Good horror score for game or movie. -Isaac Engelhorn (10/3/2001)
Biohazard 2 Original Soundtrack is a video game soundtrack. You will find the track list plus an extensive track-by-track analysis below the standard review. It is my hope that you will gain a better understanding of video game music by reading exactly what it has to offer as it is different from American film music.

We all love a good horror score, right? Especially one that is not only entertaining, but tense and nerveracking at the same time. That's definitely what we have here. While not quite as tension-filled as Silent Hill, which was actually a differnt approach altogether, Biohazard 2 - Original Soundtrack contains what fans of most traditional horror scores enjoy listening to. Though not a genuine orchestral performance, the score utilizes some of the highest-quality synths you will find. On the Playstation or otherwise.
Like Hitoshi Sakimoto's Vagrant Story score, this goes so far as to incorporate dissonance into the synths, among other, more Media Ventures-derived sounds, like electronic backbeats and the like.
While most of the tracks are written as background music following no discernable pattern, the first five tracks are all cinematic cues meant to accompany the FMVs (full-motion videos) of the game.
BH2 is also full of some rather impressive theme, though the one that leaves the greatest impression is probably the "G Tyrant" theme, heard in tracks 17, 21, and 29. This eight-note theme comes off as one of the most adrenaline-pumping action themes to come from a video game.
Overall, those looking for a good horror score, with shocking moments, constant thrills, terrifying ambience, and other effective traits had better take a second look at what video game soundtracks have to offer. I'd almost go so far as to say that Biohazard 2 - Original Soundtrack is an essencial purchase for fans of horror scores everywhere. Almost. It is a tad bit pricey.
Track Title Track Analysis Rating
1. The Beginning of the Story The score begins with rather typical somber dissonance, but as the track moves on, the music gains intensity and volume. It drops off in a few key places and seemingly starts over from scratch, but eventually becomes intentinally unstable, making violent changes in both tempo and volume. Some different easter eggs are added to the mix like snippets of descending male choir, odd synth effects, and Media Venture-ish backbeats (which I actually don't like too well, but they work). 7.5/10
2. Annette's Recollection It's true that this is not much a stylistic departure from the previous track, but there are enough new ideas (and recurring motifs) that you will recognize moving between the tracks, like the previously mentioned Media Ventures style of writing. What is different about this track as opposed to the previous one is that rather than bounce up and down in ferocity, it basically runs itself ragged from beginning to end, with very little calmness. 7/10
3. Normal End Title First off, the track title is a little misleading, because this really isn't an end title. Instead it is another cue for an action sequence that happens immediately after you win the game for the first time. Although rather short, the first action half of the track packs quite a whallop, while the second half is a calmer, soothing part after the danger is over (or so you're meant to think). What I always find amusing about the second half of this track is that a theme that enters reminds me of a song from the mid-1980s called "I Miss You". I forget the name of who performed it, but I really could care less. 80s pop music isn't exactly the kind of stuff that I listen to. ;-) 7.5/10
4. Special End Title Again, the track title is misleading for the exact same reason. This cue is what plays as you finally, *truly* beat the game. Again, the first half is relentless action music, but once the danger is over, a piano enters signifying that all is okay for our characters, until they are called into action once again. This track segues into the next by means of a quote by Leon, one of the main characters of the game. 7.5/10
5. Credit Line of Whole Staff This is much different from the preceding tracks. Instead of an orchestral piece for the true end title (finally), the composers insert a rather harsh hard rock song. I'm certain that most fans of film scores will be appalled by this track, but I can actually get into it, because it actually does fit in with the game quite well, even though it is a bit distracting on album. 8/10
6. Prologue The track titles may make the tracks seem a little out of order. While this is not technically true since the music has intentionally been split up into certain sections, I think that it would have made more sense to put the tracks in an order that would have made a better listening experience. Unfortunately, this is not the case, but this particular track is actually more like a cue because it is not an in-game background piece. Instead it is the music that plays as you, the player, are being introduced to the story and are being given background information on the situation. Though it constantly throbs heavily, it never really gets too intense and kind of gets lost in the middle of the whole score. 6/10
7. Raccoon City This begins almost exactly like the "Prologue" track, and sounds quite similar. While you don't get to hear the full thing, the G Tyrant theme is hinted at a couple of times. This is another track that has a constant backbeat akin to your average Media Ventures action score (I've been mentioning these guys a lot, haven't I?). 7/10
8. The Front Hall Since the main hall of the police station is one of the "safe" areas in the game, this music is a more subdued, "easy" piece. I certainly wouldn't say it's comforting, since it quite clearly signifies the looming danger that waits inside the rest of the police station. 7/10
9. The First Floor "The First Floor" is similar, yet considerably more tense than the previous track. It's almost as if the music itself knows what kind of danger you can run into at any moment, making it a more effective piece of music than "The Front Hall". 7.5/10
10. The Second Floor As a suitable continuation in the progression of tracks, this is quite similar to the previous two, yet at the same time, it is even more dissonant and foreboding than what has been heard before, making it the most effective background track yet. 7.5/10
11. Secure Place As the track title may have given away, this music plays when your character has found and is in a room in which there are no monsters and there is no threat of your destruction. Basically, it is just simple piano and string ambience, but it is effectively soothing. 7/10
12. Leon With Claire This ambient piece plays in a part of the game that involves the a short meeting between the two main characters. The instrumentation is mostly unchanged from the last few tracks. Lots of (synth) strings coupled with a distant piano. 7/10
13. The Library Another track similar to the "floor" cues, but in some way, this is actually more effective in its tension. I'm not exactly sure why this is, but I think that this track is the best and most effective used during the sequence of the game that takes place at the police station. 7.5/10
14. Sherry's Theme I'm not entirely certain why this track is reffered to as a "theme" since there is not discernable melody at all. Instead, it is simply made up of more ambience. Although it is not particularly noteworthy, it helps the flow of the album, since it's not quite as bleak as most of the previous tracks. In fact, though it's melancholy, it has a rather hopeful sound overall. 7/10
15. The Basement of the Police Station This is easily the darkest of all of the ambient tracks that take place in the library. Rather than being a traditional ambient piece, it is more like a collection of slow, dark sound effects. This may sound as if it's similar to the Silent Hill, but I wouldn't really go so far as to make that particular comparison. Silent Hill's ambience was based more in an industrial rock setting, while this consists of different, odder synth effects. Probably the most interesting of these sounds like a muted gong. 6/10
16. "T" -A This is what plays as your character is first confronted by a "tyrant", a huge, lumbering zombie. While this grabs your attention at the very beginning, it lacks the cohesion that could make it a really interesting track. It does work quite well in the game, but on CD, it loses much of it's power. I generall skip this while listening to the whole score. 5.5/10
17. The First Malformation of "G" This is the first variation of the "G" theme mentioned in the introduction. This is the first real in-game action track, that plays a your character runs into William Burkin, a scientist who has injected himself with the "G Virus" to mutate his body. 7/10
18. Ada's Theme Again, it is rather hard to actually call this a theme. While there is a flute that plays above everything, it is hard to really pick out a consistant melody. As you may have guessed, it is basically another dark, ambient track with strings and piano. I think that this only plays in one part of the game as Leon talks to Ada after she has been wounded by William Birkin, the scientist mentioned earlier. 6.5/10
19. The Marshaling Yard (The First Half) There's not much to categorize in this track, as it is obviously more ambience, but the "orchestrations" added make it stand out a little. There is a little bit of odd keyboard added to the constant strings and a couple pieces of "clanking" noise in the background. But what probably sets this out the most from other tracks is what sounds like a choir taking a large breath out together. Of course it's not a real choir, but the effect is still pretty cool-sounding. 7.5/10
20. The Marshaling Yard (The Latter Half) This uses the practically identical instrumentation to the previous track, only the "instruments" are used in slightly different ways. For example, a choir is used in place of the strings from before and what strings are here are quiet and dissonant. Although it is harder to notice this time around, the breathing choir is here again, too. 7/10
21. The Second Malformation of "G" Big action cue time! As you may have guessed, this is a huge, pounding variation on the "G" theme. This arrangement of the theme is much more malicious and overbearing than the last, even though it is rather straight-forward. In the game, this is very effective and on album, it is one of the most entertaing tracks. 8/10
22. The Underground Laboratory The ambience of this track is much less musical than most of the other tracks like it. Instead of using the traditional instrumentation of the other pieces of music, this instead relies more on the use of sound effects to unnerve the player. Later in the track, the more traditional elements do show up for a very short time. I probably like this track a little less than others of its kind, though I do think that it is still effective and decent. 6.5/10
23. Is Ada a Spy? Well, the answer to the title of this track is yes, because this is the music that plays as you are told by another character that one of the people that you are with has been working against you the whole time. Naturally, your character is skeptical, but it should seem quite obvious to anyone who's seen a B Horror flick that what she says falls in-line with most horror cliches. The track itself is hardly interesting at all, as all it presents is a collection of synthy sounds atop a rather dull, throbbing bass guitar line. 5.5/10
24. Escape from the Laboratory I was extremely impressed with this music the first time I heard it in the context of the game. While the effect has worn off on me with time, the track should still prove to be very effective for people who play the game that never have before. This is like many of the opening, cinematic tracks as it take the more action oriented approach with many Media Venture-ish synth qualities. It is a fast-paced action/suspense track that does an incredibly good job of keeping the player in a state of grueling and desperate horror. 7.5/10
25. Goodbye, Leon... For being in a video game based on B movie sensibilities, this track is extremely effective as a dramatic tool. You can almost feel the anguish of the character Leon in the game as this music plays. This occurs when Ada dies, though it only happens so noticeably if you play through the game as Leon first (you have a choice between him and a young woman named Claire. No, not the Claire from The Breakfast Club ;-) ). 8/10
26. Mother This track is one of the softer, more inspirational tracks (which might seem unusual in this game, but it works). I really like this, even though it is melancholy, as one of the character's mothers is dying. The soft piano tinkling is a highlight. 7/10
27. One More Kiss The music here plays as Leon believes that he is watching Ada die in a different scenario. Since this scenario is the more important of the two, you would think that this track would have intentionally been a little more effective in conveying emotions, but unfortunately it is not. The track "Goodbye, Leon..." is much more effective. I just don't think that this music tries hard enough, though I probably shouldn't complain since the other track that I've mentioned actually tries a little too hard. Maybe the composers were trying to make a perfect balance between the two. Guess I'll never know for sure, but the track's decent anyway, just not as good as it could have been. 6.5/10
28. "T" -B This is another track that astounded me at how well it worked in the game. Well, the introduction impressed me more than the overall track. The opening seconds contain a rising chorus that sounded teriffic (I'd never heard chorus used in a video game soundtrack up to that point). The rest of the track is rather typical action filler that plays as you fight a "Tyrant", which is basically a giant zombie, only bigger, faster, and much more deadly. Of all the big action tracks though, this is probably the single least interesting, but it does score points for the cool intro. 7/10
29. The Third Malformation of "G" Easily my favorite overall track, the final goodbye to the G theme (or the final goodbye to your character, if you die) is the most incredibly pulse-pounding arrangement yet. This time the thumping sound is augmented by a wailing soprano vocal solo. Though it is synth, it sounds pretty good when mixed in with the rest of the music. Don't miss this track. 8.5/10
30. And After That... This a simple and calm resolution to not just the recent onslaught of action, but the entire creepy game as well. It's just a quiet, simple piano solo over strings that hardly even change notes. It is short, but provides ample time for the gamer to calm down. 7/10
31. Credit Line This particular track sounds a little out-of-place when compared to the rest of the music. It is a dramatic orchestral piece with a theme which is not based on any of the music previously heard. Probably what I find the oddest about it is the fact that all of the softer, less terrifying music heard before was soothing, but always had a dark or melancholy twist to it. This track is nothing but warmth and happiness. I still like it a lot though, and it makes a decent way to end the album. 7.5/10

Shaping Worship During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Ministry of Presence at St. Anna Greek Orthodox Church, Roseville, California
Greek Orthodox Christian worship is consciously embodied. Christopher Flesoras, a Greek Orthodox priest, discusses pastoral discernment for serving the faithful when public health needs require social distancing, also known as physical distancing.
Christopher Flesoras and Joan Huyser-Honig
communion, coronavirus, covid-19, covid-19 series, technology, trauma, worship planning
Christopher D. Flesoras: St. Anna Greek Orthodox Church pastor; Air National Guard chaplain; adjunct faculty at William Jessup University and Fuller Theological Seminary.
Current city: Roseville, California
Denominational context: The Greek Orthodox Church of America (GOA)
Worship roles: Flesoras's role as a priest is to perform the worship as ordered by GOA liturgical tradition.
COVID-19 situation (as of April 6, 2020): Our church has a few hundred families. As of March 20, 2020, we're limited by the state to gatherings of no more than ten people, and each person must maintain a social and physical distance of at least six feet. So, like many faith communities, we have transitioned to online services. We have also been instructed to mitigate the risks of home or pastoral visits.
As of late, it seems as though the governor is allowing local counties or cities to discern what in fact is an "essential service." We do have mandates from our local hierarch, the Archbishop of America, and also the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (our first among equals), though, as to how we are to navigate these waters. Simply, we are to exercise pastoral discernment to best serve the faithful. In our case, the parish administrator, my brother priest, and I still maintain a ministry of presence at the church. People may stop by to light a candle and say a prayer or even receive a blessing. If there is a sacrament scheduled (marriage or baptism, for instance), we are to either reschedule or mitigate risks through limiting attendance and maintaining social distancing.
In late March, I was put on orders as an Air National Guard chaplain, so the days have been and will continue to be long.
What's working well—or not: Online services are far from ideal, but they are well attended. We do the service in the nave and sanctuary with a Mevo camera operator, two priests, a deacon, an altar server, and two chanters. We have recorded and archived these services on our church's Facebook page. But at some point, we will probably just livestream, not record, because we want the faithful in any setting to gather for worship at the same time as one body. We also plan to upgrade our technology for a better feed.
The world is always ailing, and we as the church can never stop being who we are, physically and spiritually. We have to consider the profound effects of baptism, the eucharist, holy unction, and the sacrament of confession, which are types of medicine or treatments for our spiritual and physical well-being. Taking communion at home, in isolation, certainly does not fit our Orthodox piety. It is the fullness of us coming together by grace, under the same bishop, at the same altar, proclaiming the same faith. Furthermore, the means by which we offer the eucharist—both consecrated elements being in a common chalice and administered by a common spoon—really cannot be modified in a hasty manner. So for now, at least, most of our faithful are not receiving the eucharistic gifts of bread and wine.
Most helpful worship resources: As our services are ordered and informed by our liturgical tradition, we currently use AGES Initiative, a digital chant stand, as a platform. We send the link of the text and also a PDF for our faithful before each service.
Also, our Greek Orthodox tradition of the Great Lent is helpful. While other churches may be worried about ways to do online giving, it's our Lenten exercise to focus giving only on stewardship, benevolence, and philanthropy. If we're doing our Lenten fasting, then we have more money to give for other people's needs. We don't ask the faithful to support our capital campaign during Lent. We're all dealing with COVID-19 concerns, but we've intentionally framed our correspondence by noting that this is Great and Holy Lent. Praying for all who are ill and all who administer cures for the ailing is truly part of our Lenten askesis (spiritual discipline).
Needs, questions, or insights to share: We hope communities are truly struggling with the pastoral, ecclesiastical, and theological implications of how to be a prophetic voice. Churches are responding to this dynamically changing pandemic. Yet ministry can't be reactive. It must be prayerful and thoughtful. The precedents we set in this moment may shape generations to come. As we use virtual worship, we need to remain informed by our history and keep our eyes ever on the kingdom to come. We don't want to convey a message that, even after the virus is done, it's okay to stay home and watch rather than participate in communal worship of and at church. Simply, we have to serve our people in this moment considering the implications of these decisions on our faithful and our parishes going forward.
"While it's good to pray specifically about COVID-19 needs,
we shouldn't make our prayers only about this pandemic.
There remain people dealing with
every type of ailment within our parishes.
Some continue to battle cancer or other life-threatening diseases,
while others endure the loss of a loved one
due to tragedy, illness, or even a miscarriage."
—Christopher Flesoras
Also, while it's good to pray specifically about COVID-19 needs, we shouldn't make our prayers only about this pandemic. There remain people dealing with every type of ailment within our parishes. Some continue to battle cancer or other life-threatening diseases, while others endure the loss of a loved one due to tragedy, illness, or even a miscarriage. We must continue to pray for each of these individuals and families as well as those who are COVID-19-positive. And, we need to pray for all researchers and health care workers, not just those dealing with the pandemic.
The Greek Orthodox Church in America offers a digital COVID-19 toolkit, including instructions on how to livestream worship. Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of the United States of America also has excellent COVID-19 advice, including how to maintain youth and young adult ministries when you can't gather in person. Read an Ancient Ministries blog post about how Abba Zosima, a sixth-century desert father, practiced Lenten distancing.
Means of Grace: Forming New and Sustaining "Renewing" Congregations and Church Plants
In this seminar, veteran practitioners discussed how mission-shaped preaching and sacramental life function as means of grace in their communities. Audience engaged a discussion that sees evangelism and robust worship as beautifully integrated elements of every congregation's ministry.
Church Polity and Online Sacraments in the Christian Reformed Church
Kathy Smith, Adjunct Professor of Church Polity at Calvin Theological Seminary, reflects on the administration of sacraments in the unique context of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. She advises Christian Reformed churches to practice pastoral flexibility while still abiding by church polity, and provides a historical example from World War II, related by her predecessor Henry De Moor.
As containment of COVID-19 forces your worshiping community to implement shelter-in-place worship and practice social isolation, we offer these resources to help you plan and cope in ways that encourage and support your community. These resources were initially created from events and in response to different situations and can be adapted for worship that encourages prayer and Christian community during this time of social distancing necessary to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

2nd European Games "Table Tennis"
Tennis Olympic Centre, Minsk
Buy ticket on 2nd European Games "Table Tennis"
General admission (GA)- a first-come first-seat basis ticket
Session Competition Schedule:
10:00-12:00 Mixed Doubles - Quarter Finals
13:00-21:00 Men's Singles - Round 4
13:00-21:00 Women's Singles - Round 4
Table tennis is a sport in which two or four players hit a lightweight ball back and forth across a table using small bats. A point is scored when a player fails to return the ball within the rules.
Five sets of medals will be contested by 128 table tennis players.
Competitions will be held at the Tennis Olympic Centre. The main indoor facility of the Tennis Olympic Centre has four tennis courts with artificial hard turf, spectator stands that can accommodate 400 people and a training hall with a free kick wall. At Games time the capacity of stands will be increased, and tennis courts will be re-equipped for table tennis events.
Vladimir Samsonov is the world-class table tennis legend. Samsonov is a multiple winner of the European Championships, three-time World Cup winner, holder of 27 ITTF World Tour titles and 1997 ITTF World Tour Grand Final runner-up, nine-time European Champion League winner. Samsonov also competed at six Olympic Games (1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016). In 1998 he topped the world men's single ranking list. Despite his age (Samsonov is 42), he wants to compete at the 2nd European Games MINSK 2019.
Samsonov owns several world records in table tennis: he is the only table tennis player in the world to win ITTF World Tour stages on all five continents — Italian Open 1996, Japan Open 1999, Brazil Open 2004, Morocco Open 2009 and Australian Open 2017; he also holds the record for the number of ITTF World Tour men's single titles.
Experts say that table tennis is among the 10 most popular sports and attracts a total of about 850 million players around the world.
At 2008 Beijing Olympics Chinese table tennis players won all medals in men's and women's singles as well as men's and women's team events. After that the Olympic rules were changed and since 2012 no more than two men and two women representing the same country can compete in singles.

MCC has announced that Shane Warne has been appointed to its World Cricket committee.
Former Australia leg-spinner Warne, regarded as one of the greatest bowlers of all time, accepted the invitation to join the committee, which meets twice a year to discuss the most important issues in the game and acts as an independent voice in world cricket.
Warne enjoyed a distinguished international career with Australia, becoming the first bowler to reach 700 Test wickets, with his tally of 708 standing second on the all-time list.
He played 145 Tests for Australia, making his debut against India at Sydney in 1992 and bowing out 15 years later at the same venue in the final match of the Ashes series in 2006-07. Aside from his Test achievements, he took 293 wickets in 194 One-Day Internationals, and is one of only two bowlers to have taken over 1,000 international wickets across all formats of the game.
Warne spent five seasons in English county cricket with Hampshire, and captained the side between 2004 and 2007.
He officially retired from all formats of the game in 2013 following stints in Australia's Big Bash and the Indian Premier League, but returned to captain the Rest of the World XI against MCC at Lord's to celebrate the Bicentenary of the Ground in 2014. He was made an Honorary Life Member of MCC in 2009. Warne takes up his position on the World Cricket committee as a replacement for his fellow Australian Rod Marsh, who has stepped down after serving on the committee since 2012.
"It is an extremely exciting time for cricket and I hope that I will have plenty to offer in discussion and debate"
Mike Gatting, Chairman of the MCC World Cricket committee, said: "We're delighted to welcome Shane on to the committee. Obviously his profile in the world game is as big as they come and with his extensive experience, I am sure he will offer great insights into many different facets of the game.
One of the key outcomes of the MCC World Cricket committee's last meeting, which was held at Lord's in August, included the suggestion that pace of play needs further scrutiny, with the idea of adopting a "shot clock" to help speed up play. Since it was formed in 2006, the MCC World Cricket committee has made recommendations which have resulted in the introduction of pink ball day/night cricket in the Test match arena, the universal adoption of DRS across the international game, and a limit placed on the size of bats to help the balance between bat and ball.


At AM Insulation Solutions, we are committed to providing viable solutions to energy conservation within your home. As a division of the AM Group of Companies, we are held to the highest standards for customer service, and workmanship. We provide complimentary attic inspections, and employ the use of thermal imaging technology. This thermal technology is used to ensure that every area of heat loss, pertaining to your attic space, is found and rectified quickly and efficiently. This technology also acts as a visual aid for our customers, providing them with physical evidence of the depth of there heat, and cool air loss. At AM Insulation Solutions, we are proud to be Owens Corning Certified Energy Experts. Our attic insulation installers are highly certified, and thoroughly trained in house, in the application of blown in insulation in Chatsworth. Over 30% of the heat loss that your home experiences, is directly related to your attic insulation levels. This energy loss can cause a tremendous increase on your heating, and cooling bills, and have a profoundly negative effect the level on your home comfort level. Stop spending more than you need to on your energy bills, contact the experts in attic insulation in Chatsworth, AM Insulation Solutions.
R-value is the unit of measurement used to determine the ability of an attic insulation in Chatsworth, to resist heat transfer. The greater the R-value of the material, the better its insulating capabilities. R-value can be effectively increased by using multiple layers of your chosen insulating material. The recommended R-value for your area will be largely dependant on the type of climate in which you live. In the province of Ontario, the current recommended standard for attic insulation in Chatsworth, is R60, or 22.5inches. Maintaining this depth of blown in insulation in Chatsworth, will ensure optimal energy conservation within your home.
Ensuring that your attic space is properly maintained, with sufficient attic insulation, ventilation, and effectively air sealed is incredibly important through extreme weather seasons. During the summertime, when temperatures can soar well above comfortable levels, the air within your attic space can rise to extremely high temperatures. Without sufficient attic insulation in Chatsworth, this heated air can force its way into your living space, causing you're A/C to work twice as hard to maintain a comfortable temperature. This overworking of your air conditioning can end up costing you an exorbitant amount on your energy bills. Uncomfortable temperature fluctuations throughout your home are also likely, with some rooms remaining very warm, and far less comfortable than others, regardless of how hard you're A/C is working. In order to prevent these issues, your attic insulation must remain at proper R-value. Through the winter months, heat loss can be a prevalent issue in homes with under maintained attic spaces. This can have a profound effect on your heating costs, as your furnace must work much harder to keep your home warm. Despite your furnaces best efforts to keep you comfortable, you will likely find that many rooms cannot maintain a comfortable temperature. Stop these problems in their tracks, and start saving on your heating and cooling costs today, contact a reputable installer of blown in attic insulation in Chatsworth, like AM Insulation Solutions.
Your roofing system is one of the most important parts of your home. It is your families last line of defense from inclement weather. Your roofing system is also quite costly to repair and replace, so you'll want to keep it as healthy as possible, and a simple way to do this is to properly maintain your attic insulation in Chatsworth. Though it may not seem as so, insufficient attic insulation and attic ventilation can have an profoundly negative effect on your roofing system. The attic space within your home should have the ability to remain the same temperature as that of the air outside. During the winter months, when many of our roofs are snow covered, and our furnaces are on full blast, small air leaks between your living and attic spaces can cause the temperature within your attic space to rise rapidly. When this occurs the snow that sits on your roofing system can begin to melt, and run down your roof before freezing along the edge of your roof, and in your eavestrough. This is a problem referred to as, ice damming. When ice dams occur, they can cause significant damage to your eavestrough, and prevent any future melts from draining properly, causing leaks within your attic space. This water may also find its way beneath your shingles before freezing, causing them to be damaged, and lifted and speeding up deterioration of the roof boards below. Leaks can become commonplace with these issues, and costly repairs could be needed. Don't take the risk, ensure that your attic space is properly insulated, ventilated, and air sealed prior to the start of any extreme weather season.

The main issue with this type of blown in insulation in Chatsworth, is its inability to hold its shape over time, leading to a significantly reduced R-value. Cellulose is also not water resistant, and has been known to clump when wet, as it does not dry quickly. The possibility of mold growth is increased, with this product.

Spray foam has incredible expansion capabilities, able to seal most air leaks with minimal effort. Spray foam attic insulation in Chatsworth, has been known to cause irritations, and allergic reactions in certain people, so proper research should be done prior to purchasing. Spray foam should never be applied to dampened roof boards, as it can cause accelerated deterioration.

Q: How to ignore a .go file in a module? I am rewriting in Go a home-grade program of mine that was previously in Python, learning on the way. As I reconsider whole sections of the code, it would be great if I could ignore some .go files I wrote (they throw compilation errors which is OK as they are not synchronized with my latest approach to the problem).
I could move them out of the directory, or rename them but I was wondering whether there would be a more idiomatic way to ignore some .go files in a module directory?

A: Build tags fit perfectly to your use case.
A Build Constraint or also known as Build Tag is used to include or exclude files in a package during a build process. With this, we can build different types of builds from the same source code.
So if you want to exclude a file from the build process, give it a different Build Tag. For example if you use //go:build exclude at the top of the file when you perform go build it won't be included. Note that exclude can be any word.
For more details on the Build Tags check out the following article by Dave Cheney here
TLDR
Add
//go:build exclude for go v1.17 and above
// +build exclude
at the top of the file you wish to ignore.

Funding Granted for New Dance and Teaching Spaces
The College has been successful in its funding application to build a new state-of-the-art Dance Studio and additional Mathematics classroom.
Following successful planning permission in 2016, the College was awarded in excess of £500k from the government's Condition Improvement Fund, with works scheduled to begin in the summer of 2018.
Business Manager, Nick Hill and Teacher of Performing Arts and Dance, Sarah Wilkinson looking at plans for the new Dance Studio

The new architect-designed dance studio will include sprung floors, high ceilings and large floor space and will be constructed by a local contractor. The finished facility will be used for Performing Arts curriculum as well as being available to the local community after its completion in early 2019.
College Business Manager, Nick Hill, said of the funding grant; "We are extremely pleased to be able to announce this fantastic news. These new teaching and learning spaces will provide our students with the opportunity to maximise their potential and examination outcomes in these key areas of the curriculum.

GE To Build Largest U.S. Solar Factory In Colorado
Sarah Perez	@sarahintampa / 8 years
GE has announced plans to spend $600 million on a new solar factory located in the Denver suburb of Aurora, Colorado. The factory, which begins operations in 2012, will be capable of producing enough solar panels per year to generate 400 megawatts of power, or enough energy to power 80,000 homes. When completed, the factory will be bigger than 11 football fields – soon to be the largest factory of its kind in the U.S.
The business will also bring 355 jobs to Colorado plus 100 more positions at GE's research facility in upstate New York.
The company is retrofitting and expanding an existing 200,000 sq. foot former L'Oreal Worldwide warehouse, a project which will require a $300 million investment. Over the next two years, GE will double the building's size.
Colorado is already the manufacturing site for GE Energy's thin film solar pilot line, a joint technology development between GE's Global Research Center and PrimeStar Solar, a company GE acquired in April. The new factory is located near this smaller, 30 MW facility and a GE solar research center. GE says the location will enable an accelerated start-up schedule with production equipment installation beginning in January 2012.
The new factory will produce thin film solar panels made from cadium telluride, which are cheaper than traditional crystalline silicon panels. It's the same technology as produced by First Solar, the largest solar company in the world by market cap.
The panels are lighter, which helps ease installation. They're also large, which helps to lower the total system cost by reducing the amount of racking and electrical components required. Shipments to utilities and commercial customers will start in early 2013, according to the annoucement.
GE's plan for solar is similar to the one for its wind business, a space the company entered in 2002 – that is, it plans to grow through both technology and scale. GE now has more than 27 gigawatts of wind and solar resources installed around the world.


In March 2010, Tiesta Tea was born. Its products are now sold in about 7,000 stores, including Safeway, Winn Dixie, Albertsons, Sprouts Farmers Market, Hannaford, Price Chopper, Target, Bed, Bath & Beyond, and The Vitamin Shoppe. With revenue in the millions, the company employs nine people, all of whom are vested owners and make good salaries, says Tannous.

Ceuta (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈθeuta]; Arabic: سبتة, Sebtah) is an 18.5-square-kilometre (7.1 sq mi) autonomous city of Spain and an exclave located on the north coast of Africa, sharing a western border with Morocco. Separated from the Iberian peninsula by the Strait of Gibraltar, Ceuta lies along the boundary between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Ceuta, along with the Spanish exclave Melilla, is one of two permanently inhabited Spanish territories in mainland Africa. It was part of Cádiz province until 14 March 1995, when the city's Statute of Autonomy was passed.
Ceuta, like Melilla, was a free port before Spain joined the European Union. As of 2011, it has a population of 78,674.[2] Its population consists of Christians, Muslims (chiefly Arabic speakers), and small minorities of Jews and Indian Hindus. Spanish is the official language. The majority of the city's population are ethnic Spanish who are opposed to the idea of being ruled by Morocco.[3] A poll conducted by Instituto Opina found that 87.9% of people from mainland Spain consider the two cities (Ceuta and Melilla) to be Spanish.[4]

Ceuta's location has made it an important commercial trade and military way-point for many cultures, beginning with the Carthaginians in the fifth century BC, who called the city Abyla. It was not until the Romans took control of the region in AD 42 that the port city, then named Septa, assumed an almost exclusive military purpose. It changed hands again approximately 400 years later, when Vandal tribes ousted the Romans. After being controlled by the Visigoths, it then became an outpost of the Byzantine Empire (in Greek Abyla, Ancient Greek: Άβυλα).
Around 710, as Muslim armies approached the city, its Byzantine governor, Julian (described as King of the Ghomara) changed his allegiance, and exhorted the Muslims to invade the Iberian Peninsula. Under the leadership of the Berber general Tariq ibn Ziyad, the Muslims used Ceuta as a staging ground for an assault on Visigothic Iberian Peninsula. After Julian's death, the Berbers took direct control of the city, which the indigenous Berber tribes resented. They destroyed Ceuta during the Kharijite rebellion led by Maysara al-Matghari in 740.
Ceuta lay in ruins until it was resettled in the ninth century by Mâjakas, chief of the Majkasa Berber tribe, who started the short-lived Banu Isam dynasty.[5] His great-grandson briefly allied his tribe with the Idrisids, but the Banu Isam rule ended in 931 when he abdicated in favor of Abd ar-Rahman III, the Umayyad Caliph of Cordoba. Ceuta reverted to Moorish Andalusian rule in 927 along with Melilla, and later Tangier, in 951.
Chaos ensued with the fall of the Umayyad caliphate in 1031. Following this Ceuta and the rest of Muslim Spain were controlled by successive North African dynasties. Starting in 1084, the Almoravid Berbers ruled the region until 1147, when the Almohads conquered the land. Apart from Ibn Hud's rebellion of 1232, they ruled until the Tunisian Hafsids established control. The Hafsids' influence in the west rapidly waned, and Ceuta's inhabitants eventually expelled them in 1249. After this, a period of political instability persisted, under competing interests from the Kingdom of Fez and the Kingdom of Granada. The Kingdom of Fez finally conquered the region in 1387, with assistance from the Crown of Aragon.
In 1415, during the Battle of Ceuta, the city was captured by the Portuguese during the reign of John I of Portugal. The Benemerine sultan besieged the city in 1418 but was defeated. Phillip II (King of Spain 1556-1598), ascended the Portuguese throne in 1580 and Spanish kings of Portugal governed Ceuta for 60 years (Iberian Union). During this time, Ceuta attracted many residents of Spanish origin.[6] Ceuta became the only city of the Portuguese Empire that sided with Spain when Portugal regained its independence in 1640, and war broke out between the two countries.
On 1 January 1668 by the Treaty of Lisbon, King Afonso VI of Portugal recognized the formal allegiance of Ceuta to Spain and formally ceded Ceuta to King Carlos II of Spain. However, the originally Portuguese flag and coat of arms of Ceuta remained unchanged, and the modern-day Ceuta flag features the configuration of the Portuguese shield. The flag has the same background as that of the flag of the city of Lisbon.
In July 1936, General Francisco Franco took command of the Spanish Army of Africa and rebelled against the Spanish republican government; his military uprising led to the Spanish Civil War of 1936-1939. Franco transported troops to mainland Spain in an airlift using transport aircraft supplied by Germany and Italy. Ceuta became one of the first casualties of the uprising: General Franco's rebel nationalist forces repressed the citizens of Ceuta, while at the same time the city came under fire from the air and sea forces of the official republican government.[7]
A monument was erected to honour Francisco Franco; the Llano Amarillo, inaugurated on 13 July 1940, still stands. The tall obelisk has been abandoned, but the shield symbols of the Falange and Imperial Eagle remain visible.[8]
When Spain recognized the independence of Spanish Morocco in 1956, Ceuta and the other plazas de soberanía remained under Spanish rule. Spain considered them integral parts of the Spanish state, but Morocco has disputed this point.
Culturally, modern Ceuta is part of the Spanish region of Andalusia. It was attached to the province of Cádiz until 1925, the Spanish coast being only 20 km away. It is a cosmopolitan city, with a large ethnic Berber Muslim minority as well as Sephardic Jewish and Hindu minorities.[9]
On 5 November 2007, King Juan Carlos I visited the city, sparking great enthusiasm from the local population and protests from the Moroccan government.[10] It was the first time a Spanish head of state had visited Ceuta in 80 years.
Since 2010, Ceuta (and Melilla) have declared the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha or Feast of the Sacrifice, as an official public holiday. It is the first time a non-Christian religious festival has been officially celebrated in Spain since the Reconquista.[11][12]
Ecclesiastical history
The Catholic Diocese of Ceuta existed from 1417 to 1879. It was a suffragan of the Patriarchate of Lisbon until 1675 and the end of the Iberian Union, when Ceuta chose to remain linked to the king of Spain. Since then it has been a suffragan of the archbishopric of Seville.[13] The Diocese of Tanger was suppressed and incorporated to that of Ceuta in 1570.[14] In 1851, upon the signature of the concordat between the Holy See and Spain, the diocese of Ceuta was agreed to be suppressed, being combined into the diocese of Cádiz y Ceuta.[15] Until then in the diocese of Cádiz y Algeciras, the bishop was usually the apostolic administrator of Ceuta. The agreement was not implemented until 1879.
Ceuta is dominated by Monte Anyera, a hill along its western frontier with Morocco. The mountain is guarded by a Spanish fort.
Monte Hacho on the Peninsula de Almina overlooking the port is one of the possible locations for the southern Pillars of Hercules, of Greek legend (the other possibility being Jebel Musa).

Since 1995, Ceuta is, along with Melilla, one of the two autonomous cities of Spain.[17] Ceuta is known officially in Spanish as Ciudad Autónoma de Ceuta (English: Autonomous City of Ceuta), with a rank between a standard Spanish city and an autonomous community. Ceuta is part of the territory of the European Union. The city was a free port before Spain joined the European Union in 1986. Now it has a low-tax system within the European Monetary System. As of 2006, its population was 75,861.
Ceuta has held elections every four years since 1979, for its 25-seat assembly. The leader of its government was the Mayor until the Autonomy Statute had the title changed to the Mayor-President. In the most recent election in 2011, the People's Party won 18 seats, keeping Juan Jesús Vivas as Mayor-President, which he has been since 2001. The remaining seats are held by the regionalist Caballas Coalition (4) and the Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE, 3).[18]
Ceuta is subdivided into 63 barriadas (English: neighbourhoods), such as Barriada de Berizu, Barriada de P. Alfonso, Barriada del Sarchal, and El Hacho.[19][20][21]
Due to its small population, Ceuta elects only one member of the Congress of Deputies, the lower house of the Spanish legislature. Since the 2011 election, this post is held by Francisco Márquez de la Rubia of the PP.[22]
Dispute with Morocco
The government of Morocco has repeatedly called for Spain to transfer the sovereignty of Ceuta and Melilla, along with uninhabited islets such as the islands of Alhucemas, Velez and the Perejil island, drawing comparisons with Spain's territorial claim to Gibraltar.[3] In both cases, the national governments and local populations of the disputed territories reject these claims by a large majority.[23] The Spanish position states that both Ceuta and Melilla are integral parts of Spain, and have been since the 16th century, centuries prior to Morocco's independence from France in 1956, whereas Gibraltar, being a British Overseas Territory, is not and never has been part of the United Kingdom.[24] Furthermore, Ceuta has been under Christian rule (Spanish or Portuguese) for a longer period than major cities in peninsular Spain such as Málaga, Granada or Almería, and has been so since before the creation of the Spanish state in 1475. Morocco denies these claims and maintains that the Spanish presence in Ceuta and the other presidios on its coast is a remnant of the colonial past which should be ended. However, the United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories do not consider those Spanish territories to be colonies, whereas it does declare Gibraltar as a non-decolonized territory.[25] The claims on the Spanish territories is part of the well known, bigger nationalist movement Greater Morocco, that includes Mauritania, western Sahara, north of Mali and several Algerian provinces.[26]
The official currency of Ceuta is the euro. It is part of a special low tax zone in Spain.[27] Ceuta is one of two Spanish port cities on the northern shore of Africa, along with Melilla. They are historically military strongholds, free ports, oil ports, and also fishing and smuggling centers.[28] Today the economy of the city depends heavily on its port (now in expansion) and its industrial and retail centres.[29] Ceuta Heliport is now used to connect the city to mainland Spain by air.
Due to its location, Ceuta is home to a mixed ethnic/religious population. The four main religious groups are Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Hindu. Approximately 50% of the population is Spanish/Christian, approximately 49% Berber/Muslim, 0.25% Jewish, 0.25% Hindu, and 0.10% Roma.[30]
Spanish is the primary and official language of the enclave. Arabic is also widely spoken, as well as French and Berber. A significant minority speaks English because of the proximity to Gibraltar.
The city receives high numbers of ferries each day, most from Spain. Ferries cross from Algeciras in Andalucia in the south of Spain.
Occasionally, cruise ships stop by. There is a bus service throughout the city which does not pass into neighbouring Morocco.
Ceuta has a regular helicopter service from Ceuta Heliport to mainland Spain.
The closest airport is Sania Ramel Airport.
In 1415, on reconquering the city from the Muslims, the Portuguese started the construction of the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Ceuta was established two years later, and was amalgamated with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Cadiz y Ceuta, in 1851. The present cathedral, from the late 17th century, combines baroque and neo-classical elements.

After 12 seasons in the NHL, forward Travis Moen has announced his retirement. The NHLPA made the announcement on Tuesday.
The 34-year-old spent bits and pieces of the last two seasons with the Dallas Stars and saw a steady decline in ice time, appearing in just 23 games last season and putting up just two assists.
In 747 career regular season games with the Stars, Montreal Canadiens, San Jose Sharks, Anaheim Ducks, and Chicago Blackhawks, Moen has 136 points.
His best season came with the Ducks in 2006-2007, when he put up 21 points – including 11 goals. That marked the only time in his career he reached double-digit goals.
In 2009-2010, he put up 19 points with the Canadiens and scored two short-handed goals.
Moen also won the Stanley Cup with the Ducks in 2007, where he put up seven goals and five helpers in 21 playoff games. Without a doubt, that period marked the most stellar run of his career and set an offensive bar that he never met again.
Moen was drafted by the Calgary Flames in 2000, but he never played a single game with the club. He remained a member of the WHL Kelowna Rockets during that period and was signed by the Blackhawks as a free agent, making his NHL in the 2003-2004 season after a stint in the AHL with Norfolk.
In the end, injuries probably hastened his retirement. Moen had a broken wrist and lower body injuries last season and that diminished his capacity.

Should I Cut Back on Salt?
Salt (sodium chloride) is the most common way people get sodium. Sodium is naturally present in most foods, and salt is added to many canned and prepared foods. The body uses sodium to keep the blood, muscles, and nerves healthy. Too much is not good, however, and can make your blood pressure go up.
Most people eat a lot more sodium than they need. If you are over age 50, aim for 1500 mg of sodium—about 2/3 of a teaspoon of table salt. That includes all the sodium you get in your food and drink, not just what you add when cooking or eating. If your doctor tells you to use less salt, cut back on salty snacks and processed foods.
Try adding spices, herbs, and lemon juice to add flavor to your food. Also make sure your diet is rich in foods containing potassium. That will help counter the effects of salt on your blood pressure. Some foods that have a lot of potassium are leafy green vegetables, fruit from vines like tomatoes, bananas, and root vegetables like potatoes.

I wish you all happy holidays and merry christmas (depending on your flavour of belief).
DH and I usually don't celebrate christmas and he has to work anyways. But to all of you who celebrate any kind of holiday, all my best wishes.
On a more sober side note: Mum took another fall yesterday and is now at the hospital, waiting for her surgery. Another femur fracture. Bad news for an 86 year old.

Q: Adding vendor information to MANIFEST.MF using sbt-assembly I'm using sbt-assembly to create a runnable jar, but my application crashes because jai imageio loads the vendor name from the MANIFEST.MF file.  If I manually edit the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file from:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: myMainClass

to
Implementation-Vendor: foo
Implementation-Title: bar
Implementation-Version: 1.0
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: myMainClass

Everything works fine.
How do I configure sbt or sbt-assembly to include that additional implementation information in the jar?  Or is there another way around this?
(p.s: The reference to where it looks up the package information: http://www.java.net/external?url=http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/Java-Document/6.0-JDK-Modules/Java-Advanced-Imaging/com/sun/media/imageioimpl/common/PackageUtil.java.htm)

A: I am using sbt 0.11.2 and,  sbt adds the manifest information to the jar without any additional configuration :), I am not sure why you have that problem.
This is a sample MANIFEST.MF of squryl jar which I built locally
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Implementation-Vendor: org.squeryl
Implementation-Title: squeryl
Implementation-Version: 0.9.5-rc1
Implementation-Vendor-Id: org.squeryl
Specification-Vendor: org.squeryl
Specification-Title: squeryl
Specification-Version: 0.9.5-rc1
Main-Class: org.squeryl.logging.UsageProfileConsolidator

but this can be configured in your build.sbt or Build.scala
for example
    import sbt._
    import Keys._
    import sbt.Package.ManifestAttributes

    //......

    //......

    lazy val baseSettings = Defaults.defaultSettings ++ Seq(
    version := ProjectVersion,
    organization := Organization,
    scalaVersion := ScalaVersion,
    packageOptions := Seq(ManifestAttributes(
                      ("Implementation-Vendor", "myCompany"),
                      ("Implementation-Title", "myLib"))))

A: The problem is that sbt assembly does not add the default keys to MANIFEST.MF. sbt package on the other hand does so, which his probably what Jestan Nirojan used.
I have created an issue for the sbt assembly plugin project on github. You might want to add a comment to increase the chance of it being fixed.

Billboard's Hot 100 Now Takes Into Account YouTube Views
The Billboard Hot 100 chart, a longstanding signifier of what's popular in pop music, has received a retooling for the modern age.
Starting now, YouTube views are now an official metric in determining what songs hit the Hot 100 chart.
"Billboard is now incorporating all official videos on YouTube captured by Nielsen's streaming measurement, including Vevo on YouTube, and user-generated clips that utilize authorized audio into the Hot 100 and the Hot 100 formula-based genre charts – Hot Country Songs, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, R&B Songs, Rap Songs, Hot Latin Songs, Hot Rock Songs and Dance/Electronic Songs – to further reflect the divergent platforms for music consumption in today's world," says Billboard.
That means that what you're seeing on the Hot 100 chart is now based on digital sales, physical sales, radio play, internet streaming, and now YouTube views.
The consequences of this decision are immediately apparent, as the Billboard Hot 100 chart's number one song is now Baauer's "Harlem Shake." The new trove of YouTube streaming data drove "Harlem Shake" to the #1 spot on the list in its debut week.
Billboard notes that the new YouTube data had an impact on other songs like "Gangnam Style" jumping from # 48 to #26 and Rihanna's "Stay" making the leap from #57 to #3.
"This announcement marks a big step in accurately reflecting how music lovers are finding their new favorite songs. we hope this news will excite our users, who have helped us discover some of the biggest stars and songs of the past seven years," says YouTube.

I guess it is possible to test custom roms on emulator. But is it possible to test every custom rom on emulator ? I want to modify ROMs and test it on the PC first before flashing because I m not very good at ROM mods atm. Is there some other way also to test custom roms on PC.


Don't eat this. It looks and smells delicious, with banana and oats on top and smelling all cinnamony and what not. But, no good will come of taking a bite. TONS of good will come from taking it into the bathtub or shower with you, however.

Compass under fire in UN deals scandal
Updated: 10:28 EST, 1 February 2006
AN internal investigation by catering giant Compass into a procurement scandal involving its bidding for UN contracts has fiercely condemned the company's lack of checks and balances.
Compass hired lawyers Freshfields and accountants Ernst & Young to probe allegations that Compass's ESS subsidiary had illegally gained inside information on rival bidders for major catering contracts for UN peacekeeping forces.
The investigators found what they described as 'serious irregularities'. The Evening Standard understands five contracts, supplying troops in countries including Cyprus, Sudan, Burundi, Liberia and the Lebanon, are involved.
But they found the actual wrongdoing was limited to the work of three employees, all of whom were fired soon after the investigation started.
A Compass spokesman said the full findings would not be published. However, the company is thought to have substantially agreed with the allegations, which first came to light in a Fox News investigation in the US.
This found emails sent to Compass executive Andy Seiwert gave details of bids going into the UN procurement department. The most senior executive to be fired was Peter Harris, Seiwert's direct boss.
He is alleged to have been involved in buying an intermediary company, IHC Services, which had previously leaked UN tender details to ESS. Fox News has published documents on its website showing Harris's signature on the deal.
The Freshfields investigation today concluded that Compass had never owned shares in IHC, suggesting Harris acted alone.
A statement said: 'The considerable work undertaken by Freshfields and Ernst & Young gives no reason to believe that these issues extend beyond those individuals to other parts of ESS or to the wider Compass Group of companies.'

However, Compass admitted the report had shown the operation was too much at arm's length. 'We have taken away the autonomy of the business and tightened central controls. More robust systems are in place,' said a spokesman.
But the scandal has put further pressure on the under-fire management, led by outgoing chief executive Mike Bailey, for whom Compass is seeking a successor.
Compass is one of the many companies alleged to have been involved in a raft of procurement scandals at Kofi Annan's embattled UN.
The company is co-operating with criminal investigations in the US and a wider UN probe. Britain's Serious Fraud Office is considering launching its own investigation.
The Freshfields/E&Y review was ordered by Compass audit committee chairman Steve Lucas, who described the affair as 'regrettable'
Senior management at ESS now reports directly to Compass finance director Andrew Martin.
