Carol Reed Mystery # 8
Len Green email@example.com
7th February 2012
There should be no need to use this walkthrough since there is a very sophisticated & detailed dynamic hint system built into the game itself! (It is fully described both in the tutorial and the manual.)
It has been excellently and almost uniquely devised for a non-linear game so that the player can get help at ANY/EVERY stage of the game without revealing any future gameplay.
****** But if you so desire --- carry on ! ******
This walkthrough describes ALL the actions which you must take in order to succeed, together with a relatively small number which are not essential to completing the game.
However, please dont use this walkthrough unless you absolutely have to. Some aspects which are not absolutely imperative have been omitted. A lot of these are interesting and provide much of the background story to the game, and particularly to the fascinating (and artistic) character, scenery and history of Norrköping... a relatively small town in Sweden, and home to the Developer, Mikael Nyqvist.
"Warning:" The main purpose of this game is to examine items, interview people, solve puzzles and to unravel the mystery and reveal the criminal. In addition to all this, to view the interesting sights and scenery, and generally 'act the tourist in Sweden!,' etc.
If you simply take this walkthrough in your hand (or consult all the built-in hints) and follow exactly what to do and not to do, you can probably finish the game quite quickly. However, that would completely defeat its whole purpose!
The walkthrough does not do justice to "Amber's Blood"! A very great part of the interest and beauty of the game is wandering around through the vast number of locations, views, residences, etc
There is a lot of interesting history and material in Norrköping, a small but quite important city whose population is a little under 100,000 and whose original roots date back to the 14th century, or earlier!
● This is a first-person completely point 'n' click game covering many different locations and interesting places. It does not contain many 'stand-alone' puzzles, and those included are generally not too difficult.
● You should most certainly NOT have to follow the same order of accessing locations or performing actions as described in this walkthrough since the game is mainly non-linear.
There are a very great number of permutations of routes, and it is almost impossible that two players will follow exactly the same route and itinerary throughout the whole game from start to finish. Many locations of course will not appear on the map and hence be available until you have completed certain tasks. And so, due to this, in these cases a particular order IS mandatory. Other than that, you are free to visit (&/or revisit) all locations on the map and perform all actions as and when you see fit!
In addition it is quite possible that this walkthrough does not describe the best or even optimum route to play the game (and finish it completely)!
● In "Amber's Blood" you cannot get killed -- or its equivalent! However, as in most adventure games, it is easy to make wrong or redundant moves! So it is advisable to save frequently.
There are just over a 100 save-slots... in case anybody needs that many! So you can save as often as you like.
● Every time you obtain a new item, it will appear in your inventory. You should observe each new inventory item immediately by right-clicking on it to get an excellent greatly enlarged picture of the item together with a very short caption outlining its description (just in case it's not 100% obvious!).
● It is imperative to view, and sometimes to manipulate, some of the inventory items in close-up to complete some action upon them. In addition, some inventory items will combine with others to form new items there. And so attempts must be made to test this.
● Whenever a new location appears on the map and until you go there for the first time, the location-label remains continuously 'blinking' on the map!
● In the text, where the instruction says to 'click,' the meaning is to LEFT-click once. Otherwise it will read, 'right-click' etc..
● All objects which are acquired and acquired and entered into the inventory are written in pale green.
Verbatim quotes of Carol's from the game are copied exactly in pink italics surrounded by double quotes.
● If you are not too acquainted with this type of Quest-Adventure game, play through the short tutorial which will familiarize you with the controls and interface.
******* Otherwise skip it, start the game, and ENJOY! ********

Giants and Dwarfs
In the chapter on giants, I listed Leonid Stadnyk as the tallest living person, at 8 feet 4 inches. He is currently not recognized as the tallest person due to his refusal to be measured; it is believed that he is "only" around 7 feet 8 inches. Instead, the record is currently held by Sultan Kösen, who made the headlines this week when he received treatment to his pituitary gland in order to prevent his growing beyond his current height of 8 feet 3 inches. The reason for the intervention was that the human skeleton is simply not strong enough to support such a large figure. (Which is a problem for those who insist that the Levi'im were all fifteen feet tall. But I don't think that there are many people who believe that anyway; I've never seen illustrations that depict them as being so tall.)
In the chapter on dwarfs, I listed Gul Mohammed of India (1957-1997) as the shortest person ever measured, at 22.5 inches tall. But a few weeks ago, a 72-year old Nepali villager, Chandra Bahadur Dangi, was measured at 21.5 inches tall. Pharaoh certainly theoretically could have been eighteen inches tall, as the Gemara says; but as I explained in Sacred Monsters, I don't think that this is what the Gemara meant.
Baruch meshaneh habriyos.

That picture is hard to tell, but does Chandra have full legs? Does that affect the stat?

In the illustrated mishnayos by yoni on Shabbos in perek hazorek the leviim are shown to be much taller than normal men.

What publication is that?
How tall are they depicted? 10 amos - fifteen feet? - March 14, 2012 at 4:36 PM

When I was a kid I asked if Aharon was actually so tall, why did he need steps to reach the Menorah (which was three cubits high - the height of the average man)?

>>>> Which is a problem for those who insist that the Levi'im were all fifteen feet tall.
why is this a problem. you know very well that "nishtana hatevah" and skeletons were very much sturdier 3000 years ago. or else can you explain that Og was more than 1000 feet tall. - March 14, 2012 at 8:25 PM

Did that fellow really insist that they were that tall, or did he perhaps, rather, intend to insist that one shouldn't be so fast to reject that possibility?
> "Pharaoh certainly theoretically could have been eighteen inches tall, as the Gemara says"
You mean, as many interpreters of Gemara's "amah" posit what the Gemara means. - March 15, 2012 at 5:19 AM
"Pharaoh certainly theoretically could have been eighteen inches tall, as the Gemara says; but as I explained in Sacred Monsters, I don't think that this is what the Gemara meant."
It is not easy for everyone to agree about what the Gemora or Midrashim really mean.
For example, with regard to the relationship between Mordechai and Esther, the Gemora, Megillah 13a, states that Mordechai married Esther. Further, in Megillah 13b it states that Esther would be with Achashveirosh, dip in a mikva, and then be with Mordechai.
Some Gedolim believe that both statements of the Gemora are literally true. They go to extreme lengths and twist logic to maintain these assumptions.
Others believe that Mordechai and Esther were literally married, but they balk at the idea that they continued their marital relationship after Esther was taken by Achashveirosh. They understand the first statement literally while the second is understood allegorically and/or spiritually.
Still others believe - based on their strong rationalist perspective - that neither of these statements of the Gemora are literally true. These including the Rambam (as explained by Kesef Mishna on Yad Hachazaka Hilchos Yesodei HaTorah beginning of Perek 5), Ibn Ezra on Esther 2:7, Sefer Yosef Lekach, and others. They understand these statement as being compeltely metaphorical and that the Gemora never meant for them to be taken literally.
Evidently things have not changed very much since the Rambam's time, when as he lamented in his Peirush on Mishnayis, Prek Cheilek, that most religious Jews espoused an irrational world view and an irrational understanding of the sayings for Chazal. In our time still only a minute percentage of our co-religionists envision the Torah and the world in a rational way.
Thankfully there is at least one place where people can go where preference for rationality is the norm. Thank you R' Slifkin. - March 15, 2012 at 6:12 AM
"Baruch meshaneh habriyos."
How do you understand this bracha? These people suffer from a grave deformity. No doubt their most fervent wish would be to be "normal".
How could one praise Hashem for this? - March 15, 2012 at 5:52 PM
Blessed are you, O mighty god who arbitrarily deforms some of his creatures at birth in all sorts of capricious and nasty ways.

I can't speak for Rabbi Slifkin, but it is my understanding that in general, berachot are not praise of Hashem, but acknowledgement of Hashem. Baruch Dayan Haemet is a more common example. You don't stand there at the kevurah and say it with praise. You stand there at the kevura and acknowledge that Hashem is the true judge.
Most things we say berachot for, we are actually glad or thankful for the subject of the beracha, and thus we might be moved by our acknowledgment to praise or thanksgiving. But the beracha in and of itself is not praise, but acknowledgment. - March 16, 2012 at 11:48 PM

The HTC Golf aka Desire C resurfaced a few days back with some leaked images, which was followed yesterday by confirmation that the low-end HTC device would indeed continue the Desire series, after some speculation…
We've already walked you through the specs of the new HTC One, as well as all the details regarding the HTC One's price and availability.
In this post we've rounded up the official press images that HTC released today, as well as some stills from a hands-on video, courtesy of MobileGeeks.de.
We will update this post with images from the HTC One launch event in New York, as well as hands-on pics of the device taken by our colleague Kris Wouk.
Stay tuned!

We all want to say yes, do it all, have it all. We all have some sort of limitation whether it be Fibromyalgia or something else. Those of us that "suffer in silence" from something we can't see have it just a little bit tougher. People don't see an amputated limb or a limp, they see what appears to them a healthy individual.
As a result it's left to me to explain my limitations. Some people probably think me unreliable because sometimes I just wake up to sore to do the thing I wanted to do that day. I feel bad because I was always raised to keep commitments but sometimes I just can't. It's not that I am not strong enough or because I'm suffering from a flu, it's because I know that if I push the envelope too far I will pay for it later.
Yesterday was one of those days. My arms and lower back have been very sore. I planned a fun dive with a friend and I was really looking forward to it. But when I woke up yesterday morning I could just tell I wasn't going to be able to do it all. I spent Saturday and was to spend part of Sunday in class for my EFR-I credential and I just knew that diving and pushing it was a bad idea. Luckily she was understanding and said she was thinking of canceling as well. So I was saved from feeling guilty.
The limitation frustrates me to no end. I want to be able to do it all, and lately I have been. Because I have been doing so much my body has been telling me to slow down. So, rather than go diving, I came home and took a nap. It felt good to rest and I felt an instant relief when I layed in my bed. It's an "ahhh" feeling.
The holidays were so crazy and they flew right by. I worked 3-4 days a week in addition to my duties as a wife and mother. Now that's done and had a relatively slow week last week. When I slowed down and took a day to catch up around the house is when I felt it. Starting tonight I have the instructor development course which will run 4 nights a week plus weekends for the next 3 weeks. After that I have the Instructor Exam which is an entire weekend. So I have to save my energy for that. I have to discipline myself, go to bed early and rely on some help from my friends and my husband. Hopefully he knows that he will be doing most of the cooking/cleaning and kid chasing for the next 3 weeks. John is incredibly supportive and has been alongside me through the diagnosis and treatment. He knows, sometimes before I do, when I am getting run down. He's usually good at helping out.
I'm excited for the things to come in the coming weeks and I think I'm prepared. All I need now is for my body to hold up to the demands of the course.
I have experienced the tender points in my elbows for the first time this week. They are sore to move around and so is everything else it seems. But this is the first time experiencing this particular pain. My feet have been pretty sore too, at times it makes me limp. I'm hoping for the some relief with the new shoes I ordered.
I try very hard to manage the pain and I usually do pretty well with Yoga poses, the TENS unit, and when absolutely necessary pain medication. I don't take motrin because too much of that will give me and ulcer. Tylenol isn't a good option either because long-term use of that will trash my liver. So I try my best to manage without medication. I do have days though where I've tried everything else and I have to submit. I count myself lucky that I don't need heavy narcotics like Vicodin or Percocet. The best pain relief for someone with Fibro is to remain well rested so I have to work on getting to bed earlier and grabbing a nap where I can.
So here's hoping the next 3 weeks go smoothly.

The William Lauder Memorial Organ Recital
Armagh City
26 May 2013 - 26 May 2013
The Revd. Adrian McLaughlin will give this month's organ recital on Sunday 26 May 2013 at 4.15pm in St Patrick's Church of Ireland Cathedral, Armagh.
Adrian McLaughlin started playing and composing for the piano from the age of 5 and has been mainly self-taught. He explains, "I fell in love with the pipe organ at the age of 16, after accidentally listening to a tape of Bach organ music, and from then on I took up all things 'organic'! I gained experience both in playing the organ and with its inner workings whilst at Methodist College, Belfast, and took several posts helping out churches as organist".
Adrian has had a varied career path, involving pyrotechnics, chemistry, teaching, organ building and theological studies. He was appointed Curate of Bangor Abbey over five years ago, and is presently on sabbatical to build a house in Islandmagee. Currently he is Chairman of the Pipe Organ Preservation Trust, which has awarded over £150,000 to churches and schools throughout the UK to enable them to afford a pipe organ.
Adrian's great interest in the French Romantic Period of organ building and composition will be reflected in his programme for the recital, which will be made up entirely of his own compositions. He says, "Although being worked upon and edited, many of these pieces have been born out of a passion for this period of French music".
As with all the organ recitals, admission is free, with a retiring collection requested for the further endowment of the Archbishop of Armagh's Choir Fund. As there are no expenses, the donations of previous audiences and the use of Gift Aid have raised approximately £1,700 to date.

Why study Technology
"Globalisation and technological change are the two key features that are changing and shaping our lives. The technology curriculum has now developed to a level that I strongly recommend it as a subject, both to students who have an interest in making a career in engineering, technology or science, and generally as a means of better understanding the modern world."
Professor Bob Hodgson, Former Director, School of Engineering, Massey University
Almost every aspect of our daily life – food, health care, transport, communications, entertainment, our environment – uses technology. This technology is constantly evolving and is changing the way we look at things and how we do things.
New Zealanders have an impressive history for being innovative and creative in technology areas. From Burt Munro (real-life protagonist of The World's Fastest Indian), John Britten (a motorcycle designer), Peter Witehira (an award winning technologist, battery creator) to more recent examples, such as Orca, Canterbury, and Icebreaker (performance sports wear), Alan Gibbs (of the Aquada aqua car), and Weta Workshop and Weta Digital (creating film and television effects, sets and props), New Zealanders can be proud of our country's contribution to technological advancements.
Technological literacy is becoming increasingly important to our everyday lives. Specialised technological knowledge and skills are vital to the current and future well-being of New Zealand – we need an increasingly wide range of technology professionals in many different fields to remain competitive and to contribute globally.
These pages explain what the subject Technology is and how it is being taught in New Zealand schools, and the new and exciting possibilities this presents for your child.

Radnor schools OK full-day kindergarten
Full-day kindergarten got the go-ahead by a 5-4 vote during Tuesday night's Radnor Township School Board meeting. The vote approved a hybrid option for district children with the current half-day site-based program offered at Wayne and Radnor elementary schools and a pilot full-day at Ithan Elementary.
The board's decision followed a presentation of full-day options by RTSD administrators and more than an hour of discussion and debate by the board.
The board had approved full-day kindergarten as part of its current budget in May by a 6-3 vote, "preferably in September 2013, but no later than September 2014" and had set aside funding. That passage, however, did not stipulate the extent of the program or whether it would be offered to all Radnor kindergartners in all locations.
Recapping options, administrators indicated that FDK would not be feasible in all locations at this time "due to lack of space." Ithan, therefore, became the choice for additional or extended classes.
The options under consideration became "Hybrid option: Half-day site-based and full-day at IES," which was eventually approved; "Full day at IES," which received little attention; and, "Half-day site-based plus one or two full day [classes] at IES for students at risk."
The "students at risk" proposal received serious consideration in that several board members saw it as a way to bring youngsters without strong skills up to speed by first grade. The hybrid model could offer parents a choice, maintain a pilot-sized group, but could also include an at-risk provision. Other school districts (Central Bucks and Council Rock were named) have geared their programs for an "at risk" group.
As the board had approved the full-day concept in the spring, what was needed, assistant superintendent Kim Maguire reminded the board, was "a decision."
Now there is one.

Hi! I've been in Buffalo almost six weeks, and I'm having a great time! People keep asking me the same question: How do you like it here so far? Some people have asked me more than once, perhaps expecting that I'm going to change my answer. So far, I haven't.

High temperatures will increase to the low 60s on Monday. These temperatures haven't been this high for nearly a month here.
Along with the above average temps, scattered rain will move through at times on Sunday with partly sunny skies at times.
More rain is expected to move in later Monday.

It was a warm Easter this year with rain showers, which isn't as rare as you may think.
The high temperature for Easter Sunday, 2013 was 58 degrees, well above the daily average of 48, in Buffalo. Rainfall was measured at the Buffalo Airport at 0.08".
Looking back at high temperatures for Easter over the past 12 years, about half of the Easter Sundays were at or above average, and half had precipitation, mainly in the form of rain.
However, take the data with a grain of salt since Easter can fall on a Sunday in March or even in late April.
Note: My current meteorology intern, Chase, helped me with these stats. Yes, he interned on Easter. That's how it is in this business. Work odd hours and most holidays. Have to really love what you do!

Meg Felton Staunton and Nancy Lefkowitz, two Fairfield, CT Moms, have created MARCH FOR CHANGE, a grassroots, bi-partisan organization that is providing a platform for people to rally in Hartford on February 14th at 11AM demanding safer gun laws in the state of CT. Please check out the website: www.MarchForChange.org to get a sense of what we are about.
There has been a groundswell of support for this movement. That said, as an organization we need support from all over the state in order to ensure critical mass that will enable change. We are not looking to ban guns, we are simply looking to enact laws that will make gun ownership safer for our children. Please consider signing onto our website below to receive emails on what we are doing and how you can get involved. Thank you and please contact us with any questions.

50 of the World's Best Guided Expeditions
We're traveling again. Tour operators are reporting big spikes in inquiries and bookings. But an uncertain economy, ongoing wars, and the fragile health of the planet have, perhaps permanently, reordered priorities. Travelers now seek more perspective, meaning, and challenge. They want to see the unvarnished reality of a place, not just the fantasy. Outfitters have responded by dialing down the luxury and refocusing on core offerings. Their itineraries are more innovative and experiential—aimed at developing lasting connections between people. Here are 50 of the world's best guided tours for 2010, as chosen by the editors of National Geographic Traveler magazine.

I got inspired by the Relief Society Declaration Subway Art shared by a visitor and decided to try my hand at creating subway art, too.
Mercy's sake -- it's TIME CONSUMING!
It took me about 3 hours to make this version of the Young Women's theme in the subway art style. The image has nearly all the words of the theme on it.
Since it took so long to make to make this image, I'm including several versions of it and I am creating some cards and clipart out of the image as well. I've made negative, color, and grayscale versions. If you click on the "subway art" or "young women clipart" you'll find poster versions in both letter and tabloid sizes, cards, and more.
Please remember that this image may not be used on any item you will sell. I will take legal action against those who violate my terms. Do not tamper with the MormonShare link on the image. You're getting it free, and I deserve credit for my work.
I hope you enjoy this image -- my very first subway art!!!

Professor Edwards to Speak at UNICEF Conference at Georgetown

The theme of the international development conference is Educate, Enlighten, Empower, and Professor Edwards will speak about how human rights non-governmental organizations (NGOs) at the domestic level can be empowered to advocate before inter-governmental organizations (IGOs) such as the United Nations. He will discuss how human rights NGOs can mobilize, under domestic and international law, to further the protection of human rights around the globe.
Professor Edwards also gave a presentation on legal education and LL.M. programs on July 26 at the U.S. Embassy in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (pictured above). The event was sponsored by the Consulates Public Affairs Section and Education USA, a U.S. State Department Affiliate.

I like this ottoman! It is a fairly hard cushion wich is comfortable and will hold up for many years. I normally have to put felt protectors on the bottom of my furniture to protect my wood floors, not with this ottomans built-in protectors. The look of the fabric did surprise me upon arrival, not what I expected but I like it. So be sure to look at examples of ivory linen unless you know more about linen than I do.
I love this ottoman! It's a great quality for a great price. It looks high-end, feels well-made.. and looks great in my living room! It's a perfect size for what I wanted and I love that it has white and black. I love the tufting. Very comfortable too!
I love this ottoman. It was just what I was looking for. We have brown leather couches and I was so tired of so much brown. This piece adds to the room and softens it up a bit. We put a tray on top to out our drinks on because it is being used as a coffee table. I am very pleased with the product!
I have gotten nothing but complements and it added a plush quality to the room. Since my cats and I always put out feet and paws up, it seemed an ottoman was a better solution than a solid top table. It looks twice the price i paid, so I would say go for it if you are on the fence. also like the little drawer-nice touch.
I am very reluctant to purchase furniture online, however the reviews on this item gave me the courage to buy. I'm very happy I did. It arrived quickly and was packaged well. There was minimal assembly (screw on the legs) and it was ready to use. The finish is a smooth dark color and the cushion is very firm. it is exactly what I wanted. Thanks to all those who take the time to write these reviews, it really helps when making a decision.
We are very pleased with this piece! It looks so classy in our living room...the drawer is a great extra - and it opens nicely...doesn't feel cheap. We bought this because our daughter is about to start walking and we wanted a surface that is forgiving. This is perfect. We originally bought something from another site - and sent it back when we saw this. SOOO glad we got this instead. It is the perfect addition to our room!!!
We are an active family and I purchased this to replace an ottoman coffee table that had been completely worn out. I did not want to spend a great deal of money on the purchase at this time and this hit the mark. It came within a few days of ordering and it was packed very well. Assembly was easy and the table is very sturdy. I think it will last us much longer than I thought. For the price, you can't go wrong.
Overall, this ottoman is nice looking and well-made, but one side had damage to the wood in two places. I had to do some sanding, followed by a wood touch-up product. I love the linen fabric and the style of this piece, but arriving with very noticeable damage is the reason I won't rate this ottoman any higher than "Fair."

NEW YORK (AP) — New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg says New York City Marathon has been canceled.
His statement Friday came after mounting criticism that this was not the time for a race.
With people in storm-ravaged areas still shivering without electricity and the death toll in New York City at more than 40, many New Yorkers recoiled at the prospect of police officers being assigned to protect a marathon on Sunday.
Previous coverage:
Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the New York City Marathon will go on despite storm-related objections.
Bloomberg discussed the marathon Friday while giving a briefing on the storm.
He says New York has to show that "we are here and we are going to recover." Bloomberg says the marathon will "give people something to cheer about" after a "dismal week."
Bloomberg has come under fire for pressing ahead with the marathon in a city still reeling from Superstorm Sandy. Some New Yorkers say holding the 26.2-mile race would be insensitive and divert police and other important resources when many are still suffering.
Bloomberg says his predecessor, Rudy Giuliani (joo-lee-AH'-nee), made the right decision to let the marathon continue after the September 2001 terrorist attack.

Economists say that when the economy takes a dive, it is common for people to turn to their inner entrepreneur to try to make their own work. The task of finding a job is daunting and, in turn, encouraging many entrepreneurs to make work for themselves. Even in prosperous times, entrepreneurs have a daunting failure rate. Entrepreneurship in recession is designed to capture best practices for launching a business during a recession.
