Sunderland v Accrington Stanley betting tips
Sunderland will be looking to get back to winning ways and put an end to a run of draws, having picked up two in a row. They take on an Accrington Stanley side who are winless in eight matches in the league.
Sunderland v Accrington Stanley
Friday, 15 February,
Black Cats looking to end a run of draws…
Sunderland find themselves in 4th, and in a EFL League One Play-Off spot, but the side from the North East are ten points away from leaders Luton Town. Despite still carrying healthy promotion prospects, Sunderland will feel like they should be performing better than they have done in recent weeks. Sunderland are currently on a nine game unbeaten run, however, the run consists of only two wins and seven draws, which means they have dropped fourteen points during the run. In the last nine games, Sunderland have scored, at most, a goal per game. This shows that the Black Cats have an issue with killing games off, Sunderland are vulnerable to their opposition scoring equalisers, hence the high volume of draws they have picked up recently. Each of the draws have ended 1-1. Four of their six 1-1 draws have came after being in winning positions, three of those games saw Sunderland take the lead in the first half, with the opposition equaliser coming in the second half.
Despite drawing seven home games, Sunderland have enjoyed playing at the Stadium of Light this season. The Black Cats are unbeaten at home in the league this year after fifteen games played, their last defeat coming in April last year. The key area of Sunderland's game has been their ability to keep out goals. When playing at home, Sunderland concede, on average, less than a goal per game (0.87), however when playing away from home, Sunderland have conceded on average exactly a goal per game (1.00). Looking at the scoring stats this has been essential for Sunderland as they are not particularly high scorers, at home they score on average 1.87 goals and when they play away in the league that average decreases to 1.53 goals.
An issue that won't help their lack of goals, Sunderland's top goalscorer Josh Maja, with fifteen league goals, has joined French side Bordeaux in the January transfer window. To fill the void, Jack Ross brought in Will Grigg from Wigan Athletic. Along with a great chant for the fans, Grigg brings League One experience from playing at this level with Wigan Athletic in the 2015/2016. Will Grigg 'was on fire' that season as he fired twenty-five goals and laid on five assists helping Wigan make a return to the Championship, which built his cult hero status. Grigg is still to get off the mark for Sunderland after two games played and no goals. Maja has left a massive hole to fill for other strikers at the Stadium of Light, as Wyke only has a single goal in the league this year and Grigg is acclimatising to playing in his new team. The next highest scorer for Sunderland in the league has been, the midfielder, Aiden McGeady, with seven goal in the league.
Six games without a win for Accrington…
The away side have been on a dismal form of late in the league. Accrington haven't picked up a win in six matches in the league. The Lancashire club have fared even worse on the road recently only picking up one win in ten away matches, which came against Plymouth in December.
In away matches, Accrington have struggled to get amongst the goals this season. On average, the away side pick up less than a goal per game (0.88). A worse stat is the fact they are conceding, on average, at least a goal conceded per game (1.31). John Coleman's side have shown this hasn't just been an issue on the road, as at home they also concede on average, 1.31 goals per game at the Wham Stadium. The away side have scored the second least amount of goals in the league this season at twenty-seven, with only bottom side AFC Wimbledon scoring less than them in League One.
In terms of match stats, Accrington Stanley games are highly likely to end with Accrington failing to pick up a clean sheet as the have only managed six in twenty-nine league games. As well as this, Accrington's run of games has seen them beaten without reply. Accrington have failed to score in four away matches in a row. Home and away, Stanley have been without a goal in five matches in the league.
The home side need to be wary of bookings…
Sunderland are without any major injury concerns going into this one. The main concerns for Jack Ross will be that Adam Matthews and Tom Flanagan are both on four yellow cards. This means that if either of them pick up a yellow card in Friday's match, they will be suspended for the game against Gillingham.
Likewise, Accrington's squad are fresh going into Friday's fixture with Sunderland with no injuries or suspensions.
Home win likely in this…
I do not envisage Accrington picking up a win here, going by their recent away form and the fact Sunderland have not lost at home this season so far. The bookies seem to agree as they have made Sunderland 8/11 favourites to get the win, Accrington have been given 7/2 odds to pick up a shock win against Sunderland.
It would be worth looking at the win to nil market for this match. Accrington have failed to score in their last five matches, whilst Sunderland's last four wins have ended with a win to nil victory. For Sunderland to win to nil, bookies give you odds of 2/1. Be wary of taking any bets that rely on multiple goals to be scored. Sunderland have not been particularly high scorers of goals recently and Accrington, as previously stated, have found it hard to get on the scoresheet recently. If you want to risk it, you can get odds of 11/4 for Sunderland to pick up a win and both teams to score. Also Sunderland to win and over 2.5 goals to be scored is priced at 13/8. A more worthwhile bet would be Sunderland to win and Under 2.5 Goals which has odds of 3/1, with it being highly unlikely that there would be a high scoreline.
Although Grigg is yet to open a scoring account for Sunderland, this would be perfect opportunity to do just that with his side coming up against a team in poor defensive form like Accrington. For Grigg to score anytime gets a price of 13/10.
Another market to be mindful of is the card market. Both sides are close to the bottom of the League One Fair Play table. Sunderland have picked up fifty-three yellow cards and six red cards in the league this season, whereas Accrington have picked up fifty-five yellow cards and three red cards in the league this season. In the last five games Accrington have averaged thirty-eight booking points and Sunderland have averaged seventeen. You can get odds of 7/4 for their to be between 35 to 55 booking points in the game.
Recommended Bets:
Sunderland to win Under 2.5 Goals (3/1)
Sunderland to win to nil (2/1)
35 to 55 booking points (7/4)

Recruitment for care center staff is underway. Employment opportunities can be found at acehardware.com.
Ace Hardware Corp. said today it soon will open a customer care center at 4700 Terminal Drive, at Fort Myers' Page Field general aviation airport.
The center will employ 110 people in new jobs when fully staffed, Ace said.
Its lease with Lee County Port Authority fills a longtime vacancy at the former passenger terminal that served major airlines before Southwest Florida International opened in 1983.
"We are confident their new office location on airport land, minutes away from downtown Fort Myers and the growing U.S. 41 corridor, will be great match for their team," said Jeff Mulder, port authority executive director.
CareerSource Southwest Florida will assist with the recruitment and pre-screening of applicants over the next several months, said Joseph Paterno, executive director, Southwest Florida Workforce Development Board.
This will include hiring events, Paterno said. Prospective applicants are encouraged to register at employflorida.com.
The new care center is part of a strategic, three-year plan to grow and transform the co-op's Customer Care division.
The staff will help bridge information gaps for customers of Ace Hardware retail stores and acehardware.com e-commerce customers via phone, email and social media.
People hired for the Fort Myers office will have access to benefits including competitive wages, paid vacation, retirement savings, health and life insurance, and birth/adoption paid time off for new parents.
A spokeswoman for Ace said the company doesn't publish wages, but added that hourly starting wages for the Fort Myers facility will be significantly above Florida minimum wage.
Statistics from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics list a $22,825-to-$36,263 annual pay range for customer service workers in Lee County.
If they work a 40-hour week, that translates to $10.97 to $17.43 an hour. Florida's minimum wage is $8.10 an hour.
Company leaders chose Fort Myers after a search that covered more than 900 metropolitan areas.
Ace Hardware has been known as the place with the "helpful hardware folks" for more than 90 years.
In 2017, J.D. Power ranked Ace highest in customer satisfaction among home improvement retail stores for the 11th consecutive year.
The company is the biggest retailer-owned hardware cooperative in the the world, with more than 5,000 hardware stores locally owned and operated.
Headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois, Ace and its subsidiaries operate an extensive network of distribution centers in the United States, and also have distribution capabilities in Ningbo, China; Colon, Panama; and Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Its retailers' stores are located in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and approximately 55 countries.
For more information on Ace, visit acehardware.com.
When Southwest Florida International opened for business in 1983, the commercial airline passenger terminal on the northeast portion of Page Field in Fort Myers was left vacant.
It stayed that way until roughly 15 years later, when Lee County Port Authority began transforming the structure for office suites to rent out.
Today, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the state Bureau of Insurance Fraud and the state Fire Marshal Division are longtime tenants of the building at 4700 Terminal Drive, just off North Airport Road.
And, when Ace Hardware Corp. opens its Customer Care Center in Suite 6, the former building will be leased-up, said Victoria Moreland, port authority spokeswoman.
The lease with Ace Hardware Corp. is for seven and a half years, with two options for five-year extensions.
Ace initially will pay $4,892.20 in monthly rent, starting Jan. 1 or as soon as an occupancy certificate is issued.
Twenty-four months later, the rent will increase to $9,204.39.

Dennis Goldford has been at Drake since 1985. He received his B.A. in political science and philosophy from the University of Michigan, an M. Litt. (Master of Letters) in philosophy from Oxford University, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in political science from the University of Chicago. Prof. Goldford teaches in the areas of political theory and constitutional law.
Prof. Goldford has written The American Constitution and the Debate Over Originalism, published by Cambridge University Press in April 2005. Located at the intersection of law, political science, philosophy, and literary theory, this book is a work of constitutional theory that explores the nature of American constitutionalism and constitutional interpretation through a reconsideration of the longstanding debate between originalism and nonoriginalism. The American Constitution and the Debate Over Originalism traces that debate to a particular set of premises about the nature of language, interpretation, and objectivity, premises that raise the specter of unconstrained, unstructured constitutional interpretation that has haunted contemporary constitutional theory. The book presents a novel account of what it means to say that Americans are a people who constitute themselves as a people in and through the terms of a fundamental text.
Prof. Goldford has also written, with co-author Hugh Winebrenner, The Iowa Precinct Caucuses: the Making of a Media Event, 3rd ed., published by the University of Iowa Press in December 2010. This book chronicles how the caucuses began, how they changed, and starting in 1972 how they became fodder for and manipulated by the mass media. We argue that the media have given a value to the Iowa caucuses completely out of proportion to the reality of their purpose and procedural methods. In fact, the nationally reported "results" are contrived by the Iowa parties to portray a distorted picture of the process that nevertheless has come to take on a reality of its own. This third edition has been updated to include the election of 2000, which saw the first winner of the Iowa caucuses to reach the White House since 1976; the election of 2004 and the roller-coaster fortunes of Howard Dean and John Kerry; and the election of 2008 and the unlikely emergence of Barack Obama as a presidential contender.
Currently, Prof. Goldford's most recent book, The Constitution of Religious Freedom: God, Politics, and the First Amendment, was published by Baylor University Press in March 2012. This book asks the question, does a political order have the capacity to be neutral regarding religious belief, or does it always and necessarily constitute the establishment of a set of religious beliefs? If the latter is true, then what are the consequences for the American concept of religious freedom? In particular, the book addresses the question of whether the American political order constitutes a religious community with a religious identity and mission of its own, or is simply a political order that allows for diverse religious communities to exist within it without constituting a religious community itself.
Finally, Prof. Goldford is presently engaged in exploring, with particular attention to Tea Party movement constitutionalism, the questions of whether there is a principled, constitutionally coherent theory of the structure of the American union, and whether the current conflict over federalism and federal power can be fruitfully understand as a reassertion of the competing visions of the structure of the union held by Federalists and Antifederalists.
Prof. Goldford regularly participates on scholarly panels at the annual meetings of the American Political Science Association, the Midwest Political Science Association, and the Iowa Association of Political Scientists. He has served as a manuscript reviewer for various journal and book publishers in political science, and he provides political and election analysis for a wide range of local, regional, national, and international print and broadcast news media.

Poverty, lack of employment, and poor educational opportunities make rural Honduran youth susceptible to gang recruitment. Gangs are pervasive in Honduras and very disruptive to the social fabric of the society. One group that is trying to change that is Grupo Juvenil Dion.
Since 2011, with Kenoli support, Dion has trained 440 rural youth through rural mobile workshops in: hairdressing, baking, garment making, and electricity. Not only do the young people obtain technical skills that can lead them to employment, they receive training in social values, life skills and how to start their own micro-enterprise. Many of the 440 youth have become self-employed or obtained jobs.
Currently, Grupo Juvenil Dion is working with Kenoli partner, Vecinos Honduras, to provide vocational training in cell phone and motorcycle repairs. In a country with small incomes and reliance on cell phones for communications, repairs are constant and expensive for many families. This is also true of motorcycles, that are a main source of transportation for many. The training is providing much-needed skills for the youth and later sources of income.
2014 - Tatiana Cortez of Kenoli buying bread from Gualquiria Cáceres who established her own bakery with training and support from Dion.

I have a lot of memories of this place. I must have seen lots of postcards that I don't have now. It's all very familiar. The postcard sort of says it's "restored," but maybe it was just made to look old.
Today it's in rough shape. It's been abandoned for a while and is on a prime piece of real estate that will likely mean it will be gone any day now.
This sign is very familiar in my mind. At the bottom right is a rotting piece of farm equipment.
Peeking through the windows revealed an eerie site. The tables were set and everything was just like they were opening tomorrow and tomorrow got cancelled.
UPDATE 2012: All the property has been bulldozed and is gone. The sign remains for now.

Q: Add Dynamics CRM HTML Webresource in Power portal I've created an HTML webresource in Dynamics CRM. Now I need to show it in Power Portals. I tried following below links but none of them helped me out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XaKZUGmhEo&t=8s
https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/microsoft-dynamics-crm-forum/283638/add-html-webresource-in-portal
Please help me to add HTML web resource in Power Portal.

A: I'm not aware of a way to use a dynamics web resource within a portal (although you probably can). If you want to add your custom HTML to a portal I would use web templates instead.

*

*Create a web template with the html inside

*Create a page template with type = web template and select the web template that you created

*Create a web page and select the page template that you just created as the page template.

Aan de Groningerstraatweg staat de Nieuwe Watertoren, heden ten dage ook bekend als woontoren Aquastate.

De toren is in 1925 gebouwd door de Bredasche Beton Maatschappij en heeft een hoogte van 36 meter. De inhoud van het reservoir is 1000 m³. Deze toren is later buiten gebruik genomen en in 1999 voor 1 gulden aangekocht door de Leeuwarder Theo Douma. Die verkocht de watertoren vervolgens aan onder meer projectontwikkelaar Jan van Kammen. Van Kammen heeft met zijn zakenpartners de plannen verwezenlijkt tot de bouw van 9 appartementen met de naam Aquastate   in 2002. Een eerste schetsontwerp van de watertoren is door de Leeuwarder architect Richard Wolthekker gemaakt. De toren staat op plaats veertien van de lijst van hoogste gebouwen van Leeuwarden

Saplunara is a bay and small place located on the southeastern tip of Mljet that is famous for its sandy beach Saplunara (meaning tiny sand in Latin). There are two sandy beaches in Saplunara: Large Saplunara and Small Saplunara.
Large Saplunara is located in the very centre of the bay and village. Due to its location the beach gets much more crowded than Small Saplunara, which is located a bit further along the bay.
Beach restaurant and cafe is opened May to October.
This is another sandy beach on Mljet, located about half and hour walk from Saplunara. It is almost 1/2 mile long beach, secluded among sharp stones of Mljet southern shores. This hidden bay and beach is surrounded by pine trees and faces South and looks like a lagoon. The entrance from the sea to Blace beach is very narrow (only 8m wide) so the seawater inside the lagoon gets very very warm and is possible to swim here even at the times when sea water outside is still cold and not suitable for swimming.
Due to its isolated location, Blace Beach and Bay is popular among naturist and nudists too.
The area of Large Lake ( Veliko Jezero) on Mljet is popular for swimming and sunbathing among visitors on day trips and excursions to National Park Mljet that comes at Mljet daily from Korcula or Dubrovnik.
If you come here on the day trip, you will visit small island Melita and it's 12th century monastery and at lunch brake you will have opportunity to go for quick swim here at Large Lake.


Joseph Giacobbo came up big, stopping 27 of 30 shots throughout the game. The Hawkesbury Hawks took the lead before the halfway point in the third on a goal from Nicolas Elia.
Alec Taillon had no trouble finding the scoresheet, adding 3 points (1 goal, 2 assists).
In the first period, Callahan opened the scoring for Hawkesbury with a goal at 14:38 with a helper from his linemate Taillon.
In the second, Scrivens answered for Rockland with a goal at 3:14 with an assist from his teammate Shields 'c'.
In the third, Elia answered for the Hawks with what turned out to be the game winning goal at 10:41 with helpers from Gasuik and Taillon. Taillon netted a goal at 14:35 with an assist from Lavallee.
This loss brings the Rockland Nationals' record to (4-5-1-0).


I have worked through the tutorial.
But I still have no idea how to start one project from the scratch.
orx-dev-vs2015-64-1.8.zip How can I deal with this package? Is there any documentaion I could read?
There is something new to orx that may help you get started a little quicker and it might be helpful to us if you would like to try it out.
If you use the git version of orx, there are scripts there to help you auto-generate a project.
That will help you be up and going in a few minutes. I can certainly help you through this.
Are you familiar with using git?
If not, I can help you through the beginner's tutorial to get you started.
Yes, I used that beginner's tutorial.
I am very glad to learn how to use git and the auto-generater you have mentioned.
Please help me with it!
Depends if you want to go down that path.
Alternatively, we can continue to try with what you have now, and you can let me know where exactly you got stuck with the tutorial.
can you type out the url for this video?
Sorry about that, the forum is being weird. I edited the post. You should be able to copy the link now.
@ReedsEye, also don't forget, if getting started with git all a bit much right now, and you just want a project to get started playing with Orx, you can change the tutorial project as outlined in the beginners tutorial.
If you get stuck on any step, let me know what the error or problem is and I should be able to sort you out.
Hi Reedsye and welcome here!
When I do the beginner's tutorial in another computer, during doing "Part 3 - Setting up a new game project" VS 2015 shows this error.
I googled it and found no useful suggestion, What could I do to solve it?
It looks like the forum mangled the error message. However it looks like it's the copy step for the .dll, which means that it's likely that the engine library hasn't been compiled (orx.dll).
Did you compile the release config version of orx beforehand? Sorry, I don't know the details of the steps of the tutorials, sausage will probably be able to help you more with that.
Your orx code folder needs to be at the relative path listed above.
A quick alternative to get it working is to copy all the *.lib files into the /lib folder of your project, and the orx*.dll files into the /bin folder of your project.
Then make sure you copy the include folder from orx, to your project.
That's a quick cheap way to get it working.
Then later, you can go back and make sure your project paths are correct so that you can get it working properly.
I tried the Tutorial.sln and changed nothing. When building the project, the same problem still occurred.
The file I used is orx-tutorial-vs2015-32-1.8.zip in the tutorial. The .dll and .lib files are in proper folders.
Ah yes, this was fixed post-1.8 released. You can simply remove the copy step.
Another approach is to simply clone the git (or hg if you prefer) repository. You'll have all the latest features, include the 'orx init' one to start a new project, and everything is where it should be. You simply need to run setup.bat once after cloning the repository.
Alternatively, you can also simply ignore the error itself, it should run just as well.
There has been a bit of work behind the scenes to make the git version of orx (and git itself) easy to download and use.
Also, easier to set up your own project.

Big Crowds Come Out at Boston Home and Garden Show
By Boyce ThompsonFebruary 27, 2019Appearances, Latest News
It's a good thing that most of the exhibits in the Life-Changing Products show are set up to be self-service. There were so many people packing the aisles at this year's Home Show Boston that there was no way for curators to demonstrate them all.
Instead, visitors could open and close a refrigerator door, generating new photos of what's inside on a tablet. They could turn on music and watch Nanoleaf lights start to dance. They could open a trash can with a simple verbal command. And the fun didn't end there.
The Boston show is held at the Seaport World Trade Center in what's known as South Boston. Many people came out to the show from new condominiums that have sprung up around the convention center. The weather cooperated: it was a balmy 40 degrees in February!

Colin O'Brady says a flaming rope that burned a quarter of his body is the reason he just crossed Antarctica alone and unaided
Hilary BrueckJan 18, 2019, 00:04 IST
When explorer Colin O'Brady was 22 years old, a fire severely burned his legs and feet.
Doctors said he might never walk normally again, but 18 months later, O'Brady won the amateur division of the Chicago Triathlon.
At 33, O'Brady just became the first person to successfully cross Antarctica alone without help from a resupply or a kite.
O'Brady talks about his traumatic burn as a major turning point, and he says it led him to "really understand the power of the mind."
Colin O'Brady knew it in his bones: he was an athlete, a guy who loved to move.
In high school in Portland, Oregon, O'Brady exercised his athletic abilities in the swimming pool and on the soccer field. He was an MVP, lettered seven times, and took his soccer team to the state championship. He was recruited to swim at Yale, and went on to spend a semester in college climbing mountains "among other outdoor activities," as his college athlete bio reads.
At the time, he never imagined that one day, this physical strength would be ripped from him, his muscle power burned away.
"I kind of took for granted being athletic," O'Brady told Business Insider, "whether that was competing in sports, or just being able to move my body."
But when he was 22, a traumatic accident during a trip to Thailand forced O'Brady's body to stop. It happened one night on a darkened beach of Ko Tao, in the light of one of the flaming jump ropes known to dot "full moon" parties on Thai islands.
"Fire dancing is fairly common on the beaches there," O'Brady recounted.
Never one to pass up an athletic challenge, he decided to jump into the flames. How hard could the jump rope trick be for such a fit, athletic guy?
O'Brady approached the rope, wearing shorts and no shoes, his lower legs and feet bare and exposed.
In an instant, his body caught fire.
"I jumped this rope, and it unfortunately wrapped around my legs, the bottom of my body, lit me on fire," O'Brady said.
In flames, he quickly ran through the dark sand toward the ocean.
"But not before about 25% of my body was severely burned," he said.
Had O'Brady spent longer outside the water, the burns could have been much worse. Fortunately, within about 10 seconds, his body was in the waves.
"I was actually on fire to my neck, but I was wearing a t-shirt and shorts," he said.
The clothes quickly melted and burned, but they helped save the upper portions of his body from the fire. Meanwhile, the crippling flames dug in to his bare legs and his feet.
O'Brady's doctors suggested he'd never be the same
"The doctors told me, 'look, you'll probably never walk again normally,'" O'Brady said.
That news shook the young man to his core.
"In that moment my entire identity shifted," O'Brady said. "Who am I if I can't move my body, if I can't train?"
His mother quickly flew to Thailand and stayed there with O'Brady for months as he recovered. She encouraged him to think and feel out his recovery for himself.
"Don't listen to those doctors - what do you want to do when you get out of here?" O'Brady remembers his mom saying.
Apparently, they were the right words, because O'Brady knew what he wanted to do.
"I want to race a triathlon," he remembers saying. "I want to be active."
O'Brady started setting incremental goals for his recovery with a triathlon in mind. Eventually, he got up and started walking, then running, biking, and swimming.
Eighteen months after the fire, in 2009, the 24-year-old competed in the Olympic-length Chicago Triathlon and won the amateur race. He crossed the finish line in 2 hours, 1 minute, and 58 seconds after swimming, biking, and running over 31 miles across the windy city.
His victory was a shock.
"Surprising the heck out of myself," as O'Brady put it.
O'Brady knows he isn't alone in his ability to move forward in the face of adversity. Child-development experts have discovered that human resilience isn't something innate or special to certain individuals, either - the skill can build over time as kids and young adults develop coping skills.
"What happens early may matter most, but it is never too late to build resilience," researchers at Harvard's Center on the Developing Child wrote in a 2015 brief.
Other research on the science of resilience has found that stable, supportive relationships that provide love and reassurance (like a mom at your bedside) can help people bounce back.
After the Chicago Triathlon, O'Brady went on to become the world record holder for the fastest trek up the world's Seven Summits - the highest peaks on all the continents. (That was in 2016, but he's since been dethroned by other hikers.) Last year, O'Brady once again shattered a record for fastest climbs, this time summiting the highest peaks in all 50 states in the US in a mind-bending 21 days, 9 hours, and 54 minutes.
"Here we are, 11 years later, these expeditions," O'Brady said, recalling the fateful Thai fire. "That was a huge turning point in my life, not only my athletic career, but also to really understand the power of the mind, and the power of what I believe we all have inside of us."
Finally last year, on December 26, 2018, after a grueling 32-and-a-half-hour "ultramarathon," he became the first person to cross Antarctica solo and unassisted.
"It was a really deep mental journey" O'Brady said. "That allowed me to confront some deep challenging fears and anxiety" and tap into "really amazing inner strength."
He believes everyone has this strength if they can tap into the power of a clear, focused, and determined mind.
"We really can achieve so much more on the other side of setbacks," O'Brady said.

Media Town has actually recently started to attract purchasers from all states of life. Despite the fact that it was launched more than 10 years back by the then Federal government of Punjab, the society still stands apart amongst its counterparts in the neighborhood. For all the ideal factors, the society is acquiring appeal amongst the end users, and here are the details that might intrigue you.
Media Town founded on PWD Roadway, in fact it is a road avenue that originates from the signal-free Islamabad Expressway and leads all the way to Bahria Town Phase II Main Boulevard. Moreover, Media Town shares its neighborhood with many important towns and societies, mainly the Bahria Town Phase I, II, III, IV, and V.
In terms of the features and facilities that serve a lot of people living in the housing societies on this road, locals of Media Town have complete access to these facilities.
PWD Road, frequently known as PWD Double Roadway, is the home of some of the town's best health and education centers, in addition to industrial and shopping locations, consisting of dining establishments and dining spots.
The society features domestic plots in size of 10 and 5 marlas, but the per marla size here is bigger than the routine marla of numerous other societies of Islamabad. In other words, the 10-marla and 5-marla plot here is really 12 marlas and 6 marlas in standard sizing.
In addition to that, dimensions of these plots are likewise quite sensible, where the plots have a wider front, making them best for accommodating decent layout. The society is known finest for its security plans, where gated, walled and protected premises enable an entirely protected lifestyle. The society's town plan features broad and roomy roadways.
Due to its comprehensive security arrangement and that the society was established for the reporters, Media Town is home to some prominent names from Pakistan's news media. On top of that, the society faces no load shedding and water lack issues.
The region has actually been attracting attention due to it being a limited advancement for years. With alternatives provided for basic buyers, more buyers might take pleasure in the prime, posh and protected lifestyle the society offered. The truth stays that the perfect plot dimensions here are a bigger reason that many buyers are seen thinking about the job.
In addition to that, there are often few alternatives offered for sale.
The demand for plots here has actually been on the rise for a while, however, due to a 100% increase in residential or commercial property transfer fee by the society management, some purchasers feel prevented. Here is the current market value of property plots in Media Town.
As you have read the article on Media Town, we hope that you must have some thoughts and suggestions of your own, if yes, do not hesitate, the comments section below has specially been designed for you. Do not forget to visit our blog at Rightdeed.com for more such informative articles.

Гірнича промисловість Гани.

Загальна характеристика

Осн. її підгалузі – видобуток золота, алмазів і бокситів, марганцевої руди.
Золотодобувна галузь. Протягом більшої частини ХХ ст. золото було другим в експорті (після какао-бобів). На початку 1990-х років в золотодобувну промисловість були направлені значні інвестиції, експорт золота вийшов на 1-е місце. У 1996 виробництво золота в Ґані перевищило 1,6 млн тройських унцій (36% загальних вартості експорту). Більшу частину ґанського золота дають багаті родовища в районі Обоасі, які розробляє компанія «Ашанті голдфілдс корпорейшн», що знаходиться в спільній власності уряду Ґани і британської багатонаціональної гірничодобувної корпорації «Лонро».

Окремі галузі

Золотодобувна галузь

На початку XXI ст. за видобутком золота Ґ. займає 2-е місце в Африці. Основні продуценти золота (див. табл. 2): Ashanti Goldfields Co. (AGC) – 528 451 унцій (2001), Resolute Amansie Ltd – 108 828 унцій (2001), Abosso Goldfields Ltd – 302 563 унцій (2001), Gold Fields Ltd – 504 278 унцій (2001), Bonte Gold Mines Ltd – 65 293 унцій (2001), Bogoso Gold Ltd (BGL), Obenemase Gold Mines Ltd., Prestea Gold Resources (PGR) та інші [Mining Annual Review 2002].

Компанія Ґани Ashanti Goldfields експлуатує в Ґані 4 золотодобувних підприємства і по одному в Ґвінеї, Танзанії і Зімбабве. Видобуток компанією Au за 2001 р. становив 51,01 т у порівнянні з 49,14 т у 2000 р.
На провідному підприємстві Tarkwa в Ґані після придбання компанією ПАР Gold Fields суміжних підприємств Damang і Teberebie запаси руди збільшилися до 248,8 т, а ресурси до 622,1 т. У 2002 р. на об'єднаному підприємстві збільшено видобуток Au до 28,0 т/рік [World Gold (Gr. Brit.). - 2002. - 5, № 3. - Р. 5].

В межах золоторудного поясу Бібіані нині (2002 р.) розробляється однойменне родовище і намічається до експлуатації нове золоторудне родовище Чірано.

У 2002 р почав роботу кар'єр на Au-родовищі Богосо (Bogoso), компанія Bogoso Gold Ltd., який буде розробляти окиснені руди родовища. Зруденіння приурочене до потужної регіональної системи крутоспадних зон розсланцювання – т.зв. зони Ашанті. Родов. є одним з численних рудоносних ділянок, локалізованих в рудному полі Престеа. Загальні запаси руди (С1+С2) на кінець 2001 р - 28.5 млн т із вмістом Au 3.14 г/т або загальних запасів золота 89.5 т. В т.ч. окиснені руди - 16.5 млн т руди (46 т золота). Ресурси категорії inferred (P1) становлять 6.7 млн т руди і близько 19 т золота. Окиснені руди будуть розроблятися кар'єром Plant North до 2006 р. з продуктивністю 4-5 млн т руди на рік і отриманням 10-13 т золота. Кінцевими проектними відмітками кар'єру є: довжина  - 1 км, ширина - 250 м і глибина - 120 м. Первинні руди  будуть розроблятися шахтним способом до 2012-2013 рр. з продуктивністю до 6-7.5 т золота на рік. Після відробляння родовища Богосо в експлуатацію будуть залучені суміжні рудоносні ділянки [African Mining. 2002. V.7, № 4].
Планується розробка Au-родов. Чірано (Chirano), підтверджені запаси якого у 2002 р становлять 12.8 млн т руди із вмістом Au 2.25 г/т, або 28.8 т золота. Запасів досить для відробляння їх кар'єром протягом 6.5 років з отриманням на рік близько 4.4 т золота. Вилучення золота з окиснених руд досягає 95%, а з первинних - 91%, при цьому 35-40% золота планують добувати гравітаційними методами [Mining Journal. 2003. V.340].

Таблиця 2. – Динаміка видобутку золота компаніями Ґани, кг.

Алмазодобувна галузь

Видобуток алмазів в Ґані в 2002 р. склав 993 тис. кар. (870 тис. в 2001 р.), в грошовому вираженні 20.7 млн дол. (18.5 млн в 2001 р). Динаміка видобутку алмазів на межі ХХ-XXI ст. стабільно позитивна. Алмази експортують г.ч. в Бельгію та Ізраїль. Ґана планує постачати сировину для індійської гранильної промисловості [Rapaport TradeWire]. За іншими даними видобуток алмазів у Ґані в 2001 р склав 1 169 632,66 карат, що на 33.21% більше, ніж у 2000 р [Mining Annual Review 2002].

На міжнародному алмазному ринку Ґана віднесена до категорії «сенситивних» щодо експорту алмазів, тобто країн до яких потрібна підвищена увага (що, зокрема, пояснює великі розбіжності у даних щодо власного алмазного видобутку Ґани). Країнам-імпортерам рекомендовано ретельно перевіряти експортні документи на алмази з цих країн і у разі виникнення сумнівів в походженні алмазів затримувати їх для перевірки.

Інші корисні копалини

Крім золота і алмазів, в Ґані в незначних обсягах добувають боксити і марганець. Основні добувні запаси бокситів і марганцю зосереджені в Західній області. Місцеве значення має розробка вапняку, що використовується для виробництва цементу. На півночі і заході країни розвідані невеликі поклади залізняку, які через низьку якість не розробляються. Ґана відчуває дефіцит родовищ основних металів і викопного палива.

This Is Anfield • Liverpool FC Opinion •
Lovren, Skrtel, Sakho – Debating Liverpool's best centre-back pairing
Ben Twelves
@bm12s
With the increased competition at the heart of The Reds' defence following Dejan Lovren's arrival, Ben Twelves discusses who should be the central defensive partnership this season.
Having conceded an alarming amount of league goals last season (50) Brendan Rodgers was always going to look to strengthen his defensive options this summer window. A new right and centre back have joined the exciting squad being assembled at Anfield and the situation over a left back upgrade, and the pursuit of Alberto Moreno, seems to be nearing a positive conclusion as Rodgers looks to bolster his defensive options.
With options comes decisions, and at the moment, there's little debate over who should occupy the full-back slots, with large sections of the fan base already in favour of new signing Javier Manquillo replacing Glen Johnson at right-back, and Alberto Moreno – should he arrive – making the left-back slot his own. But it's at centre-back again, like last summer, where the real questions are being asked over who should be the first choice pairing.
Dunno if it got picked up on TV but Lovren was shouting his head of all game today. Seems he's the defensive marshall we've needed.
— Kop 305 (@Kop305) August 10, 2014
The arrival of the impressive Dejan Lovren – the leader Liverpool's back line have so badly lacked since Jamie Carragher retired – has seen central defenders in the squad increase to six players.
Departures are expected – namely Kolo Toure and Daniel Agger – it will leave Liverpool with a far more healthy four options in the centre of defence; Mamadou Sakho, Dejan Lovren, Martin Skrtel and Sebastian Coates.
So who should be the partnership to lead Liverpool in 2014/15?
It doesn't take a genius to work out that with Rodgers paying £20 million for Lovren, he will be the pick of the centre backs this season. His obvious leadership alongside his composure, and assured manner make it easy to see why the Liverpool manager was so desperate to bring the Croatian to Anfield and it's safe to assume that 25-year-old will take the lead role.
What is up for grabs then, is the shirt alongside the new signing.
Lovren Left or Right?
Lovren is accustomed to playing as the left sided centre half naturally as displayed against Borussia Dortmund on Sunday when Skrtel partnered him as the right sided centre back. The pair defended well with the commanding Croatian producing an excellent debut performance but there were obvious differences in the way both players defend.
Lovren was vocal in instructing the back line, forcing them up away from danger and holding his position on occasions as Dortmund attacked the Reds' defence, but Skrtel on the other hand at times continued to drop deeper – a trait that contributed to the team conceding so many goals last season.
Lovren also stepped up and out to meet the ball, and confronted Dortmund in their attacks, while Skrtel again at times backed off inviting pressure. While not necessarily a criticism of the long serving Slovakian – more an observation in the differing defending techniques – it's not the way Rodgers is trying to instil; it's what he's trying to move his defenders away from.
Sakho watched from the bench with Toure and Coates at the weekend, and a potential problem for the Frenchman is that like Lovren, he too is naturally left sided. The ex-Southampton man's distribution and comfort in possession is excellent with both feet, and perhaps with a bit of fine tuning from Rodgers' he could slide across and play as the right sided centre back to accommodate the left footed Sakho.
It's hard to believe that Rodgers would spend big on two naturally left sided central defenders, completely ignoring the right, so coaching the Croatian international to adapt could well be on the managers' agenda. It would make sense seeing as with a long season ahead, injuries to come and the amount of games to play, all three will be required to play next to each other at some point.
With this in mind, it's fair to say that Lovren, Sakho and Skrtel are therefore the three main centre back's for Rodgers, with Coates and possibly Toure in reserve for when called upon which isn't a bad set of central defensive options as the manager continues to transform his squad.
BR: I thought Dejan Lovren was brilliant today, he's a real professional. Both he and Martin Skrtel were excellent today, as was Manquillo. — This Is Anfield (@thisisanfield) August 10, 2014
After a solid performance, Lovren and Skrtel seem to be the logical choice for Sunday once again. Replacing the Slovakian with Sakho would not necessarily be a risk – as both have been signed due to their suitability with the style Rodgers wants – but they haven't yet played together in a competitive game.
With a new right back in the defence already and the possibility of Johnson, Enrique or yet another new recruit at left back, wholesale changes could be a dangerous game. It was slightly surprising that Sakho didn't come on to play alongside the new recruit on Sunday for some part of the match but it could be viewed as the clearest indication yet that it will be Skrtel and Lovren as the defensive partnership on Sunday afternoon.
I'd go with Lovren Sakho myself, for the record.
— Kop 305 (@Kop305) August 8, 2014
However, while it makes sense for Skrtel and Lovren to remain as the starting pair for Sunday's first league fixture due to the small experience gained last time out, Sakho alongside the French speaking former Lyon man, is the strongest partnership available at Anfield and will hopefully be phased in by Rodgers sooner rather than later.
As the best two central defenders in the squad, both with seasons ahead, they could not only form a long-term partnership for years, but a top-class one at that.

It's a slider and the first 3 slides should be random displayed on every pageload ...
Could someone help?
 public function shuffle( $data ) {

    // Return early there are no items to shuffle.
    if ( ! is_array( $data['slider'] ) ) {

    // Return early there are no items to shuffle.
    if (!is_array($data['slider'])) {
        return $data;
    }

    $sliced_array = array_slice($data["slider"], 0, 3, TRUE);
    // Shuffle the keys and loop through them to create a new, randomized array of images.
    shuffle($sliced_array);

    $data['slider'] = $sliced_array + array_slice($data["slider"], 0);

    return $data;
}

A: <?php
$data = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];

//get 3 first elements and remove 3 first elements from main array
$remains = array_splice($data,3);

//shuffle 3 elements
shuffle($data);

//join everything back
$data = array_merge(array_values($data), array_values($remains));

A: Yes, its possible. You were on right track. With a few tweaks it worked well.
Code:
public function shuffling($data) {

    // Return early there are no items to shuffle.
    if (!is_array($data['slider'])) {
        return $data;
    }

    $sliced_array = array_slice($data["slider"], 0, 3, TRUE);
    // Shuffle the keys and loop through them to create a new, randomized array of images.
    shuffle($sliced_array);

    foreach ($sliced_array as $key => $value) {
        $data['slider'][$key] = $value;
    }
    return $data;
}

I've tried with sample array like:
shuffling(["slider" => [
        0 => "A",
        1 => "B",
        2 => "C",
        3 => "D",
        4 => "E",
]]);

And result is:
Array
(
    [slider] => Array
        (
            [0] => B
            [1] => C
            [2] => A
            [3] => D
            [4] => E
        )

)

Note: shuffle is already function defined in php. That's why I've changed name to shuffling.

A: Here's a demo: https://3v4l.org/rYfV2
public function shuffler($data) {

    // Return early there are no items to shuffle.
    if (!is_array($data['slider'])) {
        return $data;
    }

    // Generate a copy of first three elements.
    $first = array_slice($data['slider'], 0, 3);

    // Shuffle first three elements.
    shuffle($first);

    // Overwrite original first three elements.
    $data['slider'] = array_replace($data['slider'], $first);
    // $data['slider'] = $first + $data['slider'];  // function-less alternative

    // Return the randomized image array.
    return $data;

}

array_replace() avoids doing the replacement process in a more verbose / iterated fashion. It also avoids handling the full array, when you only wish to handle the first three elements.  At no point is it necessary to call array_values().
You can also use the union operator instead of array_replace() -- see my commented line of code under the array_replace() line.  (Demo)
From PHP Documentation Array Operator:

The + operator returns the right-hand array appended to the left-hand
  array; for keys that exist in both arrays, the elements from the
  left-hand array will be used, and the matching elements from the
  right-hand array will be ignored.
