"Killzone 3" cannot possibly surprise people like its 2009 predecessor did, so there's no honest way to write about it that achieves the level of awe those lavishly complimentary "Killzone 2" reviews achieved.

But that isn't to imply "KZ3" underwhelms at all. It tops "KZ2" in almost every respect, and while the story continues to fall short of its potential, the game's handling of moment-to-moment action — seeking cover without changing perspective, a noticeable weight and impact to every action taken, a vicious depiction of warfare — still sets it apart from any other first-person shooter.

From wikipedia:
Juana de Ibarbourou, also known as Juana de América, (1892–1979) was a Uruguayan poet of Galician origin. She was one of the most popular poets of Spanish America. Her poetry, the earliest of which is often highly erotic, is notable for her identification of her feelings with nature around her.

She was born Juana Fernández Morales on March 8, 1895, in Melo, Cerro Largo, Uruguay. The date of Juana's birth is often given as March 8, 1895, but according to a local state civil registry signed by two witnesses, the year was actually 1892. Juana began studies at the José Pedro Varela school in 1899 and moved to a religious school the following year, and two public schools afterwards. In 1909, at 17 years old, she published a prose piece, "Derechos femeninos" (female rights), beginning a lifelong career as a prominent feminist.
