Sengoku PC Preview
There will still be a sharp learning curve for anyone new to the game, but the hints and help screens get straight to the point, and explain matters clearly enough to keep you heading in the right direction.
In addition to the useful hints, the general information that the game provides about various statistics and statuses are also invaluable and always on hand. However, the reasons why you can't perform certain actions are not always immediately obvious. The more you stick with the game, the more it starts to make sense, but you definitely need an acclimatisation period while you adapt to the style of play that gets results.
Click to enlarge
The strategy involved in Sengoku will probably feel somewhat alien for most players. With honour being a resource to be managed carefully, we started to develop interesting ways of resolving problems. Initially following the path of the butcher and trying to carve a bloody road to conquest, we soon abandoned this method and grew to enjoy the more subtle methods of play, and the steadier pace that Sengoku encourages.
As an example of this change in strategic method, after we realised the extent of the damage caused to our honourable reputation by declaring war on our neighbour, we decided to carry on and see the conflict through with a view to committing suicide. This would effectively enable our heir to take over with a substantial part of the family honour restored. Although ultimately old age snatched this choice away from us, it's not a tactical option that we've ever found ourselves able to make in the past.
The process of building up your relationships, lands and reputation to enable you to elegantly forge ahead also feels highly satisfying. However, Sengoku's one major drawback is that it's easy to find yourself sitting around waiting for things to happen, which can tempt you into making some heavy handed game-destroying mistakes. Starting with a very small power base and trying to work your way up peacefully can lead to a lot of thumb twiddling as you speed through the months, and we also found it frustrating that you could only ever send out a handful of court members to perform special tasks. A few more multitasking options in the key diplomatic areas would have been very welcome considering the amount of time it took for events to trigger.
Click to enlarge
However, at the other end of the scale, when it came to wielding the military might of a larger clan, we found marshalling our troops quickly became overwhelming. Deciding where to direct your various armies is an exercise in forward planning, with troop movements always taking considerably longer than you think, meaning you can quickly find yourself out of position to deal with the threat of invasion or provincial revolt. This is really a job for a dedicated armchair general.
Becoming Shogun is definitely not a simple or quick task, and in an age where the 6-10 hour game is king, it's refreshing to be reminded of titles such as Sengoku, which are clearly designed to take months to make any progress. If you liked the potential lurking in the political and factional side of the Mount & Blade series, or you've enjoyed Paradox's other historical strategy titles, Sengoku is definitely shaping up to be worth a look. This could turn into a very interesting and innovative title for anyone wanting to unleash their subtle scheming side, or for strategy gamers that just want to play something a bit different.
Sengoku will be published by Paradox Interactive on the PC, and will be released on 13 September, 2011.

Bargnani is not the problem..
it's turk, he is making Andrea look bad because he plays a similiar game during the second half of the season last year we were not talking about trading Bargs, because he was balling.. he had more room to ball, more touches to get in rhythm.. but now Hedo trows him off his game |

replace one player and you'll get nothing
if this is the best the team can do, nothing you replace will make a significant difference say you're trading Bargnani for a veteran center who is a top defender you know what you'll get? Last year Raptors before JO was traded. Remind me again why we've trade JO? Because we sucked ... and he couldn't "mesh" with Bosh in the offense. Of course, Bargnani can't mesh with Bosh on defense, so what you gonna do. You'll be damned either way. |

they got 4 more wins with billups - you forget that denver was a good team *48-50 wins) before they got billups
and they benefited from other good teams falling behind (phoenix, sas, dallas, utah had bad years), so they got an easier path in the playoffs. Add 4 or 10 more wins to our team and you still get a .500 team with not much chance of getting better without the wild card that is bargnani |

its really funny how everyone turns on Bargs as the scapegoat, but tends to look past our "superstar" Bosh. now i love bosh, he's our star and he's tearing up the league currently - 25/11 - or whatever, but has anyone really thought that the reason for our poor interior Defense and us getting 'owned' in the paint - is his fault?
he is probably one of the skinniest/weakest/softest PF's in the league. sure he grabs 11 rebs a game, but that doesnt stop the fact that we get smashed in the middle on a nightly basis. look at the other premiere PF's in the NBA - which of those guys has a bigtime Center beside them? kg - no, duncan - no, boozer - no, amar'e - no... they all grab boards like CB, but more importantly, they dont allow themselves or their teams to get raped in the paint like Bosh does. he has no intimidation factor and he is pretty much a weakling when it counts. dont lay all the blame of our internal D problems on Bargs (yes, he deserves some), but Bosh is the major culprit in my eyes. |

Denver never got out of the first round of the playoffs. They reached the western conference finals by destroying New Orleans in 5 games & Dallas in 5 games. Billups turned that franchise around and are expected to reach the Western Conference Finals again. Something that can't be said before Billups arrived. Moremilk, do you know your bball?

Define big time center. Perkins, Okur, and Fry. Those are pretty good centers Perkins most notably. But yeah, with the Raptors size 3 through 5, its amazing that we have no shot blocking ability. |

Whether consciously or not, I think people correlate Bargnani's lack of facial expression on the court to being worse on defense than Chris Bosh who is very good at yelling to the sky. They're both equally as bad, and people hating on Bargnani for his hedges on screens need to check themselves and watch Bosh "hedge" a screen. Blaming everything on Bargnani is too convenient, unfair, and completely wrong. Fact is it's hard not to mess up on rotations more than a few times when your perimeter guys are being blown by on nearly every possession. The blame starts on the perimeter for me. I can't imagine how frustrating it must get to have to help over and leave your man every time down on defense. Honestly, if Bosh REALLY wanted things to change on defense he'd have reamed Andrea out on the court in front of all of his teammates and not tried to pussy foot around it by coming out about it in the media. |

Bargnani is a better defender when it comes to locking his man down in the post, and it's not even close. |

The idea of Jesus dying on the cross is central to the Christian belief. It represents the conviction that Jesus died for the sins of mankind. The crucifixion of Jesus is a vital doctrine in Christianity; however Muslims reject it completely. Before describing what Muslims believe about Jesus' crucifixion, it may be useful to understand the Islamic reaction to the notion of original sin.
When Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree in paradise, they were not tempted by a serpent. It was Satan who deceived and cajoled them, whereupon they exercised their free will and made an error in judgement. Eve does not bear the burden of this mistake alone. Together, Adam and Eve realised their disobedience, felt remorse and begged for God's forgiveness. God, in his infinite mercy and wisdom, forgave them. Islam has no concept of original sin; each person bears responsibility for his own deeds.
"And no bearer of burdens shall bear another's burden". (Quran 35:18)
There is no need for God, a son of God, or even a Prophet of God to sacrifice himself for mankind's sins in order to buy forgiveness. Islam refuses this view entirely. The foundation of Islam rests on knowing with certainty that nothing should we worshipped but God alone. Forgiveness emanates from the One True God; so, when a person seeks forgiveness, he must turn to God submissively with true remorse and beg forgiveness, promising not to repeat the sin. Then and only then will sins be forgiven.
In the light of Islam's understanding of original sin and forgiveness, we can see that Islam teaches that Jesus did not come to atone for the sins of mankind; rather, his purpose was to reaffirm the message of the Prophets before him.
".. None has the right to be worshipped but God, the One and the Only True God…" (Quran 3:62)
Muslims do not believe in the crucifixion of Jesus, nor do they believe that he died.
Jesus' message was rejected by most of the Israelites as well as the Roman authorities. Those who believed formed a small band of followers around him, known as the disciples. The Israelites plotted and conspired against Jesus and formulated a plan to have him assassinated. He was to be executed in public, in a particularly gruesome manner, well known in the Roman Empire: crucifixion.
Crucifixion was considered a shameful way to die, and "citizens" of the Roman Empire were exempt from this punishment. It was designed to not only prolong the agony of death, but to mutilate the body. The Israelites planned this humiliating death for their Messiah – Jesus, the messenger of God. God in his infinite mercy prevented this abominable event by putting the resemblance of Jesus on somebody else and elevating Jesus alive, body and soul, to heaven. The Quran is silent about the exact details of just who this person was, but we know and believe with certainty that it was not Prophet Jesus.
Muslims believe that the Quran and the authentic narrations of Prophet Muhammad contain all the knowledge mankind needs in order to worship and live according to God's commandments. Therefore, if small details are not explained, it is because God in His infinite wisdom has judged these details to be of no benefit to us. The Quran explains, in God's own words, the conspiracy against Jesus and His plan to outwit the Israelites and raise Jesus to heaven.
"And they plotted to kill Jesus and God planned too. And God is the Best of the planners." (Quran 3:54)
"And because of their boasting, "We killed Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of God." But they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of Jesus was put over another man, and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge; they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely, they killed him not. But God raised him (Jesus) up unto Himself. And God is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise." (Quran 4:157-158)
The Israelites and the Roman authorities were not able to harm Jesus. God says clearly that He took Jesus up to Himself and cleared him of the false statements made in Jesus' name.
"O Jesus! I will take you and raise you to Myself and clear you of the forged statement that Jesus is God's son." (Quran 3:55)
In the previous verse, when God said He "will take" Jesus, he uses the word mutawaffeeka. Without a clear understanding of the richness of the Arabic language, and knowledge of the levels of meaning in many words, it may be possible to misunderstand God's meaning. In the Arabic language today the word mutawaffeeka is sometimes used to denote death, or even sleep. In this verse of Quran, however, the original meaning is used and the comprehensiveness of the word denotes that God raised Jesus to himself, completely. Thus, he was alive at his ascension, body and soul, without any injury or defect.
Muslims believe Jesus is not dead, and that he will return to this world in the last days before the Day of Judgement. Prophet Mohammad said to his companions:
"How will you be when the son of Mary, Jesus descends amongst you and he will judge people by the Law of the Quran and not by the law of Gospel." (Saheeh Al-Bukhari)
God reminds us in the Quran that the Day of Judgement is a Day that we cannot avoid and cautions us that the descent of Jesus is a sign of its nearness.
"And he, Jesus, son of Mary shall be a known sign for the Hour. Therefore have no doubt concerning it. And follow Me! This is the Straight Path." (Quran 43:61)
Therefore, the Islamic belief about Jesus' crucifixion and death is clear. There was a plot to crucify Jesus but it did not succeed; Jesus did not die, but ascended to heaven. In the last days leading up to the Day of Judgement, Jesus will return to this world and continue his message.

Sir James Munby, president of the Family Division, has branded the denial of Legal Aid to a family fighting to prevent their child being put up for adoption as "both unprincipled and unconscionable."
As reported in the Law Society Gazette, Swindon Borough Council have recommended that a family's two-year-old son be put up for adoption – a recommendation opposed by the parents. Unfortunately, a means assessment conducted in May found that the father's monthly income was £34.64 over the limit for them to be eligible to receive Legal Aid, and the parents have been forced to represent themselves against the local authority.
Munby violently disagreed with the state's handling of the situation, and said that he was grappling with the "profoundly disturbing fact" that the parents do not qualify for legal aid but lack the money to pay for their own legal representation.
He went on to opine that the state had "simply washed its hands of the problem"; and threatened to instruct the court itself or some other element of the public finances fund the parents' case. The decision as to whether representation will be funded by the local authority, the legal aid fund or HM Courts and Tribunals Service awaits his decision on 13 November.
Responding to Munby's judgement, Bar Council chairman Nicholas Lavender QC said parents fighting to keep their children should never be required to represent themselves in court: "Defending yourself against a local authority means going head-to-head with the government, and without a highly trained advocate on your side, the odds are stacked against you."

Why not enter some details and get an accurate price?
- Award-winning park in a green wildlife haven
- Heated outdoor pool and play area
- Bikes and firepits available for hire
There's more than a hint of Enid Blyton's Famous Five about Alpine Grove Touring Park: pitches among secret groves of rhododendron, dappled with shade from the oak trees towering above, plus den building in the woods, scavenger trails, biking and hiking adventures around the local countryside, picnics and sausage-fuelled singalongs by the fire. Bet they sell lashings of ginger beer in the on-site shop...
Campers can choose between sun or shade, seclusion among the rhododendrons or a more open grassy area for their pitch. In addition to all the good old-fashioned fun outlined above, there's a heated outdoor swimming pool, tennis, a play area, plus of course the usual amenities for ablution, laundry, refuse and recycling. Bikes and firepits are available for hire, and well-behaved dogs are welcome.
A level cycle path runs along the disused railway line between Chard and Ilminster, or for a more challenging ride, the 80-mile loop of the South Somerset Cycle Route goes right past the site. There are also plenty of walks for all abilities, and golf, fishing and horse riding nearby.
Open from 27/04/2017 to 24/09/2017

Check availability at Alpine Grove Touring Park…
Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you're a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on one pitch.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.

p/s Thanks for playing!
It was great
The only thing I would change is maby after the bosses is a new weapon maby?...A gun a axe (throwing axes possibly) stuff like that
The Wolf
I liked it, though the range of your weapon against some of the enemies weapons isn't balanced
It was a great play!
Its storyline reminded me of those old turn based rpgs, like Wild Arms and Vagrant Story. It was engaging and fun, and not too hard either. Lovely graphics, and well done on giving reasons for everything - why the character has magical attacks for example.
Great stuff, I look forward to part 2! :D
awesome story...
add more special moves,weapons,armor,more enemys,a block button then it shall be god until then.... im giving it a ten. =] AWESOME make it into an mmorpg and that would be cool.
warning:spoilers, don't read if you want to learn by playing!
I personally liked the game. I thought it was fun and challenging, and you had to actually use some skill rather than hack'n'slash your way through.
which is why I guess everyone is complaining. it's supposed to be difficult, how boring would it be if you could just sit there and block all the time?
The archers are perfectly fair, it's all in the reflexes, just phase back and jump and you'll dodge it 90% of the time, provided you notice the arrow as soon as it enters the screen. the sword was an easy battle, just time consuming. you simply shadow step through the attack when you have to run past the actual sword, and wait for him to use the vortex before you attack the orb, otherwise you'll get hit because you can't move while attacking. The assasin was pretty difficult, but shouldn't a final boss be good??? first of all, when you hit him he always appears behind you, and the ninja star can be shadow stepped through. Quit complaining, the games good it just takes some strategy. pay attention to how the units attack and you'll probably live.

A man has admitted running over and leaving a delivery driver for dead as he attempted to steal the courier's van.
Victim David Fletcher,58, from Upminster, east London, was making deliveries in Wood Avenue, Purfleet, Essex, on July 9 when two men jumped into his vehicle and tried to drive off.
He chased the van but was pushed in the face by the driver and fell to the ground before he was run over.
Mr Fletcher suffered near fatal injuries and Essex Police released shocking images of the wounds as they appealed for information.
Leonard Willsher, 41, from The Fremnells, Basildon, Essex, admitted causing grievous bodily harm, causing serious injury by dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking and driving while disqualified at Basildon Crown Court, Essex Police said. He will be sentenced in January.
Det Chief Insp Lucy Robinson said: "Leonard Willsher was an opportunist thief who stole Mr Fletcher's vehicle whilst he made a delivery.
"Mr Fletcher chased after him and bravely held onto the lorry's wing mirror.
"In trying to escape and with no regard for his victim, Leonard Willsher callously pushed Mr Fletcher away and then ran him over.
"Despite causing near fatal injuries, Willsher did nothing to help his victim, but was observed wiping his fingerprints from the lorry before running off, leaving his victim for dead."
She added that thanks expert medical care and his own determination, Mr Fletcher is now recovering.

I received some bad news about the First Class award ticket I booked to Hawaii this week with Alaska Airlines on Delta SkyMiles. My winning moment came when I booked a First Class award ticket to Hawaii on SkyMiles for only 75,000 SkyMiles round trip. This was booked at the Delta SkyMiles low level and is a rare find. So I was excited to get the itinerary booked.
My work was not yet complete. I still needed to add segments to get us from the east coast to the west coast at Delta's low award level. I was not going to stop believin' there was low award availability.
I had a breakthrough that I thought could work and quickly called up Delta to attempt to price the ticket.
But the bad news quickly hit me over the head like a brick. I couldn't price out a ticket from the east coast to San Jose at the low level. The routing rules that were confirmed by multiple agents were causing my ticket to "break" and adding additional cost (extra miles) to the pricing.
There were a number of issues causing the ticket to break by using Delta SkyMiles to attempt to book a partner award with Alaska to Hawaii. Here are a few reasons I've discovered will cause the flight to break.
- A layover of more than 4 hours is considered a stop over
- Stop overs are not allowed on routes that Delta does not have a published fare
- Most Alaska flights from the west coast to Hawaii leave very early in the morning
- The Alaska Flight 863 leaves SJC at 8:50 am, so this ruled out a connecting flight without needing a layover greater than 4 hours
- Since I was attempting to fly the route that Delta doesn't have a direct flight published fare (SJC>LIH) the fare was breaking and increasing the cost from 75,000 per ticket to well over 140,000 per ticket
Bottom Line
Delta's award booking rules with Alaska airlines are prohibitive for connecting passengers coming from the east coast. I was really hoping to fly Delta to Hawaii, but their availability just isn't great at the low level.

What is it worth??
I found a 1978 F150 4x4, std cab, long bed, 351m...it is a one owner truck it has about 19,000 original miles and has been sitting since 1982 in a garage. There is some surface rust(inside the wheel wells and some other very minor spots) but no actual holes in the body and the paint is very clean and clear coat still intact and the tailgate looks like its never seen anything but some dust. It is brown and has orange pin striping on it, stock steel wheels in a cream color with the stock radial tires that came from the factory.
I know its hard to say without pictures and i will try to get some but from that what would you pay for it??? |

Probably pay no more than say $5k less is better, closer to $5K if the motor is free spinning with a good battery. Depending on what you think it needs mechanically start deducting money.
Sounds like it will be a mechaincal check, fluids, wiring check, and tune up type fixer up After getting it running and driving, and cleaned up you could get $8-10K |

I know its extremely hard to price, motor does not turn by hand but I have free'd up sitting motors before. It still has the stickers on the valve covers with the white background and red lettering that look new i cant imagine i will have to much trouble with it.
March 24th, 2014, 01:33 PM | #8 |
Well in that case it should be free. Don't get caught up by the good looks. Something that has set that long will more than likely need brakes, seals, bushings, fuel tank and lines, etc. Things just don't work the same when you park them for 30 years.

A few years ago someone on this site was trying to sell a similar truck he claimed was original. I believe he started at over $3k,It was a 300-6, it had a sketchy title, holes rusted thru the frame and torched holes in the bed. Plan on taking everything apart, replacing pretty much every seal, repacking bearings and a whole lot more before you drive it.

There is just not enough comparables to establish a trending "market price" for something like that. I will say it is worth more than I would want to pay for it. It depends on what the owner THINKS it is worth, and what you think it's worth. It's value falls in between that. The fact that it has sat in a garage since 1982 will impact it negatively compared with one that was old man owned, garaged every time it wasn't driven, but WAS driven at least occasionally. |
March 26th, 2014, 06:56 PM | #19 |
the ocean called
Yup. Depending on what type of barn or facility the vehicle was stored in and what the vehicle is, a barn find can be a really great thing. Half the time, especially in MI, it's just best to have driven the vehicle like it was designed for instead of storing it in your wet barn.

Close Quarters ConfrontationsThe majority of law enforcement officers are killed in confrontations that take place at under seven feet. The only answer given for how to win in these situations is "just shoot 'em." If it's that easy, why do officers keep getting killed? What we need is a fighting system that allows the defender to instantly and reflexively employ either deadly or non-deadly force while minimizing the assailant's ability to harm them. InSights Training Center Instructors have taken their practical individual experience and together developed a system that works. The problem with most systems is that there are too many decisions to make in too small a time period. It would be like carrying five guns of different types, shooting them all differently, and trying to choose which one to use under the stress of combat. The saying goes, "Beware of the man with one gun." Well, we say BEWARE OF THE INDIVIDUAL WITH ONE COMBAT SYSTEM! - the person who knows without hesitation exactly what he is going to do in any armed or unarmed conflict. In this course you will become such a person. You will learn a full unarmed combat system and an integrated firearms combat system. The course can be physically demanding depending on how hard you try, but everyone should come regardless of age or physical condition. You will only be asked to do what you can. The course will make extensive use of striking bags and protective padded suits (FIST gear) and you will be striking "opponents" with everything you have in combat simulations. Subjects Covered:
Student TestimonialsYour training is a good blend of what should work when it is for real. None of us can foresee what gunfight our students or ourselves may be involved in. However, your techniques are a solid building block for emerging victorious in an actual shooting. ~ Mike W., Birmingham PD |

these turned out to be pretty good! decent price, 20 min in the oven, and the flavour is quite good! we bought the vegetable ones-- and just put plum sauce on the top!
I love these as a quick and easy appetizer. You easily put them into the oven and forget about them. They always come out delicious and they are a fairly decent price.
These are really good and I buy them a lot. they have them in vegetable,beef, and pork and they make for a nice meal when added to a Chinese dish or just alone as a snack. Either way they are really tasty.

Penalties On Shining Lasers On Pilots About To Get Tougher In The UK
Laser pointers are cool stuff to use, on or off the airsoft field. Apart from using it as a targeting tool for more accurate shooting against the OPFOR, lasers can also be used as for presentations in front of clients and students. But they can also be dangerous even if they look harmless as they can pose a danger to pilots, drivers, and motorists. Anything that happens to them in the course of their duties if they get disoriented or temporarily blinded by a laser shined on them can cause catastrophic accidents that can lead to serious injuries and death.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 Will Have A Single Player Campaign
Releasing a Star Wars Battlefront was indeed a success for Electronic Arts (EA) as it recovered from criticisms of buggy FPS Battlefield series. With such a success, EA, wanted to push the game more for their customers to stick to their FPS games as releasing just a multiplayer only game was not enough, and with DICE, EA Motive, and Criterion, work has began for the Star Wars Battlefront 2.

Heckler & Koch Reveal Their Latest Assault Rifle: The HK433
The start of February 2017 did come with some good news that got at the attention of the real steel and airsoft communities. Heckler & Koch has unveiled their new assault rifle, the HK433 that comes with the best features of two of its successful predecessors, the HK416 and the G36 assault rifles. A hybrid, you will say, but if it truly does feature the best of these rifles, then military organisations should pay close attention to the HK433 if they are looking for a new assault rifle to equip their soldiers.
GoPro Announces The Karma Drone Is Going Back To Stores
If I were somebody choosing the name for the first drone offering of GoPro, Karma is what I would not have chosen it to be. When it was first released last year to much fanfare, it had to be recalled as it tended to lose power in flight. Such a problem made its biggest competitor in DJI, to surge ahead with its feature packed and affordable Mavic Pro.

Multicam, or for some airsoft, Guccicam, has expanded the from its original Multicam Pattern to a variety of patterns under the "Multicam Family of Camouflage Patterns" that have been designed to fit certain operating environments (e.g. Urban, Tropical, Snow, and Arid). As of now the Multicam pattern is the most famous camo pattern that has been adopted by several countries.
UKAPU: Policing And Crime Bill Finally Receives Royal Assent
It's finally over! The campaign for exemptions for airsoft in the Policing and Crime Bill has been maintained at 1.3 joules which is approximately 370fps using 0.20g BBs for airsoft guns that have full automatic modes. The Policing and Crime Bill has been given the Royal Assent, meaning that is now law.
Emerson Gear Is Preparing A PMAG-Style Power Bank. Neat
Thanks to a reader in Hong Kong, we get to see information on a product that Emerson Gear is about to release this year --- a PMAG-Style Power Bank. It looks actually cool as you can bring a power bank with you to the airsoft field that will not look out of place as you it will look like just another STANAG magazine in your M4 pouch.

Francis Ford Coppola Wants To Make An "Apocalypse Now" Video Game
"I love the smell of napalm in the morning" is the best speech in a movie in a Blockbuster UK survey amongst film buffs in 2004. Probably is, since it's one of the most memorable lines in a movie ever. If you do not know what move the line came from, you'll probably listen to it again if Francis Ford Coppola gets his way.

Richard Simmons Housekeeper Spotted Outside His Home
The text message was sent way back on July 5, 2013. Perhaps because its sender, Alexander Bradley, realized it held unwanted power, like the capability of impacting his immunity deal in an Aaron Hernandez double murder trial, let alone rocking the entire case altogether. In a plea deal, Bradley, however, gave authorities full access to his phone, including deleted and otherwise privileged communication with his lawyer.
The son of U.S. President Donald Trump has been slammed as a 'disgrace' after he appeared to criticise London mayor Sadiq Khan on Twitter, only hours after a terror attack at the Houses of Parliament left four people dead - including a police officer.
Dramatic video of Wednesday's terrorist incident in London shows the suspected attacker barreling across Westminster Bridge in a car. Surveillance video of the bridge broadcast by the BBC this evening shows the car weaving in and out of traffic as it crosses the bridge. At one point, something or someone can be seen falling into the River Thames below. A seriously injured woman was later pulled from the river and received medical treatment, an official with the Port of London Authority told ABC News. Four people were killed, including a police officer, and at least 40 other people were injured in the attack, near the Houses of Parliament. A man believed to be the attacker was also killed, shot
As a vehicle carrying tourists made its way past a lion enclosure in the Serengeti Safari section of the Estrella Biopark in Montemorelos, Mexico, a lioness went into a crouching position as if stalking the visitors. Then it decided to attack, which was a horrible idea by Elsa the lioness, as footage captured by tourist Jan Adrian Diaz proves: The lioness obviously overestimated its leaping ability as it fell into the large moat that surrounds the enclosure and keeps tourists safe for instances such as these. Elsa wasn't even close to reaching the other side of the trench. The male lion, meanwhile, remained lying in its position, no doubt unimpressed by the lioness' antics. A park spokesperson

Meanwhile today I got a notice from the Nebraska Department of Revenue. They announced they had, unfortunately, miscalculated an underpayment of taxes they claim I made. Three weeks ago they had sent a downright hostile letter, threatening liens, and claiming I owed them about $300. I couldn't see how they came up with that number, but decided I wasn't going to hire a tax lawyer for $300. So I sent them a cheque. They cashed the check, but never credited to my account. So now they claim I owe them another $80, even though it is they who owe me $220. I have no idea how long it's going to take to get this all sorted out.

Collaborators/Experts Reviews
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Honorary Collaborator
A long awaited reunion between Page and Plant occurred in 1994, with the realization of their shared interest in Egyptian / North African music culminating in the MTV "Unplugged" DVD and "No Quarter" album, released on 14th October 1994, acoustic music including North African musicians and instruments, and mandolins and a hurdy gurdy along with an orchestra of North African musicians they continued to do a tour.
This project helped the pair reconcile their Zeppelin days using less bombastic interpretations of some of their specially selected classic songs - "Nobody's Fault But Mine", "Thank You", "No Quarter", "Friends", "Since I've Been Loving You", "The Battle of Evermore", That's The Way", "Gallows Pole", "Four Sticks", "The Rain Song" and a truly amazing version of "Kashmir", enhanced beyond measure by the use of innumerable African musicians and the string section of the London Metropolitan Orchestra, these songs interspersed with some of the African musicians own songs that fit in perfectly.
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Prog Folk
Of course the original album is presented in a fairly different track order than the concert DVD and it is quite a bit shorter - three tracks are missing: Rain Song, What Is and Truth Explodes - but then again most tracks are in fairly different version than on the DVD. So I'll mainly discuss the three "Moroccan" jam tracks (all vastly expandable? Brian Jones did better 28 years sooner) and the Wonderful One, which seems like the only real new composition for the project.
So if one had to choose between the present album and the DVD, it doesn't make the shadow of a doubt that the full concert wins hands down, but it shouldn't deter you from lending an appropriate ear to the original release, the one that made the significant impact over a year before the DVD release.
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Crossover & JR/F/Canterbury Teams
This CD is a collection of songs from MTV's "Unledded" broadcast (also released on DVD) which reunited Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, with different musicians in London, Wales and Morocco. The majority of the songs are Led Zeppelin tunes, as you would expect. Three songs are new, the best being City Don't Cry, a very nive piece with African rhythms.
Of the Zep songs, a few are very similar to the original recordings, but the best are the ones that have been rearranged. No Quarter is great as mostly a guitar/vocal duet. Four Sticks played acoustically is great. And Kashmir, with Middle Eastern orchestration is just astounding.
It's also good to hear that Plant has pretty much kept his voice, unlike some of the other screamers from his time (yes, I'm looking at you, Rod Stewart and Roger Daltrey).
Lennon's senseless murder rendered our pipe dream moot but we weren't about to abandon the basic concept. We merely erased the Beatles and penciled in Led Zeppelin atop our wish list and carried on. In the 80s, as we cringed over what the malicious, despicable MTV virus was doing to progressive rockers, turning them into desperate dinosaurs and insignificant has-beens, we couldn't help but pray that Page and Plant would re-inflate their metal blimp and cleanse our sacred rock & roll temple of the greedy, spandex-clad merchants like an angry Messiah. Alas, it didn't happen and quality hard blues/rock, along with prog, became the mud-caked doormat of the 80s scene. Credit them for having the wisdom not to tackle that Herculean task because no matter what they would've concocted (with or without the help of Mr. Jones) it wouldn't have been an adequate antidote for the debilitating "it's better to look good than to sound good" disease that, ironically, had so cruelly disfigured the face of modern music. Most likely Zep's glorious legacy would've been irreversibly stained.
Eventually the clamor for a resurrection fizzled out so when Robert Plant was approached to do an "unplugged" gig in the early 90s and he turned to Jimmy Page for assistance expectations were much more realistic. Their casual soundstage collaboration went well and led to them participating in some limited touring and studio work. The ultimate result was the 1994 release, "No Quarter: Jimmy Page & Robert Plant Unledded." The stark black and white photo of the two stoic stars adorning the CD cover dispelled at a glance any notion that they were trying to exhume Zepmania. What they were presenting was an honorable yet virile tribute to their achievements while offering their loyal fans three unpretentious new songs to chew on. No "greatest hits" package this, they put together a lineup of tunes that reflected their personal preferences rather than classic-rock radio's and the listener is the lucky beneficiary.
They start out with a drone and a downbeat for a terrific rendition of "Nobody's Fault But Mine" wherein Jimmy's chiming 12-string acoustic guitar and Porl Thompson's banjo turn this former barnburner of a tune into a stripped down example of what might be considered Moroccan Delta blues. Robert's voice is in excellent form (not only here but throughout the album) and the tide-like groove they lay down is irresistible. With this unexpected treat they not only declare their independence from the past but also shoo away those who were itching to raise their lighters for the millionth run-through of "Stairway to Heaven." The only number they perform note-for-note is "Thank You," probably because they couldn't improve on perfection. Page's solo, spat out in his inimitable herky-jerky style, stands in juxtaposition to the song's smooth sentimentality. They then take liberal liberties with "No Quarter," one of their proggier compositions, sending the rest of the musicians backstage and playing it as an unaccompanied guitar/vocal duet. But sparse it ain't as their tactful use of various effects fills up the empty spaces, creating a cavernous envelope around them.
Time has greatly improved my assessment of Zep's third LP and I can now better appreciate the subtle progginess lurking in tunes like "Friends." After an eerie opening by their backing symphony (tagged the Egyptian Ensemble) the song's dreamy, string-driven melody line proceeds to mesmerize completely and I admire the way Plant takes chances with his voice. A new one, "Yallah," follows and it begins with what sounds like Robert announcing in Arabic the equivalent of "Attention, shoppers, don't miss the pork loin for only $3.99 a pound in the meat department!" Consisting mainly of a repeating guitar riff layered over marketplace babble and Plant's melodic rapping, it's nothing to write home about but Jimmy does coax some nasty but intriguing growls from his guitar midway through. "City Don't Cry" is a slight improvement. It's remarkably Peter Gabriel-ish with its deadened- string percussive pulse and African group chants that make Robert's strange wailings seem fitting and appropriate.
"Since I've Been Loving You" is one of my all-time favorite Zep tracks and this live recording is as fine as the original ever was. Page shines brightly as he plays with powerful emotion, the orchestral strings are sublime and drummer Michael Lee does a fabulous job of conjuring up John Bonham's indomitable spirit from beginning to end. In this era of his career Plant had yet to lose a step and he belts out every agonized scream like he was 19 again. This burns like diesel fuel and it's nothing less than sheer greatness. After another clever, exotic intro they slide into one of their brave forays through the land of prog folk, "The Battle of Evermore." Robert and Najma Akhtar intertwine their voices splendidly and they soar like eagles. "Wonderful One" is the most involved of the trio of new compositions (it has a bridge section) but the ringing steel drums roiling beneath Jimmy's thick chording remind me of noisy sanitation workers collecting garbage at 6:00 in the morning. Annoying.
On "That's the Way" (LZIII is well-represented) the 12-string acoustic and banjo carry the weight of the verses, then the full band joins in on the choruses. The excitement they convey beats the pants off the studio take, making this simple tune much more engaging. The fevered "Gallows Pole" is flat-out amazing. From its humble start with guitar and vocal it gradually builds in tempo and intensity until it floods the concert hall with a joyous throb that can't be ignored. But they ain't done yet. A legion of drums make "Four Sticks" HUGE and they drive this steamroller like they're racing at Indy. (Play it LOUD for maximum impact.) The symphonic score is gargantuan and the energy generated is phenomenal as middle-aged Robert stands up to the vocal challenge the tune presents. Anybody else would say goodnight at this point, pull an Elvis and leave the building but they actually take it up a notch. After a fog-machine introduction Plant warbles a few wild calls to bow towards Mecca and then they unleash a full-blown "Kashmir" extravaganza that scorches the room. (Kudos to the engineers for capturing this incredible performance with impeccable fidelity. The whole CD sounds astonishing.) P&P toss in some sly kinks to freshen up the arrangement, too. The simmering violin break in the middle leads to dynamic accents not heard on the overplayed studio version, multiple drums add a wider dimension and the creative ending is awesome. Who could ask for more?
If you are or have ever been a fan of Led Zeppelin this is a must-have. If you only know them as the guys who wrote the rock & roll ditty heard on Cadillac commercials when you were growing up then this CD will demonstrate why they so richly deserve to be labeled progressive pioneers. Like all great proggers, they played and composed what they wanted without regard for what their label thought they should be doing and their audience found them. What they accomplished here, a decade and a half down the line, is one of the most impressive of feats: A reunion that didn't just work, but was truly extraordinary and worthy of high praise. 4.4 stars.

Negotiate a Better Lease Deal Before Market Peaks
Arm yourself with the appropriate information to make rental rate deals before the window of opportunity closes.
March 2011
Despite the improving economy, there's still too much space begging for tenants. That means your landlord may need you more than you need your landlord. And that can translate into lower rents.
The nationwide vacancy rate for industrial space has climbed to 10.4 percent in recent months, according to Robert Bach, chief economist at Grubb & Ellis. That is the highest level since the second quarter of 2004, and significantly more than the sector's 8 percent equilibrium rate (the rate at which rents increase by no more than inflation).
For office space, the vacancy rate has held at 17.8 percent, the highest since the first quarter of 2005 and a hefty margin over that sector's 12 percent equilibrium rate. As for retail space, vacancies have been running at 11 percent, the highest level since the mid-1990s and considerably more than the sector's 6-7 percent equilibrium rate.
Rent Reductions
The time to strike is now. Most real estate observers say that the vacancy rate is roughly as high as it's going to get. In some markets, the trend has leveled off as business owners seek expansions.
"Overall vacancy rates for all commercial property types have peaked and are slowly trending downward," according to Grubb & Ellis' 2011 Forecast.
"The deals are still there for tenants, particularly as you move down the quality spectrum," Bach says. "But for the better properties - well located, strong trade areas, not a lot of competition - landlords can afford to be a little more choosy than they were six or 12 months ago."
Others agree. "While 2011 should continue to be a renter's market, we seem to be at a turning point," says Jeffrey Allen, director of operations at Trendant Consulting. "We expect to see a slow and steady decrease in vacancy rates through the end of the year."
So what steps can you take to capitalize on the favorable market? For starters, dust off your lease and take a fresh look at the numbers, even if your renewal date is still a ways off.
Your first thought might be to ask for a reduction in your monthly rental rate. While that's not out of the question, another tactic is more likely to bear fruit with the same bottom line results: free rent for a set number of months.
"Landlords don't like to reduce rent," says Andy Fried, director of the Small Business Development Center at Georgia's Coles College of Business. "Many landlords buy real estate for investment purposes, so they want to keep what they call the capitalization rate up. The higher the rent roll, the higher the value of the building." To maintain their investment, landlords will often opt to grant free rental months rather than cut the official rental rate.
Do Your Homework
Knowing your market is key to a successful lease renegotiation. Do your research and line up your ammunition. You will want two questions answered: What rents are others paying? And what space is available for you to move to?
Here's where the right help can make all the difference. "The number one factor for successful negotiating is having a great real estate agent," Allen says. "Go with the best commercial agent in your area. That person will know what's negotiable and what's not, and will already have a lot of connections with business owners and will know their issues. It all stems from that."
How do you find the best agent? "It becomes pretty obvious once you start looking around and talking with other business people," Allen says. "Call brokers and ask for the name of their top commercial real estate agents ranked by sales volume. Look at advertised listings and scout around for the `for lease' signs in your area. Whoever has the most signs is often the best agent."
