text:
From the acclaimed author of Revealed comes a tale of first loves and second chances. Lady Jane Cummings is certain that her summer is ruined when she is forced to reside at isolated Merrymere Lake with her reckless brother and ailing father. Her fast-paced London society is replaced with a small town grapevine. But one bit of gossip catches Jane's attention- rumors that the lake's brooding new resident is also an elusive highwayman. Jane must face the much discussed mysterioso after he saves her brother from a pub brawl. She immediately recognizes him from London: Byrne Worth, war hero and apparent hermit-whom she finds strangely charming. The two build a fast friendship, and soon nothing can keep this Lady away from Merrymere's most wanted. Convinced of his innocence, Jane is determined to clear Byrne's name-and maybe have a little fun this summer after all.
From Eloisa James's "READING ROMANCE" column on Barnes & Noble Review
Courtship may seem to have no resemblance to preschool, but in fact, in both cases fairly ungovernable forces are corralled by rules that dictate everything from the first canoodle to safe sex (or, if you're a four-year-old, crayons and tantrums). "Don't Sleep With Your Boss" is probably the most important, though if you happen to be a Regency miss, you should adhere to a bigger decree: "Don't Sleep with Anyone." In short, historicals forbid unmarried sex, and contemporaries forbid sex that overlaps with work. While the contrast offers fascinating fodder for cocktail party conversation, the result is a raft of terrific romances in which the couples in question break the most important rules. They sleep with the wrong people, at the wrong time, and without (to put it formally) the benefit of matrimony.

Army blows up suspect car
British Army bomb disposal experts carried out a controlled explosion on a car abandoned outside a police station in the North.
The vehicle was left outside the New Barnsley station in west Belfast last night - the province's latest security alert this week.
About 100 families were evacuated from their homes because of the alert. Police have not said if a bomb was inside the car or if a warning was given.
Yesterday a booby trap bomb was found under a soldier's car in Bangor, Co Down.
Army bomb disposal officers carried out a series of controlled explosions on the device outside the home in the seaside town's Chatsworth area.
And members of the public narrowly escaped injury on Tuesday morning when a car bomb exploded outside a police station in Derry.
A taxi driver had been hijacked in the city and forced to drive his car to the station after a device containing 200lbs of homemade explosive was loaded on board.
Politicians and police have condemned the incidents.

First Impressions
Here's my first impressions of the game. Have to say, that I'm somewhat dissapointed.
+ Runs smoothly (All max: Risen +60FPS, Gothic 3 ~30 FPS)
+ No bugs
+ Nice UI
+ Flexible movement
+ Good voice-overs
+ Gothic II -feeling
- Nothing new here… yet(?)
- Average graphics. Even 3 yeards old Gothic 3 looks prettier! (Thanks to XBox360)
- Combat gives no real space for tactics. (Thanks to XBox360)
- Feels very easy. (Thanks to XBox360)
- World seems small-ish.
- Not so open-end world.
- Slow-motion spiderman jumps.
My hate against console gaming can be blur the vision since most my minuses comes from there. AND these are just my first impressions after a hour of gameplay. The game kind of feels like Gothic
Feel free to add your impressions of the game.
I'm beginning to enjoy it. At the moment I don't get quests all the time from everybody everywhere anymore, and instead of playing the secretary* I can actually focus on the game.
It took me a while getting used to the new species, finding my way through the landscape, knowing when and how to attack - in other words to feel at ease, at home, in Risen.
But now I have a crossbow - at last! O, how I loved the archery in Gothic! And I'm beginning to enjoy combat. The crossbow helps me to identify enemies from a safe distance, a feature that I like very much, and now I am able to hurt/kill instead of getting killed rather quickly. With sword and shield I was often too weak. So my mood's rising. I take the crossbow, I aim, I shoot - I cheer. Voila. :) Okay, most of the time several bolts are needed before victory can be proclaimed and reloading takes quite some time, but I'm only a beginner. Trouble is the opponents, they rarely come alone, usually two or three at a time. But it forces me to be creative - o, what fun I have - yes, with a sword and a crossbow I'm finally getting those bleep bast-bleep-ds!
O and do try to take a bath when you'll get the chance, I thought it was very funny.
*in case one of you does not know: I get no quest information in my Journal. See other thread.
Omega, why don't write everything yourself instead of using journal?
That is what she means when she says she is being a secretary…..she writing all the time.
I will only mention one thing in my first impression…….ghouls……..OMFG ghouls! If you are curious, go into the mine in the swamp near Luis. You WILL die very quickly, but OMFG they are badass ;)
Ay, I have been writing all the time, got myself some callosity… ;)
I am sneaking and thieving around now. Got myself an excellent outfit that way, so I'm better protected. Hm, maybe I'll finally be able to kill those creatures you're talking about. :)
Here is an easy way to the other thread, just click the arrow:
I'm playing the whole day - looks like Gothic, sounds like Gothic, plays like Gothic - no bugs so far.
Good performance on my 1 year old system under WinXP:
Dual Core 8400
NVidia 8800
4GB Ram
playing every gfx-setting on high at 1280x1024
… must play on …
For Gothic veterans play the hard difficulty setting - it's easy enough.
my impressions
So far really enjoying it. Just hitting some NPC areas, about an hour in.
+ good voice acting
+ seems to run flawlessly in Windows 7 x64
+ nicely written dialog
+ smart quick bar only shows items that are assigned. If you have items in only slots 4,5, and 6, then you only see those three items, no empty boxes. Use up an item in a slot, and it disappears. I like it.
+ clouds are like Gothic 3, realistic and nicely animated
+ combat is very good IMO (so far melee only, getting a ranged weapon soon)
+ good music
+ Feels like Gothic.
+ Also doesn't feel like Gothic, something new
+ quick saving and loading saved games is quick
+ can cook food
+ just the right amount of challenge. you will find areas that are too high level for the early game, and just as easily circumvent them. (no level scaling obviously)
+ doesn't seem buggy so far
- graphics are underwhelming. as it's been said not as good as Gothic 3 even but definitely serviceable, and most won't mind. I don't that much.
- keys don't disappear after you use them
- saving (not quicksaving) requires unnecessary steps instead of naming/dating the save and putting you back into the game without extra keystrokes
- Edit: the ambient sounds cuts out for a split second about every 5 seconds, noticed at the shore and at the swamp, may happen everywhere. Seems like the audio loop doesn't restart seamlessly. Maybe Win7 issue only?
- looking at the sky saw some kind of graphical glitch appearing through the clouds a little. Unless there's supposed to be a structure up there
- no way to set mouse sensitivity in game?
(I did in Risen\data\ini\ConfigDefault.xml - set x and y lower
mouse sensitivity 0.5f - I used .2 might go lower still)
That's all I can think of right now. Overall, really getting into it.
I can't get Risen to run on my main PC, running Vista 32 Ultimate and my GTX 295 graphics card because I can't get past the DRM check… sigh
I have the same DRM check problem on my older WinXp computer (different make/model DVD Player as well)… however, if I QUICKLY double-click the Risen icon AFTER I get the dreaded, 'Insert Original Risen Disc' error message, oddly, the game starts.
First impressions of the actual game:
Runs great. Even on my older rig I get 30 fps with all graphics settings to max. I know a lot of people may be dissapointed with the somewhat dated graphics. But after G3 and it's endless sstttuuuttteriiinngg… I'm happy to have a game that just runs and streams the world well.
Saving/Loading are very quick. The UI is very elegant… unlike a previous poster I have no problems with my quest log… quests seem to be recording ok.
Exploring is fun and rewarding. If you look around corners you can get yourself some nice things early on.
Your character is very agile and moves more fluidly with the environment. Was playing G2 today and moving around is very 'stiff.'
I like the foilage fade they implemented, now when you're rummaging around in bushes you can see around your character a bit. Nice touch.
LIke the prior gothic games, the music so far is excellent. Though like another poster pointed out, you can tell when an ambient sound clip loops back to the start… especially noticable at the beach where you start.
It's all I can think of for now. Sure hope I can find some kind of solution to the DRM problem I'm having so I can play this on my main PC.
Finally got my hands on it. Played quite a while, joined up with the Don. Enjoying it a whole lot so far. I like pretty much everything about it, except a few things:
- Ugly heads. I don't mean "people who look ugly", I mean graphically ugly heads. Some of them are just plain aweful.
- Takes ages to get proper armor. Paying 500g for Workers Clothing? Don't think so. I already have 30 talent points waiting for me that I can't spend because the trainers are too expensive. So far, I've spent quite a few points in strength, so the strength stat is getting very expensive to level up (trainers get more and more expensive as you progress).
- Nothing at all new. This is not a bad thing really, but it might become an issue if PB decides to continue using this recipe - 3DO and the M&M brand ended up suffering because they were getting behind in terms of innovation (partly, at least), then tried (and failed) to make up for it in M&M9. For now though, this recipe is working wonders in Risen - finally PB gets to show just how good they are. They needed this reputation boost, and I have no doubt that Risen will restore the faith of many fans (and hopefully create many new fans). Then they can worry about changing the recipe a bit to seem more refreshing.
The best thing so far is the combat system. I love it. All melee fighting styles look and feel great, with dodging, parrying/blocking, various attacks and combos. I spent quite a few reloads trying to beat Brogar in the arena, but it was very satisfying to finally beat him.
At any rate, I'm at work now, will go all out in the weekend and post more as I get further into the game.
PS. Risen has the coolest staff fighting I've ever seen in a game. Very martial-art-movie-like. Looks amazing. In fact, I regret not sticking with the Inquisition at this point, and look forward to focusing on staff fighting.
next time. I do hope they learned their lesson from G3 and don't bite more than they
can chew again
hearing it from the veterans. My greatest prerelease question mark for this game
allayed right there :)
Yes and ranged combat pretty nice as well.
After spending some time in one of the camps, there are some dialog interactions that are an absolute mess as the player can say things in the wrong order before quests are given or say to an NPC something is solved when it's not… I suppose depending on who you talk to in what order it probably won't be noticeable to everyone but it can get kinda wacky. Especially involving
Brogar and Sam
And I did get a 'insert proper dvd' error (I'm sleepy can't remember the error exactly) - I took it out and put it back in and was able to start the game. Hope I don't get any DRM issues.
Yes, I got that as well (Sam/Brogar), but the quest wasn't solved by the strange dialogue. You solve it later on, and get a proper finish to it.
I agree it was somewhat odd though.
My turn. :)
From the demo…
Ran very smooth for me at 1280x1024, with all options on high and max anistropy. I like the graphics, I think they're on par with Gothic 3, just a different style.
I agree that the jump animation was poorly done, he looks like he's soaring through the air. I'm glad to see a climb animation though.
Character models are pretty average, nothing great, but not terrible either. Animation is very good imo.
Disappointed that they couldn't come up with some better names for some of the plants. How many times is PB gonna use the Healing Plant/Healing Herb/Healing Root scheme?
Couldn't really form an opinion on combat from the demo. Early impression was that it starts out a lot easier than Gothic 1-2. I'm thinking about playing on "hard"
when I get the full game.
Anyone else notice those moth creatures sound almost exactly like dying scavengers from Gothic 1-2?
Where's the meat in my frying pan?
Glad you mentioned jumping. Am I the only one that experiences jumping as.. "sluggish" (lack of a better word)? When I explored in Gothic 1 and 2, I always felt I moved around with high accuracy, and the jumping was responsive - in Risen it's somewhat slow and, indeed, seems like he's floating a bit through the air. Not as bad as Oblivion, where jumping in 3rd person looked redicilous (the character was sliding through the air as if the air was ice), but certainly not as good as G1 or 2.
Of course, this is a minor issue, and certainly not something that'll ruin my overall experience. So far, it's by far the best RPG in 2009 for me. Will be interesting to see how AP and DA:O compare to it (something tells me Risen will end up being my fav. of 2009 - yes, I'm that satisfied at this point).
Definitely enjoying the game so far. This game feels more Gothic III than the actual Gothic III…
I have played quite a bit, and have completed all the quests for
the Don
Seriously though, the things that I had to do for the bandits made me feel so dirty and evil… They are more hypocritical than they think too. They say The Order collect taxes, and they don't, but instead they charge protection money… They say that they give people more freedom, but in reality they just offer a mob like dictatorship…
Though there are couple pretty stand up guys in the bandits, I hope I will get an option to not kill them later…
I do have few nit to pick though.
- Has anyone figured out how to unlock the key binding for some of the buttons?
- Combat is fine, and actually engaging, but I wish the camera followed the main character faster, and that there is a way to bind side stepping to to keys.
- I prefer the jumping animation in Gothic II. In this game (and most recent 3rd person RPGs like Divinity 2) jumping has too much of a "floating in air" feel. (It has a "String-fu" feel)
- Is it just me or are the female characters' head to body ratio bit off? Their heads are all disproportionally small-ish. It is esp. noticeable for the
wife of the Don
- Some funny graphical glitches, like "rotating" heads. Or NPCs getting stuck in a animation loop.
But I am really nitpicking here. The game thus far is everything that I had hoped. A little advice, if you ever jump into something and get stuck save and reload, and you should be able to get out eventually.
You can rebind some but not all keys. Double click the one you want to change and you will get popup telling you to now hit the new key you want to use. I remapped the spacebar to draw/stow my weapon(I think G3 was like I have it now) because I kept jumping like an idiot every time I wanted to put away my weapon after a kill :P
Been playing game since last night :-)
Not much to add, but my performance concerns were completely unfounded - so much for taking what people say at face value ;-)
I have a 2.4 Ghz core 2 duo, 8800GTX, 4GB ram Vista- 32bit - runs very smoothly at 1600x1200 with everything maxed out. Hardly any load time - a very brief jerk and then the next area is ready - awesome.
The game plays much like the previous gothic titles - which I like. I also noted the dated graphics, but there are def improvements over G3 in terms of performance and that incredibly annoying moving line on your horizon (view distance related) - the DOF effect is a bit overdone, but there are no really artifacts to bug me so I'm happy. There are some minor clipping issues 9I fell through a wall once :-o) but other than that I have not noticed much.
I do think they were a bit stingy with money - took me ages - and may a painful bruising - before i had enough money to get any protective armour! No stun-lock, but seems harder to hit things (well, at low level anyway - back-pedalling doesn't always work). Have to find new exploits ;-)
Anyway, my initial frustration has given way to enjoyment.
I like it much better than the first 3 - seems less punishing. Like the new inventory. Am a bit desperate for stuff so might have to learn some thievery!
The scale of the first 3 was too overwhelming for me so never finished them, with time commitments - however this seems more manageable (possibly!).
Love the nice feeling that there is no random and levelled loot, all loving hand placed! (which is correct isn't it?)

text: I've read that the San Angel Inn restaurant will still be open during the big rehab building of a new restaurant....is this true?? I'm not sure how it can be true if they're building a new indoor waterside restaurant....wouldn't this HAVE to close the current indoor waterside restaurant? I want to make my reservations for the end of August, but I'm afraid to make a ressie there and then find out it is closed and no other table service restaurant will be available on such short notice. And if it really IS open, any idea how affected it will be by construction? Would it be really unpleasant to eat there with such an affected atmosphere? Anyone have any inside info? Thanks!

How to Survive a Peer Review
If you're like me–and heaven help you if you are–you like to get occasional feedback on your current project just to see if it's as wonderful as you think, or if it would be well-received, or to garner some much-needed encouragement. I thrive on the encouraging words of others; they spur me to write more and write more often. However, I get slapped with "Your writing is great, but . . . " so often that I spend way too much time wound-licking and not enough correcting my errors.
I admit that I tend to submit my work for review too early, something I wouldn't recommend to just anyone. I do it because someone else can catch things I'm not seeing, and the sooner I discover the problem the sooner I can fix it without having to do a major re-write. Since I write by the seat of my pants, fresh eyes on my work are necessary. But don't be fooled–the reviews can also be painful.
Free peer review sites are wonderful primarily because they are free (there are tons of them in cyberland; one choice is AuthorNation). But they also come with built-in hazards: too many people saying different and sometimes conflicting things, too many who are honing their critiquing abilities at your expense, too many who don't know how to express themselves without being rude, and way too few who actually know what they're talking about.
Here is what I've learned from being a peer-review junkie:
1. Be gracious. The people who are honing their skills, who are learning how to write and how to critique, may not be the best sources of advice, but they are readers: Readers know what they like and what they don't. Since they're the stuff an author's bank account is made of, it isn't wise to blow them off–they may have a point you shouldn't miss. Always be thankful for the time a person spends reading your work.
2. Put on your Teflon jacket. Like those who are honing their skills, those who are seemingly rude often have a point worth heeding. Lick your wounds if you must, but spend time analyzing what they wrote to see if they've given you some roses among the thorns.
3. Stick your ego in your pocket. This pearl of wisdom came from my writing buddy and critique partner, K.M. Weiland, and really should've been #1 on this list. If you view the words of a critique through the eyes of your ego, you'll never grow as an author. The craft of writing is never learned entirely. It's honed over the years, it's organic in its changes, but it's never fully mastered. Even the best of authors find ways to make themselves better.
Peer reviews are necessary. They can make the difference between a well-written book and a passable one--between one accepted by an agent/publisher and one destined for the self-pub route. I advise having your project subjected to review and critique, but let me remind you: Always be thankful for the time a person spends reading your work.

Great article. Receiving crits is one of those oh-so-necessary, but often oh-so-cringe-worthy, parts of writing. It's a necessary evil. I'm endlessly thankful for faithful crit partners, who are willing to be brutally honest with me.ReplyDelete
Excellent article.ReplyDelete
I agree with it whole-heartedly.
One thing that I would add to it is to avoid using friends and family members as critiquers. They tend to tell you what they think you want to hear out of fear of hurting your feelings.
As an interesting side note - I gave a copy of my novel "Living the Dream" to a newspaper reviewer once. After two months I emailed him asking about his progress. He told me that the book "wasn't his cup of tea" and hadn't finished it and therefore never written a review.
I could be wrong - but isn't a reviewer's job to read the entire book and write his review - god or bad?
This is exceptional advice.ReplyDelete
And I'd also like to mention that despite any drawbacks with sites like Author Nation, you meet some great people and wonderful resources.
You'll get a feel very quickly for those who can offer useful feedback verses those whose insecurities prevent them from giving constructive criticism.
I'm not sure about the newspaper reviewer, but I think they get to pick and choose what to write about. However, saying it wasn't "his cup of tea" is an issue of style and taste. You might want to submit it to people who have reviewed the work most similar to yours.
I know there are certain genres that I just can't evaluate because I just don't have anything intelligent to say not being well read in them.
@K.M. Weiland: "oh-so-cringe-worthy" is sooo right!ReplyDelete
@Tim: No kidding! Your mom and your friends are going to love everything you write. They're great for encouragement, but turn to critique partners for truth and advice! (As for the reviewer, unless you were paying him to review your book, he isn't obligated to read it.)
@C.E. Bailey: Yes--there are drawbacks to all the sites, but you do meet some terrific people. And you do get a feel for folk's expertise pretty quickly!
It can certainly be difficult to swallow our pride when it comes to our precious writing, but developing a thick skin and listening will only help us improve. Wonderful article!ReplyDelete

It's New Year's Eve at the zoo, your neighbors are going crazy with fireworks, and the giraffes are spooked. What do you do?
At Amersfoort Animal Park in the Netherlands, staff tune into Radio 2, a public radio station that plays pop music, and crank up the volume.
According to Agence France-Presse, the Dutch celebrate New Year's Eve "by forking out vast amounts of money on fireworks in a pyrotechnics frenzy that turns some city streets into virtual battlefields."
The five giraffes at Amersfoort zoo are understandably rattled.
Spokesperson Josien van Eijk told Agence France-Presse that the zoo had tried various things to get the giraffes to chill out, but pop music was the winner.
"We found that pop music works best to calm the animals down and the bangs become more background noise," she said.

Many pet owners in the Netherlands drug their animals to keep them calm, AFP said.
To crack down on the fireworks extravaganza, authorities have set a limit of 22 pounds of fireworks per person.
Last year, some $84 million in fireworks were sold ahead of New Year's celebrations, DutchNews.nl said.

When those celebrating a particular culture IE: 'cultural appreciation' are falsely accused of roll eyes…"cultural appropriation" and branded as "racist".
A university has banned students from wearing sombreros after they deemed the Mexican hats to be 'racist'.
The student union (SU) at the University of East Anglia ordered staff at Pedro's Tex-Mex Cantina in Norwich to stop handing out the free sombreros at a fresher's fair in a bid to boost business.
Officials at the university believe that it would be "offensive" for anyone who is not Mexican to be wearing the traditional headwear.
They say the restaurant broke an advertising policy that states: "Discriminatory or stereotypical language or imagery aimed towards any group or individual based on characteristics will not be permitted as part of our advertising."
Campaigns and Democracy officer Chris Jarvis told student newspaper The Tab: "At the SU we want all members feel safe and accepted, so at all events we try to ensure that there is no behaviour, language or imagery which could be considered racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic or ableist."
He added: "We know that when it comes to cultural appropriation the issues can sometimes be difficult to understand and many don't realise that they may be about to cause offence or break a policy."
Mexican souvenir vendors did not get the 'whites wearing sombreros is racist cultural appropriation' memo.
And neither did the British Mexican Society.
The British Mexican Society said they "applauded" any business for trying to drum up business.
Yesterday Pedro's Norwich (Pedro's Tex-Mex Cantina) responded to the controversy on Facebook:
'We don't hate, we celebrate.'
For anyone concerned about recent publicity, we just wanted to let you know that we are a fun loving restaurant serving Tex-Mex food, we are proud of our party atmosphere. Our restaurant is decorated with items brought back by our founders from all over the world, including sombreros which have been part of our service for over 20 years. These are traditional dress, and as a Mexican restaurant, in no way are we disparaging Mexican culture, only celebrating it. We would never intend any negative message to be taken from our hats.

"It's never called "cultural appropriation" when you wear a Viking costume, a kilt or other traditional "white" garb…"

TONY Mowbray paid tribute to strike star Marvin Emnes after the Dutchman's clinical hat-trick steered Middlesbrough into the second round of the Carling Cup last night.
Emnes followed up his first-half brace with a second-half penalty against 10-man Walsall to take his tally to four already this season after he also netted on the opening day of the Championship season.
Boro's progression extends their sequence of not having exited in the first round of the League Cup since 1985, but for League One Walsall it now represents their worst ever run in the competition having been eliminated at the first hurdle for a fifth successive season.
Mowbray enthused: "Emnes has the talent and technique to get the goals for us.
"We have to get him in the right positions to score for us and his second, even if it was a great ball from Justin Hoyte, was what we want to see more of.
"He showed he has that technique to score goals and it's that sort of talent tha makes the difference."
Mowbray made five changes to the XI who drew 2-2 with Portsmouth on Saturday – Danny Coyne starting between the posts to make his 500th career appearance.
But it was Saddlers counterpart Dean Smith who was forced into an early reshuffle after just 12 minutes when midfielder Adam Chambers, match-winner on the opening day against former club Leyton Orient, was dismissed for a two-footed challenge on Richard Smallwood.
And it took Boro little time to capitalise as Emnes fired a low effort into the bottom corner from 18 yards after the hosts had failed to deal with a ball from the right.
Emnes doubled both his and Boro's advantage after 37 minutes, converting Justin Hoyte's left-wing cross in style.
And the tie was over as a contest seven minutes after the break as Smallwood was brought down in the area by Kevan Hurst, leaving Emnes to convert his third from the spot and walk home with the match ball.
Meanwhile, Mowbray is eager to keep hold of defender Matthew Bates despite interest from Premier League newcomers Swansea City.

It's not a staggering 27 lakh ornament; rather it was just a sweet request from Prabhu Deva who insisted Sameera to get her bags packed and leave to Mumbai to celebrate her Birthday (December 14th, 2010).
The lady looked very excited as she headed to spend the special day with her parents and close friends back in her hometown.
The actress is currently engaged with an untitled flick alongside Vishal said to be a remake of the Telugu hit Souryam .The movie is being directed by Prabhu Deva.
Sameera has been climbing the ladder strongly with some good offers under her belt.She was last seen in Aasal and now she is acting in another promising project Gautham Menon's Nadunisi Naaygal.

Minor speeding on scooter injures cop
A head constable's leg was fractured when a minor boy on a scooter hit him in south Delhi, police said Monday.
The boy, a Class 10 student and a resident of Govindpuri, was Sunday riding a scooter near Nehru Place when the incident took place. He was caught soon after he hit traffic policeman Bhim Singh.
"The scooter was found to be in the name of the errant minor's father," police said.
"The boy jumped a red light at a traffic signal. When the traffic policeman tried to stop him, the boy got scared and hit him, before driving over his leg," a Delhi police officer said.

Unanswered: Dataproject continuous form button issue
I'm having difficulty with a nested form in an application that was converted from a standalone Access db to a dataproject. The application has a form containing a nested subform and the subform is a continuous type showing a list of related records. The continuous subform has a button on each row which opens another form to display related records. All of this works fine in Access but in the dataproject clicking the button allways opens the related form and displays records related to the first line on the continuous subform. The code attached to the button is very simple (included at the end of post). It seems like the problem is related to different form behavior in the dataproject. In Access cicking the button makes the row the current record (you can watch the record selector move to the row with the button you clicked). In the dataproject version, even if you have already selected the row you want to work with, clicking the button to open the form causes the selected record to allways revert to the first listed row on the continuous subform (hence the related form allways opens displaying those records). Any ideas?
Button code:
Private Sub Command16_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command16_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "routing_main"
stLinkCriteria = "[id]=" & Me![Text14]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit Sub
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command16_Click
End Sub

Yes, looks like the project is not seeing the open arguments. In that case, try using the filter method instead and remember to turn the "FilterOn" property to be true. Or try the Where option of Open form.

Thanks for the reply. But I think it's more a form behavior issue in the dataproject since even if I set the button on the continuous form to simply open a message box displaying the current record index value it allways defaults to the first displayed record. For example, if the continuous form is showing 4 rows with index vals of 1,2,3 and 4 and I click the botton on the button on row three (index value of three) you can see the active record indicator revert to the top of the rows on the continuous form and the message box will display "1" (the index value for the first row listed on the conintuous form. This same form works fine in a regular Access DB. I was just hoping that someone had seen this issue before and would have a fix or work-around. (I am still trying to figure out what to do).

Mumbai, India (PressExposure) January 17, 2012 -- The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) today announced that it is inviting stakeholders to provide input to a set of technical papers focusing on existing and potential technologies for low carbon growth in the Indian cement industry. The initiative is led by the WBCSD's Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI) and the International Energy Agency (IEA). It is supported by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group.
Stakeholder input will be fed into the Low Carbon Technology Roadmap for the India Cement Industry, a ground-breaking study that was announced last year. Stakeholders are invited to provide input to a set of 29 technical papers focusing on existing technologies which can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cement manufacturing processes by, for example, increasing energy efficiencies and use of alternative fuels, and identifying future technologies with high potential for delivering low carbon growth in the future. The technical papers also outline the policy and financial barriers which prevent widespread uptake of such technologies by the industry.
Philippe Fonta, Managing Director, WBCSD Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI) and Energy Efficiency in Buildings (EEB), said: ―I'm delighted to see the technical papers now online for public consultation. They have incorporated sound technical input from experts within the country's industry, from equipment suppliers, technology developers and consulting organizations. They represent a valuable contribution from the CSI members in India to the national cement industry more broadly, and I hope this will lead to a greater understanding within and outside of the industry to emissions reductions potential for cement production in the near and longer-term.
The technical papers were developed by two leading organizations with extensive experience in such technologies: the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and the National Council for Cement and Building Materials (NCB). They have brought together their internal expertise to address technology background, potential for emissions reductions through implementation of each technology, costs involved and barriers to further development or dissemination.
As part of a stakeholder dialogue with key government, regulatory and financial institutions that can influence update of the technologies now and in the future, an online consultation will commence from today for a period of five weeks.
Alongside the Roadmap development, IFC's support has enabled the widening of the project's coverage and scope, to allow the customization of the Roadmap at selected plants of CSI member companies in India. CSI member companies in India represent approximately 54% of the country's cement production. This will help identify where
specific investments related to technology can lead to increased greenhouse gas emissions reduction.
"Pursuing a climate-friendly approach to growth is a sustainable model for development, especially for many South Asian countries that are vulnerable to climate change impacts. The Technology Roadmap is an example of how the private sector players can come together, to support India's low-carbon development goals," said Anil Sinha, IFC Advisory Services General Manager for South Asia.
―This Roadmap is a unique initiative by CSI members in India to pursue low carbon growth. I strongly believe the stakeholder dialogue will help overcome policy and financial barriers which are deterrent to the speedy implementation of the technologies and will contribute to increasing energy efficiencies and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from cement production in India today and in the longer-term‖ said K S Venkatagiri, Principal Counsellor at the CII Green Business Centre.
Mr S Khan, Director, NCB states ―We feel great pleasure in announcing that NCB have helped produce a set of technology papers that targets CO₂ emission reductions in the Indian cement industry. These technology papers will surely help to develop a Roadmap for a low carbon footprint in the Indian cement industry. We thankfully acknowledge the cooperation provided by the Indian cement Industry and CSI members in particular during the preparation of technology papers.
The India Roadmap will be developed collaboratively by the WBCSD's CSI and the IEA, following the same elaboration process as the global Cement Technology Roadmap, developed in 2009. It will be led by CSI member companies in India which are: ACC Ltd, Ambuja Cements, HeidelbergCement India Ltd, Lafarge India Private Ltd, My Home Industries Ltd / CRH, Shree Cement, Shree Digvijay Cement Co Ltd - Cimpor Group, UltraTech Cement and Zuari Cement. The IEA will bring expertise in data analysis and modeling, and Roadmap development. Technical consultancy is being provided by the CII and NCBM. The global Cement Technology Roadmap 2009 is available at: http://www.wbcsdcement.org/technology.

The newest face of Yves Saint Laurent beauty products is significantly scruffier than those seen in previous campaigns. That's because it belongs to Stuart Pilkington, a former contestant on the ninth season of wildly popular Big Brother UK.
The reality star recently helped YSL launch the men's version of their Touche Eclat eyeliner at Selfridges department store, the star product from their full line which hopes to "encourage men to use cosmetics as a skin enhancer, rather than to create a full make-up look," according to MakeHerUp.com.
David Walker-Smith, director of beauty at Selfridges, revealed the store will sell the eyeliner for $45. "Men have gone from stealing beauty products from their wives and girlfriends to stocking up on their own," he said, adding, "They no longer consider them to decrease their male bravado."
Of course it was Jean-Paul Gaultier who has always been out in front of these trends, whether make-up or men in skirts, we're always up for another round -- especially if it means soon the streets will be filled with mopey, dark-eyed Jared Leto look-alikes.

The power of K. The Kardashian clan has been through plenty of headline-making ups and downs in the past few months, but in the first trailer for the upcoming season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the women of the family make it clear that family is what keeps them going.
"There's a lot of people telling me what to do," Kendall Jenner kicks off the season 12 clip in a voiceover. "And I can't let that get in the way of me and my family."
Kim Kardashian agrees, offering her own soundbite.
"The power of family really means everything," the mother of two says.
Khloé Kardashian then weighs in with her sage wisdom.
"We are sisters by blood but best friends by choice," she says. "I don't know how I would live my life without my family. It's the best support system in the world."
In the short clip, the girls are bombarded by paparazzi, take selfies together, and shed a few tears (in one quick snippet, Kourtney Kardashian and ex Scott Disick look like they're having an intense conversation; in another, family matriarch Kris Jenner is teary eyed.)
In this past year, Kourtney, 36, has split with Disick, 32; Kim, 35, has given birth to her second child, Saint, with husband Kanye West; Khloé, 31, has been by estranged husband Lamar Odom's side after he was hospitalized; Kendall, 20, walked in her first Victoria's Secret fashion show; and Kylie, 18, has made headlines with her off-and-on romance with boyfriend Tyga.
Check out the clip above to see what else Keeping Up With the Kardashians has in store for fans in season 12, when the reality show returns to E! later this year!

I'm getting used to all the noises of living in a city in a condo unit. Most of them I'm ok with, like we have lots of pigeons that hang out on the window sills and coo their little heads off and its kind of adorable. I love them. Except sometimes their coos sound like human mumbling noises which threw me for quite the loop a couple days ago, but I'm used to it now.
The people above us have two small children that I'm pretty sure are awful satan banshee creatures and their main ritual hour to yell and stomp is 7AM. This morning was NOT a pleasant one. However, they are moving out in the summer, and I also bought a giant jar of earplugs. THANK GOD.
Welp, back to Long Island, I have orders to pack up!

Original paper
The phytosociology of forest vegetation on Ulreung-do, Korea
Jong Won, Kim
Phytocoenologia Band 16 Heft 2 (1988), p. 259 - 281
36 references
published: May 17, 1988
DOI: 10.1127/phyto/16/1988/259
ArtNo. ESP024001602002, Price: 29.00 €
The forest vegetation of Ulreung-do, an island situated between the Korean peninsula and Japanese archipelago, was investigated phytosociologically. Beech (Fagus multinervis Nakai) forest represents the summergreen broad-leaved forest zone of the island and was identified as an endemic association for Fagus forest syntaxonomically. Although the island is small and narrow, there is a zonal distribution of three types of forest vegetation, the summergreen broad-leaved forest, the evergreen needle-leaved forest, and the evergreen broad-leaved forest. Their distribution patterns were illustrated by means of the ratio of evergreen species (Eg(t)) and summergreen species (Sg(t)) and the warmth index (WI) according to altitudinal changes. The vertical distribution of the Ulreung-do vegetation was scarcely correlated with any specific WI value (WI 85, 100) but preferably with local relief at its altitude.

There are so many different wine subscription services out there it can be difficult to decide between them as they all offer you the chance to try different wines on a regular basis so that you can find your favorites. The selections usually come from different regions but rather than having to travel to find them they are delivered straight to your door.
Best Wine Subscriptions
To find out which is the best there are quite a few factors you have to look into so that you can get the best value for your money.
All wine subscription services contrary to belief are not the same. It takes a lot of looking into small print to not only find out about the return policies but also the challenges around shipping. You have to start off first of all by looking at those that have great relationships with retailers, they will be able to answer your questions about the wine and tell you which ones are best for your palate rather than just random wines being sent to you. What you want as well as the wines themselves is background such as the region and the winemakers as well as discounts on any future orders. You should also have the power to cancel the subscription should you find that it is no longer for you rather than being held into a contract for a period of time. bear in mind that very few will allow you to send back wine that is not to your liking, so before choosing you will want to check that the company you subscribe with allows this.
If you are currently part of a wine subscription service that doesn't offer you at least a few of the things that a good wine subscription service should it's time to look elsewhere. Our favourite is the Gold Medal subscription service. They boast versatility and ensure that their wines suit both expert and novice wine lovers.
The Gold Medal wine subscription service has 23 years' experience as well as great feedback from their customers. The founders of the company focus on being consistent providing their subscribers with high quality wines that cannot be easily found. This gives you the chance to find new tastes from smaller individual and family owned wineries and before any of the wines are included in the subscription they are first tested by their team of experts and only the best get through.
As for the options for membership there are 6 to choose from and you can even add to your subscription foods which will allow you to taste goods from the same region as the wine you are sent. Included in the subscription is extensive information on the winery, winemaker and of course the region. In addition to this you also get a whole host of interesting facts and it all comes wrapped up in clever packaging making it ideal for gifting too. Even the box lid has been artist commissioned!
The amount of members shows how popular the subscription service is. It is most popular in members as well as gifting. There is even the option to cancel anytime you wish and no sign up costs so you are not bound to a contract. The wine itself and great customer service is what keeps their service so popular.

Orange Order's anger after hoax bomb left at hall sparks alert
A hoax bomb alert at an Orange hall in Co Fermanagh has been condemned as "malicious" by the institution.
The suspect device was discovered by a lodge member at the front door of Wattlebridge Orange hall, close to the Cavan border, on Friday afternoon, prompting a security alert.
Army bomb experts examined the item before declaring it to be an elaborate hoax.
Chief Superintendent Pauline Shields thanked local people and road users for their patience and co-operation during the security alert.
Stuart Brooker, Fermanagh county grand master of the Orange Order, accused those responsible of attempting to "intimidate" the local Protestant community.
"Lodge members feel extremely hurt to be targeted in such a malicious fashion," he said.
"They have been through all of this before during the height of the Troubles and were convinced such delinquency was wedded to the past. Regrettably, it would seem there remains a minority intent on causing disturbance and division."
Mr Brooker said, as the hall was relatively isolated, it could be deemed an "easy target".
"Those who skulk in the darkness and engage in such underhand activity fail to understand that the property is a vital social facility in the border area and is utilised by a number of groups," he added.
"The lodge membership reside on both sides of the border and are fully integrated in the local community."
This is the latest in a series of recent attacks on Orange halls.
At the start of May a Co Tyrone Orange hall was targeted for a third time in three months.
Around 14 windows were smashed and doors damaged at the Strawletterdallon Orange hall.
The building is situated near Newtownstewart, on the Plumbridge Road.
It was previously attacked twice in a two-day period in February, with doors and windows damaged.
An Orange Order spokesman said at the time that the hall had been vandalised by "bigots".
"Once again Strawletterdallon has been attacked by vandals who have nothing to offer society, only destruction and division," he said.
"The stark similarity to previous attacks indicates that the minority rump responsible have reverted to type, by returning to engage in their shameful sectarian criminality."
The PSNI said it was being treated as a hate crime.
