The story of Vanquish is set in the near future. Russia and the United States are vying for ownership of the world’s fast-depleting energy resources and the US has constructed a space station in order to harness energy from the sun. Russian forces capture this space station and divert its harvested solar energy into a blast wave that destroys San Francisco, aiming to force the US into a total and unconditional surrender. In response, the US tasks its armed forces with recapturing the space station before the Russians can annihilate their next target — New York.

Players take the role of Sam, a government agent who must stop the threat before it is too late. Armed with a special suit and a plethora of weapons, Sam also has an array of martial arts skills that he can use to take down his robot enemies.

AN 94-S: Battlefield Bad Company 2 Weapon Collectables / Collectibles

admin — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 20:33:08 +0000

AN 94-S is first seen in mission: Sangre Del Toro.

In Base Station Bravo (middle objective), after heading up some steps you will come to a large courtyard. You’ll be attacked by a helicopter, stay low! Fend off the enemies, and then head out. One will most likely have dropped the AN 94-S. The M60 is also in this courtyard, and perhaps the MG 3R, however I will show a more likely location.

Collectible vinyl records?

admin — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 13:58:03 +0000

I have a whole box of vinyl records from the 1970′s and 80′s. Some are in the original plastic (never opened) and a couple in plastic (but opened). I have a Linda Ronstadt 3 cassette tape album from 1980′s (still in original wrapper). There’s about 3 partridge family albums, one Jermaine Jackson, and a couple of Russian Orchestra albums. Just to give you an idea. There are many more. I have no idea what any of these are worth if anything. I even have a signed Brad Swanson from 1971. Does anyone know where I can go to see if these are worth anything or where to sell them? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Look them up on eBay and compare yours to what you see there. Some probably won’t be worth much, but albums that are still shrink-wrapped can go for some pretty good money.

For example, back in the late 70′s I bought a special edition ‘Hemispheres’ by Rush that was pressed on red vinyl, because I thought it was cool and had a chance of being worth something someday. I never opened it, and it’s still packed away with all of my other albums since I moved over 20 years ago. The red vinyl record was made and released only in Canada and apparently they dried up pretty fast. I have seen used copies in excellent condition with excellent jacket go for $10 – $20, but the unopened shrink-wrapped version goes for $100+.

You may not do that well on one record, but your unopened ones give you the best chance of that.

I’m looking for a comic book store in San Francisco ..?

admin — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 10:58:05 +0000

.. I was there April 07 and it’s up from Market .. If I had to say I’d guess up and more into the middle .. it’s on the middle of a row and there’s some Russian shops dotted to the left and right around it.
Inside it’s pretty deep and long with loads of collectable figures (mostly on the right inside the door) and there’s trading card meetings in a meeting area out the back.
What I’m really looking for btw is Nintendo collectables (Mario / Animal Crossing / any 1st party Nintendo ‘stuff’) and they had some good stuff there the last time .. hope someone from SF can help (or suggest any other good place to get Nintendo goodies) .. thanks!

Maybe you mean "Al’s Comics"? Not sure what you mean by "up from Market". Al’s is on Market towards the Castro.

what does article mean?

admin — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 18:37:01 +0000

I was reading this artical i have no idea what it means. please help. wright what you think it means under each paragraph

Increasingly, within the domains of film studies, art history, and cultural and

communication studies, the role of national identity as a component of visual

analysis has become paramount. The work of Timothy Barringer, Robert

Burgoyne, David Peters Corbett, Darrell William Davis, Nicholas Mirzoeff, Sarah

Street, and Janet Wolff, amongst others, has demonstrated the importance of

including, for example, ideas of .Americanness" or "Englishness" in the discussion

of painting, photography, and cinema. 1 The purpose of this issue of Invisible

Culture, therefore, is to investigate how visual culture can be analyzed as an

expression of national identity, including how questions of national identity are

negotiated through different forms of visual culture. Visual culture, in this context, is

understood not as a mirror that reflects national identity, but rather a complex

venue for its interpretation . a site through which populations come into

consciousness as members of a particular community.

J.T.H. Connor and Michael G. Rhode explore the complicated relationship between

medical photography and national identity, in both .high art. culture and the broader

realm of visual studies. In their essay, .Shooting Soldiers: Civil War Medical

Images, Memory, and Identity in America,. the authors analyze paintings and

photographs of amputees, wounded soldiers, and victims of disease, all of which

served to construct notions of "history" and "war," and ultimately, "Americaness"

during and after the Civil War. These images, whether used as forms of medical

evidence or accumulated as collectables play a fundamental role, as Connor and

Rhode attest, in our understanding of how visual culture has informed American

notions of national self.

Daniel Humphrey.s analysis of Mikhail Kalatozov’s film Sol Svanetii (Salt for

Svanetia) investigates notions of the "primitive" as they relate to early Russian

ethnographic filmmaking. In .Saving the Other/Rescuing the Self: Promethean

Lucy Curzon – Introduction: Visual Culture and National Identity

Aspirations in Mikhail Kalatozov.s Sol Svanetii,. Humphrey demonstrates the

colonialist intentions of the Soviet Union by highlighting the ways in which

Kalatozov worked to visually construct the people of Svanetia as primitive or

uncivilized, and hence present them as ripe for colonization by Stalin’s series of

five year plans. Humphrey then extends his analysis by dissecting the more latent

intentions of ethnographic filmmaking –that is, beyond the construction of a onedimensional

"other." He describes the colonization project as both homosocial and

misogynist, thereby offering a new perspective on Sol Svanetii, in particular, and

ethnographic film in general.

In her essay .A Case Study in the Construction of Place: Boundary Management as

Theme and Strategy in Canadian Art and Life,. Gaile McGregor explores how the

Canadian sense of being-in-the-world is represented by notions of enclosure.

McGregor argues that a "garrison mentality" exists amongst Canadians, one which

manifests itself through the constant reproduction of boundaries in painting,

television, and film. In their history, Canadians have a very different relationship to

the wilderness in comparison to their American neighbors, and as such, represent

themselves as a people who take comfort in the imposition of limits. As McGregor

suggests, this idea exists in direct contrast to optimistic American notions of "the

frontier" — its endless attraction and adventure. Instead, Canadians maintain

fundamental distinctions between "here" and "there" or "society" and "wilderness."

This way of thinking, in turn, allows them to negotiate a distinct form of visual

culture.

Daniela Sandler.s article, .Incarnate Politics: the Rhetorics of German Reunification

in the Architecture of Berlin,. investigates the 1990s renovation of Potsdamer Platz

as a way of discussing national identity in newly united Germany. For Sandler,

Potsdamer Platz provides a fertile site for examining late twentieth-century

capitalist culture, and how this culture has imposed itself upon Germany.s sense of

national self. Potsdamer Platz — once a busy, central axis — was overtaken by the

Nazi Party during the Second World War, and was subsequently razed by Allied

bombing. The district was further tainted when it was bisected by the Berlin Wall.

But now, after the turn of the twenty-first century, the area is densely populated by

office buildings, movie theaters, shops, and restaurants. Nothing of its past

remains. The mega-corporations that now occupy the area have expunged its

history . good and bad . and have replaced it, instead, with a façade of

The basic idea of the passage is summed up at the end of the first paragraph. The article is basically explaining how visual art (painting, film, photography, etc.) has been used to express national identity. The difficult part of understanding this has to do with viewing a piece of art not as a symbol of something (TELLING the viewer what to think) but rather as an image of something (ALLOWING the viewer to place his own interpretation onto the piece of art). This is the basic idea of the "modernist" movement.

Think of the difference between the Confederate flag and a picture of an old southern house. The flag is a symbol; it has meaning attached to it and is generally pretty objectively viewed…everyone who views the flag will think of repression, the Civil War, etc. The picture of the house, on the other hand, is open to interpretation; different people could see nostalgia, loss, solemn feelings, happiness, etc. depending on their own backgrounds.

The rest of the article explains how certain specific pieces of visual art are able to be viewed in a similar vein, and often can inspire nationalist feelings and even help define nationalist identity and purpose.
