Die katholische Filialkirche St. Georg in Niederwerth, einer Inselgemeinde im Landkreis Mayen-Koblenz in Rheinland-Pfalz, wurde im 15. Jahrhundert als Augustiner-Chorherrenkirche im Stil der Gotik errichtet. Die Kirche besitzt eine reiche Ausstattung an Skulpturen. Im Jahr 1972 wurden Wand- und Gewölbemalereien aus dem frühen 16. Jahrhundert entdeckt und wieder freigelegt.

Die Filialkirche St. Georg ist ein geschütztes Kulturdenkmal nach dem Denkmalschutzgesetz (DSchG) und steht auf der Denkmalliste des Landes Rheinland-Pfalz.

Geschichte
Wie aus Gräberfunden hervorgeht war die Insel Niederwerth bereits in fränkischer Zeit besiedelt. Erstmals schriftlich erwähnt ist die Insel im 13. Jahrhundert. Der Erzbischof von Trier hatte dort neben anderen Besitzungen einen Hof, den Hasenkammerhof, in dem er wohnte, wenn er sich zur Jagd und zum Fischfang in Niederwerth aufhielt. Hier übernachtete 1338 der englische König Eduard III., als er auf Einladung des Kaisers Ludwig des Bayern beim Koblenzer Fürstentag zu Gast war.

In einer Urkunde aus dem Jahr 1275 ist eine dem heiligen Georg geweihte Klause in der Nähe des bischöflichen Hofgutes überliefert, bei der es sich wahrscheinlich um die Ansiedlung einer Beginengemeinschaft handelte. Nach Unstimmigkeiten mit dem Trierer Erzbischof Otto von Ziegenhain siedelten die Beginen um 1428 nach Besselich bei Urbar über. Neben den Klausnereigebäuden übergab Otto von Ziegenhain das erzbischöfliche Hofgut in Niederwerth den Augustinerchorherren im niederländischen Zwolle, die sich der Windesheimer Kongregation angeschlossen hatten. Die Augustiner weihten das Kloster Unserer Lieben Frau und begannen mit dem Bau der heutigen Kirche, die 1474 geweiht wurde.

Das Kloster brachte es zu erheblichem Reichtum, wozu auch die Fälschungen von Schenkungs- und Kaufurkunden beitrugen. In der Folge der Reformation lebten 1580 nur noch zwei Chorherren in Niederwerth. Auf Anordnung des Trierer Erzbischofs und Kurfürsten Jakob von Eltz mussten sie das Kloster verlassen, damit dort Zisterzienserinnen aus Koblenz – gegen ihren Widerstand – einziehen konnten. Deren Gebäude stellte der Bischof den Jesuiten zur Verfügung, die in Koblenz eine neue Niederlassung gründen und die Gegenreformation auf seinem Territorium vorantreiben sollten.

Um 1600 ließen die Zisterzienserinnen neue Klosterbauten errichten. Die wenigen, heute noch erhaltenen Gebäudereste stammen aus den Bauphasen von 1658 bis 1744. Sie sind heute zu Wohnungen umgebaut. Im Norden des Langhauses sind drei Joche des ehemaligen Kreuzganges erhalten.

Liste der Äbtissinnen:
 Gutta Bolen von Mertloch (gest. 22. September 1580), letzte Äbtissin vor der Umsiedlung auf die Insel
 Anna I. Meser von Horchheim (* ca. 1517, gest. 10. Dezember 1607), amtierte 1580–1607, erste Äbtissin nach der Umsiedlung
 Katharina Gergon (* ca. 1574, gest. 22. Februar 1658), amtierte 1612–1658
 Maria von Ufflingen (gest. 22. Januar 1669) wurde am 21. März 1658 zur Äbtissin gewählt, amtierte 1658–1669
 Anna Renata von Ufflingen (* ca. 1635, gest. 25. August 1703), Schwester der vorigen, amtierte 1669–1703
 Maria Catharina von Sinneren (* ca. 1638, gest. 5. Februar 1716), amtierte 1703–1716

Nach der Besetzung das Kurfürstentums Trier durch französische Revolutionstruppen fiel Niederwerth mit den rechtsrheinischen Gebieten an Nassau-Weilburg und wurde 1811 säkularisiert. Gebäude und Ländereien wurden verkauft, die ehemalige Klosterkirche wurde als Schenkung der Gemeinde Niederwerth übertragen. 1954 wurde die Kirche der Pfarrei übereignet. St. Georg ist eine Filiale von Vallendar und gehört zur Pfarreiengemeinschaft Vallendar-Urbar. Von 1968 bis 1974 wurde die Kirche grundlegend restauriert.

Architektur

Außenbau
Das Langhaus wird von einem kleinen barocken Dachreiter bekrönt. Ein zweiter, gotischer Dachreiter sitzt auf dem Chor. Auf den weißen Außenmauern heben sich die rot gefassten Fensterumrahmungen ab. Zwischen den Fenstern der Langhaussüdwand sind Rosetten gemalt. Chor und Westfassade werden durch stark hervortretende, einmal abgetreppte Strebepfeiler gestützt, die mit Pultdächern gedeckt sind. Das südliche Langhaus, die Westfassade und der Chor sind von dreibahnigen Spitzbogenfenstern mit Fischblasenmaßwerk durchbrochen. Die Fenster der Nordwand sind zugemauert.

Innenraum

Die Kirche ist ein dreijochiger Saalbau, an den sich im Osten ein eingezogener, dreijochiger Chor mit Fünfachtelschluss anschließt. Den westlichen Abschluss des Langhauses bildet eine vierjochige Empore, deren Brüstung aus kunstvollen Maßwerkfeldern besteht.

Die Kreuzrippengewölbe von Langhaus und Chor sind mit aufwändig gestalteten Schlusssteinen verziert, auf denen Wappen und figürliche Szenen zu erkennen sind. Auf den Schlusssteinen im Chor werden Gottvater, die Hand Gottes, das Lamm Gottes und der heilige Augustinus dargestellt. Zwei Schlusssteine, links der Engel, rechts Maria, geben die Verkündigungsszene wieder. Auf einem anderen Stein steht ein Chorknabe hinter einem knienden Bischof, der sich durch sein Wappen als Johann II. von Baden (1434–1503) ausweist. Im Langhaus sind der Schmerzensmann, Maria auf der Mondsichel und ein Christuskopf mit Dornenkrone zu sehen.

Auch die Konsolen sind mit Figuren skulptiert. Neben den zwölf Aposteln stellen sie Propheten und biblische Könige dar.

Wandmalereien
Die spätgotischen Fresken stellen die vier Kirchenväter mit den Symbolen der Evangelisten dar. Ambrosius ist der geflügelte Mensch des Matthäus zugeordnet, Augustinus der Adler des Johannes, Hieronymus der Löwe des Markus und Gregor der Stier des Lukas. Im östlichen Joch tragen vier Engel die Leidenswerkzeuge Jesu. Auch an anderen Stellen wie in der Sakristei wurden Reste von Ranken- und Architekturmalerei wiederentdeckt.

Bleiglasfenster
In ein Fenster des südlichen Langhauses wurden Fragmente eines Grisaillefensters von 1480 wieder eingefügt. Unter einem gotischen Baldachin ist eine Figur dargestellt, die als Bernhard von Clairvaux gedeutet wird. Auch in das große Fenster der Westfassade sind Fragmente mittelalterlicher Scheiben integriert.

Die neugotischen Chorfenster sind mit der Jahreszahl 1873 bezeichnet. Auf dem linken Fenster werden die heilige Katharina von Alexandrien, Maria und die heilige Elisabeth von Thüringen, in deren Gewand Rosen eingeschlungen sind, dargestellt. Das rechte Fenster zeigt den heiligen Georg, Jesus, der auf sein Herz weist, und den heiligen Nikolaus, zu dessen Füßen das Pökelfass mit den drei Scholaren steht.

Ausstattung

 Der neugotische Altaraufbau umrahmt in drei Reihen angeordnete Relieftafeln, auf denen Szenen aus dem Leben Jesu dargestellt sind. Die untere Reihe erinnert an die Verkündigung, die Heimsuchung, die Tötung der Unschuldigen Kinder und die Flucht nach Ägypten. Themen der mittleren Reihe sind die Geburt Christi, die Präsentation im Tempel und die Anbetung der Heiligen Drei Könige, die zwei Tafeln einnimmt. Die obere Reihe ist Gottvater, der Auferstehung, der Himmelfahrt und der Grablegung Christi gewidmet. Die Holzreliefs, die ehemals die Flügel eines Flügelaltares bildeten, werden in die Zeit um 1520 datiert und der Werkstatt des in Trier und Koblenz tätigen Bildschnitzers Meister Jakob (auch Jakob Kerre) zugeordnet. Dieser orientierte sich bei der Gestaltung an druckgraphischen Vorlagen von Albrecht Altdorfer.
 Die Sakramentsnische im Chor, links vom Hochaltar, besitzt zwei Holztüren mit Malereien auf der Innen- und Außenseite, die vermutlich aus der Zeit um 1520 stammen. Im geschlossenen Zustand ist die Verkündigungsszene zu sehen. Auf den Innenseiten ist links Maria auf der Mondsichel dargestellt und rechts die heilige Hildegundis mit Hirtenstab und Buch.
 In einer anderen Nische der Apsis wird in einem Holzkästchen eine Reliquie aufbewahrt, die als Mütze des heiligen Bernhard von Clairvaux verehrt wird. Angeblich gelangte sie durch Benigna von Helfenstein nach Niederwerth, die die Mütze anlässlich seines Besuchs in Deutschland von Bernhard als Geschenk erhalten hatte.
 Die stehende Madonnenfigur mit Jesuskind und Traube, Unsere Liebe Frau vom Werth genannt, wird um 1490/1500 datiert und Tilman van der Burch zugeschrieben.
 Die beiden lebensgroßen Figuren an der Stirnseite der Empore stammen aus dem 18. Jahrhundert. Sie stellen bedeutende Zisterzienser dar, links Bernhard von Clairvaux und rechts Robert von Molesme, den Gründer des Ordens.
 Zwei Wappen an der Empore mit der Jahreszahl 1663 erinnern an Heinrich von Ufflingen und seine Gemahlin Barbara, die Stifter der barocken Erweiterung der Empore.

Packaging, especially flexible packaging, is one of the most dynamic industries today owing to its extensive application in the food and beverages, personal care, and pharmaceutical sectors. The rising demand for bi-axially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) in packaging, labeling, printing, and lamination can be primarily attributed to the booming growth in the aforementioned industries. Transparency Market Research predicts that the demand for BOPP will be in line with that of flexible packaging in the near future. It is also likely to be consistent with the growth of the food and beverages industry.
By revenue, the BOPP market is poised to expand at a 5.8% CAGR from 2016 to 2024, with the value rising from US$12.7 bn in 2015 to US$20.9 bn by the end of the forecast period. The market is projected to register a 6.3% CAGR in terms of volume between 2016 and 2024.
BOPP finds application mainly in the food industry and this segment is the leading contributor to the growth of the BOPP market in terms of volume. BOPP is used for packaging and labeling in the food industry and the growing demand for snacks, cakes, breads, ready-to-eat packaged foods, frozen foods, and confectioneries has impacted the demand for BOPP in this sector.
The food sector is also anticipated to be the fastest growing application segment by the end of the forecast period. Considering the growing demand for tapes in industrial packaging, the tapes segment also holds lucrative opportunities for players in the BOPP market.
The global BOPP market is geographically segmented into North America, Central America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. In terms of volume, Asia Pacific leads the global BOPP and the region accounted for a share of more than 55% in 2015. Poised for considerable growth over the course of the forecast period, the APAC BOPP market is likely to be driven by the high demand for BOPP for the production of packages and labels in the food industry and tapes for industrial packaging purposes. China is one of the leading consumers of BOPP in the region.
The Middle East and Africa and Latin America BOPP markets are projected to witness moderate to high growth by 2024, owing to the expansion of the food industry and the rising demand for packaged products. Countries within the GCC are expected to be key markets for BOPP in the Middle East; South Africa and Nigeria are likely to play a leading role in the BOPP market in Africa; Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, and Chile hold promising prospects for the BOPP market in Latin America.
The BOPP market is highly fragmented, marked by the presence of several major players. Some of the prominent companies in the global BOPP market include Kopafilm Elektrofolien GmbH, SRF Limited, Chemosvit A.S., Tempo Group, Taghleef Industries, Vibac Group S.p.A., Treofan Group, Rowad Global Packaging Co. Ltd., Zubairi Plastic Bags Industry LLC, Poligal S.A., Futamura Chemical Co., Ltd., Manucor S.p.A., Oben Holding Group, Innovia Films, Xpro India Limited, Uflex Ltd., Jindal Poly Films Ltd., Biaxplen Ltd., BIOFILM, Cosmos Films Ltd., Dunmore Corporation, Polyplex Corporation Limited, and Vitopel S.A.
Bi-axially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) is polypropylene based film or sheet stretched across two axes in a sequential manner. BOPP films are manufactured using tubular film and stenter processes. Commercially, stenter process is preferred to the tubular process considering the inherent advantages such as mass production and extensive thin films. Presently, BOPP films are available in various product forms, such as plain BOPP films, matte BOPP films, heat sealable BOPP films, and anti-fog BOPP films, wherein each of these films offers varied properties that makes it suitable for usage in wide range of applications. BOPP films are primarily employed in the food industry for packaging of frozen food, meat & cheese, pet food, bakery products and confectionaries, and fresh produce. Rising demand for these applications in various regions is likely to propel demand for BOPP films in the near future. BOPP is also used in tapes, tobacco packaging, gift packaging, cosmetics packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, lamination, and other applications. Flexible packaging is used in majority of these applications. Considering the extensive growth of the global flexible packaging market, demand for BOPP is projected to increase significantly in the next few years. Asia Pacific dominates the BOPP market in terms of production and demand. Countries such as China, India, Thailand, and South Korea are expected to be the key producers and consumers of BOPP. Growth of the market is likely to be restrained due to fluctuation in raw material prices, as these are dependent on crude oil prices and supply of BOPP in the market. These factors are projected to hamper market growth during the forecast period. Rising demand for specialty films in the packaging industry is expected to act as a major opportunity in the BOPP market in the next few years.

The Mobile nursing home abuse & neglect attorneys of Nursing Home Law Center LLC concern ourselves not only with representing the needs of those who have already been injured but helping the public avoid placing their loved ones into the kinds of environments responsible for harming others. Medicare provides invaluable information about nursing homes to the public, but many people are unaware of how to access this data or don't think to do so when they are searching for a center to tend to the needs of their loved ones. This is why we have composed a list of facilities for you that have a history of providing substandard care in the hope it will prevent many future cases of abuse.
Mobile is the third largest city in the State of Alabama and considered to be the largest municipality on the Gulf Coast. Its position between New Orleans and St. Petersburg made it an influence throughout history as a trading center and transportation hub. Its port is the twelfth largest in the nation and continues to play an important role in present day. The city is at the heart of a greater metropolitan area serving over 600,000— over 195,000 of which reside within Mobile's city limits.
Seniors represent a significant portion of Mobile's population and with many of the Baby Boomer generation looking to retire soon, the senior population may swell from the 13.7% share it currently holds. Seniors looking for ways to connect with their peers, participate in classes, take advantage of lunch programs or remain active through participation in exercise programs can find what they seek at the Connie Hudson Mobile Regional Senior Community Center. For more information, you can call (251) 602-4963. The Center is located at 3201 Hillcrest Road.
Our Mobile nursing injury lawyers created the following directory of nursing centers by using the nursing home compare tool provided by Medicare. Many people are unaware of the fact that Medicare maintains ratings for every nursing center across the country, so we took the time to use the data to highlight only the very worst centers so that you can avoid placing people you care about into environments that are detrimental to their wellbeing. If you would like to use the tool yourself, you can visit Medicare.gov website.
Primary concerns: All of the problems at this center originate with its unacceptable staff levels. For profit companies and partnerships often deploy the tactic of reducing staff levels or withholding funding for training programs in an effort to reduce overhead and increase margins. The result for this center has been numerous health and safety violations, a quality ratings score that reveals disdain toward assessing the needs of patients and a single star staff rating.
Primary concerns: The health inspection deficiencies experienced at this facility are so numerous and severe that they have brought its overall rating to two stars despite excellent scores in all other areas of evaluation. This means that patients may be exposed to unsanitary conditions, contagious diseases, medication errors, poor nutrition and hydration or the presence of clutter and other environmental hazards.
Primary concerns: The greatest demerit this nursing center received was due to its lack of reasonable quality measures. Medicare provides quality measures ratings based on the willingness and ability of centers to create and execute treatment plans tailored to the needs to individual patients and to keep them comfortable and safe. This facility has let its patients down in this regard.
Primary concerns: Health and safety concerns are common issues across the nation and this facility is par for the course with its abhorrent health record. More investment needs to be committed to ensuring that protocols are in place to keep patients clean, fed, medicated and protected from environmental hazards in a responsible manner.
Primary concerns: One star ratings in both health inspection history and quality measures are revealing of this center's true motives. Little investment is placed in making sure that your loved ones will be comfortable or safe while profits take priority.
Primary concerns: This is the poorest facility on our list because there isn't a single area of evaluation for which Medicare offered merits. A one star staff rating, unacceptable health and safety history and lack of quality measures entirely all make it a facility to take off your list for consideration.
Our Mobile nursing injury lawyers are currently trying to help the public combat the growing epidemic of negligence and neglect that our country is experiencing as many members of our population begin to enter their senior years. The entry of many for profit chains at the same time that lawmakers began to cut funding to nursing programs at the state and federal levels are responsible for allowing the current nursing care environment we have today. Only by recognizing the types of abuse and holding companies responsible can we promote healthy changes.
The most common forms of nursing abuse include the following.
The development of bedsores or infections due to the neglect of staff members. Patients that have mobility problems or present greater risk of infection need to be treated differently than those with no risk. It is often when care or supervision is not provided that problems ensue.
Hospitalizations due to falls, medication errors or nutritional deficiencies. Fall prevention begins with risk assessment because many patients are more prone to fall than others and many measures can be taken to reduce risk such as the removal of clutter, supervision of patients and marking of wet floors. Similarly, preventative measures can be taken to limit the number of medication errors and provision of food and liquids that do not meet patients' dietary needs.
Physical, verbal or sexual abuse. These types of abuse are unacceptable even though they are often not perpetrated by staff members themselves. Offenders are often other residents or visitors, which is why proper security measures need to be in place to protect patients. Caregivers may verbally abuse patients being neglected with threats in an attempt to prevent complaints or legal action.
Nursing Home Law Center LLC has long been the provider of award winning legal services to nursing abuse victims across the nation. Our focus on nursing law coupled with experience and success allow us to provide our clients with the greatest chance of success when looking to hold negligent nursing homes accountable for their misdeeds or neglect.

Dozens of people were killed or wounded on Sunday in the port city of Aden on the southern coast of Yemen as the result of clashes between the forces of the official government of Yemen, backed by Saudi Arabia, versus the Southern Transitional Council (STC), a separatist faction backed by United Arab Emirates (UAE) and claiming Aden as the capital city of Southern Yemen.
The internationally recognized government, led by President Abdu Rabu Mansour Hadi, who has been hiding out in Saudi Arabia because of the war with the Houthis. The Prime Minister of this government is Ahmed bin Dagher, who has been governing from Aden.
The Houthis, an Iran-backed Shia ethnic group from northwestern Yemen, which invaded and conquered Yemen's capital city Sanaa in 2013-14, taking control of all the government buildings.
The Southern Transitional Council (STC), backed by United Arab Emirates (UAE), which wants South Yemen to secede and become a separate country with Aden as its capital and STC as its government.
In addition, there is one more major non-government force in Yemen, and that is Al-Qaeda on the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). In recent years, AQAP's leadership has turned from harshly ideological Sharia policies that alienated the tribal populace into pragmatists that are making allies of tribal leaders, by providing security, protection, and a measure of stability.
Because of its location, the port city of Aden has been strategically important for centuries. In 1839, Britain captured the port of Aden and southern Yemen from the Ottomans and was made part of British India. Britain ruled Aden and southern Yemen, consisting of 24 tribal states (sultanates, emirates, and sheikdoms), until the 1960s.
Yemen's last generational crisis war was the Yemen Civil war, which began in 1962, and was largely a proxy war involving forces from Egypt, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Britain, the United States, and (pre-revolutionary) Iran. The Yemen Civil War ended in 1968, and in the diplomacy that followed, in February 1970 Yemen was split into the Yemen Arab Republic (YAR, North Yemen) allied with Saudi Arabia, and the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen (PDRY, South Yemen), a Marxist communist country allied with Russia. South Yemen was the Arab world's only communist state so far.
In 1990, at the end of the generational Recovery era, the two countries were unified into a single country, Yemen, in an agreement designed to eliminate all the tensions between the two countries. In many ways, this was a marriage of convenience, since relations remained tense, but it put Ali Abdullah Saleh into a clear position of leadership. There was an attempt at secession by southern secessionists in 1994, but it was put down quickly, leading to the entrenchment of Saleh's northern-based regime. Saleh governed Yemen most of the time since then until he was killed in December 2017.
Saleh was the country's president until 2011, when he was ousted as an outcome of the "Arab Spring" that affected countries throughout the region. Saleh was forced to turn the office of president over to his vice president, Abdu Rabu Mansour Hadi. Saleh then formed a "marriage of convenience" with the Iran-back Shia Zaydi Houthis in northwest Yemen. On September 21, 2014, Saleh and the Houthis captured Sanaa from Hadi's forces. Hadi was forced to flee Sanaa and has been living in exile in Saudi Arabia for two years. From the point of view of the international community, Hadi is still president of Yemen.
Since 2015, the war in Yemen was largely a proxy war between Iran versus a Saudi Arabia-United Arab Emirates (UAE) coalition. In November 2017, Saudi Arabia imposed a land, air and sea blockade on Yemen, giving as a reason to prevent the Houthis from importing more of Iran's weapons systems.
This blockade was a humanitarian disaster for Yemen. Yemen is already one of the poorest countries in the world and, because of the proxy war, mass starvation and disease have been spreading across the country. Aid from NGOs was only partially relieving the situation, but with the Saudi blockade, even that aid was cut off.
The blockade was apparently too much for Saleh. Early in December, he announced that he was separating from the Houthis and offered to mediate a ceasefire between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia. Three days later, the Houthis had him ambushed and killed.
The death of Saleh fragmented tribal opposition to the Houthis in North Yemen, giving the Houthis more substantial control over the north.
Now the UAE is backing the secessionist Southern Transitional Council (STC), indicating that the coalition fighting the Houthis is also fragmenting. In addition to making it even harder for NGOs to provide aid to help prevent massive starvation and cholera, this "war within a war" will help AQAP gain further control through alliances with other tribes.

Q: Insert into if not exists not inserting INSERT INTO my_table (field_1, field_2)
SELECT val_1, val_2
FROM my_table
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT field_1
                        FROM my_table
                        WHERE field_2 = val_2)
LIMIT 1

I can not use unique index on field_2 field.
I'm trying to insert if not exists a tuple with field2 = val_2.
Without the "where" clause, this insert.
With the "where" clause EVEN WHEN EMPTY TABLE, it won't insert.
Any help on that?

A: Solution is that check if key exist:
INSERT INTO my_table (field_1, field_2) ON DUPLICATE KEY INSERT IGNORE.

this question maybe useful.

A: I guess val_1 and val_2 are not columns of the table, right?
They are values that you want to insert in the table.
So drop:
FROM my_table

and use:
INSERT INTO my_table (field_1, field_2)
SELECT val_1, val_2
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
  SELECT field_1
  FROM my_table
  WHERE field2 = val_2
)

A: First create a unique index on the column or columns that you don't want duplicated.  I cannot tell if it is on both or just field_2:
create unique index unq_my_table_field_2 on my_table(field_2);

Then ignore the error using on duplicate key update:
INSERT INTO my_table (field_1, field_2)
    VALUES (val_1, val_2)
    ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE field_2 = VALUES(val_2);   -- this is a no-op, because the value is already the same

The fact the your code doesn't work on an empty table has nothing to do with the WHERE clause but with using from my_table in the from clause.  If there are no rows, then the query returns . . . no rows.  No surprise there that nothing gets inserted.

Well I'm almost ready to sell the X5 (E53), and need to put it back to it's native Italian language setting. For the OBD I'm ok, it's quite easy. The tricky part is the NAV which I think needs to be recoded and reloaded.
When I got the car, I took it to my indie in London to change the Nav from Italian to English. I think it took him about 30 minutes with the computer hooked up to the car, and I think it asked once or twice for the V1.32 CD and the Map DVD. Total bill. £40.
BMW indies in Milan area are rare and none of the ones I tried today seemed to have a clue how to do this.
Now I have a plan 'B'. In any case I need to change the loader mechanism, so I could either just get a new one, or send the MK4 off for repair.
Word of warning for anyone thinking of buying from powercomponents.nl - dont if you want something that lasts! - once again, that's WWW.POWERCOMPONENTS.NL = RUBBISH SUB-STANDARD COMPONENTS.
They sold me a 'new' loader (DVD-M3 4.6/7) 2 years back. Arrived covered in felt tip writing (apparantly on the production line they are all women and use this to remind themselves what they've done - BS!). The manager 'Paul' seemed decent enough then, but now doesn't give a sh!t. Offered me 5% discount on another dodgy refurb.
Actually it worked for 2 years and failed (not good for a NEW laser mechanism). This time I think its the motor not spinning up, but that just goes to prove that the unit was refurbed (as if the pen marks were not enough) - and not very well or completely. Probably they just change the laser and use a stockpile of faulty loader without checking the other components. If it works during the test, out it goes and fingers crossed is probably their moto.
Anyway, managed to find a guy on ebay that repairs the units for a good price (£85) if you send yours to him in Romania. Good feedback and also has promised to recode it into Italian for me.
Now for my first question: Does this make sense? Can the unit be coded out of my car as far as you know?

Changing the oil on your car is actually quite simple, saving you the cost of taking it to a mechanic. Check out the video or download the printable guide to get started. Remember to check what engine oil you need by using our Shell LubeMatch tool or checking your car's manual.
Changing the oil on a car is actually quite simple. We'll show you how to do it yourself.
Screen transitions to a page that lists the product names and pictures detailing exactly what a user will need to be able to perform the task of changing the oil on a car.
Here's what you'll need. Shell's LubeMatch online tool or the car's manual, oil, a pair of gloves, a pair of safety goggles, a car jack, jack stands, an adjustable wrench, a strap wrench, a screwdriver, a drain pan, some wipes, a funnel, an oil filter and oil.
Screen transitions into a white walled workshop with various red coloured tools, equipment and car maintenance items in the background.
The shot is taken from the point of view of the mechanic, and you see the mechanics left hand rise up and stop in the middle of the screen. The mechanic is wearing blue gloves and has a smart phone open on Shell LubeMatch.
Before you start, make sure you drive around a bit to warm up the engine, and check what engine oil should be used by visiting Shell's LubeMatch online tool or by checking your car's manual.
The screen changes to a shot of a red car, and the mechanic walks towards it carrying a car jack. He places it centrally beneath the car, and with both hands he quickly moves the handle in an up and down motion as the car elevates on its back two wheels. The camera then zooms in underneath the car, and the mechanic places the two jack stands equidistant from the centre and the edge of the car, creating a secondary support. The mechanic then removes the car jack.
Find a flat surface to park on, jack up the car, and slide the jack stands into place, and raise up the front until it becomes a secondary support point.
The screen changes to a shot of the workshop, and a counter with various pieces of equipment. The mechanic then lifts a pair of safety goggles with their left hand, and the screen then changes to the mechanic opening the car bonnet and securing it. The mechanic then unscrews the oil filter cap and places the lid next to it.
At this point, put on your safety goggles. To allow for a better oil flow, unscrew and remove the oil filter cap on the top of the engine.
The mechanic then uses an electric screwdriver to unscrew and remove the engine guard, placing it out of the shot.
In some vehicles, you need to remove the engine guard to reach the oil-drained plug. To do that, slide under the car on your back and unscrew the engine guard.
The mechanic then places a red tray beneath the vehicle and uses a spanner to remove the bolt at the bottom of the oil tank. Once the bolt is unscrewed, black oil flows out.
Grab an oil drain pan and find the oil drain plug – it's a bolt on the bottom of the oil tank. Position the pan underneath the plug before you unscrew it. Slowly loosen and unscrew the plug, rotating anti-clockwise.
The screen then shows the mechanic wiping their hands with a pale yellow cloth, and an animated clock appears centrally in the shot, signalling time passing. The mechanic then vigorously re-screws the bolt back in, using a spanner to secure it and wiping beneath the car with the cloth. They then remove the tray, which is now full of black oil.
Now grab a cup of tea or coffee while the oil fully drains, which can take 30-45 minutes. Once the oil is fully drained, screw the plug back into place, making the sure the copper seal is in place - but don't over-tighten. Remove the drain pan from under the car, along with any other tools.
The screen then transitions back to the workshop, where we see a red workstation with tools scattered across the surface. The mechanic then picks up equipment, slides the now empty tray beneath the car again and removes the existing filter by twisting it in an anti-clockwise motion. Residual black oil spills out as the mechanic removes the filter from its place.
Now the oil's drained, you can change the oil filter. Locate the filter in the engine bay under the bonnet and remove the existing filter by twisting anti-clockwise. Be ready for any residual oil drips.
The screen then transitions to the mechanic dipping their right finger into a grey bottle and rubbing the rim of the new filter three times anti-clockwise with oil.
A useful tip is to wipe a little fresh oil around the seal of the new oil filter. This creates a better seal and will make it easier to remove the next time you do an oil change.
The mechanic then reaches beneath the car and using their right hand screws the filter in repeatedly and quickly until it is securely in place.
As you twist the new filter into place, make sure not to over tighten or cross the thread.
The screen transitions to the workshop, and poised overlooking the open car bonnet, the mechanic unscrews the lid of the oil and places it down.
The mechanic - still overlooking the open car bonnet - places an orange funnel into the relevant hole and pours the bottle (labelled Shell Helix Ultra) into the funnel.
Now pour in the right amount of fresh oil, using a funnel.
The mechanic then pulls the dipstick out by pulling on a yellow toggle, revealing a long black stick which is then wiped clean using a yellow cloth and placed back in its holder. The mechanic immediately removes it once more to check the oil level, wiping it once more and putting it back in place.
Once the new oil has been poured in, allow a minute for it to settle. Then remove the dipstick, wipe it clean and replace it. Almost immediately, take it back out and check the new oil level. Add further oil and repeat the checking process until it's full.
The mechanic then removes the orange funnel and using their left hand screws the oil cap back on.
Screen transitions to the mechanic getting into the red car, sitting down and turning on the ignition. Lights flicker across the dashboard as the engine begins running.
The screen then transitions to the mechanic still sitting in the car, facing the steering wheel. Wearing blue gloves, the mechanic lifts their left hand and holding a smartphone open on the Shell App, scrolls down it. Landing on a section called 'Oil Change', the mechanic then selects 'Set Reminder', and flicks through to the date 1st February 2018.
Set up a reminder on the Shell App.
Now, set up a reminder on the Shell App so you know when the next change is due. You've now successfully changed your engine oil and oil filter, giving your engine a new lease of life.
Whatever your driving challenges, Shell Helix engine oils are designed to meet your needs. Try our fully synthetic motor oil, Shell Helix Ultra with PurePlus Technology that's made from natural gas and designed for ultimate engine performance.

May 16 Topeka Habitat for Humanity Celebrates 106th Home with Special Dedication
Topeka Habitat for Humanity is pleased to announce the completion of the organization's 106th home, located at 3335 SE Powell Street. This home is the third home completed in a planned five-home development in the Rolling Meadows neighborhood. The dedication and blessing ceremony will take place at the home on Friday, May 24, 2019 at 5:00pm. The ceremony shall be unlike any other dedication ceremony previously performed by Topeka Habitat, as the Twemlow-Allen family plans a memorable surprise for all attendees.
This new construction will serve as the forever home for the Twemlow-Allen Family: Danielle, Tyler, and their five children: Charlie (19), Malcom (16), Isaiah (16), Owen (9) and Ramona (3). The Twemlow-Allen Family has completed 700 hours of "sweat equity", as well as home ownership and budget counseling education, before assuming their zero-interest, principal-only mortgage to Topeka Habitat for the home.
"Our partnership housing model provides an opportunity for large families like the Twemlow-Allen family to pursue affordable home ownership and to further be engaged in the community by working alongside all of our many partners and volunteers," said Janice Watkins, Executive Director Topeka Habitat for Humanity.
Advisor's Excel has once again collaborated with Topeka Habitat for Humanity on the project to provide furniture and household items for the Twemlow-Allen family, prior to the dedication.
"We are so excited for this opportunity for our family, we have all worked hard towards this day. The outpouring of support from the community has been so touching, we look forward to sharing this special occasion with everyone." said Danielle Twemlow, Future Topeka Habitat Homeowner
The public is welcome to attend the blessing and dedication ceremony. The Twemlow-Allen Family and Topeka Habitat staff will be available for photos and interviews.
About Topeka Habitat for Humanity: Topeka Habitat is a non-profit, community housing development organization that brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Dedicated to ending substandard housing, Topeka Habitat builds simple, decent, affordable homes in a partnership model. Qualifying families receive home ownership education, connectedness to their communities as they volunteer 300-1000 "sweat equity" hours and ultimately, an opportunity to own their own home through an interest-free loan. All of these efforts are additionally by the Topeka ReStore, located at 121 NE Gordon, which sells donated home improvement items at a discount to raise funds for Topeka Habitat.

At any time after your marriage, you and your spouse may decide to enter into a marital agreement to address how your rights and responsibilities will be determined. This can be done whether or not you are thinking about a divorce, but if you and your spouse have separated, you and your lawyer may determine that the best way to address the resulting issues is through the negotiation of a marital agreement. These agreements can resolve the division of assets, custody of children, and support. The agreements can then be incorporated into a court order without the need for a hearing.
Our attorneys understand that divorce litigation can be a very stressful and costly experience for a family and that the best way to resolve matters is through the skilled negotiation and drafting of a settlement agreement that protects your interests and keeps you out of court. Our attorneys have been able to resolve even the most highly contentious divorce cases through skilled negotiating aided by years of experience and expert understanding of the law surrounding complex family law issues.


This research was conducted to evaluate the effect of turmeric water extract, garlic and combinations of turmeric and garlic as feed additives in broiler diets on the physical and sensory quality of broiler meat. During the study, the chicken were given 5 feeding treatments, i.e. R0 (basal ration without phytobiotic and antibiotics) , R1 (basal diet + 0.015% zinc bacitracin + 2.485% filler), R2 (basal ration + 2.50% TE), R4 (basal ration + 2.00% GE + 0.50% filler), and R5 (basal ration + 2.50% TGE). The base diet was composed of: yellow corn, meat and bone meal, poultry meat meal, soybean meal, oil, mineral mix, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate, salt, L-lysine-HCl, and DL-methionine. Variables observed were physical quality (pH, water holding capacity, cooking lose, and tenderness) and sensory quality. Data regarding physical quality were statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by the orthogonal contrast for significant results, and data of sensory quality by non-parametric methods such as the Hedonic Kruskal-Wallis test. The results showed that the physical quality of meat had no effect (P>0.05), except the significant water holding capacity (P<0.05) which was lower with phytobiotic extract supplementation. All sensory test parameters in fresh and cooked meat had no effect (P>0.05) following phytobiotic extract supplementation, except for the color and acceptability (P <0.05) in fresh broiler meat. The conclusion of the research was that 2.5% TE, 2.0% GE and 2.5% TGE is capable of acting as a feed additive to increase the physical and sensory quality of broiler meat.

Ostrava-born Israeli man thanked for life-long dedication to furthering mutual relations
https://english.radio.cz/ostrava-born-israeli-man-thanked-life-long-dedication-furthering-mutual-8606633#player=on
Chanan Rozen, photo: Martina Stejskalova
Chanan Rozen, who is in his late 80s, was the oldest person honoured last week at the Czech Foreign Ministry's annual Gratias Agit awards for promoting the good name of the Czech Republic around the world. For sixty years, Mr Rozen has been working to further relations between his native Czechoslovakia and Israel, where he has lived almost all his life.
Chanan Rozen, born Valtr Rosenzweig in 1918, recalled his dramatic journey from Czechoslovakia to Israel two decades later.
"I was born here, in Ostrava. For the first 20 years of my life I lived in Ostrava, and only Ostrava - there was no money for travelling in those days. In 1939 myself and two of my brothers went illegally to the then Palestine, on a pirate ship. We finally got to the coast of Palestine, but we were convinced we were actually on Cyprus or Rhodes, until we found our older brother, who was one of the first pioneers there from Czechoslovakia."
Chanan Rozen's brother had been in Palestine for some years, and had acted as a guide there to the first president of Czechoslovakia.
"He left in 1926 and a year later accompanied Tomas Garrigue Masaryk on his historic visit to Palestine. He was the first head of state to visit the Jewish state that was then being built. That was the rebirth of the Jewish nation."
Czechoslovakia had been founded in 1918, in rather different historical circumstances. But Mr Rozen says he sees some parallels between the two peoples.
"There were symmetries in the fates of the Czech and Jewish nations. The Jews lived for a thousand years on Czech territory and they had good relations with the Czechs. It was especially good in the First Republic under Masaryk. He was the first statesman to recognise Jewish nationality - before that we had to declare ourselves either Czech or German. So, we really have many, many ties."
Not long after the state of Israel was founded in 1948, Mr Rozen set up the Israel-Czechoslovak Friendship League, an organisation which has since changed its name but which he still heads to this day.
"In Israel there are around 65 organisations linking Israel with other nations. And it is no coincidence that ours was the first to be established, by Max Brod and I. That was an expression of the relations between the two states and reflected the great help the Czech nation gave during the hardest days of our fight for independence."
The Max Brod he was talking about there is indeed the same Max Brod who was friends with Franz Kafka, and saved the great writer's works from oblivion.

Doctors have been worrying for a few years now about a nasty skin infection called community-associated MRSA, which has moved from hospitals into the outside world, afflicting groups from gay men to football players.
Now, there are signs that the disease can be spread through sex. Or, as one new report suggests, via a kind of close body contact.
In a letter published in the *Annals of Emergency Medicine *in January, [a doctor] reported treating a lap dancer for MRSA infections on her buttocks.
"She relayed that other lap dancers at her clubhad similar problems, considered a known occupational hazard by thewomen," he wrote.

114. The Battle Maiden is Raising a Black Dragon (4)
The Returnee Noble Lady Attacks His Majesty the Dragon Emperor Translation
by Antoinette Vanessa February 23, 2021 February 27, 2021
"Hence I decided to raise a black dragon! Thank you in advance!"
"Hadith, that morooon—!!!"
Today as well, Hadith's older brother, Listeard, was shouting in the office. As she leaned forward to look at the desk, she could see that the documents were piling up.
"It's a golden-eyed, black, dragon!? Basically, a Dragon King!? Where else in the world would you find a moron that'd let his Dragon Princess, an 11-years-old girl, raise such a dragon!?"
"The soon-to-be-Dragon Queen, if I may correct you. Also, the one who let me do so was none other than your younger brother, Your Highness Listeard!"
Jill replied cheerfully, and Listeard sank on his office desk. He seemed to be in pain.
"That moron barely even attends the morning meetings on a regular basis. Many high-ranking officials have escaped, and the hierarchy system is messed up. More than half of the Imperial Army, including the general, is missing—they're collapsing! Those remaining are those of lower positions, who weren't only unable to escape, but also don't know the actual situation! If I want to reform the imperial capital, I, as a member of the royal family, will have to fund it myself due to the lack of manpower! My homeland… has sunk… my homeland has sunk this low!"
"Don't fret, Listeard. There's no choice but to nominate a Dragon Queen. Besides, Jill is a solid candidate, not to mention…"
Elynsia, the sister of Hadith and Listeard, glanced at Jill's bag as she picked up documents that had fallen from the desk. From the face and nose exposed from the bag came the low snoring sound of a dragon.
"…He's pretty cute? However, he doesn't appear to be the king of dragons…" Said Elynsia.
"Right? He's just like His Majesty! Even though he can't fly, or even walk properly, he's very cute!" Said Jill.
"Stop, please stop, saying that he doesn't exude a kingly atmosphere, that's he cute, then to top it off, that he resembles the emperor of my kingdom…! I can't stand it…!"
"For the time being, he has to be taught how to fly. Usually, dragons learn from other dragons, so why not provide a space for him in the imperial capital's dragon hut? Let's introduce him to the other dragons so that he might learn something." Said Elynsia.
"I've already did. However, the moment I took him there, he cried and ran away."
"No way, did Brynhildr and the other dragons bully him?"
Jill shook her head in a hurry towards Listeard's words.
"No, it seems that he was just surprised. This child is used to be alone. As such, he doesn't seem to know how to deal with other dragons."
What actually happened was, not only did Rho cried, he rushed, fluttered, ran around, stumbled, and rolled around, before finally ending up reduced into a sobbing black dragon. It was also hard for the other dragons.
After all, Rho was the second king of the dragons after the Dragon God Rave. As such, the other dragons also tried to protect him. In response to the confusion, Rho cried even harder. Around that time, Hadith ran away, saying, "I just can't bear seeing him. I'll leave the rest to you…"
"Now that it has come to this, let's keep him inside the imperial castle… normally, when caring for such a high-ranking dragon, we'd build a castle and dedicate it to him. A caretaker must also be prepared to welcome him… the national treasury…! Time to check the national treasury…!" Said Listeard.
"L, Listeard, get a grip! Even if you were to pass out, the budget won't increase!" Said Elynsia.
"It's not really about building such a thing or hiring people…" Said Jill.
Camila, who was watching from the office's doorway, chimed in.
"Jill-chan, you haven't paid us yet."
"Haven't we been provided with a bed and food? Our clothes and weapons were also provided in kind. As of the moment, the priority is to handle the aftermath of the fake emperor mayhem. As long as you have no problem with eating or sleeping, everything is alright."
Zeke reassured Camila. However, as his captain, listening to his words hurt. A little hesitant, she asked.
"Uh, the national treasury, is doing bad, I take it…?"
"Yes." Elynsia nodded seriously.
"It seems that the people who fled the imperial castle during the turmoil also looted the national treasury. Expenses are low because we're currently on a shortage of manpower… which might be something to be grateful about. It's also the reason why your engagement ceremony with Hadith is being postponed. The reason why you can't stroll about the imperial castle as you please as the Dragon Queen stems from our financial difficulties…"
Towards Elynsia's words, Jill shook her head.
"I, it's alright! Before the engagement ceremony, I'd like to pay my subordinates, first…"
"The fact that the Imperial Army was half-destroyed is quite a blow. My hands are full with securing the defense of the imperial capital. As expected, I have to stay vigilant. It's unfortunate that the Imperial Army fled, but at the very least, I wish I could locate the whereabouts of General Sauss."
Elynsia pondered with her arms crossed, while Listeard regained his composure.
"We've completely lost our footing. As such, there's no other way but to steadily advance."
"Would it be possible to get information from a dragon flying around that area?" Asked Jill.
"Unless they're high-ranking dragons, they won't be able to individually discern ordinary humans, or even distinguish them in detail. In the first place, General Sauss is aware of the situation. If he were to be alerted of some dragon sightings along the way, he'd surely went into hiding with the other fleeing Imperial Army." Said Listeard.
"But he's moving with a large number of troops, right? Even if they try to disguise it, if they're lurking somewhere, there's a good chance they're leaving traces." Said Jill.
At Jill's inquiries, Elynsia shrugged.
"Precisely. I think there's a high chance someone is hiding them."
"Would that someone be the Duke of Fairert?"
Within the Rave Empire existed three archdukes hailed as the, 'Three Dukes'. For a long time, they had supported the royal family. The Duke of Fairert with his military port city, the Duke of Leirzatz with his trading city, and the Duke of Noitral with his fortified city. Since it was customary for the Emperor of the Rave Empire to take the daughters of the Three Dukes as princesses, they were also considered relatives of the Rave royal family.
Listeard's grandfather was Duke Leirzatz, while Elynsia's uncle was Duke Noitral. Georg, the mastermind behind the fake emperor mayhem, had Duke Fairert as his backing.
Generally speaking, Duke Fairert and his associates should be the most vigilant at the moment.
However—Listeard sighed.
"Duke Fairert denies his involvement in uncle's incident. In fact, there's no evidence that the fleeing Imperial Army is heading for Faerert's territory."
"Where are they headed, then…"
"If possible, it should be Radea's territory. It's a place my uncle ruled on behalf of the archduke. But I had no way of confirming it, as I busy as I was."
Jill's shoulders sagged upon hearing Listeard's report. Beside her, Elynsia spoke.
"I'm worried that the fleeing Imperial Army hasn't fallen apart—as in, it's still moving as a group."
"No way, are you suggesting that they aren't merely fleeing, but are also planning for vengeance?"
"That's also possible. After all, my uncle did succeed on winning over part of the Imperial Army… although I hope there won't be any more rebellions…"
Jill turned her attention towards Listeard.
The rebellion which had occurred in the Rave Empire back when Jill was still 11-years-old in her former life was caused by Georg—and also Listeard, who stood before her as of the present.
However, she didn't think Listeard would betray Hadith anymore.
There shouldn't have been any other major uprisings around this time… but, the war with Kratos is still up ahead…
Thoughtfully, Elynsia rubbed Jill's shoulder in a soothing manner.
***T/N: Aaah… Listeard is still being Listeard, I see.

Back with another tip. As pointed out by @rybolov's comment on twitter, Burp Suite may be somewhat difficult for folks new to the Suite of tools. One thing that I find interesting is how folks that use the tool (like myself) can learn something new everyday. Sequencer is one of the tools included in Burp Suite that I think requies a bit of an introduction. Once understood, this tool along with Intruder can be a powerful session attack combination.
You will notice I define Burp Suite as a suite of tools and this is for good reason. It is truly my belief that this tool is fast becoming a one-stop shop for dynamic analysis of an application. The free version of the suite is excellent but for those who test professionally, tools such sequencer and intruder must be threaded otherwise valuable functionality might be lost. I say this because when breaking a session token sequence to hijack a session....... timing is critical. With that in mind, show @portswigger and yourself some love by purchasing the product at portswigger.net.
On with the tutorial. In our example, we have registered for access to the site. We have also identified a login submission form. After successful authentication with a limited access user account we are provided a cookie 'set-cookie'. The idea is here is since we can log into the site and are provided only one session value (the cookie) we might be able to submit another user's cookie value and access the site with their account. In other words, session hijacking!
For example, I'm given session value abcd1112 and using sequencer I've noticed that only the last four digits change. The response would be abcd1113 abcd1114 up to abcd1212. So I've evaluated this session value and noticed it has extremely weak entropy.
My next step would be to request a resource just beyond the login form such as welcome.php and do this in a threaded fashion manipulating my cookie value using Intruder. The responses might vary in byte length. For instance I've noticed a large byte return in one instance indicating more functionality returned so this might be an administrative account.
At the Sequencer > live capture tab we want to select the cookie to evaluate which would be the value immediately following 'set-cookie: badentropy='. The selection drop down is highlighted in red.
By default, 100 session values will be evaulated and only after this is completed can you analyse the entropy. Burp Suite analyzes this for you btw ;-). So after the 100 session token values have been generated we've clicked the 'analyse now' button at this screen and determined that the site only increments the last four digits by 1 and sequentially by viewing the summary tab in this screen. So this is extremely weak entropy. Lets try to exploit it!
Now because the last value provided at the sequencer BY the application was badentropy=abcd1212 we will start at abcd1213 when positioning our payload.
I've already provided a tutorial on my blog how to use Intruder > numbers so the rest of this can be referenced at intruder/numbers paylod.
The thing to remember here is that you are looking for items of interest like varying byte length and response code. Obviously if you are given a 302 response when incorrect credentials are given and you've observed this in some of the responses and not others this might be a sign that the cookie submitted is not a valid. If the 200 response received in the other cookie values are all approximately the same size in byte length except for one or two those might indicate privileged accounts.
Hope this tutorial helps someone and as always, happy hacking.

Notre Dame To ACC: Changes To The ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Format
By Brian F. Sep 14, 2012, 2:28pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Notre Dame To ACC: Changes To The ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Format
March 11, 2012; Atlanta, GA USA; The Florida State Seminoles celebrate their win of the 2012 ACC Men's Basketball Tournament at Philips Arena. Florida State won 85-82. Mandatory Credit: Paul Abell-US PRESSWIRE
With Pittsburgh and Syracuse set to join the conference next season, the ACC was already anticipating a move to a five-day format for the ACC men's basketball tournament. Though Notre Dame makes it 15 programs, an odd number, don't expect the new format of the conference tournament to change much.
Commissioner John Swofford thinks that this new format will remain largely the same after Notre Dame joins, with three games being played on Wednesday and the top-four seeds continuing to receive early-round byes. The dreaded double-bye? Oh yes, the double-bye.
Heights Sports put together a sample bracket for your viewing pleasure:
via heightssports.tumblr.com
I guess I can live with this format if the conference moves the tournament somewhere ... anywhere other than Greensboro, North Carolina. Like, you know, a major East coast city easily accessible to the conference's 15 member schools? If you are going to spend up to five days holed up at the conference's basketball tournament, I can think of a few East coast cities better than Greensboro, North Carolina. But that's just me.
Here's an even better idea: why don't we qualify the top 12 programs for the tournament and leave the format as-is?
In other ACC men's basketball tournament news, the city of Pittsburgh and the CONSOL Energy Center has put together a bid to host the ACC men's basketball tournament while the rest of the ACC collectively laughs. Slow down there, new kids.

Q: How do I read all the contents of a HTML file inside of my jar and store it in a string I have an HTML file under a directory in my JAR file under pages/newTab.html, and in Eclipse it obviously is in res/pages/newTab.html. My goal here is to read the contents of the whole HTML file and store it in a String.
I have tried multiple ways to get the file as a resource, then read it with a BufferedReader, it works in Eclipse, but not in the Runnable JAR. This is normally how I get the file as a resource, this works in Eclipse, but not in the Runnable JAR.
getClass().getResource("/pages/" + url.substring(7))

Here is what I have so far.
File file = new File(getClass().getResource("/pages/" + url.substring(7)).toURI());
FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(file);
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
StringBuffer stringBuffer = new StringBuffer();
String line;

while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
    stringBuffer.append(line);
    stringBuffer.append("\n");
}
fileReader.close();

jep.setContentType("text/html");
jep.setText(stringBuffer.toString());

jep is the JEditorPane we are printing the text to.
EDIT: I do get an java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI is not hierarchical when Running the Runnable JAR with File file = new File(getClass().getResource("/pages/" + url.substring(7)).toURI());

A: Save the html outside the jar, this is what you can do with configuration files and other stuff like that. Create a folder for the application and store the executable jar and html inside.
  - application\
  ------- executable.jar
  ------- htmlFile.html

now do something like this:
    try {
        List<String> lines = new ArrayList<>(Files.readAllLines(Paths.get("htmlFile.html"))));
        String content = "";
        for (String line : lines) {
              content += line + "\n";
        }
        jep.setContentType("text/html");
        jep.setText(content);
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Industry Press Room
Clorox Professional Products Company Debuts New Brand: CloroxPro
SOURCE: Clorox Professional Products Company
New brand spans industry-leading healthcare and commercial cleaning portfolios to protect shared spaces and defend public health
PLEASANTON, Calif., October 29, 2018 – Today, at the ISSA Show North America 2018, Clorox Professional Products Company is proud to unveil CloroxPro, a unifying new brand encompassing its industry-leading healthcare and commercial cleaning products. The new brand acknowledges the common challenges and unique needs of the commercial cleaning industry and the importance of cleaner, healthier shared spaces in all our lives.
"Commercial facilities, like schools, offices, gyms, hotels and hospitals all need to maintain clean, pleasant environments and kill germs that can cause illnesses and outbreaks," said Lynda Lurie, Director – Marketing, CloroxPro. "CloroxPro recognizes the dual imperative of cleaning for aesthetics and cleaning for health and the value that a comprehensive, unified portfolio brings to facilities that need to do both."
Beginning today, the new CloroxPro brand and tagline, "Where clean means everything," will come to life in a variety of ways, from a new logo and updated packaging, to today's launch of the new website, www.CloroxPro.com, and @CloroxPro Twitter handle. The look and feel of advertising campaigns and our presence at trade shows and industry events will also reflect the new unified brand. While our products will not change, some of our cleaning product labels will be updated in phases with the new branding.
Our Commitment to Public Health
Illnesses and outbreaks have always been a risk in communal settings, but in today's fast-moving, global world, outbreaks anywhere have the potential to threaten health everywhere. The rise of community-associated infections and growing threat posed by antibiotic resistance only heighten this risk and make preventing and controlling the spread of infections within and between facilities an urgent priority.
"In shared spaces, the impacts of illnesses and infections multiply quickly and create ripple effects that are felt at individual, facility and community levels," explains Lurie. "Every year, the flu alone leads to thousands of illnesses and deaths, millions of missed days of school and work and billions of dollars in lost productive time, but it doesn't have to."
Built on more than a century of cleaning and disinfecting expertise, CloroxPro is uniquely positioned to help reduce the burden of illness in the many shared spaces where we come together to work, learn, play, travel, socialize and heal.
CloroxPro offers the industry's most robust portfolio of professional solutions, including cleaning and odor removal products, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-registered surface disinfectants for healthcare and commercial settings and advanced ultraviolet (UV) and electrostatic sprayer technology. Its products are trusted by professional sports teams, leading hospitals, and schools and workplaces throughout the country, and contribute to healthier environments every day.
For more information on the new CloroxPro brand and our commitment to public health, visit us at the CloroxPro booth (#3108) at ISSA, online at www.CloroxPro.com, and follow @CloroxPro on Twitter.
About CloroxPro
Building on a century-long legacy in cleaning and disinfecting, CloroxPro offers some of the industry's most recognized and trusted brand names for commercial cleaning, including its Clorox Healthcare products and technologies for healthcare facilities. Whether it is schools, offices, restaurants, hotels, hospitals or other commercial facilities, CloroxPro is committed to meeting the demands of industry professionals.
