {
        if (control.HasChildren)
        {
            // Recursively loop through the child controls
            List<Control> controlList = new List<Control>();
            foreach (Control item in control.Controls)
            {
                controlList.Add(item);
            }
            SetColorThemeToLight(controlList);
        }
        else
        {
            switch (control)
            {
                case TextBox textBox:
                    textBox.BackColor = Color.Blue;
                    break;

                case Button button:
                    button.BackColor = Color.Blue;
                    break;

                // Example (remove this if you are not using Guna UI)
                case Guna.UI2.WinForms.Guna2Button gButton:
                    gButton.BackColor = Color.Blue;
                    break;
            }
        }
    }
}

I also used a switch case instead
IF YOU ARE USING GUNA UI
This is only needed if you are using Guna:
Some Guna controls have a child by default, which doesn't work well with the code above. For example, the Guna2RadioButton contains a child control called Guna2CustomRadioButton.
So here's the updated code if you are using Guna:
private static void SetColorThemeToDark(List<Control> list)
{
    foreach (Control control in list)
    {
        bool pass = false;
        if (Control.HasChildren)
        {
            // Recursively loop through the child controls
            List<Control> childList = new List<Control>();
            foreach (Control item in control.Controls)
            {
                childList.Add(item);
            }
            SetColorThemeToDark(childList);
            pass = true;
        }
        if (!control.HasChildren || pass)
        {
            switch (control)
            {
                case Button button:
                    button.BackColor = Color.Red;
                    button.ForeColor = Color.White;
                    break;

                case Label label:
                    label.BackColor = Color.Red;
                    break;

                case Guna.UI2.WinForms.Guna2Button guna2Button:
                    guna2Button.FillColor = Color.Red;
            }
        }
    }
}

Solar energy, a growing part of NSW's energy mix
NSW is a leader in the development of large-scale solar projects. These solar farms support jobs and investment in regional NSW, help to diversify the State's energy mix and drive down costs for future large-scale solar developments.
There are 16 major operating large-scale solar farms in NSW. Solar farms use the same technology as rooftop solar systems, but on a larger scale.
Operating Solar Farms
Beryl Solar Farm 87
Bomen Solar Farm 100
Broken Hill Solar Plant 53
Coleambally Solar Farm 150
Dubbo Solar Hub 15
Finley Solar Farm 162
Goonumbla Solar Farm 70
Griffith Solar Farm 36
Gullen Solar Farm 10
Limondale Solar Farm Stage 1 29
Manildra Solar Farm 46
Moree Solar Farm 56
Narromine Solar Farm (Dubbo Solar Hub) 11
Nyngan Solar Plant 102
Parkes Solar Farm 66
White Rock Solar Farm 20
The share of solar and wind in NSW's energy mix has more than DOUBLED from 5% in 2015 to 12% in 2019.
*as of June 2020
NSW households and businesses are also seeing the benefits of solar.
This graph shows the strong growth of solar across all scales from rooftops all the way to solar farms connecting to the electricity grid.
Types of solar energy
Solar energy is generated by using particles of light (photons) as separate sunlight particles or in wave-mode. Solar photovoltaic (PV) cells convert the energy inside the particle directly into electricity.
Solar thermal technologies on the other hand use the wave-like nature of sunlight to create heat. Concentrated solar thermal (CST) power systems focus sunlight on a single point. The heat energy captured can be stored in water, air, or molten salts and then converted to electricity as required.
The future of solar energy in NSW
By 2038, the Australian Energy Market Operator has projected that the total installed capacity of PV systems in NSW will be:
6,070 MW for residential (less than 10 kW capacity)
2,003 MW for businesses (greater than 10 kW capacity).
Solar PV systems have become significantly cheaper in recent years, increasing in popularity from small-scale home rooftop systems to large-scale solar projects. Concentrated solar thermal systems can be installed with energy storage systems.
The development of battery storage technologies is expected to play an important role in growing solar energy.
According to the International Energy Agency, solar energy is the most abundant energy resource on earth, with about 885 million terawatt hours (TWh) reaching the surface of the planet every year.
Australia has the highest average solar radiation per square metre of any continent in the world. With excellent solar resources and established electricity infrastructure, NSW is an attractive opportunity for solar farm developers.
Concentrated solar thermal
While solar hot water systems are commonly used, producing electricity from concentrated solar thermal energy is still in its early stages in Australia. Currently, the CSIRO's solar research thermal hub in Newcastle is Australia's largest solar thermal research facility. The Jemalong Concentrated Solar Power Pilot Plant, which manages innovative heat transfer and storage technology, is under construction near Forbes.
Assessing large-scale solar projects in NSW
Large-Scale Solar Energy Guideline
The aim of the Large-Scale Solar Energy Guideline is to provide the community, industry, applicants and regulators with information on the planning framework for the assessment and approval of State-significant large-scale solar energy.
Large-scale solar projects in NSW are subject to planning controls and assessment criteria. The total capital value of the project generally determines which authoritative body will approve the development application.
In general, projects with a capital value of:
less than $5 million are assessed and approved by the local council(s)
between $5-30 million are assessed by the local council(s), and approved by the relevant Regional Planning Panel
more than $30 million (or $10 million if in an environmentally sensitive area) are classified as State significant developments and assessed by the NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (DPIE).
For State significant solar developments, the planning process requires the applicant to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) that details potential environment, social and economic impacts and proposed management and mitigation measures.
Key project considerations
Most large-scale solar projects in NSW are located in regional areas as these areas have strong solar resources and availability of land. Potential land use conflicts between existing agricultural land uses in these areas and solar energy development is a key issue that typically requires detailed assessment in the planning process.
The Large-Scale Solar Energy Guideline recommends that large-scale solar energy development applicants consider the location and nature of important agricultural lands, including Biophysical Strategic Agricultural Land (BSAL), irrigated cropping land and land capability classes 1, 2 and 3 in the site selection and design process. The guideline also recommends that consideration be given to any significant fragmentation or displacement of agricultural industries and any cumulative impacts of multiple developments.
These constraints do not preclude the development of large-scale solar energy developments on agricultural land, however, they do indicate issues which may exist and that applicants should carefully consider and address to maintain compatibility of solar development with agricultural land.
The impact of increased traffic is generally limited to the construction of solar farms, with activities like the haulage of components and materials to the site and contractor and employee movements. This may temporarily affect local traffic, but these movements are typically confined to standard hours of construction and the solar farm must repair any damage to the roads. These impacts are managed in consultation with the Transport for NSW, local councils and landholders. They also form part of any EIS and include measures to reduce risk and ensure safety.
Photovoltaic panels are designed to maximise efficiency, absorb sunlight and convert it to electricity, which means they're designed to reflect as little light as possible. Usually, it's around 2% of the light received. In fact, the glare from panels is significantly less than that from bodies of water. Where appropriate, planning approvals may include requirements for vegetation buffers to help minimise visual impacts.
The Large-Scale Solar Energy Guideline recommends solar farms be located in areas that minimise the need for clearing of native vegetation. Re-planting is an option if clearing is unavoidable. Any EIS will examine the individual circumstances of a solar farm proposal and its effect on the surrounding environment, including potential impacts on native vegetation, habitat of threatened species or ecological communities.
Aboriginal cultural heritage
Any likely impacts on cultural and archaeological objects, places and heritage (including Aboriginal objects and places) will be assessed through the planning process, and the local Aboriginal community and relevant government agencies will be consulted if impacts are expected.
Solar farms generally emit minimal noise. Potential sources of noise include inverters, transformers and cooling fans used for temperature regulation. These are typically contained inside buildings in the middle of the development to reduce noise to the surrounding environment. Noise during the construction and operation of solar farms is assessed in the EIS and considered in the planning process.
Solar farms typically have a low carbon footprint. They don't emit pollution or produce emissions during plant operation and they don't use fossil‐fuel resources. Large-scale projects usually have a life of around 25 years.
Depending on the type of solar panel used the energy payback will be between 2 and 3 years. The Nyngan Solar Plant, for example, will supply approximately 231,000 MW hours of electricity per year, avoiding some 218,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions (carbon dioxide equivalent) annually.
Solar farms usually last around 25 to 30 years. If a site is to be decommissioned it must be returned to its pre-existing condition. All infrastructure (above and below ground) is removed so agricultural activities or other land uses can resume.
The assessment process requires the applicant of the project to engage in detailed consultation with affected landowners surrounding the development, as well as the local community and council.
The EIS must describe how this consultation was carried out, identify any issues raised and explain how they have been addressed.
Largely, community support for solar energy initiatives is positive. The NSW Government's Community Attitudes to Renewable Energy survey (PDF 2.6MB) found overwhelming support for the use of renewable energy across the state, including 89% of respondents supporting the construction of solar farms in NSW.
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency also commissioned independent research in 2015, which showed strong support for solar farms and recommended best practice for community consultation guidelines.
Solar farms offer a range of additional social and economic benefits, while helping to meet NSW energy needs.
Importantly, solar farms drive investment and growth in regional NSW, which can lead to:
employment opportunities during construction, including engagement of local contractors and materials and service providers
long term local employment opportunities over the life of the project
improvements in local infrastructure
education and training of contractors and local residents
reduced greenhouse gas emissions
increased energy security through a more diverse energy mix
rent received by local landowners from the developer.

Kamp tawanan wanita (1983)

... aka: War Victims
... aka: War Victims of Camp Tawanan Wanita
... aka: Women's Prison Camp
Jopi Burnama
I've always defended controversial films like SALO (1975) and MEN BEHIND THE SUN (1988) because I genuinely think they have something important to say. Sure, they could conceivably be much more subtle and still get the same points across, but would those points have the same gut punch of an impact? Probably not. Though some puritanical critics out there would like to state otherwise, sometimes going the graphic route is absolutely the right way to go, especially when you don't have such uplifting things to say about the human race and are aiming to elicit disgust and anger from your audience. Let's face it, subtlety is lost on a lot of people, so sometimes you're better off being explicit. The controversy films like SALO stir up will entice people to see them. The bursts of depravity and violence will cause an immediate reaction. And because the film has implanted uncomfortable thoughts and images in the viewers mind, it will drive people onto the internet looking to affirm their opinion on the film, whether it be positive or negative. Either way, the viewer is almost certainly going to learn about the director's *intentions* in the process. Whether or not they feel the filmmaker has made a good film, or even care about about their opinion on certain subjects is in the first place, is irrelevant. The message has still been delivered.
So what does all that have to do with an exploitative low-budget women-in-prison flick from Indonesia? Simple. Like the two much more famous films I mentioned, it amps up the sadism and violence levels to hammer home its theme. In this case, the theme happens to be 'war sucks.' Unlike many other w-i-p films from the 80s (such as the same year's famously sleazy CHAINED HEAT), this strives for more than just providing cheap thrills. Sure, it provides those too, but its pretensions are front-and-center right from the opening narrated monologue: War is a thrilling and glorious thing only to those who have never experienced it in reality. Those who have never fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded, or the cries of innocent women and children. War is a barbarian atrocity which reduces all mankind to its lowest animal state. War is misery, despair, hunger, suffering and death cloaked in a shabby disguise of honor and courage. War dehumanizes all; the victor as well as the victim. It is a visitation of hell upon Earth.
While this isn't exactly new territory and it's not always well-executed, I do at least see where they were trying to go with this. And I truly hate slamming sincere, well-intended movies, especially ones where negligible English-language dubbing clearly detracts from the overall effect. With that factored in, I'm giving this a slightly higher rating than some may think it deserves.
Things center around a female freedom fighter named Amelia (Marisa Haque), who witnesses her husband being gunned down, is captured by the Japanese Imperial Army and is thrown into a brutal P.O.W. camp, where she and the other female inmates undergo the usual tortures before the obligatory revolt and escape. The film is violent, bloody and packed with sadistic torture. When Amelia first arrives at the camp she's pregnant. They beat her, strip her naked and force her to ride a donkey around the camp in the buff until she miscarries her baby. She and others undergo constant beatings, are fed "slop," kicked in the shins, forced to do slave labor and are routinely raped, tortured and killed. Well, all except our heroine. She manages to get away with being mouthy and defiant, physically fighting with her captors and helping to stage breakouts, while the extras get filled with lead for simply looking at the guards the wrong way.
The girls plot a daring escape that involves finding out why two of the guards are nicknamed "The Stallion" and "The Love Machine." The attempt is botched, leading to dozens of women being shot, blown up, electrocuted and, in one instance, being eaten by a snake! The ones who don't die are dragged back to camp and tortured. They're whipped, beat, strapped to some contraption that quickly spins them around, forced to stand on blocks of ice, are burned with a torch and some are hung. There's also several instances of hara-kiri, an outbreak of malaria and "sun torture," where the ladies are forced to stand outside all day and are refused water.
Amelia's pal on the inside is Siti, whose father is planning to raid the camp's ammunitions surplus and save her and the others while they're at it. There's another woman named Ita who's jealous of Amelia, but other than that the female prisoners aren't well-definited (if at all). The film concentrates as much time on the mostly-evil male guards than it does on the ladies. Lieutenant Nakamura (Boy Tirayoh), camp commandant, is the only one who seems to have anything of a conscience left. To champion for better treatment of the ladies, he goes to his superior and is informed that women are "prizes of war" and that "In war, the only morality is patriotism." Nakamura eventually falls for Amelia and knocks her up, leading up to an predictably tragic ending.
As much as I appreciate what this movie has to say about how minds of once-good and decent people are warped by war, I've always found it a bit counterproductive how so many anti-war movies resort to exciting action setpieces at the finale. We're told that there are no winners in war and to stop glorifying it all... So why wrap it up with thrilling combat action between the 'good guys' and the 'bad guys...' and screams of "Freedom!" ringing out from all the shots of stuff blowing up real good. The last shot of the film is an interesting one; a Japanese flag is lowered and an Indonesian one is raised. "The Beginning" then appears over top. (Clearly alluding to the Japanese armies invading lesser-developed Southeast Asian countries during wartime.)
Leading lady Haque has had a very full and interesting life. Educated in civil law and education in her home country, she also attended Ohio University in Athens, Ohio (also the alma mater of yours truly) at one point to study film and television. She worked as a model and an assistant lawyer in between acting gigs and went on to produce and direct feature films and TV shows. In 2004, she was elected to Indonesian Parliament as a member of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle. Nowadays, she's still involved in the entertainment industry, teaches hearing impaired children and is a guest lecturer.
Released theatrically by Atlas International. The VHS I watched was from the Dutch company Van Gils Video, who have, for some moronic reason, blurred out all of the nudity (though all of the violence seems intact).

Early 80s slashmania in the U.S. and Canada ended up eventually infecting other countries. This one is from Brazil and was clearly influenced by the hundred or so North American slashers saturating the market at that time. There's a good reason you've probably never heard of it before. It's simply not that good. It also forgets one crucial element that makes these kind of films tick: blood. For the most part slashers are typically lacking in the plot department, so the more loaded down with gore they are, the better they usually are. Throw in some nudity and provide a high body count and you've usually got yourself some fine brainless entertainment for the evening. Have a sense of humor about how tired and overworked the subgenre is, and even better. While Shock doesn't bother with much of a plot itself, and throws in one gratuitous sex scene (which is a bit more graphic than what's found in most others of its type), it completely forgets about the red stuff. All of the kills are dull and repetitive. Everyone (aside from an unfortunate rat) is... strangled. Even worse, half of the movie is spent in one damn room!
At a São Paulo hot spot, the patrons prove that the fashions, hairstyles and music were just as bad in Brazil in the 80s as they were up North. Twenty-minutes slowly pass and all we've basically gotten to see so far is people dancing horribly to a lame rock band. At some point, the action relocates to someone's home and we're briefly introduced to three couples. Shy, virginal teenager Sara (Mayara Magri) isn't wanting to put out for her boyfriend Gil (Taumaturgo Ferriera). He tries to convince her with the usual "sex is natural" speech, but it doesn't fly for the thick-eyebrowed prude. Gil smokes a joint and passes out. Suddenly, Sara gets in the mood, starts touching herself and then can't wake her man up (even offering him "fellagio" doesn't help). Interestingly, the film bucks the moral code found in some of these other films by making the most virtuous girl one of the first victims. Her boyfriend soon follows suit. As does another woman who gets strangled in her car.
The other two couples consist of teens Stefana (Aldine Muller) and Lucas (Kiko Guerra), who *do* get to have sex, and Zamor (Elias Andreato), who is (I think) the owner of the nightclub and his girlfriend Lara (Claudia Alencar), a singer in the band we saw perform. [For the record, don't quote me on any of these character names; the film is in Portuguese and was never dubbed or subbed, plus the credits were too blurry to read...] After Lara discovers the body of her friend in the closet, the four barricade themselves in a bedroom upstairs. There they sit, bicker, wonder who the killer could be and behave like they're going crazy simply by sitting in a room for a few hours. The killer makes a ham sandwich and tries to annoy them by beating on the drums over and over again. Instead of just waiting it out in the room until morning, one of the guys attempts to leave and get the police. He doesn't come back and the police never show up. The other guy then goes downstairs for some idiotic reason and is easily killed whil a strobe light flickers. The psycho then heads upstairs where the two remaining girls are and discovers that... they've left the door wide open for him.
Now I must admit, I did like the ending, but it's not good enough to justify sitting through the rest of this bore to get to it. There about about 50 shots of the killer's black boots walking around, but we never actually get to see him. And I can't say that I really enjoyed seeing a real rat getting stabbed with a butcher knife, either. All in all, it falls pretty low on the slasher totem pole. Leg warmers, sunglasses at night and ripped off-the-shoulder sweatshirts don't even help matters.
It was never released in America... and I seriously doubt it ever WILL be.
★1/2

The Miami Marlins farm system is just not very good. While we don't formally rank them, if we did, they would be in the bottom five in all of baseball. While we can blame some of the regression on questionable trades, most of it has been because of promotions; promotions that have helped the big league club over the past two years. These players include Jose Fernandez, J.T. Realmuto, Christian Yelich, and Marcel Ozuna. That's four really good players!
Topping the Marlins list this year is 2014 first round draft choice, Tyler Kolek. I know easy way to say it, Kolek is not the same pitcher the Marlins draft two years ago. He's still going to be a major leaguer, but his ceiling is now a number three.
While there's not a lot in the farm system to help the major league club, things could change over the winter. The Marlins have been known to make big and bold moves. Unless they dip into free agency in a big way, the only other approach is to trade and build from within. I'm guessing they go with the latter.
1. Tyler Kolek (RHP)
2016 Age: 20 Ceiling: #3 starter
Ht: 6-5 Weight: 260 Bats: Right Throws: Right ETA: 2018
Year Class IP H ER HR BB/9 K/9 ERA WHIP
2015 A 108.2 108 55 7 5.05 6.71 4.56 1.56
I never saw Tyler Kolek pitch in high school, but I read, like many of you read about his 100 MPH fastball. I read one publication that comp'd him to a young Roger Clemens. By the way, never believe that hype and never, ever, put a hall of famer label on a 17-year-old kid. Anyway, the Marlins were sold and drafted him second overall in front of Carlos Rodon, Kyle Schwarber, Aaron Nola, Michael Conforto, and Trea Turner – who all have already contributed to the big leagues. It's easy to play arm-chair quarterback and we are doing that, but after 33 professional starts, a 4.61 ERA, a 6.82 K/9 and a 5.10 BB/9, the Marlins can't be feeling too good about their decision.
Scouting Report: Stats are stats and they need to be put into context, particularly when you are trying to evaluate players in the lower levels of the minor leagues. However, when you combine a 6.82 K/9 and a 5.10 BB/9 with a pitcher who reportedly threw 100 MPH two years ago and is now throwing 93 to 95 (T96), it's time to be concerned. When I saw Kolek in mid-August, that was what I had him on my gun. Plus, the fastball was straight with little life and the Lakewood BlueClaws were squaring it pretty well. His secondary pitches were average with his slurvy breaking pitch better than his change up. He did strikeout three batters when I saw him, two on his breaking pitch and one on his fastball, but he also gave up 9 hits in five innings.
What I did like about Kolek was his size. He's a big dude. Listed at 6-foot-5 and 260 pounds, he has the size to log big innings in the major leagues. Plus, let's face it, he throws hard – 93 to 95 MPH is nothing to sneeze at and despite his fastball being a little flat, he can still bring it. Remember, arsenals can improve, new pitches can be learned (I would love to see the Marlins add a two-seamer), so all is not lost. That said, he no longer has a top-of-the-rotation ceiling but instead the ceiling has moved to a number three.
Fantasy Impact: If you drafted Kolek in a Dynasty League, you have to see how things will play out. If you can get 80 cents on the dollar, I would be selling. Fifty cents on the dollar and the answer is no. Kolek is still young, he's big and throws hard. Those are three very valuable elements in a minor league player. However, he's not a one, not a two…I just hope he's a number three and not a reliever.
2. Josh Naylor (1B)
2016 Age: 19 Ceiling: Solid Reg
Ht: 6-1 Weight: 225 Bats: Left Throws: Left ETA: 2018-19
Year Class AB R HR RBI SB AVG OBP CT% BB% BABIP
2015 R 98 8 1 16 25 .327 .352 88.8 3.8 .352
It's not often a team selects a first baseman in the first round, but that's exactly what the Marlins did with Josh Naylor in the 2015 first year player draft. They clearly believe in the bat, particularly his plus raw power that he generates from his 6-foot-1, 225 pound frame. There is some worry about his weight as you don't usually see teenage baseball players at 225 pounds.
After signing at $2.2 million dollar signing bonus, the Marlins assigned him to the Gulf Coast League where he played well in his 25 games, batting .327 with a .418 slugging percentage.
Scouting Report: Despite being selected as the 12th pick in the draft, Naylor skills are very raw. He does have a big left-handed swing that generates plus raw power but it's power generated more from his strength and torque than premium bat speed. There is also a lot of length in his swing and therefore he is likely to generate plenty of strikeouts. What we don't know is what type of approach he will have at the plate. His 98 at-bats in Rookie League is just not enough to get a read on that skill, however, he did only walked four times.
Fantasy Impact: There is a ton of raw power that could translate into big power for your fantasy team. However, Naylor is going to have to prove that he can control the strike zone in order to get to his power. He's a first base only prospect which means he's going to have to hit with power in order to make it. He's worth a flier in a Dynasty League with 300 minor league slots but fantasy owners will need to be patient.
3. Brian Anderson (3B)
2015 A+ 477 50 8 62 2 .235 .304 77.1 7.5 .287
Signed in the third round of the 2014 first year player draft, Brian Anderson struggled upon his promotion to High-A this year. In 132 games, he batted only .235 but it did come with a below-average .287 BABIP. He added eight home runs and in the Florida State League, that's actually a slightly above average total.
Scouting Report: There's a lot to like with Brian Anderson. The swing is solid with good bat speed and he is has enough physicality to project to average, if not more power. It was disappointing that he didn't hit better this year, but again his BABIP played a role. He did make good contact at 78% and showed good plate discipline as he walked 7.5% of the time he came to the plate. Both stats point to upside in his .235 batting average with a .260/.330 projection not out of the question.
The Marlins will likely start Anderson in Double-A to begin the 2016 season and with Martin Prado only signed through the end of the year, it could open up playing time for Anderson in 2017. While he doesn't have star potential, he has enough skills to get regular at-bats at the big league level.
Fantasy Impact: Brian Anderson has the skills to post a .260 batting average with a possibility of 15 to 20 home runs. That should make him a serviceable corner infielder for your fantasy team or a third base option in deeper leagues.
4. Jarlin Garcia (LHP)
2015 A+,AA 133.2 134 53 13 2.69 7.00 3.57 1.30
Signed out of the Dominican Republic in 2010, Jarlin Garcia has been making slow and steady progress through the Marlins system. In 2015, he split time between High-A and Double-A and pitched well. In 25 starts, he posted a 3.57 ERA while striking out 104 and walking only 40. He was more hittable than you like to see, giving up over a hit per inning.
Scouting Report: Garcia has a solid arsenal that is highlighted by his fastball that sits 91 to 93 MPH (T95). Because of his ability to throw it for strikes, the pitch plays up a grade. When his curve ball is on, it can be a real weapon. However, Garcia can lose the feel for it from game to game, or even inning to inning, and when he does, it comes in flat and can be hittable. When on, the pitch has great downer action and can fool both arm and glove-side batters.
Garcia pitches from a high three-quarters delivery with clean mechanics. He's able to repeat his delivery quite well and that is leading to his ability to throw strikes. He does pitch up in the zone and will likely always be a little homer-prone.
Fantasy Impact: Lefties who can hit 95 MPH always need to be on the radar of fantasy owners. Garcia has good stuff but until he can harness his curve ball, will not provide consistent results. The ceiling is a number three starter with seven strikeouts per nine. However, a more realistic ceiling is a number four or five starter.
5. Brett Lilek (LHP)
Ht: 6-4 Weight: 195 Bats: Left Throws: Left ETA: 2018
2015 SS 35.0 30 13 1 1.80 11.06 3.34 1.06
Brett Lilek was taken in the second round of the 2015 first year player draft and hit the ground running in the New York Penn League. In 10 starts, he struck out 43 while walking only 7. As is typical in short season ball, particularly for college pitchers who have logged big innings, Lilek was limited to around three innings per outing. However, the Marlins did let him go five innings in two starts towards the end of the season, where he was very impressive.
Scouting Report: At 6-foot-4 and 195 pounds, Lilek has a great pitchers body. The delivery from the left side is smooth with great balance. The extension to the plate is not great but he's able to repeat his delivery and his 1.80 walk-per-nine rate could be a harbinger of good things to come.
Lilek's arsenal is solid but lacks a plus offering. His fastball sits 89 to 92 MPH but if the Marlins can improve his extension to the plate, the pitch could move up a grade. He also throws a curve ball and slider with the curve being the better of the two pitches.
Overall, the package gives Lilek a ceiling of a number four starter with a realistic ceiling of a number five.
Fantasy Impact: Lilek should be on Dynasty League owner's radar. He has decent stuff but knows how to pitch and can throw strikes. Plus, there is a potential for him to add a mile or two on his fastball and if that happens, the calculus could change very quickly.
6. Kendry Flores (RHP)
2016 Age: 24 Ceiling: #4/#5 starter
2015 A+,AA, AAA 118.0 83 30 6 2.21 6.48 2.29 0.95
Kendry Flores was signed out of the Dominican Republic as a 16-year-old in 2008 by the Giants and was traded last December for Casey McGehee. He's been making slow and steady progress through the minor leagues that culminated in six relief appearances and one start for Miami this year. He has excellent control with a 2.18 walk-per-nine rate in 106 career starts in the minor leagues. He's more command and control over stuff, but has the polish to be a back-of-the-rotation starter in the major leagues or at worse, a middle reliever.
Scouting Report: Flores has a large arsenal of pitches but nothing that grades out as plus. He throws a two and four seam fastball, three breaking pitches (curve, slider, and cutter), and a change-up. His best pitch is his change-up that he throws with a nice 10 MPH separation from his four-seamer with good deception. His four seam fastball is an average pitch that sits 91 to 92 MPH (T93) and comes in fairly flat to hitters. He could be homer prone, particularly in smaller ballparks as was evidence by the 14 home runs he gave up in the Cal League in 2014.
Flores has very simple and smooth mechanics and that allows him to pound the strike zone with regularity. At 175 pounds, there is still hope that he could add some velocity as he fills out and if he does, that could change the ceiling for him.
Fantasy Impact: Flores could see time in the Marlins rotation next year and could be an interesting option for NL Only Leagues. The home park is great and the offense should be better next year for the Marlins, so there is a chance that Flores could post league average ratios with six to seven strikeouts per nine.
7. Stone Garrett (OF)
2015 SS 222 36 11 46 8 .297 .352 73.0 7.7 .355
Stone Garrett was drafted in the eighth round of the 2014 first year player draft. He got off to a very slow start last year, posting a .539 OPS in 40 games in the Gulf Coast League without showing off his plus raw power. Things started to come together this year as he slashed .297/.352/.581 in the New York Penn League where he pounded 11 home runs.
Scouting Report: Garrett is a big strong kid at 6-foot-2 and 195 pounds with plus raw power. The swing can get long and therefore swing and miss will likely always be part of the equation. While he did have a respectable 73% contact rate this year that is likely to regress as he plays against stronger competition.
While the Marlins have been playing Garrett in center field, he profiles better as a corner outfield. He has average speed but doesn't have a quick first step. He stole eight of 13 bases this year and should be good for 8 to 12 bags annually early in his career.
Fantasy Impact: Garrett is an intriguing player for deep Dynasty League owners. He has 20 future home run potential with the chance to steal double digit stolen bases. However, that will likely come with a challenging batting average. However, if he can cut down on his strikeouts and continue to improve his approach, there could be something there.
8. K.J. Woods (1B)
2016 Age: 20 Ceiling: 2nd Div
Ht: 6-3 Weight: 230 Bats: Left Throws: Right ETA: 2017-18
2015 A 383 53 18 58 1 .277 .364 65.3 10.3 .376
Signed in the fourth round of the 2013 draft, K.J. Woods spent two years in the Gulf Coast League (GCL) before finally be assigned to a full season affiliate this year. He did well, showing off his plus power by hitting 18 home runs which was good for third most in the league. When you consider that at 19-years-old, he was one of the youngest players in the league, it makes it even that more impressive.
Scouting Report: At 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds, Woods is a big boy. Drafted as an outfielder, the Marlins moved him to first this year and that move will be a lot of pressure on his bat. His carrying too is his plus raw power that is born out of strength and leverage, which leads to a very long swing and a ton of swing and miss. In 383 at-bats, he posted a 30.3% strikeout rate. He does have a good knowledge of the strike zone and showed that by walking 10% of the time.
Fantasy Impact: Woods is your classic three true outcome player. He'll hit a lot of home runs, strikeout a lot, and assuming he continues to work on his plate discipline, walk a lot. So the question is will he hit enough to get to his power. He's still very young, but there is a lot of work left to do before we can put a high likelihood on that prediction. He can be ignored in all but the deepest of Dynasty Leagues.
9. Austin Dean (OF)
2015 A+ 519 67 5 52 18 .268 .318 85.4 6.7 .299
Austin Dean was signed in the fourth round of the 2012 first year player draft out of Klein Collins High School in Texas. The Marlins have been moving Dean slowly through the system and he's been responding. In 136 games in the Florida State League this year, he was able to control the strike zone well with 76 strikeouts and 39 walks over 578 plate appearances. He also added five home runs and 18 stolen bases but was also caught 10 times.
Scouting Report: Dean has a quick and compact swing with plenty of bat speed. His current swing mechanics point to more doubles power than over-the-fence power, but he has enough physicality to eventually change that. Dean also has average foot speed but clearly needs to work on his base stealing ability as 18 stolen bases in 28 attempts will not cut it as he moves to the upper minors.
Dean's contact rate has improved since he was drafted as has his ability to control the strike zone. The upside could be a second division starter with 12 to 15 home runs with a .260 batting average and a .320 on-base percentage.
Fantasy Impact: Dean is a player to be monitored in all Dynasty Leagues. If the hit tool continues to develop, he could be rosterable in Dynasty Leagues with 300 or more minor league players.
10. Trevor Williams (RHP)
2015 AA,AAA 131.0 141 56 9 2.95 6.94 3.85 1.40
At 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds, Trevor Williams is a strong, solid right-handed pitcher that is getting very close to making his debut in the major leagues. Drafted as a college junior out of Arizona State, he has pitched well in his three years in the minor leagues, posting a 3.35 ERA in 63 games. While he lacks a quality out pitch, he knows how to pitch and has a chance to be a number five starter in the major leagues.
Scouting Report: Williams pitches with an average fastball that sits 88 to 91 MPH (T94). The pitch does play up as he's able to throw it for strikes while pitching in bottom half of the zone. His best secondary pitch is his curve ball. He shows a feel for a change-up and just needs more time with the pitch to make it an average offering.
There is definite effort in Williams delivery but he gets good extension and momentum to the plate. He is able to repeat his deliver which is leading to his excellent career 2.50 walk-per-nine rate.
Fantasy Impact: Williams should see time in the major leagues in 2016 and therefore should be on all fantasy owner's radar. The question is…will he be any good? Yeah, he should be alright with a chance for league average ratios and six to seven strikeouts per nine. With his stuff, he should get a ton of ground balls and that should reduce the likelihood of big blowup innings.
2016 Emerging Prospect
Anfernee Seymour (2B)
Anfernee Seymour's carrying tool is double-plus speed which he demonstrated by stealing 29 of 35 bases in the New York Penn League. As a hitter, Seymour has a classic slappy approach where he is simply trying to put wood on the ball and use his legs to get on base. The Marlins are working on adding strength so that Seymour can hang in better against hard throwers. If that happens, he could…stress could…turn into a Dee Gordon type of player. He's someone to watch.

You can use logitechs software, or whatever mouses software to bind keys, thats what i did with my G500.
Same I do the same with my Zero-g, in fact I alway bind to my mouse and KB rather than in game.
I think ppl need to realize that this is a BETA not a Demo, if you are following bf3 you should know that button remapping will be available with release.
Hope they fix the spelling mistakes. After being awarded the "Spirnt" ability and a couple of "Combat Efficienty" ribbons, I'd think that would have been caught much earlier. That or their QA folks don't speak much English.
i'm already pretty fed up with this map now.
Are you sure it wasn't intentional? I believe it reads SPRNT (as in no vowels). Didn't catch the "Efficienty" one though, so maybe it's not intentional.
And now-a-days, I'd definitely say most people in the software programming field probably don't speak English all that well. Enough to get by but not enough to catch errors.
DICE is also from sweden.. so of course all their coders don't know english.
I know DICE is from Sweden and I don't expect their coders to speak perfect English, but EA has a large multinational QA department. You'd think it would have been caught there. Maybe it's intentional, but it hits on one of my pet peeves. If you can't take the time to spell check everything, it doesn't look professional.
That being said, I enjoyed the game play, and look forward to release.
Knew it couldn't have been a newer build.
Beta means well .... beta .
I am pretty disappointed with the beta. After about 10 mins or so. The game locks up and I have to task manger it to close it. The funny thing is. I played the alpha and didn't have this problem. Anyone have this issue as well?

2016 was the year of live video services popping up on the scene. Live video isn't for everyone, but it can be useful in certain situations. Here's a breakdown of the top three social media platforms that offer it.
Instagram's live video service was launched in November 2016. As Instagram is a mobile-only platform, video live-streaming is only available on mobile. There is a 1-hour time limit to the stream, and videos do disappear after the broadcasts, unlike some other platforms.
Instagram's live video can be quite useful to your brand and your marketing, but it's dependent on what kind of business you have. One of the cons is that the marketing on Instagram is completely different than marketing on other social media platforms, such as Twitter or Facebook.
Twitter followed after Instagram with the release of its live video feature in December 2016. Again, Twitter chose to make the streaming for mobile-only. There is no time limit on live Twitter videos though, and you can choose to save the broadcast.
In 2015 Twitter bought the livestreaming app Periscope, so technically you could say that Twitter has had this capability for a long time. Until December the way that the live-streaming worked was that you could connect Periscope and Twitter, and share your live-streams through Twitter. It still required having accounts for both services though, and there was the problem. Live videos that are streamed on Twitter will also be streamed on Periscope.
This is the newest streaming option available and there are still some kinks to work out, even though it seems to be a promising marketing platform.
Facebook wins the race of release dates, releasing its video streaming service in April 2016. Facebook's version is mobile-only but its currently working on a desktop version. There is a 4-hour time limit to Facebook live videos.
The Facebook live stream video was wide released in April 2016, with earlier versions available in 2015, so users are far more familiar with this platform's version. You can even target certain groups of people with your live videos. Facebook also saves broadcasts which means that users can share them, for extra viewers. This is a simple fact that may be winning the marketing battle. The fact that users can save and share their past live videos mean that there's more value to them, as users can still see them after the event has passed.


Katia: Consume Imp Boss' heart to gain its power! Or… um, at least loot it for its gall.
Actually, if you remember the Encyclopedia of Deadly Creatures correctly, this is a lady imp and that bulge is an udder.
You're not gonna kick an udder. That would just be weird.
Ok. First, check if you are on fire. If so, put it out. Then check the other stuff and try not to let any more of the stuff you were meant to be protecting be burnt to cinders.
Downstairs, now! Grab water, call the guards, anything to suppress the fire.
And remember you pre-emptively paid "insurance" in the form of 10 septims just in case you broke everything, so still demand payment.
It, ah, looks like all the fires went out when the imp died. At least, all the fires started by the imp's magic.
There are a couple dying embers of your own fire lying about, but nothing big enough to be a hazard. All of your spells either hit the imp or went out the window.
And you're preeeeetty sure this window isn't facing toward the super-flammable orphanage. You're just gonna kinda hope you're right about that.
Well Katia you did it. How does it feel to have slayed a strong beast?
You're… honestly not sure how you're supposed to feel right now.
In all the stories you've read, this is the part where the love interest is supposed to burst through the door and sweep the main character off his feet with desperate statements about how she's glad he's okay. Then, the scene cuts to something else and it's left pretty vague exactly who is expected to mop up all the blood, or at what point the main characters are supposed to shrug off the huge battle and be like, "okay, back to what we were doing before". You don't really have much reference for how this whole post-battle part is supposed to be hitting you.
-rrroooooookay, that answers your question about when it's time to forget about the fight and move on. You've gotta collect that bounty, hope that agreed-upon "ten septims worth of damages" isn't negotiable, and finally go get your stuff back from Sigrid.
Also you're only sharing a third of the reward with Rajirra.
Katia: Insist that you get the 70%. It's only fair after what Rajirra pulled.
Yeah. Now that might be one place you need to do a little renegotiation.
You can understand Rajirra running away – especially since, as strange as it feels to admit, she was less suited to a magical fight than you were. But even then, she fed you bad information, she didn't even leave you with a weapon, and you did most of the work here. You think that deserves a little more than 30%. Like, at least 40%.
Oh. Right. There was also the whole "lock you in here to die" thing.
Put your innate khajiiti thievery skills into use and make your way through that locked door.
Now it's finally MY time to shine!
This door is barred from the other side.


Can you teach a bear to dance?
One can only try! But what do you use to motivate a bear? What does it eat? Stan consulted his encyclopedia. Meanwhile, the bear was becoming restless and hungry... for vengeance.
Stan brandished the carcass at the bear, but gingerly. He didn't want to have to kill another nun for this ritual and those postmortem tattoos couldn't be done with a sharpie.

100% fermented in stainless steel tanks, at 16-18°C with selected yeast. Aged in stainless steel tanks.
This wine is a blended from grapes grown on Degenfeld's best plots: Borkút, Galambos, Terézia, and Zomborka. The bedrock is rhyolite tuff and topsoil varies from brown forest soil and loess with a touch of clay loam.
Winter was relatively mild, coupling average rainfall was with fluctuating temperatures. Due to unusually low temperatures in March plus high morning humidity and a bit of draught, spring was marked by the onset of powdery mildew. Precipitation during the first half of June caused irregular berry setting and somewhat low yields. Annual rainfall was of average quantity but uneven distribution. Berries were hand-selected to ensure high quality for this dry low-alcohol wine with vigorous acids.

The potential pathways to increase the energy storage in electric double-layer (EDL) supercapacitors using room-temperature ionic liquid electrolytes and carbon-based nanostructured electrodes are explored by molecular dynamics simulations. A systematic comparison of capacitances obtained on nanoparticles of various shape and dimensions showed that when the electrode curvature and the length scale of the surface roughness are comparable to ion dimensions, a noticeable improvement in the capacitive storage is observed.
The nanoconfinement of the electrolyte in conductive electrode pores further enhances the capacitance due to mismatch in ion–electrode surface interactions and strong electrostatic screening. We show that nanoporous structures made of arrays of conductive carbon chains represent a synergy of all three favorable factors (that is, high curvature, atomic scale roughness, and nanoconfinement) and can generate non-Faradic capacitance ranging from 260 to 350 F/g, which significantly exceeds the performance of the current generation of nanostructured electrodes.

The dependability and charisma of a great gelding prove why it's a favorite among cowboys.
Those of us who have horses in our lives are undeniably blessed. For some of us, it means we spend a large part of each day in the saddle. For others, it might mean managing a boarding barn, rehabbing injuries or simply enjoying the company of a retired horse on occasion. But it's a safe bet to say that at some point, all of those involved have been humbled and awestruck by the domestication of this great animal.
That being said, we've all got our favorites. I've got a true appreciation and deep affection for many of the mares in my life. I love young foals and their unwavering curiosity as they explore the world, bouncing between suspicious caution and playful adventures. I think that the stallions that deserve to be kept as such are extraordinary creatures and merit homage as well. But there is something incredibly special about geldings.
The gelding is often the default, go-to choice for cowboys, horsemen and riders. He's got a can-do attitude and rarely argues with his rider's requests. He is here to happily perform his tasks without an emotional fuss, and his work ethic is dedicated and steady. He is clever and kind, with a heart for his job and a predictable disposition. He's rational and dependable, but don't mistake his consistent disposition for being a bore. He is often the "funny guy" in the room making up for his lack of excessive testosterone with loads of personality and a sense of humor. I know many geldings that can open gates, untie any knot, and turn any seizable item in the pasture into an excuse for play.
A gelding makes an excellent roommate, whether he's bunked up with other geldings, mares or even studs. While a mare might create strife in a herd or find reasons to compete with others, the biggest worry in a gelding's life usually consists of how soon he gets to enjoy his next meal. Rather than get caught up in "marish" cliques and hierarchies, a pen of young geldings is generally seen napping together or playing, chasing and cavorting around. Generally, he is a sensible creature, proving to be steadfast and drama-free in situations where mares and studs would use the same opportunity to react theatrically. He can be thrown in a tight trailer, packed with other horses, or tied closely to others on a highline with little argument or worry.
I have yet to see something stronger and more powerful in the hip than a well-kept gelding. I am particularly fond of those that sport a long, pretty neck and deep girth, with good withers and a kind eye. Although they lack the feminine refinement that mares may boast, geldings are often handsome, balanced animals that exude patience and dependability. A seasoned gelding is a wise creature, a true workhorse that is steady and even and dedicated to his rider and his job.
Selling a horse is often an easier transaction when your animal is a gelding. His reputation precedes him on the ranch, in the show pen or just as a pleasure-riding animal. His lack of libido creates a consistent and trustworthy work ethic in all different circumstances. Geldings are appreciated in every corner of the horse world and found in every scene, from the most competitive rodeo arena to the first ride for a young child in a quiet backyard. He simply makes for a wonderful friend to humans and horses alike.
Yes, I respect the heck out of a great stallion. And there is always room in my barn for a nice mare. But God blessed us all when he gave us the gelding.
