Faerie Tales & Folklore
A Roleplayer's Guide to the Mythological Earth
A License to be Extraordinary
August 18, 2018 / Morgan T. Corey
There is a common trope in roleplaying games which often tries to define a beginning character as a nobody, an insignificant person within a great and wondrous world. This basic concept however is not born out by most of the cinematic or literary inspiration that draws people into the fantastic world of roleplaying. For characters who exist within the Mythological Earth, exceptional is often the point. In this blog, I am going to discuss the idea of exceptionalism from the perspective of a roleplaying setting and why I tend to urge such players to seek such exceptionalism should they choose.
To begin, we should first look at a few popular protagonists from fiction and determine if they are indeed exceptional from the beginning, or if their "extra something" was found at a later point in the tale. This should provide a backdrop for the remainder of the article, while offering examples of the aforementioned exceptionalism. I will detail three heroes: one from cinema, from which I chose Luke Skywalker; one from literature, that being King Arthur Pendragon; and one from mythology, where Achilles seemed a fine choice.
Let us start with Achilles, the seemingly deathless war machine who nearly felled the lineage of Troy single-handedly. By looking at the beginning of the tale of Achilles, we see that he is no "regular guy". His mother Thetis was a nereid, a type of oceanic nymph, and his father Peleus was the king of the Myrmidons. Alone, these two facts move Achilles far afield from the "regular guy" label and into the realm of "born this way". As the tale goes, when Achilles was a small child, Thetis dipped him in the river Styx while holding him by his ankle. The river's waters made young Achilles invulnerable everywhere save the place his mother held him, his heel. Thus, we can determine that Achilles is a high man with the "invulnerability" option (at least as far as Faerie Tales & Folklore is concerned). To be honest, this is as far as we need to go with this mythological figure. We have shown, by the myth's own telling, that he was much more in the beginning then a mere ordinary man.
Now we shall look at Arthur Pendragon, King of Britain. This one is just as clear, as the man was born to be a king! He had the lifelong support of Myrddin, one of the most famed wizards in all of the world's mythic traditions. Arthur carries the legendary sword Caledfwich, or Excalibur, which was alternatively either given to him by Nimue, AKA "The Lady of the Lake" or it was drawn by him from an anvil atop a rock. In the case of Arthur, his lineage and any potential otherworldly nature is a matter of debate, after all, he was taken to the land of Avalon upon his death– Which is not common for those without greater ties to the Otherworld and its inhabitants. It is known that he was born to be a king, and that he was watched over by the greatest of magic's practitioners. This certainly marks The Once and Future King as something far beyond your "average joe".
This brings us to Luke Skywalker, the greatest farm boy of recent fictional memory. Here again, Luke was the son of one of the greatest sorcerers of his era, that being Darth Vader. He was the direct descendent of a life brought into existence by magic itself (or the force, or midiclorians depending on your level of fandom) and was born with the possibility of even exceeding his father's impressive abilities. Care was taken to make Luke's beginnings seem humble, just as was done with Arthur above, but the truth is simple– Luke was never "just a farm boy" from a lawless desert planet (and no, Han was the only one who shoots). By the end of his arc, Luke could send a projection of himself clear across the universe to save his friends as he faced his failed student. By the rules of Faerie Tales & Folklore this puts the moisture farmer from Tatooine as a high man AND a magic-user, both of which are anything but normal.
This penchant for fantastic beginnings is not limited to these figures either. Aragorn, as told of by Tolkien, was a member of a dying branch of people known as the Dúnedain who were blessed by the valar. Bilbo and Frodo were born with the ability to be ring bearers. Ulysses, of the Odysseia, was the grandson of Autolycus, son of Hermãhãs (the god). Paul Atreides, of Dune fame, was not only born the heir of a MAJOR noble house, but he was literally the culmination of a massive eugenics project intent on creating a superhuman of nearly godlike ability. Sétanta, or Cú Chulainn, was the son of, or an incarnation of, the god Lugh. Romulus and Remus were twin brothers raised by a she-wolf and born the sons of Mars. Even one of the oldest known tales, that of the hero Bilgamesh, tells the story of a man who possesses impossible strength. These tales merely scratch the surface of exceptionalism within the characters of our favored stories. In fact, a case could be made that a lack of an exceptional nature, in one form or another, is more rare in the fiction of our people then is its presence.
To support this ideology, Faerie Tales & Folklore encourages players to fill roles of epic heroes, otherworldly protagonists, and born kings of men. That is not to say that playing a character who came from nowhere is frowned upon, much to the contrary, it is simply important to recognize that exceptionalism is extremely common in the tales which our hobby draws from. As mentioned above, Achilles is a high man with the invulnerable option and the single class of fighting-man; Luke Skywalker would be a high man with a standard mutliclass of fighting-man and magic-user (same with Paul Atriedes); Arthur is a common or high man who's class is fighting-man but is most importantly a noble; and Wayland, the smith, is a low man with the ability to enchant. By allowing players the freedom to be exceptional through their characters, they are allowed to tap into those very stories which inspired them.
Faerie Tales & Folklore is not built around the highly formulaic structure prevalent in many modern systems. The enemies players face are not likely to come at the characters in neatly packaged doses preselected specifically for a party's level of experience. Myth, literature, and the cinema are never that fair, and for good reason. It is that sense of real danger, of real risk versus reward, that gives a good tale meaning. The same is true of roleplaying, without risk, the reward means little. This fact does not mean a player needs to be falsely limited to provide them a challenge. A king can be challenged by his people or his neighbors; a great warrior by evermore powerful creatures or larger armies; a magic-user might be under near constant assail from both supernatural forces and terrestrial prejudice; and a sneak-thief might always be tormented by the law, or their own insatiable greed. Any character will face serious challenges within the Mythological Earth, provided the narrator or referee has created such challenges for their players. For this reason it is important for the players to ensure that the referee has a clear understanding of who their characters are and the extent of their capabilities. This helps ensure that the referee can create an experience that is enjoyable for the whole group.
One way I have come to view the class/level structure of games based around D&D, is to consider it a form of destiny. For such purposes consider the abilities the character will possess at their highest level as the hallmarks of their eventual fate should they survive.
Example: A common man who has the class of fighting-man and took the background of landed noble could be seen as having the destiny of "Chosen by the ancestors to become a great hero, then lead his people in their struggle for independence, and eventually become their king."
Everything named in that character's "destiny" is a perfect explanation of the abilities that character gains as their level increases. Thus, class can easily be seen as a measure of some portion of the character's destiny. In this way, only the character's of each player and the actual villains of the narrative have a destiny, as class becomes an easy way to quantify the future. By using class as a form of destiny, the idea of exceptionalism is further reinforced, including a sense of exceptionalism in the villain. The players and their characters can be seen as influential actors in important moments of history, they might still be essentially nobodies, but they are one's writing the tale as it happens and that makes them something more– That makes them legends.
The Mythological Earth, as presented in Faerie Tales & Folklore, is not a game about the farmer who's lands were burned by a warlord. It is the game about those who rise up to challenge that warlord. It is a game about those who do not hide from the dark, rather those who seek out what goes bump in that dark. These are not often "regular" people, but heroes, anti-heroes, and simply those who fancy themselves fit for a some grand purpose. This is, after all, what adventures and heroes do, they seek out their destiny and those tenacious enough to see their destiny through to its end become immortalized in myth, story, and tale.
Enjoy your time at the game table friends–

A Statement of Inclusion November 21, 2018


Have you ever had a review of how well you have been doing in your job? Often we are assured that we are doing our job quite well, but we may also be encouraged to improve in certain areas. Most of us are relieved when the evaluation is done and we can go back to doing what we do—and trying to improve in those certain areas.
Jesus had traveled back to Galilee, and as word spread about the things he had been doing, people wanted to see if the stories they had heard were actually true. The people in his hometown knew him as Joseph's son, so they were really curious—and rather doubtful—about him.
Jesus goes to the synagogue, pulls out his job description from Isaiah, and begins to read. He outlines why he is going from place to place and sharing the good news—God's story of grace, forgiveness, healing, and love. The description in Isaiah shows why he heals lepers, declares the good news of God's love, and invites others to follow him. It explains why people who were blind can now see, and why others can walk even though they were paralyzed. Jesus is accomplishing his mission.
When Jesus invites us to join him on the road, he calls us to do as he is doing. Are you serving him with the gifts he has given you? Are you ready for your job evaluation?
Dear Jesus, thank you for making your directions for our lives clear. Help us to serve you faithfully in all that we do. Amen.

Luxoft: Enhancing the relationship with your car

Key Trends Shaping Automotive UX And UI Design
Olaf Preissner, head of UX design at Luxoft, outlines four major trends in mobility and their impact on user experience and interface design.
"In our advanced projects with our customers, we are considering the big influences for the future and the major trends in the mobility revolution. Our UX [user experience] team makes design and styling concepts and does a lot of research, also working on a series of products that will be on the street in two or three years' time. For me, it's all about the user experience, which will become much more important.
For our LUCEE concept, we thought about HMI, and the pain points when driving an electric vehicle. This has a lot to do with trust: how long people can drive for; where they can find charging stations; how long charging will take; the different connector types; the price; is the charger occupied; and what they can do while the car charges. Here we have to think about the information the driver needs and the use cases.
You have a lot of styling possibilities with a digital instrument cluster, but we have to collect information, structure it, and design it in a way that's safe and meets all legal guidelines. In LUCEE the driver is always aware where the next charging stations are, and how they could extend their range, for example by switching to an 'eco' mode with heating or climate control off. You see the influence on the system completely, in a clear and visual way.
It's important how we transfer this information to the driver: in a graphical representation, but also with some interactive behaviour, so they feel both comfortable and safe. It's a mindset we have to work on. There are also new services: to directly reserve a charging station, or maybe recommendations for shopping while the car is charging. I think an AI component will be really interesting.
We integrated a personal assistant into LUCEE, to personalise the infotainment. It can help, perhaps in an urgent situation, or to give a recommendation or alert. We see a trend for much bigger displays, and we think that with a lot of information coming, you need some assistance: a small robot or concierge to structure the information not only by screen design and UI layout.
This is about the feeling of interacting with consumer products. It's normal to control your smartphone by touchscreen, and you expect device personalisation; but the consumer electronics world is faster than automotive, so we have some challenges. These include the flexibility to integrate new systems – features people experience at home, like Alexa or Siri.
There's also the issue of modality, like switching between touch and voice controls: you have to consider the display, the information showing, and take this into account in screen design and how you build up your UI. In the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, for example, you have a touchpad, voice control, steering wheel controls – and the feedback from all of these has to be reflected in the graphical representation.
Sharing economy and mobility as a service (Maas)
We are looking at wider smart mobility too: what we've done with [recent Luxoft acquisition] Smashing Ideas for BMW's Reach Now mobile app, for example. ReachNow wanted to create a mobility experience that includes multiple services. As a member you can use one app for car sharing, ride hailing and even renting a car for multiple days. It's a more holistic view of transportation or mobility. The unification of these services is only the beginning of what will happen in this space, and it's been great to help ReachNow be at the forefront of this trend. We know that users increasingly will stick with companies that provide them with an overall seamless experience and a nice overview to see the advantages and disadvantages of different options.
With autonomous driving, you can really concentrate on other things. We've developed a virtual reality demo that we are showing at CES, without displays: instead, you have VR glasses, and the information could be shown in different places in the car where it may be more useful. We can focus on entertainment or ambience, and new use-cases – for example, you can 'see' inside a restaurant to check which table you would like, and book it directly.
When you are working with gesture control, that gives you a lot of possibilities. You see your virtual menu, but there's no dedicated display: you see it via augmented glasses as a projection, and you can move your hand to point to and select a virtual object. This means we can use much larger display areas than screens, and we can place interfaces really close to an object to interact with.
This is a completely new user experience, and we have to do some usability testing, to see how we can interact in this new environment. What we recognise from feedback when we show off our VR demo is that you interact really intuitively, but in a completely new way. In the future, this will be absolutely fantastic."

Meet the German man who's travelling around the world on foot
The 68-year-old retired carpenter entered Assam on December 20, covering over 14,000 km, 15 countries and 13 Indian states so far

Guwahati: Meet Jacob Kuno, the 68-year-old German national who is travelling around the world on foot. Starting his epic journey from Berlin in his home country in mid-2017, Kuno reached Assam on December 20 after covering a distance of over 14,000 km, spread across 15 countries and 13 Indian states.
When EastMojo caught up with Kuno on Tuesday afternoon, he was having a cup of tea at a roadside tea stall near Narengi in Guwahati. When the shop-owner discovered that she was serving tea to a man who has walked 14,000 km to reach that spot, she was flabbergasted. For Kuno, however, such reactions are not something new. "I would have reacted the same way," he said, with a smile on his face.
Kuno's journey was inspired by his wish to see the world. "I wanted to do this before I die," said the retired carpenter who, at the time of this story being filed, was passing through Jagiroad in Morigaon district of Assam.
After travelling through Eastern Europe and some countries in Asia, he entered India through Gujarat before walking through 12 other states in the country to set foot in Assam. "From here, I will go to Nagaland and Manipur, before travelling through Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, the US and then back to my home country," Kuno added.
Talking about his experiences during the journey, Kuno said: "The difference between countries is small, but when you move from one country to another, these small differences add up and then the differences become wider. Practices, culture and mentality vary from region to region. So, we can learn from each other and respect each other."
"There are several rules in the world but we cannot follow them blindly. We need to be rational. When I was walking in India along the right side, the police told me that I was wrong. But I told him that as the vehicles here ply on the left and if I walk along the same side, I won't be able to see if a vehicle crushes me. So, I chose to walk on the right as I used to do in Germany," he added.
During his journey through India, what struck him the most was that the people here were less responsible to "themselves and to nature". "People here do not take care of themselves. They should be health conscious. That is a basic difference between Germany, where the average lifespan is around 80 years, and India where it is about 68 years. They also should be more responsible to nature and conserve the beauty of world," he added.
Kuno was thankful to the German government for the retirement pension which helped him to undertake the epic journey.

Summary: The overall objective of the EnerGAware project is to reduce energy consumption and emissions between 15-30% in a sample of European social housing by changing the energy efficiency behaviour of the social tenants through the implementation of a serious game linked to the real energy use of the participants' homes. The serious game to be developed and deployed in the EnerGAware project is expected to increase the social tenants' understanding and awareness of the options for reducing energy consumption in residential buildings. The energy consumption of the social housing pilots, as well as the awareness, attitudes, engagement and self-reported behaviors of the social tenants, will be assessed both pre- and post-implementation of the serious game. The project will investigate whether a serious game integrated with the energy metering system of the home could encourage behavior change in the residential sector. We envision that, should the project indicate our approach to provide tangible benefits, the serious game could be distributed freely to energy customers by energy providers in the form of a free to download PC/laptop, tablet or smartphone application, as part of the European Smart Meter roll-out.


*When Boston's WBZ began to build a wall of Hall of Fame plaques outside its front door in 2007, there was never a moment of doubt about who'd be the first inductee. Gary LaPierre had just retired after a remarkable run of more than 40 years as WBZ's morning news voice.
Along the way, he served as more than just the indelible voice of nearly a hundred thousand newscasts, thousands of snow day school closures and countless election nights and Marathon days. Behind the scenes, he was the conscience of the newsroom, teaching generations of newspeople how to write and deliver the news crisply, clearly and fairly.
By 1964, he was back at WBZ as a reporter, his deep voice hiding the fact that he was just 22 years old. One of his first assignments was covering the Beatles' arrival in town. By 1966, he was anchoring the newscasts during Carl deSuze's morning show, and the rest, pretty much, was history: his was the voice that told Bostonians about RFK and MLK and Chappaquiddick, that man had landed on the Moon, that interviewed president after president. He covered Princess Diana's funeral from London and held things together on the air on the morning of September 11, 2001.
Gary's voice was hardly absent from WBZ after retirement; freed at last to do commercials, he used his home studio to voice testimonials for advertisers and promotional pieces for the station and even returned as a guest fill-in anchor in 2010 after his successor, Ed Walsh, departed.
In retirement, Gary and his wife, Peg, split their time between Florida and Ipswich, enjoying the company of children and grandchildren. Gary was diagnosed with leukemia late last year; his family was with him at home in Ipswich last Monday when he died. He was 76.
A funeral was held on Friday, and while we were unable to get to Boston, we're told that it was full of alumni from throughout Gary's WBZ career, and that his colleague Carl Stevens delivered a heartfelt eulogy.
didn't attend Grahm Junior College. It was The Cambridge School of Broadcasting.
It was located on Boylston Street in Copley Square across from the Boston Library. Mr.
Grahm was the school director. Gary was in the class ahead of me.I was there in 63-64. The school became Grahm a few years when Grahm bought the school & moved it to Kenmore Square.
Also, I thing BZ hired Gary after the great work he did for them covering the murder of a young woman in New Hampshire & subsequent trial while working for WHAV. I remember listening to his daily reports. Gary was a superb person. And what makes him even greater is the fact that he was from Western Massachusetts.
Thanks for the correction, Mike! I'll update the column.

Essay on Will Artificial Intelligence Surpass Human Intelligence?
Βρίσκεστε: Αρχική / Essay on Will Artificial Intelligence Surpass Human Intelligence?
Intelligence describes the ability to explanation, understand, produce and obtain expertise. Artificial intelligence and human intelligence have created a central focus in which numerous parties discussion on which a person is more vital as opposed to other. Synthetic intelligence is predicated to the dynamic of self-replicating, redesigning and promptly producing stored information. This has created artificial intelligence choose a central level in human life. The intelligence has proved some extent of top likely in building perform easier. Despite the point that artificial intelligence has grown to be rampant on a world wide phenomenon, I think human intelligence is still far more detailed and strong. Desktops do what human beings have programmed them to try and do. This helps make them not with the ability to consider over and above these codes. As a result, artificial intelligence cannot surpass human intelligence. These systems are coded with saved data, running to the algorithm of the running units. This makes human intelligence the resource of artificial intelligence. This simply just signifies that artificial intelligence operates on saved information and facts input by way of human intelligence (Barrat, 2013). This surrounds the essential fundamental truth that, on the other hand how highly developed the artificial intelligence is, it is always dependant on good admission essays for college human intelligence. This would make human beings smarter to invent far more refined devices which can conveniently make operate simpler. Artificial intelligence is definitely an improved and state-of-the-art edition of human intelligence. This tends to make it very tricky for machines for being smarter than the human intellect. The unreal intelligence are unable to understand these levels possessed by human brains. This can make Human intelligence far more sophisticated and makes sure the implementation process on the current mechanisms (Barrat, 2013). As an example, artificial intelligence is bewildered and complex. A gadget like a calculator does 1000s of sums as compared with a standard human being. This totally isn't going to indicate that synthetic intelligence is best than human intelligence. The aspect of synthetic intelligence in possessing the opportunity to clear up intricate mathematical problems isn't going to promise it starting to be smarter than human intelligence. Research by Barrat (2013) supports that human intelligence helps men and women program and enter facts into personal computers. This can make artificial intelligence very easily impacted into pcs. Human intelligence and its DNA processing energy are a lot quicker compared to artificial pc courses. For this reason, this would make it far more potent and flexible when compared to computer systems synthetic intelligence. On top of that, no computer system codes can gain that adaptability pattern devoid of the human intelligence regulate. About this, human intelligence gets to be a central nervous technique that controls the factitious intelligence. Human intelligence allows persons to believe and cause correctly. When compared to synthetic intelligence, personal computers only function on the stored facts managed by human beings. This further ensures the purpose that artificial intelligence is inferior to human intelligence (Michael 2008). Inspite of the point that synthetic intelligence aids human beings by storing and retrieving details, human considering capacity nonetheless surpasses this intelligence. Based on these facets, it's factual that the synthetic intelligence in personal computers makes sure they regurgitate the data impacted by human intelligence. Consequently, the artwork of artificial intelligence isn't going to make computer systems mindful when compared to human beings. Human intelligence enables individuals to gather data and make ethically and morally correct conclusions. Furthermore, desktops would under no circumstances be far more artistic when compared to human beings. This only demonstrates that without the need of human beings, computers would not be having the synthetic intelligence impacted on them.

Cryptocurrencies and ICOs – 2018 and 2019
Cryptocurrencies and ICOs started well in 2018. In the second half of the year their decline has accelerated as the story of Bitcoin in 2018 shows. From a high of almost US$17000 per Bitcoin, the low in December was almost 80% lower. This is replicated across most other cryptocurrencies and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs).
An integral part of what happened in 2018 was the steady drip, drip, drip of regulatory condemnation or suspicion of cryptocurrencies and ICOs, though not so much about the blockchain or digital ledger technologies underpinning these. Perhaps the most damning was a report from the Attorney General of New York. But other authorities and regulators have their concerns, including the Bank for International Settlements, the EU's ESMA and multiple others.
Not all is bleak
Yet not all is bleak. The Swiss FINMA regulator issued ICO guidelines in early 2018. In late December Switzerland's Federal Council published a report covering distributed ledger technology which offered the view that existing rules were well suited for blockchain adoption, though improvements could be introduced.
From the Enterprise Times viewpoint, unless the specific circumstance involves financial settlement, 2019 will likely continue in the vein of 2018's general suspicion of cryptocurrencies and ICOs. Put simply these do not yet have the imprimatur of respectability.
Respectability may have to wait for the first Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). The first of these is unlikely to arrive in 2019. 2020 or 2021 would seem more probable, if at all. If or when that first CBDC does happen it will steal much of the non-central bank cryptocurrency steam, and probably render ICOs largely irrelevant. This would be good for all but those who have expected or are expecting to cream off a fortune via private ICOs.
Might Facebook play?
One other possibility to watch out for in 2019? Will Facebook launch, possibly in India, its own US$-backed cryptocurrency? Given all that Facebook has endured in 2018 one might think this a step too far.
Except that monetizing Whatsapp, with an alleged 200M+ users on the subcontinent, via a payments transfer electronic currency might be too much for a wounded Facebook to resist.
Enterprise Times: what does this mean
For those hoping cryptocurrencis and ICOs will stage a come-back in 2019 the outlook does not seem promising. One possible exception, which would be good for few, was if a global recession saw 'flight into cryptocurrencies' as the ultimate hedge. but this would be risking much.
As for Enterprise Times, it will keep half a eye out on cryptocurrencies and ICOs. There are likely to be more significant developments, for enterprises, in blockchain in 2019. That is where our focus will remain.

Not sure if you still care but because I ran into the same issue and who knows it might help someone else out. The solution is to use gradlew (which is provided with the github projects) since you're on Windows (I don't think this applies on Linux or Mac but don't quote me on this). So in simple terms: git clone <project> cd <projectname> gradlew setupDecompWorkspace (depending on your IDE) gradlew eclipse gradlew genIntellijRuns then open with your favorite IDE if you already opened it with an IDE you might need to refresh cashes (in IntelliJ: File > Invalidate Caches / Restart) Once your code is ready for compilation you just gotta run gradlew build (and if you have problem run gradlew clean and then try again).

14 APRIL 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Women take part in a community fight on Silom Road on April 14, 2013 in Bangkok, Thailand. The Songkran festival is celebrated in Thailand as the traditional New Year's Day from 13 to 15 April. The throwing of water originated as a way to pay respect to people and is meant as a symbol of washing all of the bad away. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ

A teenage spy for the New York Police Department says he was under orders to "create and capture" terrorist suspects by befriending fellow Muslims and "baiting" them with talk about jihad.
A teenage spy for the New York Police Department says he was under orders to "create and capture" terrorist suspects by befriending fellow Muslims and "baiting" them with talk about jihad. Shamiur Rahman tells Adam Goldman and Matt Apuzzo of the Associated Press that he earned as much as $1,000 a month by surveilling mosques and Islamic study groups, taking pictures and collecting names of innocent people. The 19-year-old was born in Queens to Bengali parents and said he was recruited from jail after a series of minor drug arrests.
Rahman claims he became one of the NYPD's "mosque crawlers"—informants who move around the tri-state area sitting in on lectures to record what local imams say in sermons and keeping of track of who is in attendance He says he took photographs of sign-in sheets to gather names and shared phone numbers of those he met with the police. He was encouraged to talk to other Muslims about things like "jihad," "terrorism" and "revolution" and report back about the reactions.
However, Rahman says he also inflated his "intelligence" to impress his handlers and earn more money. He would intentionally take comments that were made to him out of context, saying that was all part of "playing the game."
New York's police force has been heavily criticized for its aggressive surveillance of local Muslims, even traveling outside of the city to spy on mosques and other Islamic communities without cause. And while city officials brag that they have stopped more than a dozen planned terrorist attacks on the city, that figure has been questioned by those who argue that many of those "plots" were ill-conceived, abandoned, never seriously pursued, or were actually suggested and planned by law enforcement agents looking to entrap suspects. Just last week, a man was arrested for trying to blow up the Federal Reserve Bank in lower Manhattan, using a fake bomb provided to him by the FBI, in a strategy that some consider entrapment.

Q: Combinatorics Issue with Long Expression So I have this strange issue that I'm not sure how to resolve. If x, y, and z are randomly chosen integers from a set {1, 2, 3... 2016} and I need the probability that $6z - 3yz + xyz - 4xy + 8x + 12y - 2xz$ is divisible by seven. This should be written in a fractional form. How should I go about this? Thank you!

A: Hint: $2016 = 288 \times 7$.
Hint: $6z - 3yz + xyz - 4xy + 8x + 12y - 2xz = (x-  3)(y-  2 )(z-  4 ) + 24$.

 Fix $y-2, z-4$.
 If either of these $ \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$, then there are no solutions for $x$.
 If they are both non-zero, then there are 288 solutions in $x$. (Do you see why?)

Hence, the probability is $288 \times ( 6 \times 288) \times ( 6 \times 288) / 2016^3 = \frac{36}{343}$

Faces of Fairfax City: Zinnia Aesthetics & Anti-Aging Clinic
What is a vampire facial, and do you need or want it? It sounds a little terrifying, but it's the latest technology performed by dermatologists and anti-aging physicians to rejuvenate your complexion. It uses PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy to make a platelet-rich serum out of your own blood, which is then applied to your skin using microneedling. It's considered safer than dermal injections because it uses your own cells. PRP is also used to treat muscle injuries, arthritis-related pain, and torn tendons. It's even used to treat hair loss and sexual dysfunctions.
At Zinnia Aesthetics & Anti-Aging Clinic, Dr. Anteneh Roba successfully uses PRP injections to treat all the aforementioned conditions. In addition, he offers other therapies and treatments for cosmetic and anti-aging concerns, weight management, body sculpting, regenerative medicine, and sexual health issues.

We need 300 people to attend the April 17 meeting!
Wednesday, April 17 at 9:30 a.m.
On April 17th the Lee County Commissioners will decide whether to adopt amendments to the County's Comprehensive Plan that will eliminate the current controls on lime rock mining in Lee County, allowing expansion of mining–the most destructive (and non-reversible) land use—which threatens our water supply, water quality, and quality of life.
At a time when the entire region is concerned about water quality, water supply and degradation of wetlands, this proposal goes in the wrong direction.
It's important for the citizens throughout Lee County to speak out against this disastrous proposal before it is too late.
Without any public workshops and under the guise of "streamlining" County Staff is proposing to deregulate lime rock mining in the DRGR (Density Reduction/Water Resource areas) by eliminating both the Alico Road Corridor mine location standard and the requirement that new mines are to be allowed on a basis of clear necessity following a scientifically based supply and demand analysis.
Bottom-line: The amendments will allow lime rock mining anywhere and at any time, regardless of real need.
The impacts of limerock mining are greater than almost any other use, including junkyards and sanitary landfills. These impacts, which will continue for decades, include blasting, dust, noise, and traffic in addition to severe impacts on groundwater and destruction of other natural resources.
If these Comp Plan amendments are approved, every community in Lee County will be impacted—the only issue is to what direct or indirect degree. Upstream water quality and land resource conservation efforts will be weakened, creating more water pollution pressures on our downstream estuaries, with negative impacts on our tourism and hospitality industry, and quality of life.
This April 17th hearing is the last (and only) opportunity for the public to persuade the County Commissioners that this proposal is not in the best interests of its citizens and is strongly opposed by the voters.
Estero stands at a critical crossroads in land use planning. The fate of this proposal will significantly affect the lives of current residents and of future generations.
Attending the BOCC meeting is the single most important impact you can have on this issue.
The ECCL believes the amendments should not be approved by the Lee County Board of Commissioners on April 17.
Attending the meeting is significantly more impactful, but if you absolutely cannot attend, please customize this message and send it to the Commissioners.

i love engagement sessions! they are such a fun time to get to know the bride and groom and understand their personalities. it's always a little akward meeting someone for the first time, when you've talked to them on the phone, emailed, text, and yet never seen their face. but these two put me at ease right away. they are the epitome of fun and relaxed. and it shows in their images: hello beautiful! can you believe these eyes! wow!
thanks for humoring me by putting your feet in the water guys! just as i suspected, you can't even tell how nasty the water was. it just looks like you too are relaxing, cooling off and enjoying each other's company!


The statement from the UK government came as part of a first batch of contingency planning papers for a potential 'no deal Brexit' that were released yesterday, in a paper called Banking, insurance and other financial services if there is no Brexit deal.
The wording referring to bank accounts is mixed in with references to potential problems with pay-outs from UK-based insurance policies and certain kinds of private pension annuity. This aspect is not new - Connexion initially covered it in November last year after the chairwoman of the UK Parliament's Treasury Select Committee, Nicky Morgan, wrote to the Chancellor of the Exchequer about "the possibility that UK providers may not be legally able to pay out pensions or insurance contracts to citizens in the EU – including UK expats... a stark example of the consequences of a cliff-edge Brexit".
The problem arises due to the UK's loss of so-called financial passporting rights if it leaves the EU and no agreement is made replacing them. If there is a withdrawal agreement between the UK and EU this will allow a transition period to the end of 2020 to potentially resolve such matters; this would not apply of there is 'no deal'.
As we reported last month there have since been moves on the UK side to reassure citizens of other EU states living in the UK that they will be able to receive their private pensions from outside the UK after Brexit, however there has so far been no guarantee from the EU or EU states that the same applies to British expatriates receiving payments from the UK (we are seeking clarification from the French Finance Ministry with regard to French residents with UK private pensions and insurance policies).
Experts previously told Connexion that a potential solution after Brexit, if French residents are affected, would be to have private pensions or insurance pay-outs from UK providers paid into a UK bank account for transferral to a French one. It is an EU-wide right to be able to open a basic bank account in an EU state outside the one in which you live and this currently applies to residents of France who want to open a UK account.
However due to the UK leaving the EU's SEPA banking zone, which makes transfers between EU states similar in cost and speed to domestic ones, transfers between the UK and France would be likely to take longer and cost more after Brexit. This is referred to in the UK's banking paper but was predictable (we mention it in our helpguide to Brexit and Britons in France). The UK's paper also notes that using credit cards between the UK and EU is likely to cost more, such as if using a British card to make purchases in France.
More unexpectedly, the paper raises concerns over bank accounts themselves linked to the lost passporting rights. Sources told Connexion it would be highly unlikely that expatriates would be forced to close their UK bank accounts but it is possible that making use of them, including for new deposits, could, in ways that are unclear, become more difficult. The UK's paper implies that the problems could be eased by action on the side of the EU.
We will be following this up in our September edition, on sale at the end of next week.

Weather is the temporary state of the atmosphere, while climate refers to the average of the weather conditions over a longer period of time.
Weather changes quickly, may be within a day or week, but climate changes in imperceptivity and may be noted after 50, 100 years, or even more.
The climate of India has distinct regional variations discernible by the pattern of winds, temperature, and rainfall; further, also in the form of rhythm of seasons and the degree of wetness or dryness.
Factors Influencing Climate
Major factors that determine the climate of India are −
The Himalayan Mountains
Distribution of land and water
Distance from the sea
During the winter, north of the Himalayas develops a high pressure center.
This high pressure center gives rise to the flow of air at the low level from the north towards the Indian subcontinent (i.e. south of the mountain range).
All of Western and Central Asia remains under the influence of westerly winds (known as Jet Stream) along the altitude of 9-13 km from west to east. Jet streams are located about five to nine miles above Earth's surface in the mid to upper troposphere — the layer of Earth's atmosphere where we live and breathe. Airplanes also fly in the mid to upper troposphere.
These winds blow across the Asian continent at the latitudes, north of the Himalayas, roughly parallel to the Tibetan highlands.
However, Tibetan highlands act as a barrier in the path of these jet streams, as a result of this, the jet streams get bifurcated into two branches.
One branch is located to the south of the Himalayas, while the second branch is positioned to the north of Tibetan Plateau.
The western cyclonic disturbances, which enter the Indian subcontinent from the west and the northwest during the winter months, originate over the Mediterranean Sea and are brought into India by the westerly jet stream.
During the Summer, the wind circulation over the subcontinent undergoes a complete reversal at both, the lower as well as at the upper levels.
By the middle of July, the low pressure belt nearer the surface [termed as Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)] moves northwards, roughly parallel to the Himalayas between 20∘N20∘N and 25∘N25∘N (as shown in the image given below).
The ITCZ is a zone of low pressure, attracts inflow of winds from different directions.
With the apparent northward movement of the Sun towards the Tropic of Cancer in March, temperatures start rising in north India, which is the sign of advent of Summer season.
April, May, and June are the months of summer in north India.
In the heart of the ITCZ in the northwest, the dry and hot winds known as Loo, blow in the afternoon, and very often, they continue to well into midnight.
Towards the end of the summer, there are pre-monsoon showers, which are a common phenomenon in Kerala and coastal areas of Karnataka. This phenomenon is locally known as mango showers, as it helps in the early ripening of mangoes.
The maritime tropical air mass (mT) from the southern hemisphere crosses the equator and rushes towards the low pressure area; in general, the southwesterly direction.
This moist air current causing rainfall in India is popularly known as the southwest monsoon.
Simultaneously, an easterly jet stream flows over the southern part of the Peninsula in June with a maximum speed of 90 km per hour.
The easterly jet stream steers the tropical depressions into India and these depressions play a significant role in determining the distribution of monsoon rainfall over the Indian subcontinent.
The tracks of these depressions are the areas of the highest rainfall in India.
The southwest monsoon, which is a continuation of the southeast trades, get deflected towards the Indian subcontinent after crossing the Equator.
The easterly jet stream is held responsible for the burst of the monsoon in India.
The southwest monsoon sets first over the Kerala coast by 1st1st of June and then moves swiftly to reach Mumbai and Kolkata between 10th10th and 13th13thJune. Further, by mid-July, southwest monsoon engulfs the entire subcontinent.
Southwest monsoon gets divided into two branches − the Arabian Sea, causing rain in western coast of India and the Bay of Bengal branch, causing rain in eastern coast to India.
Generally, the cold weather season sets in by mid-November in northern India.
However, the Peninsular region of India does not have any well-defined cold weather season.
There is hardly any seasonal change in the distribution pattern of the temperature in coastal areas because of the moderating influence of the sea and the proximity to the equator.
Winter monsoons do not cause rainfall, as they move from land to the sea. Hence, primarily, they have little humidity; and secondly, due to anticyclonic circulation on land, the possibility of rainfall from them reduces.
However, in northwestern India, some weak temperate cyclones coming from the Mediterranean Sea (with little moisture) cause rainfall in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and western Uttar Pradesh.
On the other hand, during October and November, northeast monsoon while crossing over the Bay of Bengal, picks up moisture and causes torrential rainfall over the Tamil Nadu coast, southern Andhra Pradesh, southeast Karnataka, and southeast Kerala.
The shower causing coffee flowers blossom in Kerala and nearby areas is known as blossom shower.
Nor Westers are the dreaded evening thunderstorms in Bengal and Assam.
During the south-west monsoon, the period after having rains for a few days, if rain fails to occur for one or more weeks, it is known as break in the monsoon.
The notorious nature of Nor Westers can be understood from the local nomenclature of Kalbaisakhi, meaning a calamity of the month of Baisakh.
In Assam, Nor Westers are known as Bardoli Chheerha.
Hot, dry, and oppressing winds blowing in the Northern plains from Punjab to Bihar are known as Loo.
The rain in the southwest monsoon season begins rather abruptly.
Sudden onset of the moisture-laden winds associated with violent thunder and lightning, is often termed as the "break" or "burst" of the monsoon.
Tamil Nadu coast remains dry during the monsoon season because it is situated parallel to the Bay of Bengal branch of southwest monsoon.
The monsoon rainfall has a declining trend with increasing distance from the sea. For example, Kolkata receives 119 cm, Patna 105 cm, Allahabad 76 cm, and Delhi 56 cm.
The months of October and November are known as retreating monsoonsseason.
The advent of south-west monsoon is known as advancing monsoon.
As the south-west monsoon passes over the ocean surface (Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Bay of Bengal) it picks up moisture and causes rainfall in India.
Windward side of Western Ghats receives heavy rainfall (more than 250 cm); however, as the distance increases from the sea, the amount and intensity of rainfall start decreasing.
The Bay of Bengal branch of monsoon advances towards the eastern part of India and causes heavy rainfall. North-east India receives heavy rainfall during the monsoon season.
Cherapunji and Mawsynram (two places of Meghalaya) are world's wettest place.
Though there are great spatial variations in India; the average annual rainfall of India is 125 cm.
The whole of India has a monsoon type of climate, but because of the regional variations, there are various types of climate in India.
Koeppen's Climate Classification
Koeppen, based on his scheme of Climatic classification on monthly values of temperature and precipitation, identified five major climatic types. They are −
Tropical climates
Dry climates
Warm temperate climates
Cool temperate climates
Ice climates
However, the following map (shown below) illustrates the major climatic types of India as classified by Koeppen.
Key Note:
Sea surface temperature (SST) is routinely used for predicting whether the total amount of rainfall that India receives during the monsoon season will be less or more than the long-term mean of 887.5 mm.
Ocean Mean Temperature (OMT) – which is analysed by measuring the ocean thermal energy during the January-March period – can better predict Indian summer monsoon than the SST.
The SST is restricted to a few millimetres of the top ocean layer and is largely influenced by strong winds, evaporation, or thick clouds. Also, it does not reflect the thermal energy available in the upper ocean.
In contrast, OMT, which is measured up to a depth of 26-degree C isotherm, is more stable and consistent, and the spatial spread is also less. The 26-degree C isotherm is seen at depths varying from 50–100 metres.

María Elena Salinas 'The Real Story' Gets Season 2 Following Univision Exit
Latin Times | Aug 07 2017, 11:11PM EDT
María Elena Salinas anchored Univision News for more than 35 years. Getty Images
María Elena Salinas announced to Noticiero Univision viewers last week that she was leaving the Spanish-language network. No last day was announced, but she did mention that she would stay on until the end of the year. Many wondered who was going to replace her at the newscast or what she was going to be up to next. The good news is that Salinas will not be off-air for a long time as her show on Investigation Discovery was picked up for a second season.
"Maria Elena's passionate investigative reporting in 'The Real Story', which viewers see especially in cases that interest and affect America's vast Latino community, has been an important addition to ID's repertoire of original newsmagazines," said Henry Schleiff, Group President, Investigation Discovery, Destination America and American Heroes Channel. "As Maria Elena looks ahead to the next chapter in her career, we are thrilled that she'll continue to have a home in primetime on ID."
Last week, at the end of the Noticiero Univision broadcast María Elena took time to tell viewers she was leaving Univision.
"It's time to change paths and start a new phase in my career," she told viewers. "I will dedicate myself to being an independent journalist, producer, among other things. I take with me an abundance of experience of more than three decades, having shared with a wonderful group of journalists of whom I've learned a lot from both personally and professionally, but above all the honor of having had the opportunity of getting to your homes every day trying to make sense of this complex world that we live in."
Salinas made sure to clarify that she was not fired from the Spanish-language network and she is leaving to pursue other projects. "They have not fired me, I haven't quit, I am not retiring, and I am not going somewhere else to do the same thing I'm doing here. Thank Daniel Coronel, Univision President, his efforts in trying to convince me to renew my contract and to stay, but like I always say to young people, 'fight for your dreams, never give up'. Now it's time for me to practice what I preach and to do things that I have always dreamt of doing."
But when is María Elena Salinas' last show on Univision? She said: "This is not a goodbye, it's only an announcement. I will be here until the end of the year. I still have many news stories to present on Noticias Univision, for now goodnight and see you soon."
Changes at Univision were imminent in the news department. Earlier this year it was rumored that Jorge Ramos had been fired from the network. According to Rafael Martinez of "Formula Espectacular," the news anchor was to exit his post after Donald Trump took office. The Mexican-born journalist had a strong altercation with Trump while he was running for office. It was rumored that Enrique Acevedo, who currently hosts the late-night edition of the Univision newscast, would take his place. Ramos also hosts a weekend political show called "Al Punto" and fronts another news show on Fusion, Univision's cable news network.

That's because there are two main problems with the language when creating large Web applications.
In fact most developers will probably never use asm.js directly at all. More likely they would use C or C++ (or take existing C or C++ applications) and then compile the code into asm.js using the Emscripten transcompiler.
It's an ambitious goal, so what is Dart? It's an open source programming language that's been designed with the application of large scale applications and high performance in mind. In fact calling Dart a language may be a misnomer, because a validator and various other development tools are all bundled in Dart.
As yet there are no plans for any other browsers beyond Google's to support Dart directly, so the chances of it becoming the lingua franca of the Web appear slim. But Buckett maintains that the twin advantages of performance and ease of large scale development -- plus the ecosystem of Dart tools that are available -- may mean it proliferates.
