O N E Introduction Using This Manual Thank you for purchasing a Brother fax machine (FAX). This machine has been designed to be simple to use, with LCD screen prompts to guide you through functions. However, you can use your machine to its fullest potential by taking a few minutes to read this manual.
Symbols Used In This Manual About Fax Machines If you're a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious. You'll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
I N T R O D U C T I O N When your fax machine is in FAX/TEL (F/T) mode, it answers with a short beep. After this beep, the fax machine listens for CNG tones, and, if heard, it will respond with receiving tones.

If you want to get a sense of how unexpected the Cowboys' early draft moves really were, consider that their first four selections were ranked inversely on my board; yes, I had safety J.J. Wilcox rated slightly ahead of wide receiver Terrance Williams, who was a long way ahead of tight end Gavin Escobar. First-round pick Travis Frederick wasn't rated in my top 80, and I viewed him as a third-round talent.
When I posted my initial scouting reports on those players, I would typically spend around 30 minutes or more watching any tape I could find. Thanks to some hard-working individuals around the country, there's actually plenty of film available on every prospect, even the small-school guys.
Well, I've had more time to study each prospect, both on the field and off. My original grades were based almost solely on game tape, measurables, and college stats, but there's obviously more to consider. If there's one thing the Cowboys have done well since Jason Garett took over as head coach, it's draft high-character players who will continue to work hard after they sign their first contract. This class is no different.
So this week, I'm going to post any new information I can find on each rookie, along with my original scouting report. Then, I'll re-grade the prospect. The grades will be independent of the Cowboys' selections, meaning Frederick won't be penalized for being over-drafted in the first round. Today, let's start with him.
Original Travis Frederick Scouting Report
The first thing that must be noted about Frederick is that he had a really poor showing at the Combine, running a 5.58 40-yard dash—the second-slowest for any lineman there—and posting only 21 reps on the bench press. Critics of measurables will point out that "linemen never have to run 40 yards" in games, and while that's true, it doesn't really matter. When a player runs such a slow time, it hints to a lack of athleticism. Can Frederick play in the NFL without being an elite athlete? Sure, but he still needs to surpass a certain threshold of athleticism, and I'm not sure he does.
Frederick has good size at 6-4, 312 pounds. On film, he plays very intelligently. He handles stunts and blitzes well, and he displays outstanding body position nearly all of the time. Frederick doesn't typically deliver knockout shots, but he gets between his defender and the ball-carrier or quarterback on most plays. For lacking athleticism, he does a fine job of getting to the second level and walling off defenders.
Frederick is very coachable and he's going to work hard at the next level. He's the "right kind of guy," but I'm not sure if he has the right kind of athleticism to really thrive in the NFL. He's not going to provide flawless pass protection, and there's a good chance he'll get eaten up by the league's quicker interior defensive linemen. Plus, there are questions about how stout he can be at the point-of-attack.
What I Like
Obviously, Frederick has some really good tape out there. He plays with awesome technique, and you can tell just how cerebral he is on the field. After hearing him in his first press conference in Dallas, you can tell he's a really intelligent kid. That's important, especially for a player who will be making the line calls.
From all accounts, Frederick is also a natural leader. He seems confident in himself—which will be vital for someone the fans already dislike because of his draft spot—and he seems to be very focused on improving his game.
What I Don't Like
Again, I question if Frederick has enough athleticism to really thrive in the NFL. You don't need to be a freak athlete to play center, but I watched more tape of Frederick struggling with speed at the college level. I think he has the determination and work ethic to improve, but it won't matter if he's not athletic enough to play with NFL talent.
I also don't like that Frederick is a low-ceiling player. I really doubt that he can ever play at an All-Pro level, even if he maxes out on his potential. It's smart to invest in safe players in the first round, but the Cowboys probably could have drafted a safe player with more upside.
Re-Grade: Second Round
My feelings on Frederick's on-field ability haven't really changed, but I love what I've seen from him since he was drafted. He's intelligent and focused enough to improve others around him, and that's important. I'll give him a late second-round grade. I like the player, but the Cowboys still overpaid.

Following the announcement of Sony's HDR-FX1E, Adobe will add support for the HDV format to Premiere Pro 1.5, the company said. No extra hardware is required, as HDV is captured over the same FireWire connection as standard DV, and standard deck control capabilities are available.
The plug-in will be made available as a free download later in the year.
HDV offers a choice of resolutions, include the progressive 1,280-x-720 (aka 720P) and the interlaced 1,440-x-1,080 (aka 1080i) but records using MPEG-2 compression onto standard miniDV tapes. As with DV, the format is aimed at consumers – it can play back on standard HDTV sets – but prosumer and professional models can also be built around it. Currently only two versions of the same HDV camera have been released: JVC's HD1 and the XLR-audio enabled, pro-level HD10 variant. Both are aimed at the US market, though JVC Professional has been selling HD10s to digital filmmakers in the UK. The Sony HDR-FX1E is expected to ship in the UK in November.

Legal Question in Construction Law in Oregon
How early can construction companies start working?
I moved into my apartment two months before construcion started outside my window. When i moved in it was a park and my apartment complex never told me that construction would be taking place. I work nights and it is hard for me to sleep, so my question is how early are construction companies aloud to start in the morning, without breaking any nuisance laws. And also should my apartment reduice my rent, since they never told me about the construcion when i moved in. Thanks for your time.
1 Answer from Attorneys
Re: How early can construction companies start working?
Local zoning laws and noise ordinances determine when construction companies can cause noise. From your zip code, it appears that you live in Portland. Under Portland code, construction companies can start at 7 a.m. and must finish by 6 p.m. The also cannot work on Sundays. There are exceptions to this , but these are the general rules. Other localities may have different rules.
Whether the apartment owners have an obligation to you depends on whether they have any control over the construction. If they are doing the construction, then it is possible that they should have notified you before you rented the apartment. On the other hand, if the construction is being controlled by someone else, like the neighboring property owner, then it is outside their control and responsiblity.
The City of Portland code section on noise follows:
18.10.060 Construction Activities and Equipment. (Printable Version)
(Amended by Ord. No. 159276 effective Jan. 24, 1987.)
A. Maximum sound levels: No person shall operate any equipment or appurtenances thereto in commercial construction activities which exceeds 85 dBA, when measured at 50 feet (15.2 meters) from the source. This standard shall not apply to trucks (see Section 18.10.020), pile drivers, pavement breakers, scrapers, concrete saws and rock drills.
B. Night, weekend, and legal holidays limitation: From 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. the following morning, and 6:00 p.m. Saturday to 7:00 a.m. the following Monday, and on legal holidays, the permissible sound levels of Section 18.10.010 shall apply to all construction activities except by variance or for reasons of emergency. The exempted equipment of Section 18.10.060 A is not exempted during these hours. For purposes of this Subsection, construction activities on a public road within a zone shall be considered as taking place on private property within that zone.
C. The adjustments to permissible sound levels established in Section 18.10.010 B apply to Subsections A and B above.
D. All equipment used in commercial activities shall have sound control devices no less effective than those provided on the original equipment, and no equipment shall have an unmuffled exhaust.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8 (UPI) -- A recent U.S. survey found Pacific sea turtles comprise an entire ecosystem with an array of living "hitchhikers" on their skin and shells, researchers say.
Amanda Feuerstein of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History is the co-author of a recent survey documenting the crustaceans, mollusks, algae and other marine organisms that make a home on the bodies of Olive Ridley and green sea turtles living in the Pacific.
"It is strange to think of a sea turtle as an ecosystem," Feuerstein said, "but they are … they have all of these other animals living on their skin and shells."
For three years Feuerstein and colleagues examined the shells, necks and flippers of female turtles that had come to Teopa Beach in Jalisco, Mexico, to nest, collecting and carefully documenting all the organisms -- known as epibionts -- they found.
Sixteen epibiont species were found, Feuerstein said, including crabs, a variety of barnacles, the remora or "shark sucker," and leeches.
"When we endanger animals like sea turtles many other groups of animals are affected," Feuerstein said. "Losing one species is more complicated and tragic" than people may realize.

If you are considering buying or selling a timeshare, it is important to know what the licensing requirements are in the State where you are considering the selling of a timeshare or purchasing a timeshare resale. My advice is to always use a licensed professional when buying or selling a timeshare. By working with a licensed professional you are assured that every transaction is in compliance with the laws of the state where you wish to buy or sell a timeshare and that you will receive the appropriate disclosure statements and rescission period. A licensed timeshare broker is required to provide you with any disclosure statements and inform you of rescission rights for timeshare sales.
The majority of States require some type of license in order to sell timeshares or timeshare resales. Some States require a real estate license while other States require a special timeshare license and several States have no licensing requirement to handle sales or resales of timeshares.
Following you will find a list of States that require a real estate license, States that require a timeshare sales license and a list of States that do not require any type of special license in order to sell timeshare or timeshare resales.
A real estate license is required to sell timeshare and timeshare resales in the following States:
Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyoming
The following States require a timeshare sales license (not a real estate license) in order to sell timeshare or timeshare resales:
Montana law requires a person offering timeshare intervals in a project located in Montana to be licensed as a timeshare salesperson and affiliated with at least one registered timeshare project.
Nevada requires a Time Share Representative license which is issued for a one year term or a Time Share Agent license which is issued for a two year period and requires 6 hours of continuing education upon renewal of an active or inactive license.
South Dakota law states the Real Estate Commission may issue restricted brokers' or salesmen's licenses for time share brokers or salesmen.
Tennessee requires 30 hours of classroom training prior to taking the Timeshare Salesperson test to become a licensed Timeshare Salesperson.
Washington only requires a registration application to become a licensed Timeshare Salesperson.
The following States do not require any special license in order to sell timeshares or timeshare resales:
Illinois, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin

Given the coincidence of surnames, this could be worth following up [e.g. censuses, basptisms of

Spouse Name:Caroline Hannah Thorne [-, 4 Wellington Street]
Spouse Age:20
Record Type:Marriage
Marriage Date:03 Aug 1862

Source Citation: London Metropolitan Archives, Saint James, Bermondsey[Should be SHOREDITCH
-(( ], Register of marriages, P71/JS, Item 014
In 1871 they are in Union Street, Shoreditch, indexed as Charles MOURTON by ancestry. I see from the
1851 census that the two Richards are distinct persons, one born 1842 listed as Charles], the other
1850, but there might be a connection?

The 2014-2015 Duke / Fuqua Essay Topic Analysis is now available.
Following up on our announcement of Duke / Fuqua's essay topics for 2013-2014, we wanted to share our thoughts on how applicants might go about addressing this year's questions.
After making significant changes to their essay questions last year, Fuqua has opted to keep their essay questions the same for the 2013-2014 admissions cycle. The school's essay topics reflect a strong interest in getting to know applicants more personally and in learning about their specific reasons for applying to Fuqua. Wrote Director of Admissions Megan Lynam, "We strive for questions that will fill any gaps in the application, tie the applicant's story together, and shed light on what truly makes the person who they are – beyond what is stated in the resume, test scores, and transcripts."
With all of this in mind, let's take a closer look at each question:
(Those who previously applied to Fuqua's MBA program between July 2012 and May 2013 should note that they must respond to a re-applicant essay in addition to the questions listed below.)
Short Answer Questions: Answer all 3 questions. For each short answer question, respond in 250 characters only (the equivalent of about 50 words).
These three questions are quite straightforward, calling for applicants to concisely state their short-term goals, long-term goals, and back-up career goals. Although asking about career alternatives is slightly unusual, Question 3 is still fairly basic; applicants simply need to identify another post-MBA position that would lead them towards their long-term goals. With roughly 50 words per question, applicants will need to be succinct and to the point. In Lynam's words, "Here, we're just looking for the facts, with minimal embellishment."
Essay 1: The "Team Fuqua" spirit and community is one of the things that sets The Duke MBA experience apart, and it is a concept that extends beyond the student body to include faculty, staff, and administration. When a new person joins the Admissions team, we ask that person to share with everyone in the office a list of "25 Random Things About Yourself." As an Admissions team, we already know the new hire's professional and academic background, so learning these "25 Random Things" helps us get to know someone's personality, background, special talents, and more. In this spirit, the Admissions Committee also wants to get to know you–beyond the professional and academic achievements listed in your resume and transcript. You can share with us important life experiences, your likes/dislikes, hobbies, achievements, fun facts, or anything that helps us understand what makes you who you are. Share with us your list of "25 Random Things" about YOU.
Please present your response in list form, numbered 1 to 25. Some points may be only a few words, while others may be longer. Your complete list should not exceed 2 pages.
One of the more nontraditional business school essays, this prompt allows applicants to showcase interesting and meaningful facts about themselves that they otherwise might not get a chance to share with the adcom. Given the free-form nature of the task, we're hesitant to provide too much guidance here; the best advice we can offer is for applicants to think about who they are and the people, events, and activities that have helped shape them, and to then start crafting their list. We also advise candidates to avoid assuming that the more words one puts into the document, the better one's list will be (many great lists have an almost poetic nature to them). Showing the initial result to a close friend or relative could be a great way to determine the effectiveness of a working draft. One final thing to keep in mind is that while it's perfectly fine for applicants to mention other people in their lists, they should make sure that each fact relates back to themselves in some way and helps the admissions reader get to know them.
We understand that the level of self-analysis required here can be extremely challenging, so applicants should feel free to contact us for a free consultation, in which a Clear Admit Admissions Counselor can help an applicant think through the elements of his or her profile and determine how to best portray his or her candidacy.
Essay 2: When asked by your family, friends, and colleagues why you want to go to Duke, what do you tell them? Share the reasons that are most meaningful to you.
Your response to this essay question should be no more than 2 pages in length. Please respond fully and concisely using 1.5 line spacing.
Asking applicants about their interest in the school to which they are applying is standard practice among MBA programs, though Fuqua takes a more personal approach to the question. The adcom is looking for applicants to convey a sincere sense of excitement about Fuqua's MBA program. According to Lynam, "When you tell your best friend why you are applying to a specific school, you do so with genuine passion and enthusiasm. We want to hear that honest emotion, along with the reasoning that you give your best friend/mom/significant other/mentor about why you are applying not just to MBA programs, but to Fuqua."
Keeping that in mind, one way for applicants to approach this essay might be to actually speak to family, friends, and colleagues about their interest in Fuqua, see which aspects of the school end up being discussed the most frequently in conversation, and then write their response based on those features. Candidates should remember, however, that they ideally need to address not only what they would gain by attending Fuqua, but also how they envision themselves fitting into and contributing to the school community. Demonstrating an understanding of the unique merits of Fuqua's program is crucial to an effective response to this question. Taking the time to learn about the school's curriculum, special programs, and extracurricular activities – whether through a visit to campus, conversations with alumni, or reading the Clear Admit School Guide to Fuqua – will pay dividends here.

Elemental Gearbolt
FAQ/Walkthrough by Kain
Updated: 05/02/00 | Search Guide | Bookmark Guide
Guide\Walkthrough for
Elemental Gearbolt on the
Sony Playstation by
Zhou Tai An (email@example.com)
Anyone using this for anything besides non-profit must notify me.
I recently rediscovered this great game on a visit to a friend's house and
on a whim decided to write a FAQ for it...after all, I used to memorize the
stage layouts, so why waste all that knowledge? I hardly think anyone knows
about or plays this anymore, but it's a fantastic game and deserves a FAQ, so
Basic Tips and Hints :
1) There are three weapons you have - Fire, Lightning and Water. Their uses
are as follows :
Fire - Your main means of attack. Has the best range and power of all the
available weapons, great for pin-point shots. It's main uses are taking out
enemies before they enter firing range, sniping and when battling bosses.
Drawbacks include a delay for shots (avoid pumping on the button - tap just
a split-second after your first press) and small hit range. Note that you can
actually nab all the coins held in a Treasure Gem if you time your shot
right. Also, due to it's power, a single shot of Fire tends to destroy
everything in it's area (though small) so remember this.
Lightning - Very wide range and auto-homing capability are the advantages of
this weapon, but it also has a delay and does weak damage in comparison with
the other two. Use this to rack up combos and clear fields of enemies, but
be careful that not too many are on-screen at one time or your shots will
spread too far. Has bad range, but is excellent for hitting Fairies and
Treasure Gems if your accuracy is off. Another use is countering the clusters
of shots bosses tend to fling at you.
Water - The main asset of this is the ability to strafe. Works well at taking
out streams of enemy shots (from bosses and otherwise) and hitting multiple
foes that appear in a small area. Doesn't really do that much damage even
compared to Lightning, but it has it's uses.
2) The screen moves around a LOT in this game, which will throw off your aim.
Learn to compensate for this by not moving around your targeting cursor that
much. Besides that, the only way to really compensate for that is by playing
more so you get used to the stage layouts.
3) Try to get a high Hit and Combo score (consecutive hits) so that you can
max out your score...this is important even if you're not playing for points.
I'll explain this in more detail later. On the same note, getting all the
Fairies in a stage nets you a huge bonus, so try for that too.
4) Only some of the enemies present on the screen at any given time will
fire at you - when the green triangles form around them they're going to
fire. (Though you have perhaps half a second before they actually do.) Because
of this, you should only concentrate on the ones which actually attack you,
instead of simply harass. Same goes for fighting bosses - it's sometimes
better to just attack him\her\it.
This also applies to a lesser degree to attacks and other projectiles - if
they're now aimed directly at you they will tend to miss.
5) Now it's time for me to explain the point\life\levelling up system in the
game. You see, you actually gain levels when you die. Well, it's not that
simple, so bear with me...
Anyway, for starters, the points you accumulate during a stage can be added
to either your score or your level at the end of that level. (That is, if
you're not playing on Master, which means that all points get added to score
whether you like it or not.) Score earns you places in the high score table,
gets you better ranks (Stuff like Spirit Knight and Spirit Warrior as
opposed to the default Spirit Apprentice) and makes you feel good. Levels add
more life and power to your attacks, making them a more viable choice for
actually playing the game. ^_^
However, if you die during the game and have enough points, you will
automatically gain a level and your score will be reduced drastically (at least
for two player mode - in one player, the same thing happens but you get sent
back to the beginning of the stage as well) This doesn't mean you have
unlimited continues, though, since if you run out of points, you die for
good. As you can see, even if you're not playing for score, you don't want
to do this too often, so you're going to have to use your end-of-stage points
to gain levels...and even if you're playing for score, you have to decide
judiciously so you don't waste what you're earned. And that's about it.
6) Pause the game. This might seem like a cheap strategy, but trust me - it
helps a LOT when the screen is filled from top to bottom and is invaluable if
you're stricken by a momentary fit of insanity and like me decide to try
completing the game on Master settings.
7) Completing the game on Easy unlocking the Sound, Movie, and Side Story
sections. Normal seems to do nothing, and I have no idea about Master.
Stage-by-Stage Walkthrough and Translations :
The scene opens on a strange orb-like object being carted through the city
streets. A child runs by, remarking that it's boring, until we switch to a
view of some machines which, after conversation, decide to go ahead with
their "plan" - upon which lightning strikes the orb, freeing the two
children. They promptly morph into frightening-looking armor-clad forms
(which are the first and second players, actually) and the screen fades out.
Scene 1 : Kanashiki Tenshi no Kourin (The Descent of Sorrowful Angels)
This stage is easy - use it to familiarize yourself with the basics of
gameplay. You can take out most of the enemies with well-placed Fire and
Lighting shots, so take time out to raise Hit and Combo ratings if you can.
Hot spots for enemies include the first two arches you come to sharp shifts
to corners in the middle of the stage and some parts near the end. Keep
your eyes open. There are two Fairies that can be considered difficult to
get - one during the first big screen shift and the other appears over the
arch just before the boss.
As for the boss, Wardom's easy. Just focus on blasting him and he should die
before he can close and attack you. (in which case you're the one that's
dead) Use Water on the masses of enemies that approach and you should be
We now see a young man sitting on a throne, reminiscing about he received a
piece of a pendant from two children a long time ago. He is awakened by his
loyal servant, who informs him that he is reaching the palace and that their
advance scout teams have found something. He acknowledges the information and
settles down to wait...
Scene 2 : Yasunaiki Ryu no Umi (Lake of the Quiet Dragon)
Most enemies in this stage tend to hide behind trees and other obstacles, so
keep a look out for them. Fire can pierce most barriers, though.
Again, nothing too difficult in this stage. The few enemy barrages you'll
face can be handled with a mixture of Lightning and Water, or even prevented
from occuring altogether with Fire. No hidden Fairies, but right when you see
the tall spire and the glider-type enemies appear, there is a Life Bottle WAY
at the top of the screen you can nab.
Midguld, while not exactly a pushover, isn't very difficult either. Lightning
should make short work of both it's spines and leaping fish (not all will
hit) while Fire mops up and does the main damage.
The fat king of the palace chases after the young prince and complains
about having to wait for him, and then, after being brushed off, taunts him
with cryptic comments about his mother. As the prince leaves, the king talks
about how he will wear his new war garb or something. (Not too certain
The prince is then seen talking to his loyal servant, who turns out to be
his older brother, as they consider their plans. Heading into a room similar
to the one seen in the opening, the prince muses about how he is under their
control, but "that's fine..."
Scene 3 : Imawashiki Haha no Dokutsu (Cave of the Fearsome Mother)
Lots of shifts in this stage, so watch out. There are some hairy bits here and
there which you'll need to be on your toes to avoid, the area near the boxes
and the ridges in particular. There will also be a three Fairy chain near the
start you'll have to use Fire to get all of.
Neethog is even easier than Midguld, mostly due to the fact that it will
crush it's own allies underfoot occasionally. Because of that, well-placed
Fire shots will take out the remaining crabs and do enough damage to destroy
it - the LONG time you get to fire at it when it loses it's head plating
should help too.
More memories for the prince, who is also revealed to have some kind of
strange markings on his face. He makes a visit to an underground cavern to
talk to his mother, vowing revenge on something. (I suspect the things that
are controlling him, though I can't be sure) He is then notified of one or
two targets (first and second player again) which are closing in on the
capital. He cannot believe this, but leaves the matter to his servant again,
while muttering "gods or devils, no matter which, I must hurry..."
Scene 4 : Fukaki no Heigen (Wispy Plains)
This is where the game starts getting hard. Lots of enemies all over the
place...well, first things first. Your main problems in this stage will be
caused by both the spider-like walkers and their ground escorts - take them
out quick. Besides that, wait for the gliders to appear fully before hitting
them, as they don't present much of a target from afar.
Aumdra is one hell of a boss...you can tell just by looking at it. ^_^ Some
things to remember :
1) Not all the flyers it sends out will hit, but the ones that look like
fans will. Use Lightning.
2) Only firing at the lower section or the city on top counts as damage.
3) Cannon fire tends to arc at strange angles from the far left and rights,
so keep your guard up. When you're circling the turrets themselves, the close
distance to them allows them to fire almost without warning, so keep your
Water handy.
The prince stages a coup d'etat, taking control of the entire capital city,
ordering everyone to ready a defense against the invaders.
Scene 5 : Horabi Yuku Okan E (Towards the Capital of Destruction)
You're probably going to have to accept taking about a bar or two of damage
before even getting to the main part of the stage due to the falling
boulders - if you've never played this stage before, you won't know which
will hit. If you have, two Fire shots will destroy each one. If you've gotten
this far, you really don't need my help any more, but there are a few things
you should look out for - two Life Bottles at the bridge (use Fire - they're
tough to get) and a hard Fairy to find is just above the entrance to the
Once inside, I'd advise you to stop worrying about points and Fairies
altogether and concentrate on surviving - because there are a LOT, and I do
mean a LOT, of enemies in there. Furthermore, the flying enemies which you
don't destroy will return and cause you more trouble later, which is Not Good
when the screen is as cluttered as it's going to be. You'll have to know how
to use all your weapons well to get through here, and even after that your
troubles aren't over, because who should turn up but...
...Ildon, who's your toughest boss to date. He'll send streams\bunches of
energy blasts at you that any weapon can take out, but you have to know how
to use them right; hit in when in a bunch with Fire, disperse with Lightning
and strafe with Water. Ildon also has a nasty attack in which he jumps forwards
and claws you - nothing you can do about that, so take the opportunity to
Fire at him. If you can get used to his jumping about the screen he should go
down eventually.
The prince, having attained the throne, indulges in his favorite pastime -
you guessed it, musing. ^_^ The jokes aside, the final stage is set as the
prince is carted off for his own safety and the two invaders close on the
Scene 6 : Shime Tame ni Umarete (Born to Die)
Considering the amount of Life Bottles there are in the early bits of the
last level, it isn't THAT hard...don't let your guard down, though. Water
will come in handy in taking out the masses of enemies due to it's fast
firing speed. Get to the inner sanctum and it's face to face with the last
few bosses.
Maldel is TOUGH. He has three attacks - a spread of green orbs of lightning
which can be neutralized by a Fire blast at the outset and Water later,
columns of purple electricity that Fire shots to the bottom of counter, and
the worst - dark purple flares which hang in the air and then track and
fire. Either use Water or Lightning on those FAST, or they will ALL hit you.
He's got a lot of life, but hammer at him long enough and he'll go down,
which brings us to...
Retraseal, who's the appetizer before the main course mainly because he's
weak. Weak, you say? Yup. He's got some damn thick armor which only Fire can
pierce, but he has only two attacks - pinkish fireballs which you MUST use
Lightning to disperse before they hit, and a large fireball which a single
Fire shot takes out. Once you master his pattern he's easy - counter his
attacks with the respective weapons and Fire at him when he's prancing around
the stage. Retraseal is also much more vulnerable on his left to right climb
up the screen and can be dangerous on his normal run (lots of fireballs) and
sharp right turns. (fast shots)
You really didn't think he was the last boss, did you? Well, your suspicions
are confirmed when the real one makes his appearance. If you thought the
first two bosses were hard...to top it off, you only get one Treasure Gem
with a Life Bottle. Again, three main attacks for this guy - a huge mass of
green fireballs which you must use BOTH Lightning and Water to take out, a
long stream of fire which Water counters, and extremely fast green swords
that you use Fire for. (For the last one, note that only three out of the
ten or so that he fires will actually hit.) He will raise his left arm before
using the fire stream, but give no warning for the swords and lightning. He's
actually very predictable, but the speed at which he attacks, along with the
incredibly-long life bar, make this a last boss to remember.
Once killed, the game switches to the ending sequence. The prince lies dead
among the rubble of the once-grand capital,
And that's about it.

It's clear from the outset of Max Payne 3 that our cleverly christened protagonist is not in a happy place.
It's been 10 years since he avenged the death of his wife and daughter, and he can still think of nothing else. Drowning in lethal mix of booze and despair, Max – now a bit craggier, a little greyer and slightly broader around the waist – leaves his old life behind to start anew as a bodyguard in São Paulo, Brazil, where he takes a job protecting a family of local celebrities. But the new setting does little good. Chasing pills with whisky, he seems on a mission of self destruction set to rival Nicolas Cage's character in Leaving Las Vegas.
Little changes when his employers come under unexpected attack and a wife is kidnapped. Still thinking about the other women he's failed to save, Max sets out after her, but he's far from his best. He undertakes missions drunk and stoned, wearing his insobriety as a badge of honour even as he fears it may be costing innocent people their lives.
On the other hand, Max's intoxicants may partly explain his uncanny ability to view events in "bullet time," a feature from the first two games in the series carried forward in style here. He fires with deadly precision while sliding down roofs, hanging off helicopter skids, and "shoot-dodging," exhibiting a reckless abandon that even trained Hollywood stuntmen would do well not to emulate.
The slick slow motion effects should be all the evidence the series' fans need that Rockstar Games, which has taken over stewardship of Max from Finnish originator Remedy Entertainment, hasn't messed with the franchise's core formula – this despite the game's marked overhaul in outward appearance.
The original games' graphic novel aesthetic is mostly gone. Comic panel storytelling and speech bubbles are out, replaced by movie-like cut-scenes in which key words and phrases from the dialogue flash stylishly in text form to pound home their importance.
And we've been given a world that's at once glossier and grittier than those of its precursors, with photorealistic levels set in shining office towers and rooftop bars as well as within the rambling chaos of São Paulo's ramshackle favelas.
But Max is still irrefutably Max; a gruff-toned and brooding widower. He provides a near-constant voice over that deftly shifts between unexpectedly sharp insights into human nature and darkly comical self-deprecation. He's disgusting yet somehow cool; deeply pitiable but also fearsome. Most importantly, he's likeable – a borderline antihero deserving of a sympathetic, perhaps even cheering audience.
What's more, Rockstar – a studio known primarily for sprawling, open-world games such as those in the Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead series – has taken ownership of the franchise's decidedly linear format. Every moment and location has a purpose. There is no fat or waste, no getting mired in pointless repetition. Each mission feels new, each scene fresh. We may be lead down an inalterable path, but it's one I think is well worth following, if not for the taught narrative than for the finely choreographed gunplay.
Of course, in a market cluttered with shooting games of all ilks, players have developed their own tastes. Some may not take to a game that expects players to swallow the notion that terminal wounds can be healed instantly by a bottle of painkillers, or one that frequently pauses play in order to cut to angles that show a more spectacular view of the grisly carnage. A realistic combat simulation Max Payne 3 is not.
That said, the action isn't quite as run-and-gun as it has been in earlier games. A new and smartly implemented covering mechanic makes gunfights more strategic than before, forcing players to pause and consider their options while catching their breath.
Don't take too long, though. The game's enemies are cunning, and quick to flank and throw grenades. I was frequently astounded by their tactics, especially one scene in which an enemy drew my fire by popping his head out of cover too quickly for me to take a bead on, acting as a decoy while others moved up on my blind side.
Another welcome addition is a soft-lock targeting system that doesn't snap your reticule to an enemy, as most do, but instead gives it a helping nudge. It's a clever middle ground that could find traction among both those who write off typical console-style target assist modes as cheating and more casual players who'd like to experience a more manual control.
Interestingly, the soft lock system has been carried into the game's multiplayer as well (matches are smartly sorted by style so that free aimers aren't mixed with auto-lockers). Truth be told, though, I've spent little time online. The action is a bit too frenetic for my liking. From what I've experienced play seems to push players to be constantly on the move, and those in possession of better reflexes hold a significant advantage.
However, gamers who cue to this fast-paced play will get to have fun with some unusual – dare I say innovative? – match types, the most curious of which is Gang Wars. This is a mode made up of multiple rounds with varying objectives, from standard territory defence and deathmatches to challenges in which one team might need to flee from the other or assassinate specific targets. There's also what looks to be a deep levelling system, complete with weapon upgrades and "grinds" – side tasks that play out over multiple matches and earn players extra experience points in their quest to level up.
Even if you don't take to online play there's still plenty to squeeze out of the game beyond its story mode – which, it's worth noting, bears a second play through, if only to track down all of the golden weapon collectibles or find every last piece of hidden evidence, which add flavour to the plot in the form of surprising revelations and odd side stories. There's also the Score Attack mode, where you can zoom through story chapters with the goal of racking up points through stylish and expert marksmanship, and the series' familiar New York Minute mode, where it's all about maximum carnage in minimum time.
Max's absence has been long, and his return is welcome. Rockstar's Vancouver team has managed to keep his soulful character and the franchise's distinct style intact while bringing both to modernity by adding a dash of graphical glitz and the studio's own signature panache. Our grieving, gun-happy widower remains broken, but he's in good hands.

As of today, Majestic Wine, the UK's leading wine warehouse chain, reduce their minimum requirement for free delivery from 12 to six bottles, provided the value of the order is at least £40. This new offer applies both in-store and online, and follows a recent nationwide print and television advertising campaign.
For many years, Majestic operated a strict minimum purchase of 12 bottles. That was reduced to six bottles in September 2009, with the hope that an inevitable fall in average transaction price would be countered by an increase in the number of sales. This appears to have been successfully negotiated, since the company continues to turn in impressive profits in an increasingly tough market.
The dilution of their original case-merchant proposition inevitably raises questions about whether they are gearing towards losing the minimum purchase stipulation altogether. There is no suggestion of that at present, but with the prominent adverts and easier delivery terms, there is no doubt that Majestic are working hard to win new customers.
For a round-up of comment on their current range, see Majestic's latest.

Chelsea Suites in Manhattan Delivers A Sweet Deal By Night or By Month
Living on the road for the past twenty-seven months requires me to scan and scope the best deals in each city I decide to lay my head. Manhattan can be tricky to find a good deal especially through the holiday season. After an exhaustive and diligent search, I was able to locate a gem in the heart of Chelsea. The four star Chelsea Suites at 19th are that gem.
Fully furnished, studio apartments are available to rent by the night or by the month. In a city where it is difficult to find comfort, space and convenience at a reasonable rate, Chelsea Suites at 19th delivers just that. With a full kitchen, spacious bathroom, balcony and/or patio and ample closet space, these studios are a perfect alternative to the typical small spaces in most hotels in a similar price range.
I came across the studios through Booking.com, my number one source for finding hotels while on the road. The studios do not have all of the amenities that a typical hotel would, but for the price, I couldn't pass it up. There is no daily cleaning service, but can be added for an additional fee. The location, in room amenities and cleanliness of space by far make up for the lack of big hotel chain conveniences. There is a doorman and super attendant on the premises available to help you with anything you might need and the 18th St subway stop is within one block from the front door as are many restaurants and convenient stores.
It all depends on what you are looking for and what you are used to. I typically travel alone and prefer to find clean, boutique style accommodations for a lesser price than paying for big hotel chain added amenities that I rarely use. The Chelsea Suites at 19th fit right in with what I was looking for leaving me feeling compelled to share my find with you.
Chelsea Suites at 19th

Rooms can range from $125/nt to $200/nt; Monthly all-inclusive prices start at $4100

New Zealand's national museum Te Papa said it was overjoyed to buy the item, which is stained, slightly torn and still bears the number 466 bib Snell wore in Japan.
"It's a great thrill for New Zealand and an item that has so much to tell us about our history, and the history of sport," chief executive Rick Ellis said.

Would Global Patent Protection Be Too Weak Without International Coordination?
This paper analyzes the setting of national patent policies in the global economy. In the standard model with free trade and social-welfare-maximizing governments ? la Grossman and Lai (2004), cross-border positive policy externalities induce individual countries to select patent strengths that are weaker than is optimal from a global perspective. The paper introduces three new features to the analysis: trade barriers, firm heterogeneity in terms of productivity and political economy considerations in setting patent policies.

Ninety-two percent of respondents said they were satisfied with the quality of their courses. Respondents were particularly impressed with the enthusiasm of staff, their ability to explain things clearly and to make material intellectually stimulating. They also praised the School's library and IT resources and the way courses are organised and run. The National Student Survey is carried out by Ipsos MORI and covers nearly all final year undergraduates studying for higher education qualifications in the United Kingdom. A threshold of 23 respondents and a 50 per cent response rate must be met before results are made available to the public. At Birmingham Law School, 139 of the 216 eligible students took part. The full results are available on the Unistats web-site. The (then) Head of Birmingham Law School, Professor Anthony Arnull, said: 'I am very grateful to all our students who took part in the National Student Survey this year. The results are a tribute to the effort devoted by my colleagues to meeting our students' aspirations. We will do our best to improve our performance even further in the coming year.

Swing at Sunset - Frank Vignola and Vinny Raniolo
Frank Vignola and Vinny Raniolo. Frank Vignola is a world-renowned guitarist that defies categorization, because it may actually be easier to name the artists he has not played with. He's performed with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, Donald Fagen (of Steely Dan fame), Queen Latifah, and toured with Madonna and Leon Redbone. He has done events with the Boston and New York Pops. He's played with Wynton Marsalis, Mark O'Connor, David Grisman, Tommy Emmanuel, Howard Alden and Bucky Pizzarelli.
If that's not impressive enough, he spent five years on stage every Monday night at The Iridium in New York City with none other than Les Paul (who named Vignola to his "Five Most Admired Guitarists List" for The Wall Street Journal). Recordings? He's been a featured performer on almost four dozen CDs. Music Education? He's written 18 guitar instruction books and 6 DVDs.
Currently, he's touring with a 27-year old guitarist named Vinny Raniolo and together they perform over 200 dates per year throughout the world. From Beethoven's Fifth to Swan Lake, Killing Me Softly to Dust in the Wind, and Django Reinhardt to Gershwin, there actually is a common theme– non-stop entertainment and never-ending swing. You'll be amazed before the introductory applause is over.

argo0 (277) Washington DC | August 22, 2012
At certain times it's a decent place to visit, but by and large it's a place to get drunk. The selection is so-so, certainly nothing uncommon or rare. That being said, the food is decent.
jcos (64) Maryland | August 9, 2012
If you want big German drafts, this is the place to go. Food is decent. Prices are high overall, even for DC.
mansquito (120) Nueva York, New York | July 5, 2012
Went here twice, but neither time was too spectacular. From a beer perspective, this place doesn't really have much that is all that interesting. I don't think that they ever change the tap or bottle selections (their poorly printed menus look like they have been there for years). All the beers are German macros that you can find in any half-way decent beerstore, like Franziskaner, Erdinger, Weihenstephaner. I managed to try two new beers at this place, but they were both off the very small bottle list. To add insult to injury, the beers are all very much over-priced, which I noticed is the standard for most beer gardens. The decor and stuff is pretty nice though, and the back patio looks mostly like a proper beer garden. Pretzels were ok, but kind of a rip off. Food was wicked expensive.
liebs105 (12) Alabama | May 2, 2012
Of the half-dozen places beer-oriented places we visited in DC this week, this was the least satisfying. one. We love German biergartens because of the conviviality. atmosphere, and lack of loud television sets. Germans are under this strange impression that people can actually talk to each other without the need for a television set to provide entertainment. This place was totally ruined by numerous large, LOUD television sits displaying various sporting events. The beer was overpriced and the food not particularly good. Our waitress acted like she'd rather be ANYONE else than at work. All in all, a lackluster experience. Oh, BTW, not only did it have the least interesting food and beers of the places we've visited, it resulted in the highest bill.

Perhaps not the best place to go for craft beer, but I had a pretty good time there drinking large quantities of German beer. Stayed inside, as the outside was packed when I went. May be worth heading back again sometime when I hit H Street, since this is one of the few establishments I've seen worth entering into.

Sort of a gimmicky place from a beer nerd perspective but another addition to the crazy, weird bars on H St. that are a refreshing "fuck you" to the downtown DC bars that charge cover and refuse entry for wearing sandals. Biergarten is actually what it says, a German beer garden with tons of German beer decor in the main "tavern" bar you walk into. But this is not the place to hang out- you gotta sit outside on the benches like a real beer garden. They had digital projectors running to show various sports games in giant format while I was there. There is also another bar stationed outside. In terms of beers, you can get a lot of normal, easy to find 500mL German stuff like Ayinger, Weihenstephaner, Franziskaner, Paulaner, Spaten. On tap, nothing too exciting at the time- mostly hefeweizens and probably Spaten Helles and maybe Optimator. The bottles we ordered didn't seem to fresh- pretty stale overall. I'm sure the tap list changes, but be prepared for ordering large format hefeweizens and helles lagers. Fun place, good atmosphere, and a favorite even among non beer geeks. But is it a place I would want to go very often? Not really unless a group of people wanted to go there to watch a sports game. I tried some of the food- good pretzels and mustard and what not. Didn't have a full meal here.

A lot of fun. This place has an authentic German feel. Their beers come in two options, 1/2 liter or liter. The food is mostly German but they have a great sausage sampler. Good German beer. Only problem was that the seating was uncomfortable and there was too much Spatan on the beer list.

H St is an underrated gem for beer geeks. And this while kitchy and themed it's actually a less-kitchy place in the neighborhood. As for the bar itself, the inside is barren, empty and not anything special. The outside patio is what its all about. It's big, has plenty of TVs, and fun. The servers while not the most knowledgeable on earth, for the most part were German and knew what they had on the menu. Plus our waitress was authentic in the sense that she carried out a half-dozen liter steins to the tables. The selection when I was there was still Oktoberfest stuff so not a great selection in terms of diversity, but at a German biergarten Haus themed restaurant I don't anyone should expect a diverse selection, just a ?German selection - which it succeeded greatly at, imo.

Opened in June 2010, in time for the World Cup, in the "Atlas district" in DC. It's owned by an American guy and a Lithuanian, so I wasn't sure how authentic this place would be. When the waiter spoke German, I took that as a good sign! Decent selection of tap and bottled German beers, more than the usual suspects. Beers are expensive, and the smallest size draft is half a liter. We only tried the smoked fish appetizer, which was tasty, but I will return to try the food. Nice addition to the neighborhood.
