Mr Linderman pays us a visit...

What was Mr Linderman doing in Brunei? Why was he at the Orient Express Concert? Are YOU on the LIST?

From Wikipedia:
Mr. Linderman is a reputed mobster who has ties to several of the main characters. He is an avid chef and collector of art and antiquities, and is revealed to have the ability to heal living things in the Heroes graphic novel series "War Buddies" and the episode ".07%". In person, he is persuasive, gentle and unfailingly polite. However, he has no qualms about extortion or assassination. He is even willing to allow the deaths of several million people in order to safeguard the human race.

In the graphic novel "War Buddies", it is revealed that Linderman served with the Petrellis' father in Vietnam, where the two were the only survivors of a mission to destroy a target called Au Co. Upon arriving at the target, Linderman healing a wounded Petrelli en-route, the pair discover an area of farmland with vast amounts of vegetation. They destroy the farm, which they surmise is being used to feed Viet Cong troops. They then realise that Au Co is actually the name of a young girl with the ability to make crops grow at an accelerated rate. Petrelli shoots Au Co, and prevents a horrified Linderman from healing her, a fact which at first leads Linderman to have utmost disdain for Petrelli. Years later, however, Linderman meets Petrelli again, and tells him that he now understands that sacrifices sometimes have to be made for the greater good.

In "Six Months Ago", Nathan Petrelli and his brother Peter discuss their father's connection to Linderman, and agree not to interfere with or expose that relationship, in spite of Nathan's political aspirations. After an incident where Nathan is driven off the road by a mysterious truck, which he believes to have been sent by Linderman, Nathan and Peter decide to instead report their father's relationship. When their father dies shortly before they are scheduled to testify against him, the brothers decide to end their mission to expose Linderman.

Nina the Bartina Pt II

My full review of Casino Royale as heard on the Jenny M Show on Kristal FM this morning: Daniel Craig is definitely a Bond for the ladies ‘Ard as, on the outside, but soft as on the inside Similar to his character XXXX in Layer Cake, or Dennis Waterman’s character Terry in that British gangster series “Minder”. At some points he actually reminded me of Bruce Willis in DieHard! Pecs similar to mine… if seen in certain light lah Still cannot beat Sean Connery in my book Highlights: Vertigo inducing chase in Madagascarian construction site The sarcastic exchange when he first meets Vesper Lynd (ooo ladies love it don’t they?) The “Stephanie Broadchest” line made me chuckle The poker game was intriguing but still can’t figure out Texas Hold’em Poker The scenery was gorgeous esp. Bahamas and Montenegro… WOW Lowlights: The Pout.. gets annoying after a while Bit slow esp. the bits where he’s playing lovey dovey with Vespa. Felt like I was watching Gone with the Wind at one stage… The ladie
