interests of consumers, repealing Directive 2009/22/EC and to
provide for related matters.

See, for what it's worth, I prefer to see the board that way - latest posts first. Since I can't find any way to change it -- 3.0 has even fewer user tools than 2.0 -- I'm going to have to ask Ning to do it. Which I won't if there's a huge hue and cry to leave it reverse-chronological. I prefer chronological myself, but I'm open to argument. I think I speak for everyone in saying we should all do what we need in the next couple of weeks to make sure you don't have to pay for an extra year.

The detective discovers she has become a part of a religious cult that strongly protects its members from leaving. The P.I. assembles a team consisting of an ex-cop, an ex-boxer and a Viet Nam vet to help him rescue the girl from the clutches of the cult."Surprisingly, Low Blow is a sequel to Killpoint.

I thought a thread of this kind might help out our new members. If anyone has a question, just ask away. When you're writing a post, you can make the html tags in it visible by pressing the 'html' button (the rightmost one above the reply box). This is particularly helpful if you want to put a "reply" quote at the start of your post.

Let me throw up a warning:Interesting move to replicate the scene from Man of Steel with the townsfolks facing a tornado and now it's Sam Lane with the bad advice for them all to shelter below the highway underpass.

Saw a Takashi Miike picture called The Great Yokai War. "Yokai" is a Japanese term for monsters from folklore, as opposed to the more familiar kaiju. It's a kids' picture, about a young boy from Tokyo sent out to live in the countryside with his older sister and his intermittently senile grandfather. When a vengeful spirit appears, the boy gets caught up in a war between warring groups of yokai and must find his courage to become the "Kirin Rider", the hero who will set everything to rights.
