Subject: Re: Plaster Mummification Question!
Thank you so very much for all the information you shared here, this brought up some important points I hadn't thought about before, spe4cially about leaving a metal piece in to help with the saw in removing the cast!! My partner was thinking of doing other things and not deal with the saw because of the risks in using is, so this eases us to consider that option again. Very helpful, so thank you very much! We plan to do this scene this weekend, I will post afterwards to tell everyone how it went!

Hi everyone!
My partner and I have long ago decided to do a full mummification scene with plaster. The goal for us is to render me completely immobile and have it last as long as possible, with a maximum of 2 days in the plaster. Judging from bondage we have done in the past, I cannot last too long due to discomfort, especially in the arms.
Sounds like you're in for a fun time.
Two days is a pretty long time to remain in a full body cast though.Especially if you've previously experienced discomfort during muchshorter scenes.
One option I've always thought would be fun; would be to work your waytoward the full cast, one piece (limb) at a time. If you've had aproblem with discomfort in your arms in the past, why not leave themuntil last?You can still have a nice long scene, with the advantage that you my beable to accommodate your partner in some way before you're fully casted.
Just one thought.
Do you start plastering from laying down position? What parts do you plaster first the torso or the limbs?
There's probably many schools of thought on technique. The last time Iassisted in a body casting, the castee must have "locked" his limbswhile he was standing up. Even though the cast was not complete, norwas it very tight; he began to complain of dizziness. I had him wigglehis toes and fingers, as well as trying to flex his knees a bit. But itmust have been to late for that. A few minutes later he momentarilypassed out.He recovered very quickly once he was laying down. But the uncured castwas sacrificed as we helped him down.
I can't be sure exactly what caused this reaction. But I did experiencesomething I believe was similar a very long time ago when I had spent avery long time standing at "attention".
Casting while laying down would probably present more of a technicalchallenge and you would definitely need some kind of table eitherdesigned specifically for, or otherwise well suited for the task.However if your intent is to go for a long scene, I would investigatethat further.
Whether standing or laying down, you're going to want to payparticularly close attention to all joints. What might feel just finefor the first hour or so, might not feel so good after 12. Most castingmaterials also shrink slightly while they're curing. You won't needmuch padding everywhere. But your wrists, elbows, ankles and knees willthank you later. Besides, physical discomfort tends to be distractingfrom the lovely "drifting" that comes during a casting.
What body position is most comfortable, best to be with legs and arms straight out or bent? If bent is better, how much of an angle?Sideways next to the body or farther apart? Arms out towards to front or parallel to the side of the body?
Since I have only bottomed for one full casting, my experience issomewhat limited. But I have been mummified in other materials many,many times. By far the most comfortable position I have found is layingdown, with my legs and arms slightly away from my body.
You'll have to experiment to see which position is best for you. Havingyour arms slightly bent at the elbow might also be an option. If you'regoing to go for the long one, think comfort!
Also, if you could tell me what sorts of unexpected problems you ran into when doing the plaster or taking it out, I would really appreciate so we may avoid some common things we can't quite grasp due to the lack of experience.
I'd get a good pair of medical shears. The ones I have cut througheither plaster or fiberglass casting with ease.
If you're going to go with a gag, I would suggest one that can beremoved without having to damage the rest of the cast. Sometimes if onedozes off, waking up bound like that can cause a momentary panic. Noneed to ruin the scene if all the bottom needs is a few breaths of airand a little reassurance.
When I'm gagged for the night, we use the "3 grunt" signal if somethingis awry. Since there's no point in even trying to talk around the gagswe use, 3 loud grunts in a row signal that I need something. My partnerwill usually ask me once if something is wrong, if I still needsomething a repeat the signal. This doesn't end the scene, he justremoves my gag so I can tell him what's wrong.
We have enough plaster and fiberglass to do probably 2 full body casts, but do you use only one type at a time or is it better to use both? (I ask because I know fiberglass is stronger, is it better to use that on places that need more strength? if so where?)I'm not experienced enough with those materials to really say. I do know that some people like to fully cast with first fiberglass, then with plaster because they like the way the plaster looks.I did find that with the plaster cast I was in, I was able to break outof it on my own at any time. It was more of an implied bondage than thereal thing.
In regards to getting the plaster out, are there any specific techniques to use?
You can leave some areas thiner than others to ease in cutting them later. If you're using a rotary cutter, you'll need to have enoughspace between the cast and your body to get something to cut against in there. (Usually a long, flat piece of metal)
I am thinking of posting a couple of pictures here once the scene is done to show you guys how it turned out.
Love to see them!
One other addition you may want to consider is earplugs. I've often found they add a lot of intensity to any head-wrap I do.
Good luck!!

When a child reaches the age of majority, which is 18 in most countries, they gain all the rights and privileges of an adult. As such, they no longer require a parent to make changes to their Xbox account. This includes the ability to accept the Xbox Live Terms of Use for themselves and to manage their own privacy and security settings.
Age is determined by the date of birth on the Xbox Live account. Once a person turns 18, he or she can follow the steps here to promote their account.
Steps 6 to 9 apply only to accounts that are currently billed to a credit or debit card. If your account has a pre-paid subscription, go to step 10.
When a person reaches the age of majority based on the date of birth listed on the Xbox Live account, the Xbox One will automatically promote the account classification from child to adult the next time you sign in. If you use automatic sign-in with Kinect or leave your account signed in, you'll need to sign out and sign back in manually to trigger the change.
If your household has both an Xbox One and an Xbox 360, you can use either console to complete your account promotion from child to adult. The change will be persistent across both consoles. You simply need to sign out of the second console and sign back in for the change to take effect on that console.

The marine fauna and flora and the rock formations on the island of Sal invite tourists to contact with nature. Deep in the waters there are many mysteries to be discovered.
With warm waters that balance between a turquoise tone and a dark blue in the deep waters of the arid island of Sal, have in mind that diving hand in hand with the living nature is the best option for these vacations. Spectacular lava formations, forming numerous caves in the sea bottom are the ideal habitat for a vast variety of fauna and flora. The schools of fish swim among the slopes of volcanic rock along the sand banks, where you also find are a number of other very colorful marine organisms. Shellfish, turtles, manta rays and moray eels are just some of the marine species with whom you may socialize in the waters of the island of Sal. If luck knocks on your door, divers may have close encounters with tiger or hammer sharks, dolphins and whales. The numerous ship wrecks, home to several species, also catch nature lover's attention. The incredible scenery of the Salinas of Pedra de Lume and the various caves on the island are also other mandatory spots.

Baseball, fathers and Cooperstown
The father-son bond in baseball undoubtedly goes back to the sport's beginnings and continues to thrive, whether that entails playing catch in the front yard, attending a game together, or debating the travails of a favorite team.
With Father's Day just around the corner, that special relationship was in evidence with a trio of minor leaguers who visited the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum on Wednesday afternoon.
Throughout major league history, there have been slightly more than 200 players whose father also spent time in The Show. Included in this unique group are infielder Josh Barfield, outfielder John Mayberry Jr. and pitcher Jason Grilli – all current members of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, the Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies, who visited Cooperstown.
For Josh Barfield, a big leaguer from 2006-09, his father Jesse – a 12-year major league right fielder with the Blue Jays and Yankees who led the American League with 40 home runs in 1986 – was the main reason he chose to pursue baseball as a career.
"He's the reason that I play," Josh Barfield said. "I loved watching him. He was always my hero, my favorite player growing up. He's why I play, he's the reason I am who I am as a person, so it's cool that he gets to see me play now.
"I think we (teammates Mayberry Jr. and Grilli) all have that unique situation of growing up around the game, which is pretty special. I was at the field every day, and for me it was fun. You get to go and watch the game that you love, you get to be around your buddies, so it was a lot of fun for me."
So what are Josh Barfield's plans on Sunday?
"I talk to him every day," he said, "but Father's Day is special just because it's a time to just say: 'Thank you for what you've done.'"
John Mayberry Jr. has spent parts of the last three seasons with the Phillies, following in the footsteps of his father, a first baseman who clubbed 255 homers over 15 major league seasons spent with four different clubs.
"I grew up around the game and I've always loved it, so it's a dream come true for me to be able to play," John Mayberry Jr. said. "It was great to get a firsthand glimpse of what big league life is all about."
It's connections like these that will be celebrated on Sunday at the Hall of Fame Classic in Cooperstown. Tickets for the annual Father's Day legends game are available this week at the Hall of Fame and on Sunday at Doubleday Field.
As for his relationship with his father, John Mayberry Jr. said: "My dad and I are in pretty consistent contact, but I'm guessing it's no different than any other close father-son relationship."
Bill Francis is a library associate at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

I'm guessing the oven doesn't start out at 3000F. If not, what temp does it start at (I'm guessing room temp) and how long does it take to come up to temperature after you fire it up? Will it even let you open the door at 3000F?If you are truly talking about baking at 3000F - starting on a 3000F surface, don't bother wasting your time. The dough will be burned in less than 2 seconds.
Your point is valid about putting the pie on the surface, I should use a screen.
What will you use for a pan?
April Fools...right? ;-)
Now Wes...this is a very serious scientific pizza experiment here and we are all trying to help Tom out....
Oh, well in that case, I would add some non-fat dry milk to the dough recipe to insure adequat browning.
I think you will probably need a bit higher hydration % in your proposed formula.....please don't forget the pics man(you ain't that new).Thanks! ps. bake time should prolly be about 4-5 min. I would use a screen.
I cooked on an aluminum screen for 12.53 seconds at 3012° F. Here is a pic of the beautifully charred pizza.
There's your problem - you overcooked it. If you would have looked at my formula first, you would have seen the predicted bake time at 3000F is 1.16 seconds. http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,16663.msg162386.html#msg162386
Bob,We couldn't wait so we cooked one tonight. I increased the hydration to 70% as per you suggestion.I cooked on an aluminum screen for 12.53 seconds at 3012° F. Here is a pic of the beautifully charred pizza.PS: Do you think the screen is still good?

Nuffield Health, a leading provider of cosmetic surgery in the UK, with a network of 30 private hospitals across the country.
Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat and skin from large breasts, reducing the overall size and providing a breast uplift to give the breasts a firmer, younger look.
While large breasts are considered an asset by many women, excessively large breasts can cause physical discomfort as well as attracting unwelcome comments. Women with large breasts often report back pain, neck pain, aching in the shoulders and soreness underneath the breasts and on the top of the shoulders where tight bra straps rub the skin.
Many women with very large breasts are overweight generally but doing any form of exercise as part of a weight loss programme is difficult because of the discomfort; sports bras tend not to come in extra-large sizes.
Breast reduction surgery is a major operation and is always done when you are under a general anaesthetic. You will be in theatre for between 1.5 and 3 hours and your wound will have a drain for at least the first 24 hours afterwards. Women having a breast reduction usually stay in hospital for about 2 nights.
Your breast surgeon will explain the procedure beforehand, so that you can discuss what you want from the operation and what size you would like your breasts to be. It is important that you understand what is possible and what is not – as with many other forms of cosmetic surgery, having realistic expectations is the key to being satisfied with the result.
During the surgery the breast surgeon makes incisions under the breast and in the breast fold, so that the scars are as hidden as possible. Excess fatty tissue, along with pieces of skin are cut away and removed. The cosmetic surgeon will also cut around the areola, the dark area of skin around the nipple so that it can be placed higher up the breast. The breast is then shaped into a tighter cone – this part o the surgery is the breast uplift – and then the incisions are closed using stitches that dissolve away on their own.
You will feel sore and bruised and your breasts will be swollen. However if you have had very large breasts, you will notice the difference in size immediately. Most women cope with over-the-counter painkillers (ibuprofen and paracetamol) to lessen the discomfort in the first few days and you will be encouraged to be mobile as quickly as possible. Once your drains have been removed you can go home.
Most breast reduction surgeons will advise you to wear a well fitting sports bra for 3 weeks after surgery, by which time you should be feeling well enough to return to work and light activities. It's a good idea to avoid lifting anything heavy or starting strenuous exercise for at least 6 weeks. The final result will become apparent only after about 6 months, when your scars start to fade and your final breast shape emerges after healing is complete.
A breast reduction operation carries the same risks as any surgery, including bleeding and infection. Specific risks include:
Typical range in a UK private hospital or clinic is £3,520.00 - £7,320.00.

CES 2014: 5 trends the geeks are talking about at gadget show and other news bits
LAS VEGAS – Consumer Electronics Association chief economist Shawn DuBravac said Sunday that 20,000 products will be introduced at this year's International CES, a gadget-fest restricted to industry reps and media nerds.
If you don't fit into either category, or couldn't make it to the nation's gambling mecca this year, here's a rundown of the technology trends that will grab headlines during the show and beyond. The conference officially kicks off Tuesday, though media events started Sunday with DuBravac's presentation on the state of the consumer electronics industry.

y The College News VOL. XXIV, No. 6 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1937 .copyr^ht trustees of PRICE 10 CENTS H. A. Miller Speaks On Masaryk's Work For Czechoslovakia Life, Thought and Influence Of President'Are Subjects For Tribute SPONSOR OF LECTURE IS GRADUATE CLUB Goodhart Hall, November 3.�The Tate President Masaryk was unques- tionably the greatest man to come out of the war period, said Mr. Her- bert A. Miller, lecturer in Social Economy at Bryn Mawr, speaking on Masaryk, Political Idealist, Teacher of Men, and of Nations. His life and work, mainly influenced by the teach- ings of Plato and Jesus, showed him to be "the most nearly perfect exam- ple of Plato's Philosopher King." Be- lieving that "idealism was practical," he always sought to attain ideals, knowing the limitations of man. He called democracy a political and moral educational process and con- sidered truth the best propaganda. Therefore he was able to gain univer- sal trust through unpopular causes. His father was a coachman in the Hapsburg family. His mother was a cook. Masaryk himself was appren- ticed to a blacksmith before he re- ceived a doctorate in Greek and Latin at the University of Vienna and at Leipzig. He took up revolutionary activity with reluctance, left it, went to Rome and Geneva, "and started educating the world." Mr. Miller's relationship with Ma- saryk, he said, started with his Amer- icanization work with Czechs in this country, which led him into a study of the Czechs' attempts to preserve the ideals of their state. Through this study he met Masaryk in Bo- hemia in 1912, and from then on worked with him on the sociological aspects of the Revolution. Mr. Miller spoke in detail' about his day-to-day life with Masaryk. By the time a week had passed�a week of morning discussions, lasting from breakfast .through lunch, and after- noon excursions�Mr. Miller "had a monopoly on the knowledge of Central Europe." His part was to change the soldiers' attitudes toward the im- Contlnued on Pag-e Two COLLEGE CALENDAR Thursday, November 11� Armistice Day Chapel. Good- hart. 8.45 a. m.

Salomon Gives Details On Present Day Russia Government, Education, Talent Discussed in Interview Dr. Richard Salomon, who is teach- ing a course in Russian history which replaces the first haif year of Europe Since 1870, is a very busy man. Last winter he spent four months in this country lecturing at Harvard, Prince- ton and other eastern colleges. This year he is teaching at the University of Pennsylvania as well as at Bryn Mawr; and incidentally is finding the Main Line trains harassing. A graduate of the University of Berlin, he was professor of history at Ham- burg University for 20 years. Having been away from Germany for three and a half years, Dr. Salo- mon preferred to omit discussion of Nazi politics. However, he was will- ing to discourse at length on Russia, only banning questions which in- volved the Soviet Union's future. "I could tell you how many men live on Mars, too," he said. The future of any country is tied up with po- litical, social and economic conditions. The actual turn of events is controlled by accident and coincidence. Today Russia has a Marxian dic- tatorship, and though political poli- cies are established by representa- tives of the proletariat, the reins of Continued on Face Three Undergraduates Will Give Bacon's Hamlet, The Original, Unrevised, and Virile Version Early Shakespearean Tragedy Will Make Debut With All Feminine Cast In strictest confidence, the News has accepted the following statement from two undergraduates who wish to be nameless, in regard to a production of Hamlet which they have arranged to take place next Friday evening. They say: "While itis based>on Shakespeare's great treatment of the Hamlet theme, Friday night's production is essential- ly a new interpretation of the play suggested by an unpublished treatise of the 17th century which reveals that Shakespeare rewrote Hamlet in 1602 in accordance with the London blue laws, leaving out numerous scenes which he later incorporated in his other plays. "Any student of English literature is aware of the fact that Shakespeare was -merely the nom de plume of Sir Francis Bacon, who called himself that because of an emblem on the fam- ily shield which shows a javelin ram- pant held by a mailed forearm agi- tant. Sir Francis was not only the author of the so-called Shakespearean plays, but he also wrote Do,. C (which was later translated into Spanish by a minor Iberian poet named Cervantes) and edited a collec- tion of Danish and early English legends called the Saxo Grammaticus. Among the manuscripts which Bacon discarded when compiling the Saxo Grammaticus was the original Amblet, or Hamlet legend. This virile and College Inaugurates New Goodhart Policy Series of Entertainments Will Offer Shan-Kar, Engel Lund And Vienna Choir SEASON SEATS ON SALE primitive story formed the text for his first version of Hamlet. "Bacon, or Shakespeare as we may call him when speaking of him as a dramatist, was notorious for pains- taking revision of his work, and his first versions were invariably more dramatically compelling than his later ones. Therefore, we feel that the unearthing for the first time of this early Hamlet is of inestimable value to the tradition of English drama. "It is singularly appropriate that the new Hamlet should be put on for the first time at Bryn Mawr, a wom- en's college, and that it should be done with a complete cast of women. In Bacon's day, his plays were produced by an entirely male cast, because that was a man's world and women's activi- ties were suppressed. However, by the second decade of the 20th century women have completely outstripped men, and our present civilization is definitely that of the feminine sex. We feel that a great drama can only be interpreted aptly in terms of the civilization dominant as it is per- formed, and for women to enjoy Ham- let nowadays, it is as important that women act its leading roles as it was in the days of 'Shakespeare' for men ,-This experimental Hamlet will be produced in Goodhart^uditorium, Fri- day, November 12, at 8.30. The price of admission will be 50 cents, and all profits will go to the Playfcrs' Club. Anyone who is unable to attend the Friday night performance may at- tend the dress rehearsal Thursday evening for the same price. (Mrs. Chadwick-Collins lias asked the News to publish the following in- formation.) The College Entertainment Commit- tee is bringing, in a series, three en- tertainments to Goodhart Hall. The Vienna Choir Boys on January 10 for the benefit of the Bryn Mawr Hos- pital; Madame Engel Lund on February 8 for the benefit of the Mrs. Otis Skinner Theater Workshop; the Shan-Kar dancers on March 15, for the benefit of the Deanery. The Vienna Choir Boys, who have been to the college twice before and have both times had full houses, will leave America on January 22. Shan- Kar sails the end of March and does not expect to return for a number of years. � Madame Lund is a famous European singer, acclaimed by Eu- ropean critics, and is being brought to this country, for the first time, by Hurok, who brought the Russian Ballet and Shan-Kar to America. "She might be called a singing Ruth Draper, dramatizing as she does through song the folk of many na- tions." The London Daily Telegraph writes: "The first of Madame Engel Lund's three recitals of 'Songs of Many Lands' introduced to the big London public a very considerable artist and a personality of great charm. She has an enchantingly un- forced sense of humor. The two songs that went best of all were in strong contrast to each other�a gay, cynical little French fable and a re- ligious 'counting song' from Denmark. As attracts as anything else in the recital were Madame Lund's explana- tions of the songs, delivered in English." The committee is inaugurating a new policy in that these entertain- ments will be offered to the colleges and schools of the neighborhood in a $eriat at the following prices: Front section .................$5.00 Second section ...............� 4.50 Balcony ..........it.......... 3.50 Single tickets will be sold as fol- lows: For the Vienna Choir Boys Front section .................$2.50 Second section.............----- 2.00 Balcony ...................... 1-50 For Madame Lund Front section .................$1.50 Second section and balcony..... 1.00 For Shan-Kar Front section.................$2.50 Second section ................ 2.00 Balcony ...................... 1.50 "Orders for single tickets wtyl not be accepted until two weeks before each performance, except for the Vienna Choir Boys, notice of which will be mailed to the general public early in December. The purchase of a series ticket will not only be a sav- ing of money, but also will give first choice of seats in all sections. The members of the committee in all the halls will have order slips by Novem- ber 18. These must be filled in and returned by December 1 in order that seats may be allotted before the out- side sale for the Vienna Choir Boys begins. Payment for series tickets may be divided into three parts and paid in February, March and April. The members of the Committee are Continued on Pag� Two Spanish Relief The Non-Partisan Committee on Relief for Spanish Children, formed last spring at Bryn Mawr College, invites you to a lecture on Conditions in Spain: the Story of an Eye Witness, by Professor Patrick Murphy Malin, of Swarthmore College. Professor Malin spent last sum- mer in Spain investigating con- ditions under the auspices of the American Friends Service Com- mittee. The Bryn Mawr com- mittee consists of: Marion Edwards Park Joseph E. Gillet Marion Greenbaum, Graduate Student Julia Grant, 1938 Delia Marshall, 1939 Martha Van Hoesen, 1939 Undergraduate Secretary DorothyMacDonald, Treasurer Lily Ross Taylor, Chairman Infinite Fields Opened By Recording Machine Peculiarities of Language Are Studied and Eliminated Science Club to Hear Mrs. Harvey At the second meeting of the Sci- ence Club, Mrs. E. Newton Harvey, of Princeton, will speak on her re- search into the division of non-nu- cleated eggs. This lecturer will fol- low up Miss Gardiner's recent talk on heredity, in which she described melotic division in eggs containing nu- clei. Mrs. Harvey will illustrate her lec- ture with colored slides and movies of centrifuging eggs. The date of the lecture will be announced early next week, and the club invites anyone in- terested to attend. With the coming of the voice re- cording machine, the "Bryn Mawr accent" is a thing of the past, a le- gend never to be recalled. Affecta- ion is decidedly out. Such was the ultimatum passed by Miss Mary Hen- derson, director of all recordings. The machine, bought at a cost of five hundred dollars, is the property of the college. It consists of a cut- ter, which makes the record, and a loud speaker which plays the record back to, its listeners. Portable, it can be used wherever there is A. C. cur- rent. But a soundproof room has been provided in the basement of Pem- broke East for its use. It is hoped that everyone, faculty and students, will'avail themselves of the opportunity to use the machine. The French Department has already manifested its interest. Language students can be aided in pronuncia- tion, a& the recordings are almost in- fallible in the exposition of errors. Mr. Willoughby has also used the machine during rehearsals of the mad- rigal singing. Mistakes in pitch and tempo have been accurately demon- strated to the singers. Mr. Hans Schuman will record a number of his compositions for dancing classes. A charge of 75 cents will be made for all recordings. The charge cov- ers the cost of the metal discs, the needles, wear and tear on the ma- chine, and operating expenses. Rec- ords areJO and 12 inches respectively. Those interested in recording their singing voice may also do so. Fur- thermore, the department is anxious to experiment with the recording of musical instruments. � So far, the machine has been chief- ly used by the Freshman Speech classes. Records are being made at the beginning and end of the year. A complete geographical history of every member of the Class of '41 has been taken. The birthplace of the girl, of her parents and grandparents, location of her schools, and the ex- tent of her traveling have all been filed. From this information, pe- culiarities and faults in her speech < Continued on Pmc* Thre� New Dinner-Exchange Rule (Especially contributed by Julia Grant, '38.) A new system is being tried where- by students may have guests from other halls to dinner without having to send an exchange. Lists will be placed in each hall dated for each day in the week, and students plan- ning to go out for dinner will sign otv.tiM�"-- --�.far,iBjfldvan�e,AS possible. (Students' who are In the InffrmVry are not included in this arrangement.) When a student in a hall wishes to have a student from another hall to dinner, she will consult the list, and sign the name of her guest opposite the name of a student who has signed out. Any exchange for lunch must be arranged by the old system. Panofsky Explains Neo-Platonism as Influence on Titian Philosophical System Developed By Ficcino and Members Of Platonic Academy. CHRISTIAN AND PAGAN CREEDS ARE FUSED Goodhart, November 7.�In his fourth lecture, Mr. Panofsky explained the tieo-PIatonic system as the philoso- phy of the Renaissance. He described its development by Ficcino and other members of the Platonic Academy in Florence, and its influence on Titian, exemplified in three of his best known paintings, The Allegory, The Educa- tion of Cupid, and Sacred and Profane Love. Ficcino was the soul of the informal society which comprised the Floren- tine Academy. His task was three- fold: To translate the documents of Plato and Plotinus; To coordinate them into a living system; and to find a new Platonic meaning in old writers and harmonize it with the Christian religion, the first attempt to fuse the Christian philosophy with a great pagan philosophy. In Ficcino's universe, God is uni- form action, not movement, a God in whom being, thinking, and willing are the same. "He fills the universe without being filled, pervades it with- out being pervaded, and includes it without being included." Ficcino conceived of a sphere with God on the outside, then concentric circles of cos- mic mind and celestial world. The celestial world is called cosmic soul, as against cosmic mind, and is mov- able with self-induced movement. Here we have pure causes. Cosmic spirit connects these causes with na- ture, which is no longer incorruptible, but composed of forms and matter, and matter is the innermost circle. The concentric spheres are one living thing, with a current of energy flow- ing from above to below, each circle of being contemplating and caring for the one within it. For his conception of the human soul, Ficcino shared a belief in the analogy between the macrocosm and the microcosm, where body and soul correspond to the material and the im- material. Propagation, growth, and perception are determined by the physical condition. The higher soul has two faculties, reason and mind; reason communicates with the body, mind with the cosmic or divine mind. Mind has to illuminate reason during her struggles with body, and is thus sometimes forced to look down instead of up. Continued on Pago Four MODEL LEAGUE WILL BE HELD AT RUTGERS Merion Showcase, November 9.� The International Relations Club met this afternoon to discuss the possi- bility of attending the Model League of Nations which is to be held this year at Rutgers University on April 7, 8, and 9. Five countries were voted on as possible for representation. They are, in preferential order: Rus- sia, France, China, and England and Argentina, the last two tying for fifth choice. Since the Model Assembly is going to discuss the Far Eastern problem, and the relation of the League to foreign interference in internal con- flicts, any one of these countries would be important. Russia is promi- nent in both categories, for she is con- cerned in interference in Spain as well as in the Far East. France is also prominent in international af- fairs, whereas England has not only an interest in China and the Mediter- ranean area, but also retains a key position in international affairs. Ar- gentina is important mainly because of her leading part in South America and because she entertains the hope of bringing all countries together, under her own guidance, in an effort toward international peace and under- standing.

This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
I'm one of those gamers who has played all of the Assassin's Creed games more than once and hated, just HATED, Assassin's Creed 3. I was really hesitant to pay another $60 for AC4, but am very glad I gave the franchise another go. AC4 is exactly what I've come to expect from Ubisoft. They have definitely redeemed themselves in my eyes. The action picks up immediately, the cut-scenes are crisp and seamless without the looonnngg dead spaces between them as in AC3. And they stopped dragging you around by the nose, which I really appreciate. I can go where I please and explore the gorgeous cities, picking and choosing whether I hunt treasure or rescue pirates or follow the story line. I can do all the sneaking and shooting and assassinating in whatever sequence pleases me and the story, so far, is really fun! I haven't run into any real bugs yet. Edward is occasionally a little slow climbing or hiding, but you can get used to that. The naval scenes are great. So, Ubisoft, all is almost forgiven. AC4 Rocks!!

What a wonderful world!,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
As a Skyrim fan, I'm surprised to find out that AC IV has a more appealing and vast world. With its fascinating ocean, colorful tropical islands and exotic cities, AC IV is such a visual feast. The world is really huge for you to explore, you can chase sea shanties, seek buried treasures, rob cargos to upgrade your ship, get materials for cool costumes, raid tombs for some Mayan mysteries, leap in a tropical jungle to hunt panthers or just abuse your mighty powers and gadgets over some poor guys, etc, roaming the AC IV world freely is pure fun.
Anybody disappointed by AC III should give it a try. The core mechanics of the game stays largely the same, however, improvements and modifications bring it a totally new feel. I, whom AC III's clumsy gameplay system gave a constant headache, could hardly believe that AC IV's gameplay gives me a satisfying experience. Combat is faster, so timing of counter/attack is more challenging. Enemies can do much more harm and can shoot you down if you're climbing up the wall trying to escape, making the combat much more intense. And you have all these new upgradeable gadgets to use, switching between different tools is much more convenient than in AC III. Besides, since the world is much more sandbox-y than ACIII with a much more diversified and open environment, the game really encourages different approaches. I love stealth approach a lot, which you can really do in nearly every task, and the it's incredibly fun and fulfilling. The system is totally revamped, easy to understand and handy to use, which helps me recover from suffering of AC III's confusing system. I haven't gotten into the story too much yet but I think an average Hollywood plot will be enough for such a fun game. There are some bugs, but it's already pretty good for such a vast open world in which you can do a lot of difficult interactive movements. And the naval world? Couldn't be better. This game has totally lived up to the hype around the pirate theme. The ocean itself is breathtaking. Dense fog with deadly ships rising from legend, monstrous waves and tornados coming at you in a scary storm, rosy sunset over the horizon with white sea gulls flying by, or just a tranquil ocean under a starry sky, Ubisoft has done a legendary job bringing all the beauty on high seas to your TV screen. The naval combat couldn't be more fun and has become my new hobby. Don't get it wrong because the original formula from old AC games has been polished to such a new height that the land part is already much better than older installments, it's just that Ubisoft has built a parallel naval world that is as appealing, if not more. Two worlds are integrated seamlessly together, making AC IV the best pirate game ever. Overall, this is an amazing game with a fantastic world. For me, it's like playing a much more nimble, no-magic dragonborn(a Nord I guess) in a world similar to Skyrim, but much more colorful, light and diversified. The only big problem might be that AC IV would keep you occupied and unwilling to quit for a long time. I'm writing this comment after a long night's exploration of Havana and some islands. Anybody who want a highly-disciplined life should NOT get this game because it can suck you many hours without you noticing it. BTW, I really love the soundtrack. It has a really sweet Caribbean flavor and really fits in with the environment. This game is an auditory feast as well. So what else to say? AC IV comes at a special time when the whole industry is ready to move onto next gen. This is a symbolic end of current gen and I'm not sure if I'll keep gaming like before. But AC IV comes along and for me it puts an glorious end of current gen. So...everything aside, just grab your pistols and sword, hop onto your ship and sail under the black flag to this wonderful world!

Pirating game: 5/5. Assassin's Creed: 3.5/5,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
In a nutshell, it's easier to understand this game if you break the title into 2 distinct sections
Assassin's Creed IV: You get all the action and gameplay from the franchise, though the story is not as compelling or interesting as its predecessors. On top of that, it's harder to like Edward Kenway (the protagonist) than any of the previous ones, Ezio Aldatore being my personal favorite. And while the single player is filled with famous characters from the golden age of pirates, your character seems selfish and disinterested in the world around them, looking to gain fame and wealth for about 90% of the game before you are accepted as a true assassin. Basically, you're just a selfish dick with sick parkour skills for most of the game, which doesn't really fit well with the "Creed" part of Assassins Creed. But, you still get that great multiplayer experience which will definitely keep you busy and entertained for a while. Black Flag: Probably the best pirating game of all time. The open world of AC4 gives a very grand scope to this game; it's HUGE and dynamic, filled with great collectables, like messages in bottles, buried loot, and much more. Levelling up your ship is no easy task, capturing and plundering other vessels is always a joy, and naval contracts and big sea battles are the cherry on top of the cake. If you love pirates and want a completely different experience, look no further.

This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
One of my early faves on my C64 (yep...dated reference and I already know that scores of younger gamers will now just groan and move on to a much more technical review, but there are at least a few old timers who never gave it up) was "Pirate's" by Sid Meier. As a fan of the pirate genre, I have seen many attempts at recreating that gem with all the new engines, and graphics bells and whistles that have come to the gaming world, but none have ever really been able to re-create that feeling.
I have only had the game for a short while. And that can be deceptive. Assassin's Creed III initially hit me with a "wow" factor, but I guess I just got too side tracked and eventually forgot the story and just quit playing. Assassin's Creed II had sort of spoiled me. I promise to update over the next few days as I delve deeper...but already I am blown away. Sound is amazing, and the graphics pull you in. But I got this title for the Pirate theme...and so far I am NOT disappointed. I will update tonight, but if you are feeling the vibe I am trying to put across and wondering..."DO I spend the bucks?" SO far the answer is YES! So, after a day, the game has given me none of the frustration I felt with AC III. If anything, the fighting sequences feel more fluid. Perhaps I am just more used to the controls. However, this is a very open world! And the scenery is amazing. This is a game that I will probably become engrossed in for extended periods. I haven't even got to the real "piratey" stuff yet!

Assasin's Creed Does it Again!
I actually liked AC3, unlike many people. Part of it is, as a history teacher, I really enjoy the American Revolution, so I found it a great setting in which to play the game. I wasn't particularly excited about AC4, because again as history teacher, I know about pirates as the disgusting and brutal creatures that they were, as opposed to the romance novel version that most people think of. Nevertheless, the images of naval combat drew me in, and I sure am glad to be here! Graphically, this is a pretty major improvement on AC3. The graphics of AC3 left me a bit underwhelmed, especially when viewed against Skyrim or HALO 4. Not so here. AC4 visuals are much clearer and more vivid. The characters clothing are all outstanding. Combat is quicker and a bit more complicated, but not particularly difficult to get used to. The world is more open to exploration (except in some sequences) than in AC3, too, which allows you more variation in your tactics. All in all, if you like Assasins Creed at all, you must get this one. If you were turned off by AC3, please give this one a try. I think it will win you back!

I've never been an Assassin's Creed fan (I know, blasphemy!) But what I loved about AC 3 were the ship battles by far, and here we go. The very first thing you do is take hold of a vessel in the middle of combat, a great way to start. And thankfully the whole "Animus/Desmond" portion has been considerably cut down, never cared for it; it took you out of the world. I have both the 360 and the digital PS3 versions. Both run excellently.
If I had a complaint at this point, it would be the case, it contains two disks (pretty much norm now for DVD console games) but this is the first time I've seen them practically sitting on top of each, as opposed to having a divider of some kind. But that is minor. Also I've only seen this on the 360, but on Xbox Live it has unlock add-ons already. And not just for single player, but multiplayer as well (and for $24.99 a piece at that). That move I do not understand, you just release the game then release add-ons that allows anyone in multiplayer to boast way up. Anyways, minor complaints, the game itself is solid.

YAR! A pirate's life for me...,
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
I'll keep this short because there is a ton of info and more reviews coming of course but to sum it up this is a heck of a lot FUN! The world is open and I keep finding new things to do. I actually liked AC3 unlike most people reviewing here - I liked it a lot. This game, though using the same basic engine is COMPLETELY different. Many many people were dubious whether or not AC could work in a "pirate" world but it is amazing how much of the gameplay you would expect from this franchise transitions PERFECTLY to a "pirate's life". I remember reading about the devs saying exactly that many months ago but seeing and playing it firsthand I have to agree whole-heartedly. I'll just sum it up by saying that this is somehow the most ADDICTING gameplay I've experienced yet in an Assassin's Creed title (and I love them all honestly)... I played yesterday for nearly 10 hours and have no idea how it became 2:30am suddenly and where all the time went I don't know! I was on the high seas, matey!
edit: after probably another 12 hrs of play... I honestly don't know how many i've logged so far, but i just got to the point where the diving bell is introduced and that first sequence is mind blowing. Changing my total review from 4 to 5 stars. Outstanding game... so much diversity. Just outstanding.

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
I swore after the wretched Assassin's Creed 3 that I would never pay full price for an AC game again. Then they had to go and make a game about pirates. Oh well. So is it any good?
Well, if you like the Assassin's Creed series, but hated AC3 then there's good news and bad news. Good news is for the most part they've ditched the handholding. Gone is the awful 6 hour long tutorial - the tutorial levels in Black Flag feel like they forward the story and you can get through them pretty quickly. They've also mixed up the formula a bit by giving you more pirate-y things to do, so while there's still the same old "chase after the courier here" type busy work, there's also a lot of freedom to take to the ocean and explore. The bad news with the game is, much like AC3 and Revelations, it still lacks polish. The actual fights can be frustrating, there's texture pop in and bugs that obviously need to be patched. It would be nice if Ubisoft would stop releasing beta versions of their software and expecting people to plunk down $60. On the whole though, the formula might be getting a little stale but it's a relief that AC feels fun again after the awful AC3 and that alone is worth giving it 4 starts.

I like it. I don't want to make you read too much. Here's what I think:
PROS - Stunning environments and graphics, the sea, the islands, the towns, the character design, music and voice acting. - Original game play, trips on the ship are fun and there are many new features like upgrading the ship and hiring pirates among others. - Enormous-gigantic MAP! -Ship battle and gameplay is really fun. CONS (you don't have to agree with me) - Some side quests are repetitive or extremely boooring! such as collecting fragments or chests (although finding chest from map on corpses is fun). - You cannot kill civilians like on AC2 (you can if you use a gun, but cannot throw people away or assassinate them). - Lack of items (guns, swords, and other equipment), there aren't to many items to get, it would be nice to find special items on the chests like swords, helms and stuff like that (like Skyrim), items are limited. - It would also be nice if the character learns new fighting abilities or combos (like on Batman Arkham series), that is kind of limited as well. - Online multiplayer is fun, but the search engine is awful, for an instance, I want to play dominion but can't select or join to a server that has started the game (or at least I have't found the option). And coop mode is not that fun for me.

A brilliant and addictive experience that likes to troll you,
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
First off, I'm a newcomer to the AC series. I've known about it since it first came out but didn't have a 7th gen console to play the first back in '07. As such, I only followed it from the sidelines, that is until Black Flag was announced. Much as I love this game, there is much that annoys and frustrates me which I will get to after I've addressed all the positives.
The main feature of this game, piloting your own ship as you navigate the Caribbean to pillage and plunder, plays better than I had hoped. You really get the feel of controlling the seemingly massive ship as you steer across a constantly shifting landscape of rolling waves. To control a ship from the perspective of the pilot, moving the massive wheel and watching the entire vessel turn slowly, would have been an amazing novelty on its own, but it's the water physics that make this experience shine. Your boat will be tossed and turned by waves, winds and storms as you sail from place to place, making even the mundane task of travel a fun and stimulating exercise. Patrolling the landscape of, say, Skyrim was already fun, but in Black Flag, the landscape is never static and you feel as if the world is interacting with you as much as your are interacting with it. I seriously can't help but smile with childish glee as I watch my ship sail around at Travel Speed, the camera following at a distance while my crew sings Sea Chanties. (I actually love finding new chanties around the game because I can't wait to hear what new song my crew has learned!). The first time I piloted a ship through a fierce storm after escaping from a British ship and saving several others who would become my loyal crew, my jaw dropped in awe. Imagine the gut clenching tension of going up a roller coaster as you feel the world angle upwards, waiting for the inevitable drop with fear and excitement. This was the feeling I got when I sailed into a large wave head on, braving its onslaught to avoid the pummeling it would have given me had I tried to turn away in vain. This is your inception into the world of Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag. It grabs you by the seat of your pants and throws you into the experience, and what an experience it is. The sandbox (or fish tank, as it were) is a world with plenty to do and explore as you travel around collecting treasures and other collectibles both on land and at sea. The main theme of being a pirate is put side to side with that of being an assassin without one overshadowing the other. You will patrol the waves, looking through your spy glass at targets to strike. Once you've taken their load of commercial items, you can sell them for money or use to continually upgrade you ship into a mighty vessel that can stand up to even the most powerful of ships. The weapons at your disposal include cannons fired from the sides of your ship, featuring standard ammunition which is infinite, and heavy shot which packs a punch but has less range. Front cannons fire chain shots which slow down your victim, and mortar fires powerful shots far overhead to strike vessels and forts from a safer distance. The waves move enemy vessels as much as they move you, an element to take advantage of. Angling your shots over a particularly large wave which simultaneously shields you from the enemy's fire is a strategy that works well. Once you've crippled a ship, you can then sail up close to it for the boarding process. These segments are fun, but also one the sources of the game's needless frustrations. Most often, conquering a ship will be as simple as killing a set amount of soldiers and their officers before they surrender. Other times, however, you'll have to kill scouts up in crows nests or, I kid you not, destroy the enemy flag. While these segments show off the mechanics of parkour on a ships rafters they usually amount to tedious tasks that force you to jump around looking for the proper footing while the swords clash below. I can't help by feel like I could be doing something more important, like helping my crew while they're getting killed off, instead of climbing to the top of the ship for a freaking flag. I feel like ship parkour is being forced on me. Yeah, it's cool and all but most of the time it's impractical, so why does it have to make you do it? I need to be fighting with my crew and helping them before they get killed! Which brings me to the combat. It's apparent that Ubisoft was trying to emulate the combat from the Arkham games, what with your character, Edward, being able to fight and parry multiple enemies at once. But whereas Arkham City feels fast, fluid and intuitive, this game feel more like a button masher with clunky gameplay. The combat is not terrible mind you. Grabbing an enemy to use as human shield before an enemy can shoot is fun and movie like, but in the end, a movie is all if feels like since I'm only hitting buttons when the prompt comes up. Not quite QTE but not as involving as it could be. (Editor's note: before anyone tries to tell me again that this style of combat existed first in the Ass Creed series before the Arkham series, let me remind YOU that it in fact existed before either in the Matrix video games for the PS2. And if I make more of a comparison between the Batman games and the Matrix games, it's because both had more refined combat whereas this is sluggish, so there. Don't you feel clever now with your passive-aggressive, cutesy emoticons) Having read other people's reviews on various AC games, I find myself plagued by similar grievances addressed by them in the past, such as the story based missions. Sneaking around as an assassin is fun but sometimes absurd. There are times when you need to jump carefully from place with swiftness and then there are times when you just need to take it slow. But in AC there doesn't seem to be a button for sneaking. You're either walking or running from bush to bush to conceal yourself, not moving slowly in a crouched walk like you ought to. It makes me pine for the days of MGS3: Snake Eater when sneaking around was a simple and easy on my nerves as crawling from bush to bush. Sneaking feels hit or miss in AC 4. It's either fun or frustrating. It's especially frustrating when you've spent an entire segment sneaking your way through without getting seen, and getting caught anyway as the story dictates. After all that, I feel like I've been trolled by the game (because I just spent the last twenty minutes trying and failing over and over just because I didn't act fast enough or failed to notice that one guard!). Even more frustrating are the segments when you have to tail someone just to listen in on their dialogue. I'm too concerned with not getting spotted and staying within the designated listening range to pay attention to what they're saying, so I imagine Edward can't concentrate on what they're saying either (why do you make me do this, game!). For as much as you'd be led to believe there are multiple ways around a situation sometimes there's only one, and not following this very narrow setup as the game dictates will only result in more punishment, via being forced to do it all over again. Fortunately, only the story segments are like this. The rest of the time you can approach a situation however you'd like to during the small time assassinations peppered throughout the game. Sneaking around (when it works) and silently dispatching your hit without anyone seeing is a rewarding thrill, as is running away by scaling rooftops and trees. Although, parkour on trees is very hit or miss as it's not often clear which tree you're supposed to jump to. And trying to climb higher up a tree will have you inadvertently jumping off, which means climbing back up again! But probably the worst climbing segment is when you have to climb a windmill to talk to an important character (who just HAD to choose a dangerous place to climb up to). Be prepared to die a couple times trying not to fall off the spinning blades. Also, as pointed out by another reviewer who hated AC3, sudden QTEs with dangerous predators leaping at you is not very fun at all. What it all amounts to is that AC 4 is such an amazing and addictive game that the occasional moments of frustration will seem all the worse when the game mechanics suddenly feel awkward or asinine. If feels like a truly great game is trying to get out but is being held back by the status quo of the series. This makes you, the player, feel held back whenever a task seems too demanding or when you're reminded that this is all a simulation in the Animus. You're actually some nameless dude sitting at a desk at Abstergo and you have to keep the memories of Edward synchronized or the whole thing goes Matrix on you and the maritime environments suddenly look digitized. I didn't get into the .Hack// JRPGs because I didn't like the idea of a video game about a video game so why does AC need to have this whole Animus conceit? I don't care about the present day, I care about the past! Isn't the whole point of games to escape sometimes and forget reality? Well, anyways this game is still amazing and I strongly recommend it. Just be prepared for frustration to come in the wake (no pun intended) of great fun. |
