β-Selective C-arylation of silyl protected 1,6-anhydroglucose with arylalanes: The synthesis of SGLT2 inhibitors
Chiang P.-C.,ScinoPharm Taiwan
Journal of Organic Chemistry | Year: 2015
The stereoselective arylation of hydroxy protected 1,6-anhydro-β-d-glucose with arylalanes to provide β-C-arylglucosides is reported. Modification of triarylalanes, Ar3Al, with strong Brønsted acids (HX) or AlCl3 produced more reactive arylating agents, Ar2AlX, while the incorporation of alkyl dummy ligands into the arylating agents was also viable. Me3Al and i-Bu2AlH were found useful in the in situ blocking of the C3-hydroxyl group of 2,4-di-O-TBDPS protected 1,6-anhydroglucose. The utility of the method was demonstrated by the synthesis of the SGLT2 inhibitor, canagliflozin. © 2015 American Chemical Society. Source

Chiral rhodium catalysts comprising 2,5-diaryl- substituted bicyclo[2.2.1]diene ligands L1-L10 were utilized in the enantioselective 1,4-addition reaction of arylboronic acids to N-substituted maleimides. In the presence of 2.5mol % of RhI/L2, enantioenriched conjugate addition adducts were isolated in 72-99 % yields with 86-98 %ee. This protocol offers a convenient method to access a variety of 3-arylsuccinimides in a highly enantioselective manner. Maleimides with readily cleavable N-protecting groups were tolerated enabling the synthesis of useful synthetic intermediates. Pyrrolidine 4, a biologically active compound, and pyrrolidine 5, an ent-precursor to an HSD-1 inhibitor, were synthesized to demonstrate the utility of this method. The road to rhodium! Enantioselective conjugate addition of a range of arylboronic acids to variously N-substituted maleimides, catalyzed by RhI complexes prepared in situ using chiral bicyclo[2.2.1]diene ligands, afforded the corresponding 3-arylsuccinimides with up to 98 %ee at 50 C (see scheme). © 2015 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Enantiomerically enriched tosyl-protected diarylmethylamines were rapidly prepared by the asymmetric addition of arylboronic acids to N-tosylaldimines under mild conditions in the presence of a catalyst prepared in situ from Rh(I) and a chiral diene ligand. This methodology offers access to diarylmethylamines in good yields with excellent chiral purity at room temperature using MeOH as a solvent and NEt3 as a base. Its synthetic utility was demonstrated by the preparation of (S)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (14), an antagonist of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. © 2014 American Chemical Society.

The asymmetric conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to substituted and unsubstituted β-pyrazol-1-yl (E)-tert-butyl acrylates 4 catalyzed by 5 mol % of the Rh(I)/diene 2a catalyst provided the corresponding addition products in 44-98% yield and 91->99.5% ee. The method was applied to the formal synthesis of (3S)-3-aryl-3-(pyrazol-1-yl)propanoic acid 1b with agonistic activity toward the human GPR40 G-protein coupled receptor. © 2015 American Chemical Society.

An efficient enantioselective addition of an array of arylboronic acids to various β-nitrostyrenes catalyzed by a novel and reactive rhodium-diene catalyst (S/C up to 1000) was developed, providing β,β- diarylnitroethanes in good to high yields (62-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (85-97% ee). The method was extended to 2-heteroarylnitroolefins and 2-alkylnitroolefins similarly providing the desired products with high enantioselectivities and yields. The usefulness of this method was demonstrated in the formal synthesis of the enantiomer of the dopamine receptor agonist and antagonist, SKF 38393. © 2013 American Chemical Society. Source

Hey moron, How about the deficit when Bush stole the election and took over, along with a record surplus and about zero wars when Bush took over, how about all the men and women sacrificed by his incompetence? Tell us how his love for big corporation and deregulation Wall Street helped ruin the economy, then tell us that none of that played a role in the mess Obama inherited, tell us just how much the Republican controlled Congress has fought tooth and nail against any and everything that would help the recovery. Why any rational person would want the likes of Bush-and murdering snarley Cheney back in power is beyond stupid. Why is it that every recession and depression has followed an eight year reign of Republican lack of leadership? Dumbazz.

Let's review some history....
There is a request for surge troops.
Obama takes office and begins his dither period, during which he orders all combat against Al Qaeda and the Taliban in the mountains to cease, and all US forces to retreat to the population centers.
Then Obama states: "The Taliban will be part of the future government of Afghanistan."
Then Obama gives the Taliban (and Al Qaeda because they are one in the same) "safe passage" throughout Afghanistan.
When Obama took office, the Taliban and Al Qaeda were confined to the caves in the mountainous tribal region between Afghanistan and Pakistan.(Pull out your Patriot's Guide to the War Map and look where you put your pins to mark locations of combat and compare the locations of your pins before and after Obama took office, idiot.)
Today the Taliban and Al Qaeda are bombing every village throughout Afghanistan.
... and the Afghans are sometimes convinced we're on the side of the Taliban and Al Qaeda.
Obama is surrendering the United States to the Arab muslim jihad.
... which brings us to another question you idiots ran away from:
Why do we need to talk to the Taliban? If Obama wants to get out of Afghanistan, just pack up and leave. We can be completely out of Afghanistan in less than a month.
... unless the real intent is to sabotage the Karzai government and turn the country back over to the Taliban and Al Qaeda.

I agree, although I would like to see Zimmerman get a worse sentence. How many of us would not at some point confront someone that was obviously following you? Even if a fight starts does that give the other one the right to kill you, especially since he was the initiater? I personally can't see how any juror can find Zimmerman innocent since he was the stalker and his actions alone caused the death of a young man that was minding his own business. Pretty obvious to impartial people.

This restaurant has a nice beachy feel and the service was good except we had to wait quite some time for the bill. My son, who used to live in Key West, said the conch fritters were great. The Mahi tacos I had were also very good. The prices were reasonable and the portions were large.
We have passed Goombay's several times and decided to give it a try. We were there with another couple. Music was a little loud outside and did ask waitress to turn it down. I do not believe she did. She really wasn't into working that night it felt like.

We had an anniversary to celebrate, during a weekend of vegan tastings all over Berlin, and thus we tried Lucky...
My partner and I visited the Lucky Leek on a Friday night and had a truly wonderful meal! We opted for the 5 course menu and every dish was beautiful! The service was also completely fabulous with all serving staff very knowledgeable on each dish! Great value for the excellent food and service!
A must visit place for vegetarians/vegans. Had to make a reservation. Opted for a 3 course meal with recommended cider to go with the meal. I am not sure whether to call it as fusion as some dishes contained elements from different cuisines. The food is amazing with equally good service. Price is not bad either... Definitely recommend it...

|Let's Eliminate The "Dictator Dividend"
|Gen. McCaffrey Reports on Iraq
by Christopher Chantrill
May 03, 2006 at 9:26 pm
FOR SOME TIME the French and the Germans have felt that they needed to get together to smooth over the differences they have had over the years. What better way than to write a high-school textbook together?
And what better way to cement Franco-German friendship than to fill the book with anti-American bile?
The textbook, published today, was ordered in 2003 by President Chirac of France and Gerhard Schröder, then Chancellor in Germany, according to Adam Sage in the London Times. Starting in 1945, the history soon gets to work on
the Cold War, where the US and the USSR are presented as broadly equivalent in moral terms.
Both were engaged in an arms race described as the balance of terror and both sought to impose themselves by an omnipresent propaganda that involved gross exaggerations and simplifications.
Actually the Germans, bless their hearts, didnt really like all this Yank-bashing. They tried to tone things down a bit.
German historians had insisted upon softening the message with sentences such as: Some people, notably in Germany, consider the US to be a power which defends democracy in a world where the UN is not always able or willing to do it.
But not those those blood-curdling Gaulish warriors! They wouldnt write a mamby-pamby sentence like that.
Still theres a bright side to all the America-bashing. The next volume in the book deals with the 18th century up to 1945, during which the French spent a lot of time marching their armies through GermanyFrench-occupied Germany, as they call it in The Brothers Grimm. And they can end Volume II with the lovely spectacle of the French settling down contentedly to Nazi occupation after the shameful defeat of quarante.

What distinguishes true Conservatism from the rest, and from the Blair project, is the belief in more personal freedom and more market freedom, along with less state intervention... The true Third Way is the Holy Grail of Tory politics today - compassion and community without compulsion.
Minette Marrin, The Daily Telegraph
When we received Christ, Phil added, all of a sudden we now had a rule book to go by, and when we had problems the preacher was right there to give us the answers.
James M. Ault, Jr., Spirit and Flesh
I mean three systems in one: a predominantly market economy; a polity respectful of the rights of the individual to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; and a system of cultural institutions moved by ideals of liberty and justice for all.
In short, three dynamic and converging systems functioning as one: a democratic polity, an economy based on markets and incentives, and a moral-cultural system which is plural and, in the largest sense, liberal.
Michael Novak, The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism
There was nothing new about the Frankish drive to the east... [let] us recall that the continuance of their rule depended upon regular, successful, predatory warfare.
Richard Fletcher, The Barbarian Conversion
We have met with families in which for weeks together, not an article of sustenance but potatoes had been used; yet for every child the hard-earned sum was provided to send them to school.

MOUTH OF WILSON — Rugby Creek Animal Rescue is seeking sponsors for three new rescue horses on their farm.
A few weeks ago, the rescue accepted three malnourished horses from Grayson County Animal Control. Rugby Creek cared for the horses while the case progressed through the court system; and the rescue was subsequently awarded the horses by a judge last month. The rescue is owned by sisters Kelly and Ashley Smart.

RICHMOND — The House of Delegates has approved a bill that would impose a mandatory $250 fine for driving too slowly in the left lane on highways.
HB 2201 was introduced by Del. Israel O'Quinn (R-Bristol) and co-sponsored by Democrats Del. Kaye Kory of Falls Church and Sen. Scott Surovell of Fairfax to show bipartisan support for the measure.
Some Virginia farmers and the state's largest agricultural organization fear state budget cuts will kill a program that's helped farmers stem and prevent livestock losses to coyotes and black vultures.
Virginia Farm Bureau is supporting budget amendments introduced by Sen. Frank M. Ruff Jr. (R-Clarksville), with the support of Sen. Bill Carrico (R-Galax) and Del. Charles Poindexter (R-Franklin County). Both amendments would restore funding to prevent loss of the program.
Online dating websites and social media have made it easier than ever to meet new people and, with luck, find that special someone.
"Unfortunately, it has also made it simpler for scammers to do their sordid work," said the Better Business Bureau in a recent alert. "Con artists create compelling backstories and full-fledged identities, and then trick victims into falling for someone who does not even exist."

District Court
These sentences were recorded in August in the Grayson County General District Court Office, Independence. Sentences may be appealed:
The dreaded flu virus has declared open season in the Twin Counties, and some school systems in the area are feeling the effects with more absences than normal.
In the past week, Carroll County Public Schools saw a large number of student absences, climbing into the hundreds for a few schools inside the division.
"We noticed an increase in absences on [Feb. 9-10], but not nearly as bad as the last two days," Schools Superintendent Strader Blankenship told The Gazette on Tuesday.
Galax schools will face a budget challenge this year.
At the Jan. 10 Galax City School Board meeting, Superintendent Bill Sturgill noted that there is "close to a $300,000 hurdle" to get over already in the budget, due to the rising cost of Virginia Retirement System contributions and Gov. Terry McAuliffe's financial supplement (with a local funding match) being taken away.
I'd like to comment about the women's march on Washington. In my opinion, a march is alright if it is a peaceful march. But, these women are marching on the first day Donald Trump is in office. You have heard of a two-edged sword. It's darned if you do, darned if you don't. I don't think he could do it, but if Donald Trump could walk on water, they would have something to say about it.

INDEPENDENCE ― Grayson County Public Schools recently received a grant from United Way Southwest Virginia for $5,000, to use in inclusive projects for students with special needs.
The grant money will pay for recreational equipment that can be enjoyed by students with and without special needs at Fairview Elementary School; where they will also soon have an inclusive play area to enjoy together.
Staff Report
Galax students and parents dropping them off at school may not be aware that, just a few blocks from the campuses, Galax Safe Routes to School has yard signs posted in the Parkwood Street neighborhood urging drivers to "Slow Down! Keep our kids safe," and the message behind it goes deep.

An Act of Love is a gentle midnight surprise, music as pulsing revelation birthed in the moment between waking and tumbling into dreams. It comes on ominously before dissolving into inescapable rhythm, leaving a breadcrumb trail through memory toward some warm place half-recalled.
R23X is about to make a much larger name for himself in the nebulous sound world curated by the Dream Catalogue label. VELTAHL is a striking moment of clarity sustained over 20 tracks of kaleidoscopic digital fantasia. It's an explosion of crystalline tones and warped samples, adventure music for kids who grew up on pixelated visions of the future.
patten – Sonne
patten is about to release an album I didn't realize I was excited for until I listened to Sonne and caught that hot feeling, a dumbstruck "this is why I love this artist" blush. I'm happy, I'm hyped, and now I'm impatient.
Ghost Drive [mixtape]
It's the summer of 2016 and I've felt more energized than I have in years. In addition to writing more frequently than ever, I've rediscovered my passion for mixing and recontextualizing music.
I make mixtapes that I'd want to listen to, sharing music the way I hear it. This one is a night drive for future ghosts.
James Blake – The Colour In Anything
The Colour In Anything sounds like that exact moment when you witness a loved one realizing their full potential. So don't call it a comeback; this is the sound of eventual self-discovery.
NV – Binasu
I've said it before, but Orange Milk is one of the most exciting music labels out there right now. They've published some of my favorite albums of the past few years, from Giant Claw, Nico Niquo, and more, so I'm always on the lookout for what's next. This week, my eyes fell upon the cover of NV's Binasu and I knew I needed to listen right away.
What I'm Into This Week (5/1 – 5/7)
This week was shot out of a cannon. I was out of town, spending the weekend in Chicago, visiting the aquarium and accidentally joining a political protest, but I returned to great news.
Radiohead was suddenly back and doing interesting things. I had new vinyl from Can and Andy Stott. Beyoncé was still riding high on the crest of a mighty art-pop wave, and her album was still lodged in my car stereo. Then, after the worst storm of the year, the sun came out to play.
Let's get into it.

The High-Tech Way to Grocery Shop
By NICK RAVO
Published: April 14, 1993
EACH week, Marilynn Glazer of Skokie, Ill., shops for groceries by sitting down at her personal computer and typing the log-on "peapod." She then scans the screen for sales. She sorts and chooses items by unit prices. She checks to see when she last bought milk and other staples. And within 90 minutes, her order arrives at her door. The delivery person even accepts coupons and recycles her plastic bags.
"It's wonderful," said Ms. Glazer, a retired telecommunications supervisor, who is disabled. "It makes it very easy for me."
For Ms. Glazer and 2,500 other brave new shoppers who subscribe to Peapod, a computer grocery service in the Chicago area and in San Francisco, ordering groceries on a PC has become almost as common as loading up a mini-van at the supermarket.
Slightly more common is grocery shopping by Scan Fone, a souped-up telephone provided by US Order of Herndon, Va., and used by 3,000 customers in Memphis, Washington, Detroit and Dubuque, Iowa.
Gary Arlen, president of Arlen Communications, a consulting and research concern in Bethesda, Md., says this type of technology will become more common. "It's a way that some people will shop, but it's more of a ripple than a tsunami," he said. "But the ripples keep coming."
Electronic grocery shopping remains more a dream than a reality in most of the nation. Almost all of the handful of companies that started such an operation in the 1980's have stopped. Prodigy Services Company of White Plains, for example, ended its three-year operation in 1990 in New York and seven other cities, saying only a few hundred people had subscribed.
Peapod, which started service in 1990, is believed to be the only company that offers grocery shopping by personal computer, although a few small companies, like Menutronics in Kansas City, Kan., say they are considering entering the field.
After a customer punches in an order, Peapod's personal shoppers go to a Safeway store in San Francisco or a Jewel Food Store in Chicago, buy the groceries and deliver them. About 15,000 items are available. "We check for freshness and everything," said Andrew Parkinson, the founder and president of Peapod.
In the Chicago area, where there are about 2,000 customers, Peapod charges $4.95 plus 5 percent of the grocery bill; payments can be made electronically from a checking account. The software -- which runs on any I.B.M.-compatible computer with at least 640K of RAM or any Apple Macintosh with at least one megabyte of RAM -- costs $69.95 and includes a three-month membership. Peapod also charges an annual fee of $49.95. In San Francisco Peapod charges $9.95 for a delivery, and the annual fee of $49.95 includes software.
"A customer could eliminate the delivery fee by using coupons," said Derrick Milligan, a company spokesman.
Peapod plans to expand into a third city (it hasn't decided which) by the end of the year. "We expect to penetrate 5 percent of the households in the communities we are in within five years," Mr. Parkinson said.
He added that PC-based shopping is faster, more convenient and easier to organize than calling in an order by telephone. "You can order $100 worth of groceries within 10 or 15 minutes," he said.
Competing with Peapod for tomorrow's high-tech grocery shoppers is Scan Fone, which provides customers with a telephone equipped with a 16-character LED display panel, a magnetic-stripe credit-card reader and a light pen that scans bar codes in a 6,500-item catalogue.
Customers, who can also pay their bills with the Scan Fone as well as buy merchandise from companies with bar-coded catalogues, order their groceries by calling Shoppers Express of Bethesda, Md., a six-year-old company that provides home-delivery services for grocery stores and drugstores in 35 states. The service costs from $5.95 to $9.95 a delivery, depending on the city.
"There has been little demand from our customer base for PC's," said Kevin Sheehan, a vice president for marketing with Shoppers Express, which accepts orders from telephones and fax machines as well as Scan Fones. "It is a non-PC-literate group that uses home delivery."
Many analysts believe the embryonic telephone-based technologies have a better chance of penetrating the nation's households than the problem-plagued PC-based systems, which have been around for more than a decade.
Kevin McGilly, editor of Information and Interactive Services Report, a newsletter in Washington, noted that only about 25 percent of all households have personal computers and that only 25 percent of those have modems, the devices that connect computers via telephone lines, and that only 25 percent of those -- less than 2 percent of all households -- subscribe to an on-line service. "More people have telephones than PC's," he said.

Top Tips for Post PregnancyNutrition following the birth of a child is possibly the most important nutrition of your life. Not only will your body be recovering and in need of all the vital nutrition that it can get, but the sustenance that you provide your new born baby with during those first few weeks is of paramount importance - it pays to get it right! Here are some top tips from us on how to make sure you are doing all that you can at this important time.
- Stay Hydrated! For those breastfeeding, it is vital to produce a good quantity of breast milk. Hydration is key - a dehydrated body will produce less milk. Make sure you take on lots of water-based drinks such as water with lemon or cucumber, or with mint and parsley. Green juices are also an excellent source of hydration and nutrition.
- To ensure that you are producing nourishing milk, make sure you are eating enough complex carbohydrates. There is a reason that new mothers crave cakes, biscuits and starch after birth. Listen to these cravings, but try to keep them healthy. Quinoa salads, soups and hot dishes are a great source of complex carbohydrates while being filling and comforting. Buckwheat pancakes, muffins and noodles are other staples that will help you through. In addition, do eat any other alkaline grains such as brown and red Camargue rice, spelt, pearl barley and gluten free oats – HH granola bars are a fantastic if you are craving something sweeter.
- Foods rich in zinc are essential for ensuring that postnatal depression is avoided. Zinc is found in all whole grains, nuts and seeds and especially brown rice and red Camargue rice.
- Magnesium is essential for preventing constipation – not something you would want to deal with following birth. All seasonal green leafy vegetables such as watercress, spinach, parsley, kale and chard contain magnesium.
- You will need plenty of iron rich food to prevent anaemia. Eat plenty of fresh apricots or our raw hemp granola bars as well as more green leafy vegetables.
In addition, dishes such as our Red Rice and Beetroot Risotto are quick and easy dishes, filled with vitamins, minerals and fibre to give you some much needed energy.
From 6 weeks after birth, you can start to think about reducing your intake of certain items.
1. Cut back marginally on the quantity of your food you are eating but not on the hydrating juices and drinks.
2. Lower your intake of nuts but NOT of seeds. Have no more than one palm full of mixed nuts per day.
3. Derive your essential fats from avocados (a rich source of vitamin
4. and soaked chia seeds. Chia seeds are the highest source of vegetarian Omega 3 while they help to reduce food cravings by balancing blood sugar levels – they are also a great source of energy balancing fibre.

Suki Waterhouse
Blog del direttore
From tomboy teen to versatile model. Waterhouse chose to be a model when she was a teenager. And her original style makes her one of the it-girls of the moment, also thanks to her British, extravagant spirit
Michael Hauptman captured, for the October 2014 issue of Miss Vogue, the ironic and playful side of Suki Waterhouse. Leaning from a window, she pulls faces wearing grunge-style clothes that suit her particularly well. Mario Testino, in a shot for a British Vogue editorial in April 2015, portrayed her genuine beauty in a pastel pink setting alongside friends and fellow models Cara Delevingne and Georgia May Jagger. Suki Alice Waterhouse was born in London in 1992, she is a model, actress and singer with a great passion and penchant for photography. In her childhood and part of her adolescence she took up karate, wore oversized shirts and pants: a tomboy that could not bear to wear female clothes and had a difficult relationship with her classmates. She was scouted at a party in Oxford Circus, and at just 14 she became aware she could start a totally unexpected path.
At 16 she started modeling and in that very moment she left the tomboy behind and embraced today's Suki, the one with a versatile soul. Her first important job assignment was with Marks & Spencer underwear at 19 and the following year she made her debut as an actress appearing in the remake of cult movie Pusher, followed by important collaborations with brands Alice + Oliva, Coast, Forever 21 and also became a fashion designer for Superga fronting its FW 2014-15 ad campaign. She dreamt of working with Burberry attending the brand's shows and that dream was later fulfilled when she walked their runway, fronted the FW 2014-15 campaign and became the face of the Brit Rhythm for Women fragrance and of the Burberry Kisses Campaign. Her passion for photography is nurtured by the desire to document her travels and adventures with her friends and family. The encounter with Ellis Scott gave her a boost to carry on along a path full of gratifications. The first came in 2013. In April she took part in "I'll be your mirror", an exhibition curated by Stuart Semple and held at London's Eb & Flow Gallery where she displayed the pictures she took of friends Cara Delevingne and Georgia May Jagger.
She loves writing poems and letters and listening to good music. She stepped out with rocker Miles Kane, Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard and dated for a long time actor Bradley Cooper. She earned new cinema roles, playing haughty Bethany in Love, Rosie (2014), tough Marlene in box office hit The Divergent Series: Insurgent (2015) and Kitty Bennet in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies(2016). She is part of the Next London model teams, so she is invited to events, graces covers and has turned, unknowingly, into a trend setter and it-girl. She was a Pinkette for Vogue Italia and Pinko, a star blogger for Vogue British where she showed her daily clothes choices for one month, she was the face of the SS 2013 collection by Caterina Gatta and an Ambassador for Chopard in Cannes (2014). Suki Waterhouse was very elegant in her flouncy and draped long dress by Burberry at the 2014 Met Gala, looked mysterious, intriguing and confident in a personal shot wearing a black wig and sunglasses, or in a Ellen Von Unwerth shot, donning a floral dress for Vogue Russia. With her nineties vibe, she loves to change and play with her looks.

Life on the Green, Green Seas
The joy of playing independent games is that you never know what you'll find. Maybe it will be a stinker, as was Charles Ward's last effort, Blood & Fortune. Then again, maybe it will be his current experiment, Haze Islands. Hopefully the latter, because Haze Islands is rad.
Two Minds about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shadows of the Past
Dan is the only human being of his generation to never watch a single episode, read a single comic, or do a single anything else Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles related. Not even one thing. Let that sink in. Not one. Which is why we've brought in our resident TMNT expert — yes, we have one of those, our staff is huge — to go head to head with Dan. Give a warm welcome to Brock Poulsen as he debates the merits of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shadows of the Past.
Fly Me to the Moon
I'm not a math guy. This isn't to say I can't do math, just that I probably won't, not voluntarily. If I'm waiting in a long line I might calculate my sales tax in advance, but that's just because I'd rather not continue standing in a long line. Other than that, I'll cheerfully cop to being terrible at knowing the odds.
Leaving Earth bills itself as "a tabletop game of the conquest of space," but that's a little bit like calling Columbus washing up in the Caribbean "the conquest of the New World." This isn't a game of conquest. It's a game about the first tentative steps of discovery. Probes, surveys, launching a man into orbit, bringing him home. Most of all, though, it's a game about the grace and sophistication of solving complicated math problems.
Daimyo Dash
One of the great difficulties in creating any work of game-as-history is the sheer potential bulk of the thing, where the subtle complexities of real-world conflicts must be modeled as rules, endowed with appropriate exceptions, and tested for some semblance of balance. Take the Battle of Sekigahara, for instance. Set in the autumn of 1600, this was the final step in a years-long campaign by Tokugawa Ieyasu to bring the warring daimyos of Japan under his thumb. During the course of this seven-week campaign, clans and generals swapped sides, cobbled highways and back-country fortresses alike played important strategic roles, firearms and cavalry disrupted the usual order of battle, and some dude held a fortress against all odds through the sheer weight of his respectability.
The beauty of Sekigahara: The Unification of Japan — and I don't use that word lightly — is that it's perhaps one of the least demanding games I've ever played from GMT, somehow managing to capture the drumming tension of its subject matter without ever once sacrificing depth for simplicity or simplicity for depth.
Aeon's Beginning
If I were forced to list three things that I have a history of disliking about board games, I would arbitrarily choose the following: Firstly, "pure" deck-building games, because the era of the hybrid is upon us. Secondly, cooperative games. And thirdly, fixed market pools in deck-building games, as opposed to the "river"-style markets of games like Ascension. Give me some variety! Some uncertainty! Some drama!
Aeon's End, designed by Kevin Riley and published by Action Phase and Indie Boards & Cards, is a cooperative deck-building game with a fixed market pool. If I were a keeping-track man, that would make three strikes, and if I understand baseball correctly that means it's time to pick up another chili dog and head to the car before the second inning starts. Fortunately, I've never counted past two in my life, because Aeon's End has quickly become my latest obsession.
Ants in the Pants
Sometimes, usually while showering, I think about how the eusociality of the insect order Hymenoptera — ants, wasps, bees, and so forth — is very possibly the pinnacle of feminism.
But enough about that. Let's talk about March of the Ants. Who doesn't love ants?
Red Delights of the Arena
I can't help but crack a smile whenever I hear somebody complain about how luck hindered one of their plans, as though plans were the most sacred thing in the world. Well, yeah. That's what luck does.
Take Gorechosen as one of the brashest examples of the delightfully fickle nature of chance. Just a few days ago, while commanding Redarg Bloodfane — a horned warrior who sports a codpiece that bears an uncanny resemblance to one of the Polokus masks from Rayman 2: The Great Escape — I had carefully positioned myself behind Heldrax Goretouched by weaving around pits of searing magma and opposing fighters. With a sinister grin, I got lucky on my initiative draw, then continued getting lucky by having the right card in my hand. I tossed it onto the table the way people do in movies about poker games. BACKSTAB, it read. I took up my hand of dice, everyone's breath trapped in their lungs, and sent them spinning across the table. Misses, all.
Luck. It treats plans with about as much respect as you showed that last Kleenex.
We Will Never Reach Mars
It's been a good couple of years for Mars. Between a pair of high-profile board games, Matt Damon getting rescued at long last, and people finally deciding that maybe life on a barren wasteland dirtball even farther from the sun would be preferable to remaining on Earth, everything's coming up rosy for Mars. And yes, that was a Red Planet pun.
But instead of focusing on what things will be like when we get there, how about a board game that's all about getting there in the first place? No, no, not the flight, silly. Not being an astronaut. Not space-walks and solar sails and solving unforeseen problems and telling Houston to stuff it, you're going to save your favorite crewman no matter what they say. But rather, being the administrative cog tasked with oiling the production of space modules, getting vendors on the phone, and hiring other cogs to also oil the wheels of progress. How's that sound?
Tiny Aegean
For a few years now, Omen: A Reign of War from Small Box Games has been one of my favorite card games. With all the subtlety of a Spartan dory to the gut, its primary strength rested in its outright meanness, allowing a skilled player to leverage his cards into terrifying combos that won battles and robbed an opponent of options.
Thus, the announcement of Omen: Edge of the Aegean, no mere expansion but a follow-up, a sort of parallel development of the Omen system, got me nearly as misty-eyed as Odysseus. And for anyone who doesn't quite understand that reference, the hero of the Iliad and the Odyssey is a huge crybaby. Like, huge. The guy can't stop himself. When he hears a bard sing a jingle about his tricksy victory over Troy, he weeps. When Calypso, hottest nymph in the isles, decides to invite him over for a feisty sex-party, it's waterworks time.
I, on the other hand, was merely on the verge of weeping, for I am a manly man compared to whiny Odysseus.
The Cardboard Noom
First of all, the thing about id Software's New Doom — which shall henceforth and forever be portmanteau'd as Noom, because it makes me giggle — is that it was actually, against all odds, an incredible shooter. It was frantic and controlled in equal measures. It boasted a tempo that shrieked between exploration and violence. It was good. Which was a tremendous surprise, considering how uninterested id seemed to be in making good games anymore.
Perhaps even more improbably, Fantasy Flight's new board game rendering of Noom is also good, and largely for the same reasons.
