Designed as a thrilling blend of role-playing and action Pirates of the Caribbean takes place in a large group of Caribbean islands during the golden age of piracy and high seas adventure. You will take command of a ship and its crew, swordfight with other captains, accept and complete daring quests, chase rumors of dangers and riches, and change allegiances amongst the colonial powers in the game. Through skill and daring, you will have the ability to obtain more power than the toughest captains in history ever dreamed possible.
You will be able to customize your captain, crew, skills, and attributes to their individual liking. During shore leave on the many fanciful islands, players can interact with townspeople and shopkeepers to replenish stores of ammo and crew, and explore the wilderness in search of adventure and treasure!
A party-based system on land and at sea allows you to hire friendly captains to form small fleets of ships for trade or battle, and your own band of adventurers when on land. Ultimately, you will be able to control your destiny by following the game story or sailing off in a search of pirate loot.
Pirates of the Caribbean features advanced AI, incredibly detailed characters and vessels, breath taking views at sea, and lush, exotic environments. Enhancing the game's realism, wind and water conditions will affect how ships sail and fight. Day and night lighting and jaw-dropping water effects make the game come alive.
- An epic role-playing game on land and at sea
- Gorgeous graphics and realistic weather effects
- Open-ended gameplay set in exotic locales
- Exciting high seas battles and thrilling duels
- Inspired by the feature film coming July 9th
About Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons with 7 comments by Pieter_Boelen on May 16th, 2014
Build 14 Beta 3.2 is now available from our Downloads Section. If you are upgrading from a previous Beta 3 version, you only need the "Part 1: Installation Wizard". If you are doing a brand new install, use the "Part 2: Contents Archive" as well.NEW GAME REQUIRED!
Besides historical accuracy, we want this to remain an RPG too. So we have some new features included to specifically enhance this elements of the game.
When you start on your adventure you won't be able to get all the abilities right from the start. Some of them are now locked and each one has a separate way of unlocking. For example by buying and reading a relevant book or doing other relevant things. There will be hints regarding these actions on the lower difficulty levels.
The whole Caribbean itself is also made more dynamic. Events you read about in the Town News now have an noticeable impact. If a island is poor, less merchants will be sailing around this island on the worldmap. If an island has a large military, you will find more battles around.
The goods which an island import and export can change as well. Again, this will be noted in the Town News. And towns may need your help sometimes. If an island exhausts all of its resources on a certain project, you can go there to make a tidy profit!
Yes, it is no longer "always full moon"! While not providing a major impact on the gameplay (yet!), it does vastly improve the realistic feeling while sailing at sea. The dates at which the moon phases occur are even historically correct!
A curious ship indeed, the Polacca is not a regular sight in the Caribbean. But she has made the crossing from Southern Europe and can now be used for pirating or trading. A good all-round ship that should prove a lot of fun in the early game.
A lot of ships have been improved again, with redone rigging and new textures. But none more so than the Fast Galleons, which have had their models thoroughly improved. A great sight indeed!
Our first-ever unique storyline gets extended once again! This time as a collaborative effort between two of our senior quest writers. With more content still in progress.
After stealing the golden throne at Havana, Bartolomeu's crew mutinies and leaves you marooned on a tiny islet. One lucky escape later and you find yourself once more in the employ of the Portuguese governor of Grenada. In fact, the famous Dutch mercenary, Johan Elting, will be helping you on this one. Good thing too, as infiltrating the city of Cartagena is not going to be easy.
Using a false identity of Spanish royal envoy to accomplish your task, you decide that the warship "San Martin" must be captured! But not before falling in love with the governor's daughter and getting into a tangle with her suitor and his men. Hidden tunnels, secret caves and a daring rescue await!
While not yet finished, we want to give you a tease of what to expect in an upcoming update!
Based on the short story "The Gold-Bug" by Edgar Allen Poe, this brand new storyline contains many clever puzzles and interesting locations. Made by the same writer who created the Woodes Rogers story and with the same incredible attention to detail.
Is there anything after "New Horizons"? Well yes, of course there is! More "New Horizons", to be exact. Another update is always around the corner.
But do not forget about our completely free and independent Age of Sail game project:

Dr. Michael Treece's Ratings
Dr. Treece is very knowledgeable and well informed, patient and kind with kids and parents alike. He is very approachable, easy to reach on the phone, and encourages questions. I couldn't ask for more in a pediatrician. He is flexible and respectful of our nontraditional parenting choices, and never undermines our confidence as parents. He is strongly pro-breastfeeding but again is respectful of individual parents' choices and does not push his agenda in a negative way at all. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Going into the NBA season, it's easy enough to place expectations on LeBron James, Kobe Bryant or Kevin Durant, they are established stars that will play leading roles for their respective teams.
While situations might be different for stars moving to new teams, like Steve Nash, Dwight Howard or Joe Johnson, they have still set a certain performance standard that is expected to continue in their new uniforms.
This article seeks out some of the players that might be looking at new and better opportunities this season; maybe a move into a starting role, or just a regular turn in the rotation for the first time, giving these players an increase in potential value.
Glen Davis, PF, Orlando - Big Baby has been hanging on in a reserve role for five NBA seasons, but started a dozen games down the stretch last season, averaging 16.4 points and 8.8 rebounds per game in April. With the Magic frontcourt gutted (losing Howard and Ryan Anderson), Davis now has an opportunity to be the primary option on the low block and he leads the Magic with 17.7 points per game in the preseason, so he could be the primary scorer on a team lacking an established scoring option.
Andrew Bynum, C, Philadelphia - Unlike others on this list, Bynum has been in a starter's role for the better part of the last six seasons and averaged career-highs in points (18.7), rebounds (11.8) and field-goal attempts (13.3), setting the stage for Bynum to take over as the centrepiece of the 76ers' offence.Unfortunately, a knee problem has kept Bynum on the sidelines for the entire preseason, preventing him from establishing his place as a player who can take a lot of the shots that departed Philadelphia this summer when Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand and Lou Williams (32.1 field goal attempts per game between them) departed. A healthy Bynum could put up 24-12 as the 76ers' first option, but we'll have to wait and see when that might happen.
Andrei Kirilenko, SF, Minnesota - During his 10 previous NBA seasons, Andrei Kirilenko has never failed to register at least one block and one steal per game, topping out at 1.9 steals (2003-04) and 3.3 blocks (2004-05). After a year playing in Russia, Kirilenko returns to the NBA and even if the 31-year-old isn't a big scorer -- he averaged under a dozen points per game in each of his last five seasons -- he can fill the stat sheet enough to hold fantasy appeal.
Brandon Roy, SG, Minnesota - The sixth overall pick in the 2006 draft quickly became a franchise player in Portland, averaging 21.1 points per game in three seasons from 2007 through 2010, but chronic knee problems forced him to retire, perhaps prematurely as it turns out. Roy may not be the go-to guy for the T-Wolves, but he's easily capable of starting at shooting guard. If his knee holds up and he delivers 15-17 points per game, that would not only be a remarkable comeback story, but a value play for fantasy owners.
J.J. Hickson, C, Portland - Inconsistency has prevented Hickson from earning a steady starting job through his first four years in the league, but he took advantage of an opportunity with the Trail Blazers late last season, putting up 17.2 points and 9.5 rebounds per game in 19 games after he was waived by Sacramento (who obviously had no room a guy averaging 9.2 ppg and 9.9 rpg in 35 games). Hickson, at 6-foot-9, is undersized as centres go, but his quickness gives him an advantage and if he can simply hold the starting job, he's going to be productive enough to provide value.
Omer Asik, C, Houston - After signing an offer sheet with the Rockets, for three years and more than $25-million, Asik goes from playing a dozen minutes per game for the Bulls to Houston's starting lineup. Even if he's not much of an offensive threat, Asik can contribute in other ways. For example, over the last two seasons, he ranks fifth in rebounds per 36 minuts (12.0) and eighth in blocks per 36 minutes (2.3), so Asik can be an effective big man, even if he doesn't have a significant offensive contribution.
Kirk Hinrich, PG, Chicago - For as long as Derrick Rose is sidelined, which could conceivably be all season, Hinrich is slated to be the Bulls' starting point guard, just as he was from from 2003 to 2010. After setting career-lows in points (6.6), assists (2.8) and minutes (25.8) per game with Atlanta last season, Hinrich has an opportunity to play 30 minutes with the Bulls' first team and therefore return to fantasy relevance, at least for those in deep leagues.
Gerald Green, SF, Indiana - A first-round pick in 2005, Green has largely flamed out to this point, bouncing around to five teams and starting a total of 43 games. However, he earned a shot in New Jersey last year and dunked his way onto the highlight reels, earning a three-year, $10.5-million contract with the Pacers. Backing up Danny Granger and Paul George on the wings may not offer prime minutes for Green, but after averaging 12.9 points in 25.2 minutes with the Nets last season and 12.7 points in 26.0 minutes per game in the preseason, 26-year-old Green does look like he's ready to start fulfilling some of that promise that he showed as a teenager.
Patrick Patterson, PF, Houston - Patterson has started a total of seven games through his first two seasons with the Rockets, but appears to be first in line to replace Luis Scola in the starting lineup this year. While his numbers aren't terribly productive (7.1 ppg, 4.2 rpg in 20.3 mpg) through his first two years, moving into the starting lineup should give him more chances to shoot. In the preseason, for example, Patterson has averaged 10.8 field goal attempts in 23.8 minutes per game and if he ends up playing 28-30 minutes as a starter, getting that many touches will mean a legitimate opportunity to produce.
Nikola Vucevic and Gustavo Ayon, C, Orlando - A pair of second-year pivots given the job of filling Dwight Howard's sizeable shoes. Ayon is sidelined for a couple of weeks with a sprained thumb, leaving Vucevic, who has been productive in the preseason. While playing only 20.5 minutes per game, Vucevic has averaged 8.7 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, which could translate into double-double numbers if he holds the starter's role.

Nica Info
This section of the site contains information about Nicaragua and its regions. The information is organized with general Nicaraguan information followed by departments (states). Within each department are separate entries for cities and areas. Note that in Spanish countries the capital city of a department often takes the same name as the department. In this Nica Info section are many links (short cuts) directly to the regional photo galleries on this site. You can also browse the entire collection via the Photos menu.
Where are we? This link to Nicaragua maps will probably help.
Nicaragua for the Majority
While the distinction between the "tourist face" and how the majority live exists in most countries, it is more significant in Nicaragua than many other countries. As this site is primarily for people that live or are considering living in Nicaragua, it is important that this distinction be pointed out.
The majority of Nicaraguans are poor. If you live in the developed world, you will probably say "dirt poor". This doesn't make them unhappy and that is important to realize. It does, however, help explain why theft is generally considered "exercising an opportunity" rather than "a crime".
The rural poor live off what they can grow and trade with their neighbors. Excesses are sold in public markets to buy what they need but can't grow. Typically that means cooking oil, clothing and supplies such as barbed wire. Families tend to work together with children quickly evolving from a family responsibility to a work unit.
City poor don't have the option of growing their own crops. Thus, they work wherever they can. That may mean domestic work in other's houses, making tortillas or nacatamales to sell or being in the "recycling business" meaning scrounging through discards to find anything useful.
While this may sound like a depressing picture, it is the reality. The plus side is that you can make a difference. For example, while $1 may not seem like much to you, it is more than enough to feed an entire family for a day. Think about that. It doesn't have to mean "welfare". Buying food from a street vendor or fritanga instead of McDonald's can make a big difference.
Even if you elect to live in "upper class" areas, be aware that the poor are there and they help make your lifestyle possible. For example, if you live in a gated community, it is probably the poor that clean your house and grow the food that you eat.
Nicaragua's Dual Citizenship Requirement
Dario 1958
Does the new Nicaraguan law apply to US citizens who were born in Nicaragua but don't claim dual citizenship? Does this law only apply to US Citizens who still hold on to a Nicaraguan passport? If law applies to any US Citizen born in Nicaragua, this law will create a hardship on people who will travel to visit their families, especially in emergency situations (i.e. to visit sick parents or attend a funeral). How can they impose this law with people getting ready to travel in 3 months for Purisima and XMAS. Getting a "cedula" (identification) in Nicaragua is no easy or fast thing even in non-election situations. How is a working person from US is supposed to take more work time to go through bureaucracy of getting a cedula. Sandinista government lacks resources to set up an on-line system to seek cedulas or Nicaraguan passports. Ultimately it will be people in Nicaragua who will suffer the most when relatives don't visit & bring them dollars because of hassles and risk of delays. Tourism businesses will also suffer, hurting Nicaragua's working people.
A visa requirement would be understandable and wouldn't mind paying the fee. But it is outrageous that Nicaragua would take away my freedom to choose the passport of which country I want to travel under.
Let's turn this around
Would the US government allow you to enter the US on a Nicaraguan passport?
My guess is that this change (if it is a real change other than actually just potential enforcement) was inspired by lack of equal treatment on the other end. Similar to how a usano now needs to pay something like $130 for a visa to travel to Bolivia because that is the requirement for Bolivianos to travel to the US.

The Phillies have lost three in a row, dropping the first two in their recent funk because of their starting pitching and last night's game in spite of it. Kendrick was better than good enough in the opener with the Nationals, holding the Nats to two runs over seven innings, but the Phils frustrated at the plate and on the bases as they fell 2-1.
The 4-5-6 hitters in the lineup combined to go 0-for-9 with 16 men left on base in the game. The base-running issues peaked in the bottom of the sixth inning when the Phillies failed to score after putting runners on second and third with nobody out. Pence got the first chance to bring the runners home and hit a ball into center, but Rick Ankiel made a diving catch for the first out with Polanco too far off of third to tag up and score a run the Phils would need desperately.
On the plus side, the bullpen has quietly been excellent as the Phils dropped three straight, throwing 8 2/3 scoreless innings in those games. Last night Raul Valdes tossed two perfect frames in relief of Kendrick, dropping the bullpen ERA for the year to 4.88 (29th of 30 MLB teams).
The Phillies are 21-22 on the year after losing to the Washington Nationals 2-1 last night. The Phils have lost three games in a row and are 1-3 against the Nats this year.
Kendrick got the start for the Phillies and went seven innings, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks. One of the hits went for extra-bases, a home run. He struck out four and dropped his ERA on the year to 5.23. He has a 2.25 ERA over his last four starts and the Phillies have lost three of those games. The Phillies are 1-9 for the year in which Kendrick has appeared (five starts and five relief appearances).
Bryce Harper singled to center with one out in the top of the first, but Kendrick got Ryan Zimmerman to hit into a double-play behind him.
Kendrick got Adam LaRoche to fly to center for the first out in the second, but Ian Desmond was next and Desmond hit the first pitch he saw from Kendrick out to center, putting the Nats up 1-0. Kendrick got Danny Espinosa and Rick Ankiel on a pair of ground balls behind Desmond.
Kendrick has allowed five home runs in 32 2/3 innings on the year, which is the worst home run rate for any of the team's starters other than Worley. Worley has allowed seven home runs in 44 innings.
Jesus Flores led off the third with a single to center and the pitcher Gio Gonzalez bunted him to second with the first out. Steve Lombardozzi was next and flew to right. Flores tagged and moved up to third with two down. Harper was the next batter and Kendrick's 2-2 pitch to him was in the dirt and got away from Ruiz. Flores tried to score from third, but Ruiz threw to Kendrick covering home and Kendrick tagged Flores out on a close play at the plate to end the frame.
Harper led off the fourth with a single and stole second before Kendrick struck out Zimmerman for the first out. He walked the lefty LaRoche on four pitches, putting men on first and second for Desmond and Desmond singled into left, scoring Harper to make it 2-0 and moving LaRoche up to second. Kendrick walked Espinosa on five pitches to load the bases, but struck Ankiel out swinging for the second out and got Flores on a ground ball to third to set Washington down.
Two walks in the innings for Kendrick, but the strikeout of Ankiel with one out and the bases loaded was huge. Two RBI for Desmond through four innings in a game in which the Phillies would score one run.
Kendrick set the Nats down in order in the fifth, sixth and seventh. Mayberry made a fantastic play for the second out of the inning in the sixth, diving to his right to field a ball hit hard by LaRoche and flipping to Kendrick covering first to record the out.
Raul Valdes started the eighth and got pinch-hitter Xavier Nady, Lombardozzi and Harper in order.
Valdes got Zimmerman, LaRoche and Desmond in order in the ninth.
Third appearance of the year for Valdes. He has allowed one hit and no walks while striking out six over 4 2/3 scoreless innings. He threw 19 pitches in the game.
The Phillies lineup against lefty Gio Gonzalez went (1) Pierre (2) Polanco (3) Victorino (4) Pence (5) Ruiz (6) Mayberry (7) Galvis (8) Fontenot. Rollins out of the lineup after the birth of his first child. Galvis starts at short with Fontenot at second. Pierre plays left against the lefty. Polanco returns to the lineup. Wigginton needs to start against left-handed pitching and Pierre should not.
Pierre and Polanco struck out as the Phillies went in order in the bottom of the first.
The Phillies were down 1-0 when Pence walked to start the bottom of the second. Ruiz struck out for the first out before Pence took second on a wild pitch. Mayberry struck out for the second out and Galvis struck out for the third.
Fontenot and Kendrick both struck out for the first two outs in the third before the Phillies loaded the bases on singles by Pierre and Polanco and a walk to Victorino. Pence grounded to short to leave them loaded.
Ruiz was hit by a pitch to start the fourth with the Phillies down 2-0. Mayberry struck out again for the first out and Galvis grounded into a double-play to end the inning.
The Phillies went in order in the fifth.
Polanco walked to start the sixth and moved to third when Victorino followed with a double. Pence was next and hit the ball well to center, but Ankiel made a diving catch for the first out. Polanco was way off third and unable to get back to tag and score. Ruiz was next and hit a ball to first. This time Polanco did try and score, but LaRoche threw home and he was tagged out for the second out. Mayberry flew to right for the third out.
At least Mayberry didn't strike out this time. That's some miserable base-running by Polanco, who has to score on Pence's ball whether it is caught or not.
No runs for the Phils after putting runners on second and third with nobody out.
Righty Craig Stammen set the Phillies down in order in the seventh. Orr hit for Kendrick and struck out for the third out.
Polanco and Victorino singled back-to-back off of Stammen with one out in the eighth, putting runners on first and second for Pence. Pence popped to Zimmerman at third for the second out and Ruiz grounded to short for the third.
Righty Henry Rodriguez started the ninth for Washington with the Nats still leading by two runs. Mayberry led off and walked on four pitches. Galvis flew to right for the first out before Mayberry took second on a wild pitch. Fontenot was next and singled into center. Mayberry looked like he might have been able to score, but held third, putting men on first and third with one down. With the righty Rodriguez still pitching, Wigginton hit for Valdes. A second wild pitch by Rodriguez moved Fontenot up to second and lefty Sean Burnett took over on the mound. Burnett got Wigginton on a fly ball to right, deep enough for Mayberry to tag and score from third. That cut the lead to 2-1 with two outs and Fontenot on second for Pierre. Luna hit for Pierre against the lefty and walked on five pitches, putting men on first and second for Polanco. Polanco lined to second to end the game.
I think it was nutty for the Nats to bring in a lefty to pitch to Wigginton in the middle of his at-bat, even after two wild pitches, but it worked out well for them. Mayberry should have scored on Fontenot's single, but it didn't matter as he scored anyway.
Mayberry draws a walk to get things started. After walking once in his first 77 plate appearances for the year, he has now walked five times in his last 38 plate appearances. Over the first 77 plate appearances he hit .240 and on-based .247. Over his last 38 plate appearances he hit .242 and on-based .342, proving once and for all that walks are our friend.
Pierre was 1-for-4 with a single in the game. Doesn't belong in the lineup against a lefty, especially if the Phillies are going to play Mayberry at first and put Wigginton on the bench. Pierre is 1-for-his-last-12 and 5-for-his-last-26 (.192). 174/208/174 against lefties for the year.
Polanco was 2-for-4 with a walk and some ugly work on the bases. 351/383/468 over his last 83 plate appearances.
Victorino 2-for-3 with a walk and a double, which was the only extra-base hit of the game for the Phillies. 6-for-his-last-11 with two walks and two doubles. 296/380/444 in May.
Pence was 0-for-3 with a walk and left seven men on base. Should have had an RBI on the ball Ankiel caught in the sixth. He came into the game 10-for-his-last-24.
Ruiz 0-for-3 with a strikeout and five men left on base. He's 0-for-his-last-8.
Mayberry was 0-for-3 with a walk, two strikeouts and four men left on base. He's 0-for-his-last-7, but hitting 271/333/390 in May. That's not good, but considering he hit 204/204/245 in April, remember it could be a lot worse. He made a truly excellent defensive play for the second out in the sixth, robbing LaRoche of a hit.
Galvis 0-for-4 with three men left on base. He came into the game 10-for-his-last-28.
Fontenot 1-for-4 with a strikeout. He's 3-for-7 with three singles with the Phils so far.
Roy Halladay (4-3, 3.22) faces righty Jordan Zimmerman (2-4, 2.58) tonight. Halladay's ERA jumped from 1.95 to 3.40 when he allowed eight runs over 5 1/3 innings against the Braves on May 2. Since then he's made three starts, going 1-1 with a 2.86 ERA and an 0.95 ratio. After walking ten hitters in five starts in April he has walked two so far in four May starts. Zimmerman threw to a 1.33 ERA in his four starts in April, but has cooled a bit in May. He has a 3.91 ERA in his four May outings. He faced the Phils on May 6 and allowed three runs over six innings — that's the game where Hamels hit Harper.
The next update to Philliesflow will be around May 29.

If you're shopping for a compact SUV, the bevy of competitive options to choose from may overwhelm you. Since our last comparison test in 2012 new models from Jeep, Nissan and Toyota have gone on sale, and they're selling quite well.
Related: What's the Most Affordable Midsize Sedan for 2014
One other thing that has changed recently: Most models in this segment come with relatively well-equipped base levels, or with just a few options selected. That makes finding the most affordable versions easier, but it's not a simple task.
We've done the hard part and compiled the right trim levels that deliver expected features in this class and included the cost of gas over five years to determine the most affordable compact SUV amongst the ranks.

Nutrition isn't all about the calories.
"Oh, look at this. It's a healthy chocolate bar - only 90 calories!"
Um, not necessarily. Read the label.
"I had the unhealthiest lunch ever - I think there was about 400 calories in that grilled chicken and avocado wrap."
How healthy something is has little to do with its calorie count, and more to do with the nutritents you take from it.
People really need to learn to see the bigger picture.

Grab your coffee. The first appearance on national television for the Colorado men's basketball team this season will be a late one.
The Buffaloes have been tabbed to take part in ESPN's annual 24-hour tip-off marathon, an around-the-clock slate of 19 games broadcast across ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU.
Colorado, aiming for a fourth straight NCAA Tournament berth, will host Auburn on Nov. 17 at 11 p.m. It marks the first CU has been chosen to participate in the marathon event, and coach Tad Boyle believes it will do wonders for his program from an exposure standpoint.
"The 24-hour hoops event gets the college basketball season kicked off. Anytime you get a chance to be on the ESPN Network, it's nothing but good things for your program and it's an opportunity for us to showcase the atmosphere of the Coors Events Center," Boyle said in a statement. "A lot of people saw last year in the Kansas game, now we can show it in a different light.

HOLLAND—More jobs will be headed to West Michigan, thanks to a planned expansion at Gentex.
The Zeeland-based company will be using an existing facility that belonged to an electronics company on James Street, three miles from their headquarters.
The company will invest $4.5 million to buy and renovate the space to use the facility to build chip boards for the company's automatically dimming rear view mirrors. They hope to have the plant up and running by January and running at full capacity by March.
Once the facility is done, it will mean 240 new hires in all: 100 highly skilled engineering and software jobs and another 140 manufacturing jobs. Gentex officials say they've seen a quicker rebound than expected in the economy. Right now they supply 83 percent of all auto-dimming mirrors around the world.
"Three-quarters of our auto dimming mirror shipments go overseas," said Vice President Enoch Jen.
This is quite a turnaround for the chosen building. A year ago, the company that formerly occupied the space moved to Mexico, noted Bruce Los, Vice President of Human Resources. "And this year we have a team of people working extremely hard, many of them through the weekend, planning to start up here in January," he said.
For those wondering how to be a part of this extended workforce, there will be a job fair at the Doubletree Hotel in downtown Holland on December 8 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

After police in LaFayette, Ga., charged a volunteer firefighter in one of a string of arsons in the town over the last five years, the community enjoyed a lull in random fires.
But when an abandoned shed was burned May 4, LaFayette police Detective Sgt. Darin Kelley said his heart dropped.
Was it a copycat arsonist?
"It did run through our mind," Kelley said.
But once he began to investigate the charred building off East Indiana Street, Kelley decided it was an isolated fire that probably was lit out of spite.
"It's not related whatsoever with the other arsons," Kelley said.
Now police believe the fire was set by Joshua Wallin, who is fighting with his estranged wife for joint custody of their 3-year-old daughter. A warrant for Wallin's arrest was issued this week on charges of arson and terroristic threats.
Police said the sheriff's office is on the lookout for Wallin, who has been dodging arrest.
Wallin couldn't be reached by phone Friday.
His estranged wife and family live in an apartment next door to the burned shed.
Kelley said police believe the fire was set around midnight. Firefighters doused the flames before they reached the apartment, but the garage was only inches from the fire, he said.
Wallin's father-in-law, Andy Fricks, also lived at the apartment next door. He said when he saw the flames, he was afraid the fire would burn everything in the garage.
Kelley said that days after the fire, Wallin's estranged wife told police she got a threatening call from Wallin, who said, "Maybe you and your brother will be in there next time when it gets burnt down."
Wallin's wife has a restraining order against him, police said.
Kelley said police breathed a sigh of relief that another arsonist isn't on the loose in the town.
In December, local police and the state fire marshal said they believed Marvin Chase was a serial arsonist responsible for setting a slew of fires to vacant houses since 2005.
Chase has only been charged with one count of arson, but detective Sgt. Stacey Meeks said authorities will take evidence in several more cases to the grand jury's June meeting.

If you're spending time outside this summer, you need to protect your head. The Deal Wizard was too cheap to buy a big floppy hat on his beach trip. The resulting head burn was not pleasant.
Today's deal is a great one. You can easily pay $15 for one of these outdoor sunhats. The Shnoop one-day deal (6/27) gets you two hats for $13!
This is a Totes-Isotoner product and claims UPF 50 to protect you from the sun's harmful rays. We think most hats do that pretty well.
If you want this deal, get busy. It will be gone tomorrow.

The tracks themselves are based upon retro Sega games, and they also change; the Panzer Dragoon inspired track Dragon Canyon has a dragon that roams the MAP and destroys a bridge early on in the race. This therefore forces the players to continue racing around the track either via their planes or boats, and means that every track has endless possibilities and versatility when it comes to gameplay. Each track also has many possible routes to take, including a number of shortcuts to be found throughout, offering a great deal of re-playability for each course.

How do you define "openness"?
How do you define openness?
How do you define free as in freedom?
How do you define wiki?
And What are the conditions that a service should provide so that this service considered an open service?
Topics: Open Education Open data freedom open wiki
Closing Statement from AmirHossein Honardust
Thank you all for participating.
Your points of view are different but almost pointing to one big end: Humans need freedom.
Please feel free to read this conversation and contact me if you want make me happy by telling me more about your opinions.

May 24 2013: interesting questions. I would say: Openness would be anything that allows inflow and outflow - both in the physical world and the personal one. Free in freedom would be unobstructed self-determination. Wiki would be collaborative documentation. Open-service would have conditions of inflow and outflow between users and suppliers for ultimate task accomplishment.
May 24 2013: Hi there and thank you. I answered the questions very fundamentally. So, i would offer that 'conditions' would be arbitrary and would limit the inferred 'unlimited' parameters of 'openness' and 'free'. If there were 'conditions', then the object would only be partially opened and partially free.
