Recent Mahogany Run reviews
"We had a wonderful time on our 3 week vacation at this property. The views were breath taking, even more beautiful in person than what shows in the photos. The location of the property was perfect for us as it is a quiet area of the island, and the gated security made us feel very safe. The condo was clean, nicely decorated, and well stocked to allow for cooking our own meals, and had a private grill. The large supply of beach towels was really nice to have as we spent our days at the beaches on St Thomas and St Johns. All of the beaches were just beautiful but snorkeling was best at Coki beach, Secret Harbor, Salt Pond bay, and Water Lemon Cay. We saw octopus, sting rays, and Eagle rays besides lots of pretty fish and coral. Our favorite restaurants were The Green House downtown, Cup & Cork near our condo, and Simply Italian on the same property as Cup & Cork. I would definitely stay here again if we come back to USVI."Guest: Beach lover Date of Stay: January 2015 Review Submitted: March 8, 2015View listing
"The house & location were perfect. The views were spectacular! Although it's not right on the beach, the secured area was exactly what we were looking for on our all girls trip. House, rooms and beds were clean and well kept. I would highly recommend this property! Hope to return soon!"Guest: Angie L. Date of Stay: February 2015 Review Submitted: March 23, 2015View listing
"The view from this apartment was stunning. The apartment was very well equipped and the owner was very helpful in providing information prior to our stay. The apartment was clean and beautifully decorated. I know the area very well, but you do need a car if you want to go to the beaches and other attractions. I rented a car and had no problem driving on the left. If you play golf, this is a must. If you like to walk or run there are many areas within Mahogany Run where you can do that, and there is also a swimming pool. You can eat at the restaurant at the Golf Club, but if you want to go to other restaurants in St. Thomas you will need transportation. I would highly recommend this apartment and would stay there again."Guest: lana Date of Stay: November 2014 Review Submitted: December 9, 2014View listing
"A beautiful condo. It feels like someone's home, instead of a rental. All of the rooms are nicely decorated. The photos don't do the view justice. We saw one rainbow in the distance and another that looked like it was right outside of the apartment. This is also the first rental that I have stayed in that I was not hot during any point of the day. There is plenty of cross ventilation due to window next to the front door and the apartment being located on the side of a hill. The patio with the grill and table is also a huge plus. The condo is at the end of a long road, so it was very quiet. The Mahogany Run Grill and the Olde Stone Farmhouse are close and worth multiple visits. There is also Simply Italian and the sports bar across from it, located only 5 minutes away. Be sure to visit Magen's Bay Beach or Hull Bay Beach as a quieter alternative. The car ferry to St. John's to see Cinnamon Bay and Trunk Bay is definitely a must see. Skip the Mandahl Market and Cost U Save (more like a Costco with everything in bulk) and visit the Tutu Park Mall ten minutes away. It has a bank, Walgreens, Kmart, Subway, McDonalds, a gas station and Plaza Extra, which is a full grocery store like you would see in the States. I was surprised this was not mentioned in the welcome packet. I would return to this condo and would recommend it to friends."Guest: Andrew Date of Stay: December 2014 Review Submitted: January 7, 2015View listing

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Gay author no fan of Catholic Church
Pope Benedict XVI's sudden resignation earlier this year motivates the publication "on short notice" of this emotionally charged and often immoderate indictment of the former pontiff.
Vancouver author Daniel Gawthrop, who is gay, says he left the church because, under the spiritual leadership of John Paul II and Joseph Ratzinger -- later Benedict XVI -- the church "no longer wanted someone like me as a member."
Gawthrop is the author of four other books, including an autobiography and titles on environmentalism, AIDS and B.C. politics.
He identifies Ratzinger as "a kind of Satanic muse in my life." His account of Ratzinger's control in the church, especially as prefect of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, reflects personal disgust with beliefs and practices of Roman Catholicism. Many Catholics may take offence.
Under Pope John XXIII, the Second Vatican Council in the early '60s offered some reform to the church. Gawthrop's assertion that John "was determined to move the church away from Biblical literalism and toward a more pluralistic view of Catholicism" may be wishful thinking.
Still, Vatican II may have led to more openness about contraception and priestly celibacy.
Gawthrop identifies John Paul II and Benedict XVI, "both virulent anti-abortionists," as primary opponents of any such modernization.
The Trial of Pope Benedict begins and ends with wistful descriptions of Ratzinger being tried by the International Criminal Court. He was named in a complaint to the ICC by the Survivor's Network of those Abused by Priests "for command responsibility in the church's denial and cover-up of clerical sex abuse."
As the head of state of Vatican City, the Pope is diplomatically protected from prosecution. A retired pope could be subject to ICC jurisdiction.
While Gawthrop presents a damning account, his position is weakened by overstatement and sometimes startling invective.
Stating that he wrote the book "because Joseph Ratzinger destroyed the Roman Catholic church," Gawthrop describes him as "all-powerful," "God's Rottweiler," and a person with "flawlessly Machiavellian instincts," "lacking ... personal humility and empathy with the flock."
To his credit, Gawthrop does not blame Ratzinger for his involvement with Nazism, unavoidable for a German teen in the Second World War. Still, he cannot resist pointing out that Ratzinger was born 16 kilometres from Hitler's birthplace. He never specifies "the enormous implications it would have in his life."
John Paul II also suffers the author's disdain. The "right-wing pope" with "a little hate-on for Communism" was too "confused in his messaging" about liberation theology to provide "leadership on the issue."
Gawthrop admits that John Paul I, who died, perhaps suspiciously, soon after becoming pope, might be subject to "retroactive, romantic theorizing" about his papacy. As cardinal, he had criticized financial corruption in the Vatican.
The best part of this book, though it's been done before, discusses the shameful pedophilia of far too many priests, and the resulting coverups by Roman Catholic authorities.
Largely free of the book's earlier dismissiveness, the account includes a list of devastating stories of crimes and coverups authentically calling for punishment.
Benedict's successor, Francis I, has been presented as a man of the people, but Gawthrop points out that his own orthodoxy in doctrine differs little from that which dominated the last 35 years.
Gawthrop ends with five calls for action, two "conceivable... though unlikely" and three "admittedly the stuff of fantasy." They include convening Vatican III, really cleaning up the church hierarchy and abandoning Vatican statehood.
Manitoba teacher Bill Rambo is a practising Protestant who is inclined to celebrate the accomplishments of Christianity while acknowledging the humanity of Christians.

Indianapolis Religious Radio Host on Tim Scott: 'Black Only in Skin Color'
Tim Scott has been appointed to fill the South Carolina Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Jim DeMint and immediately the racebaiters jumped in with both feet to attack him. One of the early hatemongers was Amos Brown, a host on a religious radio station in Indianapolis, Indiana. Brown resorted to his Twitter account to claim that African American Tim Scott isn't really a black man.
It has been reported that South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley will appoint Tim Scott, an African American, to fill DeMint's seat. Scott is, of course, a Republican just like Governor Haley. All one need be is a black man in the GOP and the hatemongers come out in force with their racist name calling and radio host Amos Brown rose early to the rote attack.
On his Twitter account (@Amoswtlcindy), Brown wrote, "Gee, courtesy of S Carolina GOP, the nation gets Tim Scott an ultra-rightwing, Tea Party devotee US Senator who's Black only in skin color."
Mr. Amos Brown calls himself a man of God and works for AM 1310, "The Light," a religious station that caters to the African American community in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Brown has a grandiose description of himself on his Twitter account: "Radio Host,Media Mgr,Columnist,Servant/Leader,Demographer, Chronicler of Indy's communities, Grandfather, Institutional Memory."
South Carolina's Tim Scott is himself quite an interesting man. Not only did he beat Strom Thurmond' son in a South Carolina primary for Congress in 2010, but now he's about to ascend to the famous segregationist's own Senate seat!
In fact, this particular South Carolina Senate seat is a case study in the positive progression of the United States in race relations and equal rights. Thurmond was a famous Southern Democrat segregationist who once ran for president on a racist platform. He then renounced his racist ways and became one of the few racist Democrat "Dixiecrats" to switch to the Republican Party. And now an African American is joining the U.S. Senate in the same seat Thurmond once held. That is quite a progression toward the colorless nation that Martin Luther King had hoped for, isn't it?
Sadly we still have to overcome the segregationist impulses of racebaiters such as Amos Brown.

So it's of some relief to announce that sitting through Nacho Libre, the latest from Hess (and co-writers Mike White and Jerusha Hess, Jared's wife), isn't an entirely unpleasant experience, which is to say it doesn't feel as though it's worn out its welcome before the second reel. It takes slightly longer than that before its gears begin to slip and its jokes begin to wear and its laughs begin to fade; it's only 30 to 45 minutes too long, and therefore a marked improvement for a filmmaker who approached the medium with the attention deficiency of a TV sketch-comedy writer promising a premise that can't withstand the elasticity of a feature. Or maybe a little Jack Black goes a long way.
Black, tenacious in tight pants of various shades, plays the titular Nacho, a kid raised in a Mexican orphanage who dreams only of becoming a luchador, with a superhero's mask obscuring his round face in the wrestling ring. The entirety of the movie deals with his sneaking out of the orphanage, where he's a cook charged with doling out black-bean gruel topped with stale nacho remnants, to wrestle with a scrawny thief named Esqueleto (Héctor Jiménez). There is a love interest too--a nun named Sister Encarnación, played by Mexican soap opera star Ana de la Reguera, who looks so much like Paz Vega and Penelope Cruz, she completes the trinity of Latina Actresses Who Look Exactly the Same. She's the straight man who delivers one of the movie's genuinely, uproariously brilliant lines (it has to do with her favorite color).
And that, essentially, is the story, which means that, despite what the film's own publicity materials will tell you, Nacho doesn't wrestle to save the orphanage but merely to satisfy a childhood craving for fame, glory and the opportunity to grapple with masked men--some the size of mountains made of muscle, some the size of rabid dogs out for blood. There's nothing at stake except the boundless ego of Nacho, which means the movie lives or dies by its performances and its gags. Fair enough: Nobody goes to see a movie from the maker of Napoleon Dynamite expecting proselytizing social realism, after all. But Nacho Libre has the cheap, faded feel of something utterly disposable and entirely forgettable--like a movie made in the late 1970s or early '80s, dusted off and trotted out to make a little coin before going direct to home-video release.
One could easily mistake it for a parody of Rocky, down to its late-film appropriation of an iconic scene; it is to the Sly Stallone franchise what Top Secret! was to the spy-movie genre or Airplane! was to the disaster movie, a self-contained spoof in which every line's intended to elicit the giggle that propels the lumbering beast onward and upward. To that extent, Nacho Libre also recalls such dopey disposables as Meatballs (only without the emotional investment), The Jerk (without Steve Martin) and most of the better movies of Mel Brooks (without the film-history flashbacks). See it today and forget it tomorrow--that's the mantra of Nacho Libre, which has some memorable lines (most delivered by its supporting players, chief among them the so-skinny-he's-almost-transparent Jiménez) that want to be catchphrases, if only they didn't slip from your grasp.
The entirety of the endeavor rests on the flabby shoulders of Black, who spends almost the entire film jiggling his shirtless frame across the widest of screens; he rivals Will Ferrell in his desire to use his man tits to elicit cheap titters. Black, rested from his restrained performance against the green screens of King Kong, bounces back like he's been released from detention in the School of Rock (also written by Mike White) and allowed to roam the empty hallways without supervision. Nacho Libre plays like a Jack Black best-of, down to the song he writes and performs for de la Reguera that sounds like some Tejano version of Tenacious D throwaways. And he's morphed into another J.B. --John Belushi, who likewise acted with his eyebrows and bounced from side to side where most people merely walk forward. And where some might find his Mexican accent a tad offensive, it's so innocuous it plays like the tomfoolery of a child who doesn't know any better. Nacho's an idiot, no more and no less, because otherwise he'd disappear completely--like his movie, 20 minutes after you walk out of the theater.

during that year (NCCHC, 2002). More than 130,000 inmates tested positive for latent TB infection in 1997. An estimated 566,000 inmates with latent TB infection were released in 1996. More recent data (MacNeil et al., 2005) indicate that TB rates remain higher in prison systems than in the general population, and that prisoners with TB are less likely than noninmates to complete treatment. From 1993 to 2003, the percentage of TB cases among local jail inmates increased from 42.8 percent to 53.5 percent. Cases among federal inmates increased from 2.9 percent to 11.8 percent. Inmates with TB were more likely to be coinfected with HIV than noninmates with TB. Outbreaks of multidrug-resistant TB related to HIV coinfection have been documented in correctional facilities. The authors note: "Correctional systems, especially jails, offer distinct logistical obstacles to screening and treatment; inmates are moved frequently or are released, making evaluation and completion of therapy difficult at best."
Chronic diseases The National Commission on Correctional Health Care report (NCCHC, 2002) provided 1995 prevalence estimates for certain chronic diseases among federal, state, and local inmates: Asthma was estimated at 8 to 9 percent, diabetes at 5 percent, and hypertension at 18 percent. Figures on federal prisoners alone (BJS, 2001b) are somewhat lower: asthma at about 4 percent, diabetes at 4 percent, and hypertension at 8 percent. BJS (2001b) noted that inmate self-reported data may underestimate the prevalence of some medical conditions, especially those problems that require more sophisticated diagnosis and those that are more sensitive in nature. For many conditions, inmate self-reports are the only source of information.
Most state prison systems lack comprehensive and accessible data on the health status of their prisoners. A 1998 inventory of state and federal correctional information systems found that 20 states had electronic information systems that could identify offenders with physical disabilities at admission, 22 had systems that could identify inmates with mental or emotional problems, and 22 could identify inmates with specialized medical conditions. Eighteen states had this information electronically on current medical conditions for more than 75 percent of their inmates (BJS, 1998c).
Mental illness "Prisons are the largest mental health institutions in our country," stated Darrel A. Reiger, M.D., M.P.H., deputy medical director of the American Psychiatric Association, in his October 19, 2005, remarks to the committee. More than a quarter-million mentally ill individuals were incarcerated in a prison or jail at midyear 1998 (BJS, 1999a). In 1998, more than 179,000 offenders in state prisons, 7,900 in federal prisons, 96,700 in local jails, and almost 548,000 probationers were identified as mentally ill (Table 2-9). In this BJS survey, prisoners were counted as mentally ill if they

Ang "Those Hulk fans want your head on a stick" Lee has decided on his next film project. Lee is circling a big-screen adaptation of the epic love story "Brokeback Mountain" for Focus Features, says The Hollywood Reporter. The project is based on a short story by E. Annie Proulx and is being adapted by Proulx and "Lonesome Dove" author Larry McMurtry.
The project is an epic love story set against the sweeping vistas of Wyoming and Texas and centering on two young men — a ranch hand and a rodeo cowboy — who meet in the summer of 1961. Unexpectedly, the two forge a lifelong connection, with complications, joys and tragedies that provide a testament to the endurance and power of love. "Brokeback" was at one time being eyed by Gus Van Sant for Columbia Pictures to distribute but ended up under development at Good Machine when Sony's option expired. Former Good Machine partners David Linde and James Schamus now co-head Focus. "Brokeback" would keep Lee in the Universal fold as Focus is Universal's specialty arm. It also would mark the first project for the helmer that hasn't been penned by Schamus since 1995's "Sense and Sensibility."
In related news, Lee told WhatDVD magazine that he's not interested in directing the recently announced "Hulk" sequel. Thank God!

Oldtimer, wisdom is a virtue and irreplaceable! nice to have your astute offering and your pun was kinda cute.
Instant Karma's going to get you, gonna knock you off your feet.
Aside from the wisdom of John, you maybe should know a little about the Frost genes.
Personally, being somewhat of an old fart, having outlived all of my faimily, I find you to be contemptable. And for all you know, my dear asinine brother, you could die tomorrow.
Difference is, if Frost did, many charitable organizations would mark the day......you, not so much.
You said it, you wear it. And welcome to my ignrore bin. And as you go, you should maybe consider that the brilliance of Frost has made plans for succession. What have you done?
Still attracting more and more 'instant experts', despite the boards major internal malfunction fits. Frosty still knows bio-theraputics, pharmaceutical administration, and thanks to the years he served as chairman of the American Stock Exchange, securities and their markets.
His long professional career as a practicing dermatologist means he still has 'some skin in the game'. BTW that article in the Miami Herald two weeks ago was a pretty good review of his record. The only thing I noticed was an error in the Key markets. The rocket product was the Nitroglycerine patch for heart patients. In the 1970s every foreward looking drug company recognized the value of having a low dose long acting delivery system for Nitro. The two main problems were making the patch stay on (The sidewalks on Collins Avenue were paved with involuntary nitro-patch discards) and the release of a closely controlled amount of the medication. Variations of the amount of Nitro would send heart rates soaring or plumeting. All of the majors had a failure, or very limited success in this new major market, even Syntex, developer of 'The Pill' and major promoter of smaller amounts of meds, more precisely delivered.
It was Frost's expertise in this field that was the birth of the Transdermal Patchdrug delivery system. IVAX was generally a continuation of research into drug innovations that worked and generics that were as good as the original.
Don't use the boards that much anymore, at 80+, time is too precious to waste on most of the tomfoolery perpetrated here. Hope you and the better half have shaken off the snow-birds revenge.
God bless Dr. Frost, but this BABY, can walk,all by Herself. Dr. Frost has set OPKO up, in sections of the Pharma business. This is Brilliance in the making. Once again, God bless Dr. Frost!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ground vs Neutral Wire
I'm running a 10-2 w/ground wire from a sub-panel to the outside of the house for the purpose of A/C installation. The A/C guy said it didn't need 4 wires (ground plus neutral).
Question: Does it matter to which bar I attach the bare copper wire?
10/2 cable has two current carrying conductors and a ground wire. Straight 240v circuits do not use a neutral wire. You just have two hots and a ground. Don't worry, this confuses a lot of people. In your case you would use the white wire in the cable as a hot. The wire should be "re-identified" so that everyone else who works on the circuit knows what is going on. Use a black marker or paint marker to color the last few inches of the wire.
In case you made a typo, 10/3 cable has three current carrying conductors (typically black, red, white) plus a ground. In that case you would use the red and black and just cap off the white at either end.
Yes, It matters.
The bare copper wire is a Ground wire and may only be connected with other Ground wires anywhere except the main panel. At the main panel they may be connected on the same bar, though I usually keep them separate.
Your sub panel should have one bar where only white-insulated (neutral) wires are connected, and another bar where only bare or green-insulated (ground) wires are connected.
Thanks, guys.
Mike, I appreciate your answer, but it didn't quite do the job for me. The wires are white, black and plain copper. My question was must I connect the copper wire the ground rod. I thought maybe because there WASN'T any negative wire, I could just use the negative bar, rather than run it clear across to the other sided to the ground bar. Not a problem, just easier since I exited the box on the right side. BTW, I used to know a Mike Kaiser in Sunnyvale, Ca. Any knowledge of this man?
Randy, you are correct. All the bare (ground) wires are connected on the left side to the ground bar. In this case the two hot ones are black and white. So, I know I won't be wrong connecting the ground to the ground bar, but wondered if I could connect it to the neutral.......because of where I exited the box.
BTW, it is 220v.
" The wires are white, black and plain copper."
That is 10/2 cable with ground.
The bare wire is NOT counted in defining the cable.
It IS counted in flexible cords though.
The black is hot.
The white will be the other hot to get 240 V.
Even a wrap of tape around the white at each end to mark it as a hot conductor is acceptable.
The bare wire is ground.
I usually land the ground and neutral for each circuit near the breaker in a main panel to make keeping track of what goes with what easier.

April 1, 2015
When the western world employed the Julian calendar, years began on March 25. Festivals marking the start of the New Year were celebrated on the first day of April because March 25 fell during Holy Week. The adoption of the Gregorian calendar during the 1500s moved the New Year to January 1. According to the most widely-believed origin postulated for April Fools' Day, those who could be tricked into believing April 1 was still the proper day to celebrate the New Year earned the sobriquet of April fools. To this end, French peasants would unexpectedly drop in on neighbors on that day in a effort to confuse them into thinking they were receiving a New Year's call. Out of that one jape supposedly grew the tradition of testing the patience of family and friends.

Up & running; Area residents love to snowmobile
Once a snowstorm falls, most people dread the sight because, along with the cold weather, traveling in an automobile sometimes becomes often unbearable or even not advised.
However, for the winter lover, seeing a snowstorm means the opportunity to do one of their favorite things-ride a snowmobile.
"I had twice as many miles on my snowmobile than I did on my motorcycle last year," said Ellsworth native Wally Hines, who has ridden snowmobiles for years.

Israel-Turkey ties are nosediving. The promise of a thaw. with the diplomats of the two countries working hard to settle the standoff over the Gaza aid flotilla last year, seems to have died a sudden death despite some tentative indications by the visiting Israeli defence minister Ehud Barak after a meeting with US secretary of state Hillary Clinton in Washington last week that Tel Aviv might just about consider rendering a sort of apology to Ankara for the killing of the Turkish nationals by Israeli commandos. Obviously, Ankara won't accept anything less than a full, unqualified apology and Israel never apologises on any issue, as it is always on the right.
Ankara may be no longer interested in a rapprochement with Tel Aviv. Prime Minister Recep Erdogan would know that if he stands tall today like a Colossus on the landscape of the Muslim Middle East, it is almost entirely due to his readiness to humiliate Israel. He sees no reason to surrender that huge geopolitical gain for the limited purpose of placating the US.
Now comes a blistering attack on Erdogan by Jerusalem Post. In an editorial, the influential daily has linked Erdogan's recent assertion of civilian authority over the military as part of a calculated political agenda to 'Islamise' Turkey. The editorial equates the Turkish military with secularism, modernity and westernism and argues that that is the reason why Erdogan wants to humble the military leadership.
The big question is the kind of resonance this dangerous thesis would have on the minds of the Turkish officer corps. Israel has pockets of influence within the Turkish military, having been a close partner in defence cooperation for over a decade. Is the JP editorial a call to mutiny? Israel would be pleased if Erdogan is somehow replaced. The editorial comes at a very sensitive time when Erdogan faces a major challenge in restructuring the upper echelons of the Turkish military. He is not going to forget or forgive this sort of Israeli affront.
JP virtually calls on the western opinion to rally behind the Turkish generals. But that is unlikely to happen. At the end of the day, Erdogan's move is in the direction of asserting civilian supremacy of an elected government, a principle that Israel also cherishes as a working democracy.

I considered several versions of this Chippendale-style chair, but opted for Jonathan Adler for the bright white finish. I'm very glad I did - this chair is much, much higher quality than other replicas. The detail is fantastic. Even the quality of the upholstery is an order of magnitude better. I'm very pleased!

Nice chair/very small
Carissa from Bryn Mawr, PA– Verified Buyer
This chair is so tiny. The seat seems lower than most chairs and the back is really low. Not what I expected from Jonathan Adler. Think it's great quality...just small...I'm 5'6", 120 lbs female, but I'm sitting so uncomfortably low at my table when I sit on this. When I compare it to my regular dining chairs, it's about 2-3" shorter depending on the chair. Returning it as a result.

The existence of interplanetary dust particles was first deduced from observations of zodiacal light, a glowing band visible in the night sky that comprises sunlight scattered by the dust. Spacecraft have detected these particles as far out in space nearly as the orbit of Uranus, which indicates that the entire solar system is immersed in a disk of dust, centred on the ecliptic plane

5.0 out of 5 stars Why, you insolent primitive!,
This review is from: Doctor Who - The Monsters Collection: The Master [DVD] (DVD)
This set contains the four-part "Terror of the Autons" from 1971, as well as the two-part "The End of Time" from 2009/2010. Acting as both an introduction to the show for new viewers and a collector's item for the long-term fans, this set focuses on the Master, the Doctor's one-time friend turned long-time enemy.
Jon Pertwee stars as the Doctor's third incarnation in "Terror of the Autons", a story involving a circus, a blue horsebox, hypnotism, a floating Time Lord, a top-secret military organisation, policemen that aren't really policemen, a flowery coach bus and a heck of a lot of plastic. Katy Manning makes her debut as ditzy babe Josephine "Jo" Grant and Richard Franklin also debuts as Captain Mike Yates, UNIT's second in command and the Brig's right hand man. Roger Deglado makes an impact as the Master, playing him as a mischievous charmer who discusses the Doctor's demise as calmly as though he was talking about the weather. The suffocating chair may have come in for some flack at the time, but it's still an effective scene and possibly the stand-out moment of the story; it's hard to think of this adventure and not think of that image. Setting up the scene for most of the stories to come, this is great.
Thirty eight years later, with many Doctor/Master battles in between, "The End of Time" saw the Master unleash possibly the maddest scheme he's ever come up with. If Roger Delgado played the part as a charmer, then John Simm plays him as a straight-up loon. Gone are the mischievous qualities that Delgado and Anthony Ainley gave the character; the Master here is properly insane, to the point where we actually see him tied up in a straightjacket. Bernard Cribbins makes a fun and likeable companion as Wilfred Mott finally gets a trip in the TARDIS, and Timothy Dalton thunders as the return of Rassilon, but full marks here go to David Tennant, who effectively manages to give his Doctor a glorious send-off. Matt Smith's post-regeneration scene is something to behold; even though he's about to leave the show soon after three years in the role, within the first few minute or so of him being on screen here you get a pretty good idea of what his Doctor is going to be like. Hopefully Peter Capaldi will have something like this to give us an idea as well!
Clubbing these two stories together as a set and then sticking a �7.00 price tag on it is a bargain. Perfect for people who may not be too familiar with the show, perfect for people who are just getting introduced to the show amid all the hype of the 50th Anniversary, but also perfect for people like me who already have them but love them enough to get them again!

Matthew J. Parker "the legend writes:" (Todmorden, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Doctor Who - The Monsters Collection: The Master [DVD] (DVD)
Two stories featuring The Master - Terror of the Autons from the Pertwee era, and The End of Time part 1 and 2 - David Tennant's swansong. Roger Delgado is, was and always will be the definitive Master - here is a character you truly believe to be evil and a threat and all because of the fabulous acting of Delgado. It's little wonder the character stayed around for nearly every story of the next couple of years because he is just SO good in the role, and a perfect pair to spar with Pertwee. I often wonder how the shape of Doctor Who would have been if Delgado had survived the tragic crash in 1973. The story also features the Autons who Pertwee defeated temporarily in his debut story. A few dodgy effects aside, this story set the benchmark for Doctor Who in the future. Anthony Ainley was also a great master, and at least took Delgado's appearance, and finally got a great story in his final role in Survival - but John Simm?? No - he's not the Master. I think i'd have preferred to see Derek Jacobi with a black goatee in the role. As a story it's an epic and a deserving finale for Tennant, but they even had to bring in the timelords to show a proper menacing and a believable villain in Timothy Dalton. Simm is more like a spoiled child. At least, for the many people who complained about Autons being released in a box set, here it is for a bargain price.

4.0 out of 5 stars terror of the Autons/The End of Time,
This review is from: Doctor Who - The Monsters Collection: The Master [DVD] (DVD)
I have no idea where `KK' gets his/her information. According to the BBC these `Monster Collections' are specially themed sets to represent the most popular opponents of the Doctor. Each DVD will feature a story from the original run of Doctor Who (usually the first appearance of the monster) and from its return since 2005 (ie. Old Who and New Who as it is sometimes termed).
They are to be presented in sleeved cases in much the same design as `The Cybermen Collection' and `The Dalek Collection' that were released in 2009. This looks as if this will give them a collectible appearance.
This DVD includes:
TERROR OF THE AUTONS (3/5) - once more appearing with another story, it doesn't look as if this will have its own release. Even though it is the first appearance of the Master it is certainly not his strongest story or his best interaction with the Doctor. As he often does the Master shares the limelight, this time with the Autons. It is right that it should be Roger Delgado's version that appears but there are many stories when he is on much better form.
THE END OF TIME (5/5) - a great performance from John Simms. Never has the Master been more insane whilst also appearing as a sympathetic figure. Despite the `Master Race' the Master is somewhat overshadowed by the return of Rassilon and the demise of the Tenth Doctor. Perhaps, `Utopia/The Sound of Drums/Last of the Timelords' would have been a better story to represent the Master. It would have also featured another incarnation of the Master in Derek Jacobi.
As yet there is no mention of special features. It would seem a shame if there weren't any.
As previously released stories they are clearly intended to be collector's items especially for the fiftieth anniversary.
