There's something happening in the Twilight Arbor and, starting from today, players are going to get the chance to find out exactly what it is and try to put a stop to it.
The new patch, Twilight Assault, gives players a brand new, level 80 path through the Twilight Arbor, giving them a chance to fight parallel with Caith to find a way into Scarlet's secret base and battle the monster at the centre of it all. Things aren't going to be easy though, and even veteran dungeon-delvers will have to keep their wits about them as they navigate co-op puzzles, traps and newly rebalanced Aetherblade Army mobs.

Watch Startup Bathys Creates An Atomic Clock For Your Wrist
While this watch may look goofy as all get-out, rest assured it holds an important spot in the history of timekeeping. It is one of the first "atomic" clocks that is accurate to a second every thousand years - provided the battery doesn't die. Called the Cesium 133 it's made by a [Warning: Autoplaying audio]
The watch uses a small Symmetricon SA.45s CASC, an atomic clock on a chip. It provides the timekeeping system for the analog clock face. The creator, Dr. John Patterson, slapped the chip into a milled metal case, added a face and a strap, and is now working on figuring out how to manufacture these monsters. This isn't even the watch's final form. According to : Further, the final version of the Cesium 133 watch will have some LED status lights and a more attractive case. The prototype is 60mm wide by 50mm tall, and 23mm thick. The final version will have a light-weight carbon fiber case, be smaller, and retain the classic Bathys moon phase dial.

...And it was all just a dream. Or Purgatory.
Today, when a story reveals it was all in the character's head or they were dead all along, it could be accused of being unoriginal and lazy. However, a few writers still manage to do it well, but these are the exceptions. In my opinion the trope is becoming very tired, but some writers seem to disagree. If the writer is still at school and already used 'then a helicopter came and saved them' too often then it's excusable. But don't forget the obligatory 'and my mum was calling me to come down and eat breakfast' ending. If the writer isn't a child they might want to consider how often the trope has been used before, and maybe not go with the first idea they have.
To paraphrase Dr Seuss, some are good, some are bad, some are very, very sad.

For The Triumph of Evil: Sleepy Hollow Keeps Me Watching
Well, well, well, this is the first episode that really gave me the creeps and it was exactly what I have been wanting from this show.Honestly this was the first episode I truly enjoyed!But, I can't help but wonder if I love this show for the right reasons.Sleepy Hollow reminds me of so many other things, a lot of it feels unoriginal, reminding me of TV shows and movies that I happen love.Does it's lack originality make it a bad show?No, but I would love to see it break away from norms and give us a new and body original plot line.
Keeping in tone with it's Supernatural-like story line, Ichabod and Abbie fight a new demon this week, with the end of the world looming in the over-arching plot line.The show opens with Abigail Mills being trapped in a weird and super creepy dream.Dreams obviously play an important role in this series which is great!You can do literally anything in this dream.And Abbie's dream was a doosey!For the first time I was really creeped out by the all white sandman type monster (fyi I typed this before they actually called him the Sandman, I'm pretty proud of myself).NOW I'm interested!I got a chill for SURE!This is the kind of monster I was waiting for, this is the kind of body rocking chill I expected when I started watching.... One question though, Why hasn't anybody gotten Ichabod modern clothes?He's been wearing the same outfit for awhile.

Shiver Review
Indie horror is always a strange beast, as productions can either shell out significant dough for big-name talent, or they can invest in practical effects work and crazy, bloody action - but not both (typically). It's a shame budgetary constraints plague projects, but it also speaks volumes when a director can overcome such hurdles and create a surprising genre hit hidden amidst a slew of similar films. is unfortunately one of the films that secured some serious genre star power in Danielle Harris, John Jarratt, and Casper Van Dien, but doesn't really stack up other places. Danielle Harris is a Scream Queen legend these days, and John Jarrett has been making a name by playing psychopaths, but a weakly structured story didn't let these stars truly break out. There wasn't a shiver, shutter, or squirm to be had during Julian Richards' latest - don't let the name fool you.
Danielle Harris plays Wendy Allen, a woman being targeted by a serial killer who calls himself "The Griffin" (John Jarratt). Escaping his first attack, Wendy works with the local police in an attempt to capture a killer who has already taken the lives of numerous women, but as she tries to stay safe, "The Griffin" is always able to stay one step ahead. Time after time, Wendy thinks the worst is behind her, but "The Griffin" reveals he has much bigger plans for our protagonist. Becoming an object of obsession, Wendy tries to outsmart her stalker with the help of Detective Sebastian Delgado (Casper Van Dien), which proves to be a dangerous chore. Will Wendy find peace, putting an end to "The Griffin," or will he find one more victim for his creepy collection.
