Well, I have now got it downloaded, and have been playing it for quite a while now. I am known as Nessmaster on it. You can register a username when you first start the game and create a character profile on it. Naturally, I chose a ‘Ness’ design, him being my favourite Mother character. Because it is in Alpha stage, I did have a few issues with it like crashing or slowness, but it is Alpha afterall. Another issue seems to be the massive lag, resulting in character movements being rather jerky. Overall it is quite decent, and the way you defeat enemies is nice and simple. So far I have only seen 1 other user online on it and he walked right past me. Here is a couple of screenshots:

As you can see from the above screenshot, it is a simple little game over the desktop (can be fullscreen too I think).

For the very first time in the game, here is where you start off in. In a cave of some sorts. You go out where the ‘light shines’ to outside in the Saturn Valley.

Perhaps a bug of some sorts? This box randomly opened and displayed garbage and nothing would get rid of it.

Overall it’s a very good game and I am pleased with it.

Well I was totally bored, and came across a online based multiplayer Earthbound game. It’s download is approximately 50-60mb in size, you install it on your computer. Please note that it’s still in a Alpha stage.  I am currently downloading it to try it out and see what I think of it. It looks to be a nice little game. Here is the website to the game. CLICK HERE

Well, other news… I moved the computer tower under the stereo unit where it is neater. It looks way better there than sitting on my desk and I don’t hear the fan or HDD noises so much with the computer being there. I haven’t moved on with the plans for the ITX board as of yet, however I definitely decided to use Linux on the board. When I get the money and the time I will make a nice plastic enclosure for it, then buy a KVM etc and install Linux onto it.

After the province went to Conchobar and after the expulsion of Fergus, the latter came to Eochaid Feidlech at Tara, so that their old enmities and their new enmities might be joined together after Fachtna Fáthach had fallen in the Battle of Leitir Ruad in the Corann. So Eochaid went to welcome Fergus and said to him: “Great welcome from me to you, Fergus. You will be my guest at Tara and my daughter Clothra will be your wife.” It’s then Clothra was given to Fergus.

Fergus went to the border of Ulster with seven hundred warriors, and this is the way they came: from the Chariot Track of Ugaine Mór, which is called Achall, to Tulach na Mac Ríg; along Slige na Sochaide from Tara, by Síd Elcmair, to the Palace of the Mac Óc, to Dubros, which is called Ros na Ríg (there were three kings over Ireland, Mac Cuill, Mac Cecht and Mac Gréine, who ruled by turns over the Tuatha Dé Danann, and it’s there they came to meet each other and seek the kingship from each other. From that it is called Ros na Ríg, the wood of the kings); by the Mountain of Breg mac Breógain, to Muirthemne Plain, to Dún Delgan (it was Delga son of of Dub son of Derg son of Muinnmarg of the Fir Bolg who built the fort), to Iarrlogair, to the wood of Conall Collamrach son of Eterscél of Tara (it’s there he was born and brought up; it’s current name is Fid Mór), to Dubloch, to Sliab Cuilinn (Cuilinn, the son of the king of the Islands of Britain, was killed there by Congall Clairingnech), to Benn Boirche.

It’s there was Lugaid Lámechtach, son of Lóch, son of Conchobar the Bald, and Eochaid the Great, son of Eochaid Yellow-Heel, and there was a big party there. And Fergus shut up the hostel with his army, and they gave great cries there. Lugaid and Eógan leapt nimbly into the middle of the royal hostel (or the warriors’ hostel), [...] five hundred warriors, and they defended the hostel in this way, and it was trouble for Fergus to hold the hostel against them and set fire to it. They went around the hostel and put the fire out, and they killed a hundred men and a hundred of theirs were killed. Eógan stayed outside on the lawn and they fought against Eochaid Fer Tlachta mac Rossa, Fergus’s blood brother, until Eógan was killed there. The hostel is taken and Lugaid and the sons of Lóch are killed. They ravaged Benn Boirche, and Mag Seimne, and Mag Lathairne, and Lochmag, and Dubtherann, and Ardachad na Ríg, and Dún na gCliar, and Garbros Iúbair Aninne, which is called Iubar Chinn Cháith, and Dún Róith, and Tulach na n-Arm, and Dún an Bhanchuire, and Cnoc Mór. It’s there Ness was. “She who betrays us,” they said, “let her be killed by us.” Fergus said, “A company of women or a murder of women should not be the beginning of our depradations or our combats.” They gathered together their booty and their tribute and went in triumph over the Trácht Chroisinid (which is called the Beach of Baile mac Búan), with the sea on their left and the land on their right. And Sualtam Sídach and the men of Muirthemne Plain stood in their way and he puts them to flight with great vengeance on all sides, and Fergus brought back his arms and his spoils to Tara. The men of Tara came out with great joy and jubilation and the booty was given to Eochaid as a dowry for his daughter.

Regarding Conchobar, he was a guest in the dwelling of Rath Derg with Eochaid son of Conaing the Yellow when this news reached him. It weighed heavy on him, and the women of Ulster were sad and sorrowful, crying for Eochaid son of Eochaid. The Ulstermen asked Conchobar what vengeance he would take. “It is fitting, “ said Conchobar, “to ravage Mide and to destroy Uisnech and to immediately burn Cnogba and to sack Tara.” It’s then the Ulstermen advanced from the north across Inber Glaise to Liatruim. Then the men of Mogdorn, the sons of Durthacht and Conall Garb and Imchad and Eochaid and Eógan and Dáire Derg left there for Sliab Sulchach in Mide. Dún Connrach, Árd Samnuide, Cnoch Lugach (which is called Tailtiu), the Sickbed of Nuada (which is called Uisnech – it’s there that Nuada Silverhand was healed by Dian Cecht), the racecourse of Ugaine’s sons (which is called southern Tethba) were pillaged by them, Gáiluige Mór, Imlech Glaise Berromain (which is called Eithne, or Dubcairbre Mór Mide), the Collamain of the Boyne, the old Luaigne of Tara, amd Mál Muchna as far as the Ulstermen’s camp below Loch nDobarchon (which today is called Loch Saiglinn) were pillaged by them. They left huge flaming red mounds all over the country, and they went in triumph after that.

After that Eochaid assembled his army to invade Ulster: Fergus mac Róich, and Eochaid Airem, and Mar son of Rogen, and Lugaid Láich-Nuad, son of Crimthann, son of the king of Leinster, and Duagus Finn son of Eochaid Airem, and Coscrach the king of Ireland’s deputy, and Mál the Soldier. Eochaid, the High King of Ireland, addressed them, and this is what he said: “It’s great loss and ruin that Conchobar has inflicted on us: the ruin of Mide, the invasion of Uisnech, the despoiling of Cnogba, the mighty burning of Tara, the fierce invasion of Breg. It’s a great reproach to you, Fergus that a king of the province of Giallchad should be in Emain Macha.” And he spoke this poem there:

Arise, warriors all,
Kings as well as great lords.
Defend Tara mightily
Against the bright-armed sons of Ugaine.

It’s a great story for Mide
To be invaded by strangers.
It pierces my heart mightily:
Emain in the hands of the children of Rudraige.

Let your resolution be firm:
Ravage Ulster south and north.
Defend Tara – Mighty your valour–
Wealthy lords of Tara, arise!

It’s then the army moved along the estuary of the Boyne and westwards across the Dubglaise, and past Carn Cáemgin Conganchnes (which is called Carn Echach Leithdeirg), and past Málinn Muchna, and past Bogmann, to Sliab Toga and Sliab Duib, and to Cnoc mBréisc, and to Senmag, and Eochaid stopped at Rath Luaigne (which is now called Rath Láegaire. It’s there that Luaigne son of Érimón was for eighteen years). From Rin Túaith to Glenn Rossa, and from Imlech Áendarda to Finnmóin an Cosnamaig, were burned and ravaged by them and they gathered their booty and they spoil and their hostages and prisoners, including: Fiachra son of Sobairce, and Eochaid son of Fiacha son of Fedlimid, and many others who fell by them, and the Ulstermen followed them to Glenn Mar, and that day Mál son of Róech and Celtchar son of Uthechar met each other, until Mál fell there. And because of that the valley is called Glenn Mar. Hearing of the death of his brother, Eochaid started to cry right then. He groaned and sighed, and then he went to Cnocán an Áir, and they buried the Ulster prisoners under the earth there: Fiacha and Eochaid and Fiacha son of Fedlimid. The Ulstermen with Celtchar son of Uthechar and Conchobar followed them and killed three hundred of the followers of Fergus and the High King of Ireland. They made a frenzied martial struggle together, and Eochaid was wounded and left on his own, lying in his own blood. He was carried back on the shafts of spears. The Ulstermen returned with much booty taken from Fergus and the followers of the king of Ireland, and the king of Ireland was taken to Tara, and he was a long time being healed there.

Fergus went back to the province with a great multitude, burning and killing before them to Sliab Fúait, and from there to Muirthemne. There was friendly kinship between Fergus and Súaltam, because it was Róech daughter of Athach who was mother to both of them. For that reason they often visited each other. The Ulstermen went to Emain after that, and they were sad and sorrowful. Fergus went after them again and went to Dún Dá Bhenn, and killed twenty-seven men of the garrison of the fort. They burned Dún Sobairce and pillaged the southern half of the province, and went in triumph to Mide. It’s then Eochaid gathered the men of Ireland at Tara, and told them that they must go to Ulster to take hostages and prisoners, and he said: “The kingdom is incomplete without Ulster.”

It’s then Eochaid went back to Ulster with a great multitude of the men of Ireland, with Fergus’s great knowledge, and this is the way they took: to Comair na gCath, which is called Móin na Tromdháimhe; to Tulach na Fairgsiona; to Loch Thobar; to Ard na Scéith; to Lochán na Glaise; to Rathlin; to Lochán na Comrainne; so that Ulster and Mide could parlay together. It was heard by the that the men of Ireland were approaching, and they gathered their brave men and their nobles at Sliab Cuilinn, and they cut down the woods. The army arrived at Dubglaise na nDrúad that night and took position and made camp there. The Ulstermen said messengers should send be sent to the king of Ireland to make peace with him, to give land to Fergus and make peace with him. “So who should go there?” said Conchobar. “Cathbad and Mes Dedad and Amergin should go there,” said everyone.

The three poets went before them and they were told to seek compensation for Conchobar’s father, and to make peace with Fergus, to give him the eastern half of the province, and the position of heir apparent to the province, and the champion’s portion, his hereditary dues at Emain, and a bed with golden posts. The druids arrived with this proposition and were admitted into the king of Ireland’s tent. They were asked what news they brought, and they told it from start to finish. Eochaid said that he would give Conchobar compensation for his father: two three-thousands of Breg na Boinne, his own daughter as his wife, half of the House of Midchuairt, and fosterage of the High King. Fergus was given the conditions mentioned above, and from Tuath Inber to the Beach of Baile mac Búain came to him. That concludes the War of Fergus and Conchobar.

Notes and manuscript sources

• I have worked from the text as edited (and translated into French) by Margaret C. Dobs from MS 23. K. 37 in the Royal Irish Academy, which dates to 1717. Two very similar versions of the same text appear in MS E. IV. 3, also in the Royal Irish Academy, dating to 1727, and MS Egerton 106 in the British Museum, which dates to 1715. Dobs judges that all three were copied, and perhaps abridged, from a 15th century original. Translation © Patrick Brown 2008.

I noticed yesterday when I went through the upload of ‘the Moon’ Almanac, there was an error on the 15th page. It is only ‘minor’ but still major to me!!! The error was simply just that the word ‘caution’ was not underlined and it is on the print.

Please forgive my error and what I’ll do is keep the link on the previous post running until the end of the week and then replace it with the updated version in this post (I’m wondering whether to delete this post after when the amendments have been made. Though I might leave it just to keep a record of the error which I made.)

Here is the update.

Enjoy~

Galactic North

TYPE: Science Fiction

RATING:    6/10

REVIEW:

Alright, I am a big fan of SF but this one just didn’t live upto my expectations. Maybe this is actually a great book and I’m just a skeptic or perhaps I’ve read too many Asimov’s books to comprehend the “complexity” of the sci-fi space. In either case, other than hi-fi weaponry there wasn’t much to absorb in this set of novellas.

The only brilliant thing for me in this one was the phase of “Transenlightenment”. However that also seemed like something that Asimov had mentioned in his Foundation universe.

Read it if you are a fan. I’m not too keen for a re-read.

DESCRIPTION:

Centuries from now, humanity, as factional and fractious as ever, has spread throughout the solar system and beyond, to the worlds around the nearest stars. Technology means powerful new tools, but with those advances come lethal risks. The Demarchists and the Conjoiners fight wars over the basic right to augment human intelligence beyond its natural limits. The nervous, paranoid Ultras crew the vast lighthugger starships that bind these squabbling colonies together. The hyperpigs try to keep their heads down. The rich get richer … and everyone tries not to think about the worrying number of extinct alien civilizations that the explorers keep finding out beyond the margins of settled space … because who’s to say that humanity won’t be next?

Galactic North, a collection of eight novellas and short stories, three brand-new for this volume: eight harrowing glimpses into the dark and turbulnt universe of Revelation Space.

720. Din care 240 nu eram constienti. Din care alte poate 3 am vorbit. Din care 10 am visat. Din care  alte 240 n-am stiut nimic. 720 in care ne-am gandit si-n care n-am vrut sa gandim. In care am plans si am ras, deopotriva.

Am certitudinea ca azi o sa caute cineva pe aici. Altcineva inafara de tine.

Dupa 2 anotipuri am regasit-o. Nu cu adevarat. Am vazut-o pe ea, prin ea poate. Se regaseste doar ea singura daca o indesi intr-o sticla de o transparenta rosiatica. Era tot acolo unde am lasat-o. Afara ploua ca si ultima oara. Ea topaia mai fericita ca niciodata si dansa. Citise printr-o carte despre exuberanta asta pe care doar cafelele i-o descopera.

Prin parul incalcit, ca intotdeauna, ca acum avea o caciulita alba. Radea de noi. De toti, de ea. Erau 720. O aniversare, morbida ce-i drept.In sine totusi o aniversare. Trebuia sa fie vesela. Daca era aici una din prietenele sale acolo ar fi certat-o . Ca nu e legata la un siret, ca rade cu toata gura, ca e imprastiata. S-ar fi mirat ca inca are la mana siretul cel roz. La mana si la un papuc.

Noi , restul o vedeam…fluida. Cum am mai descris-o.  S-a aruncat dezinvolta la un moment dat in fata unei masini. Fara sa isi dea seama l, asa a si scapat. Cand i-a zis s-a apucat de ras. Trecea pe strazi bucurandu-se de absolut fiecare bucata de nor din ala intunecat, de fiecare gard mazgalit. Ne intrebam cum reuseste ea sa zambeasca la toate astea.

Are ea pe cineva care ghiceste mereu cand zambeste fals. Era al 720-lea zambet… Primul adevarat. Noi paream asa batrani. Si ea era copil. Noi , restul nu mai stiam nimic de ea, demult.

Radea. Si nu prea stiam daca de fapt ea este aici. Era mica. Atat de mica incat mi-a fost mila sa o iau de umeri si sa o intreb cum si cand a revenit. Dupa o vreme incepi sa devii strain de cineva atat de apropiat. Practic de tine. Imi era frica sa nu o supar cu prea multe intrebari. Sa ii aduc aminte… sa plece.

Am luat-o cu mine si mi-am vazut de drum. Avand grija sa nu o pierd, sa nu ne pierdem cu totii, caci mi-a dat impresia ca toate lunile astea fara ea nu ne-au placut la nici unul. Era … era ceva. Ce nu avea cum sa regaseasca cei care au fost si ei plecati la vremea lor.

De la atata fum ma asteptam sa o pierd. Insa era tot acolo. La fel cum a venit asa a plecat, ramanand. Asa cum a facut intotdeauna. De data asta s-a lasat mai mult asteptata. Strigata de mai multe ori, ca fiecare copil, a venit dupa 720.

Pues bien, este monstruo se puede ver a través de Google Maps y Google Earth. En el Lago Ness se ve una zona más clara con la forma de dicha criatura.
