Played over a 5x5 symbol grid for bets between 0.20 and 400, clusters of 6 or more matching symbols lying either vertically or horizontally adjacent to each other, form wins of up to 6,000x your stake.
This is a medium-high variance slot with an RTP of 96.3%. The higher volatility in the swing of the wins means that the degree of risk involved in play is rather high, as wins do not occur very regularly. Fine bankroll management or a large purse may circumvent the drier base gameplay and see you through to the main feature, which is where you can win well indeed.
The game launches you into a relic hunting adventure, which sees you reap rewards while discovering lost treasures of untold worth. The reels are nestled on the temple floor, where it is clear that someone has excavated the ground. To the left of the reels are a tent and a burning fire, where your camp is set. To the right of the reels is some excavation apparatus to help you get the job done of uncovering riches. There is money to be found in this game if you are patient.
The orchestral soundtrack is a suitable tune for an epic adventure film, where the good guy always wins. The question is then - are you good? Unfortunately, in real life, wins don't always pay out to the heroes. The sound of a procession in the track is a very good sign though, as it signals the fact that a win has just boosted your bankroll.
The game symbols complete the story and tell of the reason why such a tomb-robbing endeavour is needed. They are rendered in great detail and become the absolute focal point of the game. The four high-value symbols include various relics of worth, including A golden snake coiled around a red stone, a priceless bracelet caked in gold and silver, a Spartan-like warrior helmet, and a dagger and sheath.
The lower valued items are traditional card suit icons (heart, spade, diamond, club) made of precious gems, aptly in keeping with the theme. Usually, reverting to generic reel symbols in games of this calibre is a poor finish to a great end, However, the way in which they have been rendered and adapted to this game theme is to be admired. You get the sense of escapism from the rest of the symbols and visuals but are reminded of the fact that you are indeed gambling when met with these symbols.
There is no Wild symbol in the base game until the features begin triggering. This icon will substitute for all standard gaming symbols to try and complete clusters and award wins. The game scatter is some flying mechanical artefact with the word 'Scatter' embossed in it. This icon is key to triggering the main feature in the game.
A game of such magnitude, which is developed by the leading game manufacture in the igaming market, carries with it the pressure to perform. Modern gamers will often judge performance on the types of special features offered in the game. Fortunately, NetEnt has come to the party yet again, to provide both plentiful base game features, as well as a bonus round with some additional spice.
There are three randomly triggered features that can appear on the screen after any base game win.
• Coin Win: Here, the game will award between a 3x and 30x multiplier to your current stake.
• Extra Wilds: Up to 15 extra Wilds may fall onto positions on the grid where there is no winning combination, in hopes of creating extra wins.
• Extra Scatter: One of the symbols in the winning combination may turn into an extra scatter. This will aid you in triggering the main feature.
To trigger the main feature, you will need to land 3 scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5. This will award you 10 free spins which will get underway immediately.
• Extra Free Spin: One extra spin will be awarded to the tally in the feature.
• Sticky Wild: A sticky Wild will be introduced to the grid and will remain in place while the reel set respins.
• Coin Win: This will reward you with an instant cash prize of between 3x and 30x your stake.
In order to hit the jackpot in this cluster pay game, you will need to will need to fill the grid with either the coiled snake symbol or the bracelet icon. One of these symbols matched 25 times over the screen will then pay out a whopping 6,000 times your stake.
Many of the symbols can pay out well. Even the lowest 6 cluster match will pay double your stake back to you.
From the start, the 3D visuals reveal that the game you are about to play is a premium quality slot. The crisp graphics and engaging sounds are a joy to watch and listen to, especially when the procession music signals a cluster win.
We have enjoyed many of the cluster games by NetEnt, as the engine provides something a little out of the norm. It provides an adequate engagement for the player wanting to try something with a different sort of spin.
The high-stakes settings along with the higher variance of this game, make the slot a high roller's paradise. A bigger bankroll is needed to walk away with big wins here, as players will need to be able to see themselves through dry spells in wait for those sporadic winning sprees.


Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools bring together students with and without intellectual disabilities through education, sports and youth leadership to provide them with the knowledge, attitudes and skill necessary to create and sustain school communities that promote acceptance, respect and human dignity.
Through data collected, Special Olympics has learned that in order to be transformative within schools, state programs need to go beyond simply providing students the opportunity to engage in single, Special Olympics-specific initiatives. It is the connection between Special Olympics initiatives, along with the youth and schools' involvement in the design and implementation of Unified Champion Schools; that can foster a more inclusive and welcoming environment for students with intellectual disabilities.
We also understand how important it is for Special Olympics Michigan to collaborate with educators in identifying what role Unified Champion Schools can play in meeting their state, district and individual school's strategic goals, whether it be promoting school climate, developing physical fitness, building character, preventing bullying, enhancing student engagement, or any other important school reform.
What is a Special Olympics Unified Champion School?
A sustaining Special Olympics Unified Champion School is a combination of at least three components; sports, youth leadership/advocacy, and a school-wide activity. A Unified Champion School there is an understanding that this is not just an incident or event that happens for one day, or a single experience, but rather year-long or seasonal activities. In a Unified Champion School there is an expectation that acceptance and inclusion are everyday occurrences that change entire schools and impact the whole student body.

California to Hold Direct Contractors Jointly Liable for Subcontractor's Unpaid Wages and Fringe Benefits
By Cary G. Palmer & Sierra Vierra on November 10, 2017
Posted in California, Wage and Hour
Beginning with contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2018, direct (general) contractors in California will be held jointly liable for their subcontractors' unpaid employee wages, fringe benefit or other benefit payments or contributions under Assembly Bill 1701, signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown on October 14th. This joint liability requirement is codified in Labor Code Section 218.7.
The law does not apply to individuals performing work under contracts with the State of California, special districts, municipalities or political subdivisions. Furthermore, the law does not provide a private right of action against the direct contractor. Instead, the law may be enforced by the Labor Commissioner, joint labor-management cooperation committees or labor unions. The Commissioner may recover unpaid wages and benefits through an administrative hearing, a citation or a civil suit, while joint labor-management cooperation committees and labor unions may recover damages solely through civil suits. The latter two groups also may recover attorney's fees and costs. The statute of limitations for bringing a claim is one year, which begins to run when the completion of the direct contract is recorded, when cessation of work on the direct contract is recorded or when the actual work covered by the direct contract is completed, whichever is earlier.
As a means of providing some protection to direct contractors, the law implements record-production requirements to assist them in auditing their subcontractors' wage and benefits compliance. At the request of a direct contractor, a subcontractor must produce payroll records with sufficient information to determine whether the subcontractor is fulfilling its obligation to pay employee wages, fringe benefits and other benefits. Also upon request, the subcontractor must provide contract-specific information, such as the project name; the subcontractor's name and address; identification of the entity for whom the subcontractor is directly working; the anticipated start date, duration and estimated journeymen and apprentice hours of the subcontract; and contact information for its own subcontractors on the project. A subcontractor's failure to provide the requested information does not eliminate the direct contractor's joint liability but does entitle the direct contractor to withhold payment of sums owed to the subcontractor as "disputed" until the requested information is provided.
AB 1701 creates the potential for significant financial exposure to direct contractors, as it will require them to act as guarantors not only of their own employees' wages and benefits, but those of their subcontractors' employees, their sub-subcontractors' employees, and so on. If you have any questions regarding compliance with this new law or any other wage and hour issue, please contact the Jackson Lewis attorney(s) with whom you work.

Q: XPath. Determining the row of a scraped table I am having a problem creating an INSERT statement using XPath.  Here is my table:

    row1 cell1
    row1 cell2
    row1 cell3

    row2 cell1
    row2 cell2
    row2 cell3

And the output would ideally be this:
INSERT INTO database_table (column1, column2, column3) VALUES ('row1 cell1', 'row1 cell2', 'row1 cell3');
INSERT INTO database_table (column1, column2, column3) VALUES ('row2 cell1', 'row2 cell2', 'row2 cell3');
The code I am using is this:
$my_xpath_query = "//table//td[contains(@class, 'messagecellbody')]";
$result_rows = $xpath->query($my_xpath_query);

foreach ($result_rows as $result_object) {
    echo "'" . $result_object->nodeValue . "'";
}

This finds each  correctly, but output is the cell contents of all 6 cells.  I don't know how to break it on each row (so I can echo 'INSERT INTO database_table' etc.)
If I insert an extra parameter, I can filter it by column number e.g. the following will give me the first column
$my_xpath_query = "//table//td[contains(@class, 'messagecellbody')][1]";

but the problem remains of not knowing when the row ends and another one starts.  Without this, it is difficult to create my INSERT statement.

A: Maybe try instead getting the TR rows as individual objects in your Xpath search.  Are there any TR elements whose children you don't wish to include?
Then you would be able to get the child nodes of those objects (i.e. the TD elements you're looking for).
Something like:

$my_xpath_query = "//table//tr";
$result_rows = $xpath->query($my_xpath_query);

foreach ($result_rows as $result_object) {
    foreach($result_object->childNodes as $td) {
         echo "'" . $td->nodeValue . "'";
    }
}

I haven't tested that - but I think something like that might solve your problem.

Training partnership helps fill jobs in Ohio
Dayton Daily News – Thousands of people in the region remain unemployed even though 68,000 Ohio jobs have gone unfilled. Programs that train dislocated workers in growing industries such as bioscience can help close the gap, said Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio.
Brown on Tuesday highlighted the work of Ohio Bioworkforce Training Partnership. It is a collaboration of BioOhio — a nonprofit focused on growing the state's bioscience industry — and six community colleges in the state, including Cincinnati State Technical and Community College and Sinclair Community College of Dayton. Colleges in the partnership offer short-term training in the bioscience industry.
These types of short-term work force development programs that focus on industry-specific training can help fill available jobs because some of the people who are unemployed don't have the skills to do them, Brown said.
He spoke Tuesday in a bioscience lab at Cincinnati State's campus about his plans to reintroduce the Strengthening Employment Clusters to Organize Regional Success Act, which would give work force development funding to regional organizations to grow industry clusters. Brown said he plans to include the act in a bill this year to reauthorize the federal Workforce Investment Act.

Le tre del mattino è un romanzo scritto da Gianrico Carofiglio e pubblicato da Einaudi editore nel 2017. Narra di un inconsueto viaggio a Marsiglia compiuto da un padre e un figlio durante il quale i due si conoscono davvero, per la prima volta. Il titolo deriva dalla frase sopracitata del libro Tenera è la notte di Francis Scott Fitzgerald.

Trama

La storia è narrata in prima persona da Antonio, un uomo sui cinquant'anni che, attraverso un lungo flashback, racconta un episodio avvenuto molti anni prima.

La vicenda si svolge negli anni ottanta. Ragazzo timido e solitario, Antonio è figlio di genitori separati che, per trovare una cura all'epilessia idiopatica del figlio, decidono di portarlo in Francia a Marsiglia, per sottoporlo ad una visita dal dottor Gastaut, un luminare del settore.
Dopo una serie di esami e di controlli, il dottore raccomanda ai genitori di riportare il figlio (ormai sulla via della guarigione) tre anni dopo per verificare lo stato della sua malattia.

Passati tre anni Antonio, che ha ormai raggiunto la maggiore età, torna a Marsiglia, accompagnato solo dal padre, per ascoltare il responso finale del dottore, il quale sostiene che ormai il ragazzo è praticamente guarito ma che, per essere sicuro della definitiva scomparsa della malattia, dovrà sottoporsi "alla prova da scatenamento" che consiste nello stare sveglio per due giorni di seguito, in modo tale da stressare il fisico al limite.
In caso non si fossero presentate crisi in quei due giorni, Antonio poteva dirsi completamente guarito.

Durante questi due giorni Antonio e il padre visitano la città francese e iniziano a parlarsi e a confidarsi liberamente, senza più quell'imbarazzo che da sempre aveva caratterizzato il loro rapporto.
La sera, a cena, il padre racconta al figlio tutto ciò che non ha mai avuto il coraggio (o l'occasione) di dirgli; di come ha conosciuto sua madre, del rapporto con la sua età e con il suo lavoro, della sua giovinezza, delle proprie speranze, illusioni, paure, mentre di notte i due si ritrovano in un locale dove si suona il jazz e dove il padre si esibisce al pianoforte sotto gli occhi stupiti di Antonio, il quale lo ha convinto a suonare di fronte a tutti i presenti.

La volontà di confidarsi e di raccontarsi di Antonio e del padre, che sembrano quasi tentare di recuperare il tempo perduto, li accompagna anche il giorno seguente, speso tra una visita alla chiesa di Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde e una gita tra le acque della costa marsigliese. Alla Calanque de Morgiou, una spiaggia non lontana dalla città, fanno la conoscenza di Adèle e Lucie, due ragazze lesbiche provenienti da Tolosa, che dopo aver passato la giornata con loro, decidono di invitarli ad una festa tenuta, quella sera stessa, da una loro amica. I due accettano l'invito e si preparano ad affrontare quella che sarà l'ultima notte a Marsiglia prima del ritorno a casa.

Padre e figlio, che vengono accolti dalla padrona di casa Marianne, una ragazza di 37 anni che parla perfettamente l'italiano, trascorrono la serata mangiando cibo della cucina magrebina, bevendo vino e godendosi la festa, sempre più stanchi e spossati dal sonno. Quando tutti gli altri ospiti se ne sono andati, Marianne si trattiene con loro e in particolare con Antonio che le spiega l'irreale situazione nella quale si sono venuti a trovare.
La ragazza gli dice che si tratta di balikwas, ovvero un salto in un'altra situazione, la quale ci porta a vedere le cose che siamo abituare a conoscere in modo differente, che descrive al meglio ciò che hanno vissuto padre e figlio in quei giorni. In seguito i due hanno un rapporto sessuale, mentre il padre di Antonio, ormai sfinito, è vinto dal sonno.

Padre e figlio abbandonano la casa di Marianne solo all'alba per dirigersi prima all'albergo e poi allo studio del dottor Gastaut, il quale conferma la completa guarigione del ragazzo. Antonio è quindi libero di tornare a casa, felice sia per la fine della malattia, ma soprattutto per il rapporto instaurato con il padre.

Dopo pochi mesi però, quest'ultimo viene a mancare a causa di un malore che lo colpisce durante una lezione all'università. Lascia una lettera nella quale scrive dell'imprevedibile avventura avuta a Marsiglia con il figlio e di quanto tempo ancora avrebbe avuto per parlare con lui.

La lettera termina con una frase piuttosto nota di John von Neumann, un grande matematico del secolo scorso.

Questa stessa frase verrà ricopiata da Antonio nel muro del suo studio, dopo essere diventato professore all'università. Si scopre quindi che il ragazzo, dopo quel folle viaggio, ha deciso di ripercorrere le orme del padre.

Ambientazioni

La vicenda è ambientata quasi interamente a Marsiglia, ad inizio anni 80. Inizialmente la città si presenta agli occhi dei due protagonisti come inospitale e pericolosa, con una massiccia presenza di prostitute e popolazione nordafricana, soprattutto nella zona del Vieux Port e del Panier.

Tuttavia con il passare del tempo i due cambiano atteggiamento nei confronti della città che, alla fine, si trasforma in un luogo quasi familiare. Antonio decide di descrivere gli aspetti negativi di Marsiglia nella parte iniziale del racconto, quando ancora non ha raggiunto con il padre la complicità che caratterizza invece la seconda parte, nella quale racconta dei posti più belli della città francese come Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde o le Calanques. Ciò testimonia il cambiamento in Antonio, riguardo al modo di vedere le cose e la realtà che lo circondano, scaturito dal nuovo rapporto instaurato con il padre.

Personaggi

Antonio

Antonio è un liceale timido e risentito, affetto da epilessia idiopatica, dalla quale prova vergogna, soprattutto di fronte ai compagni di scuola. Ha un talento naturale nella matematica, nel disegno e nella scrittura, che tuttavia non gli impedisce di eliminare la costante inquietudine per la sua malattia. Il rapporto già piuttosto difficile con il padre, a causa dell'allontanamento di quest'ultimo da moglie e figlio, non fa che peggiorare durante l'adolescenza.

Padre di Antonio

Il padre di Antonio, del quale non conosciamo il vero nome, è un matematico, professore all'università, e ha da poco superato i cinquant'anni. Il rapporto con la moglie e con il figlio non è facile, in particolare dopo l'abbandono del nucleo familiare quando Antonio era ancora piccolo.

Anche per il padre, la sosta forzata a Marsiglia si trasforma in un'occasione per conoscere realmente Antonio con il quale non si è mai comportato in modo naturale e spontaneo, ma piuttosto cercando di ricondursi allo stereotipo della figura paterna. Proprio a Marsiglia il padre si rende conto della crescita caratteriale del figlio e decide così di recuperare il tempo perduto, parlando apertamente con lui di se stesso e del proprio passato. Una volta tornato a casa, secondo quanto scrive nella lettera destinata ad Antonio, desidera continuare a parlare con il figlio ma un malore, pochi mesi dopo, gli preclude questa possibilità.

Temi principali

Il tema principale è uno di quelli che ricorrono più spesso nei libri di Carofiglio, ovvero quello del rapporto padre-figlio. Se nelle altre opere dell'autore di solito è accompagnato da altre tematiche importanti come lo scorrere del tempo o il rimpianto, che si riscontrano anche in questo caso, è in Le tre del mattino che assume un rilievo maggiore. L'autore si concentra soprattutto su come i due abbiano bisogno di un evento eccezionale per abbattere quel muro che li divideva fino a poco prima. La complicità che si viene a creare tra padre e figlio è inusuale quanto lo è l'avventura che vivono a Marsiglia.

Anche l'ambiente circostante, quindi, gioca un ruolo fondamentale ai fini del loro rapporto. Infatti una volta tornati a casa, tra i luoghi consueti, entrambi sembrano quasi perdere quell'intimità acquisita nei giorni precedenti, la quale fa posto ad un silenzio disagevole.

Nonostante l'esito piuttosto triste e malinconico della vicenda, Antonio porterà sempre con sé quel viaggio nel quale, oltre a scoprire un lato diverso e affascinante del padre, si trasforma da ragazzo ribelle ma insicuro, a uomo.

Oltre al rapporto padre-figlio, nel libro vi sono altre tematiche rilevanti, come per esempio lo spreco del talento, che accomuna Antonio e il padre per motivi diversi e in particolare nel campo della matematica, oppure il rimpianto, il quale si ripropone due volte all'interno della narrazione e che coinvolge più direttamente il genitore.
Quest'ultimo infatti prova tristezza ripensando al suo passato e lo dimostra raccontando al figlio degli scarsi risultati ottenuti nel proprio lavoro e della sua prima esperienza amorosa avuta con una prostituta ai tempi dell'università.
Alla fine del viaggio inoltre, una volta "conosciuto" il proprio figlio, rimpiangerà il fatto di non aver parlato prima con lui, anche se è fiducioso che ciò avverrà con calma in futuro.

Altro tema significativo è quello del senso della vita, che compare all'inizio del racconto quando Antonio riflette sull'inutilità delle cose che ci circondano e che ci sottraggono gran parte del nostro tempo. Il padre allora per rispondergli, decide di recitare una poesia del poeta greco Konstantinos Kavafis che tratta proprio di quel tema.

La poesia colpisce talmente tanto Antonio che decide di trascriverla sul suo quaderno e sarà proprio in quel momento che il ragazzo si rende conto che le cose tra i due stanno iniziando a cambiare.

Stile
L'intera storia è raccontata mediante un lungo flashback da Antonio quando ormai ha superato la soglia dei cinquant'anni, la stessa età che aveva il padre ai tempi del viaggio a Marsiglia.

L'utilizzo del flashback è alquanto frequente nelle opere di Carofiglio, come nel caso de Il bordo vertiginoso delle cose o de Il silenzio dell'onda, quasi come se l'autore volesse sottolineare il passare del tempo inteso non solo come scorrere ma anche come "passare" nel senso di trasmettere qualcosa a qualcuno.

Dal punto di vista stilistico, il romanzo è caratterizzato da un registro medio e da una lingua netta e precisa grazie alla quale l'autore riesce a descrivere al meglio gli stati d'animo, i pensieri, le idee dei due protagonisti e l'ambiente che li circonda.

Curiosità

 Come Carofiglio ha detto più volte, la storia non è totalmente frutto della sua fantasia ma si ispira a fatti realmente accaduti. Un amico infatti gli raccontò di un suo viaggio a Marsiglia negli anni ottanta per curarsi da una forma di epilessia e della cura alla quale ha dovuto sottoporsi per capire se fosse veramente guarito, chiamata appunto "prova da scatenamento". Tutti i personaggi sono inventati dall'autore, tranne uno che è realmente esistito, ovvero il medico specialista Gastaut.

 La prima notte Antonio e il padre, di ritorno dal locale dove quest'ultimo si era esibito al pianoforte di fronte al pubblico, decidono di fermarsi in un bar in periferia nel quale sono esposti manifesti del campionato nazionale francese di Savate. Il Savate è uno sport nato a Marsiglia, simile alla boxe ma in cui vale usare anche le gambe. L'atleta sul manifesto era il figlio del proprietario del locale, vicecampione di Francia nel 1981.

 La copertina del libro è stata illustrata graficamente da Francesco Carofiglio, fratello minore di Gianrico e anch'egli scrittore, con il quale ha collaborato per la realizzazione di diverse opere, tra le quali Cacciatori nelle tenebre e La casa nel bosco.

Dark Souls: Remastered
byVincent Peter May 31, 2018
If you're a relatively new fan of the Souls series and have never played this game before, you shouldn't skip this. Even if you have, this is still a world worth revisiting.
Street Priceد.إ 34.99
Visuals still hold up, tight and precise combat, several quality of life improvements, silky smooth framerate
Remaster effort is minimal, Lost Izalith is still garbage
What can I say about Dark Souls that hasn't been said much better multiple times before? The game and the series are global phenomenons, sharing mindshare with the biggest names in gaming. The gaming landscape was forever changed when Demon's Souls became a smash hit out of nowhere back in 2009, it was 2011's Dark Souls, published by Bandai Namco, that really propelled the series into mainstream consciousness to the point where it's impossible to go to a convention where you won't meet a dozen Sunbros. Bandai Namco and From Software have enjoyed a seven year long history with two Dark Souls sequels (there was also Bloodborne, published by PlayStation). Now, with Dark Souls: Remastered, they have brought this modern classic into the current generation, so you can finally have the entire series on modern hardware.
Like I said, it's very hard to talk about Dark Souls without reiterating what so many people have already said much more articulately than I can. Hardcore fans of the series still swear by Demon's Souls and Bloodborne, but it's hard to deny that Dark Souls is the game that deserves the status of a classic. The game is singularly responsible for the whole "[this] is the Dark Souls of [that]" comparison (leading to some truly asinine headlines) and the excellent "Praise the Sun" meme which Bandai Namco is happy to play along with the upcoming amiibo (which is still. sold. out).
But despite everything already having been said and done about Dark Souls, the game still manages to surprise me. I have played this game upwards of ten times but yesterday, I discovered a hidden bonfire that I never knew existed. The first time you start the game, you're dropped in a dungeon with nothing but a broken sword, the game makes a point of handicapping you so you really feel the dread of what's to come. Now, it's much less a handicap than it is a challenge. Revisiting Lordran is a very different experience now as I'm more master than student, but the grandeur of its environments haven't lost their awe.
Even though every inch of the place is etched in my photography memory, the sheer scale and craftsmanship of the levels are as baffling today as they were in 2011. When people talk about Dark Souls, they often go on and on about the enemies and the bosses and the challenge, but to me the real appeal of it was always the environments and the stories they tell. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki and the team at From Software have crafted a magnificent world that begs to be explored, even with full knowledge of the dangers that lurk every corner. Even today, reaching the sun-drenched spires of Anor Londo feels amazing.
Dark Souls: Remastered also contains the Artorias of the Abyss DLC, a surprisingly under-discussed part of the original game that a lot of people seem to have skipped their first that around. This is a shame because it contains some of the best, most gut-wrenching storytelling of the entire series, and has something the most challenging and delightfully lore-driven boss battles.
Visually, the remaster is a bare minimum but that's a huge plus in my books. The art direction in Dark Souls is such a delicate thing, the team was right to now tinker with it too much. Foliage now sways a bit in the wind and the lighting and texture models are vastly improved. The biggest draw of the remaster is that it looks great on modern screens. The PS4 Pro and Xbox One X can run the game at 4K and it maintains a solid 60 FPS across all platforms. In a game that's all pitch-perfect timing and really precise action, a solid framerate is the most important thing, and Dark Souls: Remastered really delivers. There are no blights on this town. The other big addition that comes with Dark Souls: Remastered is dedicated servers, which will hopefully add a lot more longevity to the game's online modes.
I really don't want to talk about Dark Souls: Remastered too much because the game really does speak for itself. Stepping back into Firelink shrine it's just as special today as it was seven years ago and the winding, intertwined nature of the world is just as delightful to explore today. It is a testament to Miyazaki's vision and From Software's craftsmanship that I'm still finding new secrets and new strategies on my way through Lordran. It being a lot of people's first time has also brought new life to the online modes as it's full of new players to help (and hurt), making things feel just as fresh. Even if you've played this one before, Dark Souls is still a one-of-a-kind game, and it's one of the best journeys you will ever take.

Minority Members obstructing Redevelopment
Minority Members obstructing Redevelopment, read this says Adv. R. P. Rathod.
Here I have published four judgments passed by High Court of Mumbai in the matter of Minority v/s majority of members agreeing to the proposal of Redevelopment which are contradictory to each other.
However, the High Court Judgments dated 11/12/2009 and 28/06/2010 over rule all the earlier Judgments the High Court has given in September, 2007 and on dated 09/12/2009. All the four cases are summarized here under:
1. HC JUDGMENT DATED 31ST AUGUST 07: RULED THAT DISSENTING MINORITY MEMBERS COULD BE EVICTED FORCIBLY: In the case of Sahara Co-op Hsg Society (Khar), Justice A M Khanwilkar of the Bombay High Court paved the way for easy redevelopment by ruling that 2 members who had not given their consent to the builder, could be evicted forcibly. He ruled that a dissenting minority of flat owners cannot stall redevelopment plans of their building and could be forcibly evicted from their homes with the help of the police if necessary. The Judgment was passed in the favor of the Raja builders on 31st August 07, Mumbai, leaving the flat owners with no option but to give their flats to the builder.
2. HC JUDGMENT DATED: 09/12/2009: EVEN ONE OBJECTOR CAN'T BE IGNORED DESPITE MAJORITY NOD: Justice S C Dharmadhikari of the Bombay High Court held that even a single dissenting member of a co-op housing Society cannot be thrown out by a builder based on a mere development agreement with the Society and a majority of its flat owners for redevelopment of the building. The Court clearly indicated that a Development Agreement entered into by the Housing Society with a builder, despite having the consent of a majority of members, cannot bind the minority if the reconstruction is not in the interest of "ALL" members of the Society.
3. HC JUDGMENT DATED: 11/12/2009: MINORITY CAN'T OBSTRUCT A REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT: In the case of Godi Kamgar CHS (Madhuvan) in Andheri (West), a Division Bench of the Bombay HC overturned the single judge verdict dated 09/12/2009 and the then Chief Justice Swatanter Kumar and Justice Ajay Khanwilkar held that "merely because some members in minority disapprove of the decision, it cannot be the basis to negate the resolution of the General Body unless they show that there is some prejudice caused to them or a fraud has been committed".
4. HC JUDGMENT DATED: 28/06/2010: ORDER AGAINST APPEAL PASSED THAT THE "OBSTRUCTING MINORITY'' TO VACATE THEIR FLATS WITHIN TWO WEEKS: On June 28, 2010 in the case of Godi Kamgar CHS (Madhuvan) in Andheri (West), the Bombay High Court has once again ruled that members of a co-operative housing society who are in minority cannot obstruct a redevelopment project and must abide by the majority decision of the society.
The Bombay high court dismissed an appeal filed by the members who were in minority to challenge an earlier order Dated 11/12/2010 of the court which too had gone against them. A bench of Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice S C Dharmadhikari ordered the members to vacate their flats within two weeks.
If the minority dissenting members do not have points on merits and if the Society has gone by the law, the minority may ultimately lose before the law. What is important is the merit in the objections. Per se, rule of majority is not the solution, whether it is redevelopment or any other matter in a Co-operative Society.
In case of tenanted Societies also, in a recent ruling, the Bombay High Court has stated that the issue of minority of tenants cannot be an obstacle for redeveloping a property if minimum 70% of the tenants are ready for the same.
The judgment came against a matter of a redevelopment in Dadar where 17 members were opposing the redevelopment of an old Parsi chawl. Based on the writ petition filed by the group of dissenting members, Justice D. B. Bhosale granted the permission to BMC to forcibly evict the families with the police help in case of any opposition from the others against the redevelopment.
It is important to note that as per the section 103B of Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Act, 1976, with the guidelines for redevelopment of old Municipal Properties by the Municipal Tenants Co-Operative Housing Societies on the land owned by the Corporation under regulation 33(7) of the Development Control Regulations for Greater Bombay, 1991, it is necessary that more than 70% of the eligible existing Municipal tenants should give written consent to redevelop the property under the scheme with a formation of a Co- Operative Society/ Association and an initiative proposal for the redevelopment.
The court has held that once 70% or more occupants /tenants give their consent for redevelopment by forming a co-operative body and if the scheme is approved by the Corporation, it is binding to all other occupants. As per the guidelines, the tenants/ occupants with separate stand, have no choice but to follow the norms. Being in minority (about 30% or less than that) the only choice for them remains is, to give up their tenancy rights and quit from the scheme.
It is an established position of law that a Development Agreement by itself does not create rights in a property in a developer's favour. The developer, thus, has no locus standi and cannot be entertained for eviction of such dissenting members of the Society. But the society can approach the co-operative court to enforce its resolution.
In a society, decisions are not necessarily taken by the application of mind by all. More often than not, some individuals influence the majority. That is because normally, only a handful are able to evaluate right and wrong and distinguish between what is talked about and what is actually being done.
If the minority dissenting members do not have points on merits and the society has gone by the law, the minority may ultimately lose before the law. What is important is the merit in the objections raised by such minority dissenting members. Per se, rule of majority is not the solution, whether it is redevelopment or any other matter in a co-operative society.
A well drafted consent of at least ¾ of the Society members must be obtained in writing during the Society meetings when the subject of redevelopment is discussed. The consent has to be tendered by the members in favor of Redevelopment has to be given once only. However, the minority members of co-operative housing society cannot obstruct a redevelopment project unless they show that there is some prejudice caused to them or a fraud has been committed concludes Adv. R. P. Rathod.


Even though it is barely the middle of August there is definitely spring (some would say summer) in the air. Our winter was very mild here and we could be in for a long hot summer so it makes sense to get a head start on the summer growing season before it gets too hot.
I harvested the last 4 purple cabbages and dug over the bed in readiness to plant some beans.
We have never had quite enough soil to fill these beds to the level I would like so I took the opportunity to add some more material to the bed before I planted the beans.
This is one of the various mulch/compost piles that are dotted around our property. GMan uses this one exclusively for grass clippings. I know that the purists say that you cannot compost just one type of material such as lawn clippings but I can assure you that the underneath of this heap had broken down beautifully into rich compost and was teeming with worms.
We removed the decomposed material from the bottom of the heap and returned the rest to the heap for another day.
Here is the bed topped up and ready to plant.
Meanwhile, I weeded the carrots which are continuing to grow nicely. I have harvested some baby ones as I thinned them out.
The newer blueberry bushes which are now a couple of years old, are finally getting established and showing some real signs of progress. Some, like this one are covered with flowers and fruit.
Finally, a reminder that the garden is not only about growing food. It is about enjoying our surroundings. This photo is of the natural sculptural form of the the deciduous white cedar which dominates the back garden.
What season is it in your garden? Is it changing? Have you modified your planting habits or even what you can grow to accommodate changes?
Summer is gone and today was a sign of things to come. Although many of you would scoff at our version of winter it is a clear contrast to our hot, wet summers.
Winter is heralded by cool clear days, cooler nights and a biting westerly wind which can make the apparent temperature seem much less.
The leaves have turned and are falling so it was time to gather some firewood as our wood-burner is the only form of heating we have in this house.
We retrieved the dry logs from the woodshed. These were leftovers from last season.
This box is right beside the door that leads upstairs.
And some more under the house.
We are now ready for when we decide to light the fire.
GMan has chopped another pile that was by the bottom gate and these are now stacked in the shed to dry out.
When I was cleaning on the weekend I noticed some telltale signs of mould around the house.
Time to get the clove oil out again. I have written about the clove oil in depth in a couple of previous posts. You can read about it here.
Do you alter your cleaning regime depending on the season?
There are the obvious things like clove oil in summer and cleaning out the fireplace in winter. The windows need cleaning again but that will have to wait until after our holidays.
The weather here is very unpredictable. 2 nights ago I was contemplating taking the doona off the bed and replacing it with a cotton blanket and bedspread but last night we were back to a doona and the woollen blanket. It is quite cool and windy again tonight but despite that we know that summer is coming. In preparation I am making some summer pyjamas for Miss O. I hope to finish them tomorrow and will have some photos for you tomorrow.

Q: Is there a way for a bot to detect a users unique device id in discord.js/node.js? I'm about to host a competition where you register via a bot in discord.
And I want to prevent users from submitting and then logging out and in again with a different account and submitting again. And doing that maybe 20 times to get a bigger chance to win.
If there is some way to detect that they are using the same device and make the following submissions invalid?
If not, if someone has a smart idea to prevent multiple submissions?

A: Discord.js does not have a way to track an specific device yet.
Something clever you could do, is to make the bot give your users a link to make them register via a website that stores a cookie to tell whether you have signed up already or not. You can also use Discord's OAuth2 to get the information from your signed up users to your database.

Will Boris Johnson's Brexit kill the Premier League?
By Martin Palazzotto
Aguero Aubameyang Brexit De Bruyne Eu Mbappe Pogba Roberto Firmino Sadio Mane Salah Premier League Tories General Election Boris Johnson Home Office
If Brexit is intended to keep foreigners from taking British jobs, should Premier League fans worry about transfer implications?
Background image: Lino9999
Boris Johnson won the United Kingdom's general election on Thursday by campaigning on a promise to "Get Brexit Done." He achieved such a large majority that the former mayor of London can afford to take his time keeping the promise rather than pulling out of the European Union as soon as possible. Remainers' last hope is Boris' propensity for dishonesty and breaking promises works in their favour for once. They shouldn't count on it.
Even if Johnson takes the time to fashion a smoother transition and negotiate favourable trade deals, the UK is leaving the EU. Europeans living and working in Britain should be concerned. So should Brits in the opposite situation. Changes are coming. Refugees and immigrants within the UK must also worry. Every demographic, including whites working at lower-income jobs, will find themselves with fewer resources than in the past as the Tory majority revels in slashing funding to all social services, be it housing, education, healthcare or policing. What they once legislated behind the scenes, conservatives can now do in the open.
One group who needn't worry about cuts to their favourite programme is football fans. The Premier League will continue to invest in premium talent from Europe and around the globe. The Home Office will continue to issue visas for those players. Consequently, European clubs won't curtail the recent trend of welcoming young British players to foreign leagues.
Clubs at lower levels may find it more difficult to acquire foreign talent. That will only please English fans who still believe, despite the Three Lions' recent success, that the influx of Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, German, Brazilian, Argentinian, African and Asian talent denies opportunities to young English players. Supporters at clubs in the Premier League and Championship aren't likely to notice any change in transfer business, however.
It's easy to be confident in this assessment. While the election centred on Brexit which, in turn, centred on immigration and the threat to English culture, racism was a lesser factor in Leavers' decisions than economics. Tories didn't campaign on the notion there were too many mosques or curry takeaways in the UK. They pandered to the fear that Muslims, Asians, Africans, Poles, Romanians and all manner of immigrants were a] bleeding dry welfare systems meant to help British citizens and b] if they were educated and here to work, stealing jobs. It was about money.

A landslide victory for "pay your own fucking bills" politics.
01:07 AM - 13th Dec 19
While the European Union takes an aggressive stance on consumer protection and workers' rights, it allows for the free movement of people. The twin policies combine to make life easier for workers who can go where conditions are optimal and difficult for employers who profit less by paying the freight.
Conservatives, being pro-business, prefer to ease protections and regulations while restricting the freedom of workforces from outside the UK and within. Labour supporters are correct in saying those who voted Tory did so at the eventual cost of personal liberty. Those who voted Tory don't care. Conservatism means preserving the way things are, not insuring room for new growth and possibilities.
That said, footballers' movements are already restricted by their contracts. They don't show up willy-nilly, then hit the JobCentre when they can't get a trial at their dream club. They arrive because the club wants them. Moreover, said club will house and feed them, look after all their medical expenses and pay a handsome wage that will trickle down to local businesses. A Tory Home Office won't interfere in Premier League business interests. Rather, it will grant visas largely as requested.
So, if you're worried the likes of Sergio Aguero, Bernardo Silva, Kevin de Bruyne, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette, Paul Pogba, Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino will all be rounded up and deported this summer, take a deep breath. If you're concerned Premier League clubs will be legislated out of the running for burgeoning talents such as Kai Havertz, Lautaro Martinez and Kylian Mbappe, relax. Brexit is coming but, for top-flight football, it will be business as usual.

Home Blog Post Ceiling Fans
Larry-Lambert
This is the Ceiling Fan Tour as requested. I like unique ceiling fans. I have no interest in the cookie cutter fans that they sell at Home Depot or Lowes. There is no character, no je ne sais quoi in the design of normal ceiling fans and you won't find them in my manse.
I've been through different design periods. In one, the place looked a bit like the Imperial War Museum…a bit over the top even for me. A friend said that I was building a shrine to myself. He was right, so I disassembled that and moved on.
The Front Room/Parlor. It's "L-shaped" and it requires two photos to cover it. If you look up there is a massive and very cool 8 bladed fan. The ceiling for this room is 22 feet overhead, which allowed me to drop a fan on a 6 foot pole to a point mid-ceiling. Check it out.
The balcony visible to the right is off the master 'badroom'
The Family Room – The photo (below) covers about half of it. I have two matching fans. This is the photo of one taken from a point where I'm standing under the other.
I'm not going to shutterbug this thing to death but the rooms are "open concept", which means that there is a 12 foot opening that leads from the parlor/front room into the family room and that connects with the kitchen.
The Den has a counter-rotating fan:
It does a remarkably good job moving a lot of hot air that is generated in the den…I have no idea what the source of the hot air in my den is.
There are more fans in the bedrooms, etc. but you are likely bored to tears by now.

Enough about ceiling fans. Let's hear all about those great book end collections of yours.
Just FYI, I am of more practical stock than you, LL, and find that the Lowe's and Home Depot units move just as much (or perhaps more) air around than some of those fancy schmancy units. Then again, my PJ's are solid colors, with no patterns whatsoever, what do I know…
LL April 7, 2015 At 12:35 pm
Slaves with peacock and ostrich fans move air too but that is not politically correct these days. It's simply the STYLE in which the air is moved that matters to me. I also have two of the Dyson tower fans (bladeless) ( dyson.com/fans-and-heaters/cooling-fans.aspx) that I use to move from place to place as floor units. Since they are bladeless the grandkids and pets aren't injured and they too move air with a great deal of style.
Old oscillating fans do a good enough job if all one needs is air movement.
LSP April 7, 2015 At 2:12 pm
The fans look neat. I use an old oscillating fan from time to time, which seems to work.
But maybe you need to get a bit more "tech" and just have a few hovering drones. You could move them around as per need, or just for fun; and they could attack boring guests.
Adrienne April 7, 2015 At 2:29 pm
Very cool fans, LL. In our present home we are relegated to ugly box window fans.
WoFat April 7, 2015 At 3:33 pm
We have 2 ceiling fans and 1 attic fan. Hark! Our name is dust.
Fredd April 7, 2015 At 3:39 pm
Where can I get the slave/peacock feather model? With good looking female slaves, those units equipped with ugly slaves will simply not do.
LL April 7, 2015 At 4:58 pm
Naturally, fan slaves must be female, beautiful, and must be willing wear the appropriate slave attire.
Hovering drones kick out a lot of air. They would need to have a power tether to stay aloft as long as desired.
There is always a way to up the game.
They MOVE dust.
Brig April 8, 2015 At 12:33 am
Love the Hampton Bay Pilot one in the den. Just so cool.
jenny April 8, 2015 At 1:26 am
That last fan is especially cool.
I went off the beaten path with the two I installed in the main living areas, but nothing as high end as what you have here! Quite nice.
WoFat April 8, 2015 At 1:43 am
To and fro.
LL April 8, 2015 At 3:21 am
It's not a Hampton Bay. I think that Hampton Bay knocked the idea off. However, yes, it's cool.
They are useful decorations that add some distinctiveness.
No, they're not as good as slave girls in skimpy outfits with ostrich fans, but they are the next best thing.

mea culpa, I spoke out of ignorance of ubber high end things…
Keeping in mind that I'm a ceiling fan aficionado… for me, the idea isn't so much spending a lot of money as buying something that's more unique. For example, I like the idea of this craftmade fan: houzz.com/photos/9018044/Craftmade-BW321SS3-21-Rotating-Cage-Ceiling-Fan-transitional-ceiling-fans
You can put it in a corner area to cover a room or to cover a specific area of a room. It's not uber expensive, but it has that unique twist on an age old concept. If I wasn't planning on selling the house I'm in, I think that I'd add this one to the reading area in the master badroom. It makes no sense to add fans to a place you're not going to keep.
I don't do pinterest, but I do houzz, and it's equally as dangerous. Very cool cage fan.

I own one clever book on mathematics, well clever… it is little tiny book called Mathematics: A Very Short Introduction.
We are only human. I tell this to myself everytime a weekend passes and I am not productive at all. Anyway, what are the weekends for, if not for the procrastination? But last weekend was exception, I went home to give my vote in presidential election… and then headed quickly back to Prague where I lay around in the bed till Monday morning. Ehm. And that is when I excuse myself that I am only human. Well but I guess this is how I have been raised, to do something meaningful even during the weekend and not to lay all day in the bed. Staying in pyjamas after breakfast was simply not allowed. So I started to do something new.
At first I wanted to finally break through the next chapter about digital painting in my Master the Photoshop book but I just do not feel like I am there yet. Then I wanted to start reading second part of the Isaac Asimov's Foundation, but of course Czech Post has their own way with delivering packages. I have never been a fan of science fiction literature but I strongly recommend Foundation series to anyone who is interested in politics, individualism and atomic blasters. And last but not least, I started to learn math, again.
I own one clever book on mathematics, well clever… it is little tiny book called Mathematics: A Very Short Introduction. It will not be very surprising if I tell you the book was a gift from my boyfriend who has filled half of our bookcase with books on physics and mathematics. But to be completely honest, it was my wish. To absorb at least the basics of mathematical theorems again. So believe it or not, for a month now I have been reading it on my way to and from work. I have not had Math since high school and now I am learning again how to prove Pythagoras theorem or how to visualize four-dimensional space. And as whole book is written in English it is another challenge for me (I had no clue what even square root meant). I am only in the half of the book but it had already given me so much more than my high school classes. Who knows what would have happened, if my teacher had provided me with a motivation to learn more about fractions and those square roots… But I know I should not compare it, at Math at high school we were only counting. But this time, for a change, I am actually trying to understand it.
Maybe I will forget it, maybe I will drop it as I did it with my Turkish class and maybe I will discover a whole new world. After all, it is just for fun, right?
Surely you're joking, Mrs. Feynman!

SponsoredLinX
Ben Bradshaw is the CEO of SponsoredLinX.
Delivering advanced digital marketing strategies for more than 3500 clients from their base in Fortitude Valley, the company has enjoyed more than a decade of sustained success since a struggling magician first turned to Google AdWords to boost his business.
"I was really struggling for bookings but that changed within the space of a week," he remembers, reflecting on a rapid turnaround in fortunes which led him to try out some courses in online marketing.
"I ended up sharing what I'd learnt with friends and then thought I could make this go a bit further.
"My other half, Shannah, and I set the business up in 2006…we had about 20 clients and worked from home with the baby and the dog!"
Having moved their dining table into their first office in Annerley, the couple embarked on building what has since become a multi award-winning venture, boasting offices in five cities, 45 million generated leads and more than 1.1 billion Google Ad views in the past year.
So does the magician-turned-marketer attribute any of his success to skills honed in his previous profession?
"The public-speaking element and ability to engage people and think on your feet is definitely transferable," he laughs.
"I still do a handful of magic gigs and my son is also really into magic, so it's still in the family."
Bradshaw Senior has certainly conjured up something special in his new line of business.
What is your greatest business learning?
Get the right people. It's really hard to overstate how important this is. Your business is only as good as the people you have working in it.
What is your greatest business success?
We're one of the biggest employers of digital marketers in Australia and I'm really proud of the fact that we employ 160 people in Brisbane and have such a diverse workforce.
What three things should someone consider before starting a business?
Be passionate about what you're doing.
A business is essentially a profitable solution to a problem, so be clear in your mind what the problem is that you're trying to solve.
Avoid negative people and surround yourself with sources of good advice.
Is there anything you would have done differently?
I guess we might have recognised how important the recruitment process is, in terms of getting the right people earlier on, but then hindsight is a wonderful thing! You will encounter problems but ultimately they become your lessons learnt.
What have you found to be the most effective way to promote your business?
Referrals and networking are effective but having a strong digital presence is essential. During and after the global financial crisis, there were businesses complaining that they were losing money but at the same time they hadn't even made themselves findable on Google. You've got to fish where the fish are.
How do you stay up-to-date with the latest business information?
Our industry changes so rapidly that we have a daily morning meeting to discuss what's changed since the last one! I read a lot, especially anything that relates to artificial intelligence or any subject which affects us in some way. You're only as good as the information you're getting.
Where have you sought business advice?
Our CFO, Brett Hill, gives me great advice. His background is in chartered accountancy, commerce and law so he's got great knowledge.
What financial factors should be considered when wanting to grow a business?
If your business isn't profitable then it's just a hobby. It's easier than ever these days to start a business but if you find you're constantly having to put a lot of capital in then it's probably the wrong business for you. You should be able to build your revenue from clients.
How do you manage risk?
We don't want to be another Kodak or Blockbuster, so we do as much as we can to stay informed and have a good understanding of where our industry is heading.

Q: Match Column and Fill Next Column I'm very new to excel so please hang with me.
I have 2 columns that hold all of my products and their descriptions (Columns A & B in picture).
I'm trying to have it so whenever I type in a model number into Active Products (Column C in picture), my excel automatically searches column A, matches it to the model in column C and copies the description from column B to column D. Does this make any sense?
Basically, I have 20,000 models and their descriptions in columns A & B and whenever I put in a model number in column C, my script searches column A and copies over the description that matches that model in the B column over to column D.
Thanks for any help.

A: You can use VLOOKUP for this. Just fill your D column with the following formula. I always get this wrong, but I think it should be this. Of course, you'll want to make sure the "2" matches whatever row you start with for your fill.
=VLOOKUP(C2, A:B, 2)

Let me know if that doesn't work and I can fix it, though.
If you want it to be pretty, wrap it with an IF.
=IF(C2 = "", "", VLOOKUP(C2, A:B, 2))

Who's the new Black Panther? Here's what we know (so far) about Marvel's 'Wakanda Forever'
It's about time to yell "Wakanda forever!" once more.
Written and directed by Ryan Coogler, the blockbuster Marvel sequel "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" (in theaters Nov. 11) again puts the spotlight on the high-tech African nation – a central location in the expansive Marvel Cinematic Universe. But things are different now than they were in 2018, when the original film became a pop-culture phenomenon and garnered a best picture Oscar nomination: Star Chadwick Boseman died two years ago.
From new and old faces to someone else wearing the Black Panther suit, here's everything you need to know about the anticipated superhero follow-up:
'Black Panther 2' review:'Wakanda Forever' is a profound, action-packed take on life and legacy
What's the plot of 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever'?
The sequel is set after the events of "Avengers: Endgame," checking in on Wakanda after King T'Challa (Boseman) revealed to the world that his nation was in fact a technology-rich land instead of the third-world country everyone believed it to be.
But in the new movie, art imitates life: Following T'Challa's death, his mother Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett) heads a Wakanda that enters its next chapter and has to protect itself from other global powers.
'Black Panther':Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong'o on 'beautiful love letter' of 'Wakanda Forever'
Who returns from Ryan Coogler's original 'Black Panther' movie?
Most of the main cast is back, including Letitia Wright as T'Challa's genius sister Shuri, Winston Duke and Lupita Nyong'o as Wakandan warriors M'Baku and Nakia, plus Martin Freeman as CIA ally Everett Ross. And Danai Gurira's Okoye again commands the all-female Dora Milaje, which includes Florence Kasumba's second-in-command Ayo (who appeared in "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" series).
Fans may not have to wait long to see them again: Coogler is developing a Wakanda-centered series for Disney+.
Comic-Con is back! See Chris Pratt, Lupita Nyong'o, Dwayne Johnson, Zachary Levi and more
Is Chadwick Boseman going to be in 'Black Panther 2'?
Filmmakers haven't addressed if Boseman will be seen in "Wakanda Forever" other than murals with T'Challa's face glimpsed in footage released thus far. But they have confirmed the role won't be recast. "It just felt like it was much too soon," Marvel chief Kevin Feige told Empire magazine. "As extraordinary and fantastical as our characters and stories are, there's a relatable and human element to everything we do. The world is still processing the loss of Chad. And Ryan poured that into the story."
Coogler honored his late star at San Diego Comic-Con in July. "Chad is no longer with us physically but his spirit, his passion, his genius, his pride in his culture and the impact he had on this industry will be felt forever," the director said. "We put our love for Chadwick into this film."
And last year in an interview with USA TODAY, Duke discussed what it was like filming a "Black Panther" movie without Boseman: "I miss my friend."
'He was an angel on this planet':Lupita Nyong'o, Kevin Hart mourn Chadwick Boseman one year later
Is there a new villain in 'Black Panther 2'?
Michael B. Jordan's Erik Killmonger set the bad-guy bar pretty high in the first "Panther." Coogler plucked a comic-book fan favorite for one of the sequel's primary antagonists: Namor the Sub-Mariner, played by Mexican actor Tenoch Huerta Mejía.
With pointy ears and wings on his ankles, Namor rules the underwater kingdom of Talokan, a Mayan-inspired spin on Namor's Atlantis from the comics. It's another sophisticated landscape that hides itself from the world at large, though in the trailers for "Wakanda Forever," its people come to the surface to battle Wakanda.
Mejía is aware of how important the representation is to Latino fans. "We are here now, and we are not going anywhere," he tells USA TODAY.
Who's playing Kang, Namor and more?Meet 5 new faces who loom large in Marvel's future
Which other characters make their debut in 'Wakanda Forever'?
On the Talokan side, Namora (Mabel Cadena) – who in the comics is Namor's cousin – and the fearsome Attuma (Alex Livinalli) are introduced to the MCU, as is Michaela Coel as the Dora Milaje's combat instructor, Aneka.
One of the most important new personas in "Wakanda Forever" – especially in regard to Marvel's future – is Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), a young American inventor who's designed her own advanced suit of armor a la Iron Man. She's been tapped to headline her own upcoming Disney+ series "Ironheart," executive produced by Coogler and slated to premiere next year.
Ranked:Every Marvel superhero movie (including the new 'Thor: Love and Thunder')
So who is the new Black Panther?
The first "Wakanda Forever" trailer teased someone wearing a vibranium supersuit and the new one that dropped this week showed the person in full. There are some clues to the identity, though.
This Black Panther appears to be a woman – which makes sense considering Wakanda's numerous female warriors. And the design of the new hero's mask matches that of the face paint worn by Shuri, so it appears that the princess has taken over for her big brother. (In the comics, she inherits the Black Panther mantle when T'Challa is injured.)
And it's possible there's more than one Black Panther: The latest trailer includes a shot of two Black Panther helmets side by side.
What is Rihanna's new song in 'Black Panther'?
Rihanna takes the lead on the "Wakanda Forever" soundtrack, lending her voice to the movie's single "Lift Me Up."
The song, her first new music since 2016's "Anti" album, is a tribute to Boseman written by Tems, Rihanna, Ludwig Göransson and director Ryan Coogler.
The soft ballad with strings makes Rihanna's voice the focus as she sings a simple chorus: "Lift me up, Hold me down, Keep me close, Safe and sound."
The Rihanna music drought ends: Singer releases 'Lift Me Up' for 'Black Panther' soundtrack
When will 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' stream on Disney+?
Tickets are on sale now for the film's theatrical run but fans will have to wait a little before being able to watch it at home. It took two months for the last Marvel film, "Thor: Love and Thunder," to go from theaters to Disney+, but if "Wakanda Forever" follows the 47-day window of recent films "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" and "Lightyear," fans will be streaming it just in time for New Year's Day.
Or perhaps Feige will embrace his inner Santa and give Wakanda lovers an early Christmas present.

Should Christian Refugee Children Be Allowed To Celebrate Christmas???
But you can make one special day brighter for some Christian refugee children by arranging a traditional Christmas for them with games, songs, a hot meal and the gift of food or other essentials for their entire family.
The first Christmas for Refugees events were in 2013, when churches and private halls in Jordan were provided for Christmas parties for Christian refugee children. Puppet shows, games and singing were part of the day which included transportation.
From that small beginning in Jordan in 2013 the program has expanded each year, to now include Lebanon and Iraq. In 2015 the first Christmas parties were held in Iraq for the children of Chrsitian families who fled the traditional Christian area of the Nineveh Plain. In 2016 more than 2,000 children from Mosul and the Nineveh Plain will have a real Christmas provided by Christmas for Refugees.
The Christmas for Refugee program assists the families of the children as well. Depending on the area each family receives either a hygiene kit or box of food stuffs valued at $50.00 Another $14.00 covers the cost of the meal program and party as well as transportation to the Christmas events and Bibles for the children and their families. The total cost per family is $64.00 each.
Please help make Christmas, 2016 a special day for a refugee child who has fled Islamic terror and war. All contributions are tax deductible.
The goal in 2016 is to serve as many as 6,000 Christian children and their families for Christmas.
Please help by donating $14.00 for a one day Christmas program for one child or $64.00 for one child's Christmas program plus $50 worth of food or a box of hygiene materials for the family.
Please donate today as funds must be transferred to Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon well in advance. You can help a refugee child have a Christmas Day celebration instead of another day of hunger.

India hands over 155 houses in Sri Lanka
Edited By Odishatv Bureau Published By IANS On Feb 25, 2019 - 7:55 AM
Pic credit: Wion
Colombo: Sri Lankan Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe on Sunday handed over 155 houses built under an Indian project to people in the island nation's tea-producing region populated by "Indian Tamils".
Present on the occasion here was Indian High Commissioner Taranjit Singh Sandhu.
The houses were built under the Indian Housing Project for people at the Bridwell Estate in Bogawantalawa at Hatton.
Wickremesinghe thanked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the development support extended to Sri Lanka, where a dragging ethnic insurgency ended in May 2009 as the military crushed the Tamil Tigers.
Sandhu congratulated the owners of the newly built houses.
Sandhu said the Indian Housing Project in Sri Lanka with a grant of US$ 350 million (close to 50 billion LKR) was the largest Indian grant assistance project in any country.
He said that of the total commitment of 63,000 houses, 47,000 had been built.
Tamils of Indian origin, popularly known as "Indian Tamils", populate the tea estates in Sri Lanka's central hills.
