This service is accessible from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays by means of Fridays, and from 8 a.m. to adjournment on Saturdays. Physicist Lionel Barrett takes a mysterious machine to the notorious Belasco home, hoping to use it to neutralize what he calls the house's unfocused electromagnetic vitality." This quintessential haunted home was owned by Emeric the Roaring Big" Belasco, who apparently disappeared after murdering numerous people in his humble abode.
Gropius House is close to the City of Lincoln's conservation trails, and some guests enjoy taking a walk in the woods. Good lord when folks say that your home is your calling card they aren't kidding. As talked about there appears to be some possible rising damp in the 2 bedrooms and though a mould spray has been used on the partitions and I've painted my walls, it looks like is is coming again and in the main bed room which is my brothers room there is always alot of condensation on the home windows. When you fall behind (in my case I lost my job) that is very little technique to get caught up. The house is gone. An organized table listing all 110 Michigan Representatives and their contact data, including workplace cellphone numbers and e-mail addresses. And renovation plans foundered as he apparently defaulted on a $1.3 million loan.
No matter what illness is thrown at him, irrespective of how impossibly incurable it seems, Home (usually) manages to save lots of the day.. If only he'd smile more. What began as a one bedroom, kitchen, front room, eating room & bathroom is now all these plus 2 bedrooms, family room, entrance room and seasonal patio room.

You are taking a brief survey that covers both demographics in addition to buying/way of life. Her specialty is elaborate events, just like the infamous $60,000 tea party for Taylor's 4-yr-old daughter's birthday. I've also stumbled upon one other manner how to make Feng Shui work that may assist anyone easy methods to sell his home fast and it is dwelling staging. After you have been despatched a notice and the waiting interval has expired, the lender can set a date to promote your house at a foreclosure auction. After her death Miss Murphy's moderately odd widower Simon Monjack continued to dwell in the home along with Sharon Murphy, his mother-in-law. We don't wish to sell the home for less and nonetheless owe the bank, plus we most likely couldn't find a purchaser in its present situation.
The added problem with the rampant home worth inflation in these areas is that it is added in to the national statistics, and creates a false total image. The house is in both of our names and I've begged him for us to place it up on the market as a result of I not can not afford it alone. Nevertheless, if they don't, you might be able to decide your own home up again on the county tax public sale-minus the mortgage. Each of the bedrooms are subsequent to an out of doors wall and appear to be the dampest areas of the whole home, with attainable rising damp. One of many first was The House with Seven Gables, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1851. Depending on how much your home sells for, chances are you'll end up with $20,000-30,000 after paying the real property fee. Your kitchen is beautiful, your entire house and its story is an actual inspiration!

NE India a Central Part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "India Vision"
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi addressing during the Festival of Arunachal 2015, at Itanagar, in Arunachal Pradesh on February 20, 2015.
The Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) of the Ministry of Development of North-Eastern Region (DoNER) and Chairman North-East Council, Dr Jitendra Singh recently noted that this was one of the best times the North-east which is part of Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi's "India vision". The Minister was addressing Governors and Chief Ministers of the eight States on the second day of 64th Plenary Meeting of North-eastern Council (NEC) held in April 2015.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said, it is a golden opportunity when on the one hand, the entire world is looking up to India as a place of happening and on the other hand, Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, who has emerged as a world leader of international reckoning, inspires a renewed feeling of national esteem through his concept of "Make in India" which is envisaged to be achieved through Make in Northeast.
In this context, he referred to Prime Minister's original description of eight States of Northeast as Ashta Lakshmi, which not only symbolizes a historic but also a perspective connotation for growth, development and economy. Nothing can be more significant than the fact that during his very first visit to Northeast as Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi announced the setting up of six Agricultural Colleges in the North-East Region and laid emphasis on developing the NER as a hub of organic farming.
Dr. Jitendra Singh also noted that besides poor connectivity and accessibility, another major problem faced by North-east is youth exodus because of poor opportunities of higher education and meager avenues of employment.

Milan travel to Napoli on Saturday for their first game of the 2018/19 Serie A season, after the recent bridge disaster in Genoa brought about the postponement of last week's scheduled game.
Gonzalo Higuain, Milan's new loan signing from Juventus, returns to face his former side Napoli. He has a taste for scoring against Napoli - he's hit five goals in his last six games - which Milan can take encouragement from.
Napoli manager Carlo Ancelotti, who replaced Maurizio Sarri in the summer, will be facing his former side too. He managed Milan for eight seasons between 2001 and 2009, winning eight trophies - including two Champions Leagues.
Milan were on a seven-match winless run at home during the 2008/09 Serie A season when they hosted Napoli at San Siro. But the Brazilian trio of Ronaldo, Pato, and Kaka summoned their samba magic to spell the end of Milan's home misfortunes.
Ronaldo opened the scoring for Milan after being played through by Pirlo. Ronaldo's shot squirmed under Napoli goalkeeper Iezzo before the ball crept in despite Cupi's attempted clearance. Ronaldo scored again just after half time to make it 3-2 to Milan.
Kaka scored Milan's fourth with a powerful strike from outside the box, and an 18-year-old Pato, who was making his Milan debut, scored the last goal of the game.
Milan's epic win over Napoli was a rare consolation in a season they had to see their San Siro roommates Inter win the Scudetto.
Higuain will be hoping to add to his collection of goals scored against Napoli and in doing so earn admiration from his new Milan fans. His last goal against Napoli came in a 2-1 win for Juventus last season, a goal he celebrated by taunting Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis.
Napoli's Senegalese centre-back Koulibaly will be tasked with holding off Higuain's attempts at attacking the heart of Napoli's defence. Napoli failed to keep a clean sheet in their first game of the season, a 2-1 win against Lazio, so their defence will be hoping to redeem themselves.
Higuain is a striker who knows how to use his physicality to faze defenders. Koulibaly's strength could be key to keeping Higuain from netting against Napoli.
Ancelotti is likely to name the same line-up that played and won in Napoli's recent win over Lazio. Arkadiusz Milik, who has fully recovered from a knee injury he suffered last season, scored in the win against Lazio and should retain his place.
As this is Milan's first game of the season, new signings Tiemoue Bakayoko and Higuain could make their Rossoneri debuts. Hakan Calhanoglu is suspended for the game as he still serves a one-match ban.
Napoli: Ospina; Hysaj, Albiol, Koulibaly, Rui; Allan, Hamsik, Zielinski; Callejon, Milik, Insigne.
AC Milan: Donnarumma; Calabria, Musacchio, Romagnoli, Rodriguez; Kessie, Biglia, Bakayoko; Suso, Higuain, Bonaventura.
Hosts Napoli are undefeated in seven matches at the Stadio San Paolo against Milan. Napoli have also won three of their last four meetings with them. It will not be an easy game for either side, but given Napoli's recent record against Milan, and coming off of a confidence-boosting win over Lazio, Napoli will be favourites for this game.
Milan will be hoping to get their season off to a good start and they will need nothing short of a special performance in Naples to win all three points. New striker Higuain's goalscoring record against Napoli will give them some hope.


MANCHESTER UNITED will play fierce rivals City in a pre-season friendly next season.
It was announced yesterday that United planned to tour China ahead of the new campaign.
And it's now been confirmed that they will meet neighbours City at the Beijing National Stadium on July 25.
It will be the first time incoming boss Pep Guardiola leads his new side in a Manchester derby. It could even be his first ever game as City manager.
United and City are joined in the three-team International Champions Cup by Borussia Dortmund.
The Red Devils play Dortmund on July 22 while City meet them a week later on July 29.
A United statement read: "Manchester United will face Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City in China as part of the Club's Tour 2016, presented by Aon.
"United will play in the International Champions Cup (ICC) against the Bundesliga side in the Shanghai Stadium on Friday 22 July, kick-off to be confirmed, before facing rivals Manchester City in the iconic Beijing National Stadium on Monday 25 July, with the kick-off time to be announced in due course.
"This will be the second consecutive year that the ICC returns to China, as part of their worldwide tournaments through Relevent Sports, Catalyst Media Group and LeSports.
"Tickets for last summer's ICC China, which was won by Real Madrid, sold out in just hours, with this summer's ICC also expected to see unprecedented demand. Supporters, including UK-based Manchester United fans, can purchase tickets for the game via www.manutd.com/Tour2016 in due course.
"In 2015, nearly one million fans attended ICC matches globally including Manchester United's sell-out games in the US against Mexican side Club America, MLS outfit San Jose Earthquakes, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.


GeneratePress is a free WordPress theme made by Tom Usborne, a developer from Canada. I've actually seen it for years in the WordPress repository. Most of you realize that I'm pretty picky when it comes to web performance, and so I tend to dismiss everything from the repository. Typically because a great deal of stuff on there is not that good, or not supported for long. Nonetheless, in this circumstance, that was a mistake. The theme currently has over half a million downloads, 80,000+ active installs, with over 500 5-star ratings. So clearly Tom is doing something right here.
I Really set up the free version of the motif and in a matter of 15 minutes purchased the superior version. I could tell right off the bat, the programmer was thinking exactly how I was envisioning a theme should get the job done. And I will go into that more below, but let's first look at a number of the features. I'm going to be covering the premium version of the subject, since it's worth very penny. Actually, Tom, in the event that you read this and so are visiting Scottsdale, Arizona, java on me.
The Documentation can be unbelievable. Besides have good documentation on their website, the subject has existed long enough that everything I Googled during the setup procedure was found within a couple of seconds from their own forum.
Now it's Time for the fun part! I always test a new theme right out of the box without any customizations to see how fast the foundation is. This tells me a great deal of what I can expect by the time that I add everything to it. Running the stock GeneratePress WordPress motif on Kinsta hosting clocked in at a whopping 265 ms loading time. I was quite impressed.
That is a programmer that cares about performance! And I've Seen the same during all of the premium add-ons. They're as small as you can possibly get them. In reality, Font Awesome is probably the largest file contained. And that isn't even his. With Font Awesome 5 arriving around the cornerwe can anticipate this to secure smaller too.
The premium add-ons Are installation in what I would call a modular layout. You can activate/deactivate anything you are not using to ensure they don't load on your site. As the co-developer of the perfmatters plugin that has a script supervisor built-in, I felt right at home for this. Everything ought to be made this way.
The WordPress customizer choices is really where GeneratePress really shines! Remember, lots of these choices are enabled from the premium add-ons. I can't show you everything, otherwise, we would be here all day. But let me show you couple which actually come in handy.
You might want to Also grab his amazing WP Display Posts plugin too. See my featured posts on the sidebar of this website? That is using the WP Show Posts plugin. I have it set to show posts from a specific"featured" category. You might also get it show past modified/updated posts, recent articles, etc.. I'm using the free version and it works great.
The Sections add-on in the premium version of GeneratePress lets you do all sorts of things concerning design. Think of it like a webpage builder without the bloat. GeneratePress is definitely not only for blogs! I am in reality using GeneratePress to our ecommerce website (perfmatters.io) that is operating Easy Digital Downloads. Don't hesitate to look it over. But as you can see below, it looks like a blog.
For those Of those that are regular readers, you likely did not even notice I changed the whole theme that forces woorkup.com. It just took me about an hour to get GeneratePress to mimic my MyThemeShop theme that I had spent a year customizing. Here's a comparison below.
My old MyThemeShop theme was pretty fast, but I spent a lot of time scrutinizing it. In fact, I have gotten a great deal of emails from you guys asking me to print all my customizations. My advice today is, simply get GeneratePress!
Like the WordPress theme I've working on woorkup? You are in luck. Tom asked if he could make a replica of woorkup for the brand new GeneratePress blog library. I'm happy to let you know that now you can put in my woorkup theme in your GeneratePress website with only a click! It's known as the Marketer motif. Get started with a fantastic blog layout instantly.
I also Moved within my personal website, brianjackson.io, to GeneratePress. Previously I had been using a motif from Array Themes. It is a pretty basic minimum website, since I do not use it to get much. Since you can see it already loaded pretty quickly.
I had been Able to duplicate the whole look 100 percent in GeneratePress in under one hour. And as you can view it loads faster! Amazing. I was even able to get rid of a few plugins that weren't needed because of GP.
I can not express my Excitement about locating GeneratePress and I am moving over all of my sites for this (which includes some EDD e-commerce sites). After I've got my 9 sites all running in GP with no child themes, my life will be a breeze! The programmer has revived my faith in multi-purpose themes, and that when done the correct way, can actually perform faster.
So To create GeneratePress look how you want it to, you'll most likely need to go in and customize things. And though the substantial benefit of GeneratePress is how customizable it is, some users, especially casual users, do not like having to make those changes .
All In all, GeneratePress will give you much more customization options in the WordPress Customizer compared to most other topics. This level of detail may be a bit overwhelming if you're a newcomer. But as soon as you understand the way the settings come together, you'll have complete control over how your site looks.
Around All its attributes, GeneratePress always includes a focus on exceptional performance and clean code. The whole motif is less than 30 kB, and it is about as small as you'll ever find for a WordPress theme. Even most other optimized WordPress topics are still 200+ kB. And some badly coded themes can even surpass 1 MB!
Earlier In 2018, however, the programmer added a fresh Site Library attribute for GeneratePress Premium users that allows you easily import any among those 25+ pre-built demonstration websites .
That said, If you're seriously interested in using GeneratePress, I believe you need to buy the GeneratePress Premium plugin, as that is what makes the theme so flexible. The free version doesn't give you nearly as many configurations in the WordPress Customizer. And you'll also lose out on the premade Site Library.
GeneratePress Premium can be still fairly reasonably priced. It costs only $39.95, which provides you use on infinite websites . You will also get a 40% discount if you would like to renew to continue receiving support and upgrades following the initial year (you can, obviously, continue using GeneratePress after the initial year without beating — you just won't get any more updates).
However, If you are willing to spend some time changing preferences, then GeneratePress' mode controls give you the flexibility to turn it into any sort of WordPress website. Or, you may even be able to locate a starter site that fulfills your needs to save a little time.
Additionally, It is one of the fastest-loading WordPress themes you will locate. So if you're seeking the best performance possible, utilizing GeneratePress as your WordPress site's base is a good decision.

Anchorage residents near McHugh Creek fire prepare for the worst and hope for the best
Author: Devin Kelly
Rick Abbott gets his Brush Fire Unit fire fighting truck ready off of Villages Scenic Parkway up Potter Valley Road while preparing for the McHugh Creek Fire along the Seward Highway and Turnagain Arm on Wednesday, July 20, 2016, south of Anchorage, Alaska. Abbott bought the truck four or five years ago on eBay. (Bob Hallinen / Alaska Dispatch News)
Hope Wing woke up at 3 a.m. Monday and saw a red glow to the south from her home in Potter Valley.
She and her husband, Rick Abbott, drove to the McHugh trailhead. They watched huge flames leap above the rocky cliffs. A wildfire that started two days earlier in McHugh Valley had exploded overnight.
"I tasted fear," Wing said. "Tasted it."
On Wednesday, Wing stood in front of her home off Potter Valley Road, next to what appeared to be a firetruck hooked up to a series of hoses. It was a brush firetruck, bought on eBay a few years ago, ready to fight exactly what they feared was coming.
For three days, on this road about a mile from the north edge of the fire, Wing, Abbott and a tight-knit group of neighbors have been making preparations and pulling together. Some have lived in their homes for decades. But concern about a wildfire never seemed quite like this.
[On both ends of the McHugh Creek fire, residents prepare for possible evacuations]
Down the road from Wing, chainsaws whirred outside Janis Fleischman and Jerry Lewanski's home. The couple owns Fire Island Bakery. Fleischman built the house nearly four decades ago.
In the living room, Fleischman was packing up belongings.
"I've been in this house 35 years or so. This is the first time I've ever worried about it or packed up," Fleischman said, holding a trash bag in her hand. "The weather's really different. It's really dry. It's extremely dangerous."
On Monday, Fleischman and her daughter, Rachel Saul, put out a call on social media. Friends poured in to help cut back brush, set up fire breaks and clear trees. Fleischman guessed that about 60 trees around the house were cut down over two days.
Their well, 300 feet deep on fractured bedrock, had run dry, an issue also faced by other neighbors. Fleischman said she and Lewanski installed four new water tanks and also have flame retardant foam, a newer way to help fireproof a house.
But, she said, "we're facing a fire with no water."
Chantal de Alcuaz and Josie Beavers rent a smaller unit attached to Fleischman and Lewanski's home. On Wednesday, they bought homeowner's insurance. They were hoping disaster wouldn't strike sooner than later. The insurance kicks in on Thursday.
De Alcuaz is a carpenter and Beavers is a nurse at Providence Alaska Medical Center. Both stayed home from work Wednesday to help their landlords cut back brush.
Josh Saul cuts up a tree on his mother's property off of Villages Scenic Parkway up Potter Valley Road preparing for the McHugh Creek Fire along the Seward Highway and Turnagain Arm on Wednesday, July 20, 2016, south of Anchorage, Alaska. Janis Fleischman and Jerry Lewanski were making the property defensible and moving valuables out of their home. (Bob Hallinen / Alaska Dispatch News)
Lewanski ran the state parks division during the administration of Gov. Frank Murkowski. He said he and Fleischman had done bits and pieces of fire-wise stuff in recent years, but not nearly as much as in the past three days.
"Nothing like an emergency to egg us on," Lewanski said, who was repairing a chainsaw on a table.
Above the house, David Hamre, an avalanche specialist with the Alaska Railroad who lives next door, was driving an excavator and clearing brush along the dirt driveway leading to both homes. He borrowed it from Abbott, who rented the excavator earlier in the week.
On his property, Abbott also welded together a makeshift system of hoses. The hoses were connected on Wednesday to sprinklers wrapping around the house and to the brush firetruck.
Abbott bought the firetruck on eBay for $7,000 about five years ago from a volunteer fire department in a tiny town in Delaware. The side reads: "Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company." Abbott uses it for plowing in the winter, but it could also defend against a blaze.
"Once he saw that, it was like, 'Bingo,' " Wing said, standing in front of the house. "That's what we need."
A 5,000 gallon water tank sits beneath the tall work shed. Like Fleischman, Wing said they aren't relying on their well system.
Their cars are packed. Wing rolled up the rug she carried out of Nepal in a backpack in 1979 and gathered her mother's china and crystal. She took her favorite utensil from the kitchen: An Ikea garlic press.
Retired Anchorage fire captain Mike Dunn talks about preparations off of Villages Scenic Parkway up Potter Valley Road for the McHugh Creek Fire along the Seward Highway and Turnagain Arm on Wednesday, July 20, 2016, south of Anchorage, Alaska. (Bob Hallinen / Alaska Dispatch News)
Further down Potter Valley Road, Mike Dunn, a retired fire captain, was getting ready to attach his hose to a sprinkler on top of ladders next to his house, the side the fire would hit. He was also preparing to put a sprinkler on the roof.
His wife was at Lowe's fashioning a spray system for the paste-like fire retardant. Dunn said he and Abbott, his neighbor, came up with that idea a few years ago.
"For this day right here," Dunn said.
He'd packed up the valuables in his house and moved his two boats elsewhere. But Dunn has relied on his neighbors over the years. He said he wanted to spend as much time as possible helping out and clearing brush.
"If you took everything, you wouldn't have time to be with neighbors," Dunn said.
Everyone hoped the rain would come. They hoped the wind wouldn't change directions. They all agreed that it was a miracle the wind was blowing west instead of east.
Correction: An earlier version of this story misstated Jerry Lewanski's position in the Murkowski administration. He was director of the state parks division, not the state forestry division.

The Toyota Supra has leaked ahead of its debut (again) – and it's gorgeous
Sunny Lam posted in Jdm
Yes, yes, yes photos of the new Toyota Supra have been leaked… again. It would seem that Toyota Mexico has 'accidentally' leaked the promo video of the Supra on their Twitter account. This time however, we don't just see the front nose or the back – we see the full car.
Credit: Toyota Mexico's Twitter
You can tell Toyota is very serious about the new Supra, because at the start of the video, Akio Toyoda is making a statement that, and I quote, 'I think we need a Supra story again', which sounds like Toyota are bringing back the glory days of the nineties JDM car scene single-handedly.
After Toyoda-san's speech, we get to see the front of the Supra. The Supra pays tribute to the A80 Supra that went before with its extremely wide front end. To spice up the face of the Supra, Toyota have also given it some sexy lights and some front canards to make it look racier.
Up next we've got the shot where it shows us the front as well as the side of the Supra. The A90 in the promo video wears the same wheels as that of the famous prototypes that were tested by numerous journalists. Again, to go with the flow of the front fascia, some sideskirts lifted straight from Need For Speed Underground 2 are put on to make sure it appeals to the teenagers.
The side of the Supra follows the classic rule of 'long nose and short decklid' beautifully, with the proportions just right. In some ways it reminds me of the Aston Martin Vantage, which is definitely good for a car that's presumably not going to cost as much as an Aston. Look expensive is key in this sector and Toyota pulled it off wonderfully.
Round the back we see the Supra with number plates for the first time. Other than that, the rear lights are sexy like the front lights, as are those twin exhaust tips, which combined with the ducktail makes the Supra look like proper full-on sports car.
No other details on the Supra has been leaked apart from the exterior shots. However, from what we've known so far: BMW-sourced inline-six turbocharged engine with a ZF 8-speed, limited slip differential and a chassis shared with the Z4, this might look like an exact copy of its German brother. But Toyota has assured us that they haven't talked to BMW since the handover of the softwares and parts. So these two cars will be distinctively different. Apart from the engine note and the interior, obviously.
One thing's for sure: we can't wait for the official launch on 14 January. Because from what we've gathered, it's going to be a stunner, much like its predecessor. And it will shut purists up finally, which is a nice change.
What do you think of the new Supra? Tell us below!

Formed in Wirral, Merseyside with Paul Humphreys (synthesizers) and Andy McCluskey (vocals and bass guitar). They played their first gig in 1978 at Eric's (Liverpool), then had a run of UK chart hits after swapping labels from Factory to the Virgin owned label DinDisc starting with the 1980 release 'Messages'.
Although Humphreys left the group in 1989, McCluskey made a comeback in 1991 with the UK top 5 'Sailing On The Seven Seas', and followed that up with a UK top 3 Album 'Sugar Tax' before finally calling it a day in 1996.
In 2007 they toured together again featuring the classic line-up of Andy McCluskey, Paul Humphreys, Malcolm Holmes and Martin Cooper and released a live-album in 2008: 'OMD Live: Architecture & Morality & More'. September 2010 saw the release of History Of Modern featuring the original classic line-up.
The pinaccle of 80's synth. Gotta love moody lyrics attracted to epic riffs!
Their first 4 albums are among the best of the 80s. That cold, layered, electronic wash mixed with mournful emotional vocals tingles the ears more than almost any other 80s artist. I can't get into anything after Junk Culture - although their last two albums, especially The Punishment of Luxury approach a return to form.
Horrible forcing the electo while they sound amatheurish synth sonic-timbrewise. The concept of producing 80's albums nowadays is great but they just can't do it. Weak counterfeiting everywhere... Dull, boring compositions.... I'm very sorry.
The best band of the 80s no question. I love all their work but their standouts are 'Junk Culture' & 'Crush'. So creative and quirky whilst still having their charm. Even their poppiest material is light years ahead of the turd chart music of today and the past 10-15 years to be honest. Long may they continue.
A group of synth enthusiasts once confident enough to race with Kraftwerk on equal level, turned into a rock-band and it was certainly not by accident; it is the synth that might be part of the problem - once you exhaust it, what is there left to turn to but real instruments... early OMD were often given flattering epithets of combining ABBA and Joy Division influences. In case of their first five albums (experimentally fascinating 'OMD' and 'Organisation', confusingly subversive masterpieces 'Architecture & Morality' and 'Dazzle Ships'...), it is certainly true; from early minimal excursions into electronic extremes to their finest studio product ironically given the title 'Junk Culture' (1984), their name justifies every note - as the 80s progressed, many bands sacrificed patience and creativity for ambitious projects where egos outgrew frames of modesty - lush production doesn't always mean the goods are delivered in honest fashion; songs became too pretentious and embarrasingly sweet to listen to - while later on OMD managed to deliver a decent single (excellent 'So In Love' and 'Forever Live and Die'), the albums have long lost their course; 'Crush' is boring, 'The Pacific Age' is pointless, 'The Best of OMD' decently summarizes their pop-career up to 1988 while 90s' comeback attempts like 'Sugar Tax' (echoing tiny bits of 'Architecture & Morality' with wonderfully catchy 'Sailing on the Seven Seas' and 'Pandora's Box'), 'Liberator' or 'Universal' all sound more like frozen ideas from where the original line-up fell apart, trying desperately to catch up with trends of the moment - far better are their b-sides; from their earliest experiments to later superficiality, 'Navigation - The OMD B-sides' (2001) does offer the other side fully continued with technological efforts. Occasional retrospectives like the excellent 'Peel Sessions' collecting their broadcasted material from the most popular period of 1979 - 83 is also well worth a check.
Remastered anthology is finally added singles and rarities as chronological counterparts which are not recommended only to fans but to anyone interested in hearing OMD as once true to their ideals.
