Surprisingly few racing games are big on offline multiplayer these days, except for ones that end in the word 'Kart'. So imagine our surprise when Evolution Studios announced that MotorStorm Apocalypse would not only allow online play, but four-player split-screen too. So the UK GamesRadar team huddled around the TV to put this split-screen action to the test - and you can watch the results here.
Connecting up controllers is simple enough, although everybody has to be signed is as a separate user in the XMB. This is presumably to keep track of everyone's stats and award trophies, but it also means everyone can go online with their PSN accounts in split-screen too. Yep, the game boasts split-screen online play so you can "mix and match" your competitors between those sat next to you and those halfway around the world.
But you want to know how well that split-screen runs, right? Here's a video of some races we had in the office:
The game runs surprisingly well from a technical point of view. Not only are all the environmental hazards and pedestrians present that are found in the single-player game, the split-screen is borderless in 4-player (though it does have borders in 2-player mode, bizarrely.) The frame-rate takes a hit in busy scenes, but for the most part, it's impressively detailed and smooth, with only slight draw-in.
There are three modes too, with chase and elimination supplementing the usual 'race' option. The complex nature of the track design did make us lose our way a couple of times, but having spent hours and hours in the single player game this week, I was able to play identically to the way I would with a full screen at my disposal.
I was able to have many online races with the team at Evolution Studios and I have to say, the game really comes alive when you're in a packed online game. There are the usual straight races as you'd expect, but I spent most of my time in the 'perks and betting' mode.
The game gives you a choice of two tracks before you play, and the players in the lobby vote for the one they want to race on. It keeps things moving along and each stage of the pre-match process is on a short timer so indecisive players can't hold up the game.
Above: Before races, you get to choose your own perks, which will help give you an advantage during play
The perks are saved in selectable trios, called 'Loadouts'. You can tinker with these before you go online, to make sure you have your favourite combinations ready to go. Perks range from simply giving you more grip to letting you super-cool your boost mid-air while still accelerating. New perks can be gained as you move up through the ranks. And to that, you'll need to earn chips.
Chips are your online currency, and are earned by fulfilling set criteria. Obviously, beating as many opponents as possible is the simplest, but you also earn chips for wrecking other cars and betting againt other players. In fact, the betting system works particularly well - you can nominate one rival in each race. Beat them and you get a bounty in chips. You can then either bank them, or bet them again in the next race.
Above: I bet on the top player, natch. Seeing a rival's PSN ID poking from a smoking wreck is awesome
Consecutive wins will earn you a pretty penny but, similarly, you'll have a lot more to lose if you bet on someone and lose to them. Everyone has their own 'chip rank', with the rewards for beating them tiered accordingly. It works really well and gives online races an even more personal touch, no matter whether you actually know the people playing or not.
Above: We were only playing against Evolution staff and fellow journos, but expect massive 16-player races
Racing in a tightly-fought match against a large grid of real people is the best way to play MotorStorm Apocalypse - full stop. You get all of the single-player game's destruction and visual effects, but you also get rivalry that means something - especially when you have a couple of thousand chips riding on the outcome. Even in four-player mode, the split-screen graphics are surprisingly close to the single-player experience and while the four detailed screens do slow down in places, it's way better than we expected.
Four-player splits are rare for a reason - but after playing this, we now expect it from every racer in the future. No excuses.
Above: Mix and match local and online. Every racing game should have the option

text: Newey committed to Red Bull and relishing the challenges of V6 turbo era 1 November, 2013 Adrian Newey with Christian Horner on the Red Bull pit gantry Adrian Newey, Red Bull's multi-championship winning designer and technical director, has declared that he intends to stay and guide Sebastian Vettel's team to yet more glory. The architect of the Milton Keynes team's four-year run of success in both the Drivers' and Constructors' Championships said that he wants to stay – because he enjoys his job so much. His pronouncement late on Wednesday came as a major blow to rival teams hoping to lure him away from Red Bull. Newey said: "Having achieved some success over the last few years, the enjoyment is really in working with my colleagues in Milton Keynes and in continuing to develop the way we operate. "It has been a great ride. Next year is a huge challenge with the regulation changes so at the moment I'm fully focused on that." Adrian Newey the man behind Sebastian Vettel's remarkable success on the podium in India Newey stressed that he is committed to winning more Formula 1 world championships with Red Bull after the team racked up its fourth consecutive title double. He added: "Yes. The joy of working with this team is to have been involved in taking it from the ashes of Jaguar to where we are today." Looking ahead to 2014, he said the regulation changes would be challenging for everyone. "Next year's regulation changes are very big. The aerodynamic changes are not quite as big as we had for 2009, but they are still very significant. "The engine regulation changes are massive and it's not at all clear whether one engine manufacturer will steal a significant advantage over the other two. "Reliability will be a big issue, certainly at the start of the season, if not for the whole season. "The installation of the engine in the chassis is very complicated, so there are a lot of variables." (AFP) Subbed by AJN.

Dear anyone who knows and is kind enough to spend a moment sharing:
I am currently on the "gluten challenge" to reintroduce enough gluten into my daily diet to make my small intestine and blood show signs of celiac (if I have it) so that I will know if that is the cause of my symptoms. My doctor ran the Prometheus Lab test to see if I have the DNA that makes it likely I have celiac.
1) Below are the results. Can you help me understand what they mean and how likely it is that I could have celiac?
2) How likely is it that my family has it?
Alleles Detected: HLA allelic variants associated with celiac disease detected.
DQ8 heterozygous
Any help and shared thoughts are welcome!

Working Class Hussys Play The Bitter End Tonight
Working Class Hussys will bring their unique style of Americana infused alternative rock to The Bitter End in New York City to celebrate the release of their new album Diesel Tunes. Written by prolific songwriter and lead singer Ian Patrick Gentles, the songs on Diesel Tunes cover a wide emotional and musical spectrum. The album displays the unique vision of a band who has taken their musical influences (alternative rock, classic 70's and southern rock) and created a sound all their own. The concert will take place tonight, July 26th at 10 pm. Admission is $10.00 at the door. The Bitter End is located at 147 Bleecker Street in New York City.
The tracks on Diesel Tunes were inspired by Ian Patrick Gentles' twelve years of staring at the open road ahead as a truck driver. With catchy and radio friendly tunes, such as To Tennessee and the pre-release favorite Goin' For A Ride, the songs on Diesel Tunesexplore life on the open road.
Diesel Tunes will be available on Amazon.com and iTunes on July 18, 2014.
To listen to music visit: http://workingclasshussys.com/music/
Working Class Hussys is an eight member ensemble whose current vision is to bring the sound of three part vocal harmonies together with Ian's strong lead vocal in a rock band setting. Two dueling lead guitars decorate the sound with recognizably rock emphasis. All that combined with a strong rhythm section give the band a unique and powerful "wall of sound." The band features Ian Patrick Gentles (lead singer, acoustic rhythm guitar), Anthony Mann (drums), Brian Casale (electric bass), Mike McClellan (lead guitar), Gregory Winka (lead guitar) and vocalists Patti Lynn, Amanda During and Ann Shi.
Ian Patrick Gentles is a singer/songwriter who after fronting several bands across the country, has settled down in central New Jersey. He built a home studio and recorded several hundred original songs. This is where he created the idea of Working Class Hussys and how he would bring his music and vision to the world. His songwriting takes influences from many genres ranging from rock, blues, folk, country, pop and even Broadway show tunes. Working Class Hussys have played festivals and venues in New York City, Philadelphia and New Jersey. Their songs have been played on FM and worldwide internet radio, including their track "Goin' For A Ride" from Diesel Tunes.

The Cowichan Sportsplex is asking for our assistance. On Nov 15th during the Municipal elections some areas are being asked to provide stable funding to the Sportsplex. In an effort to get the word out they are asking various sports groups to help by handing out flyers. They are looking for some parents, coaches and players (in uniform) to work at the display booth in front of Country Grocer in Cobble Hill Oct. 25th & Nov. 1st from 1-4:30 p.m, or a portion of this time. All that is required is for flyers to be handed out and possibly popcorn if it is nice out.

US National Archives Has Blocked Searches for 'WikiLeaks'
|By: Kevin Gosztola Saturday November 3, 2012 10:00 am
Searches for "WikiLeaks" in the public search engine for the US National Archives have been blocked, according to a posting at Cryptome.org. Any search containing the word "WikiLeaks (like "Congress" and "WikiLeaks") turns up an error message.
WikiLeaks reacted on Twitter, "The US National Archives has literally turned into Orwell's Ministry of Truth." In another more vivid message, "The US state is literally eating its own brain by censoring its own collective memories about WikiLeaks." And, in another message, "The US National Archives censoring searches for its records containing the word 'WikiLeaks' is absolutely absurd."

The Library of Congress (LOC) and the National Library of Australia (NLA) have, in the past week, reviewed their categorization for WikiLeaks books that were on file. A bottom-up movement of WikiLeaks supporters and writers on Twitter going back and forth on how WikiLeaks books were being categorized led the LOC and NLA to mount this review. And, reviews by the LOC and NLA led to a change in categorization, meaning no longer will WikiLeaks books be categorized under the subject header "Extremist Websites."

Weekly Standard on Ron Paul's newsletter, via Goddard:
The Weekly Standard notes it's these writings and Paul's "decades-long promotion of bigotry and conspiracy theories, for which he has yet to account fully, and his continuing espousal of extremist views, that should make him unwelcome at any respectable forum."
Now remember that the two top Republican candidates are a guy who believes and continually states that Obama went on an apology tour and a guy who has called the president an Affirmative Action President and a Kenyan anti-colonialist. Clearly, believing conspiracy theories and racial bigotry aren't much of a disqualifier for GOP candidates. Admittedly, Ron Paul's newsletter went far beyond those, and they're hardly all behind him, especially on economic matters (remember the lurking threat of Ameros?). I say, let's just be frank about this.
Do you think President Obama should make any recess appointments over the Winter Break? Do you think he will?
I definitely think he should. Obama seemed pretty steamed about Repubs not giving Richard Cordray a vote to be the Consumer Financial Protection Chair, and it would make sense for him to recess appoint Cordray to the job since it's not like they're going to accept anyone else. Might as well give it to his choice, right? Obama should also recess-appoint three new National Labor Relations Board members, and maybe even a circuit judge or two for good measure (the unfairly-rejected Caitlin Halligan comes to mind). I fully expect doing this would absolutely enrage Senate Republicans, possibly leading them to try to shutdown the Senate altogether as they frequently threaten to do. But I do not see this as a bad thing, since it would force Democrats to finally bite the bullet and go nuclear on them. I doubt even the staunchest "traditionalists" in the Senate could stomach a tantrum of that magnitude. And I tend to think that Republicans might be wary to take that step because I think it would play very poorly, politically speaking, and losing the filibuster altogether would really hamper their strategy, both short- and long-term. They use it much more than Democrats, after all. Which would at least leave us with a few key posts staffed, and let Democrats know he's done being pushed around.
But it's exactly for this reason that I tend to think Obama will not make these appointments. I'm not 100% sure he won't do it–he seemed really angry about the Cordray nomination–but I figure it's probably about 80%. I mean, the past 12 months have seen Obama treating a full-on confrontation with Republicans as an absolute worst case scenario, perhaps even a catastrophic one to them, one that is worth taking enormous polling hits and accepting terrible budget deals to avoid. Obama's team hasn't exactly been coy about their lusty pursuit of independents for 2012, and I can understand how they figure that initiating partisan brawls would make that pursuit difficult (assuming that those voters ever hear about it). But the results of Obama's 2011 strategy haven't been good for the country or for Obama, who didn't conduct himself this way during either his presidential run or his first two years in office. To me, taking on highly unpopular Congressional Republicans makes a lot of sense, and the likelihood is that this confrontation will either be viewed by the public as boring process/insider baseball stuff, or as Congress not working, either of which I don't see as hurting Obama in the long run. I wish I felt he saw it the same way, but I'm not all that confident of that. I guess we'll find out. But that's my prediction.
Charlie Stross presents a possible broader context for the National Defense Authorization Act and SOPA:
1. The USA is already a functional oligarchy. (Or, more accurately, a plutarchy.) It has been functioning as such for some time — since 1992 at the latest, although the roots of this system go back to before the Declaration of Independence — it's a recurrent failure mode. Historically such periods last for a few years then go into reverse. However, this time the trend has been running since 1980 or even earlier. What we're now seeing are the effects of mismanagement by the second generation of oligarchs in power; the self-entitled who were born to it and assume it to be the natural order of things.
2. It's impossible to be elected to high office without so much money that anyone in high office is, by definition, part of the 0.1%; even if they're an outsider to start with, they will be co-opted by the system (or neutralized — usually before they are elected).
3. Public austerity is a great cover for the expropriation of wealth by the rich (by using their accumulated capital to go on acquisition sprees for assets being sold off for cents on the dollar by the near-bankrupt state). But public austerity is a huge brake on economic growth because it undermines demand by impoverishing consumers. Consequently, we're in for another long depression. (The outcome of this new long depression will be the same as that of the first one: the main industrial power — then it was the UK; now it's the USA — will lose a lot of its remaining economic lead over its competitors and be severely weakened.)
4. Starving poor people with guns and nothing to lose scare the rich; their presence in large numbers is one major component of a pre-revolutionary situation.
5. Worse, the poor have smartphones. (Or will, within another couple of years. By 2020, today's iPhone 4S will be a cereal-packet-freebie grade toy. $10 for an equally powerful device, sold on a pre-pay tariff, via WalMart.) Which means a former constraint on civil unrest (media channels are expensive to run, so the oligarchy can maintain an effective choke-hold on mass media while trumpeting their support for freedom of speech) no longer holds true. See also the "Twitter revolution" (RIP) in Iran.
6. The oligarchs are therefore pre-empting the pre-revolutionary situation by militarizing the police (as guard labour). Note also that the prison-industrial complex remains profitable as long as there's a tax base on which to pay for the prison guards — or to use as collateral for loans to cover the guards' wages.
7. Modern communications technologies (including the internet) provide people with a limitless channel for self-expression (not to mention distraction— endless circuses without the bread). They also provide the police state with a limitless flow of intelligence about the people. Note also that it's possible to not merely listen in on mobile phone calls, but to use a mobile phone as a GPS-aware bugging device, and (with a bit more smarts) to have it report on physical proximity (within bluetooth range — about 20 feet) to other suspects. The flip side of social networking is that the police state knows all your acquaintances.
8. So I infer that the purpose of SOPA is to close the loop, and allow the oligarchy to shut down hostile coordinating sites as and when the anticipated revolution kicks off. Piracy/copyright is a distraction — those folks pointing to similarities to Iranian/Chinese net censorship regimes are correct, but they're not focussing on the real implication (which is a ham-fisted desire to be able to shut down large chunks of the internet at will, if and when it becomes expedient to do so).
What bothers me is that this is very plausible, and if Mr. Stross sees fit to make a novel based on these ideas I'll be the first one to buy it. But I think there's one small fact that undermines it: this presupposes that the oligarchs (a) actually realize how bad things have gotten for everyone that isn't them, and (b) are capable of planning ahead to deal with it. The latter, especially, is hard to take when talking about the crew that crashed the economy three years ago. Though I could be wrong on that.
What do you think?
If you asked me for one reason why mainstream conservatives shouldn't be trusted with foreign policy, my basic response would probably be that most of them never got over the Cold War ending, and are desperate to either reignite it with Russia or find a substitute in "Islamofascism," which by the way is one of the dumbest words ever created and needs to be retired*. Daniel Larison's blog frequently flags this rhetoric, and it is just endless from these guys. The sheer quantity of it just shows how much pent-up mistrust and hatred is still out there for Russia 21 years after the end of the Cold War. Admittedly, Russia should be treated with caution and skepticism, but it hasn't ever attacked us or even looked interested in doing so. To spend more than a second worrying about its threat to us seems excessive to me unless something changes. But that's not how it is among conservative elites. Larison catches Krauthammer contradicting himself by trying to push two separate Russophobic lines of reasoning simultaneously, and says:
As ever, what annoys Krauthammer is not that the "reset" has failed, but that it has been a successful policy that isn't likely to be abandoned unless there is a change of party in our government.
Something to think about. If you listen to the GOP candidates, one cold war isn't nearly enough for them. Me, I'm still fuming over Obama's cave on the NDAA and various foreign policy/national security letdowns. But when you consider that Republican behavior consists of needless antagonism of countries that don't threaten us because most of their base still thinks that showing one sign of weakness to Russia will lead to Red Dawn, and much of their elites basically agree, well it's pretty much all there is to it.
* Right? I mean, how can they at once be trying to re-establish a pan-Islamic Caliphate while also worshiping their individual nation-states? I'm no sympathizer of al-Qaeda, but a near-anarchist, stateless group of thugs and murderers doesn't bear the slightest bit of resemblance to an organized political movement. It's an insult to Fascism, honestly, though that doesn't exactly break my heart.
Next target: France.
Admittedly, the present Euro situation doesn't exactly inspire much hope. But these ratings are relative, right? AAA means it's a good place to park your money relative to the other options, yes? Has France's position relative to the rest of Europe changed? And, if the Euro breaks up, will France have to default? I haven't heard anyone even suggest this.
Basically, I don't trust these ratings agencies at all, so I don't get it.
WTF: Wyden's Entire Pre-Senate Career Was Spent Advocating FOR Seniors!
I'm from Oregon and I remember when Ron Wyden was elected to the Senate. At the time I scratched my head and asked, "Who the fuck is this sweaty, lisping drip running for Senate?" I remember discovering that he was a big advocate for the elderly through his entire career. Here's Wikipedia:
While teaching gerontology [ed. note !!!] at several Oregon universities, Wyden founded the Oregon chapter of the Gray Panthers; he led that organization from 1974 to 1980. Wyden is also the former director of the Oregon Legal Services Center for Elderly, a nonprofit law service.
Fast forward to today and this fact has got to make your head explode when you ponder why he has now so cavalierly decided to sell our country's future elderly into a system that no longer guarantees coverage for their medical treatments.
[I just mentioned this on Lev's earlier post, but I thought it bore repeating.]

Last night at the Dallas Center for Architecture, I moderated a panel that discussed the relationship between Fair Park and South Dallas, and how Fair Park's design and use impact the surrounding neighborhoods. The panel members included Rev. Gerald Britt, Robert Foster,Patrick Kennedy, Hank Lawson, and Vicki Meek, and the conversation brought a number of issues to light regarding the history and use of the park and the ongoing difficulties that face redevelopment there. I wanted to pull out a few takeaways, as well as put forth a few ideas to keep the conversation going. If you're interested in your city, head on over to FrontBurner.

Other Ambient (and related) Music / Re: Limited Edition pre-orders: love 'em or hate 'em?« on: November 27, 2012, 07:23:20 AM »
@Julio Di Benedetto @mgriffin Also, if you're the kind of artist who can quickly sell 200-300 discs, why not do pressed CDs instead of CDRs?
If the label won't press a CD and will only do a CDR, the artist doesn't have much choice. It's the labels' decision. My way or the highway sortof approach. It's tough enough just finding labels to release something period.
Hi Will.....I realize you are at the mercy so to speak of the label, but does there come a point where you take control yourself when the labels release standards are not what you want. I don't intend to make this sound egotistical because label interest in an artist is a beautiful thing regardless of the end product. The financial & PR responsibility of doing it yourself become much greater, and I can see this would be a deterrent. Mind you I can't say how each label works regarding who pays for production cost etc......so? A Celer release is exciting for itself not because of the label that releases it. IF you choose to release a limited edition rubber stamped Verbatim CDR, your listers will buy it because of the music not the packaging which was a point well made by APK.

Asia Pacific Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition
After gliding unscathed through the global financial crisis, Asia Pacific has become the world's largest regional travel market. In like fashion, China eclipsed Japan in 2012 as the highest-grossing market in the region. Assuming a stable macroeconomic future, APAC will continue its healthy upward trajectory in the next several years – but sudden, unpredictable currency fluctuations hold the potential to change that fate, especially in rapidly growing markets like India and Indonesia. Asia Pacific Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition provides sizing and projections for the region's total and online leisure/unmanaged business travel markets from 2011-2015, including analysis by segment and country market. For the first time, the report also sizes mobile travel in three major markets: China, Japan and India.

China Consumer Travel Report
In some respects, China's travel market is not as well developed as many Western markets. Yet with twice as many travelers as the U.S. and a new breed of consumer that is ready, willing and able to get out and see the world, China represents a rather large and unique opportunity. Phocuswright's China Consumer Travel Report provides a comprehensive profile of Chinese travelers' attitudes and behavior throughout the travel lifecycle. Key metrics include frequency and duration of trips (both domestic and international), travel spend and travel component purchases, and the impact of social media and the emerging mobile platform on travel-related activities.

European Consumer Travel Report Fourth Edition
After years in the doldrums, the European economy is finally beginning to show signs of recovery. Millions who skipped out on vacations in 2011 and 2012 returned to the traveler pool in 2013, and consumers have a renewed sense of confidence. Phocuswright's European Consumer Travel Report Fourth Edition provides a close look at traveler behavior across three core European markets – France, Germany and the U.K. – which together represent close to 60% of Europe's total leisure and unmanaged business gross bookings. The study includes a comprehensive range of travel metrics, including leisure travel incidence, trip frequency and duration, travel expenditure, the use of online and offline channels, travel-related engagement via the mobile web and social networks, and more.

China Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition
China's travel market has reached a new stage of maturity, and now must face the uncertainties that come along with greater development – slower growth, higher expectations from consumers and investors, and the imperative to expand the country's travel infrastructure fast enough to keep up with demand. Still, China remains a major growth market. Online travel options are increasing by the day, and competition among suppliers and intermediaries is hotter than ever. China Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition presents market sizing and projections for the total and online leisure and unmanaged business travel markets in China from 2011-2015.

European Market Spotlight: Navigating Switzerland's Travel Market Complexities
Despite the unrelenting economic turmoil rocking much of Europe, Switzerland's travel market remains strong. A buoyant economy, exceptionally low unemployment, and a high standard of living have helped sustain the country's travel bookings. This spotlight presents key findings from Phocuswright's research on Switzerland's total and online travel markets from 2010 to 2014.

India Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition: Rail and Hotel Steal the Spotlight
While India breezed through the global financial crisis of 2009, the country's economy – along with its travel market – buckled to global economic pressures in 2012. The rupee dropped in value, hotels took a hit, and airlines – the market's biggest segment – face ongoing industry woes. Despite weak market dynamics, however, India's travel market remains resilient and will not take long to regain full steam. Total travel gross bookings in 2012 experienced healthy growth on a local currency basis, and the explosive increases expected for online hotel and rail bookings in the next three years are nothing short of incredible.

European Managed Travel Distribution: Market Sizing and Trends
The combination of economic challenges, generational shift and rapidly advancing technology has created both challenges and opportunities in Europe's corporate travel marketplace. More than ever, European companies have cast a watchful eye over spending in general, and their travel programs in particular. At the same time, younger, tech-savvy corporate travelers are promoting more flexible and often more efficient ways to purchase, track and manage their trips. This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the European managed corporate travel marketplace, including sizing and key trends impacting the industry.

U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition
While the U.S. economy showed clear signs of recovery in 2012, there were enough mixed signals to make vacation decisions difficult for many Americans. Through a longitudinal analysis, Phocuswright's U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition examines traveler behavior along each step of the travel planning process - from the media travelers rely on to make destination and product decisions, to the channels they use to book and share their trip experiences. Key metrics include frequency and duration of trips, travel expenditure and travel component purchases, and travel intentions for the coming year.

Just pointed a finger at someone. My other 4 fingers were pointing not at me, but at my palm. Tch. Have to reevaluate my entire moral system
Dear Congress & BJP, If your only defence is to question the motives of the accuser, I'm going to assume that the charges are true.
Hehe. Or, as @Bhuvana77 suggests, Sun TV can call the team Deccan Solar Chargers.
Sun TV Network wins Hyderabad IPL franchise for 85.05 crores per year. Dayanidhi Maran can rename the team Deccan Chargesheeters? No? Okay.
Testing. Pl ignore.
MuKa: Deccan Chargers-ukku bid a? Oru kilo paccha arisi offer pannu. | Rajiv Shukla: Kya bola? Pachaasi. Okay okay. | SUN buys DC for 85cr.
What happened to this week's episode of Kejriwal?
So, Deccan Chargers moves from Reddy to Sun. The announcement should have been made in Hotel Radisson. #SelfThoo

The heart of Milan, the Duomo is Europe's biggest Gothic cathedral and the third largest church in Christendom, adorned by 3,500 statues and 135 soaring spires. The magnificent sculptural detail can be seen from the roof, and on a clear day there are stupendous views as far as the snow-peaked Alps.
