Modes:
* Descendant Battle (co-op arena): For anyone who doesn't know the Descendants are the mutated spaniards from UC1. In this mode players will fight wave after wave of mutants.I bet ND can think of bigger and badder mutants. At the end of the round Gabriel Roman in mutated form will come and raise heak. He will have as much life as 3 GAU guys.
* 2+2 Siege (Co-op Arena): In this mode 2 people are on one side protecting another area and the other 2 people are doing the same thing but on another area. Both 2 person teams have to complete before going to the next round. If the 1st is complete and the 2nd is still going the 1st can help out by killing enemies, but there is no purpose in being in the circle unless you want to. The 2 teams will have different color areas and names.
* 2+2 Gold Rush (Co-op Arena): Same Idea as 2+2 Siege but in Gold Rush standards.
* Keep Away: This is a mixture of Plunder and Turf War. There will be 3 treasures on the map, and 1 zone for each team. The players have to put the treasure in their zone to gain points. Players wouldn't have to be holding the treasure while in the zone, the treasure can just stay there. The other team has to score 300 points to win the match.
* Defend Him! (Co-op Arena): This mode will be a lot like Siege except the thing you have to protect is Camera Man Jeff (beat up and shot). The trick is that he will also wander around random places (like an enemy but with no target). His lifeline would be the same look the same as the player when their downed. Jeff will have 3 times as much health as a normal player but doesn't regin his health.. It's over when Jeff gets downed 3 times. The thing about when you revive him he only has 1/6 of his life. Heres is the cool part, there will be 12 Health Kits around the map in one game. When carrying the health kit it will be worn as a backpack so you can climb with it without throwing it.The players name will have a big + over it indicating he has a health pack. This mode is more advanced than other ones and it would be fun i think.
* Bump-Off (Co-op Arena): In this mode there will be one main enemy for each round. The enemy pick will be randomized but they will all be extremely tough even if they don't have any armor. The enemy you have to assassinate will have a gold chest. 50 enemies will be surrounding the main enemy for protection. But the ememy cannot be hurt by grenades, so you cant just throw a grenade and in the middle and it's over. At the end of round 5 the main enemy will be Leitenent Draza with a Desert 5. At round 10 it will be Zoran Lazzervic with a shotgun and a Wes 44.
* Assassination: One player on each team will be randomy chosen for there VIP. If the player dies, you lose the round. So a couple people will have to stay and protect their VIP, and others try and assassinate the other teams VIP. VIP's will have a red glow around their body. Same round rules as Elimination, except first team with 5 wins has the victory. 10 rounds max. 5 rounds for win, so everyone on team will be chosen.
* Last Stand: Rounds will include practically every enemy that was in Uncharted, like (UDF) Pirates, Mercenaries, Mutated Spaniards, (UAT) Resistance, Soldiers, Blue Guardians, and the Yeti. I would LOVE this mode, for it challenges and its diversity.
* Highwayman: Steal and capture the enemies treasure, from their base. (Credit to Odgeinator with idea, I just changed name)

Outdated copyright, libel and censorship laws threaten a free , fair
and safe internet. This issue also involves protecting/funding quality
and balance in media/arts.
Drastic changes to copyright, libel and censorship laws needed to maintain democracy in the internet age!
The internet user protection directive.
THE ISSUE: The copyright, censorship and libel laws throughout the
European Union were devised before the internet, and indeed from before
recorded media. In order to protect freedom, privacy and intellectual
property the very concepts have to be redefined. This problem has
caused the following effects:
a) Due to the internets non-geographical nature, libel and other
types of defamation legislation whether criminal or civil become almost
randomly defined. Not just on the jurisdiction either- similar
variation exists from court to court, as to the sentencing which can
often vary from community service to a hefty jail sentence for the same offence
Libel is interesting because it concerns both privacy and freedom of
information issues. On one hand, it is very important to protect the
right of a person or group to not have their social lives, reputations
or careers harmed by false or misleading stories.
On the other hand, we have the right to know of any misdemeanours
concerning public figures, powerful figures or enterprises that we
might be dealing with. And surely we dont want children (or young
minded adults) barred from talking about the latest playground rumour
about their favourite celebrities. Of course, this has huge
implications for the culture of Satire which lightens heavy
topics, as well as providing the entertainment that we have enjoyed
since Shakespeare and before. Do we want a world where truth is defined
by having the most expensive lawers?
This suggests that the only alternative to draconian censorship or
outright anarchy is a targeted enforcement of defamation legislation.
Such a move would involve limiting all forms of defamation prosecutions
and lawsuits to cases where profit, gain or malice could be reasonably
proven. As well as targeting the police and courtroom costs,
essentially a finite resource, this brings the definition of free
speech to the general public consensus. That is, it is acceptable to
use all forms of free speech, without knowingly harming others with
ones words.
b) Due again to the multi-jurisdictional nature of the internet, and
the lack of co-operation between government authorities and rival
software manufacturers, there is no coherent approach to the issue of
properly censoring potentially offensive material on the internet.
Fruitless effort is poured in to shutting down illegal or ethically questionableâ websites, FTP sites and chatrooms. What is
more important, and more achievable is preventing children and the
easily offended from accessing this material by accident or curiosity.
As internet content is less rigidly controlled than the film, print or
music industry, state censorship would be unworkable. However requiring
all content creators to self rate their material on the same
grounds as a DVD , could be achieved. Failure to rate correctly could
be made a criminal offence. Software could be designed with a
standardised content-rating system which would allow safer family
enjoyment and warning properly displayed if the content was of a nature
that could easily offend.
c) The enforcement and management of copyright law is impractical under
current legislation. Digital media makes copying and converting media a
matter of mouse clicks. All forms of a digital rights management
systems are crackable- almost all of the worlds governments
strictly forbid the commercial use of such sophisticated cipher
technology on national security grounds. Also, to severely restrict the
right of distribution of multimedia products is a violation of the
rights of independent media producers who wish to use the internet as a
showcase for there talent,. Perhaps even more importantly, make the
films and records that Hollywood don’t want you to watch or hear.
This amounts to a violation of the basic rights of free expression.
Producers of multimedia content of any kind need to be remunerated for
their efforts. It is not a cheap or time-free affair to produce music,
books or films even as a hobby. The people who make the TV and movies
we enjoy are morally entitled to a fair degree of contribution toward
financing their art from their audience.
There are two ways of improving the situation. Firstly, there needs to
be the replacement of copy protection to copyright watermarking.
Any uploads to the internet of copyright material would have to be
digitally watermarked with a copyright license. This would allow
media producers to tract their digital assets across the
internet. Any enterprise attempting to extract profit or gain out of
copyrighted work would be obliged to pay a reasonable surcharge.
However, copyright holders should only have the access to details of
private domestic internet account holders in the event of uploads of
copyright material. This is because it is impossible for a user to
distinguish legal from illegal download sites and servers. Nor until
the completion of the download is it possible to accurately determine
whether the material is copyright and which licence it is subject to.
It needs to be an offence to upload copyrighted material until one year
old onto the internet unless authorised to do so by the copyright
holder. One year because of the pace at which the online community
moves. Conventional copyright rules involves terms of between fifty and
one hundred years. This is impractical due to the nature of the sheer
volume of material available on line. It is most important to protect
the livelihoods of those currently active in the industry, as this
represents the media industry’s future. Other than that condition,
like libel, copyright enforcements against domestic internet users
should be considered only in cases of profit, gain or malice. Again,
this is not a case so much of a liberal approach, but a practically and
fairly enforceable one.
The issue of filesharing could be handled via a surcharge per gigabyte
of copyrighted, unlicenced media download, with a clearing house system
estimating from the details provided by watermarking and
reimbursing the copyright royalties to the appropriate holder. The ISP
would be surcharged by the copyright authorities as opposed to the end
user to protect privacy. This would allow the end user to choose an ISP
package that reflects their downloading habits. Those who download or
share copyright material would need to be on a higher tariff than those
who do not to cover the surcharge costs.
After thirty years of study, research and practical experience in Agroforestry (see previous item), Robert Hart established a small modelforest garden on his farm on Wenlock Edge, a model that could be repeated many thousands of times even by those who possess only small town gardens.
'The Forest Garden can enable a family to enjoy a considerable degree of self-sufficiency, with minimal labour'
The Forest Garden can enable a family to enjoy a considerable degree of self-sufficiency, with minimal labour, for some seven months of the year, providing the very best foods for building up positive health. It is a miniature reproduction of the self-maintaining eco-system of the natural forest, consisting entirely of fruit and nut trees and bushes, perennial and self-seeding vegetables and culinary and medicinal herbs.
Robert Hart wrote: 'It is no good waiting for the Powers-That-Be to take decisive action in the infinitely serious crisis caused by wholesale forest destruction, curbed and restricted as they are by blind prejudice and vested interests. Those who care, the ordinary people, should take action themselves to restore the earth's depleted forest cover, even though they may live in cities.'
Once established after about two years, the Forest Garden is self-perpetuating, self-fertilising, self-watering, self-mulching, self-weed-suppressing, self-pollinating, self-healing and highly resistant to pests and diseases. The only work required is pruning, controlling plants that seek to encroach on each other, and mulching with compost once a year, after the herbaceous plants die down in the late autumn. It is:
- Self-perpetuating, because all plants are perennial or active seed-seekers, such as borage and cress; self-fertilising, because deep-rooting trees, bushes and herbs draw upon minerals in the subsoil and make them available to their neighbours, and because the complex should include edible legumes such as lucerne, which inject nitrogen into the soil.
'Self-watering, because deep-rooting plants tap the spring-veins in the subsoil'
- Self-watering, because deep-rooting plants tap the spring-veins in the subsoil, even at times of drought, and pump up water for the benefit of the whole eco-system.
- Self-mulching and self-weed suppressing, because the scheme includes rapidly spreading herbs, such as the mints, and perennial vegetables, such as Good King Henry, which soon cover all the ground between the trees and bushes and thus create a permanent mulch. In fact, one main problem is to check their pervasiveness in the interests of less dominating plants.
- Self-pollinating, because all the fruit and nut trees are chosen to be mutually compatible for pollinating purposes - unless self-fertile - and also because the scheme includes many aromatic herbs and vegetables such as tree-onions and wild garlic, which undoubtedly exert curative influences on their neighbours.
- Resistant to pests and diseases, not only on account of the aromatic plants but also because any complex consisting of a wide spectrum of different plants does not allow the build up of epidemics such as is formed in monocultures.
The scheme is very highly intensive, making use of all seven 'storeys' found in the natural forest for the production of economic plants. These 'storeys' are:
- The 'canopy' formed by the tops of the higher trees;
- The planes of low-growing trees such as dwarf fruits;
- The 'shrub layer' comprising bush fruits;
- The herbaceous layer of herbs and vegetables;
- The ground layer of plants which spread horizontally rather than vertically, such as creeping thyme;
- The vertical layer occupied by climbing berries and vines;
- The 'rhizosphere', shade-tolerant root-plants.
In order to achieve maximum economy of space, these devices are employed:
(1) Some of the vegetables and herbs are grown on mounds, erected in accordance with the German Hugelkultur system.
(2) Full advantage is taken of fences for training climbing berries, such as the Japanese wineberry, and fan-trained plums.
(3) An apple hedge has been created according to the French Bouche-Thomas system, in which the trees (Allington Pippins) are planted diagonally so that they grow into each other.
(4) A hardy Canadian Brant vine is trained over the tool shed and another is to be trained up an old damson tree.
There is a 'family tree', comprising three compatible varieties of English eating apples, Sunset, Discovery and Laxton's Fortune, grafted on to a single root stock.
Conventional horticulturalists will object that food plants cannot achieve full productivity when planted in such close proximity to each other. But, as the natural forest and even the herbaceous flower border demonstrate, many plants thrive best when grown close to plants of other species. The reasons for this are contained in the science of plant symbiosis, about which very little research has been undertaken, since Ehrenfried Pfeiffer invented his system of 'sensitive crystallisation'. This is a study which must be extensively developed if Agroforestry is to attain its full potential.
'Conventional horticulturalists will object that food plants cannot achieve full productivity when planted in such close proximity to each other'
The Forest Garden's produce is health-promoting: just as in the 16th and 17th centuries, when England produced an amazing number of men of exceptional hardihood and genius, a standard article of diet was a salad, called 'sallet' or 'salgamundy', comprising a wide variety of cultivated and wild vegetables, fruits and herbs.
As for the Forest Garden helping restore the earth's forest cover, if ten trees were planted in a hundred thousand gardens, that would amount to a million trees. Quite a forest!
