So that is it for what we know for sure at this point. Hasbro last month showed us a new Franklin Richards figure that likely will be part of a two-pack with his sister Valeria Richards.

The father and sons of the family joined the guests for a coffee and smoke, and according to custom, brought gifts of nuts, sweetmeats and cakes for the women of the harem. The guests were offered cups of Turkish coffee and the massaljhe was smoking pipes of "scented weed". After the meal they were attended by "a very pretty old massaljhe, a type of storyteller who attended ladies' social functions to provide amusement and entertainment for the guests. According to Ottoman customs, sweets were served before salty foods, and stews were served before custards. Nineteen dishes were served for the iftar-meats, birds and fish, custards and pastries, and for the last course, a pyramid-shaped heap of pilaf. Of this practice, Pardoe says it is "rendered less revolting than it would otherwise be, by the fact that each individual is careful". Pardoe reports the meal was served by slaves "black, white, and gray", as the guests took seats on cushions around the platter with cloth napkins, they were served fish with rice, eaten from a common pot. The outer range of the tray was covered with fragments of unleavened bread, torn asunder and portions of the Ramazan cake, a dry, close, sickly kind of paste, glazed with the whites of eggs, and strewed over with aniseeds." In the centre of the tray was placed a capacious white basin, filled with a kind of cold bread soup and around it were ranged a circle of small porcelain saucers, filled with sliced cheese, anchovies, caviare, and sweetmeats of every description: among these were scattered spoons of box-wood, and goblets of pink and white sherbet, whose rose-scented contents perfumed the apartment. The room was a perfect square, totally unfurnished, save that in the centre of the floor was spread a carpet, on which stood a wooden frame, about two feet in height, supporting an immense round plated tray, with the edge slightly raised. Julia Pardoe writing in 1836 of her travels in Stamboul records a Turkish iftar she attended: Some Hadith also state that Muhammad used to read the following dua at iftar: ĭhahaba al-zama’ wa abtalat al-‘urooq wa thabat al-ajr Insha’Allah - "Thirst has gone, the veins are moist, and the reward is assured, if Allah wills." Muslims believe that feeding someone iftar as a form of charity is very rewarding and that such was practised by Muhammad. Traditionally three dates are eaten to break the fast, in emulation of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad, who broke his fast in this manner, but this is not mandatory. The meal is taken just after the call to the Maghrib prayer, which is around sunset.

Moving at speed and causing destruction at first, the energy is sapped in an instant for Grey Aura to rise on top of the beast and deliver a passionate but disconsolate speech. Which brings Sierlijke Schaduwmond’s mammoth lumbering out of the shadows. Although the desperation in the vocals as it begins to slow down is another exceptional layer. Incredible listening.ĭe Onnoemelijke Verleidelijkheid Van De Bezwijkende Deugd isn’t changing the formula even if it is a much more focused slab of heavy intensity. El Greco In Toledo, with its Hispanic touches layered around thick black metal and Parijs Is Een Portaal, with its grand and epic build leading to minutes of wacky, progressive and jazz-club style melodies. It’s hard not to be wowed by just how they’re able to pull this level of uncomfortable harshness off. Het Schuimspoor Van De Ramp then sees Grey Aura continue to push the boundaries of atmospheric black metal to startling levels. A track that showcases playful and sinister melodies in equal measures in the latter portion of it. That continues into a raw eruption of black metal that makes up the majority of Rookslierten, Flessen. It’s constantly surprising and always challenging. On this track alone, they chop and change elements where your predetermined mind is trying to take them. ![]() You can tell that Grey Aura know exactly what they’re doing and are looking to challenge your expectations of atmospheric black metal. The opening track, Maria Segovia is chaotic but in a very measured way.

You can design your own burger, but signatures like these are hard to beat.

Usually it only took a few minits to open the dore which suprisingly were not alarmed even though the break glasses were. If it did not open the lock would leave an “impression” on the pencil lead which would tell you where you needed to fill a bit more off. So you would cut a rough master then go back to the building put pencil lead on the edges and try it in the lock. Thus with a five leaver lock there was not a lot to remember to cut your own from a blank key and a needle file set. ![]() Also as the door keys had to work from both sides the key was symmetrical. ![]() Some pirates just smashed the glass and stole the key, which was silly because many of the break glasses got wired into the building fire alarm system.Īs I’ve mentioned before, complicated though keys look, they are cut on a grid system which it was easy to find out the basic measurment like an 1/8th of an inch. Often there was a “break glass” key holder next to the door with a key in helpfully labled “FB1 through FB3” the same with paddlocks on emergancy gates.

And why should it be? It’s 2020 and we’re no longer deluded enough to believe that ‘angst’ is a phase reserved for frustrated teenagers. ![]() Like the 90s, it pits impossibly cheery melodies against lyrics that are nothing short of tragic or, of course, angst-ridden.īut this isn’t your garden variety existential, adolescent angst. Though it is never overtly implied, the throwback hangs heavy in lyrics like carelessly you pass the hours, humming songs you used to sing when you were young as well as in familiar themes of anxiety and frustration. It is a vial of nostalgia that hasn’t aged a day since 1994 – which is impressive because it was released in 2015. The strength of Peripheral Vision lies in the indisputable fact that it is perfect. My dawdling has meant that I’m way too late to the release party but I’ve made up for that lapse by listening to it incessantly since then. At this point, the shoegaze universe had moved way past ‘giving a sign’ and gone straight to ‘we’re going to have to hit her with the signboard.’ (it’s super effective, btw)Ĭoincidentally, yet unsurprisingly, all three songs are off Turnover’s iconic album Peripheral Vision. Yet my idiot future/present (and now also past) self needed to be struck by ‘Dizzy on the Comedown’ before making any sort of move towards further exploration. It turns out that not only had my past self already made a note of ‘Diazepam’, she had also had the good sense to add ‘Humming’ to the list. I turn to my trusty parchment, yellowed with age and crumbling to dust, and raise my quill – but wait! what’s this? Staring back at my myopic eyes is the name Turnover, already inscribed not once but TWICE! I dont think either of us enjoys meeting new people. I appreciate this, let’s be friends, but please stay where you are. ![]() If you think I am lying to myself, you are correct, and have been paying attention. One eternity later, still listening to DKFM, I find myself captivated by a dreamy little song that I learn is called ‘Dizzy on the Comedown.’ I see that it is by a band called Turnover that I have obviously never heard of before, because if I had I would surely, definitely, 100% have looked into them immediately. One of the tracks written on this loved-but-not-consulted scrap of paper is ‘Diazepam’ by Turnover – a song I heard more than once on DKFM, duly noted/confirmed on my list each time and did not research any further for reasons I can only ascribe to the non-existence of free will (just roll with it, Sartre). spilled cups of milky tea, inkstains, and general wear and tear from natural forces of erosion.

Because of the huge amount of imported European appliances fitted with E/ F plugs, the Danish government decided to make it legal to install type E or F sockets too.

USB Type-C is the newly introduced and powerful interconnect standard for USB. A type C plug fits perfectly into a type K socket.

The exciting first novel in her trickster trilogy.Įveryone knows a guy like Jared: the burnout kid in high school who sells weed cookies and has a scary mom who’s often wasted and wielding some kind of weapon. Everyday teen existence meets indigenous beliefs, crazy family dynamics, and cannibalistic river otters. Shortlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize: With striking originality and precision, Eden Robinson, the author of the classic Monkey Beach and winner of the Writers’ Trust of Canada Fellowship, blends humour with heartbreak in this compelling coming-of-age novel.

In an effort to keep all forms of magic at bay, Jared, 17, has quit drugs and drinking.

When he wakes up naked, dangerously dehydrated and confused in the basement of his mom’s old house in Kitimat, some of the people he loves–the ones who don’t see the magic he attracts–just think he fell off the wagon after a tough year of sobriety.
