That is pretty cool.
If you go to the Criterion blog there's more about the other cars:
"This is the first of 4 cars that we're making available as part of a wealth of new downloadable content for Burnout Paradise. They're available to buy individually or discounted, if you pick up the whole set. In addition to the Jansen 88 Special, look out for the Cavalry Bootlegger, Manhattan Spirit and the GT Nighthawk."
Reading this, I immediately assumed the Bootlegger is going to be the General Lee, and the Nighthawk is going to be KITT. It took me a second, thinking about the Manhattan Spirit, before I realized what it was.
The Ecto-1.
I just about shit my pants. BRB.
Nighthawk will be Street Hawk, a motorcycle. Get your lame 80's super vehicle shows right!
It's not a DeLorean, it doesn't count.
That looks freaking AWESOME, now this DLC actually makes me want to go back and play burnout
I NEED to get those PSN cards, this car looks sweet!
i was about to give up on paradise since i played so much of it and move onto motorstorm 2..... criterion can't you just let me play other games dammit!
A video game needs nothing more than the DeLorean for it to be greatest game of ALL TIME! If your suspicions are correct Foggen, and one of the other cars IS the Ecto-1, then there will be no need for anyone to make a game ever again, because I will be playing this game untill the day I die. Thats it.

Basically amazing.
That's so awesome! I'll likely pick the game up once they release this DLC, maybe sooner if the well of great games being released starts to dry up before that happens.
On a related note, I used to work at Chuck E. Cheese fixing the game machines. One day, when I couldn't be there, one of the cashier girls had to take over. We made sure she checked all the "flux capacitors" as part of the routine. She got so frustrated when she couldn't find them :)

"Wait a minute, Criteron. Ah... Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a Jensen 88?"
What's next? An update that enables you to walk outside the car and a GTA-style gameplay? I must say I admire them for their support to this game. Who knows, we might see DLC for Paradise in 2010 as well!?
Dang, haven't played Burnout in months but this is certainly a tempting notion.

Am I the only one hoping for a little Smokey and the Bandit action with this pack?
I'm already considering the Burnout Paradise re-release next year, and this is even more of a reason to do so.
Burnout Paradise: the game that just keeps on giving.
I will buy it.
"Still not buying BP at all without a "restart race" or proper crash mode."
tgammet, that's insane! Just go buy it and don't worry about stupid shit like that. Best Burnout in my opinion.
No sign of Herbie or a Bumblebee?
Zmilla - explaining other peoples jokes is so lame - wake up to yourself limp-dick.
Great my 2nd fav car ever delorean and the back to the future looking one no less.
Where is kitt from knight rider With turbo boost jump button? (or a look a like) I think that car is legendary enough to be in the pack.
Exept for maybe the back to the future car(done) and the batmobile there is no other car as famous as Kitt from knight rider.
1980's kitt not the crappy new one....it is horrible and ugly the new one.
BEtter yet where is the knight rider game from the burn out guys that is the whole point of the show kitt chases down the bad 80's dudes and rams them off the road. That is what the burnout engine does well crashes and ramming. They could make the first good night rider game with the burnout tech.
If pain can get Hasslehoff of all games why cant the burn out dudes get some knight rider kitt action?
I woulndt mind the A-team van either.

VIDEO: Trailer for Final Two Episodes of HBO's THE LEFTOVERS
Below, check out a trailer for the final two episodes of HBO's THE LEFTOVERS. The drama series has recently been revewed for a second season.
Currently debuting hour-long episodes on Sundays at 10:00 p.m. (ET/PT), and based on Perrotta's bestselling novel of the same name, The Leftovers is an original look at The Rapture...or was it The Rapture at all? Set in a small New York suburb, the intimate family drama focuses on the residents of the fictional town of Mapleton, whose preconceptions are shattered in the wake of a global event dubbed "The Sudden Departure." Three years after the fateful day when 140 million people Disappeared without a trace, the series looks at the ways ordinary people react to inexplicable events that can unite or divide families and communities, examining how their untold grief and The Strain of an unprecedented calamity can turn faith into cynicism, paranoia, madness or cult-like fanaticism.
The ten-episode first season of The Leftovers debuted June 29 on HBO, with the season finale slated to debut Sept. 7. Among the critical praise, the New York Times hailed the show for "an intriguing premise that is intelligently and artfully presented," while HitFix.com said of Damon Lindelof, "Maybe he saw the opportunity in 'The Leftovers' to make something great. Because he sure as hell has." The New Yorker noted that the show "captures the disorientation of grief in a way that is provocative and rare for television," adding, "'The Leftovers' is something new."
Season one series regulars include Justin Theroux, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Liv Tyler, Chris Zylka, Margaret Qualley, Carrie Coon, Emily Meade, Amanda Warren, Ann Dowd, Michael Gaston, Max and Charlie Carver, and Annie Q.

"In the economic sphere an act, a habit, an institution, a law produces not only one effect, but a series of effects. Of these effects, the first alone is immediate; it appears simultaneously with its cause; it is seen. The other effects emerge only subsequently; they are not seen; we are fortunate if we foresee them.
"There is only one difference between a bad economist and a good one: the bad economist confines himself to the visible effect; the good economist takes into account both the effect that can be seen and those effects that must be foreseen.
"Yet this difference is tremendous; for it almost always happens that when the immediate consequence is favorable, the later consequences are disastrous, and vice versa. Whence it follows that the bad economist pursues a small present good that will be followed by a great evil to come, while the good economist pursues a great good to come, at the risk of a small present evil."
– From an essay by Frédéric Bastiat, "That Which Is Seen and That Which Is Unseen," 1850
If you're a news addict, the last ten days or so were probably a dream come true. It's hard to know where to start, but I will limit myself to just four stories … but they're four big ones. And as Bastiat suggested, we will try to look beyond what we can see to probe the deeper implications in what may be unseen.

New Dillinger Esc. Plan video
Sick. So heavy.
best song on the ealbum
video is already gone
What the hell, this was fast.
It wasn't the best thing ever, by the way...
"best song on the ealbum"
lol wut
damnit what the fuck is sumerian doing get your shit together
"best song on the ealbum"
So, if you saw that video you're a lucky fecker. Unless someone ripped it and is willing to reupload it.
Digging: The Named - The Named
It best be awesome
Crossburner destroys
one of us is the killer and when i lost my bet are best on ealbum.
wish i couldve seen this video, they wrote something about this in their fb
""best song on the ealbum"
Erm, When I Lost My Bet?
The video had a really similar theme to the When I Lost My Bet video (also some high contrast/saturated images, similar gore). It was also similar to NIN's Closer video but not nearly as good. I also remember a lot of Puciato singing scenes, there were instruments to but I don't remember faces.
Video deleted. WUT.
from their facebook:
Everyone that saw the "One of Us is the Killer" video today...you may have seen a version that will never be seen again. That version was accidentally not the final edit. The final actual video will be posted around 10AM tomorrow morning Pacific Standard Time.
damn it
Paranoia Shields, Understanding Decay, When I Lost My Bet and Hero of the Soviet Union are all better
Nearly every song on the album is better, but it's a really well executed "softer" sound so respect for them finally pulling that off.
So, soft song = bad, hard song = good?
no it's definitely one of the best songs on the album. probably second only to crossburner
Prancer / When I Lost My Bet / Understanding Decay / Magic That I Held You Prisoner / CROSSBURNER / and The Threat Posed By Nuclear Weapons are all 5 stars for me... If i had to choose a best? It'd be a split between When I Lost My Bet and Crossburner (which is fucking flawless)
Fantastic song, good video.

Readers tell 'Hot Button': Was Bredesen right to commute Gaile Owens' death sentence?
Today's question: Do you agree with Gov. Phil Bredesen's decision to commute Gaile Owens' death sentence to life in prison?
I agree with Governor Bredesen's action. A life sentence is punishment enough. That is especially true in this case, given that Owens had suffered abusive treatment by her husband.
Daniel F. Case
Governor Bredesen did well to commute Gaile Owens' death sentence to life in prison. It would seem that most of us are born pre-wired with an ability to recognize and ultimately grasp that there are more caring and effective options to deter violence inflicted by and upon ourselves than through our allowance and permission of state executions.
Ray Lartigue
Bredesen's commutation of Owens' death sentence is not a release but will allow her to plead her case before a parole board. If they determine she has been a model prisoner for 25 years, is repentant and can lead a productive life, she should be freed.
Her decision to plead guilty in exchange for a life sentence should not be nullified because the murderer she hired refused to plead guilty.
There were few more heinous crimes than that of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, who killed 14-year-old Bobby Franks in 1924 simply to commit the perfect crime. After 33 years in prison, Leopold was paroled and moved to Puerto Rico where he led a productive life as a college math teacher and worked as a lab technician. He donated his body to science.
Warren Riggs
Tell us what you think about this week's question
A 71-year-old man who had been attacked near his home by two pit bulls died of an apparent heart attack during the incident on July 20. Before police arrived and captured the dogs, the animals also attacked and injured the man's daughter and one of the paramedics who were attempting to attend to severe wounds on the man's legs.
The attack in a neighborhood near the Medical Center was the third incident reported since last October in which a Memphis resident was severely injured by pit bulls that had escaped from their owners' yards. We'd like to know:
Are Memphis city officials and the police department doing enough to keep residents safe from attacks by aggressive dogs? If not, what other actions should they take?
E-mail your response to firstname.lastname@example.com by July 28. Keep your comments short and include your name, home address and daytime/evening telephone numbers where you can be reached. We'll publish responses on Aug. 1.

If you enjoy free mile a minute crochet patterns, then you've probably faced a challenge - joining crochet afghan panels. Luckily, this isn't as complicated as it may seem and they are multiple ways to join panels. Grab a hook and see what works for you. There are a variety of stitches that you can use when joining panels together. Try the slip stitch or whip stitch first and see if those are good options. You can also use half double crochet or the mattress stitch. The stitch you choose will change the look of your piece, so the choice is yours.

Author and Artist, Jan Gero, Releases ME ON ME
Author Jan Gero reveals that there is life after 50, 60, and, hopefully, long after 80.
The book "Me on Me" (published by iUniverse) is now available. In this book, Jan Gero introduces his groundbreaking work of non-fiction writing. Gero has spent fifty years processing his personal journey through a sometimes chaotic life - writing, drawing, and speaking his journals to gain psychological insight and personal development.
For Gero, self-examination is the ultimate challenge and key to self-empowerment. He would like his readers to grasp the benefits of the process of self examination and inspire them to look deeper into their own existence. To this end, Gero lays bare his life - from intense relationships with wives and lovers, to parents' deaths, to warm but messy reunions with daughters and grandchildren.
The book, "Me on Me", and its sequel "More Me on Me", will move readers to the core; they reveal the tragic-comic complexity of family, romance and above all, one's relationship with oneself. The books, each with seven stories culled from his journal-writing life, contain many drawings, compelling in their intimacy.
"I went into the red-tiled kitchen where she was preparing her 'bitter tea', a disagreeable brew a Curandera advised her to take for parasites in her intestines. I stayed as she prepared it, embracing her once or twice. We stood a while holding each other, which turned into a slight grinding motion, pelvis to pelvis. We even did a little abdominal breath-sound as she said Aztec Indians do. Then we went easily up her ornate Spanish staircase to her bedroom and into her high bed which was freezin' cold. We went into it with socks and several t-shirts on. We brought new hot water bottles. We rubbed and gently pounded each other into warmth and considerable sexual energy." Me On Me - Mexico story.
Gero emerges as a literary light of positive energy to all those who, like himself, find themselves at the last chapters of their existence. His emotional stories pierce the veil of seeming reality to touch the amorphous shapes that lie within. These fragments of life are, indeed, the substance of the human condition, and 'journaling' is the most life-enriching exploration of that condition.
The books are available in English language, ISBN-13 978-1462043637 and also as an E-Book, ASIN: B00797OXFK and ASIN: B006WP3K1I.
About the Author
Jan Gero is a journal writer who has written consistently for fifty years. He was born in Denmark to Danish and Russian Jewish parents, emigrating to America at age 13. He self-published 16 books of journals (1983 to 2000).
His journal work takes several forms, such as audio-, video-, dream and therapy journals, available on DVD. Jan has had careers in architecture, fashion, modern dance and documentary filmmaking.

Zurich HotelsZurich is the largest city in Switzerland, a sprawling expanse of glitzy modern architecture and centuries-old historic sights. The city is also a thriving hub of arts and culture, and is flush with gorgeous art galleries and stately museums. Shoppers will find plenty to enjoy here too, as Zurich's streets are lined with ritzy boutiques. If the urban energy ever gets too much, take a tranquil walk in one of Zurich's many green public parks and gardens. Things to seeStart your Zurich day at The Kunsthaus Zurich, the city's key museum of modern arts. Based in a looming, Neo-Grec stone building, the museum showcases inspiring works from the likes of Manet, Turner, and Munch. After, head over to the Swiss National Museum, and learn about Switzerland's riveting history and culture. The museum's displays span from ancient history up to the present day - highlights include the shiny suits of old-world armor and the rich collection of gothic art. As the afternoon rolls around, appreciate some of the city's stellar architecture. Stop by the Grossmunster, an enormous Romanesque-style church perched by the shimmering Limmat River. Tour its 15th century crypts, gaze at the contemporary stained glass, and climb one of the 2 iconic towers. If you're traveling with kids, cap off the day at the Zurich Zoo, and say hello to cute leopard cubs and cuddly panda bears. Hotels in ZurichThere's a wide range of accommodation on offer in central Zurich. Urban explorers looking for cheap and easy accommodation that won't break the bank should stay in a 2-star hotel or guesthouse. Enjoy free WiFi - great for keeping in contact with friends and family - and free hearty breakfasts. Stay in a 3-star Zurich hotel for something slightly more special, where you can unwind in the chilled-out bar lounges and relax in spacious, naturally-lit rooms. For utter indulgence, there are a few 5-star luxury hotels in Zurich, which offer full service spas, refined restaurants, and classic concierge services. Where to stayZurich is split into numbered and named districts. Most folks will likely stay in the City/Lindenhof district, the central historic area at the heart of Zurich. Here, you'll be surrounded by the city's historic architecture and be within walking distance of key galleries and museums. On the eastern bank of the Limmat River, you'll find Neidordorf, a mostly pedestrianized district of winding medieval streets, upscale restaurants, and jazzy bars. Splurging shoppers will find plenty of bijou boutiques here too. For a quieter area, with immediate access to Zurich's deep blue lake, stay in Seefled, south of Neidordorf. How to get to ZurichZurich is easily reached by air, having an international airport based just 11 kilometers from the city center. Zurich Airport serves year-round flights from top European destinations like London and Paris, and from US cities like New York and Chicago. From the airport, the quickest way to central Zurich is to hop on a ZVV train to Zurich Hauptbanhof - the ride takes a relaxing 12 minutes. Alternatively, hire your own car at the airport and drive to the center. Once there, the city's highly efficient, ultra-clean, and extremely safe public transport system of buses, trains, and trams will take you almost anywhere in the city and its neighboring districts.

After almost four wonderful years here on Bites — four years of discoveries and laughs, of hard times, of rallying around our local restaurants, of cooking alongside you and eating with you, if only virtually — four years and almost exactly 1,000 blog posts, today is my final regular post for Bites.
Technically, it's a just a sabbatical, but it was still a hard decision to make. I love it here, and I feel safe and at home. The Scene and I go back more than 20 years, and in every way, it's my literary alma mater, and you, the readers, are my most precious responsibility.
And it's just fun. Cooking and dining are communal activities, and a pleasure not shared is a pleasure not fully experienced. I love hearing about your marvelous home cooking, your experiments, your fantastic dining experiences and your disappointments. I love the rush of adrenalin and the pit in my stomach when there's breaking news to report. And — not aging gracefully — I savor every sweet drop of beating the competition on a story, a relic of my days in daily journalism.
While I've been penning these posts, I was also attending radiologic tech school, and I now work as a mammographer and clinician. Writing is still my vocation, but writing to make a living has become so very hard, and mine is a two-writer household. You can work out the economics there.
Medicine comes pretty naturally to me — I come from a family of nurses and anesthetists. I love my clinic, and I cherish patients almost as much as I cherish Bites readers. I always ask what they're making for dinner, and where they're going for lunch. They must find it charmingly eccentric; I hope so. I expect they prefer it to discussing breasts.
That alone isn't enough to make me leave this place. I continue to edit cookbooks, and that workload is increasing. I'll also be writing one day a week at Relish magazine, where I hope you'll join me, or at least pop in to see what's up. I've worked on the Relish books and articles for several years, and I can tell you, from one foodist to another, the food is great.
Like I said, this is technically a sabbatical, and if history is any indicator, the odds are I'll be back some day. The Scene and I are like friends with benefits: We fall into bed about once a decade. I recently dug out a cover story I wrote for the Scene 12 years ago, the last time we had an assignation, which was a 12 years after my short gig as the first restaurant reviewer.
Thank you for your patience, your excellent intel, your tips, your good words, your candid critiques, and mostly, thank you for coming back to Bites over and over. I know I'll be doing the same. See you on the boards.

Gun control, museum, Thatcher, Social Security
The Museum of Man has a CEO. Maybe we can we expect something cool from it, maybe a new name such as "The Mom?" – Herbert L. Young, San Diego
Honoring a leader
I just read that the Obama administration has not sent a "worthy" U.S representative to the Margaret Thatcher funeral ("Obama asks Shultz, Baker to go to Thatcher funeral," utsandiego.com, April 15). Despite Obama's personal view of government being a panacea for the country, Margaret Thatcher was at the helm of her country for 12 years, championing free enterprise. She had a major role in the demise of the Soviet Union which helped to end the Cold War. She should be honored as a leader that believed in our values. After hearing of her passing I thought that our country perhaps should have flown our flag at half-staff. Shame on this administration. – Richard Enchelmeyer, Lemon Grove
Stand up for the Constitution
In response to Francis R. Sprecco (Letters, April 16): I was irked by this topic, "Social Security cuts won't balance budget."
I thought this is the icing on the cake on top of the other issues such as losing our constitutional republic, our sovereignty being handed over to ICLEI and our students being deliberately dumbed down.
Would you be able to look each of our American retirees and veterans who rely on Social Security to survive in the eye and say, "I am cutting your benefit by almost 20 percent because I don't have the ability to prevent anyone from fraudulently collecting Social Security. Since I can't prevent that and we are broke, it is coming out of yours and everyone else's pocket. Sorry, and have a nice day."
I know that conversation will never take place. So that means our elected representatives are either corrupt or not educated. In either case, do we allow them to continue to oversee our rapid decline into Third World status (as Rep. Brian Bilbray warned us about)?
I challenge all state and federal elected legislators to either stand with the Constitution or resign. That of course won't happen until millions of Americans stand up for the Constitution and insist that our representatives do the same. – C. Lee Sandvick, San Diego

Company and Founder
Jim Thomas is the well-known founder and president of Fitness Management USA, Inc., a management consulting and turnaround firm specializing in the fitness and health club industry.
With over 25 years of experience owning, operating and managing clubs of all sizes, Mr. Thomas lectures and delivers seminars and workshops across the country on the practical skills required to successfully build teamwork and market fitness programs and products.
Since forming Fitness Management, Mr. Thomas has been turning health clubs around at an amazing rate and garnering a reputation as a producer of change…a sharp-eyed troubleshooter, a brilliant sales trainer, and a motivator. Fitness Management provides programs that show measurable results and Jim's team is proud of their ability to glean profit from every square foot of a client's investment.
A dynamic, articulate motivator, Mr. Thomas exudes confidence without artifice and accomplishes wonders without the bruised feelings that can so often accompany change. "We pride ourselves in reaching people and motivating change in a way that encourages self-esteem on the part of the players."
Whether you operate a health club, fitness center, gym or other type club, Jim Thomas and Fitness Management have a program to fit your need, expand your market base, and keep your members and staff productive and enthusiastic.
After Jim completes a Needs Analysis of the club, he strategically maps out a plan and then provides the means to execute a plan that can fit your needs.
A few things that makes FM & C an outstanding firm is not only their proven, time-tested methods of Jim's sales training and tracking accountabilities, but the manner in which he delivers the presentations. Jim is a true "people" person. He understands the daily struggles of the mom-n-pop facilities and he can handle all the red-tape that a larger, corporate facility is faced with.
Some consultants do a good job with the rah-rah, cheerleading seminars, but Jim is excellent also when the crowds are gone and you're back to the grind of the daily operational challenges. I have consulted with Jim Thomas for over 10 years and he is the real deal. I highly recommend Fitness Management & Consulting whether you are a struggling club looking to turn things around, or a new club start-up. FM & C can assist you and at the end of the day, you will feel that they have earned every $$ you invest into them.

A masterpiece of historical fiction, this is the Great Novel of America's "Greatest Generation".
Herman Wouk's sweeping epic of World War II, which begins with The Winds of War and continues in War and Remembrance, stands as the crowning achievement of one of America's most celebrated storytellers. Like no other books about the war, Wouk's spellbinding narrative captures the tide of global events - and all the drama, romance, heroism, and tragedy of World War II - as it immerses us in the lives of a single American family drawn into the very center of the war's maelstrom.
Also listen to War and Remembrance.
©1971 Herman Wouk (P)2011 Audible, Inc.
"Wouk's real genius lies not just in the narrative power of his books, but in his empathy with the people and the times of which he writes…. The genius of The Winds of War and War and Remembrance is that they not only tell the story of the Holocaust, but tell it within the context of World War II, without which there is no understanding it." (The Washington Post)
"Enthralling and historic!"
I actually do consider the audio version to be better. The narrator did a wonderful job with the voices. I read this book twice as I loved it so much, but listening brought it to life in a different way.
The history woven through the fabric of the characters lives.
I can't say, as there are too many to chose from.
An epic family drama and romance set in the years leading to the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor.
One of my favorite books of all time!
I'd consider one from Wouk, but it's hard to get into the story and decide whether or not it is actually good with the way it's narrated.
I'm only part way through the story, and it is interesting, but it's hard not to be put off by the way it's narrated.
It sounded like he was out of breath or nervous and not fluent with reading aloud at all. I have found it very frustrating to listen to, all the more because it's such a long story. It's very laboured, although has some good moments, but they are short.
I wouldn't actually recommend getting this.
"A new percpective on impeding doom"
There is no true villian, except naturally Hitler.
The second meeting with Hitler about US involvement.
Pug Henry
The book is very long but the narrator succeeded in keeping my interest for 45hours. Quite a feat considering I dislike war stories.
"More detail than the movie"
I have seen The Winds Of War as a movie several times and found that there was much more detail in the book. I have listened to other books after I viewed the movie and found that a lot of the story isn't covered and the book can be a richer experience.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in war stories because it is based somewhat on the true history of World War 2, once I started this book I couldn't put it down.
"I am enjoying it."
I have recommended it, but most think it is too long, and would be too slow.
Escaping from Warsaw after the German invasion.
Not sure
"Should have listened to the preview!"
I love long books especially historical fiction so I couldn't wait to start this book. After the first 30 minutes, I had to switch it off. Please believe me, this is not something I do easily as I hate to waste money. However it was so utterly boring and difficult to follow that I just could not continue! I had trouble following the storyline and connecting with the characters. Had I known, I would not have wasted my credit. Who knows - I may go back to this one again and give it another try - it's unlikely though.
Through the eyes of a naval family we are taken to Berlin, London, the Kremlin and the White House where we get a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes in world dramas. One family member marries a Jew hence we also get a thorough look at the attempted genocide of the Jewish citizens who come under the sway of the Nazis. The author also attempts to show us a history of World War II from the point of view of a German historian.
The Narrator's stulted rendition takes a bit of getting used to but the story is so riveting this can be forgiven.
A great story and a wonderful way to absorb history! I didn't want the book to end.
"This is the new gold standard"
I regret all my previous five-star ratings and reviews. Nothing is as good as "The Winds of War." Except perhaps, for its sequel, "War and Remembrance." The plot lines are intricate. The characters are conflicted; right and wrong are constantly pulling at them. The backdrop is World War II. Author Herman Wouk puts everything together and the end result is literature's greatest historical novel(s).
But the greatness does not end with the writing; it does not end with the story itself. Narrator Kevin Pariseau also brings his art to new heights. Not only does he give each and every character a distinct voice, he gives those voices depth of emotion and maturity as the story unfolds. His women's voices actually sound like women speaking. And when the novel calls for singing, he breaks into perfect song. A tour de force of voice acting.
You cannot go wrong with "Winds of War" and "War and Remembrance."
"Read it now I have heard it"
Written before the fall of the Soviet Union it interesting to hear some of that old ideology about communism and the Soviet Block states. For those of you under the age of 55 it an interesting introspective of how your parent viewed the world. Remember also that a flood of historical documents have been released from both the Soviet Union and the USA which strengthen arguments for WWII, or at least clarify the reasons.
"Narrator Loses the Battle of this War"
I willl never listen to another book by Kevin Pariseau. This was so awful, I wish I would not have wasted the credits. Quite a disappointment because I had waited for years for this book and the sequel from Audible. John Lee or George Guidall should be the narrator. I will not be purchasing the sequel.
I read both books years ago and watched the mini-series. I liked the history.
The narration runs together. Cannot tell when a description ends and the

So here it is, a new free action designed and generously donated by Johnna LaFaith, converted to an action by me! I hope you guys love Johnna's Memories of Sunshine enhancement as much I do. If you want to see what the action does, step-by-step, page down for the Action UnWrapped tutorial.

Great action! Thanks for sharing. I'm fairly new at this, I am using elements 9. On step four, where it says "drag on top of all of the layers" what does this mean? I tried to drag the background copy on top of each layer, but nothing happend. I'm sorry if it is a weird question, I just wasn't sure how to carry out that step.

The Peak District National Park and much of the surrounding countryside was once mined
extensively for Lead, Fluorspar, Barytes, Copper, Calcite and other minerals. Much of the now-familiar and naturalised
landscape has been modified considerably by ancient miners, with hillocks, old lead veins,
engine houses and mine buildings forming an integral part of the modern-day
landscape. Across the area are many archaeological features relating to mining activities
– some dating back several hundred years, some considerably more recent.
The Peak District Mines Historical Society exists to preserve these important industrial
heritage sites, and to promote interest and understanding in mines, mining and minerals –
and in the fascinating and varied mining history.
Through this website, we hope to present to a wider audience the aims, objectives,
activities and resources of the society.
