So far, so good. Austrayia Day is when we celebrate being a real you beaut nation of Bruces and Shelias who are friends with everybody. Well, that's how it was until a few years back when the original owners (polite-speak) or whinging abos (get-you-thrown-in-the lock-up-speak) decided to rename it Invasion Day. "Not unreasonable, we get where your mob's coming from" was most people's reaction, "but strewth, mate, have your protests on some other day – there's 364 others to choose from; now sling us another beer".
Which would have probably been the end of it, but the left-wing, Chardonnay-Socialist, militant PC wowsers got hold of it and, like they usually do, wanted to make a fight of it and called everyone that didn't agree with them a red-neck right wing Nazi racist. As they do. Worse, some of the far-left-wing local councils said last year that in solidarity with their conquered and oppressed brothers and sisters (huh?), they would no longer hold citizenship ceremonies on Austrayia Day.
Just to explain, citizenship ceremonies can be held at any time, but Austrayia Day had become favoured because it was an excuse to have a party within a party, and with often 40 or more different nationalities queuing up in their national dress to get their Aussie Certificate. The federal gubmint said if they didn't, they'd lose the right to host citizenship ceremonies at any time. So there!
This year the PM has made it clear that such events will be held on the traditional day or else he'd have a hissy fit, rather like Trump's had about his wall – but in Strine, of course.
What tedious bores they are. I wish they'd just put on black puritan garb and go about smashing anything that might potentially bring joy, amusement or relief to people. At least that way they'd be honest about it. Very few people agree with the lot. What bemuses me is why we give them so much airtime, so much space, so much influence to push their agenda. A few swivel-eyed, foaming-at-the-mouth lunatics in central Sydney and Melbourne along with a few minor councils certainly can't speak for the large majority.
I hope you and Boadicea have a great party tomorrow, Bearsy. I love the look of that cake. Your own work?
Has anybody been following the saga of the Catholic school boys from Kentucky? Damn did those lefty twits get egg on their faces, though few if any will admit to it. There are lots of videos, but here are a couple.
Oh, by the way, Happy Austrayia Day for tomorrow.
They have similar ceremonies here, there is nothing more conducive to not changing one's nationality than seeing what turns up. Round here, (In Seattle) looks more like Somalia! One would be the only white face there. To be avoided at all costs. Of course the locals think its bloody wonderful in its 'diversity'. Diversity definitely is the' in word of the moment' round here for wogs. On every bloody newscast and programme on TV and radio.
July 4th is generally celebrated with the 'ritual burning of meat' according to spousal unit and gawping at fireworks which sounds more like the outbreak of WWIII round here and pacifying the 4 legged family units. Best place to avoid the whole thing is half way up Mt Baker, get a bit of peace and quiet.
!. A Good New Year to both you and Boadicea.
2. Advance Australia Fair for the day that is in it.
3. Above all else right now- Go Heat!
Cheers John – keep passing through!!!
Just over 16,000 happy people from 146 different nationalities became Aussies yesterday, in 365 ceremonies spread over the entire country. Read more here if you've time and the fortitude to be propagandised at.
The Sydney Austrayia Day evening party in the Circular Quay (where the Opera House is located) was even better than last year's, with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra accompanying a ballet by small sailboats and tugs, ending with a C-130 shooting missile defence flares all over the harbour – and many other exotic things with lots of fireworks and coloured lights, people dancing and the sound of overgrown didgeridoos on steroids.
Sorry to be a bit late to the party as I was in between international destinations all day Saturday. A belated happy Australia Day to you and Boadicea and I hope you found a cold slab, a barbie in the shade and a cool pool – alternatively a cold slab, a space on Mooloolaba beach with a sun tent, a barbie in the shade and the surf. Cold slabs have a a vital, constant importance.
A Hercules throwing missile defence flares all over Sydney Harbour? What's not to like? it was probably right up there with the New Year pyrotechnics. In London, there would be a celebration of LGBGT+MGB GT 'inclusiveness', celebrated exclusively (yet very publicly with maximum press coverage, for that is the modern agenda) by adherents of those diverse persuasions. Thankfully the Anglo Saxons got here first before the Romanians, Bangladeshis and Somalians, so we do not have any prominent equivalent to your metropolitan, liberal 'Hate Australia' Day. Having said that, if you have the temerity to raise an English flag in England on 23rd April you are obviously a far-right, racist, xenophobe. Such is life, sadly.
A whole mob of 'celebs' came out against 'Happy Australia Day' greetings; in general the public said 'and who are you?' and continued to wish everyone 'Happy Australia Day' – including the ABC which does, generally, jump on any Leftie bandwagon.
There were protest marches in various cities; but I don't think they got too much air-time – or more likely I wasn't looking out for them. I rather suspect a lot of other people also ignored them.
I skimmed an article entitled 'The Guilt that haunts every Australian' – which claimed that the English (please note never the British) committed genocide – I thought about commenting that if the English had committed genocide there'd ahve been no one left to complain – but didn't think it was worth the effort! And, I also thought about commenting that a large number of present-day Ozzies do not have an English heritage to 'feel guilty' about – but, again, what would have been the point!
Once upon a time 'Waltzing Matilda' was seen as the unofficial Australian anthem – the official National Anthem is indeed pretty boring.
has now become the unofficial Ozzie Anthem and is sung everywhere and says more about how most Australians think than any group of agitators.
G'day all of youse, especially the peripatetic JM, the erudite Sipu and the multilingual escapee from Kangaroo Point.
Happy Austrayia Day – again!
Indeed, JW! Sorry to offend, etc!

Fusionex Named as a Center of Excellence for Big Data Analytics Innovation In MDeC's National Big Data Analytics Innovation Network
CYBERJAYA, JANUARY 29, 2015 – In conjunction with the newly launched National Big Data Analytics (BDA) Innovation Network by Multimedia Development…
CYBERJAYA, JANUARY 29, 2015 – In conjunction with the newly launched National Big Data Analytics (BDA) Innovation Network by Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC), a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between MDeC and Fusionex International to build industry driven BDA Innovation Centers of Excellence (COE).
Fusionex International, a multi award winning IT company specializing in Business Intelligence, Analytics & Big Data, will work hand in hand with MDeC in accelerating BDA adoption in Malaysia. The establishment of this Innovation Network is a crucial step towards Malaysia becoming a BDA hub in the ASEAN region.
The signing of the MOU which establishes the BDA Innovation COE is seen as a strong commitment by both MDeC and Fusionex International to drive the adoption of BDA technologies, cultivate a culture of innovation and essentially, build a BDA ecosystem that will impact all sectors of the Malaysian economy.
MoUs were signed with Fusionex International and Teradata Corporation to build industry-driven COEs, while the third MoU was signed with the Malaysian Administrative Modernisation and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU) and Malaysian Institute of Microelectronic System (MIMOS) to establish a BDA Digital Government (DG) Lab which will be a part of the wider National BDA Innovation Network.
The MoUs covers areas of collaboration between MDeC and BDA experts from the public and private sectors which involve amongst others, designing and developing high impact BDA solutions in identified key sectors that play a significant role in Malaysia's economy such as banking, telecommunication, oil and gas, retail and e-commerce, healthcare, education, transportation and manufacturing. As these industries embrace BDA technologies, there will be a marked increase in awareness and interest in BDA. This will lead to the proliferation of BDA technologies in these key industries that would generate various job opportunities in the respective sectors, and thus create a sustainable ecosystem in Malaysia as a catalyst for further economic growth.
"The National BDA Innovation Network showcases MDeC leading the effort by drawing upon our competencies in national BDA thought-leadership. Indeed, no single player can drive the adoption of technology trends in Malaysia, thus, it is vital for BDA industry leaders to share their knowledge and expertise in accelerating the adoption of BDA on a national scale," said Dato' Yasmin Mahmood, CEO of MDeC.
The setting up of a National BDA COE was one of the three imperatives announced by the Prime Minister Dato' Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak during the 26th MSC Malaysia Implementation Council Meeting (ICM) held in October 2014 to drive the nation towards becoming a leading regional BDA player.
Ivan Teh, Managing Director of Fusionex commented, "In the current landscape, having the ability to mine data to derive meaningful insights as well as drive business decisions is of paramount importance. Fusionex applauds MDeC's efforts in the BDA space, and we are delighted to embark on this strategic partnership. To that end, Fusionex will join forces with MDeC and key industry leaders to spearhead and accelerate the adoption of BDA across the nation.
Specifically, our BDA COE will focus on high-impact projects and solutions, while our BDA Academy will bring about a new dimension of knowledge, expertise, innovation, cutting-edge technology and know-how, with vast possibilities. Apart from continuously bringing value to our customers, Fusionex has always been keen to address the broader Big Data market needs by making our revolutionary products and offerings available to all who are interested. By helping organizations and the wider ecosystem overcome the Big Data conundrum, we believe that opportunities can be unlocked and capitalized by forward-thinking organizations that are prepared to make the shift and adopt Big Data Analytics."
Fusionex's new state-of-the-art office in Malaysia which houses its Innovation Gateway, will be one of the key locations for the COE. Fusionex has also brought into existence its very own Big Data Academy, where it will serve as a platform to groom talent and will act as a training ground to enhance one's technological skillset necessary to stay in today's ever changing IT landscape.
During the MoU exchange ceremony, Craig Morrison, Country General Manager of Teradata Malaysia said that "We are fully behind MDeC's efforts in advancing BDA in Malaysia. The industry needs more success stories before the technology can be adopted in a big way. High impact projects developed by the COEs will be a compelling case on how BDA can benefit society, the government and businesses within Malaysia."
Dr Suhazimah Dzazali, Deputy Director General, MAMPU said, "We are delighted to participate in one of the most important developments that are currently unfolding in the Malaysia's technological sector particularly in the BDA front. Leveraging our position as a central agency responsible for public sector modernization, MAMPU will provide resources to jointly assess and qualify high-impact projects, coordinate the POCs, assist and advise agencies on their POC project management and facilitate the availability of government datasets.
"BDA is the key for Malaysia's ICT landscape to take advantage of the numerous opportunities made available by the Internet of things (IoT). The full value of IoT technologies as outlined in the National IoT Blueprint will not be realised until businesses and service providers are able to turn the massive amounts of data generated by all the connected devices into usable information that will help generate value for users. We are confident that our collaboration with MDeC will be able to plug this gap in order to reap the benefit from this increasingly vital trend" said Datuk Abdul Wahab Abdullah, President and CEO of MIMOS.

Interview By: Rohan A. Sawant
With an effort to break his monotony from his trademark style, to giving out his first rock-classic single and enjoying its success; Ankit Tiwari seems to be on a high currently. You certainly can understand how he is cherishing his success by listening to his caller tune of the recent hit. Amidst all that, we talk to this Badtameez' singer about his success, his thoughts about failure and future projects…
"I am first a composer and then a singer"
What was the starting point of 'Badtameez'?
The idea came from the punch line of the song. When Manoj Muntashir gave me this punch line, I thought it is very unique. The word 'Badtameez' has its own attitude and that initiated everything simultaneously. We discussed with Bhushanji, the director Sidhant Sachdev along with my brother. In a single you have this free hand to do anything. You can imagine and deliver anything because unlike in any film there are no boundaries of the story or situation. I was doing romantic songs for films which were kind of a safe zone for me but my brother and Sidhant came up with this idea that we should do something different and something which is not Ankit Tiwari. Every song that I have done for the films the situations was more or less the same. So that is how the punch line, the idea came and we got a green signal from Bhushanji and my brother so then we took it ahead.
How was it getting Sonal into the video?
What we believe is that every story without a love story is not a good story. And when we got this specification that there should be one love story in the video we started looking out for a face who could justify the innocence of the male protagonist in the video. So all of us were convinced that if Sonal Chahuan could come in, but we initially were not sure if she would get convinced. But when explained her the concept of the song, she was excited to do this. That's how she came into the picture.
As you mentioned earlier, giving out a single track is different from a track which is of a movie, because you have to build the whole story around it in very little time. So what were the dos and don'ts that you had in mind while doing 'Badtameez'?
We actually had not decided what should we do for this track initially, rather, we'd decided what not to do. As I said, we wanted to do something which Ankit Tiwari hasn't done before, something which isn't related to Ankit Tiwari. 'Badtameez' has a kind of angst, anger, the attitude which is not at all connected to my earlier songs. All the earlier songs would see heros romancing heroines in a beautiful location and so on. So it had become quite monotonous for me too! So we had to do something never done before by me and this was the basic idea that the whole team had in their mind. This was like an experiment which could have failed otherwise. But everyone on the team had a conviction and also every artist has his/her hunger to do something different from what they have done in the past.
Do you prefer to sing the songs which you have composed?
As a composer my responsibility is to deliver a product or a song which can justify the situation. So it is not necessary according to me to sing every song that I compose. It is the demand from the director, producer and the situation if I can sing that particular song. For me, I am first a composer and then a singer. When I am composing a song I know what mood of the song is, which makes it easy for me to sing it as well. To compose a song and its melody it takes somewhere close to a week or so and then you have to live with that song for a month or so. So when you are sleeping with that song for a month, the song automatically grows into your body. So you know the essence of the song, so definitely when you sing that song you do it from your heart. But again it also depends on various factors and most importantly the situation.
Because this is your first single, did it make you nervous?
I think even if any track fails, but if you have that passion, capability, capacity and dedication to do more singles you will want to do it more irrespective of the failures. And I think every artist or singer has this dream that he/she should have their own singles. Previously there was one time where albums were doing well, but now the time has changed and singles have started doing well. Also I feel that failures are a later part because when we are making a song we make it with a conscious effort that everyone should like it. No person in this world will work to give out a flop product; everyone wants to go the best. Once the song is ready and out for public, it is the audiences call if they like it or not!
You have composed songs for various films in the past out of which some have been real life stories and also you are doing 'Rustom', which is also based on the same lines. So is it difficult to compose music for film based on real life stories?
It is obviously a huge challenge as a composer. The challenges are more because those are real life stories based on real people and incidents. So the important part that I have to worry about is where or in what situation the song is in the film because we don't have songs in our real life. Real life isn't as filmy. So to make this real life filmy on the reel life you have to put in colours along with the directors input, because they add up to the entertainment factor to the film. So keeping these things in mind and to maintain the balance of the film we have to characterise the song accordingly. Our constant effort in such scenarios is that we try to create the programming of the song correctly. There's a lot of research involved like to what instruments were used that particular time or what was the type of music that was heard by people of that time. These are very minutes details that every composer has to keep in mind when he is doing such a film. In India, no mood can be perfectly defined without songs. India is one such country wherein for every incident starting from birth till death we have ragas and songs. So we have to keep all these things in mind while composing because songs are the best way to express one's feelings in a very concise manner.

Aston Martin V12 Zagato Revealed
Discussion in 'International Automotive Scene' started by Codename.47, May 23, 2011.
Codename.47 Guest
To celebrate 50 year since the first partnership between Aston Martin and Italian coachbuilder Zagato, the duo have now revealed the V12 Zagato which will go on display at the upcoming Villa d'Este Concorso d'Eleganza.
Based on the V12 Vantage the the car uses the same 5.9-liter engine and makes 510-hp. The body has been entirely reworked by Zagato with all new aluminum body panels and plenty of trademark Zagato design cues.
"The task for us has been to create a concept that is a natural successor to those iconic cars that have gone before," said Aston Martin CEO Dr Ulrich Bez. "Matching the technology of the age with the traditional skills vital to deliver such a bespoke and exclusive sports car will lead to a strictly limited run of road going V12 Zagatos."
In addition to those few street cars, Aston Martin is also preparing a racing version of the ultra-rare exotic and will even compete with it in the Nurburgring 24 hour race on June 25th.
The V12 Zagato will get its first public showing at the Villa d'Este Concours on May 20th, alongside other rare one-offs like the Ferrari Superamerica 45.

Pope Francis to visit the Synagogue of Rome
Vatican City, 17 November 2015 (VIS) – The Holy See Press Office today announced that, following an invitation from the Chief Rabbi and Jewish Community of Rome, Pope Francis will pay a visit to the Great Synagogue in the afternoon of Sunday 17 January 2016. It will be the third visit by a Pope to the Great Synagogue of Rome, following John Paul II and Benedict XVI.
The visit will take the form of a personal encounter between the Pope and the representatives of Judaism and the members of the Community. A more detailed programme of the visit will be published in due course.

The culture of Salus and welcome at the service of man and the planet
Vatican City, 17 November 2015 (VIS) – This morning, in the Holy See Press Office, a press conference was held to present the 30th International Conference organised by the Pontifical Council for Health Care Pastoral on the theme "The culture of Salus and welcome at the service of man and the planet" (Vatican City, 19-21 November).
The speakers at the conference were Archbishop Zygmunt Zimowski, president of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Workers (for Health Pastoral Care); Msgr. Jean-Marie Mate Musivi Mupendawatu and Fr. Augusto Chendi, M.I., respectively secretary and under-secretary of the same dicastery; Dr. Antonio Maria Pasciuto, president of the Italian Association for Environmental Medicine and Health, Italy; and Dr. Lilian Corra, president of the Argentine Association of Doctors for the Environment, Argentina.
Archbishop Zimowski explained that the Conference is inspired by Pope Francis' encyclical "Laudato si'", and seeks to identify methods and indications for a pastoral response to the needs, in many cases urgent, expressed in the document. He also noted the event's proximity to the climate conference in Paris and the opening of the Jubilee Year, which will offer an opportunity to reflect on love for others and for the Lord's work. In addition, this year the Pontifical Council celebrates the 30th anniversary of its establishment and the 20th anniversary of John Paul II's encyclical Evangelium Vitae.
The profound bond between the world of sickness and healthcare with the Mother of Jesus, as shown in the celebration of World Day of the Sick on 11 February, the liturgical memory of Our Lady of Lourdes, also inspires the theme of this Day in 2016, to be celebrated in Nazareth on the theme "Entrusting oneself to the merciful Jesus like Mary: do whatever he tells you".
The president of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Workers (Health Pastoral Care) reported that the 30th International Conference will be attended by 500 people from around 60 countries of the five continents: Angola, Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Belgium, Benin, Bolivia, Botswana, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Canada, Colombia, the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cote d'Ivoire, Croatia, the Dominican Republic, Eritrea, France, Georgia, Ghana, Greece, Haiti, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Lebanon, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Togo, Ukraine, Uruguay, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and Zimbabwe. The event will also involve contributions from theologians, biblical scholars, doctors, scientists, diplomats and legal experts of international standing.
The conference will begin with Mass in St. Peter's Basilica, presided by Cardinal Peter Kodwo Appiah Turkson, president of the Pontifical Council "Justice and Peace", and on the same morning Pope Francis will receive in audience all the participants.
Msgr. Jean-Marie Mate Musivi Mupendawatu explained that the Conference, taking as its starting point the encyclical "Laudato si'", will consider climate change and the defence of biodiversity, information and technological pollution, animal experimentation and genetic modification, environmental stress and working medicine, pathologies linked to climate change and international legislation on environmental issues.
He continued, "Special attention will be dedicated to the theme of the challenges to be faced nowadays at world summits: the right of access to clean drinking water, denied to many; sanitation problems in urban areas and especially on the outskirts of cities. Projects for development and business initiatives, particularly in poor countries, have an impact on the environment that is not infrequently neglected or underestimated. It is therefore urgent to ensure that development plans respect life and the environment, and are therefore far from the devastating aims of mere profit".
"Finally", he added, "reflection on the anthropological roots of the ecological crisis would be timely in view of a hoped-for ecological conversion, deriving from an increased awareness of the responsibilities of each person, in order to inspire change in the direction of a rediscovered harmony between man and the environment".
Dr. Corra commented that a recent press release from the World Health Organisation indicates that "few risks affect health as much as air contamination, which poses by far the most serious danger to health. It is responsible for one in every eight deaths, is the cause of more than 80% of mortality in countries with medium to low income, and has particularly worrying effects on fertility and neurological development, which can manifest themselves as behavioural disorders and impaired intellectual performance".
Vatican City, 17 November 2015 (VIS) – Today, the Holy Father received in audience Bishop Nunzio Galantino, general secretary of the Italian Episcopal Conference.
Vatican City, 17 November 2015 (VIS) – The Holy Father has appointed:

The church is tired of seeing Christians act ungraciously toward one another when they disagree. Social media has added to the carnage. Christians routinely lash out on Twitter or block each other on Facebook because of doctrinal disagreements. The world watches the bloodletting, and the Christian witness is tarnished.
But what if every Christian discovered that their favorite teacher in church history had blind spots and held to some false--and even shocking--views? Bestselling author Frank Viola argues that this simple awareness will soften Christians when they interact with each other in the face of theological disagreements.
In ReGrace, he uncovers some of the shocking beliefs held by faith giants like C. S. Lewis, Luther, Calvin, Moody, Spurgeon, Wesley, Graham, and Augustine--not to downgrade or dismiss them, but to show that even "the greats" in church history didn't get everything right. Knowing that the heroes of our faith sometimes got it wrong will empower us to treat our fellow Christians with grace rather than disdain whenever we disagree over theology.
Frank Viola has helped thousands of people around the world to deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ and enter into a more vibrant and authentic experience of church. He has written many books on these themes, including his signature work, Insurgence: Reclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom. His blog, frankviola.org, has been ranked in the top ten of all Christian blogs on the web today.


We all talk about de-toxing in January but (despite our recent warm luck) these are the months where the weather gets extremely cold, the days are dark and grey and we are all suffering from the SAD. We crave a warming meat pie or a hearty stew – and I will certainly be tucking into those winter treats over the next month….
Ah, hummus! A pot of basic hummus, some pitta bread and a simple fresh salad were part of my staple diet as a student. And while German supermarkets do not often stock hummus there is certainly no shortage of it in the plentiful Turkish supermarkets or Berlin's street food scene. Head out for a Falafel Teller and there will often be a dollop of hummus on the side. But it is Zula Café that serves the real hummus treat! A favourite of mine is the hummus with the goulash but I also love the Sabich – aubergine, hummus and a hard boiled egg all stuffed in fresh pitta bread….
fresh, seasonal goods in Germany and there is no doubt that supermarkets over here are improving! When I very first moved to Berlin (yes, even in Berlin!) I would be lucky to find a packet of tortilla wraps… and the idea of stocking curry powder (any kind, there is no room for being fussy) or Thai red curry paste was totally out of this world. So how do we deal with a German supermarket? It's simple. Just go back to basics and compromise by replacing a certain ingredient with something else and never, ever rely on the supermarket having a certain ingredient again. I made this mistake one too many times and ended up having a full basket of goods but one vital part of the meal not in my basket – for example red curry paste….


The LA Bioscience Hub will be at this year's Urban Land Institute (ULI) Urban Marketplace, and we hope to see you there!
The LA Bioscience Corridor is home to leading research universities, medical facilities, and a highly skilled workforce. The key to unlocking the immense potential for bioscience in East LA is real estate investment. The need for commercial wet lab space exists and continues to grow. The LA Bioscience Corridor has an abundance of industrial land that is primed for repositioning and redevelopment into new bioscience facilities that support jobs and the boost the region's economy.
With established bioscience industry clusters already present in the Santa Clarita Valley and South Bay, Los Angeles County and the City of LA have pegged LA Bioscience Corridor along Valley Boulevard in East Los Angeles as the next frontier for bioscience growth in the region.
The needs of bioscience start-ups and their employees.
Thank you to all those who were able to attend our tour event in the LA Bioscience Corridor on October 9!

Q: Deal with no internet connection in windows 8 app using bing map api I am creating a Windows 8.1 app using Bing map sdk in C# using this guide  http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/408457/Using-Bing-Maps-For-Windows-8-Metro-Apps-Csharp-Ja.
Now when I am using this app without internet connection the app crashes. So how can I deal with this no internet connection exception?

A: Put this property in App.xaml.cs as use it to test if Internet is available or not
public static bool IsInternetAvailable
{
    get
    {
        var profiles = NetworkInformation.GetConnectionProfiles();
        var internetProfile = NetworkInformation.GetInternetConnectionProfile();
        return profiles.Any(s => s.GetNetworkConnectivityLevel() == NetworkConnectivityLevel.InternetAccess)
            || (internetProfile != null
                    && internetProfile.GetNetworkConnectivityLevel() == NetworkConnectivityLevel.InternetAccess);
    }
}

if(App.IsInternetAvailable)
{
    //Do operation of Bing map
}
else
{
    //Show message dialog
}

A: Check it first?
For example by method:
public static bool CheckForInternetConnection()
{
    try
    {
        using (var client = new WebClient())
        using (var stream = client.OpenRead("http://www.bing.com"))
        {
            return true;
        }
    }
    catch
    {
        return false;
    }
}

A: Here is my code for windows 8.1
public static bool have_net()
    {
        ConnectionProfile InternetConnectionProfile = NetworkInformation.GetInternetConnectionProfile();

        if (InternetConnectionProfile == null) return false;

        NetworkConnectivityLevel ncl = InternetConnectionProfile.GetNetworkConnectivityLevel();

        if (ncl == NetworkConnectivityLevel.InternetAccess)
        {
            return true;
        }

        bool b1 = InternetConnectionProfile.IsWwanConnectionProfile;
        bool b2 = InternetConnectionProfile.IsWlanConnectionProfile;

        return (b1 || b2);
    }

Bradford Heap: One Chef's Rise to the Non-GMO Challenge
by Radha Marcum
When a chef in Boulder, Colorado, declares his kitchen a GMO-free zone, it may seem like a no-brainer. After all, organic- and local-food-favoring Boulderites have been vocal in the non-GMO debate for many years. But to truly eliminate GMOs at the restaurant level is no easy task, says Bradford Heap, chef and owner of Salt Bistro in Boulder, Colorado, and Colterra in nearby Niwot. Nevertheless, in May of this year Heap joined several other Boulder chefs committed to non-GMO cooking, plunging headfirst into making his restaurants 100 percent GMO-free.
On behalf of Calmful Living, I met with Heap one sunny afternoon at Salt, over a light lunch salad harvested that morning from one of Heap's partner farms. Heap proudly showed me several dozen heads of Little Gem lettuces soaking in a stainless-steel bin in the kitchen. "This is the first time we grew this variety," says Heap. "Look! They're incredible!" Indeed, the medium-bodied leaves were crisp and perfect with white balsamic and buttermilk dressing, garnished with shaved turnips and fresh tomatoes.
In contrast to the cool lettuce, Heap was fired up. "I'm really mad about GMOs. I have ten-year-old twins. I think our ability to sustain ourselves and future generations is being impeded by these big biotech companies." Heap cites Michael Pollan's books and ongoing social media presence, the documentary film The World According to Monsanto, and renowned Manhattan chef Tom Colicchio's TEDx Talk "Vote Food" as primary influences on his decision to go GMO-free.
"I don't know that GMOs are inherently bad; I'm not a scientist," he continues. "But the way that the biotech companies go about creating and selling these seeds, controlling the market and promoting pesticide use, creating super-weeds and more pesticides, contributing to bee colony collapse disorder . . . I don't want to support that with my restaurants."
It's not just about eliminating nonorganic corn and soy ingredients, some of the most obvious GMO offenders, Heap explains. According to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, 70 percent of processed foods contain GMOs. He has to consider sneaky ingredients like sugar in sweetened beverages, often made from GMO sugar beets. "When I started looking into it, I realized that I had to go all in. I couldn't just take some ingredients out and leave others."
It became particularly challenging when he began to scrutinize what animals are fed, especially if pasture raised but grain finished, says Heap. His restaurants have always served humanely raised, grass-fed meats. "It was extremely difficult to source pork, chicken, beef, and chicken eggs from animals fed a clean, non-GMO diet." Despite the surplus of grains in the US, most animal feed is imported, Heap points out, making it incredibly difficult to trace. Though not typically vegan, Heap was in the midst of a one-month commitment to vegan eating when we met.
How has he overcome these obstacles? Heap says he owes his success in sourcing clean, non-GMO meats, dairy and eggs to his strong network of local providers. "I've succeeded with the good relationships I've developed with farmers and producers who share these principles—Soul Patch, for example. My restaurant staff have been incredibly supportive. It has taken a lot of education, but they are fully on board." Some people come into the restaurant just wanting a good-tasting burger, he says, and that is OK. "For those who want to know, we can help close the gap between what's on their plate, why it tastes so good, and where it originated—the people involved in that process."
Going non-GMO has meant a big price increase for some ingredients, such as eggs, which went up a full 25 percent. Nevertheless, there has been tremendous support for the move so far. "When I took GMOs on, even though I didn't care so much about my image as a chef, I was worried that it would kill my business. But our profits were up 19 percent in June," he reports.
Heap supports his organic suppliers not only by buying their produce but by going out and actually participating in farming—the planting, weeding, harvesting—several times a week. "There's a deep humility to farming, to be physically out there; it's tough. When you put a seed in the ground and nurture it, grow it, and see it to the table, that makes me feel successful. It's so much bigger than 'me,'" reflects Heap. "Growing foods and doing my part to raise awareness around GMOs gives me a greater purpose than just being a successful chef with several restaurants."
Beyond simply choosing non-GMO-verified foods at our grocery store and, if possible, in the restaurants we frequent, Heap says that it's imperative we use our voting power to influence what happens at the governmental level. "We need more accountability. We need to vote out of office those who support these big companies. Everyone should watch Tom Colicchio's TEDx Talk and consider his scorecard for politicians. We need to unite around this one topic, to vote consistently," he asserts.
"My restaurant is an example of how, with willpower, it is possible. We can go GMO-free," Heap says emphatically. "We can eat healthily, humanely, seasonally, locally. You can do it!" he encourages.

Who Will Stand on His Head for Her?
What can I say in your honor, Jerusalem, that hasn't already been said? Everyone wants to crown you and say "she's mine", or "I was here first." Is there a place left on your head for me to set some crowns of my own?
A Head Stand or a Nod?
The following story never ceases to amaze me.
As 1949 was coming to an end, the UN assembly voted on turning Jerusalem into an international city. At that point Jerusalem was divided between 1-year old Israel, and Jordan. On December 5th 1949, the Israeli Minister of Foreign Affairs called from New York to notify Prime Minister Ben Gurion that the vote may pass in favor of the resolution. Apparently, the UN vote had many supporters. Israel suggested international governing only upon the sacred places, not all over the city.
An Israeli delegation was sent urgently to the UN, in an attempt to garner support from foreign ambassadors. To no avail. The delegation sent a telegram to Ben Gurion, notifying him that "our suggestion in regards to Jerusalem has a chance of receiving one vote only – Israel's".
At that moment, the Old Man (that's what everyone called Ben Gurion) was sitting in his office, reading the OT. His personal assistant read the telegram to him, stressing that "Israel's vote is the only one guaranteed to support our resolution".
David Ben Gurion loved to stand on his head. Every day.
I wonder what historical decisions were made while
his blood was flowing from his feet in the other direction
Ben Gurion took another look at the open Bible on his desk. "Yes", he said firmly, and pointed to the text, "but that is the deciding vote!"
He than asked his secretary to send a response, stating, "In my opinion, that one vote is enough".
Four days later, on December 9th, the voting was held at the UN: 38 voted for internationalization of Jerusalem, 14 against, 7 abstained. This placed Israel between a rock and a hard place. If we did not respond, it will be interpreted as acceptance of the UN resolution.
The following morning Ben Gurion arrived at the cabinet meeting, which was seated back than in Tel Aviv, and proposed to move all the government offices to Jerusalem. Immediately! The assembly turned into a tumultuous argument. Many ministers supported Ben Gurion, but there were those who hesitated. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, who was still in NY, sent another telegram. This one was to notify of his resignation, as he disagreed with the proposal to move the government offices to Jerusalem. Ben Gurion replied that he does not accept the resignation. The Old man obviously enjoyed being obstinate and standing on his head.
This amusing pose has become part of our national memory,
so much so that outside the little house to which Ben Gurion
retired from political activity stands a statue
depicting this perpetual state he chose to live his life in.
Four more days passed. On December 13, at 5 pm, Ben Gurion addressed the Knesset, the Israeli cabinet. He reminded everyone that the Tel Aviv location was temporary, and suited them only because Jerusalem has been under siege during the War of Independence.
The first cabinet of Israel was housed in
Sharona neighborhood in Tel Aviv,
until all the offices were moved to Jerusalem
"The state of Israel has always had and always will have only one capital", he declared. "Jerusalem is eternal… we are now continuing actively to move the government to Jerusalem… there is no reason to prevent the Knesset from returning to Jerusalem…"
The world responded in anger. France condemned Israel. The Vatican was enraged. Catholic countries protested bitterly. But that was it. That's all that happened. Nothing besides some negative statements and feelings.
Several days later trucks laden with office furniture, official documents and supplies begun moving the Israeli government into Jerusalem. The UN's plan of internationalizing Jerusalem did not come to fruition. The western part of the city became the capital of Israel. During the Six-Day War the Israeli Defense Forces captured East Jerusalem, and in 1980 the Knesset signed a law asserting that the complete and unified Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.
Ask How She is Doing…
In Psalm 122 the psalmist invites those who love Jerusalem to "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem".
The word translated as "pray" – Sha'alu – is actually a mistranslation. The psalmist is not calling his readers to pray that there will be peace in Jerusalem, as if it were some mantra to be pronounced daily as part of a list of things to pray for. The word "Sha'alu" requires the reader to take interest in Jerusalem's well-being, inquire as to it, or lack thereof, and examine why there is no peace there, so that we can pray accordingly. That same saying appears in Jeremiah 15:5, where it is translated more accurately.
So How is Jerusalem Doing?
Right now it's pretty backed up, congested. Trump came for a historical visit, the implications of which will only be clear in the days to come, and turned moving around in this cramped and narrow city to almost impossible. Festivals and special events take place all over the city for the 50 years' celebration. It is packed with tourists, with those who love her, as well as those who seek to harm her.
The status of Jerusalem will be challenged again soon, along with the other borders of Israel. Will our present leaders be able to stand on their heads, put their fingers on the right Bible page, and against all odds, against all public opinion, follow that One Voice that truly matters?
Your prayers, your support, your stand in the gap, can make a difference here.

Orna Grinman
Years ago, during a trip to South Africa, I met a family of Israel-loving Gentiles. From them I learned to see Jesus of Nazareth – Yeshua – as the best friend of my nation, and not the greatest enemy, as I was raised to believe.
After the initial shock and despite my resistance, I realized that He is the Jewish Messiah, the one who loved and carried us from Days of Old, and not the enemy of my nations, as I was raised to believe. I was so touched to find out that He is waiting eagerly to return home, to His brothers and sisters.
Since then I discovered another love: to see my beloved nation Israel relating to God not as a bereaved widow, but as a Mother-Nation; and to see the Gentiles taking their powerful position in this process of restoration.
This blog is about…
Israel, and her widowhood, or rather her restoration from a status of a bereaved and ruined nation, into a glorious Bride.
What makes her a widow? Is that how God sees her? Is He really commanding us to pray for peace in Jerusalem? And what does He want those who love Israel and her children to do on her behalf?
This is what this blog is all about. I will share here insights, prayer points and personal stories from the Land. Subscribe here, and find your crucial place alongside Israel, at such a time as this.

WHERE SCOUTING MEETS ANALYTICS
Alex Highsmith
SCOUTING GRADE
Games Evaluated: 2019 Vs: Clemson, Buffalo, Gardner-Webb 2018 Vs: Tennessee
Report By: Peter Vandeventer
ATHLETICISM: 7.10
Q.A.B. / C.O.D.: 7.30
Flexibility: 7.10
Explosiveness: 7.60
Playing Speed	: 7.30
Coordination: 6.20
Highsmith is extremely quick off the snap and able to make chase down plays due to his insane about of quickness/acceleration. He does run into some issues with balance though, Highsmith got caught in a few situations where he looked a little too aggressive and caused a little issue in his balance. While rushing the passer, he had a few occasions where he was caught reaching and the lineman put him on his back. But his insane athletic ability for the position jumps off the film so well. He has nice bend at times but he also doesn't utilize it to the best of his ability at times. Pretty fluid and doesn't show much stiffness in his play. Highsmith is explosive and was always the most explosive player on the field from his film. He was consistently the first player off the ball and has powerful hands that add to his explosivity. Highsmith is fast but is he is quicker than anything. He has really good short-area quickness and speed whereas he didn't have the option to show off his long speed in his film. In one of the areas he lacks most, Highsmith has just ok/solid coordination, has moments where he just gets ahead of himself and doesn't engage all at the same time but showed some progress as the season developed in this area.
PASS RUSHING ABILITY: 7.38
Initial Quickness: 8.50
Use of Hands: 7.80
Leverage: 7.00
Pass Rush Moves: 6.70
Finish Ability: 6.90
Highsmith has a strong first step that is also extremely quick and it's too the extent where opposing lineman has to give up more yardage to him and simply take a few steps back as they set because he is simply too quick off the ball. His hand usage is so important, his strong hands help him control the interaction with the OL. He has shorter arms than most opposing lineman which is why he was also able to make a lot of plays on the inside as well as outside. But like I said, his shorter arms do detract from his strong arms because he can have issues disengaging from blocks when linemen get their arms extended and locked on him. He often needs to play with speed and torque in order to create leverage due to questions about his arm length, but still no real glaring issues in this area because he is still able to do so. Does a job mixing his approaches such as his spin move, dip, and rip, and also does a good job on inside stunts. His speed around the outside sets up his inside move well and really puts stress on the tackle. Finishing wise, he has a knack for getting to the QB. I didn't see a large amount of batted passes but he rarely let a QB go due to his recurring athletic abilities.
COMPETES: 7.57
Toughness: 7.30
Consistency/Motor: 7.90
Production: 7.50
He is tough, willing to go inside where he is often outweighed. Not injury issues and plays all downs. A high motor player but does have moments towards the end of games where he began to fade and not show up as much on tape. Very productive college career that accumulated nearly 50 TFLs and over 20 sacks.
AGAINST THE RUN: 6.97
Play with Leverage: 6.70
Stack and Shed: 7.60
Gap Shooting Ability: 6.90
Run at Him: 6.00
Run Away: 7.80
Tackling/Hitting: 6.80
Holds blocks well and showed tendencies to disengage from blocks in a well-timed fashion. His hand usage allows him to control the blocks and leverages his way through blocks well. Highsmith does a great job reading blocking schemes and attacks the weakness. Countless times where I saw him shed a down block and either disrupt the run or make a play. He can get a little too aggressive in this category. But he still has good gap integrity. I few situations where he was in the backfield a little too early and it created more running. Doesn't have the strength to completely dominate when the run is in his direction but he still showed the ability to keep and hold contain. A bit of a tendency to use more his shoulder to try and disrupt the play and not his hands. He has a high motor and that mixed well with his quickness off the snap allows him to still be in on the play when ran against him. He trails the play but his backside containment can be an issue as he overpursues at times. Very good lateral shuffle even with the little issue of over pursuit. All-around good tackler with no noticeable flaws. Can get out of frame sometimes but he still wraps up well and cleans up.
INTELLIGENCE: 6.97
Instincts: 7.10
Learn/Retain: 7.00
Teamwork: 6.80
Very good instincts but can be misdirected out of the flow of the play. He was still learning the intricacies of the position and it showed. He started to gain a greater understanding of how blocking schemes work and shot through gaps in his film that you didn't see from early this season/last year. Good work ethic and teamwork. Good communication and doesn't have issues with running into other rush lanes.
Highsmith is quick off the ball and has a nice combination of quickness and strength to make plays against the run as well as the pass. Highsmith has been able to develop his game over the past year and has been able to fill the stat sheet as he currently sits top 5 in the nation in sacks which added to his already stellar run defense. He plays as if his hair is on fire and has as high of a motor as you will find of anyone in the draft class. Due to his quickness off the snap and strong hands (despite shorter arms), he has been able to make plays against the run and was especially effective when teams run outside zones away from him (where he really can show off his speed). He also has a nice repertoire of pass rush moves as he has a respectable spin move, dip and rip, and a strong inside move. To go along with his pass rush moves, he has played this season as a standup rusher (where he has been the most effective) but has also played at 3-tech. He started his career at Charlotte at LB before transitioning after his sophomore year, and his production truly started to skyrocket as he got settled.
Playing in Conference USA, Highsmith hasn't played against a high level of competition for most of his career (except for a few games against Clemson, Tennessee, etc.). Highsmith has an issue getting off blocks when his speed is neutralized off the snap and cant create leverage when he gets a slow start to the play. I've seen a few mentions that he will likely test with a shorter wingspan which can be a reason for the lack of natural leverage he can create when his first move off the ball is beat. He has had a few issues with over pursuing and giving an opening for offensive players to cut the play back outside. His high motor can also be misconstrued as a sort of sloppiness in his play and can easily be nullified when he doesn't play as technically sound (which happens at times).
Alex Highsmith attended the East-West Shrine Game where he got to go up against a better level of talent of OL, and really seemed to sell teams that his skill set will translate. I can see Highsmith finding a spot NFL teams as an edger rusher in a 3-4 scheme but he could play in a 4-3 scheme if he adds some weight. Expect Highsmith to be taken mid-late day 2 to early day 3.

Danielle Anderson (left) and Olivia Equinoa (right) inform students about LBGTQ+ people in STEM on Nov. 18. Photo by Anna Stubler
As prospective students drive into California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB)'s campus, they pass by banners that boast inclusive excellence the campus offers. However, students from the LGBTQ+ community may still worry about facing homophobia when joining the campus community, especially in STEM fields which has been traditionally dominated by heterosexual male scientists.
This was the case for third-year biology and UROC scholar Danielle Anderson when applying to CSUMB.
"I was talking with another queer person, and I found out that her and I had done the exact same thing when applying to CSUMB, as that we lied and said that we're straight."
Anderson said the reason for omission of her identity was she was unsure if the person viewing her application had negative feelings toward LGBTQ+ people. Experiences like these prompted Anderson to put on a tabling event within the Chapman science building on CSUMB's campus to celebrate the International Day of LGBTQ+ people in STEM.
Anderson worked with the College of Science, as well as Olivia Equinoa – an officer in the science club on campus – in order to set up a table, informing students about famous scientists in the queer community, safe spaces on campus for queer scientists and the history of the International Day of LGBTQ+ people in STEM.
"A lot of people took brochures," Anderson said. "This is our second stack of the day because they all went."
According to the brochure, the event celebrates the anniversary of American astronomer and gay activist Frank Kameny's U.S. Supreme Court case fighting against workplace discrimination.
While it may be difficult for queer people to break into STEM because of potential discrimination, the table noted other notable queer scientists such as neurobiologist and first openly transgender elected member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences Ben Barres.
The colorful table sported flags representing different segments of the queer community, as well as information about gender and sexual orientation. Additionally, information about support programs and scholarships that may be of interest to students were presented.
Despite the support and resources available, Anderson shared some worries that her and other queer people in STEM face.
"You worry about a lot of people, specifically possible mentors and teachers and guidance people who might be homophobic," Anderson said.
"I want [queer people] to know that no matter what their identity is, that they're welcome here," Anderson said. "If there are people in the College of Science that don't welcome them here, they are not welcome. It's not the other way around."
Below are some helpful resources for LGBTQ+ STEM students provided in the brochure:

A kind of cross between the axe kick and the front kick, but applied very differently. As its name suggests, this kick is designed to make distance between you and your opponent by 'pushing' them rather than actually making a forceful impact. A very good technique to use if an opponent likes to come in close, since it can give distance between you as well as being a good starter for an effective combination.
2) While shifting the weight of the body on to the front leg, begin to lift the kicking leg. The upper part of the body should remain upright at all times, and the arms should be kept as close to the face as possible to protect the head and torso. The supporting foot should face towards the target area at all times during the kick, and should never move.
3) Continue raising the leg using the quadriceps, passing the supporting leg, keeping the lower half of the leg at right angles to the top half of the leg.
4) Unlike the front kick, and more like the axe kick, continue raising the leg so that the top half the kicking leg is right up to the chest and the lower half is pointing towards the opponent. This is the chamber position of the kick.
5) The leg must be then pushed out with the sole of the foot travelling towards the opponent. This is the point of contact. Contact is made with the sole of the foot made in a 'pushing' motion. Remember to kick through the target by making sure that contact is made before the leg is completely straightened, (I find maximum power is reached just after midway between the chamber position and point where leg is fully locked). Also remember to make sure that the muscles in the leg are tensed before the leg is completely straightened to avoid any injury to the knee caused by jarring.
6) Return the kick through exactly the same route.
7) Return the kick through exactly the same route remembering to keep the guard up to protect your face.
8) Back to the ready stance.

Abstract: "Over the years, environmental pollution has spawned a great deal of public and private litigation and related governmental investigations. One type of claim, however, has seen little contemporary litigation: claims for natural resource damages (NRD). The relative dearth of NRD claims being pursued is unusual given the breadth of available legal theories and the compelling public interest at stake. The goal of this article is to explain the importance of NRD programs and evaluate the process of bringing and defending NRD claims in the United States."

Senators want ruling on whether Facebook password requests are illegal
Senators Richard Blumenthal and Charles Schumer asked the Justice Department …
Jon Brodkin - Mar 26, 2012 1:55 pm UTC
85 with 53 posters participating
Two US Senators asked the Department of Justice and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to start an investigation into whether employers asking job applicants for usernames and passwords violates federal law.
The issue has come under scrutiny in the past week, after the Associated Press and others reported on employers asking applicants for Facebook usernames and passwords. Facebook took a stand, saying it could take legal action, although the company noted that it has no immediate plans to sue any specific employers.
US Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Charles Schumer (D-NY) asked the agencies to investigate whether such requests violate current federal law, the senators said yesterday. The Senators plan to write legislation filling any gaps in federal law that might allow employers to require login information to social networking sites and e-mail accounts.
While disturbing, the problem is likely not very widespread. Forbes called it "the great Facebook employee password nonissue," saying most of the cases reported by news media took place in 2010 or earlier. In a case involving the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, the department dropped the requirement, but still requests "voluntary" access to usernames and passwords, Forbes reported. In 2009, the city of Bozeman, Montana, decided to stop asking applicants for Facebook passwords after a flood of opposition.

Cambridgeshire churches are shelling out thousands on roof alarms to fight lead theft.
Around 25 churches have applied for help from the Cambridgeshire Historic Churches Trust (CHCT) to fit the £5,000 roof alarms - and it is hoped all churches in the county will be alarmed by 2019.
Alarms not only deter thieves but enable churches to claim the full cost of repair bills, often tens of thousands of pounds, from insurers.
Chair of the Trustees Bishop David Thompson, has been spearheading the campaign.
He said: "We have a long-standing problem of lead theft from church roofs.
"The police work hard but there are very few convictions.
"The historical church fund has created an appeal to help churches with alarms, so they can claim the full cost if theft from insurers. The fund will pay for half the costs of having the alarms fitted."
The theft of lead from historic church roofs can lead to further weather damage.
As surrounding counties fit alarms, Cambridgeshire must follow suit to prevent thieves from moving across the border.
Around 25 churches have had the specialist alarms fitted, but it is believed around 25 more could benefit from the scheme.
Canon David Pritchard, chair of the CHCT's executive committee met with John Crang, who sits on the council of one of the churches repeatedly affected by lead theft today (November 9).
Saint Mary the Parish of Comberton has been raided twice in recent times. Mr Pritchard said the emotional toll of lead theft can be huge in a small parish.
He said: "It takes several thousands to supply the materials then fit them because it has to be done by experts so it can be a huge sum.
"I don't think words can describe the terror and distress. When this happens the people who are responsible for that building, the church councillors and the worshiping community are faced with footing a bill which they have not set aside any money.
"The churches don't run on reserve, so there huge personal distress and communities can feel that."
Among the scheme's supporters is crime commissioner Jason Ablewhite, who has donated £10,000 to the campaign.
"Measures such as installing specialist alarms will help protect the lead roofs of churches which have been prime targets of thieves in recent years resulting in damage to historic buildings and distress to local communities," he said.


I was looking unsuccessfully. Did anyone find version 96? or do not need to have it because it's the same as 97?
96 is only needed if you want it for collecting purposes, otherwise it is identical to 97 except for the engine, which probably only contain minor fixes comparing to the 96 one. Levels are exactly the same.
The PC Gamer version just goes to a black screen and crashes for me.
The PC Gamer version is an alpha build so it will have issues on modern computers.
Does it crash when you start it or does it happens when you load a level?
It does it when a boot the game. It just changes my monitor res to 640X480 and then goes to a black screen, then it kicks me to desktop and it closes. I was thinking of running it in a vm but my proccesor dosen't allow me to run VMs from before Xp and are above or below 32 bit. Also can I ask why it asks to delete a dll in system 32 when uninstalled?
That is weird. Are you on a laptop? Some laptops have 2 graphic cards (one integrated and one external), try changing to the "better" one. Have you tried running the exe with Windows 98 compatibility in the Preference settings of it?


Congratulations to Stefan MaCrae, from Goole, who passed his driving test on 14 Jan 19 in Scunthorpe with ZERO faults. Stefan is the 2nd learner to pass this year with Zero faults, however there is something a little special about this pass.
Stefan was being taught to drive by Tony Benton, who sadly passed away on 10 Jan 19, Within a few hours of Tony's passing we at Xpert had taken on as many of Tony's pupils as we could, prioritising those that had tests coming up. Stefan was the first one, due to his test being 4 days later. Tom, on of our Xpert instructors, gave up his Sunday to take Stefan out in the car and get him used to his car. That is all the driving Stefan had in the car beforehand. So to pass with ZERO faults, goes to show the skill level that Stefan had, this skill level was due to the training he had recieved from Tony. I know Tony would have been so proud to achieve a ZERO fault pass as we all do when we get one, So the praise and congratulations for this ZERO fault pass must be heaped on Stefan and Tony, and Tom for the last minute shuffle of his diary to give him the chance of taking his test.
All the best for the future Stefan from Tom your Xpert driving instructor in Goole and everyone at Xpert Driver Training.

See France test-fire an M51 strategic missile into the Atlantic
By Christina Mackenzie
France successfully test-fired the M51.2 strategic ballistic missile on April 28 from its Biscarosse test site. (Courtesy of the French Armed Forces Ministry)
PARIS — The French DGA military procurement agency successfully test-fired the M51.2 strategic ballistic missile on Wednesday morning from its Biscarosse test site on France's Atlantic coast.
The missile, central to France's nuclear deterrence policy, was not carrying a warhead and the test was undertaken "in the strict respect of France's international treaty commitments," according to a statement issued by the Ministry for the Armed Forces.
Although the M51.2 missile is already operational, it is regularly tested. Data and lessons learned from the tests are used for development of the next increment of the missile, the M51.3, which is scheduled for delivery to the French Navy in 2025. This version should have a range several hundred kilometers beyond the capacity of the M51.2 and will equip the four third-generation, nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines that will replace the Le Triomphant class from 2035.
The missile was followed along its flight path by the DGA's missile test team until it landed in the North Atlantic "several hundred kilometers from any coastline."
Florence Parly, minister for the Armed Forces, said in the statement that she was satisfied with the test and "heartily congratulated" staff from the ministry, from the CEA atomic and alternative energy agency, and the companies who all participated in the test.
The 54 tonne (60 ton) M51 is the key component of the French Strategic Ocean Force. It is a three-stage, sea-land strategic ballistic missile carried aboard the four French Le Triomphant class submarines. Each missile can carry six to 10 independently targetable TN 75 thermonuclear warheads.
The prime contractor for the program is ArianeGroup, responsible for upstream research, design, development and production of the missiles, the land-based operating infrastructure and the command and control system aboard the submarines. The company is also responsible for in-service support and end-of-life disposal. ArianeGroup works with 140 suppliers on this program, but overall more than 900 companies are involved.
