Guns, gene-altering chemicals, and fear are apparently all big business in the flying city of Columbia.
One of the great things about a game like BioShock Infinite, for the player at least, is that by being set in the past - in this case 1912 - it opens the door up to some older styles and designs that you wouldn't normally see in a videogame. It seems that Irrational rather enjoy this aspect of the game too, as it's showing off three pieces of artwork that could have leaped fully formed out of the past.
The first pieces is an advertisement for one of the games many "vigors" - BioShock Infinite's version of the original BioShocks plasmids - and the second is for a repeating rifle, dubbed "the friend of the Indian fighter." The final piece is an example of Founder propaganda, depicting the rebellious Vox Populi faction as sub-humans who must hide from the "Songbird," a huge mechanical bird-like creature who, when it isn't dispensing "justice," also serves as Elizabeth's - the character the player has been sent to rescue - guardian. It can also been seen at the end of the BioShock Infinite gameplay trailer, albeit briefly.
The ads are the work of Irrational artist Mike Swiderek, while the propaganda poster was made by Jorge Lacera. All three will appear in the game, and in the case of the two ads, the items will also be available for the player to use. The player will undoubtedly meet the Songbird as well, but that's probably going to be a slightly more tense encounter. Hopefully, they will also appear in stores one day, as any one of them would look great hanging on the wall in poster form.
BioShock Infinite is scheduled for release on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 some time in 2012.

Wimborne Town Under 10's score sponsorship from Bloor Homes
Wimborne Town under 10's football team has secured sponsorship from national housebuilder, Bloor Homes Southern
Bloor Homes, who is building its Wimborne Chase development off Cranborne Road, provided the donation to help the club purchase new match day kits.
Kieran Burnett, from Wimborne Town FC, said: "We are hugely grateful that Bloor Homes Southern has chosen to sponsor our under 10's with brand new match kits for the new season.
"We are indebted to their sponsorship and for arranging the kit, which the team proudly wear. A local company supporting a grassroots team is invaluable. With the support of Bloor Homes, these young players can enjoy one of their favourite sports."
Lucy Ludlow, Regional Sales Director at Bloor Homes Southern, said: "We are very proud to be supporting Wimborne Town under 10's FC. As a responsible housebuilder, we are committed to working with the local communities in which we develop.
"When we found out about the team's need for a new match day kit, we were keen to help out. We wish the football team the best of luck for this season."
Wimborne Town under 10's FC play their home matches at Ferndown Wayfarers Sports Club in West Moors, Ferndown.
The under 10's team was first established in 2018 but the club dates back to 1878. The boys under 10's team has experienced such a high level of interest, that there are now two teams, both competing in the Dorset Mini League. The team's aim for next season is to move into the Bournemouth league.
Wimborne Chase is set on the northern outskirts of the thriving market town of Wimborne. The stunning collection of homes at Wimborne Chase offers something for singles, couples and families of all sizes. And with a great choice of amenities close to home, plus excellent schools and transport links across Dorset and beyond, this is a wonderful place to call home.

comedian, vaudeville juggler, actor, and writer
William Claude Dukenfield (January 29, 1880 – December 25, 1946), better known as W. C. Fields, was an American comedian, actor, juggler, and writer. Fields's comic persona was a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist who remained a sympathetic character despite his supposed contempt for children and dogs.

Lokeyfly wrote My prism came in. Actually, in my case, the 120 deg. Prism is perfect as my FP8 sits back with my laptop on a slightly elevated shelf. I haven't created any side barriers as you guys have yet, but I stuck a sharpie pen to get the angle I need. It's perfect, for my needs, and where I've placed the Faderport, it is now crystal clear, and it's completely enhanced the meter view to now something usable. Awsome!
I am happy, now when it comes to viewing the FP8.
The pic's look like the ideal solution - maybe Presonus should include a prism in the box!
One week into using this. I am really pleased with the use of a prism. It's made an already great control surface something really viewable. It's like I have this dynamite meter bridge now. I can see the meter detail literally as good as if I were looking directly down at the meters, which was just not ever going to be a usable angle.
Its getting a lot of use. Very clear! Contrast, brightness, clarity totally a non issue. I haven't even thought of adjusting it in any way.
What size/kind Magnetic tape did you use as I'm gonna copycat you !!
I got the prisms and it looks great at the right angle's.
Now I just need to know the thickness and how broad the tape/kind was to do it right.
Se my previous post for pics.
I should note, with my pictures, there's some parallax error, from the ends, that look as though they are not "Head on" when viewed. This is not the case when actually viewing without a camera. There is also a tad of barrel distortion that come from pictures, and obviously that is not the case when viewing.
I'm a bit of a shutterbug, but I wasn't going to break out the big guns for photos. Took the image with my cell phone, like the other guys.
All in all, very clear however one chooses. For any newcomers, just don't buy an 8 inch (20.32 cm) or it will be too large to fit where necessary.
I'm going the easy road and using the Bic Pen.
Glad you're seeing the benefits.
Hey guys. The stuff I used was from the local Lowes hardware store and I ended up using both 1/2" and 3/4" varieties. I attached the 1/2" stuff to one side of each prism, then used superglue to create pairs, join pairs together, then assemble the two halves. I used a straight line on a sheet of paper to align the prisms while assembling. One tip: rather than applying a bead, use an extremely thin coat of the glue and spread it evenly with the applicator before attaching. A bead will go on uneven and ooze out the sides, and trust me - you don't want that with superglue. The tape can then be trimmed however you like using a simple razor. After positioning the prisms at the angle I liked, I then held it in place while attaching the 3/4" tape on each side, effectively creating "legs" to hold the prism upright at the correct angle. Then I razerbladed the edges of the side tape strips into a design that I liked. Once I was sure I loved it (and I DO!), I secured it to the Faderport with E6000 glue - a tough but rubbery glue that (hopefully) shouldn't damage the hardware should I remove it later.
I wanted to use it a while before coming back so I could relay whether or not it was worth the effort, so here's the verdict; I LOVE THIS SETUP!! It's so difficult to show it with a camera, but I can't stress enough how much easier it is to read the displays now. Not to mention I no longer have to tilt the unit while in use, which I can say I definitely prefer.
Was it worth the effort? Absolutely!!
Can't believe one has to go through all this trouble to get the display to work the way it's meant to. I have the FP8 and hoping to go to the 16 but this display issue is a major turn off. I left my MCU to use the FP but I'm so tempted to go back because of the display. I'm sure this has been asked, but who thought out the design excluding what seems to be one of the most important things of a DAW controller. easy to criticize without knowing how much trouble they went through to put the FP8 out.
Outside of the display, the FP8 is amazing. I can't wait to get my FP16.
I honestly don't understand what the issue with the display is in the first place. As far as I'm concerned it works just fine as is.
I don't have an issue with it either. I have a nice little tilt up stand which angles the FP perfectly for me. Others obviously want to see it differently and that's fine too.
Yeah dif'rnt strokes and all. I can see if the FP8 isn't the centerpiece of your workstation but is off to the side or pushed back behind something else like a qwerty or musical keyboard it might be a difficult angle to see clearly. For me it's front and center so not an issue at all. I even gave up on tilting it... just seems more natural sitting flat where I have it.

SOUTHERN JORDAN
On a three-day excursion to southern Jordan, you'll will visit, Petra, Wadi Rum, and Aqaba. During the excursion you will visit different local communities and learn more about community empowerment and climate change impact. Highlights of this excursion include the following:
A treasure of the ancient world, Petra is a UNESCO World Heritage site and has been dubbed one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. After hearing a lecture about Petra, "the Rose-Red City," you will explore the city in small groups to see firsthand the topics of the lecture. The visit will conclude with a debriefing and conversation in Arabic.
Wadi Rum is among the most stunning desertscapes in the world. Experience the exceptional hospitality of the desert people and Bedouin tribes. You may share mint tea or cardamom coffee in Bedouins' tents or join them by the fire under a starry desert sky.
THE DEAD SEA, JESUS' BAPTISM SITE, AND AJLOUN
The Dead Sea is the most spectacular natural landscape in Jordan. In addition to being one of the lowest points on Earth, the Dead Sea is the world's richest source of natural salts.
Jesus' Baptism Site
Al-Maghtas, meaning "baptism" or "immersion" in Arabic, is an archaeological World Heritage site on the east bank of the Jordan River, officially known as Baptism Site or "Bethany Beyond the Jordan." It is considered to be the original location of the baptism of Jesus and the ministry of John the Baptist and has been venerated as such since at least the Byzantine period.
Visit the medieval castle Qalaat Errabadh, built by Muslims to protect the area from invading Crusaders, and stay overnight at the Ajloun lodge nestled among oak, pine, pistachio, and strawberry trees.

Internship & Seminar
Internship & Seminar – syllabus
(ITRN 3005 / 5 Credits)
This seminar consists of an eight-week internship with a local community organization, research organization, business, government agency, or international NGO. The aim of an internship is to enable students to gain valuable experience and enhance their skills in a career field/professional environment related to the core program themes.
SIT will use its extensive network to facilitate an internship placement for students where interviews may be required. The organization and the student's internship activities, including the Internship Learning Agreement, must be approved by SIT's Academic Director. SIT will maintain oversight over internship placements in line with SIT academic policies and student health and security guidelines. Ultimately, each student will need to take responsibility for making optimal use of resources available at the organization and to be proactive in engaging with local experts to achieve internship objectives. Regular reflection and assessment meetings are held with the Academic Director or internship coordinator to review the progress of the internship, learning associated with the internship experience, and to draw out broader issues related to program themes, positionality, culture and ethics in the context of the internship.
Modules will be implemented at weekly reflection meetings. Discussion and reflection sessions take place on a weekly basis. Students are expected to discuss experiences in the internship, reflect on the professional learning process, and respond to any prompts assigned by the internship instructor. These discussion and reflection sessions are key elements for personal, academic, and professional development during the internship.
Students will be informed of the types of internships available and the placement process the first week of the program. Internship placements may include organizations in, community development, women empowerment, environment, economic and political research and studies, social empowerment and refugees.
Beginning Modern Standard Arabic – syllabus

Fertilizers can be harmful to the environment and your landscape if not used properly. When applied at the wrong time or over applied, fertilizers can create salt problems in the soil. They can also affect winter hardiness, exaggerate pest problems and make plants grow excessively (which can mean more mowing too!). Excess nitrogen and phosphorus (two components of fertilizers) can leach out of the soil and pollute groundwater. These two nutrients can also wash off landscapes and pollute surface waters and eventually, the Chesapeake Bay.
Cool season grasses (fescues, bluegrasses, ryegrasses) naturally go into a semi-dormant state during summer's heat and drought. Many Bay-Wise Marylanders take steps to conserve water and mimic Mother Nature by not watering during summer. Others try to keep their lawns growing during this time by watering. If you choose to irrigate, do so only when your lawn and landscape need water. Efficient watering is an important key to reducing runoff and maintaining a healthy Maryland landscape.
Cool season grasses grow rapidly during spring and fall. This is when temperatures are cooler and rainfall is more plentiful. Regular mowing at higher heights (3" to 4") encourages a deeper, more drought- and pest-tolerant root system. A higher cut also shades out weeds. Remove no more than a third of the grass blade when you mow.
Any rain and irrigation water that runs off carries soil, debris, fertilizer and pesticides from your landscape into neighborhood storm drains. These storm drains lead to local streams, rivers, drinking water reservoirs and the Bay. These substances can harm living organisms, habitats and water quality. Reducing runoff from your property minimizes these problems.
Mulching retains soil moisture, moderates soil temperature and helps prevent erosion and weeds. By using mulch you'll use less water, have healthier plants and fewer weeds. Mulch should be three inches or less in depth. Deeper mulch can rob plant roots of water and encourage shallow rooting, which is harmful to plants during drought. Note: Never use freshly ground organic material, like brush or hardwood bark, as mulch. It robs nitrogen from the soil and can cause plant yellowing. Allow these materials to age for at least 6 months before using.
In a Maryland landscape, grass clippings, leaves, and yard trimmings, should be recycled rather than thrown away. This recycling of nutrients completes a natural cycle to soil regenerate and renew soil. Recycling nutrients also reduces the amount of package fertilizer you need to maintain your landscape.
It is unrealistic to strive for an insect and disease-free landscape. Pesticides provide effective treatment of serious pest problems, but they should not be used routinely or indiscriminately. Improper use of pesticides can result in pest resistance and can harm humans, pets, beneficial organisms and the environment. Integrated Pest Management, IPM, is a comprehensive process used to manage pests. It involves an understanding of the life cycle of the pest, other organisms, (like beneficial organisms, our pets and ourselves) and the effects of a pesticide on all of these things. The result is, when confronted with a pest, you should consider all possible ways to control it before doing so.
4. follow-up monitoring and noting what worked and what didn't.
Plants suited to your site will require minimal amounts of water, fertilizer and pesticides; and may provide benefits to your home. A diversity of plants (shade trees, understory trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants) provides an interesting landscape for you, a range of host plants for native wildlife, and reduces the amount of storm water running off your property. Native plants require less fertilizer, watering and maintenance plus they encourage our native wildlife. Judicial placement of shade trees and evergreen plantings can help keep our homes cooler during summer and warmer during winter. Avoid planting invasive plants, which can out-compete native plants in natural areas.
Maryland has a great diversity of wildlife. Provide adequate food, water and shelter to increase the number and variety of species, like birds, butterflies and beneficial insects, which visit your landscape.
Waterfront property owners realize the special contribution our waterways and the Bay make to their quality of life. They should also understand how fragile these natural treasures can be. Waterfront property includes those properties that border even the smallest streams.


Q: How long would a "normal" appointment be?
A: Typically 40-60 minutes unless more extensive cleaning or treatment is needed.
Q: How often do most patients come see the dentist?
A: This really varies from patient to patient. In most cases, we see patients every six months. However, some patients are seen every 3 or 4 months to maintain healthy gums and teeth.
Q: Do you have whitening options?
A: Yes! We have professional options available to meet your needs.
Q: How old should my baby be before I bring him/her to see you?
A: The Academy of Pediatric Dentistry's recommendation is age 1.
Q: What if I'm very, very anxious about my dental visit?
A: Dr. Wagener and our staff are very accustomed to this and do everything possible to make you comfortable. Many patients comment how pleasant their appointment was.
Q: If I just don't like the looks of my teeth, how might you be able to help me?
A: Lots of ways! We may suggest simply one of our whitening options, or possibly composite veneers created here in our office, lab-created porcelain veneers, or crowns. We LOVE making you LOVE your smile!
Q: If I'm missing some teeth, can you help me with that?
A: Absolutely. Your options are many. An implant is often a wonderful way to replace teeth, but there are other options as well, such as bridges, partials, or dentures.
Q: I'm confused about dental insurance. It seems like my plan does not pay as well as it used to.
A: You're probably correct. Unfortunately, dental insurance has not evolved over the years the way medical insurance has. Although dental insurance plans vary greatly, most pay at least a portion of preventative and diagnostic care (exams and cleanings) but then typically pay a much smaller portion of any restorative work such as fillings, etc. Our insurance manager can help you approximate what your plan may or may not pay.

Рі́вень повноти́ безпе́ки або Safety Integrity Level або SIL (скорочення від  — рівень повноти безпеки) — рівень забезпечення цілісності безпеки, який є мірою безпеки при роботі електричного, електронного обладнання, а також, програмованих електронних систем.

Рівень повноти безпеки є дискретним (набуває одного з чотирьох можливих значень) та визначає вимоги до повноти безпеки для функцій безпеки, що ставиться у відповідність Е / Е / РЕ (від  — електричний / електронний /програмований електронний) системам що пов'язані з безпекою. Рівень 4 повноти безпеки характеризує найбільшу повноту безпеки, рівень 1 відповідає найменшій повноті безпеки.

Рівень SIL визначається наробітком до настання несправності/помилки та визначається і характеризується стандартом IEC 61508-1.

Встановлено два види груп рівнів повноти безпеки: для роботи по запитах та для неперервної роботи.

Стандарт IEC 61508-1 (російський аналог ГОСТ Р МЭК 61508-1-2007) визначає наступні рівні SIL:

Таблиця 1 — Планові величини відмов відповідно до рівня безпеки при роботі у режимі малої інтенсивності запитів

Таблиця 2 — Планові величини відмов для рівня безпеки при роботі у режимі високої інтенсивності запитів або у режимі безперервних запитів

Ці рівні вибираються в залежності від тяжкості наслідків, які можуть наступити при неправильному функціонуванні системи.
Рівні повноти безпеки визначають величину допустимого ризику для системи. Вони є мірою ймовірності того, що система буде правильно виконувати свої функції, що впливають на безпеку. Чим вищий рівень повноти безпеки системи, тим менша імовірність її відмови під час виконання функцій безпеки.

Стандарт IEC 61508-5 або його аналог ГОСТ Р МЭК 61508-5 — 2007
встановлює два способи розрахунку рівня ризику: кількісний та якісний.

Оскільки ризик визначається як добуток імовірності виникнення небезпечної ситуації на тяжкість (вартість) наслідків, першою стадією в оцінці ризику є визначення ймовірності виникнення небезпеки. Кількісний метод розрахунку імовірності ґрунтується на аналізі частоти відмов системи.

Кількісний метод, описаний вище, не може бути застосований у випадках, коли ризик (або його частотна складова) не може бути охарактеризованим кількісно. У цьому випадку застосовується метод матриці важкості небезпечних подій (метод графу ризиків), що дозволяє визначити рівень повноти безпеки Е / Е / РЕ системи на основі знання факторів ризику, пов'язаних з керованим обладнанням та системою керування ним.

Рівні SIL використовуються при проектуванні обладнання, що повинно відповідати заданим вимогам функційної безпеки. Норми що знаходять застосування у різних галузях (керування рухом залізничного транспорту, керування виробничими процесами) вказують де і який рівень повинен бути прийнятий, наприклад системи керування рухом на залізниці (EN50129) повинні виконувати норматив SIL 4.

By Kendra Parlock
Longtime neighbor Marcia Ribeiro is hoping to build a garden in Bolton Hill. Ana's Garden will be a tribute to Marcia's mother, Ana, and a memorial for her love for Bolton Hill. Ana passed away from pancreatic cancer last fall.
Landscape architect's rendering of Ana's Garden.
Ana decided to spend her retirement in Bolton Hill with Marcia and her husband Paul Silvestri after having worked as a nurse for 25 years. Many neighbors knew Ana from her walks in the dog park at the end of Mosher. She loved spending time there getting to know the people that passed through and the dogs that ran in the park.
Ana's Garden will be a quiet, reflective space located at the dog park that will enable people to come together as a community during a time when many feel the need to come together more. The project and design was approved by Linden Park Building Management and the MRIA Architectural Review Committee. The space will feature seven trees of different varieties, nine boulders and four custom benches made of cypress, steel and concrete that will be inviting and architecturally interesting.
Bench designs for Ana's Garden.
Fundraising began in March to cover all expenses as well as future maintenance and upkeep. So far Bolton Hill neighbors and friends of Ana have contributed approximately $7500 of the $22,000 that is needed. Marcia is managing the project and has enlisted the help of a landscape designer, artist and fabricator in an organic process of creation and development. The first plantings are scheduled to be installed in October.
Please support the project by donating to Ana's Garden on GoFundMe.com or dropping off a donation at 1422 Bolton St. You can honor the memory of a loved one in the garden with an engraved plaque that will be affixed to one of the nine boulders (available for a $300 donation). Plaques may be installed on on one of the two small benches for a $1200 donation or on one of the two large benches for a $2400 donation.
Please contact Marcia at (443)717-2200 or marciova1962@gmail.com with questions and for more information.

I've got consumers who still use Spring boot 1.5 and wants to use reactive services written in Spring boot 1.5 on the server. We can't upgrade our services to spring boot 2 due to third-party libraries we use. Looking for client examples which consume Flux APIs? Can anyone share the examples?

Floaters are the name for these small dark shapes that appear before your eyes floating through your field of vision. They are clumps of protein. They look like dots, squiggles, strands or any of a hundred other shapes. Though annoying, floaters are harmless, and there are ways to prevent them through proper diet.
Warning: If you suddenly notice new spots in your vision, see your eye doctor right away to rule out serious problems. A sudden increase of floaters can be an indication of a vitreous or retinal detachment. People who are very nearsighted and/or diabetic are particularly prone to floaters and retinal tears. If you suddenly see new floaters, make an appointment with your eye doctor immediately.
Floaters are usually the result of bits of cells that remain in the vitreous humor after birth and float around when the vitreous becomes more liquified later in life. It is reported that over 50% of people over 70 years of age report seeing floaters.

Nightshade, p.1
Part #3 of Night Tales series by Nora Roberts
It was a hell of a place to meet a snitch. A cold night, a dark street, with the smell of whiskey and sweat seeping through the pores of the bar door at his back. Colt drew easily on a slim cigar as he studied the spindly bag of bones who'd agreed to sell him information. Not much to look at, Colt mused—short, skinny, and ugly as homemade sin. In the garish light tossed fitfully by the neon sign behind them, his informant looked almost comical.
But there was nothing funny about the business at hand.
"You're a hard man to pin down, Billings."
"Yeah, yeah …" Billings nibbled on a grimy thumb, his gaze sweeping up and down the street. "A guy keeps healthy that way. Heard you were looking for me." He studied Colt, his eyes flying up, then away, soaring on nerves. "Man in my position has to be careful, you know? What you want to buy, it don't come cheap. And it's dangerous. I'd feel better with my cop. Generally I work through the cop, but I ain't been able to get through all day."
"I'd feel better without your cop. And I'm the one who's paying." To illustrate his point, Colt drew two fifties from his shirt pocket. He watched Billings's eyes dart toward the bills and linger greedily. Colt might be a man who'd take risks, but buying a pig in a poke wasn't his style. He held the money out of reach.
"Talk better if I had a drink." Billings jerked his head toward the doorway of the bar behind them. A woman's laugh, high and shrill, burst through the glass like a gunshot.
"You talk just fine to me." The man was a bundle of raw nerves, Colt observed. He could almost hear the thin bones rattle together as Billings shifted from foot to foot. If he didn't press his point now, the man was going to run like a rabbit. And he'd come too far and had too much at stake to lose him now. "Tell me what I need to know, then I'll buy you a drink."
"You're not from around here."
"No." Colt lifted a brow, waited. "Is that a problem?"
"Nope. Better you aren't. They get wind of you …" Billings swiped the back of his hand over his mouth. "Well, you look like you can handle yourself okay."
"I've been known to." He took one last drag before flicking the cigar away. Its single red eye gleamed in the gutter. "Information, Billings." To show good faith, Colt held out one of the bills. "Let's do business."
Even as Billings's eager fingers reached out, the frigid air was shattered by the shriek of tires on pavement.
Colt didn't have to read the terror in Billings's eyes. Adrenaline and instinct took over, with a kick as quick and hard as a mule's. He was diving for cover as the first shots rang out.
Althea didn't mind being bored. After a rough day, a nice spot of tedium could be welcome, giving both mind and body a chance to recharge. She didn't really mind coming off a tough ten-hour shift after an even more grueling sixty-hour week and donning cocktail wear or slipping her tired feet into three-inch heels. She wouldn't even complain about being stuck at a banquet table in the ballroom of the Brown House while speech after droning speech muddled her head.
What she did mind was having her date's hand slide up her thigh under cover of the white linen tablecloth.
Men were so predictable.
She picked up her wineglass and, shifting in her seat, nuzzled her date's ear. "Jack?"
His fingers crept higher. "Mmm-hmm?"
"If you don't move your hand—say, within the next two seconds—I'm going to stab it, really, really hard, with my dessert fork. It would hurt, Jack." She sat back and sipped her wine, smiling over the rim as he arched a brow. "You wouldn't play racquetball for a month."
Jack Holmsby, eligible bachelor, feared prosecutor and guest of honor at the Denver Bar Association Banquet, knew how to handle women. And he'd been trying to get close enough to handle this particular woman for months.
"Thea …" He breathed her name, gifting her with his most charming, crooked smile. "We're nearly done here. Why don't we go back to my place? We can …" He whispered into her ear a suggestion that was descriptive, inventive and possibly anatomically impossible.
Althea was saved from answering—and Jack was spared minor surgery—by the sound of her beeper. Several of her tablemates began shifting, checking pockets and purses. Inclining her head, she rose.
"Pardon me. I believe it's mine." She walked away with a subtle swish of hips, a long flash of leg. The compact body in the backless purple dress glinting with silver beading caused more than one head to turn. Blood pressures were elevated. Fantasies were woven.
Not unaware, but certainly unconcerned, Althea strode out of the ballroom and into the lobby, toward a bank of phones. Opening her beaded evening bag, which contained a compact, lipstick, ID, emergency cash and her nine-millimeter, she fished out a quarter and made her call.
"Grayson." While she listened, she pushed back her fall of flame-colored hair. Her eyes, a tawny shade of brown, narrowed. "I'm on my way."
She hung up, turned and watched Jack Holmsby hurry toward her. An attractive man, she thought objectively. Nicely polished on the outside. A pity he was so ordinary on the inside.
"Sorry, Jack. I have to go."
Irritation scored a deep line between his brows. He had a bottle of Napoleon brandy, a stack of apple wood and a set of white satin sheets waiting at home. "Really, Thea, can't someone else take the call?"
"No." The job came first. It always came first. "It's handy I had to meet you here, Jack. You can stay and enjoy yourself."
But he wasn't giving up that easily. He dogged her through the lobby and out into the brisk fall night. "Why don't you come by after you've finished? We can pick up where we left off."
"We haven't left off, Jack." She handed her parking stub to an attendant. "You have to start to leave off, and I have no intention of starting anything with you."
She only sighed as he slipped his arms around her. "Come on, Thea, you didn't come here tonight to eat prime rib and listen to a bunch of lawyers make endless speeches." He lowered his head and murmured against her lips, "You didn't wear a dress like that to keep me at arm's length. You wore it to make me hot. And you did."
Mild irritation became brittle and keen. "I came here tonight because I respect you as a lawyer." The quick elbow to his ribs had his breath woofing out and allowed her to step back. "And because I thought we could spend a pleasant evening together. What I wear is my business, Holmsby, but I didn't choose it so that you'd grope me under the table or make ludicrous suggestions as to how I might spend the rest of my evening."
She wasn't shouting, but neither was she bothering to keep her voice down. Anger glinted in her voice, like ice under fog. Appalled, Jack tugged at the knot of his tie and darted glances right and left.
"For God's sake, Althea, keep it down."
"Exactly what I was going to suggest to you," she said sweetly.
Though the attendant was all eyes and ears, he politely cleared his throat. Althea turned to accept her keys. "Thank you." She offered him a smile and a generous tip. The smile had his heart skipping a beat, and he didn't glance at the bill before tucking it into his pocket. He was too busy dreaming.
"Ah … drive carefully, miss. And come back soon. Real soon."
"Thanks." She tossed her hair back, then slid gracefully behind the wheel of her reconditioned Mustang convertible. "See you in court, Counselor." Althea gunned the engine and peeled out.
Murder scenes, whether indoors or out, in an urban, suburban or pastoral setting, had one thing in common: the aura of death. As a cop with nearly ten years' exp
erience, Althea had learned to recognize it, absorb it and file it away, while going about the precise and mechanical business of investigation.
When Althea arrived, a half block had been secured. The police photographer had finished recording the scene and was already packing up his gear. The body had been identified. That was why she was here.
Three black-and-whites sat, their lights flashing blue and their radios coughing static. Spectators— for death always drew them—were straining against the yellow police tape, greedy, Althea knew, for a glimpse of death to reaffirm that they were alive and untouched.
Because the night was cool, she grabbed the wrap she'd tossed into the backseat of her car. The emerald-green silk kept the chill off her arms and back. Flashing her badge to the rookie handling crowd control, she slipped under the barricade. She was grateful when she spotted Sweeney, a hard-bitten cop who had twice her years on the job and was in no hurry to give up his uniform.
"Lieutenant." He nodded to her, then took out a handkerchief and made a valiant attempt to clear his stuffy nose.
"What have we got here, Sweeney?"
"Drive-by." He stuffed the handkerchief back into his pocket. "Dead guy was standing in front of the bar, talking." He gestured to the shattered window of the Tick Tock. "Witnesses say a car came by, moving north, fast. Sprayed the area with bullets and kept going."
She could still smell the blood, though it was no longer fresh. "Any bystanders hit?"
"Nope. Couple of cuts from flying glass, that's all. They hit their mark." He glanced over his shoulder, and down. "He didn't have a chance, Lieutenant. Sorry."
"Yeah, me too." She stared down at the form sprawled on the stained concrete. There'd been nothing much to him to begin with, she thought. Now there was less. He'd been five-five, maybe a hundred and ten soaking wet, spindly bones and had had a face even a mother would have been hard-pressed to love.
Wild Bill Billings, part-time pimp, part-time grifter and full-time snitch.
And, damn it, he'd been hers.
"Forensics?"
"Been and gone," Sweeney confirmed. "We're ready to put him on ice."
"Then do it. Got a list of witnesses?"
"Yeah, mostly useless. It was a black car, it was a blue car. One drunk claims it was a chariot driven by flaming demons." He swore with inventive expertise, knowing Althea well enough not to worry about her taking offense.
"We'll take what we can get." She scanned the crowd—bar types, teenagers looking for action, a scattering of the homeless and—
Her antenna vibrated as she locked in on one man. Unlike the others, he wasn't goggle-eyed with either revulsion or excitement. He stood at his ease, his leather bomber jacket open to the wind, revealing a chambray shirt, a glint of silver on a chain. His rangy build made her think he'd be fast on his feet. Snug, worn jeans rode down long legs and ended at scuffed boots. Hair that might have been dark blond or brown ruffled in the breeze and curled well over his collar.
He smoked a thin cigar, his eyes scanning the scene as hers had. The light wasn't good, but she decided he looked tanned, which suited the sharply defined face. The eyes were deep-set, and the nose was long, and just shy of being narrow. The mouth was strong, the kind that looked as though it could thin into a sneer easily.
Some instinct had her dubbing him a pro before his eyes shifted and locked on hers with an impact like a bare-fisted punch.
"Who's the cowboy, Sweeney?"
"The— Oh." Sweeney's tired face creased in what might have been a smile. Damned if she hadn't called it, he thought. The guy looked as though he should be wearing a Stetson and riding a mustang. "Witness," he told her. "Victim was talking to him when he got hit."
"Is that so?" She didn't look around when the coroner's team dealt with the body. There was no need to.
"He's the only one to give us a coherent account." Sweeney pulled out his pad, wet his thumb and flipped pages. "Says it was a black '91 Buick sedan, Colorado plates Able Charlie Frank. Says he missed the numbers 'cause the plate lights were out and he was a little busy diving for cover. Says the weapon sounded like an AK-47."
"Sounded like?" Interesting, she thought. She'd kept her eyes level with her witness's. "Maybe—" She broke off when she spotted her captain crossing the street. Captain Boyd Fletcher walked directly to the witness, shook his head, then grinned and enveloped the other man in the masculine equivalent of an embrace. There was a lot of back-thumping.
"Looks as though the captain's handling him for now." Althea pocketed her curiosity as she would a treat to be saved for later. "Let's finish up here, Sweeney."
Colt had watched her from the moment one long, smooth leg swung out of the door of the Mustang. A lady like that was worth watching—well worth it. He'd liked the way she moved—with an athletic and economical grace that wasted neither time nor energy. Certainly he'd liked the way she looked. Her neat, sexy little body had just enough curves to whet a man's appetite, and with all that green-and-purple silk rippling in the wind … The sunburst of hair, blowing away from a cool cameo face, brought much more interesting things to a man's mind than his grandmother's heirloom jewelry.
It was a cold night, and one look at that well-packed number had Colt thinking about heat.
It wasn't such a bad way to keep warm while he waited. He wasn't a man who waited well under the best of circumstances.
He hadn't been particularly surprised to see her flash ID to the baby-faced cop at the barricade. She carried authority beautifully on her luscious swimmer's shoulders. Idly lighting a cigar, he decided she was an assistant DA, then realized his error when she went into conference with Sweeney.
The lady had cop written all over her.
Late twenties, he figured, maybe five-four without those ankle-wrecking heels, and a tidy one-ten.
They sure were making cops in interesting packages these days.
So he waited, sizing up the scene. He didn't have any feelings one way or the other about the remains of Wild Bill Billings. The man was no good to him now.
He'd dig up something, or someone, else. Colt Nightshade wasn't a man to let murder get in his way.
When he felt her watching him, he drew smoke in lazily, chuffed it out. Then he shifted his gaze until it met hers. The tightening in his gut was unexpected—it was raw and purely sexual. The one fleeting instant when his mind was wiped clean as glass was more than unexpected. It was unprecedented. Power slapped against power. She took a step toward him. He let out the breath he'd just realized he was holding.
His preoccupation made it easy for Boyd to come up behind him and catch him unawares.
"Colt! Son of a bitch!"
Colt turned, braced and ready for anything. But the flat intensity in his eyes faded into a grin that might have melted any woman within twenty paces.
"Fletch." With the easy warmth he reserved for friends, Colt returned the bear hug before stepping back to take stock. He hadn't seen Boyd in nearly ten years. It relieved him to see that so little had changed. "Still got that pretty face, don't you?"
"And you still sound like you've just ridden in off the range. God, it's good to see you. When'd you get into town?"
"Couple of days ago. I wanted to take care of some business before I got in touch."
Boyd looked past him to where the coroner's van was being loaded. "Was that your business?"
"Part of it. I appreciate you coming down like this."
"Yeah." Boyd spotted Althea, acknowledging her with an imperceptible nod. "Did you call a cop, Colt, or a friend?"
Colt looked down at the stub of his cigar, dropped it near the gutter and crushed it with his boot. "It's handy, you being both."
"Did you kill that guy?"
It was asked so matter-of-factly, t
hat Colt grinned again. He knew Boyd wouldn't have turned a hair if he'd confessed then and there. "Nope."
Boyd nodded again. "Going to fill me in?"
"Why don't you wait in the car? I'll be with you in a minute."
"Captain Boyd Fletcher." Colt shook his head and chuckled. Though it was after midnight, he was as alert as he was relaxed, a cup of bad coffee in his hand and his scruffy boots propped on Boyd's desk. "Ain't that just something?"
"I thought you were raising horses and cattle in Wyoming."
"I do." His voice was a drawl, with the faintest whisper of a twang. "Now and again I do."
"What happened to the law degree?"
"Oh, it's around somewhere."
"And the air force?"
"I still fly. Just don't wear a uniform anymore. How long's it going to take for that pizza to get here?"
"Just long enough for it to be cold and inedible." Boyd leaned back in his chair. He was comfortable in his office. He was comfortable on the street. And, as he had been twenty years ago, in their prep school days, he was comfortable with Colt.
"You didn't get a look at the shooter?"
"Hell, Fletch, I was lucky to make the car before I was diving for cover and chewing asphalt. Not that that's going to help much. Odds are it was stolen."
"Lieutenant Grayson's tracking it. Now, why don't you tell me what you were doing with Wild Bill?"
"He contacted me. I've bee—" He broke off when Althea strolled in. She hadn't bothered to knock, and she was carrying a flat cardboard box.
"You two order pizza?" She dropped the box onto Boyd's desk, held out a hand. "Ten bucks, Fletcher."
"Althea Grayson, Colt Nightshade. Colt's an old friend." Boyd dug ten dollars out of his wallet. After folding the bill neatly and tucking it in a pocket of her purse, she set her beaded bag on a stack of files.
"Mr. Nightshade."
"Ms. Grayson."
"Lieutenant Grayson," she corrected. Popping up the lid on the box, she perused the contents, chose a slice. "I believe you were at my crime scene."
"Sure did look that way." He lowered his legs so that he could lean forward and take a piece himself. He caught her scent over the aroma of cooling sausage pizza. It was a whole lot more tantalizing.
"Thanks," she murmured when Boyd passed her a napkin. "I wondered what you were doing there, getting shot at with my snitch."
Colt's eyes narrowed. "Your snitch?"
"That's right." Like his hair, his eyes couldn't seem to decide what color they should be, Althea thought. They were caught somewhere between blue and green. And at the moment they were as cold as the wind whipping at the window.
"Bill told me he tried to reach his police contact off and on all day."
"I was in the field."
Colt's brow arched as he skimmed his gaze over the swirl of emerald silk. "Some field."
"Lieutenant Grayson spent all day putting the cap on a drug operation," Boyd interjected. "Now, kids, why don't we start over, and at the beginning?"
"Fine." Setting her half-eaten slice down, Althea wiped her fingers, then removed her wrap. Colt clenched his teeth to keep his tongue from falling out. Because she was turned away from him, Colt had the painful pleasure of gauging just how alluring a naked back could be when it was slim, straight and framed in purple silk.
After laying her coat over a file cabinet, Althea reclaimed her pizza and sat on the corner of Boyd's desk.
She knew just what she did to a man, Colt realized. He could see that smug, faintly amused female knowledge in her eyes. Colt had always figured every woman knew her own arsenal down to the last eyelash, but it was tough on a man when the woman was as heavily armed as this.
"Wild Bill, Mr. Nightshade …" Althea began. "What were you doing with him?"
"Talking." He knew his answer was obstinate, but at the moment he was trying to judge whether there was anything between the sexy lieutenant and his old friend. His old married friend, Colt mused. He was relieved, and more than a little surprised not to scent even a whiff of attraction between them.
"About?" Althea's voice was still patient, even pleasant. As if, Colt thought, she were questioning a small boy who was mentally deficient.

Q: Aquire a "network" lock that locks wifi when it's used, but doesn't when 3G is used? Currently I have this in my code:
WifiManager.WifiLock wifiLock = ((WifiManager) context
    .getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE))
    .createWifiLock(WifiManager.WIFI_MODE_FULL, "MyWifiLock");
wifiLock.aquire();

However my app uses "any" type of network. When there's no Wifi connection it automatically uses 3G data. Is there a way to optimize this code somehow so that it only locks WiFi if it's actually being used? The only way I can think of doing it is to change the above code to something like:
PreferenceManager
    .getDefaultSharedPreferences(getContext())
    .edit()
    .putBoolean(PREF_WIFI_LOCK_NEEDED, true)
    .apply();

and creating some NetworkStateReceiver that listens to WifiManager.NETWORK_STATE_CHANGED_ACTION and/or ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts and aquire/release the lock somehow (and probably saving the lock to a static member of my Application?)
Is there a recommended way to do this?

The Iraq Household Socio-Economic Survey condu cted in 2006-07 (IHSES 2007), was Iraq's first nationwide income and expenditure survey since 1988. Based on the model of the Living Standards Measurement Surveys, it covered more than 18,000 households, collected detailed data on all aspects of household income and expenditure and generated information on a wide variety ofsocio-economic indicators. It also formed the basis for updating the Consumer Price Index (CPI), from an outdated index based in 1990 to a revised index with the base year of 2007.Detailed analysis of poverty, its incidence, characteristics, determinantsand consequences, was undertaken using this comprehensive survey. Under the overall guidance of the Poverty Reduction Strategy High Committee (PRSHC) and a technical sub-committee, a poverty line was defined and adopted by the Council of Ministers. Detailed analysis of IHSES data is documented in the World Bank's poverty assessment for Iraq, Confronting poverty in Iraq, and informed thenew National Strategy for Poverty Reduction, which was adopted by the Council of Ministers in late 2009.
Despite being an oil-rich, lower-middle income country, poverty rema ins prevalent in Iraq. This rapid review looks at the recent literature on poverty in Iraq and identifies the barriers to, and opportunities for, poverty reduction and eradication.
3.9 per cent of people in Iraq are living in extreme poverty (2012). 18.9 per cent live below the national poverty line (2012), with greater rural poverty than urban poverty. 11.6 per cent of people in Iraq are multi-dimensionally poor (2011).
Poverty is significantly higher among larger households, those with less educated heads, women and the young.
There are high poverty headcount rates in remote, rural, and sparsely populated areas, although urban and semi-urban areas are often host to more poor people than the poorest parts because of the population size.
Every day, Iraq inches closer to hunger. The United Nations esti mates that approximately 4.4 million people across Iraq require food assistance. About 30 percent of Iraqis live below the national poverty line, and this number is much higher in the poorest districts. These communities are already struggling with limited resources and basic foodstuffs, a situation made worse by the growing number of internally displaced persons (IDPs). The country faces a stark and multifaceted food security challenge. In the short term, protracted conflict is generating localized food shortages. In the longer term, inflexible policies and government illiquidity are leading to decreased domestic food production and higher import dependency.
10 April 2017 – Warning that deepening food insecurity in Iraq could leave more than half the population facing "unprecedented levels" of vulnerability, the United Nations emergency food relief agency today called for improving nutrition awareness and strengthening social safety nets and livelihoods in rural areas, to avoid a hunger crisis in the country.
In its Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analysis, prepared jointly with the Iraqi Government, the UN World Food Programme (WFP) also underlined the need to improve access to education, especially for girls, as an important component in the fight against hunger.
The study – one of the most robust technical food security studies ever conducted in Iraq – was conducted prior to the recent offensive in Mosul and does not capture the food security situation among people fleeing these conflict areas. Data collection was concluded in 2016 and included first hand surveys with more than 20,000 families in urban and rural areas as well as with those who are internally displaced.
The agriculture sector is vital to Iraq's economy and has be en the second largest contributor to the country's gross domestic product (GDP). The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) has escalated armed activities in the summer of 2014 at a particularly crucial time in the agricultural calendar, leading to significant damage and loss to the sector.Harvested wheat, barley and vegetables were lost due to population displacements, looting and the burning of grain bins. Farmers were unable to plant for the next agricultural season. According to a research conducted in March 2016, Iraq has lost 40 percent of agricultural production since ISIL began occupying some of the most important agricultural areas in 2014, with damages continuing from the current armed conflict.In this context, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has conducted an agricultural damage and loss needs assessment across six of Iraq's 18 governorates – Anbar, Babil, Diyala, Ninewa, Salah al-Din and Wassit. Between December 2016 and January 2017, the assessment collected field data through community-level focus group discussions and key informant interviews.
BAGHDAD – More than half of Iraqi families are at risk of food insecurity and can no longe r absorb any further shocks such as conflict or increases in basic food prices, a joint WFP-Iraqi Government food security report said today.
The humanitarian crisis in Iraq continues to be one of the larg est and most complex in the world, with over 3 million Iraqis displaced since 2014 and the country hosting nearly 250 000 Syrian refugees. The needs of these displaced populations as well as of Iraqis indirectly affected by the crisis are enormous. According to the 2017 Humanitarian Response Overview, 11 million Iraqis will need humanitarian assistance in 2017. This number includes an estimated 3.2 million that may need assistance with food as well as 1.5 million individuals expected to face severe food insecurity. In response to these needs, humanitarian actors continue to provide life-saving assistance to those most affected by the crisis while laying a foundation for post-conflict development through interventions aimed at early recovery and resilience.
Humanitarian assistance efforts in the first quarter of 2017 were largely focused on the needs of populations displaced from operations to retake Mosul from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). From the beginning of operation in October 2016 to 30 March of this year, approximately 368 000 Mosul residents had been displaced. These newly displaced populations, comprised of households that have already exhausted their coping capacities following years of conflict, have primarily sought refuge in camps, where they have had access to vital humanitarian assistance. Approximately 81 000 of these residents who fled have returned to the city, where they have had to contend with the destruction brought about by the conflict as well as wait for markets and services to rebound. That said, already in April, with the consolidation of government control of east Mosul, markets are quickly restarting, to the point that multisectoral cash programming is commencing. However, for the residents of Mosul that remained throughout the fighting, particularly in the western half of the city, ensuring basic levels of access to food has been a struggle, with markets experiencing severe shortages and channels for humanitarian aid cut off.
The 2016 Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analysis (CFSVA) was conducted during a new period of socio-economic uncertainty in Iraq. Thus, in addition to providing updated baseline documentation of Iraqi food security, it serves other important purposes, providing primary data for assessing the impact of the recent macro-economic slowdown on household food security, and calling attention to impacts on food available through Iraq's Public Distribution System (PDS). It also highlights the population's food security needs given the recent sectarian-driven conflicts that have caused socio-political and economic disorder among communities and large-scale population displacement throughout the country since they began in 2014.
Recent macroeconomic trends and conflict set the context of the 2016 CFSVA Iraq ranks as a middle-income country on the Human Development Index (HDI) with a population of 37.8 million that, according to 2016 estimates, is increasing at a rate of 2.5 percent each year. It is largely self-sufficient in the production of domestic vegetables, fruit and meat, and has been able to meet cereal requirements mainly through imports.
