Acting coaching is a process that helps an actor identify their strengths and weaknesses and then works on ways to improve their performance by adopting new techniques, adopting new philosophies on acting, or by addressing psychological issues that may be holding them back. One of the main benefits of hiring an acting coach is that it provides you with a fresh perspective, and someone who has no bias towards you or your work. An acting coach will observe your every move and every word, and look for ways you can improve your craft. Acting coaches are not there to tell you how to act, but rather how to discover it for yourself. It Helps To Improve Your Performance Coaching helps to improve your performance as an actor by helping you focus on the character and the story. A great coach li

Jet2.com provides a direct service from Manchester Airport to Nice, five days a week.
Flights start from 29.99 per person one way, including all taxes.
Being an 'international woman of mystery' is the perfect role for any gal who visits the South of France. The wide brimmed hat, the stole swept across bare, bronzed shoulders such is the fantasy. The reality is a Jet 2 flight Flight from Manchester to Nice with Pringles and Cup-A-Soup on the in-flight menu.
But in spite of this lack of je ne sais quoi, a relaxing flight of around two and a half hours was followed by a swift transfer to Le Mas Candille a deliciously discreet hotel nestling in the countryside at Mougins, where I was relishing trying out my new, glam role.
Alas! I was beaten to it because a secret celeb had chosen one of the suites as a hideway for a romantic tryst with her new lover. Reputedly Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez. Still, the choice of this Relais & Chteaux hotel proved that, yes indeed it was the perfect place to live out a French fantasy.
After sipping pink champagne in a deluxe room with a mountain view, done out with antique furniture and ultra-comfortable four-poster bed, I made my way down to the terrace bathed in pink Provencale light for a superb meal created by the Le Mas Candille local 'chef celbre' Serge Gouloums.
The food is of course out of this world but so is too the view, with its lashings of countryside garnished with a very dramatic sunset.
A small village filled with ateliers and art galleries is a mere 10 minutes stroll away but Le Mougins is amongst the very best, with dishes on the menu that are simply divine. From the signature dish of Candill foi gras tatin with Armagnac to scallop tartare flavoured with almond milk. These are indeed concoctions perfectly suited to the palate of an international woman of mystery.
The Mas Candille has a beautiful Susheido spa to soothe away any doubts about anything, including one's poor attempt at creating a fragrance.
And further tranquillity was to be discovered a 20 minute boat trip away from nearby Cannes to the lush isle of Saint Honorat, where the Cistercian monks brew exquisite wine and where you can casually dine overlooking the dazzling blue Mediterranean at La Tonelle, which is jointly managed by the monks of the Lrins abbey and Marc Dussoulier. This really is living the fantasy, as light sparkles on pretty pink rose wine and plucked from the menu are delights such as cuttlefish, sea bream, shrimp, salmon and fabulous seafood, pasta.
The Discovering Mediterranean market and cuisine package at Les Mas Candille is priced at 390 per person for a 2 night stay.

Jennifer Lopez ended her three year Vegas residency, thanked Diddy and A. Rod
Alex Rodriguez, Jennifer Lopez, P. Diddy
They say all good things must come to an end. On Saturday night, Jennifer Lopez wrapped up her Las Vegas residency, performing the last of her All I Have shows at the Zappos Theater at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.
The last show was a star-studded affair. An attendee told E! News that the singer "shouted out various celebrities during a portion of the show," and there were plenty to choose from. In the audience were Kobe Bryant, Anthony Anderson, Ashley Graham and Tiffany Haddish. Ja Rule and LL Cool joined J-L o on stage for "All I Have." Jennifer also mentioned that her former boyfriend Diddy, whom she dated for two years up until February 2001, was in the house.
At the end of the show, while she was performing a cover of "I Hope You Dance," she was joined onstage by her dancers and her family, including boyfriend Alex Rodriguez. A visibly emotional Jennifer told the assembled group that, "You guys are amazing," and added, "I saw this quote today that said, 'How lucky am I to have something that's so difficult to say goodbye to?'" She then dedicated the song "Smile" to them, as seen in this clip posted to Instagram.

For the after party at Mr. Chow's at Caesars Palace, Jennifer changed into a pink sequined Tom Ford bodysuit and Alex went matchy-matchy in a pink button-down shirt and matching pants. Photographers spotted Jennifer and Diddy hugging and engaging in friendly chit-chat. Alex was seen shaking hands with the rapper as well. VIPs from the concert were also in attendance, along with celebs such as Vanessa Hudgens, Gayle King, and Tyson Beckford.
Jennifer deserved a great party, as she had ticket sales in excess of $100 million over the course of her three year run. So, what's next? Shades of Blue is done. Vegas is done. Is it time for Jennifer to start the next chapter of her life as Mrs. Rodriguez? It seems time will have to tell.
Feeling like superwoman after the show tonight! When I started this run I thought omg 15 shows in 27 days that's a lot… but I made a promise to myself that instead of letting it wear me down I would be even stronger at the end of it…I will work out and be in the best shape of my life… There were moments I was tired and there was travel and I had to fit in my workouts where I could… but here we are with only 3 shows left!! And I am having so many emotions but mostly just feeling strong, happy and grateful!!! #allihavefinal15 #3showstogo #we'renotdoneyet #letsgoooo #makepromisestoyourselfandkeepthem @phvegas

Seeing how great she looks is motivating me to hit the gym this morning. She makes middle age look fantastic!
Rhys says:
I thought that performing like she does is already quite a workout! I'd be dead if I had to dance on stage all wveiand them get up to go to the gym :/
Wow. It's been 3 years already?! Congratulations to her. Time really flies.
Louise177 says:
When did Jennifer get those muscles? She and Diddy have remained friends or at least cordial even after the breakup. Whenever they are at the same they always hug and talk. I was surprised that so many outlets tried to make it a scandal. Maybe Jennifer has other tv shows and movies lined up but I think she'll take a break and maybe do another Vegas residency.

While CE is adapting the greatest change in engineering ecosystem and is on the verge of adding the primary feather in its crown, light, the true essence of our existence has found its shelter under nano-particle confinement by manipulating the properties of surface plasmon (SP) and topological insulators (TI). Simply speaking, a new form of light has been speculated and gone under review which has been weaved with a single electron, forming a hybrid of combined properties.
A group of scientists at Imperial College London has envisioned a new form of light through a single-electron induced SPs, popularly an electron coupled with light, in a nano-particle topological insulator. According to the group, the combo can realize photonic circuits and helps researchers to study quantum physical phenomena, plasmonics and cavity electrodynamics.
The team explains, generally, light has been seen to interact with the whole host of electrons present over the surface. However, with the newly designed model, researchers have found that light could be directed to interact with a single electron in certain types of a class of materials known as topological insulators.
Following our basic knowledge, we know that light travels in a straight line. But in some conditions, like this one, when the properties of the electron and light is merged together light follows the surface, traces its path where it has been localized. In a lab-grown prototype the team has chosen the target surface to provide the general foundation for interaction which was selected to be a nano-particle, small sphere below 0.00000001 metres in diameter, composed of TIs.
The demonstration helped them note the satisfactory result that implied, photons and electron could interchange some informations that ultimately strengthen the offspring. Very unlikely, light followed a circular trajectory by following electrons, on the other hand electrons did not hesitate to mimic some of light's intellectual properties.
Casually, when electrons pass through electrical circuits they stop their journey if they hit a defect. Scientists confirmed that this is not followed in the latest case. Although there was imperfection in the nano-particle's skin the electrons still traveled without interruption. To the team, the new found results will work as a breakthrough in photonics circuitry and related discipline. The research has been published in Journal Nature.


At least 14 people were taken to hospital following the violence, according to national daily HLN.be. The Belgian government which assumed power just a month ago has caused unrest with promises to raise the retirement age, cancel a wage rise in line with inflation and cut health and social security benefits – moves that undermine the country's welfare state.
People supporting the march have said that the austerity cuts only target workers while unfairly letting businesses off the hook. The government is intending, through the cuts, to save some 11 billion euros ($13.8 billion). "The signal is clear. People are angry, livid. This government's policies are totally unbalanced," ACV union chief Marc Leemans told Reuters.
More protests are planned, including weekly regional strikes from November 24 and a national strike for December 15. The mass-action is also seeing a work slowdown which is having a detrimental effect on public institutions such as schools and post offices, as well as the ports of Antrwerp and Zeebrugge.
"Workers rights have been cut – not only the wages but the rights and the capacity to continue to know what are the main guidelines of the European societies. Because now I think we don't know it anymore," Marisa Matias of the Confederal Group of the European United Left told RT.


Place of Death: St. Charles, Missouri, U.S.
Chuck Berry was an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He was one of the founders of rock and roll music.
Chuck was the son of Martha Bell (Banks) and Henry William Berry. He was married to Themetta Suggs, with whom he had four children.
Chuck's paternal grandfather was named William Berry. William was born in Missouri.
Chuck's paternal grandmother was Lucinda Johnson (the daughter of John Johnson and Cecilia Irving Wolfolk). Lucinda was born in Kentucky.
Chuck's maternal grandfather was Charles Henry Banks (the son of Moses Banks and Susan Tanner). Chuck's grandfather Chuck was born in Louisiana.
Chuck's maternal grandmother was named Lula Thomas. Lula was born in Mississippi.
Chuck Berry has English and Welsh ancestry. Richard Gregory (1644-1704) born in England and died in Virginia was Chuck's 7th great-grandfather. Ann Samuel (1730) born in Wales died in Maryland was 5th great-grandmother. Chuck Berry also has other documented lineages I found that leads back to England and Wales. Say if you need help finding directly back to these ancestors.
We don't even know his great-great-grandparents, so how do you know any of those distant ancestors? His white ancestry would probably start more recently than the 1600s.
Chuck stated in his autobiography that he had both white (English, if I remember correctly) and Native American ancestry.
No, he doesn't. What makes you say that?
According to this site, Berry grew up in a family proud of its African American and Native American ancestry.
No offense, chuck berry is black.So who else would they get to play him?
But she passed her audition (a few weeks ago) brilliantly.
I thought he is white!

Methadone mimics many of the effects of opiates such as heroin.
Since about 1990, GHB (gamma hydroxybutyrate) has been abused in the U.S. for its euphoric, sedative, and anabolic (body building) effects. It is a central nervous system depressant that was widely available over-the-counter in health food stores during the 1980s and until 1992.
Crystal meth effects are similar to those of cocaine but with more power and intensity.

Input-dependent wave propagations in asymmetric cellular automata: Possible behaviors of feed-forward loop in biological reaction network
Akinori Awazu
Dynamical aspects of the asymmetric cellular automata were in- vestigated to consider the signaling processes in biological systems. As a meta- model of the cascade of feed-forward loop type network motifs in biological reaction networks, we consider the one dimensional asymmetric cellular au- tomata where the state of each cell is controlled by a trio of cells, the cell itself, the nearest upstream cell and the next nearest upstream cell. Through the systematic simulations, some novel input-dependent wave propagations were found in certain asymmetric CA, which may be useful for the signaling pro- cesses like the distinction, the filtering and the memory of external stimuli.

The effect of patterns of infectiousness on epidemic size
Luis F. Gordillo, Stephen A. Marion and Priscilla E. Greenwood
In the course of an infectious disease in a population, each in fected individual presents a different pattern of progress through the disease, producing a corresponding pattern of infectiousness. We postulate a stochastic infectiousness process for each individual with an almost surely finite integral, or total infectiousness. Individuals also have different contact rates. We show that the distribution of the final epidemic size depends only on the contact rates and the integrated infectiousness. As a particular case, zero infectiousness on an initial time interval corresponds to a period of latency, which does not affect the final epidemic size in general stochastic and deterministic epidemic models, as is well known from the literature.

Existence of multiple-stable equilibria for a multi-drug-resistant model of mycobacterium tuberculosis
Abba B. Gumel and Baojun Song
The resurgence of multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis in some parts of Europe and North America calls for a mathematical study to assess the impact of the emergence and spread of such strain on the global effort to effectively control the burden of tuberculosis. This paper presents a deterministic compartmental model for the transmission dynamics of two strains of tubercu- losis, a drug-sensitive (wild) one and a multi-drug-resistant strain. The model allows for the assessment of the treatment of people infected with the wild strain. The qualitative analysis of the model reveals the following. The model has a disease-free equilibrium, which is locally asymptotically stable if a cer- tain threshold, known as the effective reproduction number, is less than unity. Further, the model undergoes a backward bifurcation, where the disease-free equilibrium coexists with a stable endemic equilibrium. One of the main nov- elties of this study is the numerical illustration of tri-stable equilibria, where the disease-free equilibrium coexists with two stable endemic equilibrium when the aforementioned threshold is less than unity, and a bi-stable setup, involving two stable endemic equilibria, when the effective reproduction number is greater than one. This, to our knowledge, is the first time such dynamical features have been observed in TB dynamics. Finally, it is shown that the backward bifurcation phenomenon in this model arises due to the exogenous re-infection property of tuberculosis.

Mathematical analysis of a HIV model with frequency dependence and viral diversity
Shingo Iwami, Shinji Nakaoka and Yasuhiro Takeuchi
We consider the effect of viral diversity on the human immune sys- tem with the frequency dependent proliferation rate of CTLs and the elimina- tion rate of infected cells by CTLs. The model has very complex mathematical structures such as limit cycle, quasi-periodic attractors, chaotic attractors, and so on. To understand the complexity we investigate the global behavior of the model and demonstrate the existence and stability conditions of the equilibria. Further we give some theoretical considerations obtained by our mathematical model to HIV infection.

Modelling the immunopathogenesis of HIV-1 infection and the effect of multidrug therapy: The role of fusion inhibitors in HAART
There is currently tremendous effort being directed at developing potent, highly active antiretroviral therapies that can effectively control HIV- 1 infection without the need for continuous, lifelong use of these drugs. In the ongoing search for powerful antiretroviral agents that can affect sustained control for HIV infection, mathematical models can help in assessing both the correlates of protective immunity and the clinical role of a given drug regimen as well as in understanding the efficacy of drug therapies administered at different stages of the disease. In this study, we develop a new mathematical model of the immuno-pathogenesis of HIV-1 infection, which we use to assess virological responses to both intracellular and extracellular antiretroviral drugs. We first develop a basic mathematical model of the immuno-pathogenesis of HIV-1 infection that incorporates three distinct stages in the infection cycle of HIV-1: entry of HIV-1 into the cytoplasm of CD4+ T cells, transcription of HIV-1 RNA to DNA within CD4+ T cells, and production of HIV-1 viral particles within CD4+ T cells. Then we extend the basic model to incorporate the effect of three major categories of anti-HIV-1 drugs: fusion/entry inhibitors (FIs), reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs), and protease inhibitors (PIs). Model analysis establishes that the actual drug efficacy of FIs, γ and of PIs, κ is the same as their effective efficacies while the effective drug efficacy for the RTIs, γ εis dependent on the rate of transcription of the HIV-1 RNA to DNA, and the lifespan of infected CD4+ T cells where virions have only entered the cytoplasm and that this effective efficacy is less than the actual efficacy, ε. Our studies suggest that, of the three anti-HIV drug categories (FIs, RTIs, and PIs), any drug combination of two drugs that includes RTIs is the weakest in the control of HIV-1 infection.

A deterministic model of schistosomiasis with spatial structure
Fabio Augusto Milner and Ruijun Zhao
It has been observed in several settings that schistosomiasis is less prevalent in segments of river with fast current than in those with slow current. Some believe that this can be attributed to flush-away of intermediate host snails. However, free-swimming parasite larvae are very active in searching for suitable hosts, which indicates that the flush-away of larvae may also be very important. In this paper, the authors establish a model with spatial structure that characterizes the density change of parasites following the flush-away of larvae. It is shown that the reproductive number, which is an indicator of prevalence of parasitism, is a decreasing function of the river current velocity. Moreover, numerical simulations suggest that the mean parasite load is low when the velocity of river current flow is sufficiently high.

Controlling the spread of avian bird flu has become a challenging tasks for Indian agriculture and health administrators. After the first evidence and control of the virus in 2006, the virus attacked five states by January 2008. Based on the evidence of rapid spread of the avian bird flu type H5N1 among the Indian states of Maharashtra, Manipur, andWest Bengal, and in the partially affected states of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, a model is developed to understand the spread of the virus among birds and the effect of control measures on the dynamics of its spread. We predict that, in the absence of control measures, the total number of infected birds in West Bengal within ten and twenty days after initial discovery of infection were 780,000 and 2.1 million, respectively. When interventions are introduced, these values would have ranged from 65,000 to 225,000 after ten days and from 16,000 to 190,000 after twenty days. We show that the farm and market birds constitute the major proportion of total infected birds, followed by domestic birds and wild birds in West Bengal, where a severe epidemic hit recently. Culling 600,000 birds in ten days might have reduced the current epidemic before it spread extensively. Further studies on appropriate transmission parameters, contact rates of birds, population sizes of poultry and farms are helpful for planning.

Biological control of the chemostat with nonmonotonic response and different removal rates
Alain Rapaport and Jérôme Harmand
We show the global stabilization of the chemostat with nonmonotonic growth, adding a new species as a ''biological'' control, in presence of different removal rates for each species. This result is obtained by an extension of the Competitive Exclusion Principle in the chemostat, for the case of two species with different removal rates and at least one nonmonotonic response.

An extension of the Beretta-Kuang model of viral diseases
Ivo Siekmann, Horst Malchow and Ezio Venturino
A model for the complete life cycle of marine viruses is presented. The Beretta-Kuang model introduces an explicit equation for viral particles but the replication process of viral particles in their hosts is not considered. The extended model keeps the structure of the original model. This makes it possible to estimate the growth parameters of the viruses for a given parametrisation of the Beretta-Kuang model.

Stabilization due to predator interference: comparison of different analysis approaches
G.A.K. van Voorn, D. Stiefs, T. Gross, B. W. Kooi, Ulrike Feudel and S.A.L.M. Kooijman
We study the influence of the particular form of the functional response in two-dimensional predator-prey models with respect to the stability of the nontrivial equilibrium. This equilibrium is stable between its appearance at a transcritical bifurcation and its destabilization at a Hopf bifurcation, giving rise to periodic behavior. Based on local bifurcation analysis, we introduce a classification of stabilizing effects. The classical Rosenzweig-MacArthur model can be classified as weakly stabilizing, undergoing the paradox of enrichment, while the well known Beddington-DeAngelis model can be classified as strongly stabilizing. Under certain conditions we obtain a complete stabilization, resulting in an avoidance of limit cycles. Both models, in their conventional formulation, are compared to a generalized, steady-state independent two-dimensional version of these models, based on a previously developed normalization method. We show explicitly how conventional and generalized models are related and how to interpret the results from the rather abstract stability analysis of generalized models.

Calculation of $R_0$ for age-of-infection models
Christine K. Yang and Fred Brauer
We consider age-of-infection epidemic models to describe multiple- stage epidemic models, including treatment. We derive an expression for the basic reproduction number $R_0$ in terms of the distributions of periods of stay in the various compartments. We find that, in the model without treatment, $R_0$ depends only on the mean periods in compartments, and not on the form of the distributions. In treatment models, $R_0$ depends on the form of the dis- tributions of stay in infective compartments from which members are removed for treatment, but the dependence for treatment compartments is only on the mean stay in the compartments. The results give a considerable simplification in the calculation of the basic reproduction number.

The Deception
Disoriented after the escape from the Visitors' forced labor camp, Robin wanders aimlessly, trying to stay out of the sight of Visitor patrols until she flags down a motorcyclist – who happens to be Kyle Bates, Nathan Bates' son, also a recent escapee from the same camp. He offers to give Robin a ride to her father's ranch, but their trip is detoured when they witness the crash of a jet fighter in the California desert. The pilot manages to eject, but is dying of his injuries before he lands. With his last breath, he hands Kyle a pouch with instructions to deliver it to the resistance. Kyle tracks down Donovan and gives it to him, but Kyle's connection to Nathan Bates earns him immediate suspicion from Ham Tyler. The message lists coordinates for a meeting where Donovan is expected to hand Elizabeth off to the New York resistance for her own safety. But on his way home, Donovan spots his son Sean, who has been captured by the Visitors. Donovan himself is captured and drugged, and wakes up in a room with Sean and Julie nearby, telling him that the war to free Earth has been won.

Notes: Though the computer in Julie's office appears to be an IBM PC variant, its display, when shown in close-up, was generated by an Apple II computer in text mode. Even though Robin and Kyle were both prisoners in the Visitors' work camp in Breakout, this episode seems to presume that they never met there – which, for the viewing audience, may be just as well since NBC didn't air the episodes in the intended order, postponing Breakout until 1985, by which point the series had been cancelled. Howard K. Smith is credited, but does not appear in the episode.

Does SW simulation standard require SW premium or pro version? We run SW 2016 standard version and are purchasing Simulation standard.
Curious and making sure we aren't overlooking some requirement to run the simulation software.
Thank you for your answer and link.
Are you just doing linear static analysis? Are you just looking at parts or are you looking to analyze assemblies?
Your VAR should be able to tell you exactly which version will work for your application(s).


I'd be willing to do it, but I can't seem to find the ability to disable layers in MAME.
Using F4 to enter the graphics mode is about as close as you get to layer disabling in MAME.
Here's a WIP of the first stage. It lacks the background and sprites. I've also discovered that the water has a cycling palette, but I think it will be relatively easy to fix.
The original arcade version features ten stages according to the promotional flyer, counting the two "homicide sensor" bosses after the base stages as separate stages. The final four stages in the game (the snowfield, the energy zone, the hangar and the alien lair) all take place in one continuous level.
It looks good. It looks like the stages in this version are really short judging by the first one. Doubly so considering that the last 4 levels from the NES are combined in a single here.
Base 1 completed. Comments on the format are welcome.
Looks fine to me. I like how you arranged the different screens in the shape of the map.
Waterfall and Base 2 completed.
They look good. Granted, the bases are really confusing but that's not your fault, and using the game's own maps as a template is the best way to do it.
Stages 7-10 (Snowfield, Energy Zone, Hangar, and Alien's Lair) completed. The only reasons it took so long to complete are because I was a bit busy and I encountered a couple annoying snags along the way. The map was in an almost-complete state when osrevad returned.
I made one 2 pixel error when copying the background in the last part, but I don't feel motivated enough to fix it at this point. If nobody cares, I'll submit the maps tomorrow, which means I will have officially mapped all three games in the trilogy.
I decided to fix the error. Hopefully I didn't introduce any new ones.
The maps have been compressed and sent to JonLeung.

History » Human » People » Society » Government » Feudalism
Feudalism is a blanket term used to describe the forms of government common to Europe during the middle ages] (although similar forms existed in other places at other times). Central to the concept of feudalism is the concept of holding land in return for military service - indeed the name derives from the Latin foedus, meaning "treaty" or "agreement". Much of the structure of a feudal state typically derived from its head (normally the king) letting land to his immediate followers ("tenants in chief", often referred to as Barons) in return for specified (normally military1) service, who then sublet portions of that land to tenants of their own in return for service (known as subinfeudation). A feudal state also usually observed a "three caste" structure, with a noble "warrior caste" - who formed the majority of those in feudal land tenures, a "religious caste" of priests and monks - also holding land but generally without the military aspects and a "worker caste" of commoners who did practically everything else. Naturally enough, this was not an entirely clear set of distinctions - a serf held land in return for service, but was emphatically not part of the warrior caste, and land could also be rented in return for payment rather than service, but on the whole the model overall was applicable2.
Technically this meant that all - or most - of the land in the country belonged to the king: any land not held in respect of a feudal duty was termed an allod (as opposed to a fief, which was and demesne3 - which was that part of a landholding not sublet to tenants). Also, given that the concept of a "country" tended to be recursant on "land the belongs to king X" it was entirely possible for a given tenant to hold land from two (or more) different kings, and, indeed for a king in one country to be a tenant in another. A key feature of feudalism was (once again) the foedus - the personal and reciprocal arrangement between lord and vassal, of loyal service in return for reward, very much rooted in the tribal warband cultures from which it had evolved. Land held by organisations (typically the Church) was far more problematic and something that most medieval cultures struggled with to some degree.
Feudalism was also closely linked to the economic model of manorialism - although some tenants might hold a "money fief" in return for their service (typically a monopoly or rights to gather a specific tax), most feudal tenure was of land and most of that was divided up into manors. Conversely, however, it was entirely possible to hold a "fief" in return for a rent (commonly called a farm) in cash or kind (this was more common in regard of commoners, who at many times were not permitted to bear arms, or were at least limited in what arms they could bear) - as always, it was down to what was agreed between Lord and tenant.
The demise of feudalism tended to occur as kings became more and more willing to accept scutage (roughly "shielding) payments in lieu of service from their tenants - originally an accommodation for those unable to serve it became more and more a normal alternative, which benefitted both sides. By accepting scutage, a king then received a fixed payment with which he could pay professional soldiers who would be at least theoretically loyal to their employer, rather than a feudal levy of unknown quality, primarily loyal to their employer (the tenant) who would disappear at the end of their service period. Once the kings no longer relied on their tenants to raise troops it became increasingly convenient to remove their ability to do so, reducing the chances of revolt by people with troops to hand, and so, with the basic plank of "service for land" pulled out, much of the feudal system fell away.
Despite "feudalism" being considered primarily a European phenomenon, similar systems existed in the Hellenic Empires, Japan, China and various Middle Eastern and African cultures.
1. full source reference
Note that feudalism tends towards weak central government (since most of the king's forces are actually commanded by his tenants in chief), conflicting power centres, often based on poorly worded agreements and a heavy reliance on tradition.
Private War was relatively common between feudal magnates - as might be expected of men with a concrete answer to the question "you and whose army?" - and ending such a war often depended on either the king or the church expending some form of capital (whether social, financial or moral) to end it.
Likewise, the need to hammer out disputes in contracts of tenure created a culture of civil litigation which most European cultures maintain to this day.
This is the traditional basis of most fRPGs, although the actual systems of government in their settings rarely resemble anything from the historical middle ages.
Note that the (command) structure of a feudal army is likely to be chaotic - there are no officers or enlisted men, just landholders and their tenants (and then their tenants etc.) and the chain of command will depend on who has the largest number of troops and who has the highest status (with conflict likely if the two differ). Woe betide the king who appoints a man to command over someone of higher rank - levels of strategic ability not withstanding - and personal animosity amongst equals can derail almost anything.
This gives social specialist PCs an excellent way to disrupt an enemy army by fostering conflict amongst the heads of large contingents - with the wrong men in charge an army may spend more time bickering amongst themselves rather than fighting.
Alternatively PCs may be leading a feudal army and forced to deal with bickering subordinates.
…and if a commoner PC is placed in command of nobles all bets are off4.
The actual formation of a feudal army can be disrupted if the tenants do not feel their own lands are secure enough to take their troops away from - either due to lawlessness or threats from a bordering power5.
Note that feudalism makes it hard for a woman to hold land in her own right unless she is fully capable of meeting the same obligations as a male tenant (more common in fiction than reality) - normally a widow or heiress would be assigned a male guardian who would bear the obligations of the fief and receive its benefits until a suitable male heir or husband could take over. This could be quite a lucrative business for a fortunate guardian - and possibly an invitation to wife husbandry in some cases.
The usual alternative to a guardian was for the woman to pay a "relief" - essentially a payment in lieu of her obligations, similar to scutage, to allow her to retain autonomy. This was very much by consent of the suzerain only6, but was not unheard of, especially when the relief was a useful source of cash and/or inflated to serve as a bribe.
1. This was sometimes divided up into campaigning service, guarding castles and similar things, depending on the specifics of the agreement - and most feudal Lords also had "right of counsel", which allowed them to summon their tenants for various political and legal duties as well.
2. For reference, holding land in return for defined payment (i.e. rent) was often called socage and holding land in return for defined service serjeanty - such service might have been military (hence the numbers of commoner warriors described as "serjeants"), but might equally be some duty such as keeping a specific castle supplied with fuel.
3. Demesne applied at all levels - from the King (who held some lands for his own use rather than enfief them to tenants) to the lowliest landed knight (whose manor would have some demesne lands not parcelled out to serfs and farmers).
4. Realistically, the king will either be forced to ennoble them - which may cause grumbling, or make them an "advisor" and officially make all the decisions himself - which will undermine the king's authority if he is seen to be controlled by a commoner.
5. In an in-game example, a PC king managed to resolve the issue of two powerful tenants who neither trusted one another (since they were neighbours), nor were prepared to bring a full muster due to being in a very wild border region, by having one Lord command the other's full feudal levy whilst his rival remained at home guarding both fiefs with the other Lord's levy. A very elegant solution, but possibly unlikely in a historical setting.
6. …and recall that in most cases he had his own obligations to meet, which could include providing his tenants as part of a muster…

Q: BroadcastReceiver does not work when application is in background or killed I have created BroadcastReceiver where I detect when an incoming call is received on the device.
My code is
[BroadcastReceiver()]
[IntentFilter(new[] { "android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE" })]
public class MyBroadcastReceiver : BroadcastReceiver
{
    public override void OnReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
    {
    //My implementation
    }
}

Problem is when the application is not running or killed forcefully, BroadcastReceiver class does not get called.
Can anyone please help?

A: BroadcastReceiver will not work when the application is killed, you have to use service for that , you can use BroadcastReceiver inside a service to run it even when the app is not running.

A:
BroadcastReceiver does not work when application is not in background or killed

You could refer to: Android Broadcast Receiver not working when the app is killed, as CommonsWare said:

Once onReceive() returns, if you do not have an activity in the foreground and you do not have a running service, your process importance will drop to what the documentation refers to as a "cached process". Your process is eligible to be terminated at any point. Once your process is terminated, your BroadcastReceiver goes away. Hence, your code as written will be unreliable, as your process might be terminated within your 30-second window.

Solution:
So you could use a Service to implement your feature, here is my simple demo:
[Service]
[IntentFilter(new String[] { "com.xamarin.DemoService" })]
public class DemoService : Service
{
    private static DemoReceiver m_ScreenOffReceiver;

    public override IBinder OnBind(Intent intent)
    {
        return null;
    }

    public override void OnCreate()
    {
        registerScreenOffReceiver();
        base.OnCreate();
    }

    public override void OnDestroy()
    {
        UnregisterReceiver(m_ScreenOffReceiver);
        m_ScreenOffReceiver = null;
        base.OnDestroy();
    }

    //From this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20592366/the-process-of-the-service-is-killed-after-the-application-is-removed-from-the-a
    public override void OnTaskRemoved(Intent rootIntent)
    {
        Intent restartServiceIntent = new Intent(Application.Context, typeof(DemoService));
        restartServiceIntent.SetPackage(PackageName);

        PendingIntent restartServicePendingIntent = PendingIntent.GetService(Application.Context, 1, restartServiceIntent, PendingIntentFlags.OneShot);
        AlarmManager alarmService = (AlarmManager)Application.Context.GetSystemService(Context.AlarmService);
        alarmService.Set(AlarmType.ElapsedRealtime, SystemClock.ElapsedRealtime() + 1000, restartServicePendingIntent);
        base.OnTaskRemoved(rootIntent);
    }

    private void registerScreenOffReceiver()
    {
        m_ScreenOffReceiver = new DemoReceiver();
        IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter("com.xamarin.example.TEST");
        RegisterReceiver(m_ScreenOffReceiver, filter);
    }
}

Update:
If you need the service run at a higher priority to avoid it be killed, you could try using Foreground Service. As SushiHangover said:
As a foreground service it has a higher priority so the OS will consider it last to be killed, it avoids the automatic dozing of your services to save battery in later APIs , etc... The "downside" is the user must be made aware that it is running, thus the requirement to be placed in the notification bar, personally I do not see that as a problem and wish it was a hard requirement for all services.

Detroit Development News
True North, a Quonset hut community, opens for residents
Quonset huts are back in Detroit
By Robin Runyan Jun 16, 2017, 11:00am EDT

With the vast amount of land in Detroit, there's room for innovative housing and development. True North, which has sprung up over the past year, is one of those truly unique ideas.
Last summer, we started hearing that a few Quonset huts were being built off of Grand River and 16th. We visited in the winter, as many started to rise. Since then, people from around the world have shown interest in this little community and now, they're housing new residents.
Curbed recently toured the new community with developer Philip Kafka, as landscaping and final touches are underway. Some of the spaces will be dynamic and activated, while most will simply be residences. They've planted 30 trees and more wild grass and a clay court is yet to come. Of the residences, all seven are occupied or will be rented shortly. One of the huts will be rented out as an Airbnb, while the largest one (the tall one with the ladder) will have a gallery space and an apartment above it.
Kafka says that once the news broke of the development, they had over 150 inquiries about it. When people who haven't seen it drive by, he says, they stop to look. He says he's happy with how democratic the design is, and wanted a sensible development that's good for everyone. Could there be more on the way? Possibly. For now, they're learning from the building of this development and what could be improved in the future.
Here's a tour around the new community, including some of the huts which will soon house residents.

Antonio Hernandez & Conservation Voters for Idaho
Antonio wanted to work with conservation efforts early on, even though he didn't necessarily consider himself a conservationist. Going to school and growing up in Nampa, Antonio grew to believe that conservation was important because of how it is intrinsically tied to democracy and voting. At the state level, Antonio believes it's crucially important for individual citizens to get involved.
Growing up in the Hispanic community in Idaho, Antonio says his mom was always saving single use containers and his Grandfather would always pick up and reuse discarded items. 28 years of that instilled in him the belief that everyone should leave their communities better for future generations. According to Antonio, "that cultural environmental work happens naturally." And, he points out, communities of color are the most likely to be negatively impacted by pollution. In order to protect all communities, he says it's important to ensure that everyone is represented equally.
Conservation Voters For Idaho: Focusing on the Voter
Conservation Voters is a highly focused organization, which allows program leaders to tackle specific topics. Antonio for instance focuses on voting rights exclusively within the Hispanic community. As a second generation student who went through the American school system he appreciates the opportunity to have those conversations about voting and voter rights with his community. The group has been especially focused on creating a bridge for non-voters to start voting.
Giving Young Voters a Voice
Antonio has a special interest in the up and coming generation and says that young people have a more difficult time feeling like they are going to make an impact in already established systems. This feeling of helplessness is underscored further for young people who come from families who haven't voted on a consistent basis because those individuals are less likely to be contacted to vote. Antonio says that the program is a long term relationship building effort and they don't expect to get everyone they speak with to the polls right away.
A Growing Population
In Idaho, about 25% of the overall population growth is coming from the Hispanic community. Antonio says Conservation Voters for Idaho wants to ensure that the Hispanic community has a voice. Antonio emphasizes that the Hispanic community is growing for the same reasons the rest of the state is—they appreciate the unique and special things available only in Idaho.
The Language of Voting
Language continues to be a main topic of conversation and a big barrier in voting rights and representation. Antonio says the conservation movement has not traditionally been a space in which people of color feel that they belong. A big part of that is often because they prefer to speak in their native tongue—especially when they are voting. Idaho's "English Only" law at polling places was in effect from 2006 until 2013 and was only officially taken off the books this year. Today, Lincoln County is the only county in Idaho that is required to offer minority language support. Antonio says that federal law requires those supplemental materials be provided only if there is a certain percentage of a minority language represented.
Conservation Voters for Idaho will continue to make an impact in the Hispanic community and beyond as they continue working toward their mission of "Creating the political environment to protect the natural environment."

Foreign Visits – An Overview
As the President, Smt. Pratibha Patil undertook foreign visits across continents to promote India's national interests and improve bilateral ties. These visits have covered priority countries such as the G-5 (Russia, China and UK); continents such as Latin America where India seeks to expand its footprint (Brazil, Mexico and Chile); Africa (Mauritius, Seychelles and South Africa) where India has been a leading light in the struggle against colonialism and Apartheid, and is seen as a partner of development; SAARC (Bhutan) where India's strategic interests are paramount; Central Asia (Tajikistan) where India has core interests; East and South East Asia (Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, South Korea and Mongolia) as part of India's Look east Policy;
Europe (Cyprus, Spain, Poland, Austria and Switzerland in addition to the UK) which is India's largest trading partner taken as a bloc; the Gulf and West Asia (UAE and Syria) where there is a large concentration of Indian nationals, and where India's role in promoting peace and stability is acknowledged.

Head of States Visit to India
The growing profile of India has necessitated the need to energize interaction at the highest levels with other countries. Correspondingly, the President has received several Head of State and Government from all the regions of the world, in line with India's foreign policy of engagement with key countries on issues of bilateral, regional, and international importance. These visits, both outgoing and in-coming, have generated tremendous goodwill and contributed to cementing the strategic relationships that India has created with these countries and within wider frameworks such as G-20, SAARC, BRICS, ASEANEAS and ISBA.
The key dignitaries received by her at the Rashtrapati Bhavan included Head of Stated from G-5 nations (US, Russia, France, Germany and UK ), BRICS nations (Brazil , South Africa), SAARC nations (Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh), ASEAN, Africa, Europe, Middle east and Central Asia nations. The visit of a Head of the State to the Rashtrapati Bhavan includes ceremonial Guard of Honour in the foyer, followed by bilateral discussions between the two head of states and a banquet in the evening.

One of the most important initiatives taken by her as President on foreign visits was emphasis on promoting trade and business ties with each country she visited. Business delegations, on their own, facilitated by Indian chambers of commerce accompanied the President on her overseas visits. A serious effort was made to encourage business delegations to expand ties with counterparts in sectors that were identified in advance as having potential to generate opportunities for Indian business and industry. In every country visited by her she insisted on knowing from the local Indian business community as well as Indian companies having experience in that market, of the problems and concerns that they faced so as to work out remedial measures. Issues causing impediments in the way of trade of a serious nature that warranted intervention at the highest level were discussed. She never hesitated as President to take up issues of concern of the Indian business community with her counterparts.
As President, she made 13 State visits comprising 24 countries. Business delegations visited 21 countries during her State Visits. The representation in the Business Delegations was from diverse sectors and the number of delegates went up from 18-20 persons in the initial visits, to around 40-50 in later visits and in all, 492 representatives were part of such delegations. The visits resulted in signing of MoUs between Indian business houses and host country counterparts. The delegation level and one-to-one meetings which were held as part of the Presidential State visits helped in removing bottlenecks, clearing apprehensions and identifying fresh avenues for new and mutually beneficial economic activities and people to people contacts.
On her initiative, the three Business Chambers, ASSOCHAM, CII & FICCI by turn, took the lead in organizing visits of the delegations to different countries during her State Visits. The three chambers compiled the achievements and outcomes of these visits in a compendium titles "Engaging the World" and jointly presented it to her as the President on June 18, 2012. Speaking on the occasion, Shri D.S.Rawat, Secretary General, ASSOCHAM, said that the President's initiatives for taking Indian business representatives in delegations abroad 'gave them a unique exposure at the highest levels in the host countries'. While expressing gratitude to her as President, Shri Chandrajit Banerjee, Director General, CII, spoke about 'the unique leadership that we saw in Smt. Pratibha Patil, in taking industry along and exposing them at the highest level in several countries and really increasing our exposure and our share in the global economy'. Dr. Rajiv Kumar, Secretary General, FICCI, said that the compendium is a summary of what the President has achieved in these five years, on behalf of the Indian industry, and how the President helped them in taking industry forward.
