My top 10 games of 2011 (FINALLY!)
on 04.13.2012
Holy shit this is late. Its the middle of fucking April. I thought it was bad last year when I posted my list mid-February. But Im committed to finishing up with all the 2011 games I want to play before doing this. And with games like Skyrim literally taking up more than 3 months of my gaming time, you can surely understand my tardiness. I still never did get around to some of the games I was interested in like Catherine, El Shaddai, or Fishing Resort, let alone acclaimed games I was less enthused about like Deus Ex or Arkham City. But gosh. It was a good year for video games.
The list!
10. Kirby: Mass Attack
This is one of the best Kirby games Ive played. I loved the original Kirbys Adventure on the NES its probably my favourite NES game (having never played on an actual NES, but on Virtual Console, etc.) but now what makes the Kirby series special is the uniqueness of each game. The best Kirby games these days are the ones that use the unique features of the platform its on to create a platforming game unlike any other ever made. Somehow now, even at the end of the DS lifespan, another Kirby game has come along with a totally fresh take on the touchscreen controls of Nintendos 7-year old handheld. Thats brilliant. And its as fun and complete a Kirby experience as Ive ever played.
9. L.A. Noire
I had totally forgotten this game came out in 2011 until I was going through my list of games I bought over the year. Is it just me or was it forgotten about by mostly everyone at GOTY awards time? Its such an obvious choice for one of my top 10 of the year. Rockstar are the best at making open-world games that feel like living, breathing places, and I love that they took their talents to new settings with this and Red Dead Redemption, also tackling two of my favourite film genres that are barely represented in video games: the western and the film noir. Surveying the crime scene and questioning people also made for a really fun, really unique gameplay mechanic. Of course if you switch those last two sentences as necessary to the speculative future tense, youll have exactly what I was saying about L.A. Noire in the months leading up to its release. So basically, it just completely lived up to my expectations. The story was also quite well written and engaging. And the restrictiveness of the open-world was unexpected but bold, I thought; commendable. It was not as fun or great a game as Red Dead Redemption, but it was damn fine.
8. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D
It made me so happy to be playing this game again! Sure as, basically, a port, this game probably shouldnt be allowed on this list, but screw it, this was one of my greatest gaming experiences of the year. The N64 Zelda games are two of my favourite games of all time, even though I never finished them, and they have a certain quality to their music and visuals, their mood as it were, that evokes a frightening sense of nostalgia that no other games can even come close to. For years after abandoning those games I would be scared to return to them, and even get freaked out if I saw someone else playing them. My Hyrule was still haunted by ghosts and re-deads. My Hero of Time had failed in his quest. In the weeks leading up to the launch of the Wii, I finally revisited Majoras Mask, but did not finish it in time and I havent really had a chance to since then. Ocarina of Time 3D was the perfect excuse to revisit that game and finally finish it. I did. Thats monumental. And Im happy to say that nothing of the games mood was lost in the translation to the 3DS. Hyrule is safe.
7. Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
Well if Ocarina of Time 3D is allowed, I guess this oughtta be allowed. I bought this collection like two weeks ago, solely for Metal Gear Solid 3, and thats the only game in this collection that Ive checked out. But I love it. My initial experience with it was not great the first two hours had basically a half hour of gameplay and the controls were baffling to me. The rest of those two hours was endless codex messages and cutscenes. I started the game over again after like 3 hours (very little while skipping cutscenes) on the normal difficulty because I didnt like how I could get shot at for a while on easy difficulty and it didnt matter if I wasnt being smart. I played Metal Gear Solid 4 a few years ago and I dont think that I understood even a fraction of the features and intricacies of the game, while playing it on easy. Now, I was determined, and I looked online to see how to do all Snakes CQC moves, and to see how other people were playing those first couple levels, and then finally, I started to get into it. As I got used to the controls and the features of the game, I actually became addicted to it. And holy crap the bosses in this game are awesome. They have so much personality and are so over the top that they reminded me of No More Heroes. But theyre so much more elaborate and varied in terms of how to defeat them. The End is a contender for the best boss fight Ive ever played. Jesus. Im eight years late here. I want to talk to people about how great that was. It lasted an hour and it was so intense and I found myself using features I never imagined, like at the end I saw him run by and I used my binoculars to follow his footprints to see exactly which direction he went and so I found him again real quick. Id tried to follow his footprints earlier but it started to rain and the rain washed them away. Seriously. Its not a perfect game. Sometimes it felt
intense for me. I like somewhat more laid back games hence playing games on easy. But thats not really a complaint. Sometimes I felt there wasnt really a great way to approach a situation besides running and hiding under something and waiting for my alert status to go away. Sometimes Id go and brush my teeth or something while I was waiting. Thats dumb. But really its a fantastic game. And there are so many cool things you can do. I threw a rabbit at someone. It didnt do anything but I was ecstatic that I got to do it. And disguising myself as a scientist and blowing knockout gas into peoples faces from my cigarette was amazing. I also loved sneaking behind people, grabbing them, and making them tell me something along the lines of vultures eat dead bodies, and then slitting their throats. I also had no idea that you could push the face buttons on the controller soft or hard. How long has that been a feature?! Anyway, I must say, of all the HD-updated games, this is easily the most natural, best-looking one Ive played. And I even started to get into the story a bit, though I was often confused. I was reading Destructoids review of MGS4, about how perfect a conclusion to the story it is if youve been following the story since the PS1 era (and presumably replaying them enough over the years to remember their stories clearly). If you own a PS3, now, there is no better time to get into Metal Gear Solid, with 1 on PSN, 2 and 3 in the collection, and 4 available for no more than $20. Play them in order, back to back. It would take way less than half of the amount of time I devoted to Skyrim and it would be great. I fucked up by playing 4 first, and then 3. Now I dont know if Ill ever bother with 1 and 2. But if youre starting fresh: do it! I can tell from 3 that the series is worth it.
6. Portal 2
Portal 2 isnt perfect the way Portal is. The song at the end wasnt as memorable, nor really the story in general. I think they kind of ruined GLaDOS character a bit by making her all passive aggressive and not funny. But they also made her a potato, which was pretty awesome. And the new characters Wheatley in particular were hilarious and amazing so that makes up for it. And there was one totally mind-blowingly incredible moment at the ending of the final boss fight. But forget all that. The puzzles were fun as hell. The new elements they added like the different gels and what-have-you were brilliant and the degree to which the game stayed fresh and polished and fun over its quite decent length is fantastic. And then theres co-op. I played it locally with a friend over 2 sittings and playing that much at a time nearly broke our brains. I remember one level at which point my friend had given up thinking (so I was on my own on that, just instructing him what to do), where the solution involved the two of us flying out of opposite portals at the same time and crashing into each other in midair. It was such a preposterous solution, and coming up with it nearly killed me, but it felt so good when I finally got it. And then our little robots high-fived. And GLaDOS made a funny (she was as great as ever in this part of the game). In addition to being a fantastic single-player romp, Portal 2 ended up being the most worthwhile multi-player experience of the year.
5. Shadows of the Damned
Sudas first new IP since No More Heroes, and his debut on high-definition consoles is something special, even if its not quite in the same league as the original NMH or Killer7. This is as crazy, cool and funny a game as you can ask for. Sudas take on horror is a little bit too silly to be scary, but thats the way I like it, and it does occasionally get fairly intense. Im tempted to describe the boss fights but theyre too hilariously amazing, I dont want to spoil it. And then there are the little bedtime stories Garcia and Johnson read together. And the totally surreal hallucinatory levels you run through. And dick jokes. Many dick jokes. This game was awesome.
4. Ōkamiden
Ōkamiden doesnt have one quarter of the depth or the beauty or the brilliance of Ōkami, sure, of course. Its a DS game. But what it does offer is a great, simplified Ōkami experience for the DS, some great boss fights, and a metric ton of personality. The grossly exaggerated expression of shock on Chibiterasus face each time a new partner declares the nickname theyve decided to bestow on him followed by a depression so profound that a raincloud appears above his head never ceases to fill me with an ecstatic happiness. And the absurd vaudevillian comedy routine that every cutscene becomes is priceless. And then theres Manpuku. I defy you not to love his character. But seriously, this is a really fun game, there are some really great boss fights, its fairly long, and it gets better and better as it goes along. Just as Ōkami was a wonderful swan song for the PS2 (I guess; I played it on Wii), Ōkamiden is an excellent swan song for the DS.
3. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
I put 180 hours into Skyrim, possibly the most Ive ever played any one game ever. Certainly the most of any game of this console generation. Its absurd how much content is in that game. I kept 92 save files. Thats 92 points of interest over the course of the game that I thought were worth keeping, should I ever feel some inexplicable urge to return to them. Jesus. I got to level 50. I did so many dungeons. I did all the main quest lines. Cicero. No, no. Im getting ahead of myself. For most of the game I didnt use a companion. I became a master of stealth. God, stealth is good in that game. I could miraculously get behind anybody, and cut their neck with my dagger. Enemies of such a high level that I had no business going up against were dead in one blow. Ungh. And then theres magic. And then theres
magic of exploring the world, and interacting with its citizens. God. I dont feel like this even needs to be justified. In fact I should justify why its not my #1 game of the year (although these top 3 are kind of interchangeable). I didnt like it more than Fallout 3. I felt that at 100 hours long, Fallout 3 was more focused. I feel like if you add it all up, I spent literally hours staring at Skyrims loading screen. And you know, for example when I decided I wanted to move all my thousands of things from my Whiterun home to Proudspire Manor in Solitude and it took like an hour of back and forth return trips stuff like that was a little much. The games massive scale is altogether too massive. That hurts it sometimes. But God, theres so much to love about it. Theres nothing quite like it that can even compare.
2. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Having been playing Ocarina of Time 3D immediately before, and generally having had a steady fix of Zelda games for the last little while, it didnt fully sink in until I started playing Skyward Sword: this is a new 3D console Zelda game, a once-a-
event: a proper new entry in my favourite series of all-time. Once I started playing it, it was incredible. Some reviewers have said its the best Zelda game ever made, or at least the best of the five 3D console entries (which are the ones I care most about). Id put it at number 4 of 5, but the top 3 are all among my top ten games of all time, and this new game is definitely in the same league as those (and way better than Twilight Princess). In certain ways its better. This game has a sense of humour beyond any other Zelda game and is absolutely brimming with personality. And oh man, the things you do for gratitude crystals Its legitimately hilarious. The controls are excellent and fun and innovative and I have no complaints about that. I noticed it doesnt use the IR for aiming it actually uses the motion+ for pointer controls too and its surprisingly effective. The dungeons are perfect. The sidequests are fantastic. Theres a good balance of dungeons and sidequests. My only minor complaint is the way the world is structured. Skyloft is pretty much the only interesting place in all of the sky whereas the sea in Windwaker was full of interesting islands including at least a couple major town-type islands. Here, there are a couple other minor locations and pretty much everything else is just boring rocks with those unlockable treasure chests on them. Furthermore, the surface is very segmented in its three distinct locations and I miss the feeling of everything being all one world. Also, I love the art-style, where everything looks like a watercolour painting, but I think Windwaker, in its big bright simplicity, is still a bit more beautiful to me. Skyward Sword would look incredible if it was in HD. There are other even smaller ways that I prefer Windwaker (and OoT and MM). But these arent real complaints. Theyre more explanations as to why I still dont like it quite as much my three favourite Zelda games. Skyward Sword is nonetheless incredible in its own way. Probably
of the way its world is structured, I didnt miss hardly any sidequests along the way. I got all those damn gratitude crystals. It was awesome. It took me over 60 hours to get to the end of this game, probably the most Ive ever spent on a Zelda game (and the reason why this post is so disastrously delayed). And the quality of entertainment sustained throughout that time is absurd.
1. Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
Ghost Trick was not on my radar at all, and it was not until about a week after it was released that it even caught my eye at all. Its a January release but Ive never forgotten about it. It was always the game to beat this year. Ghost Trick is the best DS game ever made. Nothing else comes close. The 3DS came out in March, but between this game and the others on this list, 2011 was the best year yet for Nintendos 7-year old handheld. Craziness. Seriously, Ghost Trick is amazing. It doesnt have a remotely comparable scope to Skyward Sword or Skyrim, but within its smaller scope it is perfect. And no other game of last year has the sheer charm and personality, nor the staggering originality of Ghost Trick (although Skyward Sword does have a shit-ton of charm and personality). The cast of characters is one of the best of any videogame, as is the story, but the story follows a certain logic such that I could only imagine it as a videogame. In other words, though it is a heavily narrative-focused game, somehow its the sort of narrative you can only get from gaming, and the game is so good in this way that I feel it deserves its place among gamings great icons. It is thoroughly and supremely delightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And the gameplay itself is completely unlike anything else Ive ever experienced and it is fun and clever as hell. Ghost Trick deserves at the very least the same status as Shu Takumis previous creation, Phoenix Wright. That game is fantastic in much the same way as Ghost Trick, but Ghost Trick is way better. Its the best game nobody played, the best surprise of the year, and my GOTY. Ill have to replay this sometime soon
So yes! I declare there were not one but three GOTY-worthy masterpieces last year. And the rest of the games on this list are truly outstanding. I dare say 2011 was the best year for gaming since 2008. The last couple of years I bitched a little bit that there were too many games, and not enough
games. But this past year everything was so good. I cant complain.

I own up to also belonging to "please stop banging on about........." camp simply because I'm quite clear Mr Lin is well aware of our wish to see it asap and "busting his chops" isn't going to make any difference at all except maybe him off.
Red "Ugh... I am SO tired of waiting for the GWS P-38... I'm standing on the edge of the abyss to purchase a Flying Styro P-38... ...I could slip off the edge any moment..." or someone could push you JOKE - OK???! Interestingly, in an attempt to join in with the positive comments in this thread, I went to the Mountain Models site to check the price of their P-38 as a suggested alternative. And its no longer listed - Hmmmm I wonder why? |

I assume you mean you have 40 PDF files and can't get them into one file? If you want, zip them up and e-mail them to me. I'll be happy to merge them into one file and send it back to you and/or post them for everybody. Ryan |

Random GWS Supporters aren't going to stop voicing thier support just because "Ken said so". Say Red and I DID stop... you know dang well that within another 12 hours another RCG'er will post about it again. Bottom line? This project is bigger than any ONE person saying "knock it off". When support for a project starts to die, the project dies... and I won't let it happen while I'm here, especially with this P-38 that hundreds of people voiced thier support on. It's called a Forum... where people come to talk about things they are interested in. There's no rule that says, "stop talking about that, it's annoying". The GWS dealer forum is lucky if it gets 4 or 5 newly posted threads a day. There are at least 30 different rooms in RCG... if we "annoy" you here... then? -Chris PS: What a beautiful P-38 model milky! |

Okay -- I'm going to break my silence...
1) Thank you to everyone who supported me in this. I realize how my constant posts on P-38's can seem annoying; perhaps on a subconsious level they are designed to be annoying (to GWS and Mr. Lin -- nobody else). 2) Kensp -- give me a break! Your P-38 design instructions with "minimal tools" is a JOKE! What is "minimal" to you is absolutely not minimal to me! What do you call that tool in post #21 of your thread?! How many people do you think have that "minimal tool" laying around the house?! I've spent some time looking at many of your posts, and you do a great many things that are WAY outside my league -- please don't expect everyone to do things as effortlessly as you do. 3) Pitching your P-38 build thread on this GWS P-38 thread SHOULD be considered offensive to a great many people -- ESPECIALLY GWS and Mr. Lin. This thread is not about you. 4) If I annoy you, there's no reason I should not continue to post. You can simply add me to your "ignore" list. It's that simple. There is no reason for you to be rude to me in a public forum. 5) This thread is about the GWS 38. How can you possibly get upset when someone posts that they want to see the GWS 38 be produced? If so, simply unsubscribe from the thread! It's really that simple. 6) It sounds to me like you've given up on the GWS 38. That's fine -- move on, but don't on the rest of us. 7) Saying the Lockheed lawsuit threat is a valid reason for GWS to ditch the P-38 is just plain silly. Plenty of other companies have successfully produced P-38 items -- Flying Styro has an RC model, and I recently bought a P-38 toy for my son which cost less than $2 where's the excessive royalty in that?! The truth is that GWS is LAZY, and CHEAP, and does not want to pursue the P-38 -- they're using the threat of lawsuit as a simple EXCUSE (and a poor one at that). As such, I am PROUD to say I've given up on the GWS P-38. I have stepped over that abyss I spoke of earlier, and I will be ordering a Flying Styro P-38 on January 16 (the day after my birthday -- I want to wait and see if I get any gift certificates to Hobby Lobby before I make the purchase). If GWS ever does get off their and produce the P-38, I might go ahead and purchase one -- but GWS has allowed their excessive procrastination to lose a customer. I am not waiting any longer!

I hate to say I'm getting close to that point as well Red.
My favorite plane has always been the P-38 and since I started flying my ultimate goal has been to own one. That plane and a B-17 (but that's another thread hehe). I just don't have the talent to create one out of foam myself so I do rely on manufactures to create a kit. I've followed ken's build thread but I just don't trust my ability to get the wing shapes correct or even to make it remotely look like a p-38 when I'm done lol. It would be nice to see something on this plane picture wise from GWS to prove it's still coming. They say it is but we've not seen one ounce of proof of it. The only alternative is really the FS one but to outfit that plane is expensive. I have been hoping for a cheaper alternative. My flying skills are now at the point where I think I can fly one and I won't be able to wait much longer to start building one. I do hope GWS delivers. |

In fact these FSK birds are originally designed to be flown well on two cheap brushed 300 6V motors. Hobby-Lobby used to recommend brushed 300 6V for FSK planes. The brushless outfit recommended by Hobby Lobby for P38 is NOT a high power setup. The main benefit would only be longer flight time so if you want to save money, then go with the brushed motors and you will not lose much in terms of hot dogging performance. |
Jan 13, 2006, 02:12 AM | |
I dont find kens comments at all offensive. This thread is DEAD without other dialogue being contributed, as there is NO GWS P38 at this stage. And there be new threads when there is.
Now if Mr Lin were to update us it might get back on track. In the meantime, stop crying like sissy men! |
Jan 13, 2006, 02:22 AM | |
Guys, stop with the argument in here....
Read the title of this thread... if you don't like the relevant things people have to chat about in here... then leave. Plain and simple. -Chris PS: Not picking on you Suntzu ... just referring to the attacks/trolling from people in general. |

My building technique, using both foam and balsa, has taken a long time to perfect and in fact my first four attempts at scratch building would be rated from abysmal up to poor. It is because I did in not say "I cannot do this", but persisted and learnt by each failure that I can now build to my present standard. Ken Ken |

Comment: Re:Gonna see a Net Neutrality Fee (Score 1) 546
Your ISP is not a free market with competition.
Nor are Comcast, Time Warner, Verizon, or most of the other ISPs that this net neutrality bill is aimed at. In fact, the last ISP I mentioned, and which you recognized as not being in a "free market", is the one with the MOST competition and least regulation. It's a grown-up mom and pop dialup operation so there's no franchise fee or last-mile wired/wireless infrastructure to support. It resells DSL and supports Windows, mostly. Even so, they've found a convenient way to tack on the costs of regulatory compliance, which will almost certainly go up.
Claiming that the costs that will be created by compliance with the new neutrality regulations won't be passed on to the consumer because the free market won't allow it is kinda disingenuous when you realize that none of the players that will be subject to this cost are in a truly free, competitive market. They will all find a way to pass it on, either in higher rates or an added line-item fee.

The Time SentinelEternity.The Time Sentinel by NemoX7
Lost and imprisoned cocoon,
The Sentinel slumbers
Counting infinite numbers.
While life marches
Forever onwards
To his unending tune.
In his bubble, outside of space,
The Sentinel silence bound
Watches us and hears us;
But we know not his name
Nor hear his tick-tock trace
Of his pendulum ball and chain
Echoing forth without sound.
Alone and cursed universe,
The Sentinel savours
Granting random favours.
While life crawls
Always forwards
By his chronicle verse.
Upon his chair, seat of time,
The Sentinel sacred alert
Loves us and hates us;
But we care not for shame
Nor know his chain-link crime
Of days past in omen rain
Mourning his corporeal inert.
Grief and stricken façade,
The Sentinel stares
Taunting omnipotent dares.
While life struggles
Never backwards
To the sun he once had.
From his hell, jewel of delirium,
The Sentinel sacrosanct eyes
Guides us and destroys us;
But we know not his game
Nor fear his ululating medium
To wishful liberty of pain
The Word RoseAnd from the blue and cotton clouds,The Word Rose by NemoX7
Out forth I plucked for you -
A single word rose.
Notebook petals, blooming in the blood
Of scarlet love,
Dripping sweet melodies from high above
Showering us in an embracing flood.
It was a single word rose
And upon it was written your heart
In the form of a hundred rhymes
Playing out your song,
Your beautiful song
And nothing could let it fall apart.
And from the blue and cotton clouds,
Out forth I plucked for you -
A single word rose.
Poetic thorns, glaring through the gale
Of obsidian disgust,
Sneering dark voices of our innocent lust
Whispering to us of that word rose pale.
It was a single word rose
And within it was hidden my heart
In the form of a thousand crimes
Weeping all my sins,
All my blackest sins
But no one ever saw me fall apart.
And from the blue and cotton clouds,
Out forth I plucked for you -
A single word rose.
Word rose, oh where are you?
Word rose, ah shining in the blue,
You hide my secrets and
Cover yourself in her heart.
The Lost SoldierThere's an angel crying next to meThe Lost Soldier by NemoX7
I think its crazy, but
She's weeping silently, while I drink my tea,
But her lips crack like those on porcelain
And no matter what I do:
Summer blues turn silver glass into rain.
Oh, lord! An angel is crying next to me
And my heart is broken, drowning in her pain.
I don't need no thrills,
No urban frills,
To feel her warmth decay.
Oh can you not see her breath chills?
Behind muslin eyes she hides
Whatever forges her diamanté tears
Like snowdrop dew of yesterday.
There's an angel sobbing beside me,
I think she's insane, but
She's dying inside again, while I drink my tea,
Like another drop of sugar, her spirit dissolves
And no matter what I know:
Winter moon burns the stars who revolve.
Oh, lord! An angel is sobbing beside me
And I don't know what to do, please help me!
She is puzzle, a riddle, I can't solve.
She does not want my pity,
My masque eccentricity,
To see her intelligence waver.
Oh can you not feel her skin frigidity?
In silken breast sh
Our WorldTonight we shall awakeOur World by NemoX7
And we'll feel better;
While scars dictate out a eulogy
Before icicle stars drip a lake
Of blood and ink.
And our life is scribed
And our destiny transcribed
Upon ozone highways of
A time swept letter.
Tonight we shall smile
And we'll be fine;
While bones taunt us in penury
Out of sync to heart's design:
Never will we blink.
And our strife is mystified
And our history pacified
Towards x-ray epitaphs on
A lunar forged shrine.
Tonight we shall glow
And we'll fly high;
As souls sing forth in melody
To harp string's of an angel's sigh,
But joy fades in a wink.
And we're alive
There's nothing we can't survive
And we're a mystery
To bandaged eyes living misery.
So let's set things right!
Let's burn out tonight!
Set the world alight
With the unity of our cries,
Never to let the flames burn low
Nor to allow our nightmares
Permission to fester and grow.
So let's set things right!
Tonight we shall awake
And even if it kills us;
The world. Our world.
Will be alright.
The Tale Of Cockaigne Re-ToldIn the time of Cockaigne I went there, and heard Rome and the Lateran dancing past with a wild woollen braid, and a maiden without arms who shot a dumb goose, and a deft blunt bullet that swept past a forest. There I saw an antique foal with two copper ears which guided two blind zebras, and an olive-tree that was very minute, on which icy apricots were decaying. There I felt a fat young salamander which carried about a single drip-drop of air in his mouth, and thirty gulps of thirst. Have I told you the truth yet? There I heard a smoke smoking with mouse and elephant, and an elder of a hundred years bribe nine kidney beans from Ratisbon to Treves, and from Treves to Strasburg, and a newt flew under the Rhine, which he had a perfect right to do. There I smelled an octopus begin to make such a disturbance with itself, that it reverberated as close as hell, and dour oil bubbled like fire from a low crevice at the edge of a low volcano, and these were wonderful things.

Crocodile sole shuffling,
Fidgets blistered fingers
Upon the fragility of a skin.
His lips, pale and trembling,
In the icy blue -
He wonders where did it begin.
Smoking the air like a cigarette,
He stamps a warning beat
To ward off those petty minxes,
Who'd freeze his heartbeat.
And across a simple stream
As serene and blue as a dream,
He gazes.
Society wearing masks of black,
Herd around one of their fallen,
Clasping lilies and faux fur sobs;
But they are blind to the fool,
Drunk with selfish poverty.
Beside cryptic graffiti,
Straw laced despondency,
Mutters broken mouth
Over the jocundity of a wine.
His eyes, dark in regency,
In piteous light -
Hides a soul gone past fine.
Downing his nectar like clear aqua,
He swallows a choking fear
To remind himself to stay alive,
Even if nothing to him is clear.
And before a cotton cloud
As wispy and grey as a shroud,
He stares.

a time for black and white.
You can tell she is sad
from the twisted trees she draws
with her colorless pen.
She struggles to find a word
who could define that universe
she used to know so well.
Only one thing is sure today,
there is a time for colors
and it will come again.
Now she sits by the window
eyes fixed on the storm,
slowly breathing in
a time for black and white.
One single piece of paper
empty as her mind
glows in the dim light.
Oh dear sun, even
you can tell she is sad.
Some bittersweet melody
she can't quite recognize
fills the room for a moment
and you'd believe it's coming
from the twisted trees she draws.
When the rain has stopped falling,
the petrichor comes to her lungs
so she rises, and walks out smiling
through the tiny forest she has drawn
with her colorless pen.
Desperate for a ChangeUneasy, anxiously, I'm waiting hereDesperate for a Change by Daghrgenzeen
Where shadows gather, and quickly disappear;
I'm waiting while I'm hating what I'm waiting for -
Waiting for the poison to hits its mark.
"I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown.
Sing Hallelujah 'cause you can't change anything."
I am still here, waiting,
Remembering the words you said:
that we will never die.

Poem Of The Day Hi there! Welcome to my new daily feature "Poem of the Day" where I will feature a poem I really enjoyed for 24 hours or so. My inductee for 19/11/2014 is... With a narrative katauta, which is themed on winter. Utilising personification, imagery and smart word choice, and layered with multiple interpretations for the reader to enjoy. I imagined due to the wonderful use of personification of winter as two skaters performing a ritualistic dance for the beginning of a new winter. A fantastic read. |

I've added yet more new candids today, including new ones taken earlier today of Naomi and Liev at Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness's house, where Hugh and Deborah hosted a pool party to celebrate their 12th wedding anniversary. You can see a cute pic of Hugh admiring Alexander at Just Jared!
I've also added a poll for you to vote on what you would like to see more of here at Blue Jewel. Obviously the Gallery is by no means finished yet, and a few of the Naomi sections still need to be written/completed, so I'd be interested to know what you would like me to focus on adding … please vote :p
? Sydney, April 4th x1
? Sydney, April 9th x15
? Sydney, April 13th x2
? Sydney, March 3rd x44 more
It doesn't feature our Naomi so I'm only posting it here, rather than in the Gallery. What do you think of it? I prefer it to the all-white one of the boys … this one looks more sinister and creepy…
I've added the rest of the 2008 candids I have – over 180 have been added, most of which are HQ! Naomi looks so beautiful … and look at this shot – how lucky are Naomi and Liev to live there, hehe.
I've also added a few new link back buttons, new affiliates and updated the sidebar with a new Quote and Picture & Site Of The Moment. I'll add Interact responses tonight too.
? 2008 Candids additions x181
From the 'Sydney more expensive than New York: Watts' article posted below, it sounds like Naomi will be featured in the new issue of a Harpers Bazaar … so I did some searching and it looks like it will be the Australian edition. You can see a preview of the contents page here. I'll be looking out for scans, but if anyone from Australia would like to contribute them to Blue Jewel then please contact me!
Naomi Watts has apparently revealed she'd like a second child. The 39-year-old, who is mum to nine-month-old Alex, hinted to the Daily Mirror she'd like another baby sooner rather than later. "I am not too tired, which is a great sign, right?" she told the newspaper. "I'd love to have another one. Maybe soon." She also reportedly explained how being a mother has taken its toll on the amount of acting work she does.
The British-born, Australia-raised star Naomi Watts has two screen careers. In one, she's a muse to blue-chip international auteurs: she has agonised memorably for David Cronenberg (Eastern Promises), Alejandro Gonz?lez I??rritu (21 Grams) and David Lynch (Mulholland Drive). In the other, she has staked out a niche as an upmarket "scream queen", facing perils in Japan-horror remake The Ring and Peter Jackson's ape epic, King Kong.
Multimillionaire Aussie actress Naomi Watts has admitted that even she struggles to afford Sydney rents. "It's out of control and kind of grotesque," she told Harper's Bazaar. "It's more expensive to rent here than New York." Watts says for the amount people are paying in Sydney, you could get a large house in LA. "A two-bedroom place on the beach here rents for the same price as what my large house in LA rents for. And that's got a pool, an acre of land, and it's in the best area. "I have no interest in LA, though we do spend part of the year there. Liev [Schreiber, her partner] is a diehard New Yorker. We laugh about it being a New Yorker's right to hate LA."
I decided to catch up on all the 2008 candids, and have added all I have from January and February, excepting one set that is still to come. There are lots of March candids to add as well I've also added a new, rare photoshoot taken at Cannes 2001 … and (this is the 'treat' I mentioned the other day) Blue Jewel can also give you the exclusive out-takes from Naomi's recent and very gorgeous Esquire photoshoot! The out-takes are even better than the ones in the magazine in my opinion Big thanks goes to Mycah for pointing me in the direction of them. Please enjoy these photos here and here alone.
? 2008 Candids x120+
? Session #121 x4
? Session #120 x7 *exclusive!*
Screencaps from We Don't Live Here Anymore are up! I think Naomi's performance in this movie is under-rated – her character isn't very nice but she makes her sympathetic and you really do end up feeling for her. Another subtle perfomance from Ms Watts! Plus she and Mark Ruffalo had brilliant chemistry – I'd really love to see them work together again.

It is essential for Turkey and Israel to act together if the problems in the Middle East are to be eliminated. The view of one country's government may not always agree with that of another, but such problems at government level among friendly countries are generally artificial and temporary. And they never reflect the general thinking and attitudes of the public.
Turkey and Israel are two friendly countries. Two countries in the most important part of the world. And in the most inflammable and dangerous part of the world. But they also have other things in common.
The Turkish public are religious, but secular, as is the Israeli public. The Turkish public and government have never allowed bigotry to govern the country. The same with the Israeli public and government.
Materialist ideologies have never ruled the Turkish public, and the people have never grown selfish. The same with the Israeli public.
The Turkish people have always lived by the warm and loving side of religion that stresses friendship and brotherhood. As have the Israeli people.
The Turkish and Israeli people have always shared the same cultures, traditions and pleasures. Both peoples possess a beauty of heart and depth of soul which are very rare in the world. The peoples of both countries possess invaluable human values. Invaluable, because these are values the world longs for now.
Combined with their geopolitical positions, these shared characteristics impose major responsibilities on both countries. Surrounded by circles of fire, these two countries must come together. But why? The Middle East is a region dominated by mostly Arab countries.
But Arab countries have made grave mistakes and face numerous disadvantages. First, many of the Arab countries have surrendered to bigotry, not to true Islamic moral values. Various forces that implement traditions and nonsense under the name of Shari'a, or Islamic law, that portray violence and savagery as legitimate and call that Islam, that base themselves on anger instead of the true essence of Islam, which is love, and that regard women as second-class citizens are powerful in those countries.
The second problem in the region is the long-lasting effects of the Ba'ath party, the terrifying system that turned the peoples of the region toward Marxism, that made aggression and violence a necessity and that caused unrest and isolation for many years.
The third problem is Arab countries in the region, and Iran, being direct or indirect members of the Shanghai bloc; their maintaining the mentality of conflict and war that lies at the basis of the Shanghai bloc and constant receipt of arms from Russia and China.
So long as weapons, and arms manufacturers, exist, there will always be war. War will either be produced artificially or someone will pave the way for it. This filthy sector is always kept alive in some way. One of the main places where this is put into action is the Middle East with its countries influenced by the Shanghai bloc.
That is the terrible situation of the Arab countries in the Middle East. They try to make the fine people there forget about love. They try to make them forget about freedom, friendship, affection and love. They try to convince the people there that war and killing their brothers is legitimate. They brainwash people with the ideology of the Ba'ath party using education and imposition and try to justify the filthy logic of slaughter. But the peoples of Arab countries are rising up against that foul logic. This is not a religious conflict. Nor a search for a national identity. It is merely people seeking love and liberation from dictators.
The peoples of these Arab countries in the region cannot overcome this wide-ranging problem on their own. They cannot oppose the Shanghai bloc, set up as a defense bloc against USA. And they cannot, alone, support an ideology opposed to the bloody ideology of the Ba'ath party. They are living under a despotic system. The destructive effects of this despotic system must be eliminated first. The people there need a helper, a guide, a liberator.
That is where Turkey and Israel need to join forces and become involved. First, this is needed because Islam commands believers who say "God is One" to be united. The Koran commands Muslims to be brothers with Jews and Christians, to show them affection and protect them and to grow stronger in unity with them. Anyone who maintains the opposite is lying.
Second, Turkey and Israel are the only two countries that have been purged of the bigotry in the region and that act through a religious conception of love, and far removed from Marxism. They must reverse the loveless education provided by dictators and the Ba'athist regimes. They must teach love to the people there. If lovelessness has been established through education of perverse ideologies, if killing is made easy through education, then education is needed to reverse the situation.
False ideas that depict killing as justified and that have been installed in people's minds with neat effort over a long period of time must be replaced by true beliefs. That is why two devout countries such as Turkey and Israel that do not confuse bigotry with religion must come together as brothers, grow stronger against all movements of the antichrist and emerge as a force that can save people who are on the brink of ruin.
No dictator in the Middle East could shed blood in the face of two such powerful countries united with bonds of love and friendship.
No dictator could threaten any other country. No country could behave aggressively toward another.
Such a power would act like a shield against certain dictators who imagine there is no opposition to them.
The Middle East would immediately be pacified in the face of such a power. Neither women, children nor whole peoples would be oppressed in the Middle East; neither countries nor communities would be threatened with being wiped off the face of the map or being expelled; and there would be no wretched refugees forced away from their homes. Such a power would act as a deterrent against despots and also represent a huge force in terms of representing love and union.
This is not utopian. This is not difficult. It is what needs to happen and is very easy. The union of devout believers and supporters of love will give rise to an irresistible force. Two countries combining together and growing stronger in the Middle East, forming a powerful union of faith, will make for new blood. This force will be a most important step in the elimination of all threats from the world and once again making the world a place of love.
That is why this work falls to the governments and also to the Turkish and Israeli peoples. Governments should leave the artificial problems behind and should remember that separation will bring greater harm to both countries.
They should remember their big brother role and act according to this. And the people of those two countries must espouse union and friendship and raise this issue everywhere, taking no notice of difficulties and artificial problems.

St. Louis (19-19-7) vs Minnesota (24-20-3) Jan 14th - 8:00pm EST
Let's Go Blues!!! :handclap:
no GDT? |
Solid first period. Good puck possession and puck pursuit. Would like to see more finished checks on their d though.
I wish I could watch the game, but there arent any streams.
But from the stats, we peppered them 18-4 in shots, its only a matter of time.....keep the pressure on! |
glad this one wasn't blacked out...we are dominating the shots but just can't hit the back of the net
Oshie with the top circle snipe!!!
Boyes needs to take better shots. He needs to keep building on this recent stretch of good games.
Boogard should be gone |
A guy 6'8 has to throw 2 sucker punches...what a *****. The way that moron has played against us the past few years cheapshotting Blues players, I have no idea why Janssen wasn't dressed. Kariya is useless and shouldnt be dressed until he can get his head out of his ass.
chalk up another win for the good guys
The Blues should have gotten a goal or two in the first 2 periods, but 2 points is 2 points. Nice to see them be able to gut out the win. Minnesota has been playing very well of late, so this is a quality win.
The Rangers are going to come in Saturday following back to back shutout losses. Should be an intense game. I think Mason gets the start again. |
Mod Edit
Yes, Oshie slewfooted Ebbett. But you can see him losing his balance and wrapped his arms around Ebbett. Illegal? Yes. But he didn't do it purposefully. But you can't deny that what Boogaard did was crap. Has the ref in between them, and still throwing punches was cheap. |
mod edit
Your opinion is valid. If I remember the play correctly Oshie and Ebbett both had each other tied up with Oshie's skate behind Ebbitts. Only Oshie knows if he slew footed him purposefully or was a result of both of them falling. he got his penalty i believe. Boogard is a disgrace to Hockey. If you're that big and you need to throw sucker punches and cheap shots then you are nothing more than a worthless 13itch. Be a man for gosh sakes. He knows Jansson didnt dress, so he could run around with no repercussions. He has a history of repeated attempts to injure Blues players (mcKee twice i believe) so whatever your team gets....they have it coming to them for dressing that moron. |
I thought it looked like a slewfoot, too. But I also thought it looked accidental as they got tangled and both went down.
Either way Blues 1 Wild 0, I really like how we have been blocking key shots but we still need to be better in the shooting percentage department. It was an unintentional slew foot, things happens. It wasnt a sucker punch to a guy who didnt even make that hit.
Weird, I went to check out what Minnesota fans were saying and I didn't even find a gameday thread at all...the day after the game.
The 2 minute penalty seems consistent with this call. I think this is a non-issue and a lot of hot air. (Kaleta SHOULD have been suspended for the elbow on Kariya, especially after doing this in the same game. Not a very good defense that it was "an accident".) |
Looked to me that it was accidental. At the very most it was Oshie going too fast and the Minnesota player going too slow and, with incidental contact, one was bound to end up on his ass. Since he fell on Oshie, both fell down. Nothing more, nothing less.
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 07:36 PM. |

Arizona Cardinals
Updated May 30, 2014 - 9:24 am
Report: Free agent LB Ernie Sims pays visit to Arizona Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals are always looking for roster help.
That search is exacerbated by Friday's news that linebacker Daryl Washington is facing a season-long suspension in 2014.
According to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, the Cardinals are looking for another inside linebacker, and they've brought in free agent Ernie Sims for a visit.
Sims, 29, was a first-round pick of the Detroit Lions out of Florida State in 2006. He spent four years in Detroit before moving on to Philadelphia in 2010, Indianapolis in 2011 and Dallas for the last two seasons. With the Cowboys, Sims played in 22 games, starting 12 and registering 86 total tackles.

Joakim Noah Has No Patience For Your Goddamn Flopping
The Chicago Bulls played without Derrick Rose and Pau Gasol last night, and got rolled by Boogie Cousins and the Kings as a result.

Grosse Pointe Farms
October 23, 2013Blue Devils golf takes fourth at state finals
Pendy takes top honors
By Thomas Franz
C & G Staff Writer
Grosse Pointe South's Tenley Shield follows her shot during the state finals. Shield finished in fourth place individually with scores of 78, 81.
EAST LANSING — Grosse Pointe South's Lily Pendy won the top medalist title at the MHSAA Division 1 state finals held this past weekend at Forest Akers West in East Lansing.
Shooting scores of 74 and 76 in the two-day competition, Pendy's cumulative score of 150 was six strokes better than her closest competitor. Her first-place finish helped South take fourth place in team competition with a score of 726 for the weekend.
"She scrambled to get up and down when she had to. She really played fantastic golf," South coach Mike Rennell said.
As a team, Rennell was pleased with the way South performed, despite having a golfer withdraw on the second day due to illness.
"I expected us to be in the top five, and they were. We played well. The girls scrambled, they played well, and I can't be unhappy with the way we played because any time you're top five in the state, that's pretty good," Rennell said.
Senior Tenley Shield shot a 78 and 81 to take home fourth place individually.
South finished the season as MAC Red champions with an 8-0 record in league play. To qualify for the state finals, South shot 337 as a team to finish in second place at the regional tournament that was held at Dearborn Country Club.
"As a team, I think we played about as well as we possibly could have. We worked hard and prepared well, and I'm really proud of all that we accomplished," Rennell said.
Plymouth won the state team title with a score of 706 while Stoney Creek and Troy rounded out the top three with scores of 710 and 711, respectively.

National Indem. Co. v. Nelson, Chipman & Burt, No. 2:07-CV-996 TS, 2013 WL 226881 (D. Utah Jan. 18, 2013).
A Utah federal court granted underlying defense counsel's motion for partial summary judgment against reinsurers, as subrogees of cedent and its insured, denying their right to recover attorney fees, as consequential damages. The cedent incurred attorneys' fees when it sought reimbursement from its insured for the settlement monies it paid over the policy limits on its behalf in the underlying action.
The dispute arose from an underlying litigation brought on behalf of a minor, injured during an adult softball tournament, which resulted in a verdict in excess of $6 million against the insured and other parties. Even after the cedent settled with the minor for a reduction in the award, the settlement was still in excess of the $2 million policy limit, and the insured refused to pay the amount in excess of the limits. The reinsurers, through its cedent, however, paid the full settlement amount.
The cedent subsequently sued its insured for reimbursement of the amounts it paid beyond the policy limits. The reimbursement question was certified to the Utah Supreme Court as an issue of first impression. The Supreme Court ruled that there was no extra-contractual right to restitution between an insurer and its insured, and denied reimbursement.
The reinsurers, as subrogees of the cedent and the cedent's insured, next brought malpractice claims against counsel retained by cedent in the underlying action to recover attorney fees as damages under the third-party litigation exception. The third-party litigation exception allows recovery of fees only in the limited situation where defendant's wrongful conduct foreseeably causes the plaintiff to incur attorney fees through litigation with a third party. Defense counsel subsequently moved for partial summary judgment to deny reinsurers recovery of their attorney fees.
In granting defense counsel's motion, the court held that defense counsel's actions did not fall within the third-party litigation exception to Utah's long-standing rule allowing recovery of attorney fees as consequential damages where provided by statute or contract. The court focused on the issue of foreseeability to answer the question of whether the reinsurers could recover as damages the attorney fees incurred by the cedent and its insured in determining cedent's reimbursement rights for the settlement monies paid to the minor.
The malpractice claims were based upon tort and contract causes of action. Under the tort allegations, the court held that the third-party litigation exception applies when the foreseeable and natural consequence of one's negligence is another's involvement in a dispute with a third party. For the reinsurers to recover attorney fees in tort under the third-party litigation exception, the court stated that it must be reasonably foreseeable that a contemplated loss resulting from counsel's allegedly negligent acts would be the attorney fees expended in a reimbursement action between cedent and its insured.
Moreover, if the loss of attorney fees was foreseeable, the court noted it would also have to infer that some of the other actions were foreseeable, including whether the cedent would settle with the minor for an amount in excess of policy limits, and subsequently bring a coverage action against its insured.
Similarly, under the breach of contract allegations, the court noted that in order for the reinsurers to recover attorney fees under the third-party litigation exception, it would have to infer that attorney fees expended in a reimbursement suit were reasonably foreseeable as the natural and usual course of events resulting from a breach of representation contract between an insurer and its retained counsel. The test for reasonable foreseeability was whether it could ". . . fairly and reasonably be said that if the minds of the parties had adverted to breach when the contract was made. . . ." loss of attorney fees would have been within their contemplation.
After careful analysis, the court held that no reasonable jury could return a verdict for the reinsurers' recovery of attorney fees under the third-party litigation exception in either tort or contract causes of action. The court reasoned that the coverage dispute, with its resultant attorney fees, was not the foreseeable natural consequence of counsel's alleged malpractice.

Volcano Forces Coachella Cancellations
By Tom Breihan on April 16, 2010 at 5:35 p.m. EDT
It's pretty incredible that a volcano in Iceland could have any effect on a music festival in Southern California, but that's a problem that Coachella is facing this weekend. As you've probably heard, volcanic ash from a series of eruptions under Iceland's Eyjafjallajรถkull glacier has been spreading across European airspace for the past two days, forcing European airports to cancel a huge number of flights. That's bad news for many of the Euro bands booked for Coachella and for the fans hoping to see them.
At the moment, the list of bands who won't make it out to the festival includes the Cribs, Frightened Rabbit, and, according to The New York Times, Bad Lieutenant. UPDATE: According to the Coachella Twitter, Delphic have canceled as well.
Bad Lieutenant Cancel U.S. Gigs
By Ryan Dombal on November 12, 2009 at 3:45 p.m. EST
Bernard Sumner's post-New Order band Bad Lieutenant has canceled their U.S. tour due to visa troubles, Brooklyn Vegan reports and a press release confirms.
In a statement, Sumner said, "We were all so very excited about coming to the States to play our new music for our American fans and are extremely disappointed that on this occasion, we won't have the opportunity to do so. We plan to reschedule the Chicago and New York shows along with some additional U.S. dates in Spring 2010."
The tour was to include two shows opening for the Pixies. The group is still set to hit the UK next month. Check out their updated itinerary below:
No Age, Jay Reatard to Open for Pixies
By Tom Breihan on October 19, 2009 at 11:25 a.m. EDT
Front page photo by Renaud Monfourny
We wanted it, and we're about to get it: the Pixies' Doolittle tour will hit America in November. And if it wasn't enough to see the alt-rock originators play their 20-year-old classic album in its entirety, the band has now announced the tour's full lineup of opening bands, and it is no joke.
Last week, we told you that Rain Machine, the solo project of TV on the Radio's Kyp Malone, would open some of the U.S. dates. But that was just the tip of the iceberg. Depending on what city you're in, you might also see Bad Lieutenant, the new band from former New Order frontman Bernard Sumner. Or No Age. Or Jay Reatard. Or Mew. Or Black Gold. -
Bernard Sumner Talks Bad Lieutenant Album, New Order Breakup
By Ryan Dombal on September 24, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. EDT
Pictured: Phil Cunningham, Bernard Sumner, and Jake Evans of Bad Lieutenant. Photo by Joel Chester Fildes
Considering that Bernard Sumner was a pivotal member of both Joy Division and New Order, it's kind of a big deal when the guy starts a new band. Bad Lieutenant consists of Sumner, latter day New Order guitarist Phil Cunningham, and newcomer Jake Evans. Their debut LP, Never Cry Another Tear, also features Blur bassist Alex James and New Order/Joy Division drummer Stephen Morris. Out October 6 on the band's own Triple Echo imprint, the album is filled with unpretentious guitar rock that goes down light and airy. The trio will be backed by Morris on drums when they play European dates starting late next month. (The play to hit the U.S. before the year's out.)
In a recent telephone chat, Sumner was soft-spoken and wildly modest for someone who helped create songs like "Love Will Tear Us Apart", "Blue Monday", and "Temptation". Of his tenure with New Order, he said, "I think we wrote some really good stuff together," which very well might be the understatement of the century.Click below-- after the widget featuring Bad Lieutenant tracks and a video-- to read about the singer-guitarist-keyboardist-legend's take on New Order's breakup, a new album he's working on with producer Stuart Price (Madonna, the Killers), and why Bad Lieutenant is a good fit for him right now: -
New Order Spinoff Bad Lieutenant Post First Single, "Sink or Swim"

Bad Lieutenant is the new band from former New Order frontman Bernard Sumner and late-period New Order guitarist Phil Cunningham, as well as new guy Jake Evans. Their first single, "Sink or Swim", is streaming on the band's MySpace page right now.
Bad Lieutenant (Ex-New Order) Reveal Debut Album Details
By Ryan Dombal on July 6, 2009 at 11:55 a.m. EDT
New Order are no more; Bad Lieutenant are now. The new group consists of New Order frontman Bernard Sumner, late-era New Order guitarist Phil Cunningham, and Brit newcomer Jake Evans on guitar and vocals.
"So what of those reports stating NO drummer Stephen Morris and Blur bassist Alex James were in Bad Lieutenant, too?" you ask? Excellent question. Turns out Morris and James did indeed play on songs on the forthcoming Bad Lieutenant album...but they're not official members of the group. Morris will play with the new band live, but James will not. Complicated stuff.
About that album: It's called Never Cry Another Tear and due out October 5 via Triple Echo. First single "Sink or Swim" hits September 21-- check out a promising live acoustic version of the song after the jump:
New Order Swap Peter Hook for Blur's Alex James for New Band Bad Lieutenant
By Tom Breihan on June 15, 2009 at 12:35 p.m. EDT
Back in 2007, nobody was exactly sure whether synthpop gods New Order were broken up or not. Bassist Peter Hook said that they were; everyone else in the band said they weren't.
Well, it's official now: New Order are broken up. The BBC reports that the non-Peter Hook members of the group have a new group with a new name: Bad Lieutenant. And they've also got themselves a new bassist. (via NME)
Bad Lieutenant consists of founding New Order members (and, along with Hook, former Joy Division members) Bernard Sumner and Stephen Morris, along with relatively recent New Order addition Phil Cunningham. The ringer in for Hook? Blur bassist Alex James. According to the BBC, Bad Lieutenant has recorded an album, and it's due in October. They'll also tour later in the year, presumably after James gets done playing this summer's run of Blur reunion shows.
