The beautiful gardens of Garsington Manor might seem an ideal setting for Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream, with its ilex groves, its miniature forests of pyramid yew, and its paths overhung (o'er-canopied?) with climbing roses. So it's a mild shock to confront on the actual stage what looks like a huge attic store-room littered with beds, chucked in at all angles, a few lamps, various items of bric-à-brac, and, upstage centre, a large C. S. Lewis-style wardrobe through which, in due course, characters enter and exit.
Bed admittedly is iconic in the Dream, a work in which half the cast fall asleep at one time or another. In Daniel Slater's production even Puck starts off in bed and is rousted out by fairies in the shape of a gang of small boys dressed up as soldiers, sailors and pilots. And this is the starting-point for a reading that treats the dream in question as a process of self-discovery, growing-up, emotional maturation. The Athenians themselves are overgrown boys and girls in school uniform, which they gradually shed. Only the presumably immortal Oberon and Tytania, and the mechanicals – for whom self-discovery is sixpence a day for life – are adults (of a kind) from start to finish.
The idea is brilliantly effective and would be still more so, I suppose, in a theatre where the light of day could be shut out. At Garsington, with its open-sided, translucent-ceilinged marquee theatre, the nocturnal snorings and slitherings of Britten's incomparable score are rather demystified by the sunlit purlieus of six o'clock on a June evening. The music, Francis O'Connor's designs, and especially the lighting by Bruno Poet, all come into their own only after the long interval, ironically as dawn approaches onstage, in a truly magical ending with the lamps lit and the woodland carpets rolled away to create the opera's one strictly indoor setting (for Theseus's post-nuptials) and a stage for Pyramus and Thisby.
In choreography, too, there is some small loss. At the core of the production, Puck, with his acrobatic trumpet and drum accompaniment, is turned from a glib-talking gymnast into a tongue-tied Beckett tramp, error-prone not because over-hasty but because slow-witted. Richard Durden makes this convincing enough, but it slows things down more generally; and in the same way the fairies, their wings clipped, hover rather than flit, while singing with irresistible charm. Slater best achieves movement with his helter-skelter slide for the more magical entrances stage left (including the conductor's for his curtain call), and in the Pyramus play and bergamask – impossibly stupid and overplayed as always but fun because a release from the toils of magic.
Unorthodox the setting and the action, but the music, in the experienced hands of Steuart Bedford, brings few surprises – agreeable or disagreeable. Though not always quite as fleet as the master's own performance, it's very much the score rendered audible, exquisitely played, attentive to stage and singers. This latter can be very necessary, not least because of Britten's vocal predilections. Rebecca Bottone's Tytania – bright and toppy – can ride anything in the pit, but the countertenor Oberon, James Laing, is less forward, though a stylish, intelligent performer, and unexpectedly moving when he assumes a Christ-like concern for mortal agony after the last of Puck's bunglings. The poor manipulated lovers are a well-balanced team, wittily directed, and without undue slapstick. For Britten, perhaps significantly, the soprano was the sexually assertive Helena, sparklingly sung here by the girlish Katherine Manley, the mezzo the more stable Hermia, here Anna Stéphany – contained and dependable, exactly right. Their oft-confused squires, Andrew Staples (Lysander) and George von Bergen (Demetrius) are likewise excellent.
The mechanicals, as ever, test the director's inventive powers. I like very much Jonathan Best's studious, besuited Quince, the petite Pascal Charbonneau as Flute (and a worryingly attractive Thisby), and the utterly un-petite Sion Goronwy as Snug. They are well supported by Mark Wilde and Robert Gildon. But by some way the star of the show is Neal Davies's Bottom, more bank manager than weaver, vocally authoritative, consistently funny however ghastly the jokes.By comparison Conal Coad's Theseus and Patricia Orr's Hippolyta are a disappointment, partly because mildly satirised, at that point in the story when sanity should speak. This Theseus is a stout and elderly admiral, the apotheosis, perhaps, of the grown-up, and questionable in his motives. Hippolyta, for her part, is clearly marrying him for what he'll leave her.
It may be, though, that sanity is always suspect in this charmed world, if not, one hopes, in the equally magical environment of Garsington itself, on show here, sadly, for the last time before next year's move to Wormsley. The company need three million to keep afloat. Like the mechanicals, they deserve it.
A Midsummer Night's Dream continues at Garsington until 2 July.

Q: How to convert Json string to an Array - Android I want to convert a Json string to an Array here is my current code
    String[] comments = json2.getString(KEY_COMMENT);

KEY_COMMENT is a string which contains multiple comments. The comments were gathered in a php array then sent back to the phone into a Json string. How can I convert the string to an array?
An example of what the comments look like is this
07-08 20:33:08.227: E/JSON(22615): {
"tag":"collectComments",
"success":1,
"error":0,
"numberOfComments":16,
"offsetNumber":1,
"comment":["test 16",
"test 15",
"test 14",
"test 13",
"test 12",
"test 11",
"test 10",
"test 9",
"test 8",
"test 7",
"test 6",
"test 5",
"test 4",
"test 3",
"test 2",
"test 1"]}n

A: It looks like you're using the org.json library and that you have already called the public JSONObject(java.lang.String source) string-based constructor to parse the full string into a local var named json2, presumably with something like this:
String json = ... // "{\"tag\":\"collectComments\",\"success\":1,...
JSONObject json2 = new JSONObject(json);
String KEY_COMMENT = "comment";

but instead of String[] comments = json2.getString(KEY_COMMENT); (which tries to get the comments as a string; something that probably shouldn't work since it's an array, but does) you probably actually want:
JSONArray commentArray = json2.getJSONArray(KEY_COMMENT);

At this point, commentArray is a JSONArray, which can be a heterogeneous list of values, including strings, numbers, booleans, nulls, and even arrays. If you want to turn this into an actual Java array of String, you'll need to walk it, converting as you go:
String comments[] = new String[commentArray.length()];
for ( int i=0; i<commentArray.length(); i++ ) {
    comments[i] = commentArray.getString(i);
}

A: I found GSON a great tool to work with json objects on Android. It's a java library to convert JSON to Java object.
You can check it out here: https://sites.google.com/site/gson/gson-user-guide#TOC-Array-Examples
Here's their example working with Arrays:
Gson gson = new Gson();
int[] ints = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
String[] strings = {"abc", "def", "ghi"};

// Serialization
gson.toJson(ints);     ==> prints [1,2,3,4,5]
gson.toJson(strings);  ==> prints ["abc", "def", "ghi"]

// Deserialization
int[] ints2 = gson.fromJson("[1,2,3,4,5]", int[].class);

In your case, you would set up the class as follow:
public class Comment {
    public String tag;
    public String[] comments;
    // define other elements (numberOffset, error...) if needed
}

Then, to de-serialize the json response, in your code:
Comment item = gson.fromJson(jsonString, Comment.class);
// Access the comments by
String[] comments = item.comments;

// Access the tag
String tag = item.tag;

A: To use the default JSON lib try this:
// convert from json string to something useable
  JSONArray commentsArray = json2.JsonArray(KEY_COMMENT);
// loop through the elements
  int length = commentsArray.length()
  for (int index = 0; index < length; index++)
  {
    String comment = commentsArray.getString(index);
    System.out.println(comment);
  }

La crise de la lire turque de 2018 est une crise financière et économique ayant eu lieu en Turquie. Elle consista en une chute de la valeur de la lire turque (TRY), une hausse de l'inflation, une hausse des taux d'emprunt, puis des défauts de paiement.

La crise fut provoquée par une balance des comptes courants largement déficitaire, une dette importante libellée en devises étrangères, ainsi que l'autoritarisme croissant du président Erdoğan. Certains commentateurs insistent également sur l'influence macroéconomique des tensions géopolitiques avec les États-Unis, qui se sont traduites en 2018 par une hausse des barrières douanières sur l'aluminium et l'acier produits en Turquie.

La crise mit un terme à une période de surchauffe de l'économie turque, dont la croissance fut portée, sous les gouvernements dirigés par Erdoğan, par la spéculation immobilière financée par des acteurs privés étrangers ainsi que l'État turc.

Man Utd boss Solskjaer moves to block Lingard exit
Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard remains wanted this season by manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Lingard has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford in the January transfer window, having not started a Premier League game for more than a year.
The 28-year-old did get the nod for United's FA Cup win over Watford at the weekend, but it is thought his opportunities will still be limited going forward.
Lingard's representatives have held discussions with Nice over a potential loan move, according to Sky Sports.
But the Telegraph says Solskjaer wants Lingard to stay with the Red Devils this month.

Turkey starts oil drilling in Eastern Mediterranean
"If harassment takes place, our naval forces will do what is necessary," says Turkey
Shaimaa Raafat October 31, 2018 Be the first to comment
The Turkish drillship Fatih started on Wednesday its first drilling campaign in the Eastern Mediterranean, in a move which is likely to increase tensions between Turkey (which is ruling the northern part of Cyprus), and Greece, and Cyprus, over offshore oil and gas rights.
Turkish Minister of Energy Fatih Donmez said on Tuesday that the first exploration well will be drilled at a location about 35 nm off the town of Alanya, Antalya province. "We don't have an eye on the resources of others, our only issue is to present to our people the riches within our territory," Donmez said. The well will be some distance from the disputed region, which lies further south and around Cyprus.
"If harassment takes place, our naval forces will do what is necessary," Donmez added.
In February, five Turkish warships blocked a rig belonging to the Italian energy firm ENI from processing its operations for searching for gas in the eastern Mediterranean regional waters of Cyprus island.
Cyprus has been divided into two countries since 1974, forming the Turkish Cyprus on the northern third of the island, and the Greek Cyprus in the southern two thirds. While the Greek Republic of Cyprus is internationally recognised and an EU member, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is recognised only by Ankara.
Turkey affirmed that the northern part of the divided island, which is closely linked to Ankara, shares in the proceeds of gas reserves found under Cypriot waters, and Turkey has plans to invest in the zone soon.
Egypt has signed an agreement with Cyprus for digging for oil in the zone. Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs previously denounced the Turkish moves in the Eastern Mediterranean saying that the maritime demarcation agreement between Egypt and Cyprus is legal and any party has no right to doubt its legality.
Egypt said further that the agreement is in accordance with the international law, and was filed as an international agreement to the UN, warning of any attempt to harm or affect Egypt's sovereign rights in the eastern region of the Mediterranean, saying it will be confronted.

Aquaman: Death of a Prince Introduction
Back when the Shrine did a post about the Aquaman: Death of a Prince TPB, I quibbled over the fact that the book did not include any sort of introduction.
Since many of DC's collected editions do, and that this volume was clearly timed to appeal to all the new fans Aquaman has thanks to Brightest Day and Flashpoint, I thought it would have been appropriate to get any of the handful of writers who worked on the stories contained therein to jot down a few words. Then I ended by joking that if none of those writers was available, "...well, DC, you have my number."
It then occurred to me that, over the years, the Shrine had interviewed almost all the major creative participants in these stories, and in almost all cases explicitly asked about this 1970s Adventure run. The material was already there.
Figuring what the hell, I decided to write an introduction to the Death of a Prince TPB, as if DC actually had asked me to do it. I hope you enjoy:
In 1974, Aquaman was a man without a country. After a decade that saw him as the headliner of his own title, a founding and active member of the Justice League of America, the star of his own cartoon series (the back half of Filmation's Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure), and, for the first time in his three decade history, the subject of mass merchandising, the 70s crashed down on the Sea King like the pounding surf.
It started in 1971, when his solo book, coming off an extraordinarily successful run by writer Steve Skeates, artist Jim Aparo, and editor Dick Giordano (known affectionately as "SAG") was cancelled, a move so abrupt it didn't even give Skeates time to finish off a continued story he had planned. Strangely, Aquaman, as a title, was actually selling fairly well, the book being a victim as much as anything of inter-office politics.
That left Aquaman with no regular home, so he could only be found in the pages of Justice League of America. By 1971, however, that book had changed significantly from its early issues: gone were the days when Aquaman participated in every adventure, with marquee stars Superman and Batman relegated to minor appearances (not wanting their characters to be overexposed, the Superman and Batman editors of the time asked their characters only appear sparingly in JLA; a move that seems charming in its innocence nowadays). By this point, the League had added members, and many of the newer recruits were given more "screen time" than the Sea King. While his fellow JLAers were building up their rich histories in solo titles, Aquaman was relegated to guest appearances or one-off team-ups.
In 1973, DC's venerable Adventure Comics book was coming off a long run of unusual characters as the star: The Vigilante, Captain Fear, and Black Orchid were all given their shot, none of them lasting longer than a few months in the lead. In early 1974, the book was handed off to the Golden Age character The Spectre, for a run of stories still considered shocking even today: writer Michael Fleisher and former Aquaman artist Jim Aparo had the supernatural hero mete out harsh justice to crooks, turning them into glass, melting them, or converting bad guys into wood and then running them through a buzzsaw. In an age when the Comics Code still had a lot of power and rendered DC's mystery titles mostly toothless affairs, The Spectre feature harkened back to the heyday of EC Comics, where bad men got what was coming to them (indeed, Adventure's editor, Joe Orlando, worked on those self-same ECs). The strip was gutsy and unsentimental; and of course it didn't last.
In Adventure Comics #435, Aquaman returned to the title had been his home for years (running nearly uninterrupted from issue #103 to #284) as a back-up to The Spectre. He was once again written by Steve Skeates, but drawn by an artist new to comics looking to make an, ahem, splash: Mike Grell. Grell was thrilled at the opportunity: "He [legendary DC editor Julius Schwartz] looked at my portfolio and called Joe Orlando in. By now I had told this guy my story, and he told Joe this guy moved with his wife and his dog, and he was looking for work, and is there anything you can give him?
Joe looked at the stuff very carefully and said, 'Yeah, come on into my office.' And he gave me my first assignment, which was the Aquaman story, 'As The Undersea City Sleeps.' It was the launch of my career. It was one of the biggest breaks I ever got."
By the third segment, Skeates has been replaced by another writer, Paul Levitz. Like Grell, Levitz was a newcomer to superhero comics, and didn't really care who it was he was writing: "I have to say, it wasn't, 'Oh my God, I can get my hands on Aquaman.' It was much more at that moment in my life and career, 'I can write a superhero and not these mystery stories which I really liked to read as a kid? Please, sir!'"
Aquaman then disappeared from Adventure for a couple of months. When he returned, it was as the star of the book, featured on its cover (for the first time!) and again drawn by Jim Aparo. Co-written by Levitz and David Michelinie, "The Pirate Who Plundered Atantis!" is a fast-paced, brightly-lit seagoing adventure, with Aquaman alongside his bride Mera.
In the next few issues, Levitz (helped by a revolving door of co-writers, like Michelinie, Gerry Conway and Martin Pasko) brought in members of Aquaman's supporting cast (Aqualad, Aquagirl, Aquababy, Vulko), trip-hammered through the Sea King's Rogues Gallery: The Fisherman, Ocean Master, and Black Manta, developed ongoing subplots, and introduced the greatest playset Mego Toys Never Made, The Aqua-Cave. Steve Skeates returned for an issue, giving Aquaman a new foe, the Marine Marauder. With Adventure Comics #450, co-writer David Michelinie took over the strip, drafting established DC villains to take on the Sea King, like Starro the Conqueror and The Weather Wizard.
Despite the high turnaround in writers, these stories maintained a generally consistent tone and feel, much of it due to the work of Jim Aparo, operating at the peak of his artistic powers. A master at both character expression and slam-bang action, he made Aquaman look as iconic as he ever had. The sun always seemed to be shining in these stories, and with his family of solid supporting characters, it felt as though the rough patch Aquaman went through a few years earlier was now over, and he was about to reclaim his proper place in the nascent "DCU."
But then something happened.
In Adventure Comics #452, writer David Michelinie, had Aquaman's most fearsome opponent, Black Manta, deliver the most personal, shocking blow any supervillain has ever dealt a superhero: the murder of his son, Arthur Jr.
The story, "Dark Destiny, Deadly Dreams" still stands out, some thirty-odd years later, as one of the most startling moments in a superhero comic: never had a superhero suffered so greatly at the hands of one of his arch foes. Aquaman was the first "mainstream" superhero to even have a child. Now the character was breaking the mold yet again, this time in the most nightmarish way possible.
Amazingly, this move was not even considered particularly controversial in the halls of DC at the time. According to Michelinie, he was most likely simply paying off something Paul Levitz was building towards: "I don't think it was my idea--that possibility doesn't ring any bells. But I can't officially deny it, either. Paul Levitz was plotting the book for a while and I and other writers were doing scripts from his plots. So the most likely scenario is that the death storyline was something Paul was building up to and I just carried it through when I took over plotting the book."
While Aquaman was suffering the worst defeat any hero could imagine, as a character he was never in better shape: after this issue, it was announced he was being returned to his solo series, picking up where it had left off, at Aquaman #57!
Featuring the same creative team, Aquaman picked up right where Adventure left off: with the Sea King chasing after Manta, in a quest for vengeance. Over the next few issues, Aquaman history was made with several firsts: Mera was given her first solo shot as a back-up feature (written by Paul Kupperberg; remember that name), and artist Don Newton took over for Aparo, giving the character and book a different, but just as dynamic, look. At the same time, over in Adventure, Aqualad was starring in his own strip (also written by Kupperberg), another first in Aqua-history.
After a tussle with Kobra, the Mera strip ended, and Kupperberg took over the book from Michelinie. Mera rejoined her husband, the death of their son threatening to tear their seemingly-bedrock relationship apart. Aquaman #63 was a real family reunion: Aqualad returned to the fold, and Aquaman's half-brother Ocean Master showed up to again be a thorn in his brother's side. It seemed like all the various Aquaman Family strips (Aquaman, Aqualad in Adventure, and the Mera back-ups) were all coalescing around some big pay-off, a pretty coordinated piece of comic book scheduling, in an era before the advent of regular summer crossover "events."
Aquaman #63 ends on a down note, with Aqualad only then realizing Arthur Jr. was dead. In some ways, even more cruel was the little commercial paste-up DC put at the bottom of the page: "Next issue on sale during the first week of July."
This author waited a long time for Aquaman #64. But the infamous "DC Implosion", a financial catastrophe that led DC to abruptly cancel dozens of titles, forced Aquaman off the schedule, never to return. It seems that readers weren't the only ones surprised that the book was cancelled; its writer was, too! Paul Kupperberg: "I didn't know the axe was about to fall! Aquaman was my first regularly assigned gig when I took it over with #62 (July '78) from David Michelinie, a writer whose work I tremendously admired. I knew it wasn't the healthiest title on the schedule, but I really did expect to have a longer than two issue run on it. I didn't know the book was dead until after I turned in the script for #63."
While Aquaman kept swimming (back into the safe, warm waters of Adventure Comics), he would not return as the star of his own book for another eight years, and even then in just a mini-series. DC wouldn't deem the Sea King ready for another ongoing until 1991. After some moments of true success, and even more moments of failure, Aquaman would continue to struggle to prove he could be a solo star again. Now, in the 21st Century, thanks to his participation in high-profile "event" series such as Brightest Day and Flashpoint and a stable of talented writers and artists who love the character, Aquaman is ready to reclaim the throne as DC's premiere seafaring superhero, and one of the main pillars of the DCU.
It was the stories contained in this volume that helped cement Aquaman as a hero, a loyal and brave man of action, to a new generation. We hope this look back at some of his finest moments will do the same for you.

rob!,
What a great intro. Very well done. I really enjoyed that a lot. Thanks for taking the time every day for us, and for this piece as well.

Rob, this kind of effort is just one more bit of proof, if it be needed, that you are THE (Aqua) Man!
Thanks guys! It was a pure pleasure to write, and I'm goofily proud of how it came out. Glad you liked it!
Marc Tyler Nobleman said...
Smashing idea, Rob, and well-written, as usual.
Bravo! I really enjoyed this, and in no small part because I like collection intros that give a sense of what was going on in the comic culture of the time, and not just with the subject of the collection; it was great that you included some brief information about the Spectre and other features that preceded Aquaman's 2nd stint in "Adventure."
Tegan said...
Very much enjoyed this. Pity they didn't get you to write it ahead of time and publish with the trade. What a lost opportunity on DC's part.
This is simply outstanding work, Rob! I have printed mine and it will be going in my copy, for sure!
Tempest127 said...
Nicely said, Rob---great job indeed!


Yep, by doing a magic character in Demon's, you played easy mode.
Really glad you enjoyed it though. I've had yet another friend in person that tried it and "couldn't get into it" which is disappointing. I don't know anyone in person that's played and beaten it. But it's still quite possibly my all time favorite to this day. As you said at the end there, the shorter length and linearity lends itself well to replays. It's very easy and fun to approach again, and outside of some tricky trophies getting the platinum was pretty fun to me (required NG++++ I think).
It does seem like it wasn't designed solely around melee though, since things like the red and blue dragons basically don't have melee options. I mean, the games in general (except Bloodborne) really are best approached with some type of magic or archery at least as a secondary option. Actually balancing things well seems like it has been an issue though. Especially when you can turn around and use a melee weapon with Magic (or INT/Faith/etc) scaling and not be stuck only at range.
Yeah, especially if you jump into NG+'s, some magic becomes somewhat essential... and almost game breaking. Things like Cursed Weapon, Second Chance, etc are extremely powerful. Demon's was very forgiving in your stat distribution, so it lends itself well to varied and experiment builds. Unlike Dark Souls 1 unless you really know what you're doing, a few misplaced points can really screw you over haha. So it's cool in Demon's you pretty much can do a jack of all trades.

No, I forgot to take screenshots.... >_< I built the Psi Ops facility, but I never actually used it.
The game itself is brilliant. The only problems were functionality, and those are clearly just issues with optimization for the platform rather than issues with the game itself.
Human Resource Machine is a wonderful puzzle game by Tomorrow Corporation (a/k/a the creators of the similarly brilliant Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure, Little Inferno, and World of Goo). In it, you "program" an office worker to deliver parcels to an outbox using a set of pre-determined commands. The puzzles start out relatively simple and introduce you to some basic programming concepts, but puzzles later in the game - like creating a short Fibonacci sequence or sorting a zero-terminated string - are very challenging, requiring both dozens of commands and hundreds of steps. Moreover, once you complete a puzzle, you can revisit it to complete "optimization" challenges, which require you to modify your code so that it employs fewer commands or fewer steps.
I found the game incredibly addictive, and I love how it breaks from puzzle game conventions to provide a unique challenge. While it is by no means the hardest game of all time, it certainly is not for everyone, and people without some basic programming knowledge may find it frustrating. If you are seeking a challenge, however, I cannot recommend it highly enough.
I am almost 18 hours into DQVII right now, and I am just wrapping up another one of the games "mini-RPG" segments. (I defeated the automaton army, and saved Faraday Castle.) I am going to take a short break to play some more "seasonal" games, such as Alone in the Dark (iOS), Hysteria Project (PS3), Hysteria Project 2 (PS3), and Costume Quest 2 (PS3). Should be fun!


The Nigerian Army says it invaded the offices of Daily Trust Newspapers offices in Maiduguri and Abuja, to invite the organisation's journalists responsible for the publication of a classified military operation plans.

Soldiers along with the police invaded the offices on Sunday over a lead story, detailing a major military plan operation to flush out elements of Boko Haram from Baga and its environ.
The faction of the terrorist, belonging to the Al-Banarwi which is affiliated to the Islamic State West African Province – ISWAP attacked the border town and surrounding communities shortly after the Christmas.

Usman said: "The disclosure of classified security information amounts to a breach of national security and run contrary to Sections 1 and 2 of the Official Secrets Act.
He further explained that the invitation was done with the best of intention to make the reporters realise the import of such acts to national security.
"We, however, wish to enjoin further that they should eschew jeopardising national security in their reportage.
Usman appealed to the media to join hands with the military and other security forces to end terrorism and insurgency in the country.

Rocket League Review
Those into gaming sports can't be missing out on this one. After all, Rocket League combines two of the craziest sports ever, cars and ball and you can play it on the 먹튀사이트. While using dazzling graphics and constant season upgrades, Rocket League is a heaven for car lovers as well as ball lovers.
Three years on
It's been three since Rocket League made its debut. A crazy idea of having cars, rocket-powered at that, thrashing a ball in a football- like ground to slam it into the goal was created by Psyonix and it actually worked. The game since then has gotten tons of upgrades and the recent look is just breathtaking. New grounds and glossy graphics keep you entertained and wanting for just a little more once you think you are done.
The game offers several modes with varying levels of difficulty that require different sets of skills. Modes such as Snow Day Hockey, Hoops, Dropshot and Rumble have varying ball types and arenas. The bottom line is, its all fun.
There are plenty of costumes available too, so you can dress your car and paint it as you wish. The cosmetics available for your cars are splendid and they are all trade-able, means you don't have to purchase it for cash. You can gather them by playing and winning.
There's also a good choice of cars there. All the cars are of the same. Some are better than others differing in power, edge, and strength. You can always choose the best car for you, but the only way to find out is to keep playing.
As with most other online games, Rocket League has server issues and at times, your cars may be slower than usual. Though the 먹튀사이트 tries to maintain 60 frames per second at all times, there are good times and bad times.
The innovative idea of cars playing ball is just too unique to be overlooked. The gaming graphics, cars, and costumes all come beautifully together. On top of everything, the fact that you can play it anytime and anywhere sometimes seems too good to be true. The game has come a long way from being novel to exotic.

When my friend and I arrived at the Reitz Union, we followed the long line of people into the Constans Theater. We waited briefly before being ushered into the theater. We sat on the rightmost side of the theater right by the right entrance where many of the actors and actresses came in and out during the play. I enjoyed the stage and the lights and scenery and it made me feel like we were not in a theater but really watching a story play out in front of us. The stage scenery was detailed yet plain enough to still leave work for the imagination. Because we were so close to the stage, it felt very personal and neat to feel like we were watching the story so closely. Space is very important in pursuit of the Good Life because you have to feel comfortable in your surroundings in order to be happy. I was happy in my seat for the play so I found happiness in watching the presentation.
I attended the play with a close friend and so watching the play felt more like a fun outing with my friend than an assignment for a class. We went and met up at the Reitz Union before we entered so we could sit next to each other. Going with a friend made this an enjoyable experience because I was able to sit with someone I knew and enjoy the play with. We ended up talking to the people around us and made friends with those strangers too; one of the guys we met was in my lecture class so it was fun to talk with them. We went opening night and so the theater was fairly full. Sharing fun moments like these with friends or family is incredibly important to the Good Life. While being comfortable with yourself and enjoying your own company is nice, sharing fun moments with other can be incredibly special. When you have the ability to share something special and meaningful with someone you like to be around, that experience becomes even more special and gets you even closer to the Good Life.
Watching this play opened my eyes to new lifestyles and hardships that many people had to undergo. This play also helped me view an aspect of my religion in a new sense through the depiction of the Catholic Church and the scandals that followed. The time of the play was also an interesting factor. The 20th century time frame and setting showed me new aspects and ideas that I never gave much thought to. The central issue of innocence, pain, and coping was even more highlighted in the setting of the play and the rough backstory on the main characters in the production. I had no knowledge of what the play was explicitly about when I arrived, but I did have knowledge of the poor working conditions of the 20th century, especially children's working conditions. This play, however, brought so much emotion to these topics we mostly just read about but never fully understand. This performance definitely changed my perceptions on the treatment of the poor in society and the gap between the rich and the poor and opened my eyes to truly how difficult it must have been.
This performance definitely engaged the audience through its intense emotional, uncomfortable, and shocking story lines. This play was cathartic in the way it portrayed the rough, radical, and taboo topics that many people seem to either neglect or disregard entirely. It allows the audience to look into their souls and remember that hardships like the ones portrayed do exist and it is wrong to not acknowledge them. Theatre gives the audience the capability to examine the aspects of life that are left unacknowledged or pushed away and allow the audience to examine them through such a cathartic experience. This play showed the horrendous working conditions for the poor, the vile acts of those who take advantage of the vulnerable, and the apathy of those who view themselves as above the rest. All in all, I found that this production was incredibly moving and commend the actors and actresses for giving such a cathartic experience tastefully but with intense impact. It will surely be a play that I remember and will recommend to others.

Q: How to set Date limit in days? I have been trying to set a time limit for a certain form to not function past a specified date in a month, but I have been unsuccessful so far.
I am working with a low-code windows interface software that does the majority of the actual coding in the background but since it has some limitations I need to code this Date limit in myself.
The best thing I reached after looking around was this:
DateTime temp = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 15);

And I would add a rule in the program that the date shouldn't be higher than the above.
But for some reason it doesn't work giving me an "; expected" error (in line 1 char 29).

A: you can use the below code. you have to use AddDays method.
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
DateTime pastTime = now.AddDays(-15);
DateTime futureTime = now.AddDays(15);

It will give you backdate if you provide a negative value.
you also have a typo in your code, the correct DataType is DateTime.
you can comparisons as you have for int, and doubles.
if(now < pastTime)
{

}

A: This will only open the specified form up to and including the 15th of the month:
if (DateTime.Now.Day <= 15)
{
    myForm.Show();
}

You can obviously change the operator and/or value to change the way it works. The important point is the Day property of the DateTime value representing the current date.

A: The Error:

"; expected" error (in line 1 char 29).

You're missing a ending semi-colon, probably in a line above or below.
Tip: try to name variables well with meaning especially in anything-but-code (ABC) environments:
DateTime avoidReservedKeyWords = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 15);


Live Online Personal and Group Coaching, Anytime, Anywhere.
Life coaching sessions offer you an avenue for finding freedom from self-sabotaging behaviors, negative self-talk and the fear that keeps you in your comfort zone, all of which can block you from experiencing radiant health, creative self-expression, right livelihood and loving relationships. During each life coaching session my purpose is to reconnect you with and help you hear your inner source of wisdom. By discovering and accepting the hidden parts of you that have been compromised, a healing happens that allows you to experience greater authenticity and integrity with yourself. Gaining a greater sense of self-understanding is usually all that is required to drop the blocks we have to allowing love into our lives, the procrastination that keeps our deepest dreams from coming true and/or the destructive behaviors that have been draining our health.
If you are on the earth at this time it means that you have a purpose. I'll bet you even know what that purpose is, but sometimes when it feels so much bigger than the amount of greatness we have been conditioned to believe that we are allowed in this life, and when it will require more self-confidence than you've previously experienced, it is scary to take action. You were meant for so much more then you realize. Your potential is limitless and exponential. And all it takes to experience your truth is stepping out of your own way. Through life coaching I will help you build the habits and learn the life style skills necessary for optimal physical, emotional and spiritual health and self-actualization.
I will meet you where you are in your healing journey. Contact me at jackie@jackieblake.com for more information. Pricing below.
With relationship coaching, I will help you zero in on the core issues at the heart of your ongoing relationship struggles. I believe that our relationships are our greatest spiritual tools for healing and learning. We attract what we are, what we expect and what we believe we deserve, which means that when we are not enjoying what we've attracted the power lies entirely with us to change those creations. All relationships are a mirror of the relationship you are having with yourself. It is extremely hard to see one's own patterns from the inside of a relationship problem, which is why I've developed this coaching system to help you.
Are you single and having trouble attracting a partnership? Fed up with the endless merry-go-round of online dating? Tired of meeting people who are afraid of intimacy? Or are you in a relationship and not sure if this is "the one"? Do you keep attracting the same type of dysfunctional man or woman? Unsure of whether you should stay in a relationship and work through issues or if it's time to leave? Are you dealing with heartbreak and you're unable to move on? Are you having trouble dealing with the pain and do you keep wanting to call and text your ex?
Then it's time to book a one-hour coaching session with me. Let's being the healing process together and change the results you are getting in the area of relationships. I am available for telephone or Skype/Facetime sessions. Contact me at jackie@jackieblake.com for more information.
All new clients can book a complimentary 30 minute exploratory session to try out coaching with me without risk! CLICK HERE to schedule your session. In the "Message" field please tell me what you would like to talk about in your session so that I can prepare and you can get the most value out of this time.

"I've only been working with Jackie for two months and I've grown and progressed so much in so little time. Every morning, I wake up and put on some worship or meditation music and read the affirmations that Jackie prescribed aloud to myself- even if its just a minute because I'm rushing out the door. I have learned to prioritize my quiet time.
Ideas flow freely for me now and I am more confident in my creative process. I've launched a skin care business where I make all natural products from scratch. I've never felt so determined to see a project to completion and so fearless to live a purpose driven life. My life has changed drastically and I seek to find purpose in my work before anything else. I am happy to be dreaming and thinking outside the box in regards to what I am going to do with my life once again. I find I am more connected with God and can feel His guidance more than ever.
My relationships at home, work and with my partner have shown improvement. I am much happier and less stressed because I am able to voice and communicate what I feel rather than letting it sit and bottling it up inside. Ive never had a better romantic relationship in my life than I do now.
My favorite thing about working with Jackie is that she is down to earth and straight up hilarious! She is gentle and intuitively guides the session to where the real "problem" lies. She has taught me to look deeper than just surface level to reveal what I really need to heal. I love that Jackie is very respectful of my individual spiritual beliefs and works that into my session and my program.
"I planned a trip to Italy in desperate need of a special kind of... let's say: "relaxation". I have a stressful life stateside and wanted a week of freedom to entirely be myself. (And yes, I wanted a little romance!) Sounds great in theory. But I'm just not a dating app person. I'm not a go-to-the-bar-and-find-a-guy kind of woman. I've also never travelled abroad by myself before and to say I was intimidated is an understatement.
Enter Jackie Blake. She came to me by the referral of a friend who has known her for years and told me of her travels and her book. I decided to enlist her coaching prowess to design the kind of experience I wanted in Italy and to be ready for whatever happened.
Jackie patiently coached me through setting up my apps, reviewing my options, and attracting the kind of attention that would work for me. And it worked!! Not only that, when I had a few bumps Jackie kept me honest about why I was there (my own enjoyment), the kind of experience I wanted, and reminded me that patience and positivity would reward itself.
Let's just say I can't wait to go back to Italy again... and I'd recommend Jackie's coaching 100%. She's kind and supportive, but will keep it 100% real with you. She's available when you need her - and if she hasn't "been there" herself, she knows someone who has.
Bite the bullet. Go on that adventure. And let Jackie Blake be your professional Wing Woman on the way.
"Since my coaching, I am truly putting myself first and making decisions that bring me closer to my goal; companionship, husband, kids and family. This has been the year of saying, "No!" Meaning, if I don't want to attend an event or do something, I decline. If I'm tired and don't want to do anything then I don't and say no. Jackie, I wanted to work with you because you are so approachable, understanding and non-judgmental and somehow balance that with being blunt. You're authentic and I love it!

Just like her, we were wonderfully made.


In response to the recent service delivery protests and the burning of schools in Vuwani, NAPTOSA, with other stakeholders, were invited by the SAHRC to make a verbal and written submission on the impact of protest actions on the right to basic education. Mr David Millar (Deputy President) and Mr Basil Manuel (Executive Director) appeared before the "Hearing Panel of the Commission" on 13 June 2016 to present NAPTOSA's response to the SAHRC brief.
•The right to education cannot be viewed in isolation – there are other competing Constitutional rights like the right to protest (sec 17) and the right to strike (sec 23).
•The manner in which the rights are exercised is crucial – if exercised with responsibility, and as intended, they should not affect the others negatively.
•The distortion of constitutional rights in the South African society must be addressed. People are quick to quote their constitutional rights without adhering to what the right actually determines.
•Schools are of the community and in the community and must of necessity reflect the heartbeat of the community – they cannot be divorced from the community and are automatically impacted if the community is protesting.
•For educators to separate themselves from a community would place them in most instances in grave danger. Their responsibility during these times is to protect their charges and themselves from harm.
•Much is expected of our teachers to right the wrongs in society. This is an unfair responsibility placed on them. Societal and attitudinal changes, to understand and correctly exercise constitutional rights, is what is needed in South Africa.
•NAPTOSA has sought to ensure that its members affected by protest action have a survival strategy to protect themselves and their learners.
•NAPTOSA annually trains its school representatives, the focus of which is on schooling and the rights of children and teachers to a safe working environment as well as the responsibilities of teachers to ensure the minimal disruption to schooling.
•Our members have always risen to the demands of the occasion and conducted extra lessons, weekend classes and vacation-classes where there has been a need to make up for lost learning time.
•Failure by authorities to act speedily in a protest action crisis exacerbates damage to facilities and the right to education as evidenced in Vuwani.
•Protests related to strike action, such as the public service strikes of 2007 and 2010, had a severe impact on schooling and access to education facilities. Schools where teachers were not participating in the strikes were often targeted leading to large scale intimidation of both learners and teachers - the right of association, the right to education and the right to a safe working environment were all violated.
•NAPTOSA as a union has never supported or condoned the violence, disruption of schools and damage to property associated with protest action. We have and are on record for attempting to ensure that minimal disruption occurs in schooling – examples of where Presidents of NAPTOSA intervened, in an attempt to mitigate the impact of protest action on education, were cited.
•Where NAPTOSA has participated in strike action we have strictly adhered to our principles, as espoused in our constitution, on the manner in which this right should be exercised.
•NAPTOSA joined the National Education Collaboration Trust (NECT), other unions, and officials from the DBE and traditional leaders to assess damages and encourage learners to go back to school in Vuwani.
•NAPTOSA has further joined other stakeholders in supporting fund-raising initiatives to ensure learners have textbooks and stationery in Vuwani.

I want to display ads but my app crashes everytime I run it. I run it on 4.2.2 API level 17 emulator. where I am going wrong?

A:
Error inflating class com.admob.android.ads.AdView

You are getting this error, because the AdView class is not in the com.admob.android.ads package, it's in the com.google.ads package.
So change this:
<com.admob.android.ads.AdView
         android:id="@+id/ad"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"

         ads:adUnitId="***************"
         ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"
         ads:testDevices="TEST_EMULATOR" />

To this:
<com.google.ads.AdView
         android:id="@+id/ad"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"

We belong to heaven but we live on earth for this time. We are souls but we have a body. Spread throughout Christian teaching, and particularly focused at Easter, is the proclamation that we are saved by the blood of Christ on the Cross. Because of God's mighty acts, not our own, we are given salvation and eternal life. Yet still we are here in this world where there are so many struggles. So it seems we are saved now and not yet. Rather than being a wishy-washy way of expressing Christianity, this now-and-not-yetness is probably the most accurate way of addressing both our eternal salvation and the opportunity to live faithfully in the present. We are given the greatest promise of all at Easter and made to wait for the promise to be fulfilled in our own lives.
So selfish are we that things we do not have fully and completely right now are things we doubt and question. Beyond being just cynical, we pridefully demand to live by only what we hold in our hands. Very much like self-centered children, we want it all right now.
Yet even at Easter, in the midst of the greatest gift we could ever imagine, our Lord asks us to wait for his promise to be enacted in us. It is not that his promise remains unfulfilled; in Christ the promise has already been carried out, once for all. The promise extends to us and to the specific day which lies ahead of us. The promise is being enacted in us and that involves our future which we cannot see ourselves.
Couples stand at the altar and promise to love one another. Already they have experienced the grace and power of loving and being loved and now they extend a promise for the future. In some ways the vows are the culmination of a mutual experience; in many other ways the vows are the beginning of love to come. And certainly the power of the vows is that each intends to love the other when the other is unlovable. We humans carry out those vows inadequately but God carries out his vows perfectly. As Jesus is crucified, dead, and raised, God extends himself to us in his most perfect vow: he will love us though we are unlovable.
Trust God's perfect promise. Be assured of God's will to carry out the plan of salvation in each of us and all of us together. Have the hope that God's gifts will come about completely in your tomorrow and live today to God's glory and honor.
Have a blessed Great Fifty Days of Easter which begins this Sunday!
