Xbox 1 elder scrolls online release date.
It has a broadly similar structure to Skyrim, with two separate conflicts progressing at the same time, one with the fate of the world in the balance, and one where the prize is supreme power on Tamriel. This DLC takes players to a new zone, a realm of brass and artificial life forms. The questline involves assisting the Orcish King Kurog with rebuilding the city of Orsinium. The city itself is overrun by the forces of Daedric Prince Molag Bal, with every district and the central White-Gold Tower being merged into his realm.
This DLC takes players to a new zone, a realm of brass and artificial life forms. ZeniMax Online Studios announced that players who purchased The Elder Scrolls Online before the end of June would have the opportunity to transfer their characters from Microsoft Windows or Mac OS to either console platform and receive a free day subscription. Dragon Bones[ edit ] Dragon Bones is a dungeon pack and includes two new dungeons. The expansion includes a new zone, new story line, jewelry crafting and a new skill line based on the Psijic Order. Once the Amulet of Kings is retrieved, the headquarters shift to the Hollow City, a location in central Coldharbour blessed by Meridia. The subscription also grants perks that allow players to progress slightly faster than a free player. Pre-ordered copies of the game included the "Explorers' Pack", which allowed all races to be played in each of the factions, and this feature is available in the Crown Store. The Clockwork City is the domain of Sotha Sil. In addition to the Dark Brotherhood questline, the release of the expansion saw the removal of the Veteran Progression System,  a new system of poison crafting, and quality of life changes for The Elder Scrolls Online Plus subscribers, including "craft bags", which allow subscribers to store crafting materials without taking up space in their inventory. The events of the game occur a millennium before those of The Elder Scrolls V: Setting[ edit ] As with other games in The Elder Scrolls series, the game is set on the continent of Tamriel. Civilians saved from Coldharbour's prisons arrive in the Hollow City, and it is from there that attacks on Molag Bal's controlled areas are orchestrated. Players must choose one of five classes when creating their character: Each class gives the player various different attacks, spells, and passive effects. Nords, Redguards, Bretons, and Imperials; Elvish varieties: Some zones are accessible with DLC-only from the Crown Store, while others are accessible to players of any faction when they reach a certain level. The DLC includes two new dungeons: In The Elder Scrolls Online, the first struggle is against the Daedric Prince Molag Bal, who is attempting to meld the plane of Mundus with his realm of Coldharbour, and the second is to capture the vacant imperial throne, contested by three alliances of the mortal races. The game has other character choices beyond those of race and class, such as the player character also being able to become either a vampire or a werewolf, each of which grants its own skill tree. Gameplay[ edit ] As in previous The Elder Scrolls titles, gameplay is mostly nonlinear , with a mixture of quests , random events, and free-roaming exploration of the world. On November 8, , Bethesda released a video on YouTube called "An Introduction to The Elder Scrolls Online", in which the game's developers talk about the game's content and development. Players have the opportunity to join any of the three factions warring over the Ruby Throne of the Emperor of Tamriel: The questline involves assisting the Orcish King Kurog with rebuilding the city of Orsinium. Players may also unlock an additional race, Imperial, which may be a part of any of the three factions. The player character has been sacrificed to Molag Bal, and Molag Bal has stolen their soul, the recovery of which is the primary game objective. The expansion includes a new class, a new trial, and a new player vs. Dragonknight, Sorcerer, Nightblade, Templar and Warden.

Central African Republic on the Eve of Elections: From Crisis to Reconciliation
Publication | 09 Dec 2015
Since the beginning of the current conflict in the Central African Republic (CAR), thousands of civilians have been killed, injured or displaced. While the increasingly sectarian nature of the violence has left both Christian and Muslim communities vulnerable to attacks by rival groups, the Muslim minority in particular has faced de facto ethnic cleansing. Central African Republic on the Eve of Elections: From Crisis to Reconciliation highlights the continued challenges facing the country as it attempts to move forward towards a stable, diverse and tolerant future.
The briefing outlines how much of the current violence is in fact rooted in long-term issues of discrimination, poor governance and inequalities over access to resources – issues that must be resolved if the underlying drivers of the conflict are to be addressed. This includes the perennial conflict linked with the seasonal migration into the CAR of pastoralist Mbororo cattle herders from Cameroon and Chad, a situation further aggravated by climate change and desertification.
It also highlights the importance of a regional solution to the crisis: with more than half a million refugees at the end of 2015 located in neighbouring countries, a large proportion of whom belong to minorities, the security and humanitarian impacts of the recent violence are now being felt beyond the CAR's borders. Adequate protection and assistance to refugee communities in Cameroon and other bordering states is therefore essential to ensure the divisions created by sectarian violence in the CAR are not replicated elsewhere.
The referendum and national elections beginning in December 2015 represent an important opportunity to move forward from the tragic violence that has devastated the country. However, to ensure a stable, tolerant and diverse settlement, these processes must be truly inclusive for all of the CAR's citizens, including its minorities. Transitional authorities, the international community and the post-election government must therefore take every possible step to ensure that any settlement is underpinned by equality, conciliation and a comprehensive social and political framework to end the conflict's legacy of discrimination and division.

What does leadership look like to you?
Dec 14, 2018CoalitionWILD, Featured, Talking WILD
by Crista Valentino
CoalitionWILD Director
For CoalitionWILD members, leadership begins every morning they wake up committed to taking action to protect Earth.
Facing daunting challenges doesn't start when young people step out their front doors. It starts the moment they open their eyes. A majority of young people passionate about creating environmental change are working alone, in isolation, often in areas disconnected from the rest of the world. They lack access to resources, formal education, and information. Their confidence wanes, they're filled with self-doubt, and they believe their voice and their efforts don't matter because they don't matter. They have been told time and time and time again that they are a millennial – they are self-absorbed, apathetic, disengaged, and entitled. They hear that they are too connected to their devices to be connected to the Earth so often that they begin believing it's true, so they begin believing they can't possibly make a difference.
But despite the challenges, many persist – investing their life energy in creating a better world. Leaders like Sarah, a CoalitionWILD Ambassador from Nepal.
Sarah has lived in Pokhara, Nepal for 5 years. She moved there from the Southeast United States after developing an image-based mobile application in partnership with the IUCN Nepal to engage local fishers in citizen science to save the Ganges river.
After working in the field for years, Sarah was finding it increasingly difficult to make progress in protecting the watershed, expand educational programs and impact, and find funding for these projects. She knew the cause was important, but she was losing motivation from the constant uphill battle.
In 2016, Sarah became a CoalitionWILD Ambassador. Using CoalitionWILD's resources, she began reimagining how she could conserve the threatened watershed of the Karnali-Mohana river basin while financing expanded data acquisition and educational initiatives throughout Nepal.
Local River Guide © Sarah Levine
With new tools and renewed passion, Sarah founded the Himalayan Outdoor Center (HOC) which brings tourists to the Himalayas on river, trekking, and mountain biking expeditions of the watershed led by local guides. Ten percent of each expedition goes directly to freshwater biodiversity conservation in the Himalayas. HOC has become a multifaceted solution that combines conservation, ecotourism, education, and community enhancement.
CoalitionWILD seeks out rising leaders on the edge of making a difference and instills in them the skills, the knowledge, and the confidence to be a leader. Not just one time, not just in their community, and not just for the immediate problem they face, but to be a leader globally, for the planet, for a lifetime.
Sarah knew the importance of biodiversity and watershed conservation in these key areas of Nepal. Through CoalitionWILD's Ambassador program, Sarah gained access to the tools and conviction she needed to bring her vision of conservation and education to life.
Sarah is just one of hundreds who have grown into strong leaders through CoalitionWILD and is a shining example of the power of young people with the resources and courage to change the world.
For CoalitionWILD, it isn't our job to save someone or to change someone. We are not giving a hand out. We are reaching back to a hand that is reaching out for us, and in that hand we are placing empowerment.

Apple's Self Service Repair unlikely to impact iPhone upgrade cycle, study finds
AppleInsider Staff | Nov 19, 2021
A study published on Thursday takes a closer look at the impact Apple's new Self Service Repair might have on iPhone's average lifecycle.
Apple this week announced the Self Service Repair program, an initiative that will allow customers access to parts and tools to perform common iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 repairs like display, battery and camera replacements. The company plans to expand support to M1 Macs at a later date.
It was a surprising about-face for the tech giant, which for years has railed against the right-to-repair movement citing consumer safety and security risks.
Consumer Intelligence Research Partners delved into the implications of Apple's repair policy reversal, with a focus on how access to parts might impact sales of new iPhones. Specifically, the study takes a look at aggregate screen and battery conditions as predictors of demand for Self Service Repair, which in turn offers an indication of potential upgrade cycle disruptions.
Pulling from a survey of 2,000 U.S. Apple customers who purchased an iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple Watch during the 12-month period ending in September, the research firm concludes that only a "small fraction" of users will use Self Service Repair to postpone a new iPhone purchase.
"Based on what consumers say about the condition of the old iPhones they are retiring, it seems that relatively few owners would use the Self Service Repair program to postpone their next iPhone purchase," said Josh Lowitz, CIRP Partner and Co-Founder. "Clearly, Apple's ongoing efforts to improve display durability and battery quality have paid off, even though consumers continue to complain, especially about battery life. Based on what consumers say about the condition of their old iPhones, most new iPhone buyers have more than adequately useable phones."
Some 6% of respondents said their iPhone screen was cracked and unusable, a condition that would necessitate replacement or repair, while 12% reported a cracked but usable display. Battery life was a more pressing issue, with 14% of owners surveyed saying their battery was depleted to the point where they needed to charge every couple of hours.
Aside from relatively long-lasting hardware, CIRP points out that iPhone owners have a number of reasons to upgrade from current hardware. Each successive iPhone iteration brings processor and camera improvements, while recent updates like iPhone 13 have increased internal storage capacities to a maximum of 1TB with iPhone 13 Pro.

I remember this with Macs and other computers. There was a lot of talk about upgradability, A lot of people here and on other sites saying how critical it was to be able to add RAM, or replace drives, and such. But the fact was they were the minority. Most people would buy a computer, use it until it didn't do what they wanted any more, and then replace it. I suspect most people upgrade their phone, not because they have to, but because they want to. They don't want to repair their phones any more than they want to repair their car, or their furnace, or put new shingles on their roof.
techaccident
Agree with @DAlseth. This will delight a very small number of dedicated DIY folks, but won't make any significant real-world difference for the same reason that having wrenches and pipes at Home Depot doesn't threaten plumbers.
I'm an engineer and I absolutely don't want to fix my own phone, car, dishwasher or laptop, etc. That doesn't sound like fun, and the time alone negates any value.
Xed
What kind of study could they have done in a day? I took longer to write a HS research paper and that was mostly regurgitating other people's research (with citations, of course).
lmasanti
This has begun with iPhone 12 & 13 because they are the ones on production. Same with future M1s.
But if they open soon parts for 5/6 years old models —specially batteries— it will rise the number of people wishing to do that —of course, self repair will always be low—.
Also, they will do it with the M1s. This devices are 'a full computer in the SoC' so… no RAM/SSD upgrade possible. Just monitor, audio, batteries.
As far as —I think— William Gallagher said, you must pay full in advance and then bring back the broken part for a payback. I do not know what would happen if you do not bring back the part, but it would be the way to get a M1 SoC… to use in other places. (Apple maybe won't sell SoCs!)
baconstang
I'm on my 5th iPhone. I started with a 4s and now have a 12 mini.
I have never needed to repair or replace anything on any of them.
So, I'm pretty indifferent about the repair thing on iPhones.
I have, however, added RAM to to my iMacs.
The money I saved buying the minimum amount of RAM and upgrading later, allowed me to max the CPU and GPU.

BIG news... The launch of MyBEER!
Phew. I'm exhausted writing this. Which means my teams at Prezence and Quirk must be equally exhausted. And it's only Thursday. Had to schedule this post because tomorrow, I drive up to the Clarens Beer Fest to launch MyBEER with our brave and pioneering sponsors, SAB.
I wanted to give you some behind-the-scenes context on this blog. So, no official schwarmy press releases, just some cool insight about a product that we're all really proud of.

Cutting through the clutter. The power of micro communities.
I've been thinking about this for a while. The Internet (especially social media channels) are just too damn loud. Messaging overload is an understatement. We're deluged with communication. Multiple social networks, multiple messaging platforms, emails, phone calls, voicemails, advertising, television, radio - it's a little scary to be honest.
And brands have to play in this mess. They have to find a way to stand out, to "cut through the clutter" as the saying goes. How? By being valuable and useful - sure. By being emotional, remarkable, fun... Sure. But when everyone is trying to be that, it's hard to tell the good from the bad. Which makes it hard to care. Which makes it hard to engage.
I remember having this debate on the ZA Tech Show when Siri came out.Were we moving into an age of vastly different interfaces into technology. Mouse became touch became voice. But voice doesn't work everywhere - imagine repeating your request for Siri to deliver a certain sports score, 3 times at high volume in the middle of a crowded restaurant. Still a way to go.
But touch could very well become gesture. Not on a tablet, but in the air around you.
Whatever happens, one thing I know, is that the mouse has really been iterated in 20 years. Sure touch is good, but the vast majority of us still use a mouse/trackpad for 90% of work activity. It's ripe for a change.

National Restaurant Company Settles FTC Charges for Deceptive Gift Card Sales
Company Must Restore Fees Deducted From Cards
For Release
Darden Restaurants Inc., which owns restaurant chains Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Smokey Bones, and Bahama Breeze, has agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that it engaged in deceptive practices in advertising and selling its gift cards. As part of the settlement, Darden will restore fees that were deducted from consumers' gift cards and disclose fees or expiration dates in future gift card sales. This is the agency's second law enforcement action involving allegedly deceptive gift card sales.
"The FTC works to make sure consumers have the facts they need to make smart decisions, no matter what they're buying," said Lydia Parnes, Director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection. "When it comes to gift cards, issuers can't gloss over key information. They must clearly and prominently disclose fees and restrictions that affect the use of their gift cards."
According to the FTC's complaint, Darden advertised its gift cards on television and radio, and in its restaurants and Web sites. Darden represented that consumers could redeem the cards to buy goods or services at its restaurants equal to the card's monetary value. But Darden did not disclose adequately the "dormancy fees" that would be deducted after a certain period of time. For cards sold before February 2004, after 15 months of non-use, a $1.50 dormancy fee was deducted from the card's balance for each month of inactivity; for cards sold after February 2004, the monthly fee was deducted after 24 months of non-use.
In many instances, the Commission alleges, consumers did not learn of the fee until they attempted to use their gift cards and learned that they had little or no remaining value.
The Commission's complaint alleges that Darden and co-respondents GMRI Inc. and
Darden GC Corp. inadequately disclosed the fee by noting it in fine print on the back of the card,obscured by miscellaneous other information; marketing a transparent Red Lobster Gift Card with a red lobster on the front that further obscures the disclosure; marketing cards in restaurants
without notifying consumers of the fee; and marketing cards on Web sites without disclosing the fee. As of October 2006, Darden stopped charging a dormancy fee on all Darden gift cards.
The proposed settlement requires Darden to disclose any automatic fee or expiration date clearly and prominently in future advertising, at point of sale, and on the card, and prohibits the company from collecting any fee on cards activated before the order is approved by the Commission. The settlement also requires Darden to restore to each card any dormancy fees that were assessed and publicize the restoration program on its Web sites for two years. Darden has already completed the process of restoring all fees on cards. Consumers may simply present their card at any Darden restaurant to receive the card's value with the dormancy fees restored.
The FTC acknowledges the invaluable assistance of the Montgomery County, Maryland, Division of Consumer Affairs. Its 2006 annual report on gift cards is available at http://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/content/ocp/giftcardreportfinal2006.pdf.
The Commission vote to accept the administrative complaint and consent order for public comment was 5-0.
The FTC will publish an announcement regarding the agreement in the Federal Register shortly. The agreement will be subject to public comment for 30 days, beginning today and continuing through May 2, after which the Commission will decide whether to make it final. Comments should be addressed to the FTC, Office of the Secretary, Room H-135, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20580. The FTC requests that any comment filed in paper form near the end of the public comment period be sent by courier or overnight service, if possible, because U.S. postal mail in the Washington area and at the Commission is subject to delay due to heightened security precautions.
NOTE: Consent agreements are for settlement purposes only and do not constitute an admission by the defendant of a law violation. When the Commission issues a consent order on a final basis, it carries the force of law with respect to future actions. Each violation of such an order may result in a civil penalty of $11,000.
Copies of the complaint, proposed consent agreement, and an analysis of the agreement to
aid in public comment are available from the FTC's Web site at http://www.ftc.gov and also from the FTC's Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580. The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices in the marketplace and to provide information to help consumers spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint in English or Spanish (bilingual counselors are available to take complaints), or to get free information on any of 150 consumer topics, call toll-free, 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357), or use the complaint form at http://www.ftc.gov. The FTC enters Internet, telemarketing, identity theft, and other fraud-related complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a
secure, online database available to thousands of civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad.

HIV mother told to test baby
The High Court ruled that the baby should be tested for HIV
Three Court of Appeal judges have ruled that the baby of an HIV positive mother must be tested for the virus.
The woman was seeking leave to appeal against a High Court ruling earlier this month after Camden Council in north London brought a case against her.
The High Court said that it was in the interests of the five-month-old baby girl, whose mother is HIV positive, that she be tested and concluded that medical evidence in favour of testing was "overwhelming".
Appeal judge Lady Justice Butler-Sloss said that, although the couple - who were not present at the Court of Appeal - were not strictly in contempt of court, they should "examine their consciences as to whether they ought to be going off like this with their child and behaving in a somewhat irresponsible way".
Dr Navelli, a solicitor during the case
She added that the parents' rejection of orthodox medical opinion "cannot stand against the right of this child to be properly cared for in every sense".
"This child has the right to have sensible and responsible people find out whether she is or is not HIV positive, either as a result of being born to her mother or as a result of breastfeeding," she stated, adding that the baby had a one in four chance of being infected.
The girl's parents are opposed to testing and think it will lead to further state intervention in the way they choose to bring up their child.
If positive, for example, she could be given anti-HIV drugs. If negative, her mother could be banned from breastfeeding her child.
Doctors say HIV can be passed from mother to baby in breast milk and they argue that anti-HIV drugs can save the child's life if she tests positive.
However, the couple do not believe HIV causes Aids and are firmly in favour of alternative medicine.
The father practises alternative treatment and the mother is reported to be healthy, despite her HIV diagnosis.
At the weekend, the two were reported to have fled the country ahead of the 24 September date set for the baby's HIV test at Great Ormond Street Hospital.
This resulted in Camden council obtaining a court order on Friday to locate the child.
The council's housing department believes they may be at an address in London, meaning the weekend report could have been a smokescreen to avoid the test.
Lady Justice Butler-Sloss said: "I hope they have the good sense to bring the child back, because to be on the run is not very sensible."
The case has divided HIV charities. The Terrence Higgins Trust says testing will help guarantee that the baby receives the best treatment available, if necessary.
But Denise McDowell, services manager with Manchester-based George House Trust, said: _The courts have shown that informed consent is of no interest to them. �
"What is also clear is that using the law in this way is likely to drive HIV underground.
"This is completely counter-productive, helping neither parents or children affected by HIV and threatening to stigmatise all who are worried about HIV._
The trust says the case has wider implications and could, for example, deny all parents the choice of refusing vaccinations for their children.

Q: Conveter RGB to HEX code in android i want to convert RGB color to HEX code so below is my code
ColorPickerDialog colorPickerDialog = new ColorPickerDialog(getActivity(), initialColor, new ColorPickerDialog.OnColorSelectedListener() {

                @Override
                public void onColorSelected(int color) {

                    String rgbString = "R: " + Color.red(color) + " B: " + Color.blue(color) + " G: " + Color.green(color);
                    int[] c={Color.red(color),Color.green(color),Color.blue(color)};
                    int sd=getHexColor(c);
                    System.out.println("HEx "+sd);
                }

            });
            colorPickerDialog.show();

getHexColor function
public     int getHexColor(int[] color) {
    return android.graphics.Color.rgb(color[0], color[1], color[2]);
}

When i run above code it gave me hex code like below
   -16569089  but i want like this   #23ab34

any idea how can i solve this problem?your all suggestion are appreciable.

A: You can use
String hex = String.format("#%02x%02x%02x", r, g, b);

A: Android color value contains alpha value. ARGB
you can convert color.
int intColor = -16569089;
String hex = Integer.toHexString(intColor);

//prints ff032cff , A:ff, R:3, G:2c, B: ff
System.out.println(hex);

// remove alpha channel
int intColorRGB = intColor & 0x00ffffff;
String hex2 = Integer.toHexString(intColorRGB);

// prints 32cff, ignore leading 0 (int value)
System.out.println(hex2);

Q. Tell me about yourself. A. This is the dreaded, classic, open-ended interview question and likely to be among the first. It's your chance to introduce your qualifications, good work habits, etc. Keep it mostly work and career related.


The meeting was called to order at 4:05 by Chairman Ron Schmidt. All Commissioners were present. Commissioner Short would like added to the minutes the RCW that concems the release of meeting minutes for public record.
Note was made that certification of the election, and therefore the District's M&O levy results, will be made on Tuesday the 25 by the County Auditor. The certification let us know what funds we will have to work with nsxt year for our budget. Commissioner Short requests a copy of the proposed budget used for the M&O proposal. The Board went into Executive Session at 4:10 to discuss property acquisition (RCW42.30.I10). They returned at 4:30.
Motion was made by Commissioner Short and seconded to wait until the M&O is certified before deciding to continue with negotiations regarding property acquisition for a sewer treatment site.
Question was asked why we would not go forward with the proposal for the property when we really do have a majority in favor for our M&O, even if it is not a supermajority as required to pass the levy. 58+% saying yes to the levy is a voiced majority. Comment was made that we will never know how many property owners are for or against a whole lake sewer system until we officially propose the formation of the LID for a whole lake sewer system. If the offer is made contingent on the formation of the LID, then if the LID does not go through there will be no obligation. Question.....why wait?? Note was made that the LID process is actually more accurate for our circumstances as it is put before all the District property owners and not just the registered voters. Request was made that all 300+ property owners be allowed to voice their opinion and determine whether the project goes ahead. M&O request is predicated on ONLY registered voters where the LID process includes ALL property owners.
The use of the "Vost Stystem" has been brought up as an option for our waste water treatment system. Andy has been calling the company with questions. His main concern is that the system only provides the secondary treatrnent and not what will be done with the treated effluent. The owner said "dump the water on the ground or in a creek". DOE will not allow either of these nor into a trench as suggested. Even with treated water you do not want to discharge into a drainfield or into the ground. The president of the company finally called Andy two days ago and said they are not interested in selling their system to us. They will not be involved with us. Andy says that land application is truly most effective way to deal with effluent. We can even apply a certain amount of effluent in the winter to evergreen tree stands. We want to minimize operational costs. Rich Prange questionedthe20% Engineering fee and l0% Contingency fee that is in the Comprehensive Plan. Andy says that these fees will be negotiated when the project goes through. Question posed as to who covers an "unknown in the road"? Andy says that's why they try to estimate as best as possible. . Andy said that he picked a random sample out of DOE files one day and the averageengineering fee was 24-25%. Comment was made that to offset the recession that President-elect Obama may be setting up grants available for infrastructure that could assist us. Comment was made that assuming that Stimson is not going to sell the property to someone else while we "wait and see" is ludicrous. Question was asked what the District did to assist the passage of the M&O aside from sending out an informational letter? Commissioner Storms comments that Sacheen Lake Estates is coming up for Sheriffs sale in january.
Motion was still on the floor that the Board wait until after the election is certified to decide whether to proceed with an offer to Stimson. The motion was clarified that it wait until the December 4 meeting. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Storms.
Question was asked as to how the District is billed by Mike Ormsby. Billing toward the "Sewer LID" is being carried by Mr. Ormsby. When the project goes forward we will see billing built into project loans and payback. Billings for other issues are invoiced to the District as they occur. Concem was expressed that the Board is not making policy decisions that need to be made before the project costs can be determined.
Letter from Brian & Carol Hood in response to annexation request. Letter from Don Hill, Sacheen Betterment Association President with proposal for beaver tube maintenance. (Commissioner Short requests copy of letter) Motion made by Commissioner Schmidt to allow volunteers from the Betterment Association to build and install additional trash racks and maintain tubes in lieu of paid employees, but allow for return of employees if needed. Motion was seconded and unanimously passed. Don Hill states that the SBA Board has taken the position that they support the construction of a whole lake sewer svstem.
The next meeting will be December 4 @7:00.

How to Obtain a Special Exception
The Zoning Board of Adjustment may grant a special exception if the applicant shows the proposed use will not cause: (a) congestion in streets/transit systems; (b) Overcrowding the land; (c) Impairing light/air to adjacent property; (d) Burdening public facilities; (e) Impairing or permanently injuring the use of adjacent properties; (f) Endangering the public health or safety; or (g) Inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
If a special exception is required, the first step is to apply for a use registration permit from the Department of Licenses and Inspection. The application will be "referred" to the Zoning Board. The applicant has 30 days to appeal to the Zoning Board, which will schedule a hearing to decide whether to grant the special exception. Corporations must be represented by an attorney to appear before the Zoning Board.
Before going before the Zoning Board, the applicant must line up support from the neighborhood. In addition to circulating a petition to neighbors on surrounding blocks, the applicant must notify and meet with the registered community organization for the neighborhood where the property is located.
Each community group has their own requirements for applicants. Most require architectural drawings depending on the proposal. The Applicant must work to gain the support of the community before the hearing before the ZBA in order to maximize the chance of being granted a Special Exception. Even with support of the registered community organization, some neighbors may present evidence that the proposed use is likely to cause a detrimental impact on the health, safety, and welfare of the neighborhood.
Gaining the support of both the neighborhood group and the Zoning Board is a unique and difficult process that requires an experienced professional. Before beginning the process, you should seriously consider hiring an experienced zoning attorney.

Q: Get windows VPN adapters with -AllUserConnections parameter I need to get all VPN adapters programatically with C#
It works with rasphone.pbk
Like in this answer: Get Windows VPN Interfaces in C#
Problem i found is when you create VPN from powershell with -AllUserConnections (all users can use vpn form login screen). It's not saved in that rasphone.pbk
The connection is saved somewhere in global phonebook due to msdocs. I was trying but was not able to find it.
PS command i use to add VPN:
Add-VpnConnection -Name " + VPNName + " -ServerAddres " + serveraddress + " -TunnelType L2tp -L2tpPsk " + L2tpPSK + " -Force -AuthenticationMethod MSChapv2 -EncryptionLevel Optional -AllUserConnection

Any idea where could it be? Or any idea how to check for VPN adapters with this parameter? Maybe with WMI?

A: Ok found out only possible way is to use powershell command
Get-VpnConnection -AllUserConnection

and return output of commands into your C# app
//EDIT
Found location of global phonebook. It is here:

Fresno State defensive back Juju Hughes (23) intercepts Boise State quarterback Brett Rypien in the end zone as running back Alexander Mattison (22) is unable to get to the ball on Friday, Nov. 9, 2018, at Albertsons Stadium in Boise, Idaho. (Darin Oswald/Idaho Statesman/TNS)
'Dogs fall in familiar territory, putting their fate on the line
The Fresno State football team put its 8-1 record on the line away from home in a Mountain West Conference showdown against the Boise State Broncos that had more than bragging rights at stake.
The Broncos once again walked off their home field with the score in their favor, 24-17, giving the Bulldogs their second loss of the season and first defeat in Mountain West Conference play.
For the 'Dogs it was a game that, if won, would likely solidify them in the eyes of playoff voters as one of the best teams in the nation and for the Broncos a win would get them back on track for a conference title shot at the end of the season.
The Broncos got on the scoreboard first with a field goal, giving them a three-point lead that they would take into the second quarter. The Bulldogs got on the scoreboard in the second quarter with a 3-yard touchdown by wide receiver Keesean Johnson from quarterback Marcus McMaryion.
For the remainder of the first half, the 'Dogs seemed to have control of the game, with their defense forcing several punts and an interception in the last minutes of the first half. The offense took over for the 'Dogs and scored a field goal, giving them a seven-point lead, 10-3, going into halftime.
For the second half of the game, Fresno State again started quickly, going down the field in its first drive of the half and scoring a touchdown thanks to a 1-yard run by running back Ronnie Rivers.
From that moment on, the Broncos would take over the game completely, shutting down the Bulldogs offense and making the 'Dogs defense stay on the field for an extended time. Boise State would score once more in the third quarter and then twice in the fourth quarter, taking a 24-17 lead.
The Bulldogs had a final chance in the last minutes of the game, but were unable to convert a fourth down, giving the ball back to the Broncos. The 'Dogs defense was able to force a stop of the Broncos offense in a fourth-and-one yard to go situation, but when the ball was measured, the officiating crew gave the first down to Boise State, effectively ending the game.
Next up for the 'Dogs, they will face San Diego State University at home for the top spot in the West division of the Mountain West Conference.

Writing Arctic Disaster: Authorship and Exploration by Adriana Craciun (review)

Writing Arctic Disaster: Authorship and Exploration by Adriana Craciun
Adriana Craciun, Writing Arctic Disaster: Authorship and Exploration (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2016). Pp. 326; 39 b/w illus. £96.00.
In September 2014, a team of government and private entities located John Franklin's long-lost ship, the Erebus. While many celebrated the find, Adriana Craciun sees the continuing search for Franklin as a problematic to be unpacked, another example in a long line of appropriations of the voyage and its relics for sovereign, nationalist, and economic reasons. In Writing Arctic Disaster, Craciun seeks to historicize the Victorian obsession with the man, the expedition, and its various inscriptions, uncovering in the process the changing approaches to Arctic voyaging and authorship that shaped European understanding of the region from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries.
Craciun's approach is richly interdisciplinary. She employs an array of theories and methodologies in her quest to free Arctic exploration of the shadow of Franklin, including Spivak's analysis of the subaltern, Nietzsche's tripartite definition of historiography, and Certeau's concept of library navigation. The latter conceives of voyages, and books about them, as setting out and returning—a line of circles that creates a metanarrative of progress, with each voyage building on those that preceded it. To avoid the inherent teleology of this model, Craciun organizes her chapters in what she calls a recursive fashion; she avoids a chronological structure in order to derive a "genealogy of exploration cultures" (21) that will "defamiliarize both the history of authorship and the history of exploration" and recognize "the powerful gyre of library navigation" (22). Thus her project is both deconstructive and constructive, a dual purpose that at times causes tension in the organization and analysis of the book.
Craciun's narrative, therefore, starts at the end: that is, with the relics that circulated as more and more searches sought the remains of Franklin's crew and ships. Although the searchers sought the Holy Grail of voyage artifacts, the written logs and accounts, they only ever recovered one written document, the Victory Point Record. They also brought back a range of items whose meanings proved "polysemic and culturally hybrid" (80), a product of their circulation from, and [End Page 349] use within, London, the Arctic, and back again. Over time the sheer number and collective ambiguity of the objects, not to mention the exhibitions that displayed them, effectively diminished the collection as a whole. The relics lost the sacred aura sought by Franklin's wife and his advocates. However, the search for them had installed Franklin himself, along with his French predecessor in the Pacific, La Perouse, as the "unwitting co-creator of a new culture of disaster relics enshrined in public museums and collected by a new class of entrepreneurial relic hunter" (66).
Chapter 2 takes the reader back to Franklin's first expedition of 1819–22, which produced an authorized account that Craciun uses to elaborate what she terms the polar print or publishing nexus, commanded by Admiralty officials and their publisher, John Murray, and aided by officials in the Colonial Office. Together, they steered a censorious publication machine responsible for the conferral of single-author status on book objects that were, in reality, created by a collective. While this form of publishing was more institutional than its literary counterparts, it was not disconnected from trends in literary culture, such as the Gothic, as Craciun shows in her discussion of Shelley's Frankenstein (which Murray rejected). Previously published in article form, the elaboration of this nexus is instructive for the study of print and literary culture, although more attention to the institutions involved—the Admiralty especially—might have added more nuance to a model that is presented as static and uncompromising.
If the exploration of the early nineteenth century is defined by the Explorer-Author, earlier exploration cultures, specifically the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) in the eighteenth century and the resource-seeking expeditions of Martin Frobisher in the sixteenth, included no such concept. In chapters 3 and 4, Craciun explores the inscriptions left by employees of the HBC in the Arctic, in the Company's London archive, and, rarely...

Grell Audio TWS/1 review
Review, Audio, Earbuds
There's a new true wireless earbuds player in town Epblogs goal is to be the tech side of trust. We are proud of our independence and of our Grell Audio TWS/1 review thorough testing methods, in which we take our time with a product. We regularly check our test reports for changes and thus keep them up-to-date over a longer period of time – regardless of when a device was released.guaranteed reviews . Trust our Epblogs comprehensive reviews. We tested the products over a longer period of time and were able to see how they cope with everyday tasks. This is how we help you to find the best product for your read our guaranteed reviews .
The Grell Audio TWS/1 are here to shake up the big names in wireless earbuds, and they succeed. They sound fantastic, and we can easily forgive slightly weak noise cancellation when the music is this good.
Grell Audio TWS/1 Specs
Acoustic design in-ear, true wireless
Weight 7.3g per earbud
Drivers 10mm full-range dynamic
Connectivity Bluetooth 5.2 with support for SBC, AAC, aptX Adaptive and LHDC
Charging USB-C, Qi-certified wireless support
Grell Audio TWS/1: price and release date
$199 / £179 / AU$299
Released in May 2022
The Grell Audio TWS/1 true wireless in-ear headphones are on sale now, and they're priced at £179 or so in the United Kingdom. That means $199 in the United States and AU$299 in Australia. Eurozone customers are looking at €199 or thereabouts.
You're spoiled for choice where products like this, that cost money like this, are concerned. Brands both colossal and tiny want to sell you their particular variation on this theme so, despite the profile of its main man, Grell Audio needs more than just a reputational aura to make a case for the TWS/1.
Grell Audio TWS/1: design and features
Bluetooth 5.2 with extensive codec support
10mm full-range drivers
Active noise-cancelling with 'noise annoyance reduction'
'Mildly interesting' where the design of true wireless in-ear headphones is concerned basically means 'far more interesting than most'. And thanks to their circular body, extremely brief stem, and nice combination of aluminium in a black-and-grey finish, the TWS/1 are definitely mildly interesting.
They're also relatively big, mind you, and at 7.3g per earbud they're also relatively heavy. Thanks to some carefully ergonomic sculpting of the business side of the earbuds, plus a wide selection of foam and silicone eartips, though, the Grell Audio are simple to position securely and comfortably.
The TWS/1 arrive in some eco-credible unbleached packaging, and are stored in an aluminium charging case that both looks and feels good. The earbuds will last for between six and eight hours between charges (depending on whether active noise-cancellation is switched on or off) and the case has another four full charges in it. An all-in battery life of somewhere between 34 and 45 hours is therefore achievable, which is emphatically not to be sniffed at. Charging takes place using either the USB-C input on the case or wirelessly using any Qi-certified pad.
The Grell Audio use Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connectivity, with support for AAC, aptX Adaptive and LHDC codecs as well as good old-fashioned SBC. Once the audio information is on board, it's delivered to the listener's ears via a couple of bespoke 10mm full-range dynamic drivers.
As far as control goes, you've a few options. A full suite of voice assistants is available (and I mean full – as well as The Big Three, the TWS/1 are compatible with Bixby and Cortana), and there's also compatibility with the third-party SoundID control app. Here's where you can make EQ adjustments, take part in a listening test that helps create a custom EQ setting, get firmware updates and so on. Unlike some alternative designs, though, there's no facility for adjusting active noise-cancellation beyond 'off' or 'on'.
Each earbud has a capacitive touch-surface too, though they could be more reliable in their responses. Touch-control is available for 'play/pause', 'skip forwards/backwards', 'volume up/down', 'noise-cancelling on/off/transparency', 'answer/end/reject call' and 'NAR on/off'. And yes, that last one is worth explaining.
Grell Audio maintains active noise-cancellation is most effective when dealing with low-frequency sound, making mid- and high-frequency sound more prominent as a consequence. Noise Annoyance Reduction constantly scans the frequency spectrum and adapts ANC to keep that annoyance down to a minimum.
Grell Audio TWS/1: audio performance
Full-scale, dynamic and involving sound
Naturalistic tonality
So-so noise-cancellation
If for no other reason that it's the shorter of the lists, and by a distance, let's start with the things the TWS/1 are no better than average at. This won't take long.
Basically, these earbuds are pretty ordinary when it comes to noise-cancellation – they won't be making our best noise-cancelling earbuds roundup, although they most certainly will join our best earbuds list.
Back to the ANC, though, and they'll reduce external sound a fair bit, of course, but if you compare them to the real experts where this is concerned (Bose, with its Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, mostly, and also Sony's WF-1000XM4) they're not all that impressive. And while reducing noise annoyance is a commendable ambition, in practice 'noise annoyance reduction' doesn't reduce annoyance all that much. Perhaps down to 'mild irritation'.
But when it comes to actually making music, 'better than average' is to understate the TWS/1 ability more than somewhat. Given the highest-quality stuff to work with, such as a TIDAL Masters stream of Jack Harlow's Come Home the Kids Miss You, the Grell Audio are a convincing and absorbing listen.
The soundstage they create is big in every direction, properly organised and easy to understand. Separation is impressive, but so is integration – so the sensation of unity is strong, even when listening to recordings that, like this one, are partly machine- and sample-derived. And as a consequence, proper insight into a recording is available, easily and without impacting on its coherence.
Tonality is nicely judged, impressively even from the top of the frequency range to the bottom, and never less than convincing. Low frequencies are deep, detailed and well controlled, and at the opposite end treble sounds attack crisply. In between, there's more than enough detail available to make a singer's emotion and intention plain.
Switching to Give Me Daughters by Jonathan Fire*Eater allows the TWS/1 to showcase their dynamic potency, energy and rhythmic certainty. As far as combining out-and-out punch with unarguable control, the Grell Audio are as good as anything around. They don't over- or understate any area of the frequency range, they offer uncolored tonality and they seem to authentically enjoy all your favourite music. So unless you give as much weight to noise-cancellation as to sound-production, the TWS/1 deserve serious consideration.


Greek-Italian artist Angelo Plessas' interactive websites (Angeloplessas.com) integrate elements of drawing, sound, Flash animation and innovative HTML coding. Each of his online two-dimensional "sculptures" is sealed with a domain name that playfully evokes the language of philosophy, literature and drama. Challenging concepts of space and ownership on the Internet, Plessas' websites are, like graffiti bombed on a public wall, the acts of a guerrilla artist intervening in public space.
Plessas has come a long way since his first and ongoing aesthetic project: documenting face-like compositions he discovers in random configurations of objects and architecture (InternationalPortraitGallery.com). He officially launched his artistic career in 2001 when artist and curator Miltos Manetas selected his work for the Internet-inspired group show Biennale.net at Deitch Projects, New York. Now, the artist is exploring projects that take on a curatorial scope, including the recent one-day video projection extravaganza Bring Your Own Beamer at the Kunsthalle Athena.
With the lines between his online and offline work becoming increasingly blurred, Plessas is evolving in the manner of his medium. As the Internet expands, so does Plessas' practice, and as the artist matures, perhaps he might shed light on where the Internet might take us. Sitting at his seaside apartment in Athens, Plessas takes me on a journey through his virtual universe, which ultimately leads right back to reality itself…whatever that might be, or could become.

Carriera

Club
Wilkinson nacque a Stone e frequentò l'Academy dello Stoke City. Nel 2001 firmò il primo contratto con i Potters. Effettuò il debutto per lo Stoke il 16 ottobre 2001 in un incontro per il Football League Trophy 2001-2002 contro il Blackpool, subentrando a Clive Clarke per il quarto d'ora finale. Il suo impatto in prima squadra sarebbe potuto essere maggiore, ma degli infortuni lo hanno tenuto fuori per tutta la stagione seguente. Dovette così aspettare fino al campionato 2003-2004 per giocare nuovamente, quando fu impiegato nel primo turno di Football League Cup 2003-2004 contro il Rochdale.

A novembre 2003 fu ceduto in prestito al Telford United, nella Conference National, con l'obiettivo di fargli guadagnare un po' d'esperienza in squadra. Fu espulso nel pareggio a reti inviolate contro lo Shrewsbury Town nel mese di dicembre. Nonostante questo, il prestito fu esteso fino a febbraio, ma lo Stoke City richiamò il calciatore a gennaio. Tornò così ai Potters e disputò tre match di campionato: tra queste ci fu il debutto contro il Walsall del 31 gennaio, quando sostituì Lewis Neal. Il 4 maggio giocò la prima gara di campionato, contribuendo al successo per quattro a uno sul West Bromwich Albion.

L'anno seguente fu ceduto in prestito al Partick Thistle. In Scozia, realizzò la prima rete professionistica, ai danni del Clyde. Tornato allo Stoke nel mese di gennaio, giocò una partita contro il Millwall prima di essere prestato nuovamente, stavolta allo Shrewsbury Town per il resto della stagione. Wilkinson si impose nella prima squadra dello Stoke City nel 2005, collezionando sei apparizioni finché non si procurò un grave infortunio ai legamenti della caviglia ad aprile, nel match contro il Southampton: questo problema lo tenne fuori per diversi mesi.

Durante l'estate 2006, il difensore rinnovò il suo contratto con lo Stoke City per altre due stagioni. Una volta recuperato dal suo infortunio, fu ceduto in prestito al Blackpool. Il trasferimento sarebbe potuto diventare definitivo, ma i Potters rifiutarono un'offerta di 150.000 sterline da parte del Blackpool per il calciatore.

Nel campionato 2007-2008, Wilkinson giocò 20 partite e contribuì alla promozione in Premier League dello Stoke City. Il 26 dicembre 2008 fu espulso nella sfida contro il Manchester United: nonostante questo, mantenne il posto da titolare in squadra a scapito del capitano Andy Griffin ed occupò il posto sulla fascia destra difensiva per il resto della stagione. A febbraio 2009 rivelò di voler chiudere la carriera con lo Stoke City. Le sue buone prestazioni portarono la dirigenza della squadra ad offrirgli un nuovo contratto. L'8 luglio 2009 firmò un accordo che lo legò allo Stoke City per altre tre stagioni.

Dopo l'arrivo di Robert Huth, Wilkinson perse il posto da titolare. Giocò nel successo per uno a zero in coppa contro il Portsmouth, a causa dell'assenza di Abdoulaye Diagne-Faye: fu nominato migliore in campo e realizzò la prima rete della sua carriera per lo Stoke City, superando due difensori e battendo poi il portiere Jamie Ashdown. Wilkinson descrisse quella prestazione come la migliore della sua carriera. Wilkinson fu espulso per la seconda volta con questa maglia, quando lo Stoke superò due a uno il Portsmouth a Fratton Park, quando commise due falli da ammonizione su Aruna Dindane. Wilkinson giocò la 100ª partita per il club in data 26 settembre 2010, contro il Newcastle United. Il 21 aprile 2011 prolunga il suo contratto dal 2012 al 30 giugno 2014

Dopo essere stato prestato al Millwall, il 29 maggio 2015 il club inglese annuncia di non aver rinnovato il contratto del difensore inglese, che rimane così svincolato.
Il 30 luglio 2015 cambia idea rinnovando il contratto con lo Stoke City fino a dicembre 2015.

Chiefs Batter Bulls in Durham »
NPB Review - Central League
It has been some time since we've taken a detailed look at the NPB. Our first review will be the Central League, where they need more modashos to drive their batting averages up. A modasho is a reference to a player who gets three or more hits in a game. Currently, the Central League only has two players hitting over .300 and the player in third place is hitting less than .290. That is a paucity of offense. Check out http://yakyubaka.com/ for all your Japanese news.
Chunichi Dragons (34-21-10)
Top Offensive Players - Tony Blanco is hitting .279 with 15 homeruns and 36 RBIs. He doesn't have enough at bats to qualify for the batting title, but his homeruns and RBI production ranks in the top five. He lost the first base job to 43 year old new comer Takeshi Yamasaki at the start of the season but has reclaimed it back. He has shown that at this point in his career he is the superior offensive player. Defense is another issue. Yohei Oshima is the top hitter (.286) and is tied with Masahiro Araki (.262) for most runs scored at 28. Kazuhiro Wada (.279, 5, 28) is second on the team in RBIs.
Top Pitchers - The top pitcher for the Dragons is their closer Hitoki Iwase. He leads the Central League in saves with 24 with a 1.76 ERA. The Japanese lack the impressive whiff to innings pitched ratio of major league pitchers (30 innings pitched 17 whiffs) so unless it is one to one or greater myworld will not mention it. Shinji Tajima has been unhittable as the set-up man (4-0, 0.50, 9 holds). Their ace appears to be Soma Yamauchi (6-3, 2.26), but they also appear to be getting good production from Daisuke Yamai (2-3, 1.60), Kazuki Yoshimi (5-2, 1.83) and Kenichi Nakata (3-6, 2.22).
Foreign Aid - Jorge Sosa has also been unhittable in a setup role (2-0, 0.00, 1 save and 6 holds). He has yet to give up an earned run in 29 innings pitched (3 unearned runs).
Yomiuri Giants (33-24-6)
Top Offensive Players - The Giants domed stadium can generate a lot of offense. The biggest bat is Giants catcher Shinnosuke Abe (.318, 10, 30) who leads the Central League in hitting. He became the fourth Giant to hit ten or more homers over 12 or more consecutive seasons. Hayoto Sakamoto (.316, 7, 36) is the leader on the team in RBIs. He is also second in the Central League batting race, giving the Giants the only two players hitting over .300 in the Central League. Hisayoshi Chono (.285, 8, 29) is a young bat who will only get better with experience. He leads the team with 11 stolen bases. Shuichi Murata (.270, 4, 25) was a free agent the Giants signed away from the Bay Stars. He has been a disappointment power wise, especially when you consider he was the cleanup hitter for the WBC Japanese team.
Top Pitchers - Toshiya Sugiuchi (8-2, 1.55) has been a good free agent signing from last year's champion Softbank Hawks. He threw a no hitter earlier this season, a rare feat in the NPB. They have also been getting good starts from Tetsuya Utsumi (6-5, 1.83). The closer is Kentaro Nishimura (1-1, 1.95, 15 saves). Tetsuya Yamaguchi (0.25, 2 saves and 19 holds) has been dominant in a setup capacity. His 19 holds are tops in the Central League.
Foreign Aid - Scott Mathieson (2-0, 1.61, 1 save and 7 holds) has been a good signing from the Phillies. The NPB is not used to 95 mile per hour fastballs that have given him a 32/28 whiff to innings pitched ratio. Dennis Houlton (5-6, 3.33) was another free agent signing from the Softbank Hawks, but he has been inconsistent this year. Injuries have restricted Dicky Gonzalez to just 19 innings pitched. John Bowker (.189, 2, 7) has been a disappointment offensively. He has gotten 162 plate appearances to get it together but has failed to provide results. Edgar Gonzalez (.261, 1, has been signed to replace him and provide depth in the infield. He is the older brother of Red Sox Adrian Gonzalez.
Yakult Swallows (30-29-4)
Top Offensive Players - The Swallows have a love/hate relationship with Wladimir Balentien (.251, 18, 43). He leads the NPB in homeruns and when he is hitting he can carry the Swallows on his shoulders. When he is not hitting he is the biggest anchor in any lineup. Fortunately when he is not hitting pitchers walk him. He has 41 walks to go with his 50 strikeouts. Lastings Milledge (.265, 8, 28) has seemed to enjoy the leadoff spot for the Swallows. He is hitting .310 since hitting from the leadoff spot and his 29 runs scored is second to Balentien at 32, but he is only 4 for 9 in stolen bases. Kazuhiro Hatakeyama (.263, 4, 25) is the top Japanese player with the bat, leading the team in doubles with 11.
Top Pitchers - No real standout ace on this staff with Shohei Tateyama (5-5, 2.71), Masanori Ishikawa (5-6, 3.17) and Katsuki Akagawa (5-4, 2.74) all putting up similar performances. The closer is Tony Barnette (1-1, 2.48, 18 saves, 2 holds) who has replaced the sore armed Chang-Long Lim.
Foreign Aid - Chang-Long Lim has been the Swallows stopper for the last couple years but was going to be converted to the rotation this year. A sore arm has limited him to just seven innings, though he has yet to give up a hit in those seven innings. He is looking to pitch in the United States next year, but there is not a large market for 34 year old pitchers with sore arms. Look at the contract given to Hisashi Iwakuma for the Mariners. Orlando Roman (4-5, 2.67) is another member of the vanilla rotation. We've already talked about Milledge and Balentien on offense.
Hanshin Tigers (28-29-8)
Top Offensive Performers - Shortstop Takashi Toritani (.252, 2, 23) may be the next big Japanese bat to play in the United States. He was the top vote getter in the Central League voting by the fans. He needs to improve on those numbers if he wants to attract major league interest. Craig Brazell (.246, 7, 30) is the big RBI bat with Takahiro Arai (.248, 4, 29) close behind. Tomoaki Kanemoto (.255, 4, 19) is at that age where his offense is best given in small doses where he needs a lot of rest to keep the bat fresh.
Top Pitchers - Atsushi Nomi (5-5, 2.93) shares the ace responsibilities with Randy Messenger (4-6, 2.57). The closer is Kyuji Fujikawa (1-1, 1.90, 12 saves) while the set up man is Daiki Enokida (2-0, 0.65, 17 holds). His 17 holds are second in the Central League.
Foreign Aid - Jason Stanridge (4-4, 2.26) fits well in the Tigers three hole in the rotation. Matt Murton (.228, 2, 20) has struggled with an average almost 100 points lower than last year. He seems to be most comfortable in the leadoff spot.
Hiroshima Carp (26-32-6)
Top Offensive Performers - Nick Stavinoha (.238, 9, 24) is returning to the States for knee surgery. His season is done. Shota Dobayshi (.263, 7, 21) is trying to replace his power production until Brad Eldred arrives. Takahiro Iwamoto (.333, 3, 13) and Soichiro Amaya (.320, 3, 11) each have only under 120 at bats, but they are getting every day playing time now.
Top Pitcher Performers - They have the top pitcher in the Central League in Kenta Maeda (7-3, 1.51). He is the only pitcher in the Central League to throw more than 100 innings. Yusuke Nomura (4-3, 1.78) has been a nice surprise. Kan Otake (7-2, 2.34) matches Maeda in wins, but lacks the three complete games.
Foreign Aid - Kam Mickolio (1-3, 3.21, 5 saves, 14 holds) has been bounced around from closer to set up. Dennis Sarfate (0-4, 1.96, 9 saves) has had trouble staying healthy. Bryan Bullington (3-8, 4.14) has been a big disappointment. He is last in the league in ERA for all those Central League pitchers who qualify. With Stavinoha out for the year the Carp hope to replace him with Brad Eldred. Brad was recently released by the Detroit Tigers so he can sign a contract with the Carp.
DeNA Bay Stars (20-37-5)
Top Offensive Performers - Alex Ramirez (.276, 8, 33) was signed as a free agent from the Giants, but is starting to show his age. He has been playing so long in the NPB that he is no longer counted as a foreign player. Norihiro Nakamura (.276, 6, 29) is the other big bat to drive in runs. Not a lot left among the others to brag about.
Top Pitching Performances - Daisuke Miura (6-4, 2.71) would be an ace on many other pitching staffs. Shun Yamiguchi (0-1, 2.01, 10 saves) is an effective closer when he gets an opportunity. Not a lot of those playing for a last place team.
Foreign Aid - They seem to have trouble finding effective foreign players. Giancarlo Alvardo (1-6, 3.92) and Brandon Mann (1-5, 3.91) have been finding wins rare, but when you give up close to four runs per game in this offensively challenged league it will not result in a lot of wins.

The International Heritage Fair: Handle with Care
Last month it was time again for the International Heritage Fair that took place at the prestigious Carrousel du Louvre in Paris. More than 350 exhibitors from all over the world came together with the common aim of boosting and promoting French and international heritage.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the exhibition, the French Minister for Culture, Franck Riester, the French First Lady, Brigitte Macron, and Stéphane Bern, star TV presenter and ambassador of the French national heritage programme, were all present at the opening ceremony of this year's show.
For Global Expo Services, who have been the official transporting company of the exhibition since 2010, this year's show was special. Véronique Barlay, Project Manager Fine Arts and Events, tells us why.
"It was a busy event for us as we had a lot of customers to look after," she says. "We are used to dealing with a lot of unusual transports but this year, there was a fairly special one. In fact, we were asked to transport and set up a bas -relief coming from the collection of the Palais de Chaillot, the Museum of French Heritage and Architecture."
This very fragile plaster piece coming from St. Savin Abbey, weighs more than 400kg with a height of nearly 3m (275cm).
"No less than eight men were necessary to lift the transport box which didn't fit into the freight elevator," Véronique explains. "Then the piece had to be taken out of the box and stabilized, for which still four men were required. Of course, for such a valuable and fragile piece, we took all possibly precautionary measures, not just for the transport and set-up but also for its safekeeping at the stand during the whole exhibition."
"Due to its historic heritage, moving around the Carrousel du Louvre is not easy, so our pre-event planning has to be carried out perfectly", Véronique explains. "Access, for example, is via an underground parking with limited numbers of vehicles at the same time. But as the official partner of the exhibition, we had priority access which made things a lot easier."
Both the workshop that was looking after the restoration as well as the museum staff, who were all present all through the operation, were initially a little worried as the piece gets rarely moved. But as it got handled with special care, they were very pleased with the outcome.

Is Atrial fibrillation common in fibromyalgia patients. I have fibro and now am experiencing A Fib. Do not know what is causing this.
I believe I struggle with other things than Fibromyalgia. I wish I could get a full exam, top to the button. Most doctors just blow us off.
This sounds like what I have been suffering from for many years.I have told my doctor and other doctors when I have to go to emergency department.Every doctor I have told has said they don't know what my symptoms could be.I get very discouraged when nobody helps because it's very painful and I have to heat magic bags up and put on my neck and another for my chest.I also have difficulty when I yawn I can't close my mouth,it's awful.

This news release uses the terms "resources", "measured resources", "indicated resources" and "inferred resources". United States investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Inferred Resources are in addition to measured and indicated Resources. Further, inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Therefore, United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist, or that they can be mined legally or economically. Disclosure of "contained ounces" is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations, however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report "resources" as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources contained in this release may not be comparable to information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC.
