Chapter 30: The Fortune Tellers and the Harbinger
In the mists of the natural plane, Bright Eyes was meditating as the Sun Goddess fretted behind her.
"How could I have let this happen? The Metaspectre knew exactly what it was doing. It's been in control all along. I should never have allowed Twilight and her friends to enter the Land of the Lost. It's so much worse than I remembered. Is that because I chose to forget, or because of my neglect?"
Bright Eyes rolled her eyes and gave a sigh of exasperation. As calm as she tried to be, Celestia's understandable anxiety was taking its toll. "Princess, the choice is in the past. There's nothing more you can do about it."
"Yet I must reflect upon it. The wrong choices I've made haunt my every waking moment."
"They weren't wrong."
Celestia stopped her pacing, staring into Bright Eyes' back, begging for an answer. "Of course they were. They've made things worse than they were before."
Bright Eyes turned. "Celestia, you're missing the big picture. Every sentient being has the gift of choice. I speak of fore-ordination and predestination, but I seem to have confused you. You see, it's not that you are guaranteed to make a decision one way or the other when faced with any situation. Based on previous decisions, some choices will be far more likely than others, but you truly have a choice up until the moment that the choice becomes action, or the lack thereof. At that moment, whatever has been done was fate."
"I don't fully understand."
"It's a paradox. Allow me to take an extreme example. Twilight Sparkle has been wounded. You have the choice of healing her instantly, with no cost to you whatsoever, or to kill her."
"What kind of options are those?"
"Answer. Which would you choose?"
"To heal her, of course."
"You're given the decision again. What now?"
"Heal her."
"Once more."
"You're running me around in circles."
"Celestia, dispel the blinders you've put on yourself. Apply the lesson to each of the choices you made in your life. Think back to when you were forced to banish Luna."
"I'd rather not."
"Face the past. You're the one that likes dwelling on it. You are back in your former throne room, once the pinnacle of order, mercy, and justice. You have thousands of subjects who count on you to make the difficult decisions they couldn't. Your sister stands before you, threatening to kill. Not just you, but everything you and she once worked for. Peace. Love. The ability to choose. Tell me, do you allow her to live, knowing she'll slaughter countless innocents?"
"As much as it pains me, I cannot."
"You're given the decision again. What now?"
"I... I kill her. For the greater good."
"Once more."
"I have to let her die, and my self respect with her. Because I am bound to help those who cannot help themselves."
"Now do you understand? Each choice we make is indeed a choice. But they're also meant to happen. Such is the paradox of the universe; the illusion and truth of choice. You were meant to let Twilight and her friends into the depths of despair. They were meant to discover for themselves the true horrors that you fight against. Luna is meant to remember who she is, so she can be given the ability to choose, truly choose, without outside influence, which side she serves. Everything will turn out for the better, but change is never easy. Just carry on."
Celestia dropped her head. "Thank you oracle. Your words are comforting."
"I only speak the truth." Bright Eyes returned to her meditation, listening to the countless voices echoing through the time stream. Her ears flicked as one in particular caught her mind. She concentrated, ignoring the other cries for her attention.
"Hawkeye?" she said with surprise. She stood, murmuring arcane phrases as her eyes began glowing. Celestia stepped over.
"Who's Hawkeye?"
"My... reflection, I suppose you could call her. From the Land of the Lost. The oracle is somewhat of a special case. I am a neutral force, yet the universe saw fit to provide me with additional windows to either world. My light reflection in Reality is known as Derpy Hooves the Courier Mare, and my dark reflection in the Forgotten Realm is known as Hawkeye the All-Sight. Somewhat of a joke, because she lost her left eye permanently at an early age in her life, but the name's fitting, more than the mortals realize."
With a burst of light, the mist around the singularity Bright Eyes had just created dispersed with a hiss, Hawkeye blinked, taking in her surroundings in a reserved manner. Upon seeing Bright Eyes, she snapped to attention. "Oracle, I'm afraid I have bad news."
"Beyond being dead?"
"It's the cause of death."
Celestia watched carefully, not sure how to react in this change of events. This was the first time she'd seen a dark reflection in the flesh since the split of the worlds. Hawkeye continued. "I've been watching Twilight and her friends as instructed, ensuring no true harm came to them. But my future sight has failed me. We've taken an alternate timeline."
Bright Eyes rose a brow. "How so?"
Hawkeye turned to the viewing port Celestia and the Oracle had been using to watch the Elements' progress. "The images you're receiving are false. Twilight was supposed to see the picture of her friends she put in the saddlebag and summon the strength within to overpower her reflection, as you've seen. Instead, she drew on the power of a crystal she stole from the Metaspectre's altar. I don't know how it's escaped our attention."
Bright Eyes walked over to the projected images, where Twilight and her friends were leading a small band of wounded griffons, the escaped prisoners, against a countless army. The Elements lit up and the group ripped through their opposition with righteous indignation. But according to Hawkeye, whom she trusted completely –which was only logical seeing as they could read each other's conscious thoughts– this was wrong. "What happened?"
"Twilight released a portion of the energy of the crystal, decimating Moon Pool and its populace, barely managing to protect her group. The entirety of the griffon army has been culled, and nothing remains of the city. I haven't yet locked onto the new timeline, and I won't be able to until I rebirth. They're walking blind in there."
Celestia interrupted. "We no longer have a guarantee of their safety?"
Hawkeye turned to address the worried Princess. "No Princess, none whatsoever. Somebody intervened and I think we all know who."
"Well, it was a group effort."
The trio whipped around, Celestia gasping in shock as she saw a foe she had thought defeated, twice, standing before her once again. "Discord!"
"Celestia! Celestia Celestia Celestia! It's terribly repetitive to start a conversation with my name every time you see me."
Celestia closed her eyes, breathing to calm herself. She recognized that getting worked up would help no one. "Alright then, what are you here for?"
"Eh, for fun mostly, to be completely honest. It's a wonderful plan Thael has cooked up, but it takes so long to execute. I suppose it's why he's in charge and I'm just a team player. I simply don't have the patience."
Hawkeye stepped forward. "Excuse me everyone, I see a need for Derpy quite soon, so I'll be right back." Her single eye lit up, familiar arcane whisperings directing the magic flow around her. She disappeared with a flash.
Discord continued without skipping a beat. "I'm her because I really just like watching you squirm, Celestia. No! Not like that, sheesh."
"Shut up."
"Not a laugh? Ever? Celestia, when are you going to learn that's all I want from you?"
"When are you going to learn some funny jokes?"
"Ooh! Right to the heart!" Discord grabbed his chest melodramatically, "Alright, fine. You tell me what kind of joke you like, and I'll tell you what will happen next to Twilight and her little friends."
Celestia sighed. It wasn't like she had much other choice. "I like jokes that remind of the good times that have passed, without a laugh at another's expense. No laugh is worth causing another pain."
Discord tapped his chin thoughtfully. "Well, I suppose that's the problem, isn't it? I simply don't have any material to work with there. I never really had good times in the past. My life has been pretty terrible, I'll have you know. I laugh because it's the only thing that keeps me going.
He slid over to Celestia's side, wrapping an arm around her neck. It took all of Celestia's willpower to not throw him off. "Well, you kept your side of the bargain Celestia. I'll tell you what's happening right now. Twilight's friends are waking up, recovering from the blast that made your student a killer. Their eyes are wide with shock at the devastation around them. They're going to have to pick themselves up and carry on. After all, it's only a matter of time before the two armies reappear, and neither side will be too understanding of the little accident. They'll walk blindly, the map they stole only providing more questions for them. Where do they go? Where has Luna disappeared to? What is the safest route?"
He snorted, trying to hold back a laugh as he continued. "The joke, of course, is there is no safe route. The map doesn't tell them the natural horrors that await them. It does not tell them the monsters and assassins that wait around every corner. Nor does it tell them of the increasing pressures upon civilization. Twilight just destroyed the only food source for the entire city's population. All semblance of control will disappear. The fighting will become desperate. The Famine, so much worse. And eventually everything will collapse. It will be each pony against the world. The effect will be felt in more than just that city, of course. It will spread over the land like a plague. Anarchy. Rioting. Disillusionment, and most importantly...
"Chaos," he whispered. He grinned darkly, while Celestia looked resolutely forward. "And the best part?" he continued. "All of what I said is conjecture. But it will happen. After all, chaos theory is the only catch-all explanation. The theory that any order will always, without fail, lead to chaos. Because no matter how righteous the intent of any system, someone will disagree."
He took a few steps away, placing his arms behind his back as he fondly regarded the shifting mist around them. "Change is the only true beauty in this world."
"When did you change?"
Discord started, looking back to Celestia. "I beg your pardon?"
"You once supported everything I stand for. You were loved by thousands, and you brought a unique light to the world that even I admired. Why did you throw it all away?"
Discord drew up his lip in a sneer. "Because I realized the cost of Order." He grimaced darkly, something obviously weighing on his mind. "Do you truly want to hear my tale, Celestia? From my viewpoint? It might make you feel sorry for me. And we wouldn't want that."
"I'll try my best to continue hating you."
Discord rose a brow. "Was that a joke? That was a joke, wasn't it?"
A bright flash sparked between the two ancients, the two copies of the recently silent blond pegasus jumping into being. Hawkeye nodded to Bright Eyes. "I managed to retrieve Derpy."
The wall-eyed pony looked around the group, grinning happily. "Hiya! How is everyone today?"
Bright Eyes stepped forward. "Greetings, Ditzy. You haven't been responding to my mental calls lately."
"It's not my fault! The Doctor says there's something wrong with the barriers between the worlds! He told me to tell you to adjust the psi-on-ic fre-quen-cy ten degrees lower."
"Is that where he's been off to?"
"Yeah, he's trying to figure out what it all means right now, conducting experiments and whatnot. You know how he is, coming and going whenever he pleases. Um, is that all?"
"No, Ditzy, I'm afraid we have matters of greater importance than dropped calls. We need to use your Past Sight to review Discord's history." Bright Eyes bowed towards the Draconequus. "With your permission, of course. I'm simply anticipating your answer. Thankfully, Hawkeye's a bit better about updating me with her Future Sight."
"Oh certainly, go right ahead."
"Do I have to? His story's sad. Can't we pick a happier one? Like the heroic tale of Copper Band the adventurer?"
"I'm sorry, but it has to be Discord's story."
"While you're watching my bitter history, Celestia, I better return before Thael realizes I'm missing. And Celestia, don't think this means I'm suddenly friendly or anything."
"Of course not, Discord."
"After all, we all need enemies. We are empty if we don't have them. That's why some find them... and others make them."
Discord raised his griffon claw in the air, his body beginning to glow as it was pulled out of the dimension. "Oh, and I forgot to tell you one last thing. You remember the Beholders, don't you? One of the ancient races of Equestria?"
"Yes, they all died out in the Chaos War you started."
"Well, it turns out they didn't actually die. They were just... forgotten."
With yet another flash of light, the Lord of Chaos was gone, only an echoing chuckle and a dark worry indicating he had ever been there at all.

Photo by John Thawley CUMMING, Ga-After a month of steady work at their north Georgia workshop, the Tafel Racing team is anxious to go racing again in round four of the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series presented by Crown Royal Special Reserve at the beautiful Virginia International Raceway, in Alton, Va.
German Wolf Henzler, who will drive the # 74 Rembrandt Charms Porsche GT3 Cup, has good memories of VIR from the 2006 season.
"I qualified on the pole in the rain last year at VIR, so it is a track I really like. The many chicanes make it challenging to find the right setup, but I feel confident. We ran well there last year and I am hoping to find our first podium finish of the season."
Co-driving the #74 will be Eric Lux of Buffalo, NY. "I am looking forward to racing at VIR; it is one of my favorite race circuits and I believe Wolf and I will have an opportunity to be very fast. Hopefully, we will be able to be as fast as the Mazda."
Behind the wheel of the #72 North-South Machinery.com Porsche will be Andrew Davis of Bogart, Ga. and Californian Nathan Swarzbaugh.
Davis is looking forward to the challenges of the 3.27-mile circuit. "VIR is one of the best circuits on the Rolex schedule. It is very smooth and has a great combination of technical corners and high speed straights. The uphill esses are made up of some of the most exciting corners in North America."
Swartzbaugh has never raced at VIR, but is relying on technology to get up to speed quickly.
"It has become a sort of trend for me to have to learn a lot of these courses for the first time in a few practice sessions," said Swartzbaugh. "All I can say is thank you You Tube. I can usually find some footage of the courses on the internet so I am at least familiar with the shape of the track."
Tafel Racing has seen their finishes improve consistently during the season, barely missing a podium in the last few laps at Homestead. "Tony Dowe (Technical Director), along with the rest of the Tafel Racing team, has worked tirelessly to continue improving these cars," said Davis. "We have seen marked improvement over last season at each track we have visited thus far. The car is very quick in qualifying trim, and we continue to make the car better for the long stints."

Pretty awesome stuff, gonna def start working on an app.
@Palamon Might be a bit of a wait, sorry. Still working on my sheet. But I'm almost done :)
@Palamon I may have humans among my people, but the Republic does have a very large alien population if you're interested.
Apologies for the lack of a reply. Work's been busier than usual, so I've been putting in a few extra hours than I normally would and I've just been really tired at the end of the day. I'll try to get a reply to you by tomorrow.
Also, since I just read your post, do you think our two human factions would speak similar languages? Or at least one understandable by each other? In all honesty, they probably wouldn't, but I figured it'd be easier if we could skip past the whole 'lost in translation' bit and move a bit more quickly into actual diplomacy, unless that was something you'd rather do.

Why Activity Betting Specifically On Soccer Is A Enthusiasm For Numerous IndividualsIf you are looking for a sports betting technique software plan and ended up right here, I take it that you haven't bought one just however. This could be a lucky thing for you, simply because here I will inform you that what to look for when purchasing a sports betting system.
McNabb experienced his chance with the Eagles and even though he gained a great deal of normal season competitions, the Eagles did not win a Super Bowl with him and they unsuccessful numerous occasions in the NFC Championship. Philadelphia might not be getting enough respect this yr from oddsmakers in football betting. Not only this year but in the long operate, Kolb could finish up being a great deal much better than McNabb.
. Figures. What number of times did the group win within just the prior handful of a long time? What was their highest intention? Who would be the main gamers? The quantity of objectives did each single important participant accomplished?
If you wish to be a winner, your only concentrate ought to be on defining the betable edges in your selected activity, or sports. There are not that numerous of them, but they are there to be discovered for certain. Finding one edge is only a begin. You will need many if you want to make any cash m88.com.
To get ahead of the system, you need a good strategy. You bet is an expense and you have to location it exactly where it can very best grow. In a sports activities betting system, the odds are laid out for you. It's ready to take your bets and leaves you with small to believe about.

. The competitors. You are performing not only desire to learn what your favorite teams' stats are. If read more that might be crucial, the competitor's stats can also be significant. Who wouldn't aspire to know something about their opponents? Homework the opponent's stat way too. Know the players, the mentor alongside with other related elements.
Betting can be enjoyable, but you require to know when to quit particularly when you shed as well a lot. Occasionally it is very best to just appreciate the game without thinking of your bets.

- Capable Performance
- Good Display
- Easy to use interface
- Dual Cameras
- Camera Performance could be better
- Slightly bulkier than other devices
ASUS is no stranger to the smartphone and technology space. The company released the very capable Zenfone 4 Selfie Pro following the amazing performer, the ASUS Zenfone 3. The Zenfone 4 Max Pro is a follow up to the first Zenfone Max which released 2 years back with amazing battery life. That doesn't change in this iteration of the Zenfone. The Zenfone 4 Max Pro is arguably one of the longest lasting devices on the market so far. The longevity of the battery comes at a trade though. As the saying goes, nothing is for free. But, the question still remains: is it worth the trade?
Let's be really frank; the Zenfone 4 Max Pro isn't going to be winning any design awards. However, the simplistic design of the device belies its performance and battery life. The Zenfone 4 Max Pro comes in your typical unibody design. That said, ASUS did opt to adopt the anodised aluminum body. This choice makes the smartphone feel premium in hand and also gives it a sense of durability that many other devices in the price range seem to lack. The design choice to curve the sides makes the large phablet more palmable compared to its competitors.
The face of the device isn't really that different from what we've seen in the past. The Max Pro's comes with a 5.5-inch, 720p display. It's also studded with the front facing, 16-meagpixel sensor and also the ambient light sensor. In addition, the face of the device is also puts the fingerprint sensor front and center flanked by capacitive back and multitasking buttons. The fingerprint sensor itself doubles as a home button which is both responsive and quick in touch response and fingerprint recognition.
The volume buttons and the power buttons are where you'd expect them to be on any android device: on the right side of the device. The hybrid SIM and microSD card slot is etched in the left side. On the bottom is the single speaker, microUSB type-B connector and the microphone. The back is brandished with the large ASUS logo and the dual 16-Megapixel and 5-Megapixel sensors which we'll delve into in the camera section of the review.

User Interface
The Zenfone 4 Max Pro comes out of the box with Android 7.0 Nougat. Of course, ASUS has its ZenUI 3.0 running on top of it. The ZenUI which sits atop Android has been on quite the diet since its first iterations. ASUS should be proud in making its ZenUI more feature packed but less RAM hungry. The Taiwanese manufacturer has included some thoughtful features including the ability to lock apps, cusotmise the UI with custom fonts and more in the new update to ZenUI. While other manufacturers choose to go the route of making their interface more iOS-like, ASUS has chosen to let Android shine through in their ZenUI.
The mainstay of ZenUI is the extent to which customisation is integrated into the experience. The first thing you'll notice about the UI is the ability to theme and customise your icons, widgets, fonts and interface with a simple long press of the home screen. The ZenUI customisations start from the simple selection of fonts and font size to fully customising your experience.One of the unique features of ZenUI 3.0 is the ability to change the size of your icons. It's not going to change the size of the grids of your interface just the icons meaning that you'll have the same amount of icons on the screen just larger.
In addition, ZenUI also includes a theming engine. The native integration of this feature since its early iterations has ensured that the selection is extensive.You'll definitely be able to find a theme that fits your fancies and mood WITHOUT the need to pay for it. If you're interested in expressing yourself in your own unique way, you'll be able to put together your own theme by downloading icon packs, custom fonts and wallpapers. With these customisation add-ons also comes the customisability of Android. Simple item such as simple widgets to changing your ringtones come within the Android framework.
Unlike some of its competition, ASUS's ZenUI 3.0 doesn't hold back any of its features when it comes to the Max Pro. The interface brings all the bells and whistles which come with the flagship Zenfone 4. This approach to the software is both refreshing and also the reason why the Max Pro is able to stand out from the crowd. With its simple to use and highly customisable interface, we have a device which isn't yours simply cause you bought it, it's yours cause you "designed" it. In addition, the fact that your having the same "flagship" experience even at a low price point makes the device even more compelling that a lot of the competition out there.
That said, the ASUS Zenfone 4 Max Pro's ZenUI 3.0's possible flaw comes in the way the icons and overall layout is designed. The overall aesthetic is very cartoon-y and gives a very unrefined, rough at the edges feel. While aesthetics isn't everything, it's hard to not feel like ASUS is being left behind in the lurches as its competition moves ahead. A little more thought into refining the overall aesthetic of the interface would have gone a long way to making the overall user experience and first impressions be more premium. That said, the UI itself with its customisability and personalisation features more than make up for it.
Benchmarks allow us to get a feel of what the device should be capable of with both the hardware and software available on the device. However, given that they don't really guarantee the everyday performance of the device, we won't go into much detail here. But, for those of us who like to see the raw power behind the ASUS Zenfone 4 Max Pro, here's a glimpse at the performance.
The overall performance of the Zenfone 4 Max Pro is commendable especially at the price of RM1099 (USD$260.22). The Snapdragon 430 powering the device promises mid-range performance with the usual price tag which comes along with it. However, as is the case for any device, its performance is better indicated by the experience that we had over the week of review.
Call Quality & Connectivity
The Zenfone 4 Max Pro comes with all the essentials when it comes to mobile devices nowadays: 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, Bluetooth 4.1, WiFi 802.11b/g/n (2.4GHz), GPS, AGPS, Glonass and BDS. That said, what's important here is how the device performed on these connections.
The Max Pro has one of the better speakers when it comes to call quality in its range. The speaker sounded warm and lacked the tinny sound that is typical of a device skating the RM1000 line. People on the other end sounded really natural during conversations and the connectivity on the network was also far more stable than its competition. In addition, there wasn't much heating up over long periods of talking either.
The noise cancelling microphone in the Zenfone 4 Max Pro does its work commendably. During my time using the device, there was little to no complaint from people on the other end about being inaudible. While there may have been a few times when audibility became an issue, it didn't occur too often.
The WiFi and network connectivity of the device is good. The Zenfone Max Pro was able to get WiFi connectivity in areas where its competition was unable to. It even bested some of the previous flagships available on the market. When connected to WiFi there wasn't any issue with the stability of the network. The Max Pro seemed to be able to hold its own when it came to smart switching between mobile data and WiFi. The Zenfone 4 Max Pro handled this better than any of the other devices in its price range. It provided a better, more stable overall experience compared to other device.
The Adreno 505 in the Zenfone Max Pro is definitely one that can handle quite a little bit of strain when it comes to graphics department. It could handle the gamut of games: from the simple, less graphics intensive ones to the super graphic intensives ones. Perhaps one of the more impressive feats of the 505 is the fact that the Max Pro stayed cool to touch over prolonged periods of time, only heating up after about 45 minutes to an hour of game play.
Over the review, I played games such as Blizzard's Hearthstone, Need for Speed and NOVA on the Zenfone 4 Max Pro. Overall, the Max Pro was able to handle the games really well but it did begin to show its limits in more graphically intensive games.
In simple games such as Hearthstone and Pokémon Duel, the Zenfone 4 Max Pro had no issue rendering the base graphics such as card and token design. The same rang true when it came to rendering attack effects and animations. The Max Pro also remained cool to touch throughout my game play times which could last up to an hour.
The limits of the Max Pro's Adreno 505 was more apparent when playing more graphically intensive games such as Need for Speed, Asphalt and NOVA. While graphical tearing was minimal, the overall performance of the games seem to push the limits of the Zenfone 4 Max Pro. Frame drops and stuttering would occur in situations where there was a lot to render on screen. Slower frame rates were also noticeable. That said, there wasn't any point where the games became unplayable due to the issues. Of course, the Zenfone 4 Max Pro also heated up a lot faster under the graphical strain.
The multitasking on the Zenfone 4 Max Pro has improved immensely thanks in part due to the baked in features of Android. However, ASUS's ZenUI 3.0 has also helped in this department.
The main new multitasking feature that stood out was the inclusion of split screen multitasking. This made it possible for me to refer to resources while writing as well as watch YouTube while going through Facebook. However, while multitasking this way is useful, my most used feature was the double tapping of the multitasking button to quickly jump between recent apps.
While multitasking software features are important, there aren't many built into the Zenfone 4 Max Pro. However, the 3GB of RAM which it comes with definitely does allow it to multitask a lot smoother. It also doesn't slow down when there are a number of apps running in the background.
Battery Life
Battery life is where the Zenfone 4 Max Pro shines the most. This device was a pain to kill in the battery department; which is a good thing. Over my week of reviewing the device, I only had to charge it about 4 times. This was with my syncing of emails, WhatsApp messages, making and taking calls and gaming. I got an average of about 1.5 days of usage on a single charge.
However, not being content with normal use, I decided to push the device as hard as I could over the course of a hectic day. I used the Max Pro for streaming Spotify over Bluetooth and GPS navigation in the car. I also used it to tether my data to my laptop and used it as my main camera. All of this was in addition to the regular usage I mentioned earlier. The results? The device only had 98% battery when I started my day at 8am; it still had 6% when I got back at 1.30a.m. That's a whopping 18 hour day! I haven't been able to get battery life like this from any device (even the Max Pro's predecessor the ASUS Zenfone Max).
The Zenfone 4 Max Pro isn't shy about this though. As I mentioned earlier, the slightly heftier design is undoubtedly due to the larger battery capacity. But then again, who wouldn't be proud of lasting for more than 18 hours!
The display on the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro is a 5.5-inch HD 720p IPS display with a resolution of 720×1280 pixels. While it's not the best display on the market. It gets things done; which is essential for the price range it sits in. The 720p display provides enough pixels on the device to multitask and also to enjoy your Netflix, YouTube or iflix on the go. The lower resolution of the display is also one of the factors for the longevity of the battery. The lower pixel count means that the battery can be put to better use powering the processors. That said, it is confusing why ASUS didn't opt to go with a slightly better 1080p display.
The quality of the IPS panel is good though. The colours are reproduced are pretty accurate. The only complaint I have is that the colours are a little heavy on blues. This makes the colours seem brighter but is also more strenuous on the eyes. The cooler colour tones also means that your red and yellows may not be as accurate. The included blue light filter helps with the eye strain but you'll need a separate app if you intend to tune the display to be more colour accurate.
ASUS went all with the dual camera modules this year in the Zenfone 4 lineup. Nearly every iteration of the Zenfone 4 series has a dual camera be it in the front or the back or both.
Main Camera
The Zenfone 4 Max Pro is no different. It's camera configuration is a 16-megapixel Omnivision sensor with a 1.12µm pixel size and f/2.0 aperture. This is paired with a secondary 5-megapixel Omnivision sensor with 1.12µm pixel size and an f/2.2 aperture. The main difference between the two modules is the wider 120° field of view in the latter compare to the 80° field of view in the main 16-megapixel sensor.
The larger field of view allows for more to be captured on photo. In essence, think of it as giving you a larger canvas which allows more of what your shooting to be captured. The ability to go between the wide angle and normal viewing angles allows you to have more control of what you want to capture in your picture. However, this sensor configuration will not be able to capture those portrait pictures that are all the rage right now. The lack of a telephoto lens means that the smartphone is unable to collect the depth data needed for the portrait photos.
So how did the dual camera setup perform? To me, I would say the camera is mediocre at best. While the sensor allows up to 16-megapixels of resolution, it seems like the pictures taken are of mediocre quality when it comes to detail. Unless you're in phenomenal lighting conditions, pictures are grainy and seem to be of a lower resolution. Zoom into the detail of the pictures reveals a very noise-ridden collection of pixels. That said, the issues with the camera quality may possibly be resolved with a software update as the noise seems to be due to post processing and not the sensor itself.
Flash photography on the Max Pro can be harsh. Its single LED flash floods the picture with a very harsh light which can be a little disorienting for subjects. However, given the right distance from the flash, the results can be quite promising.
Selfie/Front Facing Camera
The front camera of the smartphone is the same 16-megapixel omnivision sensor found on the back of the smartphone. However, unlike the previous Zenfone Max, the Max Pro comes with a "Softlight". This is essentially a front facing LED flash. While it is a welcomed addition especially when you want to capture that selfie in the dark, the "softlight" can be really harsh and blinding.
The photos are again victim to the post processing that the software does. Aside from faces, the detail in the shots is fuzzy and noisy. It seems like the software is feathering nearby pixels to give a more artificial sharpening of the subject of the photo. This is leading to a loss of detail in the overall photo which causes backgrounds to become dull and uninspiring.
On both fronts, the lowlight performance leaves a lot to be desired. That said, overall, while I love the wide angle setup that the Max Pro has, the loss of detail and noise in the picture leave me wanting to see more on the camera front. But keeping in mind the price point it skates, it's still out performing a lot of other cameras out there.
Final Thoughts
The ASUS Zenfone 4 Max Pro is a go to device for those who are looking for a device with amazing battery endurance and also a smartphone you can call your own. It excel in the ability to personalise and customise thanks to ZenUI 3.0. It's main feature is undoubtedly the large 5,000 mAh battery which ensures that it outlasts nearly all of its competition. But it struggles when it comes to its camera, whether the struggle is due to software or possibly a image processing bottleneck, it will leave photo enthusiasts wanting more. That said, the price point of the Zenfone 4 Max Pro makes it a definite contender for a bang for buck device. It's an all round performer with a few qwerks which can easily be fixed with a software update.

OSI Group in an open response, received Baho Foods, the largest food producer in the Netherlands. None of the organizations has resulted in the terms of the merger which still requires the approval of the administrative commissions of the European Union.
By the absorption of Baho foods, OSI Industries is buying into activities in Europe which provides a greater spatial proximity in Europe to complete the organization of product and brands of the current quality of European OSI operations. Baho Foods confirms that this workforce would in fact remain until further notice as the companies conclude they will create a substantial project management. Knowledge of the merger through the European market leaders, explains how OSI has exclusive partnerships with customers and suppliers of the OSI group, which it uses very well, the experience and skills lended to the OSI Group.
While continuing the journey to significantly pioneer in the food industry, the OSI Group received a food preparation property with Tyson Foods office in Illinois. Tyson Foods or OSI Group disclose terms of purchase. Though the office, near The Southside of Chicago, is closed for the manufacture of herbal products by the OSI Group, It additionally increases its ability to meet demand for the expansive company.
Tyson Foods said the office was small compared to its other processing equipment and could not adjust the basic changes and extensions. So beginning last year, Tyson Foods asked OSI Group to enable their capacity to expand demand and was well received. Vice president of Tyson Foods is satisfied with the results of the merger nonetheless, and I quote,"We strive to make this office a sign of a wider OSI manufacturing system." The representatives of the OSI group showed that the former employees of Tyson Foods factory offered much progress to the brand, as they look forward to a successful venture as well.

Simple healthy meal.
Pizza vs Fish
So, I consider myself a healthy eater, eating as much fish and veg as possible, and that's due to the fact I do a lot of training, keeping fit, that sort of carry on, also while working long hours in a kitchen. So always busy, yet, I still make sure I eat properly, so I have plenty of energy which helps maintain a strong mind and keeps a smile on my face.
Now, I know there is a lot of people in the same boat, constantly busy, and when you get home from work, the last thing you want to do, is cook right. So you do the usual, stick the pizza in the oven, or the microwave dinner shoved into, well, the microwave. Stuff your face, then crash on the couch, falsely satisfied.
The point I'm trying to make is, In the time you heat the oven, take out the pizza etc. and place in the oven, you could easily have cooked a piece of fish, and veg(frozen even as good as fresh), and by the time the pizza is ready, you would already have finished a nutritious meal, and crashed on the couch, satisfied. Like, It's so easy to do, so much better for you, I can never understand when people say "just don't have the time mate." Well to me that's bull, the hard part is buying the produce, and if you want to feel better, look better, eating healthy is the man, and I'm going to cook my dinner now, and show you how easy and quick it is to do.
Simple Ingredients
- Piece of fish, any ( salmon, mackerel, trout, hake, cod etc.) Here we are using sole.
- Fresh veg, or frozen. I love fresh broccoli, cant get enough.
- Baby potatoes, or brown rice, your choice.
- Lemon wedge
- Salt, pepper and olive oil
15 minute healthy meal
Perfect Fitness
Ok, now let's say, your just in the door, your hungry, and your new years resolutions promises are slapping your brain eagerly with reminders of the promise you made to eat healthier. So your going to do it, but want it pretty quick, follow these steps as I'm doing the same at the moment.
Step 1. Take of you jacket, go straight to the kitchen avoiding the couch, take out a pot, fill with water, little salt, stick on the stove and heat. Now you're going to use that for either, Baby potatoes ( as I am now) rice or Fresh/ Frozen Veg. What ever you feel like. Then, preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
Step 2. Using a pan, rub a little butter on to it, you can use any type of healthy oil if you like. Lay you piece of fish on to it, in my case today, I have 3 pieces of sole I defrosted(bought a load of it last week, was so cheap) but I normally eat salmon, and I also leave the skin on, no problem, when the fish is cooked you can scrape of and leave to the side or eat it like I do. Squeeze a little lemon or lime over the fish, and a wedge on it too. Now maybe have a quick shower while your potatoes or rice is cooking.
Step 3. Place the pan in the oven, cook the fish, 9 to 10 minutes depending on size, check your veg or rice to time them together. Now to save time(and clean up) I've just added my veg in with my potatoes, which took approximately 10 minutes to cook . Veg takes no more than 3 minutes.
Step 4. Strain the veg, mash your potatoes if you like, add a little salt, take out cooked fish, place everything on the plate, squeeze a little citrus over the fish and veg, and there you go, eat away and enjoy.

On a night full of surprise winners, the VMA for Video of the Year went to the video we expected: Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball."
To see the complete list of winners, click here.
Elsewhere, Katy Perry surprised by winning Best Female Video for "Dark Horse" against Beyonce ("Partition") and Iggy Azalea ("Fancy"). Perry had never won the category before, despite five previous nominations.
"Fancy" didn't win Best Pop Video either, but Azalea still won a trophy in that category, since she was featured on Ariana Grande's winning "Problem."
Ed Sheeran pulled off an upset as well, taking Best Male Video for "Sing." Pharrell Williams was expected to win for "Happy," but it's just as well for Pharrell, who won as a featured artist on "Sing."
Drake won Best Hip-Hop Video for "Hold On, We're Going Home." It was his second victory in that race, which stopped rival nominee Eminem from setting a new record for most wins in the category.
Lorde prevailed in a close contest for Best Rock Video for "Royals," beating frequent nominees Imagine Dragons and frequent winners Linkin Park.
Before the telecast, boy band 5 Seconds of Summer's "Don't Stop" was announced as the winner of Best Lyric Video, which was decided by users on Twitter.
But 5 Seconds were upset in the Artist to Watch category by girl group Fifth Harmony for "Miss Movin On."
Apart from the Video Vangaurd Award at the end of the night, Beyonce didn't win any Moonmen during the telecast, but she won three other categories that weren't presented live: Best Message Video and Best Cinematography ("Pretty Hurts"), and Best Collaboration ("Drunk in Love" with Jay-Z).
Eminem's only win was for Best Editing for "Rap God," while other professional awards went to Sia's "Chandelier" (Choreography) OK Go's "The Writing's on the Wall" (Visual Effects), Arcade Fire's "Reflektor" (Art Direction), and DJ Snake's "Turn Down for What" (Direction).

SBR takes a look at the most compelling series every week in Major League Baseball. How will these critical series impact the standings and can we find an opportunity to cash in our MLB picks?
Royals (28-15) vs. Yankees (22-12) - May 25th-27th
The Kansas City Royals are proving that last year was no fluke when they claimed the American League Pennant and came within a Game 7 of winning the World Series. Perennial cellar dwellers, Kansas City is now MLB royalty as they own the best record in the bigs and are traveling to the Big Apple for a three-game set with the enigmatic New York Yankees.
The Bombers broke out of the gate with a 21-12 record but since that 11-5 victory over the Rays on May 11th hard times have hit New York and they are now mired in their worst losing streak in 20 years dropping 10 of their last 11 games while hitting a meager .214 exacerbated by a 6.84 ERA over their last six contests, all losses. Perhaps some of their May meltdown has to do with Jacoby Ellsbury being sidelined with a knee injury prompting Brett Gardner to assume his role at the leadoff spot. But Gardner has struggled at the top of the order and the Yankees woes are now further compounded by catcher Brian McCann's exit from Sunday's 5-2 loss to Texas in which a cramped foot forced his departure.
Betting Trends To Consider
Games Over the Last 3 Seasons
- NY YANKEES are 9-8 (+0.8 Units) against KANSAS CITY
- 10 of 17 games in this series have gone UNDER THE TOTAL (Under is +1.9 Units)
Games This Season
- KANSAS CITY is 2-1 (+0.8 Units) against NY YANKEES this season
- 2 of 3 games in this series have gone UNDER THE TOTAL this season . (Under is +0.8 Units)
All Games at NY YANKEES Over the Last 3 Seasons
- KANSAS CITY is 4-3 (+1.8 Units) against NY YANKEES
Boston Red Sox (21-23) vs. Twins (25-18) - May 25th-27th
The Boston Red Sox plunged into free agency with reckless abandon and came out with offensive plums like Hanley Ramirez and Pablo Sandoval. The addition of top prospect Mookie Betts and a healthy Dustin Pedroia signaled what was supposed to be a modern day Murderer's Row. However the fireworks that were supposed to be routinely on display have not manifested and the Boys from Boston may actually consider themselves lucky that they are only 2 ½ games out of first place with an offense that hasn't heated and starting pitching that has been abysmal for most of the season.
These are not your father's Minnesota Twins as they have taken a cue from another downtrodden franchise in the Kansas City Royals and decided that they too can make some noise as an American League power. Currently trailing only the aforementioned Royals by three games the Twins are actually ranked in the bottom third of all major pitching categories yet offensively they rank 8th in runs scored with 197 on the season. Those pitching statistics may be an ominous foreshadowing of things to come.
Betting Trends To Consider
Red Sox pitching has begun to right itself since the addition of new pitching coach Carl Willis as nine of their last 11 games have gone under the MLB odds posted total. Consider for a moment that aside from a 12-5 blowout loss to the Angels, the Red Sox have allowed only 2.2 runs per game over their last 10.
Games over the Last 3 Seasons
- BOSTON is 8-5 (+0.4 Units) against MINNESOTA
- 8 of 13 games in this series have gone UNDER THE TOTAL (Under is +2.3 Units)
Games This Season
- There were no past matchups in this series during this time period.
All Games at MINNESOTA Over the Last 3 Seasons
- BOSTON is 4-2 (+1.4 Units) against MINNESOTA over the last 3 seasons
- 3 of 6 games in this series have gone UNDER THE TOTAL over the last 3 seasons . (UNDER is -0.4 Units)
Nationals (26-18) vs. Cubs (24-19) - May 25th-27th
The Washington Nationals had issues at the beginning of the season but no one truly believed that their 7-13 start was demonstrative of the season ahead. All they have done since that point is go 19-5 resulting in their top spot in the NL East. Washington has won seven of their last eight as they pack up and head into the Windy City to take on the upstart Chicago Cubs.
In a starting rotation that is among the very best in the majors, Tanner Roark takes the bump in the opener on Monday replacing Doug Fister who is sidelined with a flexor muscle pull in his forearm. To put into perspective just how lush and deep this rotation is consider that Roark won 15 games and boasted a 2.85 ERA to complement a 1.09 WHIP in 31 starts last season. Despite that, Roark still could not crack the starting rotation until Fister's injury.
Though the Nationals' pitching is their ace in the hole it would be remiss not to mention the white hot hitting of 22-year-old Bryce Harper. Harper has been unconscious this month slamming 11 round-trippers, 26 RBI's and batting a torrid .491 since May 6th.
The Cubs return home to Wrigley after a six-game road swing winning two of three in San Diego but then dropping two of three in the desert against the D-Backs. The Cubbies have yet to face the Beast of the East yet this season but have gone 3-5 when hosting the Nats in Chi-Town over the past three seasons while the MLB odds total in those games has gone high in six of those eight contests reaping a +4.1 unit return for those who have blindly bet the over with their MLB picks at sportsbooks like BetOnline.
Betting Trends To Consider
- The Nats have won four of the last five games played between these two clubs regardless of venue
- Washington is 4-1 SU in its last five games on the road
- The total has gone OVER in six of Washington's last seven road games
- The total has gone OVER in five of the Cubs' last six games when playing at home against Washington
- The total has gone UNDER in seven of the Cubs' last 10 home games
