Boris Shikhmuradov was killed during Niyazov's presidency
According to data obtained by us from various sources over several years, the former Foreign Affairs Minister of Turkmenistan Boris Shikhmuradov, along with several individuals convicted in connection with the alleged assassination attempt on Niyazov, were shot in prison BL-T/5.
On 25 June 2008, in the city of Turkmenbashi, prison BL-T/5 was demolished in the presence of representatives of diplomatic missions, international organizations and mass media. The Turkmen authorities stated that the crime rate had dropped significantly in the country and there was no longer a need for the aforementioned prison.
Until then this was the only penitentiary facility located on the territory of Turkmenistan where death penalties were carried out during Soviet times. The basement of this facility was specially equipped for these purposes and included death row cells.
Pursuant to the data we have obtained, this is where Boris Shikhmuradov, Yklym Yklymov and a dozen more people, convicted in connection with the alleged assassination attempt on the President of Turkmenistan in 2002, had been transported. This group of convicted persons never left the facility.
Testimony by Farid Tukhbatullin:
After the events of 25 November 2002 the special services and the police initiated repressions, not only against those who were suspected of being involved in the assassination attempt on Niyazov, but also against selected activists disloyal to the authorities. I was arrested and placed in the pre-detention facility of the National Security Ministry on 21 December 2002. Dovlet Gaiypov was already being held in the cell where I was brought. Two or three days later another iron bed was installed and Yklym Yklymov was accommodated there.
There were no toilets in the cells, and twice a day we were accompanied to the toilet located in the opposite end of the corridor. In late December two soldiers with rifles appeared by the door of the cell which was adjacent to the toilet. Before that the guards had been equipped with rubber truncheons and electric shockers. We concluded that Shikhmuradov had been arrested. A day later a soldier who helped us to deliver meals (and always asked Dovlet for cigarettes) confirmed our speculation and said that Boris Shikhmuradov was being kept in that cell.
In early January court hearings began. My fellow inmates were sentenced to very lengthy imprisonment terms � Yklym to life imprisonment and Dovlet to 20 years in prison.
After the sentencing a convict is given 10 days and then he is deported. The formalities were observed. Approximately on 20 January Yklym was taken out of the cell with his belongings. Later the same day in the evening Dovlet was collected. They were convinced that they would be moved to a new prison in Ovan-Depe.
The next morning when I was escorted to the toilet I saw that feedboxes (openings in the doors of a cell used to pass in meals to inmates) in some cells were taped with white paper with stamps and signatures. Apparently they were allowed to be opened only in the presence of responsible officers. Apart from the NSM guards, officers from the Interior Ministry and the Prosecutor's office were assigned there. There were five such cells, including the cell where B. Shikhmuradov was held (riflemen were still stationed there).
During one of the following days, when going along the corridor, I recognized a mug and a bowl which belonged to Yklym. Before lunch and dinner the inmates handed over their tableware to the soldiers, which was put in front of the cell doors. Another group of soldiers put food and poured tea in them. Then a soldier opened the feedbox and handed all of these into the cell.
I understood that Yklym had not been sent to Ovan-Depe and the others sentenced to life imprisonment were still being kept there, in the pre-trial detention facility.
This happened before the evening of 2 April 2003, when I was pardoned pursuant to the personal Presidential decree (as of 01.04.2003), and released.
Testimony by source A (we have the name of this individual):
� Now I cannot recall the precise year, maybe 2003 or 2004. My brother who was employed as a guard in the prison located in Krasnovodsk (many by force of habit use the old name of the city of Turkmenbashi) said that traitors had been brought to the prison and for this reason security had been tightened and additional fences had been built.
Testimony by source B � the former NSM officer (we have the name of this individual):
� In November 2005 the inmates kept in BLT-5 were convoyed to the Ovan-Depe prison. Before convoying those, serving their sentences in this prison, there were three lists (categories). The convicts from these lists were subject to being placed in different carriages of the specially designated railroad train deigned to transport convicts. Prisoners from the first two lists were kept in ordinary prison cells whereas individuals from the third list including B. Shikhmuradov, B. Beknazarov, G. Jumaev, N. Orazgeldyev, I. Iklymov, D. Annageldiev, T. Jumaev, D. Gaipov and 9 more people (a total of 17) were kept in the cells located in the basement of the prison where those under death sentence had been previously accommodated. Nobody from these cells had been convoyed to the train carriages.
This evidence is indirectly confirmed from other sources as well.
Prisons (there are two facilities there � one for penitentiary regime and the second is the maximum security prison) were specially built far away from residential areas in Ovan-Depe in 2004 and were initially designed to accommodate those convicted for serious crimes. In early 2004 the first inmates were accommodated in the maximum security colony and in 2005 inmates from a similar colony (BL-T/5) were transferred to the penitentiary regime colony, which had been previously located in the city area in Turkmenbashi (formerly, Krasnovodsk). In late 2005 all prisoners kept in BL-T/5 were transferred to the Ovan-Depe prison, which at that time had also been referred to as BL-T/5. In 2012 it was renamed AN-T/2 of Akhal police department (the first two letters denote the regional location of the facility).
Testimony: On 26 September 2007, during his speech at Columbia University (USA), when asked Are B. Shikhmiradov and B. Berdyev alive? the President of Turkmenistan G. Berdymukhammedov answered: � As regards the two persons you are asking me about, I am convinced that they are alive.
Boris Shikhmuradov, and some other individuals convicted in connection with the assassination attempt on the President of Turkmenistan S. Niyazov in November 2002, died in prison BL-T/5 within the period from April 2003 to November 2005. For the time being it is impossible to determine a more precise date.
BL-?/5 was demolished, not because the crime rate had dropped. As we have reported in the account devoted to penitentiary facilities, three weeks prior to the demolition (June 2008) the prison accommodated three times as many inmates for which it was designed. At present, the penitentiary facilities of Turkmenistan accommodate three times as many inmates as their estimated capacity.
The basement facilities of the prison were exploded and the walls were demolished in order to destroy any evidence of the crimes committed by the country's authorities. The fact that this prison, rather than any other penitentiary facility, was demolished only proves this.
A representative of the campaign Show them alive made the following statement at the briefing during the 119th session of the UN Human Rights Committee on 6 March 2017: the authorities failed to provide any response to the opinion of the UN Human Rights Committee in October 2014 in the case of former Foreign Minister Boris Shikhmuradov and respond to statements by the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances. In their responses to the list of questions asked by the Committee against Torture in August 2016, the government ignored all questions which pertained to those who disappeared in prisons.

So you have finished your app and tested it on the simulator. Everything looks good. You're now ready to proceed with testing on your iPhone. You select the "Send iOS Debug Build" menu item and wait for the build server to work its magic, but then you're faced with a notice that iOS builds require a valid certificate and provisioning profile. What a hassle!
If you've done any iOS development (not just Codename One) I'm sure you've hit this speed-bump before. You can't just test your app on your iPhone. You have to jump through a series of hoops imposed by Apple before you get the privilege of testing your app on your phone. You need to create an App ID with the necessary permissions, generate a certificate signing request, download your certificates, generate mobile provisioning profiles to register your iPhone to be able to test your app. And finally, you have to export your certificates into a format that can be used in Codename One. If you have a Mac, this process is annoying at best. If you don't, then this process might be your show-stopper.
Personally, I find the iOS certificate process to be the single most painful part of app development. That is why I'm happy to announce that the next version of the Codename One plugin will include a wizard that generates all of these things for you with just a few mouse clicks.
To generate your certificates and profiles, simply open your project's properties, and click on "iOS" in the left menu. This will show the "iOS Signing" panel that includes fields to select your certificates and mobile provisioning profiles.
If you already have valid certificates and profiles, you can just enter their locations here. If you don't, then you can use the new wizard by clicking the "Generate" button in the lower part of the form.
After clicking "Generate" you'll be shown a login form. Log into this form using your iTunes Connect user ID and password. NOT YOUR CODENAME ONE LOGIN.
Once you are logged in you will be shown a list of all of the devices that you currently have registered on your Apple developer account.
Select the ones that you want to include in your provisioning profile and click next.
If you don't have any devices registered yet, you can click the "Add New Device" button, which will prompt you to enter the UDID for your device.
After you click "Next" on the device form, the wizard checks to see if you already have a valid certificate. If your project already has a valid certificate and it matches the one that is currently active in your apple developer account, then it will just use the same certificate. If the certificate doesn't match the currently-active one, or you haven't provided a certificate, you will be prompted to overwrite the old certificate with a new one.
The same "decisions" need to be made twice: Once for the development certificate, and once for the Apptore certificate.
The next form in the wizard asks for your app's bundle ID. This should have been prefilled, but you can change the app ID to a wildcard ID if you prefer.
Once the wizard is finished generating your provisioning profiles, you should click "Install Locally", which will open a file dialog for you to navigate to a folder in which to store the generated files.
After selecting your local install location, and closing the wizard, you should see the fields of the "iOS Signing" properties panel filled in correctly. You should now be able to send iOS debug or Appstore builds without the usual hassles.
This wizard is just the next step in our mission to simplify the app-development process. In the next while we'll be rolling out more features like this. Some planned features include push certificate generation and Appstore uploads. If there are particular aspects of the app development and deployment process that you still find cumbersome, make sure to let us know so we can work on finding solutions.
If you want to see the wizard in action, you can check out this 2 minute screencast.

Q: Array Out of bounds error VB Sorry for the terrible wording on my last question, I was half asleep and it was midnight. This time I'll try to be more clear.
I'm currently writing some code for a mini barcode scanner and stock manager program. I've got the input and everything sorted out, but there is a problem with my arrays.
I'm currently trying to extract the contents of the stock file and sort them out into product tables.
This is my current code for getting the data:
        Using fs As StreamReader = New StreamReader("The File Path (Is private)")
        Dim line As String = "ERROR"
        line = fs.ReadLine()
        While line <> Nothing

            Dim pos As Integer = 0
            Dim split(3) As String
            pos = products.Length
            split = line.Split("|")
            productCodes(productCodes.Length) = split(0)
            products(products.Length, 0) = split(1)
            products(products.Length, 1) = split(2)
            products(products.Length, 2) = split(3)
            line = fs.ReadLine()
        End While
    End Using

I have made sure that the file path does, in fact, go to the file. I have looked through debug to find that all the data is going through into my "split" table. The error throws as soon as I start trying to transfer the data.
This is where I declare the two tables being used:
    Dim productCodes() As String = {}
    Dim products(,) As Object = {}

Can somebody please explain why this is happening?
Thanks in advance
~Hydro

A: By declaring the arrays like you did:
Dim productCodes() As String = {}
Dim products(,) As Object = {}

You are assigning size 0 to all your arrays, so during your loop, it will eventually try to access a position that haven't been previously declared to the compiler. It is the same as declaring an array of size 10 Dim MyArray(10) and try to access the position 11 MyArray(11) = something.
You should either declare it with a proper size, or redim it during execution time:
Dim productCodes(10) As String

or
Dim productCodes() As String
Dim Products(,) As String
Dim Position as integer = 0
'code here
While line <> Nothing
    Redim Preserve productCodes(Position)
    Redim Preserve products(2,Position)
    Dim split(3) As String
    pos = products.Length
    split = line.Split("|")
    productCodes(Position) = split(0)
    products(0,Position) = split(1)
    products(1,Position) = split(2)
    products(2,Position) = split(3)
    line = fs.ReadLine()
    Position+=1
End While

est un film d'action russo-américain écrit et réalisé par Ilia Naïchouller, sorti en 2016. Entièrement filmé en caméra subjective, il suit pendant une journée à Moscou un homme en partie cyborg qui cherche à sauver sa femme d'un psychopathe.

Résumé détaillé du film
Henry, amnésique et gravement blessé est sur le point de mourir mais est ramené à la vie par son épouse, Estelle, qui l'a en partie transformé en cyborg. Cette dernière travaille pour Akan, un mégalomane psychotique doté de pouvoirs télékinétiques à la tête d'une armée de mercenaires. Quand ce dernier apprend qu'Estelle a soigné clandestinement Henry avec le matériel de son propre laboratoire de recherche, Akan kidnappe Estelle et envoie sa horde de sbires traquer Henry à travers Moscou. En mauvaise posture, harcelé par un ennemi qui semble omniscient et apprenant que son système cybernétique menace de lâcher à tous moments, Henry tombe sur l'aide providentielle de Jimmy, qui se présente comme son seul espoir de réussite. Ce dernier lui apprend que sa seule chance de survie se trouve dans la cage thoracique de Dimitri le Rusé (Slick Dimitri en VO), le principal bras droit d'Akan et bras armé de sa compagnie : la pompe électronique reliée à son cœur est le composant qui manque à Jimmy pour réparer le système d'Henry et le sauver d'une mort imminente. Aussitôt après cette déclaration et la remise à Henry d'un téléphone GPS, Jimmy est brûlé vif dans une attaque au lance-flammes.

Dos au mur, Henry n'a d'autre choix que d'infiltrer l'immeuble résidentiel sur-protégé de Dimitri. Après un âpre combat contre le lieutenant et sa garde rapprochée, le héros amnésique récupère de justesse la pompe dans le corps de Dimitri sous le feu d'un sniper indétectable. Aussitôt après, il reçoit un appel de Jimmy qui lui indique l'emplacement de leur prochain rendez-vous.

Arrivé au lieu, qui s'avère être une maison close chic, Henry trouve un Jimmy différent : si le premier qui l'avait approché ressemblait à un clochard, celui-ci a l'aspect d'un trader cocaïnomane profitant avec entrain des services proposés par l'établissement. Alors que le système d'Henry commence à s'éteindre et qu'un Jimmy encore différent, cette fois sobre et à l'allure de professeur, s'apprête à lui implanter la pompe, l'établissement est attaqué. Dans le combat qui s'ensuit contre des mercenaires enragés par la perte de leur chef, Henry, ranimé au dernier moment par le Jimmy professeur (qui s'enfuit aussitôt après), reçoit l'aide du Jimmy cocaïnomane, pris d'une folie meurtrière, et de deux énigmatiques tueuses physiquement identiques usant de katanas et semblant avoir des comptes à régler avec Jimmy. Confronté à Akan, contre lequel il ne peut rivaliser, Henry s'échappe par un conduit de ventilation et se retrouve dans un parking souterrain sous le strip-club, face au cadavre du Jimmy cocaïnomane. Aussitôt réapparaissent les tueuses jumelles, qui réprimandent un Jimmy bien vivant et se comportant comme un hippie, qui leur propose de le suivre, incitant aussitôt après Henry à monter dans son Side-cars. S'ensuit une fusillade routière contre des camions d'Akan, dans laquelle le Jimmy hippie disparaît après le crash de son side-car, et où l'une des jumelles est écrasée par un camion ennemi.

Dans le dernier camion, Henry retrouve un court instant Estelle, avant qu'Akan et le nouveau capitaine des mercenaires, Yuri, ne fassent irruption dans le véhicule, offrant au protagoniste de le laisser partir en échange de la vie d'Estelle. Ce dernier refuse et prend la place de sa femme, qui se retrouve sauve mais une fois de plus prisonnière, alors qu'il est propulsé par Akan hors du camion lancé à pleine vitesse. Étendu en pleine forêt, son système sur le point de s'éteindre, Henry est retrouvé juste à temps par le Jimmy hippie et la jumelle restante. Jimmy effectue avec succès l'implantation du nouveau composant et « redémarre » Henry, le plongeant dans un coma de courte durée. Quand le héros se réveille, il profite d'un court instant de répit avec ses compagnons avant que Jimmy ne soit frappé sous ses yeux par un tir de missiles et qu'un morceau de shrapnel ne tue sur le coup la dernière jumelle. Sous une pluie de roquettes, Henry se lance dans une course à pied effrénée dans les bois, n'ayant que le temps de récupérer le katana de son alliée défunte. Il finit finalement par contre-attaquer, usant du sabre pour massacrer l'équipage du tank qui le poursuivait. S'attaquant dans la foulée à un commando héliporté et manquant de faire une chute mortelle, Henry est stoppé dans sa folie vengeresse par un appel de Jimmy, qu'il a déjà vu mourir trois fois. Ce dernier lui donne une nouvelle fois les coordonnées d'un lieu de rendez-vous, dans une forêt non loin. Après la tentative ratée d'utiliser un cheval comme moyen de transport, le cyborg amnésique, dépité, se rend à pied sur les lieux du rendez-vous, seulement pour être surpris par Jimmy, en tenue ghillie et armé d'un fusil de sniper, qui lui dit qu'il va le mener à son laboratoire secret, situé dans un hôtel abandonné en pleine forêt.

Arrivé sur les lieux, le duo tombe sur un groupe de policiers s'apprêtant à violer une jeune fille. Malgré les protestations de Jimmy, qui voit dans le sauvetage de la victime le dévoilement de l'emplacement de son laboratoire, Henry élimine une partie des policiers, forçant son compagnon à intervenir quand le dernier d'entre eux s'apprête à le tuer. Arrivant dans le laboratoire, un confortable appartement caché dans l'immense hôtel abandonné, Jimmy explique à Henry la raison de ses retours à la vie si fréquents : ancien laborantin travaillant pour Akan à l'élaboration d'une armée de cyborgs lobotomisés et surpuissants (une description qui correspond parfaitement au personnage principal), Jimmy s'est retrouvé paralysé par son patron quand ce dernier estima que le projet avançait trop lentement à son goût. Retiré dans son laboratoire secret, cloué sur sa chaise roulante, Jimmy utilisa ses capacités brillantes de neuro-informaticien pour fabriquer sa propre petite armée de clones à son image, qu'il se jura d'utiliser pour se venger d'Akan. Jugeant qu'il était meilleur d'attendre le bon moment pour mettre son plan à exécution, Jimmy passa quelques années à vivre différentes vies, toutes plus intenses les unes que les autres, par l'intermédiaire de ses différents clones, qu'il commande à distance grâce à un casque de réalité virtuelle intégré à son fauteuil, leur créant ainsi un style et une manière de se battre propres à chacun. Voyant dans Henry l'allié parfait contre Akan, il mit un terme à sa multi-vie délurée pour aider le protagoniste. Peu après sa rencontre avec le vrai Jimmy (l'Handicapé) et les  différents clones restants (le Punk, le Professeur, le Colonel et le Costumé en plus du Sniper rencontré auparavant), Henry se retrouve confronté par ce dernier, qui découvre la raison pour laquelle les mercenaires retrouvent toujours la trace d'Henry : tout ce qu'il voit est retransmis à la salle de contrôle d'Akan. Furieux que la position de son laboratoire soit compromise, Jimmy déchaîne ses clones sur Henry, qui leur tient tête de justesse. Muet des suites de blessures antérieures au film, Henry tente tant bien que mal de faire comprendre à Jimmy qu'il n'était au courant de rien. Après un combat au cours duquel Henry blesse Le Professeur et tue le Costumé, Jimmy accepte de croire Henry et se range à nouveau de son côté.

Néanmoins, rien n'est fini : les mercenaires d'Akan, menés par Yuri en personne, investissent le périmètre de l'hôtel. Alors que le Colonel place l'Handicapé et le Professeur sur un monte-charge, Henry et le Sniper montent sur le toit, éliminant à distance un nombre considérable de mercenaires. Le Punk, déchaîné et armé jusqu'aux dents, fait alors irruption dans leur ligne de mire, massacrant au corps à corps les ennemis restants sur cette face du bâtiment avant de mourir dans l'explosion d'un camion. Le Sniper, après avoir ordonné à Henry de rejoindre le colonel pour défendre le monte-charge, meurt lui aussi dans un attentat-suicide contre un nouveau groupe de mercenaires. S'armant à l'arsenal du laboratoire, Henry aide le Colonel à piéger l'appartement. Le duo s'engage ensuite dans la défense du monte-charge tandis ce que celui-ci descend jusqu'au rez-de chaussée. Éliminant des groupes entiers d'ennemis grâce à une coopération technique et l'usage abusif de grenades, Henry et le Colonel arrivent dans le hall de l'hôtel, où ils s'apprêtent à décharger l'Handicapé et le Professeur. Ils sont alors surpris par Yuri, le capitaine des mercenaires, à la tête d'un groupe considérable d'hommes, qui les tiennent en joue. Jouant son va-tout, le Colonel déclenche à distance les charges placées dans le laboratoire, faisant s'effondrer le plafond sur les mercenaires et tuant le capitaine. Le groupe s'enfuit alors de l'hôtel en ruine, roulant toute la journée et ne s'arrêtant qu'occasionnellement pour éliminer leurs poursuivants. À la tombée de la nuit, revenu en centre-ville, Henry et Les Jimmys pénètrent dans le siège de la compagnie d'Akan, où ils se trouvent pris d'assaut par les troupes d'élite d'Akan, notamment par le mercenaire au lance-flammes, responsable de la mort du premier Jimmy. Henry tue ce dernier puis, armé d'un bouclier anti-émeute et d'un lance-grenades, couvre la progression du fauteuil roulant dans le hall de la tour. Le Professeur se réveille alors et meurt dans sa tentative d'affronter un commando d'élite avec une hache à incendie.

Arrivés dans l'ascenseur qui les mène aux quartiers privés d'Akan, le Colonel révèle à Henry les blessures qu'il a accumulées depuis l'hôtel. À l'agonie, il confesse à Henry que, dans la forêt lors de la réparation de ses systèmes, il avait constaté la présence d'un bloqueur de mémoire dans le cerveau d'Henry, qui le rendait amnésique. Voulant continuer d'utiliser Henry dans sa quête de revanche, il n'avait pas jugé utile de lui faire recouvrer la mémoire. À l'aide d'un appareil portatif, le Colonel utilise ses dernières forces pour débloquer les souvenirs du cyborg avant de trépasser sur le sol de l'ascenseur. Enlevant enfin son casque de réalité virtuelle, le Jimmy original, lui aussi au bord de la mort, encourage Henry à tuer Akan pour le venger.

La porte de l'ascenseur s'ouvre sur un Henry à bout de forces -et de batterie, mais poussé par la perte de son ami. Se débarrassant des derniers mercenaires défendant l'entrée des quartiers d'Akan, le protagoniste pénètre les lieux déserts. Sur un écran de télé, Henry voit alors Akan entouré de son armée de cyborg, qui lui révèle que toutes les données enregistrées par son système depuis le début de la journée (l'histoire tient sur une journée, à Moscou) sont téléchargées dans la mémoire des cyborgs, qui sont d'ailleurs équipés des mêmes implants que lui. Ainsi, tous les autres cyborgs pensent qu'Estelle est leur femme, et sont poussés par la même folie meurtrière, excepté que la leur est dirigée vers Henry et non Akan. Ce dernier se montre en possession d'une des culottes d'Estelle, laissant à croire qu'Henry a aussi été piégé à penser que la chercheuse était sa femme. Réalisant que les vagues de mercenaires n'étaient là que pour entraîner les machines à tuer d'Akan et qu'il a servi malgré lui de système d'entrainement pour ses propres ennemis, Henry est surpris par un premier cyborg, version neuve et chargée a bloc de lui-même, dont il a beaucoup de mal à se débarrasser. S'ouvrant la cage thoracique à mains nues, Henry, imitant les gestes de Jimmy, remplace sa batterie par celle du cyborg, donnant un sursaut d'énergie à son système. S'ensuit un combat épique d'un Henry au sommet de sa forme résistant contre une centaine de demi-hommes égaux à lui. Usant de tous les éléments à sa portée sur le toit de l'immeuble (barbelés électrifiés, tournevis, tourelle radio, armes à feu et, bien entendu, grenades), Henry fait face coûte que coûte à la horde d'Akan. Sur le toit en proie aux flammes, le héros, après s'être injecté deux fois la dose maximale d'adrénaline recommandée, vient à bout, à mains nues, des cyborgs restants, avant de faire face à Akan, qui, usant de ses pouvoirs, assomme Henry d'un revers de main.

À demi-conscient, Henry voit Estelle révéler qu'elle faisait partie du plan d'Akan et qu'elle sert de motivation aux cyborgs pour exécuter les ordres de son vrai mari, Akan. Ce dernier félicite Henry pour avoir parfaitement rempli son rôle, et explique que le groupe qu'Henry vient d'affronter n'était qu'un échantillon, et que le nombre de machines à tuer calquées sur le modèle d'Henry augmenteront exponentiellement dans les mois à venir. Akan frappe une dernière fois Henry, pensant l'achever. Ce dernier, dont la mémoire a été débloquée par Jimmy dans ses derniers instants, accède à un souvenir d'avant qu'il soit devenu un cyborg : enfant, Henry fut frappé par des garnements qui brisèrent son jouet préféré. Son père, chassant ses agresseurs, lui donna le choix entre « rester là et avaler le sang que t'as dans la bouche, ou te lever, le cracher par terre et aller répandre le leur ».

Souriant à son propre reflet dans un morceau de verre, Henry se relève, et, armé d'un fil barbelé enroulé autour de son poing, se jette sur Akan. Réduisant la puissance de ses pouvoirs psychiques en lui déchiquetant une main, Henry affronte Akan et s'accroche à lui alors que ce dernier entre en lévitation. Utilisant son propre nerf optique, Henry décapite Akan, tuant dans l'œuf son projet de dictature mondiale. Sautant dans l'hélicoptère dans lequel Estelle tente de quitter le toit de la tour, Henry confronte celle qu'il croyait être sa femme. Cette dernière, aveuglée par le chagrin causé par la vue de la tête coupée de son mari, abat Henry à l'aide d'un revolver. Quand elle lui demande dans un accès de colère comment il a pu faire ça, Henry écrit avec son sang « Ez » (pour « Easy », "facilement"), déchaînant la colère de la traîtresse qui lui tire dessus, visant la tête. Usant de la fausse alliance qu'Estelle lui avait donné, Henry pare la balle, qui se retourne contre son envoyeuse. Touchée, Estelle titube et trébuche, manquant de chuter de l'appareil en s'agrippant à la porte. Elle crie alors à Henry d'écouter son cœur. Celui-ci ferme brusquement la porte de l'hélicoptère, sectionnant les doigts d'Estelle et la condamnant à une chute mortelle.

Ce court-métrage, dont le réalisateur n'est autre qu'Ilia Naïchouller, est d'ailleurs le point de départ du film, le producteur Timour Bekmambetov y ayant vu du potentiel pour un long métrage.

Hardcore Henry est entièrement filmé avec une caméra Go Pro.

Sortie
La première du film a lieu le  à l'occasion du festival international du film de Toronto 2015. Le film y est très remarqué et fait l'objet d'une guerre d'offres de distribution entre Lionsgate, Universal Studios et , lequel l'obtient finalement pour 10 millions de dollars, faisant du film la première acquisition du festival.

Distinctions
Lors du festival international du film de Toronto 2015, le film gagne le prix du public dans la section Midnight Madness.

P-40 and First American Volunteer Group "Flying Tigers"
We strive for the highest standards of integrity and professionalism as a heritage organization of the American Volunteer Group, The original flying tigers.
Founded in in 2017, General Chennault Flying Tiger Academy is the only flight school endorsed by and held to the standards of the Chennault Foundation. The Chennault Foundation began in 2015 and has been a strong supporter of every aspect of aviation. Chennault Flying Tiger Academy is the culmination of General Chennault's legacy to the Chinese people and a living testament to the heroes of WWII both in the air and on the ground.
To live up to the legacy of Gen Claire Chennault and his Flying Tigers, Chennault Flying Tiger Academy must meet standards that exceed every other pilot training operation in the civilian market. We do this by focusing on development and ongoing improvement to our syllabus, pricing, training methods, staff qualifications, and environmental factors that make the flight training experience at one that provides a level of competency and judgement in our graduates that is seldom found in low time commercial pilots and flight instructors.
General Chennault Flying Tiger Academy carries on the legacy of the founder with flight training that meets the standards of excellence that made the flying tigers of WWII heroes to Americans and the Chinese people.

6 undeveloped islands to visit
Outdoor Trip Planning
Tim Patterson
25 YEARS AGO, a few intrepid travelers found paradise in the Andaman Sea. Phi Phi Island, off the coast of southern Thailand, was almost totally undeveloped.
There were no resorts on Phi Phi – just white sand beaches and palm trees, plus a small village of sea gypsies who called themselves "the island people."
Travelers who made the epic journey to Phi Phi returned to the mainland with glittering eyes and epic stories. More travelers caught the once-a-week cargo ship to this new island paradise, then more and more and more.
Today, Phi Phi is packed with tourists. Dozens of resorts line the once-empty beaches and trash floats in the water off concrete piers built to accommodate large ferries.
Phi Phi is still beautiful, "a discovered paradise still worth checking out" as Matador founder Ross Borden puts it, but for those who knew the island before the crowds arrived, Phi Phi is a tragic example of Paradise Lost.
A call for RESPECT
Some of the islands described below are on the track to development, though early in the stage. Some are already protected. It's up to you, as a sensitive and engaged traveler, to respect the information below, to preserve the natural environment and to honor the people who call these island Edens home.
-Tim Patterson, Editor, MatadorTrips.com
6. Koh Rong, Cambodia
Photo: BlueOrange Studio/Shutterstock
Koh Rong is bigger and more beautiful than the most famous Thai islands, but there are no established beach resorts on Koh Rong yet, simply because it's in Cambodia.
In 2007 your faithful Koh Rong correspondent camped in an abandoned house on 6 miles of white sand beach, and survived scary encounters with illegal loggers and Cambodian Navy men.
In 2014, there still isn't running water, and electricity is only available for a few hours a day, but there's wifi everywhere on the island… There's also word of heavy investment on Koh Rong, with big money flowing to the boss man in Phnom Penh and rumors of Russian, Japanese, and Chinese investors. By 2020, there should be a luxury resort built.
5. Bohol, Philippines
Photo: ostill/Shutterstock
I have a confession. The Philippines intimidate me. There are just too many islands, too many languages, too much history.
How to pick just one of more than 7,000 islands?
Matador expert Casey Gusto lived on Bohol island in the Philippines for 2 years. Bohol gets a lot of tourists, he says, which it should – it's one of the most beautiful islands in the whole archipelago.
But there are gorgeous parts of Bohol that are not developed, including outlying islands, where you can chill with some of the friendliest locals in the world.
4. Cuttyhunk, Massachusetts, USA
Photo: Danita Delimont/Shutterstock
Cuttyhunk is one of the most laid-back island "summer communities" off the coast of New England. There's nothing to do except catch enormous striped bass, breathe fresh sea air, and sniff about the new money that ruined Nantucket.
Cuttyhunk.net says it best:
Cuttyhunk does not have discos, bars, malls, a singles scene, a party life, video games, parking lots, traffic, or much action.
What Cuttyhunk does have is a quiet, isolated, beautiful, ocean environment, perfect for getting in touch with yourself.
For bonus points, arrive in Cuttyhunk on your own sailboat.
3. Teuri-to, Japan
Photo: sparrow0128/Shutterstock
Teuri-to is a lot like Cuttyhunk, except it's off the northern coast of Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan, way north of Vladivostok, Russia.
The fresh sushi and sashimi on Teuri is quite simply the best and cheapest I found in 2 years of traveling around Japan and the locals will be thrilled to see you.
2. Providencia, Colombia
Providencia is the less developed of two isolated islands that lie off Colombia's Caribbean coast, near the border with Nicaragua.
Construction on the island is limited and the inhabitants own all the hotels so as to contain the dangers on the environment of becoming too popular for tourists.
Thanks to Richard, one of Matador's many Colombia experts, for the heads-up:
Long stretches of white sandy beaches, verdant hillsides and palm trees lining the streets. Over the five days we rented a moped to explore the island, lazed on deserted beaches, drifted in the breeze in hammocks, slept late and enjoyed some cold ones with the locals. It was a cliche, it was paradise.
1. Salt Cay, Turks and Caicos Islands
Photo: Ariane27/Shutterstock
I thought I'd never write about Salt Cay. It's a special place to my friends and family, truly a second home, just a low-lying slab of coral, sand, and memories 90 miles north of Haiti, as far from the corruption and resort glitz of the capital island Provodenciales as you can get in the Turk and Caicos islands (which are south of the Bahamas).
Salt Cay is the most beautiful island I know, not because of the sunsets, empty beaches, neighborly humpback whales or free-range donkeys, but because of the pious, good-humored and hard-working people who live there.
the project of the whole island being ripped in half for a mega-resort, complete with golf course and yacht marina came to a halt recently, but the future of the island is looking grim. The airport has been lengthened to accommodate private jets and the rapid growth of tourism on the island has already damaged the coral reef and the shorlines.
The development in the Turks and Caicos is getting ugly. I wonder if I'll ever go back there, and I can't write about this anymore.

New Record Settled For Mega Millions Lottery: $476 million
Angel Libby March 28, 2012 6:40 am January 1, 2017 0 1141
According to a recent report published by Fox News, a new record has been established for the Mega Millions Lottery. Since nobody guessed the winning numbers during the last night's extraction, the lottery pot for Friday is now worth $476 million.
It's been a long time since the Mega Millions Lottery has had a winner and now the jackpot has reached an all-time record of $476 million. $363 million was the jackpot that was available on Tuesday night, but the winning numbers were not selected by any of the players. The following extraction is scheduled for Friday when participants will get a chance of winning a slice of the big lottery pie.
Although there wasn't an actual winner during last night's Mega Millions show there have been several players that came close to winning the jackpot. During the Tuesday's game, 47 players nailed 5 numbers out of 6, thus winning important sums of money. Their tickets were worth at least 250 thousand dollars, a significant sum of money that was very appreciated by winners.
The numbers that were extracted last night were 9, 19, 34, 44, 51, whereas the Mega Ball was 24. There are many tactics that players can use in order to win some money; however, the majority of the players want to get their hands on the big prize. The jackpot was last won on January 24 when Garcia Adams, 33, got a $72 million prize and chose the cash option of $52 million.
According to analysts, there is 1 chance in 40 of winning the jackpot depending on the tickets that players buy. The value of the Mega Millions pot is determined by the number of sold tickets. The lottery managed to sell 2.9 million tickets before last night's extraction.
The latest Mega Millions Lottery record was registered in 2007. Back then, the jackpot was worth $390 million, but the prize was divided between two winners, one in New Jersey and the other one in Georgia.

With the crisp sound of a bottle breaking…
"What's this? Wu!"
"Ou!"
"I……can't……can't breathe……"
Then, the whole world became quiet.
Yi Ti, standing near the alley, broke out in cold sweat. She just upgraded it a little bit, but it wouldn't kill people, right?
Thinking of this, she took out a well-washed handkerchief from her pants pocket, unfolded it and wrapped Cecil in it. Holding him in her palms, she asked softly: "How was it?" Although because of being upwind, she didn't smell anything, his sense of smell was too good.
Cecil rolled back and forth in her palms, signaling that he was fine.
Yi Ti silently retracted one hand and wiped her nose, en, very good, no nosebleed.
"Cough!"
After ten seconds, Yi Ti stayed close to the walls as she quietly peeked at the alley. She saw two people and a cat lying on the ground, not moving at all and with faint foam on their lips.
She hurried in, squatted down and checked if they're breathing. She was relieved they're still alive. But then she was troubled. These guys shouldn't be able to wake up for a while, and she also couldn't just leave them here.
Yi Ti scratched her head annoyingly. After putting Cecil to the side, she tentatively stretched out her arms, hugged Liang Chen's waist, then pulled up with all her strength……
"Ah?"
She looked in surprise at the young man who was easily lifted by her, thinking that there must be something wrong. Wasn't this guy too light? Yi Ti quickly let go of him and used Lu Kong to experiment. The final conclusion was——she could do it effortlessly!
"Xiao Ti, what happened?"
"Don't you find it strange?" Yi Ti was dizzy. Was she wrong or was Cecil wrong? Why was his tone so calm, "I easily lifted them up!"
"Isn't this normal?"
"Hah?" Yi Ti was stunned then immediately reacted, "Is this……just how effective is the genetic modification potion?"
"Yes." Cecil replied, "It can improve your physical fitness. Actually not only that, the breathing exercise that you've been practicing also has the same effect."
"……why didn't I realize it at all?" It's not that she didn't understand, it's just that the world changed too fast!
Cecil explained: "Because this change wasn't made overnight, it was subtle. Every time you cultivate or use a potion, your strength will increase and because it's not beyond a certain range, you haven't lost control of it."
"Is that so……" Yi Ti remembered that she often saw such plots in novels. Someone's strength raised sharply because of cultivation, so their body couldn't adapt for a while, either walking too fast and hitting the wall or crushing the bowl with too much strength during a meal. This was the so-called growing beyond a certain range. And she was just the opposite, she didn't do much heavy lifting, so much so that she never noticed it.
"This is incredible." Yi Ti stared blankly at her hands, "I suddenly became Superwoman or something……" Shouldn't she be wearing panties outside soon? ……No, let's forget about this.
Also, this was not the time to think about it.
She shook her head, bent down and lifted the two young men easily, then put them on her shoulder. Cecil sat upright on her head while stretching out two tentacles. The yellow and white cat A'Jiang on the ground was bound and lifted up, hanging behind Yi Ti. From a distance, it'd be like she's carrying a cat-shaped backpack.
"Let's go back."
As a result, this became the story of a superwoman named Yi Ti embarking on her journey home. Have to say, she was lucky since she met no one along the way. Otherwise, the best tweet of the day would be that she didn't run.
While walking, the two men on her shoulders gradually regained consciousness.
"I'm here……! ! !" =皿= ! ! !
"Stinks……! ! !" =皿= ! ! !
"Are you awake?" Yi Ti glanced at the two dumb faced young men, then asked teasingly, "Is it uncomfortable? Be patient, we'll be there soon."
Liang Chen: "……"
Lu Kong: "……"
They must be dreaming! ! !
Then they closed their eyes at the same time.
However, self-deception wasn't that simple.
The thick-skinned Lu Kong looked at Yi Ti with teary eyes: "Can you tell me, what the hell happened?" Why did he suddenly faint? Why was he carried on a woman's shoulder? This must be because his posture of waking up this morning was not correct! Can he faint again and start over?
"Do you still need to ask? It's definitely because of her!" Liang Chen, who had eaten a loss from Yi Ti, said, "Yi Ti, you wait for me!"
"This wicked monster is so arrogant!"
"You dead Taoist, shut up for me!"
"You shut up for me!"
"You shut up!"
Yi Ti: "……" Could these two be even more boring and naive? Anyway, they're already adults! Why can't they be more mature?
Then she knew——they really couldn't.
The two guys who were noisy actually didn't care about their current position. Liang Chen pinched Lu Kong's face while Lu Kong poked Liang Chen's nostrils with one hand and pulled his hair with the other. The two busily annoyed each other.
Yi Ti's mood also changed from "= =" to "=皿=", and finally to "= =+". Since they're being intolerable, there's no need to endure!
"Stop it for me! ! !"
Yi Ti shouted, raising her foot and stomping on a stone by the roadside.
When the two young men heard this, they watched in amazement. Her feet actually stomped through the stone and firmly landed on the ground. When she raised it again, there was only the gray stone corpse on the ground. The powder was delicate and abnormal, like how the two fragile hearts in their chests had been scared to pieces.
Then, the whole world was quiet again.
Yi Ti: I just tried it out, didn't expect it to work so well.
So, the soft girl managed to GET new skills!
Soon, Yi Ti successfully carried them back to the flower shop. She tossed them to the ground none too gently, gently put the cat on the table, and after holding Cecil in her arms extremely tenderly, she sat on the chair, looking at them sincerely: "Let's settle the dispute peacefully."
Liang Chen snorted coldly: "I don't have anything to say to this Taoist!"
Lu Kong sneered: "I also have this meaning!"
Yi Ti silently put the teacup lid that she had broken to hundreds of little pieces on the table.
Lu Kong swallowed, then slightly coughed: "Cough, in fact, talking is also possible."
"Hmph." Liang Chen snorted coldly but said nothing else.
"Who wants to go first?"
"This wolf demon attacked me first."
"I'm a werewolf!" Liang Chen gritted his teeth.
Lu Kong waved his sleeves: "Is there a difference? Let me tell you, don't think you're a turtle!"
"Country bumpkin."
"Who are you scolding?"
"You poor fake."
"You bastard lack……"
Yi Ti gloomily crushed another teacup lid.
The two young men swallowed at the same time and closed their mouths again.
Have to say, an angry person was the most terrible. Probably because this kind of person always smiled, so once they reached the other extreme, it would make people tremble at the strong sense of contrast.
At least the Lu Kong and Liang Chen now never wanted to oppose the woman in front of them.
What they didn't know was that Yi Ti was reviewing at the moment: Although the newly obtained force deterrence seemed to be a very effective skill, it's too expensive. In just a few moments, two cup lids were gone. In the future, it looked like she needed to put some bricks in the house since it wouldn't cost too much if she pinched it.
"Lu Kong, I know why Liang Chen attacked you, it's because of Hong Ye."
"Hong Ye?"
"It's the little dog demon." Yi Ti said, "He was badly injured."
Lu Kong: "……what about now?"
"What garlic did you pack?" The werewolf snorted, "It's useless to hide it, I can smell it. The sword that cut him is the one in the wooden box on your back."
After Lu Kong froze, he sighed, then looked at Yi Ti: "If I say I didn't mean it, would you believe me?"
Soon after arriving in this city, Lu Kong received a commission from a couple.
Because the couple was always busy at work, they could only ask a babysitter to take care of their child. But recently, the last nanny resigned because of urgent matters and the new babysitter hadn't been found yet, so they could only temporarily lock their child at home.
But these days, they thought their child was a little strange. There was only one child in their family, but when asked what he did during the day, he often told that he played with someone which made people feel crept out. They specifically reprimanded him for this, but the child cried while insisting that he wasn't lying. While the couple was afraid, they didn't dare set up hidden cameras at home because they're afraid of seeing bad things. After all, in fiction movies, this was simply a death flag. So just after he moved in, they found Lu Kong.
Under Lu Kong's exploration, he noticed that the child's bedroom was full of sinister aura and immediately understood that it was a monster.
Most "monster" species had contracts with practitioners, so no one attacked humans. However, just as there would still be crimes even with the law in place, there would always be monsters who would persist in hunting humans.
So he put a lock in the child's room, wanting to grab this monster and ask it carefully.
To this end, he specifically asked the parents to take the child away while he used a strawman as a stand-in—— inside was the characters of the child's birthday and bloodstains. But he did not expect, don't know how the child came to know that his parents intended to "remove the demon", so the child rushed into the bedroom at a critical juncture and shouted, "run!"
In a hurry, Lu Kong waved the magic sword. He only wanted to stop the monster, but he did not expect that it would escape even when injured.
It was also with a quick glance below that he realized that the other party was still in its infancy.

Since I can't stand not having updates to my favorite novels, I've volunteered myself to go through the jungle called Google Translate as I look for clues to understand the jumbled mess called English it spits out whenever I feed it with other eastern languages.

How might the experience of a trip to Mars differ in comfort and heath impact from a stint on the ISS?
A comment below the question How will they mitigate the effect microgravity in the BFR on manned trip to mars? suggests that the trip might be as short as 3 months, which is significantly shorter than the typical 5-6 months spent on the ISS. So far, it seems that it is likely to be a similar microgravity environment with no Coriolis-laden rotation for artificial gravity.
There will be more radiation since Earth's magnetic field will be far behind, and that's been well discussed on this site and a bit by Elon Musk; for energetic solar events there will likely be shielded areas where the occupants can retreat for the duration.
So it sounds like while there may be "nicer" accommodations (e.g. "cabins", perhaps even with reasonable facsimiles of doors instead of what they have now (see GIF and GIF) will the physical environment "feel" in any way significantly different on an interplanetary mission than an orbital one?
I can't think of anything beyond the availability of specific creature comforts that might be installed, are there any that would be the direct result of differences between an Earth-orbit experience and an interplanetary experience?
Depending on how successful the as-yet-untried art of appendectomies in freefall turns out to be, the difference in health impact may be large.
Update: Just a few days ago MIT held a workshop on this topic. From Psychology Today's Stressed? Just Imagine Going to Mars; Workshop to explore loss of privacy, use of digital technologies in space.
The first astronauts needed the Right Stuff as they launched into Earth orbit. A new generation of astronauts will need much more as they travel to the Red Planet, facing unprecedented stresses on their much longer missions. This week researchers will gather in Cambridge, Massachusetts to develop concrete ways to design spacecraft to be hospitable environments. "Future space missions take crew members further and longer from the comforts of Earth in space flight vehicles that are relatively smaller compared to the International Space Station. These isolation and confinement hazards create behavioral health and performance risks to the crew that we want to address in a meaningful way with habitable vehicle design," said Dorit Donoviel, director of the Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH), which is sponsoring the meeting Spaces in Space: Optimizing Behavioral Health and Cognitive Performance in Confined Environments. The workshop, called Space2 for short, will take place February 6-7, 2019 at the MIT Media Lab, which is also sponsoring the event. Sessions will be freely available by livestream for anyone who registers.
The block-quoted text is from the Seeker article Hre Are the Five Biggest Dangers NASA Astronauts Face which draws directly from those five NASA podcasts and transcripts linked abvoe.
NASA is also looking at countermeasures to reduce radiation risk during long missions.
"If you can get there faster, that's probably the biggest thing... because that minimizes the time you have to spend in space," says NASA scientist Zarana Patel in the podcast. So more efficient propulsion might be one way to reduce exposure. Future spacecraft could also make use of magnetic shielding to protect the crews. Or perhaps there's another technology out there that hasn't been invented yet.
Seniors, people with disabilities, and people living in harsh environments all face a similar issue — isolation. If there are few options to leave your house and see other people and participate in what many consider "normal" life, it's difficult for humans to function psychologically. In space, that isolation is also extreme. Astronauts must remain inside of a small space station for six to 12 months at a time, only going "outside" during a spacewalk — and that's if they're lucky and have one scheduled.
[...] One sign of crew stress shows up in how they sleep. One research study cited in the podcast showed that in a sample size of 21 people, crews on the space station aren't sleeping well roughly 29% of the time. (To put that in time perspective, that's roughly two months out of a six-month mission.) NASA is still trying to figure out how to help astronauts adapt to isolation and a strange environment.
NASA already has its crews trained in basic medical procedures in space, so they can deal with many common issues by themselves. This not only cuts down on superfluous calls to the ground, but the astronauts can also report symptoms precisely instead of giving a vague description, says NASA astronaut and former flight surgeon Mike Barratt.
[...] The best way NASA can think of to manage problems is to have as much expertise on the crew as possible. One of the ways that they manage risk is to say that every planetary mission must include a physician-level crew member on board. Another way is to look at the history of space exploration, as well as similarly remote environments such as submarines and Antarctica, to see which human health problems come up the most. A surprise one was urinary tract infections, which affect men in space far more often than on Earth. So NASA is building up its database to try to keep its astronauts safe.
"On muscle and bone, you have de-loading effects which can be mitigated by extensive exercise," says NASA's Peter Norsk.
NASA is especially concerned with how a lack of gravity and increased space radiation could hurt explorers on the way to the moon or Mars. On Earth, we are protected from most forms of radiation due to the atmosphere; in space, explorers in low-Earth orbit still get a little less radiation than in deep space due to Earth's magnetic field, which deflects some radiation from space. But on the way to Mars, that's not the case.
Norsk said that doctors still don't understand how radiation can affect astronaut bone and muscle. It's hard to simulate deep-space radiation on Earth, and we only sent a handful of astronauts to the moon back in the 1960s and 1970s.
One of the things that hurts astronauts in space is the loss of a regular "day" in space. The sun rises and sets 16 times in 24 hours aboard the ISS, because astronauts hurtle around the Earth once every 90 minutes. While crews do as much as possible to keep their bodies to a schedule – like eating at regular times and having firm sleep periods – it's pretty difficult to fool the brain when light and dark keeps changing outside the window.
Right now, doctors are trying to better firm up the circadian cycle by improving sleep for astronauts, which means reducing noise, making their schedules less stressful in the evening so that they can wind down, and taking other measures.
