“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Those of you who know your Bible – which is to say, you are not a “Christian” Zionist, and therefore understand Scripture in its proper, correct, and full context – will know what I mean when I invoke the name, “Jeroboam, son of Nebat”. Jeroboam was, of course, one of...
Cyclists get a lot of hate. I know, because I used to be one. Back in my skool daze, so to speak, I put on a bike helmet and a big thick yellow jacket, and rode a mountain bike through the streets of London, pretty much every day. It is fair to say that most motorists...

The latest triple-A game to launch and faceplant, HARD, has been, of course, Gears of War: E-Day. The independent media has been full of news about just how bad things have gotten for that game – and, weirdly enough, this is one game where the backlash is, at first...
