Tomorrow will mark a milestone in the world of RSS marketing: Rok Hrastnik of marketingstudies.net will release his 550 page e-book (apparently there will be a shorter version :-), 'Unleash the Marketing & Publishing Power of RSS'.
I'm really looking forward to the reaction of others...I read an early draft a few weeks ago and was amazed at the depth of research done in this work, including 33 RSS expert and practitioners interviews (me included), more than 50 examples and case studies, and practical step-by-step advice. I do know that Robin Good agrees that this guide is a big deal:
"There is nothing like this I have seen before. This is a pretty monumental guide..."
Rok, this is a great contribution. Well done!

Product Description
This vintage leather arm chair is an unusual style. I'd say it is a cross between a traditional wing back and a high back tub chair. The combination is quite pleasing to look at and very comfortable to sit in! This chair was made in England around the year 1990.
Vintage Leather Arm Chair
Featuring a dark brown leather, this arm chair has a regal look. The leather is protected with a clear top coat which has a nice sheen to it. This comfortable sitting arm chair rests on four sturdy mahogany wood feet. The front feet are turned and the back splayed (a classic design). Rolled arm rests provide a traditional look to the piece and brass nail heads can be found here and on the wings. The main seat cushion is removable for easy cleaning. The cushion in the lumbar area does not come off.
The interior measurements of the seating area are 18″ wide x 19″ deep. The seat cushion is 20″ tall.
This vintage leather arm chair is in excellent condition. The only wear we can find is a small surface scratch to the clear coat on the right arm chair. We were unable to get this to show in the photos and it is hard to see in anything but overhead light glare. Otherwise this piece remains clean, sturdy, and ready to be used right away. Don't miss out on such a gorgeous vintage leather arm chair!

CITY HALL 100 Queen W.

• VSVSVS: 1-855-IS IT ART (1-855-474-8278) (performance). If you're perplexed by the titular question, you can call and speak with an adviser tonight or visit the art collective's call centre headquarters at City Hall.

Mumbai through the decade, as seen by the AIB team
We caught up with these four satirists over lunch to learn what they felt the city got right in the last decade.tv Updated: Jul 18, 2015 13:51 IST
We had barely walked into Jamjar Diner in Andheri (W) on a sunny afternoon, when we saw Ashish Shakya and Gursimran Khamba get accosted by a young fan for a picture. This wasn't a selfie. It was a real photograph; one that involves inconveniencing another human being to stand up, hold the phone with both hands, click a picture, and not feature disproportionately in it. All that trouble, only for AIB (Shakya and Khamba, along with Tanmay Bhat and Rohan Joshi comprise the famous comedy collective, All India Back**d or AIB).
Yet, all of them were unbelieving when we told them we wanted to put them on the cover of HT Café. They admit they "haven't understood this ascendancy" of theirs.
The fact is that it is impossible to survive this metropolis without a sense of humour. The rate at which the city's stand-up comedy scene has flourished since 2005 is proof of that. It is possibly one of the most powerful forms of expression to have emerged in the last decade of Mumbai's popular culture.
So, for this special anniversary edition, we caught up with these four satirists over lunch to learn what they felt the city got right in the last decade.
Mumbai's events scene? Terrible, terrible, terrible
Tanmay Bhat: That's why nobody holds big concerts here.
Rohan Joshi: Terrible, terrible, terrible. The taxation is ridiculous. I think it is very shortsighted of the government. If you cut the entertainment tax, logically, and you had 10 big acts coming in, you would make the same amount of money than if you keep the entertainment tax high, and one act comes every two years.
Tanmay: It is really a pity because if you want to be the cultural hub, you should logically be open. Look at New York, USA, everything debuts there because it is so much easier to do that, and you have such a diverse audience. Here, it is just not possible.
Gursimran Khamba: It's prohibitive.
Need of the hour: More performance spaces
Tanmay: We practically have five decent auditoriums, all of which have been taken over by the theatre mafia. So, a few big theatre companies, who say saal mein 20 Saturday mereko chahiye, mera play nikalne wala hai, kya play hai, pata nahi, toh main book karke rakhega (companies say they want 20 Saturdays in a year because their play is about to come out. What play? They don't know.) So, if a stand-up comedian wants to do a show, you go to St Andrew's (auditorium in Bandra), every Saturday is taken for the next 15 or 20 weeks, so how the hell are we supposed to perform?
Rohan: Then you have 800-seater auditoriums from which you go straight to the NSCI (National Sports Club of India), which is a 5,000-seater. There is nothing in the middle.
Tanmay: Then the prices are the next level. Licensing is something else.
Rohan: Doesn't feel like a cultural capital, bureaucratically at all. It is a cultural capital in spite of the government, and not because of it.
When Mumbai became an international joke
Tanmay: Jerry Seinfeld was an example. How do you have the world's biggest comedian almost come to your city? [His gig was cancelled] that too because of parking!
Rohan: If Jerry Seinfeld comes to India, and has a good show, he is going to get into a room with 10 other really famous comics one day, and say, "Guys, you've got to come to India. It's amazing."
Tanmay: How do you think we have had all these people [coming down]? When a Bill Burr says yes to India, it's because a Russell Peters has said, "Go, it is fun." And when the biggest comedian in the world says no… in my head, now Chris Rock, Louis CK, all of them are never going to come.
Rohan: And why, because the police commissioner and the chief minister got into a fight? Go to hell guys.
Tanmay: It's an international joke that he couldn't come because of parking.
Rohan: Every single international artiste who has come down since the Roast has made a joke about censorship as their first joke. Russell Brand too. And it's not like anybody wants America's approval or anything, but you want a cultural scene where artistes are coming from all over the world, and not petrified of coming, because of parking.
'Mumbai Film Festival has not scaled up in a significant way'
Gursimran: We need to improve the Mumbai Film Festival.
Rohan: The festival has not scaled up in a significant way. You should be the premier film festival of the country, and of the subcontinent because you are the biggest film industry, outside of China. You are the centre of that film industry in the city, so why is the biggest film festival happening in Goa? Logically, when it happens, this city should go to town about it.
Gursimran: But the thing is, from an outsider's perspective, it (news about MAMI) again seems prohibitive because you had to wait in line for this film because ticketing was all over the place, this was a mess, etc. Zoning is the need of the hour for a 24x7 nightlife in Mumbai.
Rohan: We need better zoning. We need three zones, like Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), town and Lower Parel. BKC is empty at night. You're not disturbing residents. Imagine if you could just patrol those streets, you wouldn't have to patrol the entire city. You have to just make sure those streets are safe. Then in that radius, you manage everything from taxi stands, to drunken driving, to nakabandi at every single end. You will be able to do it. You can do it.
Gursimran: It might have to do with police shortfall, and work hours.
Rohan: In 2003 – 2004, 4am and 5am was…
Ashish Shakya: Dhoble (Vasant Dhoble; former assistant commissioner of police in Mumbai) got a lot of hate. But one of the things he said was that I'm going after places that don't have licenses, for example a tonne of places in Bandra are fire hazards. Like, I would never set foot into The Big Nasty, because f**k that place.
Rohan: I went to that place once, and I will never go again.|
Ashish: They shouldn't have a license to operate. Where is the fire exit?
Tanmay: And the staircase is also the smoking zone.
Laughter club
The biggest emergence of the past decade: stand-up comedy!
Rohan: It was very limited back then. We had a few people like Vir (Das; comedian) and some others. But there wasn't a scene.
Tanmay: There was also Culture Shoq, which was, then, Bombay Elektrik Projekt.
Ashish: Ham Night (Ham-ateur night organised by Das).
Tanmay: Ham Night was the Yash Raj version of what Bombay Elektrik Projekt was running.
Rohan: We had no clue that it (stand-up) could be a career. It was something we did on weekends.
Ashish: This came after Russell Peters.
Rohan: It all began with that special of his going on Torrents. For the first time everyone saw a brown guy do stand-up.
Gursimran: Great Indian Laughter Challenge (it first went on air around 2005) was also on TV…
Tanmay: Also, by then there was a slight culture of going out to do something in the evening, as opposed to either sitting at home, drinking or watching movies. With places like Café Goa and Blue Frog, that culture started to come into the city, to go out to watch performance art of any kind… Now there is an open-mic night every day.
Ashish: You can attend a comedy show every single day of the week in this city.
Rohan: There isn't even that much theatre sometimes.
Gursimran: There definitely isn't.
Rohan: And that's nuts; the theatre scene has been around for so long.
A school for aspiring stand-up comics? Might be a reality soon!
Gursimran: We want to start our own school... just about teaching comedy and stuff like that. The idea is to teach different forms of comedy, from improv to stand-up to making videos, to people who just want to do sound and podcast. Like in the US and Canada, they have three-year programmes, where you learn in the morning, and every night, you go to a different stand-up comedy club to try out what you've done all day. Technically, if you have to be a comedian, you don't have to join a programme, but I can see how it can be valuable for a lot of people.
Tanmay: Ideally, we'll also have our dedicated comedy club by then, which runs and functions like Comedy Club in America… The idea is to legitimise comedy in some sense… there is no academia about comedy in India. The idea is, in 10 years, to start that culture where comedy is taken seriously.
Looking forward
10 things Mumbai is yet to achieve
Rohan: Less traffic. More Metro lines.
Ashish: Better property prices.
Rohan: That's not going to happen.
Ashish: Flooding to be eliminated or reduced massively. Upgrade drainage.
Tanmay: More performance spaces.
Rohan: Rail roads that don't just run north-south would be nice.
Ashish: More performers for sure. To the point
Amitabh Bachchan meeting his fans outside his home in Mumbai.
Amitabh Bachchan has often said that meeting his fans, who gather outside his Juhu residence every Sunday, gives him a feeling of fulfilment. The crazy traffic, however, as a result, is a commuter's nightmare. Mumbai special
10 things the city has got right in the last 10 years.
Rohan: Being next to the sea was great.
Ashish: I loved how we added zeroes to property prices. We're very good at that.
Tanmay: The Metro, and the Sea Link.
Rohan: We got the Eastern Freeway right… The lady who went on the wrong side of the road got the Eastern Freeway wrong.
Ashish: We cracked down on drunken driving! That we totally got right.
Gursimran: Nobody gets caught after we say this.
Tanmay: I think they have figured Juhu Beach out better than what it was.
Rohan: Visarjan traffic! It is much better than it used to be. What else…
Gursimran: Two IMAX theatres. Pehle Wadala jaana padta tha, woh bahut door tha (we had to go to Wadala initially, which was too far).
Ashish: Microbreweries.
Rohan: Moving offices north, from Nariman Point to Bandra Kurla Complex… in terms of the city demographically, moving north.
Gursimran: Public transport is much better compared to a lot of other places.
The Eastern Freeway has been one of the things well done.
Rohan: But let's not include that in the past 10 years. It has always been good.
Ashish: Like our autos are better than the Metros in most parts.
Gursimran: Amitabh Bachchan ke ghar ke saamne traffic kam hua kya? (Has the traffic outside Amitabh Bachchan's house reduced?)
Tanmay: Has the monsoon gotten better?
Ashish: Significantly worse. Our response to it, that is.
Rohan: There was a story in the news the other day about how there are 10 new spots in the city that never flooded before, but they do now.
Tanmay: I think we should give Metro half a point for existing, and the other half for looking like it does.
Ashish: Terminal 2!
Roast target
Five famous people in this city you would like to Roast?
Rohan: Aamir Khan, with or without his consent. Who else…
Gursimran: This is so easy.
Tanmay: There are so many. Mukesh Ambani. We would love to Roast him.
Gursimran: Then next day, do a much smaller version for Anil Ambani.
Rohan: With cheaper tickets...
Gursimran: Just to keep the family thing intact.
Rohan: Sachin Tendulkar. That would be amazing content.
Gursimran: It will be tough to Roast him. What will you say?
Tanmay: We should do the Roast, and then just take really long to end it. And get Vinod Kambli to be the Roastmaster. That'll be hilarious.
Tanmay: I think Rakesh Maria (Mumbai police commissioner) would be fun.
Everyone: No, no, no…
Tanmay: I think Aditya Thackeray is cool as of now.
Rohan: Raj Thackeray?
Tanmay: We're not saying it. Lata Mangeshkar?
Gursimran: No, please don't say that either.
Tanmay: Amitabh Bachchan.
Everyone: Yes, yes.

Distressed homes - foreclosures and short sales sold at deep discounts - accounted for 22 percent of November sales (12 percent were foreclosures and 10 percent were short sales), down from 24 percent in October and 29 percent in November 2011.
Unfortunately the NAR uses an unscientific survey to estimate distressed sales. However CoreLogic estimates the percent of distressed sales each month - and they were kind enough to send me their series. The first graph below shows CoreLogic's estimate of the distressed share starting in October 2007.
Note that the percent distressed increases every winter. This is because distressed sales happen all year, and conventional sales follow the normal seasonal pattern of stronger in the spring and summer, and weaker in the winter.
The seasonal impact of distressed sales is why the Case-Shiller seasonal adjustment increased in recent years.
Also note that the percent of distressed sales over the last 6 months is at the lowest level since mid-2008, but still very high. This is the lowest percent of distressed sales for November since 2007.
The second graph shows the NAR existing home series using the CoreLogic share of distressed sales.
Using this method (NAR's estimate for sales, CoreLogic estimate of share), conventional sales have recovered significantly. The NAR reported total sales were up 14.5% year-over-year in November, but using this method, conventional sales were up almost 20.9% year-over-year.

- The Lakers are in the news regarding issues of tampering yet again after Magic Johnson sought to give advice to Philadelphia 76ers' guard Ben Simmons. Could the attempt solicit
Another day. Another tampering controversy involving the Los Angeles Lakers.
On Monday, NBA spokesperson Mike Bass informed media that the league is investigating possible communications between Philadelphia Sixers guard Ben Simmons and Lakers employees. Such conversations, Bass notes, might have run afoul of league rules.
Those "rules" refer to anti-tampering provisions found in Articles 35 and 35A of the league's constitution. Owners, general managers, coaches, scouts, referees and—yes—players are forbidden from using enticement, inducement or encouragement to persuade any person who is under contract with another team to join the tampering team.
Potential punishments for tampering range from the symbolic, to the modest, to the franchise-altering. They include: warnings, fines, suspensions, forfeiture of draft picks, transfer of draft picks from the tampering team to the harmed team and a prohibition of the tampering team from acquiring a particular player.
A called-off meeting between Johnson and Simmons
Over the weekend, Lakers president of basketball operations Magic Johnson told media that he wanted to share some "big guard" secrets with Simmons. Certain aspects of the 22-year-old Sixers star's game have drawn comparisons to those of Johnson. Johnson, of course, is one of the greatest players in NBA history. Despite standing 6'9, Johnson primarily played point guard for the Lakers during the 1980s and 90s. He could also immediately pivot to, and excel at, any of the other four positions on the court—even center. It would be unfair to compare any player to a generational talent like Johnson, but the 6'10 Simmons plays guard at a similar size and shares some of the same gifts.
MCCANN: Could Pelicans Run Afoul of NBA's Anti-Tanking, Anti-Resting Rules After Keeping Anthony Davis?
Given that a player of Johnson's caliber is the truly "best-case" scenario for Simmons, it makes sense that Simmons would covet Johnson's advice. Simmons probably also values the fact that Johnson is a former coach who has provided advice to younger players at various times over the last few decades.
Johnson revealed over the weekend that Simmons had reached out to an unnamed person with the Lakers with a request to meet with Johnson this upcoming summer. Johnson says he expressed a willingness to meet with Simmons, who can become a restricted free agent in the summer of 2020. Wisely, the 59-year-old Lakers executive also cautioned that any forthcoming meeting would need to be approved first by the NBA.
On Monday, Sixers general manager Elton Brand revealed in a radio interview that he had already rejected a proposed meeting between Simmons and Johnson. Brand explained that Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka had reached out to him over a month ago and relayed Simmons's interest in speaking with Johnson as well as with other Hall of Famers. Brand says he told Pelinka "no." It's unclear if Johnson's comments reflect Johnson not being aware of Brand's earlier rejection or if Simmons is now attempting another bid to meet with Johnson.
The Lakers, for their part, issued a statement on Monday in response to the NBA announcing the investigation. The Lakers' depiction of events elaborates on the one offered by Brand. According to the Lakers, a Sixers employee (who The Los Angeles Times reports is thought to be Allen Lumpkin, the Sixers' director of basketball administration) emailed an employee of Lakers last November with a request from Simmons that he speak with Johnson. The request was then relayed to Pelinka, who in turn contacted Brand. While Brand says he rejected this request, the Lakers' statement clarifies the circumstances of that rejection to reflect favorably on Pelinka and Johnson. According to the statement, Pelinka prudently demanded from Brand that the Sixers pre-approve, in writing, any meeting between Simmons and Johnson before it occurs. The statement also asserts that the last interaction between Brand and Pelinka on this subject "was the end of the matter." However, the fact that the NBA has informed media of an ongoing investigation indicates the matter is not over.
The Lakers and their recent history of tampering
Johnson and his Lakers colleagues need no introduction to the league's anti-tampering policy. Last year the NBA fined the Lakers $50,000 for tampering. The fine was imposed because, during an ESPN interview, Johnson identified similarities between his game and that of Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.
It wasn't Johnson's first foray into the world of tampering.
A year earlier, Johnson came under fire for his statements during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Although he appeared to be only semi-serious and had been joking with Kimmel, Johnson acknowledged that he would love if the Lakers could acquire Paul George. The NBA didn't fine Johnson or the Lakers for the Kimmel Show exchange but issued a warning. Yet several months later, the NBA fined the Lakers $500,000 for unauthorized contact between Pelkina and George's agent, Aaron Mintz. The severity of the punishment reflected the Lakers failing to heed the warning for Johnson's remarks.
The Lakers, as I detail in another The Crossover legal column, are the subject of a separate NBA investigation into whether their efforts to trade for New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis have involved tampering. LeBron James and Davis employ the same agent, Rich Paul of Klutch Sports. There is unsubstantiated speculation that James, who in December told ESPN's Dave McMenamin that it would be "amazing" and "incredible" if the Lakers could trade for Davis, has used Paul as an intermediary to persuade Davis to play for the Lakers. The NBA recently fined Davis, who is under contract with the Pelicans through the 2019-20 season, $50,000 for using Paul to convey a public trade request.
MANNIX: Russell Westbrook Isn't in the MVP Conversation. Why Not?
The NBA has never fined or suspended a player for tampering. This is in spite of players openly sharing their not-so-secret plans to recruit players who are under contract with other teams. Either type of sanction, though, is technically authorized by Article 35.
It's not yet clear if James is connected to the league's investigation into Simmons and the Lakers. However, it's worth noting that, like James and Davis, Simmons employs Paul as his agent.
Two conflicting roles for Johnson and what they reveal about the anti-tampering policy
Johnson finds himself in an inherently awkward situation as both a living legend and a Lakers executive. It is customary for a young NBA star to seek the counsel and guidance of a current or future Hall of Famer, even one connected to a rival team.
Take Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum. Last summer the 20-year-old former Duke standout sought the wisdom of Kobe Bryant on how to improve his game. This is in spite of Bryant's longtime association to the Celtics' archrival, the Lakers. For his part, Bryant has discussed how during his 20 seasons in the NBA he gained important advice from Michael Jordan. This was in spite of Jordan playing on teams (and later owning a team) that competed against Bryant and the Lakers. There are numerous other examples of young stars smartly desiring the guidance of the greatest players ever, regardless of which teams previously employed those players.
Yet by virtue of his current employment, Johnson can't take on a mentor or fatherly role to Simmons and other players who are under contract to other franchises. This is true even though Simmons, who would have much to gain from speaking with Johnson, suffers the accompanying consequence. Indeed, a coaching conversation between Johnson and Simmons would almost certainly collide with the NBA's anti-tampering policy. The conversation could easily be perceived as a trade of sorts, with Johnson improving Simmons's game in exchange for Johnson becoming encouraged or induced to one day join the Lakers.
The league has strictly enforced anti-tampering as it relates to owners and team executives. This is true even when an owner or executive merely mentions another player's name, never mind tried to speak with him.
FELDMAN: After His Postgame Media Rant, Kevin Durant Went on a Media...Tour?
To take a very recent illustration, consider the NBA's decision Monday to fine Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry $50,000 for tampering. During a media interview, Johnson noted, "we hope it would be players like Anthony Davis and others who want to come to Milwaukee." Lasry made the remark upon being prompted to respond to a report that Davis would be willing to sign a contract with the Bucks.
Keep in mind, Lasry hadn't spoken with Davis or, it seems, done anything improper. Also, Lasry's comments hardly revealed a covert plot—the entire NBA community knows that every NBA team with a chance of acquiring Davis, particularly those with whom he might be willing to re-sign, will aggressively pursue him. Yet Lasry's statement nonetheless violated the NBA's anti-tampering policy. This is because it encourages a player who is under contract with another team to join another team.
The NBA's desire to enforce its anti-tampering policy might at times seem over-reaching or unnecessary. However, that desire underscores the joint venture quality of competing teams within a league.
While in most business environments employers can readily "poach" employees of other companies, a pro league is structured differently. NBA teams, of course, compete both on and off the court. But they also agree to certain rules that restrain competition in order to enhance the league's interests. The league believes it functions better, and enjoys more overall competition, when teams accept certain rules of competition.
Those rules are found throughout the NBA's business model. Take an entry draft that bestows one team with the exclusive right to sign an otherwise free agent college star. The draft also "rewards" the worst teams with the right to select the best players in hopes that every team eventually succeeds. Or take the salary cap. The cap prevents large market teams and high-spending owners from doing what they might individually prefer to do—offer as much money as necessary to sign the best players. The same rationale is used to justify the league's anti-tampering policy. It restrains teams' individual capacities to recruit other teams' employees because such efforts might prove disruptive to the league and damage the NBA's brand. These rules are also immunized from relevant types of federal antitrust scrutiny when they are collectively bargained with the players' union. For the NBA, the league and those who work in it accept and agree to follow the anti-tampering policy.
Will the Simmons investigation trace back to LeBron, and what would that mean for the Lakers?
The NBA is also clearly watching the Lakers and how the organization intends to build a championship team around James. While James still dominates on the court, he is 34 years old and has missed 18 games this season due to injuries. To the extent the Lakers see a window of opportunity to win a championship with James, the team probably needs to assemble a championship roster within the next near or two. The fact that James, Davis and Simmons all share the same agent is certainly not lost on the NBA. While Paul, as a player agent, is not subject to the league's anti-tampering policy, a player who directs him to tamper would be governed by that policy.
ROLLINS: NBA Power Rankings: Lakers Next Steps After Drama-Filled Trae Deadline
The Lakers need to be mindful that the NBA could impose a far more severe punishment for tampering than a fine. In 1995, the NBA found the Miami Heat guilty of tampering after the franchise successfully hired away coach Pat Riley from the Knicks. As a punishment intended to make the Knicks "whole again," the Heat were ordered to transfer a first-round pick to the Knicks.
Here, if NBA commissioner Adam Silver finds that the Lakers have again violated the anti-tampering policy, Silver could reason that the franchise is not really "getting the message" through mere fines. Silver could elevate the penalty type and take away a Lakers draft pick, transfer a Lakers draft pick to a team harmed by the tampering, or—and this might prove catastrophic for the Lakers' near-term championship aspirations—prohibit the Lakers from acquiring players whom their tampering targeted. Such players would presumably include Davis and Simmons.
The Crossover will keep you posted on all major tampering developments.

Solar leases and PPAs allow consumers to host solar power systems that are owned by solar companies and purchase back the electricity created. Customers enter into arrangements that enable them to have reduced electricity expenses without regular monthly funding settlements. In most cases, that implies placing no money to go solar. Solar leases require taken care of monthly settlements that are calculated using the approximated amount of power the system will generate. With a solar PPA, customers agree to acquire the power created by the system at an established price per kilowatt-hour of electrical power generated. With both of these choices, however, you are not entitled to tax advantages since you do not own the solar energy system.
Navigating the landscape of solar financing can be hard. The Clean Energy States Partnership released a guide to assist house owners recognize their options, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each. Download and install the overview.
Just how can I discover state incentives as well as tax obligation breaks that will aid me go solar?

Escapism through Entertainment
Charity Work
Die Rise Guide
Die Rise
The first three steps are the same for each quest. After step 3 jump to the desired quest.
Turn on power and step on the symbols on the elevators. (nav card table must be built by at least 1 player)
· One spot it could be located is on the elevator that leads to Bowie Knife or the one right next to it and is accessible from the power room.
· Another spot it could be is on the elevator near Remington 870 MCS.
· Another spot it could be is either on top of the Quick Revive elevator or the other elevator next to Quick Revive, both elevators are adjacent to where the player builds the Trample Steam.
· Another spot it could be is the elevator next to the SVU-AS,
· The last spot it could be is on the elevator in the corner on the roof near a Mystery Box spawn location is (referred by people as "No Man's Land" or "Dead Man's Corner").
All 4 players must step on them simultaneously. Care should be taken that the elevators do not kill the player if standing on them while they are near the top floor. Once done, Richtofen and Maxis will speak to the player.
Match the gold symbols on the floor.
· There is one by the M14.
· One above the AK-74u.
· One on the roof to the left of the Semtex Grenades.
· The last is past the SVU-AS by the cafeteria.
They are the same symbols as the elevator symbols. They must be lit up by stepping on them in sequential order. This order changes per game, so it is mostly guessing and trying different combinations. Once all four are lit up, Richtofen and Maxis will speak to the player.
Acquire any sniper rifle and look into the dragons' mouths. There should be a small ball in each mouth (resembling the moon egg). If the player shoots both balls out of both dragons' mouths, they should teleport under the lions' paws in the starting room, adjacent to the Olympia. Do not take them to avoid glitches.
The player who has acquired the Sliquifier needs to continuously shoot the balls until they begin to spin. This will take 20 direct shots on each ball, so it would be wise to save the Sliquifier's ammo prior to this occasion. Once both balls are spinning, Richtofen should tell the player to make a "blood sacrifice". Maxis is now locked out of the systems, allowing Richtofen to proceed.
Scattered throughout the map are golden zombie symbols with circles outlining them around the map,
· one near the spawn by the M14
· two near the Claymores on the roof with the NAV table
· One near the Semtex on the same roof.
Each player will need to place a Trample Steam on the symbols so that they face the radio tower on the roof. Once all four have been placed down, allow zombies to be killed by the Trample Steams. At this point, the players MUST NOT pick up their Trample Steams or else Richtofen will give out a quote saying you failed this step and cannot progress anymore further, making restarting the game a necessity to do it again.
It is advised that you don't clear the couch debris blocking the escalator near the M14 so that zombies can only come from one way and the other way blocked by the Trample Steam. Richtofen will indicate that the step is completed by asking Samuel to use the Galvaknuckles. However, any player can use them. Each zombie symbol will give a Richtofen quote if trample steams are placed correctly, you need to make sure that you have heard all 4 or you won't be able to move on
There are Mahjong tiles of different colors and sizes located throughout the map. These tiles indicate the order in which you should melee the radio tower with the Galvaknuckles. Here are eight tiles, but there are 11 locations for the tiles to spawn. Each time you do this step, it changes order from game to game so it WILL NOT be the same each game.
Four of the tiles have Chinese Mahjong symbols, which indicate a compass ordinal. The other four tiles are color coded with the directional tiles have indicate the order in which that particular post should be hit. Each compass point and dot tile is colored, and same colored are correlated. The colors are red, blue, green, and black.
For example, if the player finds a green 'north' and green three dots, the north side of the tower is hit third. This order changes every match. This step can also be done by trial and error, but it makes it extremely longer time to complete this step. If you make a mistake, the radio tower will stop glowing and won't light back up until the start of the next round. The compass points of the tower do not change.
The potential location of these tiles is as follows.
· One corner of the tower will have the direction that corresponds with that corner.
· In the Spawn room on the same desk the compressor for the tramplesteam sometimes spawns on.
· At the bottom of the escalator near the M14.
· On the broken stairs that lead to the SVU-AS from the spawn.
· On the couch with 4 circular cushions near the initial Mystery Box Spawn.
· On the last level of the elevator shaft that you can stand on above the AN-94.
· The Buddha room (after the AN-94 room) on the top level at the back of the room to the right.
· On a shelf, near the Sliquifier next to a soda can and a basket.
· On a table with a sewing machine in the power room.
· On a lawn chair near the Mystery Box spawn on the roof.
· In the kitchen near the MP5.
Once the order is determined, the player must melee the bars with the Galvaknuckles in that order.
North Faces the Tramplesteam room and West faces the sun. Figuring out South and East are just opposites. The radio tower will have a surge of electricity hit it and lighting up blue, with all of the dragon's flares sparking, and the achievement/trophy will be unlocked.
(South, North, West, East).
Kill zombies in the Buddha room, Maxis will say to the players, "Reincarnation will reveal its way forward" when the player has killed a satisfactory number of zombies. This will take 1-2 rounds.
Anyone acquire the Ballistic Knife from the Mystery Box and pack a punch them into the Krauss Refribulator. Then the players must go back into the Buddha room and shoot the Krauss Refribulator anywhere in the room. The first shot should trigger the next maxis quote. If not the game is glitches and you must restart.
Remove both balls from under the lion's paws. When the balls are picked up, there will be no indication that you have them or not; for example, if a player has it and they get down and they don't know if they still have it or not, the ball will spawn back at where it was before.
(old glitch) Players playing as Stuhlinger and Russman CANNOT pick up the balls or else a glitch will occur.
NOTE: The stuhlinger and russman glitch needs more testing!
The players must now build the Trample Steam and place one on each of the four Lion symbols on the ground. The players must then drop the balls acquired earlier on top of the Trample Steam; the balls will bounce to each of the Trample Steams, get flung onto the Radio Tower, and an orange surge will go through the radio tower. As said at Step 5, the glitch will occur if both either Russman or Stuhlinger picks up the ball, and the game will not prompt the player to place the ball on the Trample Steams, even if you place the ball back at the lion's paw and allowing players playing as Misty and Marlton pick it up. After this is done, a player must now obtain the Galvaknuckles and go around the map looking for the Mahjong tiles, similarly to Richtofen's side. See Richtofen's side for help.
Once a player has obtained the Galvaknuckles, they must then go to the radio tower, and after a short time, the four posts of the tower will be lit up. The player must then punch the tower in the order stated by the Mahjong tiles. Once the stands of the tower have been hit in the correct order, the radio tower will have a surge of electricity hit it, lighting up orange, with all of the dragon's flares sparking, and the achievement will be unlocked.

Kelly Vivanco swears she never been all that into comic books. Kinda hard to believe, considering her contribution to Meanwhile at the Hall of Justice…, a weekend art show at Subtext in Little Italy: She chose to paint an interpretation of Rogue, one of the more obscure characters from The X-Men—and CityBeat chose it for its July 22 cover.
"I read some comics when I was growing up," Vivanco says, "but I was more into cartoons. But my brother was into them, but I wasn't too into the superhero thing."
Even as a teenager, she says, she had friends who were into comics and that she'd even hit up conventions in and around Orange County, where she lived. But even then, Vivanco says, she's never really been that obsessive.
Now, living the past nine years in the same town that holds one of the biggest comic conventions in the world and having friends in the industry, she even has her own comic called Patches. But it's her paintings that garner attention, having already booked shows at trendy L.A. galleries like Gallery 1988 and Thinkspace, not to mention a shared show with Jason Limon at Subtext opening July 31. With influences that range from the pre-Raphaelites to contemporaries like Jeff Soto, her paintings are vividly colorful displays of innocence, often incorporating either young girls, birds or both. Naturally, she kept with that theme for "Rogue Concern," which has the character holding a dead bird. On first view, one might think that she found the bird and that her eyes, filled with sadness, are expressing some deep concerns about mortality and nature.
Nope, she killed that bird.
"I didn't want to make her like the movie or like the comic-book Rogue," Vivanco says.
"She's kind of a compelling character because whatever she touches, she steals power from it. It's one of those 'Oops, I didn't mean to' kind of moments. Her character always stuck with me. Comic characters all have their flaws, but she has this kind of vulnerability that I like."
Meanwhile at the Hall of Justice… will open with a reception from 6 to 10 p.m. Friday, July 24, and continue through Sunday, July 26, at Subtext, 2479 Kettner Blvd. in Little Italy. www.subtextstore.com, www.kellyvivanco.com.
