Pay £2.49 a month for broadband from Direct Save Telecom
Direct Save Telecom has launched an unbelievable deal, offering broadband for just £2.49 a month!
How much do you pay for your home broadband? £20 a month? £10? Maybe even less, if you're a bargain-hunter?
Whatever you're paying, it seems that we're all routinely over-paying for Internet access. I say this because this week I've seen what must be the cheapest-ever broadband deal.
A dirt-cheap deal
Direct Save Telecom ('Direct Save') has launched Britain's best broadband deal: £2.49 a month for two whole years. That's not a misprint -- it really is offering two years of internet access for a total of £59.76, spread over 24 months.
Direct Save is an independent telephone service provider created in 2003 to offer low-cost, high-quality communications services to its customers. It aims to cut hundreds of pounds a year from the average family's telecoms bill.
Therefore, over two years, Tesco's broadband costs £108, compared to less than £60 for Direct Save's deal.
One deal that does beat Direct Save's offer is Primus Saver, which costs £1.20 a month, but adds an activation fee of £20 to your first monthly bill. Thus, in year one, this broadband costs £34.40, falling to £14.40 in year two.
Over two years, this totals £48.80, but you must transfer your landline to Primus, which charges £12.79 a month for line rental. Also, Primus Saver limits your data usage to 20Gb a month.
Digging deeper into Direct Save
However, delving deeper into this deal, there are more benefits on offer, but also more charges to pay. Here's Direct Save's broadband offer in full:
- £2.49 a month
- Minimum contract length of 24 months
- Must take Direct Save's line rental at £12.85 a month (BT charges £14.60)
- Up to 24Mb broadband speeds (typically 13Mb)
- 20Gb monthly data usage
- Free UK calls evenings and weekends
- Free set-up (worth £24.95)
- Free wireless router (worth £35)
- UK-based freephone broadband support, 24/7
- UK-based customer services
Overall, this is a pretty good deal for broadband. However, there is a £50 cancellation deal if you terminate your contract early. Also, Direct Save's telephone charges, while cheaper than BT, are much higher than those charged by alternative call providers such as 1899.com. Here are Direct Save's call costs:
Monthly line rental |
£12.85 |
Monthly call plan |
Free |
UK calls weekends |
Free |
UK calls evenings |
Free |
UK calls daytime |
7.5p per minute |
UK mobile calls |
15p per minute |
0845 & 0870 calls |
8p per minute |
Call connection charge |
13.1p |
While cheaper than BT, these call charges are still far too high for my liking. Hence, I suspect this is where Direct Save makes its money over the two-year life of its contract. In effect, steep call charges help to bring down the cost of Direct Save's broadband to just £2.49. Thus, if I were to switch to Direct Save, then I'd always use an alternative call provider when dialling.
Also, I've read mixed reviews online of Direct Save's reliability and customer service, so you should definitely do your own research before signing up.
Always check the contract
Thanks to what I call 'confusion marketing', choosing any utility service -- such as gas and electricity, home phone or broadband -- is incredibly complicated. Each deal has its own hidden benefits, bonuses and charges, which make it almost impossible to compare deals without outside help.
That's why I would urge you to use an independent, expert comparison service, such as that provided by our award-winning partner, BroadbandChoices.co.uk.

Now he might have had suicide attempt earlier about a couple years earlier.
After domestic dispute his wife where he was in jail with drug free -- -- off -- cliff said he fell asleep and we'll we'll have to see.
Now the -- a whole new light on that incident.
But I cannot believe the level of sorrow.
People -- to -- out touched his life under the outstanding.
High school player.
And that -- -- -- -- American college player and number one pick as a pro for the San Diego Chargers over the Miami Dolphins and finishing up.
With the New England Patriots in doing nothing but experiencing excess of leadership along the way.
A tremendous entrepreneur were far too pissed he truly will be missed but the biggest question is will cause a guy 43 years old and the -- -- -- the -- is like for the successful -- business.
And great foundation to take his own life.
Sadly I believe all -- -- point us back to a series of head injuries because depression and oftentimes it's -- sadly -- suicide.
Because head injuries of the number one issue of the NFL it be addressed by the league deliberately that is why so many former players are coming together.
To sue the league for not telling them the dangers of playing with concussions.
I am not sure where this investigation -- for all I know we had bouts of depression.
Maybe -- secret financial problems we don't know about.
But in my logically this to one thing football head injuries twenty year career as a impact -- -- I gotta wonder what football's gonna do about this what it does for those lawsuits and what they can do with the equipment to make these guys say it's a bigger stronger and faster than ever before.
That story's not going away.
Number two Roger Clemens trials certainly taken a turn in his direction indeed that is testimony and they want to look bad he said Roger Clemens -- to use HDH.
In order to -- back from -- injuries quicker and he did.
Later on he was asked by defense and cross examination is -- -- chance that you misunderstood Roger Clemens -- he -- saying that.

Top Egyptian security officials defended army and police actions in clashes Monday in Cairo that led to the deaths of more than 50 people, saying they were defending the Republican Guard headquarters against attackers.
Health Ministry official Khaled al-Khatib said 51 died and 435 others were wounded when Egyptian security forces fought with supporters of deposed President Mohamed Morsy and the Muslim Brotherhood outside the headquarters.
Witnesses said the military and police fired as protesters took a break from holding a vigil at the Republican Guard headquarters to perform their dawn prayers. Morsy was reportedly detained in the building after his arrest Wednesday.
But Interior Ministry spokesman Hani Abdel-Latif and army spokesman Col. Ahmed Mohammed Ali said security forces were under attack. Ali said that around 4 a.m. "an armed group" used bombs, rocks and bullets to attack the area and the people safeguarding the headquarters building.
Speaking to reporters, the officers said it's the job of the security forces to protect protesters. But, they said, what unfolded was an assault and they had to embark on defending the institution.
Ali dismissed claims from the pro-Morsy opposition, such as the killing of children, and warned of "lying," "rumors," and "psychological warfare." Video meant to support the security forces' position was shown at the news conference. They seemed to show a few protesters who may have had firearms, but the context of the images is hard to discern.
The Freedom and Justice Party's deputy chairman, Esam al Aryan, said on the group's Facebook site that four children were killed.
Speaking about the presence of children before dawn, Ali asked what kind of people would bring their children to that location at such a time.
"The Egyptian armed forces kills only its enemies. It will never kill its own children," Ali said.
Mirna El Helbawi, a witness who lives on a street near the Republican Guard headquarters, saw violence unfold in the area but stressed no one had been performing prayers at the time. Security forces, she said, arrived at the scene, apparently prompting pro-Morsy people to beat on street lamps and shout, "They're here. They're here."
Soldiers approaching a nearby mosque tore down stone barricades erected by pro-Morsy groups and fired tear gas. Pro-Morsy protesters, atop the mosque, threw rocks and fired shots. She said she saw one security forces member go down and then be taken away by his comrades.
While she heard shotgun bursts, El Helbawi said she is not sure which group initiated the shooting. But she said she is sure both groups were shooting at each other.
She also saw fire inside the mosque, a flame that died down and then flared up. She saw an ambulance arrive to get people out of the mosque and about a half dozen bodies were retrieved, she said. Several people were arrested.
Amnesty International called Monday for an urgent independent investigation into the 51 deaths.
"There is a crucial need for independent and impartial investigations that can be trusted by all sides. However, Egypt's authorities have a poor track record of delivering truth and justice for human rights violations," said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, Deputy Director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme, in a news release.
Victims treated at a chaotic facility
The Monday morning violence further deepened a crisis in the country -- the Arab world's most populous -- where Morsy supporters have been squaring off daily with security forces after his ouster in a military coup last week.
CNN counted at least eight bullet-riddled bodies and up to 40 wounded at the chaotic emergency facility in the Egyptian capital, down the street from the site of the shooting. The upper bodies of the victims appeared to be peppered with shotgun pellets and bullet wounds.
Doctors tended to the victims, performing surgeries in many cases before shipping them out to other facilities. Egyptian flags were draped over those who did not survive.
CNN shot footage of men bleeding and bandaged on gurneys and blood on the ground. There were not enough ambulances to take all the injured to hospitals, CNN's Karl Penhaul reported on the scene.
An Interior Ministry statement earlier said two security force members -- a lieutenant and a recruit -- were shot and killed. It is unclear if the Health Ministry toll includes these personnel.
Reacting to the shooting at the Republican Guard headquarters, the Al-Nour party -- which supported Morsy's ouster -- withdrew from all talks about forming an interim government.
"We will not remain silent on the Republican Guard massacre," party spokesman Nader Bakkar said. Interim President Adly Mansour ordered the formation of a committee to investigate the incident, according to state-run Nile TV.
Later, news outlet Al Jazeera posted a statement online on its English Facebook page speaking out against what it said was the intimidation of its journalists covering the unrest.
Dozens of journalists have been rounded up and detained by authorities, the post says. Journalists' offices have been raided, "threatening leaflets" have been scattered outside Al Jazeera's offices and "Al Jazeera Arabic's correspondent" was "hounded out of a government press conference by attendees who applauded" when the event ended, the post says.

All hail Warchief Vol'jin.
Heads gonna roll, mon'.
"For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty, many souls must be trampled." Hunter S. Thompson
GAMON KILLS NAZGRIM, GAMON! I'm guessing he's an important tauren lore character who has hidden in orgrimmar under the identity of "Gamon" the useless tauren who gets killed alot.
So far I don't see anything "Fist-pump" worthy on alliance side. I can't say I'm surprised.
"I'm not mad at all! I'm just differently sane!!" - The Joker, Batman and Robin #13
"Who overcomes by force, hath overcome but half his foe." - John Milton, Paradise Lost
When writing tides of war, a titanium dildo with sharp barbs was shoved in Garrosh's arse.
In 5.1, a button was pushed that extended the spikes 3cm.
In 5.3, the thing was twisted inside Mr Hellscream
In 5.4 it was yanked out and the resulting hole filled with sand, acid and molten glass.
Throughout Wrath and Cata, Garrosh was my favourite character but Blizz being Blizz, it was not meant to be.
George RR Martin doesn't hold a candle to Blizzard in my eyes for this one.
Great. So Garrosh is bat shit insane, and we're gonna have to sit through another half a raid of dragging goddamn Thrall around.
This is the day ive been waiting for since mop came out im literally jizzing from a huge loregasm
As for my take on what i heard
Yes thrall is gonna confront garrosh (gotta say i loved the speech garrosh gave about the true horde)
As for general Nazgrim im absolutely gutted that he is going to die and by gamon but its the way he should die in battle unlike his counterpart admiral taylor who will prolly die of old age and incontinence
im hoping jaina gets hers
Plus the thing that has intrigued me is the whole sylvanas and lorethmar thing when he says where is this blood coming from does this mean someone has tried to assassinate lorethamar im looking at you sylvanas
Oh calm down already. He's Horde, and part of this. It's his responsibility to make things right. People don't want Thrall around but they also are mad that he made Garrosh Warchief.
Why? Because she opposes the very silly *No true scotsman Horde* nonsense? Please....im hoping jaina gets hers
I'm sorry I listened to the files multiple times and I still think Jaina, Lor'Themar, and Taran Zhu all die. This is going by sound files alone, mind you which as we have seen can be misleading. But those are definitely death rattles mixed in with the combat grunts.
I remember when people said Anduin was going to die. STFU. We dont know who the hell dies, aside from Nazgrim and Garrosh most likely.

The U.S. intelligence community is monitoring a specific stream of classified information suggesting the terror group believed to be behind the Nairobi shopping mall attack may be planning new attacks in East Africa, particularly in Kenya, CNN has learned.
Two U.S. officials said the information does not include details of a target or date. But it is the first detailed indication that they may have information to validate threats made by Somali-based al-Shabaab that more attacks were planned after the attack on the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi.
"We are concerned," one official said.
"There are data points that worry us. Our intelligence is focused on how do we prevent any more attacks," the other official said.
Both have access to the latest intelligence. They declined to be identified due to the sensitive nature of the information.
Both said the classified information is separate from public claims and tweets by al-Shabaab threatening another attack.
The new information emerged subsequent to the attack and standoff at the Westgate Mall between last Saturday and this past Tuesday that killed at least 67 people.
It is also part of the reason for the State Department's worldwide caution notice on Wednesday.
The notice said "credible information indicates terrorist groups also seek to continue attacks against U.S. interests in the Middle East and North Africa. The U.S. government remains highly concerned about possible attacks against Americans, facilities, businesses, and perceived U.S. and Western interests."
The State Department on Friday reissued a separate warning -- first put out in July -- about travel specific to Kenya, saying Americans already there or planning to go there should "evaluate their personal security situation."
While the officials wouldn't discuss classified intelligence, it's well understood that the U.S. monitors and intercepts telephone and Internet communications, which generally spike after a successful attack. All of the so-called chatter is being analyzed for clues.
CNN also learned military and security personnel at the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi -- within minutes of realizing the severity of the mall attack -- tapped their emergency stockpile of gear and began providing Kenyan forces with night vision equipment and tear-gas type riot-control chemicals.
The Pentagon still has not spoken publicly about any effort to help the Kenyans, but several U.S. officials confirmed those details to CNN.
A priority now is to gather fingerprint and DNA information from the scene to try to determine the identities of any of the dead attackers, as well as perhaps suspects who fled the scene, according to an Obama administration official with access to the latest information.
U.S. and international experts are assisting in that effort. But there is still no confirmation that any of the attackers were American citizens as al-Shabaab has claimed, U.S. officials said.
So far, it appears there was no direct connection yet between the attackers and the East African cell of al Qaeda. That cell, however, remains under close scrutiny by American intelligence.

"God atmosfære nær stranden for 12 haugalendinger"Anmeldt av Gerd Sissel Le av "Sveio" den feb 26, 2012
Veldig bra hotell til en rimelig pris. Vi stortrivdes i 2 dager. God mat. God service når vi forstod til hvilket tempo alle jobbet i!
"Bra pent rent men dårlig wifi"Anmeldt av Christopher T av "Oslo" den feb 20, 2012
Hotellområdet var pent og ryddig, rom og restaurant like så. WIFI (internet) var imidlertidig veldig dårlig og til tider ute av drift. Man kunne koble opp, men kom ingen vei ut på internett. Rommene var store og bra, eget kjøkken og stort bad og stue. Soverommet like så. Ca 15 minutter å gå ned til Yacht-klubben, ca 20 minutter å gå opp. Går gratis shuttle fra hotell til stranda ved Yacht-klubben og til Speightstown, nærmeste tettsted.

"South Gap - right in the middle of The Gap"Anmeldt av Unni - u9 ;o) av "Trondheim - Norway" den mai 12, 2011
This was my 21st visit to Barbados, and as I hadn't stayed at this hotel since mid 90's it was very exciting to come back. Though the staff was new to me they had the same friendly and serviceminded attitude as the previous staff. I got a studio 3rd floor (as per request) with a beautiful view of the Caribbean Sea. Unfortunately this hotel doesn't have beach access, and I really missed the stairs down to the sea which used to be there about 12-15 years ago... Otherwise earplugs are recommended, cause otherwise it's quite difficult to fall asleep before 3 am due to the noise from "The Gap". However, that was just as expected (and of course not the hotel's fault). All in all a very pleasant stay and I will definately return to South Gap Hotel! :o)

We had a fantastic 2 week holiday at the Radisson Aquatica - I have never come across more helpful, friendly and polite staff and they really went out of their way to ensure we had a great time.

"Nice Stay"
Barbados is a beautiful island and the beach on which the Radisson is on is fantastic (warm, crystal clear water with few rocks). The hotel has recently been updated so the rooms look nice but lack a mini refrigerator which we managed to receive after requesting from front desk. Regina at the front desk was very helpful and courteous. Breakfast has […] many selections available which is a nice addition. Not much to do at the hotel after 6pm but the Hilton is a short walk and we lucked out one evening with live music there. Overall if you are looking for some rest and relaxation you will get it here.

"Best resort beach"
The Radisson Aquatica is very conveniently located. If you enjoy walking (despite the heat), it is a 25 minute walk to Bridgetown and a 15 minute walk to the boardwalk near some great restaurants (Tapas). It is also about a 15-20 minute taxi ride to St. Lawrence Gap. In addition to a warm, welcoming, and helpful staff, the hotel itself is situated on […] the best beach in our opinion. Carlisle Bay is beautiful and the soft white sands is great. The hotel provides towels, beach chairs, and umbrellas for your convenience.

"Better restaurant and room service please"
Restaurant hours is an issue during our 5-days trip in Barbados. Upon check-in at the hotel, we asked the front desk for advice about restaurants but no one told us those restaurants only opened from 6:00 pm. We tried the two within easy walking distance but no luck. Having no choice we walked further and found a little food stand in a virtually dead […] little plaza with 4 or 5 other food stands that were not opened. Fortunately those wraps we got are quite good. And this is how we got our first meal in Barbados. The next morning we thought we should try the breakfast of the restaurant in our own hotel which offered a good view of the beach and the ocean. I cried after I took the first bite of my steak. Thank god that the tour we joined later provided good lunch. Thereafter we just had to taxi in and out to pricy restaurants. Other foibles are that one day our room was not cleaned yet when we returned from the beach around 3pm, and the other day we found the room door was not fully closed and we could push in. Also, we were given a joined-room that we could hear all the conversation of the young men next door (and vice versa I believe). Aquatica have the potential and we do hope Radisson will start improving from their restaurant and room service (if any). Les merVerifisert Expedia-gjesteanmeldelse
"A week of true Paradise for adults and a child"
Staff was friendly, attentive and accommodating. Very clean lobby and hotel. Great location. Nights are quite and calm. I love the oceanfront access. The restaurant extends out over the beach and ocean. Beautiful views and sound of the ocean as there are no windows. You can sit in the sun or a shady area while eating. Expensive menu and very small portions. […] Be sure you take extra fruit or muffins after you eat. For that reason alone I wish there was a kitchen area in the room. We had to request a refrigerator. It was quickly in our room that afternoon. Taxis are a must to get to St.Lawrence Gap but you can walk to Bridgetown, even from the beach. Would definitely stay next trip! Be sure you check the colored flags on the beach near the lifeguards. Les merVerifisert Expedia-gjesteanmeldelse

"A Jewel in Barbados"
After reading reviews of several hotels on the south and west coasts, I settled on the Aquatica (formerly the Grand Barbados Beach Resort). Pay the little bit extra to have breakfast included in the room. This option is VERY WELL WORTH IT! In addition to the continental breakfast bar, which had a very large selection of items, we were also given the […] opportunity to order from the menu, which also had a very nice selection. The staff is lovely. I will return to the Aquatica the next time I visit Barbados. Don't forget to watch the race horses go for their morning swim right beside the hotel. Also, there is a place right beside the hotel where for $25 BDS you can have use of the kayaks and snorkeling equipment all day! Les merVirkelige gjesteanmeldelser

"Just as good as the Hilton down the beach"
The hotel still has a long pier with a pavillion at the end that looks like a disaster hit it, which it did. But the rest of the hotel has been upgraded, refurbished and now looks very good. Elevators are not air conditioned, and seem in need of an update, but other than that the rest of the hotel has been completely redone. It is now comparable (in […] the rooms) to the hilton just down the beach which charges twice as much or more. It is a great hotel, close to downtown, right on Carlyle Bay, and certainly competitive on price for what you get. Restaurant was pricey, but so is the hilton. I would stay here again, especially if I had an event at the hilton, but did not want to pay anywhere near as much. Les merVerifisert Expedia-gjesteanmeldelse
"Cheap but clean hotel - good for a weekend only"
Recently bought by Radisson and rebranded. Refurbishment been made and hotel is no frills but clean. Elevators need some upkeep but location by the beach is great and staff are friendly. OK for a weekend if you're not after pampering and don't want to eat where you stay. Would not want to stay a week here though as options are limited in the hotel.

"Excellent place to stay"
Right on an awesome beach -- swim, paddle-boat, kayak, wake up every morning to the sound of waves breaking against the shore. The beach is kind of cordoned off of the rest of the main beach, plus there's always a hotel security person nearby, so you feel very safe to lounge by the pool or the beach till very late at night. The hotel gym is state-of-the-art […] and very well-equipped. Water sports gear rental is right next door. The snorkelling area by the main beach where the commercial snorkelling trips would take you to see a sunken boat and turtles, is about 200m or so to the north of the hotel. If you know where exactly the spot is you can do it yourself for free with the proper gear without paying them a hefty charge. Although this hotel is not right at any of the "popular" places, the nearest bus stop is just 2 min walk away, and you can get to the downtown Bridgetown or the St Lawrence gap/Dover beach area or the Rockley beach/Chefette area, all more or less 15 mins away on very frequent #11 "ZR" buses, or the big goverment buses that run on hwy 7 (aka the Bay st, Hastings st). The same #11 bus can take you to the Oistins fish fry places, takes about 20-30 minutes. The airport is a bit sparsely connected by bus (2 routes with buses running every hour), check the schedule posted by the eastbound Chefette/Rockley beach stop for exact times. Very safe neighborhood. Les merVirkelige gjesteanmeldelser

Our stay at grand barbados beach hotel was pleasant. We only stayed for 2 nights but the rooms were very clean, seemed to be newly renovated. They changed the name to Aquatica the second day of our stay. Staff was nice but did not seemed too happy about their jobs. Not that they were rude, they just didnt showed much enthusiasm with anything. The hotel […] was very quiet, not many people during our stay. Beach and pool was quite small but it was very relaxing. Down fall was that they did not have an in room fridge, did not replenish the soap, shampoo and conditioner. In addition they did not offer hotel slippers. The major attraction to this hotel is the complimentary wifi they provided as many others i have researched required additional fees. There is a blue fish sandwich kiosk/hut in the parking lot right beside this hotel and I must say it was THE BEST! Its a must try!!

During tough economic times, many people find themselves having to scale back on items that they'd normally indulge in. Whether it's that special bottle of wine with dinner, that new car you've always wanted or a much-needed home renovation, there's not always enough cash to satisfy your wants and needs. Luckily, chocolate gifts are always affordable, and they're more than capable of picking up your mood when you could use a boost.
According to BBC News, chocolate is consistently a food item that is more or less recession-proof. People buy chocolate to treat themselves to a bit of luxury, yet it's perfectly affordable and you don't have to search far and wide for it. An added benefit is that new ingredients and recipes pop up every day, meaning there's a wide variety of exciting chocolate products to try.
Many people make chocolate a part of their daily routines, just indulging in a small portion of the highest quality. You probably know that eating chocolate makes you feel good, but it's not just because of the taste. Researchers have found that eating chocolate causes the brain to produce endorphins, which are chemicals that make us feel good and alleviate stress. It's no wonder that chocolate is the most craved food among American women, according to CNN.
In times of stress, pain or anxiety, chocolate can act as a temporary relief because it gives us pleasure and helps us relax. If you ever find yourself struggling to get through the trials of the day, a bit of chocolate can act as a pick-me-up, and you don't have to feel guilty about breaking the bank. As long as you keep your portion small, there's no reason to feel ashamed of enjoying your daily treat. Consider treating yourself with chocolate dipped strawberries, cherries or even truffles. Dark chocolate has a lot of antioxidants that are good for your health, so you may want to think about forgoing those milk and white varieties to get the most benefits. Limit yourself to one piece a day in the afternoon, when most people experience a lull in their energy and spirits. You'll feel satisfied without any of the guilt associated with splurging on other types of rewards, like a spa appointment, massage or manicure.

Contemporary free standing sculpture
Saint Kilian's church was constructed in 1450 in the middle of the old town of Korbach and ranks among the significant Gothic hall churches in the heart of Germany. The church is the domicile of the town's full-time choir master and organist and therefore the centre of Protestant church music in the region. The new instrument should of course meet the requirements of the church's role.
The principal's wish was clear from the beginning: the new organ was to be designed as a contemporary free standing sculpture. For the exterior design, the board hired architect Götz Faubel-Gäb - impressed and inspired by his earlier design of the
Kuhn organ in Essen
(2004). An intense design phase in close collaboration with the architect began. After numerous drafts and model tests, the concept was finished and awarded the principal's unreserved agreement.
The result impresses by a harmonic interplay between Gothic and an elegant organ design with slat shaped pipe shades. As a free standing construction, the organ is accessible from all sides, which is rare. With its broad stylistic spectrum, the tonal conception corresponds to the versatile requirements of Protestant church music.
The Korbach project is another example of how a great achievement may originate in the inspiring collaboration between organ builders and architects. With this in mind, the new organ in Saint Killian's church is not only a contemporary instrument which combines a variety of musical styles but also the result of a professional synthesis of two different crafts.

In 1812, four men at Cambridge University met for breakfast. What began as an impassioned meal grew into a new scientific revolution, in which these men -- who called themselves "natural philosophers" until they later coined "scientist" -- introduced four major principles into scientific inquiry. Historian and philosopher Laura Snyder tells their intriguing story.
Laura Snyder weaves tales of Victorian-era scientists that have been described as "fit for Masterpiece Theater." Full bio »

Self Titled
I've always had a special place in my heart for Sodom. Like their fellow countrymen Kreator, Sodom emerged from the nascent early eighties German scene playing a meaner, faster form of metal that was far more brutal than what was going on in the States at that time. Along with Sepultura, both bands would somewhat temper that proto death metal assault in the late eighties by adding more groove elements, thus marking the transition to the soon to erupt worldwide thrash scene. But, despite a very similar sound and Kreator's incestuous habit of swiping Sodom guitarists, there were some differences between the two.
Unlike the pure strain of aggressive thrash Kreator would come to popularize, Sodom always had a big Venom/Motorhead influence. Of course the cover of Motorhead's "Iron Fist" on the classic Persecution Mania album makes this influence all too clear but not a single Sodom album goes by without a few dirty rock 'n roll romps. Another difference was that, despite the evaporation of thrash metal's popularity in the mid nineties, Sodom never "experimented" with slower, pop metal material like Kreator and almost every other famous metal band from the eighties. Instead they single mindedly stuck with their speedy thrash attack, which after the seminal Agent Orange, has ranged in quality from decent to arguably great in the form of 1999's Code Red.
On this latest effort we find Sodom doing what they do best if in a bit different way. First the low end crunch they've been using on the last few albums is gone in favor of a much cleaner tone. Whether this is a positive or negative really depends on which sound you prefer but to my ears it sounds slightly anemic, lacking the solid bass backbone of past releases, but still pretty meaty.
Another change is the overall pace of the album. Maybe old age is finally setting in or they finally got bored playing the same thing but, outside of rippers like "Wanted Dead" and "Lords Of Depravity", the majority of songs never even come close to the typical speed Sodom usually operates at. Instead we get plenty of mid-paced cuts that stay true to their trash roots with big grooves and solid lead guitar accents but fail to bring the level of ferocity usually associated with this band. Once again this can be looked at as a positive or negative. On the positive side it allows them to bring some more distinct riffing and intricacy to their song craft but on the negative it doesn't pack the overwhelming punch of their best work.
Lastly, they seemed to ditch the rock n' roll thing completely. I'm guessing they did it on purpose as it wouldn't fit the mood of this record but it's surely missed. It's always been an element of their style I've enjoyed but I understand the need to maintain an overall feel and not just toss a random song on there at the end (which Sodom has done quite frequently!).
One interesting twist, found on "Lay Down The Law", is the incorporation of a more traditional black metal songwriting style of blurred minor chords spilling into each other with a wave of tremolo picking washing over it. This is something totally new for them and, coupled with a different vocal approach than Angelripper's typical thrash bark, makes for one of the most unique songs on the disc. Whether it's a harbinger of a style shift in their future or flash in the pan remains to be seen but it's not totally unwelcome here.
This is a slower, more sedate Sodom than I'm used to but it's still a well written thrash record with plenty of head bangin' riffs even if your head is moving a little slower than in the past. And although I'm not a huge fan of some of the changes they've made on this record, it might appeal more to fans that enjoy a less extreme version of thrash. Due to this I would say this release isn't essential but if you're a fan of this band or style of music you'll find plenty to like here.

Attorney David Corn weighs in on the Tarek Mehanna case for the New York Review of Bo0ks blog. Corn, who argued Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project, explains that the case against Mehanna rests on that flawed Supreme Court ruling, resulting in a 17-year sentence for an American citizen for translating an essay that was already widely available:
Why should those of us who have no interest in reading "39 Ways to Serve and Participate in Jihad" care? For the same reason that we should care about the prosecution of a Klansman or an anarchist for their speech. History shows that free speech is fundamental to a robust democracy, and that if the government can punish expression because of its political content, it will use that power to go after its enemies. Today's enemy may be anyone who shows sympathy with jihadism, but who knows who tomorrow's enemy will be.
I've received far more praise than criticism for my Sunday column on Mehanna's case, but even some who are generally sympathetic to my politics have questioned my coming to the defense of someone routinely described as a Jihadist sympathizer. I think that comes from an ignorance of the facts in this case, along with a lack of national media attention. There would be a lot more interest, I think, if national media leaders saw this as a significant legal test of restrictions on First Amendment rights enacted in response to 9/11.
