We are incredibly excited to announce that we have scheduled final lot selection and our final wipe, including all social data (names, friends, guilds), for Release 32, July 28, 2016! After Release 32, we will no longer be wiping the game state. Your characters and your properties will be persistent from that date forward.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Final Wipe and Lot Selection | Shroud of the Avatar
9:08:41 8.7.2015
RELEASE 20, July 30, 2015
Full Wipe: We are going to make some fundamental changes to item architecture that require us to do a full wipe for Release 20. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please note that if you have been waiting to melt down add-ons, this is your chance to do so as long as you do NOT login once R20 goes live (which automatically claims the items and prevents melt down).
Combat Pets & Taming: We will expand pet functionality to include the ability to tame some creatures and have them help you in combat.
Encounter Revamp: Random encounters are being reworked to be more engaging experiences, not just ambush scenarios. Additionally, roving encounters (patrolling creatures) will now appear on the overworld map and can be engaged (pulling you into a scene) or avoided if you wish to sneak past.
Player Owned Vendors: Players will now be able to place a Vendor on their property to sell goods.
Spells & Skills: We will continue to make a pass through the skill trees and add new skills, balance existing skills, and replace less useful skills.
Maps: We will continue to polish scenes along the Perennial Coast by converting to dynamic spawning and adding additional content like night-time spawners. We will also be adding a few new scenes; including the Crags Foothills (where players can enter the Etceter Crag Mines) and Desolate Hills.
Player Owned Towns: We will launch our island template and the first city using that template will be the Duchy of Dara Brae.
Creatures: We intend to introduce the Troll as our first very large creature and we hope to make the combat experience much different than would be found with normal sized opponents.
Crafting: Tailors and Alchemists will be able to begin crafting Taming Collars. Additionally, weapons and shields will now display material colors from crafting.
Player Made Books: This feature will continue to expand with the addition of Printing (making copies of books) as well as the ability to use Player Made Books as decorations.
RELEASE 21, August 27, 2015:
Crafting: Crafting skills will start to come online, and be used during crafting to modify results. Additionally, players will now have the ability to salvage items for materials and components.
Combat: The cover system will be introduced and will modify attack and defense values when you (or your target) are behind cover.
Maps: Perennial Coast polish will continue and new scenes will come online that expand the story, including the desert town of Desolis and the Chamber of Souls dungeon beneath it.
Emote "Teaching": Emotes will now be teachable to other players. Some emotes (like the ones tied to pledges) will only be teachable by the original owner. Teaching will be done via secure trading.
Player Owned Towns: We will continue to expand the number of templates and introduce a new Player Owned Town to the game.
Creatures: Dragons will begin appearing in Novia! Burninating will begin. All hail Trogdor, the Burninator!
Localization: We will begin crowdsourcing the translation of the game into various languages.
Weather: Weather will make a first appearance with rain and snow linked to seasonal changes.
Spells & Skills: More new spells, skills, and combos will come online.
Control Points: These scenes will now pull you into them automatically if held by enemies
RELEASE 22, September 25, 2015
Maps: More polish passes will be made in scenes beyond the Perennial Coast, including the shardfalls and the Graff Gem Mines. We will also continue to expand the story with new scenes including the town of Etceter and the dungeon of Artifice.
Housing: Property ownership will now incur regular fees (unless you are using a tax free deed from a pledge). If the fees are not paid, the player will lose their claim, and their possessions (including the house and decorations) will be moved to their bank.
Creatures: Our creature list will continue to expand with Chaos Demons and Wisps.
Guild Warfare: Guilds will now be able to declare war on each other.
Musical Instruments: Players can play music in the game with a variety of instruments.
Fishing: Players can begin catching fish in the game.
Crafting: Crafting Table quality, location, and calendar will begin to factor into crafting results.
Player Owned Towns: We will continue to expand the number of templates and introduce at least one new Player Owned Town to the game.
taming!! :D

And more attacks…
May 20, 2015
Our website is subject to more attacks, since yesterday starting at about 9pm CDT, May 19, 2015. The changes done to our setup over the last two days seem to handle and slow it down enough to keep everything accessible, although definitely noticeably slowing things down. So I guess the good news is that the infrastructure did get a lot more stable thanks to this free "test data" from whoever is behind this. The bad news is, it also seems like they have a lot of patience and simply stretch out the attack to many more hours.
About the slowness due to high load on the servers: Although I can throw more machines at the problem to improve performance, this won't fix the root of the problem. As it targets specifically the website login, I decided to temporarily disable it, for now, and tweak my filtering rules to punish abusive attempts even more aggressively than what I put in place, yesterday.
Update: at 6pm CDT on May 20, the attacks stopped. Logins are re-enabled and more work is underway to automatically blacklist nodes that are obvious part of the botnet we are dealing with, instead of just slowing them down.
Thank you for understanding,

Continued Attack
May 18, 2015
It looks like what we experienced yesterday, and described in the previous post, started again at around 7:30am CDT, May 18, 2015, again. We disabled the website and forum login for now, while we continue to work on changes to handle this better in the future. Note that if you are logged in to the site already, you can use it as usual. Also, the game itself does not seem to be affected once you make it past the login.
Update: seems like the attack stopped around 11am CDT. With the insights from yesterday and today, I'm working now on automating the handling of similar attacks in the future. Login to the site and forum is now fully restored, however, if it picks up again before I get all the necessary work in to handle this in the future, it might need to be temporarily suspended again. Fingers crossed. Thanks for understanding.
Sorry about the inconvenience,

Intermittent Outage
May 17, 2015
We are currently experiencing a malicious attack that started at 7:30am CDT, May 17, 2015, that is potentially preventing players from logging into the game, the forums, and the website. The game itself does not seem to be affected once you make it past the login.
Update: seems like we got a handle on it and the attack stopped as of 1:45pm CDT. We'll keep an eye on this and improve our infrastructure to handle this better in the future. Thanks for understanding.

MR_DAN: ja s tim bohuzel musim souhlasit. hlavni duraz je kladenej na to, aby meli hlavne kazdy release novy item do add-on store, aby sis mohl koupit jinou barvu releasovyho klobouku apod.
obecne je videt, ze se ten jejich mini team fakt soustredi primarne na to jak promovat dalsi side projekty jako je ultima underworld a nez pridavat do hry to co bylo slibeno, opravovat major bugy a jiny nepodstatny pi****** ze. :]
jak vidno, tak i toto auditko to trochu reflektuje, nyni je venku release 17, kde crafting skilly stale nejsou implementovane, ve skluzu je vsechno jak svine a dev hangouts jsou dost casto promo vysmech, kde rozdavaj 10$ addonstore bonusy, kdy uz ani lord british neudrzi ten poker face.
no jako je to vtipny.
ja osobne bych to v soucasny fazi nedoporucil, pokud tomu clovek hodne neveri a nechce to podporit.
nicmene vzhledem k tomu trendu, ktery jsem vypozoroval tomu taky tak trochu prestavam verit.
nas vzorec je:
a: jaj, novy release
b: jakej je klobouk?
a: hnusnej.
lognem, nadavame na lagy, dobu loadingu neopraveny bugy, opakujici se lokace, obehneme free hat quest a oglogneme.
dale jen doufame v dalsi release s tim, ze zadnou farmu nebo nejaky vetsi angazovani se ve hre planujiem az po tom, co budem vedet, ze je to alespon hratelny..
15:00:52 13.5.2015
tak jak vypada soucasny stav hry? uz se na tom da stravit nejaky ten zabavny cas?
predevcirem jsem zas bojoval s Buy tlacitkem na steamu, az jsem udelal tu chybu, ze jsem si precetl negativni hodnotitele, kteri se vesmes shodnou na tom, ze ten obrovsky hype kolem hry je dost umele vyhnany developerama samotnyma... neco ve stylu vychvalte to az do nebes vsude kde muzete, diky tomu budem mit hodne penez a za ty vam mozna udelame skvelou f2p hru
tak bych rad ziskal nejaky strizlivy a objektivni pohled na vec :-)

Rambus thinks that Nvidia's use of SDR, DDR, DDR2, DDR3, GDDR, and GDDR3 SDRAM in their products violates 17 (count 'em... 17!) patents that Rambus owns. Those chips sit inside all sorts of Nvidia gear, and apparently Rambus has been trying for a settlement for years. Now it's using the legal system to claim cash for the damages. Bad news for Nvidia, but Rambus is still apparently trying "to continue discussions with Nvidia to reach a negotiated settlement." I bet.

Credit ratings of some big UK banks could suffer because of the Independent Commission on Banking's proposals for separating retail services from banks' wholesale and investment banking businesses, according to Standard & Poor's.
Highlights from U.K. Independent Commission on Banking Interim Report: Structural Reforms Could Have Divergent Ratings Impact
- The Independent Commission on Banking published its interim report on April 11; the final report is due in September.
- The report has a wide remit and we believe it could influence international regulation.
- Ring-fencing of retail banking might reduce our assessment of likely government support in determining certain credit ratings.
- Banks' stand-alone ratings could suffer from greater funding and capital constraints.
- Additional capital requirements for retail businesses could improve capital scores.
- We remain sceptical over competition measures.
The preferred approach of the ICB would be to adopt ring-fencing, whereby such services are contained in separately capitalized subsidiaries, leaving the structure of the rest of the banking group largely unchanged.
In our view, and despite the balance sought between financial safety and risk taking inherent in this approach, there could be an impact on our U.K. bank ratings if we were to adopt a more conservative approach to giving benefit for the likelihood of systemic support.
Further, to the extent that ring-fencing might "trap" some capital in retail entities, then that could potentially open up rating differentials between current "core" subsidiaries under our Group Methodology criteria. The possibility of reduced flexibility might also lead to a more negative view of group capital–all other factors remaining equal. Similar considerations might apply to our funding analysis to the extent that ring-fencing reduces funding flexibility across groups.

I enjoyed my stay at this Residence Inn, that is designed (and possibly used to be) more like an embassy suites, with the tiered lobby and waterfalls. The breakfast was above-average for a Residence Inn, the rooms updated and quite clean. The staff was incredibly helpful.
Only con: parking is obnoxiously expensive ($30.50 once tax is factored in) but this seems to be the norm in Seattle, where parking meters adorn every square inch of real estate.
I will stay here again.

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, BUREAU OF DRIVER LICENSING, APPELLANTv.PHILIP D. NEW, APPELLEE
Appeal from the Order of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, in the case of Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Philip D. New, No. 3390 Civil 1986.
Christopher J. Clements, Assistant Counsel, with him, Harold H. Cramer, Assistant Chief Counsel, and John L. Heaton, Chief Counsel, for appellant.
No appearance for appellee.
Judges Doyle and McGinley, and Senior Judge Kalish, sitting as a panel of three. Opinion by Judge Doyle.
[ 119 Pa. Commw. Page 539]
This is an appeal by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (DOT) from an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County which sustained the appeal of Philip D. New (Licensee) and reversed DOT's decision to suspend Licensee's driving privileges for sixty-five days. We reverse.
On August 20, 1984 and December 9, 1984, Licensee was convicted of violating Section 3362 of the Vehicle Code, 75 Pa. C.S. § 3362 (Code) pertaining to speeding. Licensee's driving record was assessed with a total of seven points for these two convictions. DOT informed Licensee that he was required to pass a driver's examination as his point total exceeded six. On June 19, 1985, Licensee passed the required driving examination and two points were removed from his record, reducing his total accumulation of points to five.
On August 21, 1985, Licensee was convicted for speeding a third time and his record accumulated four more points. Licensee then received notice that his point accumulation was nine and that he was required to attend a departmental hearing. The hearing took place on March 5, 1986, but no action was taken. Consequently, as of April 4, 1986, Licensee's point total remained at nine.
On August 18, 1986, Licensee was again cited for speeding and he accumulated four more points. By official notice dated October 29, 1986, DOT notified Licensee that his operating privileges were being suspended for sixty-five days due to his accumulation of thirteen points pursuant to Section 1539 of the Code. Licensee appealed this suspension alleging that DOT failed to notify him of the first nine points assessed on his record.
At the de novo hearing, DOT introduced the certified driving record of Licensee as proof that it had met
[ 119 Pa. Commw. Page 540]
its notice requirements for all thirteen points. The trial court, with great reservation, sustained Licensee's appeal relying on this Court's decision in Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Suchko, 92 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 520, 499 A.2d 738 (1985), holding that since DOT did not present certified copies of the actual notice letters, it did not meet its burden to prove the date notice was sent to the licensee. This appeal ensued.
The sole issue before us is whether DOT's certification statement of Licensee's driving record is sufficient evidence of notice. We believe that it is.
This issue has recently been decided by our Court in Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Petrucelli, 117 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 163, 543 A.2d 213 (1988), wherein we stated:
Therefore, we hold that DOT's certification of the driving record showing that notice was given is competent to establish that the notice was sent. DOT's certification of its records is not sufficient to establish the date of the notice or for that matter anything further than the mere fact that the notice was sent. (Emphasis added.)
Id. at 167, 543 A.2d at 213.
Petrucelli limits the use of certified records to establishing only that notice was sent to a licensee. In that case, our Court limited the Suchko requirement that to prove when notice is sent DOT must do more than introduce a general certification of its computerized records that shows notice was sent and that indicates the date on which that notice was sent. In Suchko the specific issue was the timeliness of the appeal by the licensee and the mailing date of the notice by DOT was critical. We held there that DOT's certification of its records was not sufficient evidence to establish that the notice was sent on a particular date so
[ 119 Pa. Commw. Page 541]
as to preclude a licensee from filing an appeal. Therefore, Licensee's reliance on Suchko is misplaced.
In the case at bar, DOT's only burden was to establish that notice was sent to Licensee, not to establish also when he received such notice. Licensee does not even assert that notice was not received by him. See Faulstick v. Commonwealth, 66 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 529, 445 A.2d 554 (1982). Section 1536 of the Code provides:
Whenever points are assigned to a driver's record, the department shall send to that person at his last known address a letter of notice pointing out the fact and emphasizing the nature and effects of the point system. Failure to receive such letter shall not prevent the suspension of the operating privilege pursuant to this subchapter. (Emphasis added.)
See also Suchko (where we note in a footnote that point assessment notice could be established if the licensee took a driver's examination after being instructed to do so by DOT). Here, Licensee's record was reduced by two points for passing a special examination after an accumulation of seven points, the notice for which is the subject of Licensee's complaint.
Upon review, we note that DOT has produced a complete and comprehensive certified record of Licensee's speeding violations. We hold that this record alone is sufficient to establish that notice was sent to Licensee. Petrucelli. Therefore, since the total number of points accumulated by Licensee is thirteen, Section 1539 of the Code mandates suspension of his driving privileges for sixty-five days.
Accordingly, we must reverse the order of the trial court and reinstate DOT's suspension of Licensee's operating privileges for sixty-five (65) days.*fn1
[ 119 Pa. Commw. Page 542]
Now, September 20, 1988, the order of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County is hereby reversed and DOT's suspension of Licensee's driving privileges is hereby reinstated.

Appeal from Circuit Court of Cook County; the Hon. DAVID A.
CANEL, Judge, presiding. Affirmed.
Rehearing denied February 11, 1970.
Defendants appeal from a judgment of $11,000 after a jury trial on plaintiff's claim that defendants unlawfully detained and withheld plaintiff's goods and chattels.
On appeal defendants contend that the trial court erred in (1) refusing to instruct the jury that the defendants' liability must be predicated upon their gross negligence; (2) permitting plaintiff's expert testimony as to the value of the detained goods; and (3) denying defendants' motion for judgment n.o.v.
In her complaint plaintiff alleged that she was the owner of certain goods and chattels which included various paintings, sculptures, costumes and jewelry; that the defendants became possessed of the costumes, jewelry and sculptures in January 1958 when she was a guest in their house; that the defendants became possessed of the paintings in April 1960 when they were forwarded to them by the plaintiff from Cuba; and that she has made repeated demands for the return of these items but defendants have unlawfully detained and withheld them from her.
Defendants' answer denied that they became possessed of any of the plaintiff's goods on the dates alleged, or at any time whatsoever; denied that the plaintiff was a houseguest but was rather a tenant; and denied that they ever detained or withheld any property belonging to the plaintiff.
Testimony of plaintiff on her own behalf:
She was a citizen and resident of Mexico. She bought and sold paintings, costumes, jewelry and sculptures and operated an art gallery in Mexico for seven years. She is still engaged in the buying and selling of these items. Mr. Teichert operated an art gallery in Chicago when she first met him and she became close friends with the defendants. She was invited to spend Christmas with them in 1957. When she arrived she brought with her costumes, jewelry and sculptures which she used in her work. She was called home to Mexico in early February 1958 because her mother was near death. The costumes, jewelry and sculptures remained in the defendants' home.
Forty-five paintings were sent from Cuba to the defendants by her. Mr. Teichert then sent the following reply letter:
"HANS R. TEICHERT COMPANY AN EYE FOR COLOR. 1311 North Wells Street, Chicago 10, Illinois.
April 29, 1960 "Dear Princess:
"We finally are in possession of your paintings which are stored in our studio. Gloria will show them and if possible sell them as soon as you let us have the prices.
"When they finally called me to pick up the paintings I found them in terrible shape. They were packed tightly in three crates. When the custom officials pulled them out of the crates, all the frames were broken and since they were packed so tightly, it was impossible to repack them, and we had to pick them up in the condition they are in. Items 40 to 43 are missing. They were not packed in the three crates nor are they missing out of these crates because it would have been impossible to pack any more into them. This means there must have been another crate, and since the shipment only called for three crates, I accepted the paintings.
"I would advise that you get in touch with your shipper from Cuba. He might have shipped by mistake only three crates, and one crate might still be in Cuba.
"The frames that are all broken are of course only cheap moldings held together by one nail and they are of no value.
"We would like to hear from you as soon as possible as to how much you have to receive for these individual items so that we can either sell them if possible or return them to you.
Kindest regards, Hanns & Gloria Teichert
"Princess Maya Nicte Ha Box 10584
The "missing" items, Nos. 40 to 43, referred to in the letter, are not paintings but books and prints.
The defendants never exhibited the paintings because she did not send them a power of attorney.
She was the owner of the thirteen missing paintings as well as the various pieces of sculpture, costumes and jewelry which she described. The defendants returned thirty-one of the paintings and one costume dress to her. Mrs. Teichert had told her that all the other items were stolen. Mr. Teichert knew nothing about this theft.
She gave her opinion as to the value, in American dollars and in Chicago, of each missing article. She changed the Mexican peso into the dollar to arrive at the correct value. She based her opinion upon her experience as an art dealer and the price she paid for each item.
She had a gallery in Mexico City but did not have a business establishment in Chicago, and she never bought or sold any paintings or costumes in Chicago. The artist who painted the picture put the value on it, but from her experience she knew what value each particular painting should have.
Testimony of Leonard Handmacher, called by the defendants:
He is an attorney of record for the defendants. After plaintiff's complaint was filed, he called Mr. Joseph, one of the attorneys for plaintiff, and asked him to help inventory some boxes of clothes which were stored at defendants' place of business. These articles belonged to the plaintiff. After the inventory, Mr. Joseph signed for the boxes and they were sealed. (The offer of this inventory list into evidence was refused by the court since the list did not show any of the items which were not returned to plaintiff.)
Testimony of Hanns Teichert, one of the defendants, in his own behalf:
He bought, appraised and exhibited paintings but never sold them. He did not consider himself an art dealer. He knows very little about Mexican art except for the great masters. He helped the plaintiff get her paintings out of Cuba because she was a friend. One year after the paintings had arrived, he received a letter from the customs office notifying him that the paintings would be sold at auction unless they were picked up. He paid approximately $150 to have them released to him. They were stored in six or eight boxes when he picked them up. They were broken and damaged. He then wrote the letter dated April 29, 1960, stating that he had received the paintings.
He later wrote plaintiff another letter stating that the paintings would sell for little value as they were all unknown artists. He advised her to take them back to Mexico where they would be worth more money. The value he placed on these paintings was based upon his experience in Chicago; however, he could not identify the paintings in his possession as he never looked at them very carefully.
After the plaintiff requested the return of her costumes, sculptures and jewelry which had been left at his house, they were sent to her. He sent as much as he could find. Neither he nor his wife had any of the items listed in plaintiff's complaint in their possession.
On cross-examination he stated that there were additional articles of plaintiff remaining after he had shipped her the costumes and other items. The plaintiff never asked him to return any of the remaining articles. A woman came with a letter from the plaintiff and he let her take whatever remaining items he had belonging to plaintiff. He did not obtain a receipt from this woman.
He knew nothing about his wife's conversation with the plaintiff in which she said that plaintiff's property had been stolen. He did not count the paintings when he picked them up at the customs office and could not recall writing the letter dated April 29, 1960, until it was shown to him to refresh his recollection. He could not remember having a conversation with the plaintiff concerning items 40 to 43. He only knew that they were missing. (These items are not involved in this suit.)
Defendants first contend that the trial court erred in refusing to give defendants' Instructions 2, 3 and 4:
A gratuitous bailee is not liable to the bailor for loss or damage to the goods in the absence of gross negligence.
The term "gross negligence" means a course of action which shows an utter indifference or conscious disregard for the property of another.
If you find from the evidence that the defendants are guilty of gross negligence in the keeping of the property which the plaintiff claims that she gave into their possession, then you must find on behalf of the plaintiff.
If, however, on the other hand, you find that the defendants were not guilty of gross negligence in the maintaining and keeping of the property which the plaintiff claims she gave into their possession, then you must find on behalf of the defendants.
The court did give defendants' Instruction No. 9:
The plaintiff has the burden of proving each of the following propositions:
First, that she is the owner of or entitled to the possession of certain goods and chattels set forth in her complaint.
Second, that the defendants became possessed of the goods and chattels of the plaintiff.
Third, that the plaintiff made repeated demands for the return of the property claimed by her and that the defendants unlawfully detained and withheld said property from the plaintiff.
Fourth, that the plaintiff sustained damages.
If you find from your consideration of all the evidence that each of these propositions has been proved, then your verdict should be for the plaintiff, but, if, on the other hand, you find from your consideration of all the evidence that any of these propositions has not been proved, then your verdict should be for the defendants.
The court also gave defendants' Instruction No. 1 defining a gratuitous bailment. Defendants argue that since this instruction was given, it was incumbent upon the court to give their instructions Nos. 2, 3 and 4 on the degree of care required of such bailee. However, defendants' instructions do not accurately define the duty of a gratuitous bailee. *fn1
In Miles v. International Hotel Co., 289 Ill. 320, 327, 124 N.E. 599, the court stated:
A gratuitous bailee of property is bound to take reasonable care to protect it from loss or damage. As bailee the defendant in error was bound to exercise such care and diligence in the preservation of the property entrusted to it as every prudent man takes of his own goods of like character. Ordinary diligence means that degree of care, attention or exertion which under the circumstances a man of ordinary prudence and discretion would use in reference to the particular thing were it his own property. (Schaefer v. Safety Deposit Co. 281 Ill. 43.)
In Skelley v. Kahn, 17 Ill. 169, 170, the term "gross negligence" was defined as an omission of that degree of care which a gratuitous bailee is required to use and that such care is that which "men of common sense and common prudence, however inattentive, ordinarily take of their own affairs, . . . ."
We find no error in the refusal of defendants' instructions.
[4-6] Defendants concede that a bailor establishes a prima facie case by showing delivery of property and a failure to return it and that this presumption must be rebutted by bailee by showing his exercise of the appropriate degree of care in the protection of the property. Sampson v. Birkeland, 63 Ill. App.2d 178, 211 N.E.2d 139. The evidence showed delivery to defendants and a failure to return. Defendants' explanations were presented to the jury which found for the plaintiff. We believe the evidence supports this finding.
The defendants next contend that the trial court erred in refusing to strike plaintiff's testimony as to the value of the withheld items. They argue that the measure of damages for the loss of personal property is determined by the value of the property at the time and place of the loss. When the plaintiff was asked to give her opinion as to the value of the missing articles, it was based upon their individual worth in Chicago in 1962. Furthermore, these articles would have an international worth thereby causing the value in Mexico and Chicago to be approximately the same. If any variation did exist, the defendants could have rebutted the plaintiff's opinion testimony; however, her testimony as to value remained unchallenged.
[7-9] Defendants also argue that plaintiff's valuation testimony is incompetent and inadmissible because it was not based upon developed expertise. To sustain this contention, the defendants must show a clear abuse of discretion by the trial court in permitting the expert testimony. Only then will we review the trial court's ruling. Bonato v. Peabody Coal Co., 248 Ill. 422, 94 N.E. 69; Moren v. Samuel M. Langston Co., 96 Ill. App.2d 133, 237 N.E.2d 759; and Taylor v. The Carborundum Co., 107 Ill. App.2d 12, 246 N.E.2d 898. The defendants have failed to prove that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. In Taylor v. The Carborundum Co., supra, 18, the court stated:
The test of competency for an expert is whether or not he exhibits sufficient knowledge of the subject matter to entitle his opinion to go to the jury. Piacentini v. Bonnefil, 69 Ill. App.2d 433, 217 N.E.2d 507 (1966). A trial court has broad discretion in determining if a witness has been qualified as an expert. Northern Illinois Gas Co. v. Wienrank, 66 Ill. App.2d 60, 213 N.E.2d 411, (1965).
Since the items in question were rather unique in character and could not be exhibited due to their disappearance, their worth had to be determined by a person with special knowledge. The plaintiff was engaged in the business of buying and selling paintings, costumes, sculptures and jewelry for approximately seventeen years. For seven of those years she operated an art gallery dealing in these items. She is still regularly engaged in this type of work. She knew the artist who worked on each painting and from her own experience, in conjunction with the worth each artist placed on his work, she could then establish a value for each painting. She used the costumes and jewelry in giving concerts at schools and universities with the value being determined by the overall cost of each item.
[10-13] While the plaintiff did not buy and sell paintings, costumes, sculptures and jewelry in Chicago, this only affects the weight that her testimony should be given and not its admissibility. In Buckler v. Sinclair Refining Co., 68 Ill. App.2d 283, 293, 216 N.E.2d 14, the court said:
To render an opinion an expert need only possess special skill or knowledge beyond that of the average layman, and the determination of his qualifications rests within the sound discretion of the trial judge. People v. Jennings, 252 Ill. 534, 550, 96 N.E. 1077. The weight to be attached to such an opinion is a question for the jury in light of the expert's credentials, the facts upon which he bases his opinion and any limitations placed thereon during cross-examination.
Therefore, we find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in permitting the plaintiff to testify as to her opinion of the value of each missing item.
The defendants also argue that plaintiff's testimony as to value was partly based upon the hearsay testimony of the artists. In testifying, the plaintiff stated that she based the value of each painting on her experience from working with each artist and on the date the particular picture was painted, the older the painting the higher the value. It was her business to know whether the value placed on each painting by the artist was its true worth. In Forest Preserve Dist. of Du Page County v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank, 108 Ill. App.2d 65, 73, 247 N.E.2d 188, the court, in discussing the admissibility of testimony as to value based upon partial hearsay knowledge, stated:
In Department of Public Works and Buildings v. Hufeld, 68 Ill. App.2d 120, 129, 215 N.E.2d 312 (1966), the court, while paying homage to use of hearsay as a part of the general knowledge and experience only, recognized that valuation opinions based, in part, on hearsay knowledge of other sales are still proper. Also see: Vol 5, Nichols on Eminent Domain, 3rd ed, §§ 18.4, 18.41 and 18.42.
We do suggest that an otherwise competent valuation witness is not rendered incompetent merely because he bases his opinion, in part, on hearsay knowledge of other sales.
We find that the testimony of the plaintiff was properly admitted.
Defendants' final contention is that the court erred in refusing to grant its motion for judgment n.o.v. since the plaintiff did not sustain the burden of proving that the paintings were delivered to them. Plaintiff testified that she sent thirty-nine paintings to the defendants and that thirty-one were ultimately returned to her. Mr. Teichert testified that the plaintiff had the paintings consigned to him so that they could be shipped to him in Chicago. The paintings subsequently arrived and he picked them up one year later from the customs office. He then wrote a letter dated April 29, 1960, stating that he was in possession of the paintings. He also stated that he "must have seen the list" sent by the plaintiff describing the items shipped from Cuba. When asked if he had received "everything on this list that was within numbers one to 39," he answered, "Obviously." Defendants assert that the complaint only lists eight paintings; however, one of the items listed is "6 Yucatacan Themes" and plaintiff testified to "Six Yucatacan Themes" each valued at $200. The complaint therefore listed thirteen paintings and the proof related to thirteen paintings. The plaintiff sustained the burden of proving the delivery of the paintings to the defendants. The trial court did not err in refusing to grant defendants' motion for judgment n.o.v.
The judgment is affirmed.

Abundant standard paper capacity. Prodigious duty cycle. Good speed. Low claimed cost per page.
Slightly sub-par text and graphics quality.
The OKI B730dn is at top of OKI's B700 line of monochrome LED printers geared to offices with large print volume.
The OKI B730dn ($1,249.99 direct) is the high-end model in OKI's 700 series of monochrome laser-class printers geared to offices with heavy print volumes. With generous standard paper capacity, prodigious monthly duty cycle, and good speed, the B730dn is more than up to anchoring an office or workgroup churning out reams of black-and-white material. Its output isn't the best we've seen, but it should be fine for workaday business printing.
The OKI B730dn uses an LED-based engine, which is essentially the same as a laser but uses light-emitting diodes instead of lasers as a light source. The printer is white, with gently curving sides, and measures 15.9 by 16.6 by 18.3 inches (HWD) and weighs 46.5 pounds. It's large enough that you wouldn't want to share a desk with it, though still relatively compact for a high-volume printer.
Also in the B700 family is the OKI B730n ($1,099.99 direct, 3.5 stars), the same as the B730dn but lacking an automatic duplexer. The OKI B720dn ($999.99) includes the duplexer, but has a slower rated (and timed) speed than the OKI B730dn, as well as a slightly lower duty cycle (250,000 pages per month, compared with the B730n/B730dn's 275,000 pages). The OKI B720n ($849.99 direct, 3.5 stars) is the B720DN without the duplexer. The OKI B710n ($625.99 direct) and OKI B710dn ($775.99 direct, 3.5 stars), which have still lower rated print speeds (42 ppm) and duty cycles round out the field.
The B730dn's front panel contains a 5-line blue, backlit LCD display, an alphanumeric keypad, and a port for a USB thumb drive, as well as several function buttons. The keypad lets administrators control access to the printer, and users can enter PIN numbers on it to access stored jobs. Although you can't preview documents on the display, before printing from the thumb drive you can print out a summary of the drive's contents, which includes filenames, file sizes, and dates.
The B730dn offers a generous standard 700-sheet paper capacity, between 550-sheet and 150-sheet trays. If you think you may want an auto-duplexer for printing on both sides of a sheet of paper, you're better off buying the B730dn than the otherwise identical B730n, in effect getting the duplexer thrown in for less than half the price. OKI offers a pair of optional 550-sheet paper trays for $311.99 (direct) to a max of 1,800-sheet capacity. Among the other options are an offset output tray ($319.99) and a 40GB hard drive ($327.99).
Despite its large standard paper capacity, the B730dn is bested by some other mono lasers in paper-handling potential. Although the Editors' Choice Lexmark T650n ($699 direct, 4 stars) comes standard with only a 350-sheet standard paper capacity, users can add options such as a duplexer, stacker, finisher, and output bin, plus additional trays to increase the paper capacity up to 4,000 sheets.
The B730dn offers USB and Ethernet connectivity plus the rarely seen (these days) parallel and RS-232-C serial connections; we tested it on an Ethernet network with a PC running Windows Vista.
Print Speed and Output Quality
I timed the B730dn on the latest version of our business applications suite (using QualityLogic's hardware and software for timing), at an effective 12 pages per minute (ppm), faster than the B730n, which I clocked at 11 ppm, though they share the same print engine, with a rated speed of 52 pages per minute. The rated speeds are about what you'd expect based on text printing only, while our suite combines text pages, graphics pages, and pages with mixed content. I timed the B720dn, with a 47-page per minute rated print speed, on the same tests at 11.5 ppm. The Lexmark T650n ran through the tests at a 10-ppm clip.
Text quality was slightly subpar for a laser-class printer, though still fine for general business uses except for those requiring very small fonts. Graphics were a bit below average for a mono laser, although the B730dn did better than most printers in printing very thin lines. Some illustrations appeared washed out, and certain backgrounds didn't print out at all. The graphics were suitable for workaday business use, though you might think twice about printing PowerPoint handouts to give to important clients.
Photo quality was a little below average for a mono laser printer. Detail was often lost in brighter areas. Several prints showed obvious banding. The photo quality is up to printing out recognizable photos from Web pages but not what we'd expect, say, for printing out client newsletters.
A plus for the B730dn is its low claimed running cost of 1.4 cents per page.
As befitting its place as top dog in OKI's B700 series, the OKI B730dn brings some serious chops to that role, providing speed, providing speed and a prodigious standard and optional paper capacity and duty cycle. It lacks the variety of paper-handling options of the Editors' Choice Lexmark T650n, and can't match its output quality either. Still, the B730dn is easy to recommend as a monochrome laser-class workhorse for a small to midsize office with heavy black-and-white printing volume.

Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division
May 21, 2013
STATE OF NEW JERSEY, Plaintiff-Respondent,v.DAWN M. LOPEZ, Defendant-Appellant.
Submitted March 5, 2013
On appeal from the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Bergen County, Municipal Appeal No. 01-36-11.
Rem Zeller Law Group, attorneys for appellant (Joseph P. Rem, Jr., of counsel; Lisa R. Paitchell, on the brief).
John L. Molinelli, Bergen County Prosecutor, attorney for respondent (William Miller, Assistant Prosecutor, of counsel and on the brief).
Before Judges Harris and Hoffman.
Defendant Dawn Lopez appeals from her de novo conviction for driving while intoxicated (DWI). Defendant argues that her conviction should be vacated due to violations of her rights under the federal and state constitutions. We affirm.
On June 16, 2010, defendant was involved in an automobile accident. The Bergen County Police Department sent an officer to respond to the scene. At the scene, the officer observed indications that led him to believe defendant had been DWI. The officer had defendant perform field sobriety tests, which confirmed his suspicions. He arrested defendant on charges of DWI and careless driving, then transported her to headquarters.
At headquarters, another officer administered an Alcotest breath examination to defendant, which produced a reading of 0.16 percent blood alcohol content.
On November 9, 2010, the Central Municipal Court of Bergen County heard defendant's motion to suppress the Alcotest results. Defendant argued, in part, that the results should be suppressed due to the State's failure to use the Ertco-Hart Thermometer. The municipal court judge decided to adjourn the matter until State v. Holland, 422 N.J.Super. 185 (App. Div. 2011), then still pending, was decided, as it concerned the same argument.[1]
On December 7, 2010, the municipal court heard the testimony of the arresting officer pertaining to his observations of defendant. The judge reserved his decision, as we had yet to issue an opinion in Holland.
On June 20, 2011, following our decision in Holland, the municipal court denied defendant's motion to suppress the Alcotest results. On the same date, the officer who administered the Alcotest on defendant began his testimony. However, the officer was unable to complete his testimony, as he had failed to bring his "Alcotest checklist, " which he indicated he needed for reference. Over defendant's objection, the judge adjourned the matter to permit the testifying officer to retrieve his checklist for use at the next court date. Defendant argued that the multiple adjournments violated her right against double jeopardy. U.S. Const. amend. VI; N.J. Const. art. I, ¶ 11.
On August 9, 2011, the officer who administered the Alcotest was over an hour late to court. Over defendant's objection, the judge again adjourned the trial. This time, defendant contended that the postponement violated her right to a speedy trial. U.S. Const. amend. VI; N.J. Const. art. I, ¶ 10.
On September 13, 2011, the trial continued. The officer who administered the Alcotest testified that he discovered that he had not completed an Alcotest checklist or any other report in this case, but he did have the Alcotest Influence Report generated by the Alcotest. The judge determined the Alcotest results were admissible and found defendant guilty of DWI and not guilty of careless driving.
On the same date, the judge sentenced defendant to a two-year driver's license suspension, installation of an interlock device on her vehicle for one year, forty-eight hours in the Intoxicated Driver's Resource Center, thirty-days of community service, and fees and costs.
Thereafter, defendant filed a timely de novo appeal of her conviction and sentence to the Law Division, arguing her constitutional rights were violated due to the multiple adjournments of the trial. On March 12, 2012, the Law Division conducted a hearing on the appeal. Following the hearing, the Law Division judge issued an oral decision rejecting defendant's arguments, finding defendant guilty, and imposing the same sentence as the municipal court. On March 23, 2012, the judge signed an order reflecting his oral decision.
This appeal followed, with defendant raising the following points for our consideration:
Municipal DWI convictions are first appealed to the Law Division. R. 7:13-1; R. 3:23-1; State v. Golin, 363 N.J.Super. 474, 481 (App. Div. 2003). The standard of review of such appeal is de novo, Rule 3:23-8, and the Law Division decides the case anew, deferring only to the credibility findings of the municipal court. State v. Locurto, 157 N.J. 463, 472-74 (1999). On appeal to this court, we review whether there is sufficient credible evidence in the record to uphold the findings of the Law Division, not the municipal court. State v. Johnson, 42 N.J. 146, 162 (1964). On issues of law, our review is de novo. State v. Brown, 118 N.J. 595, 604 (1990). However, like the Law Division, we defer to the credibility determinations of the municipal court. State v. Cerefice, 335 N.J.Super. 374, 383 (App. Div. 2000).
We first address defendant's double jeopardy argument. The Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment provides, "[n]or shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb[.]" The analogous New Jersey constitutional provision states, "[n]o person shall, after acquittal, be tried for the same offense." N.J. Const. art. I, ¶ 11. The Double Jeopardy Clause protects against a second prosecution for the same offense. North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. 711, 717, 89 S.Ct. 2072, 2076, 23 L.Ed.2d 656, 664-65 (1969); State v. De Luca, 108 N.J. 98, 102, cert. denied, 484 U.S. 944, 108 S.Ct. 331, 98 L.Ed.2d 358 (1987).
Here, defendant's entire double jeopardy argument rests on a thirty-eight year old Law Division case, State v. O'Keefe, 135 N.J.Super. 430 (Law Div. 1975), which we initially note is not binding on this court. Nevertheless, we find O'Keefe readily distinguishable from the present matter.
In O'Keefe, the defendant was charged with operating a motor vehicle with a revoked license. Id . at 434. As the municipal prosecutor was about to rest his case, the municipal court judge informed the prosecutor that he had failed to submit evidence that defendant knew that his license had been revoked, a necessary element of the offense. Ibid. Over the defendant's objection, the judge continued the case to permit the prosecutor to investigate this fact. The defendant appealed, arguing that, under the circumstances, a two-week continuance after the State was about to rest without having proven an element of its case, constituted double jeopardy. Ibid. On de novo appeal, the Law Division accepted the defendant's argument and reversed his conviction, noting that it was inexcusable neglect for the municipal prosecutor not to have investigated an essential element of the offense. Id . at 438.
In this matter, the first adjournment that occurred after the case had started was due to the municipal court waiting for the outcome of Holland. This adjournment was reasonable, as Holland could have changed the outcome of the case. The next adjournment occurred due to the mistaken belief of the officer who administered the Alcotest that he had forgotten to bring necessary documents with him. Finally, the last adjournment was granted due to the officer who administered the Alcotest arriving late for court.
Defendant has failed to provide a convincing argument on how her right against double jeopardy was violated. Defendant was not tried more than once for the same offense. Unlike O'Keefe, the municipal court judge did not notify the prosecutor that he failed to prove a necessary element of the charge. Municipal courts in this State are very busy, and sometimes adjournments are necessary due to the scheduling demands of the courts and the attorneys who appear there. Although the handling of this case was certainly not optimal, we discern no valid basis for defendant's claim that her right against double jeopardy was violated.
We now turn to defendant's argument that her right to a speedy trial was violated due to the multiple adjournments. We do not overturn a trial court's decision on a speedy trial claim unless it is "clearly erroneous." State v. Tsetsekas, 411 N.J.Super. 1, 10 (App. Div. 2009).
A defendant has a constitutional right to a speedy trial. U.S. Const. amend. VI; N.J. Const. art. I, ¶ 10. In Barker v. Wingo, 407 U.S. 514, 530, 92 S.Ct. 2182, 2192, 33 L.Ed.2d 101, 117 (1972), the United States Supreme Court delineated four factors a court must evaluate to determine whether a defendant's right to a speedy trial has been violated: (1) "Length of delay[;]" (2) "the reason for the delay[;]" "the defendant's assertion of his right[;]" and (4) "prejudice to the defendant."[2]Here, we reject defendant's contention that the totality of these factors weighs in her favor.
As to the first factor, the length of the delay was approximately fifteen months. Although this was a lengthy delay, it does not in and of itself constitute a violation of defendant's right to a speedy trial. Additionally, as noted previously, municipal courts experience a high volume of cases, and lengthy delays are sometimes unavoidable due to extenuating circumstances.
As to the second factor, the court must evaluate whether the adjournments were "reasonably explained and justified." State v. Detrick, 192 N.J.Super. 424, 426 (App. Div. 1983). The first two adjournments were certainly justified, as the municipal court was awaiting our decision in Holland, which, as noted previously, could potentially have changed the outcome of the case. The second two adjournments were caused due to the mistakes of the testifying police officer. First, the municipal court granted an adjournment because the officer claimed that he did not have a document he needed to testify. Second, the municipal court granted an adjournment because the officer appeared too late for court. Although the officer later discovered that he did not have the document he thought he needed, we determine that the two adjournments were reasonably explained and justified.
As to the third factor, it is undisputed that defendant raised her speedy trial right to the municipal court and again to the Law Division.
Finally, as to the fourth factor, we note that prejudice can be found from a variety of factors including "employment interruptions, public obloquy, anxieties concerning the continued and unresolved prosecution the drain on finances and the like"
State v Farrell 320 N.J.Super. 425 446 (App Div 1999) (internal quotation marks and citations omitted) Here as to prejudice defendant merely complains of "anxiety of having a DWI charge pending for well over a year" We are not persuaded by this claim of prejudice On balance after considering the Barker factors we agree with the Law Division that defendant's right to a speedy trial was not violated

New Mexico has been bilingual for a long, long time because it was a Spanish colony before, during and after the 13 British Colonies.
The oldest US capital city is Santa Fe. Get real peeps; there is no ONE language. BOZO voters in MO said all public meetings are to be conducted in English. I'm waiting for some fool to use a Latin phrase or other language other than English……….. Siento pero hay que hablar englés solamente. pendejo……….
Santorum is so ignorant! There is not any states where everyone speaks only English! The republicans extreme right wing has a hate machine so big that wants to force a state church, and makes many people personas non gratis.
This extreme faction want a regime of hatred, lies and discrimination. It has made in-roads into the main republican party and faux news is it's mouthpiece.
Faux "news" is tea-bag central spreading lies and misrepresentations to the "no-think" people who just swallow it whole.
We must keep the Democrats in office so this does Not happen.
Liberals often represent the teachings of Jesus much more than this regime.
Liberals love this country. Liberals do Not consider certain groups as lower or lesser than themselves.
Liberals want to help the poor and middle class. faux news have convinced people that they are Supposed to support the 1% and the ruling by corporations!
Siento pero hay que hablar inglés solamente. pendejo……….
Having all Puerto Ricans learn English would probably be good for their economy. But not if the motivation for it is racist.
As for Santorum, I'm horrified that ANYONE thinks he's a good candidate for ANYTHING. (I helped vote him out of the Senate and proud of it.)

DevCon 2015. Интервью с Алексеем Акимовым
Authentication and Authorisation can be tricky, with many different methods of performing similar tasks and it can be hard to figure out what's best for your projects. It gets even trickier when you start thinking about how to authorise cross platform applications including web and apps (and now with Xamarin thrown in, it's even murkier!). Throw in WebAPI2 on the other side and it's starting to become unclear how to make a great experience for developers and end users alike. In this session Jordan will demonstrate how to build a centralised authentication system that supports web and apps, passing claims around all over the place using Json Web Tokens ending up in a WebAPI2 based API site. The session will investigate a range of concepts from web to app to API, including best practices, Autofac powered filters, OWIN and other cool concepts that your services need!Any sample code, video, or other supporting content for this presentation (if available for this session) is loaded in the zip file.
