![]() I have nothing against asses, but that word just rubs me the wrong way. how will I blog from a beach in Mexico? I think the answer to that question is: Yes, I will have another margarita, thank you.Ħ1A: Bum (heinie) - gross. Next family trip: Cancun! In Nine Days! It just occurred to me. Reminds me of my family's trip to Hawaii two years ago. For all your ton info needs, go here.ģ8D: Fragrant necklace (lei) - Hawaii. Except for its use in the shipping industry, it has been replaced in Britain by the metric tonne - 1000 kg. The "long ton" was a British Imperial unit of measurement equal to 2240 lbs. That, apparently, is the "short ton" - the U.S. ![]() "The Pint?" Was it very tiny? Or was it like a floating pub?Ģ7A: Long or short measure (ton) - totally stumbled on this one. (pintas) - educated guess! So Columbus's ships were named "The Little Girl," "The Saint Mary," and. Try that next time.Ģ1A: Quart halves: Sp. It just seems mildly disrespectful that she gets more credit for the guys she slept with than for the many movies she starred in - like The Killers. Maybe if Elizabeth Taylor showed up in the puzzle more, Ava would have some competition. She gets clued in reference to multiple men more than any actress I know. I have to stand up for her, though, and say that I'm a bit tired of her being clued by reference to how many men she's been with / married. ![]() HOMES is an OK answer for the 9A clue, but as you all know, I am still waiting for the day when it receives its perfect clue. But AVANT on its own? No, not in my world. There's also the French phrase occasionally heard in English, avant la lettre. I have never heard AVANT used in English in any way except in the phrase avant-garde. Was unsure of the "A" in TAC because it could have been TIC (hell, it could have been TOE, I suppose), and I was getting Nothing for the Down cross 7D: Culturally advanced (avant). The first three across answers, right along the top edge of the puzzle. Eventually I figured out that ETO was wrong because ITEAL just made no sense for 52D: Old toy company that made Rubik's Cube (Ideal). ![]() Now maybe you're thinking "But Rex, the EDO period ended in 1867 - it's not WWII-related at all." Yes, but Japan is, so in my American brain. Lastly, as far as stumbles go, I confused one WWII-era answer with another, writing in ETO (European Theater of Operation) when what I wanted was of course EDO ( 60A: Old Tokyo). (Side Note: the recent clue (pee) sent hundreds of people Googling their way to my site, even after they had the answer right, just to figure out what the it meant). Eventually I rooted out the errant "K" and put back the "P" - giving me PEES for the clue. This gave me K- for the "nappies" clue, which didn't work either. I also wrote the correct YAP for 46A: Kisser, but when I couldn't get 48D: Pair of nappies? to work starting with a "P" I somehow misremembered the clue for YAP as something having to do with talking, and changed the "P" to a "K," giving me YAK. I had some dumb, dumb mistakes sitting in this grid for a while, including PARES SPARE PEARS - I think my mind came up with the anagram quickly and so I failed to re-consult the clue to see if it made any sense (answer: no). THEME: anagrammatic phrases - 5 theme answers are each made up of three 5-letter words that are anagrams of one another:ġ7A: Harvests more Anjous than needed? (reaps spare pears)Ģ3A: Judges the crying of comic Johnson? (rates Arte's tears)ģ9A: Imposing look from an angry king? (large regal glare)ĥ1A: Tiny parasites spring from a Los Angeles newspaper ( Times emits mites) - I like how the New York Times wants to make it clear that it's the LOS ANGELES Times that has the infestation.Ħ3A: Freshest stories?

The city is of a fairly decent size but there’s absolutely no letup from the masses with every turn, every road and every cul-de-sac primed with zombies ready to pounce. You see the action solely from a top down perspective and Zombie Drive Ultimate Edition will immediately throw you back to yesteryear and remind you of the original GTA games….just this time with streets full to the brim with the undead.Īnd when I say full to the brim, I’m not joking. If Slaughter Mode was about ice skating I could say that it's the perfect place for making beautiful loops in harmony with soul touching music, but fortunately it's not so you can exchange loops for insanely long combos and soul touching music for the sound of metal ploughing through hundreds of zombies.Set in a city besieged by zombies, you’ll find yourself taking to the streets in a variety of vehicles in an attempt to save civilians, complete objectives and wipe out the zombie threat. The Military Base Slaughter mode map is one of the larger levels and as the name implies it's a based in an abandoned army depot. It can ram through anything on it's path, has lot's of nitro and can carry up to 8 passengers in the Story Mode. The second one is a huge custom made truck with jet engine exhausts called the "Auroch". It's very fast and handles incredibly well in tight corners. The first of the two is called the "Chaos 126p" and it's a small and nimble monster truck (as far as monster trucks can be small, anyway). It is called the Apocalypse Pack and it includes two awesome cars available in all game modes, plus an extra Slaughter Mode map - the Military Base.īoth of the new cars are guest appearances from our earlier project - D.I.P.R.I.P., which was a multi player car combat game released in 2008 as a free Source Engine mod. As promised earlier we are releasing a fresh pack of content for Zombie Driver HD this week. ![]() We'll keep you informed on the situation as it develops. We aren't ready to announce the new new game yet, but we can already say that it's very different from Zombie Driver. It has been a big success for our studio and we thank you very much for buying the game and supporting us! Zombie Driver is still going strong and it allows us to work in peace on our next game. So far Zombie Driver has sold over half a million copies since December 2009, counting all releases and platforms including PC, XBLA, PSN, Google Play, OUYA and boxed versions in 58 countries around the world. ![]() ![]() Head on over there as we'll be posting them through the next few days until the game disappears from the marketplace and if you like the game, remember to tell your friends that it will be still available for purchase on the remaining platforms. That being said we still have a lot of XBLA keys left for Zombie Driver HD and we'll be giving them away on the EXOR Studios Facebook page. We're looking forward to see if we would be allowed to release Zombie Driver on the Xbox One with new improvements for the next generation :) Meanwhile we are already working on finding a new publishing partner for the Xbox 360 and hope to announce the game's re-release on XBLA as soon as possible. Thankfully Microsoft is moving forward with the Xbox One and we are already in the program. XBLA on the Xbox 360 is the last platform where it's not possible to release a game on our own and from the perspective of a small independent studio, it looks a bit like a remnant of the Cold War in comparison to the other platforms. The situation on XBLA is somewhat more difficult because due to Microsoft's policies we are not able to self-publish the game on the Xbox 360 even though it has passed all certification stages, requirements, etc. We are already working with Sony in Japan to re-release the game so it should return shortly. Zombie Driver HD will continue to be available without interruption on all platforms where EXOR Studios was independently self-publishing the game including: Steam, the PlayStation® Network (in all countries except Japan), Windows Store, OUYA and others. The game will function without any interruption for everyone who has bought it before that date. We're sad to inform that due to the liquidation process of our Japanese XBLA publisher - the Cyberfront Corporation, Zombie Driver HD will be temporarily taken down from sale on XBLA worldwide and PSN in Japan at the end of January. ![]() To review the specific opportunities available, please see the open roles below and review the job description and requirements.

![]() This is highly advisable when you are into online gaming rather than using a wireless connection. To resolve this, you should strongly consider using a wired internet connection if you’re not already. So, you can fix your jitter by lowering your latency and more. How can you fix jitter? The main cause of jitter is the difference in the average latency time of your packets. A simple thing like jitter can cause you to lose a game, making your gaming skill completely irrelevant. These sudden spikes in ping may throw off your game, causing you to miss that game-winning moment in games like Magic: The Gathering Arena. But with jitter, that 45ms might spike to 90ms or even 300ms for a short time, before going back down to your average ping. For example, your average ping might be 45ms. Jitter is the sudden deviation that you get in your ping whenever you are playing online games. WTFast will make sure that your game data reaches the server in the most effective manner possible.

Wired connections are also more preferable than wireless connections because they are faster and more stable. Consider shutting down all programs and devices that are consuming your bandwidth, because you need to dedicate all of that to your online gaming. Remember - multitasking is bad! If you were a professional football player, would you try to stream Netflix while you played? Probably not. Try to experiment with different graphics options, like reducing screen resolution, render quality, lower texture resolution, etc. You can decrease the resolution and graphics rendering by tweaking the game settings in the options menu. You may also opt to downgrade the system requirements by reducing the resolution and graphics quality in-game. If your computer does not meet the requirements listed on the game's system requirements, you should upgrade your computer to the specifications mentioned therein.

Smith’s narration has a reflexivity to it that radically alters the reader’s sense of time. With this volume of historical fiction, Minkoff truly does seem to inhabit the language of those times. Presented as a memoir of Captain John Smith, founder of Jamestown Colony, Virginia in 1607, The Weight of Smoke (McPherson & Co, 389 pages) is the work of a self-described antiquarian, rare books dealer whose imagination is stacked to the ceiling with historic archives and Elizabethan letters. Posted in just literary fiction, science fiction | Tagged disturbing literary fiction, gritty literary fiction, lyrical writing style | Leave a comment The Weight of Smoke by George Robert Minkoff Lyric mastery and a tone of brooding psychic disturbance are the bedrock of the novel, a startling penetration of beauty couched within doom. None of the characters has a name or is “likable” or “relatable,” as the current jargon has it but do not read Kavan for those ends. The plot is episodic, evading conventional patterns. Ice shifts between bleak realism and a haunted panorama of psychological terrors. Kavan’s prose swerves breathtakingly from the delicate and the brutal. The anti-hero narrator, a man obsessed with a frail, stunning young woman, chronicles the doom he foresees for his world and the girl who is the object of his fascination. Kavan creates a world overrun by vast ice sheets caused by nuclear winter. Published in 1967, Ice (Peter Owen, 158 pages) is a harrowing, oblique, beautiful novel increasingly viewed as a modern classic on par with 1984 and Brave New World. |
