Q: React-native Flatlist doesn't list my json local file I met an issue with my Flatlist in Board.js which doesn't display the content of a json data located inside a file BoardData.js.
However I ve console.log the import of the BoardData and seems the json isfine.But when Istart to read on some data via the flat list. the data are undefined.
See my BoardData.js file :

My most effective voodoo love spell is my Conjure Box spellworking, which is cast in an old, disused graveyard and involves summoning the Graveyard Snake. It is mostly used for returning ex lovers, though it is also very good for bringing love into your life generally.
The conjure box ritual is performed in an old Victorian graveyard, but the first step involves collecting together and preparing the ingredients that go into it. These include a clay charm, which I fashion by hand, and mix into it various powders and incenses that are specially blended to be effective with your particularly case.
There's also a Venus root and a lucky sixpence, both of which will sweeten the heart of the one you love. Using pen and ink I also draw a spirit sigil, which comes from "unknown tongues", the language and voice of the spirits. Plus I include some graveyard dirt from the ritual area, which is anointed with Patchouli oil for maximum power.
I spray the conjure box black, so it has a kind of obsidian glow. After that I cave sigils into it with my knife. These sigils are drawn from unknown tongues (like the above clay charm) and are colored red. These sigils are symbols of power in themselves, but they also attract the appropriate spirits, adding numinous power to the working.
Once all this is done, I begin the voodoo spell itself, which involves reciting incantations in unknown tongues over a specially chosen cemetery grave. I use my pendulum to select the appropriate grave, which is typically that of somebody who was successful in love during their lifetime. The pendulum helps me communicate with the spirit, and find out if they are willing to give their blessings to the spellworking.
At this point I enter a spirit trance, allowing a powerful voodoo entity called the Graveyard Snake to possess me. I call upon this mighty spirit to grant your desires. And working through me, the Graveyard Snake charges the ritual items – wish papers, lucky sixpence, clay charm, etc – with power. At the end of the voodoo ritual, I place the items in the conjure box.
I leave offering for both the Graveyard Snake and the spirit from the chosen grave. These can be liquor, cigars, flowers, roots and so on. At that point, the voodoo love spell is activated.
When I return home I package up the items into the conjure box, compose a letter describing what to do next, then mail the items over to you. From this point, it is only a matter of time before the love spell manifests its energies and brings the results you want.

View Full Version : which 22-250 bullet?
Hi, I have a 22-250 and the twist is 1 in 12" I was wondering which grain bullets I should be shooting for accuracy on paper?
In my 1-12 it likes Sierra 53gr HP match just sort them by bearing surface.
Shakewell519: Be sure to try the Berger 52 gr. bullets in your 22-250. I have had great performance from them.
i also just tested a load with seirra 52gr match bullets. I first seated 5 rounds .020, .010 and .005 off the lands. .005 off the lands while using the middle powder charge gave me .5MOA accuracy and i havent even began to mess with the powder charge yet. I was using varget if you wanted to know.
I use knight and barts 52gr with great success in all my .22cals. and fireball fred- custom made bullets are usually cheaper than factory bullets and there is no sorting needed.
Get a box of 52gr Sierra MK's and a box of 53gr Sierra MK's and let your rifle decide. Then start buying them in bulk.
Get a box of 52gr Sierra MK's and a box of 53gr Sierra MK's and let your rifle decide. Then start buying them in bulk.That what I would do also.
Sierra and Bergers and tune it with seating depth and H380 powder.
22-250 is an easy round to tune.
Another vote for the 52gr. Berger's. I used to shoot the SMK's till I bought a box of them. Now I have several hundred SMK's that sit on my shelf! No contest in both of my 250's.
When I had my 22-250 I never shot target bullets, but of the polymer tipped bullets the 55gr vmax was most acuurate( perhaps because it is flat based) in front of 38.5 grs H380. aver. group size at 100yds was under 3/8".
That's what I was thinking when I read that.
it might have been luck that i shot him in the head but thats the only thing of him that i could see. he was facing directly toward me on his belly. oh, and 500 yards was a guess, i used google maps and a dial caliper to figure out he was actually 604 yards if you want to be exact. :D I found where the ground hog was, then where i was, and with my dial caliper measured the distance between me and the ground hog then used the scale google maps provided to figure out exactly how far he was. Its amazing how accurate these bullets are. (40gr. V-max) In another instance i shot a ground hog @ 330 yards cold bore. seen him at the creek from my window and popped him. The Savage 12FV i own is a shooter especailly coupled with accurate bullets. When i shoot factory 40gr V-maxes it groups a little over 1 MOA. With hand loads its one hole groups.


Lee, Daniel (2011) Development of high-resolution two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy in solid-state NMR : applications to nanocomposites and fullerides. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
Two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy in solid-state NMR is an immensely important tool for the analysis of materials, such as technologically interesting nano-materials or bio-materials. After detailing one method that returns high-resolution one-dimensional solid-state proton NMR spectra, high-resolution proton-proton two-dimensional correlation experiments are described and demonstrated. Subsequently, a new two-dimensional NMR experiment is described which is suitable for obtaining a high-resolution proton dimension in heteronuclear dipolar correlation spectra of solids. This new experiment has been used to characterise the interface between the organic and inorganic components of "coreshell" colloidal nanocomposite particles. In addition, a new two-dimensional NMR experiment is described which is suitable for obtaining homonuclear scalar correlation spectra in solids. This new experiment has several advantages, including increased cross peak intensities coupled with good suppression of the diagonal. Its utility is demonstrated via carbon-13 spectra of natural abundance samples as well as the polymer phase of caesium fulleride.

Don't lose the passion for your passion.
Do you ever start to feel stagnant in your professional pursuits? Losing momentum on something that was once a driving force in your career? It happens. We get so busy DOING our work, that we forget to feed our growth and development. Such was the case for me before last week.
I have been passionate about the WIAL (www.wial.org) method of action learning since being introduced to it during my masters program at George Washington University (www.gwu.edu). So much so, that I sought out certification as an action learning coach. I was subsequently appointed to the Executive Board of the World Institute for Action Learning, teaming with action learning professionals around the world to promote the practice of this powerful change agent, leadership development tool, and team building methodology. But, I lost momentum along the way. Over the past year, I've had little contact with my colleagues and at one point wondered if maintaining my certification made sense.
This past week, WIAL-USA sponsored the 10th Annual World Institute for Action Learning conference in Washington, D.C. I almost opted not to attend. But in the end, decided to attend. And what a wonderful decision it was! Not only did I reconnect with action learning colleagues from across the globe; from Singapore, Thailand, England and China, but I reconnected with the art of action learning itself. I was reminded by Rich Walsh from the Center for Creative Leadership of the power of action learning as an organizational change agent. Cliff Kaysar, from Polarity Partnerships, shared his insight on how Polarity Thinking and Action Learning combine to make a powerful tool, A panel of senior government professionals attested to the power of action learning in their studies at American University and how it has made a difference in their work.
Yes, it was a powerful reminder of the impact action learning can have on individuals, teams and organizations. It reminded me of why I became passionate about action learning years ago and the seemingly magical impact it can have. I came away from the conference ready to bring action learning to the forefront of my work. Curious now? Is your organization struggling with the same old recurring problem? Want to impact a culture change that sticks? Having team performance issues, or problems with employee engagement? Learn more about how action learning can have an impact on you, your team, your organization. I'll be happy to bring a free presentation and demonstration to your organization.

A French soldier shot and seriously injured a man in a shopping area beneath the Louvre Museum on Friday after he launched an attack while shouting "Allahu akbar", officials have said.
Police union official Yves Lefebvre said the man was carrying two backpacks, and had two machetes, and reacted when soldiers told him he could not enter with his bags.
A soldier opened fire and the man was struck five times, once in the stomach, Paris police chief Michel Cadot said.
The backpacks did not contain any explosives, he added. One of the soldiers was slightly wounded on the scalp.
A spokesman for the military force that patrols key sites in Paris says the four-man patrol tried to fight off the assailant before opening fire.
Spokesman Benoit Brulon says the soldier who was slightly injured by the attacker was not the soldier who opened fire.
The French interior ministry said anti-terrorism prosecutors are investigating the attack but that there were still no details about the identity of the attacker. "Allahu akbar" is the Arabic phrase for "God is great".
The museum in the centre of Paris is one of the French capital's biggest tourist attractions.
Staff members have returned to the shopping area after police had sealed off entrances around where the attack took place.
Roadblocks were also cleared after the area had been closed to traffic for a while.
Interior Ministry spokesman Pierre-Henry Brandet said that a second person also was arrested but it is unclear whether they were linked to the attack.
Mr Brandet said about 1,000 people were inside the actual museum and were held inside in safe areas.
Conor Bakhuizen, 18, is in Paris on a school trip and, in a Twitter exchange with the Associated Press, he said he "was in the foyer and suddenly rushed into another room in the museum".
Olivier Majewski was just leaving his scooter in the parking area beneath the Louvre when he saw about 30 or 40 people running and screaming "there's been a terror attack".
The 53-year-old said he hid for about 15 minutes before making his way upstairs. He said people were clearly scared.
The attack took place only hours before leaders of Paris's bid for the 2024 Olympics unveil their final candidate files.
French officials have repeatedly dismissed security concerns over the bid despite a wave of attacks that has left more than 200 people dead in the country over the past two years.
The attack will raise more questions before Friday's ceremony near the Eiffel Tower.
Speaking outside the Louvre, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo, who will attend the ceremony alongside athletes and other bid leaders, said all big cities in the world are under threat.
She said that "there is not a single one escaping that menace".
Paris, which has not hosted the Olympics since 1924, is competing against Budapest and Los Angeles.
The International Olympic Committee will choose the host city in September.

Rooted in YYC
Mount Royal grad grows local food and business
You have a big idea. A really, really big one. It has something to do with growing food locally and sustainably — reducing waste from travel as produce moves from farm to fridge.
You do some research. You ask some of your profs. You take an entrepreneurship class. You pitch your idea to your peers. You take their thoughts into consideration, step back, regroup, massage and manipulate. You pitch again … to venture capitalists and angel investors at Mount Royal's JMH LaunchPad Pitch Competition. You earn $30,000 to start your business.
You want to grow food year round aquaponically and farm an unusual breed of fish — in Calgary. You haven't yet finished university, but you're going to do what it takes to make this dream a reality.
"From an early day, I always challenged the status quo and I never really wanted to take the typical path," says Paul Shumlich, MRU alumnus, co-founder of Deepwater Farms and one of the Calgary Herald's 20 Compelling Calgarians for 2019.
After graduating in 2017 with a Bachelor of Business Administration — General Management and a minor in innovation and entrepreneurship, Shumlich knew he was destined for a different career.
Deepwater Farms is a state-of-the-art aquaponics operation producing fish, greens and herbs with little to no waste. Shumlich saw entrepreneurial opportunities to improve Calgary's food supply chain and wanted to provide restaurants with year-round, high-quality local ingredients.
It's that kind of entrepreneurial spirit that Calgary is known for and Mount Royal aims to foster. MRU is home to five institutes that support student growth beyond the classroom and into the community. Shumlich's experience was made possible through the Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, which supports development of high-impact talent essential to the continued economic prosperity of Alberta.
"Paul is a perfect example of the entrepreneurial mindset that the Institute fosters in our students," says Ray de Paul, director, Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship. "He clearly demonstrates the passion, adaptability and grit that is necessary to succeed in whatever you choose to do in life."
For Shumlich, it's important to help support and grow the local economy. "For us, 'local' implies quality and sustainability. By supporting local, we get to employ more people and keep talent here."
Shumlich has built partnerships with high-end restaurants in Calgary that share a passion for local, sustainable and unique ingredients. One restaurant, Yellow Door Bistro with the Hotel Arts Group, shares this philosophy with Deepwater Farms.

"We are trying to support Calgary's economy and buying local has always been important to us," says Quinn Staple, executive chef, Hotel Arts Group. "We are always looking for purveyors who have unique products and something we can showcase."
The Yellow Door Bistro features Deepwater Farms on their menu, serving local business growth and consumers — providing local and sustainable products Calgarians crave.
Shumlich believes his entrepreneurial success has come from the skills he learned through his experience at MRU. "Going to Mount Royal in the entrepreneurship program made it easy to understand how to approach the problems that we saw existing in the world. It gave me tangible steps to proceed and solve the next problem.
"The door opened and it was a natural progression from school to where we are now."
MRU alumnus brings practical learning to Calgary's restaurant scene
After graduating with a Bachelor of Business Administration — Marketing, Tarek Van Doore landed his dream job with Hotel Arts Group as their marketing and design coordinator. "My role encompases both the creative and strategic side of marketing, which I really enjoy," Van Doorne says. "No day looks the same in my role. I could be doing photoshoots in a restaurant kitchen in the morning and interviews by the Hotel Arts pool in the afternoon."
Van Doorne believes hands-on learning at MRU launched him into his career. "The projects we took on were for real businesses and unexpected problems would arise. It taught me to be adaptable."

Carlson pointed out that "no one in Washington thinks the Biden presidency is glorious anymore. They think it's a disaster. Polls show that voters strongly agree. Joe Biden is now the most unpopular person in virtually any room he enters." Carlson described the scene at the White House, noting that "Biden tried to horn in on the conversation swirling around Obama. Everyone involved in that conversation, including Kamala Harris, who supposedly works for Biden, ignored Biden completely."
Woke Medicine's Got A Tricky Operation: Grafting 'Systemic Racism' Onto Hard Science
Just a few years ago, concepts such as "white supremacy," "systemic racism," and "structural intersectionality" were not the standard fare of prestigious medical journals. These are now the guiding ideas in a February special issue of "Health Affairs" that focuses on medicine and race.
'The red wave has already started': Riot-ravaged Kenosha elects first Republican leader in decades
It's a local election that should be national news — but the mainstream media isn't interested. Voters in Kenosha County, Wisconsin, which became infamous for its 2020 riots and the 2021 prosecution of Kyle Rittenhouse for defending himself during the violence of 2020, went to the polls Tuesday to elect a Republican who campaigned partially on linking her Democratic opponent to the failures of the Biden administration and "the liberal status quo."

US tested hypersonic missile, reportedly kept it secret to not anger Russia
The U.S. military successfully tested an air-launched hypersonic missile, but reportedly kept the test a secret in order to avoid raising tensions with Russia. On Tuesday, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) announced it successfully launched a version of the Hypersonic Air-breathing Weapon Concept (HAWC), developed by Lockheed Martin, from a carrier aircraft. DARPA said it was the second successful test of a HAWC design, after the first one was completed in September of 2021.
On the Covid-Xe Variant Bull_hit
This is what happens when you throw billions of dollars at scientists that have no business even studying the mating habits of ants. They have no clue what they are looking at, and just start spouting whatever BS they can come up with in order to get more cash thrown their way. …one researcher … said his lab got samples of Covid from saliva, mucus, and feces. I asked how he knew the samples have Covid. He said, "Because they said they do."
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott directs use of buses to drop off migrants at steps of Capitol in DC
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said Wednesday that undocumented migrants released into his state will be shipped to the steps of the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C., as border checkpoints struggle to manage the flow of people attempting to enter the United States and the Biden administration's move to eliminate the Title 42 expulsion provision. "We are sending them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border," Abbott said.

Zelensky looks to Israel as model for Ukraine to emulate
Zelensky vowed to rebuild after the conflict, turning his country into a "big Israel." "Ukraine will definitely not be what we wanted it to be from the beginning. It is impossible. Absolutely liberal, European – it will not be like that,"
As Russia-Ukraine war continues, Israel could capitalize on Europe's energy crisis
With Europe eager to wean itself from its dependence on Russian oil and gas, the war in Ukraine could mark a 180-degree turn in Europe's energy attitudes with renewables taking a back seat to more robust, if less politically correct sources. Europe's shift takes place just as Israel has jumped on the renewables bandwagon, most recently halting gas-exploration licenses to focus on developing renewables.
The prohibition of leavened bread on Passover just took down the Israeli government
The ruling coalition party teeters after a member of Bennett's own party left after a dispute over Passover kashrut in Israeli hospitals. One rabbi cited an ancient esoteric text which described just such a situation as a harbinger of the Messiah. Nitzan Horowitz, the acting Minister of Health, issued a letter to hospitals in Israel ordering them to allow patients and visitors to bring chametz (leavened food) into the hospitals during the eight days of Passover. Horowitz, who is openly gay, is from the far-left Meretz party … .

Q: EXEC statement and Transaction Scope This seemed so easy at first but everything I know seems to be wrong again.
Looking at PAQ's the consensus seems to be that EXEC does not start an implicit transaction, you can test this doing :
create procedure usp_foo
as
begin
  select @@trancount;
end
go

exec usp_foo;

which returns 0.
If you however step through this with the T-SQL debugger @@Transaction is in fact 1 inside the procedure according to the watch, although it does return 0 ...
So I think this is a side-effect of the debugger, but then I write some code to test it, do an update in a table and then select max (id) out the, the classic :
create table nextid
(
  id int
)

insert into nextid values (0)

create procedure nextid
as
BEGIN
  UPDATE nextid set id = id + 1
  select max(id) from nextid
END

So I am expecting this to give out duplicate id's as executed in parallel 2 updates can complete before the 2 selects fetching the last id and returning the same value, but try as I might hitting it from multiple machines I cannot make it break. When monitoring the locks and transactions on the machine it reports that the exec is happening in a transaction and importantly, all the statements inside the exec are treated as one unit of work/one transaction.
I would understand if the update was in a transaction and this was the cause of the lock, but the lock seems to remain until after the select.
If I trace with profiler I can see that a transaction ID is provided for the entire execution of the EXEC statement, and transaction ID is not 0 as I would expect while executing ...
Can someone please explain to me where I am missing the plot or am I wrong and it is in fact safe to generate ID's like that?

A: Your test must be giving you correct results because you are not fast enough to invoke the second call in between these two statements. Try adding a delay and you can see that the test would start failing.
CREATE TABLE NextID
(
    ID int
)
GO

INSERT INTO NextID VALUES (0)
GO

CREATE PROC GetNextID
AS
BEGIN
    UPDATE NextID SET ID = ID + 1
    WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:05'
    SELECT Max(ID) FROM NextID
END

Issue an EXEC GetNextID and issue another EXEC GetNextID as soon as you can from another session. About 5 seconds later both EXEC would return same result i.e. incorrect value. Now change the SP to
CREATE PROC GetNextID
AS
BEGIN
    BEGIN TRAN

    UPDATE NextID SET ID = ID + 1
    WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:05'
    SELECT Max(ID) FROM NextID

    COMMIT TRAN
END

and repeat the above test. You would see that both calls would return correct value. In addition second call (if issued as soon as possible) would return result approximately in 10 seconds because the UPDATE is blocked and has to wait 5 seconds (for the first call to COMMIT) and then its own 5 second wait.

KZN MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (Cogta) Nomusa Dube-Ncube has called for zero tolerance in communities for those who prey on the most vulnerable in our society. Dube-Ncube made this call at a Human Rights Day event in the KwaDukuza local municipality today.
Dube-Ncube urged residents not to be complicit in covering up abuses of women and children that might take place within their families "It is important that we face the scourge of abuse of women and children head-on in our communities and within our families. People who are aware of such abuses and do not report them are complicit – in the violation of the rights of the most vulnerable in our society," said Dube-Ncube.
The area of Ntshawini has experienced a series of incidents, including murders, which have warranted a direct response from the law enforcement agencies. Observing Human Rights Day in Ntshawini is aimed at addressing the scourge of crime and the abuse of women and children within the district, especially in this area.
The celebrations were also attended by Mayor of KwaDukuza Cllr Ricardo Mthembu who urged residents of Ntshawini to work together with the law enforcement agencies to ensure that those who are perpetrators of abuse ultimately face the full might of the law.


Krampus is a dedicated 29+ trail bike that can go over, off of, or through just about anything in its path.
As the first "plus" bike to hit the market, Krampus changed the way many people approach trail riding. It's shown people the light of how high volume, large diameter tires can vastly improve the ride experience. It's also done a bang-up job dispelling the myth that big tires make you slow.
Krampus is kind of like the opposite of a mullet: long in the front and short in the rear. With a long toptube and compact chainstays, it takes trail-shredding abilities to the next level. A mullet may be business in the front, party in the back but Krampus makes partying its business.

The structure of the church is characterized by unity and diversity, as stated by Paul in 1 Cor 12:12: "For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ" (ESV). Such unity in the body of Christ reflects a reality for which He prays in John 17. Honoring diversity in implementing the Seventh-day Adventist mission allows for effective response to specific conditions while still maintaining global values and identity, as exemplified in Acts 15.
We recognize Christ as the head of the church (Col 1:18). We are guided by the Bible as our only creed, the Holy Spirit who inspired and interprets it, the writings of Ellen G. White that shine light on it, and a resulting spirit of Christlike forbearance. As such, we are compelled to reject the spirit and direction of this document voted at the 2018 Annual Council (hereafter indicated as "the document"), as it is not consistent with the biblical model of the church. We simply cannot, in good conscience, support or participate in the implementation of the process outlined in the document, as it is contrary to the culture of respect and collaboration taught in the Bible (Zech 4:6; Rom 14:13; 15:7; 1 Cor 1:10; 2 Cor 13:11; Phil 2:5; Eph 5:2).

The performance of a state lattice motion planning algorithm depends critically on the resolution of the lattice to ensure a balance between solution quality and computation time. There is currently no theoretical basis for selecting the resolution because of its dependence on the robot dynamics and the distribution of obstacles. In this paper, we examine the problem of motion planning on a resolution constrained lattice for a robot with non-linear dynamics operating in an environment with randomly generated disc shaped obstacles sampled from a homogeneous Poisson process. We present a unified framework for computing explicit solutions to two problems – i) the critical planning resolution which guarantees the existence of an infinite collision free trajectory in the search graph ii) the critical speed limit which guarantees infinite collision free motion. In contrast to techniques used by Karaman and Frazzoli , we use a novel approach that maps the problem to parameters of directed asymmetric hexagonal lattice bond percolation. Since standard percolation theory offers no results for this lattice, we map the lattice to an infinite absorbing Markov chain and use results pertaining to its survival to obtain bounds on the parameters. As a result, we are able to derive theoretical expressions that relate the non-linear dynamics of a robot, the resolution of the search graph and the density of the Poisson process. We validate the theoretical bounds using Monte-Carlo simulations for single integrator and curvature constrained systems and are able to validate the previous results presented by Karaman and Frazzoli  independently using the novel connections introduced in this paper.


In accordance to PADI (the Expert Affiliation of Dive Instructors) kids can be qualified as Junior Open up Water Divers as early as the age of 10. Young children build bodily and mentally at diverse costs, generating it difficult to determine an age at which all young children can securely dive. A child's maturity, reasoning skills, and physical restrictions ought to be taken into account when identifying if he is all set to start scuba diving.
Hyperbaric scientists can't just take youthful youngsters diving and expose them to various dive profiles and risk elements just to see how many get decompression sickness or dive-connected accidents. Such experiments would be unethical. A lot of the debate about young children and diving stems from the simple fact that there is no concrete experimental evidence to show that scuba diving is possibly risk-free or harmful for young children.
* Is the youngster medically fit to dive? See the standard diving medical demands.
* Is the kid comfy in the drinking water, and can he swim? He will need to have to move a swimming check.
* Does the kid have a adequate consideration span to hear to and discover from class conversations, pool and open up h2o briefings and debriefings and other interactions with an instructor?
To guarantee that young divers don't exceed their restrictions, the Junior Open up Water certification comes with constraints. Divers ten-11 many years previous have to dive with a PADI Professional or a licensed father or mother or guardian, and dives can't exceed twelve meters/40 toes. Divers twelve-14 a long time previous should dive with a qualified adult and dives can't exceed 18 meters / sixty ft.
Following the age of 15, depth and buddy restrictions default to these of a normal PADI Open up Drinking water Diver. Divers who have been to begin with licensed as a junior diver and would like to receive a new card that merely claims "Open Water Diver" can buy a substitute from their PADI Dive Middle.

ANTHONY BURGESS ONCE COMMENTED THAT 'ALL NOVELS ARE EXPERIMENTAL', and while that appears true of such work as A Clockwork Orange and Napoleon Symphony, I think he would be delighted with Adam Roberts' The Black Prince, based on a 90-page screenplay that Burgess wrote, which was never filmed.
Roberts, an academic, great Burgess fan and acclaimed author in his own right, seemed the ideal person to take on the task of bringing Burgess' vision to life. He first came across the project referenced in an interview published in the Paris Review, in 1972, in which Burgess said he was working on a historical novel and thought it might be amusing to 'steal the Camera Eye and the Newsreel devices from Dos Passos just to see how they might work, especially with the Black Death and Crécy and the Spanish campaign', musing that the effect might be of the 'fourteenth century going on in another galaxy where language and literature had somehow got themselves into the twentieth century'.
Thinking that there might be an incomplete work that he could possibly finish, Roberts got in touch with Andrew Biswell at the Burgess Foundation, quickly discovering that if he wanted to proceed, he would have to write the whole book himself. And he did, basing it on Burgess' initial brief and screenplay.
The Black Prince is Roberts' book, but one that unapologetically channels and pays homage to Burgess. That's probably no surprise given that Roberts has often stated that he loves Burgess. He also reread all of the author's work to try to recreate his tone authentically and adopted techniques from Dos Passos, as Burgess wanted.
The result is a brutal, very visceral and extremely filmic depiction of Edward's campaigns in fourteenth-century France, written in such a way that we, the reader, feel that we're experiencing everything first-hand from different POVs. And that's something that gives the story colour and brings the brutality of that war – any war really – to life.
Fans of Roberts' own books might find it strange that he has written a historical novel as he is primarily associated with the science-fiction genre, but several of the techniques of and approaches to writing historical fiction are similar. This is also Roberts pasticheing Burgess pasticheing Dos Passos – and it works.
That said, if you prefer sanitised versions of history – and Edward, the Black Prince, is a compelling, often romanticised figure in literature – well, this book is not for you. Burgess' and Roberts' evocation of Edward and medieval Europe is much darker, multilayered and far more real than other books set in this period, and, in my opinion, all the better for it.
Interviewed about the book, Roberts was asked if he were the best person to write this book; he responded that he wanted to produce something of which Burgess, if alive, would be proud, or at least not ashamed. He has.

Jose Mourinho has taunted Tottenham over their failed pursuit of Willian after helping Chelsea woo the Brazilian out of the arms of Andre Villas-Boas.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy was said to be furious on Friday night at the £32million hijacking of the club's primary transfer target after Mourinho accused them of making a fatal mistake by not managing to keep details of the player's medical a secret before Chelsea swooped to steal him from under their noses.
The Chelsea manager rubbed salt into the wound by revealing Willian had still to undergo a medical at Stamford Bridge, so confident was he of wrapping up a £32 million deal for the playmaker. That could take almost a week, with the 25-year-old having still to put pen to paper on what is expected to be a four-year contract or to obtain a work permit.
Mourinho could barely conceal his satisfaction when asked how confident was of pipping Spurs. "That's a good question because I think he already made his decision," he said, nodding like the cat that got the cream when asked if that decision was Chelsea.
Villas-Boas had previously failed to sign Willian for both Chelsea and Tottenham while the player had been at Shakhtar Donetsk, who eventually sold to mega-rich Anzhi at the end of the January transfer window.
The Russian club's decision to rein in their spending saw him put up for sale, with Liverpool the first to make a move. Spurs followed but it was the intervention of Roman Abramovich that seems to have proved decisive, the Chelsea owner personally calling Anzhi counterpart and fellow oligarch Suleyman Kerimov to agree a fee.
That allowed Willian to enter into talks with a third Premier League club in less than a week, something over which Tottenham are understood to believe the player had little say.
Indeed, there is a feeling at White Hart Lane that Chelsea do not truly want Willian but were keen to prevent Tottenham signing him. That was categorically denied by Chelsea.
Villas-Boas will be anything but happy at losing out to his former mentor Mourinho in the battle for a player who would have been the star signing of the summer.
Willian's arrival was also thought to be the trigger for Gareth Bale's world-record £93million move to Real Madrid, but the winger is thought to be confident that the deal will still go ahead in the coming days. Spurs maintain that any departures this summer are independent of arrivals.
The Bale transfer may have to wait for them to decide on their own alternative to Willian, although signing Roma forward Erik Lamela may help convince them the time is right to let their talisman go. They could even try to sign whoever Mourinho decides to let go once Willian completes his move to Chelsea.
Victor Moses looks the likeliest casualty, having not featured at all this season. Mourinho's revelation also means that should Chelsea succeed in signing a striker before the window closes, one of Fernando Torres, Demba Ba and Romelu Lukaku could also be sacrificed.

Rat Queens #10 Review
By Max Delgado on Tuesday, April 7th, 2015
The epic final battle is finally here! Except it's pretty quick. And not too epic. But that's okay. Really.
Palisade is shattered and recovering from the grand battle against the Spawn of N'Rygoth while the Rat Queens try to pick up the pieces of their fractured bond. Hey, we never promised it would all be candy and drugs.
Recap: Palisade is under attack, Sawyer is held hostage, and the Rat Queens latest enemy has unleashed a squid-like monster that defeats its foes by placing them in a state of suspended animation where they can daydream anything they want. Yes, it took several issues (and several detours) for this battle to ultimately come to a head but hats off to Kurtis J. Wiebe for constructing an arc that allowed backstory and front-story to play so elegantly together. Ultimately, with all this build up, the climax feels like a let down with issue #10 — the action is wrapped up mid-book and the final half of the issue is spent with the Queens walking around, mending relationships, and reminding us what just happened. If you like chatter, and tidy bows on stories, you'll like issue 10 for sure. That said, one of the things that this protracted ending allows readers to see is that Wiebe is in this for the long haul. While this series may have started off as a cocktail of violence, sex, and camp, it's clear now that Wiebe is trying to deepen the Queens into real complex characters — they have fears, loves, and acres of history to back up that sass. And that might be the best thing that the final meanderings of issue 10 provides.
As everybody knows by now Stjepan Sejic took the reins after the departure of Roc Upchurch. And while Upchuch has been missed (and will hopefully always have a home with Rat Queens), Sejic continues to do an amazing job capturing the Queens in all their dangerous and beautiful glory. The coloring of issue 10 (which Sejic also handles) is especially beautiful here — take a gander to see how he captures the wash of sunlight and rain. It's awesome.
Rat Queens is trying to evolve to new places with issue #10. And I'm happy to join them.

If you're in the business world, you should know that when someone asks, "What's your website address?" it is important to always have a URL to give. "I don't have one yet" or "I'm working on it" are not good answers. Having a well-designed, well-established, professional looking website, always makes a good impression for any business owner.
However, it is better not to have a website at all than to have an unprofessional tacky looking website. It is important to realize that you'll do much more harm to your business by representing your business in a less than tip top manner.
If you lack the know-how, talent, or aptitudes to create an excellent design yourself then, you can employ a professional web designer. Web designers can be quite costly, but you still should think about it carefully before deciding to cut corners. Maybe you could revise your budget or possibly try to bargain for all or part of the work to build your website.
If you have your website copy written, you can save yourself time and money. Present your web designer with the basic text and the layout of how you would like the website to look. You can also present him with some color schemes, and send links to other sites that you would like him to get inspiration from. Obviously, you don't want to copy someone else's site, but a few ideas can help speed the process.
Financially speaking, the more work you do in person, the better it will be, because you must note that many designers work by the hour. If you would like links in your website, inform your designer and make sure you submit them to him in the right format. Also, make sure to forward all the right photos to your web designer. They do need as much information and media as possible in order to get you exactly what you want. Most designers will edit the finished work, but unfortunately, each edit will cost you.
There are quite a few fast web design companies out today, who advertise that you can have your website up and running in an hour. However, bear in mind that most of these tools such as canned templates, are for beginners. They won't succeed in giving you a professional looking site. If you would like a profitable website for your business, remember that image is everything; so avoid cutting costs and hire a qualified web designer.
