Xtul-new band for the modern age

We are inspired by the very fabric of existence which you humans seem intent on pissing into infinity. Xtul is the beginning of the end, or at least the end of the beginning. A new age in a very real sense.
We aim to change the world by whatever means necessary. Read my lips human. By ANY means necessary
Future plans? Nothing less than the destruction of the Capitalist system, the end of all things, bringing forth a multitude of seasoned warriors to defeat the false Gods and usher in a season of something or other.

TONY KENNETH LUCAS INTERVIEWED BY MARK ANTONY RAINES - GHOSTMAN

The thing that inspired me was the quest for knowledge, to touch just a hint of understanding of what we often call the unknown. I approach Cryptozoology differently than allot of others,I'm more of a person who doesn't try to figure out what the creature is but why it is there. Everything in Nature has a reason for what it does and where it is and if you can figure that out it gives you a starting point to start looking.It also allows you to find out. My Aims are to discover as much as possible about these animals. where they live and why they live there. I would like to get a scientific team together for greater study of the phenomena and the equipment I so desperately need but no one funds fringe science. I have two books in the offing as there have been none written exclusively on New Zealand Cryptids and people ask for articles, blogs and other extras which keep me busy.what kind of organism you are dealing possibly with.as for the future - The books are a high priority and the NZ CFZ has gone into collaboration with Auckland Paranormal on a consolatory capacity, so that should bring some interesting developments.And the research and articles continue on.....

Open auditions for two roles in the new films were held in the UK and Ireland last November.

It has not been confirmed whether the new cast came from the auditions, but none of them are complete unknowns and all have previous experience on screen.
No announcement has been made about the specific parts each of the cast members will play.
Episode VII will be the fifth Star Wars movie to to be shot in the UK.
The original trilogy was filmed at Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire, while prequel The Phantom Menace began shooting on 26 June 1997 at Leavesden Studios in Hertfordshire.

The new film is due in cinemas on 18 December 2015.

Southend Pier

Southend Pier

Details

If you walk along Southend-on-Sea's High Street, towards the sea, your eye will be drawn in a straight line towards the longest pleasure Pier in the world. Standing for over a century it extends 2.158 kilometres (1.341 miles) into the Thames Estuary, and is a well-loved and recognised symbol of Southend and the pleasures of the English seaside. Sir John Betjeman once said, "The Pier is Southend, Southend is the Pier" and it's as true today as it was when it first welcomed visitors all those years ago.

With truly stunning 360 degree views all year round, Southend Pier is the perfect place to go for a taste of the invigorating fresh air, and experience the freedom of the sea or to simply spend the day fishing at Southend pier.

At the Pier Head you can visit the active RNLI station and gift shop, relax and take in the fantastic views from the superb sun-deck or stop by The Royal Pavilion, which dominates much of the Pier Head and provides the perfect place for an afternoon tea in the inhouse café. The Pavilion also plays host to a number of fantastic events throughout the year, including Jazz and Comedy Festivals, plays, concerts, exhibitions and much more.

Throughout the year Southend on Sea Pier plays host to a number of fantastic events, from live music and puppetry, to spooktacular Halloween fun and even a visit from Santa, as well as visiting Tall Ships, which offer unique trips and a taste of the nautical life
