The Death of Ivan Ilyich, by Leo Tolstoy.

Besides considerations as to the possible transfers and promotions likely to result from Ivan Ilych’s death, the mere fact of the death of a near acquaintance aroused, as usual, in all who heard of it the complacent feeling that, “it is he who is dead and not I.” Each one thought or felt, “Well, he’s dead but I’m alive!”

Very few liturgical manuscripts related to the Knights Templar have been preserved. The one used here is from the middle of the 12th century. It is the oldest musical manuscript for the use of the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem. It was here that the order of the Temple established the foundations of their spirituality. Marcel Pérès and Ensemble Organum have recorded a good number of marvellous discs of early music but 'Le chant des Templiers' album remains as one of their iconic marks in classical music.' Crucem sanctam' have a stronger feeling of a regular pulse than many chants, reflecting the physical, almost dance-like motions that conductor Marcel Pérès describes as being an integral part of the original performance of this repertoire.

This chant was performed by CIRMA/Ensemble Organum

Artistic director: Marcel Pérès

Hey, so, suffering is bad, right? Yeah, you know what? I’m going to go ahead and just assume that for some reason, starving to death and freezing to death and having a disease to death are all bad things. I’m not going to argue for that shit, but if you need some argument about whether those are bad or not, then fuck you, I guess.

The Perfect Run, by Maxime J. Durand.

Ryan "Quicksave" Romano is an eccentric adventurer with a strange power: he can create a save-point in time and redo his life whenever he dies. Arriving in New Rome, the glitzy capital of sin of a rebuilding Europe, he finds the city torn between mega-corporations, sponsored heroes, superpowered criminals, and true monsters. It's a time of chaos, where potions can grant the power to rule the world and dangers lurk everywhere.

Ryan only sees different routes; and from Hero to Villain, he has to try them all. Only then will he achieve his perfect ending... no matter how many loops it takes.
