Denton True "Cy" Young (March 29, 1867 – November 4, 1955) was an American Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher. Born in Gilmore, Ohio, he worked on his family's farm as a youth before starting his professional baseball career. Young entered the major leagues in 1890 with the National League's Cleveland Spiders and pitched for them until 1898. He was then transferred to the St. Louis Cardinals franchise. In 1901, Young jumped to the American League and played for the Boston Red Sox franchise until 1908, helping them win the 1903 World Series. He finished his career with the Cleveland Naps and Boston Rustlers, retiring in 1911.
Young was one of the hardest-throwing pitchers in the game early in his career. After his speed diminished, he relied more on his control and remained effective into his forties. By the time Young retired, he had established numerous pitching records, some of which have stood for over a century. He holds MLB records for the most career wins, with 511, along with most career innings pitched, games started, and complete games. He led his league in wins during five seasons and pitched three no-hitters, including a perfect game.
Young was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1937. In 1956, one year after his death, the Cy Young Award was created to honor the best pitcher in each league for each season.

3 Later life
Cy Young was the oldest child born to McKinzie Young, Jr. a German American and Nancy Mottmiller. He was christened Denton True Young. The couple had four more children: Jesse Carlton, Alonzo, Ella, and Anthony. When the couple married, McKinzie's father gave him the 54 acres (220,000 m2) of farm land he owned.[1] Young was born in Gilmore, a tiny farming community located in Washington Township, Tuscarawas County, Ohio.
He was raised on one of the local farms and went by the name Dent Young in his early years.[2] Young was also known as "Farmer Young" and "Farmboy Young". Young stopped his formal education after he completed the sixth grade[3] so he could help out on the family's farm. In 1885, Young moved with his father to Nebraska, and in the summer of 1887, they returned to Gilmore.
Young played for many amateur baseball leagues during his youth, including a semi-professional Carrollton team in 1888. Young pitched and played second base. The first box score known containing the name Young came from that season. In that game, Young played first base and had three hits in three at-bats. After the season, Young received an offer to play for the minor league Canton team, which started Young's professional career.[1]
Professional baseball career[edit]
Minor leagues[edit]
Young began his professional career in 1889 with the Canton, Ohio, team of the Tri-State League, a professional minor league. During his tryout, Young impressed the scouts, recalling years later, "I almost tore the boards off the grandstand with my fast ball."[4] Cy Young's nickname came from the fences that he had destroyed using his fastball. The fences looked like a cyclone had hit them. Reporters later shortened the name to "Cy", which became the nickname Young used for the rest of his life.[5] During Young's one year with the Canton team, he won 15 games and lost 15.[2]
Franchises in the National League, the major professional baseball league at the time, wanted the best players available to them. Therefore, in 1890, Young signed with the Cleveland Spiders, a team which had moved from the American Association to the National League the previous year.
Cleveland Spiders[edit]
On August 6, 1890, Young's major league debut, he pitched a three-hit 8–1 victory over the Chicago Colts.[6] While Young was on the Spiders, Chief Zimmer was his catcher more often than any other player. Bill James, a baseball statistician, estimated that Zimmer caught Young in more games than any other battery in baseball history.[7]
Early on, Young established himself as one of the harder-throwing pitchers in the game. Bill James wrote that Zimmer often put a piece of beefsteak inside his baseball glove to protect his catching hand from Young's fastball.[7] In the absence of radar guns, however, it is impossible to say just how hard Young actually threw. Young continued to perform at a high level during the 1890 season. On the last day of the season, Young won both games of a doubleheader.[3] In the first weeks of Young's career, Cap Anson, the player-manager of the Chicago Colts spotted Young's ability. Anson told Spiders manager Gus Schmelz, "He's too green to do your club much good, but I believe if I taught him what I know, I might make a pitcher out of him in a couple of years. He's not worth it now, but I'm willing to give you $1,000 ($28,456 today) for him." Schmelz replied, "Cap, you can keep your thousand and we'll keep the rube."[8]
Young in 1891
Two years after Young's debut, the National League moved the pitcher's position back by 5 feet (1.5 m). Since 1881, pitchers had pitched within a "box" whose front line was 50 feet (15 m) from home base, and since 1887 they had been compelled to toe the back line of the box when delivering the ball. The back line was 55 feet 6 inches (16.92 m) away from home. In 1893, 5 feet (1.5 m) was added to the back line, yielding the modern pitching distance of 60 feet 6 inches (18.44 m). In the book The Neyer/James Guide to Pitchers, sports journalist Rob Neyer wrote that the speed with which pitchers like Cy Young, Amos Rusie, and Jouett Meekin threw was the impetus that caused the move.[9]
The 1892 regular season was a success for Young, who led the National League in wins (36), ERA (1.93), and shutouts (9). Just as many contemporary Minor League Baseball leagues operate today, the National League was using a split season format during the 1892 season.[10] The Boston Beaneaters won the first-half title, and the Spiders won the second-half title, with a best-of-nine series determining the league champion. Despite the Spiders' second half run, the Beaneaters swept the series, five games to none. Young pitched three complete games in the series, but lost two decisions. He also threw a complete game shutout, but the game ended in a 0–0 tie.
The Spiders faced the Baltimore Orioles in the Temple Cup, a precursor to the World Series, in 1895. Young won three games in the series and Cleveland won the Cup, four games to one. It was around this time that Young added what he called a "slow ball" to his pitching repertoire to reduce stress on his arm. The pitch today is called a changeup.[3]
In 1896, Young lost a no-hitter with two outs in the ninth inning when Ed Delahanty of the Philadelphia Phillies hit a single.[11] On September 18, 1897, Young pitched the first no-hitter of his career in a game against the Cincinnati Reds. Although Young did not walk a batter, the Spiders committed four errors while on defense. One of the errors had originally been ruled a hit, but the Cleveland third baseman sent a note to the press box after the eighth inning, saying he had made an error, and the ruling was changed. Young later said, that, despite his teammate's gesture, he considered the game to be a one-hitter.[12]
Shift to St. Louis[edit]
Prior to the 1899 season, Frank Robison, the Spiders owner, bought the St. Louis Browns, thus owning two clubs simultaneously. The Browns were renamed the "Perfectos", and restocked with Cleveland talent. Just weeks before the season opener, most of the better Spiders players were transferred to St. Louis, including three future Hall of Famers: Young, Jesse Burkett, and Bobby Wallace.[13] The roster maneuvers failed to create a powerhouse Perfectos team, as St. Louis finished fifth in both 1899 and 1900. Meanwhile, the depleted Spiders lost 134 games, the most in MLB history, before folding. Young spent two years with St. Louis, which is where he found his favorite catcher, Lou Criger. The two men were teammates for a decade.[3][14]
Move to Boston of the American League[edit]
In 1901, the rival American League declared major league status and set about raiding National League rosters. Young left St. Louis and joined the American League's Boston Americans for a $3,500 contract ($107,562 today). Young would remain with the Boston team until 1909. In his first year in the American League, Young was dominant. Pitching to Criger, who had also jumped to Boston, Young led the league in wins, strikeouts, and ERA[b], thus earning the colloquial AL Triple Crown for pitchers.[15] Young won almost 42% of his team's games in 1901, accounting for 33 of his team's 79 wins.[16] In February 1902, before the start of the baseball season, Young served as a pitching coach at Harvard University. The sixth-grade graduate instructing Harvard students delighted Boston newspapers.[3] The following year, Young coached at Mercer University during the spring. The team went on to win the Georgia state championship in 1903, 1904, and 1905.[17][18]
The Boston Americans played the Pittsburgh Pirates in the first modern World Series in 1903. Young, who started Game One against the visiting Pirates, thus threw the first pitch in modern World Series history. The Pirates scored four runs in that first inning, and Young lost the game. Young performed better in subsequent games, winning his next two starts. He also drove in three runs in Game Five. Young finished the series with a 2–1 record and a 1.85 ERA in four appearances, and Boston defeated Pittsburgh, five games to three games.
Main article: Cy Young's perfect game
After one-hitting Boston on May 2, 1904, Philadelphia Athletics pitcher Rube Waddell taunted Young to face him so that he could repeat his performance against Boston's ace. Three days later, Young pitched a perfect game against Waddell and the Athletics.[a2] It was the first perfect game in American League history.[a3][19][20] Waddell was the 27th and last batter, and when he flied out, Young shouted, "How do you like that, you hayseed?"
Waddell had picked an inauspicious time to issue his challenge. Young's perfect game was the centerpiece of a pitching streak. Young set major league records for the most consecutive scoreless innings pitched and the most consecutive innings without allowing a hit; the latter record still stands at 25.1 innings, or 76 hitless batters.[21][22] Even after allowing a hit, Young's scoreless streak reached a then-record 45 shutout innings. Before Young, only two pitchers had thrown perfect games.[a3] This occurred in 1880, when Lee Richmond and John Montgomery Ward pitched perfect games within five days of each other, although under somewhat different rules: the front edge of the pitcher's box was only 45 feet (14 m) from home base (the modern release point is about 10 feet (3.0 m) farther away); walks required eight balls; and pitchers were obliged to throw side-armed. Young's perfect game was the first under the modern rules established in 1893. One year later, on July 4, 1905, Rube Waddell beat Young and the Americans, 4–2, in a 20-inning matchup. Young pitched 13 consecutive scoreless innings before he gave up a pair of unearned runs in the final inning. Young did not walk a batter and was later quoted: "For my part, I think it was the greatest game of ball I ever took part in."[23] In 1907, Young and Waddell faced off in a scoreless 13-inning tie.
In 1908, Young pitched the third no-hitter of his career. Three months past his 41st birthday, Cy Young was the oldest pitcher to record a no-hitter, a record which would stand 82 years until 43-year-old Nolan Ryan surpassed the feat. Only a walk kept Young from his second perfect game. After that runner was caught stealing, no other batter reached base. At this time, Young was the second-oldest player in either league. In another game one month before his no-hitter, he allowed just one single while facing 28 batters.[16] On August 13, 1908, the league celebrated "Cy Young Day." No American League games were played on that day, and a group of All-Stars from the league's other teams gathered in Boston to play against Young and the Red Sox.[24] When the season ended, he posted a 1.26 ERA, which gave him not only the lowest in his career, but also gave him a major league record of being the oldest pitcher with 150+ innings pitched to post a season ERA under 1.50.
Cleveland Naps and retirement[edit]
Young was traded back to Cleveland, the place where he played over half his career, before the 1909 season, to the Cleveland Naps of the American League. The following season, 1910, he won his 500th career game on July 19 against Washington.[25] He split 1911, his final year, between the Naps and the Boston Rustlers. On September 22, 1911, Young shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates, 1–0, for his last career victory.[26] In his final start two weeks later, the last eight batters of Young's career combined to hit a triple, four singles, and three doubles.[27] By the time of his retirement, Young's control had faltered. He had also gained weight.[3] In two of his last three years, he was the oldest player in the league.[15]
Career accomplishments[edit]
Young established numerous pitching records, some of which have stood for over a century. Young compiled 511 wins, which is the most in major league history and 94 ahead of Walter Johnson, second on the list.[28] At the time of Young's retirement, Pud Galvin had the second most career wins with 364. In addition to wins, Young still holds the major league records for most career innings pitched (7,356), most career games started (815), and most complete games (749).[29][30][31] He also retired with 316 losses, the most in MLB history.[32] Young's career record for strikeouts was broken by Johnson in 1921.[33] Young's 76 career shutouts are fourth all-time.[34]
"Line-Up for Yesterday"
Y is for Young
The magnificent Cy;
People batted against him,
But I never knew why.
— Ogden Nash, Sport magazine (January 1949)[35]
Young led his league in wins five times (1892, 1895, and 1901–1903), finishing second twice. His career high was 36 in 1892. He won at least thirty games in a season five times. He had fifteen seasons with twenty or more wins, two more than the runners-up, Christy Mathewson and Warren Spahn. Young won two ERA titles during his career, in 1892 (1.93) and in 1901 (1.62), and was three times the runner-up. Young's earned run average was below 2.00 six times, but this was not uncommon during the dead-ball era. Although Young threw over 400 innings in each of his first four full seasons, he did not lead his league until 1902. He had 40 or more complete games nine times. Young also led his league in strikeouts twice (with 140 in 1896, and 158 in 1901), and in shutouts seven times.[15] Young led his league in fewest walks per nine innings fourteen times and finished second one season. Only twice in his 22-year career did Young finish lower than 5th in the category. Although the WHIP ratio was not calculated until well after Young's death, Young was the retroactive league leader in this category seven times and was second or third another seven times.[15] Young is tied with Roger Clemens for the most career wins by a Boston Red Sox pitcher. They each won 192 games while with the franchise.[36] In addition, Young pitched three no-hitters, including the third perfect game in baseball history, first in baseball's "modern era".
Young also was an above average hitting pitcher in his career. He posted a .210 batting average (623-for-2960) with 325 runs, 18 home runs, 290 RBI and drew 81 bases on balls. From 1891 through 1905, he drove in 10 or more runs for 15 straight seasons, with a high of 28 RBI in 1896.[15]
Pitching style[edit]
Particularly after his fastball slowed, Young relied upon his control. Young was once quoted as saying, "Some may have thought it was essential to know how to curve a ball before anything else. Experience, to my mind, teaches to the contrary. Any young player who has good control will become a successful curve pitcher long before the pitcher who is endeavoring to master both curves and control at the same time. The curve is merely an accessory to control."[8] In addition to his exceptional control, Young was also a workhorse who avoided injury. For nineteen consecutive years, from 1891 through 1909, Young was in his league's top ten for innings pitched; in fourteen of the seasons, he was in the top five. Not until 1900, a decade into his career, did Young pitch two consecutive incomplete games.[12] By habit, Young restricted his practice throws in spring training. "I figured the old arm had just so many throws in it", said Young, "and there wasn't any use wasting them." Young once described his approach before a game:
I never warmed up ten, fifteen minutes before a game like most pitchers do. I'd loosen up, three, four minutes. Five at the outside. And I never went to the bullpen. Oh, I'd relieve all right, plenty of times, but I went right from the bench to the box, and I'd take a few warm-up pitches and be ready. Then I had good control. I aimed to make the batter hit the ball, and I threw as few pitches as possible. That's why I was able to work every other day.[8]
Later life[edit]
Beginning in 1912, Young lived and worked on his farm. In 1913, he served as manager of the Cleveland Green Sox of the Federal League, which was at the time an outlaw league. However, he never worked in baseball after that.
Young's wife, Roba,[37] whom he had known since childhood, died in 1933.[1][3] After she died, Young tried several jobs, and eventually moved in with friends John and Ruth Benedum and did odd jobs for them. Young took part in many baseball events after his retirement.[3] In 1937, 26 years after he retired from baseball, Young was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. He was among the first to donate mementos to the Hall.
By 1940, Young's only source of income was stock dividends of $300 per year ($5,475 today).[1][38] On November 4, 1955, Young died on the Benedums' farm at the age of 88.[1] He was buried in Peoli, Ohio.[39]
Legacy[edit]
Young's plaque at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum
Young's career is seen as a bridge from baseball's earliest days to its modern era; he pitched against stars such as Cap Anson, already an established player when the National League was first formed in 1876, as well as against Eddie Collins, who played until 1930. When Young's career began, pitchers delivered the baseball underhand and fouls were not counted as strikes. The pitcher's mound was not moved back to its present position of 60 feet 6 inches (18.44 m) until Young's fourth season; he did not wear a glove until his sixth season.[3]
Young was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1937. In 1956, about one year after Young's death, the Cy Young Award was created to honor the best pitcher in Major League Baseball for each season. The first award was given to Brooklyn's Don Newcombe. Originally, it was a single award covering the whole of baseball. The honor was divided into two Cy Young Awards in 1967, one for the National League and one for the American League.
On September 23, 1993, a statue dedicated to him was unveiled by Northeastern University on the site of the Red Sox's original stadium, the Huntington Avenue Grounds. It was there that Young had pitched the first game of the 1903 World Series, as well as the first perfect game in the modern era of baseball. A home plate-shaped plaque next to the statue reads:
On October 1, 1903 the first modern World Series between the American League champion Boston Pilgrims (later known as the Red Sox) and the National League champion Pittsburgh Pirates was played on this site. General admission tickets were fifty cents. The Pilgrims, led by twenty-eight game winner Cy Young, trailed the series three games to one but then swept four consecutive victories to win the championship five games to three.[40]
In 1999, 88 years after his final major league appearance and 44 years after his death, editors at The Sporting News ranked Young 14th on their list of "Baseball's 100 Greatest Players".[41] That same year, baseball fans named him to the Major League Baseball All-Century Team.

a.^ [a2][a3] Although the phrase "perfect game" appeared in record books as early as 1922, and was a common expression years before that, Major League Baseball did not formalize the definition of a "perfect game" until 1991, long after Young's death. Nonetheless, Young's 1955 obituary also used the phrase.
"An official perfect game occurs when a pitcher (or pitchers) retires each batter on the opposing team during the entire course of a game, which consists of at least nine innings. In a perfect game, no batter reaches any base during the course of the game."[42]

So can anyone tell me how to get this headphone when it doesn't ship to my country, Indonesia? And please explain in details since I am not very smart.
Thank you for your reply. I understand that, I'm wondering if there is any intermediary company/business that could buy this and send it to me?
Can you buy them on ebay?
Yes, I can. But it has been marked up quite significantly to $350. I still need to pay import tax to my Customs on top of that too, which is 25%. Additionally, there is so-called "import charges" if I try to buy from the US in the amount of $158.72 (if the price is $350).
Maybe try a and post here ever few days that you would like to buy a resale pair. a lot of people bought these and will want to sell them.

THANOS Returns for a Second Run of an Exclusive 6" Glow-in-the-Dark Funko Pop!
Back in 2015, Entertainment Earth (an affiliate of The Rock Father™) partnered with Funko for an exclusive glow-in-the-dark Pop! Vinyl Bobblehead of Thanos, based on his appearance in Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy. A double-sized 6" figure, this version of the "Mad Titan" sold out quickly, but no one could've predicted just how popular Thanos would be three years later. Thanks to his finger-snapping villainy in Avengers: Infinity War, Funko and Entertainment Earth are doing a second run of the popular figure - the only 6" Funko Thanos that can currently be purchased new (an Avengers version sold as a Hot Topic exclusive is now only found on the secondary market). Pre-orders are open now with delivery expected in September.
From Entertainment Earth: Thanos, the mad and mysterious supervillain in the blockbuster movie Guardians of the Galaxy, is here in awesome Pop! Vinyl style! This Entertainment Earth Exclusive Guardians of the Galaxy Glow-in-the-Dark Thanos 6-Inch Pop! Vinyl Bobble Head Figure makes a terrific gift for young Marvel fans and adult collectors alike. Why, he's simply glowing with power! Once you see this remarkable figure, you'll want all the rest in the line of Guardians of the Galaxy Pop! Vinyl figures from Funko! Other figures sold separately. Ages 3 and up.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, Or Is It?
Do you love Christmas? Take a look at some THS students' opinions on whether Christmas is a good or bad time of the year and what it means to them!
Chloe Fleming, Editor in Chief
As Christmas break approaches at THS we are all faced with holiday preparations. We have to clean, go Christmas shopping, make baked goods, and do whatever else we like to do during the holidays. Not only are there preparations to be done but there is also the entire Christmas season to worry about. There is Christmas music to be played and movies to be watched. But how do THS students feel about all of it? Do they like it, as most people do, or do they find it exhausting?
The verdict is split between the freshman and the sophomores. Freshmen, Lucas Yang and Samantha Stathas are strong advocates for this jolly time of the year. Sophomores Natalie Smith and James Wesley are strongly opposed to holiday cheer.
Christmas time is seen as a season of joy and unity. Christmas movies portray the joy of Christmas and show that dreams really do come true.
"[The Christmas season] makes me feel jolly and all warm inside." Yang says, "You get the feeling that you're loved, everyone is happy, and you think about other people and what they like."
While Christmas evokes these warm feelings for some, others feel differently. They feel that Christmas is a time of fighting and disagreement and full of unnecessary work.
"I hate Christmas." Smith says, "Christmas music is all the same and Christmas in my family is kind of hard because my family doesn't get along very well."
For many students, Christmas is seen as a separate season than Winter. Those students that don't enjoy the Christmas season have expressed that this sentiment does not extend to Winter as well.
"I love winter I just hate Christmas," Smith says.
For others, it depends on the weather of the winter that year. For some, the cold weather is what makes them not like it.
"It really depends on how winter is." Wesley says, "If it's excessively cold the whole time, then I'll start to dislike winter, but this winter has not been extremely cold, so it's pretty cool."
The students that dislike Christmas can also agree that Christmas music is one of the worst parts of the season.
"I hate Christmas music." Smith says, "It's all the same, it's cheerful and really annoying."
The Christmas enthusiasts among us can agree that family is one of the best parts of Christmas.
"Spending time with my family on Christmas Eve," Stathas says, "and getting to enjoy the moments and memories that we make [are the best parts of Christmas]."
For others, seeing others spend time with one another brings joy.
"I like how you get to get together with people and get to interact with everyone." Yang says, "The unique interactions people have with each other are the things I like."
For our sophomores, Christmas is not the most wonderful time of the year, but for our freshmen it is. What do you think? Is Christmas the most wonderful time of the year?

At 1230 Mountain time, the airplane landed gear-up at the end of a Part 135 tour flight. The pilot and five passengers were not injured. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the undercarriage/fuselage after sliding 1300 feet down the runway. Visual conditions prevailed.
The pilot selected 10 degrees of flaps, and then banked the airplane to show a point of interest to passengers. He later wrote, "This action so close to the runway distracted me, and I failed to lower the gear."

The Kraken and Dark Sea, Chapter 84.
Posted on 3 Days Ago by jccarlton
Another victim of the spider is found.
Chatsrey.
"Special Agent Stonecracker, the body is over here, in this abandoned car."
Tod followed the sergeant, glad that he had brought rubber boots. There was little he could do about the stench. A Chatsrey police photographer was taking pictures of the body when they arrived. The empty lot had collected the typical pile of trash and car hulks. The body had been dropped through the car roof, and was tangled in the rotten seats, dripping goo. Tod looked at the bound up body and said, "Any clue as to who he was?"
"Gerad Handers, otherwise known as the Ironfist. He was an adjuster for the Lions."
"Another member of the Horse Pistol Club as well, probably."
"Probably. The lady likes to play rough."
"According to what we have, playing rough helps the transformation trip the first few times. So the lady gets a rush and the transformation, followed by dinner. How was the body found?"
"Some kids were playing in the lot, smelled something really bad, and spotted dried goo. They opened the trunk and called a cop."
Izzie Dantas showed up and said, "You found him."
"Did you know about this?" Stonecracker asked.
"There were rumors going around that Ironfist was missing, but you know how that goes. I was tipped that a lady was in town early and met with another lady, so I was expecting a body."
"Do you have any pictures?"
"No. we spotted them in a café and cameras would have given us away, so we didn't bring one."
"Was there anything special about the ladies?"
"They were at a café during lunch and didn't order anything other than tea."
"Both of them?"
"Do you know who the second lady is?"
"A well known lady philanthropist, Mora Chambers. Seemingly above reproach at all levels. She was also in Ironton on a project when certain men were meals. I've been going through the Press Service morgue and it was rather interesting. The lady doesn't have a family or a lot of friends, most of her entertaining is to aid her projects and seemingly the incidents that happen where she is are just coincidences. I will have the entire thing sent to your office."
"Unless she is caught in the act, getting her is going to be tricky, especially now. This is going to have to be kept quiet or it could blow up in our faces."
"Vinnie and I were aware of that. We were rather nervous with the ladies there in that café, because if they made us, we could be dinner at some point. Vinnie says that it has happened before."
Vivia was watching Wyrran do some repair work when she heard a car drive up. Tiny opened the door, and Mel Allred, a younger version of Mel and another lady go out. Vivia yelled and Mel waved and walked over. The two ladies were dressed in a simple Imperial style and one had collar of all things. Mel smiled as they walked up and said, Vivia, this is my daughter Lidia and Fillia Fallingwater, who insists on remaining a slave."
Vivia looked at Fillia and said, "Why do you do that Fillia?"
Fillia smiled and said, "Because it drives Immigration crazy and since they made trouble for me son and Lidia's, I am forcing the case. It is working its way through the courts. So far I have been winning. I hope that it get resolved before my son's wedding to the Imperial princess happens and makes the thing rather ridiculous."
"That sounds rather lunatic. So what brings you ladies to me today?"
"We wanted to talk to you about your family and how they arrived here. I am representing the high family and the Silverin would like to know your history and how many are here in the Republic in addition to the exiles and their descendants."
"I think you can guess how we arrived."
"Through the portal here. It probably connected to the old estate, something we have not found as yet."
"The lands in the north on the Silverin estate were struck by the Blight repeatedly. I will have my father come down and I think that Lord Umevan has ensured that the portal works, so we can possibly arrange for some scamps to come down and do some digging around here for vaults and such."
"Vaults like the ones on Castle Hill. Why would they be here?"
"Because the Folly would be obvious and this would be a bolthole to protect the family. Unfortunately Ishendell was scourged and the dark was able to get their hands on the alternate portal control panel, so the family was trapped, some retreated to the Folly and the rest indentured ourselves to the Umevan, a relationship that worked well for both families until the dark brought them down as well."
"The Umevan are very wealthy here, because they make the things that are needed for electricity."
"Yes. The family here are friends as well."
"I have some wonderful tea brewed and in the icebox. I see that Tiny has distracted Wyrran, so why don't we pretend as if we don't see them chatting while Wyrran is supposed to be doing what he is doing."
Wyrran looked at the ladies as they went inside, turned to Tiny and said, "Good, she took them inside."
"Is she a slavedriver type?"
"Not at all, but if they are inside, we don't have to worry about somebody else seeing us talking while they are outside and she's supposedly watching me."
"Do you think that you are being watched?"
Wyrran pointed at the row of rather large office buildings that overlooked the house. "There are a lot of windows up there, somebody could rent an office and keep an eye on the lady, and the portal."
"Good point. How is it going with the lady?"
"I haven't moved in, though she wants me to. I also haven't told her about my past."
"You don't really have to."
"No, but the time may come soon that I have to be someplace doing something and I don't want her involved."
"If they pick up on you, she may be involved any way."
"That frightens me more than a bit. In any case, they haven't tried to look into the portal, which is stupid, because Jorge has already had his hands on it and didn't even try to hide that it was him. They should know better than to trust a portal that he has even been close to, let alone touched."
Tiny laughed. "I think that I will go and get gas and caffee and let you get back to your work."
"The thing is that I'm starting to like this."
"It's not a bad place to be."
Bill's grandfather was waiting with a grinning Altak as Bill and Moonshine emerged from the airport terminal. "I understand that you were horsing around."
"Wait a hundredth and I will explain."
Another half elf and fae girl emerged, towing luggage and Bill said, "This is my fellow prisoner and troublemaker, Sudyral Shahana, along with Galaxa."
"I'm surprised they came back."
My father says to do the unexpected," Sudyral said. "They probably expect us to to stay in the Timberlands, well guarded by my father. Since they want me up there so that they can do certain things, I'm better off here."
"Well, you all get in the car and you can tell me about your horsing around."

Why need a concept for creation? Why hold on to a seemingly exceedingly extinct form of a bigger backbone to hang your art from when a lot of what is out there these days tends to be aimed at the incidental and momentary, almost short-term way of producing content? A click here and there is what we all are after, right? I think not.
I guess the simple answer is: 「Because some of us can't help it」. Being influenced by so many masterpieces that heavily rely on the same principles of conceptual art we also love to see the world in project form. The terminology is different. It's not just a song you're putting out, it's the amalgamation of setting pen to paper till the last pieces of code for a website. So you can give something people can dig into. Something that lasts.
As myself I tend to create in batches. When asked I jokingly call it 「The Hermit Way」. Seclusion and dedication, accumulative efforts and most of all a disconnect from the outside seems to be the most fruitful. These batches vary in time. The last one took a year. When I rolled out of the studio again I had 24 songs divided into six chapters. MOSAIK was born.
The first chapter 「MIRÍADE」 is my little gift to you. Grab it from Bandcamp for any price you seem fit, or 5 dollars at Cd Baby. The rest of the music will follow suit.
When I started in 2015 I had meant to write one EP and hop on a plain afterwards. Luckily that plane is still waiting.
I hope you enjoy what has been such a pleasure to work on. The baseline is set. The pieces seem to fit. I'm looking forward to what this new endeavour will bring and in what ways I can be a part of that. For now I'll let her stand on her own feet for a while.

April Moeara helped to put the team together and says it's a big deal for the Cook Islands.
"We're very proud. It means that we're getting noticed as a small nation in the sport and that we're moving forward in the game itself."
Moeara says the team is made up of representatives from all of the islands in the Cooks.
"It's a big statement for us because we haven't really been looked at over the years."
Their first game will be against Australia on November 16 in Sydney.

Although science has not yet discovered exactly what causes AD/HD or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (the updated name for ADD*) it is recognized as a "neurobiologically-based developmental disability" that involves a chemical imbalance or a deficiency in certain neurotransmitters.
While FasterEFT does not claim to heal AD/HD since it is not an illness, but a coping system created from stressed programming, it can empower an individual with the condition to cope significantly better with the symptoms and the knock-on effects.
From improving the ability to focus on a project, to being able to control shaking and other physical hyperactivity in a job interview, to feeling more calm and lowering stress, the FasterEFT process can help to increase the quality of life for those who are living with the vast range of AD/HD symptoms.
How Does FasterEFT Work with AD/HD?
When a person with AD/HD is experiencing symptoms, using the FasterEFT technique in the moment can help to lower the intensity of the symptoms and even relieve them completely.
For example, a 23 year old man with AD/HD had never been able to sit through a job interview without physically shaking and being unable to focus enough to answer questions coherently.
Having learned to use the FasterEFT technique on himself, and having done no previous work with the process, he was able to use the technique just before he went into the job interview, and had a very different experience than he'd ever had before.
He felt calmer, was able to focus and answer the questions more directly, and experienced no physical shaking at all. When you start to feel a symptom (or anything else that bothers you) use the technique in the moment – you can use Mental Tapping if you are in public or are unable to tap physically for any other reason.
Just like everyone else, those with AD/HD have problems that are caused by the records of past experiences.
Using the FasterEFT process to address those memories will help with current problems, including dealing with their AD/HD symptoms more effectively.
Start by picking the problem that bothers you most right now.
Then, think back to when you remember noticing it for the first time – it doesn't matter whether that was when you were 5 years old, or yesterday!
Then, use the FasterEFT Technique to address that memory and flip it.
Do the same with each issue that bothers you.
You can address any problem in this way – from physical ailments to emotional hurts and worries, to symptoms of AD/HD.
Regardless of what your problem is, and regardless of how hopeless it may appear right now, there is always a way to improve your experience of it using FasterEFT.
In addition to this, since FasterEFT works with the brain and body, it makes changes to the structure and chemical state of the brain as you use it.
Try using it right now to test it – pick a small problem, issue or symptom, and use the technique as described in The FasterEFT Technique – Step-by-Step and notice the differences.
Then, move on to free yourself from the other problems, issues and symptoms you're experiencing.

Q: Simple hashing function that is HTML id-friendly and case sensitive I get some strings from an external source, and I display them in spans on my page.
I need a way to get back to those strings using document.getElementById() or jQuery's $("#XXXX"), so along with each string I get some sort of an identifier, I use that identifier as the ID of the span.
The problem is that the identifier I get could contain chars like + for example. Which is not allowed as a value for the id attribute http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_standard_id.asp
Additionally, these identifiers are case-sensitive. So I thought of using a hashing function like SHA or MD5, to hash the identifiers I get, then use them as ids for my spans, and I can apply the hashing function again to find my element.
This seems complicated for such a simple functionality. Is there a better way to do this? or maybe a very simple hashing function that would guarantee id-friendly chars and case-sensitivity? (HTML's id is not case-sensitive, that's another reason to consider hashing functions)

A: Can you ditch the identifier you get and just implement something simple like this:
var counter = 0;
function uniqueId(){
    return "Id" + ++counter;
}

A: You could just increment the id's with a number and some sort of string to begin the ID.
The span id's would be "a1", "a2" etc.

A: I'm guessing that the problem is that you're thinking later you'll be getting the same strings and will want to transform them in the same way, and then use these to find the original corresponding elements?
If so, you'll just need to sanitize your strings carefully. A series of regular expressions could help you map from invalid to valid characters, and make the capitals unique. For instance, you could transform "A" into "-a-", and "+" into "-plus-".
A carefully chosen scheme should guarantee that the chances of a collision (i.e. someone giving you a string that looks like an escaped version of another string) should be very small, and in any case, detectable immediately.

Q: Example of using `thebibliography` in the `CurVe` document class I'm using the CurVe document class for C.V.s . I'd like an example of using thebibliography environment in this document class as I'm having trouble figuring it out from just the documentation. I want to have citations within my C.V., by the way, if this is possible.
Here is my minimal (non)working example:
fav_book.tex:
\begin{rubric}{My Favourite Book}

 This is my favourite book~\cite{fav}
\end{rubric}

biblography.tex:
\begin{rubric}{}
\begin{thebibliography}{}

 \bibitem{fav} Thor, A.U., 2017. \textit{Best book ever}. 1st ed. London: Best Publishers.

\end{thebibliography}
\end{rubric}

CV.tex:
\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{curve}
\begin{document}
\makerubric{fav_book}
\makerubric{bibliography}

\end{document}

This is the relevant part of the documentation:

If you find this process too cumbersome, however, you can use the standard
  LATEX bibliography mechanisms with CurVe: the thebibliography environment is
  supported along with its \bibitem companion. The behavior is actually that of
  a rubric environment with its \entry* companion (with an empty prefix however).
  Hence, the layout of the bibliography remains consistent with the rest
  of the cv. This fact has two implications however: firstly, the argument to the
  thebibliography environment is unused in CurVe (but remains for compatibility
  with the rest of LATEX) because CurVe itself formats the keys and contents properly
  aligned. Secondly, the bibliographic environment must reside in its own file,
  as any other rubric. Don't forget that if you happen to write the environment
  manually.

A: I've worked it out: my mistake was to assume that the bibliography needed to be in a rubric like the others. Actually, bibliography.tex should look like this:
\begin{thebibliography}{}

 \bibitem{fav} Thor, A.U., 2017. \textit{Best book ever}. 1st ed. London: Best Publishers.

\end{thebibliography}

This should work together with the rest of the files in the example given in my question.


Drizzle ½ tablespoon lemon juice over each swordfish steak and let stand for 1 minute. Rub both sides of the swordfish steaks with olive oil; salt and pepper the swordfish to taste.
In a small bowl combine butter, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, salt, and basil.
Grill the swordfish on high until opaque, about 3½ to 4½ minutes per side.
Top each steak with 1 tablespoon of the lemon-basil butter. Allow the swordfish to rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.


Already a few years ago I was looking to a documentary (Discovery) about the battle between Korea and Japan. The Turtle Ship had the leading role and at the end I know that I had to build this ship. I have made searches on the internet and could only find one kit from Young Modeler (South-Korea). There is also a 1/100 scale kit, see the nice topic about this ship from Mike Szwarc (MSW) – it's because of this topic I could not let the box closed anymore .
"The Turtle ship, also known as Geobukseon(거북선), was a type of large warship belonging to the Panokseon class in Korea that was used intermittently by the Royal Korean Navy during the Joseon Dynasty from the early 15th century up until the 19th century.
The first references to older, first generation turtle ships, known as Gwiseon (귀선; 龜船), come from 1413 and 1415 records in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, which mention a mock battle between a gwiseon and a Japanese warship.
However, these early turtle ships soon fell out of use as Korea's naval preparedness decreased during a long period of relative peace.
and incendiary weapons. The deck was covered with iron spikes to discourage enemy men from attempting to board the hip. Claims that it was iron-plated remain controversial."
A replica is shown in the War Memorial in Seoul.
Controversial or not, I will build her covered with the iron spikes.
This looks a very interesting kit, I haven't seen anything like this before.
The box contents looks to be of a decent quality and plenty of fittings, this is a build that I will need to keep my eye on.
All the action is below decks indeed. It must have been very crowded with about 60-80 oarsmen and 60 marines. On each side you can find at least 10 cannons and another cannon could be placed in the dragonshead when is wasn't used for the sulfurgas.
I have started with the pedestal frame. I used some oil, the reason why It's still a bit shiny.
The hull is not so complicated, very flat but it's according to the original ship.
Very interesting take on the planking. Kind of a clinker build. Will really make planking easy. The whole kit should go together really fast and make for a nice display.
It's a clinker build indeed and frames are already prepared for it. This kind of planking was most common for Korean ships in that period. So far I'm satisfied with the kit, nice manual, nice wood, etc.
it seems you always have this knack of choosing the most esoteric ships to build. I would have never found this ship. This is a new one on me. Just like your other builds, I am sure that you will do it justice with your talent.
I've seen that buildlog too and that log was the reason to start with this one.
It was already stored in my closet for more than a year.
Thanks, I hope for a nice and clean build.
Carl, thank you, there are not so many ships from te East. I've already build a Chinese one, but never seen a Japanese.
Those pins were to prevent Japanese mariners to enter the ship. And I am pretty sure they didn't .
Seven planks on each side were enough to close the hull, no difficult bending.
It's not quit the same .
This looks like a fun build to follow. It would be nice if you could find a Japanese ship of the same era.
What happened to the rest of this build log????


Earlier this week, I posted a brief note about the PCUSA's decision to exclude the hymn "In Christ Alone" from their new hymnal. The authors of the hymn refused to give permission to exclude a reference to the wrath of God, so the editorial committee decided to exclude the hymn.
Sustained theological debate occurred after the conclusion of the committee's three-and-a-half years of quarterly meetings in January 2012. We had voted for a song from the contemporary Christian canon, Keith Getty and Stuart Townend's "In Christ Alone." The text agreed upon was one we had found by studying materials in other recently published hymnals. Its second stanza contained the lines, "Till on that cross as Jesus died / the love of God was magnified." In the process of clearing copyrights for the hymnal we discovered that this version of the text would not be approved by the authors, as it was considered too great a departure from their original words: "as Jesus died / the wrath of God was satisfied." We were faced, then, with a choice: to include the hymn with the authors' original language or to remove it from our list.
Because we were no longer meeting as a committee, our discussions had to occur through e-mail; this may explain why the "In Christ Alone" example stands out in my mind—the final arguments for and against its inclusion are preserved in writing. People making a case to retain the text with the authors' original lines spoke of the fact that the words expressed one view of God's saving work in Christ that has been prevalent in Christian history: the view of Anselm and Calvin, among others, that God's honor was violated by human sin and that God's justice could only be satisfied by the atoning death of a sinless victim. While this might not be our personal view, it was argued, it is nonetheless a view held by some members of our family of faith; the hymnal is not a vehicle for one group's perspective but rather a collection for use by a diverse body.
Arguments on the other side pointed out that a hymnal does not simply collect diverse views, but also selects to emphasize some over others as part of its mission to form the faith of coming generations; it would do a disservice to this educational mission, the argument ran, to perpetuate by way of a new (second) text the view that the cross is primarily about God's need to assuage God's anger. The final vote was six in favor of inclusion and nine against, giving the requisite two-thirds majority (which we required of all our decisions) to the no votes. The song has been removed from our contents list, with deep regret over losing its otherwise poignant and powerful witness.
I'm kind of reading between the lines here, but why would anyone question anything out of the ordinary coming from the PCUSA? Their departure from orthodox Christianity and scriptural authority is well known. This is the position those who hold to scripture and biblical authority are in today; the minority looking into the majority's maw, thinking they are looking from without. It is scripture and God who are dissected endlessly in a postmodern fashion, not the arbitrary and trend driven naval gazing that passes for faithfulness and integrity to God and his word.
This statement, like the PCUSA, is so full of errors in itself it's amazing, but it picture perfectly shows the hubris, the gall, the incredibly disgusting diminution of God and his written word so prevalent nowadays. I have no doubt statements like this will be more defended than God's love in reaching down in human form to save us from a rightful punishment for crimes we committed.
So I was right; the issue was not the wrath of God per se but the line as a whole. And the issue was whether God's wrath was satisfied by Christ's death on the cross and that this is what is meant by atonement.
I would be grateful if someone could show where the line as it appears in the hymn fairly reflects a NT text. At the moment the criticism of PCUSA is all at the level of bluster.
Here are a few, Tim.
As much as I think that penal substitution is the correct doctrine, its important to note (I think) that we shouldn't let doctrine get in the way of salvation. The thief on the Cross knew nothing of penal substitution theory & yet Jesus forgave his sins & that very day the thief was in heaven. I think the attempt to change the line was wrongheaded, but I rather doubt even a single person will go to Hell for that one sentence.
I think the 'bluster' as you call it comes from the fact that people (at least myself) question if this isn't a step toward adopting a more New Age-oriented theology. Based on what Mary wrote above, it seems like that's, in fact, the direction this committee wants to go.
The issue is not simply a matter of penal substitutionary atonement. NT Wright is an advocate od PSA and of the use of the word propitiation in Rom 3 and 1 Jn but objects to the line in the hymn.
In none of the references you give is the notion of the wrath of God being assuaged by the sacrifice of Christ actually spelt out, although it may well be a good way of synthesising the material.
Making the notion something of a litmus test of theological correctness is something I would wish to avoid.
On the subject of New-Age theology, I am in UK and thought that New-Age stuff was rather old-fashioned, but not the less mistaken for that. Is it a real issue in America? What is meant by it? Has it evolved significantly in the last 30 years? And what are the signs that is it significant in PCUSA? Might PCUSA not just be rather soggy liberal? Is Mary a New-Ager herself?
Tim, Rom 3:25-28 Penal Substitutionary Atonement is represented by God's faith in the the blood of Christ as a propitiation. The Triune God has exercised patient faith in securing our salvation. There is nothing we can make a boast about. It is performed in such a way that God is glorified. This declaration follows the fact that every man is a liar and has brought upon himself the severest of anger from God Rom 3:9-20 This anger is propitiated (an atonement, drained blood of God's own Son, equal to the offense) The offering satisfies the wrath of God.
Wow, that explanation really doesn't put the PCUSA is any better light whatsoever! Still ridiculous and erroneous.
If your Bible doesn't have the word "propitiation" in Romans 3 and 1 John 2 and 4, then you really need to discard that translation immediately. Weak, liberal Bible translations have corrupted our views in so many ways.
Interestingly, the NT scholar with the highest reputation in UK is a fervent advocate of the use of the word 'propitiation' but has argued against the line as given by Townend. In fact I suspect the move to the line as preferred by PCUSA goes back to him.
According to most conservative Christians, most people end up in Hell. Further, punishment is being continually visited on believer and unbeliever alike every day in this world in the form of natural disasters and disease, we are told.
Somehow, Adam's transgression had more power and was more efficacious in terms of its effects than Christ's sacrificial death (apparently very limited in its scope).
If anything, the song's theology appears to be too liberal.
I'm curious about the other hymnals mentioned in the explanation that have the alternate wording. Did they get proper permission? If so, why were they given permission to change the original words and not the PCUSA?
By the way, has anyone noticed that The Layman Online has a link to Denny Berk's whole article. Oh, and this female ordained minister, Carmen Fowler LaBerge, who writes articles for The Layman Online, agrees with Denny Berk. Folks, don't assume a whole denomination thinks the same way. I know some Southern Baptist women who are trying to push for women to be ordained in our denomination. I doubt it will happen, but you never know.

Shanghai, China, March 28, 2017 – ReneSola Ltd ("ReneSola" or the "Company") (www.renesola.com) (NYSE: SOL), a leading fully-integrated solar project developer and provider of energy efficient technology products, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2016.
· Total borrowings reduced by $74.7 million to $624.3 million compared to Q3 2016.
· LED sales of $30.4 million represented over 3% of total revenue in 2016.
Li continued, "We strived to effectively manage our working capital and improve balance sheet, which led to promising results, such as the improvement in days of account receivables and inventory turnover in the fourth quarter. We also reduced our total borrowing by $75 million and expect to pay down more debt in the quarters ahead. As we look to 2017, we remain positive on our downstream strategy and are excited about the business opportunities ahead of us."
Revenue of $232.1 million was up 24.1% q/q but down 21.7% y/y and was within the guidance of $220 million to $240 million. The decline in the year-over-year revenue reflected lower ASP and lower shipments to external customers.
Gross profit of $5.0 million was down 73.7% q/q and 89.5% y/y. Gross margin declined to 2.1% from 10.1% in Q3 2016 and from 16.0% in Q4 2015. The sequential margin decline was primarily due to lower wafer and module ASPs. Gross margin in Q4 2016 was below the guidance of high-single digits.
Operating expenses were $26.8 million, representing 11.5% of revenue, down from $30.7 million in Q3 2016 and $30.5 million in Q4 2015. Sales and marketing expenses were $7.3 million, down from $11.5 million in Q3 2016 as we reversed certain warranty expense to reflect the declining module ASP. During the quarter, we made impairment of long-lived assets of $4.6 million associated with our monocrystalline wafer equipment.
Operating loss was $21.8 million, compared to operating loss of $11.9 million in Q3 2016 and operating income of $16.9 million in Q4 2015.
Non-operating expenses of $0.2 million include net interest expense of $7.1 million, partially offset by gain on derivative of $2.0 million and foreign exchange gains of $4.9 million.
Net loss was $25.5 million, compared to net loss of $20.5 million in Q3 2016 and net income of $6.7 million in the prior-year period. Loss per ADS was $1.261.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $133.2 million as of December 31, 2016, compared to $139.4 million at the end of Q3 2016. Total borrowings were $624.3 million, decreasing by $74.7 million from $699.0 million as of September 30, 2016. The Company utilized reduced working capital needs to pay down short-term debt, thus continuing to fulfill its long-term strategy of reducing debt.
1 The Company executed a ratio change for its American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") program effective on February 10, 2017. As a result, the number of the Company's shares represented by each ADS was changed from two (2) shares to ten (10) shares.
Revenue of $929.8 million was down 27.5% y/y.
Gross profit of $109.5 million was down 41.7% y/y. Gross margin decreased to 11.8% from 14.7% in 2015.
Operating expenses were $124.6 million, or 13.4% of revenue, compared to $158.6 million in 2015.
Operating loss was $15.1 million, compared to operating income of $29.3 million in 2015.
Non-operating expenses of $17.3 million include net interest expense of $31.6 million, partially offset by foreign exchange gain of $8.9 million, gain on derivative of $4.6 million and change in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities of $0.6 million in 2016.
Net loss was $34.7 million, which compares to net loss of $5.1 million in 2015. Net loss per ADS was $1.722.
The Company focused on developing, operating and selling high-quality solar power projects. Our business activities are centered on building a pipeline of distributed generation and utility-scale projects in attractive locations worldwide. In the fourth quarter, the Company continued to monetize its existing pipelines as part of its development cycle.
The Company recognized revenue from six utility-scale projects in the United Kingdom sold in the fourth quarter. These projects had approximately 26.0 MW of generating capacity. Additionally, the Company sold rooftop projects of 2.0 MW in China's domestic distributed generation market in the quarter.
As of March 20, 2017, the Company had a pipeline of over 1 GW of projects in various stages, of which 707 MW were projects that are "shovel-ready". The shovel-ready projects include (i) projects that are overseas and that ReneSola has the legal right to develop based on definitive agreements, and (ii) projects in China that have been filed with National Development and Reform Commission. The Company identified a number of opportunities in China's domestic distributed generation market, and now has 391.9 MW of such projects in the shovel-ready stage in its pipeline. The Company continues to focus on developed markets which are expected to have stable returns and healthy cash flow.
2 The Company executed a ratio change for its American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") program effective on February 10, 2017. As a result, the number of the Company's shares represented by each ADS was changed from two (2) shares to ten (10) shares.
As the Company announced earlier in March, it currently has over 330 MW project pipelines under construction and plans to construct over 550 MW of projects in 2017. During the construction phase, the projects will be financed by construction loans, as well as installment payments from buyers.
During the fourth quarter, total external module shipments were 330.7 MW, up 72.9% from Q3 2016 and down 11.4% from Q4 2015. Total wafer shipments were 305.9 MW, up 5.3% from Q3 2016 and up 13.2% from Q4 2015. The sequential uptick in both module and wafer shipments reflected higher demand in the domestic market.
LED revenue of $9.3 million was up 30.8% from $7.1 million in Q3 2016. Gross margin was 25.6%. The increase in revenue reflected growth from newly established relationships with sales agents in certain regions.
ReneSola remains optimistic about the growth prospects for its LED business. The market for energy efficient products is large and growing rapidly. LED lighting is one of the most effective products for reducing electricity consumption. The Company believes it can leverage its brand name and global distribution footprint to build an attractive, high margin business. The Company expects the LED business to grow into a meaningful financial contributor in the years ahead.
The Company's subsidiary in the United Kingdom (UK), ReneSola UK Ltd., has received a decision and subsequently a post-clearance duty demand note from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) of the UK Government, which requires ReneSola to pay retrospective anti-dumping duty (ADD), countervailing duty (CVD) and value added tax of approximately £1.2 million (US$1.7 million) in total associated with certain imports of solar panels from ReneSola Singapore PTE and Enfield Solar Energy Ltd India between December 2013 and February 2014. UK Customs disagreed with the Company's declared country of origin of these products. The Company is contesting the determination and has requested a review before HMRC. The final review decision of HMRC is expected to be announced in April or May 2017. The Company expects to appeal any adverse decision to the competent customs tribunal in the UK.
3 With the start of operation, the projects will be transferred into a joint venture, in which ReneSola is expected to hold 50% of equity interest of the 116MW of projects.
The Company's subsidiary in Germany, ReneSola Deutschland GmbH, has received a post-clearance duty demand note from Dutch Customs, which requires ReneSola Deutschland GmbH to pay retrospective ADD and CVD of approximately €11.8 million (US$13.1 million) in total associated with certain imports of solar panels from its various Indian OEM suppliers in late 2013 and early 2014. Dutch Customs disagreed with the Company's declared country of origin of these imported products, and the Company has filed an administrative appeal with Dutch Customs and expects to receive a final decision by the end of April 2017. If Dutch Customs dismisses the appeal, ReneSola Deutschland GmbH expects to ask for a judicial review by lodging a judicial appeal before the Dutch Court.
The Company is vigorously contesting these claims, and it is currently unable to estimate the possibility of success or loss from its requests for review and/or appeal. The general statute of limitations to collect arrears of custom duties expires after three year from the date on which an import declaration was filed provided that no deliberate customs fraud possibly leading to criminal liability has been committed. As such and since the Company has not received any additional claims up to the date of this announcement, the Company's products imported into the European Union before March 28, 2014 should not be subject to further duty demand by relevant customs. Moreover, the Company has fully exited from using OEMs from India, and made no further shipments to the European Union since the termination of its undertaking agreement to sell PV products at or above the Minimum Import Price in June 2015. However, any unfavorable outcome from these actions and disputes, including appeal of the outcome in these actions or disputes, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or resources in the future.
For Q1 2017, the Company expects revenue in the range of $130 to $150 million, external wafer shipments in the range of 240MW to 260MW and external module shipments in the range of 250MW to 260MW.
For full year 2017, the Company expects revenue in the range of $900 million to $1,000 million.
