A large Rococo console table

Estimate: PHP 50,000 - 60,000

Last quarter, 19th century

San Isidro, Nueva Ecija

Red narra

86 x 147.5 x 57 cm (34 x 58 x 22 in)

 

Lot 440 of the Salcedo Auctions auction on 21 September 2019. Please see salcedoauctions.com for more details.

 

A beautifully crafted, unusually large console table made in precious, heavy red narra wood in rich, lustrous patina, with strong stylistic affinities with Rococo Revival furniture popular in Europe in the second and third quarter of the 19th century. The serpentine front concaves at the sides, bulges in the middle, and rounds at the corners. Flowers, foliage, C-scrolls and elongated shell motifs delightfully carved adorn the frieze drawers and cabriole legs. The French-style shell hoof feet are strikingly beautiful and well executed. Interestingly, by design, there are no X-stretchers connecting the legs, thus presenting an uncluttered demeanor. Only an wealthy family with a stately house to keep it in could possibly own such a magnificent piece. Reputedly from a house in San Isidro, Nueva Ecija owned by relatives of nationalist Maximo Viola.

201 años dempués de la declaración de soberanía de 1808 Fai! quixo recordar esti 25 de mayu como'l día nacional d'Asturies. Pa ello, entamóse una folixa que cuntó con un recital poéticu, la ellaboración d'un mural y un conciertu con 4 grupos asturianos que punxeron la banda sonora a una xornada reivindicativa pola soberanía popular asturiana.

 

Más d’un cientu de persones participaron esti sábadu 23 na I Folixa Nacional entamada por Fai! como reivindicación y celebración del Día de la Nación Asturiana, recuerdu de la xornada qu’abre la historia contemporánea d’Asturies, el 25 de mayu de 1808, día de la declaración de soberanía de la Xunta Xeneral.

 

Doscientos ún años depués d’esti fechu y de la creación de la bandera asturiana, la organización d'esquierda soberanista Fai! quixo ufrir un menú folixeru y combativu nel marcu del CSOA La Reflexón. Abriendo les actividaes, Sergio Gutiérrez Camblor, Carlos Suari, Pablo X. Suárez, Xabel Vegas y Xandru Fernández protagonizaron el recital poéticu “Poetes agresivos (disparen les sos obres contra los que se duermen)”, onde tuvo bien presente, de la mano de los sos versos, la crítica social y la ironía más característica de cinco poetes que representaron na Folixa’l presente y el futuru de la lliteratura nacional, al tiempu que nes paredes se proyectaben imáxenes subversives qu'afalaben l'ambiente combativu del recital.

 

De siguío, dellos artistes plásticos emprimaben a diseñar un mural que tenía la histórica fras como protagonista: “Asturies enxamás vencida”.

 

Dientro del CSOA, organización, delles puestos de material y músicos ultimaben tolos detalles pa que dende les siete y media, la música entamara a sonar na I Folixa Nacional con un escenariu enllenu d'asturines y de banderes d'otros pueblos en llucha como les de los Països Catalans, Castiella, el País Llionés, Andalucía, Euskal Herria, Palestina...K-Nalón yera’l grupu encargáu de romper el silenciu col so rap dinamiteru 100% n’asturianu.

 

Darréu Arma X y 13 Palabras xubíen al escenariu de La Reflexón pa que la revolución de rimes nun aparara.Metanes l'actuación, una pancarta xubió al escenariu pa denunciar la illegalización de les idées y pola derogación de la llei de partíos.

 

Al finar esta actuación los sones reivindicativos dexaron pasu al actu políticu, onde militantes de Fai! lleeron un manifiestu en favor del 25 de mayu como día nacional d'Asturies. Enantes, un representante del Comité de Sofitu a Iniciativa Internacionalista n'Asturies, que llamentablemente foi la única organización qu'acudió a la llamada que dende Fai! se ficiere a los partíos de la izquierda nacional asturiana pa dicir unes pallabres, agradeció'l convite y presentó la campaña que ta desendolcando'l comité nesti país, a pesar de les torgues y la criminalización que careció y carez esta y otres munches opciones polítiques d'esquierda soberanista nel estáu español.

 

Na segunda metada del conciertu Vinagre de Sidra abría capítulu pa les guitarres y el rock, que yá na fin de la nueche diba zarrar Gomeru, depués de cinco hores de música dende la trinchera más reivindicativa del país.

 

Dende Fai! nun queremos que s'escaeza la nuestra historia, la historia d'un pueblu combativu que siempre supo tar a l'altura de les circunstancies. Güei tócanos a nosotres y nosotros, les y los asturianes y asturianos del sieglu XXI siguir na llucha en busca de la soberanía popular d'Asturies.

Starring Ray “Crash” Corrigan, Lee Van Atta, C. Montague Shaw, Monte Blue, Lois Wilde, John Merton, William Farnum.

 

Undersea Kingdom begins with a protracted introduction to our hero, US Navy lieutenant “Crash” Corrigan (Ray Corrigan), in a series of sequences that establish his athletic prowess. After Crash has excelled at football, wrestling, and other strenuous sports, the main plot gets underway when Corrigan is assigned to accompany scientist Professor Norton (C. Montague Shaw) on a submarine expedition to the bottom of the ocean. Norton is convinced that a recent series of earthquakes are emanating from the lost land of Atlantis–which, according to his theory, was not destroyed when it sank to the ocean floor but instead preserved by a protective dome. Norton, Corrigan, newspaper reporter Diana Compton (Lois Wilde), and Norton’s young son Billy (Lee Van Atta) discover the truth of Norton’s theory when their undersea journey brings them to Atlantis–a country that culturally and sartorially resembles Ancient Greece, but possesses technology never seen in the ancient or modern world. There, they find that the Atlantean tyrant Unga Khan (Monte Blue) has been causing the earthquakes, which are mere test runs for his planned conquest of the “surface world” with his arsenal of destructive weapons. Norton is taken prisoner by Khan, who makes the professor his scientific lackey after after technologically brainwashing him, while Crash is captured by Sharad (William Farnum), the high priest of Poseidon and the leader of an Atlantean faction that opposes Unga Khan. Eventually, Crash convinces Sharad that they share a common enemy, and is given command of the high priest’s “White Robe” army. He takes command of Sharad’s campaign against Unga Khan’s “Black Robes,” while Khan assiduously prepares for an invasion of the unsuspecting surface world.

  

Undersea Kingdom is invariably compared to Universal’s Flash Gordon, which was released two months earlier in 1936; in fact, it’s often cited as a direct imitation of the Universal chapterplay. Given the closeness of the two serials’ release dates, this is unlikely–although Republic did begin producing Kingdom when Universal announced Gordon, no doubt hoping to steal a little of Gordon’s thunder with a sci-fi adventure of their own. Thematically, however, Undersea Kingdom owes more to Phantom Empire, released two years earlier by Republic’s predecessor Mascot, than it does to Flash Gordon. Among the two serials’ points in common are an alien kingdom that is still part of the good old Earth, a child co-hero, and a villainous robot corps. Also like Empire, Kingdom lacks any of the otherworldly atmosphere of Flash Gordon; Atlantis’ locales and inhabitants never come alive the way Mongo’s do. The troubles of Atlantis never becomes involving in their own right; the struggle between Unga Khan and Sharad is a mere backdrop to Khan’s plan to conquer the surface world; (in fact, the final destruction of Sharad’s city is only a side effect of Khan’s attempt to recapture Professor Norton).

However, while Undersea Kingdom is no Flash Gordon, it has much to recommend it. As already mentioned, the writers (John Rathmell, Oliver Drake, Maurice Geraghty, and Tracy Knight) don’t succeed in making Atlantis seem very colorful (although they give the supposedly Greek Atlanteans a wild potpourri of names that hail from Mongolia, ancient Persia, Phoenicia, and many other places), but they keep their plot moving swiftly. The final chapter is unusually exciting, with Unga Khan confidently preparing to blast opposing Navy ships from the ocean as Crash and Norton work frantically to cripple his defenses from within his impregnable tower.

While the serial’s principal outdoor location (Iverson’s Movie Ranch) doesn’t look very otherworldly, both Sharad’s Sacred City (a disguised version of Republic’s Spanish fort, enlarged by some excellent matte work) and Unga Khan’s laboratory are decorated in properly peculiar style, while the serial’s various miniatures (the Atlantean “Volplane,” Norton’s submarine, Khan’s rocket-powered tower) are very well-designed by Howard and Theodore Lydecker. The Juggernaut, a tank-like vehicle that anticipates the Jungle Cruiser in Tim Tyler’s Luck, is similarly impressive, while a squad of robots (called “Volkites” here) will only impress those (like myself) who don’t object to the water- heater-like appearance of the robot in the later Mysterious Doctor Satan; the Volkites are near-duplicates of that automaton.

  

The serial features few of the fistfights common to Republic’s later serials, but compensates by including some truly unique action sequences, chief among them the large-scale attacks on Sharad’s Sacred City by the Black Robes; these battle scenes are beautifully staged by directors Joseph Kane and B. Reeves Eason (Eason directed many similar sequences in silent and sound “spectacles” like 1925’s Ben-Hur and 1936’s Charge of the Light Brigade). The serial’s smaller-scaled swordfights are also well-handled, as are several chariot chases, Crash’s tightrope-walking escape from Khan’s tower, and the wrestling matches between Crash and various opponents (although his repeated success in overpowering two villains at once somewhat stretches credibility). The serial’s chapter endings are interesting (particularly the ones involving Crash’s fall down an elevator shaft, his apparent crushing by the Juggernaut, and the good guys’ failed escape in the Volplane that ends in their being shot down), but too many of them–including the famed Juggernaut cliffhanger–are resolved by blatant “cheats” in the following chapter.

 

The serial’s cast is uneven in terms of acting. Ray Corrigan, excellent as a laid-back but determined cowboy hero in Republic’s Three Mesquiteers films, seems slightly uncomfortable as a swashbuckling near-superhero (with a rather embarrassing outfit); he delivers most of his lines hurriedly in rather stone-faced fashion and lacks the dash that helped Buster Crabbe put across the similarly difficult role of Flash Gordon. Monte Blue is also a bit miscast as the warlord Unga Khan. While Blue was good as more prosaic villains like the evil Yellow Weasel in Hawk of the Wilderness, his appearance and voice aren’t “bravura” enough for such a larger-than-life part. He voices Khan’s megalomaniacal ravings in a harsh monotone, with none of the measured staginess someone like Charles Middleton or Bela Lugosi would have given them.

The lovely Lois Wilde has very little to do as the leading lady, but delivers her lines with a breathless enthusiasm almost unparalleled among serial actresses. Lee Van Atta is good as the capable, if somewhat cocky, Billy Norton, in effect the serial’s co-hero. John Merton features prominently as a tough Black Robe soldier named Moloch who switches over to the good guys’ side and provides Crash with loyal support; Merton handles this change-of-pace part with plenty of vigor and conviction. Lon Chaney Jr. is properly snarling and aggressive as Captain Hakur, the leader of Unga Khan’s Black Robe army, while Raymond Hatton–surprisingly cast as a villain–is his second-in-command. Boothe Howard makes a slick aide-de-camp for Monte Blue, and Lane Chandler is William Farnum’s stalwart lieutenant. Farnum himself handles the role of Sharad with his customary dignity and theatricality, glowering angrily over Unga Khan’s aggression and ringingly declaring his faith in Poseidon. The most refined and assured performance in the serial, however, comes from C. Montague Shaw as Professor Norton. Shaw is calm, dignified, and authoritative as the pre-transformation Norton and whining, crafty, and obsequious as the transformed Professor. His evil chuckling when he’s decoyed Crash into a trap is memorable, and his simple but startling transition back to his previous manner when his mind is restored is excellent.

Smiley Burnette and Frankie Marvin, accompanied by a parrot named Sinbad, are the serial’s designated comic relief, but aren’t given anything amusing in the way of material. Fortunately, they make only a few token appearances throughout the serial. A scrutiny of their scenes shows that their characters were inserted in post-production, apparently to pad out a few chapters’ running time; they never interact with any of the other principals and are never referred to by them (except in one obviously-looped scene). Jack Mulhall and Lloyd Whitlock play naval officers in the first and final chapters, and John Bradford overacts wildly as Joe, Norton’s hysterical assistant who goes berserk at the prospect of descending to the ocean depths. George DeNormand doubles for Ray Corrigan in the action scenes and plays various Atlantean guards, along with fellow stuntmen Eddie Parker, Tom Steele, and Bill Yrigoyen.

Undersea Kingdom, while not as slick as later Republics or as colorful as its contemporary Flash Gordon, is a definite step up from Mascot predecessors like Phantom Empire when it comes to production values and smoothness of plotting. The serial belongs to a developmental stage in Republic Pictures’ history, but is no less appealing because of that; while few fans or critics (this author among them) would rate it as one of Republic’s best serials, it usually holds a warm spot in their esteem.

Again, Glen Canyon. If you wanna tour a dam, do Glen Canyon and not Hoover, which was a giant tourist trap where no one got to see much of anything...

 

I was wondering yesterday why is it that Chinese girls look so young, and I think it's because here most people under 20 are still consider very young, and it's acceptable for them to like somewhat childish things. I mean that in the best sense, as in there's not so much interest starting in the early teens to start wearing make-up, dress sexy, etc. But we'll see if that changes with all these western style fashion ads and the Chinese versions of Elle and all that.

 

Nicole Kidman is plastered on a huge building in People Square. Doesn't damage domestic arty actress image to take commercial jobs in Asia and all that I guess. But stuff like that combined with seeing Hungarian photography (including Capa) at the Shanghai MoCA makes me wonder why I don't just see these things at the MOMA. Ah globalization. I suppose that's a very typical of a traveller though. The locals might be more interested in the imports. Today I'm hoping to go to a more local scene and see if that doesn't feel more homegrown.

La costumbre de reunirse en bandos, muy extendida en invierno, desaparece al llegar la época de cría, cuando las parejas de calandrias se reparten para anidar en campos abiertos, cultivados o baldíos, así como en pastizales o entre plantas halófilas. Allí los machos se elevan a veces a considerable altura y vuelan en círculos emitiendo un canto parecido al de la Alondra Común, pero fuerte y con frecuencia imitativo, que dura varios minutos, tras lo cual se lanzan a tierra con un vuelo en picado. El reclamo es un grito nasal característico. El nido está situado en una depresión del suelo, generalmente oculto por una planta. Realizada la cría de los cuatro a seis pollos, cuando éstos pueden volar, se reúnen con los adultos en bandos más o menos numerosos. La Calandria Común es una especie característica del Mediterráneo, y aunque su área se extiende por el este hasta las regiones del Caspio y Aral, falta en las Baleares, donde ha sido observada, al parecer, rarísima vez. En cambio, en la Península es bastante común en terrenos apropiados, faltando en una ancha franja norteña y en Galicia. Identificación: Es la mayor de las alaúdidas; macho: robusto pico pardo-amarillento; por encima, pardo negruzco con bordes posteriores de las alas pardo-grisáceos; por debajo, blancuzco, con pecho ocráceo algo listado de pardo, y una gran mancha negra en forma de cuerno a cada lado de la base del cuello; en la hembra, manchas más pequeñas. Nidificación: Nido, de hierbas secas, en tierra, junto a alguna planta, en sembrados de cereal o barbechos; puesta, de abril a junio, de 4 a 6 huevos blanco sucio, muy manchados de pardo y de gris; incubación, por la hembra, de unos 16 días; los pollos vuelan tras unos 12 días; a veces dos crías. Alimentación: Especialmente hierbecillas; también insectos, como coleópteros y dípteros. Hábitat: Matorrales y campos baldíos

Il 26 gennaio in tutta Italia si sono verificate 52 perquisizioni che hanno portato a 26 arresti e 16 denunce a piede libero per le mobilitazioni contro la costruzione della linea ad alta velocità Torino-Lione (TAV). Le accuse sono resistenza, violenza, lesioni a pubblico ufficiale e riguardano in particolare i fatti di Chiomonte del 3 luglio, quando una grandissima manifestazione si era opposta alla costruzione del “fortino”, creato per proteggere il cantiere di questa grande opera.

 

Ma alla popolazione della Val Susa, come a tutti noi, un modello di sviluppo incentrato su devastazione del territorio e sempre maggiori profitti per speculatori e padroni vari, non serve.

 

Dal 1991 in Val Susa i comitati popolari NoTav si battono contro questa linea ferroviaria sulla quale si giocano enormi interessi economici; interessi che sono in antitesi con i bisogni e le condizioni di vita reali della maggior parte della popolazione. In questo modo il capitalismo italiano cerca di rilanciare il proprio ruolo all’interno dell’UE, diventando una piattaforma di transito-merci e manodopera, e imponendo alla popolazione i costi economici, sociali, ambientali e militari dell’operazione. In Val Susa abbiamo visto una lotta partecipata, condivisa che ha travalicato i confini della valle, contribuendo a palesare i limiti di questo modello sociale.

Mentre la Tav passa sulla testa delle popolazioni, è in atto l’ulteriore smantellamento dei diritti nel mondo del lavoro annunciato dal governo tecnico.

 

In questi ultimi mesi, e anni, si sono moltiplicate le lotte dei lavoratori contro la chiusura delle fabbriche, lo sfruttamento, la continua precarizzazione dei contratti di lavoro, la mercificazione dell’istruzione.

 

Ne sono un esempio le aziende occupate, i presidi permanenti dei lavoratori, le mobilitazioni degli studenti, o dei comitati territoriali che si oppongono a progetti di devastazione territoriale attraverso la creazione di discariche (Chiaiano) o infrastrutture (ponte sullo stretto, TEM).

All’interno di queste lotte si sono mossi fino ad oggi gli arrestati. Le misure restrittive, coadiuvate dalla spettacolarizzazione mediatica, criminalizzano le lotte cercano di isolare questi compagni dal tessuto sociale in cui sono inseriti. Ma il movimento Notav è una lotta popolare con una esperienza ventennale che attraverso un senso di partecipazione attiva alla lotta ha sviluppato dei validi anticorpi alla distinzione tra buoni e cattivi.

 

Le lotte di oggi, per quanto frammentarie e parziali, pongono una critica profonda al capitalismo, e rappresentano un’anticamera concreta allo sviluppo di un diverso sistema sociale. Proprio questa alternativa preoccupa la classe dirigente. Nel tentativo di riproporre lo spauracchio degli infiltrati nei movimenti sociali (siano essi terroristi o blackblock), la toga rossa Caselli ha affermato che “questo non è un attacco alla Valsusa”. Infatti non lo è. E’ un attacco contro tutti i movimenti sociali in lotta.

Libertà per tutte e tutti!

Beaumaris Castle, located in Beaumaris, Anglesey, Wales was built as part of King Edward I's campaign to conquer the north of Wales. It was designed by James of St. George and was begun in 1295, but never completed. Beaumaris has been designated as a World Heritage site.

 

Beaumaris castle was positioned to face Garth Celyn on the opposite shore of the Menai Strait and was intended, along with Conwy Castle and Caernarfon castle at either end of the Menai Strait, to overshadow the Welsh Royal home and centre of resistance to the English forces.

 

Beaumaris Castle (beau mareys - fair marsh) was the last of Edward I's fortresses in North Wales. Work started in 1295 and continued for 35 years, with over 3,500 workmen employed at the peak of construction. Finances and material ran out when King Edward turned his attentions towards Scotland, and the castle was not completed, although an impressive £15,000 was expended on its construction.

 

During the course of construction Edward I of England ordered that the inhabitants of nearby Llanfaes be evicted from their homes and relocated to the far side of the island at Newborough.

 

The King's architect, Master James of St. George, brought all his experience to bear in designing Beaumaris — its defences and lines of supply are superbly planned. It was constructed according to a concentric plan — the inner ward is completely surrounded by the outer ward. The castle has a tidal dock allowing it to be supplied directly by sea and is surrounded by a water-filled moat. The defences include numerous ingeniously sited arrow slits, and the entrances are protected by murder holes from which substances such as hot oil could be poured over enemy forces. Attackers of Beaumaris Castle would have met 14 separate obstacles and four lines of fortification resulting from the 'walls within walls' design.

 

The plan of the castle is nearly square, sharing much in common with Caerphilly and Harlech. The inner ward is rectangular with a round tower at each corner. On the north and south sides are massive gatehouses following the typical pattern of two D-shaped towers flanking the gate passage, while two more D-shaped towers defend the east and west walls. The great hall and other domestic buildings would have been constructed within this inner ward.

 

Surrounding the inner bailey (in accordance with the concentric ideal) is an outer wall defended by towers and its own two gatehouses. These are not aligned with the inner gatehouses and would have denied attackers the advantage of a straight path through the gates. The dock wall extends from the south wall near the gatehouse so also serves as a defensive firing platform. Unlike the simple outer walls at Caerphilly and Harlech, the walls here are very thick and have internal passages to allow defenders access to protected arrow slits.

 

The plan was nearly perfect, but the castle was never completed. The Welsh conquest was practically complete at the time of construction, and the immense cost of completing such a massive fortress would have drained funds needed for the Scottish campaigns. Neither the towers of the inner ward nor the great gatehouses were built to full height and many buildings of the inner ward were left unfinished when large scale work ceased in 1298. Small-scale work was carried out in the early 14th century. However, the outer walls were crenelated, and unlike many other castles Beaumaris did not suffer slighting during the Civil War — the extant castle is very well-preserved.

While on our holidays we decided to check out Marineland ......I hadn't been there since 1992 and my kids had never been at all. I did enjoy myself......but found it to be a little pricey for what they had to offer. (More walking than anything)

But the BEST part was the shows........that made it worth while.

 

This is the big poppa of the Beluga Whales at Marineland........he is 40+yrs old

This was taken through the glass at the underground viewing area.

He must of had one heck of an itch......he just kept rubbing himself against this rock........(at least I hope it was an itch)...lol ~wink~

From www.collingsfoundation.org:

 

The B-17G (Serial # 44-83575) has been returned to its wartime configuration under the auspices of the nonprofit Collings Foundation of Stow, MA and given the name "Nine-O-Nine".

 

The Collings Flying Fortress was built at Long Beach, CA by the Douglas Aircraft Company and accepted on April 7, 1945. Although she was too late for combat, #44-83575 did serve as part of the Air/Sea 1st Rescue Squadron and later in the Military Air Transport Service.

 

In April 1952, #44-83575 was instrumented and subjected to the effects of three different nuclear explosions. After a thirteen-year "cool down" period, #44-83575 was sold as part of an 800-ton scrap pile and Aircraft Specialties Company began the restoration of the aircraft.

 

Damaged skin was fabricated and replaced on site; engines and props were stripped, cleaned, repaired, and tested; four thousand feet of new control cable was installed; all electrical wiring and instrumentation was replaced. As she neared completion, the jeers and laughter of those who said she would never fly again faded as the sounds of four 1200 HP Wright-Cyclone engines echoed across the desert and "Yucca Lady" rose as the phoenix and climbed into the sky.

 

For twenty years, without a major problem or incident, #44-83575 served as a fire bomber dropping water and borate on forest fires. She was sold in January 1986 to the Collings Foundation. Restored back to her original wartime configuration by Tom Reilly Vintage Aircraft, she represented one of the finest B-17 restorations and won several awards.

 

The Collings Foundation B-17 was named "Nine-O-Nine" in honor of a 91st Bomb Group, 323rd Squadron plane of the same name which completed 140 missions without an abort or loss of a crewman.

Xiaohuanetik paseatzen ari nintzela, herri osoko atentzioa jasotzen neban, ziurrenik haiek neretzeko, ni eurentzako bezain arraroa nintzen. Bapatean bi emakume kantatzen ari jatazan, pixkanaka beste batzuk bildu ziran, ta prestatu gabeko kantu sesio ederraz gozatzeko parada aeuki neban, horrelakoa da Dong herria...

 

Paseando por Xiaohuang, puede decirse que era el centro de atención de todo el pueblo, seguramente yo era tan raro para ellos como ellos lo eran para mi. De repente dos ancianas comenzaron a cantar, y otras más se les unieron , pudiendo gozar de un increible espectáculo improvisado. El pueblo Dong es así.....

 

Walking through Xiaohuang, i was whatched with curiosity by the villagers, i was rare for them as they were for me. Sudenly two women started singing a traditional song, and other grandmothers joined them to give us a great spectacle of there culture. Dong people is like that....

The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It was conceived and largely built by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, who, in 2003, received the Pritzker Prize, architecture's highest honour.

 

The Sydney Opera House was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 28 June 2007. Currently, it is the most recently constructed World Heritage Site to be designated as such, sharing this distinction with such ancient landmarks as Stonehenge and the Giza Necropolis. It is one of the 20th century's most distinctive buildings and one of the most famous performing arts centres in the world.

 

The Sydney Opera House is situated on Bennelong Point in Sydney Harbour, close to the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It sits at the northeastern tip of the Sydney central business district (the CBD), surrounded on three sides by the harbour (Sydney Cove and Farm Cove) and neighboured by the Royal Botanic Gardens.

 

The Opera House was formally completed in 1973, having cost $102 million.

Well, I finally made it back to Richmond Park yesterday, it's only taken me FIVE YEARS!!! Not been there since 2009!!! and I nearly didn't go yesterday either, because of initial bad weather and engineering works on the railway...it was a Sunday I guess, that's power for the course!!!

Anyhoo, I was rewarded with my FIRST ever Fallow deer Rut, which was pretty intense for 5 minutes!!

Hope everybody had a great Weekend..:)

  

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~ This article is about the deer genus. For other uses, see Dama (disambiguation).

 

Description ~ The male fallow deer is known as a buck, the female is a doe, and the young a fawn. Adult bucks are 140–160 cm (55–63 in) long with a 85–95 cm (33–37 in) shoulder height, and typically 60–100 kg (130–220 lb) in weight; does are 130–150 cm (51–59 in) long with a 75–85 cm (30–33 in) shoulder height, and 30–50 kg (66–110 lb) in weight. The largest bucks may measure 190 cm (75 in) long and weigh 150 kg (330 lb). Fawns are born in spring at about 30 cm (12 in) and weigh around 4.5 kg (9.9 lb). The life span is around 12–16 years.

 

The species has great variations in the colour of their coats, with four main variants, "common", "menil", melanistic and leucistic – a genuine colour variety, not albinistic. The white is the lightest coloured, almost white; common and menil are darker, and melanistic is very dark, sometimes even black (easily confused with the sika deer).

 

Common: Chestnut coat with white mottles that are most pronounced in summer with a much darker, unspotted coat in the winter. Light-coloured area around the tail, edged with black. Tail is light with a black stripe.

Menil: Spots more distinct than common in summer and no black around the rump patch or on the tail. In winter, spots still clear on a darker brown coat.

Melanistic (black): All year black shading to greyish-brown. No light-coloured tail patch or spots.

Leucistic (white, but not albino): Fawns cream-coloured, adults become pure white, especially in winter. Dark eyes and nose, no spots.

Most herds consist of the common coat variation, yet it is not rare to see animals of the menil coat variation. The Melanistic variation is rarer and white very much rarer still.

 

Only bucks have antlers, which are broad and shovel-shaped (palmate) from three years. In the first two years the antler is a single spike. They are gazing animals; their preferred habitat is mixed woodland and open grassland. During the rut bucks will spread out and females move between them, at this time of year fallow deer are relatively ungrouped compared to the rest of the year when they try to stay together in groups of up to 150.

 

Agile and fast in case of danger, fallow deer can run up to a maximum speed of 30 mph (48 km/h) over short distances (being naturally less muscular than other cervids such as roe deer, they are not as fast). Fallow deer can also make jumps up to 1.75 metres high and up to 5 metres in length.

View Large On Black Some people equate the terms bad and evil but there is a difference in the way these two terms are commonly used. As they are most commonly used, evil is the subset of all that is bad delineated from what is merely bad by a conscious intent to do harm. Something is bad if it causes harm but is only evil if some conscious being intended the harm. Evil carries a moral punch. The evil is in the intention. There are therefore bad things or events that are not definitively evil, at least as these two terms are commonly used. If a mudslide destroys a village and people die in their sleep, what has happened is very bad but not evil for it is merely an act of nature, but if somebody had a chance to warn them but didn’t because they wanted them to die, then their failure to warn them would be evil. The evil is in the intent to do harm or allow harm to be done.

 

The above photo is highly manipulated but is “based on reality”. The reality rests in the two photos that I took within thirty hours of each other. On the first day, I was driving around the beltline on the east side of my home town when I saw this vehicle with the sign, “CAUTION, DO NOT TAILGATE, SHOW GOAT SEMEN ON BOARD.” I quickly grabbed my camera and captured the image you see above, well, most of that image. There was another image that formed in my mind, an image based on but differing from the reality of the photograph that I had just taken. I wanted to make a point. The next day, I spotted a car that was rather ordinary, but it displayed what I wanted to complete the image that had formed in my mind, an Obama bumper sticker. I quickly photographed the back of that car.

 

After I downloaded the two images from my camera onto my computer, I changed the name of the company printed on the truck to “Superboy Semen”, the license plate number to 666-OWW and removed the owner’s phone number and other identifying information. Then I added the Obama’ 08 sign to the back. The Obama’08 sign was on the back a parked car to my right and the photo was taken from a different angle than the back of the goat semen truck which was to my left. I first changed the perspective (angle) of the Obama’08 bumper sticker to match what it would have been on the back of the truck and then resized it. Then I transferred it to the truck, erased the sticker part of it and changed the color and blur of the lettering to somewhat match the “CAUTION, DO NOT TAILGATE . . . ” sign immediately above it. Finally, after a few more minor changes, I photoshopped seven layers of the altered image and merged them into a final composite which you see above.

 

The result is a photo I can truthfully say is “based on the truth” because the truck really existed as did the Obama’08 sticker. Now it was not my intention to pick on Obama, I actually admire the guy, but to make this point. I don’t like underhanded, manipulated news reporting on any issue. How can I vote my conscious if I‘m being mislead? How can I know what or who to support if I am being fed partial lies? My purpose in posting this photo is to show graphically what members of JournoList did verbally and graphically on a regular basis to manipulate the news to support their candidates and causes. The big difference is that I am telling you what I did openly and out front. What they did, they did it in secret, never intending to tell their readers and listeners. Did they do evil? Did they intend to harm anybody? Well they harmed the voters right to know the whole truth and they conspired to harm opponents with spurious news stories that they released separately, but in unison. I’ve always admired (not) the ability of the liberal media to be outraged in lockstep. Now we have proof how they do it. One thing we can be sure, what these JournoList members did was a bad way to report the news. This is not a minor problem.

Villa de 323 h.; situada a 437 m. de altitud; municipio propio al sur de la Hoya de Huesca, con quien enlaza por la carretera comarcal C-1310. Su primera mención documental data dcl año 1104, en el Cartulario de Montearagón; un año antes Pedro 1 daba a la Catedral de Huesca el castillo de Sesa; censaba 28 fuegos en 1495.Tradicionalmente se ha situado en Sesa la ceca Ibérica de Sesars que emitió numerario diverso en plata y bronce a partir de la primera mitad del s. II; la arqueología no ha corroborado tal ubicación. El casco urbano se acopla al sureste de una muela donde se alzó el castro medieval, totalmente desaparecido, hoy coronada por la ermita Virgen de la Jarca. La parroquial románica -s. XII- está dedicada a San Juan Bautista. Hacia el sur necrópolis medieval excavada en un banco de arenisca.

Se encuentra dentro de lo que se ha venido a llamar "Ruta de las Piedras Fecundantes".

En su termino municipal podemos visitar dos excelentes ejemplos de esta curiosidad Mistico/Arquitectonica.La Cueva Ratona y la de Castó

During the Inca Empire, the Inti Raymi was the most important of four ceremonies celebrated in Cusco, as related by Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. The celebration took place in the Haukaypata or the main plaza in the city.

 

The Inti Raymi ("Festival of the Sun") was a religious ceremony of the Inca Empire in honor of the god Inti, one of the most venerated gods in Inca religion. It really was the celebration of the Winter Solstice - the shortest day of the year in terms of the time between sunrise and sunset. In South America, which falls below the equator, the months of June & July are Winter months.

 

According to chronicler Garcilaso de la Vega, Sapa Inca Pachacuti created the Inti Raymi to celebrate the new year in the Andes of the Southern Hemisphere. Since 1944, a theatrical representation of the Inti Raymi has been taking place at Sacsayhuamán (two km. from Cusco) on June 24 of each year, attracting thousands of tourists and local visitors. The ceremony was also said to indicate the mythical origin of the Incas. It lasted for nine days and was filled with colorful dances and processions, as well as animal sacrifices to ensure a good cropping season. The last Inti Raymi with the Inca Emperor's presence was carried out in 1535, after which the Spanish conquest and the Catholic Church share it.

 

In 1944, a historical reconstruction of the Inti Raymi was directed by Faustino Espinoza Navarro and indigenous actors. The first reconstruction was largely based on the chronicles of Garcilaso de la Vega and only referred to the religious ceremony.

 

Inti Raymi is still celebrated in indigenous cultures throughout the Andes. Celebrations involve music, colorful costumes (most notable the woven aya huma mask) and the sharing of food. In many parts of the Andes, this celebration has been connected to the festivals of Saint John the Baptist, which falls on the day after the summer solstice (June 21).

COMUNICATO STAMPA:

 

GREENPEACE IN 18 CITTA’: BOLLETTE NUCLEARI, COSTI STELLARI

  

Milano, 17 ottobre 2009 – I volontari del gruppo locale di Milano di Greenpeace hanno distribuito oggi, davanti agli uffici postali di via Dante le nuove bollette che l’Enel ci presenterà nel 2020, nel caso si riuscisse a riportare il nucleare in Italia così come sostengono la stessa azienda elettrica e il governo.

 

“Enel e governo devono smetterla di prendere in giro il Paese sostenendo che il nucleare servirà ad abbassare le bollette degli italiani – spiega Roberto di Lernia, coordinatore del gruppo locale Milano di Greenpeace. - In realtà le bollette schizzeranno alle stelle, proprio come quelle che stiamo distribuendo oggi”.

 

Il costo del nucleare non dipende solo dal combustibile e dalla gestione degli impianti ma, per chi deve partire da zero come l’Italia, è dovuto principalmente al costo di realizzazione degli impianti. In Finlandia i nuovi reattori EPR, quelli che l’Enel vorrebbe realizzare in Italia, ha ormai superato i 5,5 miliardi di euro. Il peso finanziario di un investimento iniziale così oneroso sarà recuperato attraverso l’energia elettrica venduta. Il prezzo del kilowattora nucleare, ai costi reali e non a quelli propagandati da Enel, sarà più che doppio rispetto a quanto viene oggi scambiato alla borsa elettrica.

 

“Il nucleare è economico solo se qualcuno ti regala la centrale e se lo Stato si fa carico di gestire le scorie radioattive per secoli, altrimenti è una pura follia economica” afferma Francesco Tedesco, responsabile della Campagna Energia e Clima di Greenpeace. Oltre ai costi per la realizzazione degli impianti bisogna anche tener conto degli accantonamenti per lo smantellamento dei reattori, della copertura assicurativa in caso di incidenti gravi, dei costi per il riprocessamento delle scorie, per la bonifica dei siti contaminati e per la realizzazione del futuro deposito geologico di stoccaggio.

 

“Con il rilancio del nucleare si permette alle aziende di fare profitti, scaricando i rischi e i costi sulle spalle dei contribuenti e delle generazioni future. E poi puntare sul nucleare ci farà inoltre mancare gli obiettivi europei al 2020 per lo sviluppo delle rinnovabili, con ulteriori sanzioni per la collettività” aggiunge Tedesco.

 

Entro il 2020 le fonti rinnovabili insieme a misure di efficienza energetica sono in grado di produrre quasi 150 miliardi di kilowattora, circa tre volte l’obiettivo del governo sul nucleare, creando almeno 200 mila nuovi posti di lavoro “verdi”. La strada verso l’indipendenza energetica dell’Italia passa obbligatoriamente attraverso lo sviluppo delle rinnovabili, senza costi aggiuntivi per il Paese, senza scorie pericolose da gestire per i prossimi 100 mila anni e senza rischi per la popolazione.

 

Attività simili sono in corso oggi anche in altre 17 città italiane: Pescara, Bergamo, Firenze, Roma, Torino, Varese, Castelli romani, Genova, Bari, Salerno, Padova, Trieste, Taranto, Urbino, Catania, Napoli, Bologna.

Una a una las minúsculas células esféricas de Microcystis se van dividiendo, casi como si fuera de forma mágica, y una a una van modelando pequeños grumos encadenados, grumos de diminutas nubes verdes que flotan en el agua. Precisamente a ese color verde hace alusión el epíteto específico de esta cianobacteria, aeruginosa derivado del vocablo latino "aerugo" que significa cobre oxidado y que se refiere a la coloración verde azulada que con frecuencia presentan las colonias de esta especie. Por otra parte Microcystis, el nombre genérico de esta cianobacteria de la que se reconocen cerca de 53 taxones diferentes, alude al pequeño tamaño y a la apariencia de cesto de sus células

 

La facilidad que presenta Microcystis aeruginosa para flotar se debe en buena medida a las pequeñas vesículas de gas que almacenan sus células en el citoplasma, esta particularidad junto con la extendida forma que presentan las colonias de esta especie hace que sea fácil encontrar, incluso a simple vista, los pequeños grumos verdes a los que da lugar en los lugares en los que está presente. Todo ello favorece su supervivencia pues de esta forma tiene la posibilidad de captar fácilmente la radiación luminosa que necesita para realizar la fotosíntesis.

 

Las células de Microcystis se reparten de forma homogénea dentro de la matriz transparente y gelatinosa que les sirve de abrigo, escudo y flotador. Son minúsculas y esféricas, de apenas unas pocas micras de diámetro y a plena luz del día muestran un color verdoso o azulado, que con el paso del tiempo, cuando se agotan los nutrientes, se transforma en amarillento, hasta apagar su luz . Son tan pequeñas que parece imposible que puedan dividirse y sin embargo, se reproducen así, partiéndose, siguiendo los tres planos del espacio y de este modo hacen crecer el abanico de color en el que habitan, mientras rellenan sus casi invisibles cuerpos de pequeñas burbujitas de Nitrógeno, contenidas en vacuolas.

 

En el embalse de Almendra, uno de los que mayor volumen de agua embalsa en la Península Ibérica y construido en el valle del río Tormes, cerca ya de la frontera con Portugal, entre las provincias de Zamora y Salamanca, la floración de esta cianobacteria junto con la de Anabaena flos-aquae está generando la alarma justificada en las poblaciones que se abastecen del agua de este embalse para su consumo y el consorcio encargado su gestión ha prohibido el consumo de agua potable en 18 municipios de la comarca zamorana de Sayago.

 

Tanto Microcystis aeruginosa como Anabaena flos-aquae producen potentes toxinas que pueden afectar al sistema nervioso y al hígado fundamentalmente (microcistina y anatoxina-a), además de otros compuestos nocivos cuyos efectos todavía se están estudiando. Microcystis aeruginosa es una de las principales cianobacterias que cuando florecen en el agua causan problemas debido a su toxicidad y a su elevado consumo de oxígeno que en circunstancias extremas puede provocar problemas de anoxia en el agua con el consiguiente efecto letal sobre la fauna acuática.

 

El crecimiento en masa de esta cianobacteria, que generalmente prolifera en medios eutróficos, se ve favorecido por las elevadas temperaturas del agua,pero no se daría si en el agua no estuvieran presentes los nutrientes que necesita para desarrollarse, y especialmente el fósforo. Los florecimientos de cianobacterias como Microcystis aeruginosa o Anabaena flos-aquae suelen estar asociados a medios acuáticos en los que existe un elevado contenido de fósforo procedente de la escorrentía que afecta a terrenos agrícolas abonados con compuestos de fósforo, pero también, Microcystis aeruginosa se nutre de glifosato, a pesar de que las altas concentraciones de este compuesto puedan inhibir su crecimiento.

 

La temperatura y otros factores ambientales parecen influir en la producción de toxinas como las microcistinas por parte de Microcystis aeruginosa , pero también parecen haberse encontrados cepa de esta especie que no generan estos compuestos tóxicos.

 

Parece prudente el prohibir el consumo de agua cuando en casos como éste se detecta su presencia, y cada vez se hace más necesario el que tomemos conciencia de que los ecosistemas acuáticos son frágiles, nuestra vida y la de otros seres dependen de ellos.

 

En nuestra mano está el poder aprovecharlos disfrutándolos haciendo una cosa bien sencilla: cuidarlos como si fueran nuestra casa... Mar Menor, río Tajo, Lago de Sanabria y otros cientos y cientos de ecosistemas acuáticos que en nuestro país o se están convirtiendo o se han convertido ya en vertederos.

 

La Naturaleza siempre es generosa, quizá nuestros hijos merezcan tener una bonita casa en ella, y no un triste vertedero.

 

La fotografía de hoy, realizada a 200 aumentos empleando la técnica de campo oscuro, se ha tomado sobre una muestra recolectada a un metro de profundidad, el 1 de octubre de 2016, en el Embalse de Almendra (Zamora)

In 1969 The Honda Motor Company launched a motorcycle that many consider to be the world’s first super bike. The Honda CB750 had the first mass-produced 4 cylinder inline engine, a single overhead camshaft with 4 carburettors, a 4 into 4 exhaust system and came with electric start and front disc brakes as standard. This specification set the bar higher than had been seen before on a production motorcycle and lead to the other Japanese motorcycle manufacturers introducing their own 4 cylinder motorcycles, albeit some time later.

Following the success for the original CB750 Honda went on to produce a range of motorcycles using SOHC 4 cylinder engines. All with their own characteristic s, they proved to be reliable and smooth running and even today can offer real reliable transport on modern roads if restored correctly.

Now with some examples over 40 years old many enthusiasts wish to restore these classic machines.

This book has been written to guide the enthusiast through his or her restoration of these fine classic motorcycles.

Octobox camera right on AB1600

 

You pick up this working girl who's hooked on smack, who hussles and scores. "That's all I do" she says,

 

"Ten bucks for head, fifteen for half-and-half". She says "Three hits a day at 35 per", you say "that's seven tricks a day at least", but she says "sometimes I get lucky. Once this guy gives me a bill-and-half just to eat me, only time I ever came".

 

You figure you can save her.

 

You sell your color TV, that keeps her off the streets a whole day. You hawk your typewriter for one job. Then your shotgun, your watch. A week later you say "Listen I'm a little short", but she says "No scratch, no snatch". You say "Look it is better to give", but she says "Beat off creep". One night they spot you on the street in your skibbies, trying to sell your shoes. You tell them who you are, but they nail you. Then she happens by and she says " Christ, you look fucked",

 

she says "Hang tough!". But you don't say anything, you just think "what a bum rap for a nice, sensitive guy like me".

Delicious full frame goodness....

 

It was a tough decision between this shot and another out-take. Because of the wide aperture, very close composition and full frame camera, the dof is extreme - so much so that the image might be considered oof (the focus point was the filling in the middle of the 1st wrap). But I went with this cos I liked how the dof worked on this image.

 

I am thankful that I have always had food to eat now as well as when I was growing up. Its a blessing that is too easily forgotten.

 

With that in mind, if you ever thought you had a terrible childhood, look at these images - however bad it may seem, someone has always has had it worse... and for that we should all be thankful!

Out of the frozen tundra comes the Arctic Skull Bunny! They are just as cute but so much more rare than other Skull Bunnies. They love the cold and snow so they only come out in the winter. The rest of the year they hide so catch one while you can.

 

These bunnies are LIMITED EDITION, which means THEY WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED TIME! Of course, being limited edition means they also come with a signed & numbered tag from Spooky Daddy himself.

 

But just like their cousins the regular Skull Bunnies each one is handmade out of super soft fleece with spooky love and attention to detail.

 

Since they are handmade no 2 are ever exactly the same. But they all are approx. 11 inches and filled with squishy polyfill. The eyes and faces are carefully machine sewn for duriblity.

 

If your Skull Bunny gets dirty don't worry you can easily spot clean them with a wet washcloth. Or if they get absolutely filthy just tie them up in a pillow case and toss them in the washer on a cold gentle cycle. And then dry them on low and they will be good and spooky as new and smellin real nice!

 

While awaiting the arrival of your new pal, you may choose to prepare for him. Here's a handy list of things you can do:

 

1.) Be sure to have a dark spot for him to hide in when he's feeling shy.

 

2.) Also, provide him with a nice sunny spot to frolick in when he's feeling peppy. You should also remember that he will only frolick when he's alone, so the sunny spot should be left attended for one half-to one hour per day.

 

3.) Provide some fake snow (or salt will work in a pinch) to recreate his natural habitat. HOWEVER, IT IS STRONGLY ADVISED AGAINST PLACING YOUR SKULL BUNNY IN A MAYONNAISE JAR. I know it'd a little snow globe but please resist the urge to contain his cuteness. He will thank you for it.

 

4.) Stop vacuuming underneath your bed. Your Skull Bunny will roam late at night, scouring your home for cookie crumbs (which are his sole source of sustinance.) Also, if you do not eat cookies near or in your bed, you should begin this practice 1-2 days prior to your Skull Bunny's arrival.

 

Taking these steps will ensure you and your Skull Bunny have a happy, harmoniously spooky life together!

 

Ecocentro Danaus (<-- video) is located a couple miles east of La Fortuna Costa Rica. It's a fairly small reserve, 600 meters of walking trails, but boy, do they pack a LOT in such a small area. Danaus was created about 13 years ago when some forward thinking people decided it might be better to grow life than cut it down. Danaus is like a mini oasis since it's completely surrounded by pasture and cattle land. Here's what Ecocentro Danaus says about itself: 'Ecocentro Danaus is an ecological reserve that preserves a natural regenerating secondary forest. Many different biological processes take place here and there is a great biodiversity of flora and fauna in its natural state.'Danaus is worth a look if your in the La Fortuna area and you need something to do for a couple hours.

Dentro de la marabunta de reediciones en HD y remakes que se están produciendo desde hace unos años, ha habido un caso reciente que nos ha llamado la atención. Sí, el de la puesta al día del ‘Resident Evil’ de 2002. Una reedición con unos cuantos retoques, principalmente estéticos y sin demasiado peso, que nos llevan a una situación un tanto delirante: es el remake (o remasterización) del remake homonimo de un clásico de 1996 que deleitó al mundo en PC, Playstation y Saturn.

Pero es que la cosa tiene más miga al saber que Capcom ha anunciado este “nuevo” ‘Resident Evil’ solamente para PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 y Xbox One, dejando de lado Wii U, al parecer porque los usuarios de Wii (y por lo tanto los de Wii U) siguen teniendo la opción del ‘Resident Evil Archives: Resident Evil’. Aunque no es lo mismo, vaya, porque ni es en HD ni cuenta con ese control sin giros.

La generación del refrito: dinero fácil

 

Desde que nos adentramos en las pantallas en HD o FullHD los desarrolladores tardaron poco en empezar a sacar tajada de esto. Actualmente la lista es bastante grande, con PS3 y Xbox 360 como las consolas que más apuestan por rescatar clásicos de PS2 y Xbox, sin olvidar que en PC también se apuesta por este tipo de iniciativas (véase el caso de ‘Resident Evil 4 HD’ para Steam), y con una Wii U que ha hecho sus pinitos, siendo el ejemplo más resaltable ‘The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker’.

Ya no resulta raro hoy en día, por lo tanto, ver una reedición o un remake. Lo tenemos asumido y no es algo ni bueno ni malo, simplemente está ahí, es una opción. Salvo a la hora de paliar la falta de novedades, como sucedió en su día con ‘Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition’ en PS4 y Xbox One.

Tampoco hay que omitir el hecho de que ciertas compañías se perdieron el mítico programa de Joaquín Prat, en el sentido de que muchas veces se pasan del precio que consideraríamos justo. Por lo general las reediciones compensan cuando dentro del lote van dos o tres juegos más. Ahí sí.

Esto nos lleva a recordar que cuando Capcom sacó las reediciones en HD de ‘Resident Evil 4′ y ‘Resident Evil Code: Veronica X’ lo hizo al salvaje precio de 19,99 euros por cada uno. Muy bestia.

Sin embargo el “nuevo” ‘Resident Evil’ no entra dentro del mismo grupo que esos, al no ser sólo una mera reedición en HD, con mejoras en las texturas, sonido y resolución (1080p), al ofrecer la posibilidad de disfrutar de un control opcional más manejable, sin los giros del original de 1996.

La bendita ironía del “nuevo” Resident Evil

 

Recapacitando, lo que nos llama la atención de esta edición es su procedencia. Tiene mucha miga:

BioHazard (22 de marzo de 1996, Japón): el origen de todo. En España tuvimos que esperar a primeros de agosto del mismo año para disfrutarlo bajo el nombre de ‘Resident Evil’ Tras debutar en PSone, salió en PC en diciembre de 1996 en Japón. Y al año siguiente a España La SEGA Saturn contó con una versión especial con varios añadidos en 1997 En ese mismo año salió ‘Resident Evil: Director’s Cut’ en PSone con ligeros retoques Hasta hubo una segunda versión especial, llamada ‘Resident Evil: Dual Shock Ver.’ Ya en 2002 Capcom rehizo por completo ‘Resident Evil’ y lo lanzó en Game Cube. Juegazo que no solamente mejoró el apartado estético, sino que nos brindó nuevas salas y más cosas Nintendo DS, por contra, apostó por revivir el original de 1996 con ‘Resident Evil: Deadly Silence’. Aparte de diversos cambios y novedades, llamó la atención su modo multijugador para cuatro Finalmente, en Europa disfrutamos de una adaptación del clásico de 2002 en Wii bajo el nombre de ‘Resident Evil Archives: Resident Evil’, con más tipos de control gracias al Wiimote y nunchuck

Esto nos lleva al presente, con este ‘Resident Evil’ (2015) que se aprovechará de lo visto en Game Cube y Wii para imprimirle cuatro retoques más, la entrada en la alta definición y un control sin los giros, algo muy característico de la saga iniciada por Shinji Mikami, para venderlo a precio de oro.

Porque si bien Capcom no ha anunciado su precio todavía, ¿hay alguien que realmente cree que se venderá por menos de 19,99 euros? Ahora bien, en la parte positiva (siempre podemos esperar a una rebaja, claro) está el hecho de que ahora los que no tuvieron ni Game Cube ni Wii podrán disfrutar de uno de los mejores ‘Resident Evil’. Y si esto sirve para que Capcom acabe haciendo lo propio con ‘Resident Evil Zero’ y ya en el futuro animarse con un remake de ‘Resident Evil 2′, bienvenido sea.
