Chapter Seventy Three: In Which Is A Tale Of Death, Disease, Disaster, and Prophecies, Again.
Back then, when historians were documenting the Kingdom War, they racked up the story to make it seem like legends of old. They portrayed the Glacier Kingdom chief to be bold, brave, heroic, and maybe there were some magical powers mixed in.
He was the one who surrendered, in the end.
But of course the historians from that kingdom didn't want to write that. So they twisted the truth just a little.
Just a little.
So that's the present history that stands today. Two foes, along with their allies, fought in a battle that shook the lands. One came out the victor, but the matter of who is debated to this day. Sometimes it is through more wars.
One thing is clear. None got what they wanted, in the end. Such is the truth of a war.
Now, countless years later, it happens again. And this time, the things the war was fought to gain is already lost.
And the chief of what used to be the Glacier Kingdom sat in his room. No boldness or bravery. No magic powers to save the day. Maybe there was his daughter nervously pacing in the hallways, but nothing else. Just a certain emptiness. Something wasn't there that should have. It bothered the chief greatly. But there was nothing that could be done.
The war didn't last very long. Not nearly as long as the previous. Everything fell apart as soon as it began. There was really no meaning to it all anyways. Petty. All so petty.
How would the historians recount all this? Maybe as the story of the mysterious sorceror who stole the royal children and cursed all the land. The man who caused the people to turn against each other in a war. Who made the 'crazy' disease that ravaged the forest. Who caused Flake to die, who caused Chief Ripple to go missing, who incited a rebellion in the Breeze Kingdom… all on that one person.
And sure, some of that may be the result of that what-his-name kidnapper guy, but it started much deeper.
Deeper.
"Hey, Flint, the other boy is leaving," Windy said to Flint, peeking into his room from the doorway. He was huddling in the far corner, where it was shrouded in darkness, poring over a large book.
"Hello?" Windy squinted and stepped in the small place, kicking dust from the floor. "This place is so old. And dark. And dusty. When was the last time you made renovations?" Her voice sent small echoes throughout the room.
Flint didn't answer. He merely turned the page of the book he was reading and continued looking over it. The torches flickered, casting light for a brief moment on the pile of thick books next to him. With the dim light and the tattered books and the lingering shadows, the whole place looked very ghostly. Too ghostly. Especially with Flint not responding. Windy didn't really want to try and talk to him anymore. He would figure out the other boy was gone eventually.
Slowly, she took small steps out to the hallway. The whole castle seemed to have gone eerily quiet- or was it just her? There was a sense of calm in the silence, but it also felt creepy and suspenseful. Something was going to happen. Something big. It was like the eye of a hurricane: the center of calm, but disaster coming straight ahead-
"Windy, what are you doing in my room?" asked Flint, finally looking up from his book.
She jumped and turned to face him, suddenly feeling the urge to scream. Slowly, she tried to calm down.
"Flint… actually, I forgot what I was going to tell you about, but I'm sure you'll find out soon. I came in a while ago, actually, but you were so engrossed in that little book that apparently my entrance went overlooked," Windy said, trying to sound as cavalier as possible. "I mean, you would have thought someone coming into this little hovel of yours would at least-"
"Okay, okay, I get it," Flint said. "You want to know what I'm doing."
"Well… yes. Maybe."
"Look, I'm undertaking an investigation of the utmost importance," he explained. "You see, this is a long forgotten volume of Brindle's Legends and History , which was once chased out of local booksellers due to 'unmistakable discrepancies' and 'inaccurate retellings'. And they were mostly right: this does seem to be mostly filled of bogus, but it was the story of the Kingdom War that caught my eye. So-"
"Okay, but what does that have to do with now?" Windy interrupted. "Hate to tell you, but the war is practically already won. Chief Frost has been absent from reality for a while now, and yesterday Chief Ripple seemed to have gone somewhere too. What we need to focus on is getting the Breeze Kingdom back-"
"But there, in a chapter that has nothing to do with prophecies, I found a thing about prophecies-"
"-my kingdom is a vital point of trade-"
"-the one that Flake and Snow was a part of I think-"
"-and those rebellion people are going to-"
"-I need to tell Jack, I think he needs to know-"
"Jack!" Windy suddenly remembered. "Oh, right, that's his name. That's who I was coming to tell you about. He's leaving. About now, I think. He told me to tell you before he went, so either he's still waiting for you or he went on his own."
Flint shot up from his seated position, knocking the book out of his lap. "Wait, I need to tell him about the prophecy thing-"
"What prophecy thing? You didn't tell my anything about that! Why does only he get to know?" Windy exclaimed.
Flint ignored her, running out of the room moving faster than he ever had in his life.
"Why does he keep on ignoring me?" Windy muttered.
It had been a long time since the Chief Frost went on his trip to the Crumbling Frozen Peak. Maybe he should have. Maybe with another Kingdom War, the sock puppet would regain fortune telling powers again. Maybe.
He didn't feel like it. He never felt like anything, now.
The war was at a standby, the Coral, Breeze, and Forest lands were all in chaos. The entirety of the Silver Snake Kingdom was shrouded in a fog of thoughts and and worries whispered under a cool layer of calm and nonchalance. It was disturbing, the quiet. Maybe even more disturbing that chaos.
At least, that's what Jack thought when he descended deeper into the heart of the city. Everything seemed still, and at peace, but at the same time not. There was a sense of restlessness buried under the calm smiles of everyone he passed by, which wasn't a lot.
The grand palace was over the ledge, far up high, looking down on the city. Half of it was covered in clouds. Jack wondered where Rose and Snow were doing in there. Were they happy? Probably not.
He suddenly wished to be at the Flame Kingdom with Flint and Windy. They seemed to make him feel more cheery about everything. Here, he would have to be the happy one, and who knows whether the happiness would be appreciated. This place seemed to echo of sadness all around.
By the time Jack reached the door of the castle, the sky was pitch-black with the coming of a cold winter night.

Why KIK Can't Join Groups ? A Guide 2023
Kik is a popular messaging app that has become the go-to choice for many users due to its simplicity and user-friendly interface. However, recently, some users have encountered an issue where they are unable to join certain groups on the app. This can be an incredibly frustrating problem, as it prevents users from fully utilizing the features of the app.
In this blog post, we will take a look at this problem, discuss potential causes, and provide possible solutions. We will also explore what actions users can take if they still cannot join a group after trying all of the proposed solutions. By the end of this blog post, you should have a better understanding of how to join groups on Kik and have the tools to help solve this issue.
1. Check if you meet the group's criteria
Before trying to join a group on Kik, you should first check to make sure you meet the group's criteria. Some groups have restrictions on age or gender, while others may have specific rules about content or conversations. Be sure to read the group description carefully before attempting to join. If you don't meet the criteria, you won't be allowed to join and may be blocked from trying to join again.
2. Ensure you have a valid Kik account
Before you can join a group chat on Kik, you'll need to make sure you have a valid account. To do this, open the Kik app and make sure you're logged in. If you don't have an account, you can create one by tapping "Sign Up" on the login screen and following the on-screen instructions.
Once you're logged in, make sure to add some friends and engage in conversations with them to make sure your account is in good standing. When you're ready to join a group, you'll be able to do so with no issues.
3. Ensure you are using the latest version of the app
One of the most common issues with Kik is that users cannot join groups. If you are having this problem, the first thing you should do is make sure you are using the latest version of the app. Updates to the app can often fix bugs and other issues, so this is the best place to start when troubleshooting.
To do this, head to your app store and check for any available updates. Once you have updated the app, try joining a group again. If you are still having issues, try deleting and reinstalling the app before moving on to other solutions.
4. Check if the group has reached its maximum capacity
When you're trying to join a group in Kik, one of the first things you should do is check if the group has reached its maximum capacity. Each group on Kik can hold up to 100 members.
If the group is already at its full capacity, you won't be able to join it. Additionally, you won't be able to join a group if the group's administrator has disabled joining requests. To check if the group has reached its maximum capacity, look at the group's members list. If it already has 100 members, you won't be able to join it.
5. Reach out to the group's creator for access.
If you've tried the first four steps and still can't join a group, don't despair. The fifth and final step to join a Kik group is to reach out to the group's creator. Depending on the group's privacy settings, the creator may need to approve your request to join.
If you can't find the group's creator, you can always ask someone in the group who seems to be familiar with the group's inner workings. Alternatively, you can just post a message in the group saying something like "Can someone help me join?" and see if someone responds.
In conclusion, Kik's inability to join groups has been a major source of frustration for many users. For those seeking group chat functionality, there are now other options on the market. However, if you're a fan of Kik's unique features, it's important to keep up with the latest news to see if the app has made progress on this front. Alternatively, you can switch to one of the many other messaging apps that offer group chat options.

Nate came out and was awesome. We did so many things this trip but the Living Ocean dive topped them all. Thanks for the awesome experience, we will never forget it!
This was a bucket list thing I've wanted to do for years. I was not disappointed. Our instructor was awesome! He explained everything very well and was very patient with us in the water. It was an absolutely amazing experience!!
This was our first time scuba diving and our instructor was incredible! He made us feel very safe and helped us feel comfortable with the gear. He also took time to make sure we were ready and safe to go under. We saw the most beautiful fish and wild life with him. He also took fantastic pictures for us and even uploaded them to our Google account!..its a five star in my book!
Our instructor Nate was very patient, and took us to 15-20 feet on the shore dive. We got to see some awesome things, including an eel, the Hawaiian state fish (the Humuhumunukunukuapua`a, which I can't say haha), and a large school of fish that followed us around.
It was a great experience, and has motivated us to go get our certification!
I have been to Hanauma Bay many times over the years, and often felt frustrated that I was seeing only part of its beauty.
Scuba diving was the perfect way to experience the magic and wonder of the bay. I saw so many different species of fish, that I couldn't even recall how many.
Nate, our instructor was excellent. He gave very thorough instruction, and guided us perfectly. I felt so safe, and was able to just relax and enjoy the under water world. My favourite moment was spying the resident eel in his hides hole under a rock.
We came to dive for the first time after certification and had a wonderful experience. Nate, our dive sherpa, was very helpful and helped us relax and have fun. We saw a wide variety of fish.
My experience was awesome! My scuba instructor was amazing and very caring! It was our first time scuba diving and I was a little worried but my husband wanted to do it! Nate made us feel very safe and I would defiantly recommend him to anyone! He had a lot of experience and made it so much fun!
We had a great time scuba diving Hanama Bay with our instructor Nathan. He picked us up at the hotel on time. We were able to do some of the training during the drive which meant more time for us at the bay. Nathan's upbeat personality really added to the experience.
One of the best activities we did! Still thinking about it. Our instructor Nate was a lot of fun. We had a blast and would highly recommend it!!
This was a great time and experience. Nate our guide was very professional, did a great job and ensured every need was attended to. We will defiantly book again next time we are in Hawaii.
Had the best time ever. If I had more time would have done it again. Would do everytime.


"Everybody Breaks in the End, Bro. It's Biology"
Katherine Bigelow's new film Zero Dark Thirty opens with a completely black screen. It is 9/11 and we can hear a mishmash of calls placed to the emergency services by people trapped in the Twin Towers. Images aren't necessary; we can all imagine. Then, we jump to 2003 and Maya (Jessica Chastain), a young CIA operative has just arrived in Pakistan on what will, for the next eight years, be a hunt for Osama Bin Laden. As she watches her colleague Dan (Jason Clarke) torture a "detainee" to try to obtain information about a man who might lead to a lead to Bin Laden, her disgust is apparent initially.
Dan and her boss (Kyle Chandler) comment on how young and green she seems, but Mrs O'Brien from The Tree of Life she is not. She is tough and driven and when torture—including waterboarding—brings her a step closer to her personal quest to find Bin Laden, she is willing, if not happy, to sanction it. When she stumbles on a link to a close associate of Bin Laden's, known only as Abu Ahmed, Maya thinks the end might be in sight, but we the audience know it isn't going to be that simple. It's also dangerous work. Maya watches friends and colleagues get hurt and killed, and she is attacked in her own car. When she arrives in Pakistan, she is wearing a very Washington black suit, and although she eventually adapts to more neutral, casual clothes and a headscarf, you also see her later on in her home, wearing a burkha with her feet up, munching on a cheese string and drinking a beer.
And Maya never wavers from her theory that Abu Ahmed will lead them to Bin Laden. "I know certainty freaks you guys out, but it's 100%," she says in a meeting with senior figures at the CIA about whether the compound they have identified is Bin Laden's hiding place. But although she has been working diligently on this case for a decade, tirelessly researching and analyzing new data, you get the impression that it really just is a very strong hunch. Based on the best data available, of course, but still a bit of a leap in the dark. It turns out that she happens to be right.
I went to see Bigelow's last film, The Hurt Locker, on a whim, tempted, I think, by a free ticket. It wasn't the kind of film I normally enjoyed, but I ended up liking it a lot. Zero Dark Thirty is gripping and very engaging. I don't like Bigelow's use of chapter titles to section the film, which I think she also used in The Hurt Locker and which I find distracting. The movie is a little too long—aren't all the Best Picture nominees this year?—but still interesting, right up until the final act, the raid on the compound in which Bin Laden was hiding, which plays out almost in real time. The film was initially going to be about the failure to find Bin Laden, but during the writing process, the events of this final act took place, which rather changed things. Jessica Chastain was wonderful, as always, as the not usually very likeable but driven, disciplined Maya. A lot of the other performances were good too, but no one else really stood out for me. Zero Dark Thirty is bold, dark, intense and often difficult to watch. It's not really the kind of film that you enjoy, but it's certainly compelling and thought-provoking.

Contracting brings home awards
Published Jan. 29, 2010
By Wayne Crenshaw
ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE, Ga. -- The Warner Robins Air Logistics Center is the winner of six Air Force Materiel Command awards for contracting.
Three of those went to units and three to individuals. Of those, three will go on to compete at the Air Force level. The others won't compete at the Air Force level because those categories exist only at the AFMC level.
Steve Zamparelli, the WR-ALC director of contracting, said it was a good showing for Robins.
"I believe the achievements of these exceptional contracting individuals and teams are reflective of our contracting workforce as a whole," he said. "They exemplify the dedicated warfighter support provided by Robins Air Force Base."
The award winners are:
Ability One Award: 78th Comptroller and Contracting Squadron. The award is for contracting units working with businesses and organizations which employ the handicapped. The unit will compete at the Air Force Level.
Outstanding Contracting Unit (Large): Logistics - 542nd Combat Sustainment Wing contracting office.
Outstanding Contracting Officer - Field Grade: Logistics - Lt. Col. James E. Boles Jr., 542nd Combat Sustainment Group contracting office.
Outstanding Contracting Civilian - GS-12 and above: Logistics - Robert N. Jones Jr., 730th Aircraft Sustainment Group contracting office.

Observation allows researchers to experience a specific aspect of social life and get a first-hand look at a trend, institution, or behaviour. Participant observation involves the researcher joining a sample of individuals without interfering with that group's normal activities in order to document their routine behaviour or observe them in a natural context. Observational research is a type of descriptive research that differs from most other forms of data gathering as in that the researcher's goal is not to manipulate the variables being observed.
While participants may or may not be aware of the researchers' presence, the researchers do not try to control variables (as in an experiment), or ask participants to respond to direct questions (as in an interview or survey based study).
Instead, the participants are simply observed in a natural setting, defined as a place in which behaviour ordinarily occurs, rather than a place that has been arranged specifically for the purpose of observing the behaviour. Unlike correlational and experimental research which use quantitative data, observational studies tend to use qualitative data.
Question. Which of the following are the advantages of observational research technique?
(a) Verification of data
(b) Flexibility
(c) Unbiased
Question. As mentioned in the above paragraph, observational research is a part of which of the following methods ofcollecting data?
(a) Personal investigation
(b) Information from correspondents
(c) Questionnaire filled by the enumerators
Question. Correlational and experimental research can only use quantitative statistical information. Choose from the options below.
Question. Which of the given below is/are true about observational research method?
(a) It is a type of descriptive in nature
(b) It is non-judgemental
(c) Rely upon the body language of the respondents

Avalanche The film is listed in Golden Raspberry Award founder John Wilson's book The Official Razzie Movie Guide as one of the 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made. The film was featured in the first season of the 2017 Mystery Science Theater 3000 revivawas one of the most expensive films ever made by New World Pictures and was not a success at the box office. The film came out at the same time as New World's Piranha. Corman says that New World thought Avalanche would be more of a success because "it was more mainstream" and had bigger stars however Piranha was the bigger hit. In hindsight, Corman says this was because Piranha was "funny and very well directed".

Tommy Stinson Never Listens to the Replacements Anymore
Katie Stratton, Getty Images
Tommy Stinson admits he rarely returns to his back catalog with the Replacements – even when he needed to practice up for a reunion.
"I'm going to be honest, it's been years since I put one of those records on," Stinson tells Rock On Philly. "No offense to anyone in the band or anything, I just haven't. I didn't even go and listen to them before we played those shows. Probably should have."
The Replacements mounted the humorously named Back By Unpopular Demand tour between 2013-15 behind frontman Paul Westerberg. Dave Minehan took over for the band's late original guitarist Bob Stinson, Tommy's brother. (Successor Slim Dunlap is still recovering from a devastating 2012 stroke.) Freese sat in for co-founding drummer Chris Mars, who last worked with the Replacements on 1990's All Shook Down. The late Steve Foley briefly filled in afterward, then worked with Tommy Stinson when the Replacements split.
Stinson had been working with Guns N' Roses since 1998 when the Replacements got back together. His only other regret seems to be that their second go-round might have lasted a little too long. "It was fun. It was exactly what it was supposed to be for a while there," he says. "We probably reached our expiration date a little earlier than we should have. It might have been a little too worn out by the end, but it was good while it lasted."
Stinson, who recently played a headlining set at XPonential Music Festival in Camden, N.J., has recorded material with a new group that he plans to release next year. He's also touring with Chip Roberts as Cowboys In the Campfire.

Movies Like The Transfiguration
Horrorific content by All Horror on October 12th, 2018 | Movies like… |
A spiritual successor to George A. Romero's Martin, The Transfiguration finds a young teen, Milo, obsessed with vampire lore as he believes himself more and more to be one of the blood sucking creatures when he meets and bonds with fellow social outcast Sophie. After the death of his mother, his brother has become distant and depressed and in their poor neighborhood without an older figure to protect him, Milo must figure out how to fend for himself, finding solace in his vampirism. Less of a standard genre film The Transfiguration finds its objective-style, slow burn scares rooted in a socio-economic allegory.

The GOP's Super Tuesday bloodbath: Dick Nixon counts the bodies
To stand up to Trump, the GOP will need someone who can take a punch and looks forward to the next one.

Bombs rain down on the city. The roads are cut off. There's no drinking water. Starving dogs scavenge from craters. Soot fills the air, and it stinks of death. From his bunker, Marco Rubio broadcasts to the boys on the front line: "The enemy's numbers continue to fall as ours go up. Victory is within reach." Then he pockets the cyanide capsule given to him by Senator McConnell, and tosses a football to let off steam.
Marco Rubio may be deep in denial pic.twitter.com/sChT8AQ5CQ
— Mashable News (@MashableNews) March 2, 2016
As I write, Trump has won six states. He'll take at least a couple more, and finish second where he loses. Cruz won Texas, where he was in danger, as well as Oklahoma. Kasich may take Vermont. Rubio finished second in Virginia and no better than third everywhere else. Minnesota, which hasn't gone for Republicans in a general election since '72, is his best and only bet.
Yes, delegates are awarded proportionally. But there's a minimum standard. Rubio, Cruz, and Kasich won't measure up in most states. To call it Rubio's failure would give him too much credit. Failure connotes competition in strength, character, or ideas; Rubio has none of those things. He's a "ditto" sheet that's been run through too many times; dull, smudged, often inscrutable.
Rubio is a sitting United States Senator who is going to lose his home state by 15-20 points. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.
— Richard M. Nixon (@dick_nixon) March 1, 2016
Rubio is the messy, embarrassing, unlamented death of Reaganism. From now on, check your wallet if someone tries selling it to you. The Whigs have more currency. Hanging tonight's loss solely on Rubio is like blaming the ventriloquist's dummy when his jaw gets termites. There couldn't be a worse outcome for McConnell, Priebus, and all the bastards who sat on their fat butts while Trump poked open wounds in every factory town from here to the Gulf. If you slip in blood this spring, blame them. Cruz isn't going anywhere. He'll pitch tents, charm snakes, and attempt to part the Red Sea. He'll tell the Holy Rollers that God made Marco weak. "We love him anyway. But I'm the one who can fight for you." Kasich smells blood. Trump is currently at 35% in Michigan, with Cruz and Rubio at 15% and Kasich at 12%. The delegate threshold is 15%, so Kasich could possibly deny Rubio delegates there, then make a stand in Ohio, where Trump leads him 31%-26%. If Kasich wins Ohio and Rubio loses Florida—where he's currently down 15-20 points—all hell will break loose. For Rubio the spectacle will be worse than a ticket for loitering.
His people told the Times today that they plan not to win a single state, as though it's natural for a brokered convention to put the nomination on weak shoulders.
It is not just the size or strength of hands but the delicacy with which they do their work. pic.twitter.com/7XgDUtViNn
Can you imagine? I suppose he thinks his big hands count for a free lunch. As for Trump, the burglar is no longer in the house. He torched it, and now he's standing at the curb watching it burn and wearing your wife's fur coat. It's a hell of a thing to accept. My God, did you see Christie when he stood behind Trump tonight? I've seen happier men go to the gas chamber.
How can Christie look his kids in the eyes?

But that's typical of Christie, I guess. Always the bridesmaid; a foot short, a minute late, the last to realize he hasn't got a hope in hell of holding office again, much less, I assume, looking his kids in the eye after selling his last decent instinct for what? It will take someone who thinks faster and further ahead than Christie to get out of this. Someone who doesn't care what others think of him. Who's lived through ten thousand fights and welcomes the next punch, and the next, because he always gets up. I don't have to tell you who.
Richard Nixon never left us. With the help of playwright Justin Sherin, he continues to speak his mind as @dick_nixon on Twitter.

In Central, the biodiversity of Peru is celebrated. Fresh supplies and an inexhaustible curiosity to discover new and interesting ingredients on your menu in the place of avant-garde Peruvian cuisine in the heart of the traditional district of Miraflores. In this space they are committed to the landscape and the values of the new generations, lightness, health, aesthetics, recreation and harmony. A future of reflection and innovation. With that imprint, Central exhibits an exquisite salon. It is a comfortable place, with rustic details and a modern decoration, where you can breathe a serene atmosphere. There you can find raw salmon, lime and ginger, crunchy coca, green olives guacamole; the escabeches of ajíes, Iberian ham and morusa de pallares; the thousand leaves of oats, lavender, figs and pine nuts; the agnolotti of mushrooms (shells, shrimp and squid and padano grana broth); or the croaker on rice with prawns and porcon. In addition, there are very good sweet options such as tiramisu kalhua, chocolate, expresso and amaretto; and tasty drinks like "Camu Camu" (vodka, coca, Grand Marnier).
Since pre-Columbian times, the ingredients have been obtained from everywhere, from the majestic heights of the Andes, to the depths of the Pacific Ocean and the region east of the Amazon.
In addition to taking inspiration from the Incas, modern Peruvian cuisine has influences from Japan, China, Italy and Spain.
The best restaurants in Lima such as Central and Maido serve some of the best dishes in the world, allowing you to taste a fantastic gastronomy full of flavor and texture.
Indisputably it is the emblematic dish of Peru. To make the most of the extensive coastline of 2,414 km, the chefs marinate fresh seafood such as pejerrey, sea bass, tuna, octopus, sole, black squid or sea urchin, in lemon juice before seasoning them with chili pepper or hot pepper.
The heart of beef is seasoned with garlic, cumin, red pepper and marinade of vinegar, and then placed in a brazier as if it were a shish kebab. They are succulent, soft and have an intense flavor ... the anticuchos are usually served with boiled potatoes.
It is an exciting and refreshing cuisine that consists of several hybrid dishes. Among the most outstanding we can mention the tiradito, a mixture of sashimi and ceviche, and octopus to the olive, octopus covered with a vibrant olive.
It is extremely versatile and venerated by people with celiac disease, because it is a tasty substitute for wheat; This superfood occurs in the regions of Puna and the Andes, and is part of many dishes such as tamales, soups, quinoa stews and salads.
This is a fast food option among Peruvians at any time of the day. The perfect chicharrón sandwich is considered succulent and crunchy in a single bite.
This meat was eaten before and after the Inca period; It is a low fat and nutritious option that you could actually enjoy.
This is another dish that dates from the pre-Columbian era; the causes were traditionally prepared by mixing yellow potatoes with chili. They are almost like a sandwich where potatoes replace bread; the causes are filled with chicken or tuna salad and mayonnaise is added.
Do you need something sweet that gives you energy? These donut-like rings are prepared with sweet potatoes and pumpkin, seasoned with anise and cinnamon and then bathed in fig syrup, passion fruit or sugar cane. It is a deliciously exotic combination that exceeds simple donut rings.
It is a two-layer candy that you will probably want to share due to its exorbitant sugar content. The cloying base of the Lima sigh is made of white manjar candy, and then it is covered by a merengue with an infusion of port wine and a touch of cinnamon is added.
The restaurant Central once again stood out in the ranking of a British publication, being fourth in a list of 50. This new news has returned to Peruvian gastronomy in the eyes of the world.
Also, users on the Internet have begun to ask about the cost of the dishes in this prestigious place of Peruvian chef Virgilio Martínez, located in the district of Miraflores.
The information published on the website of the restaurant reveals that the prices are not as expensive, as one might think, due to the excellent level of attention and the quality of the dishes that accept the great distinction.
In the Central letter you can find tickets ranging from 40 to 80 soles. Hot ceviche, purple charcoal octopus, lacquered shrimp, beef gizzard are some of the offers.
The price of the bottom plates can vary between 70 and 80 soles. Crunchy sea bass, sado grouper, stewed paiche, among others, are some of the recommendations.
Between 30 and 40 soles costs a sweet to close lunch or dinner at the Central restaurant. In this case, desserts with a combination of fruits stand out.


When I first started working on this project I happened to be visiting Eero Saarinen's School of Music in Ann Harbor. Even though the building is interesting, it struck me as odd that no music could be heard in the passageways, not even in the common spaces. At about the same time I watched a documentary about the Music Conservatory in Santiago de Cuba, it was an old colonial house filled with people, joy and music.
For this project, I wanted to push to the limits the possibility of acoustic excellence – and also the seclusion and soundproofing of every space –, as well as convey the conviviality and extroversion particular to certain musical practices.
As for the inside/outside relationship and air-conditioning, I also wanted to achieve the equilibrium, or get the best of both worlds: opening towards the outside and, as an alternative, a mechanical and sophisticated climatization of each space.
The urban struggle for central and accessible sites results in many schools, even music schools, clinics and hospitals being located in very noisy areas such as this. It is a vibrant area with a certain "suburban centrality".
The clearest statement of this project was the creation of an exterior space – a large patio covered with grass – formed by a volume that gradually increases in height and protects it from the exterior noise. As the top of the building gently slopes upwards, the rooms grow successively higher, from smaller classrooms meant for instruments that produce a weaker sound (the flute, for instance), to larger rooms meant for percussion instruments.
The outside of the school is an almost blind volume, except for the corners, where large glass surfaces make the view explode on the inside. But not the sound.
All the public spaces and larger rooms were built in the lower floors. The Auditorium is the main space of the building, with a seating capacity of 448 people. Though it is mainly a teaching space, it should be prepared to host musical performances of the highest level, and thus its acoustic requirements are very demanding. Is form is a wooden shell.
In addition to the teaching spaces, there are a variety of rooms with different dimensions and another (smaller) auditorium. The great "loggia" that surrounds them serves as a spare space for future extensions to the school. The library, cafeteria, office area and staffrooms occupy the southern part of this floor.
Using concrete as our main building material was a simple way of obtaining high levels of acoustic stability and insulation. Silence. The floor in the rooms is made out of wood. It vibrates.
Je viens d'effectuer un voyage de 10 jours au Portugal (Lisbonne + Algarve + Alentejo). Je suis aller visiter 3 de vos projets : le musée archéologique du château St Georges, l'église de Portalegre et l'Ecole de musique de Lisbonne. Je n'ai pas pu entrer dans les deux derniers. Je ne les ai vus que de l'extérieur. Je suis tres admiratif de votre talent pour créer des espaces d'une très belle plasticité. Mais je dois avouer que je n'ai pas compris pourquoi les façades exposés à l'ouest et au sud qui donnent sur le grand espace vegetalisé n'ont pas de protection solaire efficace. Certains sunscreen sont uses par le soleil ainsi que certaines portes. Je pense aussi qu'il doit faire très chaud dans certains studios de répétition sauf à mettre beaucoup d'air rafraîchi. J'ai été déçu également par le très mauvais entretien de la "pelouse".
Merci de me donner les bons arguments pour que le plaisir que j'ai éprouvé à visiter cette œuvre soit complet.

Q: MS Office Word VSTO "Load On Demand" We have developed a product that is a standard VSTO addin (Word 2010 and Word 2013, x86 only).  By default when it is installed, it is installed for all users (ie. the addin registry entries are inserted into HKLM - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\[Wow6432Node]\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins).
When the value for the LoadBehavior reg key is set to 0x3 (i.e. "Load at Startup"), the addin works perfectly fine, however when we set the value for LoadBehavior to 0x10 (i.e. "Load on demand"), the addin does not work as we would expect:
Due to UAC (and that Word does not run elevated), the value of LoadBehavior in HKLM is not changed from 0x10 to 0x9 but instead is overridden by creating a LoadBehavior key (with value 0x9) in the HKCU hive.
Unfortunately, we have found that this HKCU overridden value is not taken into account unless the Manifest key is present in the HKCU hive along with LoadBehavior). More info on this related thread: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/3776734b-333e-423b-9c08-7c7a441c3e94/load-behavior-and-word-addin?forum=vsto
The 'obvious' remedy for this issue is to write the Manifest into HKCU for each user (as well as in HKLM) at install time OR when each user run the addin the first time. There are however some serious drawbacks with this approach:

*

*Uninstalling the addin requires removing every user HKCU values to prevent users experiencing loading issues (this is not recommended and poses other issues/complications such as the need to use Active Setup - Remove registry keys under HKCU on a per machine installation).

*Users which have these values in their (roaming) HKCU hive, experience issues when they login to a machine in the same domain which does not have our addin installed.

Is it a bug that the manifest is not obtained from HKLM where the LoadBehavior is set appropriately in HKCU? I think this issue would be resolved if the LoadBehavior in HKLM could be overridden in HKCU without the need for the Manifest value to be overridden as well.
Anyone knows of a way to overcome this issue?

A: Short of setting the UAC to "Never Notify," I do not know of a way to overcome your issues directly. However, I am going to suggest a workaround that will allow you to essentially Load on Demand.
I suggest that you change your VSTO addin'sLoadBehavior to 0x0 (Unloaded - Do Not Load Automatically) and then use a VBA command in an automatically loaded template to control when your add-in loads. Here is an outline of the steps to take:

*

*In Visual Studio make sure the ribbon in your addin is coded as an XML file (not created using the Visual Designer). Within this ribbon define a custom namespace.

*Create a Word template (.dotm). Using the Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office embed within this template the XML for a ribbon tab that is labeled and positioned the same as the one from your add-in. Define the namespace in the XML the same as the one in your Visual Studio XML code so that they share the same namespace. Also, define a button that will load your addin (and perhaps do additional functions within your addin as well).

*Within your Template write a sub to load your unloaded 0x0 addin using this code:
Application.COMAddIns(ProgID).Connect = True
ProgID is either the item idex of your ProgID or the actual name of the ProgID in quotes.

*Within your template write a callback that will call the code to load the addin from the button.

*Place the template in Word's STARTUP directory. For Word 2010 that is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\STARTUP
What we want to happen is that when Word is launched the VSTO addin is installed but is not loaded. The template you created IS loaded automatically from the STARTUP directory and places the ribbon tab for your application within Word. Because the VSTO addin is not loaded, those controls are not currently visible. However, after implementing the steps above, when the button from the template's XML is clicked, your addin will load its controls onto the same ribbon because they share a namespace. And when Word is closed and re-launched, it resets to the VSTO addin being installed but not loaded.
Taking this a step further, if you wanted to avoid the extra click of loading the VSTO addin controls, you could conceivably recreate the VSTO addin's XML within the template and have each control call code to load your VSTO addin, hide the template's ribbon controls, and perform your addin's functionality. In this way you would have your placeholder ribbon provided by the template's XML and the real addin loading and performing actions on demand.

A: The reason you are using Load On Demand most likely is to improve startup performance as described in MSDN. However, load-on-demand comes with a whole set of issues (no support for dynamic Ribbon UI state, issues with HKLM deployment etc).
As you already said, there are no issues with Load at Startup. Therefore, the recommended way to load your add-in is to use a LoadBehavior value of 0x3.
If you are facing issues with your add-ins load performance, one solution might be to use a light-weight add-in which is always loaded at startup and then this add-in acts as a loader for the actual add-in.

Today is the first International Day for Universal Access to Information (IDUAI), 28 September 2016. The National Union of Somali Journalists (NUSOJ) joins the worldwide freedom of expression community in celebrating this international day. NUSOJ particularly solutes the African free expression advocacy community who successfully championed for this international day to be declared.
The right of access to information is a human right. Somali people are entitled to have the right to be able to access information, form opinions and share ideas without any restrictions or interferences from the government.
In Somalia, the right of access to information is provided for in the provisional Constitution. Article 32 states that: "(1) Every person has the right of access to information held by the state; (2) Every person has the right of access to any information that is held by another person which is required for the exercise or protection of any other just right; (3) Federal Parliament shall enact a law to ensure the right of access to information".
In the past four years, the Federal Government of Somalia failed to enact an access to information law as dictated by the Constitution of the country. Despite constitutional guarantees, there is no legal regime that provides members of the public with the right to access records and information held by public bodies. The media law that was enacted in January 2016 impinges this right by limiting journalists and media's access to information.
Those who inform the public, particularly Somali journalists, operate in a very hostile environment. Journalists have been arrested, intimidated or even murdered in the exercise of their duty or whenever State actors or None-State actors felt their reporting had gone against their interests. Media houses are closed down for broadcasting or publishing information that people want to know.
"Access to information enables the citizenry to effectively participate in their governance and development by ensuring accountability of the government and its leaders. Unless citizens have access to information, their ability to hold public actors to account, participate in policy processes is incessantly hindered, which means effectively impeding public participation in the governance" said Omar Faruk Osman, NUSOJ Secretary General.
NUSOJ is fully cognizant that majority of people in Somalia are generally unaware of their right of access to information and the constitutional guarantees that allow them to request information from government offices. Demand for information is dependent on the awareness and capacity of potential end-users to access the information.
"We solute and commend brave journalists and other citizens who, despite all risks to their life and restricts, strive to exercise their right to access information. It is also a day to remember those who have become victims for exercising their right to access information," added Osman.
Openness and accessibility by the public to information about government activities is a vital component of democracy and a positive aspect of good governance. Accessing accurate information helps citizens to make informed decisions on issues that affect them. The right of access to information also helps make government processes more transparent and those governing more accountable.
As the country heads indirect elections, the next government of Somalia must honour its constitutional and international obligation to avail its people of the right to access information by putting in place legal provisions that guarantee the enjoyment of the right of access to information.

Abstract: AIMS: We wish to study the spectral dependence of the radio emission from cosmic-ray air showers around 100 PeV (1017 eV). METHODS: We observe short radio pulses in a broad frequency band with the dipole-interferometer LOPES (LOFAR Prototype Station), which is triggered by a particle detector array named Karlsruhe Shower Core and Array Detector (KASCADE). LOFAR is the Low Frequency Array. For this analysis, 23 strong air shower events are selected using parameters from KASCADE. RESULTS: The resulting electric field spectra fall off to higher frequencies. An average electric field spectrum is fitted with an exponential, or alternatively, with a power law. The spectral slope obtained is not consistent within uncertainties and it is slightly steeper than the slope obtained from Monte Carlo simulations based on air showers simulated with CORSIKA (Cosmic Ray Simulations for KASCADE). One of the strongest events was measured during thunderstorm activity in the vicinity of LOPES and shows the longest pulse length measured of 110 ns and a spectral slope of -3.6. CONCLUSIONS: We show with two different methods that frequency spectra from air shower radio emission can be reconstructed on event-by-event basis, with only two dozen dipole antennae simultaneously over a broad range of frequencies. According to the obtained spectral slopes, the maximum power is emitted below 40 MHz. Furthermore, the decrease in power to higher frequencies indicates a loss in coherence determined by the shower disc thickness. We conclude that a broader bandwidth, larger collecting area, and longer baselines, as will be provided by LOFAR, are necessary to further investigate the relation of the coherence, pulse length, and spectral slope of cosmic ray air showers.
