	D/Central Review: Nostromo
		Speaking of mood, Nostromo's is unmatched - not even the venerable Vampyro has a better atmosphere or theme.
		Nostromo's structure is one of the most convoluted, confusing, vertigo-inducing balls of thread I've ever seen in Descent.

		All the characters in Nostromo are engaged in the intensely political acts carrying the plot forward.
		The eponymous hero of Nostromo is a throwback to ages dead and lamented when vain men of action, uncomplicated by moral scruples, were heralded; when "courage was taken for granted" and scheming to the beneficent ends of the clan was prized.
		In Nostromo, a Jefferson-like figure writes down a history of Costaguana titled "50 Years of Misrule." The project is ill-fated and never makes it to publication, and the recounting of Costaguana's mass suffering, by the one man who was in any position to tell it, is lost to posterity.

	Nostromo (1996)
		For Nostromo (Claudio Amendola), the incorruptible head of the local dockworkers, a viable mine means steady employment for his men, enabling him to honor his promise to innkeeper Teresa Viola (Claudia Cardinale) that he will marry her eldest daughter and look after her youngest.
		But for Dr. Monygham (Albert Finney), the cynical survivor of years of brutal tyranny, the return of the silver can only mean a new cycle of corruption and violence, a belief that proves prophetic as Costaguana erupts in civil war initiated by rival warlords determined to seize the mine and its riches.
		And when Nostromo returns to Sulaco as the heroic savior of his country, he is burdened by guilt and a terrible secret which forever alters the fates of everyone touched and tainted by the silver mine

	Nostromo by Joseph Conrad. Search, Read, Study, Discuss.
		Conrad's foresight and his ability to pluck the human adventure from complex historical circumstances were such that his greatest novel, Nostromo -- though nearly one hundred years old -- says as much about today's Latin America as any of the finest recent accounts of that region's turbulent political life.
		Insistently dramatic in its storytelling, spectacular in its recreation of the subtropical landscape, this picture of an insurrectionary society and the opportunities it provides for moral corruption gleams on every page with its author's dry, undeceived, impeccable intelligence.
		He (Nostromo) is not a perfect character, but that's one of the things that makes him so easy to relate to....

		I don’t consider ‘The Aliens Colonial Marines Technical Manual’ to be a canonical source in the Alien universe, however it is chock full of reasonable evidence that does not contradict the films (in most cases) and should therefore be regarded as a reliable sourcebook.
		If we use the Nostromo ‘4 metres per deck rule’, we would have to deduct 30 metres from the height to compensate for the lower comms antenna, plus make allowances for extra hull plating, we would have approximately 12 decks.
		The distance from the Nostromo’s LZ to the Derelict was “just under 2000 metres” meaning Dallas, Kane and Lambert walked to the other side of the planet.

		the nostromo will gladdly be running 5 different macros at the same time if your cat takes a liking to the pad.
		Liq's way has advantages, but if all you want is to stop macros dead, you can map a key on the nostromo to macros off (this is the third option from the bottom when you left click on a key in the profile editor).
		The nostromo 50/52 is such a perfect keyboard replacement I highly recommend it even if you have ZERO interest in it for macros.

		The popularity of the keyboard and mouse for game playing has been recognised by many and in this review I am going to be looking at two peripherals from Belkin designed to build and improve upon the mouse-keyboard combination.
		The Nostromo n30 retails at $45.99USD from Belkin.
		This SpeedPad is designed to replace your keyboard under your left hand - the conventional keyboard wasn't designed to be used in the way gamers do (with one hand on the WASD keys) and so it seems sensible that a one-handed replacement for this section of your keyboard could be very useful.

		One of the things that has kept me away from other game pads is that the nostromo's D-pad is the most intuitive movement system available.
