For this edition of In Tune, co-hosts Michael Bolton and Maren Montalbano interview one of Philadelphia's favorite baritones, Troy Cook, who stars in the February production of Kevin Puts and Mark Campbell's Pulitzer Prize winning opera, Silent Night. Mr. Cook talks about his role in the opera as Father Palmer, a role he created at the world premiere of the opera and reprises in Philadelphia, and this fascinating and beautiful new work.
The "material girl" at the heart of Abbé Prévost's novella, Manon Lescaut, is one of literature's most charming yet enigmatic heroines. She has inspired no less than 4 operas, 2 ballets, films and more - including Giacomo Puccini's first major success.
In Tune with the Opera Company of Philadelphia, hosted by Michael Bolton and Maren Montalbano, takes a look at Puccini's lush romantic score in preparation for OCP's April 2012 production of the opera.
These performances at the Academy of Music mark the first professional Philadelphia performances of the opera in 25 years and stars 2011 Metropolitan Opera National Council Audition Winner Michelle Johnson, Thiago Arancam, Troy Cook and Daniel Mobbs.

For those who find themselves in the company of poet Gregor Mittenhofer, the results may be as dramatic as the deadly snowstorm that swirls around the mountain inn where they find themselves. Hans Werner Henze, considered to be one of the foremost composers of our time, brings us this powerful and acclaimed opera.
Listen to In Tune with the Opera Company of Philadelphia to find out more this upcoming production, part of OCP's Aurora Series for Chamber Opera at the Perelman Theater. A Philadelphia-area Henze enthusiast takes us through this 1961 masterpiece, reviews the genesis of the opera, and provides a musical guide. This podcast is hosted by OCP's Michael Bolton.

Both operas had their world premiere in November 2011. Podcast hosts Michael Bolton and Maren Montalbano talk with two Philadelphia favorites, soprano Jennifer Check (Almera in Dark Sisters) and baritone Troy Cook (Father Palmer in Silent Night) about these operas and their experience working with the amazingly gifted creators of these operas.
Opera's ultimate temptress opens the season with a sizzle in this classic production that transports you to sultry Seville. The story of a beguiling gypsy who sets her sights on a naïve but passionate young corporal, Carmen traces a tale of seduction, obsession, and deadly betrayal. Bizet's masterpiece features many of opera's most powerful melodies, from the bewitching "Habanera," to the passionate "Seguidilla," and the bravura of the "Toreador" song, capturing the imagination from the first notes of its renowned overture.
Hosted by OCP's Director of Community Programs Michael Bolton, this edition of In Tune with the Opera Company of Philadelphia features interviews with Carmen cast members Rinat Shaham, David Pomeroy and Ailyn Pérez and provides in depth information about the Company's free public HD screen simulcast of Bizet's opera at Independence Mall in the Independence National Historical Park.

Saturday May 29th 2010
We are just about to enter the 'craziest' time of the year, namely 'Fool Week'. This is a relatively new tradition at Muncaster. A competition takes place to decide who will be the current 'Fool of Muncaster', where entrants from all over the world come to enter, and entertain the crowds with madcap capers. This is likely to be the busiest week of the year. I have a confession to make, in that this will be my first time at Fool Week. We will be setting up gazebos at strategic points, to have a presence during this time. I thought of entering 'Mortimer' the Buzzard in the competition, I think she would suit a fool's hat with little bells on it, but I think she would have an unfair advantage, as only 'She' can raise a laugh just by walking on the lawn. She will just have look on from the sidelines.
There's going to be a noteworthy event happening on the 3rd of September, namely a gig; 'Billy Mitchell and Bob Fox', formerly of Lindisfarne and Fairport convention. The tickets are available here - select the World Owl Trust Charity Concert from the "Select the tickets you'd like to buy" drop-down list. It promises to be a good gig. The music will be folk music in the north east tradition.
Round the centre, a lot of the owlets are making their way out of the nests now. This week the Great Grey owlets, the Boobook owlets, and the Western Screech owlets have all made their first public appearances this week. While I am writing this, Terry Evison is trying to get some photos for this blog. The Great Grey owlets in the Main Display can be seen on the webcam at present. The Long-eared owlets in the Laybourne have now dispersed from the nest site, and can be seen perching high up near the Barn Owl boxes, which means they can get off the ground in case of wet weather, which puts our minds at rest.
There has been an 'intriguing' development with our Spectacled owls. They laid eggs, but are by our, by our calculations, well overdue. This week however, the male has started to take food into the nestbox, which is 'interesting'. Keep your fingers crossed, as we haven't bred this species for many years.
I have just spoken to Terry, and it turns out that the Western Screech owlet has gone back into hiding, so I won't be able to show you this particular owlet this week. However, they look very similar to the Tropical Screech owlets which I photographed last week. There is a photo I would Like you to see though, and which illustrates that it is 'Breeding Season' not only for owls, but for the rest of the natural world as well. This photo was sent in by a visitor. I don't know this person's name, but whoever you are, I think you should be proud of this one. It was taken on the steps in the Owl Garden a few weeks ago. Terry also made some pictures of the young Boobook Owls in the Main Display which I will include.

Hi Fran,
My book is currently only available as an ebook. If we eventually decide to get to print, I hope to get in touch with you then! Thank you for your reply. =)
Yes. I received it and replied to the email notification. But that probably went to a noreply site. My reply was that I would see if I can get a printed copy for you. I could send you an attachment with the document, but then you would have to print it out. I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks.

Keeping Upromises
Upromise offers users a service where they can save for college by getting rebates when they buy merchandise from participating retailers. But as the FTC charged in a recent law enforcement settlement, when it comes to consumer privacy and data security, the college savings membership program may want to consider a refresher course.
To participate in Upromise, users downloaded the Upromise TurboSaver Toolbar, designed by a service provider hired by Upromise. Once in place, the Toolbar modified users' browsers to highlight results from Upromise member merchants. According to the FTC's complaint, how the Toolbar's optional "personalized offers" feature worked is where things went wrong.
That feature — which in some cases was the default setting because of a box Upromise pre-checked — modified the Toolbar to provide targeted offers based on a user's online behavior. While Upromise told users that the personalized offers feature collected information "about sites you visit" for the purpose of providing "college savings opportunities tailored to you," the FTC says the company failed to disclose the full extent of what was going on.
According to the complaint, the feature collected a ton of other information, including the names of all sites people visited and which links they clicked on, as well as information they entered on some pages — like search terms, user names, and passwords. What's more, in some cases, Upromise's toolbar collected and transmitted credit card and account numbers, expiration dates and security codes, user names and passwords for access to secure sites, and any Social Security numbers people entered on those pages.
Failing to tell people the full extent of what Upromise collected was a deceptive practice, charged the FTC. The complaint also alleges that Upromise falsely told people their data would be encrypted when it actually was transmitted in clear, readable text.
In addition, according to the FTC, Upromise's claim that it took reasonable security measures to prevent unauthorized access to consumer's data was false. The complaint alleges that Upromise engaged in a number of practices that, taken together, failed to provide reasonable and appropriate security for personal information it collected and maintained. Among other things, Upromise:
- transmitted sensitive information from secure web pages, like financial account numbers and security codes, in clear readable text;
- didn't use readily available, low-cost measures to assess and address the risks to people's information;
- failed to ensure that employees responsible for the information collection program received adequate guidance and training; and
- failed to take adequate steps to ensure that its service provider used reasonable and appropriate measures to protect information.
The complaint also charges that Upromise's failure to use reasonable and appropriate measures to protect consumer information — like credit card and financial account numbers, security codes and expiration dates, and Social Security numbers that consumers entered into other websites — was an unfair practice under the FTC Act. How so? Tools for capturing data in transit — like over unsecured wireless networks at the neighborhood coffee shop or other public places — are commonly available, making it easier for bad guys to intercept clear-text data while it's being sent. That opens the door for misuse, including unauthorized charges and identity theft.

Armenian Council of America on CA Democrats convention
Published: Tuesday February 21, 2012
A delegation of members from the Armenian Council of America (ACA) and Gaidz Youth Organization (GYO) took part in the California Democratic Party Convention held at the San Diego Hilton Bay Front Hotel and San Diego Convention Center on February 10 - 12.
Among the activities at the Convention were various workshops on grassroots organizing, political data presentations, tabling for political office candidates, Caucus meetings and much more. The General Session of the convention featured speeches by Governor Jerry Brown, Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, State Assembly Speaker John Perez, California Democratic Party Chair John Burton, Vice Chair Eric Bauman, and others.
Following the General Session was a meeting and the first election of the California Armenian American Democrats (CAAD), who celebrated their success in achieving full Charter status by the California Democratic Party (CDP), becoming the first Charter organization since the 1950's, and setting the stage for others to follow.
The membership of CAAD, which includes members from ACA and the Armenian National Committee of America (ANC), San Gabriel Valley Armenian Democrats (SGVAD), and Southern California Armenian American Democrats (SCAD), collaborated to protest against the Progressive Caucus' decision to include Armenian Genocide denier and host of the Young Turk TV program, Cenk Uygur, as the keynote speaker on the panel for the Caucus meeting. CAAD submitted a letter to the Chair of the Progressive Caucus highlighting Uygur's track record of genocide denial and urging his removal from the panel.
Although Uygur was allowed to speak, he was given the opportunity to rectify his reputation as a genocide denier before his talk, but failed to address the issue at hand when he referred to his comments on the Armenian Genocide by stating "I understand the tremendous emotional pain of the Armenian community during that historical period," and failing to use the words "genocide" or "Armenian Genocide" during his brief and vague explanation of his past comments. Some protesters walked out during his speech and other protesters stayed at the meeting with their backs turned to Uygur while others confronted him during the general question and answer session.
On Nov. 20, 1991 Uygur wrote a column in the Daily Pennsylvanian titled "Historical Fact or Falsehood?" in which he stated the following: "The claims of an Armenian Genocide are not based on historical facts. If the history of the period is examined it becomes evident that in fact no such genocide took place." In 1999, he submitted an open letter to Salon.com referring to the Armenian Genocide as propaganda. In the letter he states, "I once asked a professor of mine who taught a class on the laws of war and war crimes at Columbia Law School to deprogram me from all the propaganda I had received growing up Turkish. I asked him to please find me evidence of the genocide by neutral scholars so I could know the truth. After investigating the issue, he came back and said that he could not find one non-Armenian scholar who believed this was a genocide, but since "it looked like a duck, it walked like a duck and it talked like a duck, it must be a duck." If that's not the product of excellent propaganda, I don't know what is."
On Sunday, Eric Bauman, Vice Chair of the CDP announced the recommendation for the full ratification of CAAD, by the Organizational Development Committee which was approved by the CDP delegates at large. Bauman expressed his optimistic outlook on the prosperity of the newly formed organization which already boasts well over 500 members from across the Golden State.
The Armenian Council of America is a grassroots organization dedicated to work with political leaders, offering Armenian related news, analysis and resources for policymakers, media, students and activists, advocating issues important to Armenian Americans. The Armenian Council of America aims to strengthen U.S. - Armenia and U.S. - Nagorno Karabakh ties, the development of programs promoting sustainable economic growth and good governance in Armenia, while promoting the values and responsibilities of global citizenship.

Whoever said the intro date was 199? was mistaken, unless it had been retired and re-relased. I was born in 1950 and one of the first fragerances I remember was my grandma wearing Evenin in Paris when she went to church. It was her favorite perfume when she passed away in 1975. What joy to find in 1994 a little blue bullet purse bottle with a gold top and gold tassel! Since it had been in the bottom of my mother's cedar chest all that time it still was usable. Ever so often I will dab a bit on and sniff! It brings such beautiful memories of two wonderful women who touched my life as this fragerance touched theirs!

Evening In Paris was the perfume my mother used. It was in a small dark blue bottle with a silver label and a silver lid. That was many years ago but she let me have a dab sometimes and I always loved the smell. Cant wait to have my own bottle now!

Evening in Paris Perfume, I knew it as Soir de Paris. It was one of the first perfumes that I brought when I started work and as I recall not too expensive. I remembered it in the dark blue bottle, smelt heavenly, not too overpowering. It envoked wonderful memories for me. I not sure if you can still buy it. I only hope that that they haven't messed with the original formula like they have done with other perfumes eg Lumiere (which is also one of my favourites). They should bring it back as it was a nice perfume.

Who We Are
To purchase the Hollywood Theater in Dormont as an independent, non-profit film theater and community center in order to combat community deterioration and serve as a key contributor to the economic vitality of both the neighborhood and the region. The theater will also function as a community resource, which will educate community members in the art of film.
Determined not to lose another single-screen theater, we are a group of community leaders, area residents, and local film lovers banded together in November 2010. The result is the Friends of the Hollywood Theater (FOHT), whose mission is to reopen the theater not only to show movies, but as a community center where the public can enjoy film festivals, concerts, and special events such as big screen viewings of sporting events and the Academy Awards. Reopening the theater will add to the vitality of the Potomac Avenue business district, Dormont, and the region.
The group's 11-member board brings a mix of expertise in business, management, accounting, fundraising, marketing, public relations, and programming. In addition a 22-member advisory board has been formed that includes actors, marketing specialists, local business people, documentarians, film buffs, government officials, preservationists, and historians as well as representatives from Pittsburgh Filmmakers and the ToonSeum.
Our goal:
To partner and work with several local organizations and universities, including Duquesne University,Carnegie Mellon University, 10,000 Friends of Pennsylvania, 48 Hour Film Project, Horror Realm, the ToonSeum, and Keystone Oaks High School.

It's not for everyone, but that's no mark against a sublime take on a genre that's fallen out of fashion. This is easily one of my favorite games of this generation and certainly a top 10 on the Wii.

SUMMARY - Fast paced 2D sidescrolling Japanese style RPG. Hack and slash your way threw this game you will gain experience/level, acquire items and craft swords, etc to make your "assassin" stronger. The game is built around an interesting storyline that unfolds as the game progresses.
This game has the best artwork I have ever seen in a game to date. The game is fast paced and fun. You will be adsorbed by the story and the games true authentic Japanese feel.
Best graphics ever, the art is simply amazing. Lots attention to detail, bright and vibrant colors and the background consist of multiple layers giving it a 3D like effect that I have never seen before, I LOVED THE ARTWORK!!!!
The game has a true Japanese feel to that makes it exciting, you almost feel like your in Japan.
The story is amazing.
The audio and sound effects are equally as good as the art, game play and story.
The game is fast paced.
The game is easy to play so it will be appealing to both new gamers and hardcore gamers.
A small part of the game is cooking food that is used to heal, this process is slow and repetitive. But don't worry you can buy healing potions from a NPC you will eliminate the need for cooking.
The game is a button masher, the only attack buttons are A for main attack, and B for special attacks. I normally hate games that are "BUTTON MASHERS". But, due to this games extremely fast pace, Japanese feel, splendid artwork and interesting story the controls worked.
I was irritated by the jump control setup for the first 15-20 min; to jump you press up on the nunchuck's analog stick. But, after getting use to pressing up to jump it worked flawlessly with this game.

the artwork is ansane, all the backrounds and people are hand painted, the weapons are cool with there abilityes and special attacks are asome. im warning you though, spirit is gained though food, i didn't know that and had weak swords almost the whole game, so just warning you.
the guy and girl's stories are totaly different so it is worth playing though with both sides. the game was fun the fighting system was easy and the bosses werent too hard you just had to get into the rythem of what there going to do if they do this or that and then you will servive. I definitly recomend this game to anybody, ESPECIALY people that like anime or artwork. (you do have to do alot of reading because the game is in japaneas but i didnt mind)
One of the Wiis best titles!!

Also, the combat is much deeper than let on. You can't just mash buttons, you will need to master how to evade, rush, combo, and use things like the sword breaking skill and guarding. It's actually rather deep and enjoyable.
The music is outstanding and I am so happy that they kept the Japanese voices. For a game like this it's the only thing that would have fit.
The thing I felt was most appealing about this game was it's rich reliance on Japanese mythology. It doesn't even try to dumb it down or explain it to you. It just assumes it's common knowledge. Don't know what an Oni or a Kitsune is? Well, better wiki it cause this game isn't going to waste time in explanations. That would be like if an American game or movie took time to explain what a demon or giant is. So, I like how absorbed in the culture the game is.
I highly recommend this title to ANYONE that loves art and especially to those who love 2-d art. Though it's considered a sidescroller I actually think people who enjoy 2-d fighters might be more inclined to this game than people who enjoy sidescrollers. (though I am sure both will love it.)
I plan on buying this game. You should at least rent it.

A Negative. Once you beat all 6 endings there is nothing left for you to do other then travel through Japan slaying Yokai (Monsters), the occasional Ninja or Samurai, and take on bosses you've already beaten. Which is fun, but it can get tiring.
A Positive. The story, both Keisuke's and Momohime's, were amazing, deep and moving yet still not too mushy, and you could understand it through out the game. Sometimes a story can be so confusing you don't really understand it until it's too late to enjoy it. But this one was'nt.
A Negative. No scene replay. You can't go back and revisit your favorite scenes whenever you want. You either have to save before and never progress, or start all over. Which would be no problem if your favorite scene was the begining.
A Positive. The graphics are beutiful, perfect for this type and style of game.
A Neutral. The mini dungeons that you unlock through out the story are nice and fun, but only the hardest ones really get you anything good or decent.
Overall, it's a good game. Definitly one you should at least rent, but only buy it if you really love it. Myself, I am hoping for a sequel.
At the very least, you ought to rent it. 44/50: B+

Weakness(es): the repetitive cooking/eating sequences, and repetitive gameplay (unless you really enjoy the game).
Acquired taste(s): Need to like Japanese-style games (art, music, voices, story, morals, etc.), 2D sidescrollers, and hack in slash games to really enjoy this title.
Replayability: Additional story content, new swords to use, hardest difficulty, hidden secrets for exploration.
Mature Content: Swearing in a foreign language, violence, a few suggest scenes (steaming pool sequences), nothing any teenager can't handle. In other words, the ESRB got the rating right.
Other Note(s):
There are very few Wii games out their for the traditional gamer (post Wii-Sports fans), so if you consider yourself one, this may be a game for you; unless you're a FPS (1st person shooter) fan. In other words, no swinging of the nunchuck or wiimote is required, and you can even use your old gamecube remote to play; or your neighbor's.
Also, when I mention the Japanese-style game taste is needed, I do not label it as a bad thing; the acquired taste of Japanese-Style games just isn't in everyone-yet; BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA... just kidding.
But seriously, if you don't like Ninja Gaiden, the orginal Super Mario (for whatever reason), or any other sidescrolling/hack-n'-slash adventure game I haven't mentioned, you may find this game to get old after the first two or three bosses for either story.

+ Storyline(s) on both characters is done very well.
= It is however odd how I found the boy ninja's story to be noticeably harder. It''s not really a bad thing, it's just kinda weird.
+ The game plays as a Hack and slash RPG and is done beautifuly!
- The game almost feels too simple and to me feels like it should cost $30 & feels like it should be available on the Xbox Live Market Place.
Overall the game is fun and awesome, but personally I would wait for a good sale price.

Samurai's and Ninja's on the Wii done right

Since it's an Action/RPG you'll be hacking and slashing with style to gain experience, soul, and spirit points. Your XP will be for growing levels and raising your stats, but your Spirits and Souls will be used for a different purpose. In your Forge option in your start screen you'll see a very large grid in which you can use your hard earned souls and spirits to purchase stronger swords. If you've played Final Fantasy X it's a bit reminiscent of the sphere grid, so a wrong turn here may mean you'll spend a bit more time grinding to be able to go back and get a sword you may have wanted earlier.
Now because of this ginormous grid and the countless amount of swords within your reach, there is a ton of replayability in the game, since you're going to want to unlock each and every sword. Why do I say that? Well, each character is given 3 separate and different endings to their side of the story. Without spoiling anything for you, you're going to want every sword in the game to get those endings.
Oh, and I have to mention that there are two controller schemes for you to choose from: the Wiimote and Nunchuk (no motion required) or the Gamecube controller. Both are easy to use and similar, but I went for the Gamecube. I don't know why, but prolonged usage of the Nunchuck make my fingers cramp up a bit.
As with the PS3, the Wii is lacking quality titles this year, so Muramasa is a great game to play - with its sheer beauty, fast paced action, and hours upon hours of replayability. Don't pass this one up.

The Age of 2-D Video Games Has Risen
posted by vg2007 (SUGAR LAND, TX) Oct 22, 2009

Muramasa: The Demon Blade has two story arcs where you play either the female kunoichi, Princess Momohime, or the male ninja, Kisuke. Each character has its own deep storyline that at some moments intertwine with each other.
The only flaw with the storyline for each character is that you'll need some basic knowledge of Japanese mythology because most of the characters that appear in the game are based off of some myths and legends in Japanese history.
<Wii Remote>
Press the A button to perform your standard sword blade attacks. And press the B button to unleash your special attack which varies depending which swords you equipped. Press the C button to switch between blades. You can only equip up to three blades at once.
When using blades, each blade has a meter which can allow you to perform special attacks, auto-defend, etc. When your blade's meter runs out, your blade will break. During that moment, switch the broken blade with another one in your arsenal.
Each blade will repair itself and replenish its own meter when it is placed in its sheath.
The main aspect of the game is the HUGE amount of blades you can collect. There are a total of 100 blades you can collect in the game, and some blades can only be unlocked by completing the other story arc.
There are two types of blades: short and long blades.
Short blades are fast and easy to use. But they lack strength and break easily.
Long blades are powerful and last longer but slow to use.
The design of the game is just breathtaking as if you are watching a Japanese oil painting in motion.
Voice acting is top-notch with emotion and devotion.
Muramasa: The Demon Blade is an excellent game for the Wii. Though it is rather short, you will play hours upon hours, making it a must-have for any Wii owner!

If there's anything I could complain about with Muramasa, it's that there's no way to quick travel from one main-map area to another. Other than this relatively minor complaint, however, the game is virtually flawless in terms of mechanics.
If you dig great combat, tough bosses and beautiful 2D visuals, this game is a must-have. The amazing sound effects and authentic Japanese themes only add an extra layer of awesome.
Don't go into this expecting Metroid, however. It's much more straightforward than that, regardless of what you might have read. That being said, it's still a masterpiece in its own right.

Excellent Game

Notable pros of the game:
1.) Beautiful character, boss, and scenery designs.
2.) Addictive gameplay
3.) Each character has their own set of swords which have different special skills. Each character also has bosses unique to their storyline so the gameplay is not identical for each character.
I only have 3 complaints about the game:
1.) The travel time between areas can get tedius sometimes but this is somewhat similar to an RPG where you get experience points and level as you travel. Not my preference though.
2.) The stories are fairly weak and uninteresting for both characters.
3.) After you beat the game you're encouraged to unlock the 2 addition endings for each character (for a total of 4 additional endings). There is absolutely no additional story line added to the game but they give you different ending scenes. All of the ending scenes are pretty uninteresting and not anything someone couldn't predict so you feel cheated having spent the additional time. I probably would have been happier just stopping at beating the game once.
The cons are minor however and aren't enough to ruin the game. Definitely worth picking up.

It was a bit like playing a text adventure cave exploration game. You go from screen (cave) to screen (cave) fighting and/or finding things.
My only complaint was the story was a bit confusing or maybe I didn't pay a lot of attention at the beginning to the story.
Overall a good game.

Story: 7
Feh... Typical Japanese folklore. Nothing really new.
Graphics: 10
The visuals for Muramasa are outstanding. Incredibly detailed and vivid hand drawn environments for a 2-D side scroller and attacks and action scenes are also pretty well illustrated.
Sound: 7
Meh... Depends on your taste really. Nothing wrong with the music or the sound in this game, but there wasn't anything that stayed in my head. If you like Japanese voice acting, I think this game was well done in that aspect.
Control: 10 (Gamecube Controller) Didn't use the Wii Remote
I didn't find anything wrong with it. Both characters control relativly the same and there were no problems.
Gameplay: 7
Okay, here's the bread and butter. Muramasa is a tried and true solid action/hack and slash game. There are plenty of enemies to fight when they are on screen, so you won't get bored mowing them down... in the first couple of hours or so. Then it starts to get repetitive. Boss Battles also turn out to get this way and just scream dodge and attack, though that's the general idea with this kind of game.
There isn't much variety between the new blades that you get as the game progresses either. There are normal Blades that are a bit weaker, but attack faster, and then there are Long Blades that are slower, but stronger. Each blade has it's own unique special attack called "Secret Arts", but some of them aren't really that useful and later blades that you get are usually rehashes of ones that you already have, but you'll need them anyway because they're stronger and you have to be able to keep up with progressively stronger enemies.
All and all, Muramasa is a pretty good action title, but it might not be for everyone. The action is solid, but it can get a little old quick.

A fresh hack and slash
posted by JustBarr (JONESBORO, AR) Aug 4, 2010

Going right into the meat of the game: the gameplay. Different attacks can be performed by holding the control stick in different positions. There's a nice little tutorial at the start which you can ignore because the combat is so fast you won't have a chance to think about planning attacks. Along with your basic attacks you get special attacks that are different for each blade you own. You can equip three blades at once and switch them on the fly.
The combat is fun, and it better be because you'll be doing a lot of it. Which comes to my main gripe of the game: it gets really repetitive really quickly.
Sure the first time six ninjas show up and you tear them to pieces in a few seconds you feel like an awesome samurai. But after doing this 50 times it gets a little bit trite. On the other hand, the game makes every effort to keep things fresh with a wide array of enemies. The bosses especially are epic and strong. Still, it feels like if the game had added more varied weapons and more gameplay modes the game would have really shown.

Good game

-Gorgeous graphics
-Satisfying combat
-Scalable difficulty
-Well-paced, keeps you interested
-That same satisfying combat can get repetitive after a while, since enemies are not all that diverse
-No ability to warp until after you've beaten the game. Travel can be tedious in the meantime.
-Stupid control scheme: "Up" on the thumbstick should never be mapped as "jump". I don't know why developers keep insisting on this control scheme, as it wrecks any precision platforming. Also, controls cannot be customized. Boo.
Some notes: The game is basically divided into two distinct halves; where you play one as a female and the other as a male. They advance separately, and you cna switch between the two at any point, and for the most part their adventures are mutually exclusive. It took me 20 hours to beat one half of the game, I anticipate it will take another 20 to beat the other half.
It's a satisfying button-masher, with some depth to the controls as well. Combos and advanced attacks are combinations of "A" and directions on the thumbstick, with special attacks coming from pressing "B" just once.
Fair warning, once again: "Jump" is performed by pressing "Up", which is inexcusable in any game.
All in all a decent game, still debating whether to "keep" this one.
Good looking Game, too much backtracking

Is that a demon blade in your pocket?

3 out of 4 gamers (75%) found this review helpful
Muramasa includes two stories as you play both Kisuke and Momohime who have various issues revolving around swords and demons. You'll collect blades, forge new ones and level up each character in unique storylines with their own bosses. There are also monster lairs to explore and several rewards, like alternative endings and more powerful weapons, for playing through each story a second and third time. It's quite a lot of content, giving you over 20 hours of play in a side-scrolling action title.
I'm actually glad to see 2D side-scrollers making a comeback and Muramasa makes the most out of the format. The art style looks like a silk painting, the battles have style and the action is fast.
However, problems abound. Combat controls revolve around the A button and the analog stick, which makes pulling off maneuvers tricky as the analog also controls your movement and jumping. Aerial combat is even more cumbersome, making it overly difficult to accurately attack flying enemies. The game relies heavily on random battles which are frequent and repetitive. Your blades will break often, leaving you vulnerable and struggling to switch to another. Unfortunately, switching weapons and pulling off special moves is not instantly responsive. There is far too much backtracking in the game, mostly because there are no warps until the first time you finish the game.
Through all these notable flaws, the game remains easy to pick up and play, entertaining in it's execution and deep enough to hold your interest. It's the kind of throwback title that reminds you why the side-scroller should never go extinct.

Plumsted Township residents can now recycling cooking oil & cooking
grease at the Recycling Center located at 2 Cedar Street. Everyday
cooking oil & grease should not be deposited down the drain, as this

environment. Oil from deep fryers and turkey fryers can now be
taken to the Recycle Center. The center is open on Wednesday from
1-5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. Other recyclables
accepted at the center are electronics, motor oil, auto batteries,

resources during these challenging economic times,
stated Wysong.

Agony, Tradition, Hope.

It's been hard to deal with, but in a contest of wills, the Bruins won. Now it's time for the Canucks, and their fans to look forwards.
(Photo by Harry How/Getty Images)
Canucks fans tend to be pretty emotional, and I'm no different. It shouldn't come as a huge surprise then, that I haven't written a single word on the Canucks since last Wednesday's game 7 pantsing, and the thoroughly embarrassing riot that followed. It has been a rough week.
I watched Monday's game 6 at a bar, and within minutes regretted it. It's tough to be in public when the Canucks get blown-out, and the game 6 loss left me particularly dejected. Not even good company, delicious wings and ribs were enough to cheer me up.
I spent Tuesday in a fatalistic stupor, and though I managed to work up a certain false arrogance for Wednesday, I had a premonition of what was to come. I watched the game at home, I wasn't going to spend another night moping in a bar. Even before the first goal was scored, the game was agony.
To twist what Pat Riley said about the Heat-Mavs NBA Finals series recently – it's hip and popular to say that the Canucks choked, but really the Bruins went out and took the cup. Lets give credit where it's due: the Bruins dominated those last two games. Tim Thomas clearly got good value for his soul – because that old man was unbeatable. In game 7, the Bruins simply wanted it more and played a great game to ensure their Cup victory.
Decisions, Decisions.

The Canucks have some tough decisions to make, none more difficult than what to do with Roberto Luongo.
(Photo by Harry How/Getty Images)
This is a fan-post written by Malcolm Ert.
I still can't believe what happened on Wednesday night. Like a lot of you, I was so sure the whole year that the Canucks were destined to win it all. I think Bieksa said it best "I don't think you ever get over a SCF game 7 loss." I once lost a winner takes all championship game like this one, obviously, it was high-school sports so it's not even remotely on the same level – but I do know it hurts and that you never get over it. But there is nothing we, or anyone else, can do about it now - I know I did everything thing i could at game 5 as a fan, so on to the next one...
The one thing the 11/12 Nucks will have the 10/11 team didn't is the taste of the finals. The desire to get back might have been absent had the team drunk from the cup. So yes, i will once again be put money on our boys in Vegas. The core will want this badly now, more so than before. However, Gillis and company do need to make some tweaks. Sure, I would take the exact roster again next year, but in a capped world – that's not really an option. Changes are coming.

How does the saying go? A day late and a dollar short. Well the Vancouver Canucks were 1 win late and about 20 goals short.
And the off season now begins with nothing to show for it but 15 playoffs wins and a city on the mend, both physically and mentally.

Marketers on MLK Day: 'I Have a…Really Bad Idea!'
Oh…hell to the no!
With respect to Dr. King, "I have a dream…that someday marketers that do this repugnant #$%! will lose a job, the ability to operate photoshop and possibly conscience just for a week or two." Just let that galling picture sink in. That's "Freedom 2 Twerk" and Dr. Martin Luther King throwing up some inane thug sign promoting said event. And then there's that bling.
The hell?! On what planet in some distant twerkiverse is this crap a good idea?
Martin Luther King fought the most valiant fight against racial oppression and for civil rights in the 1960s. No link is needed because if you don't know about what this day means to so many people, then you need to get your narrow behind in a library today. (You know, if they were open.)
However, now that the war is won, battles continue to rage in a court of retail? Why, just why?
