In review, the Ford Transit Passenger Van may not be the best at everything, but it's definitely good enough to earn a spot on any shortlist.Prices do not include taxes, levies, fees, freight and delivery charges, insurance and license fees, as well as any other products or services not listed that may be available to you through your selected Mercedes-Benz retailer. Upgrading either of these features quickly pushes the price up to that of more premium rivals. The overall quality of the cabin is also subpar. Similarly, the XL trim has only the most basic infotainment suite as standard. For that, you'd be better of with a Sprinter from Mercedes. Though the ride is comfortable, it's not luxurious. Fuel economy is not bad, all things considered, so the long-term cost of ownership is easy enough to live with, although the EcoBoost can be a bit thirsty when you make use of the extra power. Both of the engines on offer can move the hefty van without too much fuss, though the EcoBoost is definitely better if you opt for the 15-seat layout. The fact that it gets a good helping of safety features at such a reasonable price point is just a nice bonus. ![]() Its high level of customizability and practicality makes the Ford Transit Passenger Van extremely capable, which is all that most people want in this segment. If you intend to transport 12 to 15 people, then the stronger EcoBoost V6 is the way to go, although it becomes rather thirsty when working hard. The smaller variants of the van do a better job of staying poised, and they also don't feel as sluggish when fully laden. Combined with supportive seating, this makes longer trips more bearable. The available intelligent all-wheel drive improves grip, but it can only do so much before physics takes over.Ī lot more attention is paid to comfort, and, for the most part, the suspension does a good job of soaking up bumps in the road. But that shouldn't encourage you to press on too much, as cornering at speed leads to some serious body roll. But, when the van picks up speed, the steering wheel gains some heft. The steering is light and accurate around town, improving otherwise poor maneuverability. The Transit Passenger Van aims to deliver an easy-to-manage and, more importantly, comfortable driving experience. ![]()

Mick Jagger: “That was the time of lots of acid. While some fans interpreted this as a statement on race relations, it’s far more likely that the rogue comma was the result of a clerical error, something not uncommon in the ’60s. On the single, there is a comma before the word “black” in the title, rendering it, “Paint It, Black.” This of course changes the context, implying that a person named “Black” is being implored to paint. This was used as the theme song for Tour Of Duty, a CBS show about the Vietnam War which ran from 1987-1989. We tried a guitar but you can’t bend it enough.” To get the right sound on ‘Paint It Black’ we found the sitar fitted perfectly. We had the sitars, we thought we’d try them out in the studio. They’re very brittle and you have to be careful how you handle them. Sitars are made out of watermelons or pumpkins or something smashed so they go hard. They make sitars and all sorts of Indian stuff. Keith Richards: “We were in Fiji for about three days. Jones made good television by balancing the instrument on his lap during appearances. On this track, Stones guitarist Brian Jones played the sitar, which was introduced to pop music by The Beatles on their 1965 song Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown). ![]() This new more upbeat rhythm was then used in the recording as a counterpoint to the morbid lyrics. Co-manager Eric Easton (who had been an organist), and Charlie Watts joined in and improvised a double-time drum pattern, echoing the rhythm heard in some Middle Eastern dances. When Bill Wyman began fooling around on the organ during the session doing a takeoff of their original as a spoof of music played at Jewish weddings. The Rolling Stones wrote this as a much slower, conventional soul song. “If I look hard enough into the setting sun, my love will laugh with me before the morning comes” – This refers to her in Heaven. “I could not foresee this thing happening to you” – It was an unexpected and sudden death. He talks about his heart being black because of his loss. “With flowers and my love both never to come back” – The flowers from the funeral and her in the hearse. “I see a line of cars and they’re all painted black” – The hearse and limos. The song seems to be about a lover who died: ![]() It’s not an original thought by any means. When asked at the time why he wrote a song about death, Mick Jagger replied: “I don’t know. There was no specific inspiration for the lyrics. This is written from the viewpoint of a person who is depressed he wants everything to turn black to match his mood. Every time this is used in a commercial or TV show, Klein’s estate (he died in 2009) gets paid. With Klein controlling their money, The Stones signed over the publishing rights to all the songs they wrote up to 1969. In 1965, The Stones hired him and signed a deal they would later regret. The Stones former manager Allen Klein owned the publishing rights to this song. The song peaked at #1 in the Billboard 100, #1 in Canada, #1 in the UK, and #4 in New Zealand in 1966. After Brian left they played mostly blues-rock along with a little reggae-influenced music later on. Along with some blues they ventured into pop, rock, and a bit of psychedelia. The Stones were more adventurous in the mid-sixties. Whatever song they wrote, Jones would play a different instrument to color the song. Brian Jones plays a sitar on this record. It’s menacing with a dash of eastern influence. Of all of the Rolling Stones riffs…this one is one of the most memorable. ![]() ![]() There aren’t any firm plans in place as such, but the technology is there if it becomes viable from a market standpoint.Īnd how much could an 8K Blu-ray disc cost? “It's going to be up to the rights holder as to what they decide that it's worth,” says Doughty. We’re told that QuVIS’s proprietary software could run on a dedicated player supporting 8K – such as the new PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles, which have yet to make much use of their 8K capability – as well as Windows, Mac, and Linux, for those with 8K monitors. For us, we’re just saying that we can do it.” Could you put on a Blu-ray disc and send it out? Maybe – but I don’t know that this is going to be the savior of Blu-ray. “What we’re trying to determine is if distribution of 8K Blu-rays is worthwhile pursuing,” says Doughty. Is the humble Blu-ray player on its way out? (Image credit: Sony) And that's why we can compress this data down to such low levels.”īecause of this, Doughty is adamant that 8K Blu-rays are possible, and that the technology is already here – even if the industry doesn’t end up pursuing it. So we don't process that, and remove all the noise, and only process what remains, which is visible to us. Doughty tells us that “There's a whole lot in the blue wavelength range that is outside of human acuity. QuVIS’s own video compression technology is able to discard non-visible wavelengths from 8K video content before compression, bringing down file sizes and meaning that even large 8K films can be fit onto Blu-ray discs. We spoke to Keith Doughty at QuVIS, a technology company specializing in large-scale data transfer and compression, and which designed the first 2K, 4K, and 3D digital cinema recorders – having collaborated with the likes of Pixar and Sony in the onward march of cinematic technologies over the years. There’s definitely a use case for 8K Blu-ray discs, then – but what are the obstacles to this happening? See you later, data As 8K content becomes more widespread, this problem will only increase. ![]() That’s not to mention the amount of time needed to do a dedicated download of an 8K movie – similarly to the long wait times for downloading massive PC games like Warzone or Red Dead Redemption 2. One could argue that the increased detail of 8K makes an even stronger case for having an offline media player and disc sources, given the massive uptick in internet download speeds and data transfer needed to stream 8K resolution video second by second – around 50mb/s for stable quality. There are more 8K TVs than ever – but what does that mean for Blu-ray players?

Additionally, some outfits look drastically different depending on gender.ĭuring character creation, the player may choose from one of four different backstories. The game contains gender-locked content, such as single-sex schools and the marriage system (same-sex marriage is not possible in the game). The character's gender cannot be changed after character creation. Two Makeover Certificates can be obtained for free from quests. The character's face can be changed later by purchasing a Makeover Certificate from the game's Cash Shop at the cost of 30 Gold. The item costs 99 Gold, which can only be obtained by spending real money. The Name Change Document can be purchased from the game's Cash Shop.

Great Schools do not have a graduation option, so joining a Faction can be a great way to postpone the decision without needing to worry about any lack of progression.

Each school will give the player access to a different set of Martial Arts Skills and Internal Skills. The character can only be an active member of one school at a time. Some of the schools are gender-locked, so players should decide their path carefully during character creation. The player must choose one of ten available Great Schools. When deleting a character, there is a 48-hour protection period in which the character can be reclaimed only after it, a new character can be created. This adds weight to the decisions, and is a unique and intentional feature of Age of Wushu. This is not a choice that should be made lightly as the player can only have one character per account. In Age of Wushu the first thing the player must do is create a character. As one of the only remaining Wuxia-inspired MMOs left, Age of Wushu provides a very unique experience compared to other games. The game is still getting updates and new content, but not very often.
