Midwinter was released in 1989 by Maelstrom games and considered to be one of the most influential games around. It combined First Person Shooter with Role Playing and Strategy elements too. Although the game was a critical success, the learning curve was very steep, and no-one would know what to do unless they had the instruction manual on hand. The game covered 160000 square miles in what could be described as "nuclear winter." My review: Well, for the time it certainly looks impressive. Unfortunately, the control system does seem a bit botched. You have the choice of 3 control methods, and god help you if you pick the joystick. If there isnt one plugged in, you are screwed. When you switch to a different control method the one you originally picked ceases to function. I picked the mouse as the instruction manual recommended I use it. The training phase is certainly fun, although I do have a mixed reaction with the modes of transport: Skiing: Perfectly responsive, although can be slow going uphill unless you have your finger pinned on the left mouse button. Hang-Gliding: Seriously, WTF? Snowmobile: Definitely the fastest, and perfectly responsive. Sniping: No fire button? I seriously did not understand the campaign one bit. Syncronised watches?? The reason I had to crash into that church was because there was no button to quit skiing, except the training mode which is X. Score: 7/10, it certainly showed the world what it was capable of and was really impressive for the .... + Informações

Her crystalclear voice has made Sissel a national institution in Norway. Sissel has sung all over the world, selling over six million solo albums. She contributed the haunting vocal tracks for the soundtrack to Titanic. She has been doing great duets with singers like Placido Domingo, Charles Aznavour, Taro Ichihara, Bryn Terfel, Jose Carreras, Russell Watson, Kurt Nilsen, Neil Sedaka and Josh Groban. A very remarkable voice you will only hear once in your lifetime. "In the Bleak Mid-Winter" is a Christmas carol and the lyrics were written as a poem by English poet Christina Rossetti before 1872. It was published posthumously in Rossetti's Poetic Works in 1904 and became a Christmas carol after it appeared in The English Hymnal in 1906 with a setting by Holst. The text of this Christmas poem has been set to music many times, the most famous settings being composed by Gustav Holst and Harold Edwin Darke in the early 20th century. In Norway this song is called "I En Steingrå Vinter" and can be found on Sissel`s latest release "Strålande Jul" from 2009.. + Informações

The choir of Kings College Chapel, Cambridge sing the lovely Christmas carol, In The Bleak Midwinter. The wonderful words of Christina Georgina Rossetti are sung to a beautiful setting by Gustav Holst. 1. In the bleak mid-winter Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak mid-winter Long ago. 2. Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him Nor earth sustain; Heaven and earth shall flee away When He comes to reign: In the bleak mid-winter A stable-place sufficed The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ. 3. Enough for Him, whom cherubim Worship night and day, A breast full of milk And a manger full of hay; Enough for Him, whom angels Fall down before, The ox and ass and camel Which adore. 4. Angels and archangels May have gathered there, Cherubim and seraphim Thronged the air, But only His mother In her maiden bliss, Worshipped the Beloved With a kiss. 5. What can I give Him, Poor as I am? If I were a shepherd I would bring a lamb, If I were a wise man I would do my part, Yet what I can I give Him, Give my heart.. + Informações

This has been a long time coming, since it was pretty difficult to get into. Usually I like to play new games for the first time in the video, but I had to break with convention this time because of the complexity and obscure interface of this game. Took a while to figure out how to actually play this game. Midwinter is a mix of strategic and action elements, where you lead a guerilla force against an invading army on the island of Midwinter. This takes place in the middle of an ice age brought on by nuclear winter. The goal is to recruit other inhabitants on the island and undermine the enemy forces by sabotaging their infrastructure. I didn't get far, since this is a very difficult and long term game. It is impressive especially for it's time. It if weren't for the inevitable low frame rate in the action modes, which makes aiming the gun difficult, this would be a very appealing game. Remake anyone? This is a request by Slenkar, Trusteft Fawltykog and TheUngulable.

"In the Bleak Midwinter" is a Christmas carol. Although the lyrics were written as a poem by English poet Christina Rossetti before 1872, it was published posthumously in Rossetti's Poetic Works in 1904 and became a Christmas carol after it appeared in The English Hymnal in 1906 with a setting by Holst. According to the website CyberHymnal, Rossetti wrote these words in response to a request from the magazine Scribner's Monthly for a Christmas poem. The text of this Christmas poem has been set to music many times, the most famous settings being composed by Gustav Holst and Harold Edwin Darke in the early 20th century. There is another setting?less well known?from the same era, by Thomas B. Strong. Benjamin Britten includes a setting for chorus in his work "A Boy Was Born". Eric Thiman wrote a setting for solo voice and piano. More recently Bob Chilcott, at one time a member of The King's Singers, wrote a choral setting entitled "Mid-winter". Another recent setting is that by a Canadian, Robert CL Watson. The Holst version has been recorded by a number of popular recording artists, including Bert Jansch, Julie Andrews in 1982, Allison Crowe in 2004, Maire Brennan in 2005 and Sarah McLachlan in 2006, as well as by many choirs including the Robert Shaw Chorale and the choir of St. John's College, Cambridge.
