Valverde hired as new Barcelona boss
Spanish coach Ernesto Valverde is the man charged with reviving Barcelona's fortunes after being confirmed as the Catalan giants' new boss on a two-year deal on Monday.
"Valverde has the ability, the judgement, the knowledge and the experience. He promotes the youth players and he has a Barça way," club president Josep Maria Bartomeu said at a press conference.
Valverde, whose contract will include an option for a third season in charge, will be officially unveiled on Thursday.
Valverde, 53, a former Barca player who left Athletic Bilbao after four years in charge last week, replaces Luis Enrique with the task of getting the most out of a star-studded squad containing Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez.
Luis Enrique signed off his three seasons in charge with a ninth trophy of his reign in Saturday's Copa del Rey final against Alaves.
However, the daily grind of the pressure at the Camp Nou forced him to announce back in March he would leave at the end of the campaign even before Barca missed out on both La Liga and the Champions League this season.
Despite not being a household name outside of Spain, Valverde has a wealth of coaching experience having taken charge of over 500 games.
His only honours as a player came in a two-year spell at Barcelona under Johann Cruyff between 1988 and 1990 where he lifted the Cup Winners' Cup and the Copa del Rey.
However, Valverde has consistently got the best out of the resources at his disposal as a coach in two spells at both Athletic and Olympiakos and stints with Espanyol, Villarreal and Valencia.
Indeed he inflicted Luis Enrique's joint heaviest defeat as Barca boss with a 4-0 thrashing of the then European champions on the way to winning the Spanish Super Cup with Athletic in 2015.
And he also won three Greek titles in three seasons at Olympiakos.
Moreover, Valverde's calm and composed nature was favoured by the Barca board over the more fiery approach of the other leading candidate Jorge Sampaoli, who is expected to leave Sevilla to take over as Argentina boss.
"He has more experience than me. He should enjoy it," Luis Enrique said when asked what advice he would give Valverde after a Messi-inspired 3-1 win over Alaves in his final game in charge.
However, that win means Valverde will be handed a baptism of fire with his first two competitive games in charge likely to be against Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup in August.

ICEBlueButton
Put ICEBlueButton on it!
NEW! Free! ICEBlueButton
Available for iOS 7 & Android devices
Description: ICEBlueButton allows anyone to easily create an ICE (In Case of Emergency) record on their smartphone for themselves and their loved ones with easy entry of emergency medical data and contact information. Once an ICE record is created, the app generates a QR code unique to the individual profile attached to that record and a 4-digit number to unlock access to the individual ICE record. The QR code can be saved on the phone lock screen for immediate access by emergency responders. (The QR code can also be printed on stickers which can then, for example, be applied on a child's bike helmet or skateboard or, in another example, a magnet on the fridge of an elderly person's home).
In an emergency situation, medical personnel or attending bystanders can scan the ICEBlueButton QR code with any widely available QR code scanner and quickly learn of any medical conditions, allergies, other pertinent medical information, and the names and phone numbers of their listed emergency contacts. In addition to providing this critical information, when the QR code is scanned, ICEBlueButton automatically generates email Auto-Alerts to the emergency contacts listed for that individual, with the name of the person involved in the emergency and a map with the location of the emergency (Auto-Alerts are available with in-app purchases). Create any number of ICE records, i.e., one for yourself and ICE records for each member of your family.

Saturday marked the end of 17 different collegiate careers as well as the 2016 chapter of Curry College Football as Endicott College came to Walter M. Katz Field for an afternoon kickoff.
After a roller-coaster type of season, emotions were high before the first whistle. There was a serious hope that the Colonels could defeat their Commonwealth Coast Conference rival and end the season on a high note for the seniors.
Curry won the coin toss but deferred to the second half and the Gulls offense battled to a 33-yard field goal attempt on their first possession. The Colonels' special teams unit came through, and rushed kicker John Glaser to push the kick wide right.
On Senior Day, instead of junior Alex Corvese starting the game at quarterback like he has all season, Head Coach Skip Bandini gave the starting nod to senior Mike O'Hearn.
However, O'Hearn faltered in his first drive and threw an interception on his eighth play. Classmate and linebacker Sean Conroy picked him up though and jumped a slant route and ran 28 yards with the interception to open the scoring.
The crowd immediately erupted and gave thanks to Conroy on such a special day. The aftermath of the celebrations overshadowed a missed extra point, however, and Curry held a 6-0 lead.
Despite the Colonels changing the momentum, Endicott had no interest in falling behind. Its offense quickly found their groove, and scored their first touchdown of the day courtesy of a two-yard rush by running back Michael Scherer to take a 7-6 lead.
Although the ensuing Curry drive stalled, Mark Mrozek delivered a punt that was downed at the Gulls' one-yard line nearing the end of the first frame. However, looking at all 99 yards to work with, quarterback Joe Kalosky ended the drive scrambling for an eight-yard touchdown, two minutes into the second quarter.
Corvese returned to the field and developed a drive of his own to answer Endicott. D'Aundray Burcy took it in from seven yards out to bring the score to 14-13 with just over ten minutes to play in the first half.
Kalosky came back but had his drive cut short by junior Dan Farrell who forced a fumble that sophomore Aidan Cawley recovered at the Endicott 40. Corvese then needed only five plays to find sophomore Dylan Vieira-Owens to retake the lead, 20-14.
The Gulls responded with a seven-play, lateral-infused drive that ended in a score to give the ball back to Corvese and the offense. However, the Colonels were forced to punt and had said punt blocked to return the ball to Kalosky's hands, who scored right away from 16 yards out to make it 28-20 heading into halftime.
Since Curry deferred the coin toss, they started the second half on their own 33-yard line with only two quarters left. Corvese wasted no time and took ten plays to drive all 69 yards which ended with Jake Cawlina finding pay dirt on a 30-yard connection in his last game in the Purple and White.
The teams traded possessions until the final two minutes of the third quarter, when Endicott quickly took advantage of a short field and took a 35-27 lead nearing the final round.
The Colonels' next drive spanned the end of the third and beginning of the fourth quarter, but stalled to give the ball back to the Gulls. They scored on their next two possessions to increase their advantage to 49-27 before Corvese led one more scoring drive of his own to cut into the lead.
He leaned heavily on senior Anthony Nastasi who finished the day with 72 yards on nine catches in his final game. Corvese eventually ran it in himself from ten yards out to make the score 49-33 with a minute and a half left in many careers. Even though the points came with little time to change the outcome of the game, it was obvious the seniors appreciated the entire team's effort.
Curry got one more possession, and O'Hearn was given one more drive to finish out his career. The final play of the game was a four-yard connection to friend and classmate, Nastasi, who walked off Katz Field one last time with their brothers in shoulder pads.
The Colonels close the 2016 season 3-6, with a 1-6 record in CCC play. During a season full of both high-scoring and close affairs, it shows some insight into what the future holds for this program.
Even though so many impactful seniors are saying their goodbyes, many have left their footprint on this team. The leadership and maturity they showed on a weekly basis will be a model for future Colonels, as the program continues to chase that coveted championship.

Around the nation, their numbers are growing at state universities, private colleges and community colleges. Locally, at least 50 have registered this year at Ventura College, 18 at CSU Channel Islands and 10 at CLU.
Total numbers are unknown because the only figures come from college offices where disabled students can register for assistance. But those enrollments are easily double what they were five years ago, and officials believe many more are on campus who don't disclose they have autism or Asperger syndrome, which is included on the spectrum of autism disorders. Some consider Asperger's a separate disorder, while others believe it's high-functioning autism.
The trend has spawned books for students and parents, and business for private coaches who advise autistic students on how to navigate college life. Rutgers University, the Rochester Institute of Technology and CSU Channel Islands, among others, have developed special programs to help these students succeed.
It's a dramatic change from the 1960s, when many autistic people were more likely to be locked in institutions in California. The college trend is driven not only by the growing number of diagnosed people, but by early intervention programs, educators said.
"Behavioral therapy at an early age has really opened doors," said Ventura College teacher Steve Turner, who has worked with autistic people in various settings since the 1980s.

Q: Best approach/pratice to develop a client facing UI on a Jhipster microservice model? I created a microservice application wit a Registry, a Gateway and a Service(x)
What should be a best practice to create a client-face UI that consumes the APIs exposed by the services ?
Should I created a new one, or the develop my custom(fancy) UI on gateway ?

A: You can generate an entity on the microservice using jhipster:entity in microservice folder and then import this entity using jhipster:entity in the gateway folder.
JHipster will ask you if you want to import the entity from a microservice, say Yes and then type the path (relative or absolute) to your microservice.

Venomous stings (wasps, hornets, bees, ants, scorpions)
Bites (centipedes)
Furuncle-like lesions due to fly maggots or sand fleas in the skin
Linear creeping eruption due to a migrating larva
Ctenocephalides felis and Ctenocephalides canis are the most common species found on cats and dogs
Both species attack humans
The human flea is Pulex irritans
Bedbugs are found in crevices of beds or furniture
Ticks are usually picked up by brushing against low vegetation
Chiggers or red bugs are larvae of trombiculid mites
Bird and rodent mites
Larger than chiggers
Bites are multiple anywhere on the body
Mites in stored products
White and almost invisible
Infest products such as vanilla pods, sugar, straw, cottonseeds, cereals
Persons who handle these products may be attacked on the hands, forearms and sometimes on the feet
Caterpillars of moths with urticating hairs
Hairs are blown from cocoons or carried by emergent moths, causing severe and often seasonally recurrent outbreaks after mass emergence
The gypsy moth is a cause in eastern United States
Tungiasis
Due to the burrowing flea Tunga penetrans and found in Africa, the West Indies, South and Central America
The female burrows under the skin, sucks blood, swells to 0.5 cm, and then ejects her eggs onto the ground
Individual bites are often in clusters and tend to occur either on exposed parts (eg, midges and gnats) or under clothing, especially around the waist or at flexures (eg, small mites or insects in bedding or clothing)
The reaction is often delayed for 1–24 h or more
Pruritus is almost always present and may be all but intolerable once the patient starts to scratch
Secondary infection may follow scratching
Urticarial wheals are common; papules may become vesicular
Flea saliva and bedbugs produce papular urticaria in sensitized individuals
Chiggers or red bugs
A few species attack humans, often around the waist, ...

Tropical Storm Warning Issued for Jersey Shore, 'Fay' Could Bring 50mph Winds
Arrests at Brick Condos: Mom Interferes in Juvenile Drug Arrest; Busts for Guns and Prostitution
Tropical Storm Fay, July 9, 2020. (Credit: University of Wisconsin-Madison)
The formation of Tropical Storm Fay has prompted the National Hurricane Center to issue t Tropical Storm Warning from Cape May New Jersey northward to Watch Hill, R.I., the agency announced Thursday evening.
Fay is currently located 195 south of Ocean City, Md., and moving north at 7 m.p.h. It is packing 45 m.p.h. sustained winds; the minimum wind speed for named tropical storms is 39 m.p.h. A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours.
The National Weather Service office in Mount Holly issued an advisory stating the storm would pack winds between 39 and 57 m.p.h. with occasional strong gusts, though sustained winds will likely see a maximum speed of 50 m.p.h. A flash flood watch was simultaneously issued, with forecasters predicting between 1-3 inches of rain with the storm, with some areas seeing locally higher amounts.
Seas will run 7-8 feet Friday and Friday night, according to the NWS marine forecast, with east winds during the daytime and southwest winds at night blowing 35 to 45 knots.
As for timing, the flash flood warning is in place from 4 a.m. Friday through 8 p.m. Friday. That is when the bulk of the storm is expected to impact the Shore area. By Saturday morning, the storm should be moving out of the area, and skies will be partly sunny with a high of 83 degrees and the chance of a thunderstorm.


Creating a business plan is something every serious business owner or aspiring entrepreneur should do.
Too many entrepreneurs jump into a new business without enough research, planning, or forethought. While you need that kind of passion, inspiration, and drive to become successful in building a new company from scratch, you also need the ability to plan ahead, manage your finances, and avoid major pitfalls and financial setbacks along the way.
You will learn those skills when you research and write your business plan.
There are 8 major benefits to writing a business plan.
Writing the business plan will give you clarity. Going through the process of writing out your business plan will force you to think through all of your options and to choose the best direction for you and your business. Clarity is what separates successful business owners from unsuccessful business owners.
If you get nothing else out of writing your business plan, it'll be worth it because of the clarity you'll gain.
Writing a business plan forces you to plan your business strategies and goals. Successful entrepreneurs plan more and plan better than unsuccessful entrepreneurs.
"Planning" might sound like a boring word, but if it saves you $10,000 on construction costs or helps you avoid hiring an unnecessary person at $50,000 a year, those cost savings could mean the difference between bankruptcy and profitability.
Most new businesses fail because the founder didn't plan ahead in order to avoid completely unnecessary problems and financial setbacks. Writing a business plan could make the difference between success and failure for your company.
While writing your business plan you will naturally need to collaborate with others. You'll need to do some in-depth research and due diligence on your industry and business model. You'll need to make phone calls, read articles, talk to potential customers, suppliers, and competitors. This will allow you to take other peoples' ideas and use them to your benefit.
This will keep you objective when you analyze what's going on in the industry and allow you to see unmet needs in the market and opportunities for growth.
It's very hard to raise money for a business without a well-written business plan. Private investors, banks, venture capitalists, and other institutional investors will often require you to have a business plan in place before they'll invest. The business plan should provide a potential investor or lender to the business with enough information to learn enough about the business to make an informed decision as to whether or not they should invest in the business.
Creating pro forma financial statements for your business will force you to think through all your assumptions about the business. This will help you view the profitability and potential for the business objectively and critically.
Don't just put some numbers you got out of thin air in a spreadsheet and call it a financial projection. You need to get quotes and research the cost of everything.
For example, if you were starting a restaurant, you would have to get quotes from suppliers for the cost of everything including kitchen equipment, stoves, construction costs, furniture, silverware, dishes, napkins, to-go containers, cups, lids, every single ingredient you'll be using, etc.
If it sounds like too much work to get quotes on all those items, then starting a business will definitely be too much work for you so you might as well quit right now and save yourself the money and heartache.
Your business plan should give you guidance as you grow your business. It should have an "Operations Plan" or "Operations Schedule" that details the steps you need to take to get the business off the ground.
As an example, if you were starting a restaurant you would have a timeline of when you would lease the building, how long renovations would take, a schedule for the opening day, and then an estimate of the day you break-even, just to name a few of the steps you would take.
One of the major differences between successful entrepreneurs and unsuccessful entrepreneurs is that successful ones measure results. Your business plan should provide you with a financial projection that you can use to measure your results against. If you beat your projections, then you're doing well.
If you fall short, you either made bad projections or you're failing to execute the business properly.
Projections are never going to be 100% accurate, and you'll need to constantly update your projections as new information comes in. You need a goal to aim for, and you need to know if you're on track. That's what projections provide you in business. If you can't take the time to make projections before you start the business, you'll likely fail in business because you'll need to constantly update cash flow projections and other financial projections once your business is up and running to make sure you can handle future growth and challenges.
This is one aspect of the business plan that most people don't understand. Your business plan is a marketing tool. You need to use it that way! You should send a copy of your business plan to anyone who could potentially invest in your business and anyone who might be remotely interested in learning about your business.
Now, I'm not telling you to solicit strangers and make them read your business plan. But if you know someone who may be interested in what you're doing, then it's only kind and appropriate for you to give them a call or send them an e-mail explaining that you're starting a business and that you'd appreciate it if they gave you feedback on your business plan. Often, you will find your best investors and advisors come from those in your circle of influence whom you send your plan to (and you never know who they might share your business plan with).
Success in business is built one relationship at a time. If you can start a few great relationships with folks who have read your business plan, that could lead to new referral partners and customers for your business. And that alone could make the difference for your company between success and failure.
Now that you know the 8 major benefits in writing a business plan, it's time to get to work!

In a recent blog, our Anaheim-based employment lawyers reported on employee misclassication, a nationwide problem affecting workers who are misclassified as "exempt" instead of "non-exempt" by employers, often to avoid complying with state and federal wage and hour laws, like paying overtime, providing minimum wage, rest breaks or meal periods, and workers' compensation, among other benefits.
Earlier this year, as our Irvine, California labor attorneys also discussed in a blog, the Employee Misclassification Prevention Act (EMPA), was introduced into the Senate by Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH), with a companion legislation introduced into the House of Representatives by U.S. Representative Lynn Woolsey (D-CA). The EMPA, would amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, and ensure that misclassified workers have access to these fair labor standards, worker safeguards, and worker's compensation benefits, by penalizing employers who attempt to incorrectly classify employees as independent contractors.
According to Iowa Senator Tom Harkin, who is also the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Chairman, employee misclassification robs employees of important labor protections, and cheats the federal and state governments out of tax revenues. The list of states fighting the practice of employee misclassification is rapidly growing, with state legislation being passed to eliminate the misclassification of workers by imposing criminal penalties on employers who intentionally classify their employees as "independent contractors, or "exempt."
In May of this year, Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell signed into law the Public Act No. 10-12, implementing EMPA recommendations. The act increases criminal and civil penalties on employers for misclassifying employers as independent contractors, and became effective on October 1, 2010. Other states imposing criminal penalties for employee misclassification include New York, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, Delaware, New Jersey and Maryland, and Illinois, among others.
Earlier this month, Governor Edward G. Rendell of Pennsylvania, signed the Construction Workplace Misclassification Act (H.B. 400) to make it a criminal offense, a third degree felony, for a construction industry contractor to willfully and knowingly engage in employee misclassification.
In August of this year, New York's Governor David Paterson signed in legislature that also targets the construction industry--the Construction Industry Fair Play Act. The law, which becomes effective this month, provides that any person working for a contractor will be classified as an employee, unless the person is a separate business entity, or unless they meet a specific set of criteria. Any contractor who willfully fails to classify a worker properly will be subject to civil and criminal penalties.


My little man is amazing me with his increasing vocabulary. I can't imagine just learning a language [Amharic in his case] and all of a sudden being dropped into a completely new language with 2 "white" people [of course, Brian's brown, but that doesn't matter to him]. He's become a pro at parroting words. He's not communicating more than 1-2 words at a time, but he's definitely learning to communicate and understanding significantly more. The other day I asked Judah, "Can you get Addise's water and bring it to her?" HE DID! Obedient and super smart.
His tantrums have also dramatically lessened now that he can communicate better - for obvious reasons! With the help of baby sign language and his ever-growing-vocabulary, he's just a much happier kid. He gets SOOOO proud of himself when he learns a new word. Yesterday he said "veggie straws" and giggled with immense pride, especially when I called his Daddy in to hear him share his new triumph.
Our social worker sobered us with the reality that it will probably take 4-6 months total [we've had him 2.5 months] for Judah to catch up to a "normal" 2 1/2 year old's language ability. **Experts calculate 1-2 months for the child's age. Judah was 2 1/2 years old when we got him. That's discouraging, but WOW what a long way we've come the past few months.
Enjoy the 47 seconds of pure adorableness...he's really good at saying the letter "p". The video's ending is quintessential of a 2 1/2 year old's willingness to cooperate with a crazy momma.

How Tesla Makes Its Presence Felt While Barely Spending Money on Ads
By EV Annex Dot Com
Filed Under Innovation, Cars, Data, Elon Musk & Money
Tesla is a completely unique auto brand.
Instead of spending money on advertising like every other carmaker, Tesla spends money on making its products better.
In the increasingly transparent digital era we live in, this appears to be a winning formula.
Back in 2016, Global Equities research estimated that Tesla spent just $6 per car on advertising. This was unheard of at the time. The second lowest brand in the survey was Toyota at $246 per car, and the highest was Jaguar at more than $3,000 per car.
Tesla spends a fraction of the advertising dollars of its competition, yet has signifcantly higher demand for its vehicles. Name one other automaker that has generated a 500,000-unit backlog for a car nobody could test drive.
In October 2017, I tallied up Tesla's social media following on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram relative to 11 other mainstream auto brands.
The results were impressive. Despite being by far the newest brand, having the fewest cars on the road, and spending the least on marketing, Tesla had over seven million fans. This ranked the company ninth out of the 12 brands.
Although Tesla's aggregate following was in the lower tier, its engagement — comments and likes per post — was among the highest of any of the brands in the study. This led me to conclude that Tesla's social following was generated organically — versus through paid advertising campaigns — and growing rapidly.
Tesla's aggregate fans rose by 2.4 million in the past five months, the second fastest out of all the brands, after Mercedes-Benz that added 2.8 million.
Now about 5 months later, I recalculated the followings, and the results were staggering.
These results speak for themselves. Social media data is telling us that Tesla is gaining relevance and growing brand equity faster than any of its competition.
On a percentage basis, the growth of Tesla's social media following absolutely dwarfed every other brand
What's even more interesting is that if we include Elon Musk's personal accounts in this study, the company's CEO actually makes Tesla's social media growth look paltry. In the same period Elon Musk grew his social following on just Twitter and Instagram by 9.8 million to 26.2 million total, an increase of 60 percent.
The combination of Tesla's 9.5 million fans and Musk's 26.2 million, would put Tesla on par with the two most followed brands in the auto world, BMW at 37 million and Mercedes-Benz at 36.7 million.
Tesla's social media marketing machine is a huge asset.
The trend of Tesla's social presence organically growing faster than any of its competition is poised to accelerate in the coming years. The upcoming launch of the Roadster 2 could be a another catalyst increasing brand equity.
Having the ability to speak directly to consumers via social media allows Tesla to allocate dramatically fewer resources to marketing than its competition. This is a key differentiator in Tesla's business model that will directly lead to higher operating margins in the long term.

"Through engagement with our mining industry, MABC and Foresight are creating an opportunity to demonstrate the commitment of B.C.'s mining sector to environmental stewardship and best practices."
"Industry Challenges are a fantastic way to energize innovation," said Jeanette Jackson, CEO of Foresight, Canada's cleantech accelerator. "By connecting corporate leaders facing sustainability hurdles with market-ready cleantech innovators, we can accelerate Canada's path to a green economy. Solutions for this Challenge could have enormous environmental and economic benefits."
"Continuous improvement is a foundational principle of British Columbia's mining sector, and the innovation challenge is another example of our willingness to embrace new and emerging technologies," said Michael Goehring, President and CEO of MABC. "Identifying new ways to reduce water use at the mine site supports our industry's commitment to responsible mining. I'm looking forward to seeing what new ideas emerge from the Challenge."
Foresight Canada will host an information webinar for prospective participants on January 21, 2022. Interested organizations can register for the webinar here.
The Challenge is open to all categories of applicants and project collaborators, including technology developers, academic institutions, research laboratories, multinational enterprises, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The proposed solution must be between Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 6-9, according to Innovation Canada's definitions.
"Innovation is critical to finding new and better ways to produce the metals and minerals essential to our modern world in the most environmentally and socially responsible manner possible," said Marcia Smith, Senior Vice President, Sustainability & External Affairs, Teck. "We're excited to partner with the B.C. Government and industry peers to spur new ideas and breakthroughs to help further enhance water stewardship in our industry."
"Newcrest is proud to support MABC's Mining Innovation Challenge, as its aims are strongly aligned with our own corporate values. Innovation and problem-solving are fundamental to the long-term sustainability of our business – not just for Newcrest, but for the industry as a whole," said Jon Gaunt, General Manager of Newcrest Red Chris Mining Limited. "We look forward to this initiative's successes, and the potential for ground-breaking and scalable solutions to strengthen environmental stewardship in BC and beyond."
Organizations need to declare their participation by February 18, 2022 and final submissions are due on May 12, 2022. The winner will be announced in June 2022. For more information, including the evaluation process, complete timeline and Challenge Statement, visit the project website.

I get an address error when I call any function (offset + 0, offset + 2 or offset + 4).
As I said my brain isn't really working due to lurgy , realised my mistake after I posting, will sort out an updated inc file or something.
Edited by LinkoVitch, Mon Apr 15, 2019 8:11 AM.
This cold is really destroying my ability to function, sorry I only just read you last message. That blob is full of fail sorry. I have a working version in the pipes at the moment now. Just tidying up complete with appropriate include file etc. Will get it to you hopefully shortly.
OK, attached a working version, complete with support files and example.
If you look at the `reloc-main.s` and compare to the main.s code you can see the difference in calls, also use the `u235se-rel.inc` for referencing the variables in the SE once it is loaded into the DSP.
Previous crash you had was probably due to me being a numpty and leaving a header on the binary blob! oops! Bloody colds!
But I've some issues, some sounds are ok, but others sound noisy or like duplicated.
Edited by swapd0, Tue Apr 16, 2019 8:06 AM.
Are all your samples 8bit signed samples? At the moment there is only support for signed samples. If you are using 16bit or unsigned samples these can sound pretty terrible. If you want me to have a look at the samples in question email them over to me.
1 - game start sample it's noisy.
2 - 'Help me' sample ok, but it's like it plays two times, you can hear "Help... Help me", it's weird.
3 - I've a function that plays a sample in a "ring" (channel 0, channel 1, channel 2... , channel 7, channel 0...) and depending on the channel they sound with a lower volume. It's weird because I've a table with each channel volume and all are set to 64.
I've tested that the alignment it's ok, all samples are created into the heap and unpacked from the cartridge, and my malloc routines align the data to 32 bytes.
I need to do more testing with other games.
Edited by swapd0, Tue Apr 16, 2019 11:12 AM.
Here is a patched binary blob for you anyway, should work fine with the inc you have already, but fixes the bugs I mentioned.
Your current issues do sound very weird! can't think of a reason for any of those issues if they worked on previous engine versions, I've not made any changes to the core of the engine for the tweaks in the version you have.
I have tried your new package within the ELF format and I have the same issues as the previous package.
I got some warnings in u235se.inc, not a big deal but just had the wish to report them.
The symbol <U235SE_sfxplaylist_ptr> is defined 2 times; the remaining warnings are redefinition symboles: U235SE_ptr_sample_bank, U235SE_playmod and a_vde.
There are also various imported symbols not referenced but doesn't prevent the assembly.
The doubly defined symbols are likely due to you having the u235se.inc file included multiple times within your source. I am not 100% if the ELF object is correctly generated I haven't put much time into looking at that, sorry.
You could use the binary blob version instead however, this removes the need for you to link against the SoundEngine and you can just include it as binary.
It's weird because I've a table with each channel volume and all are set to 64.
Sorry, just noticed I actually have 2 bug cards raised for these exact issues in my bugs list. So they are still active. I will try to remove one or both of them with the actual release of 0.24 which hopefully I will do in a shortish amount of time. I was just posting those zip files here for swapd0's project so they were not holding him back.
I've modified the reloc-main.s to use my sound engine and I've seen the following issues, it should only play sounds with button 1 & button 2.
- Press several times 1 and you'll hear the same sound but sightly different.
- If you press 2... nothing happens, I've looked at the code and I haven't found the error, you should hear "Help me".
Edited by swapd0, Wed Apr 17, 2019 7:41 AM.
I will have a proper lookie at this later, but from my 1st quick scan though, why are you defining sample banks with only one sample each time? That is possibly going to cause weird problems.
Then you can call each sample number to play it, either at the freq in the bank or a specified freq (depending on instruction).
The only time you need to set a bank is if you have multiple sample banks and need to switch to another, once it is set, it is not changed. This isn't terribly clear in the example code, I'll add a note to rectify that.
Ok, I thought that I had to declare a sample bank for each sample, but it's a sample bank, so you can declare many samples in a row. I misunderstood the manual.
With an example with two samples on the same bank it's enough to know how it works.
sorry for delay, finally gotten around to playing with this on real hardware.
1st issue of only one sample playing (in the case of your example code). This is due to you using multiple sound banks, in that a sound bank MUST be Double-Phrase aligned (we wipe out the low nibble for the set command). So your first bank is happening to be OK, but the second isn't.
I am trying to figure out why the pauline sample seems to play at half speed, that is completely bizarre!
And the fix for the slow playback is that the defines for 24KHZ playback rate are significantly out! If you switch to the default 16kHz, it sounds correct. I'll add that to the bugs list also.
Actually scratch that sorry. Took me a while to fathom.. The slow sounding samples is due to you changing the playback_rate and period AFTER the SE code has been started. These need to be set After the initNTSC/initPAL but before you actually start the DSP. The values used setup the timers for sample playback and are used to calculate the synthetic frequencies, so if you change them after the timers are set.. weirdness.
Sorry it took me so long to get to this.

Seamus Power is a two-time winner on the PGA Tour
"I am really pleased with the players who will form the Great Britain and Ireland team next year," Fleetwood said. "Having the experience of Shane [Lowry] and Tyrrell [Hatton] will be invaluable for the rest of the team in a match play environment but I think we are really strong throughout the team.
"We have proven winners in some of the biggest DP World Tour events and it will be great to have Seamus [Power] with us following his excellent start to the season in America."
Tommy Fleetwood will captain Great Britain and Ireland at the Hero Cup
Molinari has 2018 Ryder Cup winner Alex Noren and Belgium's Thomas Pieters – who scored four points on his debut for Team Europe in 2016 – in his Continental Europe side, with Austrian Sepp Straka also included after his breakthrough PGA Tour win earlier this year.
Three-time DP World Tour winner Rasmus Højgaard is also named, along with Victor Perez, Adrian Meronk, Thomas Detry and Italy's Guido Migliozzi, who is looking to feature in a home Ryder Cup next September.
"Our team is packed full of exciting players who all have the attributes to excel in a match play contest and I'm excited to lead them into the Hero Cup next year," Molinari said.
The Hero Cup is a new team match play contest aimed at giving European players experience in the format ahead of potential future Ryder Cup appearances.
"Some of our younger players have already shown incredible maturity in high-pressured situations and proved they can perform in big moments, so giving them the opportunity to compete on this stage alongside the likes of Alex Noren and Thomas Pieters will be really important at the beginning of what could be a big year for them."
One vacant spot remains in each team, with Donald set to announce the final two players in the line-up at the end of the DP World Tour calendar year.
"Having worked closely with Tommy and Fran on building the two teams, I'm delighted with the mix of players who will be on show at Abu Dhabi Golf Club in January," Donald said.
Who will feature in the Hero Cup?
Continental Europe: Francesco Molinari (c), Thomas Detry, Rasmus Hojgaard, Adrian Meronk, Guido Migliozzi, Alex Noren, Victor Perez, Thomas Pieters, Sepp Straka, TBC
Great Britain and Ireland: Tommy Fleetwood (c), Ewen Ferguson, Tyrrell Hatton, Shane Lowry, Robert MacIntyre, Seamus Power, Callum Shinkwin, Jordan Smith, Matt Wallace, TBC
"We all thought it was important to combine experience and youthfulness and I think we have found that balance with a mixture of Major Champions and Ryder Cup players, alongside guys who are hoping to secure a spot in Rome next year."
Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Matt Fitzpatrick and Viktor Hovland, the four highest-ranked European players in the world rankings and all likely to play a key role in Europe's next Ryder Cup team, are all missing the contest.
The Hero Cup is the first DP World Tour event of 2023, with coverage live from January 13-15 on Sky Sports Golf!

2022 Statistics Of Social Media Usage in Saudi Arabia: A Research Summary
In today's high-tech world, social media has taken a special meaning. It has facilitated communication between individuals and helped businesses connect with consumers. The method is effective in Saudi Arabia just as it is anywhere else. Social media is so integrated into modern Saudi Arabians' daily life that 82%+ of the population uses it. Accordingly, let's look at the 2022 KSA Social Media Statistics a little closer to see just how far social media has infiltrated in lives of millions of people.
Population Of Saudi Arabia
In January of 2022, the entire population of Saudi Arabia was reported at 35,590,000 people. It has been estimated that between 2021 and 2022, the population of Saudi Arabia grew by 516 thousand (+1.5 percent). Males make up 57.8% of Saudi Arabia's population, while females account for 42.2% of the country's total. The urban population of Saudi Arabia was 84.7% at the beginning of 2022, while the rural population was 15.3% of the total.
Overview of Social Media Users in Saudi Arabia
In Saudi Arabia, there were 34.84 million people using the internet as of January 2022. At the beginning of 2022, 97% of Saudi Arabians had access to the internet.
According to the data we have now, the number of internet users in Saudi Arabia grew by 505,000 (+1.5%) between 2021 and 2022. These numbers show that at the beginning of 2022, 2.1% of the Saudi Arabian population, or 747.4 thousand people, did not have access to the internet.
Researchers are still having trouble collecting reliable data on internet use due to complications stemming from COVID-19. Therefore the actual number of internet users may be higher than previously reported.
Regarding social media users in Saudi Arabia, in January of 2022, 29.30 million Saudi Arabian residents were active on social media.
Social media users in Saudi Arabia made up 82.3% of the entire population at the beginning of 2022. However, it's possible that these numbers don't reflect actual people. There was a 5.4% increase in the number of Saudi Arabians using social media platforms between 2021 and 2022, with 1.5 million more Saudi Arabians using these platforms.
Estimated Internet Speed In Saudi Arabia In 2022
According to available data, Saudi Arabian internet users in early 2022 may have anticipated the following download and upload speeds.
The average speed of a cellular network-based mobile internet connection is 91.06 Mbps.
The median download speed for a home connection is 80.39 Mbps.
In the year leading up to the beginning of 2022, data shows that the median mobile internet connection speed in Saudi Arabia increased by 29.73 Mbps (+48.5%).
Meanwhile, recent numbers reveal that download speeds for Saudi Arabians using fixed internet connections climbed by 17.42 Mbps (+27.7 percent) within the same time frame.
Most Common Social Media Platforms In Saudi Arabia
YouTube Users in Saudi Arabia
According to the most recent data from Google's advertising tools, there were around 30 million Saudi Arabian YouTube viewers at the beginning of 2022.
According to the company, ads on YouTube reached 82.3% of Saudi Arabia's population at the beginning of 2022. During that period, males made up 60.1% of YouTube's Saudi Arabian ad audience, while females made up 39.9%. When put into context, in January 2022, YouTube ads reached 84.1% of all internet users in Saudi Arabia.
TikTok Users in Saudi Arabia
In early 2022, statistics showed that 22.37 million Saudis aged 18 and up used TikTok. TikTok's advertising technologies allow for age-specific targeting of users 13 and up. However, only users 18 and onward were included in the audience data.
TikTok commercials reached 87.9 percent of Saudi Arabian adults aged 18 and up in early 2022. At the same time, 64.2% of Saudi Arabia's entire age range of internet users saw ads on TikTok at the start of the year. There were 39% more women than men in the Saudi Arabian TikTok audience in early 2022.
Snapchat Users in Saudi Arabia
According to Snap's promotional tools, there were 20.20 million Saudi Arabian Snapchat users in the first quarter of 2022. This indicates that 56.8 percent of the Saudi Arabian population was within Snapchat's promotional reach at the beginning of the year.
Considering that Snapchat only allows users who are at least 13 years old to join, it's interesting to see that in 2022, 72.2% of the "eligible" audience in Saudi Arabia is already on the app. In Saudi Arabia, 58% of the total local internet user population (across all ages) was within Snapchat's advertising reach.
In the first quarter of 2022, men made up around 51% of Snapchat's Saudi Arabian audience, while women made up around 49%. Nevertheless, Snapchat's advertising resources only disclose audience gender data for "female" and "male" users.
Instagram Users In Saudi Arabia
The advertising tools on Meta show that there were 15.45 million Saudi Arabian Instagram users as of early 2022.
Using this metric, we may infer that 43.4% of the Saudi Arabian population was within Instagram's advertising reach at the beginning of the year. However, Instagram only allows users who are 13 and above to join, so knowing that 55.2% of the "eligible" population in Saudi Arabia was on Instagram in 2022 is crucial.
It is also important to note that at the beginning of 2022, Saudi Arabian Instagram ads reached approximately 44.3% of the country's total online population. In the first few months of 2022, women made up 41.6% of Instagram's ad audience in Saudi Arabia, while men accounted for 58.4%.
Twitter Users In Saudi Arabia
According to Twitter's advertising materials, the number of Twitter users in Saudi Arabia was 14.10 million as of early 2022.
This means that 39.6 percent of the Saudi Arabian population was within Twitter's advertising reach during this time period.
Twitter users must be 13 or older. Thus it's important to note that just 50.4% of the "eligible" audience in Saudi Arabia was on Twitter in 2022.
Facebook Users In Saudi Arabia
Advertising data provided by Meta in 2022 suggests that there were 11.40 million Facebook users in Saudi Arabia.
The numbers revealed are not directly comparable with those released in previous reports since Meta made significant changes to how its advertising tools report audience reach statistics at the end of 2021.
According to Facebook's updated viewership estimates, the social media giant reached 32.0% of Saudi Arabia's population.
Since Facebook only allows users who are at least 13 years old, it's important to note that only 40.7% of the "eligible" population in Saudi Arabia had access to Facebook in 2022.
In January 2022, Facebook ads in Saudi Arabia reached the equivalent of 32.7% of all internet users in the country, regardless of age. As of the beginning of 2022, just 23.9% of Saudi Arabia's Facebook ad audience was made up of women, while 76.1% was made up of men.
Facebook Messenger Users In Saudi Arabia
According to early 2022 data provided in Meta's advertising tools, 7.70 million Saudi Arabian users viewed ads on Facebook Messenger.
According to Facebook's revised viewership figures, advertising on Facebook Messenger reached 21.6% of Saudi Arabia's population at the beginning of the year. Because Facebook Messenger is only available to users over the age of 13, it is essential to note that in Saudi Arabia, in 2022, ads can reach just 27.5% of the "eligible" population for Facebook Messenger.
It's worth noting that the percentage of Saudi Arabian internet users reached by Facebook ads on Messenger is equal to 22.1%. Among the Saudi Arabian audience for Facebook Messenger ads in the first quarter of 2022, just 24.3% were female, and 75.7% were male.
LinkedIn Users In Saudi Arabia
LinkedIn's marketing materials show that the Saudi Arabian market reached 6.10 million members in the first quarter of 2022.
According to LinkedIn's ad metrics, 17.1 percent of the Saudi population was within LinkedIn's reach at the beginning of 2022. Due to LinkedIn's age restriction, it's useful to know that in 2022, 24.0% of the "eligible" audience in Saudi Arabia is on LinkedIn.
Ads on LinkedIn in Saudi Arabia reached the equivalent of 17.5% of the country's total internet users at the beginning of the year. In the first quarter of 2022, only 22.2% of the Saudi Arabian LinkedIn ad audience was made up of women, while 77.8% was made up of men.
Significance Of Social Media Marketing In Saudi Arabia
More than 34 million individuals in Saudi Arabia use social media platforms, which keeps growing every year, so reaching them is crucial if you want to expand your business.
Marketers can reach out to potential clients on their preferred social media network, be it LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, or even a more recent platform like TikTok. In order to keep their audience's attention, marketers need a solid social media strategy and the capacity to provide exciting content.
The year 2021 solidified several significant shifts in our careers. As a result, we now hold most of our meetings through Zoom and host frequent webinars. The most significant shift, however, was the rise of social media as a primary portal for information gathering, networking, and professional development. This exemplifies why social media advertising is so crucial.
It's safe to say that social media marketing will be a priority in 2022 and beyond. And there is always room for improvement in how businesses use social media marketing.
Digital marketing strategies for today's successful companies and enterprises must include social media. How brands communicate with their audiences and how their audiences engage with them has been fundamentally changed by digital networking.
