One of the Best Games of 2012: Action- TouchArcade
Pocket Tactics' 2012 Action Game of the Year!
5/5 TouchArcade!
"The tortured, veiny world the art conjures and the surreal music it uses to bolster its paranoid sci-fi vibe are both riveting aspects that suck you into a surreal universe and doesn't let go."
8/10 Edge Magazine!
"God Of Blades enhances its glorious alien bloodshed with lavish presentation that blends the pulp sensibilities of paperback fantasy novels with the bizarre visions found on prog rock album covers."
A love-song to pulp fantasy tales of yore, 70s synth-prog-landscape oddities, and forgotten places, God of Blades is a gorgeous, visceral sidescrolling physics-based sword-fighting adventure.
See the trailer at http://www.whitewhalegames.com
Praise for God of Blades:
"Cripes. So many reasons to like this. The pulpy sci fi narrative, the prog rock lettering and album art backdrops, the spectral swordsmen and the fearsome sense of connection. God of Blades is pretty much glorious, basically." - Christian Donlan, Hookshot Inc.
"...we were reminded of Shadow of the Beast for some reason – probably because of the music and the setting... that's a very good thing."- Chris Priestman, IndieGameMag
"The White Whale Games crew has gone above and beyond demonstrating their devotion to stories and literature, and [Loreseeker] is one of the most creative and brilliant ways they could have possibly conceived to get people to go to those incredible repositories of human knowledge known as libraries." - Brad Hilderbrand, Gamezebo
"God of Blades is dripping with style" - Jim Squires, Gamezebo

I ran out of time with only 1 1/2 days allocated for dca last time. Spent less time then I planned at DL(nothing really new).
I could and probably will spend a full day at DCA. It's actually fairly easy to spend a whole day because the park hours are always shorter than Disneyland. 2-3 hours could be spend in Cars Land alone depending on what time of day you go.
DCA now usually operates on the same schedule minus on one hour. So if DL is open from 8am-12pm then DCA will be 8am-11pm
...um...they have to let me in.
really it is Cars land. I just feel so at home there for some reason I do not understand it's like comfort food I don't want to leave. Buena Vista Street also has some nice stores and I enjoyed looking in them.
There aren't enough rides for me. We're not parade people.
Personally, I think a lot of it has to do with emersion. Disneyland's had 50+ years to work on it's atmosphere to a real work of art, whereas I think DCA is still in the stages of trying to figure out a better atmosphere. Not just for certain areas of the park, but all areas. Bugs Land and Paradise Pier are fantastic with this, but something just seems to be missing from other areas of the park. I can't quite put my finger on it.
In any case, I think DCA will get there! They're working hard to fix this from when the park first opened, and I know they've been taking lots of notes to figure out what they need.
Speaking of Bugs Land, it would be nice if that area of the park would have more family-centered, or rather, an adjustment that all ages would love to go to. It mainly feels like a kiddy park for the little ones; which is nice, but I think it could be capable of more somehow.
Edit: I know CarsLand is also a major enviornment emersion, so don't think I wouldnt include that, haha
i have always spent a full day DCA... first day, disneyland all day, second day, DCA all day. any additonal days (3-5 or whatever) are usually spent park-hopping between the two. then again, i always liked DCA, i don't really get why it gets so much flack.
2-3 more E tickets, around 5-7 more GOOD A-C tickets to help dispers crowds, a cute affordable table service restaurant like carnation cafe, a better parade, Level PP or MAJORLY beautify it, and expand CL into remaining lot and bugs land.
I love the new BVS and Cars Land is an improvement (I also love Tower of Terror area and National parks area), but for a lot of areas of DCA it still lacks the magic, charm, and immersion of Disneyland.
You walk into Adventureland, Frontierland, New Orleans etc. and you are are transported and there is so much to do and see. There are large trees and waterfalls, flowers everywhere, a river and boats, a train circling the park, great music and theming and smells wafting through the air.
I agree with PP that I want to be immersed. I want to feel like I've stepped into a new land. I think DCA is moving in the right direction but there needs to be more. They need to do more with Condor Flats and the Hollywood area. I think they really missed the mark with the new Little Mermaid ride. When you look at the Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Indiana Jones, or Thunder Mountain you are transported. When you look at Little Mermaid... it is like a part of a mall. They took up too much space making something that is not an E ticket and is not pleasant to look at. I think they may eventually have to tear it down, and Goofy Sky School, and retheme that whole side of Paradise Pier. A couple more E-tickets would help DCA, too.
It is still not a full day park for our family at this time. Our kids beg to go back across the esplanade after a few hours.
It really needs about 3 more Fantasyland-style darkrides based on classic Disney properties. Little Mermaid was the right idea, if not a perfect execution, and it does open the door wide to non-California connected rides.
More slow rides. I don't like thrill rides, and there simply aren't enough slower rides for me to stay all day.
Plus, I'm pretty sure that I've missed some of the stuff that I'd enjoy simply because to me, it's not easy getting around in DCA. Oh, I can be on my feet all day, no problem, but it took me about a half-dozen visits before I found MuppetVision. And several others that I enjoy.
It seems like I can walk for a long time and get basically nowhere.
DL is just the opposite; if I walk for more than a minute or so in any direction, there'll be something I like.
DCA 1.0 I would spend at least half a day and be done (no nighttime spectacular) DCA 2.0 Easily a day and a half with the best show ever World of Color.
My family and I (a group of 14 or so) can spend a whole day at DCA but more likely than not we split both parks in a day. our vacations are usually a week long so maybe we feel more free to jump around. I think the biggest thing is shutting down paradise pier for world of color. The show is good but it doesn't need to be seen every trip. I'd rather ride rides. California screamin' is fun but the best time to ride a coaster is at night (ex. Matterhorn, thunder) so for me that's the most disappointing part. If there was a way to keep those rides open during the show I think it wouldnt clutter the people to the point where they feel forced to leave and go to disneyland.

Diamonds and crystal don't 'sparkle' unless incandescent?
Is it just me? Or are there parts of the EM spectrum that are missing such that diamonds and/or crystal don't "sparkle" in places that use non-incandescent light?
I'm still not over my 2-year-old diamond engagement ring. (Blushes.) I like to look at it in sunlight, at the theater, under incandescent lights, and basically just anywhere. I don't see the sparkliness under CFL's or LED's. Likewise with crystal chandeliers, which are prominent in public places. They seem not to cast the same colors and patterns under these conditions as they did when they were incandescent.
Is this a real effect, or is it the result of general cluelessness about lighting? I do know a bit about radiative transfer and the spectrum, by the way. Comes with being an astronomer.
It could be real. Incandescent filaments are more compact sources of light than fluorescent. Compared to fluorescent, the approach a point source.
You could argue that LEDs are very compact, but they are not if you have a mass of them in a "bulb". I think that he reflection and refraction of a point source is going to give you the highest impression of "sparkle". Put a piece of ground glass between your incandescent illumination and your rock and see what that does. That would probably approximate the difference between incandescent and CFL for that one characteristic. You can download the spectrum for common fluorescent lamps from manufacturers' web sites and the spectrum for incandescent bulb is available.
Thanks for the question. It makes me wonder what kind of light is used when trying to sell jewelry or crystal. Anyone know? I suspect it is an interesting facet of the lighting industry.
This may be true - incandescent/halogen lamps produce a broad, spikeless spectrum, but probably more important is to have lots of pinpoint light sources from all directions. Look upward at jeweller's display cases, and you'll always see a string of tiny incandescent bulbs or halogen pinlights. White LEDs are well suited for this use too because of their small size. The more angles the light hits the diamond, especially a clear, well-cut one, the more it sparkles with different colors that refract off the facets differently. Any diamond will look dull when illuminated by a single light bulb, even if incandescent.

Proposed Spanish law aims to make children 'behave'
From the land of Don Quixote, who famously tilted at windmills, comes another brilliant but possibly misguided idea: a law that will require children to do housework, without regard to gender.
Not only that, but the same bill – which has yet to be formally adopted – would also oblige children to behave toward their parents and siblings in a "respectful" manner, plus be obedient at school and also do homework without unnecessary complaining.
Known as the Child Protection Bill, the proposed law also includes a series of measures designed to keep children safe from sexual predators – hence its name – but it's the housework and homework provisions that seem to be getting most of the attention.
Unfortunately, there's a catch.
According to a recent report by the BBC, citing Madrid newspaper ABC, the bill does not include specific sanctions to be imposed upon youngsters who fail to comply with the prospective law's provisions – a shortcoming that might somewhat reduce its effectiveness should children figure this part out, which they inevitably will.
Still, you have to give the Spanish Parliament top marks for trying.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Biden won, but Ryan didn't lose
WASHINGTON — In the vice presidential debate, Joe Biden found a way to be both a participant and the guy in the Barcalounger at home yelling at the television. He interrupted Paul Ryan, moderator Martha Raddatz, and even himself with interjections, sighs and quips. He appealed to the heavens, he looked to the floor. With all the activity, he surely shed calories. When he wasn't engaged in those antics, Biden laughed and smiled to himself as if Ryan had sold him something illegal that he'd just consumed. At times his treatment was so dismissive, he seemed only a few threads of restraint from reaching across the table and patting Ryan on the head.
Biden won the debate, but it was a qualified victory. He energized Democrats who had been down in the dumps since the president's supine performance, but he also energized Republicans who found him rude and dishonest. Swing voters might have been turned off, too. But it probably doesn't matter since they're going to vote for the top of the ticket. It was close in the post-debate polls of undecided voters. It was close in the post-debate polls. In a CBS poll of undecided voters, 50 per cent thought Biden had won; only 31 per cent thought the same of Ryan. In the CNN poll, 48 per cent thought Ryan won. Only 44 per cent thought Biden came out on top.
There's an old line attributed to Bill Clinton: It's hard for the other guy to talk when your fist is in his mouth. Biden was up to his elbow. That thrilled Democrats. Speaking of himself, Barack Obama said that he was too polite in the first debate. No one will say that of Joe Biden.
Biden's performance was aimed at one thing: painting the Romney and Ryan agenda as a flim-flam operation. He did it with style as much as substance. Looking directly at the camera, he said, folks, follow your instincts, in the middle of an argument about whether Romney's tax plan added up. Before the debate, a Romney staffer had said one of the things that had worked well for the GOP nominee a week ago was that while voters may not have understood his policy ideas, he sounded like he understood them, which gave viewers confidence in the candidate. Biden was trying to make the same kind of transference. If he could convey exasperation and frustration with Ryan's lack of specificity, the plans that didn't add up, and the broader claims from the Republican team, perhaps he'd be able to make people doubt the entire Republican enterprise.
Biden hit the thesaurus hard. He blurted out that Ryan was offering malarkey. At one point, he referred to a Ryan riff as a bunch of stuff. He called out a bizarre statement and several times talked about loose talk and slipshod claims. (What? No hokum?)
The audience for the Biden routine was the middle class. As expected, Biden brought up the secretly recorded video tape in which Romney wrote off 47 per cent of the country as dependents and moochers. These people are my mom and dad — the people I grew up with, my neighbors, said Biden, at the start of an extended riff defending everyday middle-class Americans. Ryan responded with his own number, 10 per cent, which is the unemployment rate in Scranton, Pa. He then blew that fact into a more extended argument about the lousy Obama economy. That argument then pivoted to a defence of Romney, which included a great story about how the Republican nominee paid the college bills of a man in his church whose children had been paralyzed in a car crash. The exchange was like much of the debate: Biden was defending the middle class, while Ryan was defending Romney.
Biden hammered Ryan's plan to change Medicare and pointed out that the next president would appoint justices to the Supreme Court that could limit abortion rights. On international affairs, though Biden floundered on Libya, he pressed Ryan on Iraq and Afghanistan, questioning effectively whether the logical conclusion of Romney's aggressive stance toward Iran and Afghanistan meant a deeper military commitment to conflict. The last thing we need is another war, said Biden.
Biden's greatest asset was his passion. Though he might have been over the top, it was possible for a viewer to conclude that he was simply passionate about the middle class. That is something President Obama will not easily duplicate if he hopes to use Biden's performance as a teaching tool for his outing next week. Biden looked like he wanted to be there. Obama will have to find a way to access some measure of that emotion.
Emotion doesn't work for all things. Indeed, the debate began with a question about the attack on American diplomats in Libya, where the administration is losing credibility by the news cycle. The Ryan team knew the Libya question would be asked first. They had prepared to make an over-arching claim about Obama's penchant for blaming others. This week, a senior official in the Obama campaign suggested that the Libya issue had become politicized because Romney and Ryan had pushed it. They first blamed the YouTube video. Now they're trying to blame the Romney-Ryan ticket for making this an issue, said Ryan. The goal was to make a larger claim: that Obama has run out of ideas, so he and his team are only able to offer excuses. Ryan's execution wasn't great, but things are not going so well in Obama-land that all the smirking and cockiness are warranted. As the economy improves (or people start to think it's improving), the Romney camp may need to rely on a broader argument about Obama's incompetence.
Biden tried to turn Ryan into Dan Quayle. Ryan didn't fit the mold. He had done his homework and held his own, defending his Medicare plans and insisting that the economic growth created by reducing tax rates would allow Romney to keep his budget promises. Republicans won't be depressed the way Democrats were after Obama's weak performance. Ryan did not give a particularly fabulous articulation of the Romney plan for the middle class, but that's the candidate's job. (Neither man talked much about plans for the future — except in the context of defending their plans against the other man's attacks.) Ryan also did not answer questions about specifics, which is an issue that still dogs the campaign.
The worst moment for Ryan was when he had to own up to the two letters he wrote asking for stimulus funds. Biden painted Ryan as a phony, railing against the stimulus on the one hand and asking for money on the other. This is the larger Obama narrative on Romney-Ryan. But Biden calling Ryan out as a stimulus hypocrite didn't feel like a moment that people will remember. (It would have helped if he had the letters, but the debate rules forbid any visual aids.) If the Obama camp can ever find an example that sticks, it will reinforce their broad claim against Romney and his running mate.
Biden's performance was good for the home team, but spectators won't be talking about it days from now. He didn't mint a line that will live on, but Democrats didn't need that. They know all the lines. They just wanted to hear someone from their team say them.

This story has been what I imagined in my head all along. I praise you for every single word in this work of art. Congratulations, my friend. You have just made my absolute favorite story in Glimmer's POV.
What makes it even greater is the realization that dawns on her at the end. The fact that Clove was the one who mattered to Cato all along.
Absolute perfection. You should be so proud.

| Orange Pudding chapter 1 . 5/9/2012
This is awesome and you did an amazing job portraying Glimmer's character and Cato/Clove through her point of view.
You should consider writing Cato/Clove longer story, not just one-shot. I'd be happy to read it. :)
And I found Cato/Glimmer in the movie so weird. :( I wish they included the scene that Cato ran to Clove and begged her to stay with him. It's so strange that Cato and Clove had really no interaction in the movie. Cato was like talking to Glimmer all the time he was in the arena and she was sleeping on his arm before she died.

Really loved it, great insight into the characters, well written :)

It was great... i was also disappointed when they didn't show the moment when cato kneels beside clove, and the whole glimmer/ cato thing was also bothering me, but anyways, i thought it was great, even if i think you got a little overboard but it was still awesome..

ceramic buisness
We bought a ceramic buisness and have just now started firing. Does anyone here do ceramics and have some suggestions on which molds to buy and what slip recipe they use? Firing tips? We would like to eventually make this our day job. We also aquired a lot of glazes with this purchase and we prefer to use stains and painting, is there anything we could do with the glazes? We are talking lots of glazes. Thanks Norma
Hi Norma... I wish you the best of luck with your new business.
You prefer stains and paint over glazes? Do you fire the pieces after they're stained and painted? Just curious. I've only used glaze.
This isn't a very active board... I'm always hoping a few experts will drop in to answer the posted questions.
You'll probably figure it all out within the first few weeks of working with the supplies you've purchased.
Hmmmmm...... then YOU will be the expert this forum needs :)
Norma, I don't make it into this board very often so you may have already figured out what to do with the glazes. You could try running an ad to see if anyone wanted to purchase them. I would just call a school to see if I could donate them if I were you.
Hi, Norma: I am a hobby ceramics person and I only use paints and glazes that can be fired. That said, the couple that own the business that I buy my greenware from get most of their business from the local schools and colleges.
You might want to invite some of the craft teachers over to see what you have already in the way of molds. Have a bisque sample ready for them to see. My friends get orders for 50 of this and 100 of that when the teachers call them each year. It would be a good steady outlet for you but you would have to charge a price they could afford.

Humanoids from the Deep(1980)
Something horrendous is happening in the sleepy fishing village of Noyo. An aquaculture experiment has gone very wrong and the results-fish-like humanoids- are rising from the sea to spawn their vengeance.
For more about Humanoids from the Deep and the Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray release, see Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray Review published by Martin Liebman on August 2, 2010 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.0 out of 5.

Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray Review
Off the deep end.
Reviewed by Martin Liebman, August 2, 2010
We have no idea how many there are.
Humanoids From the Deep is easily one of the most frustrating of all the Roger Corman-produced New World Pictures films. Here's a movie with no rhythm, little focus, a mangled plot, a haphazard script, inconsequential characters, and a terrible climax. Corman's pictures aren't exactly beacons of all that's good in the cinematic medium; his films tend towards the exploitative, capturing grotesque visuals and naked female bodies while usually made on the cheap and targeted to the drive-in audiences of the 1970s and 1980s. Many have since become cult classics for one reason or another -- justifiably so -- and most at least deliver focused stories, even if the nudity and violence sometimes seem wrenched into the plot. That notion of force-fed exploitation is taken to the extreme with Humanoids From the Deep, the picture one that's seemingly of two distinct styles, ideas, and stories. Director Barbara Peeters' cut was deemed too tame, and Roger Corman ordered the film retooled to include more of his trademark elements into the final product; many of the more hardcore elements -- particularly the creature-on-girl rape scenes -- were completed by a different director. It's a formula for disaster, and indeed, it certainly does no favors for Humanoids From the Deep, an admittedly fun but structurally-impaired picture that just doesn't capture that Roger Corman magic.
The salmon have disappeared from the local waters off the shore of the small fishing community of Noyo. After a troller is destroyed under suspicious circumstances and the local canine population turns up not only dead but grotesquely mangled, tensions rise and warring factions fall into verbal conflict. That't nothing compared to the true threat that Noyo's about to face. The town's real enemy turns out to be mutated sea monster humanoids with a knack for murder and a ravenous sexual appetite for the town's young female population. When teenagers start disappearing or turning up dead, the town falls into disarray; it's revealed that there may be a connection between the disappearing salmon and the scientific community's efforts to reinforce that population, but the slow going on the high seas, empty nets, dwindling bank accounts, and in-fighting amongst the townsfolk soon become afterthoughts when the humanoids from the deep ramp up their attacks and threaten to tear the town apart.
Humanoids From the Deep is a picture of stark contrasts that's defined by and culminates with a visually confused, boring, and tripe finale that seems fitting considering how random the film feels during its first two acts. Humanoids cant seem to decide if it's a small-town-in-turmoil Drama or a completely insane exploitation flick, so what does it do? It tosses both elements into blender to produce its third act. The picture's first two acts are predominantly defined by Drama with only hints of what's to come, but while the movie establishes the town-in-turmoil plot, it randomly cuts to teenagers being slaughtered or raped by the creatures and goes back to the in-fighting and dramatic elements that make up the bulk of the picture. The sudden transitions from drama to exploitative ultra-violence seem as jarring as the injection of vampires into From Dusk Till Dawn, but Robert Rodriguez handles his topsy-turvy material far better and to the point that it only improves his movie. Humanoids From the Deep, however, feels like two completely different films spliced together and with a final act that haphazardly integrates the two in hopes of building some cohesion and a coherent story. Unfortunately, it just doesn't work.
Otherwise, there are a few things to like about this Roger Corman picture. It's plenty gory and gratuitously sexy without going overboard Forbidden World style. Even if the plot can't find its footing, the visuals are built on a strong foundation that supports the right balance between violence and sex, and while there's not much humor in the film, it does play with an ever-so-slight wink-and-a-nod that asks its audience to just sit back and enjoy the ride; after all, who could possibly take seriously slimy green creatures taking advantage of nubile young girls who just so happen to lose their tops in every scene? Speaking of the creatures, they look rather good; Humanoids hails from the pre-CGI era (thankfully saving viewers from more ScyFy-like bad special effects) and while it's obvious that the creatures are but actors in costumes, the costumes look great with plenty of slime and seaweed adding to that Creature From the Black Lagoon motif (and no doubt hiding things like seams and zippers and buttons). The picture's gore is nicely realized, too, and adding the finishing touches is an early score from James Horner (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Glory, Field of Dreams) that's a nice complimentary piece to the film and strongly supportive in building the atmosphere in several well-done scenes that look like they could be straight out of a John Carpenter movie.
Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray, Video Quality
Humanoids from the Deep's 1080p transfer is the best yet to come from Shout! Factory's Roger Corman Blu-ray releases. Like the other Corman titles, this one's littered with some excess noise, crushed blacks, random lines, dirt and debris, blooming, a few soft elements, and a bit of banding, but none of it, save for the noise, appears with any kind of excess. Given the picture's age, cheap production, and the like, it's a bit easier to dismiss the problems found about the transfer, particularly considering that some of them actually enhance the film's drive-in appeal while the image as a whole still benefits from the Blu-ray boost. Indeed, colors and details are surprisingly strong in many places; the opening minutes on a fishing boat feature nicely-rendered rusty and weathered surfaces while also capturing the nuances of the wooden deck and the trinkets scattered about the ship. Several exterior scenes come alive with nicely-detailed sand and dirt terrains and foliage. Colors are surprisingly steady and vibrant in many scenes, too, even if they do fade a bit in a few places, notably around some of the softer shots in the film. Humanoids From the Deep certainly doesn't stand toe-to-toe with some of the best of the new releases-turned-Blu-ray, but all things considered, this is a top-notch transfer from Shout! Factory.
Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray, Audio Quality
Like Piranha, Humanoids from the Deep features a messy but adequate PCM 2.0 soundtrack. There's not much to this one; it's center-focused and rarely features any distinctive elements off to the sides. It's an ear-piercing track that's too loud at normal listening levels, and even though it's never lacking in volume, it wants for the crispness and spaciousness of better tracks, even those of the 2.0 variety. There are a few pops scattered about the track, while screams, music, and some dialogue sound shrill and indistinct. Several sound effects -- a ringing telephone, a few gunshots -- are also absent clarity and play instead like canned tape-recorded effects. Still, the track more often than not chugs along well enough; there are some jarring elements that will have listeners lamenting the absence of a more refined presentation, but things never get so bad as to ruin the experience.
Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray, Special Features and Extras
Humanoids from the Deep's Blu-ray release sports a rather short assortment of extras compared to Shout! Factory's other Roger Corman high definition releases. First up is The Making of 'Humanoids From the Deep' Featuring New Interviews with Roger Corman, Second Unit Director James Sbardellati, Actress Linda Shayne (Miss Salmon), Composer James Horner, and Many More (1080i, 22:42). As it's described, this is an interview piece that looks back on the production through cast and crew interviews and clips from the film. The discussions include Director Barbara Peeters' take on the film; the absence of exploitative elements in her cut; the lack of thrills and scares; the cast and crew's displeasure with the final product; the elements such as music, editing, and special effects that enhance the picture; the design of the creature suits; the demanding nature of a Roger Corman production; the role of women in Roger Corman films; and much more. This is a very strong, informative, and entertaining supplement that's more interesting and worthwhile than the movie; it's a must-see companion to Humanoids From the Deep.
Leonard Malting Interviews Roger Corman on the Making of the Film (480p, 3:26) features the famed producer and the longtime critic discussing the picture. Also included is a series of "never-before-seen" deleted scenes (1080p, 7:19); a radio spot advertising the film (1080p, 0:32); a TV spot (1080p, 0:32); a poster and still gallery (1080p); the Humanoids From the Deep trailers (480p) in English (1:47) and German (1:43); and additional 480p trailers for Galaxy of Terror, Forbidden World, and Up From the Depths. The case features reversible cover art and a full-color eight-page booklet with an introduction from Roger Corman and the essay "Half Man, Half Fish, All Good!" by Michael Felsher.
Humanoids from the Deep Blu-ray, Overall Score and Recommendation
Humanoids from the Deep is a disjointed and disappointing entry into the Roger Corman catalogue. It lacks a coherent structure and flow and can't seem to decide what in the world it is or wants to be. It's got all the hallmark elements of classic Corman exploitation rubbish, but the absence of stronger pacing and purpose -- even considering a third-tier film like this -- is too much for it to overcome. There's some nifty creature effects and gore to be found, though, not to mention a few decently intense scenes supported by a good early score from James Horner, but ultimately, Humanoids From the Deep sinks far more often than it swims. On the plus side, Shout! Factory's Blu-ray delivers a strong 1080p transfer, a midlevel soundtrack, and a nice but rather limited array of extras. Corman completists will want to pick this one up, but genre fans unfamiliar with the film would be smart to rent before committing to a purchase.

- Bandi Scarab
A powerful gaming computer with a mean look
- The "Bandi Scarab" is a PC I've been dreaming to make since I saw the Lian Li Spider PC-T1RThe "Bandi Scarab" is a PC I've been dreaming to make since I saw the Lian Li Spider PC-T1R Test Bench Case one day browsing through the internet looking for a cool PC to make for myself. Since I needed a PC that had more space hard drives, add-on cards and such I spent my money on a X-Clear Acrylic Case to make my first computer rig for work the "Morcilla" (more on that one in another post). After that I always kept thinking about this build and what would make it look even cooler. Little by little I kept finding better parts for it, though I wasn't ready to purchase the whole thing. Comes christmas and I get the Lian Li Spider case as a present, so what now? I ordered the rest of the parts, the first parts as you will see in the picture has the motherboard, CPU and memory that were migrated to the Thermaltake Lanbox Lite VF600BWS - Bandi Box PC (more on that one in another post). So without further ado, I give you the specifications of the completed BANDI SCARAB:
1. Case - Lian Li Spider PC-T1R Test Bench Case - This is the red spider, I believe Lian Li stopped making this specific color now, I'm not 100% sure on that but I haven't seen it available lately.
2. Motherboard - ASUS M4A88T-I Deluxe - This was the most powerful AM3 mini itx at the time of purchase. It has the 880g North Bridge with the AMD SB710 South Bridge. DDR3 1600, Sata 3g, RAID with ATI Radeon HD 4250, though it only support 95w TDP. Also it has integrated bluetooth and wifi.
3. CPU - AMD Phenom II X2 555 Retail HDZ555WFGMBOX - Factory 3.2Ghz, OVERCLOCKED to 3.6Ghz (cannot unlock cores because when I do its power consumptions rises to 125W and the board only holds 95W :(
4. Heatsink - Thermaltake DuOrb - features 2 fans that cool the CPU while acting as the spider's eye. The CPU and heatsink are put together using an Artic Silver 5 thermal compound.
5. Memory - Kingston HyperX - Memory - 4 GB(2 x 2 GB) - SO DIMM 204-pin - DDR3 - 1600 MHz / PC3-12800 - CL9 - 1.5 V - unbuffered - non-ECC
6. SSD - OCZ 60 GB Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5-Inch (SSD) OCZSSD22VTXE60G - here I installed the operating system and its program files
7. HDD - Seagate Momentus 7200.4 320 GB 7200RPM SATA 3Gb/s 16MB Cache 2.5 ST9320423AS - in this one I put all my personal files such as documents, music, pics and videos.
8. PSU - OCZ Fatal1ty 550W Modular Gaming Power Supply - the reason I chose this one is purely based on that it glowed red, its powerful and since its modular I don't have all the cables dangling.
9. ODD - Sony Optiarc AD-7690H DVD-RW MULTI - internal - 5.25" Slim Line - this one is slot loading because the other ones would just interfere with the design so a slot loading makes it look more lively when they come out.
Other accesories include: a 3.5" to 2.5" HDD bracket by Bytecc, a Tripp Lite P562-001-45L DVI Dual Link 45deg Left, 1Ft Extension Cable and a Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 v3.
Well now when you take a look at the pictures below, the first one (top) will the the newest photo which is when it had the other motherboard I put on the other computer build "Bandi Box". Follow the pictures to see how it ends up. Also, note that almost all cables are hidden, the receiver for the keyboard and mouse is hidden too, though the only cable you might see is the angled DVI cable (which is the best one I could find on the market). Aside from that the white things that hang underneath it that look like teeth, are actually the 2 WiFi antennas that came with the Asus motherboard, and just so you see how well things are hidden here, this PC has these accessories: 2.1 speaker system, HD webcam, printer, scanner and card reader.
So if you have any questions, feel free to ask... Oh! and I might add, that all my build (including this one) are up for sale. So ask me or give me an offer if you're interested.
