Pamplin Clay Tobacco PipesClay tobacco pipes are a common artifact type found in historic Euro-American archaeological sites. These inexpensive and disposable items were generally manufactured, used, and thrown away within a very short span of time, and individual styles can often be traced to specific manufacturer and period of production. Thus, clay pipes can serve as a valuable tool in helping to date a historic archaeological site. Clay pipes imported from England typically have a small bowl and long stem and are made of kaolin (a fine, white clay); this type of pipe is common to Colonial-period archaeological sites. A number of different kinds of clay pipes were also produced locally. A common type produced in the eastern United States in the 18th and 19th centuries has a comparatively large bowl with a short stem into which a longer stem (usually of reed) was inserted. The area of Pamplin, Virginia, is one the localities where this type is known to have been produced in large quantities. Manufactured by individual pipemakers beginning in about 1740, and by the Pamplin Smoking Pipe and Manufacturing Company, which operated from 1878 until 1951, pipes from the Pamplin area are distinguished by the high-quality, deep red, local clay from which they were made. The Akron Smoking Pipe Company of Ohio also owned a plant in Pamplin from 1890 to 1920, and produced Pamplin-type pipes during that time period. In 1972, Missouri avocational archaeologists Henry and Jean Hamilton published an article about Pamplin pipes that remains the definitive source on the subject. The Hamiltons examined 4,451 pipes from the Pamplin area (recovered from the Pamplin Company's factory grounds and from the site of a local store that sold home-industry pipes) and identified 39 styles that represented the majority of pipe forms produced in the Pamplin area from the mid-18th to mid-20th centuries. The Hamiltons' personal Pamplin pipe type collection, which includes examples of most of these forms and is now housed by the Museum of Anthropology, is presented in its entirety in this online exhibit.

Our research focuses on the study of viral associated cancers; immune responses and vaccination for chronic viral infection; viral tropism and persistence pathways to escape host immunity.
Adenoviruses can cause tumours in newborn rodents and can, therefore, be used as a model system for human cancers. By studying the relationship between the virus proteins and the host cell it helps us to understand some of the ways in which human cancers arise.

The Clinical Viral Hepatitis programme is led by Professor David Mutimer, Professor of Clinical Hepatology (University of Birmingham). The principle focus of the programme is the participation in pharma-sponsored trials of new antiviral drugs for chronic hepatitis C and hepatitis B infection. Professor Mutimer is a PI in the NIHR Liver Biomedical Research Unit, and is responsible for the delivery of clinical trials in that setting. The team includes clinical trials nurses, trial coordinators and trial administrators, and the team is based in the Birmingham University Cancer Research UK Early Drug Development Unit. Trial patients are seen in the outpatient department of the new QE Hospital and in the NIHR Wellcome Clinical Research Facility. Recent and ongoing studies in hepatitis C treatment are typically part of large multicentre collaborative trials, and include phase 2 and phase 3 studies of many of the promising direct-acting antiviral drugs and combinations. The QE Liver Unit is one of the largest Liver Units in Europe, and special populations of patients include those with HIV co-infection and liver transplant recipients. Enquiries from health care professionals and affected patients are welcome. email@example.com Find our more about Clinical Viral Hepatitis
Birmingham Public Health Laboratory, the reference virus laboratory for the West Midlands Region is located at Birmingham Heartlands Hospital. It is part of Public Health England Regional Microbiology Network. Three Medical Consultant Virologists, Dr. Husam Osman, Dr. Erasmus Smit and Dr. Sowsan F Atabani, oversee the delivery of services and provide specialist clinical virology support and advice for the West Midlands Region and beyond. The laboratory is well staffed with clinical and biomedical scientists providing a comprehensive virology diagnostic service. Testing of routine and research specimens is carried out, including screening of blood-borne viruses using dried blood spots. The laboratory is well equipped with serological and molecular techniques including next generation sequencing for monitoring of viral resistance in HIV and HCV. The Consultant Virologists also provide clinical virology services for University Hospital Birmingham and work closely with clinicians in infectious disease, haematology, renal, hepatology, paediatrics, neurology, GUM and HIV medicine, intensive care units and general medicine. Consequently we have access to a huge range of clinical material ranging from paediatric infections, solid organ and bone marrow transplantation and also viruses of public health importance. Current research interests and collaborations include: viral infections post-bone marrow and solid organ transplantation, development of HIV and hepatitis resistance in the era of direct acting anti-virals and cART, and the improved screening, referral and management of patients with chronic hepatitis C within the region.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an important human pathogen, being prevalent in all populations worldwide. Primary infection and subsequent persistence is usually clinically silent, although in some cases primary infection can cause infectious mononucleosis. Importantly, EBV is also a tumour virus and is linked to around 200,000 cases of cancer annually

Our research focuses on understanding the mechanism of hepatitis B and C virus (HBV and HCV) entry into the liver and how the virus persists to evade innate and adaptive immune responses. Development of multi-cellular systems comprising hepatocytes and non-parenchymal liver cells have enabled us to uncover new pathways that regulate viral replication. We are exploring the impact of viral and bacterial co-infection on HBV and HCV pathogenesis and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are associated with the development of cancers at a number of epithelial sites. These include the anogenital sites of the uterine cervix, vulva, vagina, penis and anus, and within the oropharyngeal tract; primarily the tonsil and base of tongue. The incidence of HPV-associated cancers show site-dependent variability; it is decreasing at the cervix, moderately increasing at the penis, vagina and vulva, and showing significant increases at the anus and oropharynx.

Triggas will pin everyone ranked under him? While he is a pinner, he's hardly known for his consistency.
My six are Stieber, Stiener, Tessari, Demas, Phillips and Camp. Camp was a match away last year so it isn't a long shot. I can see your hesitation in Phillips and Demas but you're also conviently forgetting that Demas beat St. John last year. (Waiting for your injury excuse as I type). Phillips was a national stud in high school. Probably more so than Tessari and Tessari took 4th, although no one outside of Buckeye Nation gives him credit for it. It was suggested that I was crazy for thinking the 4th place 149er could give the 2nd place 133er a match. Even with the help of his best friend knowing exactly how to beat him. But hey, Hunter Stieber could never beat Kellen Russell either.
Stieber, stieber, heflin, tessari, camp all have a good shot. Triggas, phillips, demas will be in the mix but not necessarily favored to. If courts is healthy hes a killer,
LOL at injury excuse. It was his first match in over a month. Than, he got whipped by RJ Pena. Than, you know, he won the Big 10 and took 2nd at NCAA's. Obviously Demas' victory was over him at full strength. Hey, how'd Mr. Demas do at Big 10's? NCAA's? Don't worry, I checked, he was 6th at Big 10's and 1-2 at NCAA's. He won 3 matches total at the two tournaments, and none on the championship side.
Those are solid stats. What did you say their head to head score was? And rest assured, if Garcia wins the wrestle off, thats okay. He's the one who beat Evans while I was matside.

Alex Ferguson Radio Plays | |||
Alex Ferguson was born in Jarrow and lives on Tyneside. He is an experienced writer who has worked in radio, television and film. For radio he wrote some plays in the late fifties and early sixties, none of which seem to have survived as recordings; he resumed radio work about thirty years later. His R4 series 'My Uncle Freddie" ran for six seasons won the Writers' Guild of Great Britain's Award for Comedy & Light entertainment in 1997. Information about some of the individual plays is shown below. Alex is the founding writer of Corin & Vanessa Redgrave's Moving Theatre with productions of his plays 'The Flag' and 'Casement' at Battersea Lane and the Riverside. Television work includes the short film 'Lads!' He founded the Bold As Brass Theatre Company in 1997 and was Creative Director until 2008, when he became Life President. His collections of short stories, 'My Uncle Freddie' (2004) and 'Uncle Freddie and the Prince of Wales' (2010) are in print, published by Iron Press. He has also written juvenile fiction.
BBC BROADCASTS A woman's walk is never done*....2000
I see the moon*....1999
The old man & the angel*....1998
A date in September*....1992
Alex also lists some plays he wrote much earlier, in the late fifties and early sixties, broadcast by the BBC: THE SONG OF CRAZY HORSE ....1960
THE SECRET VALLEY....c1960
....this book is simply a nugget of gold, a diamond, a thing of rare beauty. True, it is comical; but I think that what totally won me over was its celebration of humanity: It's funny, but it is so much more. Everyone should have a uncle Freddy-and the other wonderful characters you will find here. (summary of a review by KJB, Amazon website, Jan 2013)
The writing is an amalgam of the terrible poverty of wartime Tyneside and the surreally imaginative – meeting such famous characters as the Prince of Wales or Joe Stalin upstairs on a no.38 bus en route to Hebburn. Iron Press published Ferguson's story collection The Pineapple King of Jarrow in 2004, which rapidly sold out. That work was dramatised by BBC producer Melanie Harris, who is planning to dramatise the new collection, this time for the stage with her own indie production company CrossLab Productions.

Verantwoordelijkheid: | Jeffrey Meyers. |
Scott Fitzgerald, a romantic and tragic figure who embodied the decades between the two world wars, was a writer who took his material almost entirely from his life: "My characters are all Scott Fitzgerald. Even the female characters are Scott Fitzgerald." In this much-needed new biography, Jeffrey Meyers offers a perceptive interpretation of both the life and the work of one of America's finest novelists. Despite his early success with The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald's life became a battle against failure and disappointment. Struggling for artistic integrity, he compromised his talent to support his extravagant way of life. His friend and lifelong hero, Ernest Hemingway, was a harsh critic of both his behavior and his novels, but Fitzgerald accepted this with remarkable humility. Meyers portrays the volatile connection between theses two writers with insight and poignancy, as he does Fitzgerald's marriage to the schizophrenic Zelda. Insecure emotionally as well as artistically, Fitzgerald was paradoxically both blighted and enhanced as man and writer through this tortured union: out of it blossomed his classic novel Tender is the Night. This book, by the acclaimed biographer of Hemingway, is the first to analyze frankly the meaning as well as the events of Fitzgerald's life and to illuminte the recurrent patterns that reveal his inner self. Meyers emphasizes Fitzgerald's alcoholism, Zelda's illnesses and her doctors, Fitzgerald's love affairs both before and after her breakdown, and his wide-ranging friendships, from the polo star Tommy Hitchcock to the Hollywood executive Irving Thalberg. His writer friends included Ring Lardner, John Dos Passos, James Joyce, Edith Wharton and Dorothy Parker. Meyers also discusses Fitzgerald's fascinating relationship with his daughter, Scottie. Exercising a fine critical balance, he details Fitzgerald's weaknesses but ultimately reveals a man capable of fierce loyalty and great moral courage.

Every few months, Pitchfork publishes a review so objectionable that former readers email me to ask me to review it even though this blog has been basically inactive for years. It happened on Friday with the RiFF RaFF review. But I didn't know exactly what to say about it, other than that it hasn't been thoroughly copyedited ("[O]ne of Diplo's weaknesses is songwriting, so the his production…"), so I drafted a special guest Pitchfork review reviewer (above), who points to the fact, more than any particular thing wrong with the review, that the artists actually read these, and sometimes they hurt. Some reviews, at Pitchfork and elsewhere, are extraordinary distillations of movements, people, and small moments that give listeners paths to love and understand music in ways we never could have without the hours and years of thoughtful listening that the reviewers put in before we got there. Others deserve to be forgotten, and not because they hurt the artist, but because they're careless, bloviating, and undergraduate (much like a lot of my own writing). In the winter, indoors, there's plenty for time for reviews, but now, it's summertime, so maybe instead of reading the Neon Icon review, you should go here, buy Neon Icon ($8.99), and blast it in the car with your friends.

Get dirty, have fun and grow more food with great gardening tips from real-life gardeners.
By Melodie Metje
Tags: beginning gardening, raised beds, container gardening, Ohio, Melodie Metje
Making a new garden bed can seem like a monumental, labor intensive task, but it doesn't have to be. There are several minimal labor ways to make a new bed. My favorite begins with a hose and old newspaper and/or cardboard.
The best place to put a vegetable garden is close to the house where there is good sun, ideally a spot that gets southern exposure. Check out where the sun falls throughout a sunny day to see where the best locations are in your yard. Don't be concerned if your garden spot gets some shade each day. Fruiting vegetables need the most sun, 6-8 hours.
Root vegetables require less and leafy vegetables require the least. Leafy vegetables appreciate getting afternoon shade in the hot days of summer. I have a spot on the northeast side of the house that I like to put leafy greens. It gets the morning sun, but the cool afternoon shade. This allows us to grow lettuce through the summer.
Once you have picked out a spot, you can use a hose to lay out what you want the bed to look like. We then use a spray can of landscaping paint to paint out the edges of the bed.
The easiest next step is to cut the grass inside your new bed as short as possible. Then lay several layers of newspaper or cardboard over the top of the closely sheared grass and cover with compost then mulch. Now, just let the bed lay until the grass dies. The grass and its roots adds organic matter to the soil as well. Test the soil before planting to see what nutrients you need to add. Use a balanced fertilizer when you plant.
Another option is after mowing close to the ground and laying the newspaper/cardboard, dump garden soil over it all, add compost, fertilize and plant immediately. Just be careful to not cut through the newspaper or you will get grass growing in your new garden bed.
We have also used a sod cutter, cutting up the sod in our new bed. Then, turning it upside down, covering with newspaper/cardboard, a couple of inches of compost, mulch, and plant. This is definitely more work, but you have less chance of having to pull stray grass if you want to plant immediately.
If you don't need your garden bed to be "pretty", a quick way to plant is to simply poke holes in bags of garden soil, put the perforated side down, cut open the top side of the bag and plant away. The plastic underneath will keep the grass from growing through. The downside is that your veggie plant roots won't be able to grow down as well either. But if you don't have time, this is a good way to get started. You can edge around the bags and removed them the following year, adding compost and have a ready made bed for the following year.
You can also go the raised bed route. There are many do it yourself, pre-cut raised bed kits that you can purchase. Use the same techniques above to make sure the grass won't grow up through into your veggies. Newspaper and cardboard works great for this. Fill with good soil, compost, an all natural fertilizer and you are ready to plant.
The pros of raised beds is that they warm up quicker in the spring and you control the soil that you are growing in. The cons, the temperature is not as constant as if in the ground and they will need to be watered more often.
You can also opt to have your garden in pots. This is a great way to start small and quickly. It is amazing how many varieties of any veggie you love have been developed to grow in containers.
There are several options to getting your garden bed in place that don't require a ton of time or hard labor. Now is the time to choose one and get your spring garden growing!

L5R- Game Master's Screen and Adventure

Verified Purchaser
Date Added: 04/02/2012 13:47:15
I purchased the Dead tree version from ebay, I was more than a little disappointed by the quality compared to the 4th rules books which I rate highly.
The Adventure is ok, a little short but ok.
The screen on the other hand is very thin card, the Art work is ok and the table/info is useful, but when compared to the Screens for Dark heresy it is forced to hold its head in shame.
And the moral of this story is stick with the PDF.

City of Lies Box Set

Probably one of the best fantasy city supplements ever developed, City of Lies gives a GM all the tools necessary to run ongoing, long-term campaigns in Legend of the Five Rings. The player's guide to Ryoko Owari is one of the best handouts I've ever seen for city plot development and NPC character information - it tells your players who these guys are, what each part of the city is about, and the major plotlines and unusual practices of the city. It hints at the plots that could be run without giving anything away. I owned the print version of this supplement but I bought the PDF version solely so I could print out several copies of this document for my players as a handout.
The rest of the supplement is equally high-quality. There are handouts that are of use to the players, plots, pre-written adventures, adventure hooks, random rumor generators, ideas about how to create random encounters using the personalities and places in the game, a big map, and so very much more, all written with the high-quality that one can expect from an AEG - Rokugan based product.
I love this supplement, and I was thrilled to find it available online. I highly recommend it.

Legend of the Five Rings 4th Edition

Date Added: 03/07/2012 14:32:43
Legend of the Five Rings (L5R) [Fourth Edition] takes place in a setting heavily influenced by feudal Japan, liberally sprinkled with elements of other Asian cultures. It contains a variety of fantastic elements, including spell-casting, otherworldly creatures, several planes of existence, and, my favorite, kung fu monks with magical tattoos that let them breath fire. Players assume the role of members of the samurai class and take part in a variety of adventures, from ranging out beyond the Kaiu Wall in search of Oni to slay to maneuvering through royal courts full of honey lips hiding dagger tongues.
It continues to use the Roll and Keep system for action resolution. Whenever a roll is called for, a trait and a skill are selected and their values added together. That many d10s are rolled. The player then selects a number of them equal to the trait, discarding the rest. The faces of the selected dice are added together, giving you the total for your roll. It's flexible because traits do not have specific skills associated with them; they can be mixed and matched as the situation calls. For example, you might roll Intelligence and Athletics to determine the best way to ascend the cliff and then Strength and Athletics to do the actual climbing.
I highly recommend Legend of the Five Rings, and not only for the fire-breathing monks, to anyone interested in exploring a less European and less Hack-n-Slash style of gameplay or storytelling. The setting is rich and stimulating while preserving room for player and game master invention, the mechanics are simple and cover a wide range of situations, and you get to kill things with a katana.
Publication Quality: 9 out of 10
The L5R 4th edition core book marks the beginning of a new direction in cover presentation for Legend of the Five Rings. It is grey with minimal detail, in contrast to the third edition books, which were red and usually included a picture, apart from the core book. The art used within the book itself has shifted tones; it is still card art, but when combined with the whitish background it gives the book a much more ethereal feel than the previous edition. I found the fonts and spacing to be unremarkable, except those of the table of contents and index, which I found hard to read. The layout has remained largely the same and will be familiar to anyone who has looked at a previous L5R core book.
It is divided into five chapters each titled after one of the five rings from The Book of Five Rings, each corresponding to a different aspect of the game, setting, general mechanics, characters, advanced mechanics, and game mastering. One thing of particular note is the improvement in editing, especially over the L5R third edition revised book. My one major critique would have to be the character sheet. One of the objectives of fourth edition was to be able to play your character entirely from the character sheet, without consulting the rules. True, there is space to write everything mechanical down, and space for writing down information about NPCs, but the character sheet can run up to 6 pages. At that point I'd rather use a note pad for major stats and note cards for things like spells. Overall, I would say the book is well-made and laid out in a consistent fashion, allowing familiar players to easily transition to fourth edition and allowing new players to learn the game with minimal fuss.
Mechanics: 8 out of 10
The core mechanics, as well as most of the other general mechanics, remain largely, if not entirely, unchanged. One of the most obvious changes is the lack of large static bonuses and free raises, which will probably be lauded by people who remember the Ikoma Spymaster/Voice/Courtier/etc. builds. The only major downside I was able to find to the rules tweaks was that they require an especially fine read by veteran players to find the few important changes that have been made.
Balance has been improved significantly over the previous edition; Mirumoto Bushi, I'm looking at you. Much has been said about Maho and the Spider Clan schools regarding their balance, mostly that they are too powerful. That said though, they are in the Book of Air separated from regular player character mechanics. Additionally, the theme of the edition is "L5R Your Way," meaning each group should feel free to change things as they see fit as well as use or ignore whatever parts of the book they like. One potential mechanical pitfall that still remains is what to do with social skills. As in previous editions, there is a certain murkiness when it comes to deciding how to arbitrate social rolls. Overall, I would say again that the fourth edition of L5R is an improvement over the third edition; many balance issues have been fixed and a lot of excess bells and whistles have been trimmed out.
Desire to Play: 10 out of 10
L5R Fourth Edition gives people familiar with the brand more of the same gameplay they've had for years, but tighter. It gives new players the opportunity to experience a fantasy setting that is a departure from the traditional European medieval, and possibly Renaissance, world that is so common. The theme mechanics force players to make moral decisions that aren't strictly black and white, which is a staple of Samurai Drama, and have great effect on how players are treated by the world around them. Additionally, the alternate rules allow groups to model the style of their Rokugan on things from their favorite Kurasawa movie to their favorite Anime.
Overall: 9 out of 10
I initially got into Legend of the Five Rings because of the fire-breathing kung fu monks, but it's much more than running around and lighting things on fire, although there should definitely be some of that. A single campaign in Rokugan can cover so much ground; you might start out chasing bandits, discover they belong to a rival clan, argue in front of the emperor for the legitimacy of the war you want to start, learn that it's all a conspiracy led by someone high on the food chain being controlled by an evil demon, and end up confronting them deep in the Shadowlands as the fate of the empire hangs in the balance. Legend of the Five Rings provides you with the opportunity to adventure in a world where Honor is a force greater than Steel and the highest achievement is not to doing great things, but being remembered for the great things you have done.

Date Added: 02/28/2012 10:04:31
I already own the L5R new 4th edition, and I was interested in more 'live' aspects from the Shadowlands ... so though it was from an older edition, I decided to buy this book.
I must say that the book is really what I was looking for ! I am really impressed by the material within it. The book gives you first-person perspectives, with multiple short stories and anecdotes on the shadowlands and its corruptive power, and also number stories on the courage, honor, successes and failures of those fighting it ...
In summary, the book gives what is promised in the summary.
Note that this is a scanned book, but the quality of the scan is average to good and no part of the text/image is fuzzy.
So if you look for more on the Shadowlands, this is your book.
Please excuse my approximate english (a french native speaker)

Legend of the Five Rings: Imperial Histories

Imperial Histories is another must-buy for the L5R gaming group. The plot hooks are awesome, and all the eras presented are intriguing and present ample opportunity to elevate player characters into heroes.
Those who are looking for new mechanics will find them here, and fans who have been so patiently waiting for details on the Thousand Years of Darkness storyline will finally have the detail they were craving for.
I cannot recommend this book enough to fans of the game. Along with Emerald Empire and Enemies of the Empire, Imperial Histories is a solid addition to the line and manages to enrich the L5R line without coming off as just another attempt to make a quick buck.

Enemies of the Empire (4th Ed)
Sean H.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 02/17/2012 16:36:09
The Enemies of the Empire are surprisingly numerous and the reference to them is nearly indispensable for any Legends of the Five Rings campaign that is not focused purely on courtly machinations (and there are even useful resources for that as well). It provides a wealth of information and along useful new game mechanics and character options.
Enemies of the Empire, a sourcebook for the Legends of the Five Rings RPG (3rd edition) is a 290-page PDF (288 pages if you remove the covers), written by Shawn Carman, Robert Hobart,
Brian Yoon; Kevin Blake, Mikael Brodu, Patrick Duke, Dave Laderoute, Maxime Lemaire,
Jacob Ross, Ray Rupp, Rich Wulf, and Ryan Reese and published by AEG.
The layout is a straightforward design taken directly from the print version of the book, with a 2-column layout (and occasional one column commentary). As is expected from AEG, Enemies of the Empire is lavishly illustrated with full color art throughout. The table of contents is complete and there is an index as well, so finding what you are looking for should be easy the PDF book-marking is useful as well if not always intuitive.
After an opening piece of fiction, it moves onto a page of advice on gauging the threat, which is always a challenge especially in a system as deadly as Legends of the Five Rings can be. The actual enemies list begins with animals, expanding the choices considerably for natural creatures. Some of the animals can be useful for the characters and not just obstacles.
There are human enemies: the vile Bloodspeakers, detailing their history, organization and provides additional tricks and magic for them as well as some of the most notable (and powerful) bloodspeakers. The sinister Kolat conspiracy, its machinations, plans, example agents of all tiers and new advantages, disadvantages and schools. The Lost, humans who have fallen to the taint of the Shadowlands and often gained great power but at a terrible price, they have new schools, new Shadowlands powers and examples of some of the more well known of the Lost. And the Ronin, who are given a plethora of new paths and the bands who teach them as well as three ronin shugenja schools (something lacking in the core rules). All of which provide new options for player characters as well as providing a wealth of villains for the GM. The new ronin bands, paths, and shugenja schools are especially welcome and make the option of playing a ronin much more feasible within the system.
Rokugan is also home to a variety of non-human cultures: The Naga, snake-people who are joined in a shared spiritual link. The Nezumi, ratfolk who know the secret magic of names. Both of which could, in the right campaign, be used as player characters. Spirits and shapechangers from the other realms and the other ancient races of Rokugan: the Kenku, Kitsu, Ningyo, Trolls, Zokujin and the Tsuno -corrupted Kitsu- are further detailed as well (though not available for players).
True evil is not neglected: The ninja and other servants of the Nothing, which seeks to unravel reality are detailed. The mighty Oni, direct manifestations of evil -complete with tools for making your own oni- and other creatures of the Shadowlands (along with advice on using the Shaodwlands in adventures). Completing the options for evil there are the Undead which is combined with advice for running horror in the Rokugan setting.
The work concludes with an appendix featuring a set of random encounter tables.
Disclosure: As a featured reviewer for RPGNow/DriveThroughRPG, I received my copy of this product for free from the publisher for the purpose of this review. Also, I am friends with several of the authors, but I hope that has not shaded my opinion of the product.

The Gauntlet

Date Added: 01/20/2012 14:22:26
My players enjoyed this module, which was played the session immediately following the Honor Among Thieves Module. The party was made up of four level 6 players and one level 5 player; a mercenary group with good & neutral tendencies. They were trying to infiltrate the thieves guild and one of the fighters had dreams about it. They were also highly sympathetic to Sebastian, since they just helped him out.
Cons: It says that it is a sequel of Honor Among Thieves, or can be played as a standalone. However, it does not reference any NPCs from Honor Among Thieves (I worked Swift, the Minutemen, and Sebastian back in, however I did not use Desburg for the city in the 1st module and didn't use Desburg in this one). Again, the Module is laid out like a "pamphlet," which is a nuisance to assemble. I also switched the cleric's and the noble's house, it seemed like the cleric would have a more modest house than the noble.
Pros: I liked the fact that the DM can choose the last task (worked really well in my case), but perhaps 12 hours is too long for the PCs to get all the tasks done; using the Diplomat and some bluff/diplomacy skills (and one magic pipe performance, which made people dazed at the statue), they were able to get all or most of the tasks done within 4 1/2 hours.
I really enjoyed the how the players got around some of the tasks, for instance, since they were supposed to leave a bloody dagger in the noble's house (ie Sebastian), they weren't told how to do it or where to get the bloody dagger, so they drew one and left an apology note.

Honor Among Thieves

Date Added: 12/30/2011 13:06:48
I ran this over 2 sessions for my current Black Company game. The only differences I made that it was set in Beryl, the group got arms and armor instead of the Desburg magic item and I switched the shapeshifter's type from Terror fiend to Forvalka (wereleopard). In the tunnel section I switched out the water based monsters to alligators, although my party managed to avoid all of the alligators.
spoiler (some):
My group went the fastest route to Sebastian's house, and made a stop at the TTESSFFTT__ trap; it stumped them for a good 10 minutes or so, but I gave them several hints (ie "There are 10 spaces, 9 are filled and the last space is blank"). My suggestion to other DMs is to let the group roleplay it out, instead of using a Decipher Script roll. One of my players loved this trap so much, she is going to use the trap and part of the module in her home game.
I did up the HP of the terror fiend/forvalka some. My group was 5th level while playing this module, and are heavy hitters, so they would destroy a 50 hp creature within 2 player's turns. (However, I used the Terror Fiend's AC instead of the Forvalka's AC, and it took them a while to be able to hit it, before they dazed it and brought the AC down).
My top complaint is the layout of the module, where you had to assemble into a packet before you were able to read it completely through. The map was also very hard to read in the shades of grey (to see where the ledges where in relation to the rest of the tunnel was hard for the party), so I'd suggest at least making the map in color. If the DM's map is not possible to make in color (I copied the map included in the module and gave it as a hand out to the party), maybe make a Player's Map that is in color, as the party kept saying "oh, we're going towards room 10 or avoiding room 8" etc comments.

L5R- Game Master's Screen and Adventure
Adrian S.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 12/07/2011 20:48:43
Firstly, the GM Screen is marvellous. The exterior artwork is just beautiful and really aids the GM in setting the mood and flavour of the game. There is plenty of inspiration just from these images. The data on the screen is highly relevant and usable, especially having the Honour table at a glance. Overall, it is a well-designed product that any GM would find useful.
On to the adventure, then. 'Descent into Darkness' weighs in at 20 pages, with 13 of those devoted to the module and the others for NPCs and the map. It supports its claims to be a 'plug-and-play', region non-specific module very well and the designers have done a good job of leaving enough blank areas for the GM to fill and customise it for their own campaign. IT is even open-ended enough that it could be used as the introduction to a much longer campaign arc.
After reading through the whole module, all I can say is 'wow'. This is an especially dark piece of work (for L5R) which is justifiable given the nature of the conundrum placed at the feet of the PCs. There is a huge emphasis on thinking before acting, socialising and investigation to uncover the true activity behind the module. When the PCs do figure it out, they are left with a horrifying choice. This should lead to a lot of really good roleplaying scenes and characters doing some soul-searching before they can reach a sense of closure.
The module is well laid-out, and there are scaling tips in some encounters to give some advice on not only making the encounters more challenging, but also dealing with evoking the adventure (the one entitled 'Not dark enough?' has some great tips).
I think that this could well be more than a night's play to complete, depending on how much characterisation and investigation the players want to undertake. In preparation, I would warn any GM to have a contingency plan (and this is dealt with in the module too) as there are some open scenes which can potentially change the entire gameplay. Whilst this is distinct possibility, it only detracts in a small way from the product.
I'm really looking forward to putting my group of players through this. As they are interested in L5R, but have a strong background in White Wolf games, this will be a perfect hook to get them into a campaign.

This may be the best edition of the L5R rules ever written. They are clear, well-laid out, and, as always, written in a way that both entertains and educates. I have been playing L5R since 1st edition, now some 15 years ago, I suppose. This is the definitive edition thus far. If you have ever played, or ever wanted to play in this rich, engaging Wuxia-style setting, then I strongly recommend that you buy this version and get started. If you've been away from the L5R scene for a while, get this and get back into the game. It is top quality, and I cannot recommend it enough. Happy Gaming!

The main book of my favorite RPG. Certainly the organization is a bit wonky but the world is full of adventure and just reading this book will get you curious about how it all turns out. It's as though they took the best tidbits of history and mashed them all together at once. The French Revolution and the Three Musketeers (it's coming), King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table (oh they're there all right), Machiavelli and the Merchant Princes of Italy (oh heck yea), Vikings, the 30 Years War? It's all in there with pirates and a system that is not only forgiving if you try the impossible, but that also encourages it.
I only wish AEG had the foresight to continue this product or at least licence it out to folks who would do more with it.

The Great Clans is a book without an ounce of fat. Every bit of fluff serves to further insight to the clan, and the accompanying mechanics gives ways for players to further customize their characters without resorting to having to pick up stuff from other Clans just to be unique. The writing is clear, informative and displays the love and dedication of the authors to a setting that they are eager to share to the reader. As with all of L5R's 4th Edition books, The Great Clans is also a work of art, featuring beautiful artwork, clear layouts and font choices that aren't a pain to read. GMs and Players alike will find a ton of things that can enrich their campaigns, and Alderac continues their winning streak with the 4th Edition of Legend of the Five Rings as the best edition in the history of the L5R RPG.

I don't think I'm exaggerating at all when I say that Emerald Empire should be considered seminal reading for anyone who is looking to play in this setting. The writing is excellent, with each chapter focusing on one aspect of life in Rokugan, providing the kind of minutiae that lends depth and color to a game. It's the attention to small details that really shows off just how much the writing team loves the setting, and wants to communicate that enthusiasm and enjoyment to the reader.

Lyle H.
Verified Purchaser
Date Added: 08/29/2011 17:03:43
This is a very useful supplement for anyone running a Shadowlands or other combat-heavy scenario or campaign, as it provides numerous additional villains, opponents, and monsters (especially monsters). It will be less useful for more political (court based) campaigns, although there are a number of opponents that are designed to be used as infiltrators.
Like all of the AEG 4th Ed. L5R products published to date, this text has good production values and (color) illustrations, and is well-laid out and attractive to read.
Due to L5R using a non-standard system, the statistics and game mechanics given in this book will be difficult to translate for use in other settings, limiting its value for other game systems except as inspiration.

Arthur Guyton
Arthur C. Guyton | |
Family photo, c. 1980
Born | September 8, 1919 |
Died | April 3, 2003 | (aged 83)
Nationality | American |
Fields | Physiology |
Institutions | University of Mississippi |
Arthur Clifton Guyton (September 8, 1919 – April 3, 2003) was an American physiologist who later became Dean of the University of Mississippi Medical School.
Nowadays Guyton is perhaps best known for his book Textbook of Medical Physiology, which quickly became the standard text about the subject in medical schools. The first edition was published in 1956, the 10th edition appeared in 2000, the last before Guyton's death, and the 12th appeared in 2010. It is the world's best-selling physiology book and has been translated into at least 15 languages.[1][2]
Textbook of medical physiology[edit]
Textbook of Medical Physiology is the world's best-selling physiology text and has been translated into at least 13 languages (the textbook memoriam states 13,[2] but the online memoriam states at least 15.[1])
From the ninth edition onwards, John E. Hall co-authored the textbook. However, all prior editions were written entirely by Guyton, with the eighth edition published in 1991.[3] Subsequent editions, including the latest, preserve his legacy within the title, Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology.[4]
Physiology of cardiac output[edit]
Guyton is most famous for his experiments in the 1950s which studied the physiology of cardiac output and its relationship with the peripheral circulation (see e.g. chapter 23 of Guyton 1976,[5] or chapter 20 of both Guyton, 1991[3] and Guyton & Hall.[2][4]
It was this work which overturned the conventional wisdom that it was the heart itself that controlled cardiac output. Guyton instead demonstrated that it was the need of the body tissues for oxygen which was the real regulator of cardiac output. The "Guyton Curves" which describe the relationship between right atrial pressures and cardiac output form the basis of understanding the physiology of circulation. This subject is well described in Guyton's textbook (e.g. Guyton 1976;[5] Guyton 1991;[3] Guyton & Hall 2006[2]) which contains references to the original publications.
Arthur Guyton was born in Oxford, Mississippi, to Dr. Billy S. Guyton, a highly respected eye, ear, nose, and throat specialist, and Kate Smallwood Guyton, a mathematics and physics teacher who had been a missionary in China before marriage.[1][2]
Guyton initially intended to be a cardiovascular surgeon but was partially paralysed after being infected with polio. He suffered from this infection in 1946 during his final year of residency training. Suffering paralysis in his right leg, left arm, and both shoulders, he spent nine months in Warm Springs, Georgia, recuperating and applying his inventive mind to building the first motorized wheelchair controlled by a "joy stick", a motorized hoist for lifting patients, special leg braces, and other devices to aid the handicapped. For those inventions, he received a Presidential Citation.[2][1]
Despite his disability, he was father to ten children who all went on to become celebrated physicians, including a professor of ophthalmology, a professor of surgery, a professor of medicine, a cardiothoracic surgeon, a rheumatologist, two anaesthesiologists and two orthopaedic surgeons. Eight of his children attended Harvard Medical School.[2][1]
Due to his disability, he had to abandon his plan to become a surgeon. Instead he concentrated on physiology research and teaching, and became the head of the University of Mississippi Dept. of Physiology and Biophysics. He retired as department chair in 1989 but continued as emeritus professor up until his death on April 3, 2003, in a car accident.
Guyton's obituary states "unlike most major textbooks, which often have as many as 10-20 authors", the first eight editions "were written entirely by Guyton with a new edition always arriving on schedule for nearly 40 years. This feat is unprecedented for any physiology or medical text. His textbook is unique in the history of medical publishing".[1][6]
His obituary notes that he triumphed over polio:
He had a special ability to inspire people through his indomitable spirit", and "his courage in the face of adversity humbled us. He would not succumb to the crippling effects of polio. It is very unlikely that a repairman ever crossed his doorstep, except perhaps for a social visit. He and his children not only built their home, but also repaired each and every malfunctioning appliance and home device no matter the difficulty or the physical challenge. He built a hoist to lower himself into the "hole" beneath their house to repair the furnace and septic lines when calling a repairman seemed to be the only option to those who did not know him well. On trips to meetings, he walked long distances across airport terminals when using a wheelchair would have been much easier. His struggle to rise from his chair and walk to the podium for a lecture was moving, but the audience was always more impressed when he forcefully articulated his brilliant concepts.[1]
His obituary in The Physiologist journal, and Memoriam in the 11th edition of his book, are largely verbatim of each other, including as below:
Arthur Guyton's research contributions, which include more than 600 papers and 40 books, are legendary and place him among the greatest figures in the history of cardiovascular physiology. His research covered virtually all areas of cardiovascular regulation and led to many seminal concepts that are now an integral part of the understanding of cardiovascular disorders such as hypertension, heart failure, and edema. It is difficult to discuss cardiovascular regulation without including his concepts of cardiac output and venous return, negative interstitial fluid pressure and regulation of tissue fluid volume and edema, regulation of tissue blood flow and whole body blood flow auto-regulation, renal-pressure natriuresis, and long-term blood pressure regulation.[1][7]
The Textbook Memoriam continues: "Indeed, his concepts of cardiovascular regulation are found in virtually every major textbook of physiology. They have become so familiar that their origin is sometimes forgotten".[7]

- Reference to Guyton's biographical details in the above text comes primarily from the obituary published in Physiologist magazine, and John E. Hall's memoriam and preface to the 11th edition of Textbook of Medical Physiology both of which contain overlapping statements, sometimes verbatim, sometimes almost verbatim.
