World Of Tanks Xbox One: Marvin Hall, Associate Publisher Producer Speak About The Game
There's no disputing World Of Tanks' wild success on Xbox Live, so it was only a matter of time before it rolled out onto Xbox One. We speak with associate publisher producer Marvin Hall to get the first details.
"It's not just a game, but a worldwide community"
It's great to hear that World Of Tanks will be making its way to Xbox One, but why has it taken so long to make the generation leap ?
Marvin Hall: We just hit our one-year anniversary a few months after the Xbox One did. We originally decided to develop for the platform with the largest number of users, which was Xbox 360 at the time. World Of Tanks is a massively multiplayer action game that requires a large user base to support it. It was obviously the right choice as World Of Tanks is the most successful console F2P game to date. Now it's time to take that success to the Xbox One.
What does the power of the Xbox One allow you to do with World Of Tanks that you weren't previously able to on Xbox 360?
Lots! Full 1080p gameplay, higher poly tanks, higher resolution textures, greater than 4X the 360. We are adding all sorts of advanced lighting, even more complex FX, greater soundscapes and more. These heavy metal monsters (tanks) really come to life on Xbox One.
How will World Of Tanks on Xbox One be different to the Xbox 360 and PC versions?
The Xbox 360 version was completely rebuilt and differs greatly from the PC version. It's a more streamlined and faster experience, designed to be played with a controller from six or more feet away on modern HD TVs. The Xbox One version builds upon that with incredible graphic upgrades, cross platform play, integration with Xbox One features like live Twitch streaming, Game Clips and Game Hubs.
How important was it to Wargaming to let gamers bring all of their progress, tanks and account over to World Of Tanks on Xbox One?
It was a vital aspect to the design and project as players invest a lot of time into World Of Tanks. While it would have been easier to not allow this, the right choice was to keep the progress the players have made supporting the game over the past year.
While the graphical boost is appreciated, we often hear from our community that the menu and interface systems can seem confusing, especially for new players. Is there any chance of this being overhauled in future?
If you've been following the game over the past year then you know we're constantly updating and improving the UI. We've listened to the players and have added quite a few new features and changes to the first time user experience. We've added help screens and training videos for just about everything. Along the way we're added highly requested features like a full map mini map and a filter system for player's tank collection.
What technical hurdles did you have to overcome to let gamers battle cross platform?
Ask me again once we've released we're not done quite yet! The two Live networks are separate so we're wiring all the pieces together on our servers. Players will be able to play with their account on both platforms seamlessly and even switch back and forth. We've just added cross-platform voice chat which was a big player request and that's really important to us.
Will we ever be able to fight against PC players on Xbox One?
Technically, it's feasible, but we've diverged from the PC game so much it would hardly be fair to our PC brethren. All kidding aside, the PC game is as heavily optimised for that experience as the console version is for playing from your couch, controller in hand, yelling into your headset and hearing the glorious sounds of combat coming from your home theatre system.
What do you attribute to the massive success of World Of Tanks ? Free-to-play games have had typically had a tough time establishing an audience on Xbox.
I don't think there's any one reason, otherwise it would just be copied over and over. World Of Tanks has been successful on multiple platforms and in practically all regions around the globe. Treating the game as a service is a big one. We released over 40 updates of content and features in the first year. We listen to and engage with World Of Tanks players in the forums, at player gatherings, conventions and one on one. It's not just a game, but a worldwide community. Free-to-win is another reason. No player can pay to have a gameplay advantage over another player. Monetisation allows for customisation, collectability and speeding up progression. World Of Tanks is never in your face about spending money. The option is there for those that want to but if you don't want to you can have the same high stakes action and strategy experience for free, for always.
The big question when can we expect to World Of Tanks to release on Xbox One?
I can answer almost everything but the date. As a developer, they don't trust me not to tell you that it will be sometime this year.

An artists' draw: The Warehouse Arts District
by Amy Martinez
Since the early 2000s, artists have come in a steady flow to an old industrial neighborhood on the outskirts of downtown St. Petersburg, turning abandoned warehouses into studios and galleries. Today, the so-called Warehouse Arts District is home to more than 120 artists, including glass sculptor Duncan McClellan and potter Charlie Parker.
A craft brewery also has found a home in the district, and there are plans for a vodka distillery and office space.
The area has even emerged as a "second-day" tourist destination, with a monthly art walk and trolley tour.
But as the arts district gains momentum, a non-profit group wants to make sure that it doesn't get too pricey for the people who revitalized it. Last year, the St. Petersburg Warehouse Arts District Association bought a collection of six buildings on nearly 3 acres for $975,000, pledging to create and preserve affordable space for artists.
The city, which promotes itself as an art Mecca, donated $75,000 toward the down payment of $200,000.
According to association President Mark Aeling, a sculptor who moved to St. Petersburg from St. Louis in 2005, the entire project will take up to five years and cost more than $1 million. The first phase involves transforming about 20,000 square feet into individual studios, with a restaurant, foundry, classrooms and exhibit space to follow.
"I was watching investors buying up buildings around here and thinking that artists are going to get pushed out just like everywhere else," he says. "Hopefully, we'll be able to decrease rents over time, not increase them."
One of the district's newest tenants, Dazzio Art Experience, moved in after owner Jay Dazzio learned that rent for his space on Central Avenue in downtown St. Petersburg was about to double.
Dazzio had rented there for five years. Dazzio, who operates a gallery and art school, recently signed a lease for cheaper space near Aeling's place on association-owned property.
Profile: Shark Shield
After moving from Australia to a new outpost in St. Petersburg, Shark Shield is marketing in the U.S. wearable devices designed to prevent shark attacks. Shark Shield devices work by generating an electric force field that sets off spasms in the animals' snouts, causing the sharks discomfort but no lasting damage, says Amanda Wilson, who owns the company with her husband. Prices range from $600 to $700. Since moving to St. Petersburg a year ago, they've focused on engaging Tampa Bay's spearfishing community and marketing to dive shops. "We were in a half-dozen retail locations in Florida last May," she says. "Now, we're in 40."
Former Hawaiian Telcom Communications executive Robert Reich became CFO at Syniverse in Tampa, replacing David Hitchcock, who took a position as head of global product management and development.
Clearwater-based Tech Data made Pete Peterson senior vice president of business development and promoted Marty Bauerlein to senior vice president of U.S. sales. Also, Marc McClure was promoted to vice president of field sales for the eastern U.S., and Vince Stemen was promoted to vice president of field sales for the west/ central U.S.
CLEARWATER — Tech Data sold its businesses in Chile and Peru to California-based Ingram Micro and will leave Uruguay. The company plans to expand its Latin America export business in Miami as well as its Mexico operations.
LAKELAND — Publix reported a 2014 profit of $1.7 billion as sales rose 6% to $30.6 billion. It plans to spend $1.3 billion on construction, renovations and technology in 2015.
LAKEWOOD RANCH — Dallasbased ClubCorp Holdings bought Legacy Golf Club as part of a six-course, $44-million deal spanning five states. CAC International, an information technology company based in Arlington, Va., bought LTC Engineering Associates of Lakewood Ranch for an undisclosed amount.
MANATEE COUNTY — Construction has begun on the Fort Hamer Bridge across the Manatee River. The project is expected to take two years.
NORTH PORT — City officials moved forward with a proposal by New York physician Grigory Pogrebinsky to build a health and wellness resort near Warm Mineral Springs.
SARASOTA — Envera Systems, a provider of electronic security monitoring, plans to add 30 jobs in Sarasota and invest $604,000.
ST. PETERSBURG — Software company GeniusCentral Systems moved its headquarters to St. Petersburg from Lakewood Ranch and will add 40 jobs to its payroll of about 60. Texas-based home builder D. R. Horton is entering Pinellas County with plans for 127 townhomes at a development called The Colonnade.
TAMPA — Gateway One Lending & Finance plans to create 115 jobs and invest $675,000 at a new auto lending service center in Tampa. Ex-New York Yankees star Derek Jeter bid for a restaurant slot at Tampa International Airport, calling his concept The Players' Tribune Bar & Grill. > Tampa's Oxis Biotech signed a deal with MultiCell Immunotherapeutics to develop potential drug therapies for a difficult-to-treat type of breast cancer and multiple myeloma. USF Health and Florida Orthopaedic Institute formed an academic affiliation to create a department of orthopaedic surgery at the University of South Florida. > Pharmaceutical firm Xcelience plans to add 100 jobs and keep another 100 as part of a Tampa expansion that also involves a $9-million investment. > Information technology company Relia- Quest is expanding its Tampa headquarters, creating up to 55 jobs. > Tampa's Odyssey Marine Exploration signed a deal to give up majority control to a Mexican mining company.

MC King Los Leaves Diddy's Label: "This is My Dr. Evil Moment"
Two years and two mixtapes later, King Los has announced his departure from Diddy's Bad Boy Records. He'll be the first to tell you it's bittersweet.
The rapper sat down with Fuse's Esteban Serrano to discuss his exit: "I'm a free agent. This is my Dr. Evil moment. I might just do some house shopping and see what's going on. A lot of realtors are calling already."
It was a natural progression for the rapper, but there's no bad blood between him and the hip hop mogul. "I definitely believe in the whole family thing, someone having your back beyond business," Los told Serrano. "I'm still close with Diddy... I have a lot of outlets I can still utilize even if I want to be independent."
The future is looking bright: Los will drop his tenth official mixtape, Zero Gravity II, next week. Next month he'll hit the road with Kid Ink and beyond that, he tells us, "I just wanna be a fat boy. Move to Miami, get all linen everything. Nah, ok, I won't get fat. I might move to Miami, but I won't get fat."

Political Transition in Cambodia 1991-99 by David W. Roberts
This book illustrates the limits to the 1990s UNTAC peacekeeping intervention in Cambodia. It demonstrates that such an approach to conflict resolution is flawed and that liberal pluralism is not necessarily a reliable vehicle for heralding change in developing societies.
Conflict Neutralization in the Cambodia War by Sorpong Peou
On October 23, 1991, four Cambodian factions and many external powers signed a UN Permanent Five-initiated peace agreement to end the Cambodian conflict. This book explains the UN role in turning the Cambodian battlefield into a ballot box.

Hun Sen's Cambodia by Sebastian Strangio
To many in the West, the name Cambodia still conjures up indelible images of destruction and death, the legacy of the brutal Khmer Rouge regime and the terror it inflicted in its attempt to create a communist utopia in the 1970s.
The Playground by Terrence M. McCoy
Selected by the Washington Post as one of 2012's best works of non-fiction. "Showcasing the work of an unknown author of exceptional ability. ... an ire-inspiring account."
We've heard of China's buying sprees. That it's plowed billions of dollars into some of the poorest nations in the world. But the story we don't know is what this money means for the people there.
Governing Cambodia's Forests by Andrew Cock
The widespread destruction of Cambodia's forests in recent decades saw the loss of the last major area of pristine tropical forest in South-east Asia. The proceeds of often indiscriminate logging and sale of forest and plantation concessions have enriched the country's ruling elite but cost its rural population dearly. It was, moreover, a process in which foreign aid donors were deeply involved, even if the outcome was contrary to their intentions.
Landscape, Memory, and Post-Violence in Cambodia by James A. Tyner
Between 1975 and 1979 the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia enacted a program of organized mass violence that resulted in the deaths of approximately one quarter of the country's population. Over two million people died from torture, execution, disease and famine. From the commodification of the 'killing fields' of Choeung Ek to the hundreds of unmarked mass graves scattered across the country, violence continues to shape the Cambodian landscape.

Editorial: Mueller imperative: Defending elections must be top priority
For all the noise over the Mueller report in the past week and a half, we're hearing disturbingly little about what may be its most urgent subject: the serious and continuing threat posed by Russian interference in U.S. civic life.
Americans have spent a lot of energy and ink putting forth wildly opposite views of what the report tells us about Donald Trump and his presidency. In The Dispatch's view, it confirms deeply unethical behavior by the president that should be addressed by Congress.
But that's a political fight and not our focus here. However, there should be broad agreement by all who value American democracy that foreign manipulation must be countered.
The report's findings in that regard are stunning. Many facts and incidents had been reported earlier by journalists, but their confirmation by the investigation of special counsel Robert Mueller should make resisting that interference a top national priority.
The 2016 intrusion probably wasn't the beginning and certainly wasn't the end of sophisticated cyber-interference in American elections. And Russia likely is not the only foreign power interested in trying to butt in.
Nor, for that matter, is America the only country likely to be targeted. Now that Russia's 2016 effort against the U.S. — "sweeping and systematic," in Mueller's words — has shown how easy it is to deceive and manipulate social-media users on a mass scale, more disreputable regimes will give it a try.
From this point on, the constitutional and cultural safeguards that long have made U.S. elections trustworthy won't be enough. Ensuring a fair and valid result will require a robust defensive effort with at least three fronts: detecting and blocking disinformation; protecting election systems from hacking; and — probably the hardest one — learning to consume information more carefully.
Those undertaking defense of our democracy shouldn't expect much help from Trump or his inner circle. His son-in-law Jared Kushner publicly characterized the massive Russian campaign — involving the military and a private troll farm with more than 1,000 employees — as "a couple Facebook ads," and he declared the Mueller investigation itself "way more harmful" to the country.
And a New York Times story on Wednesday detailed the Trump White House's actual discouragement of those in his administration who have tried to sound the alarm.
To many, former Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen is infamous for backing Trump's policy of separating migrant children from their parents at the Mexican border. But according to four senior officials who spoke to The Times anonymously, Nielsen fought hard to set up a government-wide strategy to defend the 2020 presidential election against Russian interference.
She was shut down repeatedly because Trump doesn't want to hear about it.
White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney reportedly told Nielsen that, in Trump's eyes, expressing concern about Russian interference is the same as questioning the legitimacy of his election — a recklessly self-centered view but unfortunately not surprising from this president.
While government intelligence agencies have warned repeatedly of the danger posed by sophisticated foreign disinformation campaigns, Trump has done little to put presidential muscle behind a defense.
If that doesn't change, then Congress should take the lead on this issue, too. And while House-majority Democrats likely will work without bipartisan cooperation to address Trump's efforts to obstruct the Mueller investigation, we hope that patriotic Republicans will join them on the matter of fighting foreign election interference.
To protect votes once they've been cast, the nation's best cybersecurity minds should be put to work ensuring that state and local voting systems are invulnerable to hacking.
As 2020 approaches, Americans need to retake control of our own national political conversation. And we need help from national leadership to do it.

Søslaget ved Jasmund (8. august 1715) var et søslag i Den Store Nordiske Krig ud for øen Rügen mellem den svenske og den danske flåde. Den svenske flåde var ledet af admiral Claes Sparre (1673-1733) og den danske af admiral Peter Raben (1661-1727). Slaget var et strategisk opgør om kontrollen over forbindelsen mellem Sverige og Svensk Forpommern. Ingen skibe gik tabt under søslaget, men på den danske side var 127 døde og 485 sårede mod 145 døde og 333 sårede på den svenske side.

Baggrunden
I 1712 havde danskerne spærret indløbene til Stralsund over Greifswalder Bodden efter søslaget i Greifswalder Bodden og taget kontrol over farvandet omkring Rügen, men Magnus Stenbock og hans svenske hær ødelagde de danske, preussiske og sachsiske styrkers planer om at erobre Stralsund med Rügen. I 1714 lykkedes det svenskerne to gange at bryde igennem afspærringerne og forsyne de svenske styrker med hårdt tiltrængte forsyninger. Strid mellem Danmark-Norge og Rusland førte desuden til at krigen var gået i stå til fordel for svenskerne.
.
Den allierede hær som belejrede Stralsund i 1715 var stridskræfter fra Preussen, Sachsen og Danmark. Preussen havde i alliancen føringsrollen i operationerne på landjorden. Danskerne havde på grund af deres stærke krigsflåde kommandoen over søstridskræfterne. De tre delhære blev altid fra de forskellige kommandanter ført i overensstemmelse med de andre allierede.

Den 22. november 1714 kom Karl 12. af Sverige til Stralsund. Da nyheden blev kendt i København, blev det kongelige hof chokeret. Bedre blev det ikke da man forstod at Karl XII slet ikke ville over til Sverige, men blive i Stralsund for at holde stand og desuden tage en offensiv rolle under krigen mod de allierede. Det betød at et angreb mod den danske sydgrænse gennem de nordtyske områder fra Svensk Forpommern i 1600-tallet kunne blive en mulighed, og derfor måtte Rügen med Stralsund tages for at eliminere truslen. Første skridt var at genrejse sø-blokaden ved at udsende Østersøeskadren allerede i januar 1715 under viceadmiral Christian Carl Gabel. Stralsund blev samtidig sat under observation af de allierede hære i nærheden.

Karl XII gav ordre til viceadmiral Wachtmeister om at sejle mod vest for at finde og ødelægge en russisk sø-styrke og eventuelt forene sig med Gøteborgseskadren, men denne ordre førte til Søslaget ved Fehmern i april 1715, hvor hele eskadren blev udslettet. I eftertiden kom der flere dårlige nyheder, på den diplomatiske front have Karl XII demonstreret en stærk modvilje mod fred eller våbenstilstand. Den 2. maj 1715 sluttede Hannover sig til Danmark-Norge og Storbritannien som på sin side var træt af den stridbare svenske holdning. Den 17. maj sluttede Preussen sig til de allierede mod Sverige, som nu var omringet af fjender ved alle sine grænser.

Stralsund var næsten uindtagelig, så de alliererede planlagde at blokere byen sammen med Rügen fra svenske skibe gennem det danske-norske søherredømme med orlogsflåden. Admiral Raben skulle derefter blokere Rügen, mens viceadmiral Sehested skulle kontrollere indløbene til Greifswalder Bodden med lavtvands-gående krigsskibe. Desuden planlagde danskerne en landgangsoperation ved brug af egne styrker og at gøre et stort antal mindre transportfartøjer klar til en overgang til Rügen.

Gabel gik efter sejren under Søslaget ved Femern til Kattegat for at blokere den svenske Gøteborgseskadre med en styrke på fem linjeskibe og en fregat i maj 1715 og var der indtil begyndelsen af juli da han fik meldinger om at svenskerne havde aftaklet (fjerne sejl og tovværk fra et skib) deres skibe og sendt deres besætninger til Karlskrona. I juni sluttede Peter Wessel sig til Gabel ombord på sine nye fregat, Hvide Ørn med 30 kanoner. Så kom ordren fra København om at slutte sig til hoved-flåden ved Bornholm. Gabel blev senere syg så eskadren fortsatte uden ham.

Den 15. juli havde admiral Raben 15 orlogsskibe i sin flåde, men dagen efter fik han oplysninger om at 22 fjendtlige orlogsskibe i Karlskrona havde fået ordre til at opsøge den danske orlogsflåde ved Jasmund på Rügen. Sehested var allerede undervejs så Raben måtte den 17. og 18. juli 1715 eskortere Sehested med 15 større skibe og flere mindre fartøjer til Neues Tief ved øen Ruden øst for Rügen. Efter at der kom underretninger om at der var set en stor svensk flåde ved Bornholm, stak Raben til havs for at undgå at blive fanget i en bugt og han valgte at stole på Sehested-eskadrens evne til at færdes i lavvandede farvande.

Sehested i knibe
Raben med sine 16 orlogsskibe anså ikke sig stærk nok mod den svenske flåde på 20 til 21 orlogsskibe og derefter holdt frem nordover langs Rügens østkyst i sigte for svenskerne. Begge var i linjeformation og det kunne have kommet til et søslag, men Sparre havde fået ordre om at kun engagere efter Karl den tolvtes befaling og desuden at nå Stralsund først så svenskerne gik ikke til angreb. Så snart Raben var kommet nordøst for Jasmund på Rügen styrede han mod Møn mens Sparre stoppede forfølgelsen og vendte om til Prorer Wiek på østkysten af Rügen.

Sehesteds eskadre bliver efterladt til sig selv mellem øen Ruden og Usedom ved Osttief indløbet hvor Karl XII havde anbragt batterier på øen Ruden, ved Nordperd (Rügens østligste punkt) og på nordspidsen af Usedom. Sparre sendte 5 linjeskibe mod Osttief. "Slaget ved Usedom" varede i elleve farefulde dage hvor svenskerne havde indfanget Sehesteds eskadre som bestod af pramme bestykket med kanoner, mindre orlogsskibe og grundgående fartøjer på tre kanter. Gang på gang sejlede de fem linjeskibe ind, beskyttede Sehesteds skib og trak sig væk. Farvandet var ikke dybt nok de svenske linjeskibe som var under ledelse af Karl XII ombord på Öland

Sehested, som havde fået kendskab til det aktuelle farvand, kunne bringe de mere sårbare skibe, inkludere Ditsmarsken(46), i sikkerhed udenfor skudhold fra både batterier, den svenske Stralsund-eskadre og de fem linjeskibe under Karl XII. Men stillingen var uholdbar. De var omringet og kunne ikke undslippe. Det skete mens de preussiske troppe invaderede Usedom og derfra indtog de øen Ruden hvor de fik batteriet neutraliseret den 29. juli 1715. Det lykkedes Sehested at få beskyttelse hos preusserne som kort efter indtog byen Wolgast.

Optrapningen
Efter at have nået Møn krydser admiral Raben sydøst for Stevns hvor han venter på forstærkning fra København og samtidig vil afvente situationen ved Rügen fra et gunstigt udgangspunkt. Den 4. august 1715 kom forstærkningen i form af fem linjeskibe og flere mindre fartøjer så Raben kunne nu gøre sig klar til søslaget.

I mellemtiden sendte han sine fregatter ud for at foretage rekognosceringer blandt dem Hvide Ørn(30) under Peter Wessel. Om morgenen den 8. august 1715 forfulgte Wessel en svensk båd og en jolle og opdagede den svenske flådes ankerplads for derefter at stikke af inden svenskerne nåede at reagere.

Raben fik melding om den svenske flådes position og de tilfangetagende svenskere var med på at oplyse dem om flådens størrelse og tilstand. Derefter satte han sejl på flagskibet og tog østover mod Rügens nordspids sammen med den dansk-norske flåden på 26 krigsskibe. Sparre fik meldinger fra sine rekognosceringsfartøjer om at den dansk-norske flåde nærmede sig ved brød straks op.

Søslaget
Den 8. august 1715 ved tolvtiden satte Sparre med 21 linjeskip kursen mod nord-nordøst under en nordvestlig frisk kuling. Raben var klar over behovet for at få en gunstig vindposition (lovart), nærmede sig den nordøstlige kyst af Rügen for at forhindre Sparre fra at komme i lovart i en sydvestlig kurs østfra. Så da Sparre var kommet helt op til Rabens flåde, manøvrede Raben om på en vending sådan at man kunne nå at sejle på en parallel kurs med svenskerne i nordøstlige kurs. Danskerne med Raben i spidsen havde vundet kampen om lovart og kunne nå engagere svenskerne ved kl. 14 om eftermiddagen.

Kampene var til tider ført på korte afstande med destruktive bombardementer fra begge sider som forårsagede store ødelæggelse specielt på den svenske side som oplevde konsentrere ild på deres admiralskibee under Sparre, Henck og Lillie. Flagskibet Göta Lejon(92) fik hele 40 grundskud på og under vandlinjen og over 60 var dræbt eller såret. Lillie og Henck faldt på deres post. Den svenske ild var til gengæld kraftig på den danske fortrop, hvor viceadmiral Jost Juel bliver dræbt på Justitia (90).

Efterhånden måtte to svenske linjeskibe bryde ud af linjen for at blive beskyttet mens linjen bliver tættere igen. Et tredje linjeskib var så sønderskudt at det måtte tages på slæb.

Søslaget fortsætter frem til kl. 20 om aftenen, da havde danskerne og nordmændene klarede at presse Sparre i en østlig kurs væk fra den vestlige del af Østersøen og Rügen så svenskene måtte krydse mod vinden tilbage. Sparre måtte erkende at han blev manøvreret væk fra sit operationsområde uden mulighed for at vende tilbage og derfor havde ikke andet valg end at sejle mod Karlskrona forbi Bornholm.

Ved mørkets fald satte Raben sine fregatter efter svenskerne for at holde øje holdt et øje med dem og en af fregatterne, Hvide Ørn under kaptajn Peter Wessel opdagede to svenske linjeskibe med halvt ødelagte rejsninger og mange grundskud.

Følgerne
Raben blev ikke slået. Søslaget var et strategisk opgør som faldt ud til den danske-norske orlogsflådes favør. Raben tog derefter vestover for at eskortere transportflåden på 175 fartøjer fra Grønsund i Danmark til Pommern hvor Sehested havde anlagt en base for transportflåden som nåede frem den 9. september efter en sejlads siden den 27. august 1715.

Den 13. september begyndte træfningen ved Westtief. Efter to dage sluttet denne med at Sehested igen fik kontrol over Greifswalden Bodden havet. Den 1. oktober kunne Sehested fuldføre arbejdet, og belejringen af Stralsund kunne begynder i nær fremtid is tedet for bare at afspærre byen fra resten af landet. Rügen faldt under allieret kontrol i november 1715. Kort tid efter faldt Stralsund også og Karl XII. trak sig slået tilbage til Sverige.

Mutsu (むつ) is the largest town of the Shimokita Peninsula in Aomori, Japan.
Mutsu (pop. 65,000) is a fairly grim town of gray concrete and rusting corrugated iron with no attractions to speak of, across the bay from Aomori. However, it serves as the central transport hub of the peninsula, and you're likely to pass through on your way. Hotokegaura, Omazaki, Shiryazaki, Osorezan and Yagen Onsen are all an easy drive away. Mt. Kamafuse overlooks the city and offers a couple chair lifts in the winter and a decent hike in the summer.
Since the amalgamation of Mutsu with three neighboring towns in 2005, most of the peninsula is now within city limits, but this article covers only the town.
Mutsu is well connected by Shimokita standards.
The JR Ominato line from Noheji (on the Tohoku main line) passes through Shimokita station (下北駅) in the southern suburbs of Mutsu.
From Tokyo station it takes roughly five hours to reach Shimokita. You will need to take three trains: The Tohoku Shinkansen Hayate to Hachinohe, the Aoimori Railway to Noheji, then the JR Ominato local to Shimokita station. This trip will make your wallet almost ¥17,000 lighter each way.
The Japan Rail Pass and JR East Rail Pass fully cover the trip, including the segment on the Aoimori Railway between Hachinohe and Noheji. Note that seats on the Hayate bullet train require a seat reservation (free with a Pass).
Buses from Mutsu's central bus terminal connect to various points in the peninsula, including Ohata (35 min, many daily), Ōma (1½ hr, 8 daily) and Mount Osore (30 min, 4 daily). No direct services to the Yagen Valley though, you'll have to connect through Ohata in time to catch the single daily bus.
There are several services daily to Aomori (3½ hr) and even occasional direct sleeper buses to Tokyo.
Local bus services provide transportation around Mutsu, but the center is small enough to walk.
The northern command of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Forces is located on the road to Kawauchi, at the very edge of the city. Visitors can request tours of the base, which is home to several destroyers and other vessels. (These tours are unlikely to be available in English).
Mt. Kamafuse overlooks the city and offers a couple chair lifts in the winter and a decent hike in the summer.
There are a few onsen on the outskirts of Mutsu.
Central Mutsu has a number of quaint bars and restaurants.
Mutsu has a wide selection of reasonably cheap lodgings (¥6,000 with two meals), and the tourist information office is glad to help you book.
[dead link] B&B Muu, e-mail: bonin@jomon.ne.jp. A very atmospheric homestay with guest rooms located in the attic section of a log house, owned by an engineer specializing in wooden constructions. The host speaks very limited English, so some basic knowledge of Japanese will come in very handy, but he is otherwise very knowledgeable about the area and friendly. Breakfast costs extra, but tea and coffee are provided for free in the living area downstairs. Reservations can be made via e-mail. The location is given on this Google map. 3900 to 4400 yen/night, depending on the season.
Mutsu Tourist Office (Masakari Plaza, tel. +81 175-22-0909), near the bus terminal, is helpful and can provide basic information in English, not just for Mutsu but the entire peninsula. They will also book accommodation for you.

This city travel guide to Mutsu is an outline and needs more content. It has a template, but there is not enough information present. Please plunge forward and help it grow!

Unfortunately I'm having some internet issues and I'm not able to log in or track every day right now but I'm keeping on track as best I can and miss the community a lot. Hopefully the issue will be solved in a couple days. I just wanted to leave a note for everyone that I'm not, "gone", just taking a forced SP break I guess. I miss you all! Good luck on your goals and I shall return soon!
i always feel off on those days i do ot get to post and track my info. hopefully your internet will be back up soon.
Amazing how not having internet cramps our style soooo much. I absolutely remember my first internet: dial up connection: a minute for the modem to connect...pictures took forever...and I LOVED it!
Here's hoping for a speedy recovery to your internet woes!

'Small hands leading big hands, together let's reduce salt!'
China is the largest developing country in the world, home to one-fifth of the global population. Salt intake in the country is high, with most salt added to food during cooking or at the table, using salty sauces such as soy sauce. High salt intake and high blood pressure are particularly a problem in northern China. Although deaths from cardiovascular disease occur in adulthood, raised blood pressure can start during childhood. Therefore, teaching children about salt and it's effects on health, as well as how to eat less salt, could help prevent high salt intake and high blood pressure later in life.
The School-EduSalt study was a cluster randomised controlled trial, and a novel approach to lower salt intake - the family structure in China means that children can have an influence on the practices of the rest of the family. School-EduSalt educated primary school children about the harmful effects of high salt intake, empowering them to educate their families to lower the amount of salt used at home.
28 primary schools across urban areas of Changzhi, northern China, were involved in the study and the schools were randomised into 'control' and 'intervention'. Almost 280 children (aged approx. 10 years) and over 550 adult family members including parents and grandparents with an average age of 44 years were involved in measurements during the study. Salt intake was measured at the beginning and the end of the study, each involving two consecutive 24-hour urine collections.
Local health educators were trained to deliver salt reduction lessons, and a salt reduction curriculum and materials were developed around the following themes:
the harmful effects of salt on health and the salt reduction target
the recommended level of salt intake
how to reduce salt intake
Usual health education classes were replaced with lessons on salt reduction (40 minute lessons every two weeks, totalling 8 lessons in one school term). Lessons were delivered to all pupils in the class, and homework consisted of emphasising salt reduction messages at home and developing a salt reduction plan for their families.
The study was effective, leading to a significant reduction in salt intake of 1.9 g a day (P<0.0001) (or a third of a teaspoon) in children and 2.9 g a day (P<0.0001) in adults (half a teaspoon).
This reduction in salt intake was accompanied by a significant fall in systolic blood pressure of 2.3 mmHg (P<0.05) in adults.
It was estimated that a 2.3 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure would reduce strokes by around 9% and heart attacks by around 5%. If this was replicated across China, 153,000 strokes and 47,000 heart attack deaths could be prevented each year.
Further details and results of the study can be found in the following publication:

School based education programme to reduce salt intake in children and their families (School-EduSalt): cluster randomised controlled trial. BMJ;350:h770 https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.h770
Funding and Partners
The UK Medical Research Council awarded £761,888 to the study, to cover September 2012 to September 2015. The study was led by Dr Feng He, based at Queen Mary University of London. The project partners were Peking University, China, The George Institute for Global Health, Changzhi Medical College and the University of Michigan, United States.

Selected Bibliography and Abbreviations
The first comprehensive study of the idea of the Mahdi, or divinely guided messianic leader.
The topic of this book is vital to the understanding of contemporary developments in Iran and other areas of the Islamic world in which Shi'ism is a significant social and religious force. Islamic tradition in general speaks about the appearance of the Mahdi, or divinely guided messianic leader, from among the descendants of the prophet. In Shi'ism, belief in the Mahdi is the foundation on which the entire spiritual and temporal edifice rests.
Sachedina's purpose is to examine this key belief in the Mahdi and the doctrinal evolution of the idea of the Mahdi in early Imamite sources. Sachedina compares the Judeo-Christian conception of Messiah and the Shi'ite conception of Mahdi and discusses the developing relationship between the Shi'ite Muslims and political regimes. His primary sources on the development of doctrinal ideas about the Mahdi are the works of early Imamite scholars who developed their ideas when they were in a minority position in the Islamic world.
As the first comprehensive study of the idea of the Mahdi, Islamic Messianism provides a valuable guide to students in religious studies and Islamics as well as to students of Iranian history and politics.

Home/Boxing/Boxing Results: Floyd Mayweather Jr – Logan Paul Go The Distance
Boxing Results: Floyd Mayweather Jr – Logan Paul Go The Distance
admin7 Tháng Sáu, 2021
The final punch stats saw Mayweather connecting on 43 of 107 shots for a 40% connect rate. For his part, Logan landed 28 of 217 shots for an anemic 13% connect rate.
Floyd Mayweather Jr was forced to go the full eight-round distance against YouTuber Logan Paul in a fight that had no winner in their exhibition match on Sunday night at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
Logan's huge frame and weight advantage seemed to be the difference in keeping him from getting totally dominated. He was able to soak up punishment well without getting hurt.
At the same time, Logan did a fair initiation of Wladimir Klitschko by throwing jabs and then tying Mayweather up when he came in punching range. If Logan had used his jab a little more, he might have dominated the 44-year-old Mayweather.
Given the rules of the exhibition, there were no scoring, no judges, and no winner. This writer had Mayweather edging it by activity, and being the better-conditioned fighter of the two.
Logan, 26, looked like he was in need of oxygen with the way he was gasping for breath, turning red in the face, and holding nonstop.
I speak for everyone by saying that the referee gave Logan a huge break by not penalizing him for his holding. But even if he did take points, Mayweather still wouldn't have won under the rules of the fight. You could only win by knockout.
Like in his pro debut two years ago in 2019, Logan gassed out after two rounds, and spent much of the time holding Mayweather from rounds 3 through 8.
What we don't know is whether Mayweather was intentionally carrying Logan to make sure the fight went the full eight. It looked that way to this writer, as Mayweather seemed like he was in first gear all night, and only rarely shifting into second gear.
In the third, Mayweather was landing well and appeared that he was trying to take the much larger Logan out. But the lack of size and power just kept Mayweather from getting him out of there. Of course, we're assuming that Mayweather didn't intentionally back to make sure that Logan saw the final belt.
With this fight out of the way, Mayweather said he'll "probably" fight Logan's younger brother Jake Paul next. Mayweather is going to need to be a lot better against Jake because that guy can really punch, and he's an excellent counter puncher.
Mayweather would have a lot to worry about against Jake because he hits with massive power with either hand. Mayweather couldn't just focus on neutralizing Jake's right hand because his left hook is just as dangerous.

This undated photo made available by Deepak Jaiswal shows Deepak's younger brother Sonu Jaiswal, 25, who died in an air crash in Nepal on Sunday, Jan. 15, 2023. Sonu shot and livestreamed a 90-second smartphone video of the plane's descent before it veered to the left and crashed into a gorge, as the camera went on to record the screeching sound of an engine and fire and smoke.

Passenger's video captures last moments before Nepal crash
by: SHEIKH SAALIQ, Associated Press
NEW DELHI (AP) — Airplane passenger Sonu Jaiswal's 90-second smartphone video began with the aircraft approaching the runway by flying over buildings and green fields over Pokhara, a Nepalese city in the foothills of the Himalayas.
Everything looked normal as Jaiswal's livestream on Facebook shifted from the picturesque views seen from the plane's window to fellow passengers who were laughing. Finally, Jaiswal, wearing a yellow sweater, turned the camera to himself and smiled.
Then it happened.
The plane suddenly appeared to veer toward its left as Jaiswal's smartphone briefly captured the cries of passengers. Within seconds the footage turned shaky and recorded the screeching sound of an engine. Toward the end of the video, huge flames and smoke took over the frame.
The Yeti Airlines flight from Kathmandu that plummeted into a gorge Sunday, killing all 72 on board, was co-piloted by Anju Khatiwada, who had pursued years of pilot training in the United States after her husband died in a 2006 plane crash while flying for the same airline. Her colleagues described her as a skilled pilot who was very motivated.
The deaths of Khatiwada, 44, and Jaiswal, 25, are part of a deadly pattern in Nepal, a country that has seen a series of air crashes over the years, in part due to difficult terrain, bad weather and aging fleets.
On Tuesday, authorities began returning some identified bodies to family members and said they were sending the ATR 72-500 aircraft's data recorder to France for analysis to determine what caused the crash.
In India's Ghazipur city, nearly 430 kilometers (270 miles) south of the crash site in Nepal, Jaiswal's family was distraught and still waiting to identify his body. His father, Rajendra Prasad Jaiswal, had boarded a car to Kathmandu on Monday evening and was expected to reach Nepal's capital late Tuesday.
"It's a tough wait," said Jaiswal's brother, Deepak Jaiswal.
The news of Jaiswal's plane crashing in Pokhara reached his home barely minutes after the accident as news channels began broadcasting images of the aircraft's mangled wreckage, still burning and billowing thick gray smoke, Deepak said.
Still, the family was not willing to trust the news, holding out hope for his survival.
By Sunday evening, however, it had become clear. Deepak, who confirmed the authenticity of Jaiswal's livestream to The Associated Press, was among the first in his family to watch the video that had since gone viral on the internet.
"We couldn't believe the news until we saw the video," he said. "It was painful."
Jaiswal, a father of three children, worked at a local liquor store in Alawalpur Afga village in Uttar Pradesh state's Ghazipur district. Deepak said his brother had gone to Kathmandu to visit Pashupatinath temple — a Hindu shrine dedicated to the god Shiva — and pray for a son, before setting off to Pokhara for sightseeing along with three other friends.
"He was not just my brother," Deepak said. "I have lost a friend in him."
The tragedy was felt deeply in Nepal, where 53 passengers were locals.
Hundreds of relatives and friends of the victims consoled each other Tuesday at a hospital. Families of some victims whose bodies have been identified prepared funerals for their loved ones.
Co-pilot Khatiwada's colleagues, however, were still in disbelief.
"She was a very good pilot and very experienced," Yeti Airlines spokesperson Pemba Sherpa said of Khatiwada.
Khatiwada began flying for Yeti Airlines in 2010 — four years after her husband, Dipak Pokhrel, died in a crash. He was flying a DHC-6 Twin Otter 300 plane for the same airline when it crashed in Nepal's Jumla district and burst into flames, killing all nine people on board. Khatiwada later remarried.
Sherpa said Khatiwada was a "skilled pilot" with a "friendly nature" and had risen to the rank of captain after flying thousands of hours since joining the airline.
"We have lost our best," Sherpa said.
Associated Press journalist Piyush Nagpal contributed to this report.
This version has corrected the year Khatiwada started flying for the airline to 2010, not 2020.

A stunning eyewear collection has launched, taking the design prowess of Hugo Taylor and Charlie Morris and combining it with the iconic eye of Jon Wells, Head of Design at Morgan Motors.
With a passion for design based on heritage, Morgan Motors have long stood for outstanding, traditional design that nevertheless has an innovative edge. It therefore seemed inevitable to collaborate with Taylor Morris, luxury eyewear designers who take inspiration from classic looks and combine this with current, cutting-edge trends to produce outstandingly beautiful pieces.
The three designers worked together closely, creatively agonising over every minute detail of the eyewear. The inspiration was the iconic Morgan 3-Wheeler, with Hugo Taylor and Charlie Morris picking the brains of Jon Wells to understand every movement of the car, every design decision, every nuanced line on the motor so that they were able to bring the essence of the 3-Wheeler into the final design of The HFS.
THE HFS sunglasses are available in three lense colourways which are inspired by the most popular paint finishes, with the frames proudly boasting varying acetates, the three options of which are inspired by the three most popular wood finishes.
London Morgan were proud to welcome Taylor Morris and Zara Martin to our very own mews in Kensington for an exquisite day of high-fashion photography; find out more about the project and shoot with our blog about the Portraits of London project.


I'm a fourth year waver and I love my job. Three years ago, I was unemployed and was looking for a job. I have a degree in performing arts from Columbia College Chicago so I went to an audition and I got the job on the spot. I love meeting new people, making people smile and I learned a lot about taxes.
I even took a class last year and it was a lot of fun. Last year, my picture was in the News Sun in Waukegan because there was an article about Liberty Tax® and I still have that article. Liberty Tax® is a great company and I've sent many people to get their taxes done. They employed me every year and they are great. My boss gives me hot chocolate when it's cold and treats me really well. Thank you Liberty Tax® for keeping me employed and for doing my thing.
Bio: I've been a waver with Liberty Tax® for four years. I started in Waukegan and went to Gurnee. I love my job.

Gasolinera De Walmart
Walmart Inc., an American multinational retail company, is the owner of a chain discount department stores, hypermarkets and grocery stores. Walmart is headquartered in Bentonville, Arkansas. Walmart Inc. was founded in 1971 and has more than 60,000 employees. It is one of the largest private companies in the world. For more than five decades, the company has been a household name. Walmart is well-known worldwide, but the stores of the company are often called "Supercenters".
A major controversy surrounding Walmart centers on the company's ethical practices, employee treatment, and pay. Employees of the company earn low wages and don't make enough to support a family. The company's employees are eligible for government social services programs. Its executives receive astronomical annual salaries. But despite its widespread negative reputation, Walmart is still the largest retailer in the world. And the company's long-term success should be a cause for concern for any consumer.
In 1962, Sam Walton opened the first Walmart store in Rogers, Ark. Despite its humble beginnings, Walmart has had a profound impact on American consumerism. The Walton family owns the company, with a combined net worth exceeding $238 billion. Walmart is today the largest grocery retailer in America. The Walton family holds over half of the company. The Walmart stock is worth $4 billion. However, the company has been subjected to increased competition from online retailers like Amazon.
The impact of Walmart on the economy is well documented. Walmart is one of the most successful retail businesses in the world. However, the company has been criticised for its contribution to urban sprawl and low wages. Walmart employees earn less than the average retail employee because of its anti-union stance. The company's positive impact on the economy has also inspired other retailers to copy their business model. The question is: How does Walmart impact local businesses?
Walmart Plus membership offers many benefits. You can get free same-day delivery for purchases over $35. The minimum for joining Walmart Plus is waived until December 4, 2020. During the same week, Walmart will debut the Walmart+ Weekend. Exclusive discounts will be offered to members at selected stores. The program is similar to Amazon Prime Day, but with a few added features. Walmart Plus is a great way to stay ahead in the e-commerce revolution if you are a regular Walmart customer.
Despite Amazon's expanding reach, Walmart remains the largest retailer worldwide and will continue to be so for many years. With thousands of convenient hypermarkets across the country, Walmart is well positioned to leverage its loyal customer base to stay competitive. Walmart will remain the number one shopping destination for shoppers, even if it isn't already. It's hard to imagine a world without Walmart. The retail industry will be very interesting over the next few years. Keep watching for this competition.
In addition to its supermarkets, Walmart also operates discount stores. Discount stores are smaller versions of Walmart Supercenters. These stores employ fewer associates, but offer grocery items and merchandise. Walmart Neighborhood Markets are usually about 38,000 square feet in size and employ up to 95 associates. These stores sell groceries as well as a pharmacy. There are many products available at discounted prices, including electronics and beauty and health aids.
With Walmart+, members can save five cents per gallon at select gas stations and 10 cents at Exxon & Mobil and Murphy stations. Walmart Plus members also get member prices at Sam's Club fuel centers. Walmart+ members must select the member prices in order to receive these discounts. When buying gas, Walmart Plus members can save up to 10 cents per gallon, and the gas price is typically lower than regular retail prices.
Walmart's history section contains information about mergers, acquisitions and expansions as well as new products. It also shows mergers and acquisitions, and expansions and approvals. For instance, in January 2016, Walmart Inc. added Super Concentrates to three popular varieties of cold brew coffee: Classic, Vanilla, and Mocha. And in February 2017, Walmart Inc. partnered with Getaway to launch the Getaway experience. As a result of its strategic partnership with Getaway, Walmart has grown by a factor of five.

Brillat-Savarin and I have been getting together — a lot. Not the man, who hasn't been around for 190 years. But the cheese, which is immortal.
What I am, apparently, is fierce for mild.
Brillat-Savarin offers a buttery bite with a snap of salt and prickle of sour. It's good at all hours — and even better after hours. A wedge wedged between planks of caramelized pear makes for a devastating dessert — one sure to confer happiness.
Cut cheese into 12 small portions. Let rest at room temperature.
Leave skin on pears. Slice each the long way into 1/3-inch-wide planks. Use a paring knife or apple corer to punch out any seeds. (Each slice will look something like a guitar: pear profile with a hole in the belly.) Set pears on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, whisk together butter, sugar, vanilla extract and salt until thick and foamy, about 4 minutes. Keep this caramel sauce warm over low heat.
Brush each pear plank lightly on both sides with sauce.
Spark a medium-hot fire. Clean and oil grates. (Or use a ridged griddle pan set over medium heat.) Grill pears, turning once or twice, until golden brown and nicely crisscrossed with grill marks, about 8 minutes.
Fan out 4 pear planks separated by 3 cheese wedges on each plate. (The warm pears will melt the cheese.) Drizzle each with about 1 tablespoon of the remaining sauce.
Exchanges per serving: 2 fruit, 1 carb, 1 high-fat meat, 4½ fat.

'If Wallace goes to Chelsea, he will be playing there,' Moraes added. 'I had contact with Roma and many other Italian clubs, but that was a long time ago.

Goblin: Giallo Live
American Cinematheque - Egyptian Theater
Stay tuned for more details about the Beyond Festival https://www.facebook.com/thebeyondfest
The first show sold out in an hour, so we've added a second show! Playing Los Angeles for the first time in their 40 year history, Goblin will perform a full, live set pulled from their most iconic scores, including: Dario Argento's giallo classics Suspiria, Tenebrae, and Deep Red, and George A. Romero's seminal Dawn of the Dead. Immediately following Goblin's performance will be a screening of TENEBRAE in a new 35mm print.
TENEBRAE, 1982, 110 min. Dario Argento's mastery of the giallo is clear in this stylish thriller, which is among the writer-director's most violent - and erotic. In Rome to promote his new novel, a murder mystery writer (Anthony Franciosa) learns that his work has inspired a serial slasher who targets women. As the author teams with the police to find the killer, the blood flows as freely as the plot twists in this oft-censored "video nasty," which includes some of Argento's most dazzling set pieces. Goblin keyboardist Claudio Simonetti, guitarist Massimo Morante and bassist Fabio Pignatelli reunited to create the suspenseful soundtrack. With John Saxon and Daria Nicolodi.
The line up for this tour will include original members since 1975 Claudio Simonetti and Maurizio Guarini (keyboards) and Massimo Morante (guitar). The band is rounded out by drummer Titta Tani and bassist Bruno Previtali that joined in 2010.
To celebrate Goblin's first show in Los Angeles, Beyond Fest is producing a limited edition poster designed by seminal UK artist Graham Humphreys. A fan favorite of the band, Graham's poster will be made available exclusively at the show.
The event will take place inside the auditorium of the Egyptian Theatre.
Doors open at 7:30 PM. There will be an intermission between the live performance and the screening of the film TENEBRAE.
This event is presented by Amity at the American Cinematheque.

Q: New MacBook Pro hard drive not being recognized by Disk Utility? Hey all. Recently I had the misfortune of having (what I think was) hard drive failure on my September 2009 MacBook Pro. When I started the computer, a flashing folder icon with a question mark appeared.
I booted from the Snow Leopard install disk and ran Disk Utility to see if I could repair the drive. Disk Utility didn't even show the drive, just the install DVD. After a few hours of the laptop being off, I was able to start it normally and copy most of my important files to an external hard drive before the OS froze, and subsequent reboots showed a flashing folder icon.
I bought a replacement drive, the Western Digital Scorpio Black and installed it by following these instructions. Installation was pretty straightforward, but all was not well.
When I booted the laptop using the install disk as a startup disk, it could not recognize my new hard drive as a viable installation disk. It didn't show up in Disk Utility, and when I went to install the OS, the drive was not available for selection as an installation drive. Is this something more sinister than hard drive failure? Any suggestions on what to do to fix this?

A: The cable that connects the hard drive to the logic board could be bad(or various other problems with the board). Your best bet is to take it into an Apple store so the techs there can run ASD. When parts aren't recognized by the system, more often than not, the board has an issue.
