Kia Ceed GT-Line – GT-inspired trim line announced in Paris
Sporty styling and revised interior for the Ceed, arriving early in 2019
by: Antony Ingram
Kia has revived its sporty GT-Line trim level at the Paris motor show, available on both hatchback and Sportswagon versions of the Ceed and as the standard trim level on the recently revealed Proceed shooting brake.
Taking their inspiration from the 204bhp Ceed GT announced alongside the Proceed, regular Ceeds will be available with GT-Line trim with the three standard engine choices – a 1-litre turbocharged three-cylinder, a 1.4-litre turbocharged four-pot, and a four-cylinder, 1.6-litre turbodiesel in two power outputs.
> Kia Ceed GT revealed alongside Proceed shooting brake
Sportiest of the bunch will be the 1.4 petrol – the same unit as used in the Hyundai i30 N-Line. In that application it's good for 130mph and 0-62mph in a shade under nine seconds. The 1.6 CRDi makes 134bhp in its more powerful guise, with a 113bhp version also available, while the three-cylinder produces 118bhp, with 127lb ft of torque.
A six-speed manual transmission is standard, while the larger petrol and the diesel are both optionally available with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Primarily, though, GT-Line is a styling pack, and notably Kia doesn't claim the same kind of chassis changes that Hyundai does with its i30 N-Line, though does note that GT-Line models have been developed for and engineered on European roads.
Visual changes include 17- or 18-inch alloy wheels, front and rear bumpers like those of the Ceed GT, a satin chrome and gloss black front grille, and redesigned front fog light surrounds with horizontal 'blades'.
There are further changes inside, with a black rooflining in place of the standard grey, metal scuff plates, a flat-bottomed steering wheel and metal paddles for models with the dual-clutch gearbox.
> Kia Proceed GT revealed - a shooting brake for the masses
Front sports seats in cloth and synthetic leather are standard, too, with more heavily bolstered seats from the Ceed GT also available. Full leather trim, with heated and ventilated front seats and heated rears, is an option.
Along with this there's the usual suite of safety and convenience features, JBL premium audio, CarPlay and Android Auto integration and a reversing camera.
Kia hasn't yet revealed when exactly the model will hit the UK, nor how much it'll cost when it does, though it's set to go on sale in Europe in the first quarter of 2019, so expect more information later this year.

Greenwich (UK i/ɡrɪnɪdʒ/ GRIN-ij; US /ɡrɛnɪtʃ/ GREN-ich or /ɡrɛnɪdʒ/ GREN-ij) is a district of south-east London, England, located in the Royal Borough of Greenwich and situated 5.5 miles (8.9 km) east south-east of Charing Cross.
Greenwich is notable for its maritime history and for giving its name to the Greenwich Meridian (0° longitude) and Greenwich Mean Time. The town became the site of a royal palace, the Palace of Placentia from the 15th century, and was the birthplace of many in the House of Tudor, including Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. The palace fell into disrepair during the English Civil War and was rebuilt as the Royal Naval Hospital for Sailors by Sir Christopher Wren and his assistant Nicholas Hawksmoor. These buildings became the Royal Naval College in 1873, and they remained an establishment for military education until 1998 when they passed into the hands of the Greenwich Foundation. The historic rooms within these buildings remain open to the public; other buildings are used by University of Greenwich and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance.
The town became a popular resort in the 17th century and many grand houses were built there, such as Vanbrugh Castle (1717) established on Maze Hill, next to the park. From the Georgian period estates of houses were constructed above the town centre. The maritime connections of Greenwich were celebrated in the 20th century, with the siting of the Cutty Sark and Gipsy Moth IV next to the river front, and the National Maritime Museum in the former buildings of the Royal Hospital School in 1934. Greenwich formed part of Kent until 1889 when the County of London was created.

About three years ago, Aaron Duffy, partner and creative director at production shop 1stAveMachine, got an email from Qualcomm asking to work with the company on a project. "I remember thinking, 'Oh, they must be confused; they want an agency,'" said Duffy. He offered to connect them with one of the ad agencies his company works with.
But there was no confusion. Qualcomm wanted the shop to conceptualize and execute an animated brand film for the company. That was the beginning of a relationship that has become increasingly common in the industry: Clients are bypassing agencies and going direct to production companies in search of efficiency and nimbleness.
Duffy, recognizing this trend, opened Special Guest, a sibling company to 1stAveMachine, created specifically to service brand clients directly. For example, it created "Vision Film," a gorgeously shot video that acts as a brand film for Qualcomm, showing how the company's products affect everyone's lives. Special Guest also works directly with mango drink brand Frooti, Facebook and Squarespace.
"For us, not having that middle man was interesting and challenging," said Duffy, who trained himself and his team in new things that the company didn't previously do, like concept, planning and strategy — not just shooting and editing, which is what these companies typically spend time on.
Liya Sharif, who heads global brand strategy at Qualcomm, said that while agencies are still very much part of her portfolio, there is something unique about working directly with companies like 1stAveMachine. "We get time to be creative and have an ability to direct the work," she said. "They also bring to the table an expertise level that traditional agencies may not be staffed up for." In those cases, the agency is going to outsource it to production shops anyway, said Sharif. So why not do it themselves?

Qualcomm is hardly alone. A new report from the Society of Digital Agencies, a network for marketing professionals, found that the share of brands claiming that they don't work with any agencies at all doubled this year, to 27 percent. The research, by eConsultancy, found that more brands are bringing creative and digital efforts in-house, bypassing agencies and working directly with production company partners.
Not only are these projects faster, they tend to be cheaper, too. Duffy echoed that: "There's probably saving there," he said.
The trend is especially effective for companies with large in-house creative teams of their own. When Nike released its new SB Free shoe, for example, the shoe company called the production company Brand New School, and asked them to work on it — effectively cutting out the agency middle man. "We also often pitch on projects, just like with the agency model," said managing director Devin Brook.
It happens across categories. Under Armour, which works with agency of record Droga5, created a campaign in February called "Book of Will," with production company Tight Shirt Production Films. Starring actor Jamie Foxx, the campaign, which the brand claimed was its largest to date, featured footage of NBA star Stephen Curry and introduced the "Curry One" sneaker.

Urgent care center to be developed on Jones Creek Road following $530K building sale
July 15, 2015 by Susan Brown
The building at 6441 Jones Creek Road that formerly housed The Perfect Bass music store, which specialized in selling bass guitars, amplifiers and guitars, is getting a new owner and a new use.
The building sold Friday for $530,000 to Stat Care Clinic LLC, which will convert it to an urgent care facility.
According to Carmen Austin of Saurage Rotenberg Commercial Real Estate, who represented the seller, GRA Realty LLC, the building is in excellent condition. Originally constructed for a Carquest Auto Parts store, it was later leased to Perfect Bass.
Stat Care Clinic was represented by Dr. Bryan Barrett, who operates an urgent care clinic in Central. Tim Smith with NAI/Latter & Blum served as agent for Stat Care.
"Dr. Barrett was looking for a new location with similar demographics that was underserved by urgent care clinics," Smith says. "He purchased this building and is leasing another building on South Sherwood Forest Blvd. The building will require extensive renovation for conversion to an urgent care facility, but the purchase price at around $98 per square foot will allow for that to happen."

In An Ultra-Competitive Market, Carriers Boost Offerings
by Matthew Fulcoon 2017-07-18 2017-07-17

As more Taiwanese travel internationally, competition is intensifying in the nation's aviation market. In particular, carriers are vying for a greater share of long-haul flights to North America and Europe as well as Southeast Asia routes.
Amidst these market conditions, China Airlines had added Airbus's new A350-900 to its fleet. The A350-900 is praised for being the aircraft that is the "most high-tech, most energy efficient, most eco-friendly, most spacious and least noisy," according to the airline. The cabin is composed of three classes, with 32 seats in Premium Business, 31 seats in Premium Economy, and 243 seats in Economy Class. China Airlines is the first airline to fly the A350 to San Francisco, offering service to the California city 11 times a week, including flights CI-4 and CI-3 daily.
The China Airlines NexGen A350 fleet has received numerous awards since its launch. Those include Japan's Good Design Award, Best Business Class Seat Design from the renowned U.S. travel magazine Global Traveler, as well as TheDesignAir Readers Poll Awards 2016 and the The Design Air Awards 2016 from the international aviation design website TheDesignAir.
In an email to Taiwan Business TOPICS, China Airlines noted said that "in 2017, further restrictions on Chinese travel to Taiwan as well as intense competition in the Japanese and Korean markets means oversupply is now inevitable. In response, CAL will cooperate with the government's New Southbound Policy to channel effective capacity into promising Southeast Asian destinations."
In addition, China Airlines signed a memorandum of understanding with Airbus in January and was awarded AS9110 Certification by the French Standardization Association (AFNOR) in June. China Airlines expects to become an authorized Airbus aircraft maintenance service supplier by the end of 2017. "The growing demand for aircraft maintenance from Airbus customers in Asia-Pacific region should lead to new business opportunities," the company said by email.

Meanwhile, to enhance its offerings on long-haul flights, United Airlines introduced its new Polaris business class in December. Exclusive to United, the individual suite-like pods were "designed to ensure passengers have the best possible sleep…with the aspiration to make weary business travel a relic of the past."
The pods include a large number of amenities to facilitate ample shuteye: custom bedding and slippers, pajamas on flights over 12 hours, gel-cooled pillows, and amenity kits with ergonomically designed eye shades.
United has also introduced United Polaris lounges exclusively for international premium cabin travelers, a first for a U.S. carrier. Passengers traveling in international first or business class cabins on Star Alliance partner airlines will also have access to the United Polaris lounges, which will be available at the Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Chicago O'Hare, Newark, Washington Dulles, Tokyo Narita, Hong Kong and London Heathrow airports.
The lounges provide multiple dining and drinking options. Highlights include a multi-course menu developed by award-winning chef Art Smith, a large buffet with chef-created small plates, and handcrafted cocktails designed by mixologist Adam Seger.

There are so many reasons to visit Mexico in November and December, particularly if you live somewhere that experiences cold winters. Warm sunshine and pristine beaches are popular (and understandable) reasons to plan an early winter getaway. But one reason you might not have considered is that November and December are the prime months for turtle-hatching, and you can be a part of the experience when you book your vacation in Riviera Nayarit.
It's not exactly clear why sea turtles choose certain beaches over others, but we do know that the female sea turtles remain loyal to their beach once they choose it, returning year after year to lay eggs. The nesting process is generally slow and deliberate as the female turtles slowly find a dry spot on the beach to dig a nest and bury their eggs, laying anywhere from 80-120 eggs. Once she lays and buries her eggs, the female sea turtle does not return to tend the nest.
In general, incubation takes around 60 days, but this range can fluctuate based on the temperature of the sand. When they are ready, the sea turtles must hatch on their own since their mother does not return to help. They use a temporary sharp tooth that is used just for cracking their egg, called a caruncle. The process of hatching is exhausting for the baby turtles and can take several days for the group to hatch. This usually occurs at night or just after a rainstorm when the temperature drops.
As if hatching from an egg isn't hard enough, one born, the hatchlings must safely navigate from the beach to the ocean without getting eaten or captured by predators, including people who steal the turtle eggs and baby turtles to sell on the black market. They have a short window of about 48 hours during which they must get to safety and find food. Because of the dangers imposed on baby sea turtles, along with their status as an endangered species, Mexico is dedicated to conservation projects that protect the eggs and baby sea turtles in addition to ensuring safety for the baby sea turtles once they hatch.
Riviera Nayarit is one of the many areas in Mexico dedicated to sea turtle conservation, and our sea turtle hatchery is located on the north end of our property. We love for our guests to get involved in sea turtle conservation by volunteering at the hatchery during the late summer months when our conservationists need help harvesting the recently laid eggs and incubating them until they are ready to be released. This is a one of a kind experience that is great for kids and adults alike to be a part of, and as a thank you for your help, we will discount your stay.
If you weren't able to volunteer this summer, you are still in time to witness what just might be the highlight of your trip to Mexico. The baby turtle release happens at twilight during the months of November and December, and we release hundreds (sometimes thousands) of baby turtles into the Pacific Ocean. You can experience this majestic moment from a distance or first hand, by holding a baby turtle and releasing it into the ocean by hand. Either way, you will be sure to hold this moment in your heart forever.
The release of our baby sea turtles is one of our favorite parts of the year, and we would love for you to join us. For more information on the sea turtle hatchery at Riviera Nayarit, or to get started booking your trip, contact us today.

Ilanz ( Romansch Glion [ ʎɔn ]? / I ) until December 31, 2013, municipality in the district Surselva the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland and their character, the first town on the Rhine. The small town, capital of the homonymous district, is located on the Rhine front amidst the wide opening Gruob, at the entrance of the valley Damphreux, a few kilometers above the Rhine gorge Ruinaulta. On 1 January 2014, merged with the former municipalities Ilanz Castrisch, Duvin, Ladir, luffing, Pigniu, Pitasch, Riein, Rueun, Ruschein, Schnaus, Sevgein, Siat the new community Ilanz / Glion.
As a regional administrative center, seat of the regional hospital, market and school location Ilanz forms the center of the lower Surselva. Compared to the earlier prevailing sursilvanischen idiom of Romansh to German has established itself as slang majority. Nevertheless, gave occasion to the last census, a slight majority of the population to speak regularly Romanesque, and the planned introduction of bilingual primary school should strengthen the traditional language in the years to something. Since 1978, the previously independent community Strada belongs to Ilanz. The municipality advertises with the slogan " The first city on the Rhine ."
The 765 in the will of Bishop Tello mentioned in documents in 1289 as a settlement called city under the name Illiande. The interpretation of the name with " granary " is questionable. At the beginning of the Middle Ages there were three population centers: top Ilanz at the Church of St. Martin, Under - Ilanz in today Städtli and Saint Nicholas on the left bank of the Rhine front. Center of the town was initially probably top Ilanz, where the rural village community had its headquarters. Here resided the Minister of the Frankish King for the County Tuverasga which included the whole Gruob. In sub - Ilanz, in the field of St.Margarethenkirche and Casa Gronda the episcopal Grosshof, Bishop Tello was had 765 the monastery Disentis bequeathed.
The importance of top - Ilanz was soon replaced by sub - Ilanz. With the disintegration of the Frankish dominion upper Ilanz had lost its position as seat of the minister. Moreover, the importance of Grosshofs of the Disentis Monastery was grown in sub - Ilanz, as the abbey gained political and economic importance from the 10th century. Also, increased traffic over the Lukmanier, so that the location of the sub - route Lukmanier Ilanz gained in importance.
The third core settlement St. Nicholas is likely despite lacking references in documents due to historic settlement considerations as old, if not older than the Städtli- quarters; Archaeological finds prove that the Lukmanierweg must have passed already in prehistoric times here. Due to the economic policy preferred position on the Rhine Ilanzer obtained probably in the second half of the 13th century, the city law. The privilege of a city encompassed by medieval legal claim to own market, its own court and on city walls.
While the market law of Ilanzer remained uncontested, they were unable to free themselves in legal matters of the Gruob. After all, the city received a so-called city or civil court, which was able to settle minor disputes and was responsible for foreign market people who stayed within the walls. The right to walls took advantage of the Ilanzer. 1390 possessed the town walls and gates, for a contract of this year reports that Baron Caspar von Sax St. Stephen Sporer have given to a hereditary ain hoffstat located ze Inlantz in the stat bi the undern tor nüwen on the ring muren under the ärggel ( Erker ) of Ruedis Schnider hus.
The same treaty of 1390 also mentions a stat right and gewonhait ze Inlantz. From its contents became known only closer to 1529 or 1534 more: then sy ( the Ilanzer ) vii order in IRER instead be right with hofstetten, techeren, alleys, ödgesselynen ( small streets ) ... ouch so habent sy a hard to keep bridges and ouch VII other complaints, it sy wuren with or spell holtz ... ouch other ufsatzung of the for due and ouch to ire arrangement of würten ( hosts ) half uszeschenken. Apparently the municipal law contained a kind of building code regulations for Bridge and Wuhren and a fire police and economic order.
However, despite Ilanz city law does not free the city such as the imperial cities of Zurich and Bern, but was owned by a city gentleman who possessed claim to numerous compensation in the form of interest and duty and levied a tax for protection against enemy attacks from the citizens. Masters of the city were the Barons of Belmont, named after their castle Belmont near Fidaz in the late 13th and 14th centuries. The Belmonter, which included almost all the Gruob and the Val Lumnezia had to defend their property in 1352 against the Lord of becoming mountain Heiligenberg, who scored with his troops in the Gruob and Ilanz sacked. 1483 a fire destroyed the city and the St. Margaret Church. The year 1513 on the ground floor of the Obertors points out that the city was rebuilt relatively soon.
1371 were the Barons of Sax - Misox the city lords of Ilanz; they had assumed his inheritance after the death of the last Belmonters. Among them, began a rapid ascent to gesamtbündnerischer importance for Ilanz. Here closed in 1395 Abbot John of Disentis, a native Ilanzer, Count Albrecht von Sax Misox and Baron Ulrich of the Mighty Rhazuns the country peace treaty Part Sura, which formed the basis of later extended in Truns Grey League. The importance of Ilanz soon enough beyond the actual federal territory, but it was after the unification of the Three Leagues with Chur and Davos in the rotation venue for the general Federal Assembly, the supreme authority of the Grisons Free State.
Ilanz ' central role won in the era of the Reformation even more important. In the St. Margaret Church decisive for the Reformation in Grisons disputations were held at the beginning of the 16th century. The Ilanzer disputation, a barred in January 1524 religious disputation, paved the way for the Reformation in the Grisons, which developed into a mixed denominational polity. In the Ilanzer Articles from June 25, 1526 the rights of communities against the Bishop of Chur were significantly strengthened.
In the same church occurred in 1538 and the first Evangelical Synod Raetian together. Ilanz was reformed and remained there about three hundred years. In the 19th century immigrant Catholics led the Catholic faith again and built in the center of the present city in 1879 a church.
In the Grisons turmoil of the early 17th century Ilanz was on the side of the French and Venetians. For many opponents of Spain granted shelter it had to pay under the Austrian occupation. As a result of hardship and poverty, the belief in witchcraft was spreading, which for some years resulted in Ilanz to numerous witch trials.

Devil May Cry 5 es un videojuego perteneciente al género hack and slash, desarrollado y publicado por la empresa Capcom. Fue lanzado el 8 de marzo de 2019, para las plataformas PlayStation 4, Xbox One y Microsoft Windows.

Es la quinta entrega de la serie Devil May Cry, y la primera entrega principal desde el lanzamiento de Devil May Cry 4 del año 2008.

El juego contará con Dante y Nero como personajes jugables, junto a V, un misterioso nuevo cliente que llega a las oficinas de Devil May Cry. Devil May Cry 5 recibió una recepción positiva de parte de la crítica especializada y el público.

Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition Se Anunció El 17 de septiembre de 2020 En concreto para PlayStation 5 y Xbox Series XS.

Jugabilidad

Devil May Cry 5 presenta una jugabilidad similar a los otros títulos de la serie Devil May Cry, centrándose en la "acción" a un ritmo elevado donde se destaca el estilo y la espectacularidad de los combates. El jugador lucha contra hordas de demonios con una variedad de ataques a distancia y armas cuerpo a cuerpo para recibir una calificación de estilo en combate basada en una serie de factores, como la variedad de movimientos, la duración de un combo y los ataques esquivados. Nero vuelve a usar su espada Red Queen, su revólver de doble cañón Blue Rose y, en sustitución de su brazo demoníaco, los Devil Breakers, unos nuevos brazos robóticos que varían en funcionalidad y ataques, como pueden ser electrocutar o detener el tiempo para congelar a un enemigo en su lugar. Se ha confirmado que el juego contará con el regreso de Dante y Nero como personajes jugables junto a un nuevo personaje, llamado "V".. La música en el juego cambiará según el rendimiento del jugador en el combate.

Nero está equipado con su espada Red Queen, su revólver de doble cañón la Blue Rose y una variedad de nuevos brazos robóticos llamados Devil Breakers, con una variedad de funciones como agarrar enemigos a distancia o detener el tiempo para congelar a un enemigo en su lugar. Junto con su espada de la firma Rebellion y la espada demoníaca de Sparda, Dante fue mostrado usando dos nuevas armas diabólicas, un par de armas tipo buzzsaw que se combinan en una motocicleta llamada Cavaliere, y un conjunto de guantes y botas de fuego llamados Balrog. Además, Dante también utilizará a Cerbero, introducido en Devil May Cry 3. El tercer personaje jugable, V, se muestra empuñando un bastón y un libro. Durante una entrevista, Capcom decidió no revelar cómo eran exactamente las peleas de V aún, aunque se han burlado de que el combate de V sería completamente diferente al de Nero y Dante. En el tráiler de Game Awards 2018, se revela que V usa tres demonios basados en enemigos del primer videojuego para pelear, que incluye a Griffon, un águila que usa ataques de rayos a distancia, Shadow, una pantera que forma cuchillas, picos y portales fuera de su cuerpo, y Nightmare, un gran golem en el que V entra en un estado Devil Trigger, que convierte su cabello en blanco, para convocar, que usa una combinación de ataques cuerpo a cuerpo y rayos láser.

El apartado visual del videojuego ha sido desarrollado usando el motor de juego de Capcom, el RE Engine (Motor RE), utilizado principalmente para la entrega de la saga de videojuegos de Resident Evil, el Resident Evil 7.

Trama

Los acontecimientos de Devil May Cry 5 se llevan a cabo cronológicamente después de Devil May Cry 4, presentando a un Dante y Nero notablemente mayores. Se muestra que Nero ahora está trabajando al estilo de la agencia de Dante llamada "Devil May Cry", y tiene su brazo demoníaco, Devil Bringer, cortado por un asaltante desconocido. Él recibe una prótesis robótica de Nico, una artesana experta, y nieta de la mujer que creó las icónicas pistolas de Dante: Ebony & Ivory. Nero jura venganza contra el hombre que le cortó el brazo.

El director Itsuno explicó que la historia tiene lugar varios años después del cuarto título porque Nero ha establecido su propia agencia de cacería de demonios basada en una camioneta adornada con un letrero de neón "Devil May Cry", que le dio Dante. Nero tiene un nuevo brazo robótico llamado "Devil Breaker", que fue creado por Nico.

Argumento

La historia tiene lugar cinco años después de los eventos de Devil May Cry 4. Nero creó su propia agencia de caza de demonios con una furgoneta adornada con un letrero de neón "Devil May Cry" que Dante le dio con el apoyo de Kyrie y su ingeniero Nico. Pero el 30 de abril, Nero se encuentra con un demonio moribundo que se arranca el brazo de Devil Bringer y usa el Devil Arm Yamato para abrir un portal para escapar. Unos días después, un hombre conocido como "V" viene a la oficina de Devil May Cry para contratar a Dante, Lady y Trish para matar a un cierto demonio que regresa. El grupo llega a Red Grave City el 16 de mayo, cruzando caminos con Nero ya que comparten el mismo objetivo: un demonio llamado Urizen que plantó un árbol demoníaco llamado Qliphoth en la ciudad, que está matando gente por su sangre. El grupo reunido intenta atacar a Urizen juntos, pero el demonio los domina a todos con Dante haciendo que V tome a Nero a salvo. Con su espada Rebellion rota por Urizen, Dante se ve obligado a usar la Espada del Diablo, pero finalmente es derrotado y expulsado del Qliphoth. Urizen luego captura a Lady y Trish, convirtiéndolas en núcleos para los demonios Artemisa y Cavaliere Angelo.

Un mes después, el 15 de junio, Nero regresa a la tumba roja después de haber sido equipado con el brazo protésico "Devil Breaker" que Nico hizo para él. Nero se encuentra con V después de vencer al demonio Goliat, que busca a Qliphoth por su fruto, nacido de sangre humana condensada, lo que hace que quien lo consume sea el rey del inframundo. Mientras los dos destruyen las raíces de Qliphoth mientras buscan a Dante, Nero derrota a Artemis para rescatar a Lady mientras V mata al demonio-parásito Nidhogg, liberando accidentalmente la construcción de la raíz Gilgamesh que luego persigue a Nero. V se reincorpora a Nero después de saber que otro demonio llamado Malphas también busca la fruta de Qliphoth mientras busca a la Sparda por temor a que los descendientes de su homónimo la adquieran. V se separa para encontrar a la Sparda primero y la descubre junto con un Dante en hibernación, cuya presencia estaba siendo escondida por la espada. Sin embargo, V casi apuñala a Dante y dice que si él nunca existió, pero falla y le dice a Dante que era la única forma de despertarlo.

Después de que Dante se entera de lo que ocurrió durante su siesta de un mes, lucha en su camino hacia Urizen y libera a Trish de Cavaliere Angelo en el camino. V le revela a Trish que Urizen es en realidad el lado demoníaco del hermano de Dante Vergil, quien usó el poder de Yamato para separar sus mitades demoníacas y humanas, la última de las cuales se manifestó como V con su cuerpo ahora en su límite. Dante, habiendo escuchado la historia completa cuando se encuentra por primera vez con V, deduce que el poder de Rebellion es lo opuesto a la capacidad de unir las mitades, mientras viaja el remanente de su hogar de la infancia. Al darse cuenta de por qué su padre le dio Rebelión, Dante se apuñala a sí mismo con la empuñadura de la espada rota para absorber a la Sparda, adquiriendo su forma de Sin Devil Trigger junto con su propia Espada del Diablo Dante. Nero intenta volver a enfrentar a Urizen, pero es superado una vez más, con Dante llegando justo a tiempo para salvarlo. Dante toma la delantera con sus nuevos poderes hasta que Urizen se despide una vez que el Qliphoth comienza a dar fruto. Mientras que Dante está en conflicto al hacer que Nero se una a ellos, una V enfermiza insiste en ello y los tres se separan para encontrar su propio camino hacia Urizen. Dante llega primero y derrota al rey Cerberus antes de enfrentarse a Urizen, habiendo comido ahora la fruta de Qliphoth. Mientras tanto, después de salvar V de Malphas, Nero se entera de la historia de Dante con Vergil. Él y V llegan a Dante justo cuando derrota a Urizen, pero una V moribunda interviene y se fusiona con Urizen antes de que Dante pueda terminar con él, reviviendo a Vergil una vez más.

Dante ataca al recién resucitado Vergil, quien lo vence rápidamente antes de abrir un portal a la parte superior del árbol Qliphoth, y le dice a Dante que se recupere por completo antes de que entren de nuevo. Nero insiste en ir tras Vergil mismo para buscar respuestas para perder su brazo. Pero Dante, sabiendo que era el tío del joven cazador de demonios desde que se conocieron en Fortuna, finalmente le revela a Nero que él es el hijo de Vergil y lo envía para que mantenga sus manos limpias y no mate a su propio padre. Nero, Nico, Lady y Trish escapan de Qliphoth, que se expande lentamente pero, a pesar de que el grupo le pide que no se enfrente a su padre, Nero, enojado y confundido, vuelve a perseguir a Vergil.

Dante se abre camino a través de los familiares ahora independientes de V antes de llegar a Vergil y los hijos de Sparda se involucran en otro duelo, durante el cual Dante le dice a Vergil que Nero es su hijo. Tras una llamada con Kyrie, Nero expresa sus emociones conflictivas por haber encontrado a su familia y no tener la fuerza para salvar al hermano de Kyrie, Credo, hace años. Kyrie convence a Nero de que se adhiera a sus instintos, y el joven cazador de demonios decide salvar a su padre y a su tío de matarse entre ellos. Nero llega justo a tiempo para detener a Dante y Vergil cuando su lucha alcanza su clímax, despertando completamente su Devil Trigger mientras regenera su brazo derecho. Vergil se burla de la resolución pacífica de su hijo cuando decide luchar contra él en su lugar, pero se ve rechazado hasta que acepta a regañadientes.

A medida que el Qliphoth cae, Nero deja Red Grave City junto a Nico mientras elimina a los demonios que se encuentran en el camino. Semanas más tarde, Trish y Lady son contratados para un nuevo trabajo por Morrison, a quien Dante dejó a cargo de su oficina antes de los eventos en Red Grave City. En el inframundo, Dante y Vergil se baten duelo interminablemente, debido a que son iguales y la constante interferencia de los demonios para matarlos, aunque su rivalidad parece ser más amistosa.

Desarrollo

El juego está dirigido por el veterano de la serie Devil May Cry, Hideaki Itsuno. Se ejecuta en el motor RE, utilizado por primera vez en Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. Itsuno explicó que el equipo de desarrollo apunta a un estilo gráfico "fotorrealista". El juego apuntará a 60 cuadros por segundo en todas las plataformas de lanzamiento específicas. Los desarrolladores escanearon varios modelos para darles un aspecto realista a los personajes e incluso a prendas reales que se crearon en Londres y se escanearon en Serbia. Capcom confirmó que la fecha de lanzamiento será el 8 de marzo de 2019. Una versión de demostración fue jugable en agosto de 2018 en la Gamescom.

En 2013, Itsuno mostró interés en continuar la serie original de Devil May Cry desarrollando una quinta entrega. Originalmente se pensó que la serie podría interrumpirse o terminar para siempre si Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition no fuera un éxito comercial. Sin embargo, en una entrevista con GameSpot, Itsuno confirmó que el futuro de la serie no dependía de Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition y sus ventas. También alivio los temores de que DMC: Devil May Cry y sus ventas no terminó la serie, lo que confirma que Capcom estaba finalmente satisfecha con las cifras de ventas finales de esos videojuegos. A mediados de enero de 2016, Itsuno declaró en Twitter que está trabajando en un proyecto que se encuentra en desarrollo y que aún no se pudo anunciar y, más tarde, en marzo, Reuben Langdon y Johnny Yong Bosch, que habían actuado como voz y captura de movimiento. para Dante y Nero, respectivamente, en Devil May Cry 4, se tomaron fotos con el equipo de captura de movimiento, lo que llevó a la especulación de que un nuevo juego de Devil May Cry está en desarrollo. En respuesta en Twitter sobre cualquier verdad sobre la especulación, Capcom Vancouver declaró que "no es un juego que [ellos] anunciaran que [están] trabajando en [su] estudio". El 17 de mayo de 2018, el nombre de dominio "DevilMayCry5.com" fue registrado por una entidad desconocida en el registro de dominio Onamae de Capcom. Devil May Cry 5 se confirmó en la E3 2018 para un lanzamiento el año siguiente.

El juego se planeó originalmente para ser anunciado en el año 2017. Sin embargo, las ideas para anunciarlo junto con la nueva versión de Resident Evil 2 llevaron a su cambio. El juego está siendo desarrollado por Capcom Dev Studio 1 y consta de muchos miembros del personal que trabajaron en las entradas de las series Dragon's Dogma y Devil May Cry. El equipo apunta a convertirlo en el mejor juego de acción del período Heisei. Se dejó un mensaje secreto en el primer tráiler para los fanáticos de la serie. Los respectivos actores de Dante y Nero, Reuben Langdon y Johnny Yong Bosch, han expresado su satisfacción por el juego. Contará con multijugador en línea para hasta tres jugadores.

Nico fue creado para ser una heroína contrastante para la novia de Nero, Kyrie, ya que la primera está más acostumbrada a luchar. Al desarrollar las habilidades de Devil Breaker de Nero, Itsuno señaló a Punch Line, lo que involucra a Nero disparándole a su brazo mecánico, y que esto fue hecho para atraer a los adolescentes.

La banda sonora del juego está compuesta por Casey Edwards, Cody Matthew Johnson y Jeff Rona. El 11 de junio de 2018, el tema de batalla de Nero, titulado "Devil Trigger", se lanzó como un sencillo de banda sonora para promocionar el juego. En septiembre de 2018, se lanzó el tema de batalla original de Dante "Subhuman (feat. Suicide Silence )" compuesto por Cody Matthew Johnson e interpretado por Suicide Silence. Sin embargo, Capcom eliminó la canción de la banda sonora después de que surgieran acusaciones de conducta sexual inapropiada en torno al vocalista principal de la banda. Capcom reemplazó a Hermida con el exvocalista de Volumes Michael Barr para ser el nuevo vocalista de la canción. En diciembre del año 2018, se lanzó el tema de batalla original "Crimson Cloud" del nuevo personaje de franquicia V, compuesto por Jeff Rona.

Se anunció que los jugadores que compren la Edición Deluxe del juego recibirán acceso a varias piezas de contenido adicional, como el arma Cavaliere R para Dante, nuevas escenas y opciones de locutor, música de batalla de los primeros cuatro títulos de Devil May Cry y cuatro Devil Breaker Armas para Nero, incluido un Mega Buster basado en Mega Man 11.

Escenario y reparto

Nico fue creado para ser una heroína contrastante para la novia de Nero, Kyrie, ya que la primera está más acostumbrada a luchar. Al desarrollar las habilidades de la Devil Breaker de Nero, Itsuno señaló que Punch Line, que involucra a Nero disparándole a su brazo mecánico, fue hecho para atraer a los adolescentes.

Música

La banda sonora del juego está compuesta por Kota Suzuki, Casey Edwards, Cody Matthew Johnson y Jeff Rona.

Los temas de batalla de Nero son "Devil Trigger" y su remix final "Silver Bullet", ambos interpretados por Ali Edwards, el primero lanzado el 11 de junio de 2018 como una banda sonora para promover el videojuego. En septiembre de 2018, se lanzó el tema de batalla de Dante "Subhuman", compuesto por Johnson e interpretado por Suicide Silence. El tema fue originalmente cantado por el vocalista principal de la banda, Eddie Hermida, antes de que fuera reemplazado por el exvocalista de Volumes, Michael Barr, luego de las acusaciones de conducta sexual inapropiada. En diciembre de 2018, se lanzó el tema de batalla original "Crimson Cloud" del nuevo personaje de franquicia V, compuesto por Rona. El último tráiler presenta el tema final del videojuego "Legacy", compuesto por Kota Suzuki y cantado por Ali Edwards. La versión japonesa del juego incluye la canción "MAD QUALIA" de Hyde .

Recepción

Después de la Tokyo Game Show del año 2018, Devil May Cry 5 ganó el premio "Future Division" de los Japan Game Awards. Ha habido cierta inquietud en la comunidad de jugadores con respecto a la decisión de incluir micropagos opcionales con los que poder comprar orbes rojos, que se usan para mejorar al personaje, aunque esto ya se encontraba en el cuarto juego de la saga. Capcom ha confirmado a los fanáticos que esto de ninguna manera altera el sistema de progresión diseñado para el juego, y es similar al de DMC4: SE.

Devil May Cry 5 recibió "revisiones y críticas generalmente favorables" en todas las plataformas, según la página de reseñas de Metacritic. La narrativa y el concepto del videojuego fue elogiado por IGN Mitchell Saltzman, quien dijo que 'su misteriosa historia mantiene las cosas interesantes en el camino.'

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement in cooperation with the Division of Emergency Management, Florida Association of Broadcasters, Inc., Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Florida Highway Patrol, Florida Department of Lottery, Florida Department of Transportation, Florida's Police Departments and Sheriff's Offices and private partners is responsible for activation of the Florida AMBER Alert in accordance with the Florida AMBER Plan.
The Florida AMBER Plan was established in 2000, making Florida the second state in the nation to develop a statewide AMBER Alert. The purpose of the Plan is to broadcast critical information of an abducted child as quickly as possible to the media and general public. The initial plan included use of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) to notify the media and public. The plan was expanded in 2002 to include use of road signs and lottery machines when an Alert is activated. Additionally, the Plan now includes the ability for members of the public to receive emails or free text messages when an AMBER Alert is activated.
To aid in the recovery of missing children who are in danger where there is no evidence of an abduction, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement established the Missing Child Alert in 2003.
The AMBER Alert was named for nine year-old Amber Hagerman (pictured left). She was abducted in 1996 while riding her bicycle outside of her grandparent's home in Texas. She was found deceased four days later. The case is still unsolved. AMBER has since become an acronym for "America's Missing: Broadcasting Emergency Response". In 2003, Congress passed the PROTECT Act to establish and support the development of AMBER plans in each state.
For more information visit the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Missing Persons' Alerts webpage or contact the FDLE Missing Endangered Persons Information Clearinghouse toll-free number at 1-888-356-4774.

'Humans of Oahu'
Please provide a brief description of your STEP Signature Project. Write two or three sentences describing the main activities your STEP Signature Project entailed.
I traveled independently to Oahu, Hawaii to experience a different culture and environment far outside of my comfort zone. I interviewed strangers in Hawaii that included transplants, native islanders, tourists, businesspeople, college students, etc. to document their stories and pictures into an online collection entitled, 'Humans of Oahu,' modeled after 'Humans of New York.' Cultural activities also aided my experience—I participated in Hawaiian cultural experiences including museums, snorkeling, and traditional luau that coupled with interviewing developed my photography, writing, and interpersonal skills.
One of my favorite pictures from the project. It captures all the homes of Hawaii's people
What about your understanding of yourself, your assumptions, or your view of the world changed/transformed while completing your STEP Signature Project? Write one or two paragraphs to describe the change or transformation that took place.
The largest transformation that I experienced during my STEP project was the ability to empathize with other cultures while putting aside my own assumptions. Since I have never been out of the country or had a chance to experience a different culture, I expected it to be a challenge to shed my ethnocentric notions—meaning judgments of another person's culture according to the preconceptions of my own culture. In my anthropology class from the previous semester, my professor challenged us to engage in cultural relativism, the idea that a person's beliefs and traditions should be judged on the basis of their own culture, rather than the culture of the person doing the judging (in this case, me). This trip not only allowed me to engage in cultural relativism, but enabled me to move a step beyond that into empathy. The people I spoke with in Hawaii, though they are separated from us by thousands of miles, face similar issues that the people in the continental United States encounter. There is one example that sticks out as the most profound. More than once I had the chance to speak with Native Islanders in Hawaii. It was apparent to us both that most tourists arrive at the island starry eyed with the idea of luxury and sunshine. While these things aren't hard to find if you're looking, it's also very hard to ignore the widespread poverty that lines the beaches and mountains. The difference between Waikiki—a tourist capital of the country, and Waianae—the home of our Airbnb and a hot spot of Hawaiian ancestry, is day and night. Waikiki lines their streets with billboards for massages, while Waianae lines their streets with tents and foreclosed properties. Hawaii might be unique in their mountains and beaches, but sadly they are not alone in handling a large homeless population.
Another transformation of equal importance that occurred was in myself: I became comfortable with the uncomfortable. Upon arrival, I was very worried about approaching strangers. What if they told us to go away? What if they were mean? Or if we couldn't connect with the people we met—simply because of language barriers or a lack of cultural understanding. As it turns out, this is exactly what happened. The first time, the second time, the third time, and then, finally: someone was willing to speak with us! Then this cycle would repeat itself. I guess repetition makes perfect. When we were looking for people to interview, we were denied more times than I can count on my two hands. Sometimes it would take hours to find someone willing to speak with us. Other times people would agree to speak, but wouldn't want to sign the non-disclosure agreement. Becoming comfortable with speaking to strangers has no doubt aided my degree in marketing. This summer, I am a Sales intern. There were times when I was hesitant to take the position because I was worried that my demeanor was too shy. This project has helped me learn how to have confidence in speaking out for myself and communicating effectively with anyone that I meet. I feel more confident than ever of my place in a room. Empathizing with the Hawaiian people has made me increasingly culturally aware, and I think this understanding and respect for other cultures is crucial in a business setting. In addition, this project helped me to craft a sense of independence. Upon coming to Ohio State, it was comforting to know that I had the safety net of my home in Cincinnati a mere hour and a half away. Due to this, orchestrating my own project will be a type of independence that I have yet to experience in my life. I know this STEP project has allowed me to transform into someone who is able to stand firmly with her own decisions and succeed in any environment that comes my way.
What events, interactions, relationships, or activities during your STEP Signature Project led to the change/transformation that you discussed in #2, and how did those affect you? Write three or four paragraphs describing the key aspects of your experiences completing your STEP Signature Project that led to this change/transformation.
If I were to divide my STEP project into two components aiding my transformation into a more empathetic, confident, and independent person, it is clear what those two things would be. The first would be the foundation of my STEP project, meaning the cultural activities that I engaged in. The second, and most important, would be the people that I spoke with. The people themselves were at the core of my understanding of Polynesian culture.
I'll start with the foundation—some of the most important activities that we engaged in include visiting the Pearl Harbor monument, touring Iolani palace, hearing about the history of the island in a snorkeling outing, and participating in a traditional Hawaiian luau. All of these activities together helped to form the larger picture of Hawaiian culture and enabled my transformation into a more confident, independent, and understanding individual. It was helpful to learn about Hawaiian culture while also understanding the history of the island, such as Pearl Harbor, that continues to affect Oahu today.
Snorkeling was the most impactful experience for many reasons. Throughout the trip, Natives we spoke with kept telling us about the importance of water in Hawaiian culture. I didn't get it at first…, everyone has water, right? It's not till you experience it for yourself that you realize how truly engulfed by water Oahu really is. On my plane ride to Oahu, a woman from the island told me not to worry about rainy weather while I was there, because 'rain is a blessing to the Hawaiian people.' This sentiment was echoed on our snorkeling expedition. The expedition tour guide really helped ease my nerves as she explained the importance of water to the islanders and told us that long-ago Hawaiian gods had brought water to the island to support all of its living creatures. Hearing her admiration for the water helped to ease my nerves. This brings me to the second reason that this experience was so impactful–and definitely the most challenging for me. I am terrified of anything having to do with the ocean—sharks, rip currents, and anything else that could be lurking out there. Before we got in the water, she told us of Ka'ena Point, which we could see from off of the boat. This point overlooks the Eastern coast of Oahu and is where the soul leaves the body over the water when someone dies. Hearing the Hawaiian people's tremendous adoration for the water made me more comfortable and confident in my decision to enter. Beyond this experience, it was obvious that surfing is a way of life in Hawaii. It was helpful to juxtapose the importance of Hawaiian culture with the other people who would call the island home. The Pearl Harbor Monument was very helpful in understanding the racial diversity on the island today and the challengers faced by mainlanders.
Though cultural activities helped us to immerse ourselves into Hawaiian culture and to appreciate it, nothing could compare the benefit reaped in speaking with the people. It was truly a 'people project.' The most important part of this project that contributed toward my development into a more empathetic person were my conversations with native islanders, tourists, businesspeople, and college students alike. I was only able to gain so much from these conversations by applying what I had learned in my anthropology class from the previous semester. In anthropology, we learned of three question types to help produce meaningful questions:
1) Seeing Big' Seeing big requires a holistic perspective. This means taking into account the world view, social structure, and economics behind a culture that form its structure. It is important to acknowledge how these three components work together.
2)'Seeing Small'This means realizing not only what is being said, but also who is saying it, who it is being said to, how they are saying it, and also why they are saying it. The goal with seeing small is to understand another persons culture through THEIR worldview, hence engaging with the mindset of cultural relativism.
3) 'Seeing it all'This last step requires us to cut ourselves some slack, since we can never fully see through the lease of someone else. 'Seeing it all' requires practicing a cycle of communication, thoughtfulness, and empathy. Wesch's belief is that communication with others allows us to feel empathy toward another culture. When we feel empathy, we then feel encouraged to revise our previous conceptions, hence, thoughtfulness.
Although everyone had interesting and moving stories to tell, 'Uncle Ben' was the one I found to be most impactful. By the end of our hour-long conversation, he had his greatest struggles and his fears for future generations. He had invited me and Katie to come stay at his ranch the next time we were in Hawaii and welcomed our project with open arms. He did this all in the setting of a McDonalds. Ben told authentic, heart-wrenching, and eye-opening stories of his 70 years in Hawaii. I think this really allowed Katie and I to shed any ethnocentric perspectives we were carrying about what we thought Hawaii was. From the start of this project, I pictured Hawaii being full of happy citizens engaging in what Uncle Ben calls the 'aloha spirit.' Media shows you the glamour of beach homes and 5-star resorts. They don't tell you about the homeless community on the beach that was cropped out of the photo. They fail again and again to mention the crippling poverty; cities of tents that line the beaches, homes shackled with locks and 'beware of dog' signs, and home prices in what's considered the 'poor' part of town that still manage to soar past $600,000. Ben's story is alarming, certainly. But unique? Not so much. He tells us that Hawaiian homes wrongfully evicted him from his home and sold it to someone he thought was a friend of his. He says that this is happening to Hawaiians all over the island, and that the younger generation is now having to move to the mainland because wealthy outsiders are buying up all the land and making housing unattainable to people with ancestral roots in Hawaii. I think Ben's situation was a good example of us being able to engage in cultural relativism. Ben's story made me feel for the Hawaiian people and their struggles. It wasn't difficult to acknowledge his point of view, however, as his situation seems like something that is repeated all over the world. Areas that used to be have affordable housing and were cultural hubs are now being gentrified to make room for the wealthy and push out the lower class. Although Ben's story isn't joyful, it almost feels like deja vu. I've heard this before—much closer to home.
'Uncle Ben' is the first stranger we spoke with in Oahu
4. Why is this change/transformation significant or valuable for your life? Write one or two paragraphs discussing why this change or development matters and/or relates to your academic, personal, and/or professional goals and future plans.
My STEP project, 'Humans of Oahu,' taught me to identify a level of empathy and confidence in myself that I wasn't aware existed. I was helped tremendously with my skills as a marketing major with an intended career path in sales; many times, I approached stranger after stranger only to be shot down. More importantly, I had some very deep conversations, and gained a greater respect for other cultures that will no doubt help me in my understanding of business ethics. When I think about my future in Marketing and sales, I feel very encouraged to be socially aware in my marketing. If there's one thing I realized in Hawaii, it's that the signs advertising luxury spas often come at the cost of buying up the land of native islanders. When I spoke with different individuals in Hawaii, it helped me to cue in on my greatest strengths as well as my greatest insecurities. I was very timid with the first person we spoke to. I can see now in my Sales internship that the way I have approached people has changed and I am much less shy. This project was deeply satisfying to my persona as a whole. When I think of college and work, I sometimes imagine myself running around in a scramble trying to get everything done. With grades and deadlines approaching, there is little time to think about that person caught in the rain without an umbrella, or the woman sleeping on the side of the sidewalk. Of course, anyone would notice these things. But most often subliminally—any thoughts you have don't come to fruition. This project encouraged me to engage with different types of people that included tourists, native Islanders, transplants, and college students alike. More than anything it brought the realization that these are people with problems just like us.

Canadian PM: Russia Wasn't 'Positive Partner' In Minsk Cease-Fire Deal
July 11, 2016 11:52 GMT
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko (left) talks with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during a signing ceremony for a trade deal, in Kyiv on July 11.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Russia has not been a "positive partner" as regards its obligations in international efforts to end a Moscow-backed separatist conflict in eastern Ukraine.
Speaking in Kyiv on July 11, Trudeau said "it is obvious that Ukraine has made some extremely important and difficult steps in parliament and in their institutions to live up to their responsibilities on [the] Minsk [cease-fire agreement]."
"And it's also clear that [in terms of] the security side of the Minsk implementation, Russia has not been a positive partner," Trudeau said.
Trudeau, who is in Kyiv on a two-day official visit, pledged $13 million in new humanitarian assistance to Ukraine.He also announced an increase in the number of Canadian observers for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in eastern Ukraine.
During Trudeau's visit to Kyiv, Ukraine and Canada formally signed a free trade agreement.
Negotiations for the deal were concluded last year and the agreement needs to be ratified by both the countries' parliaments before it can come into force.

My friend Naru im'ed me to let me know that C was in the lucky chair at Aoharu. Do you have any idea how rare it is for a C like me to get to tp in and rescue a lucky chair party from a long wait? Most lucky chair parties have 3 to 4 C's all waiting their chance. What in the word does that have to do with this picture? Simply that I won a fabulous pair of shoes that made me think of this dress and pull it out of my closet. It's called the Black Widow dress and that made me think of cemetaries which leads us full circle and back to the land inbetween and its fabulous cemetary.
Did I mention the shoes were free? Did I mention they are adorable? Black leather with merlot velvet bows that are a perfect color match to the few, but vital touches of red that bring the Black Widow to life.
Are the textures on the skirt and the shoes stunning? My only quibble is that my neck and spine attachment points were used, leaving nothing for a necklace. i could have argued and shifted something around, but really thought the net shawl provided enough focus on the face as it is.
Now, if you ever find yourself in the land inbetween – be sure to grab a shovel and dig up a few of the graves. Tremendous works of art are secreted away in these graves.

A road map for better communities.
Doña Ana County is home to 37 colonia communities. According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), a colonia is a rural community or neighborhood located within 150 miles of the U.S./Mexican border that often lacks adequate infrastructure and other basic services. It is estimated that there are 138 colonias in the State of New Mexico; Doña Ana County is home to more than 25% of those colonias. These communities and neighborhoods may lack many of the basic necessities most people take for granted, such as paved roads, sanitary sewer services, and safe affordable housing. The lack of these basic necessities makes life in colonias more challenging; daily life and activities such as getting to work or school, or buying groceries can become much more difficult without proper roads and community services.
Doña Ana County is comprised of many distinct and culturally rich communities. Each community and colonia is proud of their community identity, history and values. For this reason, a more flexible planning approach is necessary to accommodate the various concerns, interest and priorities of each community, while aligning to possible funding strategies and as a result creating community partnerships.
For planning purposes, Doña Ana County has been grouped into four (4) major planning areas and nine (9) sub-planning areas. These planning areas will make the development of the plans more efficient by aligning communities with shared common challenges and opportunities. These planning areas will also allow regional planning to be more efficient by requiring nine (9) sub-area plans for the entire County rather than thirty-seven (37) separate plans.

Today is my last day at my present job which I have been in for the last 7 years ever since I came over to Dubai sometime in late 2007, working with people in this organisation has taken up quite a large portion of my time which is obvious and I will miss the time I use to spend and the interactions I had with the folks.
I really like what I do and I am fairly good at it.. maybe this time off can be a well deserved break after all those years of working as opposed to taking annual vacations when the time arrives. At this point in time I dont really have any plans with regards to my professional carrer but hoping something will work out soon!
I think they have planned a "surprise" for me towards the end of the day which isnt really a surprise as it is done for everyone who leaves, it would be a surprise if they didnt do it for me! :-) ... Anyway I dont really have any famous last words just that I am going to miss getting up early morning and driving to work for some days in the future and maybe I can use this time to do something constructive!

All MMORPG: Maxconsole Mobile Other Retro PC General PC / Mobile / Retro Gaming News and Discussion PC Gaming World
Long-awaited Action RPG Children of Morta Lands on PCs Today!
Discussion in 'PC Gaming World' started by Paul Smart, Sep 3, 2019.

Stand together with this extraordinary family of heroes
Developer Dead Mage and Publisher 11 bit studios are excited to announce that Children of Morta has launched today for PC after five years of creative development. Available now for $21.99 USD (21,99€) players can pick up the game on Steam, GOG.com, Humble Store, Green Man Gaming, and others.
The console version will debut next month on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch launching on October 15th. This pixel-art painted RPG with vigorous action tells a remarkable story, not about one warrior, but a family of heroes - the Bergsons - and their bonds of love, courage, and sacrifice.
Children of Morta | OUT NOW on PC!
Children of Morta sets its story in a distant land but copes with themes closer to our daily lives than one would expect. It's a tale of simple emotions that we all know and value more than we sometimes dare to admit: love and hope, longing and uncertainty, and the loss and sacrifice we are willing to make to save the ones we care the most for. The rogue-lite action plays an important role in the gameplay, but Children of Morta is not a story about saving the universe. It's a story about a valiant family standing together while the world around them is being devoured by darkness.
Children of Morta is about:
FAMILY TIES as the Bergsons strengthen them and themselves when fighting.
INHERITED TALENTS as each family member has different backgrounds and expertise, shaping them into a diverse group of Guardians.
ANCESTRAL WISDOM of Grandma Margaret and Uncle Ben - the seer and blacksmith of the family. They upgrade the family's gear and boost main attributes.
MYSTICAL MOUNTAIN as a place full of history, legends, and magic. Delve into the mountain itself and unravel the mysteries inside.
AN EVER-CHANGING WORLD as the touch of corruption makes every forest, dungeon, or temple different each time you explore and skirmish through them.
A UNIQUE ART STYLE that is a combination of hand-painted pixel art and frame-by-frame animations paired with modern lighting techniques.

Subject: Stress Tests and GM Bankruptcy Hang Over GMAC As it Reports $675 Million Loss

Stress Tests and GM Bankruptcy Hang Over GMAC As it Reports $675 Million Loss
By Don Miller, Contributing Writer, Money Morning • May 5, 2009
By Don Miller
Auto and mortgage lender GMAC LLC (NYSE: GKM) reported a first-quarter loss of $675 million and now faces further pressure from bank "stress tests" and freefalling sales volumes that may push its former parent General Motors Corp. (NYSE: GM) into bankruptcy.
GMAC is one of the 19 lenders waiting for results of the government's "stress test," designed to determine which firms need additional capital to weather a deep recession. Results are due Thursday, and some analysts believe GMAC will be one of the banks ordered to find more capital within six months.
Despite receiving a $6 billion government bailout in December, GMAC reported net losses increased to $675 million from $589 million a year earlier, as the Detroit-based company set aside 78% more for loan losses than a year earlier.
"The effects of a soft economy and weaker credit performance on legacy assets continued to put pressure on GMAC's financial performance," Chief Executive Officer Alvaro de Molina said in a statement.
GMAC's auto finance business notched a profit of $225 million, while the mortgage division, which includes Residential Capital LLC (ResCap), lost $125 million. An earlier gain of $900 million was wiped off the books after the company eliminated mortgage debt and revalued some assets.
The first-quarter loss makes six losses out of the last seven quarters for GMAC. The company had reported five straight losses before breaking the string in the fourth quarter of 2008 on gains from a debt swap.
When GMAC became a bank holding company in December in order to tap federal bailout funds, Cerberus Capital Management LP was forced to relinquish most of its 51% controlling interest. GM, which owned 49% of the lender before the bailout, is also giving up its stake and putting it in a trust.
GMAC agreed to provide financing for Chrysler customers and dealers after the automaker filed for bankruptcy protection last week. GMAC is the main provider of financing to buyers of GM vehicles. Cerberus led a buyout of Chrysler in 2007.
In a press briefing on the day of the Chrysler bankruptcy filing, a White House official said GMAC would receive the "financial support necessary" to expand after agreeing to handle Chrysler's new loans.
Nevertheless, GMAC "faces challenges if GM files for bankruptcy," Gimme Credit LLC analyst Kathleen Shanley wrote in a May 1 report to investors, according to Bloomberg News. And while the Chrysler deal presents few risks for GMAC, she recommends selling the company's bonds.
The company's bonds rallied this year after the government said GMAC's auto financing arm is critical to the survival of GM and Chrysler. GMAC said today (Tuesday) in a presentation on its Web site that a GM bankruptcy wouldn't trigger its own filing.
But Pete Hastings, a fixed-income analyst at Morgan Keegan & Co. in Memphis, Tenn., told Bloomberg that a potential GM filing is a concern because it would have a "depressing effect on revenues."
"The end markets are still troubled and the economy is still tough," Hastings said.
GMAC said in April it would resume making car and truck loans to subprime borrowers to boost sales at GM, and that ResCap was hiring 1,000 people to handle a surge in refinancings and jumbo loans.
But GMAC has also said substantial doubt remains about ResCap's ability to continue operating, citing deteriorating credit and mortgage markets, liquidity and capital.
GMAC Reports $675 Million Loss as Loan Defaults Rise
Market Moves Will Remain on Hold Until Bank Stress Test Results Are Released Thursday
