by

British Prime Minister Theresa May said

on Thursday she would tell us president

Donald Trump that intelligence chaired

between their two countries had to

remain secure after leaks to US media

about the Manchester attack British

police stopped sharing information about

the suicide bombing with the United

States a British counterterrorism source

told Reuters earlier after police chief

said the leaks to media risk injuring

their investigation police are holding

eight people in custody in connection

with the attack which killed 22 people

and Manchester's Chief Constable Ian

Hopkins said the arrests were

significant I want to reassure people

that the arrests that we have made our

significant and initial searches of

premises have revealed items that we

believe are very important to the

investigation he told reporters police

are hunting for a possible bomb maker

after the 22 year old attacker

british-born Salman Abedi detonated a

sophisticated device at a concert venue

packed with children on Monday night

killing 22 people May said she would

talk to Trump at a NATO summit later on

Thursday about the leaks which included

the publication of photographs of the

bomb site by the New York Times I will

make clear to President Trump that

intelligence that is shared between our

law enforcement agencies must remain

secure she said in a televised statement

the decision to stop sharing police

information with US agencies was an

extraordinary step as Britain sees the

United States as its closest ally on

security and intelligence this is until

such time as we have assurances that no

further unauthorized disclosures will

occur sent the counterterrorism source

who spoke on condition of anonymity many

European cities including Paris Berlin

and Brussels have suffered attacks in

the last two years underlining the

importance of confidential intelligence

cooperation Trump was widely criticized

this month after it emerged he had

discussed sensitive syria-related

intelligence originating from an ally

with Russian officials at a White House

meeting May said at the time Britain

would continue to share intelligence

with Washington the official threat

level in Britain was raised after the

Manchester attacked to critical its

highest level meaning a further attack

could be imminent troops have been

deployed to free up police officers for

patrols and investigations England's

National Health Service said a total of

116 had been injured in the attack with

75 admitted to the hospital 23 remained

under close care soldiers and bomb

disposal experts rushed to a street in

the south of the city after a call to

police but it turned out to be a false

alarm a reported suspicious package in

Manchester that British Army bomb

disposal experts investigated has been

deemed safe police said on Thursday

adding that a cordon had been removed

Queen Elizabeth visited the Royal

Manchester Children's Hospital where

some of the casualties have been treated

a minute's silence was observed in honor

of the victims and a square in central

Manchester and in other places in

Britain the bombing which took place at

the Manchester arena indoor venue just

after the end of a concert by US pop

singer ariana grande was the deadliest

in Britain since July 2005 when 52

people were killed in attacks on

London's transport network the

Manchester attack has caused a revulsion

across the world because it targeted

children and teenagers who make up the

bulk of Gran's fan base the victims

range from an eight-year-old schoolgirl

to parents who had come to pick up their

children a total of eight people are in

custody in connection with the attack

British media have reported that one of

them is a Betty's brother but police

have not confirmed that a Betty's father

and younger brother were arrested in

Tripoli in Libya where the family

originally come from Manchester's police

chief said on Wednesday that a betty was

part of a network and media have

reported that authorities suspect he

received help constructing the bomb and

planning the attack police chiefs have

made clear they are furious about the

publication of confidential material in

u.s. media including bomb sight

photographs in the New York Times saying

such leaks undermined relationships with

trusted security allies

this damage is even greater when it

involves unauthorized disclosure of

potential evidence in the middle of a

major counterterrorism investigation a

National Counterterrorism policing

spokesman said in a statement

Britain routinely shares intelligence

with the United States bilaterally and

also as part of the five eyes Network

which also includes Australia Canada and

New Zealand crime-scene pictures the

pictures published by the New York Times

included remains of the bomb and of the

rucksack carried by the suicide bomber

and showed bloodstains amid the wreckage

I think it's pretty disgusting said

Scott Lightfoot a Manchester resident

speaking outside a train station in the

city

he criticized media for publishing such

material who's leaking it where is it

coming from this is British intelligence

at the end of the day people shouldn't

be finding out about this the Financial

Times reported that such images are

available across a restricted access

encrypted special international database

used by government ordnance and

explosives experts in about 20 countries

allied with Britain

it said the database was built around a

long-standing u.s. British system the

BBC said Manchester Police hoped to

resume normal intelligence relationships

soon but were furious about the leaks

u.s. channel ABC News reported that

police had found a kind of bomb-making

workshop in a Betty's home and he had

apparently stockpiled enough chemicals

to make additional bombs British news

website the independent also reported

bomb-making materials that could be

primed for imminent attacks had been

found in the raids after the Manchester

bombing the report said one suspect

device was blown up in a controlled

explosion

ROUND HOUSE, WHERE LEGISLATORS

DON'T HAVE A DEAL.

REPORTER: NOTHING HAS BEEN

APPROVED YET, BUT THEY'RE

TALKING ABOUT TAXES THAT WILL

HIT YOUR WALLET TO BALANCE THE

BUDGET.

WHILE IT SEEMS LIKE LAWMAKERS

ARE MAKING PROGRESS, BUT IT'S

IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER, THE

GOVERNOR COULD EASILY START US

BACK AT SQUARE ONE WITH JUST THE

STROKE OF HER PEN.

AND WHEN THE GOVERNOR GOT

ELECTED, WE ARE NOW SEEING THE

CONSEQUENCES OF THOSE ACTIONS.

REPORTER: THE DAY STARTS WITH

ANGER AND MOTIVATION.

>> I VERY MUCH HOPE THAT WE

OVERRIDE THE GOVERNOR'S VETO.

>> I'M ASKING THE BODY, NOT JUST

UNANIMOUSLY TO OVERRIDE THE

GOVERNOR'S VETOES.

>> BY A VOTE OF 39 IN THE

AFFIRMATIVE, 29 IN THE NEGATIVE

THE MOTION HAS FAILED.

>> I AM DISAPPOINTED.

IN BOTH CHAMBERS TO OVERRIDE THE

GOVERNOR'S VETOES OF HIGHER

ONE OF THE PROPOSALS FOR SOLVING

THIS BUDGET CRISIS IS A FOOD TAX

China Airforce moving towards fixing it's issue.. but it will take time... - Duration: 4:26.

Welcome to WARN, China Airforce moving towards fixing it's

issue.. but it will take time...

Will the Sukhoi Su-35 Flanker-E be the last jet fighter that China imports? The Chinese

government�s official media certainly seems to believe so. �With the commissioning of

the J-20, the Su-35 will soon lose its value in the Chinese market,� the People�s Daily

states.

It is certainly possible that the advanced Russian-made jet will be the last fighter

aircraft that Beijing imports, however, China will likely be dependent on Russia for subsystems

such as engines for some time to come. Beijing has made tremendous progress with developing

its own combat aircraft and the avionics needed to equip those machines, but China continues

to be hampered by its inability to develop and produce reliable jet engines.

Indeed, China has demonstrated progress with developing not only stealthy new airframes

such as the J-20 and the FC-31, but also seemingly with the active electronically scanned array

(AESA) radars, electro-optical/infrared sensors and electronic warfare systems, data-links

and even the cockpit displays that are typical of fifth-generation fighters.

At the Zhuhai airshow last November, the Shenyang Aircraft Corporation exhibited a video of

the FC-31 showing off capabilities such as a distributed aperture system (DAS) and an

electro-optical targeting system (EOTS) similar to those mounted on the Lockheed Martin F-35

Joint Strike Fighter. The aircraft is also reputed to feature a KLJ-7A AESA radar that

is being developed by the Nanjing Research Institute of Electronics Technology.

However, it remains to be seen if China has come close to mastering �sensor fusion��which

is to tie all of those myriad sensor and data feeds into a single coherent picture. That�s

a capability found onboard the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor and F-35, but it has taken years

of effort and billions of dollars to master (and in the case of the F-35, it�s still

a work in progress). Beijing will eventually get there in time, but it�s hard to say

how long that will take.

Engines, however, continue to remain a weak spot for Chinese industry. But jet engines

are inherently difficult to develop and produce. Indeed, only a handful of advanced industrial

nations have the technological capacity to independently develop and build their own

working and producible jet engines�the United States, Russia, France, Great Britain, Germany

and Japan. Almost every other power is dependent on others to develop propulsion technology.

China is determined to close that gap, but it has not yet succeeded in doing so. Last

year, Beijing setup the Aero Engine Corp. of China (AECC) as part of its efforts to

solve the problem. The firm has $7.5 billion in capital and 96,000 employees. According

to a CNN report, Beijing's most recent five-year development plan states that developing and

producing indigenous engines is one of China�s most important goals.

China has the money and the willpower to develop its own aerospace engine industry. It�s

just a matter of time before Beijing masters jet engine technology and starts developing

and mass-producing its own propulsion systems. When that day comes, China will be independent

of Russian engine technology and might indeed become a major aerospace industrial power

in its own right.

The White House Will Never Be the Same, after Trump Just Turned This to GOLD! - Duration: 2:47.

The White House Will Never Be the Same, after Trump Just Turned This to GOLD!

They dont take the same elevator.  Ever.  When the President takes the elevator to go upstairs at the White House, VP Pence takes the stairs. Just like they never fly on the same plane.  All for the sake of the country.

TIME  went into the White House to see how President Trump has made it his own.  Of course, just like President Trump, hes made it very uniquely his own.

 Right down to the HUGE flat screen TV over the fireplace.  And the grand crystal chandelier he purchased with his own money.  And, whats so very Trump….

GOLD EVERYWHERE! 

He took down Obamas red curtains in the Oval Office, and replaced them with his signature GOLD!. Gold frames highlight classic oil paintings, replacing most of Obamas preferred modern art.

Obama didnt want a lot of people around when he worked.  Not much of a people person, from the way he acted while he was President.

Not so, Trump!  Trump likes to operate in a crowd.  Hes a people person in every sense of the word.  Its how hes been able to make his deals, negotiate, LEAD!.

Also unlike Obama, who rarely allowed anyone into the private quarters of the White House, President Trump is so much more open.  He invites his staff up for meetings, and has old friends over for dinner.

While his wife and youngest child havent yet moved in, President Trump has kept very busy doing what he does best:  WORKING!.

While the media tries very very hard to tear him down, President Trump has been busy, working hard for our country!  I love that about him!  If you do, too, please SHARE this out to the world, until he sees it himself!.

Everyone on Earth knows how powerful and beneficial apple cider vinegar is.

This amazing liquid is rightly considered as one of the healthiest things to consume

as it is rich in essential nutrients that will improve your overall health.

Top 10 reasons to start drinking ACV today.

Weight loss

According to recent studies, obesity causes lack of sleep, so the heavier a person is,

the more likely it is that he is having sleeping problems.

ACV prevent fat accumulation in the tissues and blood vessels and will reduce your appetite,

effectively helping you lose weight.

It contains a fiber known as pectin that will make your brain more satisfied, which is great

for people who feel constantly hungry.

So, the next time you are craving food, drink a cup of ACV mixed with water instead of cookies.

Hiccups will be gone

Thanks to its bitter taste, ACV will stimulate nerves in your throat that cause hiccups and

resolve the problem effectively.

  Treats sore throat

ACV is a powerful antibacterial agent which will eliminate all bacteria in your body,

including the ones responsible for sore throat.

Just swallow a teaspoon of ACV an hour before going to bed, then swallow another in 30 minutes

and finish the process with another teaspoon of ACV right before going to bed.

Repeat the process until you notice improvements.

Relieves stuffy nose

If you are suffering from allergies, ACV will help you a lot.

It contains a host of vitamins and minerals which will thin out the mucus and clear your

sinuses, effectively making you breathe easier.

Treats acid reflux

ACV will alkalize your stomach and resolve the problem of acid reflux.

Just drink a mixture of a tablespoon of ACV and one glass of water and the problem will

be resolved.

Treats nocturnal leg cramps

Nocturnal leg cramps are most often a problem of potassium deficiency which can be resolved

by drinking ACV regularly.

ACV contains big amounts of potassium which will restore the balance in your system and

treat the problem effectively.

Reduces your blood sugar levels

High blood sugar levels can cause diabetes and insomnia, which is why its vital to regulate

your blood sugar levels.

Take 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar every night before going to bed to normalize

your glucose levels, but consult your doctor before starting the treatment if you are diabetic.

Bad breath

Bad breath is a condition which affects millions of people, and is most often caused by bacterial

overgrowth.

Luckily, it can be easily resolved by rinsing your mouth with a teaspoon of ACV before going

to bed.

Reduces stomach ache

Sleeping with an upset stomach is almost impossible, so the next time you are facing one such problem,

you should drink a mixture of a cup of warm water and a teaspoon of organic ACV which

will ease the discomfort.

Prevents indigestion

Indigestion is related to insomnia, but ACV can resolve the digestive problem and effectively

prevent insomnia.

Just mix a teaspoon of ACV with a teaspoon of honey in a glass of warm water and drink

the solution to get some much needed relief.

The Land Will Outlive Us All - Duration: 57:11.

(dramatic music)

SUSAN WERNER: Whew, baby!

(instrumental country music)

(laughs)

SUSAN: Farming is hot.

Ag is hot.

Food is hot.

Where does food come from?

Who's growing it?

What are those people like?

It just seemed like very, you'll pardon the expression,

fertile territory for writing and song writing

and an expression of affection and humor.

(guitar music)

* Didn't know how to tell you, darling

* I didn't know how to find the words

* But it's been about a hundred years now

* Since I've woken up and heard the birds

* I've had enough of the concrete jungle

* Had enough of the glass and steel *

SUSAN: You smell like cows, you guys.

SUSAN: I wanted to express some of that feeling in a song,

and the basic message of it is,

we are going to live and then pass away,

but the soil is here.

The landscape is here.

Let's honor that because we're not the last ones

to live on this planet.

We're not the last ones who're gonna live on this planet.

(audience applauds)

(guitar music)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: Are we ready?

BAND MEMBER: Yeah.

(audience applauds)

"The Land Will Outlive Us All" is funded in part by:

The Nebraska Arts Council

and the Nebraska Cultural Endowment

(audience applauds)

(guitar music)

* I didn't know how to tell you, darling

* Didn't know how to find the words

* But it's been about a hundred years now

* Since I've woken up and heard the birds

* I've had enough of the concrete jungle

* Had enough of the glass and steel

* I need a little bit of weeds and thistles

* I need a little bit of something real

* Bye-bye skyline

* Disappearing in the rear view mirror

* Hello sunshine

* And the air is getting clearer

* Love you honey

* But I hope you understand

(guitar music)

* I just gotta get back

* To the land.

(guitar music)

* I grew up on the open prairie

* Sky above, soil underneath

* Alfalfa between my toes

* A blade of oat straw between my teeth

* Yes, I've always been a little bit backwards

* And I do just the best I can

* But I was raised in a barn, my darling

* I was born with a farmer's tan

* Bye-bye skyline

* Disappearing in the rear view mirror

* Hello sunshine

* And the air is getting clearer

* I love you honey, but I hope you understand

* I just gotta get back

* To the land

* And hell if I

* Know what it means

* Might not mean

* A hill of beans

* But I do know what beans mean

* They mean about 12 bucks a bushel

* Corn will bring you six

* I gotta go get my fix, honey

* Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye

(harmonica music)

* Bye-bye skyline

* Leave the city and the clouds behind me

* Hello sunshine

* I'm going where the sun can find me

* Love you honey

* And I know you know me well

* And this time round

* I might be gone a spell

* And if I never return

* Well, sweetheart it's been swell

* But I gotta get back

* I gotta get

* Back

* I gotta get back

* To the land, yeah.

* Oh get back

* Oh get back

* Oh get back to where you once belonged

* On the land, people, yeah.

(harmonica and guitar music)

(audience applauds)

(guitar music)

SUSAN: Thank you, everybody.

The project is called Hayseed,

songs about farms, farmers,

and the people who love them.

This song is called

The Revenge of Kevin Oberbreckling.

(guitar music)

* All the city kids

* They had it better than us

* They got to go have fun

* The minute school was done

* They didn't ride the bus

* All the city kids

* They had brand new Schwinns

* Ours had rusty tires held together with pliers

* And some cotter pins

* All the city kids

* They never did no chores

* We were baling hay

* Milking twice a day

* They were making s'mores

* All the city kids

* All the city kids

* All the city kids

(guitar music)

* All the city kids

* They had their own TVs

* Had carpet on the stairs

* They had bean bag chairs

* They kept diaries

* All the city kids

* They had fluffy little dogs

* A dog that sits and begs

* A dog with all four legs

* Didn't smell like hogs

* All the city kids

* Had fancy clothes

* All the city kids

* Looked down their nose

* Back then

* But that was

* Way back when

* Now all the city kids

* They have become adults

* They wanna be someone

* They wanna get things done

* They wanna get results

* They want organic fruit

* They want organic meat

* Come to the city park

* It's called the farmer's market

* And it fills the street

* And our food is good

* But our price is steep

* It takes them by surprise

* I see them blink their eyes

* I see them nearly weep

* But we were just 4H

* We were the FFA

* High time they learn

* How the tables turn

* Now they're gonna pay

* All the city kids

* All the city kids

(laughs)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: Are you people in North Platte the city kids?

(audience laughs)

It's a town of 25,000.

Bet you're the city kids.

You know how we knew who the city kids were

in eastern Iowa where I grew up on a farm?

You know how we knew?

They had ski jackets.

(audience laughs)

And they had lift tickets

attached to the tags of their ski jackets,

and they paraded them around school,

and they lorded it over us.

But that was way back when.

(audience laughs)

Now farmers are cool

which is a great thing for those of us

with farming in our heritage and farming in our future.

(birds chirping)

SUSAN: I'm a song writer who grew up

on a farm in eastern Iowa,

and have been lucky enough to have

a career writing songs and performing for people

all over the United States for 25 years.

(gentle guitar music)

SUSAN: So there's that quote

from Paul Harvey, I think the radio announcer, right?

"And God made a farmer."

But God must have distracted momentarily

and so screwed up

and made another musician (laughs).

That's what happened to me.

I don't have it.

My sister has it,

but I don't have it, that impulse to stay

and to garden and to grow things.

I don't have it.

(gentle guitar music)

SUSAN: The good fortune I've had is that

even now my parents still own the farm,

and that permanence is

a real refuge for me, I have to say.

I mean, to go back and see the fields

where your father worked, your brothers worked,

and you yourself drove a baler.

Even though you might not have loved it at the time,

but to see that landscape

and to know the contours of that landscape

and to see that the contours of that landscape are intact

is a great comfort in a life full of change,

in a world full of change.

It's really wonderful to have something

that remains the same.

(piano music)

* Give me Chicago any day

* L.A. may be hot

* Ain't got what we got

SUSAN: But I'm a musician,

and with music, I can express affection and appreciation,

and that's the soul of this project, I think.

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: I had a conversation with Ann Chang,

the artistic director at the Lied Center,

and we had coffee, and we were talking,

and she said, "What are you up to these days?"

I said, well, I've begun to write songs

about the farm and what it means to me.

And she said, "Agriculture, hmm.

"That is something that Nebraskans know a lot about."

And this conversation developed

into a commission by the Lied Center,

along with a partnership

with the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources

here at University of Nebraska,

to create a series of songs

almost like paintings

about life for farmers,

and it became this project called Hayseed.

BILL STEPHAN: It was a perfect match for us to

be part of creating a brand new work of art

that celebrates agriculture, farms, farming,

and the people who love them.

* With your eyes to the West

BILL STEPHAN: It's really remarkable.

We've been able to not only celebrate

the heritage of Nebraska through Hayseed,

but also connect with people

that otherwise we normally don't have a connection with

because of so much of Nebraska is

all about agriculture,

and so now we have this wonderful,

interwoven relationship with Hayseed.

SUSAN: So the word Hayseed

is a derogatory term

people used to use for rural folks.

And I wanted to send up the notion

that rural folks used to be the square ones,

but now things have changed,

and Ag is hot, and there is some prosperity

and new opportunities in agriculture.

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: Trina Hamlin on the harmonica.

SUSAN: When you have side men like I had

or side women in this case,

you are smart to

put their wow power

in front of this audience.

SUSAN: You gonna do some dusting?

BAND MEMBER: No.

SUSAN: I had the good fortune to have

with me Trina Hamlin, harmonica player.

TRINA HAMLIN: Great sandwich.

SUSAN: Ty Zuckerman plays lap steel.

NATALIA ZUCKERMAN: What?

Deluxe.

TRINA: (grunts) We have a whole hour.

SUSAN: To have Trina do her thing with the harmonica

just, she's world class,

and the amazement, again,

communicates something to an audience even

if they don't really wanna hear the songs that I've written,

or they don't care for my particular style of things.

Everyone in the world can understand

what Trina Hamlin does when she plays harmonica.

There's no explanation necessary.

(harmonica and guitar music)

TRINA: The chemistry, thank God, we're all friends.

You know, we're all singer-songwriters.

We understand what each other does

because we do it ourselves.

(guitar music)

* And it's getting late

SUSAN: Jeff, could I have more of my voice in there?

Thanks, man.

TRINA: It's like playing in the sand box

with your best friends, you know?

You just it build it up and (grunts) tear it down,

and build it up again.

So, it's such a pleasure.

* 'Neath a big old

(piano music)

Ah.

* Raising a bumper crop

* Bumper crop

SUSAN: To have Natalia with her Brooklyn sensibility, right?

There are some kids sitting out there in the audience

watching Natalia, going, right,

"She's kind of wry and funny and hip in this.

"I'm kinda hip and wry and funny, yeah."

Like, "There's room for me in the world."

Yeah, I mean, to just bring somebody from Brooklyn

to Scottsbluff.

That's a gift in itself, right?

(lap steel guitar music)

NATALIA ZUCKERMAN: Those two are two of my best friends in the world.

So I get to play music with them, too.

It's an incredible blessing.

Really, every day,

and they're so stupidly talented

that I'm on my toes also.

(lap steel guitar music)

SUSAN: Jeff, give me even more on Natalia

over here, thanks.

NATALIA: I feel like I'm going to school every night

playing with Susan, for sure.

SUSAN: She's not in here at all.

NATALIA: And in a very loving way,

she pushes to go beyond your comfort zone.

(lap steel guitar music)

NATALIA: We kinda go on autopilot a lot,

so to really have to push myself musically

is such a gift for me as a player.

I really felt like I got to dig in a little bit.

(guitar music)

SUSAN: Do it, yeah.

(guitar music)

SUSAN: What do you think of that?

TRINA: Either way it's cool.

SUSAN: I know, but it feels like--

(audience applauds)

(gentle piano music)

* May I suggest

* May I suggest to you

* May I suggest that this is

* The best part of your life

* May I suggest

* This time is blessed for you

* This time

* Is blessed and shining

* Almost blinding bright

* Just turn your head

* And you'll begin to see

* The thousand reasons

* That were just beyond your sight

* The reasons why

* Why I'd suggest to you

* Why I'd suggest this is

* The best part of your

(piano music)

* There is a world

* That's been addressed to you

* Addressed to you

* Intended only for your eyes

* It's a secret world

* Like a treasure chest to you

* Of private scenes and brilliant dreams

* That mesmerize

* A tiny baby's hands

* The million stars

* That fill the turning sky

* At night

* And I suggest

* Yes, I suggest to you

* Yes, I suggest this is

* These endless days will run

(piano music)

(audience applauds)

BILL STEPHAN: Arts Across Nebraska, you know, is central

to the mission of the Lied Center.

Our mission is to educate, inspire,

and entertain the people of Nebraska

through the performing arts.

(guitar music)

* He wore a straw hat on his head

BILL: It's really bring arts and music

and theater and dance to people across the state

and to communities that otherwise wouldn't have

an opportunity to experience the arts.

(audience applauds)

(cheerful guitar music)

SUSAN: Feeling all the sweat, come on.

NATALIA: Yeah.

SUSAN: Nice.

SUSAN: I have heard this, yeah.

SUSAN: We enjoyed meeting people just on the

trip advisor quotient of the tour.

Where do you go tonight for margaritas?

"Oh, go down there."

What's the best diner?

"Oh, go there."

It's one of the best parts of the whole thing, honestly.

(vehicle noise)

SUSAN: The first tour we did, I honestly didn't know

anything about the state of Nebraska.

(birds chirping)

SUSAN: People are really nice here.

I mean, you may have a few mean people,

but honest, I kinda think if somebody mugs you in Lincoln,

they say, "Listen, I'm really sorry.

"I have to take your wallet,

and I'm sorry."

(gentle piano music)

(tambourine chimes)

(gentle piano music)

SUSAN: This is a song came about after

a previous tour of Arts Across Nebraska.

We played a show in couple different places.

One was McCook, Nebraska,

and Trina was on that tour with me,

and after the tour, we got some evaluations back

from kids and audience members all across Nebraska

that was really, really wonderful,

really wonderful experience to read all the comments.

But one comment broke my heart a little bit,

in fact, broke my heart a lot.

This little girl wrote.

I think she was like, you know,

second or third grade or something,

and she wrote in little girl cursive,

you know, just when you're learning cursive.

She wrote, "Thank you, Susan Werner,

"for coming to this waste of corn fields."

(audience laughs)

And so this is a song I wrote for that kid,

wherever that kid may be now.

(gentle guitar music)

* Listen to me, kid

* Listen to me good

* Let me make myself understood

* You say you're restless here

* Amidst the miles of corn

* In this great state

* Where you were born

* Well, don't do like I did

* And get a great big head

* And go taking this all

* For granted

* Listen to me, kid

* There's something to be said

* For blooming where you are

* Planted

(gentle guitar music)

* I recognize that look

* That little look in your eye

* Afraid the world's going

* To pass you by

* You dream of Paris and Rome

* Places you haven't seen yet

* Well, that's why God

* Made the Internet

* Oh, don't do like I did

* And get a great big head

* And go taking this all

* For granted

* Listen to me, kid

* There's something to be said

* For blooming where you are

* Planted

* There's something to be said

* For wide open space

* Where you can see the sun rise

* Feel the wind on your face

* There's something to be said

* For working out in the fields

* And certain satisfactions

* Only time reveals

* There's something to be said

* For keeping life long friends

* And for starry nights

* Out way beyond

* Where the highway ends

* But you don't want advice

* You're gonna do what you do

* You might leave

* Same as I did too

* You might have regrets

* Or you might have none

* Or like me

* You might have just this one

* Oh, don't do like I did

* And get a great big head

* And get all

* Cynically disenchanted

* Listen to me, kid

* There's something to be said

* For blooming where you are

* Where the people you knew are

* Where the fortunate few

* Are

* Planted

(gentle guitar music)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: Where we supposed to go for dinner?

(audience laughs)

AUDIENCE MEMBER: The Speakeasy.

SUSAN: The Speakeasy?

What happens at The Speakeasy in Holdrege, Nebraska?

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Good food.

SUSAN: Sounds like alcohol to me.

(audience laughs)

SUSAN: I'm good with that.

We had a great night at

Ollie's Big Game Steakhouse in Paxton, Nebraska.

A few of you have been there?

AUDIENCE: Oh, yeah.

SUSAN: Yeah, there's nothing quite like eating bison

with a big head of bison looking down on you.

There's nothing quite like that.

We stopped at Carhenge.

Have you all seen the wonder that is Carhenge?

AUDIENCE: Yes.

SUSAN: Yeah, it scrambles your phone, I'm telling you.

It scrambles your phone, you go in there, right?

It did that afterwards.

SUSAN: That's what it was. TRINA: It did.

SUSAN: That's what it was.

Musicians doing science.

Musicians doing science.

Here's another example.

Here's another example of musicians doing science.

Alright.

(guitar music)

SUSAN: So people ask me when they hear

that I'm from the state of Iowa,

they say, "Wow."

They say, "Iowa is really ahead of the curve

"on same-sex marriage."

And I say, yeah.

And they say, "You know, what accounts for that?"

And I have a theory, which I would like

to share with you now.

(guitar music)

* Skies of blue and fields of green

* Water full of Atrazine

* Hundred acres to explore

* Acres full of Alachlor

* Hey, hey, ho, ho

* Mom and Dad, how could they know

* Ho, ho, hey, hey

* Herbicides done made

* Me gay

* When I was a tiny tot

* 2,4-D and Paraquat

* Seeped beneath my prairie home

* Fractured my x-chromosome

* Hey, hey, my, my

* All these years

* I wondered why

* My, my, hey, hey

* Herbicides done made me gay

* And if your well is full

* Of glyphosate

* Then the chance is good

* The chance is great

* That you'll much prefer

* A same-sex mate

* It's true from Maine

* To California

* Listen people

* Let me

* Warn ya

* Think before you spray those weeds

* Think exactly where that leads

* Generations just like me

* Watching endless hours of Glee

* Hey, hey, dang, dang

* Singing along with the k.d. lang

* Dang, dang, hey, hey

* Herbicides done made me gay

(guitar music)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: I'd written all this material

about shared concerns, shared familiar characters,

shared language that the people

of Nebraska really could relate to.

FAN: Good job.

SUSAN: Thank you.

Thank you for coming.

FAN: Sure, nice meeting you.

SUSAN: Maybe the most rewarding thing was the conversations

with people afterwards who heard

themselves in the songs

and who laughed and recognized themselves

in the stories and the characters.

Boy, that's a great feeling when you're an artist,

is to feel like, yeah, they saw themselves,

and they've never seen themselves in

that specific way in material before.

SUSAN: This is a song I wrote for my Dad, really,

and my Dad grew up in the first five years,

10 years of his life, they farmed with horses,

and some of you may remember farming with horses

and the arrival of the tractors.

But this is really a love song for my Dad.

(cheerful guitar music)

* The moon is going to work

* He's hitching up his horses

* And his favorite team, of course, is

* Big old Jupiter and Mars

* The moon is going to work

* And his plow blade is a crescent

* And the evening's warm and pleasant

* It is time to plant the stars

* He will turn

* The rich dark earth of night

* He will scatter

* Sparkling seeds of light

* And they will grow

* Until they glow

* And then the cities

* All will come to claim them

* And who can blame them

* So make a wish on one

* Before they disappear

* The moon is going to work

* You can hear him if you're listening

* There's a little tune he's whistling

* It is time to plant the stars

(guitar music)

* He will fill the acres

* Of the sky

* Working westward

* As the night goes by

* Until he's done

* And day is begun

* And then the stars soak up the sun

* Like flowers

* Through the daylight hours

* And then they'll blossom

* In the night

* Before our eyes

* The moon is going to work

* And with diligence and patience

* Grows the mighty constellations

* It is time to plant the stars

* It is time to plant the stars

(guitar music)

* Hitch 'em up now

(guitar music)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: These songs seem to spark in the audience

intense memories and associations

of their own experience

growing up in rural Nebraska,

and the kinds, I think the specific memories

are what's really powerful.

(gentle piano music)

(combine noises)

(bird squawking)

SUSAN: This attachment is so profound.

I didn't know all that was in there.

I knew it was in there for me.

I didn't know how deep it went for so many people.

(gentle piano music)

I think we're smart to keep some feeling about farming

because there's an identity in farming

that doesn't exist in many other professions.

People are happy to tell you they're a farmer.

There are lots of professions where people don't volunteer

what it is they do all day,

probably because the work indoors.

It's not that fun to work indoors.

Cubicles aren't romantic.

But a field, working in the early morning

or while the sun is setting,

there's feeling to that, and, yeah,

there's poetry to that.

(gentle piano music)

SUSAN: It's ok to choose that.

In fact, it's wise to choose that

because then you'll wanna spend years at it.

It's a happy way to spend your working life,

and then it's a happy way to spend your evening

when you're done working.

Sitting outside in the lawn chair,

pop open a beer,

watch the stars put on a show.

That's the Milky Way.

Damn right, that's the Milky Way.

That's the whole Milky Way, right there.

* Bringing up the bad

* In the back of my mind

* Didn't trouble me

SUSAN: To have an arts endeavor that's sponsored

by not only an arts center,

but also an Ag school,

that's pretty innovative,

and it made for some really interesting conversations

as the project went on.

I learned a lot that I didn't know about

where agriculture is at today

by talking with people at IANR.

It informed the project and also brought

a certain kind of gravitas to the thing,

like this is not just some wacky artist

running around with her little point of view.

I learned lot in terms of agriculture

and what's going on today.

I'm grateful for that.

I think that it made for a better project,

and, again, it's ambitious to put arts and Ag together.

I mean, really, who's gonna think of that?

Maybe just somebody in Nebraska.

(birds chirping)

SUSAN: We were going west from Lincoln on this

most recent Arts Across Nebraska tour.

And I kinda started to think, there's gotta be a song.

There's gotta be a song.

And so this melody kinda started showing up,

and I thought, is that it? (humming)

I wanted it to be an odd, kind of a sing-songy,

but odd rhythmic thing.

I wanted it to stick in your head,

not in a predictable way,

in some slightly off-meter way

that would stay with you, really.

And this melody started showing up (humming).

* Oh Nebraska

* How I love you,

* How I love...

* ...your windswept skies

* And your prairies

* Winding rivers

* And the western hills

* That rise

* High above the plain

* Somewhere in the distance

* I can hear a train

* Singing, oh Nebraska

* My true love

* I am never leaving you again

(harmonica and guitar music)

* Land of kindness

* Land of plenty

* Land of peaceful dreams

* At night

* Stars that fill the dark

* I can hear the calling

* Of a meadowlark

* Singing, oh Nebraska

* My true love

* I am never leaving you

* In whatever else I may do

* I am never leaving you again

(harmonica and guitar music)

(audience applauds)

SUSAN: Thank you.

10 Star Wars Facts Only Die Hard Fans Will Know! (The Dan Cave w/ Dan Casey) - Duration: 9:16.

(uptempo music)

- May the 24th be with you.

Folks, today isn't just the 150th episode

of my show, holy crap.

- But it wasn't.

- But it also marks the eve of the 40th anniversary

of a little film called Star Wars.

On May 25th, 1977, a young filmmaker

named George Lucas unleashed his space fantasy

that was steeped in mythic storytelling traditions

on an unsuspecting public.

That public in turn went hog wild for it.

They bought the merchandise,

they dressed up as the characters,

they learned all these terms

that never actually appear in the movie,

ewok, and they never turned back.

Now four decades later, the influence

of Star Wars is stronger than ever,

and specifically Episode IV: A New Hope.

It can be seen practically everywhere in pop culture.

So to celebrate this auspicious anniversary,

today's episode of The Dan Cave

is all about little known A New Hope facts

that only die hard Star Wars fans already know.

Star Wars is the reason you have to leave

the movie theater when the movie's done playing.

It's not so they can just clean up

the gummy bears you spilled, Jess.

On May 25th, 1977, Star Wars opened

in 32 theaters across the country.

That movie went on to gross $255,000 in its opening day,

and word of mouth spread like wildfire.

It only got crazier and more profitable from there,

but that money didn't necessarily come from repeat viewers,

at least not at first.

A lot of people saw it multiple times,

but back then, most theaters had a policy

where you could just stay in the theater

as long as you liked if you bought a single ticket.

Now, the runaway success of Star Wars

actually made them change that policy,

forcing you to leave the theater and buy a new ticket.

That is, if you weren't sneaky enough

to loiter around the lobby and pretend

to play Cruis'n USA until you could

weasel your way into a second film.

Not that I did that.

You probably--

Anyway, just blame Star Wars.

The title used to be dumb as hell.

It turns out there's a really good reason

that scripts go through multiple revisions.

- I may have gone too far in a few places.

- Before it was simply called Star Wars,

George Lucas envisioned a much longer title.

The second draft of the script was entitled

Adventures of the Starkiller as taken

from the Journal of the Whills Saga I: The Star Wars.

Jesus.

It's kind of like how my show used to be called

Cave Quest: The Danacavens

Recollections from the Secret Diary of John Wilkes Booth

Compendium 4: That Old Chestnut.

The studio was afraid of Chewbacca's downstairs mix up.

Now, many of you know that Han Solo's fuzzball

of a copilot Chewbacca was actually inspired

by George Lucas' real life dog,

this giant Alaskan Malamute named Indiana.

- I got a lot of fond memories of that dog.

- But studio execs were still worried

that audiences would be scandalized by the fact

that he was essentially a nudist wearing a bandolier

and nothing else except just (bleep) tons of fur.

- I see your point, sir.

- Now apparently, studio execs wanted Chewie

to wear everything from lederhosen to culottes,

according to Mark Hamill and they even drew up

concept art of what that would look like.

But eventually, George's original vision

of a pantsless Wookiee won out,

and I think I speak for everyone when I say--

- Let the Wookiee win.

- R2-D2 wasn't always a little

bleeping and blooping sass bot.

Everyone's favorite astromech originally had

actual lines of dialog, in which he would chastise

his gibbering golden compatriot, C-3PO.

The dialog, though, was removed in post-production

and replaced with the iconic beeps and bloops

we know and love today,

and honestly, it's ultimately for the best

because it actually makes C-3PO seem like

this sort of anxiety-addled lunatic,

rather than just the victim of Droid rage.

- Don't you call me a mindless philosopher,

you overweight glob of grease.

- Darth Vader didn't kill Obi-Wan Kenobi.

George Lucas' ex wife did.

Though Darth Vader struck the killing blow,

old Ben Kenobi's blood is actually on Marcia Lucas' hands.

Now, not only did Marcia win an Oscar for editing Star Wars,

but she was actually the one who suggested

that Obi-Wan bite the bullet, or snarf the saber, I guess.

I don't know the term.

At first she suggested that 3PO get shot

when Lucas was struggling with how to end the movie,

but Lucas said no because he wanted

to start and end the film with Droids,

so Marcia then turned her sights on old Ben.

- No!

- It turned out to be exactly the emotional pathos

the film needed, and as a bonus,

it freed a cranky Sir Alec Guinness

from having to spend one more day

in uncomfortable robes in the Tahitian heat,

because honestly, that's so hard when you're making,

I don't know, something like $88 million off this movie.

Get over it, dude.

The Millennium Falcon didn't always

look as cool as it does now.

The original concept model for the Falcon

was this long cylindrical spacecraft

that was ultimately nixed because it looked too similar

to the ship on the British TV show, Space 1999.

Now, a version of that ship actually made it

into the final version of Star Wars

as the Rebel blockade runner you see

at the very beginning of the movie.

As for the Falcon itself,

well, legend has it that George Lucas

was eating a hamburger with an olive on the side

when he looked down at his plate

and realized it wasn't a beefwich at all,

but rather it was the blueprint

for the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.

Now, some online conspiracy theorists

don't exactly buy this theory.

They think it's actually created

from Austrian architect Otto Wagner's

1880 design for a never built office building,

but I think that just sounds like

they have beef with the original story.

Ralph McQuarrie gave Darth Vader space asthma.

Do you ever wonder why Darth Vader

had such an intense suit of armor

complete with a breathing apparatus

that puts iron lungs to shame?

Well, sure it's because he didn't have the high ground

back when he faced Obi-Wan back on Mustafar,

but really, it's because of concept artist Ralph McQuarrie.

Now, Lucas originally wanted a Samurai influence.

After all, he was obsessed with the films of Akira Kurosawa.

But McQuarrie felt that something was missing

from Vader's original design.

In the original script, it called for Vader

to travel between spaceships,

exposing himself to the infinite blackness of space.

So Ralph McQuarrie thought that he needed

some sort of specialized space suit

to help him breathe and survive the void.

So, McQuarrie drew a mask on him and the rest, as they say,

(imitating Darth Vader) is history.

I hate sand.

The force originated in Canada.

I know, I know, you thought it was this weird bacteria

that turns pod racing phenoms

into murderous sand-hating asthmatics,

but the force can actually trace its origins

all the way back a 1963 short film

by Montreal filmmaker Arthur Lipsett called 21-87.

After a traumatic car accident,

Lucas found himself with a budding interest in film

and spent a lot of time in art house cinemas.

Now, during one such trip to the movies,

he saw 21-87 and it left a major impression on him.

About three minutes into this movie,

there's a conversation between

artificial intelligence scientist Warren S. McCulloch

and cinematographer Roman Kroiter in which Kroiter says,

"Many people feel that in the contemplation of nature

and in communication with other living things,

they become aware of some kind of force

or something behind this apparent mask

which we see in front of us and they call it God."

- Its energy surrounds us and binds us.

- While it's not the only thing to influence the force,

it's definitely one of the earliest.

And let's just be grateful that Infinite Jest

hadn't been written yet or George Lucas

might have been really insufferable.

Star Wars almost featured some very different stars.

Now, I've done an entire episode about this before,

but there are tons of super famous actors

that auditioned for Star Wars,

only to turn down a part in the galaxy far, far away

or they just couldn't stay on target in the audition room.

Now, before the carpenter turned world's handsomest grump

Harrison Ford got the role,

Sylvester Stallone, Kurt Russell, Robert Englund,

Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, Bill Murray,

Nick Nolte, Jack Nicholson, Steve Martin,

Chevy Chase, and James Caan all auditioned for this part.

- Over my dead body.

- And speaking of weird casting ideas,

George Lucas himself had some very,

shall we say impulses regarding casting.

As Ernest Hemingway once allegedly said,

"It's easy to write.

You just sit in front of your typewriter and bleed."

Well, with Star Wars, Lucas didn't just bleed,

he straight up hemorrhaged,

and that led to some, shall we say,

impulsive decision-making during the pre-production process.

At various points during the movie's production,

Lucas considered making Star Wars with an all black cast,

an all Japanese cast, including Akira Kurosawa

staple Shimura Mifune as Obi-Wan Kenobi,

and a cast comprised entirely of little people,

which Lucas chocked up to being influenced

by Lord of the Rings.

Now, that's fine, that's all well and good,

but I just have one question.

Where the hell are those special editions, George?

Or Kathleen? Or Robert Iger?

Or whoever can make this happen?

And those, my friends, are some weird but true facts

about Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.

Happy 40th anniversary, Star Wars.

@JetpackPauls asks, "If you could Face/Off with anyone,

That's a great question, Paul.

Well, if I could have a Nick Cage John Travolta style

Face/Off with anyone, I'd wanna do it with Mr. Bean,

because that dude looks positively bonkers

and makes some seriously silly faces.

I just think it'd be a really fun time,

-------------------------------------------

Sonic Forces WILL Be A Great Sonic Game - Duration: 21:48.

Alright so some time has passed since the OC news a week ago.

Let me start by giving my two-cents on the game now that the custom character reactions

and craze have seemingly died down.

Nothing has changed, I'm still enjoying what I've seen out of Sonic Forces.

I like the idea this custom character brings, most of what I saw before-hand was already

interesting and viable for me.

I'm decently hyped for Sonic Forces.

I'm not wowed or on the edge of my seat in massive anticipation like Mario has done

these past couple months, but I'm still liking this so far and interested in more.

I believe Sonic Forces will be a good Sonic game when it launches.

And most people have argued how it's not that remarkable, it's not doing much for

them and such, and I can see that.

Even though the custom hero is actually a big addition to Sonic, I'm roughly in agreement

with a lot of others like I said.

But I believe there are things to take from this that can be deemed interesting and fun.

The custom character for instance is a big addition to Sonic as a whole, let alone Sonic

Forces.

The Custom fan characters are a popular thing in the Sonic fandom as well as other fanbases,

OCs take up a huge chunk of Sonic fans and say what you will about how bad and trashy

they are and how toxic the stigma is.

Not only are custom creations a decent idea in of themselves, look at Dragon Ball Xenoverse,

but there is a wide array of fans out there who were killing for this type of thing to

exist beyond online Microsoft Paint creations.

This custom hero by no means is sloppily placed together either.

There was a lot of thought and time taken to implement this 3rd gameplay style and character

without throwing off the balance of having 2 Sonics.

If we had a side character in there, Tails, Shadow, Knuckles, etc. the game would feel

one sided for having 2 Sonics.

Plus, Sonic has been panned for having so many side characters thrown to the way side.

Having a custom character that could be you or your own OC would suit that probably the

best than throwing one of the long list of side characters in there.

It has a lot of potential.

The presentation this game is offering, aside from Green Hill, is pretty great as well.

It looks like a Modern Sonic game.

Sonic going fast, the boost returning, the unique stage, the city on fire, broken fire

hydrants and crumbling buildings in flames, the Death Egg Robot sentinels destroying the

city, meteors falling from the sky, robots everywhere, there's a lot going on in Park

Avenue, and I liked that already.

I don't agree with Classic Sonic's inclusion, the game might've been better without him,

but I don't hate Classic Sonic's gameplay.

I like his classic games and I enjoyed his gameplay in Generations.

As much as I don't think Classic Sonic should be there at all, it still captures how Sonic

should play as in a Sonic game, like the Classic games and Generations.

I'm likely going to enjoy it here too and I might as well take it since he's not going

anywhere.

Even if this game looks like Generations 2, that was a given the moment Classic Sonic

was revealed last summer in the game, and even still Generations and Colors were great

Sonic games.

After Sonic's reputation of being experimental and usually failing when that comes to pass,

this kind of feels like a wake-up call.

Sonic Forces is shaping up to be a solid Sonic game.

Though with the boost, Classic Sonic, the wisps returning etc. people are calling SEGA

and Sonic Team lazy and cheap with Sonic Forces labelling them as "playing it safe."

Depending on where this argument goes, whenever I hear SEGA and/or Sonic Team is being lazy

with the boost, them reusing old formulas and concepts for Forces is bad and cheap and

should not be done, I just find it to be ignorant and in some ways, hypocritical.

If we're talking Classic Sonic, then that I agree with and makes a lot of sense.

Them marketing off Classic Sonic in a Modern Sonic game IS lazy and cheap, reusing Green

Hill for the 22nd time now in Sonic's history is lazy, even if it's the first level, but

mainly it's a Modern Sonic game, not Classic, even if we discover that Mania started development

2 years after Forces was created.

Mania was likely an afterthought for all we know, so the oversaturation of Classic Sonic

now was likely not accounted for when Classic Sonic was added to Forces.

But if we're talking the boost, the wisps, etc.

I don't think there's much room to say reusing old concepts is a bad idea, ESPECIALLY

if you're saying they need to go back and REUSE the Adventure gameplay.

Listen for a minute.

I sound like a broken record when I say this and other things in this video.

One issue for the boost is that it hasn't been improved upon and yes, that can be an

issue if this proceeds through the course of more and more Sonic games, but that still

doesn't mark the boost as a bad gameplay style.

Look at Mario.

He literally reuses past concepts almost all the damn time.

It's not even an exaggeration.

Look at the Mario & Luigi series, the Mario Kart series, the 3D Mario games even, look

at the goddamn New Super Mario Bros. games.

Mario fans love to crap on that series any chance they get, but what some don't know

is the New Super Mario Bros. games are some of the best-selling Mario games in history.

The New Super Mario Bros. games are notorious for being almost rehashes of the same game

and reusing a lot of assets of the first game.

But people still eat those games up, people still like them, because they're still fun

and enjoyable.

By Mario fans' standards because they're practically the same, they're average to

mediocre experiences because it's the same old thing, but that still doesn't equal

people's distaste and hatred for the series.

I'm not saying SEGA should be lazy, but if it ain't broke, don't fix it and the

boost itself, while still potentially in need of enhancements and additions to it to make

it feel different and innovative, doesn't need to be changed drastically.

Another example is Super Mario Odyssey.

That game's biggest attraction is returning to the concepts of Super Mario 64 and Sunshine's

gameplay mechanics regarding Mario's controls and sandbox gameplay.

Nintendo is reusing old concepts for this game and expanding upon them, which is causing

millions of people out there to practically orgasm.

The one trailer for the game has over 21 freakin' views, people are loving that game for multiple

reasons, one of them being reusing that old style.

This could explain why Classic Sonic is used again, while it honestly still is cheap and

pandering to older fans more so than the Adventure AND Modern fans.

Meanwhile, the boost itself isn't that old either.

In one way, shape or form, we've seen various Adventure-esque games ranging from both Adventure

titles, to Heroes, Shadow, 06, Lost World, Boom, etc.

Sonic Rush introduced the boost back in 2005, yet it wasn't defined and noticed until

Sonic Unleashed.

Then Rush Adventure, Colors and Generations took it and slowly improved upon it, mostly

regarding Sonic's controls.

And disregarding the Werehog in Unleashed, all of those games inhibiting the boost were

very well received, especially when Colors and Generations rolled around.

Those 2 games were regarded as the best Sonic games since the Adventure titles by many reviewers

and Sonic fans, applauding the boost on top of other elements in those games.

As a matter of fact, Sonic Generations sold more copies than Sonic Adventure 2.

For as diverse as the fandom can get, it's become a meme and popular belief that Adventure

2 was the superior Sonic game of the bunch, whether it'd be Shadow, the story, the variety

in stages, the music, etc. and I can see why, Sonic Adventure 2 is a fantastic Sonic game.

Even though the first Adventure sold more, that's not to say the boost gameplay isn't

beloved, especially if a boost game sold more and was about as well received as Adventure

2.

Generations was applauded for not only sticking with the boost, but also using Classic Sonic

in a modern game which made sense at the time, Colors was as well for taking what worked

in Unleashed and making it its own game and again, circling back to Mario's rehash of

old gimmicks and ideas.

It's not them reusing concepts that's the issue, it's the concern of whether or

not something was added or changed to make the experience feel different, new and refreshing.

Building off or expanding that gameplay style is the main concern for modern Sonic because

the boost itself hasn't really changed that drastically in any of those Sonic games and

if something was added alongside the boost, like the parkour mechanic or more expansive

3D platforming level and gameplay design, then that could benefit Sonic and his direction

significantly.

So, to say them reusing old formulas as a cheap strategy and poor game design is blind

and hypocritical, especially when not only are a lot of fans begging for the Adventure

style gameplay, a gameplay style which they did before, a CONCEPT people want them to

REUSE, but also when people are calling Sonic Mania, a game that LITERALLY IS REUSING the

concepts and gameplay of Sonic CD and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, a true, pure Sonic game.

And where some fans are coming from saying "reusing the Wisps is a bad idea" and

"there's a lack of distinct level design" and others is understandable.

The thing about the Wisps being an issue is that they slowed down the pacing of the game

as well as them being completely unnecessary and shoehorned in Lost World.

Here, the Wispons are actually limited to just the custom character as a form of gadgets

and it's a portmanteau of the words wisp and weapon.

Disregarding the boost wisp, the other wisps are added to the custom hero only and don't

appear to slow the gameplay down.

The guy doesn't transform like Sonic did, and the color power is emitted out of that

arm cannon the character has immediately upon use, and you have the option of either taking

the high road or the low road, which does give the player more options and ways to explore

the level as well as with those grappling points you can use your hook to speed up the

pacing however you'd like.

It's a steady form of offense and traverse for the wisps for the custom hero only, which

isn't a bad idea.

At least it's not plopped right on top of the Sonics and just thrown about willy nilly.

And we only have 2 levels so far, one being Green Hill, and the other being Park Avenue.

The thing that worries me about Park Avenue is the level design being practically the

same as Modern Sonic's level.

I know each of their gameplay properties is different for varying paths and ways to go

through the level, and maybe what we saw was a mission of some kind since those are coming

back as well.

Maybe there'll be a lot more levels at E3.

There's reason to suspect more levels and surprises among these characters for E3 because

that's when everyone will be paying attention to this game.

This is kind of comparable to Sonic Adventure in a way since the characters in that game

had the same levels with different goals so maybe it won't be that bad.

The thing I'm hoping for is more stages, especially for Modern Sonic and Custom Hero,

less linearity aka less hallways and automation, along the lines of Sonic Unleashed's stages

in terms of scope, variety and platforming with movement controls improved from Sonic

Generations, the stages themselves being different and unique, great soundtrack, and a decent

story.

Warren Graff is writing the story, which is my biggest concern so I pray to god he actually

wrote something decent with not too many corny jokes like Lost World and Colors.

And another thing where Mario succeeds whereas Sonic doesn't.

Mario and mostly Sonic fans have come to a belief that the Mario franchise is broken

off into 5 pillars of some sort, the 2D pillar, the 3D pillar, the sports pillar, the RPG

pillar, and the spinoff pillar, something along these lines and that makes a lot of

sense.

But one thing all those pillars have in common, when it comes to most Mario games' success,

is sticking to a formula.

Just like in the New Super Mario Bros series and the 3D Mario games, there's some foundation

those games have that's either reused entirely or reused and taken to a different level.

One of the biggest complaints in the Sonic franchise is that he has so many experimental

games.

Instead of sticking to one solid foundation, one formula that people have thrived for,

Sonic kept getting shoved into so many different gameplay styles and without setting those

pillars or other fields to cushion Sonic's different gameplay styles, he's not only

gotten hammered hard for doing so, but has broken the fanbase off into so many different

sections and niches that prefer one of those gameplay styles over the other.

It can get super confusing and misleading for SEGA, Sonic Team and the Sonic fanbase

itself to clarify and see what the hell is the best course of action as well as the fact

that some of those fans even skew their own opinion in favor of something someone else

kept shoving in their face.

The Sonic fandom's become such a diverse community that it's difficult to gauge what

exactly would be best for the community and Sonic's future.

It becomes even harder because when a new game does arise sticking to one gameplay style,

the Sonic fans who don't like that become more vocal than usual and tend to say "this

is not what we wanted" yet there is a decent majority of fans who like and asked for that

gameplay style, in this case, the boost.

When Lost World came out, that confused and pushed Sonic fans back due to the gameplay,

level design, controls and story and such to be vastly different from Generations, Colors

and Unleashed.

It seemed the boost would be the foundation for Sonic up until Lost World changed the

formula again, which ultimately hurt the game and Sonic again.

Lost World was able to form its own identity with the parkour mechanic and other gameplay

elements, but still ended up being below average to mediocre Sonic games for most people.

Them trying to being innovative, experimental and different, kicked them in the ass and

this wasn't the only time.

Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic Unleashed, the Sonic Riders series, Sonic and the Black Knight,

Sonic Boom, even Sonic 06 yet there was more than just being experimental with that game.

All these games have different identities, different ways of being experimental, but

one way or another ultimately hurt SEGA and Sonic's reputation with the Werehog, the

guns, the swords, the triple teams, the forced replay, the slow clunky exploration gameplay,

etc.

Just because the game has an identity, doesn't equal it being a good game already.

With that said, whether you agree or not with the boost, the Adventure gameplay, the custom

character, and whatever else, you're welcome to form your own opinions and speculations

on Sonic and anything here.

I'm just saying what I feel should be heard and opinions deserve to be heard of and accepted.

If some of you out there want to shoot down others thoughts and explanations in favor

of your own with either various reasons or none up your sleeve, then that's the behavior

that's poisoning the gaming community as a whole, not just Sonic, and you need to stop

being sensitive, hypocritical, and willfully ignorant.

At the point of Lost World, there were a number of fans asking for the actual Adventure gameplay

as well as the boost fans asking for that back as well.

The boost fans got what they asked for yet the Adventure fans are still unhappy.

Here, Sonic Team/SEGA might have found out that the boost was their groove, their formula.

For them to go back to the boost and "play it safe," why is it bad now?

When has SEGA ever played it safe with Sonic?

Shadow wasn't.

06 was the exact opposite of safe.

The Werehog wasn't safe either, the Wisps were an interesting gameplay mechanic that

was new and effective, Generations was a milestone celebration looking past Sonic's history

for his 20th anniversary, which was a decent idea, Lost World didn't play it safe either.

Regarding spin offs, The Rush series was new for Sonic, Secret Rings and Black Knight were

not basic either, especially with the controls, stories and swords.

Sonic's never really played it safe that much before.

And again, Sonic's had that bad reputation of being such a diverse series with so many

different gameplay aspects.

Not to mention, SEGA's fiscal reports are pretty low as of recently.

Did we all forget how mediocre and low the reception and quality was for Lost World and

Boom, how bad that tarnished Sonic's rep all over again?

They would have to "play it safe" just to get people interested and excited for Sonic

again and to fix that spread of confusion Lost World and Boom did cause.

Mania's been doing an excellent job at that, and Forces seems to be too, not just with

Modern Sonic but mostly because of the Custom hero because that does seem to be a very interesting

idea.

It's good to go for change, and that's what Sonic usually does, whether it be good

or bad, but I think it'd be best for them to take it a step back, return to the boost

and reflect on whether or not this and maybe even the custom hero's gameplay style will

still prove effective, confirm how it pans out, and see whether or not to return to the

one and only style they didn't reuse that was successful, or build off the boost in

other ways such as adding parkour, adding more 3D sections and more 3D platforming,

slowing it down, adding an extra element to it that's new, and other possibilities.

Because as much as its well-received and how I like the boost, the boost itself is still

flawed, making stages feel small and short even if they account for their massive sizes.

Regarding the Adventure gameplay, there might be some hidden ripple effect we don't know

about with Sonic and Mario.

When Mario made a galactic adventure, Sonic did too in the vain of Sonic Colors and especially

Lost World.

When Mario Kart 7 released, Sonic took a kart racing game of his own afterwards.

It's loose and lacking substance, I know, but I really believe Super Mario Odyssey may

impact SEGA and Sonic in a way that the Adventure style of gameplay may take shape in the next

Sonic game.

I doubt it will here, if anything it might be closer to Unleashed, which was the closest

Modern Sonic game to capture that Adventure-esque feel, but like how that game is reusing concepts

of an old, yet popular Mario game, Sonic may follow suit after this.

The only thing is coming with the story, any form of ambition and innovation within that

style of gameplay upon other elements, like the question of should there be multiple gameplay

styles, and other things to consider, because Adventure's quality doesn't stem just

from Sonic and his gameplay.

People love the character development Tails, Amy and Gamma got in Sonic Adventure.

People love the variety and level design in Sonic and Shadows stages as well as Knuckle's

& Eggman's stages, minus the downgraded Emerald hunting radar.

There was more to Adventure than just the Sonic gameplay and whether or not SEGA and

Sonic Team would take it upon themselves to either remaster the original games or do a

brand-new Adventure game entirely, whether it be strictly Sonic or with multiple characters,

is beyond me to guess.

And even if by having those different styles of gameplay, that still ruffles up Sonic's

overall identity in gaming regardless.

Is he mostly a 2D centric platforming game because of the 2D sections and Classic Sonic?

Is he a boost-formulated fasted paced platformer?

Is he going to change his gameplay into something completely different?

Will it be Sonic and someone else in a Modern Sonic game?

What is Sonic the Hedgehog today?

And with the boost returning, we might have an answer finally but for all we know, they

might pull another Lost World on us.

That being said, what should be done for Sonic, especially after Forces if the confidence

and faith in Sonic will pick up after this and Mania, which I do believe it will, is

to focus on Sonic himself, his own gameplay, and figure out what to do with him.

And like I said, what they could do if the boost pans out to be successful once again,

is let it stand on its own and create more expansive stages and platforming because that

can complement the boost as well with how fast and long it can go.

Sonic Unleashed, again, is the closest we got to that, especially looking at the Wii/Ps2

versions as well as the Xbox and PS3 versions because there was more open space and more

3D platforming than any other Modern Sonic game, the levels were big and vast, and Sonic's

controls have gotten easier to maintain in terms of full 3D movement.

Doing something like what Unleashed did regarding those stages and the boost would benefit Sonic

greatly if the boost does stick with Modern Sonic from here on out because a lot of people

can agree with what I said regarding that Unleashed open world, platforming, boost Adventure

mix gameplay.

The boost is not about exploration and all that, it's about Sonic going fast and hitting

those high speeds, but a middle ground can be met somewhere in there, I'm pretty sure

it's possible.

You just have to add more in the stages and give them more things going on than making

them big and empty and future games could also apply other mechanics like the parkour

or others like I mentioned earlier in order to make it stand out and be innovative.

If it somehow fails, then Adventure might be their last bet and we might get that in

the future.

I say don't lose hope for that.

Not yet.

In a nutshell, whether it be Adventure or boost, you can't please everyone.

What needs to be done is don't pander to every audience for the sake of Sonic's games

because that's impossible, give Sonic a strong identity via a solid gameplay style

that can work in tandem to that, take as much time on his games like they've doing with

Forces, Mania and Sonic Boom Fire & Ice and shove as much passion and effort into it as

they can as if it were their last game.

All this considered, Sonic Forces still looks like a promising Sonic game.

Classic Sonic's inclusion's arguable, but his gameplay doesn't look bad.

There could be some enjoyment out of it.

Modern Sonic's gameplay is still nice to look at and who knows what other stages and

elements he has.

The custom character is an interesting choice and a nicely thought-out one as well.

Classic Sonic still has a twist in his gameplay we've yet to see, there's still more stages,

characters and story that has to be seen, and we still have more info and details regarding

Modern Sonic and Custom Hero.

We still have plenty more to look forward to.

I'm still really excited for Sonic Forces and anticipating more gameplay to be shown

at this year's E3.

I'm sure we're gonna get a lot more info on this game regarding more story, more stages,

more gameplay elements, more gameplay footage, and coverage as this game is gonna get a demo

at E3.

There's still a lot more about this game left to be seen, and I'm looking forward

to it.

Apologies again for sounding like a broken record because some of you, and even I feel

like I'm repeating a good amount of what I said before.

Thanks for watching and be sure to stick around for more Sonic Forces, Sonic Mania and other

things Sonic the Hedgehog.

Stay super.

Montana Special Election Will Be a Close Race: 3 Things to Watch - Duration: 1:23.

Hi, my name is Simone Pathe

I'm senior political reporter here at Roll Call

and I'll be watching the special election

for the at-large House seat in Montana on Thursday

this is the seat vacated by former congressman Ryan Zinke

a Republican who is now the interior secretary in the Trump administration

there are three things I'll be watching closely on Thursday

the first is turnout

not just how many people turn out to vote

but who and where they're coming from

so far Republicans have been enthused

that college is out for the summer

which means that the liberal grassroots base may be somewhat less likely

to turn out to vote for Democrat Rob Quist

on the other hand

Republicans have to hope that their base turns out

for a candidate who lost a similar

statewide bid just six months ago

when he ran for governor

the second thing I'll be looking for

is the margin of victory here

most public and private polling has suggested that

it could be in the single digits in the Republicans' favor

that would be a huge swing

from the margins we saw last fall

when Donald Trump carried the district by 20 points

and Ryan Zinke carried it by 16

so the last thing I'll be watching in Montana's race

is how both parties is how both parties spin the outcome

it's a close race

closer than expected

but nowhere near as close as the Georgia special election is supposed to be next month
