Equity markets on both sides of the Atlantic ended the day sharply lower, the British Pound fell another 3.6% and demand for safe haven assets boosted gold and dragged core global yields lower.
Risk assets took another pounding overnight as the UK decision to leave the EU continues to rock financial markets. Equity markets on both sides of the Atlantic ended the day sharply lower, the British Pound fell another 3.6% and demand for safe haven assets boosted gold and dragged core global yields lower.
UK Markets have continued to drive global sentiment. The prospects of weaker growth, regulatory and political uncertainty along with low interest rates have been noted as the major reasons for the selling of financial shares across Europe and Wall Street. Airlines and home builders have also taken a beating while utilities, healthcare and telcos had mixed results.
Adding salt to the wound, England has just lots to Iceland and they are out of Europe for a second time in less than a week. In addition, S&P stripped the UK from its AAA rating, cutting the countries debt by two notches with negative outlook. The rating agency noted that the UK decision to leave the EU threatens the country's constitutional and economic integrity and it said that leaving the Union would "lead to a less predictable, stable and effective policy framework in the UK". S&P was the last of the three big rating agencies to strip the UK from its triple A rating. Moody's rating for the UK is Aa1 with negative outlook and Fitch Ratings has the UK at an equivalent double-A-plus.
The lack of UK political leadership at a time of market disarray is doing little to reassure markets. On this point, there was little market reaction to news that the UK Conservative Party has brought the date forward to elect a new leader by almost a month to 2 September. Instead as yet another blow to the UK, German, French and Italian leaders have confirmed that they will not hold informal talks with the UK until it triggers article 50 to leave.
Looking at currencies, while the USD and JPY have retained their safe haven status, the lack of clarity on the future relationship between the UK and Europe suggests that the GBP adjustment still has more to go. The NZD and AUD have also underperformed (down 1.74% and 1.66% respectively) and notably the NZD is now struggling to stay above the 70c mark. The Euro loss 1% against the USD and JPY/USD is unchanged. Speculation of potential currency intervention by the BoJ has probably played a factor on the subdued performance of the Yen relative to the USD.
Amid the turmoil in risk assets core global yields were well supported overnight. 10y UK gilts moved sub the 1% mark for the first time in history, after dropping 15bps to end the day at 0.931%. Both German and Japan 10-year rates fell further into negative territory, closing at minus 0.12% and minus 0.21% respectively and in the US, the Treasury curve flattened with the move led by the back end of the curve. 10y UST are currently trading at 1.439%, 7bps lower relative to Sydney's closing level.
In commodities, oil prices are about 2% lower, gold is up 0.8%, copper is unchanged and somewhat surprisingly, iron ore had a pretty solid night, jumping 6.4% to $53.9.
As for data releases, the US trade deficit rose in May to $60.6bn from $57.5bn, marginally worse than the $59.5bn expected by consensus.
In Australia this morning we get the weekly consumer confidence reading. Last week the index reached a new 2 year high and it would be interesting to see if this level of confidence is maintained ahead of the Australian Federal election on Saturday.
In offshore markets it's all about US data releases. The third Q1 GDP estimate is expected to show an upward revision to 1% from 0.8% and the June Consumer confidence reading is anticipated to come at 93.4, almost a full point higher from its previous month print. The Case-Shiller Home Prices (April) are also due out along with the June Richmond Fed Manufacturing index.
On global stock markets, the S&P 500 was -1.81%. Bond markets saw US 10-years -12.22bp to 1.44%. In commodities, Brent crude oil -1.82% to $47.53, gold+0.8% to $1,327, iron ore +6.4% to $53.86. AUD is at 0.7332 and the range since yesterday 5pm Sydney time is 0.7327 to 0.7448.


Dip those José Olé Taquitos!
This is ideal for avocado lovers, it's always time to enjoy guacamole! Try this with your José Olé Chicken Taquitos or José Olé Burritos, or even chimis.
Here comes the Big Game, time to also enjoy great food with your family and friends.
Guacamole, a dip made from avocados, is originally from Mexico. The name is derived from two Aztec Nahuatl words—ahuacatl (avocado) and molli (sauce).
José Olé taquitos are fabulous alone or with a simple sour cream or yogurt dip. But, eat them with this guacamole and they will become your obsession.


In Dragon Ball Z, virtually all of Frieza's henchmen are offed by Vegeta except Bund and Vug (killed by Krillin and Gohan), a few mooks who are killed by three Nameks, Blueberry and Raspberry (who are killed by a giant crab), any who remain on Planet Frieza or travel with King Cold (killed by exploding building and Trunks, respectively), and some mooks who are killed by Frieza or Captain Ginyu, which also fits the trope.
Valentin replica Your diet should focus on foods such as chicken, beef, fish, tuna, rice, sweet potatoes, eggs, cottage cheese, oatmeal, fruit, vegetables, protein powder, peanut butter, and nuts. There are plenty more foods you can eat but these are just the basics for a diet for ectomorphs. You don't want to really be eating fast food and junk food, but if a situation arises where your going to fall short come calories and you need a quick boost, then feel free to grab some fast food. Just don't make it a habit because that stuff is no good for you Valentin replica.

I Fought this War and Won
gingersunlights 7 stories
Hermione relives the day she left home, and moves forward with small steps and a little more determination than she began with.
Drama / Fantasy
gingersunlights
Her mother nearly dropped the pan of muffins she was holding when she saw the scar, but that didn't phase her; people always reacted that way.
"Hermione!" She said with a gasp, pointing to her daughter's arm. "What on earth is that?"
She knew, though. Of course she knew what it was, she just didn't want to believe the things she'd heard in hushed voices at the Weasley's dinner last week. Or the fragments of story she'd heard from around a corner when she'd been to the castle with Hermione to see the graves of the fallen. She'd been let in on the condition that she'd not ask Hermione anything about her dead friends.
Looking up from the stack of plates she had been putting away, Hermione steadied herself and told her mother what she'd been telling people for weeks.
"It's a slur." She said. Her features would have been schooled into a careful mask of calm if she'd been telling the truth a year ago, but today Hermione was too tired. "It's a racial slur wizards use to talk about people like me, and a madwoman carved it into my arm while I screamed and her friends looked on."
Best just to give it to them straight, she'd learned. Nobody wanted to know but they always asked, so Hermione gave them their answers.
The look on her mother's face was one, not of horror, but of hopelessness. It was like she'd only just come to realize what terrible things there had been on the other side of the curtain.
Hearing footsteps come into the kitchen from behind, Hermione turned to see her father walk in and lean against the doorframe with a hand over his mouth like he was trying to stop himself from crying.
In the end, Hermione just put the plate back on the stack with the rest of them and walked out the front door, leaving her parents in the kitchen with the cutlery and muffins.
"I had a speech prepared."
"I know. I heard it."
"I was going to try to make the war out to be something beautiful for them, something they could be proud of me for winning, but that wouldn't be fair. It wouldn't be fair to Remus of Tonks or your mum and dad and my parents have never seen battle so if I sugarcoated things it would have been lying. And I didn't want to lie."
Hermione looked up at Harry with tears in her eyes, and he looked back with just about as much pain as one would expect.
"I'm sorry you have to relive it with them. I'm especially regretful that we all have to relive it when somebody wants to know why we left our childhoods behind. Some people still don't know."
"I know, I know. Can you believe that, Harry?" She asked, sniffling against her sleeve. "Some people still don't understand why."
"Once upon a time I'd have said that they were better off. Funny, that. How things change."
Sometimes they wouldn't leave the cushy, second-floor, den for days at a time. The few, and the last of the children who fought in the war.
Hermione would just lie there, on the floor, waiting for the day to come when she would have to lie to someone else about how 'no, I never tortured anyone for information,' or that 'no, of course I never learned to kill on sight,' 'no, parts of me did not die with every person I killed.'
Conversely, Ron would pace, wearing a hole in the carpet with his inner monologue about how much his mother must hate him for the people he killed in cold blood. Usually, he'd do it until Harry got the scotch from the cupboard and convinced him to 'bloody fucking sit down, Ron.'
A thousand years ago, Hermione would have done something like chastise them, but now she only had energy enough to stare at the ceiling and stop the tears that still threatened to flow.
Luna sometimes made it down the stairs from her third-floor bedroom to hold Hermione's hand and lie on the floor with her, but mostly she just waited to cry until everyone else was asleep.
While the others wallowed in their den-room, Ginny just got mad. She got so mad sometimes that she would set fire to trees in the back yard just to watch them burn, and those were the manageable days.
On the unmanageable days, Ron would drink himself stupid, Harry would cry, Hermione would wish herself dead, and Ginny would yell at Luna for something silly, old and forgotten.
There were worse things than days like these, but nobody cared to move forward. Nobody could. Except for Neville, that was.
"Please, Hermione. Mrs. Weasley feels as though she's lost all her children and it is absolutely killing her." Neville said as he sat holding Hermione's hand in the dusty kitchen of No. twelve Grimmauld place.
Looking further into the distance, Hermione ignored him.
At least he was trying.
"Please." He said, taking her other hand. "Bill and Fleur have gone back to France, and Charlie's gone to live with the dragons in Romania again. He said he couldn't handle one more day of Molly looking at him like he'd died too, and he just left. She's got nothing, 'Mione. Just come to dinner, yeah?"
"Dinner."
Hermione looked down at her hands in Neville's, dry from the stale air, and then up the stairs to the second floor where Harry and Ron were sleeping. There was still dust on the walls, and an infestation of puffskeins in the library. Ages ago—a lifetime ago, it would have driven her mad.
"Okay, Neville. Dinner."
When she finally got all of them out of the house, they made a dreadful picture, but for the first time since she told her mother about the scar on her forearm, she felt like she'd done something. Ginny had stormed out on them the day before, but she had been known to do that and Hermione wouldn't let it get her caught up.
"Ron, don't forget your scarf."
As they stood on the hill overlooking the Burrow, Luna came to stand close to Hermione, and said "One day, when this is all over, we'll be free, like we always said we would be."
Hermione turned her head to look into Luna's deep, blue eyes, and then back out at the Burrow, and said "One day, we'll be free." She said it like a prayer.
"Oh! Ron, you look just dreadful, let me get you a cup of tea. And Harry, dear, why don't you and Hermione take a seat in the lounge, I'll just go put the kettle on." Molly then turned to Luna and put a hand on her shoulder, looking at her, and then at Neville like she could see straight through them, and then she was back to the kitchen.
Harry and Ron shrugged at each other and went to sit down on the sofa, squishing Hermione between them, while Neville and Luna sat together on the loveseat closest to the kitchen.
"Getting a bit big for this, aren't we?" Said Harry, with a grin.
The three of them barely fit on the couch anymore, but it had been theirs since they were young, and a thing of comfort to them.
Luna laughed, and Neville smiled a bit, looking just a little like himself. Ron chuckled and laced his fingers with Hermione's. From the outside, things might well have looked cheerful. Almost.
"Hermione?" called a voice from the doorway.
Hermione started at her mother's voice, and then looked at Neville accusingly.
"Hey! I didn't know she was inviting other people! You know how she is, very devious when it comes to her family."
"Oi!" said Ron.
"Well, she is!"
"She is, dear, it really can't be contested." Chimed Luna. "Also, Hermione, you'd better make up your mind about going to the door pretty soon because she's going to find you sooner or later."
"Right. Front room, here I go." Said Hermione, with a hesitation set upon her face and in her hands.
"Coming Mum!" She said, and went.
"Do you think she's invited anyone else, or just Hermione's parents?" Asked Ron.
"I think it's a safe bet, actually." Said Harry. "I wouldn't be surprised if she talked Ginny into coming, but there really isn't anyone else."
At the room's sudden silence, Harry rushed to amend "Well, Bill and Fleur are in France, you know, and Charlie's off to God knows where—"
"Romania, again." Interjected Neville.
"— right, Romania, and if she's gotten Mcgonagall to come I'll eat my hat."
"I wouldn't be so sure about that." Said a voice from the corner.
"Mrs. Granger, it's nice to see you." Said Harry, turning to see her.
"Likewise, but please do call me Jane, you are all quite old enough now." She said with a watery smile.
"Luna," started Hermione, "I know you haven't met my mother—"
"I have, actually." Said Luna. At Hermione's questioning look, she continued, "We met the night you came to stay at Grimmauld with us. I was here, having tea with Molly, and she came to see if you'd come to the Burrow."
"Ah. Of course."
A rather long silence followed, but they were saved from further empty minutes by Molly Weasley rushing back into the room with a plate of biscuits and a falsely cheery "Come, eat!"
The tea had been spectacularly awkward, though not completely devoid of conversation. As it turned out, Mcgonagall had indeed showed up, and just before dinner at that. Ginny had not, but nobody had expected anything less. When Ginny went away, she very much went away and was not to be looked for under any circumstances.
They ate mostly in stilted conversation, but it was something more alive than what they'd all been for the past few months. For that, Mrs. Weasley appeared to be enormously grateful.
After the sun went down, Mcgonagall and Mrs. Weasley stayed in the kitchen with Mrs. Granger to talk in hushed whispers over (more) fussy tea, and the rest of them went up to sit in Ron's old room with the windows open. It was late August, and the air was still warm even after dark.
"I remember the rain." Said Luna, to the room at large. At Harry's questioning hum, she continued, "I remember the clouds that rolled in over us that night, after the battle at the ministry in our fifth year. They came only for a few minutes, just enough to get us soaked on our way back to the castle, but still, I remember them."
"Why, Luna?" asked Hermione.
"It's just like a dream when you've been fighting and then you're just not. Because it's over, and you're not fighting for your life anymore, and then something stupidly normal happens- it rains. I was almost offended." Luna wiped her eyes on the hem of her shirt. "No, I was offended, and I nearly yelled at the sky because the world had kept on turning while we were in there."
Luna was decidedly misty-eyed by the time she was finished, and Ron took her hand.
"I didn't remember the rain, but I do remember the letter my mother sent me when she'd learned what had happened." Said Ron. "It was tearstained, even though the words were angry. I think that's when I knew. What was coming, I mean." He said, gesturing widely. "I mean, we didn't know until it hit us, but that's when I realized that it was all over."
Hermione looked a bit lost when she said "I keep wishing that we could change things, that we could go back, but every time I do, I just end up thinking of more horrible ways to watch it happen over and over again." She said. Then, everyone was looking at her when she said "I thought about it, you know. Going back."
"We broke them, though. We broke them all at the ministry that night." Started Harry, with a question in his voice.
"But I never gave mine back." She said. "Mcgonagall took it from me, but she sent back a rather convincing duplicate in place of the original. Of course, I wasn't supposed to know, but I did, obviously. I think she might have wanted me to."
"You destroyed it though, didn't you?" Asked Neville.
"Yeah. I threw it, actually. Into the fire in the common room the night after the last battle. I was so angry at myself for even thinking of it."
"Hermione," started Ron.
"Don't. Please, Ronald I can't do it tonight, I'm just so completely empty." Hermione was standing with one hand raised in front of her asking him to stop and Ron couldn't press her. He was empty, too, after all.
It was Harry, then, who broke the silence.
"I still get nightmares." He said, and Hermione looked back at him. "Not the ones you would think I'd get, of killing people in the last battle, but of Sirius." Hermione sat down on the bed and let his words wash over her. "I don't yell so much anymore, like I used to, but I wake up with this terribly unsafe feeling, like it's not over yet. Like we're still fighting. I think, sometimes, that I can't remember a time without war. That I don't know how to live without it."
"There were times without war." Said Ginny from the doorway. None of them had bothered to close it when they came in, and she'd come into the room quite silently.
It was a mark of how used to her they were that nobody drew their wands.
"Gin." Said Luna, gesturing to the pillow beside her. She'd saved a place.
Ginny closed the door, walked over to sit with Luna, and continued, "We lived in wartime, but there were days, weeks even, without war. I remember the day in your sixth year, my fifth, that Gryffindor won a match and you kissed me and Ron just about lost his mind."
"I did no such thing! I was very supportive." Said Ron indignantly.
Giggling, Luna added "yes you did, you said you couldn't even look at them, and you wouldn't sit with them for three days."
Hermione smiled, but she didn't say anything, and Harry only grinned at Ginny.
"Like I said, Harry, there were days," said Ginny, looking at him now, "there were days we could live."
Jane Granger was not proud to admit that she'd stopped to listen at the sound of her daughter's voice talking. She had, allegedly, been on her way to the restroom, but she didn't like to lie to herself, so she didn't examine it to closely.
"I remember the sunshine." She was saying.
Frozen in the hallway, Jane dared not move.
"I know it seems silly, but I remember that day we went out to the lake to study for that paper on mandrakes, Harry, you know the one?"
"Yeah, Hagrid was trying to get fang to play fetch with raw cow hide. He was scaring the first years." Harry said with a laugh.
"Yes, that's the one. It was perfect, that day. We sat under that tree we were so fond of, and I quizzed Ron on Herbology until he threatened suicide, and you made me stop by promising you'd make him finish the last six inches of the essay before if was due after the weekend."
"Of course that's what you remember, 'Mione." Ron teased.
Jane almost started at the sound of his voice, she's been so wrapped up in Hermione's words.
Hermione continued, "There was a bit that stayed with me long after we left— it was lying back onto the grass, looking up at the clouds, and thinking that it was the most beautiful day I'd ever seen. It was perfect. The sun was warm and we were together and it was everything, but I knew, then. I knew that it wasn't forever." Hermione sounded so sad that Jane almost burst through the door, but she refrained.
"I know the feeling." Said Luna.
At that, Jane's heart almost broke.
"How did she take it, when you told her?" Asked Neville. "Your mother, about that night at Malfoy Manor."
"I haven't actually told her." Said Hermione.
"I thought you said-"
"I know. About the scar. It was all I could manage, really." Sighing, she added, "I don't know that I ever will tell my parents about those things. They could never really understand, so what good would it do for them to know? They don't—" Hermione stopped, at a loss for words.
"They don't know what it's like to lose yourself to the enemy." Finished Luna.
"Right." said Harry and Hermione at the same time.
"The people on the outside will never know, and I don't think we can let them in. Survivors guilt doesn't cut it; they can't know what any of this is like." Said Ron.
"I can't ever make my mother understand what it's like to come unhinged." Said Hermione, becoming just hysterical enough to sound completely hopeless. "We killed people in cold blood. We killed them and died over and over again with them and people like us can't go back. That's why I didn't do it. I threw it in the fire and watched it die, too and told myself that it would be the last time I killed anything."
"Threw what, 'Mione?" Asked Ginny.
"Oh, ah—"
"The Time-Turner." Said Harry.
"Oh." Said Ginny, with confusion. After a moment— "OH. oh. right, mhmm, the Time-Turner." She said, understanding.
Jane had begun to feel somewhat out of her depth, but she wanted to know. She wanted to learn the things her daughter thought she could not know. She felt heavy under a pile of guilt for staying as long as she had, but she did end up staying just long enough to hear Hermione say, after a long silence:
"It'll weigh heavy on my mind, I think, until the day I die— this life we've lived."
The last thing she heard before she tiptoed away was a resounding chorus of "yeah," "mhmm," and tired sighs.

Thank you Ntsiri, and especially to Mark Griffiths for his time spent with event organisers prior to the big day.

3. Licensing monographs under libre licenses enables the aggregation and repurposing of monographs by additional content providers/intermediaries. The services provided by those intermediaries may increase use by individual readers.


—One of my main purposes has been developing exercises that induce FLOW, a condition that is both internal and external. It happens in the body, in the mind and in the world.
—When you're in the FLOW, your creative impulse is heightened, and your response to events and people is more direct and natural. Problems tend to melt.
Over time, my imagination exercises in Exit From The Matrix can help achieve more FLOW.
To invent the future he truly wants.
That is always my goal.
My 3 Matrix collections—The Matrix Revealed, Exit From The Matrix, Power Outside The Matrix—are not a brush-off. They're meant to be studied and worked with over a long period of time. With many payoffs along the way.
My original inspiration was the ancient Tibetan practitioners, who existed long before the priest class moved in and tried to codify society and spiritual experience. The original magicians were working with raw Space and Time, doing exercises which demonstrated that these two basic qualities of the Universe were malleable and elastic. The Subjective and Objective levels of living were actually One Whole.
And in that Whole the FLOW was pre-eminent and even ecstatic.
Among their Tibetan realizations: a piece of work, an enterprise, and even a civilization could be built on an anticipatory sense of WHAT COMES NEXT. And with their imagination techniques under their belt, some of these magicians knew what came next. They were in that FLOW.
What I'm talking about here connects Zen, Tao, and other ancient practices that also ignore or give short shrift to creative force. When one is in the FLOW, he feels what is coming next, but at the same time he chooses what to create next. This paradox resolves by itself. He creates what he wants to, and he does it in such a way that it INSERTS into existing situations and realities, despite it being brand new.
FLOW. Creative flow. For the individual, this is a new world.

At Mitchell Homes we don't require you to get a costly construction loan for us to build your custom home. But, just because we don't require one doesn't mean people don't wonder about what exactly a construction loan is, or how it differs from a traditional loan from a bank that most people are used to. A construction loan is a loan specifically meant for construction of some kind. Mind you, that's a construction loan at its most basic. The reality of them is what separates them from your more traditional loans.
When applying for a traditional loan the banks looks into your finances to ascertain your ability to repay the loan so they know whether or not they want to take the risk of giving you the loan. All pretty standard really. While a construction loan does in many ways hinge on your ability to repay the loan, there are conditions attached to a construction loan that you don't see with your traditional loan types.
With a construction loan there is special monitoring and guidelines that you don't get with a traditional loan. With a construction loan, the lender can have regular checks and inspections made to ensure that progress is being made on the project. In addition, they can also require you to put up some of your money, called a "loan to cost" requirement, where they only finance part of the project, tying you more securely to the construction and reducing the odds of you walking away should there be an issue with the project.
In addition, while a traditional loan will give you the money in a lump sum once you've been approved, a construction loan will require you to do what's known as a "draw". While there are different methods for completing a draw, it all boils down to ensuring that the funds are being used for the construction project and is another way for the lender to ensure that the project is moving along as scheduled.
This is just an overview of what a construction loan is, but as you can see, it's something that adds another layer of complication to building a home, and something that you don't have to deal with when building with Mitchell Homes, since we're able to build on the strength of our company. Contact us today to learn more about building your custom home, sans construction loan, with us.

Q: MySQL: update a field only if condition is met Is it possible to do an UPDATE query in MySQL which updates field value only if certain condition is met?  Something like this:
UPDATE test
SET
    CASE
        WHEN true
        THEN field = 1
    END
WHERE id = 123

In other words:
UPDATE test
SET
    something = 1,        /*field that always gets updated*/
    CASE
        WHEN true
        THEN field = 1    /*field that should only get updated when condition is met*/
    END
WHERE id = 123

What is the proper way to do this?

A: Another solution which, in my opinion, is easier to read would be:
UPDATE test
    SET something = 1, field = IF(condition is true, 1, field)
    WHERE id = 123

What this does is set 'field' to 1 (like OP used as example) if the condition is met and use the current value of 'field' if not met.  Using the previous value is the same as not changing, so there you go.

A: Another variation:
UPDATE test
SET field = IF ( {condition}, {new value}, field )
WHERE id = 123

This will update the field with {new value} only if {condition} is met

A: Another solution we can use MySQL IF() conditional function :
UPDATE test
SET  field  = IF(something == 1{CONDITION}, 1 {NEW VALUE}, field)
WHERE `id` = 5

A: Yes!
Here you have another example:
UPDATE prices
SET final_price= CASE
   WHEN currency=1 THEN 0.81*final_price
   ELSE final_price
END

This works because MySQL doesn't update the row, if there is no change, as mentioned in docs:

If you set a column to the value it currently has, MySQL notices this
  and does not update it.

A: Try this:
UPDATE test
SET
   field = 1
WHERE id = 123 and condition

A: found the solution with AND condition:
  $trainstrength = "UPDATE user_character SET strength_trains = strength_trains + 1, trained_strength = trained_strength +1, character_gold = character_gold - $gold_to_next_strength WHERE ID = $currentUser AND character_gold > $gold_to_next_strength";

Marco Sanudo († 1227) war ein venezianischer Adliger, der zum Herzog von Archipelagos aufstieg.

Er war ein Neffe des venezianischen Dogen Enrico Dandolo und Teilnehmer des Vierten Kreuzzugs, in dessen Verlauf 1204 Konstantinopel erobert wurde und bei dem er eine venezianische Flotte in die byzantinische Hauptstadt führte.

Im Jahr 1207 eroberte er mit Hilfe von acht von Venedig ausgeliehenen Galeeren die Insel Naxos, wo er das Herzogtum Archipelagos gründete und sich selbst zum Herzog machte.

Der Feldzug war ein Unternehmen, das nicht mit Heinrich von Flandern, dem Herrscher des Lateinischen Kaiserreichs, abgestimmt war. Sanudo wurde von Marino Dandolo und Andrea und Geremia Ghisi begleitet, aber auch von Ravano dalle Carceri, dem Herrn von Euböa, und Philocalo Navigaioso, dem Herrn von Lemnos.
Er begann die Eroberung der Insel, indem er in den Hafen von Potamidides im Südwesten von Naxos einfuhr. Die orthodoxen Naxioten ergaben sich nicht ohne Gegenwehr: im Landesinneren hielten sie die Festung Apalyros, die sich erst nach fünf- oder sechswöchiger Belagerung Sanudo ergab, trotz der Unterstützung durch Genua, die sich durch die Piratenaktionen der Venezianer vom Ägäishandel ausgeschlossen sahen.

Mit Naxos in seiner Hand eroberte Sanudo 1210 Melos und den Rest der Kykladen. Er ließ eine starke Festung errichten und teilte die Inseln in 56 Provinzen auf, die er als feudale Lehen unter den Anführern seiner Männer verteilte, die sich ihm zumeist in Erwartung derartiger Belohnungen angeschlossen und bislang ihre Kosten selbst getragen hatten.

Er selbst regierte 20 Jahre lang (1207–1227) als Herzog Marcos I., umgeben von lateinischen Seigneurs auf mehr als zwei Dutzend Inseln, von denen einige ihm den Treueid leisteten, andere direkt dem Kaiser in Konstantinopel. Sanudos persönlicher Besitz waren die Inseln Paros, Antiparos, Melos, Sifnos, Kithnos, Ios, Amorgos, Kimolos, Sikinos, Syros und Pholegandros.

Als er 1227 starb, folgte ihm sein Sohn Angelo als Herzog von Archipelagos. Seine Familie regierte das Herzogtum bis 1383, als sie durch einen Aufstand der Crispos gestürzt wurden, die sich an ihrer Stelle auf den Thron setzten.

Thermal insulation for roofs savings on energy. Do you cringe when the temperature extremes of summer and winter hit? These are the times when the utility bills go through the roof… literally. Despite what most people know about the importance of roof insulation. Very few actually follow up on it. Do you know what kind of insulation your roof has? Maybe it's time to find out.
A properly insulated roof can keep a home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Saving you hundreds of Rands a year at the same time. But, it's not in the forefront of people's minds. As they don't spend their time checking out their attic and roof space. Most of their activities center around living areas and they take care of what they can see. Before the next temperature extreme hits, you really need to take a look at your Roof Insulation.
It's probably good to explain what thermal insulation actually does. Thermal insulation is material (or a combination of materials) which creates a boundary between temperature differences in hot and cold and slows the heat transfer. It may be related to conduction, convection, or radiation. Whatever the method of heat transfer, you need insulation to help slow down the process. Thermal insulation does just that – and it does it effectively. When using air airconditioners in your home or office good thermal insulation will reduce running costs. In fact, Ceiling Insulation for your home will give many years of energy saving and comfort.
There are a number of types of Thermal Insulation Products available. Isotherm is one of the most popular Roof Insulation products followed closely by Aerolite. When it comes to insulation for your home. Certain standards that must be met and the different types are rated by their R-value. This is a measure of resistance to heat flow when it passes through a specific thickness of the material. In the Western Cape region, a R-value of 3.70 is compulsory on all new homes. R-value is be achieved by insulating with the 145mm Isotherm or the 135mm Aerolite. The higher the R-value, the better the roof insulation should be in keeping the internal temperatures more stable.
Isotherm Insulation is one of the most common Insulation materials installed in the Cape region. Homeowners are very much eco-friendly orientated. Thinking more of the environment than most other cities in South Africa. Isotherm is manufactured from recycled plastic bottles. Making Isotherm one of the worlds most eco-friendly insulation products.
While it is common to use fiberglass Thermal Insulation (Aerolite), there are those who believe that it may be a health hazard with its small fibers, however, the opponents are not in the majority. Still, if you are one who prefers a more eco-friendly Roof Insulation, there are options available for you, too.
Heating and cooling costs are already a problem in a struggling economy, and it's unbelievable how many people are wasting energy unnecessarily. Take the time to talk to someone about upgrading your roof insulation. Heating and cooling should recover the cost of the insulation in Two to Three years.

The 24 karat gold-plated Nintendo Wii made for the Queen can be yours for $300,000
May 4, 2021 May 4, 2021 jetessayscom
You might own some special edition consoles, but can you count a 24 karat gold-plated Nintendo Wii among your collection? Unlikely. There really was one made, for Queen Elizabeth II, no less, and it's now available on eBay for $300,000.
The world's most expensive Wii (presumably), was commissioned in 2009 by publisher THQ, a few years before it went out of business and its trademark and some properties were acquired by Nordic Games.
The console was a promotion for THQ's Neighbourhood Games, known as Big Family Games in PAL regions. The marketing stunt saw THQ attempt to send the golden Wii and a copy of the game to the UK's Queen.
In 2019, People Make Games' Chris Bratt discovered that, unsurprisingly, the console never made it into HRH Elizabeth II's hands. He managed to track it down to collector Donny Fillerup, one of the founders of consolevariations.com.
Fillerup puts "Moving on with life" as the reason for the sale. "I've been in one place for my whole life, it's time to get my own place. At times it has been difficult for me to have free time or relax. Lately it's all CV and my daily job. When I come home, I don't get to spend a lot of 'me time' so I would like to take the step and move on," he said.
The console is in working order, though it's unlikely anyone would want to take it out of the display case to confirm this. It includes framed documents and emails as proof of authenticity. A separate authentication, including serial number and signatures, will be issued by the experts of consolevariations.com.
For those with an impressive disposable income, the gold-plated Wii is now on eBay for $300,000.

Not enough NGOs consider paying story contributors - Laura Elizabeth Pohl, humanitarian photographer
"A lot of us get into this work with NGOs because we want to make a difference but there are times when NGOs are actually doing more harm and they're not living up to their standard of being humanitarian."
This episode features Laura Elizabeth Pohl, a humanitarian photographer, filmmaker, writer and editor from the US living in Cape Town, South Africa. Laura prides herself on producing stories about issues like immigration, agriculture, healthcare access and economic and social justice in an ethical way with care and respect for the dignity of the people featured. Her work for international NGOs has taken her to more than 20 countries. Laura was previously an entertainment journalist and interviewed celebrities including Britney Spears, and Mary J. Blige, and also worked as a Dow Jones business reporter in Korea, before she transitioned into photojournalism. The founder and co-editor of NGO Storytelling, a website to inform and inspire humanitarian storytellers, Laura also hosts her own podcast, Creative + Moneywise, where she interviews other photographers about their real-life money stories and career paths.
In this episode, we consider this question: should the people featured in NGO stories be paid? We discuss the pros and cons of offering individuals compensation for sharing stories which are used by organisations to raise funds or advance their advocacy goals. We also hear Laura's reflections on some of the unethical behaviour she's witnessed when gathering stories in countries across the world, such as when she was sent to interview a struggling family in the DRC – who were receiving no support from the international nonprofit that selected them. This episode contains useful tips as to how NGOs and their storytellers can help the people featured in their communications to feel more valued.

Going undercover always carries a risk – Ed Davey, environmental investigative journalist
This episode features Ed Davey, the head of rainforest investigations at the international NGO Global Witness, where he leads a team dedicated to exposing the destruction of the world's most important rainforests. In 2018 he helped reveal how the world's top three commodity traders were embroiled in one of the biggest corruption cases of all time. Previously he spent eight years specialising in undercover journalism at the BBC where his work was featured on programmes such as Panorama, Newsnight, and the national News at Six, as well as writing for publications including the New Statesman and the Mail on Sunday. At 38, he's also the author of three novels – Foretold by Thunder, The Napoleon Complex and The Killing Gene – published under the name EM Davey. He has visited more than 60 countries and African countries feature in all his novels.
In this episode, we chat about what it's like to work in investigative journalism for an NGO, getting the low-down on how Global Witness carries out its campaigns focused on complex international corruption and environmental crime, and how the job differs to working for a media outlet. We also hear eye-opening stories from Ed's career as a journalist going undercover to expose everything from unscrupulous building firms to unethical fertility clinics, and learn about his astonishing trip to Benin, West Africa, to make a BBC documentary about voodoo sorcery after a friend told him he'd seen a voodoo priest cut off his wife's head and then reattach it…

Together, we discuss Sarika's biggest bugbears when it comes to language use in the international NGO sector, scrutinising words and phrases such as "giving voice to the voiceless," "capacity building," "third world," and "beneficiaries". We also get her top tips on how to language that empowers contributors and upholds their dignity, as well as delving into the moral quandary that is voluntourism and asking: Is there an ethical way for a young, privileged person to spend time in a poorer community?
Do no harm also applies to journalism – Thin Lei Win, humanitarian correspondent
This episode features Thin Lei Win, an award-winning Burmese climate change, food security and humanitarian correspondent living in Italy. We discuss whether the foreign correspondent model is due a reckoning following a recent reporting trip by CNN International to Myanmar to cover the country's recent military coup. The media outlet was widely criticised for the trip, with many accusing it of downplaying the role played by local journalists and for causing harm as 11 local sources were arrested after speaking to CNN's reporter.

The variety of voices gathered so far is fantastic
As someone with several years of experience working in conflict zones I found this podcast extremely engaging, not only for the themes discussed in it but because the presenter really seems to understand the challenges that humanitarians and journalists face while on assignment. Looking forward to listening to more episodes.

Q: about Variable name member prefixes
Possible Duplicate:
Why should (or shouldn't) I prefix fields with 'm_' in C#?

I am reading CLEAN CODE
there is one paragraph about member prefixed.
THe author suggests not using m_ anymore.
such as:
public class Part{
  private String m_dsc;
  void setName(String name){
    m_dsc - name;
  }
}

should be:
public class Part{
  String description;
  void setDescription(String description){
    this.description = description'
  }
}

My question is, why we use m_ before?
And, this book is using Java as an example.
Is this suggestion good for c# ? what about c++
Thank you!

A: m_ is variant of Hungarian notation - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_notation.
Using it or not is personal/team call, but the recommendation to not to use prefixes for fields is a long standing one for C# - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229012.aspx .

A: The m_ prefix makes it easy to differentiate member variables with local variables or parameters.
This is valid for classes in object oriented languages (so, yes C#, C++, etc.)
Now, with the advances in IDEs, the m_ prefix doesn't seem to be as useful though (in the case where you're wondering if a variable is a class member or not, it's easy and fast to go to definition.)

Titans run over the Lions
Michael David Smith
The Titans are continuing their march to the AFC South title, and continuing to emphasize the ground game.
Today against the Lions, Titans running back Derrick Henry continued his srong season, quarterback Ryan Tannehill ran for two touchdowns and passed for three touchdowns, and the Titans beat the Lions 46-25.
The win improves the Titans' record to 10-4, and they remain in first place in the AFC South. If they win their last two games, the Titans win the division.
The Lions are now 5-9, and as if it weren't obvious, definitely not in the playoff race. Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford gutted it out through a rib injury and played well, but he couldn't do it all himself, and once the game was out of reach in the fourth quarter, the Lions took Stafford out. The Lions' defense was no match for Tannehill, Henry and company, and the Lions' special teams had a couple of costly miscues.
A year ago, Tennessee was peaking at the right time and ended up making a surprise run to the AFC Championship Game. This year's Titans team may be poised to go on another impressive postseason run.
Titans run over the Lions originally appeared on Pro Football Talk


"On-Premises" and "Off-Premises" POS (Point of Sales) materials for Miller Genuine Draft (Sab-Miller Brazil). These were all presented at Latin America Sab-Miller Convention in Argentina (2012). The mass produced took place in Brazil, Israel, India and China.
In 2013, I co-founded the creative shop, ElectriQ, with my partner Paulo Equi. We were focused on enhancing the consumer experience by using cutting-edge technology at the Point-of-Purchase. Paulo and I had spent many years in the advertising industry, and we'd become tired of having great ideas, but coming up to roadblocks when we couldn't find the right partners to execute upon our ideas. So, our shop consisted of one designer and one developer mashing up hardware, software, and compelling ideas for clients hungry for innovation.

Festagram is a service created by EletriQ to boost Instagram® posts during events. Event goers are encouraged to share their moments on Instagram to receive prints of their photos to take home, and the event host sees an uptick in usage of the event hashtag, which helps promote the event itself on social media. The whole process takes less than 30 seconds after a photo is posted. The Festagram has been made available at over 1.000 events across Brazil.
The MIT Hacking Arts is a 2-day event that brings together a series of panel discussions, a tech expo and a hackathon in a multi-school lead initiative. This is where technology and entrepreneurship meet creative arts in its many forms. It first started with students from the MIT Sloan School of Management and for the 3rd edition it was time to rethink the brand bringing it closer to a professional look and feel.
This was my first design "work" for MIT.
VR@MIT is an exciting new initiative to support entrepreneurship and community in virtual and augmented realities at MIT. They are the ones working to bring together tech titans, creatives and VR enthusiasts and practitioners to help shape the future of virtual/mixed/augmented realities.
I had the pleasure of designing their logo and helping to set the visual communication's guidelines for this amazing initiative.
For the 4th edition in 2016 I was the Co-Director with another MIT Student. We were responsible for coordenate a team of 40+ people between students from MIT and others schools and some young professionals fomr Boston area.
In March 2016, a friend of mine had this crazy idea of developing a campaign for an energy company from the Czech Republic. The company was executing an extensive program to incentivize people to make good use of energy in their daily lives . One simple example was maximizing the usage of office appliances . Imagine a kettle that Tweets to let anyone nearby know that the water has just finishing boiling, so no energy is wasted to reheat lukewarm water.
While working at EletriQ I had a simple idea to create hub stations for public spaces in the city that could be used for charging portable devices and give free access to high-speed data. All this, sponsored at first by the Sao Paulo's Development Bureal (ADESAMPA) and later on by private companies interested in investing in certain communities.
In 2011 Brazil was facing very optimistic momentum that didn't look like it was going to end anytime soon. I was working at Banco de Eventos and the agency was picked to be one of the first ones in the country to start working on the FIFA World Cup projects for 2014. Because of the importance of a Soccer World Cup in Brazil the agency decide to have a dedicated structure just for FIFA. I've been always really detail focused and organised with work so they let me lead the creative team in the unity. The results were awesome not only for the cliente (FIFA) but also because we had direct contact with all the sponsors on FWC2014 we were able to create new commercial relationships and convert them into clients too.
What make you choose one specific car and not the other one may be the design, the engine, all the safety features... But what makes you keep-up with the same brand on your next purchase is one thing: The experience you had. So the best way to retain your costumer and get the feedbacks to always improve is to keep your after-sales team running smooth and focused.
The idea was to bring all major VW suppliers and dealership owner together on a weekend of workshops and negotiations to "Fight for Costumers". The boxing fight theme was used all around the location to fuel their motivation on fighting back against the competition of other brands.
Crocs are very popular, specially during the summer. The "Crocs' Summer HQ" worked as a platform for Crocs' brand activation camapin during the summer of 2012 (Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro). Crocs was also sponsoring the State Wakeboard Championship that year and they needed materials that were durable, easy to transport and stack that the could use all summer. I came up with a set of tents, benches and signs all made with renewable materials that were able to stand-out even on the most densely populated beaches.
Volkswagen Talentos is a annual award ceremony that conclude the year-long incentive program for VW employees to come-up with improvements on their departments around the assembly plans in the country.
To make it even more interesting that year we decide to ask some of the employees to add performances of their own, pretty much like the "America's Got Talent", without the judges in the end. The message was clear: Innovation only comes with creativity and you can't limit yourself to have amazing ideas only from "9 to 5".
The record breaker in sales!
Even before joining the Grupo Pão de Açucar (2009), Casas Bahia was already the biggest retail chain in Brazil with over 500 stores.
Besides these facts, between 2003~2009 they started having a seasonal mega-store for christmas called Super Casas Bahia. It was the biggest seasonal store in the world at the time attending over 2 million consumers during the holiday season.
I had the opportunity to work on the creative team in 2008, at the São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro locations and participate on the creative planning for 2009 and 2010. The last year, the store was cancelled due the fusion with Grupo Pão de Açucar and restructure of business.
As of March 2016, the company has 745 stores in the country.
Participating on a rally race is one of the most extremes sports that I have been in. You drive a 4WD car at high-speed on a bumpy "road" against the clock. To make sure that everybody is as safe as possible and you go back home with amazing stories not enjuries, you need the best team organising everything.
Rallymakers is a company focused on racing sports in Brazil. The are responsible for 2 of 7 stages of the Brazilian Cross-Country Rally Championship. What first started as a re-brand job became one major client for all marketing material and internet.
If you would like to know more about Rallymakers visit its website here.
After doing some works for FIFA the Brazilian Olympic Committee (COB) got in touch with the agency I was working to get some ideas on how to explore the business ecosystem within the Summer Olympics of 2016.
We create a forum loaded with workshops and invited all the best specialist in sponsorship, engagement marketing and press to nourish the beginning of talks. I was responsible for creating and coordinating all visuals.
In Brazil, Whirlpool owns some of the top brands on appliances. Two of them are the most common brands on almost any household: Brastemp and Consul. They both share some similarities but they are completely different when it comes to communication.
So they ask the agency I was working at the time to come up with a way to release 12 new products on the same event to media and retail but making sure all the guests would understand the differences between brands and line of products. It wasn't easy but not impossible! The solution was to create a village with stereotypes of consumers to make the understanding much easier.

How do venture capital deals get done?
Entrepreneurs should always understand how deals get done at the venture capital firms they're pitching.
Some firms operate on a consensus basis. In this case, every partner in the firm needs to approve a deal before a termsheet is issued. This is usually the case for firms with a small number (< 10) investment professionals. If you're working with a firm that operates in this manner, an entrepreneur will need to find a champion for their deal.
This champion is someone who believes in your company, wants to invest, and then will work to convince the rest of the partnership that the firm should move forward with an investment. The champion could be a senior person at the firm but it could also be someone at a lower level, like an associate. If you are working with a lower level person it will likely take longer for your deal to get through the firm's process.
So, if you have the ability to get partner level attention for your deal, great. However, if you're not able to get a partner's attention initially (and most startups are not), make sure you empower the junior VC staffer to make the case for your company within the partnership. That includes accepting coaching from the junior VC, since they'll be introducing you to the other members of the firm and will want you to customize your pitch to hit the key issues that appeal to the other members of the firm's investment committee.
Other firms (typically larger ones in both fund size and personnel size) tend to grant more autonomy to partners and allow them to invest without obtaining permission from the partnership. Partners in these firms tend to have fairly focused investment themes and sectors that they pursue (for example, a partner who only covers enterprise software, or only does wireless deals, etc) In this case, you only need to convince a couple of people (the partner and the junior person who is likely supporting them) that your company is a worthwhile investment.
The bottom line is that the deal process varies by firm and it is helpful to understand how the VC firms you're pitching operate.

Since 1922, the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) has sponsored the public observance of Fire Prevention Week. During the event, children, adults, and teachers learn how to stay safe in case of a fire. Firefighters provide lifesaving public education in an effort to drastically decrease casualties caused by fires.
In 1925, President Calvin Coolidge proclaimed Fire Prevention Week a national observance, making it the longest-running public health observance in our country.


Depending on certain conditions, incoming mails need to be moved to a different folder, deleted from server or processed in some other way.
All incoming mails must be re-sent to another email address.
Whenever new mails arrive into the account, sender must get an automated notification of some kind.
One common thing about the above items is that WebMail Pro cannot do any of those. Action should be performed regardless of whether you're logged into WebMail or not. In fact, mailserver itself needs to perform those actions, but how do we ask it to do that?
That's where Sieve comes into play. In fact, Sieve is a scripting language, and it allows for telling mailserver how it should process mails. Naturally, mailserver needs to have Sieve support, but it's not enough. You will also need ManageSieve service installed on mailserver. Yes, that's right, setting it up on a separate webmail box won't work.
Technically, ManageSieve is a thing somewhat close to FTP server: you cannot upload files to webserver directly, as you don't have access to its filesystem, so you need an intermediary. Similarly, ManageSieve service is a software which lets email client and mail server talk to each other.
There's a good chance that your server already has both Sieve support and ManageSieve service installed, and you'll need to check that first. If the first condition isn't met, this might get very complicated, up to the level where recompiling mailserver is required. As for ManageSieve, it can be installed and configured relatively simply. For example, there is Pigeonhole agent created for Dovecot mail server. Bear in mind though, we're speaking of mailserver software here, so it's assumed you're pretty good at what you're doing.
In the ideal case, i.e. when Sieve support is available and ManageSieve server is up and running, all you need to do is to enable Sieve support in WebMail.
Check Use Sieve for filtering documentation page for detailed information on configuring Sieve support in WebMail Pro.


Lefroy Exploration's focus is on the discovery of multi-million ounce greenfields gold deposits at its flagship Lefroy Gold Project south of Kalgoorlie where the company has achieved exciting early stage exploration results, including at its Lucky Strike, Hang Glider Hill and Capstan prospects.
Lefroy Exploration Limited has partnered with global major gold producer Goldfields (JSE:GFI) who are currently spending up to A$25m to earn up an interest of up to 70% in the Western tenements of LEX's Lefroy Gold Project. The tenements within the JV cover and area of 372km2 and are adjacent to Goldfields 10+ million ounce St Ives Gold Camp.
Gold Fields will manage all exploration activities during the farm-in period and brings extensive regional geological knowledge to the project having developed St Ives into a world class gold district.
