'Now your acting had better be good,' the man whispered, and immediately set off down a long corridor, squeezing Jack's arm hard enough to leave bruises.Īnd then the thing he had been afraid might happen since the moment he had observed that there were men on the tower now did happen: one of them fell.Ī twerp of eighty-four was a slightly awesome and wholly frightening idea.

That damned priest has his spies everywhere-why would he not have one in his own tower, where he keeps secrets that he will not show even to his master, the king? Whatever tools Pryrates chooses for his work, it is all the same to me. It is all the same to me, Elias murmured. After all, common sense, he's got to come five hundred miles across difficult country, anything could happen. Else he wouldn't be coming here, would he? All those others must be his trusty band of good companions. 'If there are problems they are supplied. It's all for the officials,' added the co-pilot dourly.

Again Gonzalez concentrated not on the ball but on the man, aiming his sharp toe at the man's groin.

Ray also draws attention to a lesser-known Athenian general, Iphicrates. Ray recounts all of this, with Philip, his son Alexander III (the Great), and the Theban strategists Pelopidas and Epaminondas who inspired them each getting their due. This was a fascinating and critical period, and Philip II’s time as a hostage in Thebes during the glory years of that polis has rightly so often been remarked on. Yet, by mid-century, the fulcrum had shifted first to the up-and-coming Thebans and then to the even more up-and-coming Macedonians. Sparta had emerged victorious in the Peloponnesian War, and the Greek world looked to be in for a long-term Lacedaemonic hegemony. When the fourth century began, Sparta was the dominant land power in Greece, as it had been in the previous century. Indeed, this may be the strongest asset of Ray’s volume. provides an analysis of engagements and military developments, it is also examines what led to those developments. While Greek and Macedonian Land Battles of the 4th Century B.C. Ray’s knowledge of geology and topography are evident in both books. Greece: A History and Analysis of 173 Engagements (2008), Ray covered the century preceding the current volume’s subject. This is not the first time that Ray has explored the subject of warfare in the classical Greek world. Such a pivotal period deserves a thorough analysis, and Fred Eugene Ray Jr., a retired geologist and oil industry executive, has gamely accepted the challenge. These formations were initially used by rival city-states, then crafters of empires. From the period of Spartan dominance in the wake of the Peloponnesian War to the initial wars waged by Alexander the Great’s successors, the fourth century saw multiple variations of the Doric phalanx on battlefields, in the Greek heartland, in the Mediterranean, and on its border with India. The fourth century BC was a seminal period in military history, especially with regard to the Western way of war. Jefferson: McFarland & Company, Incorporated Publishers, 2012. Greek and Macedonian Land Battles of the 4th Century B.C.: A History and Analysis of 187 Engagements. I really liked the café racer sort of bikes, so I started building Japanese bikes and British bikes. I didn't have a garage, so I started building bikes in my basement. My dad was a car guy and he built hot rods, and when I was a kid there were always cars, from ‘32 Fords up to ‘57 Chevys, you know? I didn't have that kind of money. To me, it was very cool, you know? Like, everybody had the choppers and motorcycles and my generation was the first one that was artists, and not just bikers or sailors. Some vintage Tattoo shop business cards from Bob Paulin’s collection - Photos © Bob Paulin You know me, I really liked the 90s because that was my history and I really liked that era from 89 to 99. He had shrunken heads, he had a museum, he collected very old stuff. He had a massive collection of all sorts. He would take twenty people up and make gatherings and all. So Dave, that wild character, he knew everyone, he went everywhere. I think there were five Way Cool Tattoos in the early 90s, from Niagara Falls to Toronto. Then a WAY COOL Tattoo shop opened and at that time the whole industry changed. There was a Big Dave, a Little Dave, there was Dave “Ace” Daniels. In the late 80s, early 90s, there were so many Daves around here. Why aren't you doing this?” He actually sort of talked me into it, you know? That's when I met Dave Price and he said, “I'm tattooing all your drawings of your work, you should be tattooing. New wood carving art from Bob Paulin - Photo ©Bob Paulin My customers kept seeing my art because I've always been an artist, and they kept asking me to draw tattoos designed for them. I actually was a cabinet maker and I was building café racer motorcycles, you know, the two-stroke motorcycles. PC: What was young Bob like? When you started in ‘92, were you an early bloomer in tattooing?īP: No, I wasn't. It was easier to approach these guys at the convention and talk to them.Ī circa 1986 Tattoo Magazine - The “Pre-Internet” way for artists to become known. I started getting my work in the magazines for them. That was the medium before the internet, you know? If you wanted to be known, you had to be in the magazine, so I tried to get into as many magazines as possible and in the process started getting my stuff, my work, right next to some other famous tattoo artists like Marshall Bennett, and a lot of black and grey artists that I really enjoyed. So in order to get magazine coverage, you had to be at the convention so that photographers could see you and see your clients, right? So that worked pretty well. Poster from the 1993 Montreal International Tattoo ExpoĪt that time, the magazines were the thing, no internet back then. Back then you guys tried to make your presence known. I even started popping up at the conventions and always went to the Eikon booth to buy stuff. Then the Canadian ones the first Toronto Tattoo Convention, Montreal. I got to meet a lot of great tattoo artists like Big Joe Kaplan, Spider Webb, Jack Rudy, working around with these guys and watching them work. I did the first organized tattoo conventions like the ‘’MJM’’, the American Jamboree Tattoo Convention in Schenectady, New York, in the early 90s, like 92. I used to do the conventions, like a lot, almost everything. You've been on my social feed for so long, but we’ve never really met right? It feels like I know you I saw you at a few conventions for sure, but we’ve never really officially met, no. Although you’ve been tattooing for 30 years, you’re not the most known tattoo artist. Like many, you had to stop tattooing for a few months but now you’re back at it. I have to admit, I need to find a way to get people more interested in the old stories! This is our last interview of the season and I wanted to finish with something special, you know, you may perhaps be less glamorous than others, but you’ve lived quite a life of tattooing! I know you're an avid collector and I read EVERYTHING you post on so I’ve had you in mind for P2P for a long time. Photo © Stacy Fox Thanks very much for taking the time to chat with me Bob. This journey was organized to spread Christianity to China’s ruling class as well as establish trade relations with China’s new Yuan dynasty. Marco Polo was born in 1254 in Italy and traveled with his father east, far beyond what most Europeans could ever do. Polo was heavily involved in the family’s travels, spending 17 years in China with his family, beginning in Europe and continuing all the way to Asia. Marco Polo’s book The Travels of Marco Polo is regarded as one of the best travel books ever written, describing his journey across Asia and his interactions with local cultures. His full name was Il milione (“The Million”). Marco Polo, an Italian merchant and adventurer who traveled from Europe to Asia in 1271–95 and stayed in China for 17 of those years, was born on Januin Venice, Italy. He wasn’t the first European to visit China, but he was the first to write about it, which aided in the development of early European knowledge about the country. Marco Polo’s book, China and Central Asia, introduced Europeans to China and Central Asia. Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Mongol Empire, was also a close friend of his. Marco Polo had achieved his goal of introducing Europe to the wonders of China.Ĭhinese ivory, jewels, jade, porcelain, and silk were also among the items brought back by Marco Polo. People were fascinated by his tales of a land so different from their own. Marco Polo’s book was published in 1300 and was an instant success. He recorded his experiences in a book called The Travels of Marco Polo. In 1295, Marco Polo began the journey back to Venice. He also served as a diplomat, helping to establish trade routes between China and Europe. He traveled throughout the country, observing the people and the land. Marco Polo spent the next 24 years of his life in China, working for the Mongol ruler Kublai Khan. When Marco was young, his father and uncle, Maffeo Polo, took him on a business trip to China. His father, Niccolò Polo, was a wealthy merchant who traded with the Middle East. Marco Polo was born in 1254 in Venice, Italy. Explain your version of song meaning, find more of Dethklok lyrics.

Original lyrics of Crush The Industry song by Dethklok. The song Crush the Industry premiered on Full Metal Jackie on September. 'Dethalbum III' is able to take a super serious (and often gore-slathered) genre like death metal and make it 'deth metal.' That is, it fuses skilled playing with a sense of humor, which is often not the case in the genre's offerings. Dethalbum III is the third full-length album by virtual death metal band Dethklok. 'Killstardo Abominate' is a battering ram, as is 'Biological Warfare.' The riffwork on 'Skyhunter' is also exceptionally standout.

It's the extremity of the music that keeps us tuned in for 12 tracks.Īnother standout track is 'Impeach God,' which features an opening salvo so vivid, you can almost imagine fingers sailing up and down a fretboard. Crush The Industry Guitar Pro by Dethklok. 'Dethalbum III' is certainly not extra progressive nor is it dynamically dazzling or esoterically experimental, but we don't want it to be, either. Most of the songs hover at four to five minutes, which is just enough time to get in, scramble your brain and get out, moving on to the next slab o' metallic goodness. The galloping solo is as potent as moonshine. 'Andromeda' sounds like it could have been reared in Florida, after hang sessions with Cannibal Corpse, Six Feet Under and Obituary, as it hacks a deep groove, thanks to its riffery. 'Crush the Industry' is a death metal gem, loaded with fills, guttural growling and overall chilling atmosphere. Journeyman drummer Gene Hoglan's footwork is as complex, propulsive and powerful as ever, with the percussion and blast beats being a signature and anchoring element of Dethklok's sound. How can you not have a chuckle at a song titled 'I Ejaculate Fire' before launching into fast and furious headbanging, courtesy of guitarwork so swift that it likely burned the fingerprints right off Small's fingers? Small has rendered himself a more than capable riffsmith. Crush The Industry No Security, Cut into them, for one last sip of the life. It’s shortly after moving up to the power caller suite, where he must use his white voice at all times, in which Cassius learns that WorryFree, led by CEO Steve Lift (Hammer) is the company’s biggest client. Detroit is “morally emaciated” when it comes to selling slave labor. A gallery artist by trade, Detroit is also a part of Left Eye, a collective that also tends to be on the radical side in their protest against WorryFree. His decision to accept the promotion causes a stir with his colleagues and his girlfriend, Detroit (Thompson). As Cassius becomes a power caller, he soon earns a promotion around the same time that his fellow telemarketers, led by Squeeze (Yeun), decide to put their phones down and go on strike as they compare their contracts to slavery. He’s not having much success until Langston (Glover) convinces him to use his white voice, as in “Will Smith white”–voiced in the film by comedian David Cross. The way that the calls are displayed on camera is very hysterical with Green’s desk suddenly appearing opposite whoever he’s calling. Taking place in present-day Oakland in a different timeline, Cassius Green (Stanfield) lives in the garage of his uncle, Sergio (Crews), and struggles to pay the rent while as a telemarketer for a local firm. Unlike the former, this film is one that plays more to the comedy side rather than go for thrills. Much in the same veinas last year’s hit film, Get Out, Sorry To Bother You is a crazy satire with a lot of social commentary. The star-studded cast of Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson, Armie Hammer, Terry Crews, Steven Yeun, Omari Hardwick, Jermaine Fowler, and Danny Glover was one of the few films that showcased diversity with POC in leading roles. Boots Riley’s Sorry To Bother You, one of the most buzzed about films at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, is one of the best feature debuts during the fest. It will generally be found in a pile and each piece will be around the size of a small marble. White-tailed deer scat is probably the most common that you will find in New York. The scat from black bear and raccoon is usually dark in color and will be tubular in shape. Deer and rabbit scat is shaped like a ball or marble and can be found primarily in feeding areas. Felines don’t specify where their scat lands and the scat are tubular and sectioned. Scraping marks in the dirt from their paws can also be found in front of canine scat. Canines will generally place their scat higher off the ground such as on a rock in a trail this is a way they mark their territory so it can be found by other canines. The next thing to look at is the placement of the scat and its shape. Some New York species that fit this category are deer, rabbit, porcupine and woodchuck. If the scat only contains plant fibers then you can assume that the animal is an herbivore. Where things can get tricky is if the scat has berries or fur and berries, this comes from an omnivore like a fox, coyote, raccoon or black bear that eat both meat and vegetation. If the scat contains fur or bone then you can assume that the animal is a carnivore, like a fisher or bobcat. For example, are there berries, fur, bones, or plant fibers? Identifying what the scat is made up of will narrow down the type of species that the scat can belong to. When first looking at scat you want to see if there are any remnants or sign of what the animal has been eating. We will be focused on scat that you are most likely to run into while out exploring the beautiful New York State Parks. The winter snow provides a great backdrop for finding wildlife scat you can learn how to identify some of the common critters that reside in our State Parks by looking at their scat. If you have room in your stomach, you must try Hantei’s kushiage-skewered tidbits lightly battered, deep-fried, and delightfully crispy. As there are few such buildings remaining in Tokyo, it’s quite a heartwarming sight to behold. Though located on a street bustling with cars, time seems to have stopped here at this renovated Meiji era building. This is Hantei, a famous kushiage restaurant. A classical, wooden three-story building is sure to catch your eye on Shinobazu-dori Avenue. Starting from Kiyomizu Kannon-do Temple, walk by Benten-do Temple and Shinobazu Pond, and head in the direction of Nezu. Hantei occupies a wooden three-story building, a rare sight in Tokyo now. Now let’s follow Hiroshige’s footsteps by taking a stroll from Ueno Park to Yanaka, Nezu, and Sendagi, collectively known as the Yanesen area. The roofed earthen wall of Kannon-ji Temple in the Yanesen area. These included people going to worship at Yushima Tenman-gu Shrine while men enjoyed drinks at the rest house next to the shrine’s torii gate cherry blossoms in full bloom in Ueno Park and Dangozaka in Sendagi and Dokanyama, popular among the general public as a site to relax and listen to insects chirp. Along with his portrayal of famous scenic spots, Hiroshige, who was born in Edo (former name of Tokyo), was also fond of capturing scenes from the daily lives of people in the shitamachi, the old downtown area of Edo. Utagawa Hiroshige, the master of landscape portrayal, depicted sites throughout Japan in his ukiyo-e woodblock prints. “The electrodes are extremely flexible and well suited to be combined with optical imaging in exactly the same brain regions.” “As soon as we had the electrodes, I wanted to use them to understand brain functions and dysfunctions in a domain that was difficult to probe with previous technology,” she said. “That was my transition from being trained as a material physicist to neuroengineering. “This started with the device,” said Luan, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at Rice’s Brown School of Engineering, who developed a flexible neural electrode with co-author Chong Xie while both were at the University of Texas at Austin. The study required implants and instrumentation designed to monitor both blood flow and brain activity simultaneously before, during and after the onset of strokes. They observed that neuronal recovery could take weeks even for small strokes, and possibly longer for larger strokes. The study in rodent models revealed the restoration of blood flow in the brain occurs first, followed by the restoration of neuronal electrical activity. Illustration by the Luan Laboratory, Rice University The researchers created a custom implant that combines the ability to simultaneously monitor both blood flow and brain activity. Rice neurobiologists show that increased blood flow to the brain is not an accurate indicator of neuronal recovery after a microscopic stroke. In some cells, there will be a number ranging from 1-9.
