Mercedes dreams of reuniting with her daughter and grandchildren.
She fled violence in El Salvador.
"I am a single mom. I have always worked really hard to support my children. They are good children – they go to church, they study and they have always helped me with my work. My youngest son (17) wants to study to become a nurse. He likes helping people. Javier is now working as a construction worker. He wants to make money so we can get our own house. I am not afraid of working. I have worked all my life, and I am good at buying and selling things. I had a business in my house, selling clothes. I would love to start my own business in Mexico.
Over the past two years, UNHCR and the dedicated staff who run shelters have noticed a changing profile in the type of asylum-seeker arriving and in need of help. Once it was primarily young, single men and women, but increasingly we see whole families or single mothers with children.

In 2015 still an experimental contribution to the Vienna Design Week, in 2016 part of the main course: champagne buckets by Alexandre Echasseriau for Wiener Silber Manufactur.
The recipe for a successful design festival? Tike five ingredients, mix them up fresh and serve them lovingly garnished. Ready to go! How good the concoction then tastes can be tested each year in Vienna at the "Vienna Design Week". The 10th edition, which runs till this Sunday, certainly passed the good-taste-test. We glanced over the chefs' shoulders and reveal the recipe to you.
A design festival needs the right venue. Because the latter must be more than just a hopefully beautiful backdrop in which the festival is then staged as if it were a theater play. The venue must inspire the festival, must provide extraordinary places, and ask questions. Vienna is almost ideal in these regards. Unlike many other European capitals, Vienna is not completely gentrified, meaning that there is space for experiments: On the one hand, you will come across empty stores and buildings that have not been modernized. On the other, many a long-standing workshop or business outlet has survived (The Partners), for example one of Austria's last copperplate printing houses, at the heart of the 1st District with a view of Prada and Louis Vuitton. The former exhibition halls of a cabinetmaker in the 5th District serve this year as the festival headquarters, meaning the primary venue for it. The headquarters are always located in the "Focus District", which changes each year but where activities tend to be concentrated (® The Concept). There's another great practical thing about Vienna, its size: The city is small enough to enable you to easily view all the festival events, but no so small as toe seem provincial.
Bang at the entrance to the festival headquarters, visitors are jarred awake by the Pop graphics by Brit duo Morag Myerscough.
The stucco was already there, the line of text was ingeniously added by Teehaus Demmers for its salon at the festival headquarters.
It is also important to have a face that symbolizes the festival. In the form of Director Lilli Hollein, the Designweek again has the perfect solution. A graduate of design, Hollein not only founded the Festival back in 2007 together with Tulga Beyerle and Thomas Geisler but to this day is the driving force and smart mind behind it. During the festival she seems to be as good as ubiquitous, present at the opening of course, at the awards ceremonies, the press tour, the cocktail, the talks and the exhibitions. Wherever you spot Hollein complete with her striking black glasses, there is the Vienna Design Week. As the curator, she also guarantees superb contents. During a discussion on the "Paths of the Passion" (® The Concept) Barbara Kamler-Wild of Wiener Silber Manufactur says quite openly how projects for the festival had to be revised because Hollein was not totally convinced by an interim presentation.
Omnipresent at the Vienna Design Week: co-founder and director Lilli Hollein, here at the opening.
And a big Hallo: the Vienna Design Week opening party at the festival headquarters in the 5th District.
Perhaps the greatest strength of the Vienna Design Week is its lean concept. The program is divided into various formats, each of which sets a clear substantive focus. With "Urban Work" (® The City), for example, the festival is realizing several projects in line with committed "social design". This year, among others designers Johanna Dehio and Valentina Karga together with refugees and inhabitants of the Margareten District are making cooking wares and table stoves from clay. While at work on the idyllic wastelands, people get talking, and then they cook together using the new pots. The "Hostland" format, by contrast, brings international ideas to bear, this year from the neighboring Czech Republic. Well worth seeing the exhibition "Generation" – there the Okolo collective present young Czech design. Alongside beautiful luminaires, vases and products, Okolo serves up exhibition texts that give many an insight into how the young designers work.
Outdoor integration: Designers Johanna Dehio and Valentina Karga make pottery and cook for the entire duration of the festival with neighbors and refugees from the 5th District. And it all ends in a festive meal.
Bohemian glass: The Okolo collective curated an exhibition of young designers from this year's guest country, the Czech Republic.
The classic format is the "Paths of the Passion". Here, designer together with local crafts workshops can experiment. Austrian graphic designers Studio ES had copperplate printers Wolfgang Schön (® The City) produce black-and-white collages using a variety of different printing techniques. Part of the idea is to discover the enchanted rooms with the printing presses, the inks, rollers and knives – and thus an almost extinct craft. This year, the "Paths of the Passion" also take visitors to a piano workshop and to a manufacturer of illuminated ads and signs. At Neon Kunze there are not just fluorescent lamps in all manners of colors and shapes on show, as on the walls hang real hunting trophies, water buffaloes and gazelles. The designers from Eindhoven's Studio rENs were inspired by the strange surroundings to experiment with red neon light. The example of the "Paths of the Passion" highlight one thrust of the concept: The festival is meant to be sustainable, no hot air, but instead a catalyst for new ideas. For the anniversary year, the team commissioned a scholarly study, which confirmed that the plan functions – it proves in very practical terms what effect is achieved by "Paths of the Passion" corporations (® The Partners) such as Wiener Silber Manufactur. The company's lines also now feature several products that evolved from experiments for Designweek.
Bright sign: The two designers from Eindhoven's rENs have experimented with red neon for the Paths of Passion.
Nail and depth: Studio ES joined up with copperplate printers at Kupferdruck Anstalt Schön to explore the limits of various printing techniques.
It seems obvious that a small festival team cannot on its own powerlift such a large project as the Designweek. The festival needs partners, institutional and commercial ones. The festival's extensive program is largely based on offerings from colleagues from the cultural world, the off-spaces and business. Formats such as the "Paths of the Passion" (® The Concept) would simply not be possible without committed companies. Such as Glasmanufaktur Lobmeyr, along since the beginning, and its MD Leonid Rath, who really appreciates the interaction with designers: "They hold up a mirror to you. You learn a lot about the meaning of the company in today's world," he comments during the "Paths of the Passion" talk. "In other words, we're nurturing the tradition of renewal." Crystals specialist Swarovski also does its bit: This year not just with the sparkling "Prologue" installation by Frederikson Stallard in the stairwell at Schloss Belvedere; Nadja Swarovski also bestowed the "Swarovski Design Medal", a new prize that recognizes the contribution of a particular designer to the Vienna Design Week. The first to receive the distinction was Viennese duo Mischer'Traxler, one of the lodestars of the Austrian design world.
This pairing for the "Paths of the Passion" already has its own history: Lobmeyr MD Leonid Rath (on the l.) and designer Martino Gamper presenting their collaboration.
Viennese duo Mischer'Traxler were the proud winners of the very first Swarovski Design Medal.
Now aged ten, the Vienna Design Week is itself now part of the history of Viennese design and craftsmanship. The rich tradition (® The City) is frequently to be sensed in the projects, needless to say in the "Paths of the Passion", but also in many exhibitions and events run by partners. One real discovery, for example, is the furniture and luminaires made by Austrian architect Adolf Krischanitz, who takes stock of his over 30 years' design output at Galerie MAM Mario Mauroner (® The Partners). A recurrent theme of his is bentwood. The Duo Zerunianundweisz, by contrast, comes up with new shapes and functions for cast vessels and cutlery, on show in the festival headquarters. And anyone who does not have the full history of Viennese arts and crafts before their eyes, can jog their memory by checking out the marvelous collection at Museum für angewandte Kunst.
So much for the recipe and thanks to it year after year, the Vienna Design Week has been a real fixture in the event calendar. Interesting to note, perhaps, that there are ingredients Lilli Hollein and her team do not use: Star designers, fair hustle-and-bustle, trend rumors, etc. And after a long weekend in Vienna one thing is abundantly clear. No one misses such ingredients.
Designs by a grand old master of architecture: Galerie MAM Mario Mauroner in the 1st District presented furniture and luminaires by Adolf Krischanitz.

R&D Prague
Siemens Gamesa gains from a successful cost-effective consulting model
It is no secret that many hi-tech companies are under increased pressure to meet the stringent cost and hourly rate requirements of their projects.
It is no secret that many hi-tech companies are under increased pressure to meet their projects' stringent cost and hourly rate requirements. This motivated Siemens Gamesa's Offshore Equipment Engineering department to enter into an agreement with R&D in early 2020. It was hoped that a Danish technical project manager and a team of engineers in Prague would arrive at an efficient model that would also be economically viable.
R&D has had an office in Prague for several years. Their team of employees in the Czech capital has used their engineering expertise to various projects in numerous fields, including design, construction, calculation, and 'loads and controls.' R&D has settled on an arrangement whereby a Danish project manager is the single point of contact between the customer and a team of around five engineers in Prague. This is working very well, and the set-up was something Siemens Gamesa was keen to trial.
"Our aim was to save costs. We believe that the more creative and innovative work should take place in Denmark, close to Siemens Gamesa. The more standardized, repetitive tasks, on the other hand, can be carried out in countries where expenses are lower. However, just because we're interested in saving money does not mean that we're compromising on quality", explains Maximilian Kosmale, Team Lead Mechanical, and Structural Engineering, Siemens Gamesa.
Good communication is essential for success
To ensure that communication between Siemens Gamesa and R&D ran smoothly, the collaboration was launched on the premise that all contact to the Prague engineers would be through R&D's Danish technical project manager, Kasper Næsby Frederiksen. Kosmale says, "It's important for us to have an R&D Technical Project Manager (TPM) in our office. Naturally, costs should be kept low, but things have to work, too. It's essential that the TPM is at hand."
As the cooperation and tasks progressed, it became apparent that, in practice, it made more sense to depart slightly from this strict line of communication. "To begin with, the idea was that our engineers wouldn't speak to the team in Prague at all. But we've now relaxed this approach slightly, and they're in touch when there's a need to answer technical questions. However, all communication on delivery and new tasks must be through R&D's TPM," explains Kosmale.
The Prague consultants include both experienced and young engineers. The team worked well together, and they were soon up and running on their own. Siemens Gamesa has been extremely satisfied with the team's high level of technical expertise. "The arrangement was that R&D's TPM would conduct the first review of the material from Prague, and we would undertake the second review. Apart from the usual challenges of a new set-up, our team has not found any problems. In general, delivered projects have been of high quality," Kosmale says.
We have no plans to stop cooperating with R&D and their team in Prague. We may scale things up or down, depending on the volume of work, but in the long term, we would entertain the possibility of having another team on board.
Maximilian Kosmale
Team Lead Mechanical and Structural Engineering, Siemens Gamesa
Potential for future cooperation
Both R&D and Siemens Gamesa found the trial run of this type of consultancy work to be an excellent experience. "It was a pleasure working with the Siemens Gamesa team. Expertise and mutual understanding helped promote an innovative, dynamic process, enabling us to arrive at the best possible solutions in good time," says Frederiksen, R&D's Technical Project Manager for this collaboration.
Siemens Gamesa, therefore, sees potential in continuing, and possibly expanding, the cooperation in the future.
"We have no plans to stop cooperating with R&D and their team in Prague. We may scale things up or down, depending on the volume of work, but in the long term, we would entertain the possibility of having another team on board. Right now, we're running two teams with two suppliers; we could imagine this being increased to three teams. The model works, that's for sure," concludes Kosmale.
R&D is happy with the Prague engineers
R&D has similar cooperation arrangements with other customers and also uses the engineers in Prague for their own turnkey test projects.
The location in Prague is ideal because the level of education in the Czech Republic is high, and there is a strong international student contingent. Communication and cultural understanding between the countries are therefore excellent. The fact that this is an EU-based partnership is also a clear advantage, in that our engineers can be called to Denmark at a day's notice if necessary.

A Walk through Northampton
3 Comments on A Walk through Northampton
It's not often when a family of five with three kids five years and under decide on the spur of the moment, on a crisp Saturday morning in November, to drive nearly two hours for a history lesson.
That's exactly what we did yesterday. And it was completely worth it.
Around 8am, my wife, half serious, half joking, said, "Let's go to New Haven" (in Connecticut, where Yale is located). A two hour and 40 minute drive—a bit ambitious. I suggested we drive to Northampton, MA, a bit closer. That's where Jonathan Edwards lived and ministered from 1726-1750. As a pastor and someone who has read and benefited from the life and ministry of Edwards, I've wanted to visit for some time. "Really? Are you serious?" Bailey, our five year-old, asked with a hesitant, yet anticipatory smile. Yes! Fifty minutes later, snacks were packed, all were dressed and in the van. Day trip here we come.
We spent the entire afternoon walking (with a little bit of driving…lots of little legs in our crew) around Northampton. Relive the journey with us here.
Historic Northampton Museum and Education Center
We were clueless about where to go and what to see. We thought this museum was a good place to start. It's small and quiet with no visible Edwards artifacts. "I'm a fan of Edwards. Is there anything you can point us to?" I asked the curator. She showed me two original printed copies of sermons from Edwards. Bingo.
Below, on the left is his farewell sermon after he was dismissed (i.e. fired—yes, Jonathan Edwards was fired by his congregation). It was preached in 1750 and published in 1751. On the right is A Divine and Supernatural Light (which I had the pleasure of reading a few years ago). It was preached in 1734.
The curator then showed us a guide for a walking tour throughout the town. Bingo #2.
The Bridge Street Cemetery
We began at the end. On resurrection ground.
Jonathan and Sarah Edwards are buried at Princeton Cemetery in New Jersey, but their cenotaphs are located here. You can see the surname "Edwards" at the bottom of the large monument (left). It has their names and birth/death dates on the front and the names and dates of their eleven children on the other three sides. Jonathan Edwards' individual cenotaph is on the right.
There were other graves we wanted to see. I couldn't find Solomon Stoddard, Edwards' grandfather, the prominent Northampton pastor who preached at the church before Edwards. Carly, not even realizing who she had found at the time, took this photo. She said later that she had a sense, probably given by God, that "this was an important man." She was right.
We found the gravesite of David Brainerd, a missionary to Native Americans, who died at age 29. His stone could have said, "Here lies a man who did not waste his life."
We told our kids today, as we often do, that those who know Jesus will rise with new bodies someday. On Resurrection Day. As I walked this cemetery, set in the birthplace of the Great Awakening, I couldn't help but wonder, How many of these souls first trusted in Jesus during that revival? How many of their family came to Jesus in the years following? How glorious will the celebration be in this place when Jesus returns?
On to the meeting house.
Meetinghouse Hill
The Meetinghouse is where the town gathered for all sorts of things, including worship. The First Meetinghouse stood from 1655-1661. Edwards preached in the Second and Third Meetinghouses. The Fourth Meetinghouse was destroyed by fire. Pictured below, still standing today, is the "Fifth Meetinghouse," built in 1878.
Walking in to the house, we stood on a semi-circle step (you can see it in the picture on the left) which was one of the original steps of the Third Meetinghouse. Sunday after Sunday, Edwards walked over this slab as he went to preach the gospel to his congregation.
Inside, a memorial tablet of Edwards that was unveiled in 1900.
Near the front of the room, just to the right of the pulpit, rested a door with several notes tacked to it. They are affirmations of what "I do not believe [in]." To say that these notes are in this location is ironic is a massive understatement. Edwards, who proclaimed the sovereignty, supremacy, and goodness of God in all things (including evil), the definite atonement of Christ on the cross, and the judgment of God on unrepentant sinners, would have been appalled.
It grieved and angered our hearts, too.
On to the Edwards' home.
Edwards' Homestead
The Edwards' actual home no longer exists. The adjacent street was renamed Edwards Square in his honor (top). The homestead was made up of dozens of acres on King Street in Northampton. A Catholic church (more irony) now stands where his home was located (bottom left and center).
Across the street was a cafe and bakery. It had been a long day. We needed a snack. Jonathan probably never had the pleasure of enjoying a chocolate chip cookie. We enjoyed a few for him.
On to The Edwards church.
The Edwards Church
Founded in 1833 when the number of people outgrew the First Congregational Church's "meetinghouse," this church was named in honor of Edwards. The current version was built in 1958 (left). On the side of the building is a stone tile of Edwards, one of four tiles depicting scenes of early religious life in the area (right).
We had to walk along Main Street to get here. I later told Carly that while we walked, "I felt alone. Like we—the five of us—were alone." It's difficult to describe. We are heirs of the theology and heart of Edwards. It became evident on our walk that Northampton, the cradle of the Great Awakening, is not. Carly, in her wise, clear, and concise way articulated it: "I know what you mean. It felt oppressive."
One more stop. On to the library.
Forbes Library
In the rear of the library was another semi-circle stone—a granite doorstep from the Edwards' homestead.
After Edwards was dismissed from his church, he became a missionary to Native Americans. I'm no Edwards—not even close. But for me, as pastor and soon-to-be missionary in an area with many Native Americans, to have my family stand on the stoop that Jonathan and Sarah and their eleven children would have walked on hour after hour, day after day, was perhaps the most serene and wonderful moment of the day.
As we drove home in the dark, overlooking a faint orange and purple sunset hovering above the Berkshires, I said to Carly, "Today made him a bit more real to me. I'm thankful for that. I can't wait to meet him." She agreed.
And someday, on Resurrection Day, if not before, we will.

According to Digitimes this morning, Apple is laying the groundwork in the supply chain to launch three new iPhones in 2020 featuring OLED displays. The current flagship lineup offers OLED screens on iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, but the iPhone XR uses a lower-resolution LCD panel to save money.
This pattern is set to continue for the 2019 generation, but Apple will shake things up next year. The three 2020 iPhones will reportedly come in new screen sizes: 5.42-inch, 6.06-inch and 6.67-inch diagonally.
The Wall Street Journal had previously reported that Apple will switch to using OLED displays exclusively for its phone models from next year. What's particularly intriguing about the Digitimes report is the details about the new sizes.
All three of these purported iPhone screen sizes are new dimensions for the iPhone lineup. The 2018 and expected 2019 lineup features a 6.1-inch iPhone XR, a 5.8-inch iPhone XS, and a 6.46-inch iPhone XS Max.
The radically different sizes quoted in the report suggest major design changes for the phones. 6.67-inches would make for the largest iPhone ever, at least in terms of screen size. Depending on how Apple manages the glass bezel and borders, the physical size of the phone may not be that much bigger than today's iPhone XS Max.
The 6.06-inch OLED iPhone would be the most obvious example of an iPhone XR successor with the screen size is identical to the current iPhone XR. Apple reports the iPhone XR as a 6.1-inch display but if you read the fine print, it is actually rounding 6.06-inch up to the nearest tenth of an inch.
The switch from LCD to OLED would provide better contrast levels. OLED displays do not feature a backlight, which means they can turn off individual pixels independently, enabling them to show true shades of black.
The claims of a 5.42-inch model are particularly interesting as this is substantially smaller than the iPhone XS 5.8-inch display. The Digitimes report also claims that this model may use new screen manufacturing processes from LG or Samsung that aim to lower the component cost of the display.
Perhaps the 5.42-inch iPhone is the new 'low-end' flagship model with Apple returning to the 'smaller screen is cheaper' marketing strategy.
Digitimes has a patchy track record of accuracy, most recently claiming that Apple would release AirPower in late March, a week before the company announced the AirPower mat project had been cancelled altogether and would never ship. Information about iPhone panel suppliers is something that is firmly in Digitimes domain though. Apple readies the supply chain for its devices many years out, so it is not necessarily surprising that details about the next-generation phones are leaking out already.
For 2019, Apple will deliver iterative updates to the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR. The overall appearance of the 2019 iPhones is not expected to change much compared to 2018. Users will be able to charge their AirPods on the back of the 2019 iPhones. There will also be new camera upgrades including a dual-camera module as standard on the iPhone XR and a triple-lens option on some models. Apple will announce its trio of new phones in the fall, likely at a September media event.

Textbooks only exacerbate the problem, Duschl said. The doctrine of the Trinity is essential to our faith, without it there is no faith. His Holiness was not only a leader of the church, but also a leader of the world. Also, when you get burned out on some particular niche, you can always take a pause, switch to something else, and come back to it with a fresh perspective. Robinson gave some modalistic illustrations of the Trinity and said that Jakes has always held this position.
Now you got to do this thing. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. You can choose to tackle either class of problems. You can actually solve many of the same problems with either approach.
Finding the right sequence By the time students in high-performing countries learn how the eye functions, they have enough background knowledge to comprehend the complicated process. Fitz Gerald, from the Oct.
He also teaches that it is blasphemy if you don't believe that Christians are gods. It is by the stripes of Jesus that we are healed, delivered and made whole. You need to sow it and receive it in this year.
The river provided valuable transportation for the fur trade between European emigrants and the Pawnee and Oto Indians. That gets lonely after a while. Believe God for supernatural resurrection harvest in your life!
However, that one man had three parts. You can't even explain how a brown cow eats green grass and produces white milk. You can explore some really interesting paradoxes this way and find new truths beyond them. Talks about Isaac sowing a seed and receiving a fold return in that same year. The pastor says his income comes from his media enterprises, not from church tithes.
But what if they could bond with you that closely? The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. The majority of high-performing countries include only seven of these topics in their third-grade curricula. She has Revelation Knowledge from the Lord. If you present more facets for people to connect with, you can attract a great variety of connections as well as more compatible connections.
Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? It works well too, but the mindset and framework are different if you want to succeed with it. By resisting your own nichification, you could enjoy a more varied and arguably richer social life vs. So when a Jehovah's Witness tells you that Jesus is not God we should just be silent and accept them? This Holy Spirit is called the Comforter.
Jakes says it's foolishness to argue about the Godhead! And the roof was leaking and everything and one night I got up and started walking around in my house and I spoke to the house. But, if you want something beyond what you have ever seen, shout increase! And you look like I'll never get up and you look like I'm bound to the ghetto.
If he believes that the Trinity as defined in the Athanasian Creed is not scriptural, why not just say so publicly? Name any topic you can think of, and I can link it to personal growth.
His life was an example everyone can learn from. And God will bring it to pass in your life. Many people have mixed feelings about it, and rightly so. All we know is that He's Father in creation, Son in redemption, and Holy Ghost in regeneration and it's all good.
But that doesn't mean it's free to produce. Jakes may lead a Dallas mega-church, but that's not all he does. It does work to a certain extent. He speaks of different functions the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit perform, but then he clarifies that he does not believe in three Gods, by which it is fairly clear he means Persons. Mile Wide, Mile Deep I prefer the mile wide, ye ji won and kim jong kook dating mile deep approach.
Her knowledge is a mile wide and an inch deep. In some places it is a mile wide and three-quarters of an inch deep. It covers a good deal of ground, but is not deep. You can dig more and deeper wells if you keep your motivation high.
Having come to know Who He is, then we begin to deal with the Trinity, which I believe is a very complex issue. This is your year of destiny.
And it shows up in procrastination, lifeless work, and frequent fantasizing about doing something else. The same is true with doctrine. Motivation is another key factor. My business is a lot of fun to run because on any given day, week, or month, I can tackle any topic that interests me. There's an anointing I believe, there's going to be a supernatural anointing through the word of God.
But, I just want you to know house, I don't believe you! So just shut up arguing about it and say it's a mystery. This is not a trivial matter, why will he not be clear and define the terms rather than mislead by his of semantics?
My first question would be, the Trinity would be defined as one God Who's revealed Himself in three distinct Persons, each co-equal and co-eternal. At first glance, this difference would seem to indicate that our eight- and nine-year-olds are receiving an advanced science education compared to their peers elsewhere in the world.
Stop begging for what you're entitled to. Doctrinally, we are very shallow. These teachers focus on the main idea of the lesson at the beginning of class and make clear connections to the activities. If all you want is what you had don't say that anymore. Many people do not understand if you're going to receive something from the Lord you have to be prepared to invest something!

Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare Video Reveals Always Online Experience
By Selina | February 24, 2014
Despite the backlash that EA faced with games like SimCity, it seems that it hasn't quite learned its lesson. PopCap Interactive's Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare seemingly doesn't allow you to play offline, according to a new video for the Xbox 360 version which reveals you must be connected to Xbox Live to play its game modes.
How bad is it? You can't even go into the Options without connecting online. The offline split-screen mode is limited to the Xbox One, but it may not be offline as we suspected. The only explanation that's been offered is that when micro-transactions are eventually introduced, they can be stored on the server rather than locally. Though micro-transactions haven't been confirmed, PopCap hasn't ruled them out.
Then again, it could just be the Xbox 360 version. We'll find out for sure when the Xbox One and Xbox 360 versions release on February 25th, so stay tuned for more information.

"It is cheaper to fly to Istanbul from Yerevan": Azerbaijani MPs complain about expensive tickets
"A flight from Yerevan to Istanbul is already operating, and, in our money, it costs 80 manats [about $ 47]. I am waiting for the opening of the Zangezur corridor, I will go to Yerevan by car, and from there I will fly to Istanbul". This the statement of MP Agil Abbas, which he made during the discussion of the draft law "On Tourism" in the Azerbaijani parliament. Members of the Milli Mejlis complained about the high cost of air tickets.

Azerbaijani Ilisu village: how locals struggle to develop tourism with no state support
The bill "On tourism" was discussed in the Azerbaijani parliament today. Some MPs listed the factors that hinder the development of tourism in the country. Many of them drew attention to the expensive flight tickets.
MP Agil Abbas said many MPs expressed their views on this matter:
"But will AZAL lower prices? No, it won't. A flight from Yerevan to Istanbul is already operating and in our money it costs 80 manats [about $ 47]. I am waiting for the opening of the Zangezur corridor, I will go to Yerevan by car, and from there I will fly to Istanbul.
This issue must be taken seriously. The words of the deputies remain in the air. Maybe we will not return to this question, if no one listens to us `and let AZAL will continue to raise prices".
"In order to stay for two days and one night in our hotels, I have to spend my monthly salary. The issue of prices must be resolved unequivocally. I ask the speaker of the parliament to intervene in this matter", Abbas summed up his words.
According to MP Musa Guliyev, the conservative visa system remains one of the barriers to the development of tourism in the country:
"Only citizens of 10 countries can come to Azerbaijan without visas. At the same time, in Georgia this number is 100, in Uzbekistan – more than 80, Kazakhstan – more than 70, in Turkey – more than 90".
"On the other hand, there are unfavorable market conditions. Air fares also hinder the arrival of tourists. Unfavorable market conditions do not allow for expanding flight routes, attracting low-cost airlines and increasing the number of flights.
Despite the existence of several international airports in Azerbaijan, they are not used to create direct air links.
The third reason is the disadvantage for tourists of the infrastructure of land border checkpoints. In order to meet the needs of tourists, to increase their number, it is necessary to organize the issuance of visas there, reduce the waiting time, optimize the border crossing procedure, attract more human and technical resources", said Musa Guliyev.
"We have repeatedly raised the issue of the high cost of air tickets. In this issue, we are losing to Georgia and other countries. If we lose, then there will be no competition. Coming here from other countries and departing from here turned into torment", said another MP Fazil Mustafa.
The chairman of the parliamentary committee of culture Ganira Pashayeva also drew attention to the unprecedentedly high cost of air tickets:
"Why is a flight from fraternal Turkey to other countries cheaper in comparison with Azerbaijan? It is not related to Turkey. This is due to the relevant organizations in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan's conservative visa system also discourages visitors.
At regional airports, we must apply lower prices for international flights. There are tourists who cross our borders by land. Simplified procedures also need to be introduced there.
I was recently in Uzbekistan. There they told me that they could get to Azerbaijan in 10 hours. In other words, coming to Azerbaijan turned into a trip to America. The issues of tourism development must be approached in a comprehensive manner".

Various business organization or government bodies are enhancing their decision making capabilities using data warehouse. For government bodies, data warehouse provides a means by enabling policy making to be formulated much easier based on available data such as survey-based services data. In this paper we present a survey-based service data with the design and implementation of a Data Warehouse framework for data mining and business intelligence reporting. In the design of the data warehouse, we developed a multidimensional Data Model for the creation of multiple data marts and design of an ETL process for populating the data marts from the data source. The development of multiple data marts will enable easier report generation by identifying common dimension amongst the data marts. The cross-join capabilities of the data marts through common dimensions, demonstrate the ability to easily drill across the data marts for cross data analysis and reporting. In addition, we also have incorporate data quality checking on the data source as well as data detection rules to filter out unmatched data schema and data range from being stored in the data warehouse for analysis.
Academics and practitioners have a common interest in the continuing development of methods and computer applications that support or perform knowledge-intensive engineering tasks. Operations management dysfunctions and lost production time are problems of enormous magnitude that impact the performance and quality of industrial systems as well as their cost of production. Association rule mining is a data mining technique used to find out useful and invaluable information from huge databases. This work develops a better conceptual base for improving the application of association rule mining methods to extract knowledge on operations and information management. The emphasis of the paper is on the improvement of the operations processes. The application example details an industrial experiment in which association rule mining is used to analyze the manufacturing process of a fully integrated provider of drilling products. The study reports some new interesting results with data mining and knowledge discovery techniques applied to a drill production process. Experiment's results on real-life data sets show that the proposed approach is useful in finding effective knowledge associated to dysfunctions causes.
We propose an amoeba-based knowledge discovery or data mining system, that is implemented using an amoeboid organism and an associated control system. The amoeba system can be considered as one of the new non-traditional computing paradigms, and it can perform intriguing, massively parallel computing that utilizes the chaotic behavior of the amoeba .Our system is a hybrid of a traditional knowledge-based unit implemented on an ordinary computer with an amoeba-based search unit and an optical control unit interface. The solutions in our system can have one-to-one mapping to solutions of other well-known areas such as neural networks and genetic algorithms. This mapping feature allows the amoeba to use and apply techniques developed in other areas. Various forms of knowledge discovery processes are introduced. Also, a new type of knowledge discovery technique, called "autonomous metaproblem solving," is discussed.
Knowledge management (KM) and data mining (DM) have become more important today, however, there are few comprehensive researches and categorization schemes to discuss the characteristics for both of them. Using a bibliometric approach, this paper analyzes KM and DM research trends, forecasts and citations from 1989 to 2009 by locating headings ''knowledge management'' and ''data mining'' in topics in the SSCI database. The bibliometric analytical technique was used to examine these two topics in SSCI journals from 1989 to 2009, we found 1393 articles with KM and 1181 articles with DM. This paper implemented and classified KM and DM articles using the following eight categories—publication year, citation, country/territory, document type, institute name, language, source title and subject area— for different distribution status in order to explore the differences and how KM and DM technologies have developed in this period and to analyze KM and DM technology tendencies under the above result. Also, the paper performs the K–S test to check whether the distribution of author article production follows Lotka's law. The research findings can be extended to investigate author productivity by analyzing variables such as chronological and academic age, number and frequency of previous publications, access to research grants, job status, etc. In such a way characteristics of high, medium and low publishing activity of authors can be identified. Besides, these findings will also help to judge scientific research trends and understand the scale of development of research in KM and DM through comparing the increases of the article author.
How has the interdisciplinary data mining field been practiced in Network and Systems Management (NSM)? In Science and Technology, there is a wide use of data mining in areas like bioinformatics, genetics, Web and more recently astroinformatics. However, the application in NSM has been limited and inconsiderable. In this article, we provide an account of how data mining has been applied in managing networks and systems for the past four decades, presumably since its birth. We look into the field's applications in the key NSM activities – discovery, monitoring, analysis, reporting and domain knowledge acquisition. In the end, we discuss our perspective on the issues that are considered critical for the effective application of data mining in the modern systems which are characterized by heterogeneity and high dynamism .
Database preprocessing is very important to utilize memory usage, compression is one of the preprocessing needed to reduce the memory required to store and load data for processing, the method of compression introduced in this paper was tested, by using proposed examples to show the effect of repetition in database, as well as the size of database, the results showed that as the repetition increased the compression ratio will be increased. The compression is one of the important activities for data preprocessing before implementing data mining. Data mining methods such as Na¨ıve Bayes, Nearest Neighbor and Decision Tree are tested. The implementation of the three methods showed that Na¨ıve Bayes method is effectively used when the data attributes are categorized, and it can be used successfully in machine learning. The Nearest Neighbor is most suitable when the data attributes are continuous or categorized. The third method tested is the Decision Tree, it is a simple predictive method implemented by using simple rule methods in data classification. The success of data mining implementation depends on the completeness of database, that represented by data warehouse, that must be organized by using the important characteristics of data warehouse.
Insurance companies lose millions of dollars each year through fraudulent claims, largely because they do not have a way to easily determine which claims are legitimate and which may be fraudulent. To ensure that adjusters target claims which have the greatest likelihood of adjustment, many insurance companies have incorporated IBM SPSS data mining into their investigating and auditing processes. This report describes how data mining techniques can enable you to improve accuracy and save time, money and resources.
Real life data sets are often interspersed with noise, making the subsequent data mining process difficult. The task of the classifier could be simplified by eliminating attributes that are deemed to be redundant for classification, as the retention of only pertinent attributes would reduce the size of the dataset and subsequently allow more comprehensible analysis of the extracted patterns or rules. In this article, a new hybrid approach comprising of two conventional machine learning algorithms has been proposed to carry out attribute selection. Genetic algorithms (GAs) and support vector machines (SVMs) are integrated effectively based on a wrapper approach. Specifically, the GA component searches for the best attribute set by applying the principles of an evolutionary process. The SVM then classifies the patterns in the reduced datasets, corresponding to the attribute subsets represented by the GA chromosomes. The proposed GA- SVM hybrid is subsequently validated using datasets obtained from the UCI machine learning repository. Simulation results demonstrate that the GA-SVM hybrid produces good classification accuracy and a higher level of consistency that is comparable to other established algorithms. In addition, improvements are made to the hybrid by using a correlation measure between attributes as a fitness measure to replace the weaker members in the population with newly formed chromosomes. This injects greater diversity and increases the overall fitness of the population. Similarly, the improved mechanism is also validated on the same data sets used in the first stage. The results justify the improvements in the classification accuracy and demonstrate its potential to be a good classifier for future data mining purposes.
How has the interdisciplinary data mining field been practiced in Network and Systems Management (NSM)? In Science and Technology, there is a wide use of data mining in areas like bioinformatics, genetics, Web and more recently astroinformatics. However, the application in NSM has been limited and inconsiderable. In this article, we provide an account of how data mining has been applied in managing networks and systems for the past four decades, presumably since its birth. We look into the field's applications in the key NSM activities – discovery, monitoring, analysis, reporting and domain knowledge acquisition. In the end, we discuss our perspective on the issues that are considered critical for the effective application of data mining in the modern systems which are characterized by heterogeneity and high dynamism.

Conservation for the Anthropocene Ocean: Interdisciplinary Science in Support of Nature and People emphasizes strategies to better connect the practice of marine conservation with the needs and priorities of a growing global human population. It conceptualizes nature and people as part of shared ecosystems, with interdisciplinary methodologies and science-based applications for coupled sustainability. A central challenge facing conservation is the development of practical means for addressing the interconnectedness of ecosystem health and human well-being, advancing the fundamental interdisciplinary science that underlies conservation practice, and implementing this science in decisions to manage, preserve, and restore ocean ecosystems. Though humans have intentionally and unintentionally reshaped their environments for thousands of years, the scale and scope of human influence upon the oceans in the Anthropocene is unprecedented. Ocean science has increased our knowledge of the threats and impacts to ecological integrity, yet the unique scale and scope of changes increases uncertainty about responses of dynamic socio-ecological systems. Thus, to understand and protect the biodiversity of the ocean and ameliorate the negative impacts of ocean change on people, it is critical to understand human beliefs, values, behaviors, and impacts. Conversely, on a human-dominated planet, it is impossible to understand and address human well-being and chart a course for sustainable use of the oceans without understanding the implications of environmental change for human societies that depend on marine ecosystems and resources. This work therefore presents a timely, needed, and interdisciplinary approach to the conservation of our oceans.
Helps marine conservation scientists apply principles from oceanography, ecology, anthropology, economics, political science, and other natural and social sciences to manage and preserve marine biodiversity
Facilitates understanding of how and why social and environmental processes are coupled in the quest to achieve healthy and sustainable oceans
Uses a combination of expository material, practical approaches, and forward-looking theoretical discussions to enhance value for readers as they consider conservation research, management and planning

New Recommendation
WFHA Members,
It's that time of year again and we are excited to open WFHA registration for the 2019-2020 hockey season on Monday, July 1st. The upcoming season brings some new and exciting announcements.
In an effort to improve our hockey program for our players, we are implementing some new programs to our 2019-2020 season:
Squirt & 10U In-House League
WFHA will be offering all Squirt and 10U players an in-house program to supplement their travel schedules. The in-house league will have 2 tiers (4 teams in tier 1, 6 teams in tier 2) and play an additional 12 games against each other on Sunday nights. This in-house league will also be in addition to the regular season games, at no extra cost, with its own jerseys. These will be similar to the ones the mites and termites use from Play it Again. There are many benefits to having an in-house league and I am excited to share this with everyone at our level meetings in September.
Recreational league
WFHA will be offering a new program for players who wish to continue to play hockey but without the commitment of three practices a week and a full weekend of games. This non-competitive league will be co-ed and a fun way to help us grow the game and try to get as many kids trying out this great game as possible. The Rec league will feature three age groups, have four practices throughout the course of the season and play games on Saturday mornings. We are still working with Fargo and Moorhead to put this league together so please look for that registration soon if you think this is a good route for your family/player.
Bantam AA & Peewee AA Teams
We are offering AA teams for our top players in an effort to have them playing enhanced competition, tournaments and to get the advanced level of training they need from our Association. We had a great informational meeting, with a great turn out, regarding our AA teams in May and we will discuss it further at our level meetings in September.
First Year Free*
To continue to Grow the Game, first year Termites will receive a $150 discount, which makes their first season free!* If it is your first year of hockey at any of the other levels and you are new to USA Hockey, you will also receive a $150 discount.*
*Volunteer and fundraiser requirements are still required for players at every level.
New Stampede Travel Jerseys
For players at the Squirt/10U and above levels, new game jerseys have been ordered for the upcoming season. Thank you for voting on your favorites and I look forward to the big reveal when they come in!
Other Changes and improvements
We are working hard this summer to improve everything from last season. I am making practice templates that teams will follow, all levels will have certain aspects of the game to focus on during the season to ensure they have the right tools in place for their upcoming levels. Coaches will have on-ice meetings, where at least one coach from each team needs to attend, every two weeks to go over new drills/concepts that they need to be working on. We will continue to improve our goalie recruiting and training by implementing Sunday night camps, playing ½ games, goalie mirror and cameras to help them. Also, position specific practices, skating clubs and more.
I can't wait to get started and look forward to seeing everyone around the rink soon.

Introducing PeeWee AA and Bantam AA
West Fargo Hockey has an opportunity to introduce AA hockey into our Association at the PeeWee and Bantam levels. This type of program is an exciting addition to our Association as it allows players at those levels to play within an elite level of competition.
There will be one team each at the PeeWee AA and Bantam AA level. These teams will be more demanding than the other ones at the A, B1 and B levels. Players will adhere to a stricter, more regimented practice and game schedule. There will be more games to play and more tournaments to participate in as well as a much more intense off ice program. Double A hockey also has a considerably higher price tag associated with it.
There will be a PARENTS ONLY, no kids please, informational meeting for guardians of PeeWee and Bantam players that are interested in this new program for the 2019-2020 season. This will take place at Vets 2 on Thursday, May 2 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Tryouts, cost, travel, tournaments, leagues and coaches are among the items to be discussed, as well as any other questions you may have. We appreciate your interest and look forward to seeing you next week!
Stampede Stride-Right Skating
There is a great opportunity for hockey treadmill and stride conditioning from local instructor, Zachery Boor.
Zach is from Fargo and played hockey for Davies High School. He has coached PeeWee B1 for West Fargo as well as just graduating college at NDSU. He has previously worked at Sanford running their treadmill and would like to bring his knowledge to WFHA this year.
Benefits from treadmill training and stride conditioning include:
Improve adequate knee bend
lengthen and create a more powerful stride
staying conditioned in the off season
increased focus and development turning weaknesses into strengths
The treadmill training program will be level specific and open to boys and girls of all ages. At the lower level tiers it will start out with proper form, arm movement and returning strides to the body properly. For higher tiers Zach will focus on acceleration, resistance training and top-end speed. This is all done while using proper form. Each session will be tailored to the specific needs of the player.
Now the details:
-Please contact Zach directly for scheduling. He can be reached via email at zachery.boor@ndsu.edu or his phone number is 701-809-5533. Please attempt contact via PHONE first.
-Players will want to bring skates, helmet, gloves and stick.
-Sessions will be 30 minutes long, unless scheduled with Zach otherwise.
Pricing structure will be as follows:
1 Session: $28 5 Sessions: $115 10 Sessions $220
Checks need to be made to WFHA
The hockey treadmill is located upstairs at Vets 2. If you've never been up there, there are shooting tarps available to shoot at if your player would like to get some shots in towards the 10k Puck Challenge over the summer!! Come in early, stay after your session or meet a friend up there!!

Casio announces new compact cameras
By Kelly Turner
Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z450
Casio announced two new compact point-and-shoot cameras Tuesday, the Exilim Zoom EX-Z450 and Exilim Zoom EX-Z90.
Both cameras offer 12.1 megapixles of resolution and HD-quality video. The cameras are the first in the Casio lineup to feature a new Intelligent AF option that automatically identifies objects in a photo—such as pets, which are missed by standard face-detection systems—and adjusts the focus and exposure accordingly. The cameras also offer an improved Dynamic Photo feature which can detect a moving subject in one photo and place it in a different photo. Previous versions required multiple shots of the same scene. The new cameras can extract the subject from a single shot, so long as it's placed against a solid backdrop.
Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z90
The EX-Z450 offers a 4X zoom and mechanical image stabilization, while the EX-Z90 offers a 3X zoom with no image stabilization. The EX-Z450 also offers a slightly larger LCD (3 inches, compared to the EX-Z90's 2.7 inches) and better battery life.
The EX-Z450, which is available in a champagne color, will sell for $200. The EX-Z90 will sell for $150 and is available in pink and black. Both cameras will ship in October.


Comic fans know exactly how Thanos was responsible for killing Drax's family though it wasn't quite so straightforward in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now, Joe Russo has shared how 'Avengers: Infinity War' has indirectly revealed how it played out.
While it would become clear that Ronan was following the orders of Thanos by that point, we still didn't know exactly how or why these characters were murdered.
While it isn't clear how long this culling of planets was known internally at Marvel Studios, it is an easy jump to make as James Gunn likely didn't have this idea in mind when the script for 'Guardians of the Galaxy' was initially written.
It isn't clear why Ronan the Accuser was following Thanos but most likely, as there is a lot of Galaxy out there to purge half of, this was a task which The Mad Titan would delegate to his subordinates. I'm sure all of his generals in The Black Order likely carried out this same plan as well.
Maybe we'll see the groundwork for this kind of history between the two villains being laid out in 'Captain Marvel' next year.
Do you think Drax's planet had suffered the same fate as Gamora's? Does this further tie together 'Guardians of the Galaxy' into the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe through what was shown in 'Avengers: Infinity War'? Share your thoughts below, True Believers!

What causes herpes, cold sores, fever blisters, and herpes simplex type one? They all fall in the same category. Herpes dating websites is on the rise.
You might have had the virus for a long time and never had any symptoms. Others may not be as lucky though, for they frequently have cold sores, etc.
Herpes meaning is an infectious disease caused by herpes simplex virus 1. If you don't know what that is, I will write out the symptoms of herpes. Do you have a thin-closed pimple that keeps showing up at the same place, more likely at the bottom of the mouth, on your gums or your conjunctiva- the inside lining surface of the eyelid. It's likely to show up where the skin of the lining inside the eyelid and mucous membrane meet. It starts has a tiny little bump.
Then the bump changes to blister. After that discomfort kicks, there might be swollen around the bump, and you might have difficulty eating. Lastly, in about 3-9 days, you might see cold sores. If that was bad news, cold sores can last up to 3 weeks even though they typically only lasted 3-7 days. But wait, worst, cold sores can come with a fever and blisters. They are all caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1.
Yes, herpes sores hurt. You do get herpes muscle pain or just herpes pain. And we do have some famous people who have herpes. For example, Jessica Alba herpes, there is something out there really called chat room herpes, Ryan Braun herpes, and cara mengobati herpes.
Here are the immediate possible causes of some people infected of herpes.
Stress is a big cause.

Q: ST_DWithin: Why does query not use the Spatial Index? I want my query to output all street segments, that are within a distance of 20 meters of those segments which have the attribute clazz of 11 (motorways).
I have this query from a user on this site:
SELECT DISTINCT s.id, s.clazz
FROM berlin_2po_4pgr s
INNER JOIN berlin_2po_4pgr m
ON ST_DWithin(s.geom_way::geography, m.geom_way::geography, 20)
WHERE m.clazz = '11' AND s.clazz != '11';

I have a index:
CREATE INDEX gist_index_berlin_2po_4pgr ON berlin_2po_4pgr USING gist(geom_way);

The query takes a very long time (more than two minutes). Probably the reason is that the index isn't used:
"HashAggregate  (cost=8076781.04..8076781.13 rows=9 width=8)"
"  ->  Nested Loop  (cost=0.00..8076781.00 rows=9 width=8)"
"        Join Filter: (((s.geom_way)::geography && _st_expand((m.geom_way)::geography, 20::double precision)) AND ((m.geom_way)::geography && _st_expand((s.geom_way)::geography, 20::double precision)) AND _st_dwithin((s.geom_way)::geography, (m.geom_way)::g (...)"
"        ->  Seq Scan on berlin_2po_4pgr s  (cost=0.00..2267.43 rows=49871 width=101)"
"              Filter: (clazz <> 11)"
"        ->  Materialize  (cost=0.00..2270.24 rows=563 width=93)"
"              ->  Seq Scan on berlin_2po_4pgr m  (cost=0.00..2267.43 rows=563 width=93)"
"                    Filter: (clazz = 11)"

Why? The SRID is 4326, so unit is degrees. But the cast to geography changes the units to meters, right?
The output is correct, so unit can't be the problem.

A: You index is on geometry not geography and you are casting your geometry to geography.
If you want it to use an index, you need to add a geography index like so:
CREATE INDEX gist_geog_berlin_2po_4pgr ON berlin_2po_4pgr USING gist( (geom_way::geography) );

My name is Christophe, i'm from Belgium and 'im a web & .NET dev.
I come from the website kicklecubicle.com because i'm a big fan of this game.
I've the project to make a reboot of this Game with XNA framework.
I think you are a similar project in this forum. How far along are you in this ?
I can't say with any authority but I believe the project is dead. The members who were involved in it haven't posted here for years, so I have no idea if anything ever came of it.
At one point there was an idea to acquire the legal rights from Irem but they shut us down fairly hard. They also said they would take any legal action possible if they found us using the name or characters without their permission (which they had no intention of giving). They were kinda dicks in the emails we exchanged truth be told.
Good luck with your game! If you need extra support this is one place to find it.
they are stupid.... The game be worth nothing now.
My project is for free; Like a gift to community and like an exercise for me.
Yeah, it was a real pity that a little fan-made project like this got shut down. Like you said, Dr F, I don't think any of the guys involved have been around here for ages.
