Archaelund new trailer and screenshots
DavidBVal
This week we released a new trailer for our game Archaelund (in development)
Exiled Kingdoms now also available as "premium" App in Play Store.
For those who prefer purchasing a "premium" app instead of using an in-app purchase to get the Full game, I uploaded a new version of Exiled Kingdoms to Android Play Store:
Exiled Kingdoms - Full - Apps on Google Play
Classic RPG with a thrilling epic story and an open world to explore.
The game is exactly the same as the "Full License" from the free app, but if offers the whole content without the need of activation. Some players seem to prefer this to in-app purchases, so I decided to publish it on the store. You can move your data between the free app and the "premium" app using the export file feature; cloud saving works, but saves are kept separately by Google since it's two different apps.
Exiled Kingdoms Update 1.3 is now released!
As of today, the update is rolling out through Steam and Play Store. It might take a few days to reach all users on Android. About the iOS release, please read this.
You can now explore the Elder Forest, Solliga, and other places that you can discover by following clues and the 7 new quests in those areas. 6 new outdoor sectors have been added to the game, plus several dungeons. There are almost 40 new items, and 5 new Skills. Overall the content is mostly designed for levels 11 to 19, but there's also some optional fights that should pose a big challenge for players of any level. All of the new content is completely free for players with a Full license.
There is a full list of the changes here, in the Changelog...
Announcement for iOS players regarding last update 1.3
As you know, I've always released updates simultaneously on all platforms. But this time, iOS players owning an iPhone or iPad will see a significant delay on the 1.3 update. Still, the current 1.2 version of the game in App Store will continue to be available for download and will work on their devices as usual.
The reason for this problem is that Apple has raised the hardware and software requirements for uploading updates to App Store, to the point where my Mac is unable to run the needed OS and XCode version (and it's not that old, really). This could be solved just by investing into new hardware and setting it up, but I fear there might also be some compatibility issues with the software libraries and frameworks I use to build Exiled Kingdoms version for iOS. EK is not made using the standard Apple development tools, and relies on third-party libraries like RoboVM which is becoming very dated...
EK Translation - We need your help, again!
Alan_SP
Translation work is done. Thank you all who helped and contributed.
It's happening again! We restarting a translation project for new content and volunteers from the community can join (or continue) to help to translate Exiled Kingdoms. You can volunteer as a translator if you're fluent in english AND any of these languages:
German (Complete!)
Italian (Complete except new content)
Polish (Complete!)
Portuguese (Complete!)
Russian (Complete except new content)
At this point we're not interested in professional translation offers. Also, we might reject...
New update also available to PC Testers (Steam)
To become a tester, simply go to your Steam Library, right-click on Exiled Kingdoms, go to Properties, Betas and use the access code: EKbetatesting
We upgraded our forum to latest Xenforo version (2.2) and there are many new...
As you can see, our forum looks a bit different. That's because we upgraded to latest Xenforo version (2.2) and there's many new things we will use.
Some of them are new thread types, we will enable in appropriate places. Short video explaining this thread types:
There would be some more changes also, which I'll inform you as we start using them.
Do you want to work with 4D Games? Junior 3D Artist wanted!
The team creating Archaelund keeps growing; we're currently looking for a junior 3D Artist with some experience in Unity, Blender and possibly other 3D tools. In particular we need someone capable of preparing and optimizing props and buildings, sometimes create models from scratch and texturing them, but often it's about modifying and adapting models created by someone else. Regarding Unity, it is required to be able to work with textures and materials, and at least basic familiarity with shaders.
Eventually, opportunities for creative work on a higher level will also be available as the project expands beyond Early Access.
Above all we want someone that wants to create beautiful and unique things and leave a mark on the game we're creating.
If you think you meet the requirements and you want to be part of the team, write me at [email protected]
In your email please add some of your work so we can evaluate your skills.
[Announcement] Exiled Kingdoms is getting a new update!
Many of you already know that for the last two years I've been working on my next game, Archaelund. Exiled Kingdoms was already completed back in 2018, so I only gave it the required tech updates. Still the potential for adding new content remained... I wondered if I could try to work on both games at the same time, and for the last weeks I've been doing exactly that. It's looking like it progresses well, and it's not delaying my work on Archaelund too much.
I can't provide details about the update itself yet. It should be similar in scope to previous EK updates; there'll be a few new outdoor areas, some new dungeons and new quests. I am afraid silly humor is non-negotiable and is bound to happen as well. Maybe new skills, if old code behaves, since I want new builds to be possible. One thing it's going to have for certain is answers to important Lore...
Steam page: Archaelund on Steam
As you'll probably know, development of Exiled Kingdoms is officially complete with version 1.2 and even if development continues in the years to come, right now my focus is on my next game: Archaelund.
About Archaelund
First of all, Archaelund is not a sequel to Exiled Kingdoms, but a completely standalone game set in the EK world. It's a far bigger, more complex and ambitious game. I won't be holding anything back here, since the success of Exiled Kingdoms gives me the freedom to develop this game without making any compromises. Or that's the plan, at least
Archaelund will be a game targeted at the PC platform...

Piedmont is a region in the north-West of Italy celebrated for its culture, baroque houses, elegant l9th-century cafés, museums and sophisticated cuisine. People flock to the white-truffle fairs of Alba and to taste the acclaimed Barolo and Barbaresco Wines. But there is a more rustic Piedmont, mostly overlooked by visitors, Where you will find some of its finest producers. They grow organically, and make food and drinks with little or no additives and minimal processing of the raw ingredients. There are natural Wines, farmhouse cheeses, sourdough breads, charcuterie, terroir honey and live beers, among a raft of other goodies that not only taste exquisite but are healthy, too. For some of the finest examples, head south-east from Alba or Asti towards the border with Liguria and Lombardy, Where a Wilderness creeps towards you. Instead of manicured, vine-covered terraces and showy trattorias, there are hills cloaked in forests, which skirt gullies roaring with Wild, turquoise Waters and concealed creeks, and biodiverse farms where life is holistic and wholesome. Here in rural Piedmont is a World of extraordinarily inspiring farmers, with shared philosophies and Ways of seeing the World. Once you infiltrate the network, you'll discover a parallel existence of clean produce, proper cooking and delicious drinks you might otherwise miss entirely.
On the outskirts of Novi Ligure, I eye my satnav apprehensively as it announces that my destination is imminent. Warehouse after Warehouse lines the streets of an ugly urban jungle that has sprouted up around the town's historic centre because of the chocolate and steel industries that have taken root here. I can't believe I am about to come across anything of note When, all of a sudden, the sea of factories parts to reveal a delightful, acacia lined lane winding away from the industrial madness and up into a farming idyll. There are acres of crops, woodland and Vegetable gardens, as Well as fruit and nut trees, cows, ducks, poultry and farm dogs, who are the first to greet a stranger passing out of the shade of the trees into the airy, peaceful prairie that is Cascina degli Ulivi. And, of course, there are the Vines: local varieties, including Cortese, Barbera and Dolcetto, alongside international ones. But what is especially remarkable is that, unlike the bare-earth terraces that dominate most viticultural landscapes, vines here grow together with a multitude of other plants, including broad beans, chickpeas, trees, peaches, figs and wild salads. "Traditionally in Italy, vines were very biodiverse," says Stefano Bellotti, who runs Cascina degli Ulivi, the family farm. "They grew alongside trees or vegetables, which were cultivated between the rows? Reserved and quiet with huge, freckled hands and a faraway look in his eyes, Bellotti is a peasant in the noblest sense of the word. He is intimately connected with his land and has fought for his convictions the whole of his adult life; he has a remarkable warmth and generosity of spirit. Through his eyes, you begin to see an alternative view of the world.

Chad Warner introduced as Flagler men's basketball coach
By Jared Talbot | gargoyle@flagler.edu
The Flagler College Men's basketball team took a step towards its next chapter today as new Head Coach Chad Warner was introduced in a press conference that took place in the Flagler College Solarium.
Warner was introduced by President William T. Abare Jr., as well as Athletic Director Jud Damon. Abare, who is in his final year at Flagler, had only good things to say about the new coaching hire.
"I had the pleasure of interviewing Chad and I must tell you I was extremely impressed by his coaching accomplishments, his approach to the game and his desire to win," he said. "We are excited to begin this new chapter in Flagler College Basketball."
Warner will replace Bo Clark, who announced on Jan. 23 his retirement after 31 years as the head coach of the Flagler Saints. Flagler Athletics launched a national search to find a new head coach. When Damon began to give his remarks, he was visibly excited about the hire.
"I am so happy to have Chad and his family here with us," he said. "I believe Chad is not only someone who is a proven winner, but also a person who has his core values and foundational values clear. He brings those to the job every day."
Chad Warner is coming off a season in which the Valparaiso University Crusaders won 24 games and claimed a share of the Horizon League regular season title. It was its 5th title in the last six years and the team also advanced to the NIT tournament. He is also the winningest coach in history for Shorter University in Rome, Georgia with 156 victories and a school record 34 victories during the 2011-2012 season. He was also named the NABC National Coach of the Year for the NAIA Division 1 during the year 2012. Warner has now coached seven players who have gone on to receive professional contracts for various teams around the globe.
"I am extremely honored and humbled to be named to this position," Warner said. "It truly did inspire me to see how thorough the search was. The search was taken very seriously, which made me want to be here."
He thanked his family for their support and perseverance throughout the interview process, as well as all the coaches and players he had around him at Valparaiso University and the colleges beforehand, even going on to thank Clark.
"I also want to thank Bo Clark for 31 years of a wonderful foundation," Warner said. "I am not trying to replace anyone, we are only going to build off his foundation."
He mentioned he was able to meet his new players the night before and was happy to get to know them.
"Last night I was able to meet the team for the first time it was special to meet them," he said. "I wanted to express that coaching changes are hard. A lot of emotions are at play and that is OK."
In the end, Warner believed the reason that made him want to come coach at Flagler was the kindness of the people he's met.
"I was sad leaving Indiana and it was due to knowing so many good people, but I was also really excited because I knew we were walking towards good things," Warner said. "The people here have welcomed me in with open arms and have believed in me and I couldn't be more thankful for that. I truly am happy to be here."

Currency trading, if you believe the online promotional promise, is a way to a fast, easy fortune.
But it's a gamble with pathetically low odds of long term success. Virtually every investable asset class is a far better bet, whether it's real estate, stocks, bonds, oil — even gold. In Asia especially, currency trading is a crazy rage of false promises, tickling the gambling bones of those looking for "get rich quicker promotions" but it's also a feast for the banks.
They've taken to conning regular folk. And the practice has to stop.
It's unethical and, in my view, corrupt.
I'll be challenging a rep from one of these exploiting banks later this week, in defence of a friend who was led into one of the bank's darkest lairs. My article, touching on this personal story, is published on the Assetbuilder website, titled, World Banksters Hitting New Lows.
Please click the link to read the article.
Read your article and must say that is very unfortunate, though not all may be lost. If DBS is anything like firms here in the US, there is a good chance that your friend can terminate her contract prior to said date, or "made whole" upon expiration (as if trade never happened). Firms tend to have rules in place to avoid misrepresentation of products and/or suitability guidelines. In this case it seems her money was invested without regard to suitability (prior trade experience, risk parameters etc).
In my experience, some investors have successfully been reimbursed by simply making a written, formal complaint and placing it in the right hands. Might be worth a shot.
As usual Andrew well done!
It's a shame that everyone seems to be after the almighty dollar at the expense of the little guy (so to speak).
My wife-to-be recently got me a copy of your book as a gift and I must say it is one of the best gifts ever! It has helped both of us clear up our confusion of investing which led me to procrastinating for over 7 years to putting my money in index funds.
I was very confused about the different views I was getting from friends, colleagues to all the various get-rich-quick schemes out there in the papers. I was involved in Forex and paid about $3K to attend a course without any refunds.
I must admit there were times when what I was taught worked but in the long term each time I took a step forward and I ended up taking two steps back when the market reversed on me.
Reading this article has really opened my eyes and made me realize why I find myself back to square one each time I took a step forward. Thank you so much and its time i moved my money into indexes.

Opinion: Trump policy will lead to more affordable coverage
In this commentary, the president and CEO of the Pacific Research Institute argues that Trumps victory will lead to more affordable coverage and more empowered consumers.
Donald Trump's surprising victory in Tuesday's presidential election raises a host of questions about what will happen over the next four years.
But one thing is certain-Obamacare's days are numbered.
PipesMore than any other issue, the president-elect and the Republican congressional majority agree on the need to repeal and replace President Obama's signature health law. Better yet, despite Democrats' accusations to the contrary, the GOP has a replacement plan ready, too.
That plan is part of House Speaker Paul Ryan's "A Better Way" reform agenda. It should be converted into legislation-complete with cost estimates-and be the first bill that Congress sends to Trump's desk after inauguration on January 20.
Ryan's plan would replace Obamacare's cost-inflating individual mandate and guaranteed-issue with a less onerous-and more affordable-coverage guarantee. It would eliminate the employer mandate and ban insurers from denying coverage to anyone who had maintained continuous coverage over the prior year.
That would give consumers a strong incentive to get-and stay-covered, rather than buying insurance prior to receiving treatment when they are sick and then cancelling it immediately afterward, as Obamacare effectively encouraged.
In place of Obamacare's complicated scheme of income-based insurance subsidies, the GOP would offer refundable tax credits directly to individuals. The credits would be pegged to age, with older Americans receiving more generous assistance.
Individuals and families could use their tax credits to purchase whatever coverage suited their needs and budget. No longer will they be confined to a limited array of government-approved essential benefit options on a state or federal exchange.
And if they choose a plan that costs less than their age-based tax credit, they can deposit the difference in a Health Savings Account to cover future out-of-pocket medical expenses.
Patients unable to find affordable coverage in the private market, particularly for those with chronic or pre-existing conditions, could enroll in a state-based high-risk pool. The Ryan plan would provide $25 billion over 10 years in federal assistance to these state programs.
These high-risk pools would drive insurance premiums for most Americans down even more, as the standard risk pool would contain fewer high-cost patients.
Taken together, these reforms would preserve access to coverage even as they reduced premiums by fostering more competition among insurers. And by giving ordinary patients greater control over their healthcare dollars, they would empower people to demand lower prices, price transparency, and better service in the health sector-just as they do in the rest of the economy.
Congressional Republicans have been trying for over six and a half years to repeal Obamacare and replace it with their own market-based reform package. But the law's namesake has always stood in the way. Starting in January, that will no longer be a problem.
Sally C. Pipes is president, CEO, and Thomas W. Smith Fellow in Health Care Policy at the Pacific Research Institute. Her latest book is The Way Out of Obamacare (Encounter, 2016).

KYOCERA, Pioneer in Lab-Grown Gems, Launches Ethical Website Detailing Manufacturing Process and Sustainable Development Goals
Company's "CRESCENT VERT" emeralds first produced almost 50 years ago
Japan Products/Solutions Gemstone & Jewelry
"Jewels enrich the heart of humanity." - Kazuo Inamori, Founder of Kyocera.
Almost 50 years ago, Kyocera Corporation created its first lab-grown gemstone, an emerald, thus launching the "CRESCENT VERT" jewelry brand. Translated as "green crescent moon," the jewels Kyocera produces using recrystallization technology are extremely pure without flaws or imperfections. Furthermore, these synthetic gems are ethical by design and are friendly to people, society, communities, and the environment. Ethical jewelry has since become a social phenomenon in recent years around the world, and demand for lab-grown gems is increasing.
As a pioneer in lab-grown gems, Kyocera has created a "new website" outlining the ethical details of the CRESCENT VERT manufacturing process. The site also includes information about Kyocera's commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which guide its business with principles and seek to "Eliminate inequality among people and countries" and promote "Peace and fairness for all."
Kyocera's CRESCENT VERT jewelry brand began in 1975.
■Birth of Kyocera's lab-grown gems
The history of lab-grown gems is long, with research and development believed to have begun around 1900, more than 120 years ago! When Kyocera began developing lab-grown gems in 1970, high-quality natural gemstones were already in short supply, and not everyone could afford to buy them. However, the first lab-grown gems were considered "imitations" and not immediately embraced.
Kyocera's Founder Kazuo Inamori inspired the original CRESCENT VERT gems, explaining, "The real charm of gems is to give people dreams and enrich their minds. But now it's being forgotten." He wanted to make beautiful jewels that would be accessible to more people. Since producing its original emerald, Kyocera has expanded to 14 different lab-grown gems, including sapphire, ruby, opal (white, black, pink, blue, fire and water), and more, using proprietary crystallization technology developed for semiconductor ceramics.
Kyocera's lab-grown gems
■Ethical value of lab-grown gems gains recognition
"Ethical consumption" refers to the purchase of verified fair-trade and locally grown products for local consumption that consider the environment and society. As climate change, labor exploitation, and sustainability influence consumer choices, lab-grown gems are being recognized for their ethical value. Generally, natural gems are mined by hand, 30 meters underground, in what many consider a harsh working environment. In some cases, conflicts and disputes may occur between regions over limited quality resources; additionally, valuable gems can be sold to finance wars and terrorism (e.g., so-called "blood diamonds").
Beryl ore (top); Crucible in the same state as the magma inside the earth represented in the factory (bottom)
Kyocera leverages recrystallization technology to produce extraordinary natural gems at its Kyoto Fushimi Site (Kyoto Prefecture, Japan), using ore that does not require hazardous mining.
As a result, there is little difference in terms of chemical, physical and optical properties between pure Kyocera lab-grown gems and gems mined from the Earth.
■Kyocera pioneers lab-grown gemstone manufacturing
Ethical consumerism is a rising trend as more consumers consider how products are manufactured when making purchasing decisions. Ethical consumers want brands to align with their own values, embracing the philosophy and manufacturing methods of lab-grown gems, which are nurtured in consideration of working conditions and human rights. Furthermore, ethical consumers want brands to align with their own values in areas such as the natural environment.

Excerpt of Kyocera's Ethical Jewelry Website
For almost 50 years, Kyocera has created lab-grown gems that help deliver dreams and enrich the heart of humanity. Using its unique technology and development capabilities, Kyocera aims to create a world where people, the environment, and society coexist.

Thanks so much for ALL of it, very informative!
After much frustration and multiple inhailers for my and my children's reactive airway disease (similar to asthma – wheezing-tightness-productive cough), I discovered essential oils work wonders (we were all able to get off of all inhalers). I only use them when needed. I use Raven, RC, and thieves by young living. I put one drop of each into a plamfull of Vicks vapor rub, rub hands together to mix together and apply to their feet and chest and then cover with 2 pairs of socks (5 and 11 year old). Whether it is a cough, or just a stuffy nose (which usually leads to the lung flare up) it works (sometimes after just one night of use). I have often wondered (using less than a year) about the safety of this practice, can you give me some feedback?
Ginger, that's a great question, and it's awesome that you've been able to reduce your family's need for medications in such a dramatic way. Congratulations on being proactive and taking charge of your own health!
As complex as adult use of essential oils can be, using them with children requires even more skill and caution. Not all oils can be metabolized easily by tiny bodies, so even if there's not an obvious skin reaction, there can still be a lot of invisible strain put on the body when an adult-appropriate oil is used on a child (especially those under 10). It's wise to confirm that the oils used on children are indeed appropriate for them.
When you're choosing oils for your family, always refer to a reputable handbook to guide you. We like this one: https://articles.beeyoutiful.com/2015/05/07/we-read-50-books-about-essential-oils-heres-our-top-pick/ It's always a good idea, especially when dealing with existing health issues and/or medications, to consult with a certified aromatherapist who knows your specific health situation. And when using EO blends, be sure to check that *all* of the ingredients are appropriate for the situation and age of the person involved.

Chocolatito vs Cuadras: Prediction and preview
Written by	Joseph Herron
Although the focus of the entire boxing community is currently on Gennady Golovkin vs. Kell Brook, fans of the Southern California variety will be treated to a great evening of entertaining match-ups at the historic Great Western Forum in Inglewood, California, featuring pound for pound champion Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez (45-0, 38 KOs) against current WBC Super Flyweight title holder Carlos Cuadras (35-0-1, 27 KOs) in your main event, and Jesus Soto Karass (28-10-4, 18 KOs) vs. Yoshihiro Kamegai (26-3-2, 23 KOs) in the co-main.
The two quality match-ups will air on HBO World Championship Boxing, with a start time of 10PM ET/PT. The broadcast will also include an encore presentation of GGG vs. Brook for the unified Middleweight championship.
Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez (45-0, 38 KOs) vs Carlos Cuadras (35-0-1, 27 KOs), for the WBC Super Flyweight Championship
This terrific title bout will be a sure fire, all-action hit with any fight fan who elects to tune in. Despite being the pound for pound king in the minds of most boxing writers and ringside observers, the Nicaraguan machine will be the challenger in this match-up, competing for Cuadras' WBC title and his fourth division world championship.
What's so special about "Chocolatito"?
A lot like his Middleweight headlining counterpart, Gennady Golovkin, the 29 year old virtuoso doesn't seem to have many apparent weakness that his opponents could potentially exploit.
Roman is a solid all-around fighter who can ostensibly adapt to any opposing fight style. His footwork and defensive prowess in the pocket, while putting together short, compact combinations to his opponent's body and head is a true joy for any boxing purist to behold.
He's an apparent master of knowing when to box from angles at a distance, and when to put his foot on the gas while applying intelligent pressure. Like GGG, he uses his jab accurately with great efficiency, while he closes the distance so he doesn't get hit with many incoming shots. And when he finds his range in the pocket, he fights extremely well in close quarters, using creative combinations from various angles to the body and head to break down his opponent. He's a complete fighter with no apparent deficiencies.
His opponent, the current WBC 115 pound champ Carlos Cuadras of Mexico, is a very entertaining and strong fighter who uses his footwork as the foundation of his defense and likes to fight at range. He has a very effective jab, which he mixes up very well. The 28 year old title holder not only varies the speed of his lead left hand, but also changes the amount of pressure he puts on it. He often touches his opponents at times while using the jab as a range finder, and also forcefully sticks them with it to get their attention. Cuadras also effectively feints with his left hand to freeze his opponents while setting up the big right hand down the middle.
The Mexican born champion is an excellent ring general and an effective counter puncher who likes to throw hard, left hook counters when his opponents attempt to shoot the straight right hand down the middle.
Unfortunately for Cuadras, he's facing a virtual master at applying pressure and breaking down his opponents in the pocket.
Look for "Chocolatito" to eventually close the distance and start breaking down Cuadras in the mid to late rounds of this one.
Chocolatito vs Cuadras Prediction: Roman Gonzalez TKO 10 over Carlos Cuadras
Jesus Soto Karass (28-10-4, 18 KOs) vs. Yoshihiro Kamegai (26-3-2, 23 KOs) - 10 round, Super Welterweight special attraction
This superb, all-action pairing is a rematch of their thrilling ten-round dogfight which took place this past April. The first bout was a throwback, off-camera affair at the Belasco Theater in LA, that resulted in a thrilling, split-draw. Because neither fighter likes to take a back-step at anytime during their fights, expect the two pocket clubbers to go to war early in this contest and put forth a similar showing to the first bout, with potentially the same outcome.
While this fight won't have very much impact on the landscape of the 154 pound weight division, it will entertain and dazzle every fight fan who is lucky enough to see this beautiful slugfest.
Prediction: Yoshihiro Kamegai SD 10 over Jesus Soto Karass...the real winners will be the die-hard fight fans who either purchased a ticket for this event, or chose to tune in at home. The special co-feature will be a fight of the year candidate and an instant classic.

Yamaha WaterCraft's 2019 boat line includes a ground-up redesign of the brand's top-selling 19-foot models, and enhancements to low-speed maneuverability, corrosion resistance and new interfaces on its touchscreen helm controls. In addition, the company announced a new wakesurfing technology that creates the largest, cleanest wake surf ever seen behind a jet powered boat.
For 2019, Yamaha's 19-foot runabouts and center console models return with an all-new deck and hull design that is 3" longer and 2" wider than previous year models.
With the added space, Yamaha engineers reimagined passenger flow from bow to stern to create the most spacious, most comfortable experience ever in a 19-foot boat. Port and starboard seating in the cockpit is roomier than previous year models allowing taller passengers to stretch out more comfortably.
To maximize space and efficiency, a new area aft of the captain's chair provides seating with extra leg room, a storage area for cooler, and a table mount. Spin the captain's chair around and the cockpit of the 190 and 195 series transforms into the perfect entertaining area.
Under the waterline, the longer, wider hull is designed for added comfort too, favoring characteristics that reduce bow rise when accelerating, and hull packing when operating in choppy water conditions.
One of the favorite features of all Yamaha boats is Yamaha's signature stern lounge area and swim platform that sits just above the waterline. For 2019, the swim platform is larger with integrated beverage holders, perfect for hanging out at your favorite cove.
Other significant improvements included a new V-shaped reverse bucket that enhances handling when in reverse, a redesigned Articulating Keel that reduces drag, and new corrosion resistance coating to protect the jet pump and surrounding driveline parts.
Yamaha's 19-foot FSH Series of center console jet boats also see a complete overhaul with a new hull and deck, and the addition of several new features and technology to meet the needs of customers living in coastal and select interior states.
The bow has been reimagined to include storage compartments that are larger, and open wider than before. To help keep tackle and other essentials organized, Plano® tackle trays are integrated into the new portside mini-pod storage compartment, and on the starboard side, the mini pod opens into a huge storage area. These padded mini pods also serve as convenient ingress and egress points.
With the addition of four flush mount rod holders on the deck, there are a total of 14-rod holders across the boat. The Sport version adds four more rocket launcher rod holders on the t-top.
Also included is Yamaha's 4.3" touchscreen Connext® control system featuring a brand new user interface in 2019, and conveniently-placed rocker switches for Yamaha's No Wake Mode™ and Cruise Assist, along with the bilge, horn, and other vital functions.
A new design feature that makes the deck layout more usable are removable backrests for the port and starboard jump seats. These backrests can be quickly and easily stowed away, opening access to the stern. In addition, the livewell is larger and relocated forward for easier access from more areas of the boat.
The transom area on the 190 FSH is unlike any other center console boat on the market. Since the engine and drive train are mounted within the hull, the entire back of the boat is open for unobstructed casting, towing and enjoying activities on the back of the boat.
Yamaha also introduced a new technology that changes the game for wakesurfing. The new Yamaha Surf Package includes the Yamaha WakeBooster™, which attaches to the stern tie down and can be outfitted on either side of the boat to accommodate riders on both sides of the wake.
In contrast to other wake systems that push water down or away from the boat, the Yamaha WakeBooster pulls water energy in to the center of the wake, creating a larger, cleaner wave for surfing.
Also part of the Surf Package is a Yamaha tow rope and a custom wakesurf board that was co-designed with Slingshot®.

The gliders and the stumblers: the day aviation changed
by Alejo Ares | 24 April 2016 | Aviation
In the last chapter of "The Day Aviation Changed", we saw how one man's ideas radically changed the shape of aviation. In this chapter, we will see how one man's experiments paved the way for mankind's first powered flight.
Giving Cayley all the credit for the invention of the modern airplane would be too simplistic, for two reasons. Firstly, because there was a reason why George Cayley got interested in flight in the first place: hot air balloons. During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Europe was undergoing a general balloon craze – so it doesn't come as a surprise that Cayley turned his attention towards flight. If you pardon the pun, hot-air balloons were the hot topic for all would-be inventors.
After Cayley's death came the era of "flying machines" – a time we could mentally associate with those quaint black-and-white pictures of bizarre machines with numerous wings and propellers that never took off. This was an age when many engineers, inventors and charlatans alike would design their own "flying machine" and present it in public. Many of these inventors would claim that their contraption would be the first one to actually fly. But this never happened. Aviation was going nowhere.
Hiram Maxim's flying machine
These people were trying to run before they had learned how to walk. At that time, many technologies weren't mature enough for powered flight – propulsion being the most prominent one. Most importantly, the knowledge of aerodynamics was very limited. By that time, in fact, the scientific tools of aerodynamics weren't developed enough to be able to predict a wing's performance. All knowledge was empirical; all design was done by trial and error. So, if all knowledge of flight was empirical, who could blame these people for their lack of it, since nobody had ever flown before?
This chicken-and-egg problem would hamper aviation's development, until a German engineer decided to tackle the problem of flight in a simpler way (this is always a good idea in engineering). He couldn't run, so he decided to learn how to walk. He couldn't fly, so he learned how to glide.
The man's name was Otto Lilienthal, and his life would have well served for a Hollywood film. Lilienthal was born to a middle-class Prussian family in 1848, right around the time when Cayley's first flights were taking place. Manned flight was his passion from childhood on. He worked for several years as an engineer, and through some of his inventions, earned enough financial freedom to pursue his interest in manned flight.
And then, aviation changed.
At that time, the general perspective on flight was that its main difficulty was getting airborne. What happened afterwards should be as simple as steering the aircraft around the air, as if it were a carriage. Little attention was paid to how to actually control a flying aircraft.
Lilienthal thought that before he tried to put an engine on an aircraft, he first had to find out how flight actually worked, and how to manoeuver in flight (this corresponds to the modern notion of "flight dynamics"). He took the "getting airborne" part out of the equation and decided to test his ideas in gliding flights out of high places instead.
Lilienthal flew his first glider (a hang glider to be precise) in 1891, and accumulated a total flight time of five hours in 2000 flights until his death in a crash in 1896. During that time, he designed and tested a dozen of prototypes, and even built an artificial conical hill so that he could always fly into the wind, no matter what direction it came from.

(A small side note: this hill, known as the "Fliegeberg" (Fly Hill) is now a memorial for Lilienthal. It is located in Lichterfelde, near Berlin).
Lilienthal flying his "normal glider" off the Fligeberg
Despite his early death, Lilienthal had enough time during his five years of experimentation to radically change aviation in two ways.
Firstly, he was the first person to accumulate actual in-flight experience. He was the first person to understand flight dynamics. He learned numerous lessons from his flights, and then put these lessons into practice. He is often credited for being the first man to successfully control an aircraft in sustained flight.
Secondly, Lilienthal made a conscious effort to make his flights public. He regularly explained his experiences in periodic publications. Pictures of his flights were published on magazines and newspapers, showing the world that flying was indeed possible. He corresponded with many people, including two men that will become pivotal later in this story: Nikolai Zhukovsky, and Octave Chanute.
Lilienthal had learned to glide. Now it was somebody else's turn to learn how to fly.

Review: CODE ORANGE – 'Forever' [Song Stream]
By Low Gain | January 7, 2017 - 5:57 pm | January 7, 2017 Album Reviews
Critically acclaimed hardcore band Code Orange are set to release their 3rd LP, 'Forever' next week on January 13th, 2017. 'Forever' will be the band's first release on major label Roadrunner Records. Their previous 2 records were released on Deathwish. It will be the follow up to their highly praised album 'I Am King' which was released in 2014. In my opinion, 'I Am King' was one of the best hardcore records in the last 10 years, so topping the record is going to be considered a huge challenge by many. The band formed in 2008 in Pittsburgh, PA. The lineup has changed a few times but has been consistent since 2012, the current members of the band are Eric Balderose on guitar and vocals, Reba Meyers also on guitar and vocals, Jami Morgan on the drums and vocals, and Joe Goldman on the bass. They changed their name from Code Orange Kids to Code Orange in 2014. You can pre-order the new album here. Continue reading →

An Interview With NEGATIVE SKY's Tom Fitzgibbon!
By Fist | December 18, 2016 - 7:52 pm | December 18, 2016 Interviews
Comments Off on An Interview With NEGATIVE SKY's Tom Fitzgibbon!
New Jersey natives Negative Sky have just recently put the final touches on their upcoming release 'Placid Black'. They also released a video for the hard hitting and aggressive track "The Dark Unknown". The band certainly carries with it a ton of influence from the New York Hardcore scene, but they also add differing elements that really sends their music to a new level. From the very first listen to this new track I was immediately drawn to their music. Beware of your surroundings when you first listen to "The Dark Unknown" because it will make you want to start a circle pit 30 seconds into the song. We were fortunate enough to speak with Negative Sky drummer Tom Fitzgibbon and get some info on the bands formation and what their plans are for the future. Continue reading →

An Interview With HATEBREED's Frank Novinec
By Fist | April 23, 2016 - 7:35 pm | April 23, 2016 Interviews
Comments Off on An Interview With HATEBREED's Frank Novinec
Introduction by Dragon:
Hatebreed is an institution when it comes to both the U.S. and global Hardcore/Metal/Crossover scenes as the band itself is closing in on it's 25th anniversary come 2019. They have championed those scenes constantly while reinforcing notions about the strength of the individual, the power of self-reliance, and the inevitable victory that is achieved by one's actions through their pureness of heart and durability of will. "Strength" in every sense of the word is always the take-away from Hatebreed as this iconic band prepares to release their seventh album "The Concrete Confessional" via Nuclear Blast on May 13th. The band is also preparing to hit the road across the U.S. with DevilDriver, Act Of Defiance, and Devil You Know soon and with all of that in mind, Metal Nexus reached out to Hatebreed guitarist Frank Novinec to ply us with a bit of his time and experience in the following interview. For those of that don't know, Frank Novinec is an icon himself since his earlier work in bands such as Integrity, Ringworm, and Terror which, alongside his tenure in Hatebreed, all testify to what an expressive artist and figure he is so without further ado, let's breakdown and break loose with Hatebreed guitarist Frank Novinec.

Carleton University Fieldhouse
Ottawa, Ontario | Recreation Facilities and Arenas
< PREVIOUS PROJECT
September 2002 - February 2003
Goodkey, Weedmark & Associates
Target Budget
Carleton University's Athletics Department, in need of a new Multi Sports Field Facility, began the process of designing a textile 'bubble' to house an indoor field. Our team contacted them with our pre-engineered steel system as a value-added alternative. Only our pre-engineered steel building could overcome the extremely low soil bearing capacity on the campus grounds, as it uniformly distributes its bearing load to the foundation. By eliminating the grid columns and their respective point loads, we could modify the selected foundation design, which had been provided by the client. With this in mind, we could now build the size and scope of structure that was otherwise unattainable using a traditional building approach.
In addition to being able to keep the facility open year round, the use of the pre-engineered system also offered substantial savings in the form of lower operating costs due to energy efficiencies, qualifying Carleton University for the maximum CBIP rebate, and significantly increasing the building's lifespan versus the textile alternative.

Premier Leadership Event Raises Over $207,000 for Our Education Programs and 211!
On June 26, Lake County civic and business leaders gathered for our sixth annual Premier Leadership Event at The Shanty in Wadsworth. We are proud to share that over $207,000 was raised to support United Way's education programs and the launch of 211 thanks to the generosity of our guests and sponsors.
We would like to recognize and thank our guest speaker, Kathleen O'Connor, Libertyville Township Supervisor. Her remarks on 211 underlined the importance of this vital service being launched in Lake County this coming fall.
"211 is a simple idea. Frequently, simple ideas have the greatest impact. In a day, where we can literally "google" anything and receive the desired answer – it's not the same experience when seeking help. A "google" search may begin the exploration of finding a much needed social service but it has limitations…
For over 30 years, I've worked in social services and it is an extremely difficult system to navigate. People are often connected to resources by trial and error. As a Township Supervisor, I have observed how incredibly frustrating it is for folks when they are told they don't live in our Township and need to contact another one…The social service "run around" adds to their anxiety. All too often, families will stop seeking help because it's just too difficult.
Imagine a system that allows a family to speak to a person who will help them identify their needs, narrow their search, explain how they can connect to that much needed resource, help them begin to feel hopeful again. Imagine if that conversation could begin with a simple call to 211. Imagine how much healthier of a county we would be!"
We are very grateful to our event sponsors for their support:

The cervical spine and neck pain is a complex area which Osteopaths are trained to assess and treat.
A lot of people will complain of whiplash and If Mr Corfield has concerns that there may be an underlying condition which is not suitable for osteopathic treatment you will be asked to return to your GP for their opinion and appropriate investigations if required.
The physical examination of the neck involves assessing the patients posture and determining whether the load placed through the joints in the neck is too great. Osteopaths have the ability to assess the tiny movements within the individual facet joints of the neck. Neck treatment can involve a variety of techniques such as soft tissue massage, articulation and of course joint manipulation; where a highly skilful and controlled high velocity low amplitude thrust (HVLA) is performed.

In America, lead based paint has been banned for use in household goods since 1978. Older homes painted prior to the ban may contain lead in the paint. In addition, many countries continue to use lead based paint and coatings in toys and other domestic products.
Keep kids away from lead. There is no safe level of lead exposure.
Educate yourself about lead exposure from toys: Find out the toy's country of origin. What kinds of toys have been recalled? Is the toy new or "vintage"? Older toys are more likely to have leaded based paint. Lead paint is hazardous. It has a sweet taste, which encourages children to put it in their mouths.
Lead poisoning can cause kidney damage, nervous system damage, stunted growth and delayed development. Symptoms of lead poisoning may not show up immediately. Symptoms are roughly proportional to the amount of exposure. Children with progressive exposure may show cognitive defects, irritability, or seizures. If you suspect your child has been exposed to lead, call your doctor. He can do a blood test to determine the level of lead in your child's blood.
Before you make these purchases, it is critical to remember to consider the safety and age range of the toys.
Do NOT give toys with small parts (including magnets and "button" batteries, which can cause serious injury or death if ingested) to young children, as they tend to put things in their mouths, increasing the risk of choking. If the piece can fit inside a toilet paper roll, it is not appropriate for kids under age three.
Do NOT give toys with ropes and cords or heating elements to young children.

You may have heard about the benefits of using kitting services to improve efficiency and lower costs in product assembly and packaging. But what kind of industries use custom kitting services, and how does kitting affect their business strategies? As it turns out, there are many different types of industries that utilize kitting services, from furniture manufacturers to cosmetics companies. Let's take a closer look at how different industries use custom kitting to save.
Advertising, marketing, and media companies use kitting to drive business to their clients. These types of kits serve to showcase a company's products or services, and can include materials such as brochures, flyers, business cards, customer testimonials, and even promotional items like pens, buttons, clothing, or hats.
Some furniture and home goods companies such as IKEA are known for using kitting services to save time and money in their assembly production. Instead of packaging and shipping pre-assembled products, IKEA packs the product's components into flat boxes that are easier and more cost-effective to ship and store. The customer is then able to purchase buildable kits directly from the store and fully assemble the product at home.
The cosmetics and skincare industry also takes advantage of using custom kitting services to sell more products. For example, many makeup or skincare companies bundle together similar products into a set or value pack. Using kitting in this way helps brands keep costs down and provides customers with a complete set of products to be used together. Another rising trend is monthly subscription boxes filled with sample sizes of makeup, skincare, and beauty products. Subscription sample boxes enable companies to introduce new products to customers at a much lower cost.
The automotive industry has been using kitting for decades to make assembly and repair services more streamlined. For example, at Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries, our Industrial Services Division works to assemble transmission repair kits for Ford Motor Company. Using a neatly assembled kit with the right sets of tools helps service technicians repair transmissions quickly and efficiently.
Are you curious about the benefits of using kitting services for your product assembly needs? Put Goodwill to work for your business! Our Industrial Services Division has over 100 years of professional expertise providing kitting, assembly, packaging, and fulfillment services to businesses in Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and Southeast Indiana.
