From The Crypt 3.8
Once upon a time in a fantasy kingdom there was an epic monster called Vile Mrazish. Mrazish was quite ordinary by monster standards. A bit of magic powers, sharp claws and a Diploma from Monster Elementary School. Nothing special... He lived in a crypt on the East side of kingdom. The East side always was very calm. No villages nearby, no Treasure Hunters, no wild neighbors like Reapers or Blood Drinkers around. Almost boring.

I was reluctant to upload photos here. My friend explained why so much better than I ever could: "I can explain your hesitancy: your photos are a part of you. It's like you took a little piece of your soul along with each picture and it's very difficult to not only share it, but to put it up for judgment."
Yeah, that's pretty much it. :)

Are You Fit to be Someone's Husband or Wife?
A man like this might initially seem to have a lot going for him, but his biggest downfall is that he comes across to women as "too needy."
What are two or three examples of behavior that makes you look "too needy" or "desperate?"
1 - Calling women way too frequently. You should never, ever call a woman three or more times if she has not yet returned your first call. Huge "no no."
2 - Always wanting to spend time around a woman. Every man should spend "quality time" with their women of interest, but you want to make time for hanging around the fellas or being involved with hobbies of your own as well. It is a "red flag" when you want to spend 24 hours per day, every day, with your woman. Especially when you just met that woman less than a month ago.
3 - Always spending money on women and buying women gifts for no reason. If a woman is your wife or long-term girlfriend, and you buy her nice meaningful gifts to show her your appreciation, that is acceptable. If you met a woman three weeks ago, and you have already bought her a diamond necklace, that makes you look needy and desperate.
You need to GET A LIFE before you invite a woman to share that life with you.
4) You have a demeanor that is so effeminate, that you make women think you are gay or bisexual
Comment: I am just going to keep it real here. I have met some men ... even a handful of my own clients ... who are heterosexual, but they behave more effeminate than some gay men do.
Similar to Factor #3, if women are always complimenting you, and referring to you as a "nice guy," but you seem to always have a problem getting a woman to connect with you romantically or sexually, it might mean that you have too much "yin" and not enough "yang." In other words, you need to present yourself as more masculine.
Step #1: Get rid of the "skinny jeans." Those were not meant for men. Trust me on this.
5) You have "let yourself go" in terms of your physical appearance, wardrobe, and grooming
Comment: As you noticed, this is the exact same "#5 factor" that I used for the women. The reason why is because I see this problem in both older men and older women.
Look at photographs from your high school years and/or college years. Do you look better than when you were young? About the same? Or significantly worse? If the answer is the latter, you have some work to do.
Join a gym or create your own at-home-workout-center. Watch what you eat and drink. Buy clothes that are more flattering to your physical appearance. Read magazines to find out better male grooming tips. Always take care of your personal hygiene.
I had a frat brother of mine in Chicago tell me last summer, "Man Alan .... I lost forty pounds, and within weeks, women started coming out of the woodworks giving me flattering attention. I couldn't believe it. Sometimes, just losing a few pounds can improve your social life tremendously."

Cool2Cast Mini Frames
By: Heidi Borchers
Think it's hard to be eco-friendly when it comes to crafting? Then you haven't seen these Cool2Cast Mini Frames from Heidi Borchers! Save blister plastic from packaging and create these cute keepsakes. These little frames make a great gift.
- Cool2Cast Fiber Plaster
- Plastic 'blister' packaging (to use for your mold)
- Craft foam (small piece, to create frame area)
- Plastic container with lid( for mixing)
- Water
- Measuring cups
- Craft stick
- Craft knife
- Select your blister packaging depending on what size project you want to make.
- Measure Cool2Cast and water into container.
- With the lid securely attached, shake the mixture for about a minute.
- In the mold, place small piece of craft foam the same size and shape you want for the frame area. Note: if you want the craft foam to be straight, place small amount of double sided tape to secure it to the bottom of the mold.
- Pour the mixed Cool2Cast into the mold and over the craft foam. Fill to approximately 3/8". Use craft stick to help remove Cool2Cast from container if needed. Clean container with paper towels or wet wipes for next use. Do not pour any Cool2Cast down drain.
- With fingers lightly tap the edges of the mold to level out the Cool2Cast. Let set undisturbed for at least two hours before removing.
- When Cool2Cast is hard to the touch, turn mold over and gently push to release frame.
- Using a craft knife, carefully start the removal of the craft foam piece. Once you get it started, you should be able to pull out the foam piece to reveal the indentation. Use craft knife to scrape any excess plaster from the frame area to create smooth edges, if needed.
- Your frame is now ready to paint with acrylic paints. When paints are dry, cut and glue a photo into frame space.
For a comprehensive video tutorial of this project, check out How to Make a Plaster Frame from Blister Packaging.

Assuming that the tdfx driver in 2.5/2.6 has not been updated recently, you probably need to look a bit deeper into the kernel's Makefile to see how its .ko gets created. And if it has been updated, you need to bug the maintainer (if there is one). Apologies if your posting above is a verbatim copy of what the kernel Makefile does! As to downloading X from cvs, you probably need to download the whole tree, and bear in mind that it may or may not compile on any particular day. Just on the offchance it might be something simple : your original posting showed that the kernel believed it had loaded dri, but by the time you ran glxinfo it wasn't working. Was there anything in the X log associated with dri ? This isn't the old "only root can use dri unless the permissions are changed" problem, I hope.

It was another restless session for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), thanks to mixed messages from Capitol Hill. Just a day after waxing optimistic on fiscal-cliff talks, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) admitted to "no substantive progress" in Washington, D.C., sending stocks lower around midday. However, while Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) pointed the finger at Republicans, he vowed Congress will "finalize this this year." Against this backdrop, and thanks to a round of encouraging economic data, Wall Street maintained the glass-half-full approach, with stocks finishing higher for a second straight day. Continue reading for more on today's market events, including:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) traded in a range of more than 100 points, but ultimately ended 36.7 points, or 0.3%, higher. As such, the blue-chip barometer settled north of both the 13,000 level and its 200-day moving average -- a feat accomplished just once since Nov. 6. Among the index's 30 components, UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) led the 21 advancers with a 3% gain, while Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) paced the eight decliners with a 2.8% loss. Alcoa (NYSE:AA), meanwhile, finished flat.
The S&P 500 Index (SPX) also dipped its toes in the red, but spent most of the session comfortably higher. By the close, the broad-market barometer tacked on 6 points, or 0.4%. Not to be outdone, the Nasdaq Composite (COMP) avoided negative territory altogether, soaring 20.2 points, or 0.7%, to end atop the 3,000 level for the first time since Nov. 6.
On the other hand, the CBOE Market Volatility Index (VIX) gave up 2.9% on the day.
A Trader's Take
"There was once again a lot of rhetoric from Washington regarding the fiscal cliff, but in the end the strong pending home sales report and a great revision higher to third-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) were big pluses for the bulls," said Schaeffer's Senior Technical Strategist Ryan Detrick. "After yesterday's strong price action we didn't give anything up -- in fact, we gained some more. Under the surface we had some big-time outperformance from small caps. They usually lead during healthy times, and that is exactly what we've been seeing recently."
Broadening the scope a bit, Detrick noted, "The reality is the economy isn't great and the fiscal cliff is scaring everyone; still, the economy is on much better footing than most give it credit. With the lowered overall expectations we've been talking about, this could be a really nice sign for continued gains."
Economic and Earnings News
Initial jobless claims fell by 23,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 393,000, reported the Labor Department, as claims for the previous week were upwardly revised to 416,000. The data was stronger than anticipated, as economists were looking for 395,000 first-time claims for unemployment benefits. However, the four-week moving average of initial claims rose by 7,500 to hit a new annual high of 405,250.
The U.S. economy expanded at an annual rate of 2.7% during the third quarter, according to the Commerce Department, up from the advance estimate of 2.0%. The preliminary GDP reading fell just shy of the consensus estimate for 2.8% growth, but marked the fastest pace of expansion since the fourth quarter of 2009.
The National Association of Realtors (NAR) said its pending home sales index improved 5.2% in October to 104.8, blowing past economists' average estimate for a 1.0% rise. Additionally, the September index was upwardly revised to 99.6. "We're seeing more impact now from steady job creation and rising consumer confidence about home buying," noted NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun.
Optimism rose during the week ended Nov. 28, according to the latest survey by the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII). The percentage of respondents with a bullish view on stocks checked in at 40.9%, up from 35.8% in the previous week. The percentage bearish dropped to 34.4% from 40.8%, while the percentage neutral edged up to 24.7% from 23.4%.

Top Quality Radio
December 2, 2014
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Houston, TX
This radio has more features than I will ever need. The basic radio function is easy to navigate with excellent signal and voice clarity even on low power. Due to the minimalistic user interface keys, the more advanced features can be a little more difficult to set up and use. Reading the owners manual is a MUST for some of them.
Hodges Marine exceeded my expectations on price and delivery of this radio. It arrived within three days of placing the order. I will definitely order from them again.

Standard Horizon Hx851 handheld
July 22, 2014
Reviewer: Anonymous Person
The unit arrived in a few days and in good shape. Typical for Hodges Marine. It powered up out of the box (a bit of a novel experience of late). Major functions were tested and performed as expected. The only negative aspect is the distance between the mic. and the speaker. This is more of a personal issue than a product issue. Durability, time will tell though our Standard devices are relatively reliable. So, bottom line, so far so good.

Good quality
June 12, 2014
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Bend, Oregon
Nicely designed and adequate quality for a handheld.
My only suggestion for improvement would be a larger display, with larger text. Currently, the displayed information is too small for my eyesight, especially under moving conditions. GPS speed is displayed, but rounded to the nearest MPH (no decimal). Neither issue is a deal breaker however.

First VHF hand-held radio
September 24, 2013
Reviewer: Greg from Eastern N.C., Pamlico Sound
I've had a boat-mounted unit for years, but this hand-held is great. Not only can I take it on more than one water craft, but there are tons of features, like two channel reception, multi-power levels, GPS, MMSI/DSC etc. Yaesu makes it and I've had good experience with their land-based emergency responder radios. I hope I never lose it over the side, but it's great that it floats. I've got an adapter to connect it to the mast-head, whip antenna on my sail boat for even greater reception than it already has. Great product. It brings me real peace of mind.

Love her or loathe her, Margaret Thatcher certainly had the most profound impact on British politics during the post-World War II era. Alan Byron's documentary offers an extensive view of Thatcher's life and the effects of her policies during her 1979-1990 administration as Prime Minister.
For many Americans, the film's most interesting footage would involve television interviews conducted with Thatcher during the years when she made a slow but steady ascension through the Conservative Party ranks – one interview, conducted with her young twins present, showed her deftness at balancing the image of a serious politician and a caring mother. A number of British journalists weigh in on Thatcher's career trajectory, albeit with occasional jabs of sour humor. (One wag gives the impression that Thatcher's business executive husband Denis merely served as a sugar daddy to finance her political ambitions, while another coyly insinuates that Thatcher was not above using feminine guiles to influence the men who ran British politics.)
The film provides an objective cataloging of Thatcher's socioeconomic and foreign policy achievements, with the British victory in the Falklands War as her crowning glory. Ultimately, the Thatcher that emerges here is a complex force of energy whose work continues to impact British society – and, quite frankly, the real deal was infinitely more mesmerizing than Meryl Streep's Oscar-winning imitation.

Anime: Shingeki no Kyojin/Attack on Titan
Second Person POV
What is love? You find yourself asking yourself this question, and you were no person to judge what love is. You think it's what you feel when you're with your superior.
You love that raven haired clean-freak. You remembered all the times you spent with him, enjoying eachother's company. His kisses, the make out sessions, the rare cuddling... They were all among the best memories. However, you were always afraid of someone taking him away from you.
There was a cadet in the legion with you named (I'm making this up) Juniper. She was in love with Levi. You thought she was prettier and much better than you. Many times you thought she was more deserving of Levi than you.
You knew he loved you. You've seen him litterally throw her out the door to run, just because you got a little bit insecure. You knew he loved you. But you were scared that suddenly he would look at Juniper, and suddenly wonder why he chose you.
It was terrifying, the thought if losing him made your eyes water, brimming with tears.
You talked to the girls about this. These girls being Sasha, Ymir, Christa, and Mikasa. You trusted them so much, besides, they also hated Juniper's guts.
"He's not gonna go with her, right? I know she's prettier than me... But, he wouldn't leave me.... Would he?" You asked the girls, feeling insecure. You guys were sitting in the girls shared barracks, each of you on your beds talking.
"No way (Y/N)... He loves you more than I love food." Sasha, says. You nod your head. You know how much Sasha loved food.
"Yeah, that means he loves you a lot. Besides, you're way prettier, nicer, and tougher than that blonde-haired demon." Ymir stated. The others nodded or hummed in agreement.
"Okay, thanks guys... I have no idea what I was thinking. I shouldn't be doubtful like that." You said, more confident. "I'm going to see him right now, actually."
You got up and walked out the door, and on the way out, you heard Sasha yell 'GET SOME!'
You got to the room you knew all too well, his pristine office, and entered without knocking because you knew that for you, it wasn't necessary. But when you walked in, what you saw suprised you.
You saw Levi and Juniper kissing. You freezed for a second, before slamming the door shut again, and running back to the girls barracks, tears falling down your face.
Once again, you asked yourself, 'what is love?', not even having a vague guess anymore.

Rating - Banana Beer Review by Tony
The beer is very unique and flavorful, but the strong banana characteristics is not to my liking (yet?). The fruitiness is softening with age, and is growing on me somewhat, but I'm not looking forward to drinking 5 gallons of this. Fortunately, others like it a lot, and it's a great beer to give to those looking for something new and different. (Posted on 5/18/14) - Wyeast 3068 gets aggressive! Review by Bradley
Let me first say that this is/was my first 5gal batch, having just moved up from 3 batches of mr. beer kits.
I went with the Wyeast 3068 after reading the reviews here. It came in a smack pack, which took quite a few smacks because I didn't want to accidentally pop the whole bag at first. The pack was completely ballooned in about 2 hours. I pitched after about 3 hours.
Woke up the next morning and had steady bubbles coming through the airlock. Came back from work that day and the airlock was getting overwhelmed. I watched as it started to get clogged up. Since this was my first batch, I didn't know how to set up a blow off tube. Originally, I took the 6' tube that connects to the auto siphon and taped it to the top of the airlock, with it ending in a pot half full of sanitizer water. That didn't last long because the weight of the tube was pulling the airlock to the side and the tape wasn't working for various reasons as well. So I just took the airlock off and put the tube straight into the bung. That worked out well, and I'll probably do that for now on. The blow off setup was only needed for another 24 hours at most, but I left it for 2 or 3 days to be safe. After that, I cleaned the airlock and continued with that.
I kept in primary a total of 18 days, but it could have been bottled much sooner. Maybe even as early as 8 or 9 days. I was hoping the banana aroma would punch me in the nose, but it was moderate. That might have to do with my inconsistent fermentation temperature. I ended up with 4.5 gallons, 1 of which I am aging/conditioning (maybe with orange peels). 3.5 gallons should be ready for drinking in about a week. (Posted on 4/26/14) - Delicious Review by Chandler

*Slightly updated*
I prolly won't have time to do full blown colored artworks (you can ask for color, if I can I may do it)
Anyhoo, these are my commission rates:
Character lineart : $75 +- , can be more or less depending on the complexity/details, I prefer to draw females more than males btw ;d ,
Mecha/scifi lineart : $150 +- , can be more or less depending on the complexity/details, original or existing designs, etc,
Simple portrait/bust digital painting : $125 + , can be more or less depending on the complexity/details,
example something like , chest/shoulder up pretty much XD
Other stuff : contact me and we can discuss :d
Additional Info :
I'll do a prelim sketch/drawing and let you check if you wanna change anything, then I'll continue and finish it. We could still change some minor bits then, but no more major changes
The commission rate is just for personal use only. For other/commercial purposes, just let me know, we can discuss of course
I retain the copyright of the artwok I did, can use it on my portfolio, and can post it on DA, unless agreed otherwise.
I keep the original artwork, I'll send you the high resolution jpeg/png/tif once the payment is made.
* Also I'd prefer no/ no tight deadline if possible, I'll try to finish within 2 to 3 weeks, it's being done on my free time after all
* If you have deadline, we can discuss first I guess (I'll probably charge per hour rates)
Payment : paypal only, maybe bank transfer if you're in Singapore?
first time commissioners will have to pay upfront, repeat/long time commissioners can pay half/half or after the artwork is done
I don't do free commission, so don't ask!

Eve Weldon, a newly hired writer for a morning news show, is struggling to recreate the fabulous life her mother had in Greenwich Village in the 1960s. But Eve has few friends, trouble finding love and a ghost living in her apartment. And it's not the type of ghost that slams doors and tries to scare her away. No, instead it is the ghost of an almost, could-have-been famous Beat writer who demands Eve write his stories.
From the screenwriter who brought you Fanboys comes a debut novel with more 80s references than one person can handle. Ready Player One takes place in the not too distant future. This is a much bleaker future, where most of the world's population is now plugged into the virtual reality world of OASIS. Cline's book follows Wade Watts and his OASIS avatar as he tries to solve the riddles left behind by the creator of OASIS. This riddles will unlock a vast fortune and many obstacles stand in Wade's way, not the least of which is the abilit
Connie Willis adds a seventh Hugo Award to her list of accomplishments with this diptych. Continuing a theme developed in The Doomsday Book and To Say Nothing of the Dog, Willis imagines a near future (2060) in which Oxford University historians conduct field work by traveling into the past. The past in these two books (which are actually one story) is London during WWII.
Chester's Mill, Maine finds itself suddenly and inexplicably cut off from the outside world when a 20,000 foot high transparent dome descends from out of nowhere. Who created this situation and why are only two of the questions the increasingly desperate denizens of this beleaguered town have to address as King spins a yarn full of unlikely heroes, monstrous pretenders to power and nefarious doings beyond the known universe. Mayhem rules. But so does redemption. A fast paced tale populated with a great cast of characters both good and evil.

This book provides a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes of many classic movies via the memos of producer David O. Selznick. A notorious micromanager, Selznick had plenty to say about casting, costumes, dialog and every other aspect of a film's creation. Of course Gone with the Wind, his greatest success, is covered thoroughly, but there are plenty of other movies, including Rebecca, Duel in the Sun, David Copperfield, and people, Alfred Hitchcock, Jennifer Jones (his mistress then wife) that are given their due.

Millennial News Feed
Quote of the Day: "When looking for a significant other, it's important to me that they are open minded and an independent thinker." –Male, 15, CA
Constant internet access via smartphones helped created the issue of cyberbullying, but could it also help to end it? New app Stop!t was created by a concerned dad to make it quick, easy, and effective for kids to anonymously report any bullying incident they see on social media. Previous digital efforts to fight cyberbullying required multiple steps in order to file a report, but Stop!t will allow students to report bullying with a single click, even if the app isn't open. The app has been tested in several schools, and seen positive results so far, with one school reporting an 80% reduction in cyberbullying incidents compared to the previous year. (Fast Company)
Snapchat has an important message for its young users: "keep your clothes on!" 53% of 13-17-year-olds use Snapchat, according to Ypulse's most recent social media tracker survey, and the app has long battled a reputation as a sexting haven. New community guidelines recently posted by the app are serving as a gentle, but stern reminder for minors to "Keep it legal." Team Snapchat is trying to pull in the reigns on inappropriate sharing, threats, bullying, and invasions of privacy, and violating the rules could result in content removal, suspension, or being banned from the app. (New York Daily News, Snapchat)
Will marketing healthy foods using the same tactics as unhealthy products get young consumers to eat them? The Partnership for a Healthier American and Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" campaign are going to find out. They're launching an effort that rebrands fruits and vegetables as "FNV," uses celebrities like Jessica Alba and Cam Newton as spokespeople, and relies heavily on social media to convince kids that healthy is cool. While undoubtedly a worthy cause, the campaign's success is uncertain and has been described as "cringeworthy." (brandchannel)
"C'mon get happy" seems to be the motto of big brands in 2015, as they focus on messages of positivity and joy to appeal to young consumers. One recent study says brands that "help Millennials achieve happiness" are the most likely to earn their loyalty. McDonald's Pay With Lovin', Coke's #MakeItHappy, and Dove's #SpeakBeautiful campaigns are recent examples of campaigns attempting to engage with positive messaging, but brands who want to follow suit should remember young consumers will see through any "hollow" attempts that tell them just buying a product will make them happier. (Adweek)
Young viewers maybe be drawn to digital video because they find online stars and content more "enjoyable and relevant to their lives" than traditional TV and Hollywood A-listers. A new study by Defy Media—who it should be noted produces content for YouTube—found that 62% of 13-24-year-olds say digital content makes them "feel good," compared to 40% who said the same of TV; and 67% say they can relate to digital content, versus only 41% who relate to TV. YouTubers also hold a high power of purchase: 63% said they'd try a product recommended by a YouTube celebrity. (Variety)
The Daily Instant Poll gives you a quick snapshot of how Millennials are weighing in on the topics that are making headlines, but there's more to our mobile network of 2 million Millennials than what makes the newsletter. Ten of our most recent featured Instant Poll results are available to Ypulse.com Silver and Gold subscribers, allowing them to compare the responses of various demographics. (Ypulse)

-The butt-kissing answer is the PS2 game 'Blowout' from Majesco Games.
Truth be told, though, most of my favorites are of the 8-bit variety and change with my mood. But for now? Final Fantasy, the original, for the NES. lobo_hacker, slightly upset he missed the good prices on the TTT baseball boxes |

Current Time
Oslo shines brightest in summer (June to August), when the high temperatures average 71 degrees F and the city is bathed in almost constant daylight—ideal conditions for sightseeing. Winter (November to April) can be cold (with highs in the 30s) and dark but great for skiing—there's plenty of snow on the nearby slopes.
The beautiful Oslo Airport Gardermoen is located about 29 miles north of the city (Edvard Munchs veg, Gardermoen; 47-64-81-20-00; www.osl.no). Sandefjord Airport Torp is about 68 miles to the south, near Skien and Tonsberg (130 Torpveien; 47-33-42-70-00; www.torp.no). Cab rides from the airports to the city vary according to time of day, number of passengers, and destination, but a standard fare to the city center can cost upwards of $113 for the 50–minute trip from Gardermoen and $312 for the hour and 45–minute ride from Sandefjord (www.oslotaxi.no/upload/Priser%20og%20takster/Oversettelse%20Airport%20Taxi.pdf). For a quicker and cheaper ride from Gardermoen, try Flytoget, the airport express train. The trip takes about 20 minutes to Nationaltheatret or Oslo Central Station and costs $28; trains leave every ten minutes (47-81-50-07-77; www.flytoget.no). The Torp Express bus from Sandefjord leaves every half hour, costs $26, and takes approximately an hour and 45 minutes.
Continental Airlines flies direct (about 7 1/2 hours) from New York to Oslo (800-231-0856; www.continental.com). Connecting flights are available on Brussels Airlines, British Airways, and Scandinavian Airlines (SAS)/United; with one connection, the trip takes approximately 11 hours from New York City. From Chicago, Newark, and Seattle, SAS flies to Oslo daily via a connection in Copenhagen (800-221-2350; www.flysas.com).
The best way to appreciate the city and take in the 19th-century architecture is on foot. The public transportation system—subways, buses, and trolleys (or trikken)—runs from 5:30 am until after midnight. On weekends, certain routes offer night service. Tickets for destinations within the city include a one-hour free transfer, but you'll often save money by purchasing a dags kort, or day card, for unlimited travel.
The Oslo Card (available from tourist offices, hotels, and newsagents) enables you to travel by public transportation within four different zones, including some ferry and boat routes, and also grants free entry to most museums (www.visitoslo.com/en/the-oslo-pass.49104.en.html).

China's role in Africa seems to a subject of almost limitless interest − especially when it comes to ideas of large-scale resource extraction. Evoking images of another imperial struggle for dominance on the continent, much debate focuses on the perception of China being in the driving seat in its dealings with African governments. And, particularly in the American press, Chinese policy is often portrayed as 'locking up' access to crude supplies, making it increasingly difficult for private Western companies, with their different business models, to acquire oil security in a world of increasing demand.
Luke Patey's intricately researched book, The New Kings of Crude, aims to correct some of these Western stereotypes of China and its ambitions in Africa − specifically the oil rich nations of Sudan and South Sudan. Patey's mastery of the subject is clear and, despite the proliferation of international conferences and media debates over China's role in Africa, this long-form analysis is a welcome addition to a surprisingly empty bookshelf on the subject.
Patey's book begins in 1984 when a group of southern Sudanese rebels in Unity State attacked the Rubkona base camp which had been set up by the US multinational energy corporation Chevron in the 1970s. Three workers died in the incident, which seemed to have been a bungled stunt gone wrong and which had rapidly escalated into horror on that dark, malarial night. The Rubkona attack is a stark reminder of both the deep-rooted nature of the current conflict in South Sudan and the extraordinary risks international oil companies take to secure oil concessions.
The book goes on to tell the story of pioneering contractor Brian Kay who took on the challenge of prospecting for resources in Chevron's enormous half a million square kilometre concession, much of which was dominated by the Sudd, a huge swamp formed by the White Nile basin. Patey describes machines with names such as the Ty-Ty Tiger and the Lily-chopper, which were flown in by helicopter to allow the crews to work on the wetlands, though Chevron's dreams in the end amounted to nothing. In 1992, the company pulled out of Sudan after 20 years and $1 billion of investment without ever having drilled a drop − a consequence of the continual threat of insecurity and disruption.
In 1995, the Chinese stepped into Chevron's shoes and used the US oil company's geological maps and basic infrastructure to help them get started in production which would eventually yield over 400,000 barrels per day. The New Kings of Crude details the rapid development of the pipeline infrastructure to transport the oil from Bentiu and Unity states in the south to an oil terminal at Port Sudan in the north. The legacy of this arrangement is ever present in the complex situation today. In 2012, shortly after the south seceded to become South Sudan, arguments over what it should pay to Khartoum in transit fees for the oil caused a shut-down in production. Furthermore, South Sudan's President Salva Kiir seems determined to break its reliance on north pipelines by constructing a new pipeline to Lamu on the Kenyan coast.
Rather than paint a picture of the China National Petroleum Company (CNPC) as omnipotent and in full control of its own destiny in Sudan, Patey tells a rather more nuanced story of inter-dependence between the company and the Sudanese government. He also reflects upon the almost unknown history of Indian national oil companies in Sudan and describes in detail how the CNPC was indelibly affected when five of its workers were kidnapped and killed by disaffected Misseriya fighters in the so-called '10.18' incident in 2008. Patey suggests that the experience greatly shaped the company's security practices and community liaison efforts.
The author further recounts how the CNPC came to feel the pressure from a divestment campaign launched by students in the US in response to the conflict in Darfur and China's perceived failure to criticise the actions of the Khartoum government. While these efforts ultimately had limited results, it did lead to other civil society campaigns against Chinese national oil companies investing in US markets. And this in turn arguably led former Chinese president Hu Jintao to break the sacred Chinese commitment to non-interference and urge Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir to find a resolution to the Darfur crisis on a visit to Khartoum in 2007.
With the ongoing crisis in South Sudan and the CNPC's current operational difficulties, it would have been preferable for Patey to include more focus on the unresolved issues relating to oil in Sudan's Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) in 2005 − which established the roadmap that led to South Sudanese independence − and the South's decision to secede in 2011.
In the book, there is also an occasional tendency to tell the story in a non-chronological way, which makes it difficult to discern exactly which events were the most crucial. Nevertheless, the book is written in a personable and character-driven style, making it accessible to the general reader and those with an academic interest. Its greatest strength, however, is that it provides a comprehensive history to the never-ending complexities of Sudanese politics which continue to dictate events to this day.

4 A pretty good seriesRockfan1973 | 04/08/2010 | See all Rockfan1973's reviews (155)The Key to time is one complete season of adventures for the Doctor, Romana and K9 mark two.The story kicks off as soon as the Doctor has departed Gallifrey at the end of The invasion of time when the TARDIS is intercepted by the White Guardian.The Guardian has a task for the Doctor, he is to find all six segments of a device known as The key to time - which can be used to stop the entire universe and correct any errors in time and space.The Black Guardian is desperate to seize the key for his own purposes and will do anything to acheive this.When the Doctor returns to the TARDIS after his meeting with the White Guardian his new assistant Romana (Mary Tamm) is waiting and both of them - with the new K9, begin the search for the six segments which are scattered all over the universe.Yes its a long serial but it is quite entertaining.
4 Brilliant boxset.andrew1237 | 31/05/2010 | See all andrew1237's reviews (76)The first four episodes were great, but the last two were very disappointing, the last one was too long and started dragging towards the end. i rate them out of these:THE RIBOS OPERATION: 9/10THE PIRATE PLANET: 8/10THE STONES OF BLOOD: 10/10THE ANDROIDS OF TARA: 7/10THE POWER OF KRULL: 3/10THE ARMAGEDDON FACTOR: 4/10
4 Solonpilotoos | 24/11/2009 | See all pilotoos's reviews (8)The six individual Key To Time stories were released on region 1 only in the early part of the century with hardly any extra features.It was then released as region 2 in late 2007.The 2007 release of all 6 episodes was actually 7 discs, The Armageddon Factor being split across two.
4 "sorry K9 - the holidays off!"bigal3000 | 31/03/2010 | See all bigal3000's reviews (55)6 adventures in one boxset - a complete season of Tom Baker!sent on an important mission by Colonel Sanders (sorry i just had to!) the 4th Doctor gains a new companion (the gorgeous Mary Tamm as a very regal Time Lady Romana a great contrast to Baker's bohemian eccentric Time Lord) and sets off on a series of exciting travels - including a script by Douglas Adamswhilst the idea of the quest for the Key to Time is a really epic sounding idea its really just an excuse for the Doctor and his friends to find themselves in trouble - something the series managed perfectly well up until now without the need for story arcs. while the quest idea starts well in 'Ribos Operation' with the TARDIS hijacked by the powerful White Guardian it fails to reach a satisfactory conclusion at the end of 'Armageddon Factor' - in fact its so rushed you wonder if they almost forgot to wrap things up!the individual stories themselves are entertaining stuff mixing monsters, technobabble, horror and comedic banter from alien planets to shadowy space stations via ancient stone circles and muddy swamps - classic Dr Who at its best without even a single Dalek in sight

District-based hardcore pioneers Scream haven't issued a studio album since "Fumble," which was released in 1993 but recorded years earlier. The band reunited in 2009, but "Complete Control Sessions," one in a series of releases tied to the Complete Control Radio show, is its first
album of new material since. It's as good a comeback vehicle as anyone might have hoped.
A seven-song EP recorded in Dave Grohl's studio (he's a longtime compatriot and, pre-Nirvana, a member), "Sessions" masters the tricky calculus of a punk-rock reunion: Sound the same as you used to, and it's sad; sound different, and you might as well not have bothered. Songs like "Jamin at 606," which seems to have been not so much recorded as shot out of a cannon, and the 1988-meets-2011 "Stopwatch" get the nostalgia/newness balance just right, paying homage to the band's past without cannibalizing it.
