Code Vein – Review
Eira Skovlund October 11, 2019
Name: Code Vein
Developer: Bandai Namco
Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Reviewed on: PlayStation 4 Pro
Acquired: A copy of this game was provided by a publisher for review purpose
Bloodborne is one of the best games I've ever played, hands down. Since I first played it in 2015 I've become a huge fan of the SoulsBorne games. Code Vein claims to be just that, a SoulsBorne(esque) with a mix of anime-like story and look, and more focus on the multiplayer part. How does it compare to FromSoftware's masterpiece of a series? Time to find out!
Code Vein's story does start out very confusing, at least for my brain. It starts out quite cliché, with your character waking up without any memories, together with a very busty girl who claims to be your companion. You quickly learn that you are a so-called Revenant, an undead who feeds on blood.
After a quick "tutorial" dungeon you get together with a band of allies who sense that you are someone special, that can help the world become a better place for everyone. And they send you out and about on quests to both save the world, and find out what is happening and how the Lost came to be.
In addition, there are a lot of side stories, which focus on the background of the other characters in the game. In a, quite weird, dream-like sequence you're transported to a pathway where you are able to look back on that character's memories and life-changing happenings. I did actually really like it, and it did break up the flow a little bit, with very calm, and often serene, scenes right after a major battle.
The graphics in Code Vein are based on cel-shading. Or at least some sort of that modeling type. Looking like a mix of a modern post-apocalyptic SoulsBorne and Valkyria Chronicles 4. I very much liked the way the characters were modeled, as they all had a similar, yet unique look to them. And talking about characters, holy moly, the character creator in Code Vein is simply amazing. As usual, I fell for the crazy hair colors and goth makeup, and I ended up looking like Chloe Price… But I'm a serious (somewhat at least) game reviewer and decided to see how many different looking characters I could make, and they all came out very different, yet they all seemed to fit into the world.
The sound design too is very good. And although I obviously can't say for certain what kind of noises ghouls and "Lost" would make in real life, they seem fitting in the game's setting. The noises, sounds and creeks the game world itself makes also feels very fitting and when you sneak around ruins and are getting lost, it's good to be able to for example hear where the river you've been following is (like, on the left, right, above, below, etc.), which allows for not only your eyes to be a way to explore the map.
There's one thing I didn't like though, the re-use of enemies. Sure, I get that these Lost would look similar, but I wish there was some form of development as you progressed in the world. Why the first enemies you meet are exactly like the ones near the end is a question I've yet to find a good answer to.
If you've played a SoulsBorne game before, you know what to expect from Code Vein. As an action-RPG, with a focus on difficult bosses and finding new weapons, armor and Blood Codes, Code Vein has very good gameplay to it. Although the leveling system, which is accessed by resting at Mistles, is inferior to the one in the SoulsBorne games (more on that below), the Blood Codes was a cool feature to play around with. Unlike the SoulsBorne games, Code Vein focuses a lot of constantly having a partner, and although the game is playable all alone, it is definitely advisable to have a companion, either AI or a real one.
Instead of having points of dexterity, stamina, etc. Code Vein allows players to constantly change up their stats by changing between different Blood Codes. I do not know exactly how many there are. In my playthrough, I've found 21 of them, while I've seen that other reviewers have claimed to get more than 30. Anyhow, this allows for several playstyles in each playthrough. Say that you're stuck on a boss, you can then change up your Blood Code in order to get a different angle of attack. Although there are loads of different Blood Codes in Code Vein they all pretty much come down to three different playstyles – tanking, magic and rogue. I ended up using one of each type in order to get through the different bosses but mainly played the tank-style.
Unfortunately, I had one quite big issue with the gameplay in Code Vein. The lack of feedback when hitting enemies. There's no real difference in light vs heavy attacks, other than the enemy's health going down a bit more with the heavy attacks, and the attack speed dropping quite a lot. The enemies never get pushed back or staggered, even when hit with a weapon made from a freaking concrete pillar(!). I also found the AI companions to be overly aggressive, and constantly finding themselves close to death, since they never dodged or learned our enemies' attack pattern.
This section is where I was very pleasantly surprised by Code Vein – although the default controls were not to my liking, the customizability more than made up for that first impression. Almost every single button can be programmed to your liking (there are a few "rules" to play by, but it's natural for those buttons this applies to, to be in the area which the game demands them to be). In my case, I wanted to go for a SoulsBorne-like control schematic, with R1/R2 being light/heavy-attacks respectively.
I really just have one complaint, which is partially controls, partially gameplay – the fact that my character was a bit slow to act to the input from the controller. It's not a massive delay, but enough for me to die quite a few times because my character didn't evade quick enough once I pressed the button.
Replay Value
As you've probably realized by now, I am comparing Code Vein to the SoulsBorne games, since they are the benchmark in the genre. In the SoulsBorne universe, you could have several playthroughs with different character builds with leveling up individual stats, Code Vein doesn't allow for leveling up stats individually, instead, it levels up health, etc. In order to have different play styles, you instead have Blood Codes. Here you can have codes that allow for heavy stamina usage or more ranged "magic" builds. Although I do prefer the SoulsBorne way of making replay value, I will say that Code Vein's way to do it was surprisingly effective and cool.
You can check out our review policy right here if you wonder how we set our scores.
Story - 9/10
Graphics - 8/10
Gameplay - 8/10
Controls - 9/10
Replay Value - 7/10
All in all, I must say that Code Vein is a very good game. The story is interesting, albeit a bit difficult to understand at first. The game looks great, with a character creator that comes second to none. The gameplay is fun, if not perfect, and the controls are really good too. I do wish the developers had gone for a more Souls-like leveling system, and the friendly AI definitely needs some work. In addition, I do think there should be more diversity among the types and looks of the enemies.
That being said, I had loads of fun during my playthrough, and I will most definitely visit again. If you are into the SoulsBorne games already, then I can safely advise you to try Code Vein as well. I do suggest newcomers to the genre to play Bloodborne first though, as it is a bit easier to get into the type of fighting there, before sitting down with this.

"Oregon Loves New York" by Sally Bourrie Now on Amazon
SILVER SPRING, Md., Sept. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Oregon Loves New York: A Story of American Unity After 9/11 is now available on Amazon and at global retailers through IngramSpark! It's the kind of story we need right now, America at its best.
Based on over 100 interviews, memoirs and hundreds of news articles as well as personal experience, and with nearly 200 color photos, Oregon Loves New York documents the Flight for Freedom, a moment when Americans came together.
Cover: Oregon Loves New York: A Story of American Unity After 9/11
Portland, Oregon Mayor Vera Katz hugs a New Yorker at the 2001 Columbus Day Parade.
Over Columbus Day weekend, three weeks after the 9/11 attacks, 1,000 courageous Oregonians led by Portland Mayor Vera Katz took 62 flights through 12 airports to New York City to show the terrorists they had not shut down American life and to boost the city's struggling economy. What they found were fellow Americans who needed more than money, they needed their hearts.
"The symbolic commitment to be a part of the recovery of New York from these horrible attacks meant a great deal to all New Yorkers and sent a very positive message to the entire nation," said former New York Governor George Pataki. "The Flight for Freedom demonstrated that people from 3,000 miles across the continent felt comfortable and safe in the streets, and that message got out in the rest of the country."
The Oregonians marched in the Columbus Day Parade, rang the New York Stock Exchange opening bell, held a memorial service at Union Square, appeared on Good Morning America, spoke at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine's Blessing of the Animals, sponsored a Chinatown banquet for 700, and other activities.
Easy to spot in T-shirts and buttons with two Douglas firs and "Oregon Loves New York," Freedom Fliers were stopped, hugged, and thanked by raw, shell-shocked New Yorkers. Oregonians embraced them, listened to their 9/11 stories, and were called to be present in more ways than they could have anticipated.
No other community brought its citizens together in a similar effort.
The Flight for Freedom was a selfless, volunteer effort. Packages started at $379 for airfare and two nights at the Waldorf–Astoria hotel.
Author Sally Ruth Bourrie covered the Flight for Freedom for the Chicago Tribune and The Boston Globe. Learn more at https://sallybourrie.com and https://oregonlovesnewyork.com.
"Oregonians of a previous age, they walked 3,000 miles to go there, despite hardships and some fear that our forebears had. Oregonians of our time showed courage to board airplanes at a time of severe restriction and insecurity and showed with their wallets and their shoe leather that hearts were one with New Yorkers.
"This was a bright, shining moment for Oregon." – Former Oregon Senator Gordon H. Smith
"Something powerful happened in New York. We had a rare opportunity to experience the healing power of human-to-human contact and to honor our highest nature." – Jan Woodruff, Portland State University, Freedom Flier

Home Running & Athletics News Great Britain
And the fell winner is…
by Ally Beaven November 22, 2020

Each year the Fell Runner's Association gives out the Long Distance Award. Broken author Ally Beaven breaks down one of the hardest award decisions of all time…probably.
(Winners announced at the bottom of article if you're in a rush).
Each year the Fell Runner's Association gives out the Long Distance Award. It is given to a UK resident runner for one or more long distance running achievements in mountainous terrain, (primarily on foot though some cycling, kayaking or climbing is acceptable) in the UK or overseas. Race performances are not considered.
The list of winners is full of the kinds of things you'd expect, 24 hour records, the Munros, the Wainwrights, but it has also been awarded for less obvious stuff; Simon Jenkins and Martin Moran's continuous traverse of the 4000m peaks in the Alps, Ken Taylor's Bob Graham completion at the age of 71.
The first winner
It was first awarded in 1987 to Martin Stone for a trio of runs; the 24 Munro record, the Scottish 4000s and a mid-winter Bob Graham, all solo and unsupported.
"I was never a great fell racer," says Martin. "I got some reasonable results on things like Wasdale, Langdale, mountain marathons, but actually I wasn't that quick. So to have found my niche and then get some recognition for it was rather nice."
Soon after, Martin was asked if he would like to take charge of the award, "on the basis that I probably wouldn't ever get it again", and he's been running the show ever since. Each year, soon after the 30th September deadline, he draws up a shortlist and distributes it to the voting panel.
"Every time somebody wins the award, they go onto the panel," explains Martin, "so it's still growing. It's grown from about 20 to 28."
There are no photos of Finlay Wild in action on his Charlie Ramsay Round because he just buggered off and did it solo, as he's truly made of girders. Photo: Pete Bland Sports.
Who's going after it?
One quirk of the Long Distance Award is that it isn't something that anyone sets out to win.
"I guess it's never in anyone's mind that they're doing it because they want to win the award," says Stephen Pyke, the only three time recipient. "They're doing it because they've set themself a challenge or they want to break someone's record , but come the end of the year, you get the call or the email from Martin, it's a big honour really."
Long distance hill running is a small world within a small world, so the award has always been a low key affair. Not exactly prestigious, but all the more meaningful to those who receive it because it is awarded by their peers and places them among their heroes.
"Winning the award was a huge honour for me." Jasmin Paris, 3 Big Round records, 2016. "Arguably greater than any race win could be, as it was based on the collective decision of so many of my own running heroes and inspirations."
A panel of people who know what they're talking about
Paul Tierney, the most recent addition to the panel after receiving the award for last year's Wainwrights record, says similar. "When I first got into the sport, I was reading books like Feet in the Clouds, Wild Trails to Far Horizons, and it was this golden age of record attempts and personal challenges.
There wasn't the same wealth of races there is now. Reading books like that, you learn all about who the proper legends are and then to see some of them win that prize and your name is on the thing as well, it gives you a really nice feeling."
In 2020, for the first time, the information Martin Stone sent out included an article from each of the nominees, a couple of pages written for The Fellrunner magazine, giving details of their run.
This year has been an exceptional one (someone should write a book about it – Ed.), the shortlist swelling from the usual 4 or 5 runners to 11, with a dozen more solid candidates failing to make the cut and several runs soon after the deadline, like George Foster's second fastest Bob Graham, that would have been very strong contenders.
These are the nominees, alphabetically by first name:
Sasha Chepelin – 24 hour Munro record
Beth Pascall – Bob Graham Round record
Carol Morgan – Lakeland 24 Hour Record
Damian Hall – Pennine Way record and winter Paddy Buckley Round record
Donnie Campbell – Munro Round record
Finlay Wild – Ramsay's Round record
Howard Dracup – Steve Parr Round record
John Kelly – Pennine Way Record and Grand Round
Kim Collison – Lakeland 24 Hour Record and winter Bob Graham Round record
Matthew Roberts – Paddy Buckley Round record
Sabrina Verjee – Pennine Way record

Not an easy decision in 2020
This incredible depth means that making a well informed choice is a time consuming business, though most relish the responsibility. Among them, Manny Gorman, Corbett Round 2009.
"I really look forward to it. You get that email from Martin and you know you've got your night's reading ahead of you. I sit down with a dram or a beer and go through them. This year, there were so many candidates, it was ridiculous. A whole bottle of whisky and a barrel of home brew. I read all of those reports 3 times and some of them 4 or 5 times. I had real trouble narrowing it down."
Members of the panel have free rein in their decision making, most alluding to some balance of physical difficulty, logistics, style, aesthetics of the route, but each weighing these things differently according to taste; one may be drawn to the highest level of athleticism while another values novelty and creativity.
For those in difficulty, Martin Stone provides a list of weighted criteria to help guide their decision making, though he thinks only about half of the panel uses it.
So who do you go for?
Talking to usually effusive members of the panel, they suddenly become coy when asked about their decision making process, for obvious reasons.
Paul Tierney again. "Well, it's the long distance award so obviously. . .very long distances are essential. . ." Woah, slow down Paul, I need to write that down. Eventually, he tires of talking in circles. "I can tell you who I voted for, would that make it easier? I voted for REDACTED in the end but I really could have voted for any of them."
In the cosy confines of the long distance world, the panel's job is made even harder by a web of potential conflicts of interest. Several are this year asked to consider runs that broke their own records, others played a part in supporting one or more of the nominees. More generally, it's impossible for runners' reputations not to precede them.
"Certainly in that list there are people who for years have stood out to me as being very, very impressive," says Paul Tierney.
"Knowing the individual and what they've done before has to colour your thoughts a little bit. Does that make me a fucking cheat? I did try and just base it on what they actually did."
Kim Collison was just one of the runners photographed by Steve Ashworth in 2020, who probably could have been nominated for his own cumulative time on the fells this year. Photo: Steve Ashworth Media
No worthy winner?
The panel do have the option of voting for No Worthy Winner if they feel that there are no appropriate candidates. The award has been withheld twice, in 2002 and 2012.
"I really bugged to see that," says Manny. "If I'd thought that was the case I'd have nipped out and done something for a week. I'd have ran coast to coast on my hands or something."
It is unlikely that that will be the case this year. "I did put it on the notes this time," Martin says, "but obviously it's completely irrelevant."
One outright winner, but plenty of deserving silver medals
There will be no runaway winner this year. But although the voting will be split, there's a concensus among the panel not only that the winner of the Long Distance Award in 2020 will be a deserving one, but that a number of equally deserving contenders will be missing out.
Martin Stone, the man at the helm, feels this more keenly than most.
"After it's all over there needs to be some empathetic writing saying what a challenging year it's been for the panel and what fantastic things all these people have done. Everybody should be proud, in any normal year any one of them would have been a fantastic winner. I think the person who wins will be almost like a representative of everyone who's done great things this summer."
***The 2020 Long Distance Award is to be shared between John Kelly and Donnie Campbell***
Both athletes received twice as many votes as any other nominee and the panel clearly felt that 2020 was the year to honour the biggest and most committing adventures.
This is the first time since 1989 that 2 runners who were not running together have shared the award. On that occasion is was shared between Helene Diamantides and Mike Hartley for records on the three Big Rounds and the Pennine Way record respectively.
Did you know that Ally Beaven has written a book about all these bloody records being broken this year? It would probably make an excellent Christmas present for all your friends and family, if you're the kind of person who likes being nice.

Take a look at this photo, ostensibly dated 1985 from the Chicago Tribune, depicting a mall that (in current times) is about to get razed and redeveloped.
Let?s see, in 1985, I would?ve been 7 or 8 years old.
Holy hell! Did things really look that? old, back then? I mean, the cars, the signs? they look so? well, OLD! I would?ve easily pegged this image as being early 70s if I had not been told of the date. In fact part of me still has doubts!
23 years down the road, am I gonna look at photos I took of my car recently and think ?DAMN! I owned THAT old jalopy?!?
Maybe it?s just that the photo was shot in black and white that makes it appear so dated. I mean, Christ, when did people finally get it that shooting in color isn?t so bad, particularly for historical preservation purposes?


"Nasi chłopcy i nasze dziewczynki."
Translation:Our boys and our girls.
Would a Polish speaker always use this construction -- a separate description for each noun -- or is this just a learning example? That is, would a Polish speaker ever be able to say something like "nasi chłopcy i dziewczynki" (our boys and girls) ? .
At least in russian both forms are acceptable, so I suggest in Polish. But I would like to know it for sure.
Why is this described as "plural masculine" (nasi) vs "plural" (nasze)? Not "plural masculine" and "plural feminine"? Or "plural masculine" and "plural feminine and neuter"?
There are two possible genders in plural: masculine personal and everything else. 'Nasi' is the masculine personal form, meaning it can only be applied to masculine nouns which describe people (e.g. 'nasi chłopcy' - our boys, 'nasi ludzie' - our people - even though the group of people may contain women, 'człowiek' is a masculine noun).
Everything else goes with 'nasze', e.g. 'nasze psy' - our dogs (even though 'pies' is masculine it is not personal), 'nasze dziewczyny' - our girls, 'nasze krzesła' - our chairs etc.
It's not z gone, it's sz changing to ś. (s before "i" always sounds like "s"). Those are very different sounds in Polish, but learners tend to have trouble with hearing the difference.
How do you pronounce "ń" ?

These three stocks fell below their worst levels of the year Monday. Find out why.
Stocks held up reasonably well on Monday, with Nasdaq managing to gain slightly even as the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrials eased lower. All in all, the number of stocks hitting new yearly highs greatly outnumbered those reaching new lows for the year. But there were still a few stocks plumbing new depths, and among them were bebe stores (NASDAQ:BEBE), Tower Group International (UNKNOWN:TWGP.DL), and Rayonier (NYSE:RYN).
For bebe stores, today's 3% decline came after the retailer said after the market's close on Friday that it would abandon its lower-scale 2b concept, closing its 16 remaining stores in the 2b chain and focusing instead on trying to improve results at its namesake bebe business. As part of a broader restructuring, bebe stores will reduce its employee count in order to cut costs more generally, with 9% of the company's non-store corporate and field management staff expected to be affected by the move. Interim CEO Jim Wiggett hopes that the dual moves will put bebe in a better position financially to handle a tough retail environment, but extensive competition in the retail space will force bebe to work hard in order to convince investors that the stock's 50% plunge just since April represents a buying opportunity rather than a value trap.
Tower Group International fell another 11%, bringing its total losses over the past year to roughly more than 90%. The insurance and reinsurance specialist has been under pressure financially for a long time, and even though the company agreed to an acquisition from ACP Re at $2.50 per share, shareholders are worried that the proposed deal won't come to fruition. One concern that some have is that an "insolvency event" as defined under the parties' merger agreement might give ACP an out to cancel the deal or negotiate another price reduction. Meanwhile, regulators are scrutinizing Tower Group's business to ensure that policyholders are protected, and their actions only complicate the volatile situation.
Rayonier's share price plunged about 27% from Friday's levels, but investors shouldn't panic about the move. The timber company's plan to spin off shares of Rayonier Advanced Materials was completed today, and so the share price going forward now reflects Rayonier's remaining core business after the spinoff. Long-time shareholders will receive one share of Rayonier Advanced Materials for every three Rayonier shares they owned before the spinoff, and the new company will contain Rayonier's performance-fibers business while Rayonier holds onto its forest resources and real-estate businesses. Rayonier did get downgraded today, but the real economic impact for shareholders was far less than the big share-price drop would suggest.

In our society today, a man's love and commitment is measured by the size of the diamond he places on his beloved's finger. Diamonds are said to represent true love, faithfulness, and the strength of your relationship. They are also believed to be the rarest of all gemstones. The reality is in fact significantly less romantic.
But the truth behind this myth is less than romantic, the 4 minute video takes us through the history of the engagement ring, a material good that so many of us now both associate and expect as a "symbol of love." The video shows us how this now commonly accepted viewpoint was molded into all of us by nothing more than an advertising campaign by the diamond company De Beers.

Q: How to use + operator of a base class then return derived class? I have two classes. The base class, called String stores a const char* and the lenght of it, len. The derived class, called UString should has to manage an upperCase static boolean variable. If this is true the string in ostream has to be full uppercase. (this is a university task)
Where I have the problem (test file):
UString a("Hello ");
UString b("string");
UString c;
c = a + b;

The result should be: Hello String, but I get only Hello.
The important functions and operators in the base class for this task (these are provided by the teacher):
String& String::operator=(const String& rhs_s) {
    if (this != &rhs_s) {
        delete[] pData;
        len = rhs_s.len;
        pData = new char[len+1];
        strcpy(pData, rhs_s.pData);
    }
    return *this;
}

String String::operator+(const String& rhs_s) const {
    String temp;
    temp.len = len + rhs_s.len;
    delete []temp.pData;
    temp.pData = new char[temp.len+1];
    strcpy(temp.pData, pData);
    strcat(temp.pData, rhs_s.pData);
    return temp;
}

String operator+(char rhs_c) const { return *this + String(rhs_c);}

And how I tried to use them in UString class (here might be the problem somewhere):
UString& UString::operator=(const UString &s)
{
    String::operator=(s);
    return *this;
}

UString& UString::operator=(char s)
{
    String x(s);
    String::operator=(x);
    return *this;
}

UString& UString::operator=(String const &s)
{
    String::operator=(s);
    return *this;
}

UString UString::operator+(const UString& rhs_s) const {
    String::operator+(rhs_s);
    return this;
}

UString& UString::operator+(char s)
{
    String::operator+(UString(s));
    return *this;
}

UString UString::operator+(const String &s) const{
    String::operator+(s);
    return this;
}

All of the other functions and consturctors are working fine (according to the test).
Actually none of the plus operators are good :(

A: Your
UString& UString::operator=(String const &s)

implementation first adds two strings, and then throws away the result, as the result is a temporary value:
String::operator+(rhs_s);

When you change it into
  UString UString::operator+(const UString& rhs_s) {
    return UString(String::operator+(rhs_s));
  }

it will return the result. To make this work, you need a constructor that takes a String as input, e.g.:
  UString UString::operator+(const UString& rhs_s) {
    return UString(String::operator+(rhs_s));
  }

The Bahamian health ministry said helicopters and boats are on the way to help people in affected areas, though officials warned of delays because of severe flooding and limited access. (AP Photo/Gonzalo Gaudenzi)
The Latest: US military aircrafts to deliver aid to Bahamas
WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) — The Latest on Hurricane Dorian (all times local):
Florida U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio says the U.S. government-run aid agency has formally requested that the Department of Defense provide heavy-lift aerial support to bring in desperately needed aid to the Abaco islands in the Bahamas.
Rubio tweeted Friday that their first task will be finding an open airfield.
Earlier Friday, Rubio and Sen. Rick Scott flew with the U.S. Coast Guard to the Bahamas Friday along with Gov. Ron DeSantis to look at the damage.
Rubio praised private relief efforts, but said only military transportation had the capability to deliver the massive amounts of water, food, diesel and medicine needed.
North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper says help has been dispatched to Ocracoke Island, and that food and water is on the way to those stranded there.
Cooper also said on Friday that assessments are underway to determine the damage that Hurricane Dorian left behind.
First responders will airlift anyone who may have been injured, and others who need to leave the island. A shelter in Washington County will accommodate people from Ocracoke who need temporary housing.
Damage assessments are underway in southeastern North Carolina, and emergency management personnel are prepared to move supplies into the areas that need them.
Cooper plans to tour Emerald Isle and Carteret County on Saturday to take a look at damage caused by the hurricane.
Hurricane Dorian caused a significant oil spill at a petroleum storage terminal on Grand Bahama Island.
Satellite images taken Friday show a slick of black oil seeping from the South Riding Point terminal.
Equinor is the facility's owner. In a statement, it said its initial aerial assessment showed the seaside terminal had sustained damage and oil has been observed on the ground outside of the onshore tanks. The company said it was "too early" to estimate how much oil might have spilled into the surrounding environment, but that there were "no observations of any oil spill at sea."
The terminal's tanks can hold 6.75 million barrels of crude oil and condensate. The facility was shut down Saturday as the Category 5 storm approached the island.
Equinor said it has mobilized oil spill response resources that will arrive "as soon as possible."
Equinor is an international oil company that is majority-owned by the Norwegian government.
North Carolina National Guard helicopters have ferried dozens of emergency and damage assessment workers to evaluate what's happened on a fragile barrier island that experienced widespread flooding from Hurricane Dorian.
Gov. Roy Cooper said that Ocracoke Island was without power late Friday and many homes and businesses were still underwater. He says about 800 people had stayed on the island to wait out Dorian. There have been no reports of injuries or deaths there so far.
Cooper says points north along the Outer Banks also received damage from Dorian, with its storm surge and high winds. Southeastern North Carolina was getting back to normal, as reported damage was less there.
Otherwise, the number of power outages in eastern North Carolina has been falling. They stood at about 130,000 as of late afternoon.
The publisher of a newspaper on North Carolina's Ocracoke Island says there's no power on the island and that water has been shut off because of problems at the treatment plant.
Connie Leinbach publishes the Ocracoke Observer. She says Leinbach said sheriff's deputies and other rescue personnel performed at least two rescues from attics. She said the U.S. Coast Guard was also called in to help a man who was having problems with his oxygen.
She also said the night started out as a typical storm, much like a nor'easter. She said she felt some gusts and then went to bed. By 7 p.m., she says water started coming up the road and rose higher than it had during Hurricane Matthew.
Hurricane Dorian continues to churn off the North Carolina coast, but it's heading further into the Atlantic Ocean, prompting forecasters to lift hurricane and tropical storm warnings south of the Virginia-North Carolina border.
The 5 p.m. advisory from the National Hurricane Center showed Dorian about 330 miles (531 km) south-southwest of Nantucket, Massachusetts. It was moving to the northeast at 24 mph (39 kph).
Maximum sustained winds are at 90 mph (149 kph). The hurricane center says some strengthening is possible during the next 24 hours. After that, forecasters expect Dorian to become a post-tropical cyclone with hurricane-force winds Saturday night or Sunday as it comes close to or passes over eastern Canada.
A storm surge warning has been discontinued north of the Virginia-North Carolina border. A hurricane warning is in effect for eastern Nova Scotia from Hubbards to Avonport.
Florida's U.S. senators say Bahamian authorities need to make specific requests to the U.S. government-run aid agency before the U.S. Department of Defense can assist the Bahamas with Hurricane Dorian relief efforts.
At a Friday news conference in Miami, U.S. Sen. Rick Scott said he had spoken to Bahamian authorities and believes the request to the U.S. Agency for International Development may be sent soon.
Scott and U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio flew with the U.S. Coast Guard to the Bahamas Friday along with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to look at the damage.
Rubio said part of the holdup has been the slow assessment of what is needed. He says that the passing of the storm "will free up some northern command assets."
Environmental regulators in the Carolinas are receiving scattered reports of failures at municipal wastewater treatment plants and livestock waste lagoons in danger of overflowing in the aftermath of Hurricane Dorian.
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality said it was tracking reports of 44 incidents as of Friday afternoon, nearly all of them east of Interstate 95. Of those, only an ongoing sewage spill at the wastewater treatment plant in the town of Mount Olive was classified as "urgent action needed." It was estimated that more than 75,000 gallons of sewage had spilled so far into the Northeast Cape Fear River.
Thirteen permitted animal operations were reporting problems, including hog farmers who said their waste pits were nearly full. But there were no reports of significant breaches or spills like those that occurred last year during the record-shattering rains from Hurricane Florence.
Officials on North Carolina's Ocracoke Island are initiating efforts to evacuate residents who need to leave.
The island is accessible only by boat or air and has seen significant flooding due to Hurricane Dorian.
A statement from Hyde County on Friday says aircraft will take residents to Dare County. From there, they will be driven to a Washington County shelter equipped with food, medical supplies and power.
Officials say people seeking to leave the island should get in touch with the county's emergency operations center. Priority will be given to the elderly, anyone with medical needs or other special circumstances.
The county also says it is hoping to have the ferry routes evaluated on Saturday, adding that as soon as possible, it will perform evacuations by ferry.
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster has lifted the remaining evacuation orders for Berkeley, Charleston, Dorcheter, Georgetown and Horry counties.
That means residents who left the state's coastal areas ahead of Hurricane Dorian can return home Friday. Residents in Beaufort, Colleton and Jasper counties were allowed to return Thursday afternoon.
The Post and Courier reports McMaster cautioned returning residents that they could face blocked roads, detours and lengthy travel times.
McMaster and Department of Transportation Secretary Christy Hall were surveying the damage Friday from a National Guard helicopter.
Hall says she doesn't anticipate the need to close roads due to river flooding or take emergency measures to keep them open. That's unlike what happened last September, when torrential rains dumped by Hurricane Florence inundated towns along the Waccamaw and other rivers.
Bahamian Prime Minister Hubert Minnis spoke to a crowd gathered at the port in Great Abaco, using the help of a Creole interpreter for a group of Haitians awaiting evacuation after Hurricane Dorian .
He told the Haitians, whose community has suffered intentionally set fires in recent years, they'll be treated with respect and there will be no discrimination.
Minnis urged families with children to keep their children in school when they reach Nassau, adding that the government will keep providing food and health care.
Minnis said he was satisfied with the speed of the government's response, noting that the U.S. Coast Guard was helping. But he also said officials still need medical equipment and supplies and heavy equipment to go through rubble.
He pledged that search and rescue teams are making every effort to find bodies in Abaco. Officials say 30 people have been confirmed dead in the Bahamas, but the toll is sure to rise.
U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio says the Bahamas immediately needs the U.S. Department of Defense's resources to deliver aid in the Abaco islands, saying distribution is impossible in the region that was devastated by Hurricane Dorian .
Rubio said via Twitter on Friday that defense resources need to be approved "to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe."
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the two U.S. senators from the state traveled to the Bahamas on Friday to see the damage.
Rubio also said the main hospital in Freeport, Bahamas, needs supplies and that fuel tanks in Grand Bahama flooded causing oil to spill over the top.
New hurricane warnings and watches have been issued for eastern Canada as Hurricane Dorian crawls up the East Coast.
Tropical Storm warnings have also been issued for parts of Maine, Massachusetts and Delaware.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center says hurricane conditions are expected in eastern Nova Scotia on Saturday.
The storm is moving away from North Carolina's coast after making landfall Friday morning on the Outer Banks. Dorian's center is about 125 miles (200 kilometers) northeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and is moving northeast near 21 mph (34 kph). The hurricane center says Dorian is expected to increase its forward speed through Saturday night.
Earlier this week, the storm slammed the Bahamas, killing at least 30 people and obliterating countless homes.
The United Nations said Friday that the International Organization for Migration is providing 1,000 tarps to replace roofs stripped from homes by Hurricane Dorian on the islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama.
U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said the migration office stressed that the priority right now is search and rescue operations. He says that after everyone has been rescued and the wounded safely evacuated, the agency will focus on providing temporary shelter for those who lost their homes.
Dujarric said the World Health Organization reports it's focusing on providing clinical care, food supplies, safe drinking water and sanitation to survivors.
Officials say 30 people have been confirmed dead in the Bahamas, but the toll is sure to rise.
Early in-person voting for a closely watched North Carolina congressional race has been extended in counties that shuttered voting sites due to Hurricane Dorian .
The State Board of Elections says voting in Cumberland, Scotland, Robeson and Bladen counties has resumed Friday for the 9th Congressional District special election and will continue there through Saturday. Early voting in other 9th District counties further inland that didn't halt balloting will end Friday as scheduled.
State law gives the board's executive director emergency powers during a disaster. Democrat Dan McCready, Republican Dan Bishop and two other candidates are running in the 9th District.
More early-vote extensions are being considered for the coastal 3rd District special election, where all counties closed sites early due to Dorian.
Election day is Tuesday for both races.
A Florida cruise ship plans to bring back Bahamians who want to evacuate the hurricane-ravaged country after disembarking in Grand Bahama island with supplies, first responders and volunteers.
Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line's CEO Oneil Khosa told The Associated Press more than 500 volunteers signed up to travel to help storm victims. The company says those traveling need to work in health care or construction.
Khosa says Bahamians who want to leave the island to go to Florida would have to be properly documented and get to Freeport on Friday. The ship is expected to return to the Port of Palm Beach early Saturday.
The company canceled its regular cruise trip to turn it into a humanitarian mission. The Grand Celebration ship has capacity for 1,800 travelers.
Hurricane Dorian has given the U.S. mainland only a glancing blow after wreaking havoc on the Bahamas, where more than 30 people have been killed.
In Grand Bahama, a long line has formed at a cruise ship that docked to distribute food and water to survivors.
Among those waiting was Wellisy Taylor, a 65-year-old housewife. She said Bahamians had not received help yet from their government.
She says islanders know that the government will take care of "its people," but she expects help won't come overnight.
She says Bahamians have to band together and share what they've got with each other. She says that's how she grew up, that's the Bahamas she knows. She says "we're going to have to go right back to that same Bahamas. All for one and one for all."
All evacuation orders in South Carolina have been lifted as waters from Hurricane Dorian recede and the storm continues up the Atlantic coast.
Gov. Henry McMaster ordered the remaining evacuation orders lifted in areas of Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Georgetown, and Horry counties. Orders in Beaufort, Jasper and Colleton counties were lifted on Thursday.
McMaster had ordered the evacuation of South Carolina's entire coast earlier this week as Dorian churned its way toward the U.S. mainland. All lanes of Interstate 26, the main thoroughfare connecting the city of Charleston to the state's interior, were pointed westward to quickly evacuate as many residents as possible. State officials said 441,000 people pulled out ahead of Dorian.
Now they can come back after Dorian gave the state what turned out to be only a glancing blow.
South Carolina's governor is flying around the state to survey any damage from Hurricane Dorian .
Gov. Henry McMaster's office says the governor is visiting emergency operations centers in Horry, Georgetown and Charleston counties Friday. Late Friday afternoon, the governor planned to talk to reporters after meeting with officials during his final stop in North Charleston.
Dorian sideswiped the Carolinas with shrieking winds, tornadoes and sideways rain Thursday as it closed in for a possible direct hit on the dangerously exposed Outer Banks. At least four deaths in the Southeast were blamed on the storm.
Twisters spun off by Dorian peeled away roofs and flipped trailers, and more than 250,000 homes and businesses were left without power.
On Friday morning, residents and crews fanned out around downtown Charleston, scooping up the branches and leaves that littered the centuries-old streets.
Hurricane Dorian has a little namesake, born as the storm was sideswiping Florida's Atlantic Coast.
Tadashi Dorian Davis made his debut two weeks early Monday at AdventHealth DeLand hospital in central Florida. His mother, Kay McCloud, says she was praying the baby wouldn't come during the hurricane.
The baby weighed 4 pounds (1.8 kilograms), 8 ounces (226 grams).
Dr. Hussain Esmail-Rawji tells The Daytona Beach News-Journal that four babies were born at the hospital Monday. He says the baby is healthy.
McCloud says they had planned on Trey as the baby's middle name, just like his father. She says the baby's dad, Anthony Davis, suggested Dorian.
North Carolina emergency officials remain worried about storm surge and flash flooding from Hurricane Dorian as it churns up the Atlantic coast. But preliminary damage reports from where the hurricane has departed are better than feared.
Gov. Roy Cooper said Friday there's "significant concern about hundreds of people trapped" on Ocracoke Island, located south of Cape Hatteras and accessible only by boat or aircraft. He says waters are rising there and rescue crews are ready to go when the storm clears.
Cooper says reports of the storm's aftermath south toward Wilmington are better than anticipated, but warned Dorian is still raging at the Outer Banks and in northern counties.
More than 4,500 people spent the night in nearly 80 shelters statewide.
North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper says hundreds are stranded on Ocracoke Island as Hurricane Dorian moves up the U.S. East Coast.
Cooper told reporters Friday morning that rescue teams are ready as soon as they can move in. He says local authorities are telling people to get to the highest point in their home.
Dorian came ashore Friday morning at Cape Hatteras on North Carolina's Outer Banks.
At the start of the week, the storm slammed the Bahamas, killing at least 30 people and obliterating countless homes. From there, it swept past Florida and Georgia before sideswiping the Carolinas on Thursday with tornadoes that peeled away roofs and flipped recreational vehicles.
Ocracoke Island resident Leslie Lanier says some residents on the thin strip of land on North Carolina's coast have had to climb into their attics because of high water from Hurricane Dorian .
Lanier said via text message Friday morning that some first floors have been flooded. But she added that the water level has started to drop. Lanier owns a bookstore on the Outer Banks island. She said she's OK but "nervous and worried."
On Friday morning in the Bahamas, several hundred people waited behind a yellow cloth tape at the port in Grand Abaco, many of them holding small children and valuables they tried to save after Hurricane Dorian devastated the area.
Some had duffel bags piled in shopping carts while others carried tools. Some in the crowd had already placed their names on evacuation lists at shelters and arrived as early as 1 a.m., hoping for transportation to the capital of Nassau.
There were no government-organized evacuations yet, but the Royal Bahamas Defense Force was helping people board a 139-foot (42-meter) ferry that had come to pick up its employees and had room for an additional 160 people.
At least 30 people have been killed in the Bahamas and countless homes were destroyed.
Ocracoke Island resident Leslie Lanier says the North Carolina island in the Outer Banks is "flooding like crazy" as Hurricane Dorian rakes the Carolinas.
Lanier said by text message Friday morning that the water is in homes on the island and she expects the water to keep rising.
She said she's safe for the time being, but added that she has been on Ocracoke for 32 years and not seen anything like this. Lanier owns a bookshop on the island at the southern end of the Outer Banks. She moved books and gifts off the ground in anticipation of the storm, which made landfall Friday morning at Cape Hatteras.
Hurricane Dorian has come ashore at Cape Hatteras on North Carolina's Outer Banks, marking its first U.S. landfall since it slammed into the Bahamas days ago.
Dorian sideswiped most of the Southeast seaboard from Florida to Carolinas in recent days before its eye made landfall Friday morning.
At 9 a.m. EDT, the storm's center was moving northeast at 14 mph (22 kph).
On Thursday, Dorian raked the Carolina coast with howling winds and heavy rain, spinning off tornadoes and knocking out power to more than 200,000 homes and businesses. The U.S. National Hurricane Center says Dorian is expected to accelerate as it moves off extreme southeastern New England sometime Friday night and early Saturday before a weekend approach to Nova Scotia in Canada.
Hurricane Dorian's center is near Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, as it continues its crawl up the East Coast.
The storm's maximum sustained winds Friday morning are near 90 mph (150 kph), making it a Category 1 hurricane.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center says the storm is centered about 10 miles (15 kilometers) west-southwest of Cape Hatteras and is moving northeast near 14 mph (22 kph).
Dorian hammered the Bahamas earlier this week, killing at least 30 people. But it swept past Florida at a relatively safe distance, grazed Georgia, and then hugged the South Carolina-North Carolina coastline. At least four deaths in the Southeast have been blamed on the storm.
Hurricane Dorian continues to scrape the North Carolina coast just offshore, with the worst weather hitting the Outer Banks.
The storm's strong winds and heavy rains early Friday knocked out power to about 194,000 homes and businesses in North Carolina.
PowerOutage.US reports 160,000 outages remain in South Carolina after Dorian scraped that state's coast Thursday.
Authorities haven't reported any major damage, but were waiting for daylight to make a more comprehensive assessment.
The center of the storm has remained off the North Carolina coast. A weather station on Cape Lookout recorded winds of 75 mph (121 kph) as the eye of Dorian passes less than 10 miles (16 kilometers) away.
People who live in southeastern Virginia are beginning to lose their electricity as Dorian blows up the Atlantic Coast.
Dominion Energy reported on its website Friday that more than 7,000 people have lost power. Most of the outages are in the cities of Virginia Beach and Chesapeake. Both cities border North Carolina and are home to hundreds of thousands of people.
The city of Norfolk is also reporting outages.
Much of Virginia's Hampton Roads region is already shut down in anticipation of the storm. Schools have closed. Mass transit has stopped running. And the area's large military bases are operating with only mission-essential personnel.
The eye of Hurricane Dorian is passing just east of Cape Lookout as the Category 1 storm skirts North Carolina's coast.
Sustained, hurricane-force winds are battering the southern Outer Banks, a 200-mile-long (320-kilometer-long) chain of low-lying barrier islands and spits off North Carolina. The center of the storm is around 25 miles (40 kilometers) east of Cape Lookout and 55 miles (89 kilometers) southwest of Cape Hatteras, further north in the Outer Banks.
Top sustained winds are near 90 mph (145 kph) and the storm is moving northeast at 14 mph (22 kph).
As of 5 a.m., the National Hurricane Center replaced a hurricane warning with a tropical storm warning from South Santee River to Little River Inlet in South Carolina. The storm-surge warning south of Surf City, North Carolina, has been discontinued.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami is reporting hurricane-force wind gusts along the southern Outer Banks of North Carolina.
A weather station at Cape Lookout on the southern end of the chain of low-lying islands recently reported a 10-minute average wind of 63 mph (101 kph), equivalent to a 1-minute sustained wind speed of 69 mph (111 kph). A wind gust of 75 mph (121 kph) was also reported, but the weather station inside the western part of Dorian's eye hasn't reported data since 3 a.m.
Dorian's center is around 15 miles (24 kilometers) south of Cape Lookout, and around 80 miles (129 kilometers) southwest of Cape Hatteras, further north on the string of barrier islands and spits.
The Category 1 storm's top sustained winds remain at 90 mph (145 kph) and the storm is still moving northeast at 14 mph (22 kph).
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami is reporting hurricane-force winds "just offshore" Cape Lookout, part of the low-lying islands that make up North Carolina's Outer Banks.
The Category 1 storm is located around 25 miles (40 kilometers) south-southwest of Cape Lookout, and around 90 miles (145 kilometers) southwest of Cape Hatteras, further north on the string of barrier islands and spits.
Top sustained winds remain at 90 mph (145 kph) and the storm is moving northeast at 14 mph (23 kph).
The storm is expected to weaken slowly over the next few days, but will likely remain a powerful hurricane as it moves along the coast of North Carolina.
Hurricane Dorian has weakened somewhat to a Category 1 storm, but forecasters say the threat posed to the southeastern U.S. coast hasn't abated.
Dorian is currently 55 miles (89 kilometers) east of Wilmington, North Carolina, and 30 miles (48 kilometers) south-southwest of Cape Lookout, North Carolina, and moving northeast at 15 mph (24 kph). The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami says that general motion is expected to continue, with an increase in speed through Saturday.
The center of the storm will move near or over the coast of North Carolina over the next several hours, before moving to the "southeast of extreme southeastern New England" on Friday night and Saturday morning and then across Nova Scotia.
A storm surge warning has been discontinued south of Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, but flooding remains possible in parts of North Carolina depending on the tide and the storm's distance from the coast.
After triggering tornadoes in South Carolina, Hurricane Dorian is closing in for a possible direct hit Friday on North Carolina's Outer Banks, a string of low-lying islands.
On Ocracoke Island, near the southern end of the 200-mile-long (322-kilometer-long) string of barrier islands and spits, about half of the 1,000 residents have stuck around to face the storm.
Further north, Virginia was also in harm's way.
Overnight winds are expected to cause trees and branches to fall on power lines, and debris could block repair crews from accessing damaged line.
As of early Friday, Dorian was centered about 40 miles (64 kilometers) east-northeast of Wilmington, North Carolina and had weakened to a Category 1 storm. With maximum sustained winds of 90 mph (145 kph), Dorian was moving northeast at 15 mph (24 kph).

SBU Geosciences Secures $1.4 Million NASA Grant
Grant to fund work on the PIXL instrument, selected for the Mars 2020 rover mission
Dr. Joel Hurowitz
STONY BROOK, N.Y., August 8, 2014 – Dr. Joel Hurowitz and colleagues in the Stony Brook University Department of Geosciences, were selected to receive a $1.4 million NASA grant to support the development and testing of the "Planetary Instrument for X-ray Lithochemistry" (PIXL), one of the seven instruments just selected to be part of the scientific instrument payload of the Mars 2020 rover mission. With PIXL, Mars researchers will be able to simultaneously link chemistry to rock textural features that are as small as a grain of table salt. This is the scale at which microbes leave their imprint on rocks; therefore, PIXL will provide a first-of-its-kind look at the record of life on the Red Planet.
PIXL is an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer that also contains a high-resolution imager to determine the fine-scale elemental composition of Martian surface materials. Currently under development at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), PIXL was created by principal investigator and JPL research scientist, Dr. Abigail Allwood along with Dr. Hurowitz, the project's deputy principal investigator who recently completed his PhD at Stony Brook and is now a Research Associate Professor. Dr. Hurowitz will lead testing efforts on the Stony Brook campus where he will work with graduate and undergraduate students to advance the PIXL project.
"Being selected to be part of the Mars 2020 rover mission is not only a great professional honor for Abby and I, but also for the entire Stony Brook University community," said Dr. Hurowitz. "The research and testing that will be done in Stony Brook's Earth and Space Science building is groundbreaking and I am confident that the results uncovered by faculty and students will directly contribute to the success of the PIXL instrument during the NASA mission in 2020."
Dr. Hurowitz's laboratory will be located in Stony Brook University's Earth and Space Science building. Testing is expected to begin in the spring of 2015 and continue through to 2023. At the lab, a high-powered fidelity version of the PIXL will be built and Stony Brook University students, regardless of major or academic discipline, will be able to partake in testing the innovative instrument, performing activities that might include:
Geological investigations using PIXL on Earth rocks that are analogues to those found on Mars
Development of operational strategies outlining how to use PIXL on Mars
Instrument calibration experiments to maximize the quality of quantitative data returned from Mars by PIXL
Software development that will promote the rapid and straightforward interpretation of data returned from Mars by PIXL
"The NASA grant funding the PIXL project on our campus exemplifies the contributions of Stony Brook University's Geosciences program," said Stony Brook University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., MD. "Joel and his team are to be commended for bringing this grant to Stony Brook, and for providing our students with a once in a lifetime opportunity to contribute to world class research involving the Mars rover for years to come."
PIXL's capabilities will help NASA's Mars 2020 Rover mission accomplish its goals, which include seeking evidence for past life on Mars. The PIXL project was selected out of 58 proposals received in January 2014 from researches and engineers worldwide.

I just had never gone up something so steep before and figured it was time. So, there I was waiting at the bottom while my son made his assent. Yep, looked easy enough. I noticed how he threw his body forward just as he crested the top so the front end would, in fact, touch the ground. I began my climb, being careful not to give it too much gas. As I got closer to the top, however, and tightened my grip on the handle bars, my thumb hit the throttle a little too hard. The entire front end lifted up off the ground and I was still a distance away from the top. In that instant I was really really scared and with all my might I lunged forward! I seriously thought I was going to go over backwards because back then I only weighed 125. But, I was able to get the wheels down, up and over just by the skin of my teeth!
Whew! Another adventure under my belt!
Although I never again tried to climb anything else that steep, I have taken it up the mountain here and have covered some pretty rough terrain with it. So, the moral to this story is listen to your son when he knows more than you!
P.S. I really was nominated for Prom Queen when I was in college. I just didn't win!
I bet that was pretty scary!! So glad you didn't flip it. Good thing your son gave you a few pointers before you went instead of just letting you go it alone without any instructions.

Ed Sheeran's Mumbai gig registration begins today!
Updated Jul 12, 2017 | 13:51 IST | Anindita Banerjee
Link for the ticket sale will be sent to people who have already pre-registered!
The wait is officially over. It's time to freak out like you did when Justin Bieber's India tickets went on sale.
If you've been waiting for the moment to hit click on the 'buy' button for tickets to your favourite ginger-haired singer's concert in Mumbai, then 11 July is the day.
Post-noon, a special link has been activated for all those who have pre-registered on Book My Show for Sheeran's gig. By clicking on this link, each fan will be able to purchase up to (but no more than) four tickets each.
The concert is all set to take place at the JioGarden BKC, in Mumbai on November 19. And the hype is slowly but steadily building up (obviously).
