If you go back through my "Best Action Films of the Year" lists for the last few years, you will see that I do have a slight bias towards Asian cinema in the genre. While many people have voiced their disagreements with me on including too many films from those countries, I truly believe that their industry has a better understanding of the art form of an action film. This year, however, those people that let me know I cater too much to that style are going to pissed. Simply put, the Asian countries dominated the genre this year. Europe and Hollywood most certainly dropped the ball when it comes to the better action films of the year – particularly when it comes to being the best of the best. So take that into considering when going into this list.
Outside of that note, 2016 had some great action films although none of them quite stood out against the pack like Mad Max: Fury Road or John Wick did in the last couple of years. There are plenty of mainstream goodies to be had here, but as always I love to throw in a few 'black sheep' entries that will surely get me some hate mail and snide comments from all over the interwebz. As that goes, here is my disclaimer that this list is purely based on my opinion of the best action films that came out this year and we are open to hear about what you guys think we missed or gave too high of a ranking for. This is 2016, I hold no delusions that the internet will voice its opinion over a list like this one. So feel free to shed some blood in the comments section, send us an email, post on our Facebook wall, or Tweet us.
*Note: some releases may have come out in years previous, but this list is crafted based on films that received their official North American debut in 2016 via theatrical screening, VOD, or home video. Thanks.*
30. Captain America: Civil War
The third Captain America film and umpteenth Marvel Cinematic Universe flick had the issue of running up against some very serious hype and being based on one of the greatest story arcs in comic book history. While the film itself is flawed in its writing, featuring another half dashed throw away villain like Marvel seems to enjoy crafting, it is pretty damn entertaining and runs on just being a charming film overall. It can't touch the heights reached by the political thriller tones of the last Cap film, but it attempts to do so in an admirable manner. It also earns some bonus points for fantastic introductions for both Spider-Man and Black Panther. Not an easy task considering this film is not about either of them.
29. The Purge: Election Year
Most end of the year lists are jamming this one into the horror film category and while the third Purge film certainly uses horror elements to its benefit – particularly in the third act – the use of rebel fighters, sieges, and badass Grillo kick it further into the action category for me. So here it is and while the film isn't quite as awesome as the last one, it's still light years ahead of the first one in quality and features a ton of memorable sequences worthy of mention. Plus, in a year like 2016, this film feels hopeful when it comes to its political commentary and satire.
28. Sword Master
The more I watch Sword Master the more I love it. It's definitely a move that isn't perfect, but it's throwback intent to recreating the Shaw Brothers tone is something that hits me right in the feels and the combination of Tsui Hark's production values with Derek Yee's direction is worth noting for any fans of Hong Kong cinema. It's well grounded into the wuxia genre with its high-flying action and over the top characters (and designs) so take it with a grain of salt going in and it should definitely be one that Shaw fans will appreciate on some level if only for its spin on being a remake of the classic wuxia Death Duel.
27. Eliminators
Eliminators was a wild card film going into the year. The director showed some talent with Green Street Hooligans 3 (ugh, three of those?) and it does star Scott Adkins (always a win in my book) so I was hoping the combination would be pretty awesome. It is. It's not a complex movie, focusing down on its stripped thriller plotting, but it's loaded with old school style and it lays the groundwork for an interesting lead character. It seems to be riding on the wake of John Wick's success in its style heavy, bare script approach, but when it works it does work. Eliminators makes it work pretty well.
26. Hard Target 2
A double dose of Scott Adkins is just what this list needed and after the surprise quality of Eliminators, let's talk about the surprise quality of Hard Target 2. It's a sequel that no one really asked for, but the combination of Adkins and director Reine makes it one of those straight to home video releases that action fans are going to love. The use of its Thailand setting is smart and it gives its heroes and villains plenty of cheesy material to play with just like a film called Hard Target 2 needs. The throwbacks to John Woo's style from the original are also a nice touch and it kicks it onto the list for the end of the year.
25. Marauders
This was a film that, even as I started watching it, I would have never guessed would have made this list by the end of the year. Marauders has a strong cast, although Willis is not much more than a namesake anymore in these kinds of films, but for an action thriller this hits a remarkable amount of gritty and effective beats to raise it above the normal crop of crap that drops during the year. At times it does feel a bit like a TV series concept that was made as a movie instead, but its clever writing and great characters make it one that eases by on the talents of its team instead of its worn concept. More of a thriller than straight up action, it is one of those gems that is going to be more than overlooked in the coming years.
24. The Accountant
Ben Affleck is an autistic accountant who moonlights as an international book keeper and vigilante justice provider. Yet, with a concept like that, The Accountant still made it into a wide theatrical release. Still, considering the low expectations I had for it, it carries a remarkable amount of charm with it, powering itself on the chemistry of its cast and some shockingly funny moments. It's also quite the action film when it wants to go there and I guess Affleck wanted to show people he can kick ass without a Batsuit and shitty film to go with it. I'll run with that. Here's to hoping this gets franchised because there are so many fun things you can do with the foundations that this film lays out. I hope it goes there.
23. Blood Father
Crazy Mel Gibson is the best Mel Gibson. While he is earning a bit of praise for his latest directorial effort garnering some awards season praise, Blood Father will remain on my list for best action films. It's gritty and dark with just enough social commentary to give it a depth that these kinds of action thrillers normally don't receive. Gibson remains one of the main reasons to see the film and his dark humor and off kilter performance energizes its 70s style plotting. Definitely worth seeing.
22. Standoff
Tom Jane and Laurence Fishburne are both men with nothing to lose and their stand off against one another in a small rural farm house over a little girl who has seen a murder might be one of the cleverer ideas that has come out of the straight to home video market in recent years. This film is less about the action and more about the tension, but when it's driven by some great direction and two screen cult giants doing their thing…it remains one of the best gems of the year.
21. Operation Mekong
Many of the early trailers for Operation Mekong made the film look something like a military action thriller, powered by a dramatic 'based on true events' plot, and packed with big name stars throwing their best performances to earn awards. In many ways, yes, this is the film you are going to see with Operation Mekong. It's certainly all of those things to an extent. However, that's not all it is either. There was a certain expectation that went with the tone of the trailers that seemed to mix Platoon with a more modern day Lone Survivor spin and Operation Mekong is a bit more than that…and a bit less. Dante Lam's latest action extravaganza is more John Woo and less Oliver Stone in its approach to the story, blending in high octane block buster action sequences with military dramatic touches. So it is less, in the idea of an impactful and emotional punch categories, but it is certainly more in the insane cheesy action categories. Operation Mekong ultimately comes off as a slightly mixed effort in its writing and characters, but it makes up for a lot of its larger flaws by being skull shatteringly action packed and tense. When it's boiled down, this is really the film I should have expected and I still enjoyed the hell out of it, even if it doesn't quite match the dramatic heights that Dante Lam has reached in previous films.
20. Call of Heroes
Initially, I didn't love Call of Heroes. It's a film that leaps from over the top outrageous antics to dark and often shockingly violent moments that I wasn't sure that worked. So I sat with it for a day or so and reflected about it. The more I thought about it though, the more it seemed to be the intent of the film. Yes, it's occasionally cheesy with some of its melodrama and almost cartoonish like characters, but as the film moves it starts to break those down. It goes as far as to fight against its own style at times to break those patterns and give abrasive texture to the normally bright colors and bigger than life moments of the film. The more I think about it, the more it works. The more I think about, the more those leaps between its tone and shifts are purposefully abrupt and disruptive. Call of Heroes is both a film that celebrates its heritage as a wuxia and a western and challenges it with modern style and spectacle.
19. Reign of Assassins
Over half of a decade. HALF A DECADE. That's how long it took Reign of Assassins to finally get a US release, despite the fact that it's co-directed by John Woo and stars Michelle Yeoh. Luckily, the wait is worth it because Reign of Assassins is one of those modern wuxia films that really works and it works in a lot of ways. It's effective in its character builds, gimmicky in its style, and impactful in its themes. It's one of those martial arts films that hits the viewer on a multitude of levels and despite some weird and occasionally predictable twists later on, it rarely misses a moment to run with what it is given. Sure, I waited for this film a long time, but the wait was worth it.
18. Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno
The first sequel to the live action version of Rurouni Kenshin (and the first of a two part story), Kyoto Inferno takes what the first film established and runs a theme more epic and more over the top. This is both a blessing and a curse, as viewers get to explore the universe that Kenshin exists in with more back story and deeper layers, but it's also a lot to consume at times. This film adds a lot of new characters, still as spunky and energetic as the ones in the first, and it really builds a kind of visual feast. It's epic. The action isn't nearly as memorable although, until the final act that is, and it takes a lot of time establishing the chess pieces for a much more robust concept to play out in the third film. It's still a massively impressive film, although I do like it a tad less than the original one.
17. Judge Archer
Xu Haofeng may have made a name for himself internationally by writing the acclaimed The Grandmaster for Wong Kar Wai, but his career as a writer is only one part of it. His career as a director, in my opinion, is even better than his ability to write dramatic martial arts films and his second film, Judge Archer, is further proof of this. While Judge Archer may not be the kind of film that appeals to martial arts fans who only like cheesy, over the top stuff, it is a martial arts film that bridges the gap between the classic kung fu foundations and an artful representation of them. It's dramatic and artfully vague, but it still rests its style and focus on classic martial arts ideas and it's masterfully crafted in its visuals and performances. It's not quite as efficient as Xu Haofeng's latest film The Final Master, but it certainly is a brilliant gem of the genre.
16. Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends
While the film lacks the feeling of a full structure (it is the second half of one long film, essentially) and adds even more characters into the mix of an already very packed narrative, Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends is still bombastic and effective. The story arc for our titular hero is strong and it wraps up some fun secondary plots in some unique ways - even going so far as to add in the classic martial arts "go-back-to-your-roots-and-retrain-for-the-final-battle" sequence in there. The final 25 minutes are an action fan's wet dream of expertly choreographed fight sequences, blistering execution of those, and dynamic shifts to the tone and atmosphere. It may not be perfect as a standalone film, but the final act alone might be one of the greatest action set pieces put to celluloid...ever. Truly an epic way to finish out an epic two-part film.
15. Saving Mr. Wu
Ding Sheng does it again with his latest thriller, Saving Mr. Wu. While based on real events, this film uses the director's grounded style and intense emotional bits to really drive home a unique and pounding thriller. It's a fairly straight forward film, but it's saved by an artistic and often complex narrative that wraps smaller character details into a leaping time structure that builds tension and the sense of urgency to sell the entire thing. The film is hinged on a series of very impressive performances (including the never-aging Andy Lau) and some charismatic dialogue that keeps things feeling human within its high speed style. Color me impressed once again with what Ding Sheng has to offer here. I was excited for his take on the A Better Tomorrow franchise that is in production, but now I'm positively stoked.
14. Hardcore Henry
Watching Hardcore Henry felt like it took 15 minutes. This is because the movie is outrageously entertaining and frantically paced. The gimmick of a "first person shooter film" can wear thin on occasion, but the script it's built on is so loose and fun that it's remarkably easy to run with as our hero Henry goes through a variety of horrifically violent and continually more unbelievably "levels" to get to his destination. In a lot of ways the film is built like a video game, all the way down to flash backs and exposition that resemble cut scenes and even problem solving to defeat a telekinetic boss (who is also viciously awesome). If you're not willing to buy into the gimmick, this movie will not interest you in any way. For clever conceptional action and its shockingly efficient way of telling its bare bones story though, I have to give it a huge recommendation as one of the most entertaining films of the year.
13. The Nice Guys
This is, essentially, a perfect comedy for me. It's not a perfect comedy for everyone as the tried-n-true approach to buddy action/thriller/comedy is now fairly predictable at times in the film, but the off beat and vulgar (without necessarily being toilet humor) comedy hits me right in the funny bone. The chemistry is spot on with Gosling giving the comedic performance of the year and the film still moves at a Sonic pacing without feeling overwhelming or lagging. The casting is damn near perfect, the writing is impeccably charming and witty, and the 70s setting is a blast to explore. There is also an Abbott and Costello reference that Gosling NAILS for those who are fans of the classic comedic duo.
12. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
Star Wars has always been a series I enjoy, but not necessarily love. Even Rogue One, the first anthology film for the expanding universe, is flawed in a few ways, but director Gareth Edwards and his merry bands of film makers simply nail the tone and pacing of this film. The characters are all fun and effective for their limited screen time and the final act is simply stunning in its scope and execution. This is a film that really does ride the line between Star Wars family friendly blockbuster and one that pushes the boundaries just a little bit further into darker and grittier territory. Not to mention, it's the first of many Donnie Yen films to make this list.
11.The Lost Bladesman
More than likely because of the previous entry Rogue One, The Lost Bladesman finally got a US release this year. It was worth the wait. As far as "historical" dramas go, they can be hit or miss from any market. Luckily, the story of Guan Yu and Cao Cao in The Lost Bladesman is damn near all hit. Donnie Yen gives an honest and subtle performance while Jiang Wen once again owns the screen with his portrayal of the controversial Cao Cao. With fight direction from Yen, it also slathers on some ridiculously awesome fight sequences including a vicious one on one battle in a tight ally and a game of cat n mouse with archers through thick fog. Martial arts fans should attempt to see this film because you will not be disappointed. It's dramatic martial arts at some of its best for the year.
10. Three
Johnnie To remains one of my favorite directors and one that always takes his thriller, gang, and action films into slightly new and effectively executed arenas. Three is another round of that concept where To crafts a film that's tensely minimalist for the first two acts and then shockingly overzealous in the final twenty minutes. It takes a lot of chances, some that work and some that don't, so there is mad respect for that. This is one of those action films that more thriller and even then it's more atmospheric thriller than pure action film, but when To is at the helm and it has such a smartly written script then the film comes highly recommended.
09. Veteran
Owing its fair share of influence from the likes of 80s HK action comedies from Golden Harvest, Veteran is a full gear fun film that showcases some great talent. The stunts and action are fabulous, the lead character is delightfully rough around the edges, and the villain is shockingly evil. The film misses a few opportunities to lift itself above being a good action comedy in themes and threaded ideas, but it's hard to say that it was a huge deterrent to the entertainment I had with the film. It's also a film that has grown with me more and more as the year has gone on and continually shifted upwards on this list to land in the top 10. It's quirky and very charming.
08. Kung Fu Panda 3
While Kung Fu Panda 3 does not top my list for best animated films for the year, that award goes to Kubo and the Two Strings, it does still make the list for top ten action films of the year for a variety of reasons. Like the previous two entries, this third one is an awesome balance between the simplicity of kid's filmmaking and some heavier concepts and it pushes it even further by going well into some non-western concepts like chi and the afterlife. It does it by littering the film with some great characters, funny situations, and plenty of action, but it's still something of a chancy intent. To add gravy to this dinner though, the animation is simply stunning and makes it all blend together impressively well.
One of the biggest surprises of the year was Deadpool, a film that took years to make and only days to dominate the international box office. Truthfully, it might be how surprisingly fun and solid it was as a film that rocketed this superhero film into the top ten on this list. By all means, Deadpool can be an irritating character and his die hard fanbase can be just as bad. Yet this film has a surprising amount of heart to go with its fast and randomized humor and it uses its limited budget and characters in a wise manner. The balance between comedy and action is striking and the casting is spot on for all of the characters. It's not nearly the best comic book superhero adaption ever made, but in a year where most of them were either underwhelming (X-Men, Doctor Strange) or outright terrible (Batman V Superman, Suicide Squad) Deadpool came out like a breath of fresh air.
06. Star Trek Beyond
Considering some of the luke warm love that this film received when it came out, the fact that it made it all the way to #6 on this list is going to be decently controversial and I'm sure I'll hear all about it. However, when it comes to theatrical films that I saw this year Star Trek Beyond must be one of the movies I had the most fun at. This is, inherently, because it is the anti-Star Trek Into Darkness film. Instead of massive amounts of forced plot and haphazardly thrown together references to the original series, Beyond flows in a very natural way embracing the adventure and fun of the original series while still maintaining the modern aspects of this latest franchise. Justin Lin adds his own spin to things in the second half mostly, but the director knows entertaining and he fully embraces it here. It's not a life changing entry into the series, but I can easily see it being one that I revisit the most for how enjoyable it is.
05. Cold War II
The first Cold War film was one that I enjoyed quite a bit as a political and police thriller, but Cold War II ups the ante on damn near every level. This one might be a stretch to call an action film as it really does focus down on suspense, tension, and thrills with a couple of action set pieces thrown in for good measure, but I was on the edge of my seat the entire film and it's relentless pacing and high octane performances made it feel like an action film. The addition of Chow Yun Fat to the roster only made things more awesome this time around and for that it easily makes my top five of the year.
04. Ip Man 3
Donnie Yen owned 2016. Not only is he on this list multiple times already, but his return to the Ip Man franchise is a key reason to his international success and this third entry is a worthy addition. While the Mike Tyson plot does seem to be a tad unnecessary in the grand aspect of the film, Ip Man 3 balances it out with some phenomenal casting choices including Max Zhang and Beardy to the roster whom make the most of their time in the film. Again, this series is easily one of the best martial arts series of all time so far and with the announcement of a fourth one coming, it's not a hard decision to add Ip Man 3 to your list to watch. If only for the stunning finale.
03. Rurouni Kenshin: Origins
That's right, all three Rurouni Kensin movies made the list this year. Despite the epic tone of the final two, the first one remains the best. The action is swift and relentless, the heart and humor work to make the characters stick, and it's period piece plotting ably gives the film a great twist of blending traditional samurai cinema moments with modern appeal. The casting is spot on and the emotional resonance is effective. It's not often that adaptions for anime make our lists, let alone this high, but Rurouni Kenshin deserves to be recognized – even if the US release came four years too late to really be able to jump on the bandwagon.
02. Killzone 2 (SPL 2)
The original Killzone (SPL) was released to acclaim, but over the years has taken an ambitious life of its own as a modern action classic that blended classic Hong Kong cops n' robbers motifs with a modern sensibility. It's sequel may not feature any of the same characters, but it ably recaptures that same tone and concept. It features some jaw breaking action set pieces and uses its A-list casting to maximum benefit. Tony Jaa, Wu Jing, and Max Zhang? Not to mention Simon Yam and Louis Koo? This is a modern Hong Kong cinema fans dream cast and it uses them to near perfection. This film also features TWO of the best fight sequences in 2016 with a prison riot and a 2 on 1 brawl between Tony Jaa, Wu Jing, and Max Zhang. It might have tightened up its symbolic moments a bit, but when it's this entertaining and contains this much heart that's a minor annoyance.
01. The Final Master
There are a lot of left field choices on my list this year, controversial or not, but perhaps the biggest one takes the #1 spot for the year. I say its controversial because it was a film that only received a very limited theatrical run in the US earlier this year and then seemingly disappeared. No home video release has been announced. It's a shame really. The Final Master (also known as The Master) is everything that I wanted The Grandmaster to be as an artistic martial arts film. It's dense, uses space in brilliant ways, and features some phenomenal performances from actors and in the action set pieces. It's perhaps more arthouse than most action fans would care to see in their action movies, but it blends the two so perfectly that I couldn't help but be completely at the film's beck and call.

Based largely on a picture by Adalheidis on tumblr. Done for the idea of a holiday spirit where Vayne must decide and has yet to when it comes to getting his younger sibling a present.
It's three days before the holiday, before the day where all assembled must present and be presented with gifts of cheer and love, things Vayne, a singular older brother now with far more important things (he claims in his attempts to not panic), has been avoiding collecting. It's easy to pretend work is but all one has to do and tucked so neatly around a flaming pit late in the day, it simply will not let him rest, plucking and harassing his thoughts.
A heavy huff of air escapes his lips and there is a creak next to him, the unmasked array of random Judge Magisters who were dragged in for the early festivities all turning to look at him.
The heir looks back at them, brows raising in aggressive query. It matters not that he has sighed no less than three times in the past half hour alone, the lot of them do not understand.
The Judges are quick to turn away again, though Drace looks most disinterested in supplying him with further frustrations and she remains staring at him.
There is a chorus of understanding, though a few pass each other looks of bemusement.
Vayne leaves before they can note the angry red flush to his cheeks.

Plans to spice up former Italian
by Lisa Reeves
Thursday 5th September 2013
Thu 5th Sep 2013
Exclusive. A well-established Wilmslow restaurant will be relocating after the owners purchase a town centre property which has been empty for over a year.
Steven and May Wakefield are excited to be relocating the Chilli Banana Thai Restaurant to new premises on Water Lane, having bought the building previously occupied by Felicini.
Steven and May have exchanged contracts and will complete the purchase next week. They then plan to start work on refurbishing the restaurant immediately and hope to be in their new premises mid to late November.
Steven said "We have had a great 16+ years at the King's Arms where we have firmly established ourselves as the area's leading Thai restaurant and takeaway.
"This superb location and premises will give us the opportunity to push the business forward in our own way, with fresh, smart and stylish new premises."
May and her team of chefs will operate from a state of the art theatre kitchen whilst Steve will oversee service for 120 diners split over the ground and first floor, with the first floor being available for private parties.
In the meantime Steve says it is business as usual at the King's Arms during the refit, and then hopefully a seamless move to the new premises.

Great that more restaurants are coming to the town centre, Margarita Lounge, Phanthong Thai and now Chilli Banana, it's what Wilmslow needs. However, let's not forget about the delicious Phanthong Thai as the competition amongst Thai restaurants is hotting up!! Would not be good to see another unit open just for another to shuts it's doors. Nothing wrong with healthy competition though!

Steve, May and their fantastic chefs, and wonderful service staff, have been dishing up delicious and superb quality Thai food to the people of Wilmslow, Alderley and surrounding areas for many, many years. Indeed, since they were pioneers of the provision of Thai food to residents in Alderley Edge when they took over the function rooms of the "late" Royal Oak pub on Heyes Lane. I remember going for a superb meal within a couple of weeks of them bravely opening their restaurant above the pub and they deserve all the success they have had since then. They are far from newcomers! Competition is always good for business. Great news for them and many thanks to you both for bringing an empty property back to life! Can't wait to make my first booking in the new premises.!

Q: Elementary OS installation failure I've been trying for a few hours now and I still cannot find out why I cannot install Elementary OS. Every time I try to install it I get:

the 'grub-efi' package failed to install into /target/

I am trying to dual boot Elementary with Windows 8.1, I have wiped my SSD and set it as MSDOS to see if it worked, it did not.
I have now used boot-repair in order to see what is wrong, it says:

The boot of your PC is in EFI mode, but no EFI partition was detected. You may want to retry after creating a EFI partition (FAT32, 100MB-250MB, start of the disk, boot flag).

And after a few seconds I get:

grub-pc purge cancelled. Please report this message to boot.repair@gmail.com.

Bootinfo summary: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9488247/
What can I do to make this install work?

A: Since Elementary OS Luna is based on Ubuntu 12.04 I found that it's quite common problem to install 12.04 with EFI https://askubuntu.com/questions/260297/12-04-2-failed-to-install-grub-efi-to-target .

The San Diego Chargers were handed their fifth consecutive loss on Monday night. The 22-19 defeat was familiar territory for the Chargers. Out of those five consecutive losses, four were due to costly fourth-quarter mistakes.
"It's pretty sickening," quarterback Philip Rivers said, per the team's official site.
"It's been a tough stretch to say the least," Rivers added. "You at least kind of wonder ... it's just crazy how they've all been similar. We had a chance in all of them. The Oakland one was a little out of hand, still, even that one we made it interesting.
"We just don't have the answers right now. It's not surrendering and saying we're not good enough. I'm not saying we're surrendering, but we are what we are, and right now, that's 2-7 on a five-game skid."
The Chargers' 16-7 lead was cut to two just minutes into the fourth quarter, mainly because of two self-inflicted penalties. The first stemmed from a flag on Stevie Johnson for delay of game after the receiver spiked the ball following a pass. D.J. Fluker drew the second penalty for being an illegal man downfield -- a play which otherwise would have been six on the board for San Diego (Rivers found Gates in the end zone).
"Obviously critical mistakes," head coach Mike McCoy said. "We can't have two penalties take points off the board. We would have gone up a score and instead we give them an opportunity to go down and go ahead. Critical mistakes."
The Bears capitalized on a gassed Chargers secondary, putting up 15 points in the fourth quarter.
"(The defense) did not make enough plays," McCoy said. "It comes down to that. That is what the game comes down to, making plays. We gave (the Bears) too many opportunities."
Aside from the penalties, Johnson believes it's the team's lack of discipline that ultimately led to the fourth-quarter meltdown.
"We just have to be better," Johnson said. "We just have to be more disciplined, I guess. And we have to be able to fight through it and overcome. We're learning. It's a learning process right now and we'll get better. It's about progressions."
Week 10 brings a much-needed bye for the banged-up Chargers roster. They'll hope to end their five-game skid against the Chiefs in Week 11.

Interview with Richard - a British expat living in Taipei
Richard, a British expat living in Taipei, has moved to a slightly different beat since he relocated to Taiwan 18 years ago. Though he initially came to teach English, he now gives private piano lessons, and spends time freelance writing and editing. You may recognise him as the author of "Taipei Day Trips: I and II", and if not, all the better reason to familiarise yourself with the publications.
Otherwise, follow Richard on his blog, "Off the Beaten Path" and stay tuned for his guide to hiking trails in Taipei.
Read more about Taipei in the Expat Arrivals Taipei city guide or read more expat experiences of Taiwan
Q: Where are you originally from?
A: I'm from Kent, just southeast of London, England.
Q: Where are you living now?
A: I've lived in Guandu, a suburb on the northern edge of Taipei, the capital of Taiwan
Q: How long you have you lived here?
A: I've been in Taiwan for eighteen years.
Q: Did you move with a spouse/children?
A: I'm a confirmed bachelor!
Q: Why did you move; what do you do?
A: I came to Taiwan to find work as a teacher. I now teach piano privately and work as a freelance travel/music writer and editor.
About Taipei
Q: What do you enjoy most about Taipei, how's the quality of life in Taiwan?
A: Taipei is a wonderful place to live! Very friendly, convenient, safe and relatively inexpensive (by Western standards). Expats will find marvellous food; a city well connected with many fascinating destinations in southeast and eastern Asia, Australia and even the Pacific; and an urban centre surrounded by beautiful countryside that's fabulous for hiking.
Q: Any negatives? What do you miss most about home?
A: The culture is profoundly different from back home in England, and although exotic and constantly fascinating, still frustrating sometimes.
Q: Is Taipei safe?
A: From a security standpoint, Taipei is perhaps the safest big city I've ever been in, and I feel safe walking round anywhere in the city, even at night. On the other hand, many of the locals are pretty bad drivers and drive by a logic quite alien to most western drivers. There are lot of minor accidents on the roads, and driving is undoubtedly one of the most frustrating aspects of day-to-day life here. Luckily the city's public transport system is very good, and very foreigner-friendly these days, with comprehensive English language translations on bus, train and Mass Rail Transit (MRT) routes.
About living in Taipei
Q: Which are the best places/suburbs to live in Taipei as an expat?
A: For convenience, those with families tend to live in Tianmu, in the north, which is close to the main International schools (the American and European Schools); expats without kids often prefer the more modern surroundings of the new city centre, in eastern Taipei, near Taipei 101. Others live up on Yangmingshan, the mountainside to the north of the city, as it's cooler up there in summer, and the secondary school campus of the European School is located there.
I (and many others) prefer to live in one of the more traditional Taiwanese suburbs on the fringe of the city, where apartments are cheaper (even in the many new apartment blocks going up all the time), the air quality is better (although these days it's not bad in central Taipei either), the environment is nicer, with the hills within walking distance of my house, and the ever-growing MRT train lines put most of the city suburbs within 30 minutes of the main train station and the old city centre.
Q: How do you rate the standard of accommodation in Taiwan?
A: It's greatly improved in the last decade, with many old apartment blocks being pulled down in favour of modern high-rise apartments.
Q: What's the cost of living in Taiwan compared to home? What is cheap or expensive in particular?
A: Compared to England many things are much cheaper, food, especially.
Q: What are the locals like; do you mix mainly with other expats?
A: The locals are extremely friendly and curious about Westerners, and are increasingly able to communicate in English. It's easy enough to mix only with other foreigners outside of work, with various clubs and organisations designed to get expats together, but generally it's easy and very rewarding also to make local contacts as well.
About working in Taiwan
Q: Did you have a problem getting a work visa/permit?
A: Initially yes, because a degree is required for English teachers to teach here legally, and the Taiwanese aren't very aware of the English three-year degree system. I had to get proof that my music diploma was a degree equivalent before I was granted a working visa.
Q: What's the economic climate like in Taipei, is there plenty of work?
A: For English teachers, there's lots of work. My line of work, as a music teacher, also has plenty of scope for development, although in Taiwan, getting a job is made easier if you have the right contacts.
Q: How does the work culture differ from home?
A: Workplace politics are a complicated issue in Taiwan; the Taiwanese are very accommodating of Westerners, who aren't expected to know all the in's and out's of workplace etiquette here, but it pays to understand something about the complex system at work in the workplace environment, and there are resources available for helping Westerners understand a bit more about it.
Q: Did a relocation company help you with your move?
A: No. I moved myself!
Q: How would you rate the healthcare in Taiwan?
A: Pretty good. Medical professionals and facilities here are equal to those in the West, and the national health system here is much better than in the UK.
Q: Is there any other advice you like to offer new expat arrivals?
A: Taiwan has a huge amount to offer Westerners that take the time to discover the island and its culture. Nowadays, Taipei is a modern, westernised city and it's certainly possible to live a life similar, in many ways, to one back home in the West, but it's less frustrating to make a few simple adaptations to the local way of life. Many people end up falling in love with the island and staying far longer than expected. There's an enormous energy here which combined with the beauty of the island, the friendliness of the islanders (especially towards foreigners), and the intact and constantly fascinating Chinese culture, proves extremely stimulating; but first you'll need to get over the cultural differences.

max 275€ for participants coming from Czech Rep.
The main objective of the project is to enable the participating youth workers to teach young people they work with to be more conscious media consumers and to analyse critically the information they receive.
For this training particpants from Czech Republic, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden will join but we only need additonal participants from following countries: Czech Republic (2) and Poland (2) to apply for this offer.
Young people all around Europe spend a lot of time on media consumption every day, however, generally they are not prepared for conscious media consumption, since no one has taught them how to handle media smog, how to select valuable content and how to decode messages. The conveying of such knowledge generally does not happen in public education, thus, the task of preparing youth is put on youth workers. Unfortunately, most of the times, the youth workers themselves lack information and adequate training material for the teaching – both formally or in a non-formal manner – of media literacy.
The main objective of the project is to enable the participating youth workers to teach the young people they work with to be more conscious media consumers and to analyse critically the information they receive.
With the utilization of the methods and learning process, our main goal is to promote media literacy and to teach methods of teaching media literacy through non-formal methods. During the training, participants will analyse and process the theme of the project through presentations, group work, joint activities and individual activities, in a way that every participant will take part actively in every activity.

About Last Night...
We had a blast last night at Alleycatz Live Jazz Bar. We put on a wonderful show of Jazz, Blues and a little touch of R&B, courtesy of Juno award winning singer and song writer, Carlos Morgan. The Sean Stanley Trio (Sean Stanley, Bennett Young & Gabe Girard), provided the backdrop of "hot music", while vocalists Sokhna-Dior and Carlos Morgan, along with Sean Stanley set the microphones on fire. Classic songs such as "Mood Indigo", "Summertime", "Drown In My Own Tears", "Misty" and "Black Coffee" were performed with some real goodies such as "The Mooch", "Blues are Brewing" and a Sokhna-Dior and Carlos Morgan duet of Ellington's "I Ain't Got Nothing But The Blues" thrown in as a treat. Carlos Morgan and Sean Stanley also performed their original songs to the Alleycatz crowd, who we thank endlessly for supporting us. Thank you to the kind and helpful staff at Alleycatz, who were awesome. Also, a big thank you to Carlos Morgan, Gabe Girard, Bennett Young, Sean Stanley, Sokhna-Dior, the Dirty Jazz meetup.com group who came out, all our family and friends, and Mary, who worked the door for us! If you haven't been to Alleycatz before, I definitely recommend you check it out www.alleycatz.com ...they have amazing food, live music and a really cool, sexy, space. We hope to be back there soon.
Until then, make sure to keep updated here, and add us on twitter @DIRTYJAZZTO.

Syriza promises IMF Greece will "meet all obligations to all its creditors"
On Sunday, Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis flew to Washington on an unscheduled trip, where he met International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Christine Lagarde.
Varoufakis' trip was to assure Lagarde that the Syriza-led government will pay a €450 million loan repayment to the IMF due Thursday.
There had been growing speculation that Greece might not make the payment. Greece would have become the first advanced Western country to miss a repayment to the IMF, thus threatening to trigger a default on its debt of more than €315 billion. Figures within the Greek government had warned that Greece could run out of euros as early as April 9. At the weekend, Kostas Chrysogonos, a prominent Syriza member of the European parliament, said that failure to reach an agreement could result in a snap general election being called.
Following two hours of talks, Varoufakis said they had been "extremely productive" and that Greece "intends to meet all obligations to all its creditors, ad infinitum".
Syriza is "intent upon reforming Greece deeply," he added.
Even as the IMF, European Union (EU) and European Central Bank (ECB) tighten their financial stranglehold over Greece, cutting its government and banks off from international money markets and standard ECB funding, Syriza's first priority remains to pay them off.
The upcoming €450 million payment to the IMF was treated in much of the media as critical to a resolution of the entire debt crisis. The reality is this payment is a drop in the ocean, even in terms of the overall debt Greece owes just to the IMF, let alone its other creditors.
More than €9 billion must be paid back to the IMF this year alone. Other debt repayment is imminent. On Wednesday Athens must also refinance €1.4 billion of Treasury bills, (very short-term debt), due for repayment the following week.
On Friday, the Telegraph quoted an unnamed Greek government source who said Athens is drawing up contingency plans for the launch of a new parallel currency. "They want to put us through the ritual of humiliation and force us into sequestration. They are trying to put us in a position where we either have to default to our own people or sign up to a deal that is politically toxic for us. If that is their objective, they will have to do it without us," said the source.
The newspaper said that the plans were being considered, "even though Syriza would rather reach an amicable accord within EMU [European Monetary Union]".
Varoufakis discussed with Legarde the latest austerity measures drawn up by the government. Greece must have its proposals accepted by the EU, ECB and IMF as a condition for receiving further loans, including an outstanding €7.2 billion required to make any further debt repayments and satisfy the terms of the four-month austerity extension agreement signed on February 20. Every proposal made since then has been rejected as having not sufficiently accelerated the assault on the living standards of the working class.
Varoufakis stressed his government wants a deal in place by the next meeting of European finance ministers in Riga later this month. On Monday he told Greek daily Naftemporiki, "At the Eurogroup [meeting] of April 24 there must be a preliminary conclusion (of the talks), as per the Eurogroup accord on February 20."
Legarde said that Varoufakis expressed his "commitment to improve the technical teams' ability to work with the authorities to conduct the necessary due diligence in Athens, and to enhance the policy discussions with the teams in Brussels, both of which will resume promptly on Monday."
The role of the technical teams is to lay the basis for an overall austerity deal to be finalised in June.
On Monday, Varoufakis followed up his meeting with Lagarde by holding discussions with US Treasury officials.
Varoufakis' trip to the US was organised just days before Syriza Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras' Wednesday meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Prior to February's agreement, US President Barack Obama expressed his concern that Greece's ongoing economic crisis was a major destabilising factor in the region. Greece plays a pivotal role as NATO's southernmost flank in Europe. With NATO ratcheting up its provocations against Russia and China, the US is concerned over Syriza's declared intention to forge closer ties with both those countries.
On Sunday, the leader of Syriza's Left Platform, which represents about 30 of its 149 parliamentary deputies, said Greece's creditors were treating it with "unbelievable prejudice and as a colony".
Panagiotis Lafazanis, as energy minister, has just returned from a trip to meet high level Russian government and business figures. He added, "A Greek-Russian agreement would help our country greatly in negotiations with lenders."
Syriza is seeking to use Greece's geostrategic importance in order to exploit antagonisms between the US, Europe and Russia.
Shortly after Syriza's election, Tsipras invited a Chinese government delegation to Athens. A Greek government mission was warmly received in China last month, during which a "China-Greece maritime cooperation year" was launched. China has extensive investments in the Greek port of Piraeus, and the deal was the first ever maritime agreement between the two countries.
The talks between Tsipras and Putin are to cover all aspects of policy, particularly Greek-Russian energy cooperation. Tsipras is visiting Moscow again, on May 9, as part of events held to commemorate Russia's defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. Last week, Tsipras said Greece was opposed to a continuation of EU sanctions against Russia over Ukraine.
On Friday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, "Relations between Moscow and the European Union will be discussed in the light of Brussels' policy of sanctions and Athens' quite cold attitude to this policy."
Tsipras' trip has caused consternation between Greece and the EU. German news magazine Spiegel published a report this weekend citing the comments of German European Parliament President Martin Schulz to a German newspaper. Schulz warned the Greek government that Greece should not jeopardise its ties with the EU by seeking Russian support.
Spiegel also cited the comments of Gunther Kirchbaum, a senior figure in Chancellor Angela Merkel's governing Christian Democratic Union who warned, "Whoever needs help should turn to Brussels and not Moscow."
An article in Monday's Financial Times, centring on the implications of Greece's turn to Russia, summed up the concerns in ruling circles. It stated, "The big fear, in the words of one suspicious senior [European] official, is a 'Trojan horse' plot, where Russia extends billions in rescue loans in exchange for a Greek veto on sanctions—a move that would kill western unity over Ukraine."
The FT warned, "No such shock is expected this week. But as Athens nears the brink of insolvency there is growing alarm that Mr Tsipras's radical left government might turn to Moscow in desperation. It would set off the biggest panic over Greece's strategic alignment since the 1947 US Marshall Plan, initiated to save the country from communist fighters that Mr Tsipras' Syriza party lionise to this day."

Multiplier effect is an effect in economics, in which an increase in spending produces an increase in national income and consumption greater than the initial amount spent. If MPS = 0.20, then multiplier is m = 1/mps = 5, so an increase in autonomous investment of $100 will lead to an increase in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 100*5 = $500.
1. How has the PPI behaved since the year 2000?

Memorial in San Bernardino marks four years since terrorist attack

By Emmanuel MorganStaff Writer
The more than 1,400 days since Yvette Velasco died at the hands of two terrorists in the San Bernardino attack hasn't buffered the grief for the family she left behind. They said it's actually worse.
Every time there's another mass tragedy, Velasco's mother and sister say they live through the pain again. When Velasco's mother, Marie, watched news coverage of the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Fla., and the shooting at a Walmart in El Paso in August, she heard of other mothers searching for their children, only to learn they were killed. That mentally transports her back to where she was four years ago, she said.
"When you hear parents on TV saying, 'I can't find my kid,' I know what that felt like," she said. "We know that nightmare because we've lived it. It's indescribable."
There are ways to cope with the pain even though it is permanent, the family said. On Monday, the four-year anniversary of when Velasco and 13 others were killed, Cal State San Bernardino held a memorial for the victims. Speaking before the crowd, Velasco's sister, Erica Porteous, said these moments help her family though hard times.
"For our family, not a day goes by that we don't feel the loss," Porteous said. "But this brings us comfort."
On Dec. 2, 2015, a San Bernardino County employee and his wife marched into an office holiday party at the Inland Regional Center; they were clad in black and armed with assault rifles and pistols. They killed 14 people and injured 22 others. Authorities killed them in a shootout.
Velasco, who worked as an environmental health specialist, was 27.
Five of the victims — Robert Adams, Juan Espinoza, Shannon Johnson, Michael Wetzel and Velasco — were Cal State alumni. Three years ago, the university created a "Peace Garden" to honor the victims. It was built just steps away from the College of Natural Sciences, where the five alumni graduated.
At the beginning and end of Monday's service, a faculty member rang a bell in the center of the stone-accented garden 14 times, once for each of the fallen. It remains silent for the rest of the year.
Sastry Pantula, dean of the college of natural sciences, joined the university in 2018. Though he didn't know the victims, he said they are always on his mind.
The garden, he said, has become important to the campus. His faculty and students sometimes hold meetings there. Occasionally, he will eat lunch there and meditate. Pantula said it's imperative to remember the lives lost, not just on the anniversary.
"When you Google San Bernardino, the first thing you read about is the shooting," Pantula said. "But you can't live in fear, and it is good that we are promoting peace.
"The biggest worry for me is seeing people reading the news and becoming immune, saying 'That's just another shooting.' People are getting thick skin and aren't paying attention to the violence around us."
Dressed in dark clothes with sunglasses covering her eyes, Porteous held a picture of her sister with her black graduation tassel dangling from the frame. After the ceremony, which included brief remarks from Pantula, Porteous and William Vandyke, who works in the college, family members of Velasco and other victims laid white roses at the base of the bell. Porteous said she wants the public to know that her sister was a loving person, and she is thankful that her memory is being kept alive.
"I think that this garden and the fact that the Cal State community continue to remember the alumni, and that their deaths were not in vain, can hopefully bring a sense of awareness," Porteous said.

Autore del cosiddetto Regolamento Celli, fu assassinato da sedicente mano anarchica nel suo ufficio di Procuratore Generale del Re presso la Corte d'Appello di Milano.

Biografia
Nato a Capestrano (AQ), nell'alta valle del Tirino, da Michele e Maria Cantalini, è il quarto di dieci figli.
Dopo aver compiuto gli studi di legge presso l'Università di Napoli, intraprende la carriera di magistrato raggiungendone i più alti vertici.
Dapprima giudice presso il tribunale di Lanciano, nel 1864 è nominato procuratore del re a Catanzaro, per proseguire la sua carriera in qualità di sostituto procuratore generale di Corte d'Appello a Trani (1866), applicato alla procura generale della Corte di Cassazione a Torino (1880), sostituto procuratore generale di Cassazione a Roma (1883), procuratore generale di Corte d'Appello a Catania (1886). La sua ultima destinazione sarà presso la Corte d'Appello di Milano dove svolgerà il delicato incarico di Procuratore generale. Nel 1853 sposa a l'Aquila Maria Camerini, figlia del procuratore regio  Vincenzo Camerini.

Il Regolamento Celli
Gennaro Celli, su incarico del governo allora presieduto da Agostino Depretis, si occupò di redigere un nuovo ordinamento giudiziario nelle colonie africane d'Italia. Il regolamento, che entrò di fatto in vigore il 7 agosto 1886, in realtà non fu mai approvato in via ufficiale dal Parlamento italiano, né successivamente siglato da un decreto ministeriale o provvedimento governatoriale. Tuttavia, ebbe sempre tacita e costante applicazione in terra d'Abissinia.Con questo ordinamento, destinato a disciplinare ex novo l'amministrazione della giustizia nel possedimento di Massaua, si introdusse la figura del giudice ordinario con funzioni di presidente del tribunale civile e giurisdizione su tutto il territorio sottoposto all'autorità del Supremo Comando Militare, nonché la competenza in primo grado per gli italiani e gli indigeni nelle cause civili e penali minori, le contravvenzioni di polizia e i reati sino a 3 mesi di reclusione e 300 lire di multa. In considerazione della lieve entità della pena si negava la possibilità del ricorso in appello. I reati di maggiore gravità, a loro volta, potevano essere giudicati, sempre senza possibilità ulteriore d'appello, soltanto se rinviati dalla Commissione d'Inchiesta istituita presso il Tribunale Militare.
Con la nuova visione giuridica voluta dal Celli vennero meno i due principi basilari della doppia giurisdizione e legislazione: l'unica giurisdizione indigena riconosciuta era quella del Cadi.

Omicidio
Il 17 gennaio 1895, mentre si trovava seduto alla sua scrivania, veniva ucciso da tal Antonio Realini, originario di Laveno e di vaghe idee anarchiche.
Introdottosi nello studio del Procuratore con la scusa di una supplica e presentatosi sotto il falso nome di Attilio Bellocchio, il Realini attentava alla vita dell'alto magistrato, pugnalandolo con un lungo coltello che portava nascosto nella manica del cappotto. Gennaro Celli, raggiunto alla tempia e al collo, moriva dissanguato pochi minuti dopo, senza riuscire a proferire parola.
Prontamente arrestato da un carabiniere, il Realini veniva condotto in carcere dove volutamente si chiudeva in un ostinato silenzio. Ben noto alle patrie galere, da dove entrava ed usciva con sorprendente frequenza per condanne relative a furti, rapine, estorsioni, oltraggi e ribellioni, l'assassino sarà condannato all'ergastolo e all'interdizione perpetua dai pubblici uffici. Se dapprima si ritenne che fosse il sicario di un gruppo di anarchici che aveva conosciuto in occasione della sua permanenza nel carcere di Parma, si giunse infine alla conclusione che arrivò a commettere il crimine su slancio individuale, per motivi di vendetta contro il sistema giudiziario di cui si riteneva essere vittima.
La notizia della morte del Celli provocò una forte ondata di commozione in Italia e, soprattutto nella città di Milano, che gli tributò grandi onori e cinque giorni di lutto cittadino.
L'allora Presidente del Consiglio Francesco Crispi inviò al Prefetto di Milano Antonio Winspeare un telegramma in cui precisava: "I funerali del Comm. Celli, morto vittima del dovere, saranno fatti a spese dello Stato. In quel giorno il Tribunale e la Corte non siederanno. Tutte le autorità ed i funzionari accompagneranno il feretro. Il lutto per l'esimio magistrato è un lutto nazionale"

Ancor più sentito fu il dispaccio di condoglianze, che a nome di Sua Maestà Umberto I, inviava il generale Emilio Ponzio Vaglia:

Sig.ra Maria Camerini, vedova Celli

S. M. il Re intese con profondo sentimento di raccapriccio e di dolore l'atroce delitto da cui fu spento il comm. Celli, di Lei consorte. L'Augusto Sovrano si associa alle universali testimonianze d'affetto e di onore che vengono date all'illustre estinto, che, soldato della legge, moriva per la difesa della Società e della giustizia. S. M. il Re manda a Lei ed alla Sua famiglia le più affettuose condoglianze in segno di vivissima simpatia e di costante benevolenza.

Il regg. il Ministero della Real Casa, ten-gener. Ponzio Vaglia"

Gennaro Celli è sepolto nel Cimitero monumentale di Milano e più precisamente nella galleria inferiore della crociera destra, all'angolo con la galleria confinante con il Reparto Ebraico. Una lapide con iscrizione e foto ricorda la tragica morte.
