It was night and there was no moon.
Wang Lin lied on the bed in the back of the store. There was a jug of wine beside him. He picked up the jug and took a drink. Wang Lin could feel that in this past year, he has managed to get rid of his mentality as a cultivator and has become more like a mortal.
Take this for example: he rarely cultivates at all now, but that would have been impossible before. In those 400 years of escaping and killing, he almost always had his spiritual energy surging in his body and would use any spare time he could find to raise his cultivation level. His life was filled with deadly schemes and life threatening dangers. If he was a bit less careful, he would have died.
He had never before lied down like this and slept. He spent most nights cultivating.
That type of life was very exciting and filled with passion, but it was filled with regret. It had no balance. That life was missing something.
Now, there were no conflicts in Wang Lin's life. Although it was a bit boring, it was cleansing Wang Lin's soul.
Wang Lin felt very strange when he first noticed this feeling, but he gradually accepted it and continued living the life of a mortal.
He picked up the jug and downed a gulp. Then, he suddenly frowned.
At that moment, two cultivators arrived outside his store. Their two bodies floated toward his shop like ghosts. One of them waved his hand and Wang Lin's store's main door silently opened.
The two of them quickly entered. The door was closed by the wind.
Inside the shop, the two's eyes lit up as they looked at all of the carvings inside the shop. Their eyes were filled with terror, but that terror was soon replaced with endless greed.
"There are so many magic treasures!" One of the cultivators sucked in a cold breath of air. He grabbed one of the carvings and looked at it. His body trembled and he quickly threw the carving away.
The greed inside his eyes became even stronger. He waved his hand and all of the carvings on the shelves entered his bag of holding.
The other cultivator squatted down and searched through a box in the corner. Then, he let out a shout as he held an incomplete carving. His expression became strange as he felt a sweetness in his throat and coughed out a mouthful of blood.
He quickly threw away the carving in his hand and backed up as if the carving was an ancient beast.
In fact, it was no surprise he couldn't withstand the carving. This was an incomplete carving of Six Desire Devil Lord. Although it was incomplete, the spiritual pressure inside the carving was that of a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator. With this person's Core Formation cultivation, there was no way he could withstand it.
Good thing he quickly let go and the spiritual pressure of the carving hadn't truly awakened. He wouldn't have lost only a simple mouthful of blood otherwise.
As the wood carving fell, it was caught by a giant invisible hand, which placed it in Wang Lin's hand. Wang Lin walked out of the back room. He casually put the carving on a shelf, then took a gulp of wine and said, "That is a total of 4,520 gold. Pay up."
When Wang Lin appeared, the two suddenly stopped and stared at Wang Lin with horrified expressions.
In particular, the cultivator that was just injured by the spiritual pressure in the carving. His face was pale and his forehead was covered in sweat.
In their eyes, Wang Lin's appearance was too strange. Before the two of them entered the shop, they used their spiritual energy to check the inside. Although there was one person in the back room, it was only a mortal.
But now, the mortal in their eyes appeared silently before them. It was as if a bolt of lightning had just struck them, causing them to be terrified.
Adding to the wood carving magic treasures, even if the two of them were dumb, they would have realized that the person before them was a senior they couldn't afford to mess with.
The two of them looked at each other and respectfully said, "Greetings, senior. Juniors are disciples of the White Cloud Sect. Juniors have been rude and hope senior will forgive us."
Wang Lin plainly asked, "Do you have 4520 pieces of gold?"
The two of them looked at each other. They were cultivators, so if it was spirit stones, they would have some, but they really didn't have much gold used by mortals right now. Of course, if they were given time to prepare, they would be able to prepare 4000, or even 40,000.
Wang Lin realized what the two were thinking and sighed. He waved his hand and the bag of holding containing the carvings flew into his hand. He casually swiped his hand across the bag of holding and the owner of the bag forcibly swallowed a mouthful of blood.
The respect in the cultivator's eyes became even deeper as that swipe wiped out his divine sense from the bag.
Wang Lin shook the bag and all of the carvings flew back to their original places without any error. It was as if they were never moved in the first place
"Go back. When you come again, bring enough gold." With that, Wang Lin waved his hand and the bag of holding flew back to the cultivator. Then, the two of them were pushed by a powerful force toward the door.
When they were about hit the door, the door opened and the two of them were pushed out of the store.
This one push pushed them more than 10 kilometers before they finally stabilized themselves. Their eyes revealed unimaginable horror and shock. In their eyes, that youth's cultivation was too powerful for them to measure.
The two pondered a little and thought themselves to be very lucky. With that, they quickly left. These two cultivators were the two from the palace.
They noticed the abnormality in the carving, so they went and found Xu Tao, who was enjoying himself, and found out about this store. But after what just happened, they were simply too scared to have any more ideas about that store.
The two of them didn't know that Wang Lin had already left his divine sense on them. If they had any malicious thoughts about Wang Lin, they would be killed immediately.
In fact, if the two of them knew about Wang Lin, then they would feel extremely lucky. If it was the Wang Lin from one year ago, the only result of that situation would've been death.
Wang Lin sat inside the store. He drank a gulp of wine and sighed. "I haven't killed anyone in a year." With that, he walked back to the back room and went to sleep.
Time quickly passed and two years passed by. This was already the third year that Wang Lin had been at the capital.
Da Niu grew even taller and sturdier and more neighbors moved in. The Kong Fabric shop's owner died due to illness and the shop was sold to someone else.
Da Niu's parents' faces gained some light wrinkles. Although they were still young, they couldn't avoid the passage of time.
It is worth mentioning that during these two years, many of the neighbors had come to Wang Lin to talk about marriage, but they were rejected by Wang Lin each time.
The Xu family's second son had already gotten married and had a healthy baby. Xu Tao came back to pay his respects to Wang Lin. He gave Wang Lin 100 pieces of gold, saying it was from the prince.
Actually, in these two years, during each new year, Xu Tao would bring a lot of gold and silver. As for this matter, Wang Lin didn't reject him. He accepted it all.
Autumn passed and winter came. The sun came and went. During these past two years, Wang Lin saw the birth of the young and the death of the old. He felt very wistful.
In these two years, he had only cultivated twice. He no longer cared about his cultivation level and rarely checked it anymore. As for the red substance, only a thin layer remained. The rest had been condensed into three red beads, which were stored in his bag of holding.
According to his analysis, when the 4th bead is created, the red substance will be all gone.
The two cultivators from back then had only come once in these two years. After handing over a large amount of mortal gold, they took three wood carvings.
In these two years, Wang Lin's store had gained some fame in the Western part of the city. Although there weren't a lot of customers, it was still much better than his first year.
However, the most common visitors to Wang Lin's shop weren't mortals, but cultivators. Six out of ten people that came would be a cultivator.
Every cultivator that came would buy wood carvings with mortal gold. In these two years, he sold quite a few wood carvings and had gathered a lot of gold and silver.
The fact that there was someone amazing in the western part of the capital gradually gained some fame among cultivators.
Wang Lin's heart was still calm. What he wanted was still to experience the life of a mortal. The store was just a tool to experience it and the wood carvings were the same.
It was about to be a new year and the capital had become very lively. Wang Lin walked out of his store and sat down outside. His eyes were filled with longing.
This was the 3rd new year he had experienced since he arrived at the capital. Each time, this experience was different, except for one thing: the regret he felt toward his childhood.
Da Niu ran out from the ironworks shop from across the street with fireworks in his hand and happily played with them. Upon seeing Da Niu, happiness appeared in Wang Lin's eyes. Wang Lin had watched this kid grow up from an 11 year old kid to a 14 year old youth.
Last year, Da Niu was unable to refuse his dad anymore and began to learn ironworks. However, whenever he had time, he would come and watch Wang Lin make wood carvings.
Although Da Niu didn't come as often, the one jug of fruit wine a day never stopped.
Playing with the fireworks, Da Niu ran toward Wang Lin and sat down on the cold bench. He didn't seem to mind the cold. He winked at Wang Lin and said, "Uncle Wang, I heard from my dad a few days ago that shopkeeper Lu from the east side of the city wanted to marry his daughter to you. Why didn't you agree? I have secretly seen her before and she is very beautiful."
Wang Lin smiled. He rubbed Da Niu's head and said, "Uncle already has a wife."
"Ah? Really? How come I have never seen her?" Da Niu suddenly stood up. His face was filled with shock.
"She is in a very far away place, waiting for me. One day, I'll go and find her!" Wang Lin's voice was gentle as the image of a woman appeared in his mind.
Da Niu let out a mischievous smile. He said, "I understand. Uncle Wang, you came to the capital to make money so you can go back home to get married!"

Financial technology has been rapidly developing to accommodate the ever-evolving needs of people when it comes to financial services. Latest software innovations are being utilized in trading platforms by firms, exchanges, and brokerage houses. The most notable developments in financial technology concern speed of analyses and execution.
Why is Tech Innovation Important?
The competition in the trading field is fierce. For that reason, companies and brokerage houses push for innovations. They can give them a competitive advantage that would make them the preferred choice for investors. Platforms like Fintech Limited even derive their names from the portmanteau for financial technology to emphasize on the fact that the software has been developed according to latest trends.
Services that cannot acquire a competitive advantage in terms of financial technology fail to prosper. In most cases, this lack of competitiveness is represented by a falling behind on trends and developments. In these situations, the companies and brokerage houses that lack an advantage eventually get forgotten. The choice is to close operations or make an investment to increase the quality of the provided financial service.
Types of Financial Technology Advantages
There are several aspects in which online trading platforms aim to develop and excel. Financial technology has a lot of applications and a wide variety of dimensions.
1. Speed Excellence – one cannot be faster than the markets. But one can be faster than the competition. Algorithms optimized for speed allow traders to act faster than other people dealing with online investments, before sharp changes in market conditions occur. A competitive advantage at speed can help investors enhance their accuracy.
2. Machine Learning – intelligent algorithms that allow for the evolution of the software through machine learning help for the increase in accuracy. Smart algorithms will progressively develop as they get more and more information from the markets during the investment processes.
3. Assistance Capabilities – smart algorithms have helped for the introduction of assisting functions that can make the trading processes easier on any platform. Assistance capabilities allow investors with limited experience and knowledge join a trading world with lucrative opportunities.
How is Financial Technology Important for Trading?
Big businesses, hedge funds, and professional investors are no longer entitled to the world of trading. Online investments were made available for the ordinary person a few years ago with the help of software products like Fintech Ltd. Financial technology has found an important place in this field because through it developers of platforms and broker companies were able to optimize their services for people with limited knowledge and experience.
Speed of execution has given the ordinary trader an advantage in a field that is known for its volatility and value fluctuations. Machine learning and assistance and optimization features have provided for ease-of-access and an equal start in an industry known for its steep learning curve and huge requirements.
The Fintech Limited system for example provide top quality services for people with various skill sets. They have eliminated the need for proficiency and have given a chance for people to participate in a lucrative industry even if they lack some of the abilities and knowledge possessed by the professionals. In other words, the importance of financial technology is only going to increase and we are going to see more and more innovations.

It seems like everyplace I went this past weekend, there was an overwhelming presence in the background. A presence that lingered in every adult's mind. Eventually someone would blurt out something like "those poor families in Connecticut" or "Christmas just doesn't seem the same after Friday." There were probably thousands of ways it was expressed, but it was often accompanied with a tear, or a sigh or a very sad face and voice. And certainly mothers seemed to really feel the pain although fathers certainly did too.
Often the next line was "I don't know what we can do." I was always sad to hear that. I think charging in with some political action items at what was supposed to be a party would probably not be welcome. I left that for later, but will definitely follow up. Having watched this country radically change its course over the past forty years it is fairly clear it can be done and what needs to be done. We need to get an electorate that focuses on solving the problem of lack of control in our society. Enough, enough, enough with our slaughtering ourselves and especially our children on an altar of false liberty.
The one thing that all the recent mass murders had in common is not some sort of mental illness, but easy access to guns. And not just guns, but guns whose sole purpose is to kill people. You say it can't be done? Who in their right mind 40 years ago thought we would be as close as we are to doing away with Social Security? Or Medicare? Or that labor unions would be near extinction? Each of these issues was once upon a time thought to be untouchable, but now are very much on the hotseat of politics.
We as citizens need the political will to stop this slaughter. We need to see that our representatives know that if they stand up for the right thing they will be backed up.
By the way, none of the bill of rights has been found to be absolute in the courts over the centuries. Remember that you can't libel or slander folks under the right to free speech. The list goes on. The second amendment has its own qualifying language within the amendment. However, somehow the qualifying "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state" seems to have been plunked into dustbin of history.
Arming ourselves to the teeth makes about as much sense as more drunks behind the wheels of automobiles. Why shouldn't we all be able to drive drunk so we can avoid other drunk drivers?
And I don't believe the gun lovers really want arms every place as the answer to violence. If they did, there would have been an outcry for every person of color to arm themselves after Trevon Martin was shot to death unarmed by stalker George Zimmerman. I don't recall the NRA sending out any battle cry like that last March.
Time for common sense in America. So you want to live in a society where you fear that you may get caught in a crossfire between some mass murderer and a band of lone avengers? Do you want to live in a society where you can't even send your child to school, public or private, without fearing that they could be killed by someone on a mission? No other society even comes close to living with these fears and we should not either.

Ignore what's happening outside the window. Summer is definitely here, albeit a little late on the sunshine part.
Getting into the swing – or swim, as the case may be – of the season shouldn't be an excuse to bust out those faded, ill-fitting favourites you've been wearing since 2014.
Boardies have evolved. Thankfully, otherwise we might all still be swimming shorts that went so below the knee they may as well just be pants.
Get shorty
It's no secret that boardies have been regressing back to an era when they were both easier to swim in and more comfortable to wear in general.
"We see the best performance in slightly-above-the-knee options," says Sam Lobhan, Buying Manager and men's style hub Mr Porter. "Perhaps because this style is actually more flattering and in keeping with the broader trend of health and fitness."
And luxury brands are definitely pushing for an increasingly shorter leg – a nod to surf culture's ascendency during the '60s.
Prada, Dolce and Gabbana and newcomer on the scene Katama have avidly embraced this retro cut, albeit putting their own identity into the silhouette: Prada with a sport-like utilitarianism, Dolce rich with print and Katama with all the squeaky clean minimalism of an Ivy League rowing team.
Graphic content ahead
Jodhi Meares, founder of athleisure label The Upside, suggests that 2018 will be the summer men should embrace more graphic styles.
"Guys are getting more and more adventurous when it comes to print," says Meares. "Which is something we do love to see. While black shorts are always going to be a best-seller, already this season we've seen our guys going bolder with our yellow and turquoise based prints."
Whether this be Orlebar Brown's DIY photographic shorts, Vilebrequin's album covers or even The Upside's own south-of-the-border inspired prints, the general gist is the louder the better.
As a reformed child of the '90s, one of the best things about the latest trend in trunks is their versatility. Try getting into a half-decent pub in an old-school pair of Quiksilvers dropping down past your shins.
Nowadays, designs are multi-functional. What works in the water can just as easily be teamed up with a linen shirt and your favourite summer footwear (no thongs, never thongs) to set you up for an afternoon session of IPAs with your mates on some rooftop bar.
Ralph Lauren's vibrant pink might not be for everyone, but their preppy simplicity is perfect for this kind of multi-tasking.
So unless you're desperately trying to make long boardies a thing again, check out the gallery up top to see the best shorts to keep you cool this summer.

Marco and Alessio appear to have done a great job of building the cruiser of their dreams. The hull looks to be nicely faired with a beautiful standard of finish. They have modified the shape of my superstructure design, adding Italian flair. This is not surprising, considering the stylishly beautiful sports cars that are built by Italian factories. I remember that Marco asked me why I was rebuilding a British Lotus sports car and not an Italian Ferrari. Well, we can't make everybody happy.
To read the full story about their build, go to the "Alemar" blog, where you can also follow their sailing adventures. It is in Italian but this is easily translated if accessed through Google Chrome.
|Ready for launch.
|Nice standard of finish.
|About to get wet.
|Italian styling added to pilothouse roof.
|Waiting for her rig.
|Rig up, floating nicely.

DETROIT, March 11 (UPI) -- A mural by the reclusive artist Banksy, painted on a wall of an abandoned Detroit auto plant, will be sold to improve a local art gallery, its owner said.
The eight-feet-tall section of concrete wall, painted with a depiction of a boy holding a paint brush and can, and the slogan "I remember when this was all trees," is expected to sell for between $200,000 and $1.2 million, Carl Goines, the artwork's owner and founder of 555 Arts Gallery, said.
The mural was removed in 2010 from a nearby former Packard factory, where Banksy, the British graffiti artist, painted it. Taking the wall from the plant divided the Detroit art community with some calling it an act of preservation and others terming it opportunism, the Detroit News said Tuesday.
Goines eventually purchased the wall and mural for $2,500 from Romel Casab, who claimed to own the derelict facility, after Casab sued him.
Money derived from the sale of the work will go to increasing artists' space at the gallery, Goines said.
"Right now, we've got 30 artists in residence. If we could make that 60, that would be phenomenal."

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2012 -- Progress toward developing an alternative to organ transplantations in which doctors could actually grow a new heart or liver for a patient is among the topics in the 2012 premier of a popular video series from the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world's largest scientific society. The videos are available at www.acs.org/PrizedScience and on DVD.
Titled Prized Science: How the Science Behind American Chemical Society Awards Impacts Your Life, the first episode of the 2012 series features the research of Dr. Robert Langer, winner of the 2012 ACS Priestley Medal. He is a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The Priestley Medal is the highest honor of the ACS, and it recognizes Langer's pioneering work making body tissues in the lab by growing cells on special pieces of plastic. Langer's team has used the approach to make skin for burn patients, for instance, with the goal of eventually making whole organs for transplantation.
Next in the 2012 launch is an episode of Prized Science featuring Dr. Chad Mirkin, winner of the 2012 ACS Award for Creative Invention. The video explains how Mirkin's research has provided patients with faster diagnoses for influenza and other respiratory infections, and new tests that improve care for heart disease.
Upcoming episodes feature:
- Vicki Grassian, Ph.D.: ACS Award for Creative Advances in Environmental Science and Technology
- Diane Bunce, Ph.D.: George C. Pimentel Award in Chemical Education
- Peter Wolynes, Ph.D.: ACS Award in Theoretical Chemistry
ACS encourages educators, schools, museums, science centers, news organizations and others to embed links to Prized Science on their websites. The videos discuss scientific research in non-technical language for general audiences. New episodes in the series, which focuses on ACS' 2012 national award recipients, will be issued periodically.
The 2012 edition of Prized Science is completely refreshed, with a new look and feel, with renowned scientists telling the story of their own research and its impact and potential impact on everyday life. Colorful graphics and images visually explain the award recipient's research.
The ACS administers more than 60 national awards to honor accomplishments in chemistry and service to chemistry. The nomination process involves submission of forms, with winners selected by a committee consisting of ACS members who typically are technical experts in the nominee's specific field of research.
The American Chemical Society is a nonprofit organization chartered by the U.S. Congress. With more than 164,000 members, ACS is the world's largest scientific society and a global leader in providing access to chemistry-related research through its multiple databases, peer-reviewed journals and scientific conferences.

Best Airports for a Layover – Lufthansa First Class Terminal, Frankfurt
Designed by Frankfurt architects Hollin & Radoske in a former Frankfurt Airport parking lot, the €30 million, two-story structure is an beautiful appointed space awash in hand-tufted woollen carpets and bespoke designer fixtures. It's available only to first class passengers or Lufthansa's elite frequent fliers. Russet shades from B & B Italia, meantime, dull the daylight filtering into the cigar lounge, where some 36 single-malt Irish whiskeys are on offer. Boarding is unlike that at any terminal: it's done via a chauffeured Mercedes S-Class or Porsche Cayenne that will elegantly whisk guests plane-side.

Homework is an integral and important part of a child's education. The assignment of homework is based on the following principles:
- Homework assists students in improving their academic skills.
- Homework assists students in the development of study skills.
- Homework reinforces the ideas and concepts presented in class and is based on the goals and objectives of the curriculum.
- Homework involves parents/guardians in their child's education and helps them to monitor progress. Homework helps students develop values, such as: responsibility, independence, time management and perseverance.
Homework is mostly issued on a week by week basis. The homework on Education City should be available over a two week period; if your child has issues accessing it, the ICT suite is available during lunchtimes. Children can also use the Play Live facility to compete against other children in a safe on-line environment. Please contact your child's class-teacher if you require any assistance.
Children are also expected to read daily and practice their times-tables and number bonds. All children are invited to participate in the termly homework project.

Here's the pattern I've picked out in the hopes that it will lend itself well to using up old clothes and scraps from other projects.
Then the neckband. A strip of fabric is made into a tube by sewing the two ends together. It's pressed then turned right side out.
Next the sleeves are set in,
Now for the pants, front and back seams first.
As You Like It Challenge - Favourite Colour
I tend to graduate towards deep jewel colours, purple being my favourite. It's feminine without being girly, dark without being depressing and bright without being overpowering.
I swear I bought this purple striped fabric because it was an awesome bargain roll end, how can I be held responsible if the awesome bargains just tend to be purple?

There's no great secret about what makes Sunrise Senior Living so different from ordinary care and nursing homes.
Quite simply, everything we do is based on a very clear mission: to champion quality of life for all older adults. It's a mission that is every bit as relevant today as it has always been.
What does this mean in practice? We believe that no two people are exactly alike and that no two residents need precisely the same service. Our person-centred approach enables Sunrise residents to maintain independence and dignity, even as their individual needs change.
It was back in 1981 that the very first Sunrise opened its doors, founded by Paul and Terry Klaassen. Since then, our approach to providing the best possible lifestyle for each resident – based on individual preferences and needs - has remained unchanged.
You can see the Sunrise difference in the way that residents bring their own treasured items to add their personal sense of style to their suites. You can see it in our community pets, freshly cut flowers and space for both residents and visitors to catch up in our bistro and restaurant. These are all Sunrise 'Signatures' that make Sunrise a home from home.
You can taste the difference at Sunrise, too. All our food is designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of older adults. Our chefs use fresh, tasty ingredients in traditional, favourite recipes. As a result, Sunrise's Assisted Living, Independent Living, Dementia Care and Respite Care residents all enjoy three delicious, well-balanced meals each day, as well as a variety of menu choices and snacks throughout the day.
Come and experience the Sunrise Life for yourself at any of our 25 locations nationwide.

*Our most popular baby equipment rental bundle*
Sturdy, wooden crib with non-drop sides. JPMA certified, fully compliant with all current CPSC safety standards, and certified as an ASTM 2710 commercial crib. We set up and make up the crib for you at your equipment delivery destination!
Posted by Mack on 22nd Jun 2017
What a pleasure to work with Ben and company. Arrival and pick up times were on schedule.
The crib, highchair and stroller were clean and ready to go. This business is a blessing for grandparents and parents. So wonderful not to have to pack and haul all the equipment. I highly recommend the company for your child's equipment needs.

I heard of this company through Seaside rentals in York beach Maine. They were on time for delivery and pick up. The equipment was clean and excellent condition. I would highly recommend them
Posted by Joanne on 18th Aug 2015
This was our second year renting baby equipment from Ciao Baby Rentals. Both years the delivery and pick up was prompt and the crib, high chair and stroller were just what we needed. The equipment was clean and in working order. The crib even came with a mattress cover and sheet. The stroller was perfect for trips into Kennebunkport or to the beach. I would highly recommend this company for your baby equipment needs.
Posted by Joanne on 27th Aug 2014
I rented this package for our week's vacation in Kennebunk . All items were of high quality and clean. The owners of Ciao Baby delivered the items on time and answered any questions I had promptly. I would definitely rent from this company again.


text: I just succeeded in blowing away my spooled mail, so no longer have what was in this thread (yes, I can look at the mailman-users archives). Thankyew Thunderbird, which linked to my local spool instead of the external one it was supposed to. Getting back to the salient points: If the htdig access ever actually worked in the private directory, I can't confirm reliably. Inputs from my listers aren't sufficiently accurate for me to work with (this would be the third case where some of them thought it was working and it wasn't). The error log indicates failures from the time that the archives and htdig data base were built, and are in sufficient quantity that I believe that this problem has existed since I brought them on line. I have checked the problem with a Firefox 220.127.116.11, a late Mozilla build and Netscape 4.78) ancient, but it's the Solaris 9 default). The Apache is 1.13.34 (Solaris 9 build). There is a later version in the Solaris 9 patch cluster, but I am not going to run patching on this box until I can finish building the Mailman installation on another box and switch over. I doubt that this is an Apache problem. The httpd.conf on this site is "right out of the Mailman install guide." I am not using https, and all of the mailman stuff is in one directory tree without symbolic links. Default URL in mm_cfg.py is for the DNS domain being used, and I ran withlist/fix_url to point to that domain before going on-line. Running with Firefox, I cleared the cache and all cookies, then retested as a user, going from the listinfo page. This URL is: http://www.mercedeslist.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes The archives page is: http://www.mercedeslist.com/mailman/private/mercedes/ As I have said, that directory tree is all in one place on one filesystem. Running as a user, after having assured that Firefox is "cold" (cache cleared, one cookie present), I can get an article to display through htdig by filling in either the account name or the password. Both are not needed. However, for the user account, the name or password has to be correct. If one of the two fields is correct, bogus information in the other does not prevent access. However, in true user state, one field has to be correct. The cookie held by the browser does not go away, and does not appear to be altered. It is valid for authorization to go to the options field without having to revalidate.

Simple Rice Vegetable Recipe
To get my kids to eat their vegetables I have to be sneaky. They aren't fond of most veggies unless they are cooked into something. I've learned that in order to get my entire family eating right I have to plan out healthier snacks and mini-meals for the day. I took the things my family loves and incorporated it into a quick meal we can easily make after a little pre-prep. This Rice Vegetable Recipe has quickly become one of our families favorite mini-meal and side dishes.
What I love about this Rice Vegetable Recipe is that we can add what we have on hand. By far our favorite way to make this simple rice vegetable dish is with asparagus, broccoli and mushrooms.
Rice Vegetable Recipe ingredients:
Minute rice (individual 60 second cups) we prefer white rice
Fresh broccoli – chopped
Button mushrooms – sliced
Asparagus – spears removed and chopped
Teriyaki sauce
1/4 stick butter
Heat 1 tablespoon butter at medium-high in a skillet. Add asparagus and broccoli and saute, stirring occasionally. Careful not to let them brown. Once broccoli and asparagus soften and turn bright green. Add in another tablespoon of butter and add in mushroom slices. Stir occasionally until veggies are all cooked, but not browned. Add in teriyaki sauce to taste.
Keep sauteed vegetables in a container and use in portions to add to individual rice cups. These are great for hungry kids who need a mini meal or side dish. They are also perfect for my husband and I. We are very careful about portion control meals. The individual cups helps us not to over eat.
Add a portion of the vegetables to an individual white rice cup and you have a simple Rice Vegetable Recipe.
Minute® Ready to Serve Rice is an ideal portable solution for lunch or breakfast because you can eat it on the go, straight from the cup. In just 60 seconds, you have fully cooked rice for any meal or snack. You'll never get bored with your lunch since there are 10 flavorful and wholesome varieties. If you're looking for a healthy option, Minute® Ready to Serve Rice provides easy portion control since it's conveniently packaged in two individual single-serve cups. – See more at: http://www.thesitsgirls.com/minute-ready-to-serve-rice/#sthash.obPFypVY.dpuf

Remember Me
One more thing to say about Level 20: The lesson you learn in the Entrance Room to progress is used throughout this level, so keep an eye out! 8)
Funny thing you should mention that! I'm actually in the process of converting what I had into Word docs; the slow procedure of combining the text with the proper picture. I'm breaking them down into sections because the file gets large with that many pics.
PDF is the next step after that; along with playing Morgan into Ormar. It's a project I sort of let go for a long time... looks like I best get with it!
I would like to upload them here, but don't know how to do that. This place is pretty quiet execpt for the Bots that is. If you know, or have some contact info for Mithrandir, let me know! 8)
Hey there Foucter. I was wondering if I could get some help on a few things. I've been trying to work my way through the same few puzzles for a while now and can't really make any headway.
I've gotten stuck on the Labyrinth of Solitude. I've reached the Blue Master's Room, found one periodically flashing plate, and 3 pieces of quest-related jewellery. I've tried multiple combinations of items on that plate, with no success. I can't for the life of me work out what to do next.
On a less important note, I've gotten completely stuck on a 3 rings riddle. "In the place of the Hidden, use the Light to find what was written". Part of me is convinced it has something to do with the Labyrinth of Solitude, but after trying multiple sources of light in different areas, nothing happened. I don't think I've found the right area yet at all.
I've had excellent fun with the quest so far. If you could just point me in the general direction it'd be much appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks for the help with the Labyrinth of Solitude. I was sure that the puzzle had something to do with the placement of those Blue corners, or a missing quest item. I doubt that I would have been able to solve it without help.
Unfortunately, the well on Level 3 doesn't seem to be the solution to the riddle. I used both types of torches on it, and attacked it with both types of torches as well, using both types of hand.
The Repository might be the answer, as it fits with being "Hidden", and contains writing which is revealed. But I can't help but think that the 3 Rings Quest operates independently from any other major secret in the game, so that idea is probably wrong. (oh dear, I've resorted to thinking about the constraints that the quest operates in, rather then the quest itself) Maybe the Chambers of Knowledge? Hmn. The trouble is, I haven't really found a quest location yet that is definitively the "Hidden" place with a capital H. That capital has something to do with it, I'm sure.
Ah well. Thanks for the help anyway, especially with the Labyrinth of Solitude. Much appreciated.
OK, I did some digging, and I found the riddle site. It's in the Ancient Clearing in Marghor, the one where it was raining, and you used the filaments to recover the Crystal of Nobilty. Like before, when you used the Trusyt Torch make the hidden objects appear, as in the door, statues and pedestals; use it again to find a scroll along the inside eastern wall. The place of the "hidden". Perhaps I shouldn't have capitalized it. That should get you going! 8)
Well, I can definitely say that I got going after that riddle. After finding that scroll and starting the riddles for the third ring, I took down 3 riddles and swiped 3 rings in what felt like as many minutes! I can definitely say, that every frustration I had trying to solve that "place of the Hidden" riddle immediately reversed when I sunk my teeth into sweet, sweet victory. (and let me tell you, Elmeric is not getting a-hold of these, oh no)
(in case any explanation is in order, I was lucky enough to have opened the chamber earlier, and to have gotten all my riddles after the Ancient Clearing riddle in the same general location)
If my memory of the old Clue/Hint guide serves me correctly, the only secrets left to find are the: Crypt of Forgotten Kings, and the Medallion of Arachnes. I'm mostly though the Arachnes section (I think), and haven't found any leads as the to latter. Who knows, maybe I'll even be able to find a secret entirely by myself this time.
Which brings me to a small suggestion: Instead of starting off making a document of the full walkthrough, it might be easier making a document of the Clue/Hint guide first, and perhaps doing the full walkthrough later on instead. I appreciate the effort gone into making the full walkthrough (I wouldn't have seen nearly as much as your wonderful take on Uma if you hadn't), but the smaller size of the Clue/Hint guide coupled with the fact that it is a more general resource of information would make it much more useful in the short-to-medium term. (and I suppose it has to be said, I am a bit biased in the matter of needing assistance)
In any case, thank you very much for your help, both recently, and all the notes dotted about past posts which I have silently read. Most appreciated.
I'd say the whole goodbye sequence too, but somehow I don't think my 'contribution' to this Q+A thread is anywhere near it's conclusion...
Actually... I did start with a Clue/Hint Guide first, which didn't make it over to this site. Only a portion of the Walkthrough made it. Considering that I starting the Avenger way back when the interest in the game was hot, and by the time I finished it 8 years later, that interest and people had disappeared; I decided after making the complete Clue/Hint Guide, the time for secrets was gone. There was no one left to play it. If anything, it was to prove to myself that I could start something this massive... and finish it! There were many others back then who didn't. I am gratified that you are playing, and enjoying the Avenger! I put as much into it as I could, and I didn't make it easy. The original game was easy. I do keep an eye here, so continue to ask for help if you need it. I may have pull out my notes, like the "hidden" thing, but I'll get you an answer! 8)
Well, once again I've gotten stuck. The funny thing about Ormar is that I always seem to get majorly stuck at least once per dungeon level, while doing much better at anything that isn't the main quest: I've worked out how to use the Medallion of Arachnes, (which was the only bit on that questline which I wasn't able to work out) and I've found and explored the Crypt of Forgotten Kings. That tidies all the secrets up nicely for me, but the main questline has stalled.I'm getting quite reliable at that. (but hey, with the quality of these rewards I'm not complaining!)I've opened up the sealed chambers of Odoni and Ithanes, and found the next item to be placed on the pedestals in the Summoning Forest, but not the next RingKey. I've found a Blood Gem, a quest-item marked bow, a plaque on the wall in the Odoni-Ment junction, and 3 Odoni coffins which can still be highlighted long after they have been opened. Somewhere in the Crypts next to Tilithvir (Z-something) was a chest that was empty (I searched the ground and tried detection to double check), and that's about it that I found.
I've tried several things, such as trying to place quest items near sealed doorways and on the Odoni coffins, running around with the Trusyt torch, etcetera. I've checked every wall and pillar for any more of those buttons, but I've found nothing related to the main quest. I haven't found the left and right eyes mentioned by the Blood Gem, nor have I found the greatest light mentioned by the plaque on the wall.
Anything to get me stepping in the right direction again would be much appreciated.
And hey, my wish of finding a secret all by myself (Crypt of Forgotten Kings) came true!
>Well, once again I've gotten stuck.

> I've found and explored the Crypt of Forgotten Kings. That tidies all the secrets up nicely for me, but the main questline has stalled.
Did you now?! The hidden Chamber of Kings on Level 22? Really?!!!
>I'm getting quite reliable at that. (but hey, with the quality of these rewards I'm not complaining!) >I've opened up the sealed chambers of Odoni and Ithanes, and found the next item to be placed on the pedestals in the Summoning Forest, but not the next RingKey.
As a heads up, there are actually 8 different places the RingKey could be, and all of them are very well placed. Here are some hints: under an urn(single and double click), some deep water, on the floor, with some bones, on some pointy things, and with a wall decoration.
> I've found a Blood Gem, a quest-item marked bow
I actually had completely forgotten about the Blood Crystal, and had to load the Editor to find out what it was. This gem and its accompanying parchment will apply in the lowest level of these dungeons. The bow, if its Farukin's Bow, is needed down below. Like the Bow, hopefully you have already recovered a blue blade from the Knight's Chambers?
> a plaque on the wall in the Odoni-Ment junction
Mentions a greatest light… you haven't noticed a single torch in the nearby Metanrith area that is too bright?
> 3 Odoni coffins which can still be highlighted long after they have been opened.
Yeah. They're used in one the random item placements. Apparently the machine wasn't coded to go dead if it was not being used.
>Somewhere in the Crypts next to Tilithvir (Z-something) was a chest that was empty (I searched the ground and tried detection to double check), and that's about it that I found.
I checked the machines in that area, and if I'm following my programming correctly… after you opened the chest, several skeletons should have spawned from the sarcophagi behind you. One of those skeletons should have had the next RingKey! I hope you find it!!!
>And hey, my wish of finding a secret all by myself (Crypt of Forgotten Kings) came true!

I'm glad to see that Elevation Labs has prepared a lightning connector adapter for the Elevation Dock, because I'm still happily using mine, and I'd probably like to keep using it for my next iPhone, as well. The adapter costs $15 before shipping, comes with all the tools you'll need to screw it in, and should be ready to ship in about three weeks time. The one thing to keep in mind is that you'll still need to supply your own Lightning cable – all you're buying from Elevation Labs is a fixture for the cable.
Then again, if you're more of a DIY type, take a look at this post about a 3D Printed Lightning adapter from Shawn Blanc.
