Dawn of Darkness v3.0Feb 1, 2015 Full Version 5 comments
You are Roarke the Merciless, a Ruby Knight of the Lucitan Guard. Imprisoned in the captured Manawyd Monastary by an army from the Cheitan Empire, who...
Dawn of Darkness was an excellent RPG/adventure/action game that was dumped by Ward Six Entertainment in 1999. It's not well-known, but it is a real gem, so make sure you play it.
Dawn Of Darkness takes place in a long vanished world of mighty forgotten empires and magic. It is the tale of a once revered Lucitanian warlord, Roarke The Merciless, caught between his obligations to his family, his empire and his honor.
You are Roarke the Merciless, imprisoned in the captured Manawyd monastary by an army from the Cheitan Empire who have attacked the village you have lived in. Roarke is an elite fighter, if perhaps a little out of practice since his days as one of Lucitan's greatest warlords. You begin playing armed with only the dagger Roarke had hidden in his boot, you must escape and find Sylmaril. How you do this is up to you. The game is played with basically the most of the same controls as Quake 2, except for the new commands and items bindings we've added.
Dawn of Darkness is a complete Total Conversion, including all-new weapons, bad guys, maps, textures, models, etc. There is even a new inventory system, and a character dialogue system where you can talk to anyone.
Weapons include a dagger and sword which you use by attacking while moving the mouse in the direction you wish to swing. Each weapon also has an alternate attack mode which do things like punch, block, etc. You can also get a bow, crossbow, pistol, blunderbuss, even a shovel. Some weapons have magical properties, like the sword which goes into Bloodlust mode when you're particularily lethal, and you can decapitate enemies.
Quake II 3.20 is required.

i don't think anyone on this board can tell you your chances... you need to talk to a doctor. as for your fertility returning, that depends on if you normally have regular cycles, how soon after having your other kids did your periods return, whether or not you are breastfeeding, etc... usually it's somewhere around 3 months after your baby is born if you are not breastfeeding, and somewhere around a year if you are. but, some people who breastfeed (like me) get their fertility back much sooner (mine was around 3-4 months postpartum), and some don't get their fertility back until later. (my friend didn't get her period until her baby was 2).

Product description
Nobel Peace Prize recipient Elie Wiesel, best known for his writings on the Holocaust, is also the accomplished author of novels, essays, tales, and plays as well as portraits of seminal figures in Jewish life and experience. In this volume, leading scholars in the fields of Biblical, Rabbinic, Hasidic, Holocaust, and literary studies offer fascinating and innovative analyses of Wiesel's texts as well as illuminating commentaries on his considerable influence as a teacher and as a moral voice for human rights. By exploring the varied aspects of Wiesel's multifaceted career--his texts on the Bible, the Talmud, and Hasidism as well as his literary works, his teaching, and his testimony--this thought-provoking volume adds depth to our understanding of the impact of this important man of letters and towering international figure.

Everyday Struggles in Language, Culture, and EducationThis book argues that identity as a term needs to be problematized, not taken for granted – for both the risks and the potential that the concept offers to educators for understanding issues of social inequality and how social inequality is being reproduced, and for exploring possible alternative ways educators can work with identity de/formation processes to seek to break the social reproduction
Race, Culture, and Identities in Second Language Education

Understanding the Production and Effects of ActionThe concept of agency has long been drawn upon – overtly or implicitly – in contemporary social theory. However, theory shapes how human agency and its determinants are understood and can be built upon. The last few years have seen growing interest in notions of privilege and affect. How might these newer concepts affect our understanding of agency? Does human agency need to make new modes of

About the ManufacturerLittle Partners was born out of my passion to help nurture the essential partnership between the parent and child. The essence of this special partnership is expressed beautifully by Rachel Carson in her book The Sense of Wonder, "If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder…he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in."

The Development Partners Working Group on Decentralisation and Local Governance - DeLoG
Learn4Dev Annual Meeting
From 15th to 17th June 2015 the annual meeting of the learn4dev network took place in East Kilbride, Scotland, co-organised by DFID and the European Commission. The focus of this year´s meeting was on learning together for sustainable development, the Post 2015 Agenda and the new challenges it imposes.
Main objectives of this year's annual meeting were amongst others to set the direction of the network for the coming year, to carry out the processes needed for effective and continued governance of the network and to explore how organizational learning and the learn4dev network can be used to adapt to the post-2015 agenda.
Around 35 participants from learn4dev member organizations and several key note speakers took part in the very participatory three day event. The DeLoG secretariat – representing the learn4Dev Expert Group on Decentralisation and Local Governance – focused in its reporting on its latest and improved e-learning course format.
Key questions of the event, which will be further elaborated on in the coming future, covered e.g. the engagement of new donors and south-south engagement in learning and capacity development as well as whether the existing expert groups sufficiently address the important issues for organizational learning.
For further information, please contact Nils Huhn (firstname.lastname@example.com).
DeLoG at the Commonwealth Local Government Conference in Gaborone, Botswana
The Commonwealth Local Government Conference took place from 16-19 June 2015 in Gaborone, hosted by the Botswana Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development, organised by the Commonwealth local government Forum (CLGF). Running under the theme "Local Government 2030: achieving the vision", it focused on priorities for local government post-2015 to play its full part in development including improving local governance and effectiveness, promoting sustainable local development, and strategies for inclusive, resilient and sustainable cities. Amongst the over 500 participants were also the President of Botswana, Seretse Khama Ian Khama and Helene Clark, Administrator of UNDP.
The DeLoG secretariat facilitated a working session on multi-level-governance, intergovernmental relations and the role of local government associations. Speakers where Mayor Scean Barnswell, President of the Association of Local Government Authorities of Jamaica and Vice-President and of the Caribbean Association of Local Governments, Councilor Mpho Nawa, Vice Chair of the South African Local Government Association and Patrick Mutabwire, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Local Government in Uganda. All speakers emphasized that all levels of government need to efficiently work together to enable local governments to fulfill their important role in implementing the SDGs. This requires amongst other access to financial resources and capacity development from central government and development partners.
Global Seminar Series in Brussels & Bern:
Localizing Public Services and Development: "The Local Public Sector's
Role in achieving Development Goals in Health and Education."
On the 10th and 13th of April 2015 the sessions 6 and 7 of the Global Seminar Series took place in Brussels and Bern, hosted by the European Commission and the Swiss Development Cooperation respectively. DeLoG / Urban Institute´s latest publication on "The Local Public Sector's Role in achieving Development Goals in Health and Education" was presented and discussed at the respective headquarters with a broad range of experts from different Development Partners in the fields of local governance, public finance/budget support as well as education and health.
In Brussels, Michel Laloge, Head of Sector Local Authorities, DEVCO B2 Unit, European Commission and Jorge Rodríguez Bilbao, Quality Support Manager of the Civil Society and Local Authorities Unit, DEVCO B2 Unit, European Commission gave the introductory framework for the presentation of the study by Jamie Boex, PhD, Senior Research Associate at the Urban Institute and lead author of the study. In Bern, Corinne Huser, Policy Advisor Democratisation, Decentralisation and Local Governance, introduced the study followed by Jochen Mattern, Coordinator of the DeLoG Secretariat.
In both Brussels and Bern the presentation of the study triggered lively discussions. Questions captured issues such as the definition and variation of tiers of local government, the correlation between decision making power and development outcomes, the existence of potential thresholds for localized spending and the assessment of local institutions capacities'. Lessons to take away from the study include, amongst others, the need for practitioners and Development Partners to look at and investigate in disaggregated sector data in order to answer how much money reaches the front line. Additionally, it became once again obvious, that decentralization is not an either or debate, but a multi-level and -actor dialog on how to best allocate, integrate and spend funds and resources correctly where they are most needed: On the local level.
Please follow this link for more information on the study and have a look at the Urban Institute blog for an interactive version of the health and education spending charts.
Learn4Dev In-Country Course in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo
The last in country-course this year, jointly organized by the DeLoG and the Ministry of Interior, Security and Decentralisation in DRC and supported by Belgian Development Agency (BTC), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the European Union was held from the 9th-11th December in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo. The seminar which attracted around 100 participants, aimed at contributing to the debate on the role and implementation of decentralization in the DRC. Participants were carefully drawn from government institutions at all levels, non-governmental organisations as well as from the academia.
At the end of the workshop, the participants compiled a final declaration that contained recommendations on how to move forward the decentralisation process for central, provincial and local government institutions as well as for development partners and civil society organisations. The document was presented to the minister of interior security and decentralization in the DRC on 19th December 2014.
DeLoG 9th Annual Meeting, SwedenThemed "Decentralisation & local governance: delivering development outcomes, strengthening democracy", DeLoG held the ninth annual meeting in Visby, Gotland, Sweden, hosted by ICLD and SIDA. Around 40 participants from 21 member and partner organisations attended the meeting in the medieval heart of Visby. The meeting was running parallel to the Swedish week of Democracy 'Almedalen' with over 30.000 visitors and 3.000 events.
One of these events was the DeLoG open session depicting the role of the local level in the post 2015 agenda where panelists from SIDA (Stina Kaltrun), the Hunger Project Sweden (Sara Wettergren) and the Urban Institute (Jamie Boex) discussed around local democracy and poverty reduction. During other sessions, the upcoming study on "the local public sector's role in achieving development goals." was discussed as well as the ongoing global consultation on "localizing the post 2015 agenda." Further thematic sessions discussed measuring the impact of decentralization reforms, decentralization in fragile environments, gender in DLG and new technologies to improve urban services. In addition, an open learn4dev meeting took place with the upcoming e-learning course and the new DeLoG Webinar Series. The annual meeting concluded with suggestions on DeLoG's work-plan for the up-coming year
Regional Seminar on National Monitoring and Evaluation Systems of Decentralisation Reforms in francophone Africa
Yaounde, Cameroon
Seven francophone countries met from June 17-19 in Yaounde, Cameroun, to foster better understanding of the achievements and stumbling blocks linked to organisation, elaboration and utilisation of national M&E systems. DeLoG had conceptualized and initiated the seminar, organized by the GIZ Decentralization and Local Governance Programme (PADDEL) in Cameroon.
Government officials and decentralisation programs' staff presented and discussed their respective M&E systems for decentralisation reforms. With decentralisation policies in place and legal frameworks adopted, experience exchange concentrated on challenges and risks encountered while elaborating and executing implementation mechanisms and packages of instruments. Practical steps for the way forward were designed for the respective countries.
Establishing national M&E systems is a long term undertaking. Development Partners' support is necessary for ensuring technical input and resources. Effects of synergy, harmonization and alignment might lead to the dissolution of the significant number of competing parallel systems and approaches and therewith to economies of scale.
DeLoG Open Course in Vienna: Enhancing Development Effectiveness in Decentralisation and Local Governance (DLG)
As part of its joint learning efforts, DeLoG organised a 3-day open course on enhancing development effectiveness in decentralisation and local governance. Hosted by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) the course took place in Vienna from March 25th - 27th 2014.
33 participants from the headquarters and field offices of a variety of organisations, namely, ADA, Austria, Care Austria, the Institute of Advanced Studies Vienna, BMZ, GIZ, Sida, Sweden, UNICEF, SDC, Helvetas Switzerland, UNDP, VIDC and the NGO Horizont 3000, joined the course to discuss conceptual and practical issues revolving around the nexus between Aid Effectiveness & DLG.
Thematically, topics discussed included development effectiveness, sector decentralisation, systemic approaches as well as joint support options. Political economy and equitable, gender sensitive governance were focal themes throughout the whole course. A special regional focus was placed on South-East Europe. The course therewith provided an opportunity for practitioners working in the region to share their experiences, discuss challenges they face and identify possible solutions. Initial feedback suggested that participants especially valued the opportunity to get in contact with practitioners from other organisations working in their country or region as it may foster future collaborations.

Time for Old Soldier McCain to Fade Away
Senator John McCain (R, AZ) continues his criticism of fellow Republicans for filibustering confirmation of CIA Director John O. Brennan over the White House's drone policy.
While interviewing with the Huffington Post, McCain used the term "wackos" to describe Senator Rand Paul (R, KY), Senator Ted Cruz (R, TX) and Representative Justin Amash (R, MI).
"They were elected, nobody believes that there was a corrupt election, anything else…But I also think that when, you know, it's always the wacko birds on right and left that get the media megaphone," said McCain.
When pressed for clarification on who the wackos are, McCain responded "Rand Paul, Cruz, Amash, whoever."
It seems like just yesterday that McCain was relishing his role as maverick, while using the megaphone provided him by the media to gain the 2008 GOP presidential nomination.
Some Republicans, led by McCain and Senator Lindsey Graham (R, SC), worry that the filibuster, which focused lots of positive attention on Paul, might end up reflecting poorly on the party.
Might these be the same Republicans who nominated Gerald Ford in 1976, sought to nominate John Connally or George H.W. Bush while opposing Ronald Reagan in 1980, nominated Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney?
Clearly, the most successful nominee in that bunch was the most Conservative: Reagan.: That the GOP continues to cling to the notion that presidential electoral success hinges on nominating the most moderate candidate largely explains their lack of recent success.
To his credit, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, who may prove to fit into the Conservative new blood category, described the filibuster as "completely awesome."
Meanwhile, in a radio interview with former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, Paul responded to McCain: "You know, I think he's just on the wrong side of history, and on the wrong side of this argument, really."
Paul continued by saying he respects both McCain's military service and his legislative record, but stressed that McCain's experience does not mean he is always right: "I treat Senator McCain with respect. I don't think I always get the same in return."
Americans on both sides of the aisle honor McCain for his service.: However, McCain must realize that it is time to pass the torch of leadership to a new generation of Conservative leaders demonstrably capable of filling his seemingly vacated role as maverick while leading Republicans to electoral victory.

Ahead of the Asia Europe People's Forum (AEPF) which coincides with the official ASEM8 summit this year in Brussels, four TNI scholar-activists - Susan George, Praful Bidwai, Ben Hayes and Walden Bello - discuss some of the key struggles facing citizens from both regions.
The AEPF this year in Brussels brought together citizens for dialogue, solidarity and action, as a platform from which to oppose corporate-dominated, undemocratic and neoliberal responses to ongoing crises.
At AEPF 2010 civil society from Europe and Asia will come together to discuss, propose and development democratic alternatives to neoliberal, free trade ideology dominating bi-regional development.
The language contained in agreements being negotiated by the EU through the WTO with their southern counterparts often deliberately diguises real political goals, obscuring the negative economic implications for those countries of the neoliberal agenda.
There are many important factors to consider when speaking broadly of China's role in Africa, and one should avoid falling into the trap of simplistic comparisons with historic African-European relations.
Why the EU's so-called "Economic Partnership Agreements" and free trade policies will have exactly the opposite effect of development on Least Developed Countries' economies.
335 organizations call on EU ministers to revise failed "market" approaches to food policy, and focus instead on meeting human needs, ensuring food sovereignty and environmental protection.

Featured Book
Fresh Frozen (hardcover and eBook )
by Darden North
It was just last April..
April 21st to be exact..
I was in Orlando..
helping my father pack..
He was going back to
Maine to finish his final days.
His brain cancer was getting worse.
He could no longer stay..
So I came home on April 21st..
Just in time to celebrate my sons birth..
He was ten years old and excitedly played..
With all his friends in the bounce house
I ordered for this day..
After all it was his double digit birthday..
A great day to celebrate..
My friend and neighbor Linda
sat and talked of days gone by..
Years our two boys had played
baseball together
Both of us always involved
in every way
both of us proud parents..
as we watched them grow and play..
At Christmas time we
always made crafts side by side.
We made Angels for our Christmas tress..
The children hung them with pride..
But on this particular day
my dear friend seemed
somehow lost inside..
and so we started talking
as the children played outside..
She said she knew her husband
was seeing someone else..
She said her heat was breaking..
then my heart began to melt
Then she claimed tonight
she was making him move out..
She sat right here next to me
and cried in my arms..
I could only offer friendship..
as she did for me many times..
She soon wiped her tears..
and said this is not the time..
Lets go enjoy this party..
I will be just fine..
She went home
to talk with her husband
sometime after five
she looked tired and very sad
but she said she would survive....
I kissed her on the cheek..
I told her I am always here..
Do not hesitate to call
you know that I am near..
By ten o clock that night..
I was thankful the party was done
My son was in the yard
playing with some new toy..
When suddenly I heard yelling..
It was my little boy..
Crying about an ambulance at Linda's..
Ohh God I thought ..
she is probably having a stress attack..
Her son Kyle called me then
on the phone.
he told me the ambulance
took his Mom away..
He knew I was a nurse
and wanted to hear
she would be OK..
Of course she will
I promised..
She is just under a little stress..
Don't worry sweet heat..
she will back home in no time at all..
Now just go to bed
get some rest
and you will see her tomorrow..
I still hear those stupid words
echoing in my head.
A promise to a ten year old...
Who trusted me like a Mom
I got the call at eleven,
that she was gone ..
had died in the ambulace.
But I said that can't be!!
She is way to young..
She has a ten year old son..
I promised him and my son too..
How could she be gone..
What am I going to do..
A heart attack..
as sudden as that..
My house was filled
with tears for days.
I cried for not seeing..
I cried for all I should have done..
I cried for Linda
and the promise I made to her son..
I cried because she told me
her heart was breaking. that very day.
and in some ways I wonder..
if it really did.
Break from the pain..
of love lost..
break from the betrayal..
of a love she did trust
The funeral was the hardest..
To watch her little boy Kyle
lead each and every person..
directly to the casket to see his Mom..
Telling everyone to say good bye..
and with each and every person
he cried..
I walked up to her casket..
She was not my Linda I thought..
I touched the butterfly necklace
A gift to her I brought...
One I knew she would
take to her grave..
very similar to the one she gave me..
I wear it always
When I bent down to kiss her.
My tears spilled on her hair..
and I whispered I know honey
Life isn't fair..
My son took it hard
that she died on his Birthday..
But I told him
God must have planned it that way..
He took only the sweetest angels..
on very special days..
So.. April 21st..
I lost a dear friend..
This day will always have..
a bittersweet blend..
To my friend Linda ..
We will meet again...
I love you and I am watching Kyle..
I know you are with us.
I feel you from time to time..
I am glad you are watching him.
as any proud Mom.
We miss you!!!
To Linda.. My neighbor and best friend..Died April 21st 2002 11:00 PM.. I know you have all read about all this death in my life.. but I lost four people in one short year and I want to make sure each one has a poem for them here..because I know you will all understand..

Shanghai port data sparks rise in shipping stocks
Charlotte So
Most Popular
Shares of shipping and port companies rallied after Shanghai port demand rebounded last month, pointing to a recovery in exports to the United States and Europe.
Shanghai Port, the largest on the mainland, saw container terminal throughput rise 7 per cent month on month to 2.14 million 20-foot equivalent units (teu).
That implies the year-on-year decline narrowed to 9 per cent last month from 16 per cent in the first half of the year, according to a Deutsche Bank report yesterday.
'We expect other ports to also report positive throughput data over the next few days,' said the report.
The improvement in port figures came after leading economic indicators on the mainland showed an upswing in demand for export goods. The July purchasing managers' index rose to 53.3, up 0.1 percentage point from the previous month. The sub-index for new export orders climbed 0.7 point from June to 52.1 points.
Falling inventory in the US has helped accelerate export demand from mainland factories. Speciality apparel retailers in the US reduced inventories by 13 per cent in the first quarter, one percentage point down from the previous quarter, showing the destocking is bottoming out. Department stores reduced stocks by 9 per cent from 10 per cent previously.
The pick-up in orders from the US and Europe has also been accompanied by an increase in freight rates, especially for recession-hit routes between Asia and Europe.
On July 1, China Shipping Container Lines raised rates by US$175 per teu for its Europe-Mediterranean route. It also planned to raise charges by US$50 per teu on July 15. Cosco Container Line has begun to charge peak-season surcharges on its Asia ex-Japan to Mediterranean and northwest Europe routes.
Cosco Pacific, the world's sixth-largest port operator, rose 17.93 per cent to HK$12.76 yesterday. China Merchants Holdings (International) closed 4.1 per cent higher at HK$26.65. China Cosco Holdings rose 10.18 per cent to HK$12.34.
