The Plot (video game)

The Plot is a video game by Odin Computer Graphics released in 1988 for the Amstrad CPC and Sinclair Spectrum. It is the last game by Odin to be released.

Overview

The game is a 2D flip-screen platformer. It is a parody of the Gunpowder Plot, with the player taking the role of Guy Fawkes in his attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament. He must search the vaults beneath Parliament collecting sticks of dynamite to prepare the bomb. Fireworks can also be collected for points and special functions.

When enough sticks of dynamite have been collected, the special firework must be taken to the start screen and lit to complete the game.

Reception

The Plot (band)

The Plot was a heavy rock band formed in 2003 by bassist Pete Way and his long-time friend, guitarist Michael Schenker. The two wanted to form a band like UFO again and asked Phil Mogg and Andy Parker to regroup with them, but tension was still fiery between the ex-bandmates, although Way, Schenker and Mogg had been involved in recording as UFO for the album Sharks in 2002. So instead, Way and Schenker recruited drummer Jeff Martin. This band released one album, also entitled The Plot.

"We decided to release The Plot at this time for several reasons. A bootleg of The Plot was becoming very available throughout the world. We wanted to get the proper version out there before it was too late. It is great finally see this record released. Michael and I are very proud of it," Way said in an interview about his reunion with Schenker.

The Plot is an album by Italian jazz trumpeter and composer Enrico Rava recorded in 1976 and released on the ECM label.

4 P.M. (group)

4 P.M. (For Positive Music) is an American male R&B group best known for their cover version of "Sukiyaki", which peaked at number 8 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in February 1995.

4 P.M. is an acronym meaning 'For Positive Music' meaning the band's music would not contain explicit lyrics, does not promote violence, and does not degrade women. The band has toured worldwide and remains popular, most notably in Japan. The group was started in 1991 in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland by brothers Roberto Pena, Jr. and Reney (Ray) Pena with Larry McFarland and Martiz Ware. They were originally known as IV Real,and played local talent shows.

After a 1994 performance at a record release party, they were signed by Next Plateau Records and moved to New York City. Their debut album, Now's the Time, which peaked at #96 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, included a cover version of Kyu Sakamoto's 1960s hit "Sukiyaki". The group's version of "Sukiyaki" peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and was certified gold in 1995. It also reached the top 5 in Australia and New Zealand.Now's the Time earned gold status in Canada and Japan, and went platinum in Australia.

12-hour clock

The 12-hour clock is a time convention in which the 24 hours of the day are divided into two periods:a.m. (from the Latin ante meridiem, meaning "before midday") and p.m. (post meridiem, "after midday"). Each period consists of 12 hours numbered: 12 (acting as zero),1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. The 24 hour/day cycle starts at 12 midnight (often indicated as 12 a.m.), runs through 12 noon (often indicated as 12 p.m.), and continues to the midnight at the end of the day.

The 12-hour clock was developed over time from the mid-second millennium BC to the 16th century AD.

History and use

The natural day/night division of a calendar day forms the fundamental basis as to why each day is split into two cycles. Originally these were one cycle which could be tracked by the position of the Sun (day) followed by one cycle which could be tracked by the Moon and stars (night). This would eventually evolve into the two 12-hour periods that started at midnight (a.m.) and noon (p.m.) which are used today. Noon itself is rarely abbreviated today, but if it is, it is denoted M.
