Q: C# definition problem I have defined a performance counter as:
PerformanceCounterCategory pcc = new PerformanceCounterCategory("Network Interface", ipAddress);
string instance = pcc.GetInstanceNames()[1]; //first card

PerformanceCounter bandwidthCounter = new PerformanceCounter("Network Interface", "Current Bandwidth", instance, ipAddress);

in my code, but I want to define it global and use in different functions, so I changed the code to:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Net;
using System.Collections;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
using System.Management;

        }

        public void getIpRange()
        {
            frm.calcIpAddressRange();

            if (frm.calcIpAddressRange())
            {
                range = frm.intEndIp - frm.intStartIp + 1;  // 13 - 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
                step = range / (int)frm.nudThreads.Value;   // 13 / 5 = 2
                modJobs = (range % frm.threadSayac);        // 13 mod 5 kalan= 3+

                }
            }
        }
    }
}

and then when I use bandwidthCounter I get this error:

Object reference not set to an
  instance of an object.

What is missing?

A: You need to put the instance in a static field, and initialize it in the field initializer.
For example:
static PerformanceCounter bandwidthCounter
  = new PerformanceCounter("Network Interface", "Current Bandwidth", instance, ipAddress);

A: If you want to use it in other classes you can make class search static and all its fields static as well. Also you should instantiate your object "bandwidthCounter" beforer playing with it.

A: I have solved my problem as use this declaration
public static PerformanceCounter bandwidthCounter;

and after use this format
bandwidthCounter = new PerformanceCounter("Network Interface", "Current Bandwidth", instance, ipAddress);

thanks to every answers

Q: I have an eventListener that won't allow me to pass parameters through it I have an eventListener that won't allow me to pass parameters through it.

    jobSelect.addEventListener("change", addTextBox.bind(jobSelect,jobBox,jobLabel), false);

    function hideTextBox(){

Get to Know Literary Ontario, with Sumanth Prabhaker of Madras Press
Submitted by erin on June 1, 2011 - 9:46am
Sumanth Prabhaker is the founding editor of Madras Press, a unique and market-defying press that publishes individually bound short stories and novellas in beautiful but inexpensive limited editions. All proceeds from sales of the books go to a charity of the author's choice. The recent Madras Press list includes new work by Ben Marcus, Andrew Kaufman, Ken Kalfus and Donald Barthelme.
This summer Open Book will be checking in with short story writers and publishers to celebrate and explore a genre in which anything is possible. Sumanth Prabhaker starts us off by telling us about Madras Press's origins and why he thinks this transitional period — when the affairs of the publishing world sometimes look a little bleak — is so full of potential.
Open Book:
Tell us about Madras Press. How did it get started, and what makes it distinct from other small presses?
Sumanth Prabhaker:
Madras Press got started in my living room. I was rearranging the books on my bookshelves, and I kept putting certain ones aside without really thinking about it, and eventually I had this pile of favorites, and most of them were thin or tiny or both. And I thought it would be neat to start a company whose whole project was to create those kinds of books, the kind that are nice just to hold and look at, if not to read as well.
Our books are small and they don't have blurbs on them, and the covers are uncoated, and some of them are colourful. They're printed in limited editions and they cost about as much as a greeting card. The net proceeds from each book's sales benefit a charitable organization of the author's choice. Beyond any of that stuff, I think our books as objects feel appropriate for the stories within them — that is, the physical components and distribution model have been built with the content in mind. It's a trait we admire in presses like Featherproof and Melville House and Akashic, and one that seems to hold very little bearing in the workflow at most larger publishers.
OB:
How do you select the stories and novellas that you publish?
It's hopefully a good mix. Sometimes we have someone in mind and we pursue him or her; others approach us; and others come to us in the mail. In our second series, we published our first classic reprint, a Donald Barthelme story from The Dead Father and Sixty Stories, paired with an afterword by Rick Moody. That's a project we'd like to continue doing.
Do you see common themes or a stylistic preference in Madras's list of titles?
I don't see a clear one, but I bet anyone who read them all would be able to. We happen to appreciate speculative fiction and fabulism, but only when it's good. I also like food writing a lot and am trying to put together a series of little books about eating and cooking. And a good murder mystery can be very special. But if we're doing our job right, the books, no matter how different in content, should share a sense of necessity — that this is the way in which they ought to appear, rather than bundled into a magazine or a larger collection. That feeling that a story could do better on its own than with others is something we always look for.
The materiality of these wonderful books is obviously very important to you and your authors. Do you think that a book's production value will become more and more important when it comes to a reader's decision to buy a physical book rather than an ebook?
That makes sense to me, anyway. If it's so much cheaper and easier to read on screen, those invested in physical books will have to capitalize on their peculiarities to stay competitive. Making a book more pleasant to hold in your hand than a mouse or tablet. Printing on paper that feels good every time you turn a page. Producing a book whose trim size seems to want to enhance the reading experience, rather than simply to hold some hardware. And maybe most importantly, offering products for sale in stores that are actually fun to visit.
I can understand preferring the iTunes bookstore to visiting a Borders, because it's equally a chore to visit either of them — they're ugly and the lighting is terrible and I don't know the people who work there and there's no character to the selection, so of course the cheaper alternative wins. But it's more than worth paying full price for a book when you buy it at, say, Ada Books in Providence, or Type Books in Toronto. Because you're buying the experience, then, of going to these amazing places where good books matter and bad books don't. Until someone figures out how to replicate that feeling during an online checkout, there will always be a reason to pay more for a book than for its digitized content.
What is the biggest challenge to running a press like Madras?
It's never easy to turn down a good manuscript that comes in the mail. I hate that part. Too often we'll find something that's really good, but just not the right fit — maybe too similar to something we've already published or are planning to, or something we wouldn't be equipped to market well enough — and we have to pass on it. And, being a writer, I know how loaded those rejection notes can seem, so it's particularly important to me to be able to convey the it's-not-you-it's-me-ness of the transaction. I'm sure I'm awful at it.
I also didn't enjoy filling out the 501(c)3 paperwork.
It's easy to be bogged down by the bad news stories about publishers and distributors going under. What is your opinion about the state of Canada's publishing industry?
Things maybe look a little bleak from certain perspectives, but eventually I think this period will be looked back on as a very good transition, one during which the myth of the sustainable publishing conglomerate went away and room was made for some really wonderful small presses to establish their catalogs. As long as places like Coach House and Gaspereau and Mercury are able to do business, I see no reason to panic.
Tell us about your own writing projects. What are you working on these days, and how does your involvement with Madras influence your work as a writer?
I've got a couple of other novellas, besides my Madras Press book, A Mere Pittance, and I'm a little unsure what to do with them. One is about tree sloths and one is about a guy with bad dandruff. I'm currently at work on another novella, all dialogue like A Mere Pittance, involving some Scientologists. And I'm researching in anticipation of a book of short stories I expect to write over the next few years, mostly about Nikola Tesla.
I'm sure these two parts of my life affect each other, but I may not be the best person to tell you exactly how. I have lately begun to worry less and less about how saleable a story might be before or as I work on it, and I'm sure running a company like this is somehow responsible for that — reshaping my definition of success as a writer, and focusing on the clear communication of sentiment and experience rather than on the potential to make money or garner fame among a threshold of readers. The idea of the thing itself being what matters, rather than how it can function in an oversaturated market.
What's next for Madras Press?
Lots of neat stuff. At least two more series of these little square books, with a similar selection of authors we know we like and authors we didn't know about before but now we do and we like them too. Then maybe a change in format — something larger for a while, like the beautiful letter-sized serial booklets coming out from Fantagraphics now. Or something regular-sized. We are open to new ideas, anyway.
Sumanth Prabhaker is the founding editor of Madras Press, a non-profit publisher of individually bound short stories and novella-length booklets whose catalogue includes work by Aimee Bender, Ken Kalfus, Ben Marcus and Rick Moody. He is the author of the novella A Mere Pittance.

In previous posts I've talked about the hard road to getting a book published, and even a bit about the effort that goes into just getting those first few stories done. I've talked about submitting writing and dealing with rejection, so I thought I'd take some time to discuss another real important thing to get used to, as you ready work for publication.

Absolutely beautiful home in a great location, close to stores, mini marts, restaurants and schools. This home is 2500 Sq. Ft. with a huge kitchen, big lot and an extra home that needs to be completely rehabbed. Call today!


The Traverse has higher-quality interior materials than some others in the class. There's standard seating for eight, but models with second-row captain's chairs drop seating capacity to seven. The first row is comfortable and the second-row seats, while roomy, are mounted too low for optimal comfort. The third row feels roomier than most in the class, but it's not ideal for long trips. Rear visibility is poor, but the standard rearview camera makes it easier to back up.

The first CD Single: Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms"

Order Tramadol Mastercard
Soma Cod Overnight Delivery In 1985, Vertigo, a sub-label of Phonogram, issued the world's first CD single in Europe to promote the landmark Dire Straits album Brothers in Arms and the resulting world concert tour. The four-track single featured long and short versions of the album's title track, a portion of "Why Worry" from Brothers in Arms, and "Going Home", a solo hit by Mark Knopfler. This CD single was released in conjuction with the concert tour's sponsor, Philips, a co-inventor of the CD format with Sony.
http___www.bigleaguekickball.com_advertise_ Soma ONLINE NO PRESCRIPTION ~ Soma NEXT DAY DELIVERY The "Brothers in Arms" CD single was pressed in West Germany by Polygram and was released under Vertigo catalog number 884 285-2. Two variations of the CD single were released. The variations are marked by a subtle difference on the front cover. The first version has a concert tour date of 1985 in a blue triangle. As the concert tour extended into 1986, the cover was modified with the new date, and the appearance of the triangle was improved with additional colors. I have read that just 200 copies of the 1985 version were released, while only 500 copies of the 1986 version were released. While I cannot verify these numbers, both versions are rare in my experience.

The label design is very similar to the one used for original issues of the Brothers in Arms album CD, except for the single, the guitar motif is pink instead of blue. Two versions of this CD single were issued that differ only by the date on the cover. Thus, this disc was issued with both versions.

Teachers honored for supporting, inspiring students
Matt Owen '10 and Otto Wild praised for going "above and beyond"
Lasallian educators Otto Wild and Matt Owen '10 each received the Third Annual Carol Feltz Bluhm '80 Award on Friday, Feb. 16, during halftime of the varsity girls basketball game in the Brick Oven.
The award, named for a standout alumna who died of cancer in 2014, recognizes teachers who go above and beyond their everyday duties by coaching, moderating, or leading an activity sanctioned by the Oregon School Activities Association. The award honors those who embody the mission of Lasallian education and demonstrate integrity, responsibility, servant leadership, and sportsmanship.
Mr. Wild, in his 22nd year at La Salle, serves as the school's music director, teaching choir, guitar, and religious studies, as well as leading vocal training for La Salle's musical theater.
In his third year at La Salle, Matt Owen '10 teaches chemistry, and serves as an assistant coach of the varsity boys soccer team, and as a coach of the track and field team.
Both educators show the kind of commitment to students that Feltz Bluhm -- a basketball star, yearbook editor, and student leader during her time at La Salle -- "wanted to make sure we recognized" forever, said Andrea Burns '97, Vice President of Foundation & Major Gifts.
Carol's husband, Jim Bluhm, noted that coaches and moderators spend "hours and hours" leading practices, planning, and traveling to events so students can pursue their passions.
"She knew it could be a pretty thankless job..." he said. "But the impact the coaches have on the lives of their students and athletes is great. It definitely was for Carol."

Once you hear the word CANCER, life suddenly takes on a whole new perspective. It is the diagnosis that no one individual ever wants to hear, but reality is, when you have been given your medical results and your doctor says it's cancer, then you do have to deal with it. There's just no running away hoping things will get better.
There will be many rough waters ahead as you await tests to verify the severity of your cancer, along with consultations with oncologists and specialists to determine the best course of action for treatment of your cancer. Surgery may be an option, it could be chemo or radiation, taking some of the newer oral medications may be recommended or other newer technological advances such as radio therapy or laporoscopic procedures.
One vital element to getting you through the many doctor visits, the uncertainties associated with test results and side effects from treatments is to have a good support system. It's vital that you connect with someone else who can relate personally to similiar anxieties and experiences. And never, ever think that you are all alone as you continue your fight against cancer.
How do you find that special someone? With today's technologies, it's actually very simple. Check websites that relate to your specific type of cancer, find chat rooms to communicate with other patients/caregivers, and don't ever be afraid to ask for professional help from the medical experts when you need that experienced someone to just talk things over with. It can become very overwhelming at times, and maintaining a positive attitude is absolutely neces sary.
Remember also, that at times, it's not only the patient who needs that support, but other family members may be struggling as well, and it's very important that they too open the lines of communication with others who can help with their emotional struggles.
Communicating with someone else who also travels through the trials of cancer, definitely brings calmness to your life.
Never be afraid to ask for that help and support!!!
Good post. Without support, we would never be able to the ebbs and tides of a cancer diagnosis; we would be overcome by the rough waves. It is also nice to have someone to celebrate the calm waters with us, also.
What a great post ... must have that support.
Great post! caregivers also help with their emotional struggles.
love the music Deb - who is it? Beautiful lyrics.
Michael W. Smith sings this song...it's beautiful with such inspirational words for all of us. Glad you liked it!
Cancer as a "Chronic Disease"

PowerArchiver 2016 unveils major redesign and rebuild
05 February 2016, Nick Peers
ConeXware has released PowerArchiver 2016, a major new release of its trialware archiving tool for Windows. The new release is the first version of the program to be developed using IDE, a process that began over two years ago.
Version 2016 adds 4K resolution and touch-screen support, a major new user interface and the splitting of key features into separate, fully independent apps.
The new user interface design makes no attempt to reinvent the wheel, leaving everything exactly where it was previously, but unveiling new classic and ribbon/modern designs. The app is now properly skinned, with 9 pre-built skins available, and this can be switched off to improve performance on low-powered computers.
PowerArchiver 2016 unveils a major facelift as well as under-the-hood changes.
The interface also gains a new icon design and logo to reflect its thoroughly modern look, although traditionalists retain the option (under View > Skin Options > Icon sets) of reverting to the traditional look. Almost all aspects of the program interface can now be customised too.
The app has been tuned to work better with Windows 10, but retains compatibility all the way back to XP. Support for high-res displays – all the way to up to 4K – has also been implemented, along with support for touch-screen displays via a special Touch Mode.
The program's rebuild also sees it split off key tools – including backup, enctryption, burner and virtual drives – into their own fully independent apps, accessible from PowerArchiver but also capable of being run separately.
Other highlights include being able to encrypt and sign Office and Adobe PDF documents, the addition of an audio burner and ripper, and full read/write support for ZPAQ and WIM formats.
The burner engine has been updated to support the latest Blu-Ray standards, and performance has been improved – not just with quicker startup times, but also when compressing files.
The latest version also promised better support for Windows Libraries when managing files in the File Manager mode.
PowerArchiver 2016 is available now as a free 10-day trial for PCs running Windows XP or later. The full version can be purchased for $22.95/€19.95.

In Quilting-on-the-Go, Carolyn Forster explains how to break large quilt designs down into small, manageable sections that are easily quilted by hand or machine. Using her clear instructions you can piece a block on one outing, quilt it the next. Once you're ready to join the blocks, most of the quilting is already done! In the "Basics" section find everything you need to know to prepare manageable pieces of quilting you can take with you wherever you go. No special equipment needed. The Project section contains 15 lovely quilts created using Quilt-on-the-Go blocks. Each framed block is pieced and quilted individually, using the full-size templates provided. Includes full-size templates, rotary cutting instructions and step by step diagrams and photos. As an extra bonus, the sashing/frame designs suggested for the projects create attractive secondary patterns across the quilt once the blocks are joined.

Last month, we broadcasted our "What's New with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops – Q3 2018 Update" webinar. We covered the latest and greatest features and innovations in our cloud service as well as what's new in our traditional 7.18 and 1808 current releases.
We'd like to thank those of you who attended. We hope you found the information helpful as you begin planning your app and desktop delivery strategy. If you missed the webinar, a recording is available on-demand.
Will the next planned Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops LTSR support Windows Server 2019?Answer: With the 1808 release, we announced Day One support for Windows Server 2019, which released this month. We also announced that the next Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops LTSR is targeted for the second half of 2019. Since the LTSR rolls up all of the latest features and innovations from preceding Current Releases (CRs), the next LTSR will have VDA support for Windows Server 2019.
Are NVENC and H.265 support considered Premium features?Answer: Citrix continues to deliver industry-first graphics-acceleration capabilities for app and desktop virtualization. HDX 3D Pro is a feature of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops (formerly XenApp and XenDesktop) and it contains a set of graphics acceleration technologies designed to optimize the virtualization of rich graphics apps. HDX 3D Pro capabilities, including NVENC support and H.265 encoding capabilities are an entitlement in ALL editions of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops including the Citrix Cloud service.
Can you summarize the Linux VDA updates and give some insights into what's coming?Answer: Linux VDA continues to garner interest from our customers — not only due to the unique demands of Linux users, but also due to the number of recent feature releases. If you've been following the Citrix blog posts about our feature announcements, you'll remember that this year, there were a number of Linux VDA feature updates aimed at security, experience and administrative enhancements, including Adaptive Transport, which improves the end user experience in accessing published Linux apps and desktops across the WAN. Machine Creation Services integration is another feature update that allows Citrix admins to rapidly provision Linux apps and desktops across larger deployments. In the future, we'll be releasing even more enhancements that positively impact user experience, security and administration of Linux VDA. The net result is that you and your customers will have even more choices as to how virtual apps and desktops resources are published. Watch for future "What's New in Citrix Workspace" blog posts for the latest updates on Linux VDA.
Is the ability to see full session RTT (round trip time) values on the roadmap for Citrix Director?Answer: Today, the ability to see full session Round Trip Time data already is part of HDX Insights. It is available to customers using Citrix Application Delivery Management Premium edition (previously NetScaler MAS). More information on this functionality can be found here. To simplify access to this data, we also have plans to add ICA Round Trip monitoring inside a future release of Citrix Analytics.
Will pooled/random desktops be supported for Local Host Cache (LHC) with Citrix Cloud?Answer: Local Cost Cache has been a feature of the on-prem platform since XenApp and XenDesktop 7.12. LHC enables users to access their resources even if the Delivery Controllers or site database is down or unavailable. We have officially introduced this feature to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service. Now, if the Cloud Connectors in the Resource Location lose their connection to the Citrix Cloud control plane, users can still start a new session and reconnect to disconnected apps and desktop sessions. Currently, there are no plans to support Managed/Random desktops with Local Host Cache from Citrix Cloud, as this could be a security risk for customers. The reason relates to users with high-level privileges: they have the potential to access desktops that are not assigned to them and make changes that could introduce risk into the organization's IT environment.
Is Citrix Cloud for Azure Gov only available for U.S. government?Answer: Citrix Cloud for government — including (Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops for government) is only available to U.S. federal, state and local government entities or commercial organizations that work directly with the U.S. federal government. (Commercial organizations must have approval from the Microsoft Azure Government Team in order to qualify to use Citrix Cloud for government).
Will SCOM slowly be deprecated? Will Citrix Director take over?Answer: We have many customers using the Citrix SCOM management packs in both the quarterly and LTSR releases. Today, we have no plans to deprecate this functionality. In the future, however, we do have plans to deliver improved performance and infrastructure reporting in Citrix Analytics.
There may be some overlap, but each performs valuable tasks.
What is the new name for Citrix Workspace Suite licenses?Answer: Citrix Workspace Suite 2018 licensing includes a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop Premium license (on-prem/perpetual/user). In addition, it includes the Citrix Endpoint Management (formerly XenMobile) service per user (Enterprise Transition SKU) license. The license is comprised of both the Citrix Endpoint Management service (cloud) and ShareFile Advanced service (cloud). This new offering is different from the original Workspace Suite bundle that included only on-premises components. Citrix Workspace Suite 2018 provides customers with the ability to deliver the new Workspace app experience because Citrix Endpoint Management service is part of the Citrix cloud-based Workspace Platform. Additionally, Citrix Endpoint Management service offers more UEM features and automated updates/fixes than the legacy on-prem version (XenMobile). The original Citrix Workspace Suite, with only on-prem components/licenses, is still available for customers who are unable to consume any cloud-based services.
What are the latest innovations since the XenApp and XenDesktop 7.15 LTSR?Answer: Release after release, based on feedback from you, we continuously develop product features to address new use cases. Our goal is to enhance the user experience, extend administrative flexibility, and improve the security of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops. We covered many innovations in the webinar such as optimized web-based Microsoft Teams, NVENC and H.265 with Virtual Apps, webcam plug-n-play, and battery status overlay from the local endpoint. This matrix compares XenApp and XenDesktop 7.15 LTSR to recent current releases and highlights the latest capabilities in each Current Release (CR) since the 7.15 LTSR.
Is PVS (Citrix Provisioning) available in Citrix Cloud?Answer: We know that you may want to leverage the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service while running your virtual desktops and virtual application servers on-premises. Now you can leverage Citrix Provisioning within your Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service subscription to provision VDAs when running on-premises workloads. With this new feature, you will be able to use the Citrix Virtual Desktop setup wizard (formerly XenDesktop setup wizard) in the Citrix Provisioning console and the Machine Catalog setup wizard in Studio from Citrix Cloud. Check out the product documentation for more details.
How can admins take advantage of the new Workspace app UI with their on-premises deployments?Answer: Our goal with the new Citrix Workspace is to help organizations transform their businesses and change how users get their work done by giving them access to all their resources from a single location. The Citrix Workspace app does just that. We understand that fully shifting to cloud services doesn't happen overnight, and that there may be reasons for organizations to keep their workloads on-premises. This is why we've developed solutions that give our customers choices. Earlier this year, we announced the availability of Citrix site aggregation. Citrix site aggregation is the feature that allows organizations to bring their existing on-premises virtual apps and desktops into the new Citrix Workspace experience. With this new feature, organizations can institute a trial or purchase other Citrix Cloud services, such as Citrix Files or Citrix Access Control. In doing so, they can incorporate their existing on-prem desktops and apps, giving users access to the new Citrix Workspace experience user interface. There's also another thing that is noteworthy: the new Citrix Workspace app is fully backwards-compatible with on-premises Citrix StoreFront. That means users who update Citrix Receiver to Workspace app will experience little impact to their productivity.
I see that Citrix integrates with Microsoft Skype for Business and Microsoft Teams. Is there any integration with Cisco Jabber?Answer: A key pillar of Citrix HDX technology is Unified Communications. Unified communication (UC) tools are gaining tremendous adoption for collaboration and productivity. In addition to our partnership and integration with Microsoft's UC tools — Skype for Business and Microsoft Teams — we worked closely with Cisco to develop the Virtualization Experience Media Edition (VXME), which is available for download from Cisco. VXME allows you to run Cisco Jabber in your virtual desktop or as a published application. The audio and video processing is offloaded to the endpoint. This improves the user density of your virtual infrastructure, since the CPU-intensive processing is offloaded. It also increases server scalability and provides the best possible experience to your users.
Will the new Citrix Workspace app work with previous releases of XenApp or should we stick with the current client?Answer: We've folded all the capabilities of Citrix Receiver into Citrix Workspace app, and we've added in more workspace capabilities. Citrix Workspace app, as mentioned earlier, is fully backwards compatible with on-premises Citrix StoreFront and with previous versions of XenApp. However, it is important to note that customers running 6.5 or prior versions are encouraged to upgrade to 7.x versions or later, as older versions of XenApp no longer are supported. For a guide on how to upgrade from previous versions to 7.x, check out our dedicated page for details.
Can I do an in-place upgrade to the new 1808 from a 7.6 LTSR installation?Answer: There have been numerous new features and innovations since the XenApp and XenDesktop 7.6 Long Term Service Release (LTSR). Upgrading to Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 1808 will enable you to take advantage of the latest and greatest innovations, including Adaptive Transport, Session Watermarking, Webcam plug-n-play, Local Host Cache, App Groups and Tagging, Zone Preferences, HTML 5 video redirection, Browser Content Redirection, Day One support for Windows Server 2019, and numerous ICA improvements. These feature summaries that compare XenApp and XenDesktop 7.6 LTSR to 7.15 LTSR and compare XenApp and XenDesktop 7.15 LTSR to the recent current releases will give you an overview of the latest capabilities that you can take advantage of after you upgrade from XenApp and XenDesktop 7.6 to Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop 7 1808. Even better, you can perform an in-place upgrade from the 7.6 LTSR to the 1808 CR. Check out this product documentation to get started today.

New Seabourn Venture "Extraordinary Expedition" Itineraries Offer Unforgettable Trips To Antarctica, Amazon
SEATTLE, June 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Seabourn, the ultra-luxury cruise line, has unveiled new "Extraordinary Expedition" itineraries in Antarctica and the Amazon for Seabourn Venture, ideal for travelers seeking a sense of exploration, with voyages scheduled for fall 2022 through 2023. Between November 2022 and April 2023, the line's first of two ultra-luxury purpose-built expedition ships will sail the west coast of South America, cross the Drake Passage to Antarctica, tuck into remote South Georgia and the Falkland Islands, and explore deep into the Amazon River all the way to Peru, with untouched destinations for guests to experience throughout.
The new 2022-2023 itineraries include 15 distinct 10- to 21-day Antarctic and Amazon expeditions, with extended voyage options available up to 30 days in length. All Extraordinary Expeditions will feature a variety of opportunities for travelers to discover diverse wildlife and breathtaking landscapes, and learn about natural wonders, fascinating history, and enduring cultures and traditions.
"Seabourn Venture is the first-ever full luxury, purpose-built expedition ship," said Josh Leibowitz, president of Seabourn. "We are looking forward to returning to South America in 2022 and 2023."
Seabourn expedition itineraries come alive through a world-class expedition team of 26 highly regarded wilderness experts, scientists, historians and naturalists on board. These fascinating, accomplished experts are also part of the Seabourn Conversations program, providing in-depth insights into the history, ecology and culture of the places they visit.
Highlights from Seabourn Venture's itineraries from late fall 2022 into spring 2023 include:
Chilean Fjords, Antarctica, South Georgia & Falkland Islands
Between November 2022 and February 2023, Seabourn Venture will invite travelers on adventures of discovery cruising scenic sounds, fjords, channels and glaciers in Chile, sailing to Antarctica, and crossing back to explore South Georgia and the Falkland Islands. The ship will sail on nine voyages, ranging from 10 to 21 days, to "The Great White Continent" that will include multiple daily operations using the Zodiacs for landings and Zodiac cruises along the Antarctic Peninsula. Optional excursions will also be available, such as kayaking and the ship's submarines, allowing guests to explore the vast frontier below sea level. Guests can look forward to viewing myriad species of penguins, seals and whales; visiting sites of historical and geological interest; gaining firsthand insights into regional scientific research; and enjoying scenic cruising of spectacular waterways and passages.
Two of the Antarctic voyages will also include visits to South Georgia, one of the most far-flung destinations on Earth teeming with massive populations of penguins, fur seals, elephant seals and seabirds. Each of these voyages will also visit the Falkland Islands, located about 400 miles off the southeast coast of South America. Based on the day's weather and most favorable anchorage positions, Seabourn Venture may call at: Saunders Island, the site of Port Egmont, established in 1765 as the first British settlement in the Falklands; Steeple Jason Island, a protected nature reserve highly prized for its exceptional abundance of wildlife, including the world's largest colony of black-browed albatrosses; West Point Island, where guests can meet the Napiers, the island's only occupants and visit rockhopper penguins; and New Island, one of the most remote of the inhabited islands, which lies on the western fringe of the archipelago and supports some of the largest concentrations and diversity of wildlife in the Falklands.
Brazil & The Amazon
In March and April 2023, Seabourn Venture will embark on a series of four 10- to 12-day expedition voyages in Brazil and the Amazon. The ship will visit many colorful colonial cities on the coast of Brazil and sail into the heart of South America through one of the world's greatest rivers, where guests can cruise in Zodiacs along the Amazon River and visit ancient sites and indigenous villages. The voyages will explore a variety of environments shaped by the mighty river itself, cutting through three major regions: Flooded Forests and Blackwater Tributaries – Manaus, Brazil to Rio Jutaí; The Frontier Amazon – Rio Jutaí to Leticia, Colombia; and The Seaport in the Jungle – Leticia to Iquitos, Peru. Guests may also book back-to-back cruises for a longer and more immersive voyage lasting up to 22 days.
Adventures await
Featuring 132 oceanfront suites each, Seabourn Venture and its sister ship are being designed from conception for expedition travel blended with ultra-luxury and personalized service by a world-class team of professionals with great depth of experience in expeditions, hospitality and luxury cruising. Hospitality design icon Adam D. Tihany is fashioning the indoor and outdoor guest areas for the ships.
Both ships will be designed and built for diverse environments to PC6 Polar Class standards and will include a plethora of modern hardware and technology that will extend the ships' global deployment and capabilities. Two custom-built submarines will be carried on board, in addition to expedition kayaks and 24 Zodiacs that can accommodate all onboard guests at once.
